"Where wine is cheaper than water."
Neapolitan thin-crust pizza. Small plates menu. True Italian vibe. No wonder Chicagoans have fallen in love with this Italian restaurant and wine bar. Quartino Executive Chef/Managing Partner John Coletta has taken the best that Italy has to offer and compiled a menu that transports diners to Italy. With pastas, cured meats and cheese made from scratch, delicious wine from Italy and a check average that's arguably the best value in town, I had to find out more about the mind behind this dynamic dining experience that attracts 10,000 to 20,000 customers a week.
You have a passion for the restaurant business. How'd you get into it?
The first step was learning to cook from my mother and father. But my passion for food and wine was catapulted forward when I apprenticed at the Waldorf Astoria in New York.
The wine/food at Quartino is so affordable.
Here's the secret (laughs). We're in Italy three or four times a year, meeting with producers and bringing in wines directly. We source them, taste them and arrange to make financial commitments on quantity. On the food side, we make pasta, artisanal salumi (Italian cured meats), cheese, et cetera, in-house so we don't have to charge $50 for a plate of salumi.
Best professional advice you've received?
I'll never forget. I was a young apprentice at the Waldorf Astoria. It was a Sunday and we were eating at the chef's table. Around this table was this illustrious group of chefs from all around the world, talking about how you need to apply the same enthusiasm and focus to 'grand cuisine' as you do to everyday food. They said, 'In the best of times you eat foie gras, caviar and lobster and drink Champagne; in challenging times you eat pasta and pizza and drink Prosecco. All of them have their own significance and importance.'
Favorite hidden dining gem?
Spacca Napoli. Jonathan [Goldsmith] is brilliant. And the best part is he's not Italian. But eating the pizza, you close your eyes and feel like you're in Naples.
Greatest extravagance?
In 1995, I purchased a limited edition cookbook – Auberge de l'Ill by Paul Haeberlin, Jean-Pierre Haeberlin and Marc Haeberlin. It's number 542 with only 1,200 copies printed worldwide – the story of two Alsatian brothers who built a culinary monument in Alsace, France. The recipes are detailed and disclose the coveted secrets to their unique cuisine. The cost of the book was excessive; I'm embarrassed to mention the price, however, I'll say I paid more than $1,000. I never had the opportunity to work at Auberge de l'Ill and wanted to know how to make the infamous salmon soufflé. Now I know!
Who's the greatest love of your life?
My wife of 28 years, Jenifer, and our two children Olivia and Christian. Jenifer has supported, encouraged, advised and – in many instances – disagreed with family and career directions I've taken. She's a wonderful wife and mother. She guides the lives of our children while allowing them to flourish into there unique yet diverse personalities. The life of a passionate chef is filled with many challenges, always embraced by Jenifer, allowing for a seamless experience and conclusion. The support exercised by Jenifer has allowed me to evolve and develop. Her insight is flawless.
Your greatest achievement?
I've had many personal and professional achievements. It's very difficult to say which is my absolute greatest achievement without discounting others. They've all been rooted in a deep passion, focus and determination to succeed. I also believe my greatest achievement hasn't been achieved yet.
Share your most marked characteristic.
Since age 15, I've been consumed by a curiosity for food. I have an insatiable desire to seek greater knowledge, pleasure and surprise in cooking.
Last but not least, favorite cookbook?
La Mia Nuova Grande Cucina Italiana by Gualtiero Marches (1980). Although it's dedicated to new approaches to the Italian kitchen, the strong roots and fiber of the Italian kitchen are never compromised.
You know our favorite cookbook? 250 True Italian Pasta Dishes by John Coletta.

From Sound & Video Contractor magazine, this is the SVC Podcast Show 56 Part 2 with Jack Conners of Perfect World Studios. Show notes for the podcast are available on the web site of Sound & Video Contractor Magazine at svconline.com.
The Immaculate Conception Church in Traverse City, Mich., needed an unattended sound system and gear that virtually disappeared into the sanctuary. Jack Conners is back to tell us about the mics, the mixer, and the choir reinforcements set up for the church by Perfect World Studios. Coming right up on the SVC Podcast.
SVC: Jack Conners from Perfect World Studios, thanks for being back for part 2 on the SVC Podcast and we were talking about the Immaculate Conception Church in Traverse City, Mich. We were saying that it doesn't have to be a huge layout but this is something like a 300 seat sanctuary?
Jack Conners: Yeah.
Yeah, but you can still come up with some acoustic problems especially when you have to position equipment where they want a certain look for the place. We didn't get into the more nuts and bolts aspect of this, but what would you say was the most difficult part of the installation there? Was it running cable or mounting speakers or what?
It was actually getting the cabling to the speakers. I fortunately had the assistance of the director of maintenance at the church, Randy O'Connor—no relation to me but maybe back in Ireland—but he was very helpful in getting the cabling to the speakers. These were powered arrays so we had to run AC cabling to them and then Cat-5 and then audio. The church building is stucco, but it has steel beams and concrete block behind the stucco. He had some drawings of the building, which unfortunately didn't really show where the steel beams were. We found that they were almost right behind where we wanted to mount the speakers, but we were able to drill kind of at an angle and drilled a hole back through the block and then found a path back into the attic of the church and then he was able to crawl up in there and push the wires through, so once we got the wiring, the rest of it was pretty easy. The equipment was already back in the sacristy, so we ran the wires from there up to the speaker locations and then mounting the speakers on the wall was fairly easy. It was just put the brackets up and set them up there. [Timestamp: 2:30]
And then once you start the cutting and drilling and they hear the drills and saws going—that's when the church clients start getting a little nervous.
Yeah, they do. They kind of kept away while we were doing that. It was pretty loud with the hammer drill drilling into the concrete. [Timestamp: 2:47]
And they do have RF mics there. What make and model of wireless mics did you put in and did you have any RF issues to deal with?
No RF issues. We have had some issue with the choir mics we had strung from the ceiling, and I guess the length of the wire on those were just right to pick up a certain air craft frequency and there was a landing that happened every day at around 12:10 in the afternoon and that pilot's radio would come in over those microphones, but with some RF filtering, we got that out. But the mics, they had were Audio-Technica lapel mics, lavaliere mics, and we replaced those with Audio-Technica BP892 MicroSets, which are head worn sub-miniature microphone. Those work a lot better because they get the microphone up near the speaker's face where it should be and then we also have a lot less problem with the rustling and the issues with the robes and stuff with the lavaliere mics. Those were a big improvement putting in the Audio-Technica MicroSet mics. [Timestamp: 3:56]
Yeah, that's great if you can get them to do that. Sometimes that's tough to get the priests to go with those. They don't want to look like air traffic controllers, but the audio people just love it when they can persuade the pastor to go with a head-worn mic with the gain before feedback that it offers.
Yeah, there was some resistance to it for those reasons, but these are very small and they're base colored so when you are more than a few rows back you don't even notice them. [Timestamp: 4:23]
Like a little strand of linguini.
Yeah, uh huh.

