Unattacked Cells
after Martin Gardner
quite easy to place four chess queens on a 4x4 board to leave one
unattacked vacant cell - see the diagram at right. The only unattacked
cell is marked with a red dot. This cell can't be reached by any of
the queens according to their allowed moves.
Your task is to place five chess queens on a 5x5 board in such a way
that a maximum number of vacant cells are unattacked.
the way, if you've forgotten the chess queen's moves the diagram at
left will remind it to you. It shows that you may move the queen in
any of the eight directions and on any number of the vacant cells.
For more convenient solving you may print out the board, and use five
quarters as queens and some pennies to mark the unattacked vacant

Now that USDA is forecasting huge corn plantings this year, what can we expect from soybean prices?
Several weeks ago, market analyst Richard Brock projected that if 70 million acres were planted to soybeans in the United States, carryover could drop from 568 million bushels to 400 million bushels and the average farm price would be around $7 a bushel.
Brock said at 68 million planted acres of soybeans, and normal yields of around 39 bushels, "we have a carryover of 100 million to 200 million bushels, and (there's no telling how high beans will go). I'm not predicting anything, but watch this acreage. If it goes under 68 million acres, the market (could take off)."
On March 30 USDA forecast that U.S. soybean producers intend to plant 67.1 million acres in 2007, which is down 11 percent from last year.
The soybean market did move sharply higher after USDA's acreage report was published, lost some ground, then started to regain momentum. Prices were still hanging short of $8 at the time of this writing. Reliable information on planted acres for corn and soybeans is still a few weeks away.
In the short term, it seems that for every bullish scenario pushing soybean prices, there's a bearish one weighing on them. For example, we're bearish because soybeans stocks are at very high levels, but bullish because China has an unbelievable appetite for them.
Longer term, there is a potential record crop coming off in South America and the corresponding idea that prices must move lower to compete with that crop.
"But if we get the U.S. planted acreage in beans down to a very low level, by the end of the summer, we could blow the top off the bean market," Brock said. "There is more potential on the upside in soybeans longer term than there is for corn.
"Right now, we have such a huge increasing demand base for soybeans and I don't see an end in sight. One thing worries me a little bit, though. Biodiesel plants that make money are the ones that are running with animal fat."
Brock feels that one day, although the change will be gradual, the United States "is going to become the world's producer of corn and South America is going to become the world's producer of soybeans. We're making that transition whether we like it or not."
Also look for cotton prices to get stronger this year as Mid-South and Southeast cotton producers shift acreage to take advantage of better economics for corn, Brock says.
"If you asked me what I would buy, I would buy cotton. The cotton market has made a long-term bottom. Of course, that's why nobody has planted it this year. The crop this year is corn."

Oregon Higher Education Graduate Campus Programs & Schools
Searching for higher education graduate on-campus programs? Learn amongst other teaching professionals. Find education administration schools in a specific city, state or country.
What are Higher Education Graduate Programs?
Higher education graduate programs are Masters and Doctorate degrees in educational leadership. Many on-campus programs prepare students to research, analyze or manage issues in post-secondary education. You might explore specific areas of educational administration such as student affairs administration. Or, develop the skills to pursue a variety of potential careers depending your goals. Choose a degree path towards extra licensure to pursue a career as a director of a special education school or high school principal. Or prepare to pursue potential careers in educational policy research, postsecondary educator or student services.
DID YOU KNOW? Per Data USA, in the year 2014, 2,728 Masters degrees and 521 research Doctorate degrees in higher education and administration were awarded.i
Why Study Higher Education Administration on-Campus?
Earning a higher education graduate degree on-campus may be personally and professionally rewarding. In-person learning may offer unique features distinct from distance-education. Learn through live lectures. Participate in research at your university
Cohort model
Some higher education graduate programs use the cohort model. Students who enter their program at the same time take courses and do field work together. This may foster collaborative approaches to: learning, decision-making and problem-solving.
Extend your learning beyond the classroom. Perhaps foster mentorships or expand your networks. Join alumni networks or campus associations and activities.
Study with classmates from your university's local community, other states and possibly, from foreign countries. Get other perspectives.
Field Experiences
Many of the higher education administration graduate programs require students to complete a field placement or internship. They might work within a local school setting and this is usually under the guidance or a mentoring principal or administrator. Searching for a graduate school with interesting opportunities might help you make an informed decision about where to go.
Stay Motivated
In-person learning tends to work for personalities that need the motivation. Or the discipline of showing up on time. Having regular contact with a professor in an actual classroom might be a valuable incentive for you to get your work done. And finish your degree!
What Should I Look for in Higher Education Graduate Programs?
Graduate degree earning programs in educational administration are varied. If you are just starting your search, clarify the type of higher education graduate degree program you want to find. You might do this by identifying your interests and your degree level.
Identify Your Interests
Two main themes run through-out higher education graduate programs. Those that are modeled on research and academia on one hand. And, those that are modeled around professional practice. Your goal may be to potentially move up the corporate ladder in a college administrative setting. Or you may be interested in global education incentives or understanding student diversity. Consider these needs because many graduate schools offer one or the other track.
Higher Education Administration: Potential Curriculum
A higher education administration graduate program may cover topics that span business, marketing, strategy and teaching. Evaluate a school is by looking at its courses and concentration areas within individual programs. Each university has a unique faculty, special research projects and/or curriculum. Graduate courses in higher education administration might include areas such as:ii
- Organization and leadership within colleges, community colleges, and universities;
- Public policy;
- Teaching methods;
- Community engagement;
- Learning and assessment methods;
- College student development;
- Faculty management;
- University finances;
- Registration statistics
Identify Your Degree Level
Do you have undergraduate degree in Education? Or, are you a 'career changer'? Perhaps someone with a finance background who wants to understand university budgeting. Or a marketing professional seeking expertise in boosting college enrollment. Are you considering a Master of Education? Or are you choosing between a PhD and EdD in higher education administration? The answers to your questions are important. Look for a campus program that aligns with your goals.
Campus-Based Masters in Higher Education Programs
There are several options for on-campus Masters in higher education programs. Master of Education (MEd) in higher education degree programs are geared to the scholar-practitioner. Students who are either early career professionals or aspire to pursue a potential career in student academic affairs or management. Master of Science (MS) in higher education degree programs may offer more analytical perspectives with fewer electives. Students might be interested in focusing on a specific topic in administrative leadership, such as curriculum design or financial aid. Master of Arts (MA) in higher education degree programs may be more academic and research focused.
Campus-Based Higher Education Doctoral Programs
Campus-based higher education doctoral programs usually cover aspects of organization, leadership or teaching. Typically, the Doctor of Education (EdD) is geared to candidates who want to apply research and theory. This could mean finding a solution for problems within urban higher education. Or, combining policy with practices to foster organizational change. The PhD in higher education is another option. This path is generally chosen by candidates who want to contribute new knowledge to the field of higher education through their own research.
Find Accredited On-Campus Higher Education Graduate Programs
Accreditation is another thing to consider about prospective graduate schools. Accreditation occurs at two different levels. The first is for the whole institution. The second, not always a factor, is program specific.
Institutional Accreditation
A university must meet standards set forth by an external agency to be accredited initially. It then commits to re-evaluation to maintain its status. Most higher education graduate programs are offered at regionally accredited institutions.
Program Accreditation
These already accredited institutions may have professional programs that are accredited by specific agencies. These agencies are approved by the U.S. Department of Education or the Council for Higher Education Accreditation. CAEP, the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation is the accreditor of departments, schools. And colleges that prepare teachers and other educators.

