Sharing the World through Fulbright
Elizabeth Reid (MAIPS '11) talks about the value of sharing experiences from her Fulbright Fellowship in Jordan.
May 2, 2012
Rhiannon Marie Bramer (IEP '12), a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, was awarded a Boren Scholarship to spend the 2010-2011 academic year in Mongolia studying the country's language and culture.
Rhiannon's fellowship year focused on studying Mongolian language at the National University of Mongolia's School of Mongolian Language and Culture. In addition to language studies, Rhiannon worked on her own research project evaluating the environmental aspects of Mongolia's Minerals Law.
Rhiannon says, "The Boren Fellowship was the greatest experience for me professionally. I'm a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps, and before the Boren I didn't have any professional experience in environmental policy. My time in Mongolia immersed me in the policy world and it is where I adopted responsible mining as my professional focus. The fellowship has opened up doors I didn't even know existed."
Rhiannon expresses that the Monterey Institute played a critical role in her preparation for this adventure, as she was able to build her foundation of international environmental policy in the classroom and then directly apply it in the real world. She explains, "I learned how to ask better questions in order to best observe and analyze Mongolian culture and the environmental policy environment."
Since returning from her fellowship, Rhiannon received another Title VIII grant, sponsored by the State Department language, to pursue more advanced Mongolian language studies. She plans to return to Mongolia during the summer of 2012.

Love hot dogs? Speed over to Garage Dogs in Thousand Oaks
Put the brakes on hunger at Garage Dogs
Location: 2626 E. Thousand Oaks Blvd., Thousand Oaks. 497-2013; garagedogsto.com.
Hours: 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sundays.
Impressions: Tiny order-at-the-counter spot with "garage" gear decor; friendly, efficient service; lots of dogs and such, plus burgers.
What's hot: Continental (two dogs, bacon, chili, cheddar cheese, onions, mustard and Frito chips in a grilled tortilla); Mustang (grilled dog with homemade Garage Sauce); avocado bacon burger; root-beer float
2 for lunch or dinner
Starters: Onion rings ($3.95) + Frito pie ($3.95)
Main items: Grilled Wisconsin beer brat ($5.50) + two Gourmet Garage Dogs (the Mustang, $4.95, and the Continental, $7.25) + avocado bacon burger ($5.95)
Dessert: Root beer float ($2.95)
Tab for two: $10-$20
Ron Leavitt must have been in super-drive when he named the items on his Garage Dogs menu. The Thousand Oaks eatery has a few recognizable items, like Polish sausage and Wisconsin beer brat, but his list of Gourmet Garage Dogs goes wild, with Camaro, GTO, Corvette, Gran Torino, Trans Am, Cobra, Mustang, Chevelle, Eldorado, Charger and Continental options.
And of course, the opening page of his paper menu announces that Garage Dogs is where "everyone comes to get their hunger serviced." We decided to go along for the ride.
Our selections ranged all over the, uh, road, with a grilled Wisconsin beer brat ($5.50), a Mustang ($4.95), a Continental ($7.95) and, for a change of pace, an avocado bacon burger ($5.95).
We started with onion rings ($3.95) and a Frito pie ($3.95). The rings were deemed middle of the road, but the Frito pie — with a base of homemade chili with beans, plus layers of Frito chips, cheddar cheese and diced onions — got us nicely into gear. The chili, which comes into play with multiple items, is a plus, with good taste and texture.
Our sandwich choices veered all over the place, but were all reasonably good. The Wisconsin beer brat, with our choice of mustard and sweet relish under the "No Charge Parts" section, was a reasonable representative of that style of dog. The Mustang was a bit more hopped up thanks to the restaurant's sweet-and-spicy Garage Sauce.
The Continental roared away with the prize, at least in size and complexity, with its two all-beef dogs, chopped bacon, chili, cheddar cheese, onions, mustard and Frito chips, all wrapped in a large grilled flour tortilla. It really was good, if overwhelming in size and challenging to eat. Served cut in half, it was impossible to lift without spilling a lot of the goodies onto the cardboard container in which it was served. I decided it had to be cut into smaller pieces with my knife and fork, but unfortunately the lightweight plastic pair was too flimsy to do the deed. For most other items, this would not be a problem, as one or the other or both utensils might not be needed to eat what is essentially hand-food. But I struggled with the Continental, even while acknowledging it was worth the challenge for those who relish the ingredients.
The avocado bacon burger also was hard to handle, but was easy to cut in half. The avocado, bacon, lettuce, tomato, Jack cheese and caramelized onions still dripped from my friend's hands, but it was worth the struggle.
While the menu says, "Ask about our Garage Treats," which we assumed was an invitation to desserts, Leavitt, who was manning the counter, said the reference was to the root-beer floats, which certainly can soothe any sweet tooth with plenty of ice cream and fizzy soda.
Garage Dogs is narrow and long, almost like the dogs themselves. Although we arrived late into the lunch hour, hoping to miss the crowds, the crush was still there, with families and kids and macho men sharing the space. The line moved quickly and the wait for orders to be filled was not long.
Tables are small, even for two. There is a high counter near the entry and, we discovered as we left from the back entrance toward the parking lot, a few patio tables. We almost didn't get a table, so it's a good idea to time your visit, unless of course you plan to do takeout.
Gourmet Garage Dogs come in two sizes, the regular that we chose and the foot-long version. Ordering the regular all-beef, natural-casing dogs, you can "build your own," selecting the hot dogs steamed or charred, plus condiments. There are bacon-wrapped dogs, turkey dogs and veggie dogs, even a Jersey Ripper deep-fried dog. The burgers all have relatively recognizable names, though there is the Prius Veggie Burger on a whole wheat bun, a nod to the mod. And the kids have their own meals, listed under The Buggy.

Erene, Italian born, moved to New York City in March 2000 when she realized that her songwriting was influenced by American music as much as by Italian songwriters. Her desire to learn from great American musicians drove her to choose New York City as her new home. Erene felt immediately at ease in the City and started performing right away in cafes of the Lower East Side. The warm and enthusiastic reaction of the audience was a sign that she was in the right place.
Back in Italy she started studying classical guitar and piano at a very young age, as a teenager she also began training as a jazz vocalist at "Centro Jazz" in Turin and at "Civici Corsi di Jazz" in Milan. In 1996 she discovered the "Functional Method of the Voice" by Gisela Rohmert. Erene has been studying the method in Germany and Italy ever since.
In 1997 Erene traveled to San Francisco to produce a demo with virtuoso guitarist Peppino D'Agostino, here she also had the chance to meet producer Corrado Rustici. At this time she started developing the idea to one day live in the US.
Erene won the Greenage Festival (national music competition) in Turin, Italy, in 2002 and in that occasion she opened for the world wide known percussionist Trilok Gurtu.
The Italian singer and songwriter now performs regularly in clubs such as The Living Room, Bitter End, Makor, Rockwood Music Hall, and travels to Austin, TX, several times a year to perform at Saxon Pub, Threadgill's, and Momo's among other local clubs. Austin, the so called "capital of the live music" welcomed Erene with love and great enthusiasm as well, fascinated by her enchanting voice, solid guitar playing and sophisticated songwriting.

