Shower jellies are some of our most innovative products and there are many fun ways to use them. You can crush them into a shower pouf to create a rich lather or rub them directly on your body. Try freezing (or chilling) them for an especially cool, refreshing shower or bath experience. Shower jellies also make great shampoos and add lots of softness and shine to hair.

Cherry-coconut skin softening jelly
Our sweetest shower jelly is also our best-seller! Between the fruity fragrance, the iridescent glitter that leaves a sparkle on your skin, and the seaweed base that leaves your skin softened and refreshed, it's irresistible. And while we know our blackcurrant and sour cherry wobbler smells good enough to eat, we recommend you curb your cravings and hop in the shower and wash with Sweetie Pie instead. Smooth it all over your body (and your hair too!) for a sweet yet sophisticated cleansing experience.
- Are you ready for this jelly? Mineral-rich carrageenan extract is the seaweed that gives our jellies their jiggle.
- Some like it sweet: If you're a fan of sweet, fruity fragrances you'll fall in love with Sweetie Pie.
- Put a cherry on top: Studies suggest that sour cherries are anti-inflammatory and antioxidant.

2 answers
A:Yes, use this beauty daily! In the shower, rip off a small chunk of the Jelly and rub it into a loofa-it will lather up really nicely.Answered on 12/29/2014 by Elizabeth from LUSH Direct
A:Use this every shower and enough to make a good lather. All depends on how you feel! It will take some getting used to but sometimes you use a pea size amount and others a grape sized. :-)

I LOVE THIS SMELL AND WANT TO LAYER IT ALL OVER MY BODY. What lotion or fragrance is compatible?Asked on 3/10/2014 by Anna from San Pablo Ca
1 answer
A:We don't have a product that matches exact scent, but for a lotion Skin Sin may work well! It has a ripe, juicy cherry fragrance that would really compliment Sweetie Pie! Vanilla Dee-lite would also be a great layering choice!Answered on 3/22/2014 by Kayla from LUSH DIRECT

Q:My daughter LOVES Sweetie Pie and uses it religiously, however she is going to camp over the summer and needs a bar soap for the week. What LUSH soap would have a similar smell that she would like? Thanks!Asked on 5/13/2013 by Christine from Friendswood, TX
2 answers
A:I would definitely recommend "Rock Star" or "The Godmother" soap, as both are fun and sweet scents. Rock star smells like bubble gum, while The Godmother smells like sugary candy!Answered on 9/25/2013 by Laura C from LUSH Direct
A:I would recommend "Rock Star" due to its sweet bubble gum scent. It's awesome on it's own, but I find it also goes really well in combination with Sweetie Pie. Hope this helps! :DAnswered on 6/14/2013 by Firecat from Brookfield, IL
Q:how long does a tub of this generally last?Asked on 1/2/2013 by Anonymous
2 answers
A:I for one have the smaller tub, and i have only used about half of it, and i got 3 months ago! Also, if you do not use shower jellys right, they fall apart and do not work. You HAVE to use a loofa for this to work, and to sud a lot! hopfully that helped :DAnswered on 4/6/2015 by bella from CT
A:The length of time that the product lasts entirely depends on how often you are using it, as well as how much you are using each time. The shelf life on Sweetie Pie is 14 months so you want to make sure you are using it up within that time frame.Answered on 2/28/2013 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
Q:Will the sparkles in the Sweetie Pie transfer onto your skin?Asked on 7/14/2012 by Tina the Total Lushie
2 answers
A:No, They tend to stay in the jelly. witch i like because im not the biggest fan of glitter :)Answered on 4/6/2015 by Bella from CT
A:Since Sweetie Pie has a soap base that lathers, the glitter generally is rinsed away from the skin when you lather up. If you would like some glitter that sticks, try out our Shimmy Shimmy bar, or the Fairy Jasmine bath bomb. You'll be as sparkly as a disco ball!Answered on 8/28/2012 by Megan from LUSH Direct

