Commentary:Opera is no longer intimidating
Kristen Campbell, News Editor
Five and a half hours of opera in pure German is not how I usually spend my Wednesday afternoons, but I made an exception on March 31.
Being on the Campus Times staff, I hear about everything that is happening on campus, including "The Ring" lecture series. When I found out "The Ring" is a series about four extremely long operas, I was completely turned off to...
Bookstore voices say no to the Kindle
Kevin Garrity, Editor in Chief
Last weekend I found myself browsing the book shelves of Barnes & Noble, something I do fairly routinely.
I wasn't sure what kind of book I wanted to get, or if I was even going to purchase one that day because there are three other books on my shelf that I haven't had a chance to dive into yet.
And it wasn't until I walked from section to section, grabbing,...
Commentary:Lack of Leo Dollars prevents healthy eating
Carly Hill, News Editor
Now I am not the most fit of individuals. I like to refer to myself as big boned, or voluptuous. But when I am feeling bloated, I want to eat healthy.
And on a college budget, and the only food option being the school-dining program, I feel that the University of La Verne is trying to keep me overweight.
During the week is OK, with salad bar available at every meal, but...
First steps may not leave big prints
Kevin Garrity, Editor in Chief
Is it time to breathe yet? Is the health care debate finally over after months of political posturing?
Answers seem to point in the direction of yes after President Obama signed the law a few weeks ago, but after the entire process, it still seems like an initial step to improve the American health care system; a first step in the direction of universal health care, something...
Commentary: Getting 'lost' in the hype?
Michael Escañuelas, Arts Editor
Our generation has been both blessed and cursed with major events that have taken place during our lifetime. We were alive to witness an American tragedy, an eight year war, the first African American President, the rise and fall and rise again of health care reform and of course one of the greatest television shows to ever appear. I'm not speaking of "Two and Half...
Commentary: Haiti still needs attention
Kristen Campbell, News Editor
I know what you are all thinking, "The United States is already in Haiti helping the citizens after the earthquake. Why are you writing this article?"
After attending the screening of "Poto Mitan: Haitian Women, Pillars of the Global Economy," I was writing my article to report on the event and I found myself wanting to put my own opinions into the article, which...
Gossip consumption leaves real news in the dark
Kevin Garrity, Editor in Chief
The Web site minonline.com, a marketing publication that rates successes and failures throughout the media, released their results on which magazine covers were the best and worst sellers in 2009. A year that saw continuing economic disaster, the ongoing battle of fighting two wars and relentless debate on trying to reform a major sector of our social lives, health care,...
Commentary: Getting around with Google
Kristen Campbell, News Editor
Google Maps is a great help to anyone needing directions walking, driving, using public transits, and now, bicycling. My experience has always been an easy and efficient one, until I started playing around with the Web site.
While perusing summer vacations, I was curious how far Honolulu was from my house, so I pulled up Google Maps and got directions, thinking it would...
Vacation Down Under
Kevin Garrity, Editor in Chief
I have never been able to travel anywhere exciting for spring break; it was always sports, school or lack of funds that kept me from exploring different lands. But this spring break led me on my most memorable one yet, to the land down under, Australia.
While I have traveled to Europe before, this was my first time being in the southern hemisphere and I have a 14-hour...
Wanted: One good candidate
Kevin Garrity, Editor in Chief
California must be in really bad shape. Every day I read something that highlights that point, but the Golden State's deep problems might be indicative of the group of politicians running for governor this year. And if you don't know the cast of characters then you haven't been watching much TV, because Meg Whitman's ads are on almost more than "Friends" reruns....

Once you have bought your rc helicopter and are ready to start experiencing all the joys of flying it, you will first have to take a bit more time off to learn the do's and don'ts. There are so many mistakes to be made flying these model planes. You do not want to end up damaging your considerable investment, other people's property or hurting yourself. This articles touches on some do's and don'ts that if you religiously follow, you should be able to become an expert at handling your RC chopper.
• Learn the switches and start off right – Before you even switch on your remote control helicopter, you have to first learn the controls. Take a look at the instruction manual and know which switch does what before you hit the start button. This will keep you from breaking your aircraft on your first go at it. After you have learnt what each of the switches does, the next thing that is important is knowing in which positions they each should be when you start your engine. Different models will require different starting positions. One common thing however is that the best way to start is by having all the switches in the same direction. Let them all point up or let them all point down.
• Check up before take-off – When you get into your car you will always make sure that everything is in order before you start it and drive away. This is the same for your remote control helicopter. One of the most important things to verify is that all the control screws are properly functional. You may have to tighten them or loosen them before you take off. The screws that you have to pay special attention to are the ones that control the tail. They are usually tightening or loosening more often than the others as they steer the bird.
• Keep calm and do an inventory when you crash – Especially for beginners, crashing your remote control helicopter is something that is bound to happen. For some people it will happen several times before they get the hang of things. A lot of people are so heart broken when they crash that they do not bother to slowly inspect the craft and the crash area. You have to make sure that you still have all the pieces of your craft before flying off again. Lack of being meticulous can prove to be very expensive when you lose a piece.
• Learn the winds – flying a remote control helicopter when there is a wind blowing is not such an easy affair in the beginning. The first thing that you want to do is determine how the wind is blowing. You will then have to decide whether you intend to fly with the wind or against it as they each require different maneuvering. You also need to learn how much power you will need. A lot of people make the mistake of thinking that when they are flying in the same direction as the wind they require less power but this is not true.

