Route 36 history
U.S. Route 36 stretches over 1,400 miles from Uhrichsville, Ohio, in the foothills of the Appalachians to Estes Park, the "Gateway to the Rockies." Before the coming of the "interstates," it was America's connection between the Midwest and the Rockies.
Historically, the highway closely traces the middle one-third of what was once a transcontinental highway (the Pikes Peak Ocean to Ocean Highway) that ran from New York's Times Square through Colorado to the Gold Gate Bridge in San Francisco.
The Pikes Peak Ocean to Ocean Highway was promoted primarily by boosters from Colorado, Kansas, and midwestern states as an alternative to the Lincoln Highway and the National Old Trails Road. In particular, the "Pikes Peak" was an answer to the Lincoln Highway Association that had by-passed Colorado and the northern counties of Kansas and Missouri by routing the Lincoln through Iowa, Nebraska, and Wyoming.
In 1926, U.S. highways were numbered and the "named trails" became a thing of the past. The transcontinental named trails were broken up. U.S. Route 36 went through several east-west extensions as highways were built and improved. Its current expanse from Uhrichsville, Ohio, to Estes Park, Colorado, has been in place since 1978.
For more information about the book and the author see www.us36guidebook.com.
DENVER—Denver-based author Allan Ferguson will appear Friday, Oct. 4, 2-4 p.m., at the Piqua Public Library, 116 W High St. on the plaza in Piqua to sign and discuss his new book "Route 36: Ohio to Colorado—America's Heartland Highway."
Ferguson's guidebook details the drive on Route 36 through six states, laying claim to the title "America's Heartland Highway" and the next Great American Road Trip.
"The great thing about Route 36," Ferguson says, "is, first, it's right here on our doorstep. Second, it's a largely two-lane experience far more pleasant and interesting than travel on the interstates. It's also an historic highway of national significance.
"Unlike better-known highways like Route 66 and the Lincoln Highway," he said, "Route 36 hasn't been obliterated or obscured by the interstate highway system. Route 66 was de-commissioned by the federal government in 1985. In contrast, Route 36 is still there to be driven, taking us through a host of villages, towns, and small cities from Ohio to Colorado. The only large cities on the route are Indianapolis and Denver."
Ferguson touts the "remarkable swath of American history" to be found on Route 36—icons like Annie Oakley, "Mad" Anthony Wayne, Abraham Lincoln, Mark Twain, Walt Disney, General John J Pershing, "Cy" Young, and the "Unsinkable" Molly Brown. His informational slide show features sites on the highway with background history on the making of Route 36.
Ferguson's book includes six state chapters, two chapters on transportation history, essays describing 45 towns, recommended side trips, 164 images, a bibliography, a chronology, and an index.
Ferguson is also the author of "Golf in Scotland: A Travel-Planning Guide with Profiles of 74 Great Courses." His books are available at www.amazon.com and www.us36guidebook.com.


text: Product Spotlight: LiftMaster® 8500/8500W Posted: Sat, Mar 24, 2018 When your overhead garage door opener is cramping your work or storage space, wouldn't it be nice to mount that machine on the wall instead? Now you can. Replace the overhead ceiling unit with the LiftMaster 8500W or 8500 units that work on the wall instead. How do they work, and how do you benefit with the LiftMaster 8500 series? Keep reading to find out! Jackshaft Opener With enough wall space between the door rails and the side wall, you can install a LiftMaster 8500 opener. It attaches to the shaft that supports the torsion spring(s), so rather than operate the door using the overhead trolley system, you can tuck the opener out of the way and put that headroom to better use. The 8500 opener can lift up to 850-pound doors, so it also works well in commercial applications. Super Quiet By eliminating long chains or belts, the jackshaft opening system remains whisper quiet. It's perfect if your home has bedrooms above or adjacent to the garage or if you just don't like all that rattle and roll of a traditional opener. MyQ® Technology For homeowners who prefer to take advantage of remote activation technology, LiftMaster enables them to control their openers and some internal lights with MyQ. This wi-fi enabled gateway allows you to manipulate the door from your smartphone or computer. Wherever you have internet access, MyQ lets you remotely open the door for visitors or check to see if you remembered to close the door on the way out. MyQ also connects to some of your lights inside the home so you can control them while on vacation or have them on for you when you arrive home. Just register your devices on the free MyQ app, configure your preferences and enjoy the peace of mind of total control of your door and lights from anywhere in the world where you have internet connectivity. 8500 The main difference between the two models is one of them has integrated wi-fi control and battery back up. If remote connectivity isn't your thing, the LiftMaster 8500 will suffice. However, if you ever wish to upgrade to the MyQ system, the 8500 gains the same remote operability as the 8500W with the purchase and configuration of accessories. You can start out basic, but you have options to upgrade in the future with the 8500. Otherwise, the 8500 comes with the following features: Soft start and stop — no jarring action Battery back-up capability, but you buy the battery separately Remote controls Wall-mount control panel MyQ with purchase of gateway accessory New code generation with each click so crooks capturing your signal can't operate your door Electronic limit/Auto-Force, for automatic adjustments according to the conditions affecting the door. Timer to close Three radio bands A 200-watt-equivalent, remote control light with motion detector A deadbolt lock so burglars can't force the door open Compatibility with LiftMaster's HomeLink® technology with purchase of accessories Safety stop Blinking lights and beeps when you're about to close the door remotely Lifetime motor warranty Five-year parts warranty 8500W The LiftMaster 8500W product has all the features of the 8500 plus the following: Built-in wi-fi. No need for a separate connectivity device Built-in battery back-up Automatic deadbolt lock when the door closes Three-button remote control, backward compatible with all post-1993 LiftMaster openers Wall-mount smart control panel with an LCD display The 8500 series wall-mounted door opener can solve your overhead space problem while offering all the conveniences of a top-rated smart home device. American Garage Door installs all LiftMaster models. Please contact us today to schedule a free consultation and estimate. For more information on garage door openers, please see our other articles on this blog. Tags: Liftmaster, Product, Spotlight, Garage Door, Opener, Features

Thank you Carl - and GOOD RIDDANCE!
And Carl's "gifts" to my neighborhood - Southwest Center City - are a brand-new vinyl-clad project (which we strongly protested both on architectural and traffic safety concerns) built with federal stimulus money along with his foreclosure (his condo is in our Naval Square complex). Nothing like paying a guy $300,000 a year to help ruin a thriving, re-developing neighborhood. This is big government corruption at its worst, felt right down to the neighborhood level. Thank you for being such a great neighbor, Carl - and GOOD RIDDANCE!

