Mayor Eric Garcetti, in partnership with Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent John Deasy, JPMorgan Chase & Co., The California Endowment, and the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, have launched of the Los Angeles Summer of Learning program, a citywide initiative to keep youth engaged in learning this summer.
Los Angeles youth age 3 - 24 can access 100 valuable learning opportunities online and in person at City parks and libraries, LAUSD schools, and with museums and cultural institutions like the Getty Center and Aquarium of the Pacific. The curriculum will offer robust options in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (S.T.E.A.M.), as well as a work-readiness pathway geared towards the skills needed to succeed in the modern economy.
"LA Summer of Learning will transform Los Angeles into a 500-square-mile campus and provide learning opportunities for our youth when school is not in session," said Mayor Garcetti. "By connecting our students with creative, interactive and interest-driven learning opportunities, we will help our city's youth learn new skills and prepare to enter the workforce."
Upcoming learning opportunities in the Rancho Park area include Documentary Film at Venice Arts, the Getty Center Art Detective Badge program and the family Sundays program at LACMA.
"Learning happens everywhere, not only in the classroom," LAUSD Superintendent John Deasy said. "More than half of the achievement gap between lower- and higher-income youth is due to unequal access to summer learning opportunities. Thanks to the tremendous collaboration of our community partners, businesses, neighborhoods and city agencies, LA Summer of Learning will help increase access for youth, particularly in underserved neighborhoods. Together, we will make learning more visible to participants, parents, teachers, academic institutions, and potential employers."
The Los Angeles Summer of Learning brings…Continue

Head to Cheviot Hills Park on this Fourth of July to for a low-key, crowd-free celebration courtesy of the Hillcrest Country Club. You may have to be a member to golf there but the club's annual fireworks display lights up the Rancho Park sky for all to see. The best seats in the house are free - across the street at Cheviot Hills Park on Motor Ave, just south of Pico.
The fireworks begin at 9:00 pm but the fun starts earlier. You can bring picnics, blankets, sports equipment and your family and friends and enjoy the park before dark.

MONROE — The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission voted this afternoon to approve a cooperative plan between the State Parks and the Port Townsend Public Development Authority for management of Fort Worden State Park.
"It went perfectly," said PDA Executive Director Dave Robison said after the meeting.
"It was a unanimous 7 to 1 vote."
Robison traveled to the meeting with a delegation that included PDA board members Cindy Hill Finnie, Scott Wilson, Bill Brown, Gee Heckscher and Norm Tonina along with Port Townsend School of Woodworking director Tim Lawson.
The delegation spent the day before the meeting answering questions about the proposal from commissioners and staff, Robison said.
Now that the business plan has been approved, the parks staff will begin working with the public development authority to determine the details of the co-management agreement, such as the two organizations' respective responsibilities for maintenance of the park and as a learning center.

@Hammertownleaffan Don't be so hard on yourself. Blur up those lines a lil bit and people will be wondering how Cindy gets those antlers under the helmet.
@Burtonboy are those dots trying to cross some sort of road? Sorry, numbers and graphs ... brain is melted.
@Mcost61 @Cameron19 Hey dad .. dad .. hey dad .. look at me dad .. look at me! Look what I can do.
@wiski @TorontoMapleLeafs @Nylander88 Just ask him. Apparently he's right here.
@BrandonCheema the world!!!!!
said every Leaf fan of every leaf player ever.
@ConnorCrisp Are they saluting anyone?
@wendelsfist @Burtonboy We all know what sort of salute that will be.
@docmma @Reimocerous @Mcost61 lol Seigel - Kessel leaves practice early to avoid me. Why you no like me bro?
wow, I have been avoiding all sports since the last loss. The local radio station, which never even acknowledge that the Leafs played any given night was all over it after the 9-2 loss, laughing and joking. ugh. Then later in the day the local sports guy was hosting and he laughed and laughed and brought it up again, duringa news segment. ugh ...
Not a fan, primarily because of the salary and the restricted flexibility with contracts and cap. I also don't like percy sitting though. Send him down and bring up a guy like Macwilliam or something?
@dlb Mad @newkb Yeah important to keep in mind that the Tigers have a not so good list of prospects. It is certainly all relative. But I like the deal. We need a 2nd baseman and this is a step in that direction. Must be something else happning though. Are they banking on Pompey that much?
@Anthony Petrielli So he wasn't done before?
@Anthony Petrielli His smile has never been bigger.
@ingy56 @Yaknowwhat KInda awkward that he has that information.
@Cameron19 @Burtonboy @Reimocerous Announce that we are going with a 3 goalie system? One for each period of every game.
@Mind Bomb @Reimocerous lol was waiting for this.
@ProfessorRance @Reimocerous I knew it! Your pure speculation confirms my internal mind wanderings.
Was this discussed? Like regular surprises or awesome ones?
Scott Wheeler@scottcwheeler · 56 mins56 minutes ago
Dave Nonis is on TSN radio, just said there will be some some surprises when the roster moves are made tomorrow due to injuries/cap.

