Living Field Garden
The Living Field Garden was designed and built in 2004 as a place for the enjoyment and study of wild and cultivated plants from Scotland's lowland, agricultural landscapes. People are welcome to visit the garden at any time via the Invergowrie path network. For directions, please follow this link.
The entrance to the garden is by the wooden gate to the right of the main notice board. The photograph below, looking south, shows the garden from the air in 2006, two years after it was built. The first part of the garden, to the left or east in the photograph, holds the living displays and demonstrates some of the the habitats of farmland - hedge, meadow, arable field, pond, ditch and wood. The second part, to the west or right, was added in 2006. This west part now contains the observatory, polytunnel for all -weather activities, wild areas, and plots where community groups grow vegetables.
Aerial photograph (above) of the Living Field garden at the Institute's Mylnefield site in 2006, showing the entrance gate (E), and to the left the main or east section containing the reference collection (R) and habitats - pond and ditch (P), tree (T), arable (A), and meadow (M); and to the right, the west section (W), a part of which in 2006 was used to grow rare local species for their seed (S). Above the garden across the farm road are cereal plots and below it lie the met site and soft fruit plots.
The garden was built to display habitats that represent cropped field, fallow, meadow, woodland, hedge and wetland areas such as pond and ditch. An arable-plant reference collection contains some of the rarer plant species of cropland. This collection of habitats in a small area forms an 'oasis' of biodiversity. The range of higher plants, probably more than 200 species, draws in many other life forms, especially during the summer when the meadow is heaving with sound and colour.
Large poster boards give some notes on the habitats, seedbank and soils. The habitats board (above right) is sited next to the two wooden picnic tables.
Hedges were planted around the garden in 2004, just inside the wire fence that was erected around the perimeter. The fence was rabbit- and hare-proof, so the saplings struck well and grew without the needs for tree guards. Species include blackthorn, hawthorn, wild rose (shown to the right in fruit), elder, alder, hazel and field maple.
Within three or four years, they had grown enough to temper the full blast of the south-west wind off the Carse and offered a refuge and source of food for many organisms. After only 6 years, in 2010, the hedges display a diversity of shape, texture, scent and colour that makes visitors feel at ease. The Living Field hedges now form a protective boundary for the many plant species that grown within the garden.
The small area planted with trees covers little more than 20 square metres. The tree species are mostly silver birch, rowan and alder, and though they number hardly more than 10 individuals in total, they have changed the micro-environment within their influence and have fostered a distinct group of plants and small-animal life.
There are other trees on the farm: ash and willow, for example - and at one time great elm - but these few silver birch and rowan in the garden filter the environment at a height that human visitors can appreciate. Should there be other species? Gean, bird cherry and uncut blackthorn would fit, but there isn't the room.
Pond and ditch
When the garden was being prepared, a short, wet ditch was constructed at the south boundary with the aid of an impermeable membrane, leading into a pond of just a couple of square metres in area. Plant species such as ragged robin and Scrophularia aquatica inhabit the ditch while marsh marigold, water forget-me-not and bulrush sustain themselves in the pond. Amphibians like frog and toad have found their way to this small scantuary and now reproduce each year.
Arable rotation
A plot of land is used permanently to support a four-stage rotation of three crops and fallow (i.e. no crop). The crops are potato, brassica (cabbage family) and a cereal (e.g. wheat or barley). The aim of this rotation is not to mimic any actual cropping sequence but to provide each year varied material for observation and study. In 2010, for example, the plot held a selection of potato varieties, some brassica including SCRI's own swede and the oil crop abyssinian mustard, 9 types of cereal crop and an unsown fallow in which weeds emerged from the soil seedbank.
Reference collection
Each year a selection of the less common plants of the maritime croplands is grown in the northernmost (but south facing) part of the garden. Few people, including those who work on the land, now know or even recognise these declining species, yet they are a part of the rural heritage and have many potential uses to man. Seed is kept from these plants to replenish the Living Field's seed store. In 2011, the reference collection will be extended to include medicinal and dye plants that were grown in 2010. Many of the plants, including the black mullein and agrimony growing together at the north west corner of the first garden, now reappear every year without assistance.
The photograph above shows black mullein (yellow flower) and agrimony in a self sustaining perennial community.
One of the garden's most popular features is the meadow. It was sown in 2004 as a mix of mainly annuals and biennials with some grasses, but has since developed in a kind of 'succession' to a complex and diverse community of perennials, most of which were not sown. Among the first plants to emerge in 2004 were poppy, cornflower, corn marigold, oxeye daisy and viper's bugloss. In 2010 the commonest plants were red clover and other perennial legumes such Lotus species, and also wild carrot, lady's bedstraw, mallow species, yarrow and field scabious.
