The Whiting Owls Club: 91 Percent Fought for their Country
By John Hmurovic
July 2018
One hundred years ago, 589 men from Whiting-Robertsdale uprooted their lives to help their country. America was in a World War, and the people who lived here wanted to help. The men who left to join the military came from all parts of the community, but one group, the Owls Club, stood out. The reason: Of the 100 members of the club, 91 signed up for the fight.
Ninety-one percent is an impressive number, but the Owls Club was an impressive group of men. Its list of founders, all young men in the early stages of their careers at the time, reads like a Who's Who in the history of Whiting and the Standard Oil Company. The first president of the club, William Rheem, went on to become president of Standard Oil of California. Its first vice-president, William Burton, later became president of Standard Oil of Indiana. Board members E.M. Clark and William Barstow became refinery managers, as did William Warwick, who also served as Whiting's first mayor. And that's only part of the list.
The Owls Club was formed in 1893, when Whiting was little more than a few homes, a few businesses, a refinery, railroad tracks and lots of sand and swamps. For the young men who Standard Oil hired to run its new refinery, Whiting was a boring place to live. So, they formed a club.
The Owls Club was a social and athletic organization. After a few years of meeting at other locations in town, they built their own clubhouse at 119th and Pennsylvania, today the location of the Elks Club. In their clubhouse they had boxing, wrestling and other games and sports. Their billiard tables were popular. Jacob Schaefer once played there. He was the best billiards player in the world in the late 1800s. The club also brought in bands, orchestras, singers, comedians and speakers. They were known for their minstrel shows and their dances, particularly the New Year's Eve dance. The dances were popular social events for Whiting's early 20th century "elite."
They also had a baseball team, but it was their basketball team which won the Owls Club many honors. The Owls were one of the best in the region. They took on and beat college teams, like the University of Chicago, Wheaton College and Hope College. They played all comers, such as a team from Chicago's Hull House, and the Tin Mill at U.S. Steel in Gary. They usually won, and when a team of New York professionals toured the Midwest in 1915, the Owls were one of Middle America's best hope of defeating them. The New York Nationals, including future basketball hall-of-famer Elmer Ripley, crushed the Owls 107 to 40…which was actually better than most of the other teams in the Midwest fared.
The Owls won a state championship in 1918, playing before a packed house inside Whiting's Slovensky Dom. Back in those days, though, the rules must have been fairly lax on who could join a team. Because for that 1918 championship game, two players from the Great Lakes Naval Academy team were recruited to play. One of them, who donned the Whiting Owls uniform, was George Halas, who went on to become the founder of the Chicago Bears and a legend in football history.
Even as that game was being played, the membership of the Owls was in decline due to the war. By July of 1918, 68 club members were in the service of their country. By time the number of Owls Club members in the service reached 91, the club was in danger of folding. But former members rejoined to keep the club alive.
While their friends served overseas, those left behind turned the Owls clubhouse into a center for war preparedness. National Guard members had been called into active military duty during the war, so the Liberty Guard formed to provide a militia for use in state emergencies. The Liberty Guard of Whiting used the Owls clubhouse for their drills. The club also published at least three issues of a news magazine which it set to Whiting-Robertsdale soldiers overseas, including non-members. The publication gave the soldiers news from home, and about other Whiting-Robertsdale men serving their country.
Whiting-Robertsdale lost 14 men in World War One. The Owls Club lost two. One was James Dillon, who actually lived in Chicago, not Whiting-Robertsdale. Dillon was a basketball playing member of the club, He died of influenza in the final days of the war. Frank Girard was the other Owls Club casualty. He was gassed at the Battle of St. Quentin Canal, and died of pneumonia while at a hospital in France.
Girard and Dillion made the ultimate sacrifice for their country, but all of the Owls Club members made Whiting proud. As one local newspaper put it in 1919: "The number of ordinary, everyday lads who spent their odd hours in the environment of this club and then when the crucial test came, the call to arms to support their country, turned out practically en masse to lay their lives on the sacred altar, is proof in plenty of the value of such an organization. No such record has been made in all America, and in the far countries where the battles for freedom were fought, the knowledge of this fact elicits wonder and praise whenever it is divulged."
The Owls Club remained a part of the Whiting-Robertsdale community until the mid-1930s.

Over half a century ago, in 1955, the British governor of Kenya, speaking during the infamous Mau Mau uprising, pleaded with all concerned to appreciate the enlightened project that was his Empire's burden: "The task we have set ourselves is to civilize a great mass of human beings who are in a very primitive moral and social state." About a decade earlier, his predecessor Philip Mitchell had outlined this duty in starker terms still: "The African has the choice of remaining a savage or of adopting our civilization, culture, religion and language." (Incidentally, both were eventually knighted.) Blinded by an unshakable conviction in their own tradition's superiority, it mattered little to these administrators that numbers, facts, and figures told a very different story about barbarity and civilization in almost-independent Kenya.