A dip for the broccoli averse
"I do not like broccoli," President George H.W. Bush famously declared in 1990 in a New York Times story. "And I haven't liked it since I was a little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I'm president of the United States, and I'm not going to eat any more broccoli."
Barbara Bush was strong-minded enough to tell the White House chef to serve it to her husband anyway, according to The Washington Post. The president still hated it, but perhaps he never happened on the right recipe.
Dark-green vegetables such as broccoli supply loads of nutrients, including vitamins C and K and folate, as well as antioxidants and fiber, according to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (the new name for the American Dietetic Association), and should be part of a healthful diet.
If someone you love won't eat nutrient-rich broccoli, try disguising it in this guacamolelike dip.
Save the broccoli stalks, which are high in fiber. They are delicious when peeled and lightly sauteed.
Broccoli is typically steamed, which takes only 1 minute. In this slightly slower method, all of the water is absorbed by the broccoli, retaining its nutrients.
Serve as you would the guacamole way: with tortilla chips or atop tacos. It's also wonderful as a topping for baked potatoes.
Prep: 20 minutes
Cook: 5 minutes
Makes: 3 cups
1/4 cup water
2 cups broccoli florets, from about 2 stalks (save stems for another use)
2 tablespoons each: minced red onions, lime juice
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 avocados, pitted, peeled
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, tightly packed
2 plum tomatoes, seeded, diced
1 serrano pepper, seeded, minced
1. Put water and broccoli into a small saucepan. Cover with a tight-fitting lid; turn heat to medium. Cook until all the water is absorbed and florets turn dark green, about 5 minutes. Chop coarsely.
2. Combine the onion, lime juice and salt in a bowl. Add the avocado; coarsely mash with a potato masher or fork.
3. Finely chop the cilantro; stir into the avocado mixture, along with the broccoli, tomatoes and serrano.

Gills continues to operate another processing facility in a separate building from the plant that is temporarily closed, according to Philpott.
"They are running extra shifts, but orders are a bit behind," Philpott said. "Gills is working with customers to arrange deliveries and meet orders."
As of July 31, Philpott said the Gills processing facility remained closed while investigators still looked for the source of the contamination. The second facility continues to run extra shifts, but Philpott said gills is probably not meeting all of the demand for some retail and specialty product orders.
"Steve Gill has said it will take as long as it takes to resolve the problem," Philpott said.
Oxnard, Calif.-based Gillis voluntarily expanded the recall July 25 to include "all products processed in that facility and which may still be in the marketplace."
"We've identified the problem, and we are taking aggressive actions to prevent this from happening again," company president Steve Gill said in the recall notice.
The actions include forming a panel of food safety experts and microbiologists with expertise in listeria control; expanding required microbial surveillance and sanitation programs; and continued testing.
"They also have a team looking at possibly redesigning the facility," Philpott said."

A beginning eating guide to Siem Reap's Wat Bo Road
Not that long ago, Wat Bo Road was simply a detour that you might have quickly taken and just as quickly forgotten: a nowhere road to somewhere else. Today, it's buzzing.

I was about to buy the Kings of the Sea expansion too and then I read about the reprint with 3x of each card, so I decided to wait for it. However, I would like to have the Greyjoy resin card. ¿Will the card be available to buy alone, like the Martell and Baratheon ones, in the future or it will be safer to just grab one of the older packs that are still around?

While I'm a big fan of frozen peas, I hadn't found any fresh at the store where I live. I picked some up at Wegmans in Buffalo, N.Y., with high hopes that I could convince my husband to eat them. He's never been a fan of peas, so maybe it was because we're not used to fresh.
I think the idea of these is great, but they didn't turn out as I'd hoped. They were both under and over cooked, if that makes sense, with a bit of a crunch and a slightly plastic-y flavor to them.
The best thing I could think of to do is toss 'em in the blender with some sour cream and mint and celebrate the impending arrival of the London 2012 Olympics with tasty mushy peas.

