Credit Suisse Study: Zermatt top in offers and demand
Eighty per cent of regular guests who come to Zermatt every winter know why. Zermatt is top in terms of offers and demand. This is also proved by the latest Credit Suisse study on the most successful winter destinations from 6 December 2011. And Zermatt is not the most expensive!
Credit Suisse has published a study entitled "Swiss Tourism – Competing Winter Sports Destinations" in which Zermatt takes first place among Switzerland's leading winter destinations. The study analysed 31 winter sport destinations. It shows that Zermatt, and in some segments also St. Moritz, have the widest range of offers, but that Zermatt is ahead in terms of demand. This means that Zermatt is popular across the board. And guests know which top offers await them in Zermatt. In terms of room prices, Zermatt takes "only" fifth place behind Gstaad, St. Moritz, Sils in the Engadin and Verbier.
The mix makes the difference
Zermatt scores astoundingly well as follows: highest marks for entertainment, second-highest for accommodation, third for winter sports infrastructure, fourth for climatic and scenic conditions and fifth for summer infrastructure.
In the demand segment, Zermatt is shown to be the absolute frontrunner with above-average bed-occupancy rates and little seasonal fluctuation. The reason for this could lie in the fact that Zermatt has increasingly focused on events that extend the season. Cultural events in particular are often independent of the weather and, according to the study, can be staged in the low season (example the Zermatt Unplugged music festival).
To quote the study: "The two top destinations of Zermatt and St. Moritz succeed in attracting guests from all over the world. They owe this success to wide-ranging and correspondingly attractive offers that satisfy almost every requirement. With the Matterhorn, Zermatt also has an unparalleled jewel in its crown. Tourists travel to Zermatt from all over the world to marvel at the Matterhorn." Also mentioned is the altitude of the mountain rail and cableways (3880 m) in Zermatt, a guarantee of snow. Additional trumps: a ski area on a glacier with summer skiing. And "Zermatt offers ... a wide variety of shopping and has a professional and appealing Internet appearance." Zermatt also achieves a relatively high amount per room per night and according to the study, the number of overnight stays has enjoyed "above average growth".

"I ordered these cards for shower Thank You's. I live in Germany and ordered the cards to say "Danke schön!" (Thank you!). They turned out great! The quality of the paper is fantastic. The envelope size presents a bit of a problem with the German post, because it is smaller than a normal post envelope, it costs ~2.50 EUR to send domestic post (each card). It would be great to offer an envelope size that is a bit bigger, for European clients : ) I also ordered the matching envelope labels and am really happy with these as well!"
"This was perfect card to use for "thank you's" from my newborn daughter. The paper is very thick and feels expensive. I really liked the simple design, and I felt that these could be used for many years (if I have extras). I just wish that I could have changed the color of the cards. I personally prefer purples to pinks for little girls, but I didn't have that option."
"Easily edited for personalization. We had used the same design for shower invitations so the theme was carried out, but they could certainly stand on their own."
"This is a simple yet very sweet card. Would make a lovely gift for any girl/woman. I chose black ink for the text, which is a nice contrast to the pink."
"These note cards are even more darling in person! The blue has a little big more green than the website reveals, but it's pretty close. They look great and are perfect for sending thank-yous for my baby boy."

Conair Thermacell Curling Iron 6 6
Works great. Would love to have a thermacell curling iron that has a smaller diam. barrel for shorter hair. January 1, 2014
This product was envied This product was envied in the public bath house after floating in the Dead Sea. It did all I needed to smooth out and put a curl to my hair. Highly recommend! My hair anxiety when traveling is over. November 30, 2013
Only problem - could not leave fuel in curling iron. Must be removed each time used April 4, 2013
Best curling iron ever!! I've had this curling iron for over 17 years. No cords to tangle and light weight. Never had any problems with it and its used every week!! Great for travel. October 15, 2012
Great travel purchase! Traveling to places like Africa where you can't count on having electricity every day is a great and fun experience - except for my straight, thin hair. I tried this curling iron as soon as I got it and it worked great! It's just as easy to use as a regular curling iron, it curled my hair well and there isn't any need for electricity. Now I just hope that it really is ok with the TSA next time we travel. August 28, 2013
Tough Curling Iron This is a good travel product, however the spring in the lever that opens to wrap a curl is way too stiff to be used when one has her arms raised to an awkward position. Unfortunately I had to return it. Wish the lever was lighter, I'd have kept it. August 30, 2013

Between the Lines By David Lias Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus
Editorial Page, New York Sun, 1897
We take pleasure in answering thus prominently the communication below, expressing at the same time our great gratification that its faithful author is numbered among the friends of The Sun:
I am 8 years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Papa says, "If you see it in The Sun, it's so." Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus?
Virginia O'Hanlon
Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except what they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or children's, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.
He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! How dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus!
It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The external light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.
Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies. You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if you did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world.
You tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived could tear apart. Only faith, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding.
No Santa Claus? Thank God he lives and lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay 10 times 10,000 years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!!
From The People's Almanac
Francis P. Church's editorial, "Yes Virginia, There is a Santa Claus" was an immediate sensation, and became one of the most famous editorials ever written. It first appeared in the The New York Sun in 1897, more than a century ago, and was reprinted annually until 1949 when the paper went out of business.
Thirty-six years after her letter was printed, Virginia O'Hanlon recalled the events that prompted her letter: "Quite naturally I believed in Santa Claus, for he had never disappointed me. But when less fortunate little boys and girls said there wasn't any Santa Claus, I was filled with doubts. I asked my father, and he was a little evasive on the subject.
"It was a habit in our family that whenever any doubts came up as to how to pronounce a word or some question of historical fact was in doubt, we wrote to the Question and Answer column in The Sun. Father would always say, 'If you see it in the The Sun, it's so,' and that settled the matter.
" 'Well, I'm just going to write The Sun and find out the real truth,' I said to father.
"He said, 'Go ahead, Virginia. I'm sure The Sun will give you the right answer, as it always does.' "
And so Virginia sat down and wrote her parents' favorite newspaper.
Her letter found its way into the hands of a veteran editor, Francis P. Church. The son of a Baptist minister, Church had covered the Civil War for The New York Times and had worked on The New York Sun for 20 years, more recently as an anonymous editorial writer.
Church, a sardonic man, had for his personal motto, "Endeavour to clear your mind of can't." When controversial subjects had to be tackled on the editorial page, especially those dealing with theology, the assignments were usually given to Church.
Now, he had in his hands a little girl's letter on a most controversial matter, and he was burdened with the responsibility of answering it.
"Is there a Santa Claus?" the childish scrawl in the letter asked. At once, Church knew that there was no avoiding the question. He must answer, and he must answer truthfully. And so he turned to his desk, and he began his reply which was to become one of the most memorable editorials in newspaper history.
Church married shortly after the editorial appeared. He died in April, 1906, leaving no children.
Virginia O'Hanlon received degrees from Hunter College and Columbia University, and in 1912 she began teaching in the New York City school system, later becoming a principal. After 47 years, she retired as an educator. Throughout her life she received a steady stream of mail about her Santa Claus letter, and to each reply she attached an attractive printed copy of the Church editorial. Virginia O'Hanlon Douglas died on May 13, 1971, at the age of 81, in a nursing home in Valatie, NY.