Thursday, April 3, 2008
What I have really been wanting to write about this Love Thursday is a place where I spent a lot of time growing up. I've had this post running around in my head for a while now, but haven't written it out. I'm sort of afraid that I won't get my point across, or it will sound incredibly sappy. So, with that in mind I feel like I might as well just write it and move on.
I love that when I was growing up I got to spend a lot of time at my Grandparent's farm. This post is a love letter to that time in my life.
Some of my favorite memories happened on a farmstead in a very rural area of North Dakota. It's the farmstead where my mother grew up and where my grandparents spent much of their married life. As I became a teen I fought about having to spend time there, I dreaded weekend trips and as our lives got busier we went less often. Now, looking back, I wish that I could still go there.
The farm itself wasn't fancy in any manner. The house, started in 1899 I believe, was added on to for the next half century or so. It was small and the basement scared the begeeberz out of me. But it was always spotless. Grandma was an immaculate housekeeper and as a child it never occurred to me to be worried about mice, or bugs, or anything else. (Except for the crickets, we couldn't keep them out of the place, and I'm still terrified of them!) The furnishing weren't fancy and weren't new. The kitchen still had an old yellow table that now would be quite collectible. The floor I remember most was the black and white tile blocks. There are pictures of me talking on an old rotary style phone sitting on that floor when I was a baby. The living room had an old black vinyl couch and a fun red circular style chair. The dining room had an old blond wood table and matching hutch; that furniture also matched the bedroom furniture in my grandparents room. There was an ancient stone screened in porch on one side of the house that we sometimes got to play in. Up a steep, steep set of stairs were the three bedrooms that family stayed in when we visited and where Papa made me take naps. They weren't furnished with much more than a bed, but there was room to play with toys when it rained and we couldn't be outside. In fact there was room for all of the grandkids to pair up and pick on each other between rooms. (Hello cousins who read here! Please comment on your favorite parts of the farm!) I remember playing playing upstairs and listening to the rain hit the roof. I remember waking up to thunderstorms with Grandma coming upstairs to bring me down to their bed, so I didn't have to be upstairs while it was thundering in the middle of the night.
We spent a lot of our time at the farm outside. Papa and Grandma used to plant a big garden where we could sample fresh peas and carrots whenever we wanted. Grandma used to make huge meals for all of us. She was a fantastic cook. The yard was encircled about half way with lilac bushes. When I was a girl I used to dream of getting married there in the spring while the lilacs were blooming. My cousin, J, who now lives in Vermont (Hello!!), was the closest in age to me, and we used to get to stay at the farm together, sometimes for nearly a week. We had such fun making "stews" in the playhouse with all the junk we would gather from the yard. I used to get in trouble from Grandma for making J laugh too hard. I'm not sure I know why, but I did. Grandma would hang the wash on the line and when it was dry we would help her haul it to the kitchen table to fold it. The smell of that laundry was the best. We would play anti-I-over the playhouse, and Papa and Grandma would play along. As we got older the game moved to being played over the quonsets. We had a 3 wheel bicycle to drive each other around in, and old, old baseball bats and balls to play softball with in the middle of the yard. Sometimes even our Dad's would get involved in the game, and when Papa played we knew it would be a fun night.
There was a large screenhouse that was set up in the summer months. Our parents would sit there in the evenings with the Grandparents while all of their children ran around like maniacs opening and shutting the screendoor and letting the mosquitoes in. There was no A/C in the house, so it was hot! The screenhouse was a respite from the heat, often there was a dog or two there as well. Grandma would make popcorn (on the stove, with real butter!) for us to snack, plus there were nearly always home made cookies of some kind. It's a wonder I wasn't a fat kid.
My writing can't come close to conveying the love I feel for the farm. It was a place where I was spoiled, where family was together, and where my fondest memories of childhood were made. My Grandfather (Papa) and my aunt (and Godmother) are both gone now, and the memories I have of them from the farm are still strong. When I think of either of them, I think of the farm. I can't come close to explaining the wonders it holds for me, or the incredible memories. The pictures in my mind are still as vivid as the days I spent there. I can't remember most of my children's childhood, but my memories of the farm are still bright and incredibly beautiful. Sentimental, yes, but I wish I could go back for just one day and show my children the wonder that I felt for this place.

L - I loved this post so much. So many happy memories. You asked for our favorites, so here are a few of mine: I loved sitting on the front step shelling peas into an ice cream bucket (and eating half of them). I loved riding bikes out to the mailbox to get the mail. I loved helping Grama pack up lunch and coffee for Papa and our Dads, and driving out to the field in the pickup or grain truck to deliver it. I loved drinking milk out of a honey bear (remember those?!) and eating a cheese sandwich (on Grama's homemade bun) for a bedtime snack while Papa watched the news. I loved going into town with Grama to run errands. I loved it when Papa chased me ... and always caught me and tickled me! I loved riding the lawn mowers (when we were older). And ... I loved it when you made me laugh too hard. I think you can still make me do that, but we will have to see this summer, eh? :) Thank you for this post. It is a gift to all of us who will always love the farm. Love, j.