Oral History Program Alta Roskelley Interviewed by Marci Farr 14 July 2008 Oral History Program Weber State University Stewart Library Ogden, Utah Alta Roskelley Interviewed by Marci Farr 14 July 2008 Copyright © 2009 by Weber State University, Stewart Library Mission Statement The Oral History Program of the Stewart Library was created to preserve the institutional history of Weber State University and the Davis, Ogden and Weber County communities. By conducting carefully researched, recorded, and transcribed interviews, the Oral History Program creates archival oral histories intended for the widest possible use. Interviews are conducted with the goal of eliciting from each participant a full and accurate account of events. The interviews are transcribed, edited for accuracy and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewees (as available), who are encouraged to augment or correct their spoken words. The reviewed and corrected transcripts are indexed, printed, and bound with photographs and illustrative materials as available. Archival copies are placed in Special Collections. The Stewart Library also houses the original recording so researchers can gain a sense of the interviewee's voice and intonations. Project Description The Dee School of Nursing was founded in 1910 to provide training for nurses who would staff the new Dee Memorial Hospital. The first class of eight nurses graduated from the school in 1913 and the school continued to operate until 1955, with a total of more than 700 graduates. A new nursing school and home located just east of the hospital was completed in 1917 and all nursing students were required to live in the home during their training. This oral history project was created to capture the memories of the school's alumni before their stories disappear in the same way the Dee Hospital has disappeared. The oral interviews focus on how the women became involved with the school, their experiences going through training, and how they used the training. ____________________________________ Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account. It reflects personal opinion offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ____________________________________ Rights Management Special Collections All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to the Stewart Library of Weber State University. No part of the manuscript may be published without the written permission of the University Librarian.