Community college are adding classes, support services and special centers to welcome military veterans, reports Community College Times. The U.S. Education Department's Veterans Upward Bound program provides funding.
The veterans' center at Citrus College in California was designed to look like a USO club.
With social isolation being one of the biggest issues facing combat veterans, the college said that the center provides a relaxing place for them to receive the latest veteran benefits information, to coordinate with the veterans' network club and to attend workshops.
Citrus offers a Boots to Books course to help vets with interpersonal skills and stress management.
Clackamas Community College in Oregon has opened a Veterans Education and Training Center, which provides advice on benefits, offers workshops on education, training and business and serves as a networking and study center. A veterans' club meets at the center for fellowship and support.
Collin College in Texas offers political science, history, psychology and speech classes designed for veterans.
In political science, for example, students discuss veteran's benefits and in psychology a speaker discusses post-traumatic stress disorder.
Danville Area Community College in Illinois hosted an orientation to introduce veterans to the available employment, education, health and support services.
Veterans participating in Upward Bound often are at-risk students: 72 percent are both low-income and first-generation college students, 67 percent are unemployed and 39 percent have a disability.

As optimism runs high for the Bills post draft, the speculation on the direction and focus of the Bills offense is beginning to crystallize in our minds. At first glance it would seem that with the influx of athletes at the WR position and drafting a big armed QB, that this offense is starting to resemble the pass happy, Mike Martz led, Greatest Show on Turf, or the current Saints squad. But based on Syracuse's overall play selection last year, and the presence of one of the deepest backfields in football, I hope that will not be the case.
The biggest indicator to me that Buffalo will lean more on the running game is that while at Syracuse, the Marrone/Hackett led offense passed the ball 46%, 51.3%, 44.8, and 45.7% of the time respectively each of the last 4 years. Though the NFL is not college, I like seeing that type of ball distribution over an extended period of time. Buffalo has only made the playoffs one time in their history when more than 52% of the called offensive plays were passes. That was in 1965 when the team passed on 56% of their offensive plays in the old AFL. Only one time in Buffalo team history has the team made the playoffs averaging fewer than 30 rushing attempts per game. This was also in 1965 at 28 carries per game. During the current playoff drought, only once has Buffalo averaged over 30 attempts per game, 30.2 in 2004, which was their best record during the drought. 30 carries per game does not guarantee the playoffs, but less than 30 virtually guarantees you won't make it historically in Buffalo. So remove the 1965 anomaly and future Buffalo teams need to run the ball at least 30 times per game, and not exceed 52/48 split for pass vs run plays to make the playoffs. This begs a few questions fellow Rumblers:
1.Do these metrics still apply in the modern NFL? Buffalo has been absent from the playoffs so long, the game has changed pretty significantly during that time.
2.Will Hackett and Marrone continue to run more than pass as was the case at Syracuse?
3. At some point in the near future can the current available talent on this team be good enough to run first and then capitalize with an aggressive deep passing attack that can lead to some playoff appearances?
I think these metrics do still apply, that Hackett and Marrone will run more than pass, and I don't know yet, are my short answers to those questions, but I would love to see what everyone else thinks in the comments section.

I realize that "Texas Fight" is just "Taps," just played really fast..... But how can Foxsports.com not rank it in the top 25 School fight songs?????
Teams like LSU, Flordia, Miss St, and Ball State are on the list... but we are not.
P.S. Aggies War Hymn is number 5.
This may be the first time I've ever seen the Aggies higher on a list than The University of Texas.....
Why is it so cold, and why are there demons outside my window?
I must add, The author of this article did make some funny remarks about a cultish A&M. so my total respect for him is not lost.

This saturday will be my first Vols game. I have been wanting to go to a game since the first time I ever visited the state back in the late 90's. I saw so much orange, I had to see what the fuss was. Granted, today UT is not what it was back then (a lot less orange out too). I am still excited to go though. I'm not really a Vols fan, except baseball. I do have to keep up with them so I can trash talk to the inlaws. I believe most people will be more worried about the next head coach than the actual game. Which is sad, because it's senior day.
I was wondering if you guys could give me some tips. Where would be a good place to park? Any cool pregame festivities? How many people do you think will show up for the game? I know that Leyland holds +100k, no way it gets that high saturday. Can't wait to hear Rocky Top in person. Are there any other chants the crowd does? What's the fastest way out of town? I'm kidding, I already know that. Haha.
I'm hoping for a Vols win, for personal reasons. UT wins, I will probably get invited to other games. After all, I have never seen them lose in person. If they lose, I'll probably never see another game in person (sports fans are very superstitious). At last I would see some history if they lose. Bad history (0-8 in SEC), but still history.

South Africa cantered to a 10-wicket win over Zimbabwe, knocking them out of the World Twenty20 Championship, in a Group C encounter at the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium here Thursday.
After Jacques Kallis' four wickets had restricted Zimbabwe to 93 for eight, openers Richard Levi (50 not out) and Hashim Amla (32 not out) made light work of the target, reaching with 44 balls to spare.
Zimbabwe with this loss have lost 14 matches in a row in T20 internationals.
South Africa, who put Zimbabwe into bat, had an upper hand from the start. Zimbabwe lost three early wickets and failed to recover hence.
A great opening spell by the Morkel brothers Morne and Albie put Zimbabwe on the back foot. Stuart Matsikenyeri (11) and Craig Ervine, who top scored with 37 off 40 balls, tried to get the innings back on track but Kallis ended the resurrection work pre-maturely.
With wickets tumbling all around him, Ervine dug deep and batted conservatively. Dale Steyn, who took a sole wicket, was the most economical bowler giving away just nine runs in his four overs.
With a meager target in front of them, South Africa took their time and didn't take many risks. Amla was especially circumspect taking 33 balls to reach 32. Levi, after a slow start opened his arms towards the fag end of the innings smashing six fours.
Zimbabwe bowlers looked short of ideas and were easily picked off. The spinners did cause some problems but just had too few a runs to defend on the board.