Mr 18 and Miss 14 drink their juice every morning from honey bears. That way I can have it in the fridge waiting for them when they get up. :) And Grandma's home made buns! YUM! And the doughnuts... delish! Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for this post L. It brought back so much joy and happiness for me, and happy tears to my eyes. Oh how I loved the farm and spending time there... I only wish I would have been able to take my daughter there. It was the place where I could just let my imagination run wild, and feel safe and secure surrounded by loving family. My favorites are all that you have listed. I love, love loved setting up forts in the Trees, riding the bike around and around and around the circle (which was really a teardrop shape), Taking Papa dinners in the field which often included corn on the cob, and we'd get to drive out to the field in the back of the pickup and eat our lunch hanging our feet off the end... Anti-I-over and softball were a blast. How about staying in the motor home they bought many years later, and freaking ourselves out at night? Cousins J, and J and I stayed many summers and had a great time playing Barbies, or on the rare occasion playing with kittens from a Mamma cat that showed up at the farm. We also spent a few visits collecting baby frogs in the sharmrocks that grew on the side of the house. Or the time that some of us went swimming in the sleugh and came back covered in mud! Grama had a hay day hosing us down! What a magical place, and wonderful gift our families gave us when they let us grow up and be free on the farm.

And Grandma letting us throw our corn cobs into the field! We were bad kids I tell you. Also loved finding old cow bones; although I guess that's probably weird, isn't it?

For this project, I want to draw my attention to writing 'aesthetic and evocative thick descriptions of personal and interpersonal experience' (Ellis et al. 2012). In terms of who I am in relation to this research, I am fairly separate from the project. If I wasn't taking Digital Asia as an elective, I wouldn't have any interest in this project. However: I am a university student who knows the importance of expanding knowledge.
My personal experiences within K-pop are limited – I know a few names of popular K-pop groups and that it's extremely popular. I have also picked up a few things regarding how the idols are 'trained'. But my project focuses on K-pop fans, and I don't know anything about fan culture in South Korea.
However, my understanding of fanbases and Western 'stan' (stalker/fan) culture aren't limited at all. Twitter is a popular tool for stan culture…

This is a sketch I did in the Pasticceria Tamborini in Turin.
I thought the cashier looked very confined behind her till.
I am currently lodging with a very nice Italian lady, Didi. I sketched her cat whilst having breakfast yesterday. I think you can tell I'm not a cat lover as it's not too good.
The plant is in the kitchen and I drew it for USK theme of Urban Flora. I decided to use colour only on the plant in order to highlight it.

Tomato and Coconut Curry Chickpea Stew
I will pretty much eat anything that involves curry and coconut so when I saw this recipe on A Saucy Kitchen, I couldn't to try it. The flavors remind me of an Indian Tikka Masala with tomatoes, curry powder, and coconut milk (or heavy cream) but in a hearty stew version with chickpeas, kale, and cauliflower. Not only is it delicious on it's own, it's also great over rice, quinoa, or couscous. And it freezes great for leftovers.

Amy Speace has a voice that sounds like a young Judy Collins. Her songwriter gift, however, is far too superior to the folk icon's lyrical skills. The first couplet that simply stops you in your tracks from Speace's new "Land like a Bird" CD is found in Ghost. This song concerns the way in which people enter and exit out of each other's lives. Some come and go quickly and hardly leave a trace. Then there are those that seem to haunt - like a ghost. Space describes one returning apparition as follows: "This time would be different, he swore it with the rapture of a baptized man/His words undressed her loneliness with a gospel built on sand."
Speace can hardly be called a country singer. She's more of a smart singer/songwriter in the mold of Shawn Colvin. Although her voice is pure and beautiful, which suggests Collins as a template; she also knows how to make her vocal cords tough when they need to be. As she sings, "When you ever gonna change for me," during Change for Me, it's done so with intensive pleading, which grows stronger and stronger as the song goes on.
She may not be a country singer by vocation, but she sure sounds like one during the Patsy Cline-esque It's Too Late to Call It a Night. The song is a slow burner, with slight touches of piano and guitar over a gently bumping bass line. If Speace's music doesn't haunt you like a ghost, you probably need to listen again - this time a lot more closely.