BANGOR, Maine — The incumbent has lost in a key state Senate race in Bangor, according to unofficial results tabulated by the Bangor Daily News.
In District 32, which drew more than $450,000 in outside spending, Democrat Geoff Gratwick unseated one-term incumbent Republican Sen. Nichi Farnham. That outside spending almost doubled the next highest total in this year's legislative contests.
Farnham acknowledged her defeat in a phone interview with the BDN. "I'd like to thank all the people who live in Bangor and Hermon for one term in the Senate and I appreciate their kindness," she said.
Gratwick won with 8,837 votes (56 percent) to Farnham's 6,995 votes, according to unofficial results tabulated by the Bangor Daily News.
During the campaign, Democrats also accused Farnham of violating campaign disclosure laws. However, the Maine State Ethics Commission found no illegal coordination between Farnham and the Senate Republican Majority political action committee.
"That race will go down as an example of some of the worst in Maine politics in that the Democrats continued to attack an honorable senator even after she was unanimously exonerated by a bipartisan ethics commission," Maine GOP spokesman David Sorensen said.
"I wasn't a fan of the tone of the race," Farnham said. "I am proud of the campaign that my family and friends helped me run. I'm sorry it got lost in the other messaging."
Gratwick did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment.
Six hours after polls closed, many Maine Senate and House races remained too close to call to determine which party would hold majorities in the next Legislature. At 2 a.m., Maine Democratic Party chair Ben Grant said that Democrats believed they had won 17 Senate seats, with the possibility of winning races too close to call in Senate District 35, where Sen. Troy Jackson is fighting off a challenge from Republican Peter Edgecomb, and in Senate District 17, where Colleen Quint is attempting to unseat first-term incumbent Republican Sen. Garrett Mason.
Another key win for Democrats came in District 6, where Jim Boyle of Scarborough defeated Republican Ruth Summers, the wife of Secretary of State and U.S. Senate candidate Charlie Summers.
But in Aroostook County, Rep. John Martin, D-Eagle Lake, who was first elected to the Maine Legislature in 1964, lost his re-election bid to Republican Allen Michael Nadeau in House District 1.
Incumbent Democrats Dawn Hill, Stan Gerzofsky and Justin Alfond won re-election to the Senate. Rep. Anne Haskell, D-Portland, won easily in Senate District 9.
Republican Gary Plummer beat independent Martin Shuer to pick up the Senate District 12 seat held for the past eight years by Democrat Bill Diamond.
Incumbent Republicans Roger Katz of Augusta and Doug Thomas of Ripley won new terms in the Senate.
Independent Richard Woodbury of Yarmouth apparently turned back a challenge by Republican Chris Tyll in Senate District 11. Woodbury could find himself in the position of tie breaker in the Senate if Democrats and Republicans split the chamber's other 34 seats.
Robert Nutting, R-Oakland, the current speaker of the House, easily won re-election.
Independent Ben Chipman of Portland defeated former legislator Herb Adams, a Democrat, and Republican Gwen Tuttle to return to Augusta to represent House District 119.
Sorensen said Rep. Heather Sirocki, R-Scarborough, defeated Democrat Jean-Marie Caterina in House District 128. Environmental advocacy groups earlier this fall singled out Sirocki as the first Maine lawmaker placed on the League of Conservation Voters' "Dirty Dozen" list.
Republicans also picked up two House seats in Augusta, with victories by Matt Pouliot and Corey Wilson, according to Sorensen.
This year's high-stakes struggle to win majorities in the Legislature obliterated the record for outside spending. As of mid-afternoon Tuesday, the Maine Ethics Commission reported that overall outside spending on Maine legislative races topped $3.53 million, shattering the 2010 record of $1.5 million.
In 2010, Republicans swept to majorities in both the Maine House of Representatives and the Maine Senate for the first time since 1974. Heading into Tuesday's election, House Republicans held 77 seats, Democrats held 70 seats, unenrolled legislators occupied two seats and two vacancies existed. The Senate included 19 Republicans, 15 Democrats and one unenrolled member.
Reeling after the 2010 legislative turnover and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Libby Mitchell's third-place finish in the 2010 contest that sent Republican Paul LePage to the Blaine House, the Maine Democratic Party dedicated itself to regaining majorities in this year's legislative elections.
"I think it's a great night for the party," said Ben Grant, chairman of the Maine Democratic Party. "We are seeing some really great results. I am confident we will pick up one or both of the houses."

During his 10-year span in charge at Lanvin, Alber Elbaz has proven himself one of fashion's finest designers. Last night, he showed he can hold a tune, too.
BY Luke Leitch | 03 March 2012
Photo: Vladimir Potop
"This is a song for all those I love, and who helped me make my dream come true," said Elbaz as a curtain swept back at the end of the catwalk to reveal the designer on stage with a microphone in front of him, and a velvet-jacketed backing band behind. The show that preceded this singing debut was a tight compilation of his greatest Lanvin hits. The dresses ranged from scuba style to heavily bejewelled, but all showcased that Elbaz knack - through cut, drape and shape - of emphasising everything the women wearing them would want emphasised.

His choice of song - Que Sera - as well as the last song during the catwalk show - It Was Just One Of Those Things - immediately prompted some febrile fashionologists to speculate that this show might have marked a goodbye as well as a good excuse to have a party. Most though, simply applauded Elbaz's soulful vocals and twinkle-toed dance moves as he pirouetted down the catwalk working his audience - including Dita Von Teese and Tilda Swinton - like a pro. After Elbaz left the stage, that band kept playing and there was plenty of cake.

