REVELSTOKE, B.C.—An avalanche has swept down the backside of the Revelstoke Mountain Resort, catching up a group of three skiers and killing one of them.
RCMP Cpl. Dan Moskaluk said Friday the group was skiing in an out-of-bounds area a distance from the resort in the Greely Lake area when the avalanche came down earlier in the day.
"A number of the group were able to get out to summon further help and are speaking with RCMP investigators and search and rescue," he said.
Rob Elliot, general manager of the Revelstoke Mountain Resort, said the three were part of a group of five or six men.
Moskaluk said other members of the group were able to rescue two of the three people involved, but the third person was found dead.
"I don't know what equipment they were equipped with, but they did self-rescue," Moskaluk said, adding the body will be recovered Saturday.
Neither Elliot nor Moskaluk could give the skiers ages or where they are from.
Canadian Avalanche Centre forecasts indicate a high danger rating in many areas of the province, meaning travel isn't recommended in the alpine and at the treeline.
The rating also means that natural avalanches are likely and human-triggered avalanches are very likely.
A series of weather systems has dumped heavy snow on many B.C. mountains.
While the risk is supposed to decrease tomorrow, the avalanche centre indicates the threat will rise again on Sunday when another storm moves in.
The areas where the danger is high include the South Coast, Sea-to-Sky, the North and South Columbia, Monashees and Selkirks, Kootenay-Boundary, the Purcells and the South Rockies.

It's really the general question "why did you do this" - which can be answered at all different levels of generality or precision.

Especially with the economy slowly recovering, there are jobs that are more available in other fields. (My crack about working as a barista not withstanding.) So--the choice isn't "unpaid internship or unemployment," it is "unpaid internship or another line of work." That is what results in bidding war for unpaid jobs among those who are willing to take that economic hit.The Alliance's Center for the Future of Museumshttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2396185811653018574.post-58621765824847638442014-10-31T07:31:27.091-04:002014-10-31T07:31:27.091-04:00I wholeheartedly agree, except for this: "no ...I wholeheartedly agree, except for this: "no one is threatening aspiring museum workers with unemployment if they don't agree to work for free." In point of fact, if you want to work in museums, but don't take internships (mostly unpaid) in college and grad school that give you both experiences to put on your resume and actual skills that you will need in the field, your likelihood of landing the paid museum job you want is slim, because this field is so competitive that entry-level workers are already expected to have years of experience. This competitiveness is the same force that drives and keeps museum wages down: "...fair market value of a museum job is the compensation (cash + intangibles) an employer and a job applicant agree on when both parties are knowledgeable, willing and unpressured." Unfortunately, no one enters the museum job market unpressured, knowing that there are plenty of unemployed PhDs creeping up behind them if they decide the job they want really isn't paying a wage commensurate with their experience, skills, and training.Andrea R.http://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2396185811653018574.post-79934025652520143302014-10-30T14:07:09.168-04:002014-10-30T14:07:09.168-04:00Hi Mom. I think perhaps you meant to leave this co...Hi Mom. I think perhaps you meant to leave this comment on the Blog post for October 28, on unpaid internships?

Thank you for challenging me to support that statement, which I labored to condense, for this post.

I can document that 80% of the graduate students of museum studies programs are female. http://acumen.lib.ua.edu/content/u0015/0000001/0000906/u0015_0000001_0000906.pdf