@Yan28 @MaxwellHowe @Jmessih Ladies and gentlemen, your leading scorer for the Toronto Maple Leafs ... Comic Book Guy. I'm sorry. I just can't help it. Just an awful picture.
@MaxwellHowe @Jmessih lol was thinking the same thing.
@gottabe_KD @philthethrill @T K O Agreed. Instead of just waiting at the door, ready to pounce. After the first loss it will be all razorblades and oceans of rage.
End of the world stuff folks. Seriously. Season has not even started and woe runs rampant in the streets. Gnashing of teeth and wringing of hands. I know, I know, to each his own. Well, I am pumped for hockey to be back and I am optimistic. Start of a new season and all that. :) Go Leafs!
@MaxwellHowe @Burtonboy Reimocerous.
@Jmessih @RandomScrub Just a little recognition.

@gottabe_KD @Yan28 or Masters?
@Xxxxxnew Weird is good. We're all some part weird. That'll always be part of discussion everywhere. Everywhere. Except where there are free cookies. But that just goes without sayin. MLHS. Take note.
Who cares what the MSM is saying? Honestly. Trying to drum up worry and angst and anger amongst fans. Most of its garbage and we know that. I get all my important and relevant reading on Leafs stuff right here. If someone tells me there is a good article elsewhere I might go read it but, everything is here. Everything. Except free cookies. Work on that MLHS.
@Burtonboy Easy as pie. yum
@Jmessih When I read that, I hear you saying he looks dreamy. I'm going to go get more coffee.

In this Expert's Corner video, infectious disease specialist Robert Finberg, MD, compares the incidence and dangers of flu versus Ebola in the United States—and urges everyone to get flu vaccines.
The Center for Collaborative Research in Fragile X at UMMS, with a $9.5 million NIH grant, will be led by Professor of Molecular Medicine Joel D. Richter, PhD. Fragile X is the most common form of inherited intellectual and developmental disability. It can affect one in about 4,000 males and one in about 6,000 females.
The number of sudden, unexplained infant deaths that may be attributable to an unsafe sleep environment are persistent in Massachusetts. In this Expert's Corner video, pediatrician Linda Sagor explains the dangers and how to keep babies sleeping safely.
UMass Worcester celebrated the start of the academic year with a week of Convocation 2014 events, recognizing faculty and students. This video highlights ceremonies honoring the achievements of the School of Medicine, Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences and Graduate School of Nursing, and captures Chancellor Collins' promise in his annual address of 'moments of exhilaration and success' for the academic medical center.
The Centers for Disease Control is warning of a spike in cases of a rare respiratory illness identified as enterovirus D68 that is sickening children in about a dozen states, though none have yet been reported in New England. Pediatrician Christina Hermos explains the symptoms and treatment in this Expert's Corner video.
Second-year medical students Elizabeth Rosen, Kathryn Bailey and Rachel Erdil started the Farm to Health Center Initiative in July, offering free vegetables and fruits to hundreds of families on Thursday mornings at the Worcester Family Health Center to help address the high level of food insecurity among patients.
In response to the outpouring of concern for her husband, Richard Sacra, MD, the third American doctor infected with Ebola in Liberia, Debbie Sacra expressed gratitude and hope at a press conference at UMass Medical School moments after the announcement that he was headed to Nebraska for treatment.
When news broke that Richard Sacra, MD, was the third American health care worker to contract Ebola while providing care in West Africa, his colleagues at UMass Medical School were heartsick but unsurprised that he had chosen to return to Liberia in the midst of a crisis that is overburdening an already fragile health care system.
The viral video "Ice Bucket Challenge" campaign is making ALS a household word across the country and shining a light on the scientists around the world searching for a cure. At UMass Medical School, Robert H. Brown Jr., DPhil, MD, one of the world's foremost authorities on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, heads a multi-disciplinary team of scientists researching treatments and a cure for the disease. In this video, he and colleagues discuss the groundbreaking research taking place here.
With deep ties to Liberia and its health care system, members of the UMass Medical School and UMass Memorial Health Care community have mobilized a broad coalition of partners to collect and ship life-saving protective medical equipment to health care partners in Liberia.