It was conducted July 14, 2008 and concerns her recollections and experiences with the Dee School of Nursing. The interviewer is Marci Farr. MF: This is Marci Farr. We are interviewing Alta Roskelley at her home. It is July 14, 2008. Alta could tell me a little bit about your early life and your family growing up? AR: I was born and raised in Smithfield, Utah. My father was a Japanese interpreter and field man for the Amalgamated Sugar Company. My mother was a homemaker, wonderful gardener and florist—very artistic. I had one older sister and three younger—one deceased at birth. My parents lived in Utah until 1942 when my father was transferred to Idaho. MF: That is wonderful. AR: I had a very normal childhood. I was taught to work. Many friends, neighborhood activities, ballet, music and church functions enriched my life. MF: That is good. Tell us about your early education and along with that your decision to become a nurse. How did you decide? AR: I attended elementary school and junior high school in Smithfield and graduated from North Cache High School at Richmond, Utah in 1931. I finished high school the same year as my older sister because I had skipped 7th grade. Because resources were not available for both of us to enter college in the fall of 1931, I was compelled to stay home while my sister continued her schooling. I did not have employment, nor did I really have any idea of what I wished to do, except try to keep up with my friends. My Uncle, Hazen B. Daines, MD, 2 was starting a practice in Smithfield and my mother offered my "free" services to help him with his office. There, in addition to cleaning the office, making appointments, answering the telephone, my Uncle taught me how to assist with medical procedures that could be done in the office. I fainted only one time. One day a man walked into the office for an appointment. In our conversation he said "You ought to be a nurse." I replied that was something I could never do because I could not stand the sight of bleeding. This started me thinking that it was perhaps a means of continuing my education and getting along with my life. The idea was discussed with Uncle Hazen, who endorsed the possibility. He had interned at the Thomas D. Dee hospital and knew the nursing school was accredited. With his help I applied and was accepted. MF: That is great. Did you have any contact with the members of the Dee family? Did you know Maude or any of them? AR: Not that I remember. I did know Elizabeth Stewart. She was a wonderful advocate and friend of the nurses. She sponsored many of the activities of the Dee nurses alumni. Our reunions and annual meetings were enhanced by this wonderful lady. MF: You just knew Elizabeth Stewart? AR: Yes. Elizabeth Stewart. MF: Was there anything that you had to do before you entered the Dee School of Nursing? AR: Only the application as I recall. We did have to have money for uniforms and perhaps some equipment. I know my Uncle gave me $40.00 to buy uniforms. I 3 was accepted for the July 1933 class without any problem that I recall. I had good grades in high school. The only thing I worried about was being so far away from home. I was very homesick the first year. MF: I am sure. That is hard. What was your first impression once you got into nurses training? Was it what you expected? AR: I had no idea what it was going to be like. Everything was completely foreign to me and it was hard for me to adjust to the routine, the surroundings and being confined. MF: That is true. You could not go any place you wanted, right? AR: No. MF: You could not leave. You had to do your shift and get in, right? AR: Yes. We were on duty for eight hours and then went to classes in between. MF: Did you take classes at the hospital or did you go to Weber College for them? AR: We took most of our classes at the hospital but we attended classes at Weber College as well. We would all put our capes on over our uniforms in the winter time and walk from the hospital to Weber College on 25th street. MF: Tell me about some of your classmates and your friends. AR: My roommate was Ortis Pettingill from Willard. We were together until my senior year when we moved to the cottage. Mary Virginia Anderson was my second roommate. Then we were split up. Verle Baker was another very close friend of mine. She graduated from high school the year after I did at North Cache. We had a very congenial class, a group that was very close. We had a lot of fun together. Inga Jensen was another one. There was June Lowe, Ione Lawrence, 4 Merle Williams, Alice White, Afton Grow, Vernell Hansen, Ronnie Stringham, and others. I had friendships from other classes as well. MF: Tell us about some of the teachers that you had, and your supervisors. You had mentioned a few of them. You knew Annie? AR: Yes, I knew Annie Hall. Other teachers and supervisors were Mrs. Ruth Mumford, Ann Gibbs, Louise Scoville, Miss Miller, Lucille Taylor, Ethelyn Johnson, and others. Annie Hall was in the surgical unit when I was there. I did not have a great deal of contact with her except in surgery. Surgery was one of my favorites. MF: Was it? AR: I always had this little story. Dr. Dumke used to do thyroidectomies. He was always complaining about something with this surgery. Of course, most of the physicians did if you did not work fast enough. He told me once, "You are the first nurse that knew when to give me the drain." MF: You were one step ahead of him so you could give it. AR: Well I learned the procedure I guess and he complimented me for that. He gave me a box of Whitman's chocolates I remember, which he did very frequently while I was in training. MF: That is great. You said your work schedule was seven to seven but you did your eight hours on and you had four hours for class. You had night duty, correct? AR: Well we had night duty but I had trouble with this assignment. I am a sleepy head. I would get sick every time I was assigned night duty; the first of which was the nursery after just 4 months of training at the Dee. 5 MF: Really? AR: I would get an infection or be ill and I just could not finish the term. Of course my classmates did not like that at all. They thought I was really something else. I finally made it through one term of nights in the 3 years I was there. MF: That you were not sick. AR: Yes, in three years. MF: Your body was trying to get used to that. AR: I could not seem to do it. I could not adjust. MF: Did you have a roommate? AR: Yes, one roommate. We had a very nice room. To begin with, when we were Probies,(on probation) we were in the basement in a dorm situation. Then we moved upstairs to a room. MF: After your probationary time. AR: Yes, after our probation. We really had a nice room and a nice area in the nurse's residence to receive our guests and to get together. MF: That is good. Do you remember across the street there was a gas station called…and there was a little confectionery store—Hogge's Confections? AR: That belonged to my Uncle, but with a different name. MF: Really? AR: My Uncle was Raymond Hendricks. I do not know whether he started the business but I know that he was the owner when I was in nursing school. He was married to my Aunt Laura. She died when I was a freshman, of a blood clot following an appendectomy. 6 MF: My friend Catherine Hogge and her husband Elmer; I do not know if they bought it from your Uncle. They must have. AR: Could have been. MF: They must have done that because I know that they took over. I do not know when it was, in the late 1930's. It might have been after you were gone. AR: It was after I left. Because my Uncle was still there when I graduated. MF: That is very interesting. AR: On our breaks, we would go over there, sit, have a drink and talk to them. My Aunt and Uncle lived right across the street from the nurses' home so I was over there every time I could get away. After my Aunt died, my Uncle married Cecille Wright before I graduated. Cecille was charge nurse on the medical floor my senior year. We are still very close even though they moved to California. My husband and I visited them many times before and after Ray died. Cecille is still living at 97 years but not well. MF: Is that the one you said was a supervisor? AR: Cecille Hendricks, yes. She was a charge nurse. MF: Tell me about your typical day, what responsibilities you had during the day when you were on your shift and then with your classes. AR: I remember that we had patient reports each day. We were assigned patients to take care of in all the different areas. Do you mean the procedures that we did? MF: Yes, what you had to do. You had to do your rounds, right? You had to do your records. 7 AR: Yes. We had to learn to print. We had to learn to chart and do it right and make it understandable. We took care of the assigned patients all during the time we were on duty. They would rotate us once in awhile to different floors. Sometimes you would get a pleasant patient and sometimes you would get an unpleasant one. MF: One that was ornery. AR: Yes. MF: During your training you became skilled in all areas of the hospital, is that correct? AR: Yes. We were required to spend a specified amount of time in each service. There is one thing I remember about maternity. Echo Berry was the supervisor. We had a little preemie born, who was about five months gestation as I recall. MF: Really? AR: Miss Berry wrapped it up with the instruments and I took it into the service room. When I was cleaning up I realized that the child was breathing. MF: Really? AR: Miss Berry immediately took the baby to the nursery but it did not live. It was a tiny, tiny fetus. I will never forget that experience. MF: I am sure that would be hard to witness that. What did you usually do on your day off or a night off? What did you do for fun? AR: We would get together. We had a lot of parties. There were always a lot of planned parties. One of the interesting things that happened during the time I was there. I cannot remember how many times. Lindquist's would bring their 8 hearses and take us up in the canyon for parties and outings. Everybody went all out to do what they could for the nurses' entertainment. MF: That is great. Did you have Lagoon days? AR: I do not remember that. MF: While you were in your training, what were some rules you had to follow? AR: Be on time. Follow the doctor's orders very carefully. Of course, we had supervision as we were being taught all the time that we were doing it. In the service rooms we had to clean the bedpans and we had to take care of all the beds and cleaning that was done after a patient was discharged. At the time, I thought it was very normal and it was at that time. We had to do all of the service work related to taking care of the patients. We did have orderlies who did heavy cleaning. MF: So you had cleaning plus nurses duty. AR: Yes. And they were very strict about that. If you did not do it we were punished in some way. We lost priveleges. MF: Did you have a curfew? AR: Oh yes. At ten o'clock. We had to be in by ten on week nights. Then we would have a late night… MF: For the weekend? AR: I do not remember exactly. I think it was not later than 11, maybe 12. MF: Yes. AR: If you wanted to go any place out of town you had to get special permission to do that. 9 MF: So you could not just leave? AR: We had to sign out and sign in. MF: It was pretty closed campus, right? AR: Yes. When I was a senior I wanted to go to a military ball in Logan and I had to get special permission to be out late. On returning, I had to sign in at the hospital with the night supervisor. MF: Were there any traditions at the Dee Hospital while you were in nurses training? AR: I do not remember any specific ones except capping exercise, Junior prom, and graduation. MF: That is ok. AR: One thing, we had to go to church. We had to report our attendance every Monday morning before going to our assigned duty for the day. MF: Yes, you were required? AR: Yes, we were required to go to church and we had to report on Monday morning whether or not we went with the roll call. MF: Did most of the nurses go? AR: I think we did more or less. I know I missed some church meetings and it was unpleasant to report No. MF: Yes. AR: I know I missed some. MF: Because you worked on Sundays. AR: Yes, also when I did not choose to attend. MF: What was your graduation ceremony like? Tell us a little bit about that. 10 AR: If I can remember it. I think we went down to the old tabernacle. MF: Yes. AR: As I recall, we dressed in our new uniforms and marched together to 22nd Street and Washington Boulevard for the graduation ceremony. My family attended. MF: So just off of 21st street? AR: Yes, but I do not remember for sure just where it was. It was quite an event. Of course, it was thrilling to get in a white uniform and have your cap, your stripe on your cap. MF: What about the capping or the pinning ceremony? Do you remember anything about that? AR: We received our nursing caps after probation at a church house North and West of the hospital—perhaps 21st St. and Monroe—I do not recall. MF: That is alright. What did you do after graduation? You