I still think that a 17 game NFL season is a better option than an 18 game season. Below is a copy of my orignal post. The only update I made is about the preseason. The preseason makes it a stronger option.
The Current Season Is Unfair
As you know, there are a couple of teams each year that play 5 preseason games. Most if NFL coaches would welcome to have extra preseason games. This gives the coaches extra time to evaluate and develop players for the regular season. By having two teams play 5 preseason games is unfair to the other 30 teams.
The NFL also have a regular season game that is played on a neutral site; overseas. This past year the Broncos play the 49ers in London. This forced the 49ers to give up a home game to play in London. The other 31 teams, including the Broncos, still have all 8 of home game. This is unfair to the 49ers and to the NFL fans in San Francisco.
A Fair Season
I propose that the NFL should have a 17 game regular season; not 18 or the current 16. It will make the schedule fair for all 32 teams and it will help the NFL market its product. The teams will play the 17th game on a neutral site. Each team will play 8 home games, 8 away games, and 1 game played on a neutral site. It will eliminate a team giving up a home regular season just to play a game over seas.
The extra game can be taken away from the preseason schedule. Each NFL team will play three preseason games; 1 home game, 1 away game, and 1 game at neutral site. NFL fans in cities that do not have a NFL team might be more willing to go to a preseason game, than NFL fans that do have a NFL team in their town. If you total the number from the preseason and regular season, the total number remains the same; 20. Instead of being 4 plus 16, it will be 3 plus 17. (I do not see how the player's union can object to this.)
A Marketing Tool
Having each team play 2 games at a neutral site gives the NFL 32 games that cities around the world bid and compete for. The same way that the NCAA has cities bid and compete to host their Bowl games, conference championship, basketball tournaments, etc. Under this schedule, the NFL could award the city of Los Angeles multiple games. LA could feel like it is a NFL city without a NFL team. The current NFL cities could also compete to host these neutral site games also. NFL fans in cities that consistently sellout their home games will come out to see a NFL game, even if it is not their home team that is playing. What if the Steelers played the Packers in rematch regular season game in Dallas? Several NFL teams have a large fan base in other cities besides their home town. This may give those fans a chance to see their favorite team play in person.
Summary Benefits
- An expanded regular season for all NFL fans
- A fair regular season for all 32 NFL teams
- Neutral site will create a new marketing tool for the NFL
- Displaced fans may have a chance to go see their favorite team play
- A win/win deal for everyone

Chicken and Garlic Potatoes Recipe
3.6 5
Originally my father-in-law's invention, this home-style oven entree is one we never tire of. I've made a few improvisations with seasonings to suit the next generation's tastes.
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and sliced
- 1 large onion, cut into small wedges
- 6 bone-in chicken breast halves (8 ounces each)
- 1 teaspoon dried tarragon
- 1 teaspoon rubbed sage
- 1 teaspoon salt, optional
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 whole garlic bulb
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- Place potatoes and onion in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Top with chicken. Combine the tarragon, sage, salt if desired and pepper; sprinkle over chicken. Cut the top off the garlic bulb (the end that comes to a closed point) so each clove is exposed.
- Place cut side up in the baking dish. Drizzle oil over garlic and chicken. Cover and bake at 350° for 60 minutes. Uncover and bake 10-15 minutes longer or until chicken juices run clear and garlic is soft.
- Transfer chicken to a serving platter and keep warm. Cool garlic for 5 minutes; gently squeeze garlic into a small bowl and lightly mash. Toss garlic with potatoes and onion; arrange around chicken. Yield: 6 servings.

We really liked this recipe. It was delicious, and not too overwhelming. This is coming from a girl who is not a big fan of onion or garlic either.

My son loved this recipe. My husband thought was a bit bland. I will add some more garlic and maybe some italian dressing or something to give it some more flavor next time.

A coroner's finding that all five people killed in Fero's Bar and Grill in October were stabbed helps define the killer or killers, authorities say.
"From the offender's point of view, it takes a different kind of pathology to kill someone up close and personal," said Gregg McCrary, a former FBI profiler from Virginia. "It's different than killing someone with a gun from a distance. The victim is pleading, crying, coughing, yelling. It's bloody. It's awful."
On Oct. 17, Daria M. Pohl, 22; Kellene Fallon, 45; Young Suk Fero, 63; Ross Richter, 29; and Tereasa Beesley, 45, were fatally stabbed inside the bar at 351 S. Colorado Blvd., according to a coroner's report.
McCrary doesn't have specifics of the Fero's case, but if police are correct that three killers were involved, some victims clearly had to wait their turn.
Each victim suffered multiple stab wounds, Denver coroner's spokeswoman Michelle Weiss-Samaras said.
Dexter Lewis, 22; Joseph Hill, 27; and his brother, Lynell Hill, 24, have been charged with murder, robbery and arson in the cases.
The victims were discovered after a fire broke out in the bar.
Weiss-Samaras said it took nearly two months to complete the autopsies because the coroner wanted to know if the fire contributed in any way to the deaths of the victims. It did not.
Police say the crime was initially a robbery. According to the charging document, the three were armed with a knife and a gun.

