An alternative instrument for private school competition
Empirical studies estimating the effect of private school competition on student outcomes commonly use the share of Catholics in the local population as an instrument for private school competition. I show that this is not a valid instrument since it is endogenous to private school competition and suggest using instead the local share of Catholics in the population in 1890 and its squared term. These instruments are very strong and are also exogenous to both student achievements and private school competition. I further show that using the current Catholic share as an instrument results in seriously flawed estimates of the effect of private school competition on math test scores and on educational attainment, to the extent that significant positive effects of private school competition on these outcome measures do not hold when the historical Catholic share in 1890 is used as an alternative instrument. The historical Catholic share in 1890 can also be applied to estimate the treatment effect of Catholic schools.Download Info

Today is the day the kids have been excited about, white water rafting. We set out around 9:30am to Wild West Rafting in Gardiner, Montana. It is a 2 hour drive from our campsite. This is right outside the Yellowstone north entrance. Prior to today Liana had asked me if I would be going down the River with them. I told her probably not I wasn't …

Down the east side the park takes on a different character – it's great mountain peaks (you can climb to Mt. Washburn, which tops out at 10,200 feet) and beautiful valleys. This is the place to go to see herds of elk and bison. The mountains were still capped in snow yesterday from the quick storm ...
Yellowstone, Day 2
... of the grand old lodges that my friends from the hike in Canada probably stayed at. It's a little over 100 years old and features a towering four-story atrium at its core, with a massive stone fireplace in the middle. Its constructed of local pine trees to look rustic: they used branches for spindles on stair ways and huge trunks as columns. It's a fun, cool, eccentric space and really evokes the woodsy setting in the park. It's ...
Yellowstone Park, 2.2 million acres of it......
... in hindsight I regret this, as there are some spectacular pools and falls there, but there were hordes of people, and buses and we wanted to get deeper into the park.
We stopped to take photos at a pretty impressive stinky pool which had a boardwalk around it and a large crust of mineral deposits.
Our first two nights were at Madison Junction Campground which borders the river, and offers views over ...

... complete with unfashionable decor. But it still had more room than the Motel 6! We drove down to the corner store to buy some food where I picked up a chocolate bar that said it was "good for smores". I asked the nice lady what that meant - she explained to me it was like chocolate and marshmallow between two cracker biscuits which is roasted over an open fire.
For dinner we ate at a diner mock up which looked more like a general store with stool ...

Latest Nintendo Direct is 3DS focused, looks at Paper Mario, Prof. Layton and more
Teasers for all of the fall's biggest 3DS releases
The Nintendo Direct series of online streams and videos may not be the most ground breaking of features, but it has become one of my favorite events to look forward to. Nintendo always delivers a solid look at games being developed, including trailers and developer commentary, that's not buried in hype and marketing gimmicks. It's just straight up video game goodness. The October 25 Nintendo Direct continues that trend, this time focusing on the fall 3DS lineup.
Today Nintendo gives us sneak peeks at games like Paper Mario: Sticker Star, Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask, and plenty more. In fact, here's a full list of games covered during the video:
- Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask (Oct. 28, trailer)
- Paper Mario: Sticker Star (Nov. 11, trailer)
- Crosswords Plus, Style Savvy: Trendsetters, Art Academy: Lessons for Everyone! (available now)
- New Super Mario Bros. 2 DLC course packs (available now, trailer)
- Scribblenauts Unlimited (Nov. 13)
- Disney Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion (Nov. 18)
- Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why'd You Steal Our Garbage?!! (Nov. 20)
- Super Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 7, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D and Star Fox 64 3D (available now on the eShop)
- eShop: Crashmo (Nov. 22), Fluidity: Spin Cycle (Dec. 27), NightSky (available now), Ikachan (late 2012) (trailer)
- Level-5 eShop: Liberation Maiden (available now), Aero Porter and Crimson Shroud (late 2012) (trailer)
- Animal Crossing: New Leaf (2013, trailer)
- Fire Emblem Awakening (2013, trailer)
- Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (2013)
Sorry for the long list, it's just that Nintendo really packed a massive amount of content into the presentation. Seriously, it's pretty ridiculous how stacked their lineup is for the holidays, and I might even say they have the best exclusive of any platform this fall. Paper Mario: Sticker Star by itself maybe worth that title!
If you'd like to check out the full Nintendo Direct video, I've got it embedded below. It's a good time to be a 3DS owner.
Sections: Nintendo Consoles, Handheld Games
I'm also excited for the new Luigi's Mansion and Animal Crossing, although I'm not sure how I'm going to fit even more games into my budget after the holidays. we'll see.