Against the colonial myths that the Mau Mau epitomized intrinsically "African" savagery, history makes clear systematic British inhumanity. Even though the rebels were responsible for the deaths of almost 2,000 locals enlisted in the colonial cause, more than 10,000 Kenyans were killed by the British, with some estimates running much, much higher (in contrast, only 90 Europeans were murdered by the rebels). The British ran infamous concentration camps, assisted actively by their (civilian) settlers, one of whom described his role in the interrogation process as follows: "Things got a little out of hand. By the time I cut his balls off, he had no ears, and his eyeball, the right one, I think, was hanging out of its socket. Too bad, he died before we got much out of him."
Much like the British in colonial Kenya, this country's present-day administration has presided over a similarly stupefying self-righteousness in Iraq. Despite the intervening half-century, in which the great powers were supposed to have outgrown colonial pretence, the barbarity of the 'civilizing mission' makes itself apparent in Iraq today. And no episodes in the four and a half years of occupation better demonstrate this than the brutality of the two sieges of the city of Fallujah in 2004.
The first of the two operations began on April 4, concocted hastily by senior administration officials as a knee-jerk response to the murders of four Blackwater employees in Fallujah a few days earlier. Mainstream media here had alluded to the viciousness of the people involved in that crime, speaking of "a barbaric orgy," "an act of savagery," and "sheer bestial violence." In a not-so-precise way, the people of Fallujah were implicated; the event was intentionally left inexplicable, attributable only to the excesses of an angry Arab mob.
What came after, Operation Vigilant Resolve, followed logically from the bigotry of this diagnosis. All of "them" just couldn't matter as much as "us." And thus, after roughly a week of furious and sustained military activity, reports were emerging that "over 600 Iraqis ha[d] been killed by American aggression, and the residents ha[d] turned two football fields into graveyards." While no undisputed account of the details of the devastation exists, doctors working on the ground were seething with rage: One claimed that "not less than 60 percent of the dead were women and children. You can go see the graves yourself." Another condemned the operation as a "massacre."
In violation of international conventions safeguarding the rights of civilians in conflict, the U.S. military made assistance to the wounded virtually impossible. Aside from sealing off a major hospital, American snipers targeted ambulances, maintaining that they carried insurgents. Of course, shootings of ambulances transporting only civilians and doctors were reported regularly. When the Iraqi Minister of Health conveyed his outrage over the policy to Paul Bremer, the then-head of the coalition efforts did not deny, but actually defended, the strategy. As the journalist Dahr Jamail has argued, this constitutes an endorsement of "the very definition of collective punishment."
Not six months later in November 2004, after this first siege had failed, the US attacked again. American Lt. Col. Gary Brandl set the scene, invoking the holiness of the coalition's efforts in epic fashion: "The enemy has got a face. He's called Satan. He's in Fallujah. And we're going to destroy him."
And what destruction it was. The head of the city's compensation commission estimated that Operation Phantom Fury destroyed roughly 70 percent of the city's buildings. Allegations that the US used white phosphorous as a chemical weapon surfaced soon after. While officials initially denied that the shells were used in an illegal way (according to international law, white phosphorous can be used to illuminate terrain, but not against individuals), they were forced to modify their position a year later when a military magazine revealed that troops had used it to "flush out" insurgents. And, of course, the estimated death tolls were extraordinary: According to Iraqi NGOs and medical workers, up to 6,000 Iraqis perished, again mostly civilians.
As we remember the anniversary of this madness, then, it will not be enough simply to register our disgust. In the face of the gross depravity of this country's imperial presence in Iraq, we have to be prepared to assert actively our wholesale opposition. Sentiments must become convictions; inklings must become arguments. To the pessimists among us, Joan Baez said it best: "Action is the antidote to despair." Let us make sure that this anniversary also marks the beginning of the end.

Tagged: C.C. Sabathia
"I Guess I'd Go No Periods"
Yes, dear readers, the pitcher formerly known as C.C. Sabathia is now to be known only as CC Sabathia, which is really just the same name sans those pesky little periods — the same things my sisters have been whining and complaining about for years.
Look, C.C. — er, I mean, CC, I get it… all those punctuating periods, dots, bumps in the road… they get in the way. They put a damper on things. I feel your pain. But if you're going to all of the sudden change the way your name is presented in print worldwide couldn't you be a little more emphatic about it than simply saying:
"I guess I'd go no periods."
That doesn't sound like you mean it, C.C. And because you don't sound like you mean it, I'm not changing a damn thing. You will forever be C.C. to me — with periods. Consider me cramping your style, Mr. Sabathia. (That was a big friggin' cheesy pun and I take complete ownership of that).
*Note to the uneducated: periods are necessary to indicate stopping points.
When I look at CC, what do I see? Two consonants begging for a vowel. Take heej and beej for example. Without a period between HJ and BJ, you get a couple of awfully funny sounding euphemisms for things I don't want my mother to know about. Do you see, C.C.? Do you see what you're doing?
What would E.E. Cummings be without periods? Eeeeeeeeeeeeee. Gross.
When the news first broke a couple of days ago, I chuckled away the thought that people would actually pay attention to this minor detail of an otherwise blockbuster of a story (the trade between the Indians and the Brewers). Why did it matter? Why did Sabathia wait until leaving Cleveland to make this monumental name change? Honestly, I thought this would just disappear into a series of tubes…
Alas, no! Dear reader, we live in tumultuously technocratic times and I'm here to tell you that an hour after the story broke, even the mighty Wikipedia had fallen under C.C.'s spell.