Today's enterprises are looking to accelerate their Digital Transformation initiatives. But even then, 90% of these goals are never met.
By turning to technology solutions providers to complement their existing team, companies can rent the expertise they need to make a smooth transition. These partnerships bridge the gap between technology strategy and execution. Successful firms often leverage an Agile Delivery Method and High Engagement Model to mitigate the risk of failing at critically important strategic goals.
A successful transformation often relies on a five-step process:
- Empathize and Define
- Discover and Analyze
- Enhance the Roadmap
- Prototype and Adopt
- Execute and Sustain
These steps are a foundation for programs in any of the three major areas for Digital Transformation:
- Engineering and Operations
- Sales and Marketing
- Enterprise Applications catering to the whole customer experience
Enterprise Data Systems
If your technology strategy includes cloud-based computing or Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), then you know that one of the advantages is the ability to scale your capacity up or down as needed. Gartner says, "CIOs and IT leaders should not be migrating everything toward cloud services, nor should they be sitting back and waiting for the market to settle. A prudent data center strategy incorporates the best of both worlds, for the right reasons, at the right time."
A successful program can achieve the following:
- Reduce operational overhead
- Get the most out of current and planned technology investments
- Align technology capabilities with business demands
- Reclaim employee cycles with Managed Support Services
- Recover systems after critical issues or security incidents
Software Lifecycle Management
Digital Architecture is a methodology that leverages the efficiencies of agile software development and DevOps automation, along with an analytics and reporting focus, to achieve a high degree of effectiveness in improving productivity and increase throughput.
Common outcomes include the following:
- Shorter time to market for new features
- Improved customer satisfaction
- Improved product quality
- Improved productivity and efficiency
- A highly iterative process that produces products closer aligned with business requirements
- Sustainable, scalable and reliable application lifecycle
Sales Compensation Management (ICM/SPM)
Effective sales compensation management is key to any sales organization's success. Make it easy for your team to manage all forms of compensation and commissions for salespeople, agents, and partners with one integrated solution. Enable fair incentives, ensure error-free results, and increase visibility with real-time analytics.
Gartner states, "By 2022, organizations using a sales performance management solution will use employee-facing digital assistants to handle 75% of compensation disputes."
Outcomes of this approach include the following:
- Reduced overpayment/underpayment, saving organizations 3% to 5% in compensation expense
- Increased scalability and performance through automation
- Increase sales representative (rep) performance by aligning compensation with corporate goals and objectives
- Optimization of business processes and compensation plan design
- Increased revenue/profitability growth through compensation plan design that is based on historical results
Salesforce Integrations
The Salesforce Platform is widely leveraged by organizations looking to develop can scale applications for a broad and geographically dispersed audience. A successful partner will understand the importance of platform standardization, as well as the business value of seamless integration of Enterprise systems and data. This approach is highly effective in achieving the maximum impact of Salesforce.com initiatives.
A successful Salesforce implementation provides the following beneoffice 365
- Access to industry-leading CRM platform and toolsets, global infrastructure
- Leverage common development languages like Ruby, Java, PHP and more
- Innovative UI/UX platforming for critical business information
- Integrated DevOps capabilities with common toolsets
- Simplified distribution of application portfolio to users as well as customers
K2 / Business Process Optimization
The K2 low-code process automation platform allows businesses to build and deploy automation across the business. A typical approach includes a detailed understanding of the platform, as well as an ability to engage the business in order to drive process optimization and productivity gains.
Optimizing business processes delivers many opportunities:
- Reduction in business process automation time
- Development costs reduced, more engagement with business users
- Improved business productivity gains and user experience
- Create insightful data points within business data across the organization
- Security and Governance over critical business data
SharePoint and Office 365
The Microsoft SharePoint platform has served as a cornerstone in the world of content management and business intelligence. As the industry has evolved, and the complexity of Enterprise data/systems and infrastructure has increased exponentially, and the Microsoft stack has led the way with insightful analytics and leading tools for feeding corporate data systems and businesses worldwide.
By focusing on solving real business challenges, you can achieve process optimizations that fit well with the Microsoft vision of using software t transform and innovate. Some benefits include the following:
- Access to industry leading and global cloud infrastructure, content management and integrated business intelligence
- Increased productivity by shortening time spent looking for key business data
- Easier collaboration with teammates, partners, and customers through portals and tools
- Mobile business productivity by on and offline access to key data, remote workforce
- Transformation of disparate data silos into insightful decisions, with Power BI-driven reporting and dashboards
SmarTek21's purpose is to develop and deliver technology solutions that accelerate our customers' performance and increase company value. With more than 100+ years of C-Level and Senior Leadership serving Tech, E-Commerce, Advertising, Telecom, Insurance, and Financial Services Sectors, and a team of 500 technology professionals in the United States and India, we can deliver on the promise to deliver Digital Transformation initiatives with Twice the Output, for Half the Cost.

To become Director of Research and Enterprise at Heriot-Watt University, Alicia Greated moved from Swindon's nexus of government research offices to Edinburgh – quite a small move compared to how far she has travelled to develop research excellence, enterprise and innovation on Britain's behalf.
Between 2008 and 2015 Alicia set up the RCUK's office in India, ran its China office and led programme delivery of international science and innovation partnerships for the UK's flagship £375m Newton Fund.
"YES definitely raised my awareness of enterprise and entrepreneurship. It was also one of my first chances to practise presentation skills."
Alicia has always believed strongly in taking action to make a difference in the world. While studying biochemistry at Glasgow University, Alicia got involved in conservation work. During holidays she travelled and worked, teaching in Kenya and, later, English in China, and working in a lab in Brazil. While writing up her PhD research in molecular genetics at Birmingham, she also trained to be a fitness instructor and taught salsa dancing.
She took part in one of the first Biotechnology YES competitions in 1997 and found many values and themes aligned with her own. "Sometimes in the work environment there can be an emphasis on individualism and competition. I feel I'm a natural collaborator, and this was a major theme during YES. I was in a great lab but mainly focused on just achieving my PhD. YES helped show the importance of leadership, autonomy and collaboration."
A contact from Biotechnology YES recommended Alicia apply for her "first real job" at the EPSRC. Encouraged to apply for a big promotion a year later, she became Head of Engineering, managing 20 people and a £100m budget. After five years she joined the AHRC as Associate Director, Research.
In 2008 Alicia took on the challenge of establishing the Research Councils UK (RCUK) office in India. As Director of RCUK India she recruited a new team and developed research collaborations with Indian universities and industry. "It was the most exciting opportunity," she says, "all about thinking about what you can achieve rather than what's difficult, having a clear strategy and vision, nurturing good relationships, and focusing on excellence."
After nearly four years there, she moved to Beijing to be Director of Research Councils UK, China, establishing closer cooperation with the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) and overseeing RCUK-funded joint research. She returned to the UK in 2014 to become Head of the Newton Programme Management Team at the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills.
Global research excellenceAlicia has championed research and innovation in senior roles at major UK funding bodies and now a top Scottish university. The Newton Fund's focusing of international aid to strengthen science and innovation capacity has helped unlock funding to support poverty alleviation through 15 UK delivery partners in collaboration with 15 partner countries.
Building relationshipsBetween the public and private sectors, from engineering and the physical sciences to the arts and humanities, and in India, China and developing countries including 4 Latin American states and 5 South-East Asian countries, Alicia nurtured strong, mutually beneficial research relationships.
Collaborative impactThe Newton Fund is the model for other partnership funding programmes that leverage the power of partnerships using aid funding and matched income from public and private sector sources to generate meaningful impact.