Pat McGeehan on Budget & Economy | |
Within 24 hours of this debt resolution sailing through the Congress, over $350 billion were borrowed--and the government's debt now officially stands well over $17 trillion. This is to say nothing of the untold trillions of dollars in unfunded liabilities the American taxpayer is expected to cover well into the future. As staggering as these numbers may be, very few in Washington DC understand the magnitude of this national dilemma.
This predicament grows even more dangerous [because the] deficit is no longer coming from real "borrowed" money. Very few foreigners are loaning money to the American government now; the largest buyer of American debt has now become the Federal Reserve.
When the Fed steps in as the "lender of last resort", and buys US government debt, new dollars are being created out of thin air. In essence, the only thing the Fed does have at its disposal is the printing-press, and this has become the new norm in Washington.
Turning to the printing-press has real consequences for the average American: massive devaluation of the dollar. As more dollars are printed-up by the Federal Reserve, the average American will find that their purchasing power will go down. This can already be seen--at the grocery store or the gas pump. In a way, this represents a tax. The inflation tax
Bailouts take money from successful business and provides their profits to their inefficient competitors. It is morally and economically wrong in a free-market system.
I never would have voted for the bank bailouts, AIG bailouts, or auto bailouts, as they are unconstitutional, and directly opposed to free-market values.
I will oppose any and all federal bailouts, and instead will fight to balance the budget, to pay down the National Debt and restore the value of the Dollar. It is time our government starts promoting responsibility and stop rewarding failure.

Budget-minded graphics cards aren't trotted out with a lot of fanfare, and the ATI Radeon 9200 is a typical bare-bones example. The card comes with a driver CD, an installation manual, and little else. The card features VGA, composite, and S-Video outputs. Although it supports simultaneous dual displays, the second is destined to be a TV and not a second CRT. Other budget cards, such as the PNY Verto GeForce FX 5200 AGP, support simultaneous CRTs.
The Radeon 9200 uses 128MB of 200MHz DDR SDRAM and is powered by a 250MHz Radeon 9200 GPU. Although its specs and price are modest in stature, the Radeon 9200 is still a full-height card. Because the memory is positioned along the back end of the card, it can't utilize a half-height design, which will keep it from populating some small-form-factor desktops. It is possible that Radeon 9200-based solutions from other manufacturers might come in a half-height format, perhaps populated by only 64MB of memory.
Radeon 9200 GPU-based cards are starting to become available from other vendors, including Gigabyte and Power Color. In the coming weeks, a slightly speedier version, the Radeon 9200 Pro, is due out from ATI and other manufacturers, such as Hightech Information Systems. ATI has yet to publicly release the technical specifications of the Radeon 9200 Pro.
In the not-so-distant past, the level of performance you could expect from a value graphics card was minimal at best. The current generation of value cards, on the other hand, delivers 3D graphics performance worth noting. Obviously, these cards donÂ't provide the kind of performance a game enthusiast would demand, yet they donÂ't cost anywhere near as much as high-end cards do, either.
The Radeon 9200 represents ATIÂ's current-generation entry-level graphics card. Cards based on NvidiaÂ's GeForce FX 5200 GPU, such as the PNY Verto GeForce FX 5200 AGP. Unlike the GeForce FX 5200, the Radeon 9200 does not have full DX9 hardware support. This doesnÂ't mean that the Radeon 9200 wonÂ't play DX9 games when they eventually come out; rather, the 9200 wonÂ't support some of the DX9-specific features that the new games use.
The Radeon 9200 does not support 4X antialiasing (AA) at resolutions higher than 1,280x1,024, which is a limitation weÂ'd chalk up to the card being in the value category if not for the fact that the GeForce FX 5200 does support this feature at high resolutions. ItÂ's not as dire as it might seem: on our tests, at resolutions above 1,024x768 with advanced features enabled, the Radeon 9200Â's performance dropped to frame rates too low for acceptable playback, but we experienced the same issue with the GeForce FX 5200. If you want to use the Radeon 9200Â's image-quality-enhancing AA and anisotropic filtering (AF) features, we recommend using a resolution of 800x600 to abate the performance hit that the advanced features sets enact at higher resolutions.
On CNET LabsÂ' 3DMark03 and Unreal Tournament 2003 tests, the GeForce FX 5200 showed a significant performance edge over the Radeon 9200 at a resolution of 1,024x768. The advantage increased even more when advanced feature sets were enabled--on the Unreal tests with 4X AA and 4X AF enabled, the GeForce FX 5200 was roughly twice as fast as the Radeon 9200. Performance varies with the application, however, as we saw a much tighter race with our Splinter Cell tests: the Radeon 9200 put out a slightly better showing when we used the testÂ's medium-quality settings.
Futuremark's 3DMark03 (Longer bars indicate better performance)
Unreal Tournament 2003 test: Flyby-Antalus (in fps) (Longer bars indicate better performance)
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell test (in fps) (Longer bars indicate better performance)
Find out more about how we test graphics cards.
ATI backs the Radeon 9200 with a three-year limited warranty. If you need to return the card to ATI for repair or replacement, you can fill out the difficult to locate Warranty Service Request on ATI's Web site. Alternatively, you can call ATI's toll number for the first 30 days following online registration; after the first 30 days, telephone support is available via a 900-number for $1.25 per minute. ATI's Web site includes driver downloads, e-mail support, user guides, installation tips, technical issues, and FAQs.