But I am no dummy. The older I get, the wiser I become. Today I am able to admit my shortcomings and tell of a time when my cavalier spirit got the best of me: having fallen a slave to the many conjurations of my own aura, I legally changed my name from "Jeff" to "Jefff" fanatically crying out to the world that the last "F" was indeed silent.
No one got it.
And in what I thought was an enchantingly austere state of dignity and self-worth brought on by my my bold name change alone, I ran myself directly into the ground until one day I woke up under a Las Vegas overpass with no shirt on, covered in unidentifiable cuts and bruises, reeking of Tanqueray, vomit and Marlboro Lights, my possessions consisting of two dimes, a nickel and three pennies.
So, take it from me, stick with C.C., C.C.
And don't hate me 'cuz I'm right.
Ah, yes, we humans can be quite the dreamers sometimes. I know I can. I won't tell you about my most recent dream (believe me, you'd thank me if you could) but I would like to take the time to call out others on their misconstrued fantasies regarding the happenings in the world. On this day in particular — as is usually the case — there is no shortage of ridiculous thoughts, imaginations and pipedreams circulating the baseball-politico world.
Thankfully, these make-believe ideas have not breached the walls of my psyche. It hasn't been easy staving off the onslaught of fans seeking a glimpse of glory, but I'm proud to say that, for this night, I've evaded the paparazzi, locked the doors and shut all the windows. I am safe. And as a stand-up man who speaks for intelligent US Americans around the globe, let me begin by saying that it is a complete pipedream that…
The MLB All-Star Game Is Anything But a Popularity Contest
I know, I know… same story, different year. Seriously though? If "this time it counts" continues to be the theme, the goal, the prize, then why leave it up to a bunch of numbnuts (the American Public — yeah, I said it; they voted for Dubya twice) to decide who should start this pivotal game? How do we do it? Here's how: don't let Yankees and Red Sox fans vote. And Florida — the entire state of Florida should not be able to vote… just for fun and because they kind of deserve that punishment. If I'm Terry Francona, and I have even a remote chance of managing in the World Series, I want Jermaine Dye on my team.
It is also an absolute pipedream that…
John McCain Could Balance the Budget By the End of His First Term
This is actually two pipedreams: 1) that he could indeed balance the budget and 2) that he would ever have a first term. Here's the thing, how are we US Americans supposed to believe we could balance the budget by pouring more money, more resources, more troops into Iraq for another 100 years? We've already spent over 500 billion dollars in Iraq since 2002 and lost over 4,000 service men and women. How high will that number go over the next 100 years? And how would we do it when Maliki & Co. want us OUT!?!
Speaking of lunacy, it is also a complete pipedream that…
Rich Harden Will Bring the Cubs a World Series Championship
I know you guys want to believe it. I know you do. You won't shut up about it. You pretend that the Cardinals aren't right on your tails. You pretend the Southsiders don't exist. You actually believe that "this is your year". Well, it ain't. And this so-called blockbluster trade proves it. Let me tell ya something: Billy Beane doesn't trade away a guy unless there's something wrong with him (see Mark Mulder, Tim Hudson, Barry Zito). There's something wrong with Harden. I don't know what it is yet; but I will. I hear that there is a very strong possibility that it involves a goat.
So yeah… it is also an absolute pipedream that…
Obamacons Actually Exist
Like Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and a sober Amy Winehouse, these dreamed-up conservative supporters of Barack Obama aren't real. Hallmark is busy making up a holiday for them to star in.
Yes. It's true. And it is also a complete pipedream that…
Alex Rodriquez Will Ever Stay Out of the Tabloids
He's the best there is at what he does. He's good looking. He's into Kabbalah. That's really all I have to say about that. This is just an excuse to post his picture. I don't know if you, dear reader, are aware, but RSBS has quite a diverse following: whites, blacks, men, women, Chinese, Japanese and yes, even gays. In fact, I have been pestered by the homosexual community to post more pictures of A-Rod and other cute guys. So here you go, fellas:
And so it goes that it is also an absolute pipedream that…
Barack Obama Is a Flip-Flopper
Just not true. I know, I know… the Republicans have used this strategy before with much success (see John Kerry, Al Gore) so it makes perfect sense why they would pull it out again; however, this is Barack Obama we're talking about here. It has been his position since the beginning of the campaign to begin a controlled withdrawal of combat brigades in Iraq. To all you flip-flop-mongering hope-squashing old-hat-wearing Republicans, here's a great big RSBS EAT IT!
While you're eating it, please know that it is also an absolute pipedream that…
Kosuke Fukodome Should Be a Starter In the All-Star Game
Soto? Yes. Soriano? Yeah, sure. Fine. Fukudome? No. And here's why: his line isn't nearly as good as those who got snubbed completely. Compare his line against those of Corey Hart, Rick Ankiel, Aaron Rowand. I find it very ironic that a fan base that used racial slurs and stereotypes to "welcome" their foreign star stumped the voting booths to make him a starter. So is the way of the Cub fan…
And let me tell ya, it is
also a complete pipedream that…
Anyone Will Care About What John McCain Has to Say at the Republican Convention When the 'Skins Battle the Giants in an Exciting NFL Opening Night Showdown!