Regarding why this is so--I too have to fall back on anecdotal experience, and personal conversations. When I travel around the country to speak, I make a point of sitting down with local museum studies students whenever possible. One of the things I ask them, if they feel comfortable answering, is whether they have taken on educational debt to earn the MS degree, and how they can afford that financial burden. Often they tell me they are able to do so because of support from their husband, or their parents. (I'm not sure where the 20% of MS students who are men are hiding, but there are rarely more than one or two, if any, in the groups I meet with. None of this small set have volunteered they are being supported by their wives.) In terms of "academic families that value the trade-off of salary for scholarship" I admit I am on shakier ground. For that proposition, I lean on speculation from long and recurring discussions with friends about the challenges of diversifying the nonprofit workforce. Some people propose that it is simply a matter of pay--if you come from a socioeconomically challenged family (which often covaries with racial minority status, in the US). this proposition goes, you are likely to want to make significant money with your education. But I hear others say this is a condescending attitude--that people who are the first in their families to go to college are just as likely to value mission-driven, poorly paid work. Why don't more people with this economic/demographic background go into museums, then? I'm intrigued by the line of argument, advanced by some of my conversants, that the barrier is cultura/social--i.e, not the money per se by but a broader set of family pressures about appropriate/desirable careers. This aligns with my experience, as I have many friends working in museums who don't come from wealthy families, but many of them come from families that do value education and scholarship.

So no, I can't prove that assertion. And I'd love to see more hard data that helps unpick the reasons people do, or don't, decide to make the economic sacrifice that working in a museum often entails.

That often means women. It often means people from families with a tradition of academia, families that value the trade-off of salary for scholarship."

You had me until this portion where you offer no data at all to back up your claim of who constitutes those who can afford to pay the price of entry.

I find in my anecdotal experience that it is not academic families that pay the way but more crudely wealth that draws the line. It does not restrict gender, or level of scholarship in the field. Simply put if you are wealthy you are in. After all these same individuals are then expected to interact with more wealthy people in various ways to secure donations. There is a glass ceiling in museums but it isn't about pay it is about the ability to not need a job. Hard work and intelligence need not be perquisites.

This is a disturbing trend across disciplines. The decide between those born into money and those who are not is becoming wider.

It is a grotesque manipulation of what was once a means of education for those without a degree in the field, or persons changing the direction of their employment. It was never meant to be mined for free labor and a mechanism for keeping out the educated working classes.Momhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2396185811653018574.post-18306012783008371632014-10-29T13:14:49.832-04:002014-10-29T13:14:49.832-04:00Great application of origami.Great application of origami.William Bergmannhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2396185811653018574.post-70827503589439074692014-10-28T20:48:43.307-04:002014-10-28T20:48:43.307-04:00I have worked both big corporate and non profit.

Upon graduation I left said large corporate business for hopes to make it in a museum in another state. Without a doubt worth every red cent of the money i am no longer making. I work full time in education and get up every day excited about going to work. We do it for the pennies that we make because the benefits far outweigh anything else. You get the encouragement of your peers to publish that research you have spent the last 3years off your life collecting. You get the help of your colleagues when an extra bus of 30 students shows up. You see the absolute delight of a child when they see your mummy for the first time. You get to view first hand some kid in the back of the class who couldn't care less in a classroom, making the connections between what you just said and something to their own life. That's why we work for less than half of what we make in the corporate world. We figure out ways to supplement our income using those crazy skills we have. We do it simply because we love it.

While I do feel that I was 'compensated' appropriately for the time I spent, I also agree with everything you said about non-academic unpaid internships. I've refused to even apply for those because they looked like the museums were taking unfair advantage of people trying to get a toehold in the door.

I agree about those two overlooked priorities, especially the point about staff who actually enjoy interacting with visitors and consider that a fundamental part of their job. I have to say that science center staffs include many more such people, proportionally, than, say, art museums! As for spaces that foster social/participatory interaction among visitors, it's amazing to me how long it takes to update our our built environments to match our (rapidly evolving) ideas about what a museum is for. Yet some museum professionals continue to mistake the built environment for the idea.Peter Linetthttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2396185811653018574.post-62404073192085528872014-10-23T11:32:40.699-04:002014-10-23T11:32:40.699-04:00Great post Peter, sorry I missed you at ASTC!

I think that it's imperative that museums and historic sites seek as much private funding, corporate sponsorship, program fees and admission/membership revenue given the current fiscal situation of the federal government and indeed many cities and states (Illinois, Detroit, California and Oakland)where there are serious structural deficits for the foreseeable future.