Sia Her - Hearing the Stories Behind the Story
Last year, I had the opportunity to meet with a group of Hmong American students, when I was invited to speak about my experiences as a Hmong American woman in a leadership position. These were young women, ages 15-18, struggling at home with cultural and gender-specific expectations, having difficulties in the classroom, and wanting more than anything to be seen, understood, and valued by their parents and others. They strive for recognition as more than just their failings which define them as simply either a worthless Hmong daughter or, in the alternative, as someone who is the 'model' minority.
I shared with the group that for as long as I could remember, I spent all my time reading and dreaming about the day when I would be strong enough to determine my own fate. To the best of my ability, I avoided acquiring the traits and skills of the dutiful daughter my Hmong mother dreamt of. For her part, my mother dedicated much energy and time to trying to change me, pointing out that all of my friends could sew perfectly and were married by age 14. As a response, I made a list of what I would take with me in my backpack should I decide to run away: my favorite Nancy Drew books and Benjamin Franklin's Almanac.
The participants laughed with cautious relief throughout my talk. After, they shared that their parents often tell them they are burdens and likely to dishonor the family, too, because they stay out with their friends, speak their mind, and wear "objectionable" clothing. Inside their ethnic community, they are not good enough Hmong daughters; inside the schools, they are not academically successful enough. As neither the "good Hmong daughter" nor the "model minority," these young women feel they belong nowhere.
"Is there really no place?" they cautiously asked, "for daughters who are Hmong but do not always come home directly after school to cook and clean; daughters who are seen and heard (in English mostly)?" Is there no place for daughters who spend time wondering how it is possible to feel so lonely in the midst of so many? How does one survive this journey?
These young women reaffirmed what many of us believe: our understanding of our Southeast Asian Minnesotan youth is not nuanced enough to enable us to meaningfully support them so that they thrive without meeting all of our expectations. We have yet to succeed in helping them to navigate the complex, rigid, and incompatible paradigms established by linguistically and culturally diverse communities.
It is tempting to view them as just a group of American youth of color about to fail, while who they really are is a mix of their immigrant/refugee parents and a whole lot more of America. In our time together, their choice of words, body language, and what they chose to share reveal that they desire their ethnic community's approval, strive to succeed despite their circumstances, and also just want to have fun. The tears threatening to fall from several participants' eyes indicate their determination to not buckle under the weight of the challenges they face and to make good use of the opportunities they have as Hmong Americans.
I concluded my talk on the note that it was only when I was much older that I understood—my parents' hurtful words and expectations/demands were their fears, hopes, and dreams for me bundled into one package and wrapped in a language the American in me had not learned to decode. In the end, I emphasized, "successful" people are not born successful. They fall before they rise, build and rebuild themselves, and seek to help others and themselves to become increasingly "culturally competent" in each other's stories so that one's calls for help are heard and understood by another.
A year after our meeting, I continue to hear that several of the young women still talk about how our time together empowered them to find comfort in belonging to no one paradigm, believing that this may very well be the answer to their question of "belonging" as American children of, as Ronald Takaki puts it, "strangers from a different shore." Their questions and comments then and today emphasize how critical it is for us to create safe and secure spaces for the intentional sharing of how our interactions impact the trajectory of one another's lives. To hear these young women tell stories from their point of view is akin to putting flesh on the skeleton that is often the preferred starting and ending point of the national Asian American narrative.

A splendid example of the universal lurking in the individual story. One of the gifts the humanities bring to our common life is wisdom about how "to navigate the complex, rigid, and incompatible paradigms established by linguistically and culturally diverse communities"--and those incompatible paradigms can often be found within a particular community, not just between communities--and indeed, even within an individual person.ReplyDelete
In an earlier blog post I referred to the observation of a friend of mine, that "we must become caretakers of one another's stories." Sia Her deepens this obligation, saying we need "to become increasingly 'culturally competent' in each other's stories." Taking care of another's story requires learning to navigate the paradigms!
A great post with a moving story about young Hmong girls, and thoughtful, but powerful descriptions of the conflicts between new paradigms and indisputably cultural wisdom profoundly embedded in our culture. Despite the challenges we continue to face, I am pleased with the extraordinary achievement and success of our young Hmong women, including my own daughters, which, in my estimation, outpace Hmong men in a lot of aspects. Yet, despite their successful careers in the public arena, Hmong women still cannot escape their traditional expectations in their homes and community.ReplyDelete
Hmong women have come a long way from the time I describe in my book, "...girls feel as if they were outsiders from birth." It is important that these posts are viewed with earnest interest and responded to with meaningful comments, even arguments.

6 Attributes of Successful Introverted Leaders
"Introverted" and "successful" are often thought of as antonyms. This is flawed thinking!
Introverts have a unique and strong leadership style, but may not feel like leaders in a culture that rewards charisma and confidence.
As an extroverted person, I am the first to say that there are many things we can learn from introverted leaders. They claim their success with a quiet strength — proving they have resilient qualities to offer the most challenging of corporate work cultures.
Here are 6 attributes that make introverted people successful leaders.
- Introverted leaders excel through small teams and one-on-one communication.
Have you ever watched an introverted leader handle a challenging situation? They are steady, unmoved, and consistent. They resolve conflicts in concise, straightforward ways without putting people on the spot or making others feel ostracized.Because of how they handle these types of interactions, introverted leaders can learn more about those they work with, and they can engage in constructive criticism more productively.
- Introverted leaders are exceptionally strong at mentoring because they easily establish deep, genuine connections.
Introverts are driven, goal-oriented, and follow-through on their commitments.
This makes them great role models for others. They are also great listeners and are often naturally empathetic. This sense of putting people before pride is an invaluable characteristic that not every leader possesses.
- Introverted leaders are more apt to listen to others and have a greater sense of self-awareness. Introverted leaders consider what other people are saying more carefully, and reflect on what has been said. This results in a thoughtful, provocative response.
In team meetings, the silence that is created from listening often provokes more ideas to surface. A thoughtful comment can bring focus to an idea or move the team in a new direction.
- This self-awareness not only applies to work culture, but translates into knowing how to take the long view; they can focus their energy on the big picture. Introverted leaders are invested in the 10-year goal. They are drawn to creating deeper connections with those who can contribute to those goals.
Introverted leaders are driven to achieve and like to know what they are working towards. They can also impress this focus on company goals and values to those on their team.
- Introverts are less likely to assign blame. Their reflective nature tends to make them better problem-solvers, so they will focus more on a solution over how a problem was created. They are also less likely to take credit for an idea or solution; because the end goal is their main focus, taking credit for every step made seems redundant and unnecessary.
- Introverted leaders are more apt to have a "growth mindset." Introverted leaders have had to succeed and make their presence known among a workforce dominantly comprised of confident, vocal, and incredibly social extroverts. They understand deeply that a person can get better at something rather than just accepting a situation as stagnant.
Introverted leaders must work harder at in-person networking than extroverted people. They recognize that they get better at it with practice and by putting themselves in more networking environments.
11 Essential Needs of Employees.
- Reward – Compensation for the work
- Vision – Security in knowing where the company is headed long-term
- Resources – Having the right tools and training
- Loyalty – Leadership that "has your back" as they expect you to have theirs
- Connection – Competent leaders who genuinely care and are supportive of employee success
- Teamwork – Having a culture that supports and encourages teamwork
- Value – Sincere appreciation and recognition of each employee as an individual
- Growth – Programs and paths for growth and career advancement
- Self-Development – Opportunities to be coached, challenged and inspired
- Strengths – Mapping roles and responsibilities to strengths for ultimate fulfillment of potential
- Purpose – Creating opportunities for meaningful contribution to the big-picture goals
This growth mindset is a focus on striving to be better — which is inherent to success.