Are you ready for some football?!?
And if that doesn't get you excited, let me inform you that it's also a complete pipedream that…
This Randy Johnson Destroying a Bird with a Baseball Video Will Ever Get Old
And really folks, I know it's an absolute pipedream that…
I'm Anywhere Close to Being Angelic
However, pictures don't lie and this random shot taken of me in the wee hours of the July 4th morning clearly shows illuminated wings protruding from my back. Say what you will about it, but I'm pretty convinced that I have the whole Michael Landon Highway To Heaven thing goin' on here.
By the way, the tough guy in the lower left is my Turkish bodyguard Omar; so don't hate me 'cuz I'm right or I'll tell him where you live.

I grew up in rural Southwest Virginia and began playing piano and percussion in the sixth grade. I loved music so much I wanted to try all the instruments. I began playing flute, trumpet, oboe, sax, piano and even a little violin, but the only one that I really stuck with was flute.
In college I continued my love for music, even when I decided to study computer science. At that time I was attending Brigham Young University and played percussion with the world renowned BYU Philharmonic Orchestra. After not fitting in with the computer science crowd and transferring to a different school I came to realize music was my passion and I started all over to get a Bachelor's in music education from the University of Utah.
After moving to Austin, Texas I've been fortunate to play and teach piano and flute lessons in the Leander ISD area. I enjoy accompanying school choirs and musicals and taking on choir and band director roles when the teachers need to be out. I know that I teach with my passion for music in every lesson and I look forward to teaching at Northwest School of Music.
Today, Emil teaches piano and Austin flute lessons and tutoring at the Northwest School of Music for quality music lessons by University trained instructors for guitar lessons, piano lessons, voice lessons, drums, violin, ukulele, flute, clarinet, bass in Austin, Cedar Park, Texas.Back to Classes & Teachers>


text: I met this guy few years ago, but we started talking last summer after one festival.. We talked every single day, all day about EVERYTHING.. We got to know each other really well and we became really close after a few months.. We've been out a couple of times.. Then, around New Year, he told me he has feelings for me but I wasn't sure if my feelings were strong enough to get into a relationship with him and I let him know that, so we continued talking and ever since, my feelings for him were stronger so we got into a relationship.. It was good, he bought some presents, we went out and I felt nice but from the beginning it felt like we were just friends who would make out twice a week. I didn't feel like we were actually together, even though he was saying all the time how he fell for me hard, how he's in love with me, but I didn't feel it.. I knew he cared but I didn't feel what he was saying he feels.. We talked about that but nothing changed.. Eventually my feelings started to fade and after two months I broke up and it was on good terms.. We didn't fight, cry or anything like that, just calmly broke up.. Ever since (it's been a month) I have a feeling of regret, but it fades away after some time then comes back again and I'm worried if I made a mistake or I should've done this and just let myself to get over this.. He was my first boyfriend by the way.. Do you have any thoughts on this, maybe similar experiences to share, anything? Thanks :)

|Open lung ventilation in neurosurgery: an update on brain tissue oxygenation.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 16463830 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Recently, we showed the feasibility of ventilating neurosurgical patients with acute intracranial pathology and concomitant acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) according the so-called Open Lung approach. This technique consists of low tidal volume, elevated positive expiratory pressure (PEEP) level and initial recruitment maneuvers to open up collapsed alveoli. In this report, we focus on our experience to guide recruitment with brain tissue oxygenation (pbrO2) probes. We studied recruitment maneuvers in thirteen patients with ARDS and acute brain injury such as subarachnoid hemorrhage and traumatic brain injury. A pbrO2 probe was implanted in brain tissue at risk for hypoxia. Recruitment maneuvers were performed at an inspired oxygen frcation (FiO2) of 1.0 and a PEEP level of 30 40 cmH2O for 40 seconds. The mean FiO2 necessary for normoxemia could be decreased from 0.85 +/- 0.17 before recruitment to 0.55 +/- 0.12 after 24 hours, while mean PbrO2 (24.6 mmHg before recruitment) did not change. At a mean of 17 minutes after the first recruitment maneuver, PbrO2 showed peak a value of 35.6 +/- 16.6 mmHg, reflecting improvement in arterial oxygenation at an FiO2 of 1.0. Brain tissue oxygenation monitoring provides a useful adjunct to estimate the effects of recruitment maneuvers and ventilator settings in neurosurgical patients with acute lung injury.

Honoring an award winning farmer and his tomato through seed libraries
By Jeff Quattrone, Founder Library Seed Bank
May 27, 2019
Five years ago when I started my Library Seed Bank (LSB) project, I knew I was going to create the change I wanted to see in the world, and I was doing it on my terms. I never thought that I would part of a tomato farmer's legacy about a tomato that was bred in Gloucester County, NJ, which is the county I grew up in and learned how to grow tomatoes. When a story presents itself to you to be told, you should tell it.
One spring day in 2018, an email popped into my phone asking me if I ever heard of a tomato called the Kille #7. The sender was looking for information about it because her grandfather developed it, and she wanted to share her family's legacy with her daughter in the garden. She asked me if I could help her. Of course I would.