said you were with public health. AR: About one month before I graduated LaVerna Peterson, supervisor in Public Health, had arranged an interview with me. I remember sitting in her sister's home which was not far from the hospital. She asked me if I would consider working in public health. I had wanted to do everything that I was working at. If I was on OB I wanted to do that. If I was in surgery I wanted to do that. Lab—I wanted to do that. I wanted to do everything except medical. I did not like medical. I was hired and after completing my requirements at the Dee, I started working the 1st of August 1936 in Cache Valley. MF: Did you spend your career doing that? 11 AR: Yes. I worked in Cache County for ten months. Then I was asked to go to school. I went to the University of Washington for one year and got my PHN certificate. After completing my school there, my fiance' came up and we were married in Tacoma, Washington and took an extended honeymoon before we came home. Then I came home and worked in Ogden from July 1, 1938 until about September of 1940. My husband, a reserve officer, had been called into the military. He had been gone for six months and his assignment had been extended, so I resigned and went to join him. MF: Where was he transferred to? AR: At that time he was in San Pedro, California. We traveled throughout the U.S. after that. I stayed with him all during the war, except for occasional separation due to special assignments. I taught Red Cross classes in several locations where we were stationed. MF: All during the war? AR: Yes. MF: When you got back did you continue with your nursing? AR: We had our 2 children during the war years. My husband was discharged from the Army in January of 1946. I worked in Layton, Utah at a Mexican labor camp clinic before moving to Richmond, Utah where my husband was employed by Pet Milk, and I relieved for vacations in Cache Valley. Then we moved to Buhl, Idaho, and I did not work for awhile. In 1953 I was asked to work as a school nurse. I did part-time school nursing for ten years. 12 Then we moved to Idaho Falls, Idaho. I started as a public health staff nurse there and then became supervisor and later Director of Physical Health for seven counties there. I retired there in 1979. We moved to Ogden in November of 1990 to be close to our daughter who lives in Bountiful. MF: Your first time in Ogden was on 25th street? You mentioned that. AR: I worked in a special public health demonstration program. I think I have an article about it. It included the Polk elementary school. MF: Is there an article? AR: I was assigned to a specific area to do a very generalized program. I think LaVerna was just experimenting to see how it would work. Then I helped set up a venereal disease clinic with Doctor Noall, city physician. MF: When did you retire from your career as a nurse? AR: 1979. I have an article about the retirement in here some place too. MF: What do you think was probably your greatest challenge being a nurse? AR: In training, it was night duty, which made me sick, and learning new procedures. In public health, it was a brand new field, and I had much to learn, and I didn't like home calls and dogs. When I began supervising, it was hard to find qualified staff, and the job required teaching public health principles. In supervision, the thing I liked the least was dealing with politics. MF: Did you get paid while in training? AR: While we were in nursing school I think we received seven dollars a month. That helped me to pay for breakage or to buy new instruments. MF: Oh—so if you broke something you had to pay for it. 13 AR: Yes. Or if we had to have some new bandage scissors or something like that, we had to pay for those things. MF: You said your education…you went to Washington and you said you were in Philadelphia too? AR: Yes, for three months. MF: So you just continued on and received specialized training, right? AR: Yes. I also spent 6 weeks at Bedford Styvesant in Brooklyn, New York for venereal disease and one month at University of Colorado Hospital for premature infant care. In public health, I had many week-long workshops from University of Washington, University of Utah, and many sponsored by the Idaho State Health Department to prepare me for supervision and Director of Physical Health. MF: What changes do you think have taken place over the years as far as from your training to now in the nursing field? AR: I do not know about the training any more except that people get degrees. That is one thing I always wanted to do but I was never in a place long enough or had the opportunity to take time from work. It was not convenient. There was no college around or university around. I did inquire several times as to how many credits I had had because I did have University of Washington and Pennsylvania credits but I did not have enough credits for my BS. That is one thing that I regret very much. MF: Sarah did you have anything you wanted to ask her? SL: I just wanted to know if you had any stories when you worked down at the VD Clinic. 14 AR: At the VD Clinic? Oh yes. One that I remember particularly is that the prostitutes—at least one or two of them—always said, "Please do not recognize me on the street." I was in uniform. We always wore uniforms at that time. If I was out on the street they did not want me to recognize or speak to them. Another time the madam was arrested because she had a positive test. They put her in jail. I went to interview her there and that was quite an experience. I do not remember the details but I just remember being there. SL: Was it Rose? AR: I really do not remember who it was. She was a very nice woman. She was very accepting of me and she was very cooperative. She was devastated. I do remember that. SL: How long did you work there? AR: I was only there after the clinic in the new Ogden City Hall opened and I cannot remember the date. I left in late September of 1940. It was interesting to talk with those young women. The minute they thought they were positive with the gonorrhea or other VD they left town. They would just disappear. SL: Did you work with any other doctors? Other than…I know you mentioned Zeke Dumke. AR: Oh yes. I liked a lot of the doctors. That was one other thing that was interesting to me in training. Although I wasn't used to being a "servant." MF: Yes. AR: We would help them on with their coats, walk behind them in the elevator. They would enter the elevator first—things like that. That was something that was very 15 foreign to me, plus one only answered questions, never offering comments inappropriately. I dated one of the interns and so did several of my roommates. One nurse married one of them. I had a good time. I had a good social life after the first year. I did not do anything the first year. I did not know anybody, was not interested in anybody, but I had some good friends and a lot of fun. SL: Were there a lot of girls that dropped out in your class? AR: There were quite a few. SL: Mostly for marriage reasons? AR: One of them got married while she was in nursing school. Of course, she was discharged. That was Rowena Stringham. She married a James. She did not finish when I did. She went back and finished later when it was allowed. I remember that there were two or three though who dropped out for reasons unknown to me. We started out with a fairly good class and then we ended up with 18 graduates. This picture will tell you. Most of us made it through. MF: That is good. AR: We had a good class. We had good teachers. The doctors taught a lot of our classes. I think the one I liked the least was "Materia Medica" because the pharmacist was teaching it in a very technical way. My lowest score on state boards was this subject. A lot of the girls in my class had to repeat their state boards because of that. MF: Did they dispense the medicines to you when you would go on your rounds or did you do it yourself? 16 AR: We had to prepare the doses ourselves unless it was just a tablet or pill. I kind of envy the nurses who are trained now because they get a degree and have a very general education. MF: Yes. AR: I certainly admire them and what they do—their knowledge. MF: Yes there is a lot to know. AR: Their specific training. Yes. MF: Yes it is. There is a lot to know. Well, I appreciate you taking time for Alta. AR: You are most welcome. MF: We appreciate your information and thank you for sharing your book with us. We appreciate that. Is that your pin? AR: Yes, that is my pin. MF: Is that what it looks like? AR: Yes. Somehow I do not know how we got our Red Cross pins—what we had to do to get that. I still have mine. It has to be turned back in when I die. MF: Really? AR: Yes. That is what somebody told me. MF: Wow. AR: There is our department registration. Let me put it in a folder for you. It will be easier to keep. MF: That was interesting to find out about the hospital and the history. AR: Oh yes. These are just cards. MF: That you have got. 17 AR: Yes. This is about our health day in Smithfield. We had fun. When I was a kid they had health day. We had to have 100% ok teeth. MF: Oh yes? AR: …in our schools and we would get a card. They invited me when I was working in Cache Valley to come and talk on one of the health days and that was fun. MF: That is great. Is this your nurses' picture? AR: Yes. MF: At your graduation? Do you care if we copy that? AR: Oh no. In fact I need to take that out and copy it because it is just newspaper and it will not last. Here. I want you to take this one too. MF: That would be great. SL: Did you say you had an article about the clinic? AR: Yes. Let me see if I can find it. Where did I put—I do not know if it is in there. I know I found it the other day. I thought I had a picture of it. A picture of the old… SL: You said that was in the city county building? AR: Yes, in the new one. I have got a picture of the building. There was a story about it. Well, let me look for just a little bit. MF: You are fine. AR: I thought I had put it in here. It would not be there, unless it is when I came back. That is the university. Here we are. This is the later one. This is when I was working in that special program. MF: Perfect. 18 AR: I think it tells a little bit about what I did but I do not know that I—did I have—oh "city physician called to duty […] doomed." I thought I read it in here some place. Oh "there is a program for tuberculosis and venereal disease. It is expected this program will be instrumental in raising the health standards of the Quincy District to the highest in the city." That is not what I…well, take it and use for whatever you want. MF: That will be great. AR: So I really do not have a great deal about that. I think I have just written about it. I do not know where it is. MF: That will be perfect. AR: But that was quite an experience for me. SL: I bet. AR: I will never forget that. SL: Did they come in to the clinic? AR: Yes. SL: Did you make any house calls? AR: They were required to come to the clinic every week. SL: Oh—every week? Not just even once a month. AR: Yes, and have an examination. SL: So this would have been before WWII. AR: Yes. You would not remember Doctor Barnes. MF: No. 19 AR: He was a character. He was practicing here in the area but he lived down in— oh, Layton or Kaysville or some place like that. He substituted for Doctor Noall one day. He said, "Those women have the cleanest interiors that I have ever seen. It looks to me like they have used a rotary brush." I suppose they would be exceptionally careful when they came in and tried to clean up as much as they could so they would not have a positive test. It was quite an experience for me because I was sort of a naïve kid. MF: Totally different world. AR: Yes. MF: Where did you meet your husband? AR: I married a Roskelley. And I was a Roskelley. MF: Yes, I read that. AR: We were related. MF: Yes. AR: He was Eunice Carn's brother. I met him when I was twelve at a family reunion. We got along really well but I did not ever see him after that until I came to Ogden. He was working here. He graduated from USU and came down here and started to work. I got acquainted with him. I did not go with him until 1934. MF: That is interesting. So you were a senior in the nurse's training, right? AR: Yes. MF: That is interesting. AR: We were married almost 69 years before he died. MF: Really? 20 AR: Yes. MF: That is great. AR: Well, you ladies are doing a great job. I loved my career in nursing. I have been most fortunate to experience many changes in the medical field and the part nurses played in the scenario. Many unexpected opportunities came my way. The Thomas D. Dee Nurses Association has been a continuing part of my life. I enjoyed being with my classmates and the friends made. I am one of very few to live to be well over 90 years of age (1914-20??). So much of my life was spent in Idaho but the nurses association has been a link through all my life. I served on a state board and as president of district associations in both Utah and Idaho. I love and admire the profession—especially the knowledge and expertise of nurses at this time.