Some museums and historic sites need to find additional revenue from internal sources. I can't tell you how many museum and historic sites' websites I have visited where you can't buy any books, souvenirs or even make an online donation. Many museums don't even have a Facebook Page, which is FREE advertising and marketing.

Regarding pay, this also goes back to the aforementioned issues regarding funding for operations and providing a product that the public wants to buy, not simply what we think they should know. If a museum of any size has a poor presence on the web, stale or dull programming, and a declining visitor base, then how can anyone's salary be increased or new staff brought on?

Diversity of thought is definitely essential with any museum or site and I can't agree with those who brought it up more. As a veteran, I have been happy to find a few other veterans in places such as the Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, Oklahoma and the National Historic Trails Center in Caspar, Wyoming during the past year but that's been the exception, rather than the rule.

Last January I interviewed for Manager position with a prominent local non-profit gallery. The kind that's pushing boundaries, working with the community, and supporting artist experimentation. It would have been a great job. A way to transition from a neighboring industry into the arts. A foot in the door, finally. But the pay was almost half of what I was making at the job I would have been leaving (an average middle-class wage, for which I'm grateful, by the way). Not an option for my family.

Who is taking these jobs? I have to imagine a generous parent somewhere paying their rent...

*Interns are not labor, or they shouldn't be. An internship, by definition, is an educational experience for the intern. If it is "labor," paid or unpaid, and the balance of benefit is in the host's favor, it probably is not an internship. Any discussion concerning the ramifications of unpaid internships should start from this premise. IMHO, part of the problem with the growth of unpaid internships as the defacto requirement to break into the museum field is that the educational part seems to have fallen by the wayside and "internship" now just means the same as volunteer or temporary, entry level staff that is unpaid. Without the educational part, it's just not an internship. And requiring the intern to be earning college credit, as many museums do, does not, in an of itself, make an experience "educational." The judge in the recent Black Swan case called such side benefits "of little moment." It should also be noted that requiring college credit for an unpaid internship means the intern is not only working for free, but has to pay tuition for the experience, sometimes in the thousands of dollars. This is a high financial bar to clear for potential museum professionals from modest backgrounds.

* The Department of Labor long ago issued rules interpretting the Fair Labor Standards Act that regulates internships and compensation. It is here http://www.dol.gov/whd/regs/compliance/whdfs71.pdf

While this may or may apply to public or non-profit institutions, it is a really good place to start when weighing the ethics of unpaid internships.

*The footnote in that document that pertains to MOST museums (public and non-profit) states in part. "Unpaid internships in the public sector and for non-profit charitable organizations, where the intern volunteers without expectation of compensation, are generally permissible. WHD is

rnships in the public and non-profit sectors"

Two points. "Generally permissible" is an awful weak thread for the museum world to hang on considering how prevalent unpaid internships have become. Especially considering how many court cases on this issue are currently pending. This could literally change overnight.

Also, it would be great for someone with the right authority and letterhead to contact the Wage and Hour Division of the DoL to see if the review they say the undertook in 2010 has gone anywhere. I emailed once and got no reply.Matthew Whitehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2396185811653018574.post-8099131582021023502014-10-02T15:57:09.109-04:002014-10-02T15:57:09.109-04:00I think you're spot-on about low wages contrib...I think you're spot-on about low wages contributing to a lack of diversity in the field.