Welcome to the first official Devil's Take here at Indy Cornrows. Now, if some of you frequent Stampede Blue, you probably have seen at least one of my fanposts. If not, I won't hold it against you!
via l3.yimg.com
Winners of Game 3's in a series generally go on to win the series 4 out of 5 times. In Games 1 and 2, the Heat and Pacers both had chances to win either game, ultimately fading in the 4th quarter. In Game 3, the Pacers would start out dominate, allow Miami back into the game, and emphatically smother them with about 18 min to go in the game. The Pacers outright dominated the second half, only allowing the duo of James/Wade to score 13 pts. By all accounts, this was the Pacers biggest win in the playoffs since the Miller led Pacers went to the NBA Finals.
After the Game 3 loss, it was let out that apparently Dwayne Wade is still nursing some injuries from the regular season and it has impacted his performance. Chris Bosh went down with an abdominal strain, and now Lebron James is actually having to play instead of coasting through the game. I'm sure if you go to the Miami blogs you will see countless crying about the lack of calls going Miami's way in Game 3. It's all excuses.
The Miami Heat are just like 7 of 55 on 3 pt shooting. They've gotten like 60 points total out of players not named Bosh, James, or Wade in 3 games, 25 of which was from Chalmers last night. The Pacers aren't standing around in awe of the Heat. The Pacers aren't the injury-riddled Knicks. The Heat got the benefit of all the calls in Game 1. Turnabout is only fair play in Game 3.
Lebron James elbows:
While I think James is in fact a complete douche, the guy is still one of the premier players in the league. Still, his bush league crap in Games 2 and 3 is getting ridiculous. The flying elbow that almost connected with Granger in Game 2 is exactly what pissed Danny off in Game 3. There was no need for that crap in the game, and I for one was GLAD to see someone tear into James. It's almost like people are afraid to go after the guy. He's just like anyone else, you can get into his head and screw with him. Still, I was glad to see him choke on the technical free throw because quite honestly, he had no business shooting it in the first place.
For all the crying I'm sure Miami fans are doing right now about foul calls, the series has just gone that way. In Game 1, the Heat went to the stripe at will it seemed. In Game 2, the officials seemed to actually call it pretty close for both teams. In Game 3, there were stretches where the Pacers did in fact get the benefit. There were also stretches where the Heat got calls as well. At the end of the game however, both teams would get called for about 20 fouls each (Heat 21, Pacers 20 plus 2 Technicals). Still, the most glaring issue for the refs is how Lebron James has only been called for 2 fouls in the ENTIRE series thus far. I'm simply blown away by this. Say what you want, but he's clearly getting the superstar treatment and this is one HUGE reason why the NBA has fallen off.
Shock and Awe:
Since Miami debuted the Big 3, it's essentially been a forgone conclusion that they were the team to beat. Ironically, the teams that have beaten the Heat consistently have done it with one common thing: body blows. In boxing, they always teach you to hit the body, as the boxer will tire quicker, making his fighting and defense harder. The same thing applies here. Every team that has had constant success against the Heat has attacked them physically, pushing them back on their heels. It's a big difference when the other team isn't standing around in awe of who you are or what you are capable of doing. It's quite ironic that Wade would mention the Mavericks in his statements after Game 2, as they did exactly what the Pacers are doing now. They constantly attacked the Miami Heat, on the boards, on defense, and they NEVER backed off.
While the Pacers did in fact come into this series having gone 1-3 against the Heat in the regular season, it was and is a bad indicator of how this series will turn out. In 2 of the Pacers 3 losses to the Miami Heat, they would shoot an absolute abysmal shooting percentage and turn the ball over very badly. The other 2 games against the Heat were actually a much different story. At this point, David West was back to full strength and had become an integral part of the team. The Pacers were playing a better, more complete team effort in each game. The Pacers would push the Heat almost to a Double OT only to lose at the last second. In their final meeting of the season, the Pacers absolutely destroyed the Heat similar to how they did in Game 3. Tough defense, clutch shooting, and getting in the face of the Heat on every possession.
Looking forward:
The Pacers cannot afford to look beyond Game 4 against the Heat on Sunday. If they can pull out a win here at home, it would essentially put a nail in the coffin on this series. Still, if we look beyond the Miami series, the Pacers actually match up well with all of the teams that are currently winning their respective series. The only team with a winning advantage against the Pacers is the Spurs, as they only played once. However, the Pacers went in a hole early in that one and just never got out of it.
- Did anyone else want to see David West just pummel Mario Chalmers last night? I watched Chalmers try to eyeball West and all I could do was laugh my butt off. West just looked down at him like do you have a death wish?
- Hibbert's play was simply fantastic last night. 19 pts, 18 rebounds, and 5 blks. That's a great stat line for a guy who has finally lived up to the expectations of him out of college.
- David West gets my vote for MVP of the Pacers for the season. His tough nosed, take no prisoners mentality has really started to filter out to the rest of the team. Adding to that a young savvy, defensive minded coach, and West has had a major impact on the Pacers as a whole. If I'm Larry Bird, I rip his contract up the moment the season is over, and sign him to a longer deal, perhaps 3-4 years.
- Danny Granger needs to start getting involved more on the offensive end of the game. He's passing up too many shots, even on bad shots, to give it other guys who are taking equally bad shots. I'd rather see Granger with a stat line of 4-17 then Granger 3-6.
- I know why Coach Popovich got COY this season, but I can't help but think Vogel was far more deserving. The Spurs were the best team in the West last year, and they only got better in the offseason. To say that were the Spurs finished is a shock, is just silly. The Pacers were picked to finish behind teams like Atlanta, Philly, and even the Knicks. However, the Pacers were the 5th best team in the NBA, and would have been a 3 seed in either the East or West conferences.
- Irony: Pacers traded their entire draft in the 2011 draft to the Spurs for George Hill. They have made the 2nd round of the playoffs due in part to the play of Hill. Kawhi Leonard, whom many were hoping the Pacers would draft, and subsequently dealt to the Spurs for Hill, is also in the 2nd round of the playoffs. Both players traded for in the draft have paid huge dividends for their respective teams since the trade.
- If the Pacers want to make moves in the offseason, they don't need to look at point guards. Nash, Williams, none of those guys really fix what the Pacers most glaring issue is. That issue, is the lack of a consistent scoring threat. The Pacers need a guy who can both start and come in with the second unit and consistently score 10-12 pts a game. Barbosa may be that guy, but realistically, the Pacers need someone like George to make that next step. If the Pacers can get a go to guy on their second unit, it would drastically alter their game. Nash is an interesting option, and if he could be gotten on the cheap, I wouldn't be against it.
As always, thanks for reading and I am glad to see the swagger back in Naptown. I can't wait for Game 4. GO PACERS!!!