For Chris Vrenna, Today's Pro Tools Delivers Yesterday's Analog Sounds
"I was fortunate to have grown up in the early '80s, when synthesizers and electronics were really taking off," he says. "When I was 12 or so, I saw an ad for an electronic drum kit, and saved up all my money to buy one. I fell in love with the idea that I could create beats using any sound at all, not just kick, snare and toms. So for me, the advent of MIDI sequencing and digital recording was just huge."
The first thing I said when I booted up the new version was 'wow, that's just beautiful!' I stare at Pro Tools for ten or twelve hours a day, six days a week, and this new interface makes my work a real pleasure.
Pro Tools has always been a big part of Vrenna's creative arsenal, and the new enhancements to Pro Tools 8 make it an even more powerful tool. He finds the new user interface particularly impressive. "The first thing I said when I booted up the new version was 'wow, that's just beautiful!' I stare at Pro Tools for ten or twelve hours a day, six days a week, and this new interface makes my work a real pleasure."
Vintage sounds have always been a big part of Vrenna's sound, and the arsenal of new virtual instruments in Pro Tools 8 offer a wide-ranging palette of luscious sounds. "There are so many great instruments and sounds in Pro Tools 8," he says. "Boom is a lot of fun – it's like having an old (Roland) TR-808 or TR-909 drum machine. Transfuser is insane – a heck of a lot of fun to use. And I love working with Strike, especially the individual note muting. And Vacuum – the sounds are all so fat, so dirty and analog sounding."
Most important for Vrenna, though, is the ease with which Pro Tools 8 allows him to manipulate audio and MIDI in composing and remixing. "MIDI sequencing and sampling has always been part of my sound," he says, "and Pro Tools 8 enables me to easily and seamlessly integrate that into my work. It's such a streamlined, intuitive workflow."

Elastic-Back Denim Pants 26 26
The denim pants I have been looking for! First of all these pants are pricey at $79 and are somewhat reasonable at $59. If you are looking for a bargain on these pants then $59 is about it. If you want a real bargain on cheaply made pants go some where else. If you really want quality pants that look good and keep their look traveling then these are the pants. I wore them for a 5 day trip to Las Vegas to see my granddaughters and on the flight out to see them spilled a glass of wine on them, you could not tell. They were cleaned and then wore them for 5 days in 100 + degree heat and they kept their good looks. Liked them so much I bought a second pair. Which I will be taking for another 30 day trip to the west coast. I would recommend to anyone who buys these pants and need hemming have them altered by travelsmith. Also I have tried them with and with out a cuffs. Have them cuffed, they will look much better. As for the fit they are sized a little larger then what you would expect and the comfort waist is great for comfort while traveling and guys who's waist expands and shrinks. Great pants you shouldn't be disappointed. September 6, 2013
The Best Jeans I just love these Jeans.. I wear them all the time... great comfort!! Super Quality!!! February 19, 2014
Second pair. First pair ripped at crotch early I like the product but as indicated above the first pair purchased in July of 2013 ripped at the crotch after maybe a dozen times worn. No traumatic experience caused the rip. I would like to return them for credit and would like the mailing materials sent to me. Thanks, Jerry Weber February 11, 2014
Awful stile I look like a sack of potatoes, the finish is horribly wide pants... December 19, 2013
Comfortable & Good Looking Bought a pair of these pants for my husband for European vacation. He found them so comfortable I bought him 2 more pair on sale. The elastic waistband fit well without binding and he felt comfortable keeping them at waist height rather than having them ride under the "spare tire". Nice to see those pants belted where they belong! Good quality mid-weight material that washes & wears well. Buttoned back pockets an added plus. Deep front pockets easily accessible due to pleated front. Pricing is a little steep at full price but a good buy if you can catch a sale. October 25, 2013
Great pair of travel jeans This purchase was for a replacement pair of the same jeans that I have simply worn out traveling. The new pair of stretch jeans with a security zip pocket and a split holder in the bottom of the right pocket is perfect for traveling. I haven't had them two weeks and they have already traveled and flown on me for 8,000+ miles. They wash and dry with no problem. The waist size and the custom length were perfect. Too bad for TravelSmith that they are so durable and comfortable. I will buy another pair when these wear out but it it going to be a some time. Thanks Travelsmith! July 16, 2010
Good Buy Elastic in waist makes these so comfortable. Fabric not harsh & stiff. Very nice appearance & come out of laundry looking great. Would definitely buy again (and will, in different colors). Caveat: would have liked to have them hemmed to my exact length. Ordering an inch longer to meet Travel Smith's specific hem lengths meant they look sloppy. I will now have to pay a tailor to re-hem them to correct length. Will ask for them shipped unhemmed, next time. March 26, 2010
Very nice jeans I have purchased several of these jeans over the last couple of years. I have yet to actually wear a pair out. I did tear a hole in one pair on a very large rose bush thorn. They fade slowly, the material gets thinner, they fit a little looser, but hold together very well. I just use them for more casual days as they age. The only problem I have had is that the buttons fall off very quickly. Once re-sewn, that problem is fixed. June 14, 2010