During the tenure of Coach John Miller, now in his seventh season as basketball mentor at Mount St. Joseph Academy, the Magic had tasted defeat more than once at the hands of league hyper-rival Villa Maria, but they'd never lost on their home floor to the Malvern, Pa. ballclub.
That streak certainly appeared to be in jeopardy last Thursday evening, when the visiting Hurricanes turned a 21-14 halftime lead into an 11-point advantage late in the third period.
However, the resilient Magic ended the third quarter with a three-point field goal and started the fourth the same way, eventually sending the game into overtime at 33-all. The MSJ defense held the Hurricanes to just four points in the last quarter of regulation play and shut them out entirely in the four-minute OT, when eight made free throws helped the hosts seal a 41-33 victory.
The important Athletic Association of Catholic Academies encounter came in just the fourth game overall for the Mount (3-1) and only the second for Villa (1-1). Each team had one league win under its belt; the Mount topping Nazareth Academy and Villa downing Merion Mercy.
"We have some fresh blood filling some spots and playing, and obviously we did not play well in the first half," Coach Miller said. "They never got frustrated when things weren't going well – they held in there together. It's a great win for us."
Heralded junior guard Alex Louin got into first-half foul trouble but still produced a game-high 16 points, along with eight rebounds. When she had to take a seat following her third personal foul, it gave a rising star an opportunity to shine. Freshman guard Libby Tacka quickly made herself indispensable at both ends of the court.
She handed out two assists and scored all of her nine points during the second half and the overtime period, and on defense she took over the role of guarding premier Villa guard Lisa Mirarchi, who hit 10 of her team-high 14 points in the first half.
In the Magic's late turnaround, Miller noted, "Everybody deserves credit because we played good help defense and we called the switches, but I think a little bit extra credit has to be given to Libby Tacka, who was a freshman guarding one of the best players in our league. For a freshman not to be intimidated guarding a very talented senior says a lot for her character."
The fact that such a key contest appeared so early on the schedule didn't faze the Magic.
"We'll take the big games whenever they come," Louin said. "It doesn't matter to us."
The Mount won the regular-season home/away series between the teams last year, but Villa avenged those two loses in the league championship game, and on Thursday the Hurricanes picked up where they'd left off. Slashing inside to either hit lay-ups or draw fouls, Villa never trailed as it accumulated a 21-11 advantage going into the final minute of the first half. Louin had picked up her third personal foul with 5:40 to go until the intermission, but after a spell on the bench she returned in time to make the final field goal of the half, a trey from the left wing that settled the score at 21-14 for the break.
"I think we were forcing outside shots," the junior observed, "and defensively, we were letting them drive and we weren't really helping each other out. That's not how we usually play."
Miller related "I told the team at halftime that we had to try to correct two things."
The first was on the defensive end; the Magic's customary goal is to keep opponents in the mid to high 30's in total points, and Villa already had 21 at the interlude.
Secondly, the coach said, "We were just settling for outside shots and we weren't taking the ball to the basket, and consequently in the first half we took just two free throws."
Another standard MSJ objective is to try and make more free throws than the opposing team attempts.
One field goal each by junior forward Carly Monzo (nine rebounds, three steals) and senior guard Adrienne Cellucci (four points total, two assists) allowed the Magic to trade points with Villa early in the third period, but then a midrange jumper by Mirarchi and a lay-up by Mora Fetterolf put the Hurricanes up 29-18. MSJ's Tacka then came to life at the end of the quarter, letting fly from the left corner for a three-pointer that brought the margin back down to single digits (29-21) for the start of the final frame.
Two more triples, by sophomore guard Mary Kate Ulasewicz (three steals, two assists) and by Louin, were combined with a drive down the lane by Monzo in an 8-2 surge early in round four, while Villa netted just a pair of free throws from Jackie Carlin. When the 'Canes had tried to pare some time off the clock from their offensive set early in the period, Monzo came up with a steal that led to her lay-up.
VMA's Mirarchi drove to the hoop with 3:18 remaining in regulation for a 33-29 lead, but the visitors would not score again the rest of the way. While the Magic were still taking outside shots, as they had earlier in the game, they were making these attempts more wisely, and were balancing them with dribble penetration and passes into the paint.
Ulasewicz fed the ball inside for a lay-up by Tacka, who later drove in from the right side for another score, tying the game at 33-all with 27 seconds left. After Villa turned the ball over out of bounds on its next possession, the Magic missed their final shot of regulation, so a four-minute overtime ensued.
The Magic only had three team fouls at this point and were already in the bonus themselves. In the first minute of the extra session a lone Louin free throw moved the Mount ahead for good, and a little later senior forward Meg Geatens hit a pair of foul shots.
The rest of the way Louin added three points and Tacka scored two, all from the free throw line. In all, the Mount went eight-for-12 from the charity stripe in the overtime stint.
"It kind of was us all coming together in the end," Louin said. "Each person just picked it up at different points. We did a good job guarding their flex offense and we switched well on their screens so they had trouble running plays."
Geatens pulled in a game-high 10 rebounds and finished with seven points and two assists. Following Mirarchi's 14-point performance on Villa's scoresheet were Molly Namiotka with seven points and Carlin with six.

The Warmth of Other Suns
Avis de l'équipe
Narrator Robin Miles has a heroic task at hand as she performs The Warmth of Other Suns by Pulitzer Prize-winner Isabel Wilkerson. Part oral history, part scholarly analysis, and part the author's own family experience, the book tells in unsparing, vivid detail why African-Americans migrated in huge numbers from the southern states to points north and west during the years 1915 to 1970. Recalling what can only be labeled a shameful period in American history, The Warmth of Other Suns chronicles the racist bondage under which African-Americans lived, years after being legally emancipated.
Miles lets us hear the anger, exasperation, fear, and extraordinary nobility of three individuals whose stories serve as the narrative of the book. Ida May Gladney, George Starling, and Dr. Robert Foster were not players on the national Civil Rights scene, but their stories typify the lives of millions of African-Americans who found themselves virtually, if not literally, imprisoned in the American South. Terror is palpable as Miles recounts how young Mrs. Gladney defiantly challenged a night-time lynch mob at her family's door. George Starling's anger after 50 years is clipped, short, and intense as Miles relates the ludicrous travel protocols African-Americans had to abide by when simply trying to enjoy their right to travel freely. Finally, it is Dr. Robert Foster's soul-crushing drive across the Southwest, attempting to flee the encumbrances of Southern racism and merely wanting a place to sleep after a long day's drive, where Miles triumphs in capturing the staggering weight that racism layered on perpetrators and victims alike. She depicts Dr. Foster's exhausted, emotional breakdown with compassion and, it seems, the weariness of all fellow travelers on this particular road.
Wilkerson offers her family's personal experiences as illustrations of the hold that the South maintained on so many people, no matter how ill-treated they were. Miles captures the joyous midnight revelries of Wilkerson's grandmother and her neighbors, who would gather on warm Georgia summer nights to await the once-a-season blooming of the grandmother's highly-prized cereus flowers.
Miles also leads listeners through the roughest of Wilkerson's scenes, allowing all to grasp the absolute horror that could develop during a simple errand, a normal work day, or a hoped-for family outing. She crisply and coolly recounts the laws written and unwritten that kept African-Americans bound to servitude in the South. It is American history unvarnished, needing to be told, heard, and understood. The depth and breadth of Wilkerson's research and her ability to tell stories, while also relating facts and figures, makes The Warmth of Other Suns a compelling experience. Miles lends a talented voice to Wilkerson's words, imbuing Gladney, Starling, Foster, and many others described in the book with the respect and dignity they have long deserved. Carole Chouinard
National Book Critics Circle Award, Nonfiction, 2011
In this epic, beautifully written masterwork, Pulitzer Prize–winning author Isabel Wilkerson chronicles one of the great untold stories of American history: the decades-long migration of black citizens who fled the South for northern and western cities in search of a better life. From 1915 to 1970, this exodus of almost six million people changed the face of America. Wilkerson interviewed more than a thousand people, and gained access to previously untapped data and official records, to write this definitive and vividly dramatic account of how these American journeys unfolded, altering our cities, our country, and ourselves.
With stunning detail, Wilkerson tells this story through the lives of three unique individuals: Ida Mae Gladney, who in 1937 left sharecropping and prejudice in Mississippi for Chicago, where she achieved quiet blue-collar success and, in old age, voted for Barack Obama when he ran for an Illinois state senate seat; sharp and quick-tempered George Starling, who in 1945 fled Florida for Harlem, where he endangered his job fighting for civil rights, saw his family fall, and finally found peace in God; and Robert Foster, who left Louisiana in 1953 to pursue medicine, becoming the personal physician to Ray Charles as part of a glitteringly successful career that allowed him to purchase a grand home where he often threw exuberant parties.
Wilkerson brilliantly captures her subjects' first treacherous and exhausting cross-country trips by car and train and their new lives in colonies that grew into ghettos, as well as how they changed their new cities with southern food, faith, and culture and improved them with discipline, drive, and hard work. Both a riveting microcosm and a major assessment, The Warmth of Other Suns is a bold, remarkable work, a superb account of an "unrecognized immigration" within our own land. Through the breadth of its narrative, the beauty of the writing, the depth of its research, and the fullness of the people and lives portrayed herein, this book is destined to become a classic.