SWANSBORO — If you don't know Linwood Hood, you likely know the work he has done around the Town of
As a member of the Swansboro Festivals Committee, Hood has had a hand in putting on the annual Mullet Festival and the town's other major events for nearly 20 years. He and his staff at 24/7 Electric are known to chip in when the town can use the help, and if there's a civic event going on in town he's likely to be a part of it.
"He's always doing something for somebody else; and it's not just this year, it's all the time," said Swansboro Mayor Scott Chadwick.
Hood is the 2012 recipient of the Samuel Swann Bland Outstanding Community Service Award, which was presented by the town during the December meeting of Swansboro commissioners.
Hood serves as president of the Swansboro Festival Committee and was asked to attend the board meeting with other committee members, unaware that he was to be recognized that night with the award.
"It totally took me by surprise. I was surprised they presented it to me," he said.
Hood said it was fitting that his committee members were standing with him and recognized at the presentation as well.
He said the volunteer committee works hard to put on four annual events in the town: the Mullet Festival, Christmas Flotilla, July 4th Celebration and Arts by the Sea.
"We put on four festivals and it's a lot of work by a fine group of people," he said.
Hood said he and board member Nancee Allen share a love of music and joined the committee at the same time in 1993 and both have been with it since. She is the entertainment director, and Hood found his way into the president's spot.
But no man works alone, Hood said, and he gives credit to everyone he works with on the committee
"We have the greatest festival committee in the world," he said.
While the festivals are enough to keep anyone busy, Chadwick said Hood's volunteerism extends well beyond his work on the committee.
Chadwick said Hood has long been active in organizations such as the Swansboro Area Chamber of Commerce and Swansboro Rotary. And Hood and his staff at 24/7 Electric in neighboring Cedar Point have been good to the town, recently providing the labor and electrical supplies for the new downtown pavilion, Chadwick said.
"Linwood has been a member of the chamber for years and years, he's been a member of Rotary for years. He's always the guy you know you can go to," Chadwick said.
Hood said there are many others equally deserving of the award, and he said accepting it was an honor.
"I love Swansboro. I love being a part of the town, and if I can do something to help make it a better place, I'm glad to do it," he said.
The Town of Swansboro created the community service award in 2009 in honor of Sam Bland upon his retirement after 22 years of service to the community as a park ranger at Hammocks Beach State Park. The award is given annually to a public employee, civic leader or community volunteer based on five criteria: impact, effort, stewardship, initiative and innovation.

My doctor says I'm lactose intolerant and I drank some milk. Now I have the worst burning pain in my stomach. What is safe to take to ease the pain?
- Shin*
Lactose intolerance usually gives a person a stomachache and gas pains or stomach cramps. Gas pains can feel sharp at times, though they don't usually feel like burning. Gas pains can hurt a lot, but they don't last long. They often move quickly to different parts of the belly.
Someone with lactose intolerance may notice bloating, stomach cramps, or nausea within a couple hours of eating foods with lactose. Some people say the gas they get feels like having a bubble in the belly — they might even feel it moving through the digestive system.
Lactose intolerance can give people diarrhea or make them fart after eating cow's milk products. All these things happen because the digestive system is trying to process the sugars found in cow's milk.
Before you take anything to try to feel better, check with your doctor. Since burning pain isn't usually part of lactose intolerance, you'll need your doctor's advice. Any time you notice symptoms that seem different from your usual ones, you want to get checked out, since they could be a sign that something else is going on.

Children who attended this year's Celebrate Erie festival learned healthy living can be fun thanks to LECOM and Wellsville. Medical and pharmacy students from the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine entertained and educated children about health and fitness. LECOM students played games with the children and explained to them how eating right, exercising and practicing good habits can help keep them healthy.
LECOM students enjoyed taking their message of prevention and wellness to the youngest members of the Erie community. Second-year medical student Erin Brennan recruited 34 medical students, while second-year pharmacy student Megan Groshner rallied 33 pharmacy students to help out. The students wore bright yellow Wellsville t-shirts with LECOM spelled across the back. Their presence was hard to miss at Celebrate Erie.
Wellsville founders Kathy Iorio and Tony Snow, M.D., estimated that nearly 700 kids took part in Wellsville activities on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. In addition, hundreds of other parents and children stopped by to learn more about Wellsville. The organization teaches children about exercise, nutrition and self-esteem by incorporating fun activities, hands-on demonstrations and heart-pumping exercises. The Wellsville area was on State Street between 8th and 9th streets in the Celebrate Erie Kids Zone.

