For Immediate Release
April 1, 2007
Alcatraz, San Francisco's world-famous visitor attraction, invites young people to navigate the Island and interact with nature, history and adventure by becoming an Alcatraz Junior Ranger. This free educational program, developed and operated by the National Park Service (NPS), is offered on Alcatraz and at many other national park sites across the United States.
Alcatraz Junior Rangers are young people between the ages of seven and 15 who participate in a variety of hands-on, self-directed learning activities designed to enhance their Alcatraz experience. Working with their families, Junior Rangers learn the importance of protecting the natural resources on Alcatraz, as well as the value of preserving the Island's history and culture.
"Families are one of our most important audiences, and through the Junior Ranger program we are able to deliver an age-appropriate experience on Alcatraz," said Rich Weideman, Chief of the Office of Public Affairs and Special Events for the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. "While the Island is perhaps best known for its legacy as one of the toughest penitentiaries in American history, there is much more to learn during an Alcatraz visit. The Junior Ranger program sheds light on the stories that we know will resonate with younger people."
Through the Junior Ranger guidebook, kids and their families explore the many faces of Alcatraz, using interactive activities that highlight the Island's cultural and natural assets. The guide includes sections on the Island's military history, its importance as a federal penitentiary, the diverse bird and plant species that live on the Island, the historic Indian Occupation, and the important role of Park Rangers as stewards of national park resources. Young people who complete the Alcatraz Junior Ranger activity guide receive a badge and a signed certificate, granting them Junior Ranger status on Alcatraz and at National Parks across America.
Alcatraz is open every day of the year except Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day. Families are encouraged to buy tickets well in advance, especially during peak summer season. To
purchase tickets, please visit the Alcatraz Cruises website at www.alcatrazcruises.com. Additional information on the Island and the Junior Ranger program is available through the National Park Service at www.nps.gov/alcatraz, or the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy at www.parksconservancy.org.

Every abundant year is only an ephemeral moment of our life. I would say, a single year is too fleeting for us to actualize everything significant in our "must" lists, if we even had one. Did you finish reading all the books in your 2013 "must-read" list? Were you able to behold the magnificent places in your "must-visit" list? If you did all of them, you might be very good at time management and congratulations for that. But, maybe your list is just too short.
Despite the challenges of 2013, the new year surely brings different promises for all of us. Wherever we live, we are facing fresh opportunities for new beginnings. We will be dealing with more lesson-filled challenges. Most of all, we will be embarking on new unforgettable and worthwhile adventures. If you had real fun and meaningful journey in 2013, make sure that at the end of 2014 your travelogue has been more daring, breathtaking and definitely life-changing.
Personally, I envisioned to make the year 2014 more exhilarating. I travelled to several countries last year, but I realized I never really had a good plan when it comes to my trips. So for 2014, I want to make it special. For that, I prepared my top five "must-see" places to enjoy and celebrate life.
Being an outdoor enthusiast, I desire for extremely exotic adventure. Overwhelming as it may sound but I do dream of hunting in Thornybush Game Reserve in South Africa. I would love to visit Thornybush Game Reserve, because I have heard a lot of electrifying stories about it. Africa is a distinctively abundant place to treasure; absolutely one of the most magnificent continents in the world. To be there is to experience a unique paradise where both the wild, the exotic and the beautiful blend to delight, thrill and inspire both the natives and strangers.
Perhaps, one of the most amazing sights that could inspire heavenly feeling is unspoiled coral archipelagos in an ocean brimming with marine lives that would leave us in wonder and awe. Micronesia has one of the planet's remarkable paradise, the Kiribati (formerly Gilbert Islands). I would like to drench myself in the richness of its natural wonders, beautiful white sandy beaches, crystal-clear waters and breathtaking, pristine coral world.
I was envious when a friend of mine went to Hawaii few years ago. The photos he'd taken was perfect, incredibly spectacular. I would want to experience the place myself, with all its luxurious beauty and charm and feed my curiosity about Kauai or The Garden Island. I want to bask under the canopy of its majestic forests and awe-inspiring natural wonders that lure many people from all over the world to come and visit every year.
I had received lots of invitations from my friends in Indonesia. They wanted me to come and visit the famous Bali to experience its jaw-dropping beauty, relaxing beaches and heart-warming culture. Somehow, I would like to experience reprieve on this small Indonesian island to further understand the deeper meaning of life, to experience greater fun and explore new tradition.
A luxurious Irish escapade would definitely complete my year. I want to visit Dublin to experience firsthand its interesting urban beat, comforting countryside tranquility, amazing seascapes, wonderfully charming culture, and so much more. It would be fantastic to explore the city and other parts of the country and laze around an Irish paradise and cherish its unforgettable loveliness and richness.
Traveling kills ignorance. It offers many things that would help us change, develop and enrich our perspectives and way of life. How I wish I could just fly anytime I want and go to places I'd dream to see. If you own a trade-a-plane jet, start creating your own list. Otherwise, book your tour as early as possible to experience the joy of traveling and explore the wonders of paradise on Earth.