Top Truck Challenge, Tall Jeeps, and Mislabled Engines
Mensa Candidates = Not Us?
Looking through your "Engine IQ Test" answers ("Willie's Workbench," June '11), I may be wrong (and often am), but it looks like your answers could use some tweaking. For instance, you say:
"Cobra Jet: 429 Ford performance engine; higher-horsepower version referred to as a Super Cobra Jet."
Nothing wrong with the answer, but you dissed the original Cobra Jet. It was the FE-based 428. The 429 CJ followed.
Also, according to you:
"Interceptor: 312ci Ford "police" Y-block V-8; 210 horsepower, used from 1957-60. Name later used in 1968-69 for 429ci FE V-8."
The 429ci was part of the 385 family of big-blocks (along with the 460). The FE line included the 390, 427, and 428, among others.
Michael Reagan
Via the Internet
After reading "Willie's Workbench," I found myself double-checking two of the engine names that stick in my head.
The first was "Turbo-Fire V-8," which I was sure of because I had one in my '70 Nova SS. I ended up checking out the Chevy small-block info on Wikipedia (great site). According to Wiki, the small-block V-8 first became noticed (nicknamed) as the "Mighty Mouse" motor (after the cartoon character) and later shortened to "Mouse."
The next one I didn't see was "Wildcat," which I only knew from the '60s Buick Wildcat. It had a 465 engine (the torque rating, not the displacement), which had dual four-barrel carbs from the factory. After reading Wiki, I found out that it came in several different displacements and carb configurations. It's from the family of Buick V-8s known as "Nailheads" (which also was not on your list). The Wildcat was available from 1962 until 1966, and the dual four-barrel version (known as "Super Wildcat") was originally shipped with the intake and carbs in the trunk to be installed at the dealership; in 1966, it was possible to be ordered with dual fours from the factory.
Another neat fact I found was that the SR-71 Blackbird used a Wildcat engine mounted on a trolley for a starter motor.
Harold Shumate
Via the Internet
You forgot the first one of all: the Flathead Ford.
There also happens to be an engine called the "Lightning" that was also put in the Willys Jeep. I know because I have a '46 Willys with said engine. When I was younger, I worked in an engine rebuilding shop, and we serviced government contracts to build anything from Jeep engines to big Continental engines for 5-ton military trucks. I did teardowns, checked for spun bearings, and dusted for cracked blocks. Now the Lightning is somewhat of a weird make by Continental that has a two-piece rear seal, as the "Go Devil" in the Jeep has a rope-type of rear seal. In my years of working at the engine rebuilder's, I never ran across a Jeep engine with a two-piece rear seal—all had the rope seal and the rope that goes down the sides of the main bearing as this one does.
Joey M. Toth
Via the Internet
Hey, you forgot the Mopar "Maxwedge" of the early '60s and the "Magnum" of the late '60s. (We refer to a Chevy engine as a "Boat Anchor," but that's just a Mopar family's preference.)
Tom Kough
Via the Internet
We researched all of our engine data as thoroughly as possible, but we figured there'd probably a few minor flubs among all the names, dates, and applications we cited. (Actually, we're kinda surprised we only messed up those two Ford motors.) Of course, there were plenty of old engine names we just plain forgot to include, or that we omitted due to lack of space—which means we may need to publish another IQ Test sometime down the road. Thanks to all who wrote in with their suggestions.
Super Jeep Mistaken Identity
You're mistaken about the 1976 Super Jeep ("Jeep: The First 70 Years," May '11). The Super Jeep was a 1973 model year option and available for only that year. The pictures shown of the two "Super Jeeps" are of '73 models, not '76 models. You can tell by the outside windshield wiper motor cover, the high placement of "Jeep" logo on the sides, and the black windshields. The '76-and-later model years had inside-mounted wiper motors, body colored windshields, and "Jeep" placed lower on the sides. Also, the '75 CJ-5 Renegade in the picture is actually a '76 CJ-7 Renegade. I also have sales brochures from 1976 that claim that the 304 V-8 was standard with the Renegade package, contrary to what you state.
Mitch Dunbar
Wichita, KS
You've got a sharp eye. Thanks for the corrections.
Garage-Friendly Silver Bullet JK
About that Trail Master 4½-inch short-arm kit for JKs ("Rock Bound," May '11): You put 37-inch tires on your Jeep. Will it fit in a standard-height parking garage or home garage? I'd really like to go 37s (instead of 35s), but I have to be able to get it into a parking garage.
Danny Kidd
Amelia, OH
Robin Stover replies: The Silver Bullet project Jeep does indeed fit inside most typical garage structures when equipped with 37-inch tires shown in the article, but with 40-inch rubber, it would be questionable. The total height of the rig on 37s is 6' 4". I suggest you check the clearance of your garage first. Happy wheeling.
Top Truck: Who Goes, Who Blows (Guess Who?)
I am totally unsatisfied with the Top Truck Challenge results for 2011. In the Jeep class, I understand four Canadians got in. We bought every magazine we could find (that's in three states), and for the second year in a row, the best Jeep did not get in again. He was the alternate for last year (Terry Estes out of Texas), and he should have automatically gotten in this year. He is the only diesel-powered rig in the group, and I feel sure that he would win if he could only get in. What you can do? Put 10 in each class and also make the entry ballots easier to come by.
James Patterson
Neeces, SC
Well shucks, we only count the ballots, so if our field of competitors is all-Canadian, all-American, or all-Cyborg, it's out of our control.
About magazine and ballot availability, that's a valid point, and one we'll continue to work with our circulation department to improve. As an alternative, we've heard some crazy rumors of people ordering hundreds of magazines from our back issues department (www.simbackissues.com) just to get a hold of the extra ballots in the April issue. You might give 'em a shout next year and see if they can help you out.
About doubling the size of our field, well, it's a lot easier said than done. We'd pretty much need to double the size of Top Truck's annual operating budget to make it work, which is another way of saying it ain't gonna happen anytime soon. You can see the list of this year's finalists online at fourwheeler.com, and we'll have complete coverage of TTC in our November and December issues.

Delta Delta Delta's national philanthropy is children's cancer research. Tri Delta is partnered with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, TN. St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatment that is not covered by insurance. St. Jude covers the cost of everything: treatment, food, travel and lodging for patients and a family member. With approximately 5,400 active status patients, the hospital's daily operating costs are nearly $1.3 million, which are primarily covered by public contributions. In July 2010, Tri Delta made a pledge to raise $15 million in 5 years for St. Jude. By February 2014, Tri Delta chapters nationwide had raised $15 million in just 3.5 years, a year and a half ahead of schedule!
Our chapter holds several events each year in order to raise money: Sincerely Yours letters are sent out to family and friends for donations, name-brand-jeans are sold on campus during Charity Denim, sisters walk for Relay for Life teams, and teacher competitions are held in which the teacher with the most raised money must kiss our terrier mascot. Our service to our philanthropy also extends beyond Wofford College. Several of our sisters have visited and volunteered at St. Jude. The walls of the hospital are covered with murals, and we are proud there is one thanking the members of Delta Delta Delta.
For more information about Tri Delta's partnership with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital as well as our other philanthropy efforts, please visit the Delta Delta Delta philanthropy website.

The contest worked out great! The results exceeded our expectations. We will use again in the future if it is needed.
Logo needs to be updated and modernized from our existing logo. The logo needs to represent our transition into newer technologies while emphasizing automation. Would like to incorporate the existing logo's arrow symbol but improved. The arrows do not have to be the central part of the new logo.
Update: The colors are a suggestion/guideline and the logo doesn't have to be the exact colors we chose. We would like to see a font that is clean, unique and high-tech.
Update #2: The symbol to the left of our current logo is meant to represent pressure and vacuum. Arrows wasn't the best initial description. "Arrows" are not a requirement but we would like a "symbol" that we can use to represent our brand of high tech products and services.
Update #3: We would like to see less or no arrows in the new submissions. There as been too much focus on the arrows.
Update #4: The "K" logo needs to be a standalone entity that represents our company. We want to use it as a means of representing our brand. It doesn't have to show pressure, vacuum, or arrows. We want it to be progressive, modern, and clean. It must contain a "K". Please include our tagline "Automation and Motion Control".