We need your help. Many of you already know that puppy mill dogs endure horrible lives of suffering and neglect. But because of a loophole in the Animal Welfare Act, puppy mills that sell puppies exclusively online operate without any federal regulation at all. Dogs are suffering, and it's time we put an end to the hidden inhumane treatment.
Please Help!
Right now we have a chance to help close this loophole forever. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is considering a rule that would regulate online puppy sellers, and we're fighting hard to make sure it's effective. But we need your help today!
Please tell the USDA to start licensing and inspecting puppy mills that sell dogs online. We have a limited time to fight for this rule.
You can also help by supporting our team's work to fight for stronger laws for animals across the country and our other life-saving efforts by making a small donation today.
Some people can be evil. Please put a stop to these puppy mills! Dogs are our best friend and our children. They cannot speak up for themselves. Just as we fight for our children, we must fight for our animals
Please end the cruelty of puppy mills. These puppies are alive and have feelings. Would you want to be treated like one of the puppies?
USDA must start licensing and inspecting puppy mills that sell dogs online.
Please don't let this continue, in this day and age I think we know better. These poor dogs are suffering and you are aware of it! Please take action to end the horrible way these poor dogs are treated!
Put an end to these puppy mills !!! No animal should have to go through that torture just so people can make a few dollars for themselves.
I am absolutely DISGUSTED that puppy mills have not already been stopped in the United States. Animals are living, breathing animals with the ability to feel love and pain. No dog should be used for reproduction and kept in a cage until it's thrown out for being to old. Dogs are the most loyal creatures on this planet, perhaps more loyal than humans. A dog is meant to be a friend to man kind and people just keep using and abuing them. Put yourself in their postition; they may not have a voice but they most certainly have feelings!
Please stop the inhumane treatment of helpless animals! Put regulations on puppy mill breeders and enforce laws that protect helpless animals!
There are sooooo many homeless pets on this earth.
Breeding is a greedy,cruel,insensitive way to make money (Get a real job). ADOPT

The gymnasium of Cornerstone United Methodist Church was packed on Saturday in more ways than one. More than 400 people came to pack boxes for the 2013 Operation Christmas Child Packing Party.
Gaylene St. Leger Cox is a volunteer and helps with the coordination of Operation Christmas Child.
"Today we are delivering gospel opportunities in a shoe box. The shoe box is just the vehicle for the great commission for the message to truly hopeless and faithless children who don't know about Jesus, who live in garbage dumps, who live on the streets, who live in orphanages," St. Leger Cox said.
St. Leger Cox said the boxes contain information about the gospel message.
These are just simple gifts that will deliver that message. We are going to fill over 8,000 boxes today with people from all over the community," St. Leger Cox said.
She said Cornerstone United Methodist Church has participated with the Operation Christmas Child project, but the event itself started in 1993.
"Since 1993, more than 103 million shoe boxes have been filled by people, not just in the United States, but people in Austrailia, Great Britain, New Zealand, Wales Canada, and a couple of more other countries, and the go on to 102 countries with The Greatest Gift of All story interpreted into 70 over languages," St. Leger Cox said.
She said the Operation Christmas Child project is an extremely important event.
"It is important to give back, knowing that there are children who have absolutely nothing. They have no hope," St. Leger Cox said.
She said the shoe boxes impact the lives of young people around the world. Go to samaritanspurse.org and there is a story of a young man in South Africa, whose entire family was killed, except for his aunt right in front of him.
St. Leger Cox said the South African boy's life was changed when he received a shoe box from Operation Christmas Child.
"As a result, he learned that someone else loved him, even though it was a stranger from another country. He went to the prison and saw the man who killed his family and met the man, and forgave him," St. Leger Cox said.
Olivia Lambert, 19, said she enjoys being a part of the OCC packing party.
"I have helped out with Operation Christmas Child for five years. A couple of years ago, I heard about an opportunity to go distribute boxes being a young person. It is called Spy Teams a program for Samaritan's Purse youth," she said.
Lambert she was selected along with 20 other young people to go to Mongolia to distribute shoe boxes to underprivileged kids.
"We split up into teams every day and go to distribution parties and actually hand the boxes to the children. It was a wonderful experience," Lambert said.
Pastor John Jackson, of Gallipolis, was the guest speaker for the OCC event. Jackson served in the US Army for 33 years as a Chaplain and is now retired.
"I was asked to come and share my experience in Bosnia with those working here on this shoe box ministry. I had the privilege of passing shoe boxes out in Bosnia, and so I know for sure that these boxes go to people all over the world who need them," Jackson said.
Jackson said the shoe boxes are an expression of caring.
"It is always important to let others know that you care for them. They need to know that God loves them. The things in these boxes are really important, such as the toothbrushes, and hats. In places like Haiti, the people are in need of things that are simple to us," Jackson said.