One of the most amazing books I have ever read!
My mom was one of the southern African Americans who made the trip to Boston all those years ago. She never talked about her trip and her reasons for leaving. I never asked. This books brings incredible insight into her story and ultimately my history. I would recommend it to all, but in particular those who wonder what struggles your parents who migrated from the south all those years ago may have been like.

Superior non-fiction
I can't imagine why a previous reviewer regards this book as poorly written. I beg to differ; it's a masterful work of non-fiction which has been recognized as such by important critics and award committees. If the objection is, I've heard all this before, consider that Isabel Wilkerson isn't necessarily addressing scholars. This book brings a critical component of American history to those of us who have heard little, if anything, about the Great Migration, neglected as it has been in public education. The book is eminently readable, thanks to the novelistic way her three principal characters are brought to life. Their individual stories illustrate the complex motivations, means and outcomes of Great Migration participants. Fascinating, compelling, thought-provoking, and expertly narrated--I can't recommend it highly enough.

probably would make anyone uncomfortable
What made the experience of listening to The Warmth of Other Suns the most enjoyable?
The realization of just how bleak the lives of post slavery black people were, especially in the south, and also the realization of just how recently this changed.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
The story followed the lives of several of the black people who migrated from the south in the early 20th century. The story seemed a little slow and plodding. Sometimes it was difficult to maintain interest. The story could/should have been told in perhaps 1/2 to 2/3 as much time.
Have you listened to any of Robin Miles's other performances before? How does this one compare?
This is my first Robin Miles reading
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, it was a story that I listened to for education, not entertainment.
Any additional comments?
I think that this is a worthwhile read for white people such as myself as well as Black people. It is about a shared heritage that none of us can be proud of. For a conscientious white person, it is horrifying to see just how cruel other white people were in the Jim Crow south. I am not sure how a black person might react, but I can imagine a mixture of emotions, some directed at white people for their cruelty, and some directed at themselves and other black people for their helplessness in the face of this cruelty.
I am 62 years old, and it is a bit humbling to realize that many of the abuses that are described were in full force during my lifetime, and indeed that some of this exists today.
I think that this book would be most valuable to young people of all races. This would help them to understand some of why the older generation acts and thinks the way it does.

Fascinating little known piece of American History
We took this audio book along with us on our vacation that entailed being in the car for 36 hours. My husband had a particular interest in the subject matter since his parents met after making the African-American migration from Alabama to Ohio in the early 1940's. We were drawn into the stories of the main characters as soon as they appeared on the page. We marveled at the amount and quality of the difficult research that must have gone into the making of the book. Our vacation took us to the rocky mountains and the glorious fall foliage but we couldn't wait to get back in the car so we could listen to more. Our hope is that Ms.Wilkerson doesn't stop here with her documentation of other little know american histories. Also note; Robin Miles was most enjoyable to listen to and had a particular knack for identifying each character with her interpretation of their spoken word. Will listen to again!

Great story about American history!
Where does The Warmth of Other Suns rank among all the audiobooks you've listened to so far?
One of the best audiobooks I've ever listened to.
What other book might you compare The Warmth of Other Suns to and why?
In the Garden of Beasts. History lessons in the form of a novel really interest me. The reader gets to enjoy a book and an education.
Have you listened to any of Robin Miles's other performances before? How does this one compare?
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Any additional comments?
This book was a great lesson in American history. Although it was mostly a sad part of US history it gave the reader some insight into the Black experience.

WOW! Thank you....
Absolutely amazing! Heartfelt, emotional, gripping.... This is a wonderful story that was a pleasure to listen to. The narrator, Robin Miles, does a great job transporting the listener and attaching them to the people and places in this book. I have read in other reviews negative comments on the pacing and repetition of phrases. It is absolutely true that the writer will use and reuse a small description say, of someone. I felt that really helped me place everything and jog my memory as to the situation at hand. It does not come off as lazy or unedited but, more conversational. There are a lot of people in these stories with the same names and those recycled descriptions help keep everything straight and helps gain a sense of the characters.
This is an emotional ride, be forewarned. At times I openly laughed, giggled, smiled proudly, cheered, and also got so angry, disappointed, saddened, fist clenchingly pissed off! Needless to say, it is a necessary and enjoyable listen.

a beautiful written history
This book, which richly deserves National Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction, is a beautifully written history. The author, Isabel Wilkerson, does not take the statistically-intense route in explaining one of the most important (yet often forgotten) history events in 20th century US history. Rather, she follows three families in their migration from Florida, Mississippi and Louisiana/Georgia, to northern homes in NY, Chicago and Los Angeles. Along the way, the reader gets a full biography of 6 "ordinary" people, their extended families, their life in the south, the transition to the north, living in the north, and the ends of their lives. Wilkerson does a good job interspersing in this fascinating set of tales the statistical and other evidence about the migration in general. While showing the common and distinct elements experience by these individuals and families. The books nicely toggles back & forth between the 3 families, without getting irritating or confusing. The narration is also excellent.

Serious Download Issue
Among the five star reviews, several complained that the book was repetitive. Indeed it is. Only one reader caught that at chapter 31, there are introductory remarks by Ken Burns and the book begins all over again. I've complained to customer service, but this is a production flaw and the book needs to be either re-recorded or reorganized.
The many listeners who raved about it probably weren't paying attention as they listened in the car or were otherwise multitasking.

Fascinating read
The great migration was not a part of history covered in any of my history classes. This is a book all Americans, whatever ethnicity or background, should read. It is a piece of our history we should all know. This book was extraordinarily well written and extremely well narrated. For how long it is, it never felt long - I listened to it in record time, and felt compelled to listen all the time. Highly highly recommend.