Product Launch - US: Huneeus Vintners' Neyen Vintage 2008
By Olly Wehring | 16 October 2012
Click through to view Huneeus Vintners' Neyen Vintage 2008
Huneeus Vintners' Neyen Vintage 2008
Category - Wine, red, Chile, blend, 14.5% abv
Available - Since earlier this month
Location - US, in both on- and off-trade
Price - SRP of US$49.99 per 75cl bottle
Distribution - Huneeus Vintners
Huneeus Vintners has rolled out the latest vintage from its Neyen wine brand. The 2008 expression is a Carmenere (80%) Cabernet Sauvignon (20%) blend.
Neyen Vintage 2008 is produced from vines in the Apalta Colchagua Valley in Chile.
Huneeus Vintners is proud to announce the US release of Neyen's 2008 vintage. This iconic Chilean blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenère from Chile's famed Apalta Valley comes from a 3,300 acre estate distinct in its history and beauty. Neyen invites you to discover the unique estate and learn more about the 2008 vintage on their brand new website.
Neyen is an estate wine produced from a historic vineyard estate in the heart of the Apalta Valley. The property has original Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenère vines from Bordeaux that were planted in 1890, putting these vineyards among the oldest and most prized in Chile today.
"The celebrated terroir, along with the ancient vines at Neyen, makes it a truly rare and distinctive place, and I believe one of the most promising estates in Chile. In fact, if this estate were in Napa Valley, it would be one of the most historic, iconic, and sought-after vineyards." - Agustin Francisco Huneeus
Neyen means "spirit" in the native language, and reflects the desire to capture the soul and beauty of the vineyard with a blend of the estate's emblematic varieties – perhaps the world's most famous red grape, Cabernet Sauvignon, and the lost Bordeaux grape, Carmenère. Carmenère at one time was widely cultivated in Bordeaux, but disappeared after phylloxera devastated the region. Recently, it was rediscovered in Chile, where it was believed to be a special clone of Merlot. As it turns out, Carmenère was brought over from Bordeaux in field blends in the 1800's to estates like Neyen, where it has survived all these years and still provides beautiful intense fruit.
Raul Rojas founded Neyen estate in Apalta in 2002, and partnered with Agustin Huneeus, proprietor of Quintessa in Napa Valley, in 2011. The partnership has brought together two great families of wine and reinforces the Huneeus' family commitment to and vision for the potential of Chilean wine.
Neyen is crafted by a team of expert viticulturists and winemakers led by Rodrigo Soto. Born in Chile, Rodrigo brings a wealth of international winemaking experience to Neyen. Minimum intervention is central to Rodrigo's winemaking philosophy. Together with their resident winemaker, Soledad Sanchez, they employ art, dedication and precision to reach the maximum expression of terroir.
Neyen's 2008 vintage is a blend of 80% Carmenere and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. This beautiful blend provides intriguing aromas of red berry fruits, plum and subtle notes of cassis on the nose. On the palate, it is an elegant and balanced wine with layers of black fruits, nice oak and tobacco notes followed by soft, structured tannins. Neyen has a strong history of accolades, and the 2008 vintage received 93 points from the Wine Advocate and 91 points from the Wine Spectator.
The website provides information on the history of the estate, vineyards and wine cellar, as well as background information on the winemakers and proprietors. It also includes product information, video and picture galleries, a trade section including accolades and downloads, information on Neyen tours and tastings and a complete listing on where to purchase the wines on and off premise. All capturing the beauty and history of the Neyen Estate.
Neyen is available nationwide at fine wine and spirit shops (SRP. $49.99/750ml).
Huneeus Vintners South American portfolio also includes Veramonte, Primus and Ritual Wine.

8:15 a.m., Aug. 6, 1945, Hiroshima, Japan: Children are on their way to school. Women are making beds, clearing away the morning dishes. An all-clear sounds after the 7 a.m. air raid warning. And then, the U.S. plane dropped the world's first atomic weapon.
A woman prays Aug. 9, 2008, in front of the Statue of Peace, hours ahead of a ceremony to mark the 1945 atomic bombing of Nagasaki, Japan. Maine voters must contact congressional delegation members about heeding President Obama's recent call for further nuclear stockpile cuts, a reader says.
2008 File Photo/The Associated Press
There followed a blinding flash in the sky and a great rush of air, as a loud rumble of noise extended for many miles around the city. Buildings fell, fires raged and a great cloud of dust and smoke cast a pall of darkness over the city.
Estimates tell us that 140,000 people were incinerated on that day. Many more died later from radiation sickness.
7:50 a.m., Aug. 9, 1945, Nagasaki, Japan: An all-clear signal sounds at 8:30 a.m.
At 11:02 a.m., the U.S. plane dropped the world's second atomic weapon. Fires raged through the industrial city of Nagasaki.
Estimates tell us that 70,000 people were incinerated on that day. As in Hiroshima, many more died in later years from radiation sickness.
June 3, 2013, Brandenburg Gate. Berlin: U.S. President Obama pledges to:
• Pursue further reductions of deployed strategic nuclear warheads by up to one-third below the New START Treaty levels.
• Build support for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty, which would ban all nuclear testing.
• Call for a treaty to end production of fissile materials used to build nuclear weapons
August 2013: It is now our obligation to work with Reps. Chellie Pingree and Mike Michaud and Sens. Susan Collins and Angus King to ensure these goals are met.

City should save, not spend, extra state education funds
So, here we go again. The state is giving Portland almost $2 million ("Portland seeks quick vote on spending extra state funds," July 23), and what's the first thing on councilors' and school board members' minds? "How do we spend the money?"!
The most ludicrous idea yet is from school board members -- "Oh, let's hire back some people we laid off or add new positions to the education system."
Are you school board members for real? Seriously, so you hire them back and then what happens next year? Duh! You either lay them off again or -- oh wait, you can just ask the taxpayers to give you more! Why not? You do every year, and the best part is you don't ask, we just take it.
Hint: Why doesn't the city put it aside for emergency use, or to lower or better yet, for once in your term, keep the tax rate the same instead of bleeding taxpayers dry?
We all know that the money to be spent has to be voted on, but why bother? The same "yuppies, nontaxpayers, apartment dwellers" well outnumber the people who actually pay taxes in this city. So find a way around wasting another $15,000 for a special election.
This city is going downhill every year, with tax rates rising, new laws and regulations adopted by our mayor and councilors. The new slogan should have been "Welcome to Portland, we rubber-stamp everything, and make you pay till you can't afford to live here anymore."
The only thing to look forward to every spring is the city elections. What a circus. We listen to each candidate tell us the same story over and over again about lowering taxes, then we vote for the one who doesn't mention it because that person is telling the truth.