When I found out that her grandfather's farm was in the county where I grew up, where I launched LSB, and where I have six seed libraries with one more possible in 2019, I wanted to stand up and yell, "F*cking Aye", but I was at my day job in a cubical. So, I just stood up, and yelled it in my head.
Then, I became a man on a mission. I frantically checked my first source for tomato information, Tatiana's Tomatobase. I saw the Kille #7 listed there with a seed vendor, the Sandhill Preservation Center. Before I could jump out of my skin, I had to go to Sandhill's website, and see if seeds were available for 2018.
I got to Sandhill's website, and they had seeds for the 2018 season! At this point, I wanted to stand up, jump out of my skin and once again, yell "F*cking Aye!" but as stated above, I was at my day job in a cubicle. So, I just stood up. And sat right back down. And stood up again. I decided to stop doing that because I didn't want to look like a whack a mole.
I reply to the original email in all caps, which was not intended, that I found seeds, and asking my contact to call me. I typed in the wrong phone number. I was off by a digit in the area code because, well, I was trapped in a cubicle and I was about to burst with excitement.
My contact was able to figure my phone number out and called. We chatted on the phone, and I found out that Willard Bronson Kille, the farmer who developed the Kille #7 won a national farming award in 1925. The award was presented to him by the then governor of New York, Franklin Delano Roosevelt. It was all in a newspaper article that a copy would be sent to me.
The family has seed pouches with the Kille #7 stamped on them, but they didn't contain seeds. Now that they had a seed source, the growing legacy could continue. It would make a great story if it ended there. However, I'm a very curious person, and when my curiosity gets engaged, tenacity kicks in and I'm off. I love history. And tomatoes. History plus tomatoes equal my bliss.
I started with some preliminary research at the county historical society. I found a 2004 newspaper article about local crop history. As I was skimming it, there it was, a shout out to Willard B. Kille, his tomato experimental farm, and his most significant tomato, the Kille #7. The article said in the 1960s, the Kille #7 was a very popular tomato locally, and somewhat nationally. Again, I wanted to jump up and out my skin yelling "F*cking Aye," but I was in research library. So, I stood up and asked for a photo copy of the article instead.
The natural progression in my mind now was for a county proclamation. This tomato has to be declared an Gloucester County, NJ original heirloom tomato. Is that a natural progression of thought? Well, maybe not necessarily, but my alias is Tomato Quattrone.
I asked the mayor of a town that I'm active in what's the procedure for getting a proclamation about a tomato. She passed my message along to the county freeholder's office with a strong message of support of the community work that I do, especially with seeds.
I get a voice mail from the freeholder's office asking me to call them. I call right back and my contact there was introducing herself. She gave me the backstory about how this came to her and what the procedure was for a county proclamation. Then, is a polite tone, I hear 'Jeff, we don't do proclamations for tomatoes. We do them for people, but if you can get enough of history then we will see what we could do."
Success! This is a win. They were allowing me to make my case. My birthday was coming up. The historical society was going to be open on it, and what better way to celebrate it then researching the history of an accomplished farmer, his most successful tomato and his contribution to the county where I grew up in, all for the first proclamation about a tomato in Gloucester County, NJ.
By the end of that day of research I had 17 pages of history, (which happens to be my birthdate.) Included in the research was the award that Kille got from the state of NJ for being an outstanding farmer. In addition to his national award, I found out he was an active citizen in his local community and in the agriculture community. He has a great story.
I scanned it all, composed a PDF, and send it off. My contact from the freeholder's called to thank me for all the research, mentioned that she was impressed with the contributions that Kille made, and closed "… but we don't do proclamations for tomatoes."
Some time passed, and I got the voice mail, "Jeff, please call me." So I did, and I heard the news, they were going to issue a proclamation for Kille and his tomato! They were impressed with the history and the significance of Kille's contribution to the history of the county.
Now, the question was posed to me, "Where was the proclamation going the be read?" That was a very good question. In case you haven't picked it up, I was new to the proclamation game. I was trying to organize an event around tomatoes, but things were falling through. The weather here last summer was awful for tomatoes. The Kille #7 plants that I was growing in a Gloucester County, NJ community garden started out so strong, but they got hammered by the weather like the rest of the tomato crop. There was no event for the proclamation to be read.
The county offered to give me copies unread, again another step outside of protocol. They were great to work with on this. I asked for a copy to send to the family, and a copy for myself. What I didn't know was, I had my own WHEREAS in the proclamation, and not for pushing them to issue a proclamation for a tomato. It was for my work to get this tomato to her home soil, to provide a way for the residents to grow the local pride known as the Kille #7, and to honor Willard B. KIlle for his legacy. I was humbled to read that.
For someone who works to preserve local heirloom foods as an heirloom seed activist, having the opportunity to help a seed get back home is a gift and a dream come true. When it's to the county where you grew up in and where you learned to grow tomatoes, and where you launched you seed library project, that's divine.
In 2014, I brought the concept of seed libraries to the area of southern NJ where I live. The first two were in Gloucester County, the county where the Kille #7 was developed. I also work with Slow Food International to preserve local food biodiversity with the Ark of Taste project, and I'm a member of the Slow Food Seed Working Group.