Traci Hamilton, January program chairperson, introduced Lawson as someone who gives from the heart.
"She loves children and feels an extreme need to help those who are in need," Hamilton said.
Lawson's most recent effort to offer aid grew into DiaperLove of Bradley County. She witnessed the program in action while working in Knoxville and felt Bradley County could benefit likewise. Friends and associates encouraged her to run DiaperLove through The Caring Place on Wildwood Avenue.
"We purchase the diapers, or take donations, and we give them to The Caring Place," Lawson said. "The Caring Place screens families and disperses the diapers."
According to Lawson, on average a baby goes through 12 diapers a day. A toddler uses up to eight per day. She shared stories of mothers trying to make due without purchasing more. One baby's disposable diaper dragged along the ground due to a recent rinsing.
A DiaperLove fact sheet claimed 1 in 3 American moms struggle to afford diapers. Lawson said an adequate supply of diapers often costs over $100 a month. In addition, one in 20 struggling moms have cleaned out and reused wet or soiled disposable diapers. The effects of reusing diapers are both emotional and physical, according to Lawson.
There is a need in Bradley County for diapers, Lawson said. DiaperLove purchases the diapers at wholesale prices from local merchants and through national resources. Cleveland and Bradley County have also answered the call to donate for the cause.
Walker Valley High School, Cleveland High School and Bradley County High School competed against one another in a diaper drive. CHS won with 11,477 diapers. BCHS collected 1,152 diapers and Walker Valley gave 5,618 disposable diapers. Walker Valley later collected an additional 2,174 diapers for a total of 7,792.
Hamilton introduced the program in a one-minute speech at Cleveland's Rotary luncheon. Lawson later received a phone call that left her momentarily speechless.
"It was Dr. Fred Garmin. He said, 'I am with People for Care and Learning. I understand you have a program where you need diapers,'" Lawson recalled.
Continued Lawson, "And he said, 'I have a truckload of diapers for you.'"
There were 95,396 diapers in the tractor-trailer donated by PCL. Lawson said an additional 119,152 diapers were added by the nonprofit. She said they have plenty of sizes 1 through 4 in the DiaperLove offices.
Additional donations were made by Don Ledford and Cooke's Foodstore with 100 and 206 diapers respectively. Cooke's Foodstore also donated a check to buy wipes and additional supplies.
Lawson said the program is in need of sizes 5 and 6.
"My dream is to change lives one diaper at a time across the nation," Lawson said.
The board of directors include Brenda Lawson, Janey Cooke, Christy Griffith, Debbie Melton, Melissa Snyder, Evie West, Bernadette DePrez, Traci Hamilton, Sandra Rowland and Zandra Welch.
DiaperLove has greeted the new year by distributing 15,492 diapers in the first month. Donations are accepted and actively encouraged.