Event Organisers Update June 2017 ISSUE 153 - an independent information source published by the Society of Event Organisers (SEO).
%%[004 optional] Company%%
Event Organisers Update
The newsletter for organisers of events.
Question is whether one fights terrorism by continuing to go and thus not letting the terrorists win, as thousands do. Or does one take the view that attendance at the event is supposed to be for enjoyment and that worrying about being shot, stabbed or blown up can only detract from that enjoyment to the extent that it is not worth going, which is what the terrorism is meant to achieve.
The presence of armed police/soldiers on the streets and at venues also polarises opinion, with some reassured by this and others finding it intimidating and another good reason to stay home for some catch-up TV, or a favourite box-set.
Sadly, though many hate the thought that the murder of innocents achieves terrorism goals it does. Fears, expressed before the current spate of attacks, that "London would be next" apparently saw visitor figures drop at many major London venues last year. According to 2016 figures published by the Association of Leading Visitor Attractions (ALVA) seven out of the top ten, all of which pull in from 2.45 million to 6.42 million visitors suffered drops, with numbers down 5.9% at the British Museum, 12% at the Natural History Museum, 23% at the Southbank Centre, 3.2% at the Science Museum, 12% at the Victoria and Albert Museum, 2% at the Tower of London and 0.2% at the Royal Museums at Greenwich, a total drop of around 1.4 million.
Sad times, while we wait to see what 2017 has left for us.
A group of developers led by Tower Properties Management plan their new hotel, along with four private residences on the site to comprise 90-95 Piccadilly, 42 Half Moon Street and 10-12 White Horse Street, all of which are currently in a dilapidated condition.
The main building at 94 Piccadilly, now a Grade 1 listed, started life as an 18th century mansion house called Egremont, later called Cholmondeley and then Cambridge House after a Marquis and then a Duke occupied it. Later it served as the home of Prime Minister Lord Palmerston until his death in 1865, when it was converted and extended to provide a base for the Naval and Military Club, which was founded in 1862 and became known as the "In and Out Club" due to the prominent IN and OUT signs on the separate gates for vehicular entrance and exit. In 1999 the club, which boasts Prince Philip as its President and T.E. Lawrence among its former members moved to new premises in St James Square and the building has been unused since, although there was a 2011 plan to convert it into a 48-room private house.
Mr and Mrs Bodarenko stayed at the Caldera Palace Hotel for a week in 2013 but did not make their claim until this year, one they are now trying to drop after the hotel management alleged they had Facebook posts proving that the couple had enjoyed their holiday and proof that they had consumed "large quantities of alcohol" when they were supposed to be ill. One Facebook post from Mrs Bondarenko described the hotel as "gorgeous" and that they had been there three times.
The hotel's counterclaim is for damage to its reputation.
Part-time nurse Sarah Gardner claimed that staff were "rude" and that the food was "mediocre at best" at the High Rocks restaurant. The restaurant say that she put up three low reviews and then took them down because they were "false", and accuse her of a "campaign of defamation" that had caused "financial harm worth tens of thousands of pounds".
The 130 year old venue, which hosts 200 events a year across its seven spaces incorporates nearly four acres of freehold land.
Current Eurostar route is via Brussels Midi and the journey takes 4 hours 40 minutes. The new service, initially two trains a day is expected to take just under 4 hours, and a new direct service to Rotterdam is expected to follow.
In 2013 Eurostar told the press that the direct Amsterdam service would be operational by 2016.
The 50 "Best in Europe" are rated from 8 out of 10 to 10 out of 10, and it is just one hotel in France that is awarded the perfect score and that is the 40-room La Bastide de Gordes in Provence, described as upmarket and family-friendly and costing from £172 a night, a bargain for the quality given that the average price across all 50 hotels listed by the Telegraph is from £223. One other notable French possibility from a total selection of six is the 34-bed La Vieux Castillon in Lanquedoc-Roussillon (9/10 £105).
Spain has the most 9/10 scorers (eight) in this top 50 with the tiny 6-bedroom 3 Cabos in Asturias offering a bargain from £91, and the 10-bedroom Balcon de Cordoba in Andulusia a little more at £119. In the six rated at 8/10 is the 21-bedroom La Casa del Calife in Cadiz, from £81. Italy also does well with seven in the 9/10 category including the 15-bedroom Fifteen Keys in Rome from £101, the 18-bedroom Hotel Villa Arcadio on Lake Garda from £104 and the 9-bedroom Ad Astra in Florence, from £94. Also in Italy are six scoring 8/10 including the 10-bedroom Don Ferrante in Puglia from £86. In Sicily is the 12-bedroom Monaci delle Terre Nere, scoring 9/10 and from £103.
Portugal has two 9/10 and two at 8/10, the latter including the 6-bedroom Pensao Agricole in the Algarve from £112. And the Greek Islands boast three at 9/10, including the 33-bedroom Ammos Hotel on Crete from £104, and the 8/10 33-bedroom Kensho Hotel on Mykonos from £110. In Croatia is one 8/10 and two 9/10 including the 18-bedroom Hotel Adriatic from £82, with other bargains available in Slovenia, the 9/10 20-bedroom Vander Urbani Resort from £84, and in Hungary, the 9/10 11-bedroom Brody House in Budapest from £95.
Of course, you could pay a great deal more...
Hokusai believed that he produced his best work after he had turned 60 and Hokusai Beyond the Great Wave concentrates on the last 29 years of his life, starting with his best-known Thirty-Six Views of Mt. Fuji series, a life-saving commission for him that included the iconic In The Hollow of a Wave Off The Coast of Kanagawa. This, when viewed the Oriental way from right to left put the viewer right under a huge towering blue wave topped with a crest of white foam "claws", as an admiring Van Gogh described them, reaching out to tear at the boats caught in the wave's trough below. As well as seascapes and Fuji, which had a religious significance for him, Hokusai also excelled in pictures of bridges, landscapes, waterfalls, fish, flowers and birds.
One Hokusai genre not showing at the exhibition, because it was produced while he was still in his fifties, is his shunga - Japanese erotic art, of which the British Museum has lots, and which was banned in Japan for more than a century One famous Hokusai picture shows a naked woman on a rocky shore, described as a pearl diver or a fisherman's wife, being pleasured by two octopuses, a small one attending to her lips and breasts and a large one with tentacles around her waist and squatting wide-eyed between her open thighs, a scene that some may find deeply erotic while others could be put off their sushi.
A beautifully illustrated book with more than 130 of Hokusai's artworks - Hokusai Prints and Drawings - is on sale in the museum shop for £14.99, and a small but interesting exhibition of Japanese woodcut production is presented free in Room 3, just by the entrance.
In the dark and unflinching Greek film Suntan, released last month, Anna is the lovely but flirty 21 year old hedonist who arrives with a small group of like-minded friends on the small Greek Cycladic island of Antiparos for some hard partying and nudity on the island's remote beaches. A minor accident on a scooter gets her into the surgery of the new island doctor, a middle-aged man called Kostis who has spent a dreary winter there being told how the place changes in the summer, specifically being over run by young females "gagging for it" according to local Lotharios. Kostis dresses Anna's leg wound and later falls for her when she shows him a little affection and a lot else. No bunny-boiler Anna nevertheless has the morals of a rabbit, and a confusing penchant for Sapphic experiences, and she tires of Kostis when he cant satisfy her. She then cruelly dumps him, for it all to end predictably in tears as Kostis drinks to forget and is fired when he can't be found to treat an injured child.
Suntan stars Makis Papadimitriou as the sad Kostis we all feel sorry for and Elli Tringou as the flighty Anna we don't. Both leads are strong and make Suntan, directed by Argyris Papadimitropoulos, the warning that every middle-aged man, missing his lost youth should see
Sawyer is also doing rather well, to the tune of up to £25,000 a year of taxpayer's money it is reported, organising the office of his wife, foreign aid minister and conservative MP for Witham, Pritti Patel, as well as being a conservative councillor for the London borough of Bexley and entitled to another £23,000 from the taxpayer.
Interestingly an investigation into wine a spirits production by Interpol and Europol has revealed a factory producing and bottling sub-standard alcohol and using faked federal stamps, this based in, er, St Petersburg, Russia...
Having read about the London wardens, presumably on a bonus per ticket earner, who slapped their expensive fines on vehicles abandoned after the Borough Market atrocity within minutes of police lifting the cordon he is definitely starting to wonder.
In a move that will do more damage to the image of wardens Transport for London have admitted the issuing of tickets in these circumstances was an "insensitive mistake" and have pledged to cancel them. Let's hope some hasty warden replacing and re-training is also on the TfL agenda.
Meanwhile more grovelling TfL apologies were recently received by a London cheese shop owner who had to call in bailiffs to recover a congestion charge refund that a court had ordered TfL to pay, an order they arrogantly and stupidly ignored.