There are now six seed libraries in Gloucester County, NJ. Recently, the Gloucester County Library system became the first county level library system southern NJ to have seed libraries. Until this happened, the seed libraries were at independent town libraries. Through a collaboration with the three seed libraries that were up and running in March 2019, and my LSB project, we're reintroduced the Kille #7 with a controlled grow out program. The goal is building a local and sustainable seed supply so the tomato and Willard B. Kille's legacy will live on, and never leave again.
To celebrate the fifth anniversary of my LSB project on March 2, 2019, the county proclamation was read in Woodbury, NJ, along with a city proclamation from Woodbury, which is the county seat of Gloucester County, NJ. It was Woodbury's mayor who I asked about the proclamation procedure. Woodbury is where I did my research at the county historical society, and is we started releasing the seeds for the growing program through the second seed library I set up.
In closing I'd like to say, "Welcome home Kille #7 may your legacy live on through the seeds we save, and here's to never leaving again."

produced in the economy. The price level is usually examined through a "basket of goods" approach, in which a collection of consumer-based goods and services are examined in aggregate; changes in the aggregate price over time will push the index measuring the basket of goods higher. Weighted averages are typically used rather than geometric means. Price indices that measure the changes of general price level in Sri Lanka are,
Colombo consumer price index Greater Colombo price index Whole sale price index Deflator of gross domestic product
Colombo consumer price index Colombo Consumers' Price Index - from January 1956 onwards: index numbers on base 1952=100 with the following percentage weights for the basket of goods, Food - 61.9 Clothing - 9.4 Fuel & light - 4.3 Rent - 5.7 Miscellaneous - 18.7 Greater Colombo price index The Greater Colombo Consumers' Price Index has a base January to June 1989 = 100 with the following percentage weights:
Food & Drink 69.3; Liquor, Tobacco & Betel and Areca nut 3.8; Housing 8.9; Fuel & Light 5.4; Clothing & Footwear 2.8; Personal Care and Health Services, Household goods & Services 4.9; Transport & Communication 2.8; Miscellaneous 2.1. Weights are based on the Labour Force and the Socio Economic Survey 1985/86 revalued at January - June 1989 prices. Whole sale price index The Wholesale Price Index has a base 2005 = 100. Wholesale price index refers to a mix of agricultural and industrial goods at various stages of production and distribution, including import duties. Deflator of gross domestic product An economic metric that accounts for inflation by converting output measured at current prices into constant-dollar GDP. The GDP deflator shows how much a change in the base year's GDP relies upon changes in the price level. This is also known as the "GDP implicit price deflator".
Inflation Inflation is the name given to an increase in the general price level. it is also refers to the decline in the purchasing power of money. Causes of Inflation 1. Demand-Pull Inflation
Inflation occurs when the aggregate demand rises and exceeds the aggregate supply at the current price level. When an economy is operating at full employment, an increase in aggregate demand will inevitably lead to inflation. Even though there is unemployment in the economy, if the aggregate demand increases faster than the output inflation might occur. Too much money may chase too few goods.
The demand increases in the following situations, (a) The percentage increase in the money supply is higher than the percentage increase in output. (b) Government borrowing from the banking system to finance budget deficits. (c) Credit expansion by the banks.(d) A sudden rise in export earning of foreign exchange earnings. (e) Inflation expectations.-Expectation of a further rise in the price level will increase the
present demand. 2. Cost-Push Inflation An increase in the costs of production will reduce the supply and cause a rise in the price level. (a) A rise in the prices of raw materials supplied by domestic sources. (b) Rising prices of inputs in foreign markets (higher oil prices).
(c) Depreciation of the currency which raises the prices of imported inputs. (d) Higher wages resulting from trade union activity.
3. Profit-Push Inflation In markets where monopoly power exists (monopoly and oligopoly) firms are able to raise the prices of their products in order to increase their profits. This is another supply side factor that causes inflation 4. Structural Inflation There are structural rigidities in the economies of less developed countries which make the supply inelastic. An increase in demand will not be matched by an increase in output. The price level rises even though there are unutilized resources. Other Types of inflation 1. Creeping Inflation This refers to mild inflation with an annual rate of about 5% or less. 2. Galloping Inflation and Hyper Inflation The inflation rate may rise to 3 digits or more. Hyper inflation causes a loss of confidence in the monetary system.3. Wage-Price Spiral
Rising price level which increases the cost of living encourages the workers to demand higher wages through their trade unions. Higher wages raise the costs of production and lead to a further rise in the price level.4. Anticipated (foreseen) inflation and Unanticipated (unforeseen) inflation
The effects of a foreseen inflation are not so serious as those of unforeseen inflation. Wage and price agreements can take account of the expected rise in prices. Most of the adverse effects of inflation occur when inflation is unexpected.
This is a slowing in the rate of inflation. Disinflation is used to describe instances when the inflation rate has reduced marginally over the short term Deflation
This is a general decline in prices, often caused by a reduction in the supply of money or credit. Deflation can be caused also by a decrease in government, personal or investment spending. The opposite of inflation, deflation has the side effect of increased unemployment since there is a lower level of demand in the economy, which can lead to an economic depression.