SENSA is Isabella's Dream Come True!
The beginning of my story actually starts over two years ago. I injured myself while exercising and I had to have major hip surgery. Months after my surgery, I had some serious complications and my mobility became extremely limited. I was not able to do regular exercise and even needed a walker to get around daily. Because I was so restricted, I gained over 40lbs. I was 5'4", 180lbs and wearing a size 16. Because of my physical limitations, I was feeling pretty helpless about losing weight. Then I found SENSA and my life dramatically changed.
I had tried various weight loss products in the past, but SENSA sounded different, like a 'new concept. I was very excited about it working for me, like it had for the many women and men I'd seen in the infomercial. SENSA didn't require exercise, which for me, was essential, given my limitations. Plus, it sounded really easy…I could just sprinkle it on my food and lose weight? I knew I could do that! I also loved that I could continue to eat some of the food I love. I don't like to be restricted or deprived of the foods I like to eat.
With SENSA, I started "sensing"' how it worked immediately. The first evening, I ate less than half of what I normally would eat. It was like there was a little voice saying, "Hey, you're almost full, you should stop eating now", so I did. I'd never done that before! I began listening to my body and with every meal I would become more satisfied while eating less. I also started losing weight; it was really working! Within the first few days, I joined the online SENSA Community because I wanted to learn everything I could to increase my weight loss. I got some great tips, such as drinking at least 64oz+ water daily, using a smaller plate to eat and making sure I ate at least 1200+ calories a day so my body didn't go into "starvation mode". I also met some helpful and supportive people who began encouraging me throughout my SENSA journey.
Within the first few weeks, using SENSA had taught me portion control and it changed other bad eating habits of mine. I stopped cravings sweets and comfort food on a daily basis. I also used to eat when I was watching TV or bored; I didn't do that anymore. Those cravings and urges just seemed to disappear. I still ate some of the foods I liked such as lasagna, pizza, pasta and chicken; I just didn't eat as much of them. I also still ate chocolate, cake and other sweets, but again, it was a treat a few times a week, not daily. I kept losing weight and by the end of my first month, I lost over 13lbs! By the end of my first six month system, I lost over 35lbs! Normally, this is where I should say it was hard work, but it wasn't…this is the easiest weight loss product/system I have ever tried!
SENSA is SO easy to use! Honestly, anyone can use it -anytime / anywhere! You just have to get in the habit of using it every day, every time you eat, consistently sprinkling it on all of your food. Then when your body tells you it is satisfied, you just stop eating. It's really that easy! Then your brain and your body do the rest. Of course, everyone's bodies are different and SENSA is a 6-month system, but if you truly commit to it, SENSA will work for you too! It can and will change your life, just like it has mine and so many others!
SENSA has changed… no, it has TRANSFORMED my Life! I have been using SENSA for a little over a year and I am ecstatic to say that I now 130.6lbs and I am a size 4. I have lost over 49lbs, so far! SENSA has transformed my overweight body into a beautiful and curvy shape. In addition, to the changes in my appearance, SENSA has helped me see myself in a whole new light. I am no longer ashamed, embarrassed or isolated from the world. I am now a more social, confident, and happy person. This truly is the healthiest and happiest I have been in my life! SENSA gave me a fresh start, by taking control of my eating habits and not requiring typical, regular exercise. This allowed me to take the steps necessary to make major progress with my medical situation. After losing the first 35lbs, I started extensive physical therapy. Due to that, I'm able to be more mobile and I've even started to walk with a cane sometimes. I do not know of any other weight loss product that could have helped me this much. I could not have done this without SENSA!
I LOVE SENSA and everything it has done (and continues to do) for me and for so many others! Thank you SENSA and to everyone who continues to support me throughout my SENSA journey!

DALLAS — "My chest started hurting and it was hurting across my shoulders," recalled 56-year-old Beverly Spinden. "And you know what I remember more? More my upper arms."
A year after that heart attack, Spinden still reflects on its surprising cause. It wasn't plaque build-up from unhealthy living, but her beloved dog, named Ritz.
Just days after Ritz died, Spinden started suffering chest pain.
She went to Texas Health Dallas Hospital and was treated by Dr. James Park, an interventional cardiologist wh has seen cases like Sinden's before.
"What they theorize is the arteries spasm, causing damage to the heart," he said. "Then, when I do an angiogram to look at the arteries, it looks like there's no blockages there, but there's damage to the heart."
It's called stress cardiomyopathy, or "broken heart syndrome."
New research presented this week at the Experimental Biology meeting in San Diego finds that during mental stress, blood flow through the heart increases in men, but doesn't change in women. The findings suggest women's hearts might not adjust properly to stress.
This study involved just 17 people. Experts say more studies are needed to determine why there is a gender difference in stress response.
"I think that women — being the complex beings that they are — they really do get affected by stressful situations," Dr. Park said. "How they react is after an event is much worse than men. Some of that is late diagnosis; some of that is the artery size differences."
Beverly Spinden has had no lasting effects from the attack, though her heart still aches for Ritz.

not a city full of attractions and fun
this is a city for living rather than for attractions. The museums here are not very exciting. This city does not have a long history, unlike Edinburgh.
Entertaining and welcoming, Glasgow is a great choice for a weekend break or a longer visit. Situated on the River Clyde, it is the biggest city in Scotland and the third biggest in the UK. As well as a lively social scene and fascinating, free museums, the city also boasts some of the best shopping outside of London. To top it off, it's an easy city to get around and the Glaswegian people are very hospitable.

this is a city for living rather than for attractions. The museums here are not very exciting. This city does not have a long history, unlike Edinburgh.
Unless you are way into the Arts or are a fan of architecture then this city is very much a stop over. If you like the Arts then there is a lot to do and see. The city has a modern feel and lacks a variety of different tourist attractions. The one place to go is the Necropolis. This is a stunning cemetery and well worth the visit. I would recommend a day to just walk around the city and through the parks.
Insider Tip:There are many museums but they close early so start in the morning.
We only spent one night in Glasgow, but that one night made me want to come back! The people were EXTREMELY friendly! We two cab drivers and both of them were just lovely. We also spoke with some locals over breakfast because they like our American accents! We definitely want to spend some more time in the cosmopolitan yet very welcoming city.
Insider Tip:Take cabs! The drivers put American cab drivers to shame.
Glasgow was very nice and the people were very helpful. Visiting Glasgow Science Center is a must see and you need a minimum of 6 hours to see as much as possible and to play with all those cool "toys".
Glasgow is a great city with a ton to see! Walking the length of the city takes an hour if not more, so use of city buses is definitely necessary.
Insider Tip:Via Italia italian food restaurant! It's right in the city center, good prices, and great food! To get around the city, buy a ticket for the city sightseeing bus. The ticket works for 2 days and can get you all over the city with a commentary so you can learn a little about what there is to offer.