Sgt. Chris Sparks said the Weaver girl was shopping between 7:55 p.m. and 8 p.m. at a store on the 5500 block of McClellan Boulevard when a man she didn't know touched her inappropriately. Sparks said the victim told store employees and the suspect drove away in his car before police arrived. Police gathered enough information to identify the man, but had not spoken to him as of Monday, the sergeant said.
A suspect is likely to be charged with second-degree sexual abuse, a felony, according to a police report.

Seau's suicide could be the turning point in player safety mission
Story Highlights
Junior Seau's death was tragic punctuation to a historically eventful two months
London Fletcher wants players to have mandatory counseling upon retirement
More on Seau's death; Ten Things I Think I Think; Quotes of the Week; more
First up this morning: A history lesson. We'll never see two months like we've just seen in any offseason. Ever. To recap:
March 2 -- The NFL says the Saints ran a sophisticated bounty program with defensive coordinator Gregg Williams the ringleader and between 22 and 27 defensive players willing participants.
March 7 -- Colts release Peyton Manning.
March 9 -- Within eight hours, the following three stories break: Manning, a free agent, covertly flies to Denver, where Tim Tebow led the Broncos to the playoffs two months earlier ... The Redskins trade three first-round picks and a second-rounder to St. Louis to acquire the second pick in the April draft, so as to take Baylor quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III ... The Jets sign quarterback Mark Sanchez to a stunning contract extension, with $40.5 million in new money. (Much of it, we find out within days, is not guaranteed.)
March 11 -- Brandon Marshall is accused of punching a woman during a skirmish at a New York nightclub.
March 12 -- The NFL announces salary-cap sanctions against Washington ($36 million) and Dallas ($10 million), for what the league says was dumping salary into the league's 2011 uncapped year to gain a competitive advantage. The Redskins and Cowboys say they'll appeal the ruling. Randy Moss comes out of retirement to sign with San Francisco.
March 13 -- Miami trades Brandon Marshall to Chicago, where, apparently, there are no nightclubs, for two third-round draft picks ... Secretly, at night, Niners coach Jim Harbaugh and offensive coordinator Greg Roman work out Manning at Duke University.
March 14 -- Detroit signs wide receiver Calvin Johnson to a $132 million contract, the largest deal in league history. That's $12 million more than the entire team's salary cap for the 2012 season.
March 15 -- Mario Williams, the most attractive defensive free agent on the market, stuns the league by taking only one trip and signing with Buffalo.
March 17 -- Free agent quarterback Alex Smith, upset the 49ers haven't stepped up to the plate in negotiations, flies to Miami on a red-eye to investigate jumping to the Dolphins. A Seahawks blogger on the flight breaks the story on Twitter.
March 18 -- Free agent quarterback Matt Flynn signs with Seattle, ostensibly to start at quarterback.
March 19 -- Peyton Manning agrees to terms with Denver.
March 20 -- Newsy day in the Keystone State: Hines Ward retires ... Houston defensive captain DeMeco Ryans is traded to Philadelphia.
March 21 -- Roger Goodell suspends Saints coach Sean Payton for the season, departed defensive coordinator Gregg Williams indefinitely, GM Mickey Loomis for eight games and defensive assistant Joe Vitt for six games, all for their roles in the bounty scandal.
March 22 -- Tim Tebow, three months removed from being the most famous player in the league, is traded from Denver to the Jets.
March 27 -- Bill Parcells, seriously considering taking the one-year Saints head-coaching job for his friend Sean Payton, plays golf with Payton and Loomis to see if they'd be able to work together.
April 5 -- Videographer Sean Pamphilon releases a tape of a Saints team meeting the night before a January playoff game in San Francisco, with some graphic detail of Gregg Williams seemingly urging his players to injure 49er players. "We've got to do everything in the world to make sure we kill Frank Gore's head,'' Williams says.
April 9 -- Goodell denies appeals by Saints coaches and Loomis.
April 12 -- The Saints announce Joe Vitt will be the 2012 interim coach, with Payton returning to coach the team in 2013. One problem: They don't announce who will coach the team for the six games Vitt is banned.
April 17 -- In yet another example of the league making news out of thin air, the NFL spends three televised hours releasing the 2012 schedule. Foes were already known for each team. Dates were released here. Denver has five prime-time games. Someone in the league office must be a medic, with Manning coming off four neck procedures in the previous two years.
April 20 -- Goodell visits Minnesota to tell legislators, in essence, that if they don't approve funding for a Vikings stadium, the team could go to the highest-bidding city (read: Los Angeles). Very soon.
April 24 -- Colts announce they'll pick Andrew Luck with the first pick in the draft.
April 26 -- There are 19 trades in the first round of an NFL draft that is as speedy (three hours) as Usain Bolt.
April 29 -- The NFL announces that 39 million people in the United States have watched at least one minute of the three-day draft.
May 2 -- Within two and a half hours, the NFL planet shakes. One: Goodell suspends four players for their roles in the bounty scandal, including a one-year ban for middle linebacker Jonathan Vilma ... Two: Junior Seau is pronounced dead in his San Diego home of a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the chest.
Two months. A never-ending, rarely pausing news cycle.
The Vilma ban and Seau suicide weren't the end of it. On Thursday, word leaked that 2011 Defensive Player of the Year Terrell Suggs would miss some or all of the 2012 season with a torn Achilles. On Friday, NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith came out passionately against the suspension of the four players. The union charged the league had not proven its case, and filed two grievances in an attempt to overturn the sanctions.
I don't know what it all means. Maybe this is a freaky year. Surely there won't be a player the status of Peyton Manning getting whacked and then wooed in free agency. Surely there won't be another story with the legs of the bounty scandal. With the NFL becoming so gargantuan, there will be more stories where these came from. I just don't believe we'll ever see two months in an offseason when, day after day, week after week, the NFL obliterates the NBA, the NHL and major league baseball.
Now for the news items of the week:
Junior Seau, gone at 43.
I have a few memories of Seau, including one from Buffalo that I write about in this week's Sports Illustrated, but the most intense occurred in a tunnel, two-plus hours before Super Bowl 29, some 17 years ago. I was a pregame sideline reporter for ABC's Super Bowl coverage that year, and my assignment was to get a couple of questions in to Seau when he got off the Chargers bus. It had been previously arranged that I would do so. When I saw him approach, striding quickly, he had this look in his eye of supreme intensity. He never saw me as I took my place alongside him and said something like: "Hey, Junior, anyone say anything memorable in the team meeting last night?'' He never broke stride, never acknowledged me. "Junior?'' I said. "Junior?'' And he was gone, into the locker room.