Stunned students at Thurgood Marshall Academic High School are mourning the death of 16-year-old Andy Zeng this week.
Grief counselors at the school were being made available to students, according to San Francisco Unified School District spokeswoman Heidi Anderson. On Sunday, the body of Zeng, a sophomore at the school, was found in a home in the Silver Terrace neighborhood. He was not a resident in the home. San Francisco police said Zeng was murdered.
The news of Zeng's passing spread quickly among students on social media sites including Twitter and Tumblr.
"I found out during 3rd period today," a Thurgood Marshall sophomore wrote on her Tumblr page Tuesday. "Marvin, Jason, Joanne, Eric and me were all in shocked (sic). We called your phone, you didn't pick up. I cried during lunch."
Four teenagers have been arrested and a fifth teen was being sought in connection with the killing. Police were called to a house in the 2100 block of Quesada Avenue around 4:30 a.m. Sunday.
A resident in an upstairs unit of the two-story building smelled gas, went to check on the unit below and found Zeng. Rumors were circulating among some neighbors Monday that Zeng's body was discovered with a bag over his head.
The suspects are accused of dousing the crime scene with liquid accelerant, either kerosene or gasoline, according to police.

In the middle of laying down the man hammer you pull out your dick, do a slight pose and begin a rhythmic drum beat with your wiener on her vagina. While "tomahawking" she needs to cry out in a native "war cry". The War Chief must then yell out in a battle cry singing "aye yai yai yai, aye yai yai yai" while matching the slaps of his wiener to the chant. Female ejaculation is imminent.

Sharon Monteith's literary-historical study will be the first to analyse the relationship between literary culture and political and social change in the US civil rights movement. It will uncover the significance of literary activism from the post-Civil War Reconstruction era to the present and, by mapping and analysing civil rights literary culture, it will extend civil rights historiography.

In the era of Black Lives Matter and transatlantic concerns about social, racial and ethnic divisions foregrounded by Brexit and the US and EU elections, my research mines a useable activist past in narrative culture. The cultural and intellectual history of the civil rights movement has lagged behind its social and political history and so my fellowship will uncover the fiction – novels, poetry, drama and short stories – that locates civil rights as a political paradigm in a longer freedom struggle for equality and justice.
In 2001–2002, I was a Rockefeller Humanities Fellow based at the University of Memphis and researching the Mississippi Delta when I began to perceive a significant gap in both civil rights and literary history. Since then I have been recovering neglected texts by renowned American writers and published and unpublished works by overlooked activist-writers. The oldest civil rights organisation still in existence, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) founded in 1909, positioned writers as leaders from its inception, believing in literature as a force for change. Even so, the civil rights movement's literary culture remains uncharted, as does the role that literary activism played in other civil rights organisations. Many activists were writers before they joined the movement; others became writers because of it. The narrative culture of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) in the 1960s is the subject of my forthcoming book SNCC's Stories which includes the recovery and analysis of an unpublished novel by Executive Secretary James Forman and memoirs, plays, poetry and stories by many of SNCC's organisers.