As the years passed, the number of legumes in the meadow - those plants that fix atmospheric nitrogen from the air and provide this essential, major nutrient to other plants via the soil - has increased from none to around 10 species. The meadow has not received any fertiliser during this time, and it is now likely that these legumes are fixing much of the nitrogen that all the other plants use.
How these legume species, or the other perennials in the meadow, came to be here is not known. Some might have been present in the soil seedbank at the beginning before the meadow was created (see next section) while others might have been carried into the meadow by wild animals or as impurities in soil or seed sown in other parts of the garden. The article on legumes in the 5000 years project lists the species now growing here. Anyone wanting to know more about the role of legumes might try the article on biological nitrogen fixation in the science section of this web site, which includes a tutorial for Advanced Higher level students.
The photograph above shows a part of the meadow in summer 2010 where perennial legumes - notably red clover Trifolium pratense and the yellow-flowered Lotus pedunculatus - cohabit with grasses and other broadleaf plants in a rich community.
Seedbank - balancing the weed burden and biodiversity
The garden highlights the science of the seedbank-based food web of the maritime croplands along Scotland's east coast. Seedbanks are reserves of living seeds in the soil. Some seedbank species are a burden, as weeds or reservoirs of crop pests. Other species benefit farmland wildlife, support natural predators, stabilise the soil and reduce loss of nutrients. Species that are most damaging to crops tend to be the least useful in other ways. We need to find ways to sustain the beneficial species and suppress the damaging ones.
Many plants of the cropped landscape are on decline in the UK. Every year, species from SCRI's arable reference collection are grown to provide new seed. In the months of May and August, you will find many arable plants in flower that are now on the 'declining' or 'endangered' lists of UK flora. There are now usually about 200 plant species growing in and around the garden.
We grow these plants to provide living material for training and to understand their biology. More on the common weeds can be found on the weeds page in the 5000 years project.
Projects 2010
Two new projects began in the garden this year.
Dye plants
We set up a demonstration area this year for dye plants, including woad, weld, madder, dyer's coreopsis, alkanet and dyer's chamomile. Young plants were grown in a raised bed and will be transferred to a permanent location in the garden later in the year. Dye plants have never been major crops in Scotland, and are now rarely found in cultivation due to the preference of commercial dyers for tropical dyes such as indigo and for manufactured dyes. Dyestuffs can also be got from several wild species such lady's bedstraw, types of lichen, hazel and also some cultivated plants such as rhubarb. Natural dyes are making a come-back among craftworkers and specialist paper makers. They are a fascinating group of plants, many of which also have medicinal properties.
A hands-on exhibit on plant dyes was one of the most popular events at LEAF Open farm Sunday, 13 June 2010. The collection of dye plants in the garden is linked to the dye plants page of the 5000 years project.
The above photograph shows dyer's coreopsis Coreopsis tinctoria in bud and flower in late summer 2010 growing in the part of the garden exhibiting dye plants.
Modern and heritage cereals
A small collection of modern and heritage cereals was grown this year again linked with the 5000 years project. Spelt wheat, emmer wheat and modern bread wheat; bere and modern barley; black oat and modern oat were grown in the 'cereals' part of the cropped area. They all germinated quickly, grew well and reached maturity in August when seed was harvested for future projects. The emmer, spelt, bere and black oat all had longer and less rigid stems than the modern counterparts. The photograph to the right shows a modern barley variety and the taller bere just after ear-emergence, with the meadow behind.
Thanks to the Agronomy Institute at Orkney College for providing seed of spelt, emmer and black oat.
Dundee Astronomical Society's observatory was relocated to the Garden in 2010. The observatory and telescope, left to the Society by the late Dr Sandy Mackenzie, 'will be used by members of DAS for various projects relating to the Moon, planets, Sun and deep sky imaging as well as for the general pleasure of simply looking at celestial objects with a fairly large telescope.' Mrs Janet Mackenzie performed the opening on Saturday 19 June 2010 in the presence of about 40 people from DAS and SCRI. The presence of the observatory and telescope, and not least the expertise and enthusiasm of DAS, are a most welcome addition to the Living Field, extending the range of local knowledge well beyond our current ability to measure and interpret of the sun's incoming energy and wavelengths.
The Society sent the Living Field some photographs of the sun (e.g. image above right) which can be viewed on the DAS page of this web site. The Dundee Astronomical Society's web pages show many pictures of the sun, moon, planets and galaxies.
View the webcams
There are three webcams in the Living Field Garden: one looking down from the bird table at the bird feeder; another sited outside the polytunnel looking south towards the Tay; and the third looking at the pond.
The photograph above shows part of the meadow in summer 2010 supporting a highly diverse community including musk mallow, Lotus species, field scabious and several grasses.