Physical Activity Helps Us Eliminate Self-Defeating Attitudes
Some of my best ideas and most profound attitude adjustments come while I'm cycling or jogging. While jogging, I can actually run the gamut from thinking negatively about a problem, to being open to new possibilities, to actually coming up with a positive solution to my concerns — all during a few miles of physical exertion.
Perhaps you've had the same experience. Brisk walking, running, cycling, hiking — any kind of physical exercise that's challenging for you — can help you see your problems with new eyes and, in fact, alter your attitude. Let me give you an example.
As I was running the other day, I began thinking about challenges at the office. I love my work, and the rewards far outdistance the difficulties. But as with any business, not all aspects of it are pleasant. As I started my run, I was pretty down on a few individuals, and on myself for my reaction to some of the things they had said.
The first couple of miles, I heaped one negative thought on another. My usually buoyant spirit was fast dissipating under the weight of my wallowing in negative thinking. Here I was, a counselor committed to helping people work through the pain of their own emotional exhaustion, and I was demonstrating the same behavior as those I'm committed to helping.
On the spot, I made the decision to change my attitude. I picked up my pace and got my heart rate up. Then I said a prayer, asking God to forgive me for indulging in an attitude of despair and complaint. I started to count my blessings — thanking God for my wonderful wife, who has been my partner for so many years. I thanked the Father for the beautiful Northwest where I'm privileged to live. I started reciting the names of my friends who care about me and who had touched my life. I prayed for each of them, one by one, asking God to give them strength and courage and that they might always have the inner resolve to be the persons our heavenly Father designed them to be.
By now I was cruising. I scarcely remember the scenery, the rocks on the road, the traffic, or anything else on my run. Everything had suddenly come together for me — the physical, emotional, and spiritual — and it started by simply getting some exercise for my body.
When I came home, I felt taller and stronger inside and out. Gone were my earlier complaints — still to be dealt with but now with a different attitude — and in their place was a spirit of gratitude.
We dare not underestimate the importance of physical activity in helping us to eliminate self-defeating attitudes. Just getting up, getting out, and moving can be helpful.
There are now scores of studies that confirm that exercise can be a direct antidote to stress. Whether a workout activates stress-destroying endorphins or simply provides for a relaxing pause in the action, we know something good happens.