I don't know what's worse: the sexual assault, the fact that TMZ sent Earl and me this article, or that they referred to Mark Hardy as an "ex-NHL star." OK, the worst part is the assault, but the other stuff is bad too.
TMZ has learned 51-year-old Mark Hardy is in police custody after his daughter told cops that Mark "put his hand down [her] shorts and touched her genital area without her permission."
I sent my brother a text about it and he replied, "Why couldn't it be Jamie Kompon?" My brother is a terrible person.

Best of Toronto
The Best Custom T-Shirts in Toronto
The best custom t-shirts in Toronto are found beyond the malls and chain retail stores on Queen. To find the best custom and wholesale suppliers in Toronto, with the best quality and prices, look no further than this list below. Here you'll find t-shirts that are comfortable, machine washable and always in style. And, of course, all these places are more than happy to sell you their own designs or print cool images or tees with pithy remarks you've created yourself.
Done right, there's no more convenient way to tell the world that you can't wait to procrastinate, you're with someone who is stupid or you should be kissed because you happen to be of Irish descent than to have it boldly emblazoned across your chest in 100% cotton glory.
So where are the best places in Toronto to go to get the coolest custom t-shirts imaginable? We recently put this question to the smartest and hippest people we could find (our readers), and here's what you had to say ...
Photo of the best t-shirt ever by BlogTO Flickr pooler vasta
Hardboiled design and print all their shirts themselves and ship them to stores all across North America, but they hold onto a few to sell locally in their Kensington Market shop as well. According to their website, they like to make shirts that make strangers say "Hello. I like your t-shirt. Let's go see a movie." More »
The T-Shirt Guys
Look eastward and you'll find the T-Shirt Guys taking an environmental stand when making t-shirts. They do all their printing using 100% biodegradable inks derived from soybeans. Mmm, soybeans. More »
The Public Butter
An off-shoot of Black Market Vintage Clothing, the Public Butter has its own custom silk screen shop in the back. In addition to cool shirts, the shop also features vintage clothing, furnishings, collectibles and art from local artists. More »

"T-shirts are awesome. They're comfortable, machine washable, and always in style. As an added bonus, it's easy to print cool images and pithy remarks on them."
That, along with the stock photo of hipster girl with bad hair, big glasses and lame slogan t (with a name tag!).
SWPL captures this page so perfectly.
What is wrong with the girl in the picture? That t-shirt happens to be awesome and she's a great fun person. Wearing glasses is not a crime, I wear them myself, so what? Plus it's not a stock photo it was taken during a party.
Jerrold: I can't believe you spoke ill of the dancing hamster ;)
Anyhow. I really love Hardboiled as well - I've never actually visited the Kensington location, but I always visit their booth at the twice-yearly Clothing Show - they offer special discounts when you buy two or more shirts.
http://defunkd.com/
They've got rock, metal, punk, sports, movies, pop culture, women's and kid's stuff from the '70s, '80s and '90s. Choice selections, for sure.
I can say enough good things about them.
Their customer service ROCKS!
Kathy :)
I'm in Lisbon Portugal but I've been inside "The Shop" store in the TdoT. They have a lot of signed records on the walls...from Bruce Cockburn to Martha and the Muffins to the Kings, Poison, July Black, Molly Johnson and so on...a lot like the Icon "Sam the Record Man" store inside. But it's a t-shirt store. :)
The girl there is awesome, I listen to CBC radio and Vinyl Cafe did a little thingee on her...she is really nice. I got a few t-shirts, one was the "Parkdale Alive with Pleasure". That day, this guy was there getting t-shirts too, (www.denzalsinclaire.com/web/bio/index.php), Denzal Sinclaire.
Anyway, I do miss Toronto, hope to get back there soon.
Oh, their website is SpoT98.net
Cheers from Lisbon,
They also have a custom website

Offensive Rookie of Week
16 carries, 93 yards, 2 TD; 1 reception, 3 yards
In what is a star-studded group of running backs, Slaton is becoming the elite big-play back. His two-touchdown performance against the Colts showed his ability to break a big play and to be a dangerous all-purpose weapon. Slaton's vision and footwork have stood out in the Texans' zone-based running scheme. He has shown good patience and trust in his blockers. Slaton's value as a blocker is starting to show also
Best of the Rest
2. Duane Brown, OT, Texans - Both of Slaton's touchdown runs were to the left side, where Brown was doing a solid job all day against a weaker Colts defensive line. His one blemish was allowing a sack to Dwight Freeney.
Both Steve Slaton and Duane Brown were recognized by New Era Scouting as top rookies.

Over the duration of studying textiles, I've looked at a LOT of patterns. I've noticed I usually like 2 colour patterns, very geometric, and it's been hard to branch off and do multicolour patterns and designs. The one above is my Dala Horse design for a Hankies project and I was very happy with it, it printed well and is very geometric. I'd like to print this again in the future, perhaps dulling the colours to a tone more suitable to my new palate. Perhaps even a greyscale would be nice. The pattern below is a repeat of illustrations I did, the vintage clothing was from a fantastic book from my library that I copied, manipulated and finished the illustrations to have animals wearing the clothes, I think I'd like to print some more of this and use it as lining fabric in the future. Its interesting, but not over the top and is a very one way directional design. After my work experience doing multi directional designs I've noticed I tend to always apply direction to my design somehow, giving it purpose as I normally design for a specific product or application. I've grown to love repeats, I hope to do more in the near future, as I have many projects in mind for them.

JACKSON, MS (WLBT) - The suspected car burglar involved in a shootout with an off-duty Jackson police officer Thursday has a long history of auto burglary.
This according to Mississippi Department of Corrections records. Which raises the question: Why was 24-year-old Fabian Chapman out of jail?
Most recently Chapman was arrested on four counts of auto burglary last year.
In March he was sentenced to five years in prison.
Hinds County Judge Winston Kidd suspended all five years, letting Chapman off on two years probation.
He didn't spend a day in jail.
That arrest also put him in violation of probation, from a auto theft conviction, where he served nearly three years in prison.