Junior Scholars Research Grants
Center for Christian-Jewish Learning
The Center for Christian-Jewish Learning Junior Scholars Research Grants support Boston College junior scholars (defined as undergraduate and graduate students) pursuing research that is of value to the field of Christian-Jewish relations. Recipients must engage in scholarship under the guidance of a faculty member.
Grants may support recipients' production of articles, book sections or chapters, conference presentations, digital materials, translations, or other scholarly resources.
Research grants are one-time awards of $1,000. Up to five research grants are awarded each academic year and each summer.
Please click here for application details and instructions.
Rosemary Chandler, a junior from the College of A&S and a recipient of a Junior Scholars Research Grant, presented her research on the portrayal of Judaism and the Old Testament in Christian artwork dating from the Middle Ages through the Renaissance as part of the BC Talks scholarship forum.
2013 Summer Winners
Peter Cajka, Boston College Ph.D. History Student
Cajka wrote a research paper focused on the role Christian-Jewish relations played in the post-World War II reconstruction of conscience. His research explains "why the idea of conscience as a dignified force that obeyed external legal codes lost out to an interpretation of the conscience in the late 1960s as an internal guide individuals followed only after prolonged discernment." His research shows that Christian and Jewish thinkers of the time were "recasting religion and morality in America."
Paper available here.
2012 Summer Winners
James Daryn Henry, Boston College Ph.D. Theology Student
Henry developed a publishable article and public presentation based on a constructive development from the Christian perspective of the theology of Israel, particularly through engagement with the work of the contemporary theologian Robert Jenson. He states, "The fundamental problem with which this study wrestles is: how can the Christian Community, and the intellectual reflection on its life--theology--understand itself in relation to the continuing Jewish Community in a way that both promotes 'mutually enriching relationships' in their self-understanding together as People of God, and that remains faithful to the distinctiveness of each confession?"
Article available here.
Cristina Richie, Boston College Th.M. Student and entering Ph.D. Theology Student
Richie created resources for classroom or church lessons on Jewish-Christian bioethics that can be adopted and adapted for colleges and high schools, churches, and adult educational opportunities--including religion, bioethics, ethics, and health courses. She explains, "Recent Jewish-Christian ecumenical endeavors of collaboration have by and large sought to establish theologically consonant ground in order to facilitate peaceful dialogue and a fruitful alliance. In inter-religious dialogue, bioethics has been in the background as national and international political policies and reconciliation from the atrocities of World War II take the foreground."