Oh yes, that is too good, 10 years on and not a single innings in the top 100, suck it up princesses.
My Youtube cricket channels, thousands of gold old videos
Before the ****storm, may I just clarify that Tendulkar has a number of very good innings rated between 10.00 and 16.00, probably more than any other batsman given his longevity; but no truly great innings that would get into the top 100.

"Neither of them will have an international cricket acareer past 2016."
Brocky on Martin Guptill and Ish Sodhi. 20/11/2014.
how much of a difference does the result of the game make?
Ponting 05 was robbed
Indians can't bowl - Where has the rumour come from as I myself and many indian friends arwe competent fast bowlers ?
With the English bid I said: Let us be brief. If you give back the Falkland Islands, which belong to us, you will get my vote. They then became sad and left
This is a serious request, albeit a huge ask, but any chance of naming the next 100 best innings, from 101 to 200? That would be very interesting to see, probably just as many great innings.
this is going to be amusing.
out of curiosity, how much did his fourth innings 100 against england in chennai in a winning cause score?
i know i am god. since when i pray i find i am talking to myself.
(massive apologies to barnes)
What's the rating for his 97 in this Test DoG? Good list btw.
Laxman's 167 at Sydney is rated too high IMO. The innings didn't achieve anything. Loss was written on the wall. Can't say if a batsman feels a lot f pressure when the outcome of the match is certain one way or the other.
RIP Phil Hughes. Forever 63*