Whitewashing American history hurtful to all
Do you remember the epic TV presentation "Roots" from the late-1970s? Perhaps you've seen it since and felt its impact. Local columnist Deidra Jackson recalls when she saw the series and wonders about how we don't seem to have many insightful, educational and entertaining things like that to teach history to the youth of today. With political correctness and other factors, she wonders if we're not whitewashing our history, which does no one any real good. (March 3, 2011, Page 4)

"This could be the perfect London gadget"
Evening Standard: Tech know – Hear clearly now …TomTom's Mobile 5 navigation service could be a godsend for Londoners with no sens of direction. It is a tiny satellite navigation system that uses your mobile phone to tell you where you are, and how to get to your destionation via a map on the phone's screen. It got me across London safe several times. It is also accurate enough to tell which side of the road you're on and can even talk you through directions via your phone's speaker…. this could be the perfect London gadget.

Vol. 23 , No. 01
Dinner for the Class of 2011
Vladimir Putin and the State of Russian Politics
Traditionally, the Athenaeum invites a favorite CMC professor to speak at a special dinner welcoming the freshmen class. This year Professor Hilary Appel will address the CMC Class of 2011 as the first speaker of the academic year.
Professor Appel joined the faculty at CMC in 2000 after a brief time at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. Since that time she has been a popular fixture in the International Relations department, teaching courses on topics ranging from comparative politics to political economy. Professor Appel's particular focus on Eastern European politics brings an especially salient perspective to the International Relations department at a time when Russia is once again at the forefront of international politics. The quality of her scholarship on Eastern European issues also extends to the classroom, where her students benefit from her engaging approach to teaching and remarkable expertise on the subject. Professor Appel's nuanced understanding of Eastern European issues was developed through her education at Williams College, Stanford University, and the University of Pennsylvania, where she received her B.A., M.A., and Ph.D., respectively. It is CMC's good fortune to have her as a member of our faculty.
The Russian government under President Vladimir Putin is widely criticized abroad for putting constraints on the free media, limiting the non-profit sector, manipulating the legal system, eliminating institutional checks on the presidency, and increasing state control over the commanding heights of the economy. Journalists, civic groups, political opponents and alternative parties who fail to support President Putin are undermined, harassed or silenced by many means as they try to express their opinions. Yet Putin is extremely popular at home, with approval ratings consistently over 70% - an enviable level for a politician anywhere. Why does President Putin remain so popular when his government has run roughshod over Russia's newfound freedoms? How widely enjoyed is Russia's recent economic growth and is economic growth the primary reason for Putin's continued legitimacy? In order to answer these questions, Professor Hilary Appel will examine Putin's popularity in the context of Russia's broader political and economic transformation since the fall of the Soviet Communist regime.
Everyone at the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum looks forward to welcoming members of the class of 2011 on this special occasion. Freshmen are automatically signed up for the dinner. If you are unable to attend please email firstname.lastname@example.com or call ext. 18244 to cancel.
An Evening with the Poet
"Cornelius Eady's poems are joyous, incantatory, experiential. [His] work is a glossary of earthly objects and human events, and his linguistic responses provide pleasure even when they are provoked by injustice, or by pain, or by loss."
—Dia Art Foundation
Cornelius Eady is a poet steeped in the black American traditions of jazz, blues, and folk culture. He is the author of six books of poetry: Kartunes (Warthog Press, 1980); Victims of the Latest Dance Craze (Ommation Press, 1986), winner of the 1985 Lamont Prize from the Academy of American Poets; The Gathering of My Name (Carnegie Mellon University Press, 1991), nominated for the 1992 Pulitzer Prize in Poetry; You Don't Miss Your Water (Henry Holt and Co., 1995); The Autobiography of a Jukebox (Carnegie-Mellon University Press, 1997); and Brutal Imagination (Putnam, 2001). His work has appeared in many journals, magazines and anthologies.