Humble pride: Holliday reaches historic milestone in familiar stoic fashion
JUN 17, 2014 12:49p ET
ST. LOUIS -- For just a little while, it looked like Matt Holliday might not embrace the moment.
The way he stood on first base after lining a low-and-away breaking pitch to center field to drive home Jon Jay in Monday night's 6-2 victory over the Mets, you wouldn't have known he had just collected his 1,000th RBI. The scoreboard flashed congratulations and Holliday, business-like as usual, removed his batting gloves and prepared to take his lead.
But when the sellout crowd at Busch Stadium rose in appreciation, Holliday smiled -- briefly -- and tipped his batting helmet. Yes, he understood the accomplishment.
"It was important to me," Holliday said later in a FOX Sports Midwest TV interview. "I very much appreciate fans taking notice of something like that. A lot of places, it probably wouldn't be noticed or appreciated as much. But it's very much appreciated."
Few would have been surprised if Holliday had not made much mention of the milestone. He can be so even-keeled and adept at dodging the media that he can come across as aloof. But he's not. A tad shy, perhaps. But mostly, Holliday is humble.
I sometimes think he avoids talking about himself so the baseball gods will not frown on him and send him into a slump. As silly as that might be, it's understandable for anyone who is the least bit superstitious. Why risk it? Holliday's job is hitting, not talking about hitting. Not everyone can be like Tony Gwynn. Well, there might never be another superstar as approachable and eager to talk about his craft as the late Mr. Padre.
Every time you talk to Holliday about hitting, you can be sure he will point out how difficult it is to barrel up a baseball. You can't say he's wrong, either. And yes, he's very mindful of his numbers. He might not be able to tell you his batting average is .264 or his slugging percentage is a career-low .384, but he is as aware as his haters that he hasn't hit the way he wants for much of the season.
But to tell the media his swing isn't where it needs to be can come across as an excuse. If he were to try to break down the mechanics, you would have to be a hitting coach to truly understand. So why bother? Besides, there's also the very real possibility that Holliday doesn't know why he is putting up career-low power numbers.
He is seeing the ball well, based on a career-best strikeout-to-walk ratio (44 Ks to 40 BBs). He says his body feels good, which is evident when you watch how much better he is moving in left field this season. His lower back acted up on him last week, but that didn't stop him from launching a home run well over the center-field fence at Tropicana Field, where most fly balls died on the warning track in the Cardinals' two-game series last week.
While the quantity of Holliday homers is down, the quality is up. His five homers have averaged 422.4 feet, the second-longest distance in the majors among those with at least five. He could be considered the leader since anyone from another planet shouldn't count, and Giancarlo Stanton is having an out-of-this-world season. His 19 homers have gone an average of 426.5 feet, according to the home run tracker on espn.com.
You know Holliday considered No. 1,000 significant because he met with the media on the field and briefly in the clubhouse after his milestone RBI Monday night. By the way, nearly half of his RBI have come since he was traded to the Cardinals nearly five years ago. And the 463 runs he has driven in for the Cardinals are the most in the NL since he arrived. What he said should encourage Cardinals fans.
"I feel like we're starting to hit our stride and everybody's starting to swing the bats good," he said. "I feel like our team's playing well, and it's fun."
Of 17 other active players with 1,000 RBI, all but Ryan Howard have played longer than Holliday's 11 seasons. He indeed had reason to be proud of this milestone, and good for him for showing it.
"He's pretty stoic most of the time, but I mentioned something to him and he had a big smile," manager Mike Matheny said. "He's a baseball fan. He loves the game and he realizes there's not a lot of people to reach a milestone like that. I think it took him back a little bit."
For a little while, at least.

The Medici effect, a concept rooted in the Renaissance fortunes of a Florentine banking family, helps explain recent advances in data architecture practice, said Brand Niemann, co-chairman of the Federal Semantic Interoperability Community of Practice.Niemann said a present-day Medici effect has produced a wealth of data architecture initiatives and creativity in related fields such as semantic interoperability. The Medici Effect, a popular book by Frans Johansson, describes how the interactions of industries, cultures and scientific disciplines inspire new innovation.We are getting the Medici effect from a diverse group of people collaborating across boundaries using state-of-the-art information technology and standards, Niemann said.As examples of people from different groups who find collaboration ideally suited to their work, Niemann cited the communities of practice focused on federal semantic interoperability and service-oriented architecture.Those groups produced the Federal Enterprise Architectures Data Reference Model 2.0.Web 2.0 standards and technology have also contributed to recent advances in data architecture practices, Niemann said.

Social entrepreneurs are people who apply the techniques of business and innovation to solve social problems.
Social innovation is what they do, and social enterprises are what they create.
Social enterprises may be new, stand-alone, economically sustainable organizations, or they may involve change and innovation within existing structures.
People skilled at leading change from within are social intrapreneurs.
Social infrapreneurs are the ones creating the ecosystem for social enterprises to thrive.