This is the strongest eurozone growth rate in a year.
The wider EU expanded by 0.5% during the last quarter.
Eurozone smashes forecasts with 0.6% growth.
The eurozone grew by 0.6% in the first three months of 2016.
That's twice as strong as in the previous three months, and much stronger than expect.
Better-than-expected growth in France and Spain helped the eurozone to beat forecasts, and grow faster than the UK (which expanded by 0.4% last quarter).
Advertising giant WPP has thrown more fuel on the fire of excessive pay, by handing its boss, Sir Martin Sorrell, a pay packet of almost £71m.
Over £62m of the remuneration package comes from WPP's long-term incentive plan, but Sorrell is also getting £7.6m in base salary, short-term bonuses and other rewards.
Sorrell has built WPP into a global titan over several decades, so deserves a lot of credit for the company's success. But still, expect some criticism - this is the second biggest payday for a UK boss ever.
More encouraging news: Italy's unemployment rate has hit its lowest rate in over three years.
Figures just released show that the Italian jobless rate dipped to 11.4% in March, from 11.6% percent in February.
Philippe Waechter, chief economist at Natixis Asset Management, also believes the rise in French growth will help Francois Hollande:
Waechter says (via the FT):
"There is a stronger situation in the labour market and that will create strong momentum this year...
It's perfect timing for Hollande."
French finance minister hails growth figures
The acceleration in French growth to 0.5% is good news for Francois Hollande, the embattled president.
And finance minister Michel Sapin has declared that the government's economic plans are paying off. saying:
"This is solid growth.
Output is increasing and translating into more jobs and a drop in unemployment."
On Wednesday, France posted its biggest fall in unemployment in 15 years, after hitting a string of record highs.
Shares in airlines group IAG have dropped by over 4% this morning after it warned that March's Brussels terror attacks have hit sales.
IAG, which owns British Airways, is cutting back its growth plans after seeing weaker demand from high-margin business-travellers.
The eurozone may have grown faster than expected in the last quarter.
Economists had forecast growth of 0.4%. But with France and Spain both beating expectations (and Germany not reporting GDP yet), we might get a higher number in 90 minutes time....
Spain grows by 0.8%, again
Spain has racked up another quarter of strong economic growth, despite the political turmoil that has gripped the country this year.
Spanish GDP rose by 0.8% in the first quarter of 2016, matching the previous three months. Its economy has now been growing for almost three years:
That's slightly faster than the 0.7% which economists had expected, suggesting that Spain shrugged off the deadlock since last December's inconclusive election.