Eady is associate professor of English and Director of the Creative Writing Program at the University of Notre Dame. With poet Toi Derricote, he is also co-founder, with poet Toi Derricote, of Cave Canem, a summer workshop for African American poets. He is the recipient of numerous awards including a NEA Fellowship in Literature (1985), a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship in Poetry, (1993), and The Prairie Schooner Strousse Award (1994).
Eady's poems embody a musical quality drawn from the blues and jazz. Indeed, many of his poems allude to traditional African-American hymns and modern musicians such as Thelonious Monk and Miles Davis. He visits the Athenaeum in conjunction with Professor Adam Bradley's course "20th Century Black Poetics".
The State of Health Care in Los Angeles County
On February 19, 1991, Gloria Molina became the first Latina elected to the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. To many observers both at home and across the nation, Molina's election to the board represented both the growing formidability of the Latino electorate and the determination of voters of all backgrounds to elect a leader to office who understood their needs. The daughter of a Mexican mother and a Mexican-American father, Molina grew up in working-class surroundings and is acutely aware of these concerns. Her accomplishments are legion and include the development of public parks, the protection of the public library services, preschool and special needs education for children of the underserved communities, the development of affordable housing, health care access for all, job training for at-risk youth, and economic development projects in her community.
Whether functioning on a local or national level, Molina always maintained her reputation as a fighter and groundbreaker. In the 1970s, Molina served in the Carter White House and the San Francisco Department of Health and Human Services. She was elected to the California State Assembly in 1982 and the Los Angeles City Council in 1987. Her victorious leadership against the construction of a prison in East Los Angeles is legendary. Named as one of the Democratic Party's "10 Rising Stars" by TIME magazine in 1996, Molina served as one of four vice chairs of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) through 2004. During the 2000 Presidential Election, Molina was one of 15 top women leaders nationwide to be named as a possible vice-presidential candidate by the White House Project, a non-profit and non-partisan group dedicated to raising awareness of women's leadership in American politics. In addition, Molina continues to remain active in community issues through her board membership with numerous civil rights organizations, including the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund MALDEF).
Supervisor Molina's appearance at the Athenaeum in celebration of Latino Heritage Month is jointly sponsored by the Chicano/Latino Student Affairs Center and the Athenaeum.
Burying the "N" Word?
In July 2007 the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) held a funeral and burial of the n-word where thousands gathered during their national convention in Detroit. This was followed by other burials in Philadelphia and Houston. Alpha Phi Alpha, the nation's largest and oldest Black fraternity, has recently taken a stand, encouraging fraternity members across college campuses to not hire DJ's who use the racial slur. What is your perspective on the use of this word? Where do you stand? Where do we stand as a college community?
Jabari Asim comes to the Athenaeum as the first speaker in a series of programs coordinated by the Dean of Students and the Athenaeum and designed to provoke a meaningful discussion on this controversial issue.
Jabari Asim's work, infused with wit and independent thinking, reflects his wide literary experience as a poet, novelist and critic. As Senior Editor of the Washington Post Book World, he helps determine coverage of poetry, essays, fiction and nonfiction created around the world. His views are featured in his weekly syndicated newspaper column for the op-ed pages, which discusses everything from politics to social issues to popular culture.
In addition to his groundbreaking book, The N Word: Who Can Say It, Who Shouldn't, and Why (2007), Asim has also published his own works in a number of anthologies and literary magazines. He was the only writer to have both poetry and fiction included In the Tradition: An Anthology of Young Black Writers (1992). Road to Freedom (2000) is his first novel for young readers. His reviews and cultural criticism have been published in the Los Angeles Times Book Review, the International Herald Tribune, and Salon.com.