2011-2012 Academic Year Winners
Susan Legere, Ph.D. (2012, Boston College, Sociology)
Legere presented her dissertation Narratives of Injustice: Measuring the Impact of Witness Testimony in the Classroom at "The Future of Holocaust Testimonies," an international conference and workshop in Akko, Israel. Her research generates "much-needed empirical data on survivor testimony and its ability to shape attitudes, broaden world view, and possibly influence behavior."
Matthew Mohorovich, Boston College Philosophy Ph.D. Student
Mohorovich traveled to Sarajevo and interviewed members of the Jewish community who were present during the siege of Sarajevo in the 1990s and played an active role in relief efforts. He explains that when we look at Bosnia's history, "we do not see the sort of history we might expect--one marked and stained by clashes, but instead see one that has been characterized by centuries of inter-religious solidarity, perseverance, and openness to 'the other'--the stranger,' 'the foreigner.'"
Iulia Padeanu, Boston College Senior
Padeanu traveled to Romania to interview and record the testimonies of Romanians, both Jewish and Christians, of their experience in the Holocaust. She explains, "Much of the history written during the Communist era ignored the anti-Semitic policies of WWII," and so the "importance of living memory cannot be overestimated. Soon, students of history will not be able to get the opportunity to speak to those that were alive during WWII." She presented her research on the Romanian Holocaust at the BC Talks lecture series.
Article available here.
Susan Legere, Ph.D., ninth from the left in the photograph above, presented her dissertation research at "The Future of Holocaust Testimonies" conference in Akko, Israel.
Steven Candido, Boston College Senior
Candido traveled to Berlin to conduct research for his history thesis "Youth is Not an Excuse: A Study of Young German Resisters in Nazi Germany." His thesis focuses on the non-Jewish youth resisters during the Holocaust. He explains, "It is a vastly understudied field that deserves more research and recognition, especially in the quest for improving Jewish-Christian relations."
Abstract. Thesis Cover Page. Final Thesis.
Rosemary Chandler, Boston College Junior
Chandler will develop a publishable article "The Downfall of Synagoga: A Study of the Dynamic Allegory in Italian Renaissance Art." She will combine her interests in European artwork and Jewish studies to research a "lesser studied subject of Italian Renaissance art: Judaism and the 'Jewish' Old Testament, and what depictions of this subject matter reveal about Christian attitudes towards Judaism and the position of Jews in Italian society."
Caitlyn Duehren, Boston College M.T.S. Student
Duehren developed an article that addresses a gap in feminist Jewish-Christian theology. Her research focuses on the place of women in Second Temple Period Judaism, recovering movements or tendencies within Judaism that were "liberative in nature, upon which Jesus, the Jew, likely drew." Duehren explains that exploring this is "an attempt to move beyond the dualistic Jesus verses Judaism, which is denigrating to both Judaism and Jesus." She states, "I hope to bring together Christian and Jewish feminist theology and eradicate the inauthentic proclivity towards anti-Judaism often found in Christian feminism."
Article available here.
Nicholas Wagner, Boston College M.T.S. Student
Wagner developed a historical and literary analysis of Pauline texts as well as other relevant primary sources. His article aims at "exploring both Paul's Hellenism and how, if at all, it influenced anti-Judaism for early Christ-believers." He intends his research "to provide a fuller understanding of the historical realities facing Jews and Christ-believers in the first century" as well as "aid contemporary scholarship in demystifying Paul's anti-Jewishness."
Article available here.
Matthew Kruger, Boston College Theology Ph.D. Student
Kruger developed an article, "Fear, Love, and the Law: The Spiritual Nature of Judaism and Christianity in Aquinas and Bonaventure." Kruger hopes to address the dearth of research on the subject, stating "Filling in this void is essential to filling out the picture of the medieval Christian perspective towards the Jewish religion."
Article available here.
Jeffrey C. Witt, Boston College Philosophy Ph.D. Candidate
Witt designed a detailed course syllabus on "Jewish and Christian Medieval Approaches to Philosophy of Religion." He explains, "There are few resources for how to approach medieval Jewish-Christian relations and intellectual debates from the perspective of a mainstream philosophy course... I hope to provide other philosophers with an example of how they might incorporate both Christian and Jewish sources in their courses in a more extensive way."
Syllabus available here.