Her new, acclaimed book celebrates black dance pioneer
by Lou Mancinelli
Inequity. Segregation. The determined will of young blacks to take on classical art forms despite cultural barriers and social aggression tinted with racism in Philadelphia, New York and beyond for centuries.
This is the tale told through the life of Joan Meyers Brown, the iconic founder of the Philadelphia School of Dance Arts and PHILADANCO, Philadelphia's historic dance school and performance company, in a new book by Chestnut Hill resident Brenda Dixon Gottschild Brown was born in 1931.
Gottschild, professor emerita of dance studies at Temple University, said last week that her new book, "Joan Myers Brown & the Audacious Hope of the Black Ballerina—A Biohistory of American Performance" (Palgrave MacMillan, 2012), is the story of a black ballerina taking on a white form. The book has been earning rave reviews, including one in the Philadelphia Inquirer on Jan. 15.
According to Jennifer Dunning, former dance critic of The New York Times, "Brenda Dixon Gottschild brings a bracing mix of scholarship and unsentimental compassion to bear on the story of Joan Myers Brown, a classy, feisty, eminently pragmatic visionary whose life and dance company occupy a vivid and important place in the largely unexamined history of dance in Philadelphia, an early and important center for the art as well as Myers Brown's home."
By tracing the history of Brown's life, from her interactions with early teachers to her life as a young dancer unable to take classes at white schools in Philadelphia, to an integral member of both the Philadelphia and nationwide dance communities, Gottschild presents a historical narrative of 20th-century dance through the story of one inspired woman.
In 1984, Gottschild moved to Philadelphia after securing tenure at Temple. She met Brown, who introduced her to numerous important figures in the local dance scene. "Sure enough," said Gottschild. "I find out there's this whole black culture I had no idea about."
By 1985, Gottschild had compiled lots of material about Brown and the story of dance. Her manuscript for a book on the subject was rejected at the time by Temple U. Press.
Since then, she has co-authored a textbook and published three other books, "The Black Dancing Body: A Geography from Coon to Cool" (Palgrave Macmillan, 2003), "Waltzing in the Dark: African American Vaudeville and Race Politics in the Swing Era" (Palgrave Macmillan, 2000) and "Digging the Africanist Presence in American Performance: Dance and Other Contexts" (Greenwood, 1996).
Her work on Brown sat for more than two decades before a few years ago, when she "somehow returned to the material."
Born in Harlem, Gottschild, 69, lived in the East Village in New York City during the 1960s. A few years earlier, when she was in high school, while in the south protesters marched for civil rights or conducted sit-ins at stores like Woolworth's, Gottschild participated in sit-ins in New York, carried out in collaboration with the protests in the south. "I was as much a hippie as I was a civil rights protester," she said.
An honors student, Gottschild skipped eighth grade before attending the same high school in New York as did Colin Powell and Alan Greenspan. In 1963, at 20, she graduated from the City College of New York (now CUNY) with a degree in contemporary culture, a major she created herself. Her course load included a concentration in romance languages and 20th-century studies like art, classical music and the philosophy of ethics.
Her introduction to dance came a few years earlier, when in high-school she was offered the chance to take dance classes instead of gym. Her teacher had been an extra for the Martha Graham Dance Company in New York. Gottschild was hooked.
By 1961, she was studying with Donya Feuer and Paul Sanasardo in Chelsea. Her professional theater career began in 1964, when she started to study, teach and perform with the Mary Anthony Dance Theater, also in Manhattan.
Gottschild then spent time abroad in Helsinki, Stockholm and London as an independent choreographer, performer and educator. That's when, in the late '60s, she was introduced to the Open Theater, an avant-garde theater group in London with social overtones in its work. She started as a teacher and stayed on to do a number of workshops as her interests in theater developed.
Socio-politically charged work is a recurring theme in Gottschild's writings, and the story of dance from segregation through the modern era is a socio-politically charged narrative. In 1981, she earned her Ph.D. from the performance studies department at New York University. She started to teach at Temple U. in 1982 and commuted between the Big Apple and the City of Brotherly Love before moving to Philadelphia two years later.
Gottschild said her mission is to bring the African American quotient in American culture to the forefront. Her quest is "to have this quotient acknowledged, celebrated and honored by the mainstream white culture and the black culture. That mission is important because mainstream culture has appropriated many aspects of black culture in dance and beyond."
Gottschild's career is studded with awards, such as the 2001 Congress in Research and Dance Award for Outstanding Scholarly Dance Publication, for "Waltzing in the Dark," among others. Last year, she received a production grant from the Pew Center for Arts & Heritage through Dance Advance to finish her work on Brown.
She still performs with choreographer and husband, Hellmut Gottschild. The two coined "movement theater discourse," a term that refers to a theatrical piece that involves dance movement, poetry, reading and more. Her daughter, Amel Larrieux, is a soul and R&B singer and keyboardist.
In January, Gottschild hosted an event in recognition of "Joan Meyers Brown and the Audacious Hope," at the Church of St. Martin in the Fields. During the last week is January she was interviewed in her home for WHYY-TV's Friday Arts program, which should air in May. The following day that same week, she was interviewed on 90.1 WRTI-FM for the Tavis Smiley Show, a conversation that aired through Feb. 3 nationwide. She will read locally, Sunday, Feb. 12, 2 p.m., at the Big Blue Marble Bookstore, 551 Carpenter Lane in Mt. Airy (215-844-1870 or www..bigbluemarblebooks.com).
"Blacks have every right to do ballet and play Beethoven, as white folks do to play James Brown and boogie down," said Gottschild.