The African American freedom movement did, of course, inspire writers with socialist beliefs down the decades and this study will analyse that work. Upholding a social fiction of white supremacy demanded considerable effort by racial segregationists which translated quickly into novels written by those who sought to hold back racial change. Other writers, black and white, exposed and satirised racist demagoguery, especially in the Deep South, and still others depicted white racial moderates to explore the fear of social change and the difficulties of challenging the status quo. By the 1950s journalists were also turning what they witnessed on 'the civil rights beat' into fiction and more writers in other countries were drawn to civil rights as a subject. Movement stories are not limited by genre, race, or a writer's political standpoint but literary criticism about the African American freedom struggle has typically focussed on slave narratives, the Black Arts Movement since the late 1960s, or fictions published by white writers in a 'New South' of racial reconciliation since the 1980s. The historically different – and sometimes clashing – concerns of civil rights organisations are lost in fictions in which civil rights history is merely backdrop and contribute to the forging of a false paradigm of 'civil rights literature' that is mythologically thick but historically thin. This study aims to uncover a nuanced literary history of a long and complex civil rights movement as explored in imaginative writing. It will involve examining political fiction grounded in historical understanding of movement tenets and culture and will bring literature focussed on activism to the attention of readers. This Leverhulme Major Research Fellowship allows me to undertake more archival research and to write this study.

Main Difference
Today any type of readable and writable data can be shaped into two different forms. Either in form of soft copy or in form of hard copy. The basic purpose of these two is the presentation or storage of written material and data. The purpose of this article is to draw a fine line between hard copy and soft copy and clear the minds of readers about any confusion of both terms. The term hard copy means something touchable, physical and tangible while soft copy means a data or information which can be stored in any kind of digital memory.
Hard Copy
The term hard copy itself describes something touchable, physical and tangible. And copy means the result of a production or information. So the collective meaning of hard copy is, production of any record or information in a physical object or form. Printed books, newspapers, magazines, documents, etc. all are kinds of hard copy. Hard copy is an older way of keeping the record in physical form. Although technology has been changed but still old is gold. Property papers, contracts, agreements and other signed documents are still required to be kept in physical form or hard copy to prove your point.Teleprinter pages, books, computer printouts and likewise pages and printouts are the best examples of hard copy. It is considered as an old way of representing the data but still the widely used medium of data and information in the modern world. The term hard copy sometimes also used for the computing purpose as well. But make it clear that non-printed punched paper tapes, diskettes, CDs or any kind of magnetic tapes are not considered as the hard copies. The hard copy is highly associated with the printing of newspapers, books and likewise printouts. Despite the fact that there are many advantages of using hard copy but this system is gradually decreasing because it involves huge cost and wastage of time. You can't easily share the hard copy in case of original one with anyone living in other country. In case of giving another hard copy of document to anyone means there will be printing cost. But still the hard copy is generally accepted as the authentic medium of information. In case of validity of document, signatures are taken on the hard format documents.
Soft Copy