I never forgot that intensity. I honestly think he was so zoned in that he never paid attention to anything in his path. But that's the way he played, and his burning focus is one reason he's such a strong candidate for the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2015.
As for why he killed himself with a gunshot to the chest Wednesday, we don't know why. We can theorize, and we will, but until (and if) medical authorities have the chance to analyze Seau's brain to see if it was damaged by years of brute-force football contact, it's going to be just educated guessing and anecdotal evidence.
I believe Seau played his entire career never wanting to give into pain and playing with far more than his share of it -- he missed only nine games due to injury in his first 14 pro seasons. If you asked me which defensive player in the last 20 years inflicted the most punishment on offensive players in the NFL, I'd say it'd be a tie between Junior Seau and Ray Lewis. Former Oakland fullback Jon Ritchie once told me about getting Seau's helmet driven "full force under my jaw, and he hit my like I've never been hit. I couldn't hear anything out of my left ear for a week. I was deaf. And my jaw was so sore, I couldn't eat right.''
That's one unforgettable hit in two decades of them, in college and pro football.
In the last year and a half, the league has been trying to eliminate some of the violent helmet-to-helmet hits in the game. That's a good thing. But those efforts have earned mostly scorn from fans and defensive players. After Seau's death, the tide is turning. Fans (scores of them on Twitter at least) have bleated, "The league's got to do something to improve players' lives after football,'' and said the league has to make sure players can walk away from the game as close to normal human beings mentally as possible.
You can't have it both ways, folks. If you want the explosive, brain-rattling hits to continue unabated, there's a good chance we'll see more players wrecked as they leave football, and years after that. Not saying that's what killed Seau. But I am saying it's a logical avenue to explore, and the league can't wait five or eight or 10 years to have a conclusive study of enough deceased players' brains in order to say it's time to get serious about player safety.
The best thing the NFL can do to honor Seau is to continue to hammer home the protective point that while it may not seem fair in all cases to fine defensive players huge money for hits on defenseless players, it has to be done if the league is going to prove it's serious about making the game safer.
And no more discussion of an 18-game schedule. Please. Simple logic says that's the dumbest idea of the Goodell Era. Unless the league pushes the novel but probably idiotic concept of every player playing a maximum of 16 games in a given season, it's an idea that must go away.
London Fletcher is a poor man's Seau, and he's had an anxious week.
This will be Washington linebacker Fletcher's 15th year in the NFL. By unofficial count, he has more tackles than any player in this century. He plays the game with abandon, the way Seau played it, and has been remarkably durable. Since 1998, he's never missed a game due to injury.
Last night I asked him about what Seau's suicide has meant to him.
"I'm still in disbelief,'' he said. "Still having a hard time with it. I've thought about him every day. And I think about what I'm going to be like at his age, 43, and how I'll be coping with life after football. I keep going over and over it. What am I going to be like several years down the road? I'm definitely concerned with quality of life after football. This makes me a little more scared about it.''
Fletcher didn't know Seau well, but he knows the type of person he was -- driven, brave, not one to ask for help. He's like the rest of us: He doesn't know why Seau killed himself. But he fears it has something to do with the football player's way of minimizing injuries, mentally and physically, and seeking his own way out of problems instead of asking for help. That's why he hopes the league and the players association will mandate counseling sessions for players as they transition out of football. "
You take the decision out of guys' hands,'' Fletcher said, "and that way, maybe some of them will be helped. If players have to go seek counseling on their own, lots of guys won't do that. Men in general, we're wired to hold things inside. It's not manly to be vulnerable and ask for help. For me, now, I can tell you I'm going to seek help if I feel I need it. That's what Junior's death has taught me.''
As of now, Fletcher doesn't notice signs of depression, or memory loss. But he said the Seau death "spooked'' his wife and family. "I had a cousin call me right away and say, 'I'm here if you ever want to talk.' The good thing about this, I think, is that many players around the league are having family members reach out to them, asking how they're doing.'' Now, Fletcher wants help to be mandatory when players walk away. I hope the league and the union consider his idea.
The league must be more transparent on the bounty penalties.
I think it's likely the league has damning evidence on the Saints players. But I also think if the league's going to destroy the character of a heretofore well-respected player, Jonathan Vilma, by putting a scarlet letter on his chest for the rest of his life ("B'' for bounty leader), it needs to come clean with more evidence on Vilma than it's provided thus far.
I don't believe the league has shared nothing, which the union would have us believe, but I also don't believe the league has shared nearly enough evidence to convince anyone that Vilma deserves to be banned for a year. If it's true Vilma offered his teammates $10,000 to knock Kurt Warner and Brett Favre out of a playoff game three seasons ago, let's see the proof. I understand that the league must protect certain whistleblowers in this case, but there has to be some evidence the NFL can share to assuage the doubters that the league really has the goods on the players.
It's good that Mary Jo White, a well-known and highly respected set of legal eyes, combed through the league's evidence in the case and pronounced it conviction worthy. But White was also retained by the league. What do you think she would have concluded had she been retained by the players association?
One other point: I ran into De Smith at the draft, and we talked for a couple of minutes about how the league and the players are fated to always be at odds, at least to some degree. He said ruefully that some players had said to him they thought now that the 10-year labor deal signed last summer meant the two sides would finally be at peace. That's not going to happen. Smith knows it, and now the league knows it.