HAMMOND � Music from a variety of cultures and historical eras, as well as music from Louisiana composers, will be the focus of this year's Southeastern Louisiana University Guitar Festival.
Sponsored by the Southeastern Arts and Lectures Committee, the Southeastern Guitar Club, Jody Mayeux's Music Shop of Walker, and Dr. Ted's Musician's Center of Hammond, the festival was launched March 20 with a performance by guitar instructor and festival coordinator Patrick Kerber and will run through April 24. All events are free and open to the public.
"The festival will bring an eclectic mix of music for guitar to the campus that students, faculty, and the community typically would not have an opportunity to hear without traveling," Kerber said. "This is one of the primary goals of the festival both from an educational and an entertainment perspective."
On March 27 Cain Budds, assistant professor of guitar and music theory at Louisiana Tech University, will present a masterclass for Southeastern guitarists at 2 p.m. in Pottle Auditorium, room 124. Budds will also present a solo recital that evening. The 7:30 p.m. recital in Pottle Auditorium will feature contemporary and classical Spanish music for solo guitar as well as new music from Australia and Louisiana-based composer Joshua Carver.
On April 10 David Bryan will present a concert of solo guitar music, music for two guitars, and two guitars with voice, featuring guest performers Soprano Jessica Davis Bryan and Kerber. The program will feature music from South America and Spanish music from the Baroque to the 20th century Spanish composers Manuel de Falla and Joaquin Rodrigo. The concert will begin at 7:30 p.m. in Pottle Auditorium.
The increasingly popular All Styles Night on the Circle will take place on April 15 at 7:30 p.m. at the outdoor Pottle Performance Circle, Kerber added. The concert will feature guitarists and musicians from the community, students, and non-music faculty performing jazz, classical, bluegrass, folk, pop, and original music in various combinations of guitars and other instruments. The event will move inside to Pottle Auditorium should inclement weather arise.
"This event has become a fixture in the festival, offering something for everyone," added Kerber.
The festival will close on April 24 with the Southeastern Guitar Ensemble. Featuring music from Latin America for guitar and violin, as well as for guitar trio and French music for guitar quartet, the concert is scheduled at 7:30 p.m. in Pottle Auditorium.
"A fitting close to the festival, Latin Tangos for violin and guitar, a German writing French party music, and a Frenchman composing passionate, and Spanish gypsy-inspired music � the ultimate mixed bag," Kerber said.
The full ensemble of 13 guitars will perform music from the German Baroque composer Telemann in the style of French "Burlesque" and selections from the Orchestral Suite from "Carmen" by French composer Georges Gizat.
For further information, contact Kerber at 985-549-2886 or email@example.com.

Wallington man gives Tom Cruise two planes to blow up (From Sutton Guardian)

Wallington man gives Tom Cruise film company two planes to blow up for upcoming movie All You Need Is Kill
Updated 1:47pm Monday 25th March 2013 in News By Mike Murphy-Pyle, Chief Reporter
Film star Tom Cruise has borrowed a Sutton man's plane, blown it up and then left him to clear up the rubbish.
Fortunately, that was all part of the agreement when Wallington plane salvage expert Mustafa Azim agreed to let the producers of Cruise's upcoming blockbuster All You Need Is Kill borrow two of his planes and blow holes in them so they could be used as props.
Mr Azim, 47, runs Imperial Air Salvage. He picks up old aircraft and repairs them or salvages what he can from them. He has a large collection of craft and agreed to let Warner Brothers borrow two of his planes, including a Boeing 737.
Mr Azim said: "Basically, we gave Tom Cruise two planes, he blew them up and then we had to come back and clear up afterwards!
"Actually, they didn't actually blow them up completely. They wanted to use them as props on a beach scene where they had already crashed.
"So, they put special explosives on them and blew holes in them and then they got a load of sand and dumped the aircraft on to it.
"Then they filmed the sequence and we came back to pick everything up."
The filming happened in Leavesden, near Watford, but Mr Azim and his team were not allowed on set at the same time as the actors, who include Cruise, Emily Blunt and Bill Paxton.
Despite this, Mr Azim was able to pick up a number of souvenirs from the filming including props like ammunition boxes, aeroplane controls and even two inflatable dinghies.
Mr Azim set up Imperial Air Salvage after being made redundant from his job with an airline during the global recession.
He used his redundancy to buy a decommissioned 747 which he scrapped. Since then his company has salvaged 22 more planes and has even converted one into a restaurant.
Recently he bought a plane from former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussain's old fleet.
All You Need is Kill, a science fiction film about a soldier played by Cruise, is out next year.

Behind The Scenes- Invitations & Backdrop
The plan was to make the invitations but I actually stumbled across and super cute invite while searching for other items on Etsy, I will add a few extra creative touches to add a personal touch which is always important with any invite, these are still work in progress so will show you these in my next post.
In the meantime……… While working on the invites I felt I needed to get a SAVE THE DATE out via email as time is ticking, so with the co-operation of Miss Sienna, task completed within 1 hour! TOO CUTE XO
My advice to you if you want to do a save the date similar to this, place something interesting on the back of the sign for the little one to focus on, I placed a couple of circles cut from glitter paper on the back which seemed to do the trick.
Time to think about the design of the dessert table, after the colour selection I always start with the backdrop.
When deciding on a backdrop remember it is exactly that a backdrop, not the focal point, the hero should be the beautiful desserts. Go with something that will compliment the desserts, I have decided to handcraft a subtle scalloped design out of light grey napkins, time consuming but easy.
That's it for now, back soon with the invitation and dessert table layout.
Thanks for your time