If "The Flintstones" had been able to devise a story as interesting as its production values, it would have been some kind of wonderful. This is a great-looking movie, a triumph of set design and special effects, creating a fantasy world halfway between suburbia and a prehistoric cartoon. The frame is filled with delightful and inventive notions, all based on the idea that modern America might somehow be reconstructed out of rocks. Just watching it is fun.
Following the plot is not so much fun.
It's strange, the parts of the movie you'd think would have been the trickiest are the ones that work best. Led by John Goodman, the actors successfully impersonate the classic cartoon characters, and look and sound convincing. And the world they inhabit is just right.
But the story is confusing, not very funny, and kind of odd, given the target audience of younger children and their families. Do kids really care much about office politics, embezzlement, marital problems, difficulties with adoption, aptitude exams and mothers-in-law? John Goodman stands foursquare at the center of the story, as Fred Flintstone, a repository of good nature, insecurity, and rock-headed stubbornness. Nagged at home by his mother-in-law (Elizabeth Taylor, looking terrific), who spurs his wife Wilma (Elizabeth Perkins) to discontent, he is generally happy at work. But he keeps hearing how he should be bringing home a bigger paycheck.
His best friends are Barney and Betty Rubble (Rick Moranis and Rosie O'Donnell), who desperately hope to adopt a baby. When Fred is able to help them out, Barney repays him when an aptitude test is administered down at Slate & Company, where they both work. (Here, as elsewhere, there are lots of stone age jokes, as Fred chips his multiple-choice answers into a slab of stone with a chisel.) Not telling his friend, Barney substitutes his own answers for Fred's, and Fred wins a promotion to the head office, where boss Cliff Vandercave (Kyle MacLachlan) and his slinky secretary Miss Stone (Halle Berry) quickly see how they can use his stupidity to cheat the workers and embezzle company funds.
The plot is a too-laborious working out of all of those threads, none of which really generate much interest. A simpler story, involving human relationships and adventures instead of office shenanigans, would have been more interesting for kids, and probably for older audiences, too.
Still, there is a lot to praise here. The best way to describe the look of this movie is to say that the physical world of the cartoon series and the comic strip has been translated to live action with no compromise. The cars that run on foot-power, for example, look as clunky and heavy as in the original drawings, but somehow plausible, too (and there's a great early scene where the Flintstones motor out to the drive-in to see a movie "Tar Wars," of course). All sorts of consumer products and office equipment and supplies are reproduced in stone, and the costumes are a combo of caveman chic and suburban ready-to-wear. On the heels of "Jurassic Park," it's also fun to see a variety of prehistoric dinosaurs.
As I watched the movie, though, my attention strayed from the story to the settings. The plot was so artificially contrived and cobbledtogether that it didn't provide energy to the characters; they seemed stuck in it, reciting arbitrary dialog in the midst of a production that should have inspired more energy and excitement.
Maybe kids just plain won't mind; they'll disregard the story and enjoy the stone age gags. But "The Flintstones" does so well with the hard part of creating its world that it's a shame the earlier part - putting a story into it - doesn't measure up.

Yesterday afternoon, the Argentinean Hockey Confederation announced the list of 16 plus 2 players who will be representing the current World Champions and Champions Trophy holders at the Olympic Games.
The head coach of the Argentine women's team, Carlos Retegui, announced a list which sees veteran hockey superstar Luciana Aymar, who has already been designated as her country's flagbearer in the Olympic Opening Ceremony, lead a solid and experienced group of players, despite notable absences such as pregnant goalkeeper Belen Succi or discarded Soledad Garcia. Mechi Margalot who had been working on a comeback after years of absence and playing in a number of preparatory events over the last few months is notably absent from the final list.
However, only one of the player on the squad of 16 was not part of the team that won the Champions Trophy earlier this year, and nine of the players were on the squad that won the title at the 2010 World Cup in Rosario, confirming that this Argentine team is definitely good for a podium finish - and even a candidate for the very top, the only title that eludes seven time FIH Player of the Year Luciana Aymar, and quite possibly the logical next step for the team that took silver in Sydney and bronze in Athens and Beijing.
A fact drawing attention is that Carlos Retegui has chosen to include two goalkeepers in the core group of 16, allocating the P accreditations to outfield players Carla Dupuy and Julieta Franco - a move that is in stark contrast to the vast majority of teams participating in the Games. It is also worth remembering the fact that long time first goalkeeper Belen Succi only became unavailable a few months ago, consigning Argentina to taking two goalkeepers who have no more than a few handful of caps between them.
Olympic team: Luciana Aymar, Laura Del Colle (GK), Florencia Mutio (GK), Mariela Scarone, Silvina D´Elía, Noel Barrionuevo, Florencia Habif, Daniela Sruoga, Josefina Sruoga, Rosario Luchetti, Sofía Maccari, Carla Rebecchi, Delfina Merino, Macarena Rodríguez, Rocío Sánchez Moccia, Martina Cavallero
P accreditations: Carla Dupuy, Julieta Franco