Protecting Your Home From Wind Damage
Floods, lightning strikes and other common storms can endanger your home, but you also need to consider the risks of the wind damage that accompanies these weather events.
High winds can cause significant damage to your home's roof, windows, doors, and siding. And since wind is usually just one factor of dangerous storms, any wind damage could create openings that would further expose your home.
Here are some ways you can protect your home:
- Roof—Inspect your roof from the ground to ensure it's fully covered. If you notice any damage, you should consider having it inspected professionally to ensure it's up to code and that all of the shingles are secure.
- Doors—Make sure your doors are made of a strong substance that isn't heavy enough to present a risk if it's torn off, such as solid wood or hollow metal. You can also secure your existing doors by installing additional hinges or deadbolts.
- Windows—Install impact-resistant shutters on large windows to protect your home from changes in air pressure and flying objects.
- Yard—Remove any trees or other foliage that could come loose and fall on your home in high winds.
After a storm passes, you should inspect your home for damage as soon as possible. You should also call 708-845-3000 if you need to make a claim or have questions about your insurance coverage for wind damage.

Alexandria man pleads not guilty to manslaughter charge
What elements have to happen during a homicide for a defendant to be charged with manslaughter? This video explains what's covered under Louisiana law. To read the full statutes, visit these links: Homicide: http://www.legis.la.gov/legis/Law.aspx?d=78395 Manslaughter: http://www.legis.la.gov/legis/Law.aspx?d=78399
An Alexandria man accused in a June shooting pleaded not guilty Wednesday to manslaughter.
Korri Devon Thornton was arrested by the Alexandria Police Department on June 22 after a tip led them to a Old Boyce Road hotel. He had been named as the suspect in the June 10 shooting of Dadrian Henderson.

More: Alexandria homicide suspect captured at hotel
The body of the 20-year-old was found on the ground on Henry Drive near Willow Glen Road after a call about gunfire.
Thornton, 25, also pleaded not guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm as he appeared before 9th Judicial District Court Judge Mary Lauve Doggett with his attorney, Darrell Hickman. A pretrial conference was set for Jan. 3, 2019.
Rapides Parish Assistant District Attorney Cheryl Carter is prosecuting the case.
The department had arrested Thornton on a charge of second-degree murder, but the Rapides Parish District Attorney's Office filed a bill for manslaughter.
Thornton also has a Feb. 11, 2019, trial set on an unrelated charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm.
A woman who was found with Thornton at the hotel, 25-year-old Laterica Renee King, still faces a felony charge of being an accessory after the fact. No arraignment date has been set yet, according to Rapides Parish Clerk of Court records.

Health Tip
Water is Best!
Electrolyte-loaded athletic drinks can be a source of unnecessary calories, so drinking water is usually fine until you're exercising for more than one hour. At that point, feel free to go for regular Gatorade-type drinks (and their calories), which can give you a beneficial replenishment boost.