The property owners called the department around 10:30 a.m. Saturday after finding a badly injured stray roaming their land.
According to Sheriff Kelvin Williams, this is the second time in the last few weeks an abandoned pit bull has appeared on the same property but it's unknown if the dogs originated from the same place.
The dog, found Saturday, was discovered with major injuries and could possibly be involved with an underground dogfighting ring.
A deputy arrived on scene and the property owner eventually transported the dog to the Animal Medical Clinic in Cleveland.
"We will continue to investigate this case and find out as many details as we can," said Williams. "If people know of any organized dogfighting going on, we urge the citizens to call us with information.
"We are not knowledgeable of anything in Bolivar County but if we learn about this activity, we will locate those involved and prosecute them to the fullest. This behavior will not be tolerated."
Clinic Dr. Allison Bradshaw, who was unavailable for comment before presstime, took in the pit bull on emergency notice.
Williams said the dog was alive when it was brought to the clinic, but the dog's injuries were so severe it needed to be put down.
"Again, we will not tolerate dogfighting," said Williams. "It is illegal and cruel and we do not condone it."
According to the Humane Society of the United States, dogfighting in Mississippi constitutes a felony punishable from 1-3 years and $1,000-$5,000 fine.
Spectators at a dogfight are also charged with a felony, maximum of one year imprisonment and a $500-$5,000 fine.
Possession of dogs for fighting is a felony, 1-3 year sentence and a $1,000-$5,000 fine.
The following conduct will also be punishable as it relates to dogfighting in Mississippi: sponsoring, conducting, staging or promoting a dog fight; betting or encouraging betting on a dog fight; owning a dog with the intent to enter it into a dog fight; and training or transporting a dog for a dog fight.
Contact the Bolivar County Sheriff's Department with tips, questions or concerns at 662-643-5378.

The 2014 Infiniti Q50 is completely redesigned for 2014...Read more
As Infiniti debuts its new Q/QX naming strategy, Q50 is the name you should remember. That's because the 2014 Infiniti Q50 is the replacement for the G37 sedan, which has been Infiniti's most popular model for several years. The G started off as an entry-level, front-wheel-drive sedan in the early '90s based on the staid Nissan Primera, but everything changed in 2003 when Infiniti introduced the G35 to much fanfare among the press. One of the first legitimate Japanese competitors to BMW's vaunted 3 Series, the G35 was a rear-wheel-drive sport sedan (or coupe). Its VQ V-6 engine had more power than the top-of-the-line BMW 330i but started at about the same price as the base-model BMW 325i. The G was redesigned in 2007, and a hardtop convertible model was introduced in 2009. For 2014, the Q50 sedan debuts as an all-new model (the coupe and convertible versions continue on from the previous generation as the Q60). Infiniti will continue to sell the outgoing G37 sedan in dealerships until the end of 2013.
The 2014 Infiniti Q50 plays in the fiercely competitive entry-level sport sedan segment with the venerable BMW 3 Series and the recently updated Cadillac ATS and Lexus IS. Our initial impressions are that the new Q50 is in the mix with these cars in terms of driving dynamics, with a sporty character and good power from the 328-hp, 3.7-liter V-6. There will also be a Q50 Hybrid for 2014 with an estimated net power rating of 354 hp. A seven-speed automatic comes standard on all Q50s; the manual transmission is gone for 2014.
The 2014 Infiniti Q50's all-electric steering system is the first appearance of this technology in a passenger car, but a typical power rack-and-pinion steering setup will be standard for those wary of the non-hydraulic setup. One of our complaints about the G37 was the unrefined sound of the engine, and for 2014 the engine feels and sounds more refined thanks to a revised intake and exhaust as well as revised noise insulation. A turbocharged four-cylinder engine will join the V-6 and hybrid models in the near future thanks to a new partnership with Mercedes-Benz.

Lens problems? Camera problems.
So I sent these photos away and only got about a third back, almost all of them with massive light leaks. I'm assuming it's because my lens got knocked loose at a certain point, where the end is shifting and moving. I'm uncertain if I noticed it on this day or a few days later. But I'm still waiting on a couple more rolls (taken with this camera) that were taken a couple weeks earlier than this one. I'm hoping that they come back fine and I don't have a bigger problem on my hands.
This photo was shot on film. Taken by edenhovenga with a Pentax K1000 loaded with Ilford FP4+ ISO 125 film (available in our Online Shop) in Baltimore, MD, United States.

Guided tour of the exhibition titled Economie Humaine, organized by Hélène Maslard, project manager at the Contemporary Art Space.
This exhibition takes a look at the relationships artists have with the corporate world and, more broadly, with the economy.
"But why this exhibition? To demonstrate that the economy is not absent from the concerns of many contemporary artists. To show how the artistic vision of the economy eventually "humanizes" it. By imitating it, by subverting it, by broadening its practices sometimes to an absurd extent, by making it a subject not of tension but of relaxation..." note Paul Ardenne, curator of the exhibition, and Barbara Polla, associate curator.
Among the 22 artists who are contributing to this exhibition, some are world-renowned, such as Hervé Fischer, Lucy + Jorge, Conrad Bakker, and Burak Harikan.
Sign-up is compulsory. NB: to make the exhibition more easily viewable, the number of visitors is limited.