Summary of Behind His Blue Eyes Summary of Behind His Blue Eyes Reviews for Behind His Blue Eyes An Excerpt from Behind His Blue Eyes
Award-winning author Kaki Warner gives fans a reason to celebrate with the first in a brand-new Western trilogy set in Heartbreak, Colorado, starring an advance man for the railroad—and the woman whose trust (and heart) he longs to win. For fans of Linda Lael Miller and Jodi Thomas...
Hoping to escape his past, Ethan Hardesty left a career as an architect and went to work for the railroad. Only two things impede his desire to transform Heartbreak Creek into a thriving town once again—a vandal bent on stopping the railroad, and the beautiful but hardheaded woman who won't sign over the final right-of-way through the canyon.
Audra Pearsall has good reason for not allowing a train to pass within yards of her home, no matter how persuasive the handsome Mr. Hardesty can be. But when vandalism escalates to murder and fear stalks the canyon, Audra doesn't know who to turn to—until the man she thought was her friend proves to be an enemy, and the man she wouldn't allow herself to trust becomes her reluctant hero…

UPDATE: Arrest Made In Assault On D.C. Drag Queen
Updated Wednesday, 2:40 p.m. PST
An arrest has been made following the assault of drag performer Heidi Glum in Washington, D.C.
"A Gaithersburg woman was arrested yesterday for allegedly assaulting a gay drag performer at a D.C. pizza shop on June 23. The case, one of six recent attacks involving a lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender person, is not being considered a hate crime at this time.
Raymone Harding, 28, was arrested and charged with simple assault Tuesday, the Metropolitan Police Department says."
The investigation is still ongoing according to police.
Original Post
Video of D.C. drag performer Heidi Glüm being harassed and beaten by two women at Manny & Olgas (a popular local pizzeria) has hit the Internet just as Heidi herself deals with backlashes for using slurs on Twitter against her attacker.
The victim says that two girls began making derogatory comments about her makeup and shoes before the situation escalated. "The Latino girl was touching my face telling me I needed to blend my makeup while her African-American friend was trying to bully me for wearing Christian Louboutin heels," Heidi (Miles DeNiro) tells Queerty.
Soon, the two parties were exchanging punches as a group of men encouraged the fight, with one recording it on his cell phone while shouting "World Star," a reference to Worldstarhiphop.com, which is known for publishing amateur fight videos. His title for the video? "Tranny Tells Girl She Has Aids After Bleeding In A Throw Down In Local DC Pizza Restaurant."
DeNiro didn't file a police report immediately after the altercation that left him bloody and bruised because he was "waiting for a video to surface to help support my case." Instead, he took to Twitter to use a slur against his attackers:
The two women seen in the video have also filed their own police reports, according to the MPD.
(Via MetroWeekly; h/t: Queerty)
Why don't you reserve judgement on using slurs until ur hair is ripped out and u and dragged all over the floor. I don't blame her anger.
who are any of you to judge what she said in the MINUTES following her attack? When your walking away and your bloody and your hair is falling out and you've been JUMPED like this THEN you can say what is acceptable language and what isn't !! At that point in HER life she had nothing else BUT words and she was hurt, angry and DRUNK and she has apologized for her mistake. It does NOT mean she is Racist it means she was HURT and lashing out and Not one damned person who has not suffered through this exact thing can confidently say what they would or would not say !! So unless it has happened to YOU then STFU about how she choose to express herself 2 minutes after this happened to HER !!
Judging by her racist remarks she probably asked for it. Gay & racist. How ironic is that! Even still violence isn't the answer but it's really hard to feel sorry for him.
What the fuck is wrong with people that they sit around and watch this happen?!
I agree - we cannot condone her use of racial slurs.
This is wrong on every level. It is all sad. And I cant feel empathy or support for the queen due to her behavior in her name callinShe is just as irresponsible in matters of civility.


text: The creative career of Enzo Catellani is well known, and his lighting is a demonstration of his past ability and his ever evolving creativity. Instead, little has been spoken of his private life and what led him to develop these abilities. Is creativity inborn? On the one hand, yes, and on the other, it is stimulated by situations that surround us. Inactivity does not lead to creation. External activity, but above all the internal tangle of sensations and feelings lead us to create something. And this is his case. Rebellious, obstinate, but often also introverted and fearful of the world, he aimed for a future that was diametrically opposed to his origins, which led him, in a few years, to try and achieve everything that he was able to imagine. Advanced technology combined with forms that are too simple and at times too over-elaborate are the meeting point between what the artist was and what he could have been. It is from this that, in 1989, he established Catellani & Smith, today a leading company in the lighting sector. An unusual company because, as he explains, it is craft industry that was created out of a challenge, today in tune with the most advanced technology. The company's headquarters can be found in a small town situated 5 kilometres from Bergamo in Lombardy. The offices are housed in an old restored mill with a view over the hills, and production takes place in two distinct areas: one along the river and the second in a new warehouse in the industrial area, which consists of large luminous spaces and terraces covered with jasmine plants. The roof features a gravel surface, large Indian vases, a bust of Buddha and a 360° view.

Norman Public Library
Great Decisions Discussion Series Begins February 21
Great Decisions Discussion Series begin again at the Norman Public Library February 21 in Room A/B at the library, 225 N. Webster, at 6:30 p.m. with a video presentation produced by the Foreign Policy Association, followed by the guest speaker and discussion forum. Refreshments are served.
Great Decisions is the flagship educational program of the Foreign Policy Association. The nation-wide outreach program was started in 1954. Today, there are more than 400,000 participants.
The February 21 discussion topic is China Trade, presented by Professor Peter Gries, Ph.D., the Harold J. & Ruth Newman Chair in US-China Issues and Director of the Institute for US-China Issues, University of Oklahoma.
Recent product safety scares have thrown the spotlight on the enormous role China plays in supplying products to the U.S. Questions to be discussed in the first meeting include: Could the large and growing trade imbalance with China have an adverse effect on the U.S. economy? What role does the undervalued Chinese currency play?
The Foreign Policy Association (FPA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to inspiring the American public to learn more about world issues. It provides publications, programs and forums to increase public awareness of matters relating to world policy.
Through the discussion series hosted by the Norman public library, participants can meet, discuss issues, debate and arrive at an informed opinion on each topic. The Norman library will host four discussions during February and March this year.
For each session, participants will read essays on the listed topic and then meet to discuss the topic with a local scholar. At the end of the program, each participant is invited to complete a national opinions survey, the results of which are presented to the White House, the Departments of State and Defense, members of Congress, and the national media.
Participants may register to attend any or all of the Great Decisions programs. To register or for more information, stop by the Adult Information Desk at the library or call 701-2620. An optional Briefing Book which contains all the essays and reading material is available for purchase. The Great Decisions Program is sponsored locally by the Friends of the Norman Public Library.
Other dates, topics, and moderators in the series are: February 28 Defense and Security, presented by Ambassador Edwin Corr, Senior Research Fellow of the Internatioinal Programs Center, University of Oklahoma; March 6 European Union at 50, presented by Professor Mitchell Smith, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Political Science, School of International and Area Studies, University of Oklahoma; March 13 Russia, presented by Professor Paul Goode, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Department of Political Science, University of Oklahoma.