Health problems and Nutritional Status of Indians in the
Some of the important health problems faced
by Indian immigrants include chronic degenerative diseases
such as diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases and
complications arising from any of these conditions. In fact,
Indian immigrants have a significantly higher risk of cardiovascular
disease with heart disease rates estimated to be one and one
half to four times greater than Caucasians. Research has shown
that there is susceptibility among us towards developing non-insulin
dependent Type 2 diabetes. There are several reasons for this:
hereditary differences in lipid metabolism, excessive insulin
resistance, increased glucose tolerance, increased abdominal
fat and lifestyle changes such as lowered physical activity
coupled with increasing stress. Concerns also center around
nutrition problems stemming from dietary changes such as altered
vegetarian status, meal patterns, increased consumption of
fast and convenient American foods as substitutes for healthy
Indian foods. This results in the abandonment of a diet traditionally
high in complex carbohydrates and low in fat to a diet high
in saturated fat, animal protein and low in fiber.
What can you do?
Your nourishment does not depend on the selection
of any one food. Instead it depends on the consistent and
continuous selection of many different healthy foods on a
day to day basis.
Can nutrition and exercise improve cholesterol and triglyceride
and lower the risk of heart disease in Indians?
Yes, since a significant rise in heart disease
among Indians is due to inappropriate dietary habits and a
lack of exercise. Some children may also be at a higher risk
for developing dyslipidemia (high triglycerides and high LDL
High Cholesterol and /or high triglyceride
can be lowered with a healthful diet. Indians may have a condition
called insulin resistance or metabolic syndrome.
The primary case of an increase in heart disease in Indians
is due to the metabolic syndrome described as high triglyceride
levels and low HDL (good cholesterol) levels. These levels
are also associated with upper body (waist) obesity and high
insulin levels in the blood. Metabolic syndrome includes dyslipidemia,
high blood pressure, and a moderate increase in blood sugar
or diabetes. Accompanied by a small weight loss (if overweight),
consistent daily aerobic exercise for a minimum of 30 minutes
to an hour (e.g. walking) can increase the good HDL cholesterol
and lower triglycerides, lower blood pressure and blood sugar.
Incorporating a weight and resistance training regimen into
the cardio program will give added benefits and can reverse
metabolic syndrome in many people. The question we should
ask ourselves is not whether we should exercise but rather
can we afford NOT to exercise. A high level of homocysteine
and lipoprotein are also risk factors for heart disease. Ask
your doctor if you should have these blood tests.
What causes higher triglyceride levels and how to lower it:
Triglycerides are the blood fats strongly
associated with diet and weight. Being overweight, consuming
excessive sweets and alcohol can increase the triglyceride
levels in the blood. The best level of triglyceride is 150
mg/dl or less. However, some labs indicate levels up to 250
mg/dl as normal. An increase in triglycerides can suggest
changes in the lipoprotein patterns that are not healthy.
This unhealthy change is referred to as Pattern B. Eating
a high carb diet can cause triglycerides to increase. The
amount and type of food consumed both can affect the triglyceride
levels. Weight gain due to overeating will also raise triglyceride
levels. Alcohol can also increase triglyceride levels in the
A low fat diet accompanied by weight reduction
will lower triglycerides. Eating fatty fish, e.g. salmon,
mackerel and trout once or twice a week may help lower the
triglycerides as these are high in omega-3 fatty acids. Flax
Seeds may also be beneficial on a heart healthy diet although
they do not have the two essential fatty acids EPA and DHA
that fish have.
Fitting Fat and Oils into your daily diet:
Fat is an important nutrient because the
body cannot produce its own and must get it from the diet.
A low fat diet accompanied by weight reduction will lower
triglycerides. Eating too little fat but enough food to maintain
weight usually results in your triglycerides going up and
your HDL going down. Although your triglyceride may stay in
the lab normal range (<150 mg/dl) you do not want your
triglyceride to go over 100 mg/dl. If your triglyceride levels
go above 100 md/dl your HDL will usually go down. Obviously,
you do not want to do anything to lower your HDL. A healthy
HDL for men is at least 45 mg/dl and for women is 55 mg/dl.
Sometimes, reducing your fat intake will allow you to loose
some weight. During active weight loss, HDL is reduced.
Moderation the key to a healthful diet:
The appropriate diet you should eat to lower
your triglycerides is one that is moderate in fat. A typical
woman can consume 3-4 tablespoons (45-50 g/day) or oils/fats
daily and a typical man about 75 g daily. (5-6 table spoons),
but the fats should be primarily from monounsaturated sources.
Monounsaturated fats are the fats found in olive oil and canola
oil. Avoid foods made with saturated fat (fat that is solid
at room temperature). To reduce the LDL (bad) cholesterol
in your blood, saturated fat and dietary cholesterol should
be reduced in the diet. Saturated fats have the most dramatic
effect on raising LDL cholesterol. These are butter, ghee,
lard, shortening, coconut and fat in meat including chicken,
They are solid at room temperature. They are also found in
baked foods (pastries, kulfi, rasmalai, pies, cakes and cookies)
and prepared foods made with these fats such as in restaurants
(fried appetizers, marinated entrees, butter and cream based
sauces). To lower your cholesterol choose as little saturated
fat as possible and lose weight if you are overweight.
All Fats are not created Equal:
You can eat other types of fat. It is simply
not true that no fat in the diet is better than any
fat in the diet. One trap of fat that is thought to
be good is called monounsaturated fat. This is the type of
fat in olives and olive oil, canola oil and peanut oil. By
using canola and olive oil in food preparation you can improve
your cholesterol levels. If you have a weight problem you
would want to limit the intake of all oils including the monounsaturated
oils. You can use these oils in cooking and salad dressings.
There are a few margarines and mayonnaises made with monounsaturated
fat. Read your labels carefully looking for canola or olive
oil and monounsaturated fats than other fats on the label.
The new margarines made from plant cholesterol, e.g. Benecol
and Conttolo can also lower LDL cholesterol levels.
Vegetarian Alternatives including use of SOY:
Tofu is an excellent choice for protein especially
in place of Paneer. Unlike Paneer
which is high in saturated fat, the fat in tofu is preferable
to unsaturated fat. Legumes (dried beans and lentils) including
daal are naturally low in fat, high in protein
and carb and in fiber. Soy milk like tofu is available in
low fat varieties. Soy milk usually has a beany after taste
which most people find quite unpleasant Try using soy milk
with fresh fruit to make delicious smoothies. Soy yogurt and
soy cheeses are also available in supermarkets. Check the
fat content as these can be high in fat. Nuts and seeds, avocados
and olives are considered good fats because they are high
in monounsaturated (good) fat. Be aware that these good fats
are also high in calories and can cause weight problem. Vegetarian
burger patties can be a convenient and nutritious alternative
to the meat patties. Two or three servings (2 or 3 oz each)
of protein foods and two or three servings (8 floz) of low
fat or non fat milk or buttermilk or yogurt is recommended
daily. Also recommended are 6 to 11 servings of grains and
5 servings of fruits and vegetables daily. Use of whole milk
in the preparation of chai and desserts during
the Hindu festivals e.g. peda can add saturated
fat in the diet. Though such items can be worked into occasional
use on an exchange basis, They can contribute to high cholesterol
and/or high triglyceride levels.
Choosing Healthy Snacks:
One of the lifestyle changes made by Asian
Indian Immigrants in the US and other countries relates to
food intake and this has many health implications. Savory
and sweet snack foods have always been an indispensable part
of the Indian cuisine. There always was chevda, sev and various
saltines (namkeens) whipped oiut of the pantry in a quick
minute to be served and shared with a cup of tea or coffee,
even for the unexpected guest.
Snacking however has assumed an even more
important role in the Asian-Indian immigrant household due
to busy lifestyle and time constraints. Lack of time for food
preparation, (secondary to long commutes to work. Multiple
tasks, and responsibilities ) the absence of social support
systems for child care and the availability of ready to eat
snack foods that may not necessarily be healthy.
Most vegetarian snack items are made with
cereals like rice, rice flour, semolina (sooji) refined wheat
flour (maida) or whole wheat four (atta) and legume floours
like chick pea flour (besan), moong flour either in combination
or alone. Some snack items may contain nuts, vegetables, spices,
salt, oil, ghee and or sugar.
Based on the method of preparation snacks
may be:
- Savory and salted snacks that are not deep-fried
e.g. Upma, Pav Bhaji.
- Savory and salted items that are deep fried, e.g, samosa,
Pakoras, Bhujias, and Murruku (deep fried, crunch spirals)
- Savory and salted items that contain a combination of deep
fried and raw ingredients e.g. Bhel Puri, Dahi wada, Pani
Puri and Chaats.
- Sweet snacks prepared and preserved in a sugar medium e.g
Rasagolla, Pumpkin petha.
- Sweet snacks deep fat fried and preserved in sugar syrup,
e.g. Jalebi, Gulab Hamun
- Non-vegeterian snacks baked, fried or grilled,.e.g chicken
or mutton tikka, egg pakoras, fish fry, shish Kababs.
Choose low fat, grilled or baked, high protein
snacks over sweet, high carb, fried snacks.
Nutritional Values of Snacks:
Vegeterian snack foods that are based on
cereals or legumes are high in carbs. The fat and calorie
content is high as well, due to many of the items being either
fried or containing, oils, ghee or butter. While the salt
content of the savory snacks may be high the sweet snacks
tend to have even higher amounts of carbs due to the sugar
content. When served in combination a savory item with a sweet
snack- the mini meal may have the calories, fats and carbs
to be safely considered a meal replacement.
Non vegetarian snack items though considerably
lower in carbs and higher in protein are still calorie rich
due to the fats they may contain (often saturated).
Snack Patterns:
Traditionally savory snacks are consumed
between meals while sweet snacks may be consumed after dinner.
A social visit by friends or family prompts the inclusion
of snacks with a cup of coffee or tea and may be sweet, savory
or both, for not only the guests but the hosts as well. Snacks
feature prominently in holiday and special occasion menus.
A predominant number of Asian Indians men
and women are in the workforce, hence on weekdays the work
force environment may permit the inclusion of a pre-lunch
snack at work and a predinner snack either before leaving
the workplace or upon arrival at home. Lack of time for food
and snack preparation may influence the inclusion of ready
to eat snacks in the diets of this population. Store-made,
ready-to-eat snacks while being available on time to appease
hunger may offer very little room for manipulation of the
actual nutrients and calories ingested. Weekend snacking provides
an opportuinity to consume more traditional Indian snack items
both at home and/or social gatherings. It is customary to
serve snacks as appetizers in restaurants and homes.
The challenge of selecting and consuming
healthy snacks though daunting is achievable even for the
diabetic seeking glycemic control and weight management.
Tips for choosing healthful snacks:
Daily Living:
o Plan your snack menu ahead.
o Take snacks along with you to work.
o Add xing to bland items with free foods
o Select whole grains when feasible.
o Select baked or steamed snacks rather than fried snacks
o Include fresh fruit rather than fruit juice toincrease fiber
Dining Out:
o Eat a healthy snack at home before you go out ( a slice
of low calorie whole wheat toast with coriander chutney)
o Pick appetizers that are not fried pick a light soup
or fresh lemonade or tomoto juice.
o Eat sowly relishing every bite.
o In social situations learn to say no to second servings.
o If eating in a restaurant- divide your entrée into
2 parts.Consume one part and take the other part home for
the next meal.