Bread-Who Loves Ya Baby ?
- Delucacheesemonger May 19, 2012 12:29 PM
Admittingly having too much time on my hands, l tried to figure out my favorite food group. It easily came down to bread, wine, and cheese, but then I surprised myself by picking bread as my number one.
Granted this category applies in the 70+ countries l have visited only to New York City, and most definitely to Paris. Here the number of bakeries for bread is staggering. One of the problems is the bakers change, the owners change, they get bought out, l change my standards, and a lot of other variables as well. Thus it seems my favs change almost yearly. l sort of like this as new quests make the visits even more enjoyable. The trip to the baguette winner a few years back on Rue Tristan Tzara in a driving rainstorm proves the point.
Right now my favorite piece of bread in the city that l have tried comes from Rodolphe Landemaine's bakery on Rue Roquette at the Voltaire metro stop. They list the loaf as 'Pain Voltaire' and it appears as a small pocketbook sized very, very dark exterior loaf which would cause significant damage if it came in contact with your skull and also has mostly holes in the interior. This is delightful as it is only two blocks from my flat. In addition my second favorite piece of Parisian bread is also there, their fougasse. looks like and has the texture of a malignant bagel. There are two other branches of Landemaine in the city, l assume they have the same loaf. Third prize is a tie between the ficelle at Grenier du Pain on Rue Abbesses in the 18th and the Le pain des Amis from Du Pain and Des Idees on Rue Yves Toudic in the 10th.
OK, there is my contribution, please add yours
Am also spoiled by the Pain des Martyrs from Landemaine rue des Martyrs and the ficelle from Grenier du Pain on Rue Abbesses, both up the street from chez moi. Let's get the Pain Martyrs tomorrow for our seafood orgy.
Off topic: We wandered into one of DCM's fave bakeries, that no one on earth talks about: Daniel Dupuy on rue Cadet, and tasted our fave croissant au beurre and pain au chcolat. Ever.
re: sistereurope
The vanilla croissant at Cafe Pouchkine is to die for. Not technically bread, but still amazing. Fantastic baguette from Granier du Pain in the 15th. Hot out of the oven every hour or so. Amazing.
re: karina_h
Just what l am looking for, thanks.
re: Delucacheesemonger
If you're heading out that way, might as well pick up his pain au seigle et miso rouge, which I thought was also pretty darn great.
re: karina_h
Great thread I loved Eric Kaizer's last trip brough a giaint ziplock and grabbed 12 loves just as he opened put loves in the ziplock (still warm so bread softened a bit) boxed it
and check a baggage. Reheated great..
l know things change here dramatically breadwise and quickly, but this is really ridiculous. My two favs at Landemaine have dramatically changed in the last two weeks. The fougasse is now half the size at a slightly reduced price thus the chew is entirely different, almost crunchy, not bad but no longer worth the trip. The 'Pain Voltaire' l raved about seems to be now baked at a lower temp for less time as a result the exterior no longer shatters when cut and the inside instead of being holey is now almost moist and dense, damn it, the search resumes.
re: Delucacheesemonger
Still stand by Du Pain et des Idees. Tried Poilane this past trip and was really disappointed..
re: sistereurope
Poilane tried earlier this month, was an old fan. Bread now seems to have far more white flour in recipe so bread is 'flabby' and uninteresting.
re: Delucacheesemonger
Poilâne dries very quickly for a levain bread, which I always found strange.
I am definitely not a fan of Arnaud Delmontel or of Gontran Cherrier, though he's a very nice fellow.
My favorite breads in Paris are Eric Kayser (but only on rue Monge), Grégoire (rue Monge), Dominique Saibron (place d'Alésia), Du Pain et des Idées, and the boulanger on corner boulevard Blanqui and rue Barrault.
I am generally not a fan of the over-chewy baguette de tradition française, which is anything but traditional (created circa 1995), but Kayser's original version of the genre is very nice. Also a baguette should be crispy (even when based on slow fermentation), which the modern "baguette tradition" rarely achieves. So they explain it by saying that chewiness is a basic feature of a true baguette and they think that makes it OK.
re: Ptipois
That is Bosson on Bd Blanqui and agree he is good for some things, his 'crumble' is awesome. Any suggestions for place with crust that can remove fillings when chewed?