Effects of inflation Inflation affects individuals, firms, the government and the economy.1. Fixed income earners will suffer a loss of real income due to the fall in the purchasing
power of money. Furthermore the real value of their savings will decline. It will cause a reduction in their standard of living.
2. Debtors gain and creditors lose. If the inflation rate exceeds the nominal interest rate, the
prospective real return on investment. This might lower the level of investment and reduce the productive capacity of the economy.4. The redistributive effects of inflation increase disparities in income and wealth.
5. Effects on foreign trade inflation reduce the competitiveness of export. It makes imports relatively cheap. As a result there would be a fall in export earnings and an increase in the balance of payment deficit.6. The government might have to face problems of budgeting and planning due to inflation

I've been fooled and decieved by guys corny lines before, so I really don't know how i should take this one:
"It was only after I first e-mailed you that I noticed you weren't even in the same state as me--lots of cursing ensued. Then it turns out that you have an awesome personality, great sense of humor, and just so happen to be an anime chick! If I had my choice of having any girl as my special other, you'd be number one on my list. Honest to God"
Maybe you should let things go as they are for a while, keep talking to him but don't make any moves just yet. See how things go in a while, see what other signs may appear. Being too quick to make a move can be worse than doing nothing.
I dunno, sounds a little fishy to me...
But what if I wait too long and he's found someone else?
This guy out of his mind. Letter awfully badly written. "honest to God" oh puh-lease! Lets have him be honest to you first, no? He can judge your humour and like it, also that you like anime, he can know that. But can he know you? your personality? He not even know what shoes you wearing! What does he really know, about you, about love - about what it takes to love? Of course, not whole letter posted here, so FO can't make to much out of him. Still, it sound immature.

Dana Sota likes to be pushed outside of her comfort zone. She thrives in a challenging atmosphere and is excited to tackle the new adventure in her job as the Mobridge Area Chamber of Commerce executive director.
A 2010 graduate of Bowdle High School, Dana is glad to be back in the area after spending time in Fargo N.D., working at Bodyworks Physical Therapy.
She attended South Dakota State University for a couple of years, but it wasn't the right fit for her. Soto then decided on Lake Area Tech in Watertown.. She was pushed outside of her comfort zone at the school and with the support of the staff and her advisors, had a challenging three-month intern experience that lasted more than a year.
"They pushed me further than I ever thought I could be pushed," said Dana. "They told me to 'get comfortable with being uncomfortable,' and I had to."
Dana said she learned a lot in her internship and that going to Lake Area Tech was one of the best decisions in her life.
She moved back to this area and took the reins at the Chamber office last week. She and Catrick Swayze, a rescue cat ("We rescued each other") have settled into Mobridge and are looking forward to a new adventure.
Mobridge is not a new place to Dana as she has been involved with activities here since her high school days in Bowdle. She was raised by her grandparents, Alvin and Kathy Eisenbeisz, on the family farm after her mother, Sandy, died at a young age. She said she is related to about half the town of Bowdle and it is good to be closer to home.
Dana grew up hunting with her grandpa.
"Mostly pheasant and deer," she said. "I haven't got my first deer yet unless you count the one I got with my pickup when I was 15."
She is happy to be back in an area where outdoor opportunities are close at hand.
"In Fargo the hunting and fishing opportunities were not as good," said Dana. "I am excited to be living next to the water again."
Dana has been connected to the Dakota Radio Group since her high school sports and Future Farmers of America days in high school and worked with Dawn Konold on the Wild Dakota Girls calendar. She has helped with the Mobridge Tourism Committee annual ice fishing tourney and the Denny Plamer fishing tournament. She has also been involved with July 4 activities like Rockn' on the River.
As a Chamber director, she has set a plan of action.
"I want to get out more into the community," she said. "It costs business owners time and money to come here to talk with me. I want to be supportive to them and their businesses."
One of her goals is to bring more people into town for activities in Mobridge. That includes more opportunities for the people of Mobridge and the area that depends on Mobridge.
She and Catrick have settled into their new town and she is ready to tackle her new job.
She learned to cook from Amy Wipf in Bowdle and said she learned a lot more than just cooking from her. Although she said cooking for one is no fun, Dana's idea of a good meal revolves around pasta.
"My grandma was not much of cook, everything was pretty bland tasting," she said. "Baking was more my thing in college. When I was supposed to be studying for a test, I was in the kitchen baking."
She said she learned through trial and error and said it comes easy to her.
"I haven't killed anybody yet," she laughed.
Her favorite is Chicken Alfredo roll ups and anything with pasta. She said she orders mac and cheese where ever she goes.
Dana is an avid reader and will read anything that has to with history, especially war history. Her favorite book is Lisa Wingate's "Before We Were Yours."