OUTLOOK: The Jesuits have 13 returning players, one of the best players in the state in White (98 career points) among other offensive weapons, an experienced and cohesive defense and a couple of juniors (Chris Gutierrez, Matt Beck) out to replace graduated goalie Riley Wikman. They're one of the teams to beat, as always.
Notre Dame-Fairfield
COACH: Steve Hetherman
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. D Pete Petrino, Sr. LW/D Matt Heim, Jr. LW Christian LaCroix, Sr. G Scott Kline, Jr. D Gregg Ferris
OUTLOOK: Hetherman took over for legendary coach Marty Roos in the middle of last season. He intends for the Lancers to be a "hard-working, no-nonsense team."
Notre Dame-West Haven
COACH: Bill Gerosa
2011-12 RECORD: 20-3-1 (Division I state champion)
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. F Greg Zullo, Sr. F Kyle Thibault, Sr. D Darren Capobianco, Sr. D Cam Hotchkiss, Sr. G Paul Sliwinski, Sr. G Luc Amatruda, Jr. F Billy Vizzo, Jr. D Eric Austin
OUTLOOK: There's a lot of talent back for the Green Knights from their first state title in 10 years, including both goalies and a bunch of the forwards who made them hard to play against last season.
St. Joseph
COACH: Marty Crouse
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Jr. F Christian Keator, Sr. D Andrew Gore, Jr. F Ryan Corcoran, Sr. D Sean Smith, Soph. F Colin Powell, Jr. F Sean Hurley
OUTLOOK: This may be the Cadets' deepest team, with some underclassmen stepping in to give the team three solid lines. Junior goalie Marc VanEtten could get a challenge from a couple of sophomores.
West Haven
COACH: Joe Morrell
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. F Austin Hansen, Jr. F Jim Morrissey, Jr. D Alex Scranton, Sr. F Brandon Cangiano, Jr. F Jaeson Puleo
OUTLOOK: The Blue Devils need players to step up all over the ice to replace a lot of leaders who graduated. But a lot of these players were key parts of a team that reached the state semifinals. Mike Savino and Anthony Lanziero look to take over in goal from graduated Justin Shepard.
COACH: Gary Lindgren
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. G Nick Nuzzolo, Sr. D Eric Dykun, Jr. D Ryan Hauser, Jr. D Johnny Uscilla, Jr. F Adam Shea, Sr. F Dane Simone, Jr. F John Crocker, Jr. F Brett McNeil, Sr. F Patch Flynn, Jr. F Keating Seymour
OUTLOOK: The Spartans move down after two years of Division I hockey, back to a division they won in 2008 and 2010. The schedule remains tough, though, so having the likes of Nuzzolo, Dykun and Shea back will be a boon.
COACH: Mark Pettorini
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. C Mike Aquila, Sr. D Dan Silvestri, Jr. LW Kevin Robinson, Jr. D Conor Scharlop, Sr. C Matt Larouche, Sr. G Connor Frawley
OUTLOOK: Life's never easy for a D-II team in the FCIAC, but Fairfield has a good bunch of players returning, including Frawley in net and some depth all around. The Mustangs have potential.
COACH: Sal Follo
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Jr. F Zach White, Jr. F Will Vitelli, Jr. D Ben Lavallee, Sr. D Gerald Villecco, Soph. D Jonathan DePascale, Jr. G John DePalma, Jr. G Noah Ericson
OUTLOOK: The Indians will look for their goalies, replacing the graduated Matt White, to make stops and their defense to limit the stops they have to make. They're expecting balanced scoring.
COACH: Paul Esposito
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. D Tyler Hanley, Sr. F Chris Erikson, Sr. F Parker Rodbell, Jr. D Matt Sabia, Jr. F Zach Waller, Jr. F Conner Hanley, Jr. F Hayden Savoia, Jr. D Brian Gregory, Jr. D Dan Harrison, Jr. D Jack Martin, Jr. F Cooper McLean
OUTLOOK: The Nighthawks expect a lot of close games, and with a smaller roster, they're hoping for health and for consistent intensity. Junior Patrick McLoughlin takes over in goal from the graduated Mike Allwein.
COACH: Ralph Unker
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. D Liam O'Leary, Sr. F Zach Speed, Jr. F Sean Stewart, Jr. D Eric Zurmuehle, Jr. G William Engelhart, Soph. F Jack Mendillo, Soph. F Ryan Garwicki
OUTLOOK: The Wreckers had no luck with injuries last year, then graduated several of the players who helped them up from Division III two years ago. That doesn't mean Unker's not optimistic. The team had some nice preseason wins and has the talent to be competitive -- with health.
COACH: Greg Maxey
2011-12 RECORD: 17-9 (Division II state champion; FCIAC Tier II champion)
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. G Matthew Paolini, Sr. F A.J. DiMasi, Sr. F Sean Gallagher, Sr. F Brendan McGill, Jr. F Brendan Strobel, Soph. D Sam Watson, Soph. D Jake Crowe
OUTLOOK: The Eagles return their goalie, but they graduated a lot from a team that ran the table in the postseason. They're very young on defense and they'll need several forwards to pick up their offensive production to replace scorers like graduated standout Michael Ahearn.
COACH: Pete Maxfield
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. F Tim Eng, Sr. F Dan Cirino, Sr. D Chris Van Camp, Sr. D Andrew Mallozzi, Jr. G Thierry Jean, Soph. F Charlie Berry, Soph. D Will Sinsigalli, Soph. D J.P. Shimko
OUTLOOK: With a solid goalie and an experienced defense (Eng moves from defense to center), the Falcons should have their own end covered. If they can produce offense from a young but deep lineup, they'll be in good shape.
COACH: Andy Townsend
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. F Luke Butkovsky, Soph. F Charlie Christo, Jr. F Joe DaMota, Soph. F Shane Dushay, Jr. F Dan Zakrzewski, Jr. D Christian Suda, Sr. G Owen Bowler
OUTLOOK: Last year's young team was racked by injury but still had a nice season. The Panthers are optimistic about this year, with a lot of players back from last season.
COACH: Dan Feighan
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Sr. D Will Ayles, Sr. F Alex Farriss, Sr. D Anthony Arena, Jr. G Anthony Chiaramonte, Jr. F Ryan Suchland, Jr. F Joe Deering, Soph. F Lars Hammer
OUTLOOK: The team has a deeper roster than in recent years and will look to build in a tough league. It'll play its home games at the new SoNo Ice House.

Gabe's in the kitchen baking. Let me just say that again. Gabe. My Gabe. My sweet husband, is in the kitchen baking. While I sit on the couch doing absolutely nothing except letting my mind shut-off and unwind from a rambunctious, albeit, typical day.
You see, my husband doesn't do a lot of baking, let alone cooking. Sure he makes a mean quesadilla – tortillas perfectly crisped with a generous splash of butter in the hot skillet, cheese uniformly melted through and through and just the right amount of Cholula on the side. But baking, I don't remember the last time I've seen this.
how he bakes
What's even more astonishing is that I have not tried to micro-manage one bit. I did, however take out his butter for him at the moment he made mention of wanting to bake cookies. But rather than insisting he cream the butter and sugar longer or make sure he scraped the bowl making sure the batter just so I am relishing this moment. Taking in the sweet smells of cinnamon as they make their way to the couch, teasing me into thinking the cookies are ready when I know they have yet to be pulled from the oven. The comforting smell of caramelizing sugar assures me the time is near. I hear the kettle start to shake signaling the boiling water is ready to drip through the Chemex.
Beep. Beep. Beep.
Finally the oven sends out the alarm. I remain seated. The last drips of 200º water (Gabe is fastidious about coffee brewing) passes through the freshly ground coffee. And still I sit. Knowing that if I sit hear long enough freshly baked cookies will arrive, as will a cup of coffee in my favorite cup – he knows me so well.
my cup, his cup
Sure enough – cookies within arms reach, coffee in the other hand. He sits down next to me and turns on The Cosby Show. I love this man and he loves me.
the view from where I sit (Baron and I made a Candy shop today – in the background – we'll tell you about it soon)
This recipe comes directly from SmittenKitchen who adapted it from Martha (Stewart, that is). Unlike his wife, Gabe follows a recipe to a "T". While I was just going to keep my mouth shut and "oohhh" and "ahhh" over how wonderful the cookies were – and they really were, Gabe came to the same conclusion I did – they need a touch more salt. Gabe suggests adding a bit of salt to the sugar/cinnamon mixture so you'll get a whisper of a salty tang in the midst of the spicy, sugary crackle. Did I mention that I love this man?
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
16 tablespoons (2 stick or 8 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 3/4 cups sugar, plus more if needed
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon, plus more if needed
2 large eggs
Preheat the oven to 400°, with one rack in top third and one rack in bottom third of oven. Line baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper; set aside.
Sift together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine butter and 1 1/2 cups sugar. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down sides of bowl. Add eggs, and beat to combine. Add dry ingredients, and beat to combine. (SmittenKitchen suggests chilling the dough – we were too impatient)
In a small bowl, combine remaining 1/4 cup sugar and the ground cinnamon (and salt – if you so choose). Use an ice-cream (or spoons) scoop to form balls of the dough, and roll in cinnamon sugar. Place about two inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the cookies are set in center and begin to crack (they will not brown), about 10 minutes, rotating the baking sheets after five minutes. Transfer the sheets to a wire rack to cool about five minutes before transferring the cookies to the rack. If stored in an air tight container these cookies will keep for one week. Ha. That's funny.