re: Delucacheesemonger
Have you tried the breads from Veronique Mauclerc in the 19th?
re: Nancy S.
Cute little shop near the Laumiere metro, been a few times and the bread is just not my style, some pastry was though. Thanks for the thought.
re: Delucacheesemonger
We had a tour of the bakery and met the baker. I liked the levain. Also, we were told that they don't make the pastries or croissants in house.
re: Delucacheesemonger
Well, his pain de seigle auvergnat is likely to remove all of them.
re: sistereurope
I had a memorable "Pain des Amis" at Du Pain et des Idees the last time I was in Paris - really fantastic. Their chocolate croissants left something to be desired, though.
Where are your thoughts guys, thought l would have 300 posts by now. After reading Paris-by-Mouth's mention of Cherrier's chocolate and honey tart, thought it was time for a walk through the eighteenth for a few baguettes. First stopped at Mauvieux the 2012 winner of Paris best baguette then to the afforementioned Cherrier for the chocolate, honey, and walnut tart and his interesting baguette noir suggested by Karina_h on this thread, and stopping on Rue Abbesses for Grenier's ficelle, my all time favorite. Got everything back to the flat, let the Bordier come close to room temp. Here are MY opinions, not what is best, MY opinions. The ficelle still blew everything away, l have tried every finalist in the contest every year plus many more and that is my fav, hands down. Mauvieux was fine but lacked the essential chew l seek. The surprise was the black baguette, looked like it was made out of tar yet had a great chew and was a very worthy product. Would be neat to bring as a gift to a dinner where it would get lots of odd looks. As to the tart, very well-made but too sweet for me, too much chocolate in relation to the amount of walnuts, caramel in place of some chocolate would make me happier.
Come on let's get more opinions out there, please
re: Delucacheesemonger
DCM, re Genier, I'm sure this has been addressed before, but do you get the same product at each outlet or is the ficelle better at the Abbesses location?
re: mangeur
It seems all their products vary at different locations, as well as some locations do not even carry the same products. l go to four different Le Grenier a Pain. My neighborhood across the street from Place Aligre has a decent kouign amann, the one on Bd Italie has a decent ficelle, and the one on the street leading to Marche St Quentin from Gare de L'Est, doesn't even have those products. But the one on Rue Abbesses, as difficult it is for me to get there ( three metro lines and a walk ) still is consistently perfect, kouign only on weekends.
Every time l go to an establishment l love, l go with trepidation as they always change, this spot does not change. l probably have just jinxed myself by mentioning this.
re: Delucacheesemonger
Well, I hope it continues, because I have it on my short list for October!
re: ChefJune
I have a request, I use to looove the little pain au lait sandwich I use to found years ago in the 8eme... I will cross town if necessary, usually when I stop in Paris I am staying in Pont Louis. Many thanks!!
re: Ninisix
The 8e is a big place... Where was that?
re: Ptipois
In the rue Marboeuf, the Boulangerie was on a corner, and has closed !! The 'pain au lait sandwich' was like a miniature hand size ham and cheese sandwich, classic and true simple taste ! I just can't forget about it !!
re: Delucacheesemonger
Glad to hear you liked the baguette noir! My husband and I had a little picnic at Place Dalida, just ripping off the baguette noir little by little, and it certainly got its fair share off odd looks from the people walking past. My husband said it reminded him of Venom from Spiderman.
I wish I could give you more recs. The only other bread that made an impression was the rolls we had at Spring, which a staff member informed me was sourced from Boulangerie Julien just down the road from them on Rue St Honore. However, it was also the first decent thing we ate after a 30+hour flight from Australia, so my tastebuds were probably not to be trusted.
re: karina_h
Julien on St Honore still makes my baguette of choice.
re: Delucacheesemonger
Gosselin on r. St. Honore has been my baguette of choice. I will compare with Julien.
re: Nancy S.
Different styles, Julien is chewy, Gosselin is far puffier and more gentle.
Apparently the 'experiment' with the smaller fougasse at Landemaine has ended and they are back to the old, simply wonderful one, only on weekends.