Crime and time in Newfoundland and Labrador: Here's how courts arrive at sentences for offenders
'When we incarcerate a person, it's because they can't serve society without harming someone' : criminologist
ST. JOHN'S, N.L. - "You'd get more of a punishment if you poached a moose!"
It's an oft-expressed response from the public when it comes to the sentences given to offenders in our provincial and supreme courts, particularly when it comes to violent crimes, and judges are often called upon to impose tougher consequences for criminal behaviour.
Read on for some facts about sentencing in our justice system, and how the courts determine what's appropriate.
• The Criminal Code of Canada sets out maximum and, in some cases, minimum sentences that can be imposed for any offence.
The Crown can't request and the judge can't impose whatever sentence they personally feel is appropriate, since they are bound by the limits of sentencing in the criminal code. The same is true for other provincial offences, say, under the Highway Traffic Act or the Wildlife Act. Government can decide to amend the criminal code and change the maximums and minimums, as it has with impaired driving and sexual assault, if the public calls for it.
A number of mandatory minimum sentences — including those for possessing a loaded, prohibited firearm and for sexual assault — have been ruled unconstitutional on the grounds that in some circumstances they could be disproportionate or amount to cruel and unusual punishment. In those cases, the court can still impose those minimums — or higher — but are not compelled to impose it.
• Sentencing is also limited by previous similar cases.
By law, the court must apply a sentence similar to what others have received for the same offence. Before suggesting a particular sentence in a case, Crown and defence lawyers must research similar Canadian cases and present them to the judge. The Crown will urge the judge to find the case before them is similar to ones in which a higher sentence was imposed; the defence will do the opposite. The judge will then assess the facts and the prior cases and come to a determination. If the judge chooses to ignore precedent and imposes a sentence that's significantly higher or lower, he or she must give a very good reason for doing so.
"Otherwise, the case would almost certainly be appealed, and the appeal court would simply replace the trial judge's sentence with one which corresponds with precedent," explains Lloyd Strickland, Newfoundland and Labrador's assistant director of public prosecutions.
• Youth sentences are less severe than adult sentences for the same crimes.
The Criminal Youth Justice Act, which applies to offenders aged 12 to 17, recognizes children have a diminished responsibility for their actions. General deterrence - sending a message to the public that certain crimes will not be tolerated and should receive heavier sentences - cannot be a sentencing factor in youth cases, by law.
• Punishment is not the main purpose of sentencing in Canada.
Public protection is. The criminal code recognizes that the public may be best protected by an offender turning their life around and becoming a productive member of society. There are other objectives of sentencing, including deterrence (both of the person and the public), promoting a sense of responsibility in the offender, denunciation of the offence and repairing harm done to the victim and community, but the goal is not to exact revenge or retribution, and the law says jail should not be imposed if other, less restrictive sanctions would be appropriate.
"Really, jail should be reserved for people who pose a risk to society," explains Rose Ricciardelli, criminologist, researcher and MUN professor. "The punishment isn't going to jail. The punishment is taking a person away from their life. It's that removal from society so they can get themselves to the point where they can function as a viable member of it."
If someone can do that while still serving society, say, by living under house arrest for a period of time while still contributing to the economy by working, that must be taken into consideration, Ricciardelli says.
"When we incarcerate a person, it's because they can't serve society without harming someone," she explains, adding research has shown that harsher consequences don't deter crime.
• A person convicted of multiple offences at the same time will often have their sentence reduced for totality.
In a nutshell: the courts must try to avoid any sentence that would be disproportionately long for the criminal acts in question and would therefore affect an offender's prospect of turning their life around.
"Imagine an individual is convicted of five armed robberies," Strickland presents as an example. "Each armed robbery may attract a sentence of three years in prison. Since an offender is generally supposed to receive a sentence for each offence he or she committed, the end result would be 15 years imprisonment. I appreciate that there are many such an offender who deserves that time in jail. But a sentence that long might extinguish any possibility that the offender ever becomes a functioning, contributing member of society, so the sentencing judge will reduce the overall sentence imposed to leave open the possibility that this offender will change and rehabilitate."
• Will poaching a moose or fishing out of season fetch a person a harsher sentence than a violent crime?
Not usually. But there are some things considered. Is the thought of possibly going to jail going to stop someone from committing a violent assault? Unfortunately, maybe not, since it's a often a heat-of-the-moment crime. That's not to downplay the fact that it's serious and criminal, Strickland points out.
"When a legislature determines a sentencing range for poaching, it does so knowing the illegal acts are not committed in the moment, but involve some degree of contemplation," he says. "The sentence range chosen is intended to make the person stop and think before pulling the trigger or casting a net, whatever the case may be."
Another example is environmental offences, Strickland says. Government sets the sentencing range knowing potential offenders have large resources and enormous penalties are therefore required to achieve deterrence.
"A potential polluter will consider the costs of a fine, for instance, versus savings in terms of having to treat or store the pollutant," Strickland explains.

Goon Squad Lyrics
Artist: Elvis Costello
Album: Armed Forces
Mother, Father, I'm here in the zoo
I can't come home 'cause I've grown up too soon
I got my sentence
I got my command
They said they'd make me major if I met all their demands
I could be a corp'ral into corp'ral punishment
Or the gen'ral manager of a large establishment
They pat some good boys on the back and put some to the rod
But I never thought they'd put me in the
Goon squad
They've come to look you over and they're giving you the eye
Goon squad
They want you to come out to play
You'd better say goodbye
Some grow just like their dads
And some grow up too tall
Some go drinking with the lads
Some don't grow at all
And you must find the proper place
For everything you see
But you'll never get to make a lampshade out of me
I could join a chain of males or be the missing link
Looking for a lucky girl to put me in the pink
They pat some good boys on the back and put some to the rod
But I never thought they'd put me in the
Good squad ....
Mother, Father, I'm doing so well
I'm making such progress now that you can hardly tell
I fit in a little dedication
With one eye on the clock
They caught you under medication
You could be in for a shock
Thinking up the alibis that ev'ryone's forgotten
Just another mummy's boy gone to rotten
They pat some good boys on the back and put some to the rod
But I never thought they'd put me in the
Goon squad....