Alexandria, Va. (May 13, 2014) — The National School Boards Association (NSBA) honors the 60th anniversary of the landmark Brown v. Board of Education ruling by calling on America's school boards, parents and communities to continue to ensure that public education is a right made available to all students on equal terms.
"The 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision catalyzed education reform and reminds us to be ever vigilant in challenging segregation to maintain a civil society," said NSBA Executive Director Thomas J. Gentzel. "School boards believe that every child in America should be able to attend a great public school where they live—no exceptions, no excuses."
The urgency of the 60th anniversary is that segregation is not an issue of yesteryear – it is a growing concern today. While the Brown v. Board decision made clear the inherent inequality of a separate educational system based on race, today the data show that many areas have been resegregating. NSBA is particularly concerned about the impact of resegregation for schools in underserved communities. Research shows that students learn more—both academically and socially—in settings where their peers may be of a different race and have different life experiences.
In a special report on the Brown decision, NSBA's flagship magazine, American School Board Journal (ASBJ), reports that the number of schools with a minority enrollment above 90 percent has climbed precipitously. In a video segment, ASBJ shows the legacy of Brown and the challenges that the Pittsburgh school district currently faces in integrating its schools when most of its neighborhoods are highly segregated. ASBJ also has created a timeline documenting major events and court cases involving racial issues in public education.
NSBA is encouraging public schools across the country to mark the anniversary with an appropriate ceremony and remembrance. Through a resolution issued by our Board of Directors on behalf of this nation's 90,000 school board members, NSBA and its state associations are promoting district-level activity that activates students' personal commitment to democracy and recognizes the contributions of civil rights leaders.
NSBA's Council of Urban Boards of Education also is commemorating this important anniversary with a year-long focus on special programming focusing on excellence, equity, and unity to advance urban education.
"The mission of the National School Boards Association to advocate for equity and excellence remains ever-vigilant as we mark the 60th anniversary of the Brown v. Board of Education decision," said NSBA President Anne M. Byrne, a school board member from New York's Nanuet Union Free School District. "School board leadership is essential to protect our public schools and demand that equitable funding and equitable resources be made available so that each child has the opportunity to achieve, no matter where they live."
# # #
Note to reporters: A copy of the ASBJ timeline documenting major events and court cases involving racial issues in public education is available as a document for use. Please contact Linda Embrey for the file.
The National School Boards Association (NSBA) is the leading advocate for public education and supports equity and excellence in public education through school board leadership. NSBA represents state school boards associations and their more than 90,000 local school board members throughout the U.S. Learn more at: www.nsba.org.

Rays back Hellickson, end Fenway drought
BOSTON -- It was the first of many, the Rays will hope: A win with Wil Myers' fingerprints on it.
Jeremy Hellickson turned a sharp corner, rebounding from his worst start of the season to spin six innings of two-run ball, and Myers closed the door in the seventh inning, driving in a pair with a two-out double on an 0-2 count as the Rays finally won at Fenway Park, taking a 6-2 victory to avoid a three-game sweep.View Full Game Coverage
BOSTON -- It was the first of many, the Rays will hope: A win with Wil Myers' fingerprints on it.
Jeremy Hellickson turned a sharp corner, rebounding from his worst start of the season to spin six innings of two-run ball, and Myers closed the door in the seventh inning, driving in a pair with a two-out double on an 0-2 count as the Rays finally won at Fenway Park, taking a 6-2 victory to avoid a three-game sweep.View Full Game Coverage
It was their first win in Boston in six tries this season.
"We have to beat these guys," manager Joe Maddon said. "You have to beat the people in front of you in the division, obviously. We've done a pretty good job over the years; this year has been awkward.
"Hopefully this is the kind of game that can push you in the right direction."
The first Major League RBIs for Myers came at a good time. Entering the seventh inning with a 3-2 lead, Evan Longoria plated a run with a single to left field off reliever Craig Breslow. James Loney followed with a double, and Myers stepped up with two outs and two runners in scoring position.
Myers quickly fell behind 0-2 against Alex Wilson, looking at a fastball over the plate and swinging out of his shoes on a slider off the plate. He then roped a fastball to right field, sprinted around first and pulled up at second for his first career extra-base hit.
"That hit by Wil is a big hit," Maddon said. "Those add-on runs are significant in this ballpark, because they can come back at any moment.
"He ran better than I had been told. He threw better than I had been told. He's a good defender. He's an athlete, is what he is. And as he gets more comfortable out there, he's going to be a fine outfielder. He's the proverbial five-tool guy, maybe six tools with the makeup. You can see the power there. He's on the right path."
Myers finished 1-for-4, and is 2-for-11 through his first three Major League games, but his two-run double put the Red Sox away.
"The seventh inning was probably the pivotal point," said Boston manager John Farrell. "We were in a one-run ballgame, and particularly the RBI 0-2 base-hit to Myers, that gave them enough of a spread to keep us in check."
Hellickson looked much better after allowing eight runs in one inning against the Royals his last time out. He needed just 88 pitches to get through six innings, walking none and allowing two runs while striking out four. He pitched quickly and efficiently, only getting hurt by a pair of infield hits by Jonny Gomes that drove in both Boston runs.
"I'm right where I want to be," said Hellickson, who hasn't walked a batter in four games as he lowered his ERA to 5.50 on the season. "Like I've been saying, I'm just trying to eliminate that big inning I've been giving up. Tonight, it was good to see."
Offensively, the meat of Tampa Bay's lineup came through, as the No. 2 through No. 6 spots combined to go 10-for-23 with five runs and six RBIs, including a solo homer from Desmond Jennings in the first inning. Ben Zobrist and Longoria followed with singles, and Loney launched a sacrifice fly to right field to drive in another.
Jose Molina scored in the bottom of the fifth, capping off a 3-for-4 night, just the third time in two years he's posted a three-hit game. The 6-foot, 250-pound catcher hustled from second base to score, and Maddon joked "the vortex almost pulled me into his jet stream."
Molina slid in safely under the throw from Jacoby Ellsbury.
"I think I did one of those Matrix kind of moves," said the catcher, not the fastest of runners.
Maddon was happy to see his players in a good mood before they head to New York, where they'll begin a four-game set with the Yankees on Thursday.
The Rays are keeping their heads above water in the American League East with a 37-35 record.
"Mentally, as we walk into Yankee Stadium tomorrow, it can only help," Maddon said. "I like the fact that nobody was in any kind of panic mode. Everybody came in today focused, ready to play. That was a tough day yesterday. That was tough for the Red Sox too, but they won two. So that was nice that we were able to come back, put that in the rearview mirror and play as well as we played."