Most people don't understand that it is practically impossible to stay in it even 45 minutes. At -9 decibels sound is literally being sucked out of the air.

Without visual stimulation, you also hallucinate. If you stare at yourself in the mirror in a dimly lit room, you will hallucinate and see terrible things within 10 minutes. All the participants who did this in a psychological study experienced these hallucinations.

Despite it saying you go mad, it would be really interesting to try, its pretty much a sensory overload as far as I can tell.
I just don't see what's so bad about hearing your own breathing/heartbeat/bloodflow....I guess it would sound gross, but thats about it.

It's a Christmas Party at the Gorgas last night on The Real Housewives of New Jersey, and according to Melissa's sister, panties are optional.
Enough said. Let's recap the festivities with THG's +/- review!
We'll start with pre-party planning. It sounds like Joe Guidice has a DUI conviction, then was driving while suspended for the DUI for which he spent 10 days in jail.
He's being sued for fraud and is in the middle of very public and messy bankruptcy proceedings plus other legal issues that haven't been discussed on the show.
It's a life I wouldn't want to have any part of but Plus 10 for keeping it interesting.
Ashley has a birthday with all of her family and friends only the girl can't seem to stop texting. Your friends are sitting right next to you. Who are you texting? Minus 7 for incredibly rude behavior. At her age, she should know better.
The brand new Jeep Wrangler is Ashley's birthday present. Supposedly she's going to be picking up the $500 a month payments soon. I really wonder if she's being set up to fail with this.
I doubt her internship pays very much (most don't). I know she lives at home for free but between the car payment, insurance (not cheap in Jersey), plus commuting and fuel costs this could get pricey.

YOUNCE 1312 Marsh Trail Cir NE Atlanta, GA 30328 Phone: 404-510-2585 email@example.com SUMMARY Senior SAP Business Analyst with project management and technical SAP development experience. Project experience includes four full life-cycle implementations including two fortune 500 companies. SAP design to realization experience encompasses the service, manufacturing, beverage, and automotive industries. EXPERIENCE Coca Cola Enterprises Senior Business Analyst Atlanta, GA May 2007 to Present SAP SD experience: o Developed an inter-company billing solution to process sales transactions within a single company code o Developed a PM (plant maintenance) prototype and demonstrated the functionality to business users. Configuration included the creation of maintenance orders, task lists, purchase orders for replacement parts, and inbound delivery schedules (CCE full service division includes vending machines and fountain equipment which required this functionality) o Developed a QM (quality management) prototype and demonstrated the functionality to business users. (plastic, aluminum, and glass materials are maintained with a status which restrict them from completing a full production cycle if they fail QC inspection) o Proto-typed a rebate management solution using SAP extended rebate functionality. The business process required the ability to settle accruals based upon original rebate agreements where the recipient could be an individual customer or a group of customers within a hierarchy. Participation of materials for a rebate agreement also could be determined by either an individual material number, or by being assigned to a hierarchy node or material group maintained on a condition record for an agreement. o Developed and presented an SAP solution to facilitate indirect sales. Utilized SAP pendulum list functionality to post accruals for indirect sales to an end customer that received product from a wholesaler o Corrected copy control and pricing procedure configuration before CCE's first roll-out of the SAP SD module for the Netherlands o Configuration of the SAP SD module for European roll-out includes: sales, delivery, and billing document types, pricing procedure determination, account determination, item category determination, copy control procedures, price lists, partner determination, material eligibility, condition inclusion and exclusion, and inter-company sales SAP Vistex experience: o Designed, developed, and in process of rolling out a rebate management solution utilizing Vistex for a full life cycle implementation at Coca Cola CCE o Developed a flexible accrual/settlement procedure for rebates where an individual customer or multiple customers within a hierarchy or other grouping method can be eligible to participate in a sales deal o Developed a flexible solution for handling rebate eligibility for materials based either on a material number, an attribute within their master records, or grouped within a hierarchy o Developed condition search procedures to determine eligible agreements during the creation of IP (accrual) documents o Developed Vistex pricing procedures (Std. SAP sales deals) to apply correct rebate rates from an agreement, when a billing document meets its organizational, customer, and material eligibility requirements. The rate passed from the agreement is then used to calculate an accrual amount o Developed requirement and condition value routines to determine and apply settlement amounts to eligible recipients o Enhanced multiple BADI's to bypass organizational, customer, and material eligibility determination and also bypass standard pricing procedure determination when converting legacy invoice information o Mapped, coded, and tested conversion procedures for claim requests, accrual lines, agreements, and IP documents o Configured claim, agreement, and IP document types o Configured deployment codes, components, sub- components, and calculation run types via composite IP within the implementation guide o Prototyped formula functionality for tracking participant performance against agreements, also used for tracking accrual and settlement amounts for current and prior periods o Designed and developed ADM retroactive functionality to re-price IP documents when changes occur to an agreement. Changes to organizational, customer, and material eligibility condition records as well as changes to rates on an agreement all trigger the retroactive re-price of IP documents o Designed and developed ADM retroactive functionality to trigger the re-pricing of IP documents when changes are made to a customer hierarchy, pre-defined attributes of a customer master record, or pre-defined attributes of a material master record which had previously included or excluded their eligibility to participate in a rebate agreement o Created info structures to capture claim and IP document information for use in the calculation of accrual and settlement amounts as well as for use in the retroactive process o Other Vistex configuration includes: condition type groups, price sheets, and index based pricing, incompletion and duplication procedures for claim documents, account determination for accrual and settlement postings Hyundai Motors Ame rica SAP SD/PP Business Analyst Montgomery, AL March 2005 to May 2007 Developed Hyundai Motors America SAP SD/PP solutions Developed an SAP SD warranty solution to handle claims from customers and reclaims between Hyundai and their suppliers.