Soft copy means a data or information which can be stored in any kind of digital memory. It is an intangible form of preserving the material. You can see the record but cannot touch it. Monitors or others display screens are used to see the soft copy results. Soft copy is a latest form of preserving the material and information in a digital form. With the invention of computer, concept of soft copy came into existence. Among lot of advantages of having soft copy two main advantages of soft copy are that you can anytime send the data via email and can preserve the data without having actual physical place. In short, you can get rid of from courier services and bulky files.Unlike hard copy, it is not stored or printed over physical paper rather available in the form of digital document file like digital text format, image format or any other presentation format. PDF, doc files, xlx files, presentation files, etc. are the best examples of soft copy. Instead of viewing via any physical media, these are accessed through database programs, word processing programs or through any presentation program subject to the format of the files or data. These can be transferred from one PC and operating system to another PC or operating system through USB drives, external disk drives or online sharing and downloading. There are many advantages of using soft copy as it makes the environment of office paperless. But at the same the credibility of soft documents are still at stake. Despite the fact that digital signature system has been introduced but still the signature fixed on the soft copy is not regarded as the genuine one and not authenticate the credibility of the document.
Key Differences
- Producing soft copy is less expensive than producing hard copy. Compiling a single book in hard format will be more expensive than producing an eBook on any word processing software.
- Soft copy has no weight. Weight is just of the media on which it is stored. Hard copy carries some weight. Having bulk of pages of hard copy means large amount of weight as well.
- Soft copy requires no physical space as compares to hard copy. Sometimes hard copies required a special record room or portion of cabinet.
- Hard copy cannot be preserved for a long time. Chances of termite becomes even more high in case of old files and documents.
- Hard copy is beneficial in the sense that it is touchable and can be read out easily. While soft copy sometime requires special software to read and access.
- Soft copy is beneficial for environment as it cuts the cost of papers, ink and printing. Hard copy requires all this material to get the shape.
- Although soft copy is becoming more popular than hard copy but still hard copy is used as a medium of evidence in case of legal disputes.
- Manipulating with the material of soft copy is easy than that of hard copy.
- Soft copy is a digital and electronic form of material while hard copy is a physical and tangible form of material.
- Electricity or any kind of power is necessary for soft copy, which is not required in case of hard copy.
- Hard copy is a printed document while soft copy is an unprinted digital document.
- A soft copy can be shared with others by way of transferring via USB or external disk drives or attaching via email or by way of cloud sharing. Hard copy can be shared with others by way of getting another photocopy.
- You can make as many copies of soft copy as you can. This requires simple copy and paste and requires to additional cost. A copy of hard copy means another print out of the same document that requires additional cost.
- Hard copy requires to extra gadgets for reading purpose except the paper on which it is printed while soft copy can't be read out without any word processing, database or presentation program subject to the format of files or data.
- Parceling hard copy to another country requires time and cost while soft copy can be shared easily by simply attach with email or through cloud sharing. Hard copy can be shared via fax as well but this also requires some processing methods of soft copy.
- Teleprinter pages, books, computer printouts and likewise pages and printouts are the best examples of hard copy. While PDF, doc files, xlx files, presentation files, etc. are the best examples of soft copy.
- Although digital signature system for soft copy has been introduced but still the signatures on hard copy are accepted as authentic source.
- Hard copy provides more authenticity as compared to the soft copy.