Joseph's Colony: 1905 - 1930
Pictures and Pages on the Silver Jubilee of St. Joseph's Colony
Compiled by the Oblate Priests in the colony. Translation from German to English by Lambert and Tillie Schneider, 1930, 215 pages, 80 illustrations, 2 maps, softcover.
Click here to view photographs from book
The Germans from Russia Heritage Collection is pleased to present this important publication, St. Joseph's Colony: 1905 - 1930. St. Joseph's Colony was very important in the settlement of the Catholic Germans from Russia south of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The translators have provided an important work of great value to the missionary work and settlement on the Saskatchewan prairies. Many of the German-Russian immigrants came from the Black Sea and Volga German colonies of South Russia.
In the Translator's Preface, Lambert and Tillie Schneider state the following: The original book St. Joseph's Kolonie, 1905 - 1930, was written by Father W. Schulte, O.M.L., who refers to himself occasionally during the text as the Chronist (chronicler). In his modesty, he omitted his name on the title page. In translating the work, every effort was made to preserve the mood and essence of the German expressions. However, as in any translation, the subjective qualities are often modified and sometimes even lost."
"It is hoped that this English version of the book, which was published in 1930 in the German script, will awaken memories in many of us and provide the younger generations with a general picture of the hardships endured by the pioneer missionaries and settlers in St. Joseph's Colony in Western Canada."
Interesting sections in the book include: "Description of the Country," "Spiritual Care," and "Statistics of the Colony." The founding, growth and development of the parishes within the St. Joseph's Colony include: Broadacres, Denzil, Carmelheim, Grosswerder, Handel, Holy Rosary, Kerrobert, Leipzig, Macklin, Primate, Revenue, St. Donatus, St. Francis, St. John, St. Peter, Salvador, Scott, Tramping Lake, and Wilkie.
Here are the statistics in March, 1930, for the St. Joseph's Colony: 1,326 Catholic families of which 1,186 were German, 11 Oblate Priests, 17 parishes, 5 missions, 17 churches, 2 church basements, 2 chapels, 2,026 Catholic school children, 50 Catholic school teachers, one convent at Leipzig, one Catholic hospital at Macklin, and sisters in Leipzig, Macklin, Revenue, and Tramping Lake.
Even the advertising found at the end of the book are most interesting: The Catholic Colonization Association of Winnipeg, Manitoba; Volksvereins Deutsch Canadischer Katholisen; Catholic Immigrant Aid Society; Hamburg-Amerika Linie Schiffsfarten Hamburg nach Kanada direkt (advertising are in German and English languages).

Energy Secretary Steven Chu's admission, on Thursday, that he approved more taxpayer money to the financially strapped solar panel company Solyndra, after it defaulted on a $535 million loan from that agency. Big Three network coverage? Zero. This is just a continuing pattern of ABC, CBS and NBC barely touching the bourgeoning scandal for the Obama administration.
What initially began as an embarrassing collapse of one of the green companies touted by the Obama has turned into a story of coverup of still more stimulus money being wasted on the left's pet cause of climate change. Yet, as a search of Nexis shows, the networks have glanced over the Solyndra story with the Big Three networks running a total of just eight total full stories, two anchor briefs and a couple of mentions on their evening and morning news shows, since the company declared bankruptcy in August.
When the CEO and CFO of Solyndra, on September 23, invoked their Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination, before the House Energy and Commerce Committee's Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, the networks mostly skipped over the news. As the MRC's Brent Baker reported, "neither ABC nor NBC mentioned the development Friday night and CBS allocated a mere 25 seconds."
NBC's Lisa Myers did note on the September 24 Today show: "Images of its executives taking the Fifth today are not the optics the White House had hoped for," but neither ABC nor CBS advanced that angle on the story on their morning shows.
Myers, to her credit, explained the severity of the story as seen in the following excerpt:
MATT LAUER: Top executives from a now bankrupt solar energy company who were given half a billion in taxpayer loans by the Obama administration are appearing at a congressional hearing this morning but they are pleading the Fifth. NBC's senior investigative correspondent Lisa Myers is in San Antonio with the latest on this. Hi, Lisa. Good morning.
LISA MYERS: Good morning to you, Matt. This company was the poster child for the President's green jobs initiative. So, images of its executives taking the Fifth today are not the optics the White House had hoped for. Taxpayers now stand to lose as much as a half billion dollars. Solyndra executives personally showed the President around their operation last year. Top executives promised to testify today, under oath, before House investigators. Their lawyers now say they will show up but decline to answer questions and invoke their Fifth Amendment protections against self-incrimination.
FRED UPTON (R-MI): They have now broken their word yet again we're not going to stop until we get all the answers.
MYERS: As recently as this summer, Solyndra officials gave Congress an upbeat report. Now Republicans and Democrats feel deceived.
REP. HENRY WAXMAN (D-CA): In July, the CEO of Solyndra told me that company was doing very well. They were even going to double their revenues. And a month later they went into bankruptcy. I feel like I was misled.
MYERS: So far the investigation has revealed that even before the $535 million loan guarantee was approved two years ago, there were warnings that the project potentially runs out of cash in September 2011, which it did. Another key point came early this year when Solyndra was in trouble and the administration debated whether to pour in still more taxpayer money. In a January E-mail, a staffer suggested it might be better to let the company fail. "If Solyndra defaults down the road, the optics will arguably be worse later than they would be today," he wrote. "Questions will be asked why the administration made a bad investment not once, but twice."
UPTON: They should have stopped then knowing they were playing with taxpayer money, not funny money.
MYERS: Instead the administration decided to let Solyndra draw down $75 million more in taxpayer loans. And to lure private investigators, it agreed that some investors would take priority over taxpayers in a bankruptcy which is highly unusual. Administration officials say they believe they made the right decision at the time, that giving Solyndra more money may have enabled the company to succeed if solar prices had not plummeted. The FBI is now investigating whether the company intentionally misled about its finances. The company says it did not. Matt?

Using Copac for your Research
Copac brings together the catalogues of over 100 major UK research libraries: national, academic, and specialist. From these catalogues we create the c.40 million records on the Copac database. With material dating from the early middle-ages to the present day, and in hundreds of languages, you can be sure that Copac will help you find material that's relevant to your research.
Why use Copac?
Working on a research project will often require access to more books and other material than your local library holds. Searching Copac's extensive database of UK library holdings allows you to locate relevant items quickly and easily.
Copac can not only help you to locate items you have already identified, it can help you to discover items, collections, and even libraries that you might not have known about. For instance, Copac is the only online catalogue of the holdings of the National Trust libraries, which contain many fascinating collections of rare and valuable books, including George Bernard Shaw's working library.
Getting started searching Copac
Copac offers three search options: quick search; main search with more search options; and a map search, specifically designed to help you locate cartographic material.
You also have the choice of logging into Copac. This allows you to save your search history, annotate records, and build up a personalised online bibliography.
Consulting material
Copac does not hold any materials. This means that once you have identified the material you want to consult, you will usually need to arrange an inter-library loan with your local library. You can do this at a local public library or your local institution library, and there may be a charge for this service. Not all material on Copac is available for inter-library loan, especially early or rare material. If this is the case, you will need to contact the holding institution and make arrangements to visit and consult the material.
Contact details for the institutions are linked from each record, or can be found on our Libraries page.