Tweetie – Quick and Easy Twitter Client for the Mac
Last year, I got into the MacHeist bundle and picked up Twitteriffic along the way. Almost instantly, it pissed me off. The interface was annoying, hearing the little tweet reminder got irritating, and I hated how new windows would pop up behind others. I ended up taking it off my dock and forgetting about it.

TORONTO, ON (NEWS1130) - The watchdog that keeps an eye on the national police force has found that two people arrested during the G20 summit in Toronto in 2010 were plain-clothesed police officers.
Monday, May 14, 2012
Provocation and/or Police State?
There are only two options: Either the two undercover officers arrested at the G20 were engaging in illegal behaviour - they were provocateurs in other words - or this is an admission that you didn't have to break the law to be chained and jailed, just protest. Either one condemns the entire police operation:
Civil Rights,
Police State,

What names do you prefer the full name instead of the nickname for ?
Mine are : Zachary Nicholas Harrison Michael Alexander Jacob Gabrielle |
Amelia Charlotte Elizabeth Samantha Christopher Nicholas Thomas Zachariah |
Rebecca Alexander Harrison (although Harry is pretty cute!) James Isabelle Penelope |
I tend to like nicknames with pretty much any name.. But one that I don't, is Mikayla.. I don't like "Mickey" or "Kay".. But, yeah..
I don't like nicknames at all. I mean I like the name...I just don't like that it's short for something. I prefer naming the kid what you'll be calling it. For example I like Abigail...and I like Abbie...but would prefer the kid to just be named Abbie.

Legal market overview
Iceland's market remains preoccupied with the aftermath of the 2008 financial crash, and one recent trend has been for former banks to pursue rescission claims against creditors. The economy has been showing signs of improvement, however, since Iceland's completion of the IMF's three-year rescue programme in August 2011. Supermarket chain Hagar (of the defunct Baugur group) became the first company to be listed on Iceland's stock exchange since 2008, and Arion Bank's covered bonds programme in 2012 signalled the country's tentative re-entry into international capital markets. Gross domestic product has increased modestly and unemployment is down. Global companies are also taking an interest in the country's natural resources as a source of green energy, and the British and Icelandic governments entered into tentative discussions on the subject in May 2012. Elsewhere, the 2010 Supreme Court ruling that foreign currency-linked loans were illegal precipitated another wave of litigation, which is ongoing.
LOGOS legal services and Lex Law Offices remain ahead of their competitors, with LOGOS legal services leading in terms of size and international presence. Niche practice BBA // Legal matches both firms in high-level corporate and banking transactions, and ADVEL Attorneys at Law's full-service practice is closing the gap in a number of practice areas. Niche firms Jonsson & Hall and Réttur – Adalsteinsson & Partners are highly regarded for dispute resolution, and IP boutique Arnason Faktor remains at the top of its field.

For those people looking at investing in the property market, population growth is often one of the key indicators to monitor. A growing population indicates an increasing level of demand for housing, with the most attractive areas for investment being those areas where the population growth is high and the level of housing supply is limited. Based on the recent ABS data on population growth, Australia's annual population growth rate slowed to 1.6% for the year ending September 2010. Read More »

Y'know, whenever I'm homesick, I know where to come. That must have been a lovely trip and I do like the shot of the single tree (which is what my chums in Texas called Lone Pine in my misspent youth). Listening to the gulls near Mono Lake is certainly a worthwhile way to spend one's time. Have you seen the tee-shirt with the life cycles of the various critters associated with the lake?