Girl says mom tried to force her into abortion, 8/2/2000
By Editorial Staff
Published August 2, 2000
By Antigone Barton, Palm Beach Post Staff Writer
Grandma Glenda Dowis in court. How will she explain this to her grandchild in 15 years or so?
LAKE CLARKE SHORES — A Fort Pierce woman pointed a gun at her pregnant 16-year-old daughter's belly, drove her to a clinic and was arrested after saying if the girl didn't abort the child she'd "blow her brains out," police said.
When mother and daughter arrived at the Aware Woman Medical Center here shortly after 3 p.m. Tuesday, Glenda Diane Dowis told workers to perform the procedure although "my daughter may seem a bit teary," according to police.
Once alone with clinic workers, Brittany Dowis wrote on a medical form that her mother was forcing her to end her pregnancy. At about the same time, Glenda Dowis told a nurse in the waiting room, "If my daughter doesn't have this abortion, I'm going to blow her brains out." Clinic workers called police.
Police found a loaded .38-caliber Rossi Special in a briefcase on the back seat of Dowis' car.
The 67-mile trip to the clinic followed several days of arguing about the pregnancy, police said.
"The mother had been threatening to beat her until she miscarried," said Detective Michelle Ferrara, who interviewed the girl Tuesday. Brittany Dowis' father and stepfather — who had adopted her — are both dead, police said.
On Tuesday, the teen told police her mother phoned her from outside the house and said, "Today's the day."
Later, Brittany Dowis stepped into the hallway of the family's home and saw her mother pointing a gun at her stomach from about 3 feet away and saying she would kill her if she didn't have an abortion.
Glenda Dowis stopped to pick up a friend who was close to Brittany and the three drove in silence to Lake Clarke Shores, where Glenda Dowis had made an appointment for her daughter, Ferrara said.
"She was petrified," Ferrara said.
Brittany Dowis returned home to Fort Pierce with the family friend, Pamela Limberis, who supported Dowis' desire to continue her pregnancy, police said.
Glenda Dowis, 42, of 300 Deerwood Lane, faces charges of false imprisonment and domestic abuse and was booked into the Palm Beach County jail Tuesday night without bail.
Brittany Dowis told police her mother kept the gun under the front seat of the car during the drive but she saw her mother put it in her purse when they arrived at the clinic at 1497 Forest Hill Blvd. Police said Glenda Dowis may have returned the gun to the car after she brought her daughter into the building.
"What would you do if your daughter was pregnant and wouldn't have an abortion?" Ferrara said Dowis asked her.
"You're asking the wrong person," Ferrara said she told Dowis. "I was pregnant when I was 15." Her daughter is 15 now, she said.
Last year, the state legislature passed a law contemplating a different scenario: when a teenager wants an abortion that the parents may not support. The law, which required doctors to notify parents before performing the procedure, was struck down in May by a judge who ruled it violated the child's right to privacy.
"We should be looking at ways to keep families from reaching such a tragic place," said Lillian Tamayo, CEO for Planned Parenthood of Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast. Ultimately, Tamayo said Tuesday, "It is in the purview of the young woman to make the choice for herself."
The disturbance was unusual for the clinic, Lake Clarke Shores Police Chief Wes Smith said.
"We've had to arrest people in the past for picketing and blocking the entrance but it's been quiet lately," Smith said.
Robbi Altschuler, a nurse practitioner at the clinic, said, "We have a few women who pray the rosary out front, every once in a while."