Hello and welcome to our
December newsletter!
This month, we'll be sharing tips for gift wrapping ergonomics and fitness tips for the holidays.
Ergonomic Guide to Wrapping Presents
By Janel Davis Heitzmann, PT, CSCS
The holiday season is fast approaching and many of us have gifts to wrap. Here are several ergonomic tips to keep in mind so your generosity doesn't take a toll on your body.
Set up your workspace before you begin.
Consider keeping a space dedicated just for wrapping gifts if you have a large amount of packages - you can spread the task out over several days. Keep items like tape and scissors in easy reach in front of your body. You should never have to bend or twist to reach your frequently used items.
Don't wrap presents on the floor.
It's nearly impossible to have good posture while wrapping on the floor, as it causes you to lean over for long periods, putting increased strain on your discs and spinal stabilizers. Kneeling for long periods of time can cause aggravation and pain, and may flair up conditions such as knee tendonitis, bursitis and osteoarthritis.
Choose a table where your arms can be comfortably relaxed
or consider standing at a counter. Don't use a table where your arms are elevated and your shoulders are near your ears, or you may find that you have headaches and shoulder pain the next day.
Keep the area well lit.
You want the same amount of light you use while cooking or writing/reading. Dining rooms are often too dim, especially at night, so think about adding more task lighting.
Consider some form of tape dispenser
for efficient and swift movement. It makes the task of cutting a piece of tape a one-handed operation.
Choose a good cutting instrument.
Sharp scissor blades will make the cutting task more efficient. If the blades are good, you will not need to exert much force. Or consider purchasing a Gift Wrap Cutter which will help you avoid the repetitive strain of using scissors.
Don't get so excited over the occasion that you strain your back.
Nothing puts a damper on a Christmas party like a Herniated Disc. When lifting, keep the box close to your body, squat and bend your knees. If you have a hand truck or dolly, use it. Even if it is a hassle to get out of storage, personal safety is always worth the extra time.
Best wishes for a happy and healthy holiday season!
8 Family-Friendly Holiday Fitness Tips
By Laura Williams
Dashing between shopping trips, Christmas parties, family events and regular work engagements makes it hard to figure out how to
fit fitness into your schedule
. The trick to staying healthy during the holiday season is to plan ahead and make the season work for you. You may not be able to hit the gym for your regular spin class, but that doesn't mean you have to forgo exercise altogether.
Holiday Exercise Outings
You probably have a number of family traditions during the
holiday season
. Maybe you host an annual Christmas party, or you set a day aside for cookie and tree decorating. This year, decide to start new holiday traditions that revolve around a physical activity. Here are a few ideas:
Drive to the neighborhood in your city known for having the best Christmas lights, then spend an evening walking around the neighborhood while enjoying the scenery.
Sign up for a
holiday 5K
run or walk in your area. A number of cities offer holiday-themed events with names like "Jingle Bell 5K Run Walk" or "Reindeer Run." You and the kids can spend a Saturday morning enjoying exercise as a family.

I was born and raised in the Atlanta area, and have lived here almost my entire life. I believe in knowing the rules. And breaking them on occasion. I am phenomenally-driven to learn new things and to put that knowledge to good use. My work ethic: harder and smarter. I'm all about seeing the big picture, developing strategy and acting on what matters. Whatever I'm committed to, I am committed to—faith, family, friends, career. I am passionate about helping others.
Sweet home, Atlanta.
Experience has taught me that it's wise to maintain an even keel regardless of the situation. That there is always something to be thankful for, and that an attitude of gratitude will carry you a long way in life.
Speaking of gratitude, I am extraordinarily grateful for the opportunities and experiences I've had so far. It's been my privilege to work with and learn from many amazing people in companies ranging from small local businesses to Fortune 500 companies.
Now playing: Little Feat
My headphones are never far away—if they're on, I'm in the groove. There's almost certainly a longboard in my car. It doesn't get ridden nearly enough. YouTube over cable any day. Avid reader, time permitting. The most fascinating images are found in pictureless-novels, especially the classics. Poor writing or editing drives me nuts. Times
1,000 a million if it's mine. Somewhat of a healthy food enthusiast, but I do love good BBQ. Huge Atlanta Braves fan.
Bonus Points
Here's one more insight into who I am. I've done my fair share of personality profile tests. Some are weird, some are insightful. One that really resonated with me is the Myers-Briggs assessment. You provide honest answers to a long series of questions and are given one of 16 different personality 'types.' Despite having done this several times over the years, my type has remained the same. When you read the description of your personality type, it's usually spot on. So much so that you're likely to say, 'that's creepy.' And it is. However it's actually quite helpful in better understanding others—and yourself. Knowing what motivates people always leads to better relationships.
Me? INTJ all the way. Learn more about the INTJ personality here.
Sometimes you just gotta ride.