The song Askim Askim. Lyrics and Composition by Melis Bilen, Music by Steve C.
African elephants are the largest land animals on Earth. They are slightly larger than their Asian cousins and can be identified by their larger ears that look somewhat like the continent of Africa. (Asian elephants have smaller, rounded ears.)
Elephant ears radiate heat to help keep these large animals cool, but sometimes the African heat is too much. Elephants are fond of water and enjoy showering by sucking water into their trunks and spraying it all over themselves. Afterwards, they often spray their skin with a protective coating of dust.
An elephant's trunk is actually a long nose used for smelling, breathing, trumpeting, drinking, and also for grabbing things—especially a potential meal. The trunk alone contains about 100,000 different muscles. African elephants have two fingerlike features on the end of their trunk that they can use to grab small items. (Asian elephants have one.)
Both male and female African elephants have tusks they use to dig for food and water and strip bark from trees. Males use the tusks to battle one another, but the ivory has also attracted violence of a far more dangerous sort.
Because ivory is so valuable to some humans, many elephants have been killed for their tusks. This trade is illegal today, but it has not been completely eliminated, and some African elephant populations remain endangered.
Elephants eat roots, grasses, fruit, and bark, and they eat a lot of these things. An adult elephant can consume up to 300 pounds (136 kilograms) of food in a single day.
These hungry animals do not sleep much, and they roam over great distances while foraging for the large quantities of food that they require to sustain their massive bodies.
Female elephants (cows) live in family herds with their young, but adult males (bulls) tend to roam on their own.
Having a baby elephant is a serious commitment. Elephants have a longer pregnancy than any other mammal—almost 22 months. Cows usually give birth to one calf every two to four years. At birth, elephants already weigh some 200 pounds (91 kilograms) and stand about 3 feet (1 meter) tall.

Save our River! Onward to Sugarland!
There is so much going on here my head is spinning. We the citizens along the St. Lucie and Caloosahatchee Estuaries have stood up and spoken with a very loud voice.
This was suppose to be the summer of lazy kayaking, reading carl hiasson's "Bad monkey" on the beach while floating in the beautiful water. Work is slow and its time to recharge.
Can't do that now. The water is toxic with cyanobacteria and now we have dengue fever in our hood. Could I have some fries with that? Let me bring it home. Marty Baum, our riverkeeper who over 2,000 of you watched his video -has dengue fever.
I live in ground 0. The other day they were suppose to spray at 4:30 in the morning and when i went out with my pets at 7am I had mosquito spraying airplanes dive bombing my house. Even the possum that lives in yard came out of hiding to see what was going on.
I live on the corner of the St Lucie River and Indian River Lagoon. I am surrounded by Toxic Algae in the water, There's dengue fever and i'm getting sprayed with mosquito goo. What do you do? You keep on fighting - we're taking this fight to dc! We, the collective we!
So instead of kayaking this summer I have been going to protests with thousands of people and spending my spare time talking about fertilizers and septic tanks which are an issue along the entire indian river lagoon. But please don't get sidetracked. This travesty that we are dealing with is a direct result of the discharges from Lake Okeechobee into the two estuaries.
We had a huge meeting with south florida water management
Last week senator joe negron had a nine hour senate select meeting and told us not to talk unless we had solutions - and solutions we had.
There is no parties in our conversation- its all about what we can do to make this better and so it will never happen again.
I can't say enough about my community where I live. I have never ever in my life been a part of something as amazing. we could have done without this tragedy. BUt the outpouring of people willing to put their egos aside and effect change is truly the most inspiring thing I have ever been involved with and I treasure my treasure coast friends and neighbors.
we're all so busy something had to make a Facebook page to list all our events that are upcoming. We are getting DEP alerts and discussing them. This is what democracy looks like. This is an extraordinary community of people.
You can read all about it on our Facebook Page River of LIght where we have been posting information since last year. Read about learn about it. Without estuaries there are no fish. For those of you who say meh about the environment lets talk economy and my friends having to close their business's because ours just tanked. We were doing great up here. Last winter was phenomenal. We were in recovery and buzzing along.
read all about it
This is not my video so i'm just putting a link of Bobby Billie speaking at the senate meeting. "The newcomers came to our land and totally destroyed it" "we need to wake up because we are over the edge"
and everyone needs to read this and look and see if your representative voted for this and ask them why
This Sunday is the Sugarland Rally
"The Sugarland Rally will unite the east and west coasts of Florida in a peaceful, historic demonstration to speak out against the pollution of our estuaries from Lake Okeechobee discharges. We support both immediate and long-term solutions, but ecosystems and communities along the St. Lucie and Caloosahatchee Estuaries are in crisis. We cannot afford to wait for ecological and economic collapse. We urge all stakeholders--especially local, state and federal governments--to act immediately."

FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. --- On Monday night, April 1, at the 37th annual Carbonell Awards, when the statuettes were all handed out, the musical numbers had concluded and the audience had left Broward Center for the Performing Arts to attend the after-party, two things could not be denied: South Florida is home to a rich, vibrant theatrical community packed with talent; and it was a good night to be the Maltz Jupiter Theatre.
Although the nominations were spread among 18 of South Florida theaters, three theaters dominated Monday night's ceremony. Maltz Jupiter Theatre was honored with nine awards, winning every musical category, a feat that hasn't happened in 34 years, when the Miami Beach Theatre of the Performing Arts swept the musical categories at the third annual Carbonell Awards. The awards for Maltz Jupiter Theatre were spread across three productions: The Music Man took honors for Best Musical, Best Actor/Musical, Matt Loehr; Musical Direction, Anne Shuttleworth; Choreography, Shea Sullivan; and Costume Design, Jose M. Rivera. Marcia Milgrom Dodge won Best Director for Hello Dolly!, a production that also saw wins for Best Actress/Musical, Vicki Lewis; and Best Supporting Actor/Musical, Matt Loehr. Angie Radosh won the Best Supporting Actress/Musical award for Cabaret.
The awards in the play categories were divided between GableStage in Coral Gables and Zoetic Stage in Miami. GableStage won four awards: Best Production of a Play for the drama Ruined; Best Director, Joseph Adler; Best Actress, Lela Elam; and Best Supporting Actor, Robert Strain, all for their work in Ruined. Zoetic Stage won three awards: Best Actor, Tom Wahl in I Am My Own Wife; Best Supporting Actress, Elena Maria Garcia, for Moscow; and Best New Work, Moscow, by Michael McKeever.
Four other theaters were honored with one award each. Broward Stage Door Theatre in Coral Springs won the Best Ensemble award for Rumors. Matt Corey won Best Sound for The Birds at Mosaic Theatre in Plantation. Margaret M. Ledford won Best Lighting for The Turn of the Screw at Naked Stage in Miami. And Michael Amico won Best Scenic Design for Talley's Folly at Palm Beach Dramaworks in West Palm Beach.
Palm Beach County theaters earned 10 awards, followed by Miami-Dade theaters with 8 awards and Broward County theaters with 2 awards. (A full listing of the award winners follows.)
Along with honoring excellence in theater, a highlight of the annual Carbonell Awards ceremony is recognizing those who have made significant contributions to the arts.
The prestigious George Abbott Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Arts, awarded to an individual (or team) who has contributed significantly to the artistic and cultural development of the region, was presented to Mario Ernesto Sanchez, founder and Producing Artistic Director of Teatro Avante and the International Hispanic Theatre Festival of Miami. Sanchez has worked with a passion to preserve, promote and develop Hispanic theater across the Americas with a major impact locally and internationally since founding Teatro Avante in 1979.
The Ruth Foreman Award, which recognizes significant contributions to South Florida theater development by an individual or group, was awarded to Actors' Equity Association, the union that represents professional stage actors and stage managers across the U.S. Working to advance, promote and foster the art of live theatre as an essential component of society, Actors' Equity was honored in recognition of 100 years representing professional American theater on the occasion of their centennial.
The Carbonell Awards also awarded $1,000 scholarships to four South Florida students pursuing careers in theater or journalism: Sammi-Jack Martincak (Miami Dade County) who attends of New World School of the Arts; Christian Frost (Broward County) who attends J.P. Taravella High School; Vanessa Contreras (Palm Beach County) who attends John L. Leonard High School; and Jade Zaroff (Palm Beach County) who attends West Boca Community High School.

Each season volunteer panelists and judges choose nominees and recipients from hundreds of shows produced on our area stages. The Carbonell Awards also celebrate the accomplishments of our artistic leaders by presenting 'Special Awards' and support the next generation of artists and journalists by awarding scholarships. Along with New York's Drama Desk and Chicago's Joseph Jefferson Awards, the Carbonell Awards are among the nation's senior regional arts awards and predate others, including Washington, D.C.'s Helen Hayes Awards. The Carbonell Awards are named after Manuel Carbonell, an internationally-renowned sculptor, who designed the original solid bronze and marble award in 1976, the signature trophy that is given to Carbonell Award winners.
Below is a complete list of this year's Carbonell Award winners, followed by a breakdown of the awards by county, theater and production.