The best varieties of pears for salads are Bartlett, Anjou, Bosc and Comice. Make sure the pears are perfectly ripe to ensure a sweet flavor and juicy texture.
Pears do not ripen well on the tree, so they are picked when mature, but not yet ripe. To ripen fresh pears at home, place them in a paper bag, fold over the top and store at room temperature for 1 to 3 days. To test for ripeness, apply gentle thumb pressure at the base of the stem. If the fruit yields slightly, the pear is ripe. Use immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Look for pears with a fragrant aroma and coloring characteristic of their variety. Skins should be free from cuts and bruises. A ripe pear is one that feels slightly firm, but gives a bit to gentle pressure at the stem end.

Texas Style Council was my fourth large conference this year and I think it was my favorite so far simply because so many of my blog friends were there. It was a huge thrill meeting all of these girls above plus so many other wonderful women. Can you spot some of your favorite bloggers in the photo above? This was from the Minnetonka dinner I attended at Max's Wine Dive. One of the ladies on our staff, Tram, actually recommended Max's Wine Dive to me as a place I should go to while in Austin, so it was a fun treat to end up there on the first day of being in Austin.
Oh my sweet Chelsey-kins. Chelsey from The Paper Mama and I have been roommates at quite a few conferences this year. She's basically my conference wife. This photo was taken while at TxSC Prom. It was such a fun night, chatting away with old blog friends who have turned into new real life friends. I spent a good portion of the night dancing away on the dance floor with Elizabeth from Delightfully Tacky, Julie from Orchid Grey, and some other dancing gals. Julie & Elizabeth definitely have dancing skillz yo.
Chelsey, Julie and I shared an Air BnB while in Austin. Have you heard of Air Bnbs? This was my first time staying at one and it was so great! Ours was this cute little guest house behind the owner's main house. She stocked the fridge & cupboards with breakfast necessities, snacks, beer, and some other treats. I wish we could have enjoyed the beautiful little outdoor set up that the owner had ready for us each night but it was way too hot. There was a fire pit, tons of twinkling lights, and a little gazebo hang out spot. Too cute. This was our Air Bnb.
I was so incredibly excited to get to see the wonderful ladies of Maiedae, Savannah & Jenny while in Austin. I actually met Savannah about two years ago while I was selling my jewelry at a street fair here in Seattle. She happened to be in Seattle visiting and saw on instagram where I was and came and found me! These girls are just the most inviting spirits, I love em'. Maybe they just have that magical Georgia charm.
It was so lovely meeting the sweet and adorable Elsie from A Beautiful Mess as well. For years, she has been such a huge source of support, inspiration, and encouragement for me. When I was just starting out in jewelry design a few years ago, she always had the sweetest things to say about my work. She was actually one of my first wholesale accounts for my jewelry when we stocked some of my bling in her store front. She also was kind enough to request that I work with her and the beautiful Emma, her sister, to redesign Emma's blog 2 years ago. Blog designing ended up not being that path that I wanted to pursue as a career, but I appreciate so much that she respected and dug my style at the time. I really admire Elsie as a wise and adaptable business woman. I also loved getting to meet Emma & Katie from Skunkboy Creatures. Katie is just as gorgeous as she is in photos folks, and just as sweet and kind as I had expected :) And congrats to Emma on her recent wedding!
A little photo booth fun sponsored by Bonlook at the TxSC prom. I had such a great time chatting with Teika from Selective Potential when a bunch of us went out for food on the last night. It turns out that she actually went to the same high school as one of my best friends in Michigan. In January I met a rad girl who actually was neighbors with my friend in Michigan when they were growing up! I guess Michigan breeds awesome and adventurous women.
Here are Jenny again, Kendi from Kendie Everyday & her hubs, Susie who quickly gained the nickname German Susie! Me, and the most genuine and sweet Jen from Jen Loves Kev. Ok, first of all, Kendi is HILARIOUS. I had a great time chatting and hanging with her and a bunch of fun ladies & gents on the last night of TxSC. Jen is just a pure sweetheart. You can probably tell from her blog that she is a kind and thoughtful woman and it couldn't be more true of an assumption. I really dig her. Our presentations/talks were at the same time on Sunday afternoon, along with Julie's, so I'll have to catch their talks online thanks to the video recordings that captured all the discussions & presentations at the conference. And we can't forget German Susie! Oh my gosh, I just immediately clicked with this girl. I do hope she hops on the blogging band wagon now that she came to the conference and gained some inspiration! I had such a blast hanging out with her throughout the weekend.
I was so thrilled to get to hangout with Julie on and off all weekend. I just think she's so great, super down to earth, fun, and a free spirit. We both have a lot of hair.
Austin roomies, sweltering away in the heat as we waited to get breakfast with Elizabeth, Jenny, Savannah, and Indiana from Adored Austin. My presentation on how to harness the power of Pinterest on Sunday went really well I think, other than having issues with the powerpoint for a solid 15 mins of the first part of the presentation. I will definitely post an online version of the presentation on my blog soon!
At the conference, I gave out a ton of free gifts from my jewelry line while I met bloggers from across the US. I brought special presents for my roommates who wore their new jewelry all weekend. Thank you girls! And on Saturday, Elizabeth and Indiana happened to both wear the Tribal Queen necklaces from my shop as well! I had to snap a pic of all of them wearing their handmade by me bling :)
On the last night of the conference, I realized that I was on the same flight out as Julie & Susie! So funny and they were two of the ladies I hung out with most at the conference. Julie was headed to San Francisco for business, Susie was headed to SF for fun and to meet up with friends, and I just had a layover in SF. We were able to grab seats together which was comforting when the first 20 mins of our flight wer super rocky and bumpy, eek!
I'm already missing so many friends from this weekend and feel so lucky to have gotten to hang with so many of them at one time. I will absolutely be returning to Austin next March for the next Texas Style Council. Will you be there too?