Dana Soto's Recipes
Boudreaux Salad
4 oz. pancetta, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1 small bunch of kale
2 Tbsps. olive oil, divided
1 small shallot, finely minced
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
2 Tbsps. red wine vinegar
1/2 Granny Smith apple, unpeeled and diced
1/4 cup currants (have used raisins in the past)
2 tsps. freshly squeezed lemon juice
Shaved parmesan
Add pancetta to large sauté pan set over medium-low heat. Cook until brown and most of the fat has been rendered, approximately 10 minutes. While pancetta cooks, wash the kale, remove tough inner ribs and cut into 1-inch ribbons. Once pancetta is brown, add 1 Tbsp. olive oil and the shallots. Cook 5 to 7 minutes, or until shallots are golden around the edges and cooked through. Remove pan from heat and whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, mustard, and red wine vinegar. Pour warm vinaigrette of over the kale. Add apples, currants, and lemon juice. Toss to combine. Finish with parmesan over the salad.
Bacon Cheeseburger Bombs
1 can Pillsbury biscuits (10 biscuits)
1 lb. lean ground beef
1/2 onion, finely chopped
3 slices bacon, chopped
1/3 cup cream cheese
1 Tbsp. ketchup
2 Tbsps. barbecue sauce
1 tsp. yellow mustard
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
5 oz. cheddar cheese, chopped into 10 squares (I've used shredded in the past)
1 egg white
Sesame seeds
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large pan, brown ground beef, bacon, and onion until cooked. Drain grease. Add cream cheese, ketchup, BBQ sauce, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir over low heat until cream cheese is melted. Allow to cool. Roll each biscuit very thin. Place 2 Tbsps. beef mixture on each biscuit and add 1 square of cheese. Wrap the biscuit around the beef/cheese and tightly seal edges. Place biscuits on parchment lined pan, seam side down. Brush with egg white and sprinkle sesame seeds. Bake at 350 degrees, 13 to 16 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve warm.
Chicken Alfredo Roll-ups
9 lasagna noodles
2 1/2 cups alfredo sauce (optional homemade recipe to follow)
2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
Garlic salt
3 cups shredded mozzarella
Spray 8×8-inch pan with nonstick spray and pour 1/2 cup alfredo sauce, or just enough to cover the bottom of the pan. Boil 8 to 10 cups water in large pan, cook lasagna noodles until al dente (cook one or two extra in the event that a noodle rips or breaks). Drain and rinse noodles with cold water to prevent them from sticking together. Then, lay out each noodle individually and blot dry with a paper towel. Spread about 2 Tbsps. alfredo sauce over each noodle (if there is too much, it gets very messy). Sprinkle oregano and garlic salt on top of sauce. Take 1/9 of shredded chicken and spread out evenly over each noodle. Add approx. 3 Tbsps. cheese. Start at one end of noodle and begin to roll—you will need to lift a little in order to prevent squishing out the inside ingredients while rolling.
Place roll ups in the pan, one by one, seam-side down so they don't come undone. Once they are all in the pan, pour the remaining Alfredo sauce over the top, then top with remaining cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until cheese is completely melted.
Homemade Alfredo Sauce
1/2 cup butter
2 oz. cream cheese
2 cups heavy cream
2 tsps. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. fresh minced garlic
Salt and fresh black pepper
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
2/3 cup parmesan cheese
In medium to large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add fresh minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add cream cheese and whisk to smooth and melted. Whisk in heavy cream.
Season with the garlic powder, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and whisk frequently until sauce thickens, around 15 minutes. Stir in cheese and when melted, remove from heat and serve. Makes 2 1/2 cups.
Oven Roasted Ranch Potatoes
2 lbs. small red potatoes, quartered
1 package dry ranch seasoning mix
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp. salt
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Quarter your small red potatoes and put them in a gallon-sized Ziploc bag. Pour in olive oil, ranch seasoning, and salt; seal and shake until potatoes are coated. Place in a lightly greased baking dish and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until potatoes are golden brown.
Pizza Pasta Casserole
2 lbs. ground beef
8 oz. pepperoni
1 large onion
2 jars of spaghetti sauce
1 package spiral pasta, cooked and drained
4 cups mozzarella cheese
Brown hamburger and onion. Combine meats, sauce, and noodles. Top with cheese. Bake at 350 for 20 to 25 minutes.

Maybe it's because I was up for 28 hours straight yesterday (for the ACM Awards—I'd love for you guys to watch our red-carpet coverage!), but there were plenty of strange water-cooler moments on Dancing With the Stars last night. Maybe it was the elimination I really did not see coming or the ridiculous comments thrown Derek and Nastia's way, but it all deserves to be discussed. (By the way...Patti's missing shoe? Doesn't count as a strange moment—that's just DWTS for you!) Let's get to it, shall we?
5. Robert's non-elimination reaction: The Shark Tank judge had no clue he was safe after Patti and Artem were eliminated, even mouthing "Not us?" to his fellow contestants. Sharna had to give him a hug to explain that no, he was not going home, and it was Patti who was being sent to GMA.
6. Patti's elimination: I know, I know. Why should I be surprised about anything on this show, least of all who goes home each week? It's not like Patti was on top of the leader board. However, she was such a fan favorite and actually could move, unlike past contestants who were beloved, yet didn't have much skill. (Bill Engvall or Michael Waltrip, anyone?) Even last week, I overheard a publicist say, "She's going to be this season's Tommy Chong! Everyone loves her." I expected her to stay past Robert and Chris. And on a personal note, I'll miss Ms. LaBelle, who was the epitome of class and courage backstage each week. I hope I can say I learned a thing or two from the legendary singer.