Auto warranty functionality Developed process improvements to effectively handle the payment of approved warranty claims to customers, and charges to the vendors of defective parts Developed an SOP (Sales and Operations Planning) process to manage after sales parts allowing the business to forecast production and logistical needs to provide materials to vendors Developed a sales and support process for Hyundai's Puerto Rico sales center utilizing standard SAP SD along with custom development which required a down payment to trigger vehicle production planning via MRP Provided assistance to Hyundai IT support department in the event a system issue that could halt production occurred Configured an LSMW to re-create vehicle master files after a super user mistakenly deleted them in the production environment Meadowcraft Inc. SAP Business Analyst Birmingham, AL August 2004 to March 2005 Developed SAP MRP as a solution to replace a pre-existing raw material order process. The new system eliminated the use of Excel spreadsheets for forecasting and the manual creation of SAP purchase orders which controlled the raw material inventory within the WIP (work in process) department Configured SAP PP reporting points (back-flush locations) which would trigger the generation of production orders for a semi- finished material after a specific lot size of that same semi- finished product had passed through the last production stage for the reporting point. The production orders generated demanded that more semi- finished materials be produced for a reporting point in order to meet the demand for the production of the next level semi- finished or last level finished product Improved sales department efficiency for by developing an order management solution which utilized SAP SD scheduling agreements that ensured end customers would receive the finished products they required on time. The use of scheduling agreements streamlined the production and raw material ordering process by feeding MRP information that it would use to schedule specific quantities of semi- finished and finished products to be produced based on true customer demand Configured output determination procedures to use EDI, Fax, and email to receive and process customer orders Developed a WM light solution to track finished products for an order to a specific "static" location within the delivery staging area Re-worked training materials for the SD, MM, PP, and WM process Provided training to super users and end users that would access the SAP system to perform their day to day activities CRH North Ame rica SAP Project Manager/Business Analyst Clanton, AL March 2002 to August 2004 Provided an SAP analytical and project management skill set required by C.

StoryCorps partners with WGVU for West Michigan visit
Patrick Center
August 11, 2014 | WGVU
"Do you want to come on in? OK, let's go."
Once inside StoryCorps iconic silver airstream trailer, you realize this is a rolling, state of the art recording studio. Pleasantly lit, comfortable, there are two microphones and a table.
"So as you can see this is where our participants sit. Our facilitator sits off to the side here to witness the conversation."
"StoryCorps is all about every voice matters. Every story matters. And so we want people to either come to the booth and sit down with a loved one and tell their story or we want people to recommend other people to come to the booth to tell their stories. And most importantly, we want you to listen and hear the stories that we're broadcasting that are excerpted from those interviews."
That's Robin Sparkman, CEO of StoryCorps.
"StoryCorps is also a social justice organization and so we make sure that half of our interview spots go to underrepresented groups and we take a lot of care in making sure that the stories we broadcast on air reflect the diversity of the American society."
StoryCorps will be in Grand Rapids from August 8 - September 5th. The Grand Rapids Mobile Tour stop is made possible by WGVU Public Media and in part through the generous support of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.