The Real Jesus: A Defense of the Historicity and Divinity of Christ (DVD)
Who is the Real Jesus?
Ever since the dawn of modern rationalism, skeptics have sought to use textual criticism, archeology and historical reconstructions to uncover the "historical Jesus" — a wise teacher who said many wonderful things, but fulfilled no prophecies, performed no miracles and certainly did not rise from the dead in triumph over sin.
Over the past 100 years, however, startling discoveries in biblical archeology and scholarship have all but vanquished the faulty assumptions of these doubting modernists. Regrettably, these discoveries have often been ignored by the skeptics as well as by the popular media. As a result, the liberal view still holds sway in universities and impacts the culture and even much of the church.
The Real Jesus explodes the myths of these critics and the movies, books and television programs that have popularized their views. Presented in ten parts — perfect for individual, family and classroom study — viewers will be challenged to go deeper in their knowledge of Christ in order to be able to defend their faith and present the truth to a skeptical modern world – that the Jesus of the Gospels is the Jesus of history — "the same yesterday, today and forever" (Hebrews 13:8). He is the real Jesus.
Speakers include: George Grant, Ted Baehr, Stephen Mansfield, Raymond Ortlund, Phil Kayser, David Lutzweiler, Jay Grimstead, J.P. Holding, and Eric Holmberg.
Ten parts, over two hours of instruction!

The Four Keys to the Millennium (Book)
Foundations in Biblical Eschatology
By Jay Rogers, Larry Waugh, Rodney Stortz, Joseph Meiring. High quality paperback, 167 pages.
All Christians believe that their great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will one day return. Although we cannot know the exact time of His return, what exactly did Jesus mean when he spoke of the signs of His coming (Mat. 24)? How are we to interpret the prophecies in Isaiah regarding the time when "the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea" (Isa. 11:19)? Should we expect a time of great tribulation and apostasy or revival and reformation before the Lord returns? Is the devil bound now, and are the saints reigning with Christ? Did you know that there are four hermeneutical approaches to the book of Daniel and Revelation?
These and many more questions are dealt with by four authors as they present the four views on the millennium. Each view is then critiqued by the other three authors.

The Beast of Revelation: Identified (DVD)
Who is the dreaded beast of Revelation?
Now at last, a plausible candidate for this personification of evil incarnate has been identified (or re-identified). Ken Gentry's insightful analysis of scripture and history is likely to revolutionize your understanding of the book of Revelation — and even more importantly — amplify and energize your entire Christian worldview!
Historical footage and other graphics are used to illustrate the lecture Dr. Gentry presented at the 1999 Ligonier Conference in Orlando, Florida. It is followed by a one-hour question and answer session addressing the key concerns and objections typically raised in response to his position. This presentation also features an introduction that touches on not only the confusion and controversy surrounding this issue — but just why it may well be one of the most significant issues facing the Church today.
Ideal for group meetings, personal Bible study — for anyone who wants to understand the historical context of John's famous letter "… to the seven churches which are in Asia." (Revelation 1:4)

Timothy "Tim Dog" Blair just might make the America's Most Wanted list, if the following news report is true. With a list of crimes that would include defrauding the public, tax evasion, conspiracy, and neglecting to pay over $2 million in restitution to folks such as NBC Nightline star Esther Pilgrim, and others.
Check out the report below, then head on over to read Vice Magazine's in-depth investigation of the situation. There's a storm coming…..
I wouldn't call him a legend. sheister, con man, piece of shit….
Lol, Dre, Snoop, and Daz ended this guy in hip-hop, but this is funny. I hope it's true and that he gets away. Outlaws are society's last true saints. Tim Dog just might've pulled off in real life, what so many fiction writers have been claiming Tupac did, I wanna see the unusual, and for the regular guy to win over the authority, that would be divine justice.