A novel spectral beam combining (SBC) approach based on off-axis feedback in a V-shaped external cavity (VSBC) was proposed and demonstrated. A highly reflecting mirror was used to supply the optical feedback by partial overlapping the beam. The advantages of simple setup, output coupler free, tunable beam quality and emission power over traditional SBC were presented. The beam quality exceeds single emitter with the similar energy conversion efficiency to the traditional SBC. The M2 factors of 2.31 × 3.76 in fast and slow axes and a brightness of 122 MWcm−2sr−1 were realized at 30 A based on a commercial broad-area diode laser array.

Death Wish Review
I was provided with a complimentary copy of this book so I could give an honest review.
The description of this book seemed to be so interesting to me. I mean like a teenage necromancer/assassin fits the description of an ideal book for me, but this one did not.
I started reading it and was a bit reluctant at first because I wasn't used to the author's style and I hoped it would get better, but it just didn't. I found the plot to go everywhere and also nowhere at all because the characters would go from place to place without any transition, but it really felt like it was all stationary. I read the whole thing in one sitting and found that I really didn't even know what was going on really.
When it came to the characters and story content I found it hard also because it felt to me like it was very basic and stereotypical. The girl was sassy and super cool like every other YA fantasy and the guy was laid back and athletic, and they just didn't mix well for me.
I also had trouble with it because the language used was meant for a more mature audience but I just found the content to be written the same way that a middle-grade chapter book would.
In the end, I give it 2/5 stars because the idea of the story is great and the author really tried to make it good, but it still fell very very short for me. Overall I feel like this book had great potential but it just really wasn't for me.

Last week, 2nd Graders culminated their unit on immigration with a performance and Ellis Island simulation in the Broad Street Ballroom. The students, who have been studying the challenges that many faced in coming to this country through Ellis Island in the late 19th and early 20th century, reenacted a typical day at the former port of entry into the United States. Students participated in experiential learning as they rotated through three inspection stations: legal, mental, and medical, just as some of their ancestors did at the turn of the century. They also presented songs and writing about what they learned in this unit to their parents and peers.

Active Mentor - currently hosting PULSe students for laboratory rotations and recruiting PULSe students into the laboratory; serves on preliminary exam committees
Current Research Interests:
My research interests are in understanding how pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria are able to use virulence factors found on their surface to mediate infection. These virulence factors are found in the outer membrane and belong to a class of surface proteins commonly referred to as outer membrane proteins (OMPs). In particular, my lab will investigate the multi-component complex called the BAM complex, which is responsible for the biogenesis of all OMPs, in hopes of understanding how it is able to fold and insert OMPs into the outer membrane. We will use a combination of techniques to accomplish this including X-ray crystallography, electron microscopy, crosslinking, and various functional assays. Our ultimate goal is to use the information from the structural and functional characterization as a starting point for drug discovery and development targeting the BAM complex in a species specific manner.

On my first trip to Hawaiʻi in 2004 my sister, mother, and two nephews stayed for the first half of the trip at the Sheraton Waikiki which had the most fantastic buffet for meals! Breakfast afforded everything that you can think of plus things for the Japanese guests I never would have thought of! The supper buffet was even better: lamb, pork, all sorts of veggies, and enough desserts to give you diabetes just by passing by!
I love to eat a good meal especially when eating with others. Sharing a meal fuels not only our bodies but our relationship as well. Even more than eating, I love to cook and have been told by others that I am good at it, although I've had no formal training other than being apprenticed by two of the monks in the monastery during my first two years there.
Come to think of it, cooking is very much like doing my artwork! I take separate ingredients and turn them into something greater and tastier than their individual selves! Having cooked a good meal, I take real pleasure in watching the faces of those for whom the meal was made and seeing and hearing their reactions. I love that moment when eyes widen and a groan of delight comes out and the proof of their enjoyment is when they ask for more! I think that there is something spiritual in cooking for others in that it involves the giving away of yourself… of your time, of your talent, of your experience.
On our last trip (as a family) to Hawaiʻi in 2010 we were all greatly dismayed to discover that the Sheraton no longer offers that buffet experience! We had so worked ourselves up to having one more wonderful dinner experience at the Sheraton that when we found out it was gone we lost all interest in dinner! I forget what we settled for that evening but it definitely was a settling-for!
One of my hopes for when I move to Hawaiʻi in June of 2019 is to be exposed to all sorts of dishes that will broaden my basically-Italian culinary repertoire! As a friend of mine has said, "So many dishes to try, so little time!" Bring on the food!