Candidates appeal to residential group
Date: February 21, 2013
by: Alex Mahadevan | News Editor
More than 50 people filed into the Waldemere Fire Station for the Tuesday night forum, while a controversial Walmart appeal took place on the other side of Sarasota at City Hall.
Sarasota City Commission candidate Pete Theisen began the Arlington Park Neighborhood Association candidate forum with attacks on opponents Richard Dorfman and Kelvin Lumpkin.
Theisen, who lost the 2011 election for the City Commission with 1% of the votes cast and the 2009 election with 7% of votes cast, called Dorfman an outsider and said that Lumpkin, a pastor at Light of the World International Church, "made a deal with the devil for campaign support."
"After Pete's introduction of my background and skill set I'm not sure of what I could possibly add," Dorfman joked.
Sarasota Military Academy cadet Powell Stone, an 18-year-old teacher's assistant in the speech and debate class at the SMA, moderated the forum. Robert Atwell stood in for his wife, Mayor Suzanne Atwell, who was at the City Commission meeting.
"It's nice to get a fresh view on everything," said Stone, a North Port resident.
Candidates used the word "balance" more than 30 times — mostly to describe the relationship between neighborhoods and new development.
Dorfman and Lumpkin said expanding the tax roll with new development and finding efficiencies within the Sarasota Police Department budget are keys in reducing the city's deficit.
Lumpkin suggested a credit for police officers to live within city limits.
"I don't think we can tax our way out, and I don't think we can continue to cut services," Lumpkin said.
Linda Holland echoed the sentiment, but specified the sparsely developed Rosemary District as an opportunity.
"I think that's an area where the youth and arts-and-culture generators can all come together," Holland said.
Current City of Sarasota Planning Board Commissioner Susan Chapman said she supported economic gardening. The economic development tool, which Littleton, Colo., developed in the late 1980s, aims to equip companies past their start-up phase with marketing and finance tools.
That's opposed to offering economic incentives, such as tax breaks or low-interest loans, to lure firms from outside the region.
"Land development isn't the only economic-development tool, and we need to be aware that's true," Chapman said.
The Walmart appeal continued for more than two hours after the candidate forum ended before 9 p.m.
"I think the candidates behaved themselves," said Arlington Park Neighborhood Association President Rick Farmer after the forum.
Talking points
Sarasota City Commission candidates agreed the city's fiscal crisis is one of the most important issues of the next year, but they disagree on how to alleviate it. They did agree that it hinges on a pension agreement with the Florida Police Benevolent Association.
"I think (the Rosemary District) is an area where the youth and arts-and-culture generators can all come together."
— Linda Holland
"Sooner or later this city, this county and other municipalities are going to have to face tax increases." — Robert Atwell, on behalf of his wife, Mayor Suzanne Atwell
"I think I'm one of the candidates who puts it on the line — keeping the neighborhoods safe from predators — white-collar predators — and the other kind." — Pete Theisen
"Land development isn't the only economic development tool and we need to be aware of that's true." — Susan Chapman
"Unless we come up with ways to embrace bringing in business, we have to really look at the issues that keep business away."
— Richard Dorfman
"We've got to make sure the world knows the city's a safe place." — Kelvin Lumpkin

East County - SMR acquires full ownership of Main Street
Date: January 8, 2010
by: Pam Eubanks | News Editor
Lakewood Ranch developer Schroeder-Manatee Ranch today announced it has acquired Casto Lifestyle Properties' stake in the Lakewood Ranch Main Street project.
The companies have been joint venture partners since beginning the project in 2002. The retail center opened to the public in late 2005.
"SMR's control of the ownership and management responsibility underscores SMR's commitment to the project and also enhances our ability to shape the direction of this important component of our rapidly growing community," SMR President Rex Jensen said in a press release. "We are excited about the future growth of Main Street as it evolves into a family-oriented entertainment and retail destination for all of the East County area."
Jensen said SMR and Casto have been working on the deal for the last six to eight months, but negotiations escalated recently so the companies could close the deal before Jan. 1.
Main Street, which developers call the "heart" of the community, includes 158,000 square feet of mixed-uses, including restaurants, retail and office space and residential condominiums.
For a complete story, see The East County Observer's Jan. 14 issue.