PATCHOGUE, NY – MARCH 29, 2012 – The Institute for the Study of Religion in Community Life at St. Joseph's College is pleased to announce that Sr. Mary Beth Moore, S.C., co-director of The Long Island Alliance for Peaceful Alternatives, will be the recipient of this year's Esse Non Videri Non-Violence Award on Thursday, April 19 at 12:40 p.m. in the McGann Conference Center located on the College's Long Island Campus.
Co-director of The Long Island Alliance for Peaceful Alternatives, Sr. Mary Beth Moore, S.C. has been advocating for peace within vulnerable populations for more than 40 years. From 2003 to 2008, she served as coordinator of Pax Christi Long Island, where she remains an active member within its local chapter council. Sr. Mary Beth is a former pastoral agent for a Catholic Church in Bellmore, NY and served in the same capacity in South America for 10 years. She also held an administrative post within her congregation, the Sisters of Charity. Sr. Mary Beth holds an M.A. in Rehabilitation Counseling from New York University.
"Sr. Mary Beth Moore is a model of the College's commitment to furthering local and global efforts toward advancing peace and justice," said Patrick Tracy, director of campus ministry for SJC's Long Island Campus. "Her history of leadership with the peace advocacy groups Pax Christi and the Long Island Alliance for Peaceful Alternatives, as well as her contributions to her own religious community, the Sisters of Charity, make her a very worthy recipient of the Esse Non Videri award."
Named after the College's motto, Esse Non Videri: "To be, not to seem," the Non-Violence Award is presented annually to individuals who exemplify compassion, social engagement and spirituality in the pursuit of social justice and peace. Recipients are chosen for their commitment to a nonviolent way of life and efforts toward bringing about peace, perhaps in an individual or personal situation, or to the wider community or world. Past recipients include Nobel Peace Prize nominee Fr. John Dear; women's rights activist Homaira Mamoor; award-winning journalist Antoinette Bosco; peace activist Sr. Mary Fritz; Woodrow Wilson Fellow Janet Wallach; and Dead Man Walking author Sr. Helen Prejean.
"By living a life of dedicated service, especially to the most vulnerable and marginalized in society, Sr. Mary Beth has lived up to the words of the College's motto from which the award takes its name —'To be, not to seem,'" said Mr. Tracy. "She is a great source of inspiration and she honors us all in receiving this award."
This event is free, open to the public and by RSVP only. A light lunch will be served. For more information, call 631.687.2681 or email email@example.com.