|Elizabeth "Libby" Holder
She began work at the Woman's College library with a strong background in librarianship, including work as Assistant Librarian at Salem College (1935-1937) and children's room librarian at New York Public Library (1937-1940). She had also worked as a reporter for the Winston-Salem Journal-Sentinel (1941-1943) and head of the children's books section at Straughans' Book Shop (1945-1946). When she began at Woman's College, she was offered an annual salary of $2200.
In addition to her library work, Holder studied art at Columbia University and enjoyed illustrating. In 1948, she illustrated the book Tell Me a Story by Katharine Boring Rondthaler (Bethlehem, Pa., The Comenius Press). This book featured children's stories about the early history of the Moravian church and the surviving costumes and traditions of the wife of the President of Salem College. Holder's illustrations were all done in pen and ink, but printed on a light blue paper. As Holder noted in a form submitted to the campus news bureau, "the costumes of the children and architectural detail are authentic, even though imaginatively interpreted." She also contributed illustrations to the 1955 book Old Salem and North Carolina Cookery and numerous other pamphlets and publications.
Perhaps one of the most exciting challenges during this time period, though, was a move of the campus library from the old Carnegie Library building to the new library building (now Jackson Library) in 1950. The move was a long and complicated process. As Holder noted in a 1990 oral history interview, the move was completed using campus laundry baskets. She notes, "they had a chute up to the second floor and our books were packed in the laundry baskets and sent there - the chute - into an awaiting truck. Then they were carted across over to the new library. And each stack was assigned a member of the building and grounds to help unpack." Initially, the library staff had hoped to do the move after commencement, but unfortunately, they had to do the move during exam time. She proudly noted, though, that the library was never inaccessible to students. She stated, "if you put in an order for a book in the morning, we guaranteed to find it for you by two o'clock in the afternoon. It might be in the truck. It might be in a basket. It might be in the new building. But we tried."
In 1955, Holder completed her master's degree in library science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Her master's paper was a history of the WC library. Three years later, she left the Woman's College to serve as Librarian at Brevard College (Brevard, NC). But, in August 1963, she returned to Greensboro as Head Reference Librarian at UNCG. The school's name had changed since she had left, and, in one year, undergraduate men would begin enrolling.
The changes kept coming for both Holder and Jackson Library. After the retirement of Director of the Library Charles Adams in 1969, Holder served as the Acting Director until his successor James Thompson arrived in 1970. Then in 1973, the library tower addition opened.
|Holder dressed in 18th century Moravian costume
After her retirement, Holder remained in Greensboro where she was an active member of the First Moravian Church and served as the congregation's librarian. She also frequently dressed in 18th century Moravian costume to do presentations for elementary school children. She also volunteered at the Greensboro Historical Museum, where she was honored with the Governor's Volunteer Service Award. Holder passed away on October 19, 2009 at age 95.

If you have read any of the posts on this site you will know the many benefits of pure coconut water such as:
- helps prevent heart attacks
- fights free radicals to avoid cancer
- has anti-aging effects
- contains electrolytes that help lower high blood pressure
- is full of vitamins and minerals such as vitamins B and C
- contains trans-zeatin which is used to treat dementia and Alzheimer's disease
The taste is mild and it is often used as a mixer with other health-producing drinks such as pineapple juice and green tea. However, not all coconut water that is for sale is equal in health benefits. Of course pure coconut water comes directly from a young coconut. Since not everyone lives near a coconut grove, let's explore which of the commercial drinks are the best for your health.
First, here are some of the things to avoid when shopping for your coconut water.
- coconut water made from concentrate, not fresh – This is a good way to cut down the vitamin and mineral benefits
- taking coconut water from mature coconuts or from young ones that were harvested weeks before the water is extracted – When coconuts become more mature, the water looses some of the nutrients. Likewise when the coconuts are harvested young but left on the ground sometimes for weeks some of the health benefits are lost.
- adding "natural" flavors or sugar – Chances are that if you see flavors or sweeteners added the water comes from a mature coconut, and these are added to cover up the now acidic and less nutritious flavor of the water.
- pasteurizing it with heat – Here is another way to decrease the mineral and vitamin content. According to foodbabe.com, a website which explores what is really in your food,
" It has been shown that heat also destroys some of the vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients and also denatures enzymes – stripping its benefits and much of its flavor. If coconut water is from concentrate, this would be the second time it's heated. Obviously, your best bet is to seek out and find unpasteurized raw coconut water."
- The worst of all – dipping coconuts in formaldehyde or sodium metabisulphite – This sounds like a horror show, but it is done before sending whole coconuts to other countries to keep them from spoiling. Certainly some of these strong poisons could seep into the coconut meat and water. If you live far from a coconut producing country, please be careful about buying fresh coconuts, especially ones with the green husks still on.
The bottom line is to read the labels on the coconut water containers. You want water that is HPP (high pressure processing) or at least minimally heated during the processing, without added ingredients, collected from young coconuts and the water extracted immediately, and of course taken from organic coconuts for pure coconut water.
CocosPure fits all of these criteria and will give you a nutritious and tasty selection of coconut water. As we stated several times in these blog posts, CocosPure:
• tastes better.
• is 100% natural, never from concentrate, no sugar, additives or preservatives.
• Single source origin to maintain taste and consistency.
• is only from fresh young coconuts specific to the regions of Thailand and Vietnam.
• is always sourced from fresh young coconuts, never mature coconuts which have a sour taste and are less nutritious.
• is harvested from coconuts and specially handpicked to our strict requirements. All of our coconut water is ethically sourced and processed using a minimal heat process.

Today, the team of Cryptic Studios and Perfect World Entertainment, are releasing the "Age of Discovery" expansion for Star Trek Online which brings in new content which expands on the CBS All Access series, Star Trek: Discovery. The update will feature two new voice actors to the game, reprising their on air TV roles – namely Mary Wiseman (as Cadet Sylvia Tilly) and Jeffrey Combs (as Thy'kir Shran, son of Thy'lek Shran from Star Trek: Enterprise).
With the release of today's update, Star Trek fans can become a part of Star Trek: Discovery by creating a new playable Discovery era Starfleet Captain and participating in a brand new starting experience. The update also includes two new Discovery episodes for all characters, a new Task Force Operation to defend Starbase 1 and a revamped Mission Journal to help new players explore principle story arcs in the game.
The update will also bring in a new random Task Force Operations system (for additional rewards), and a new Reputation Tier (all reputations will be extended to Tier 6 and will include upgrades to existing rewards, plus some new ones).
For those who need a more visual take at what the update is bringing, then the team has you covered with this new teaser trailer, featuring Cadet Tilly at Starfleet Academy. Lets watch, shall we…
This morning's press release also shared some additional details on additional "Age of Discovery" content that will be making it's way into Star Trek Online, starting later this year.
Today's update is just the beginning for Age of Discovery, which will continue to bring Star Trek Online players even more Star Trek: Discovery content with future updates. In November, Captains can join the very first Featured Task Force Operation, centered around the pivotal Battle at the Binary Stars. Up next, players will be able to explore the mysterious forest planet of Pahvo from the Discovery episode "Into the Forest I Go," during Star Trek Online's anniversary event early next year.
For now, however, players will be teaming up with their fellow cadet Sylvia Tilly for their first mission, when a vicious Klingon attack by J'Ula (matriarch of the House of Mo'Kai, sister of T'Kuvma and a character from the IDW comic series Star Trek Discovery – The Light of Kahless) interrupts their maiden voyage,