A Conversation with Gore Vidal
Gore Vidal is a novelist, essayist, playwright, and provocateur whose career has spanned six decades, beginning in the years immediately following World War II and continuing into the early years of the twenty-first century. In addition to a major sequence of seven novels about American history, and such satirical novels as Myra Breckinridge (1968) and Duluth (1983), he has written dozens of television plays, film scripts, and Broadway plays such as Visit to a Small Planet (1957) and The Best Man (1960). He has also written hundreds of essays, gathered in several volumes.
In his latest work, Inventing a Nation: Washington, Adams, Jefferson (2004), Vidal explores the personalities, egos and conflicts of the founding fathers as they set up the institutions of government by which we still live. Vidal's recent books, Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace: How We Got to Be So Hated (2002) and Dreaming of War: Blood for Oil and the Bush-Cheney Junta (2002), are collections of essays investigating the roots and causes of the terrorist crises currently facing the United States.
Vidal's effect on America literary culture is immense, and his works have earned him a permanent place in American letters and politics. In an intimate, interview-style presentation, Vidal displays his forthrightness and wicked wit, discussing everything from current affairs and modern history to brilliant reminiscences of his extraordinary life. His essays on American culture and politics rank among the best of twentieth-century commentary. The collection of his essays entitled United States: Essays, 1952-1992 (2001) won the National Book Award. Vidal's memoir, Palimpsest: A Memoir (1996), is a remarkably entertaining record of his life and times, which are also the life and times of the nation.
Born in 1925 at the U.S. Military Academy in West Point, New York, raised in the Washington D.C. home of his grandfather, Oklahoma Senator Thomas Gore, Vidal shared a stepfather with Jackie Kennedy. After graduating from Phillips Exeter Academy, he enlisted in the Army during World War II, from 1943-1946. At age 19 he wrote one of the first American novels about World War II, Williwaw (1946). This was followed by eight novels in succession, including The City and the Pillar (1948), one of the first unequivocally gay novels in American fiction.
CMC Professor James Morrison will facilitate the discussion with Gore Vidal. This will be a rare and wonderful opportunity to meet one of America's most distinguished men of letters.
Leo Strauss and Judaism: Epicureanism and its Discontents
Leo Strauss once wrote that in order to comprehend "the [moral] antagonism between Baruch Spinoza and Judaism, between belief and unbelief...the Jewish designation of the unbeliever as Epicurean seemed to be helpful."
Eugene Sheppard, associate professor of modern Jewish history and thought at Brandeis University, examines the influence of Epicureanism within Strauss' critique of religious thought and his own life. Sheppard's research focuses on modern European Jewish intellectual history with a special interest in modern German Jewish thought, and has written on Jewish political thought, the radicalization of intellectuals, and the impact of European Jewish refugees on the American public sphere and academy. His book Leo Strauss and the Politics of Exile (Brandeis, 2006) places Strauss' philosophy within the context of German-Jewish intellectual history, and examines Strauss' own experience of living in exile and the competing loyalties of living as a philosopher and a Jew.
Professor Sheppard's Athenaeum lecture is first in the series Leo Strauss and Modern Jewish Thought, planned in conjunction with Professor Gary Gilbert and co-sponsored by the Center for the Study of the Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights.
Indo-Persian Travels in the Age of Discovery
The Athenaeum is pleased to welcome the foremost historian of the early modern world, Sanjay Subrahmanyam. Professor Subrahmanyam was born in New Delhi, and after finishing high school in 1977 went on to complete all his college degrees (B.A. and M.A. in economics) in the University of Delhi. There he also received his Ph.D. in economic history in 1987 at the Delhi School of Economics for his thesis "Trade and the Regional Economy of South India, c. 1550-1650".
His interests eventually broadened from economic and commercial history, to the study of the interplay of political and economic history, to the study of political culture and cultural history.
In the course of the 1990s, Subrahmanyam's work has embraced new sources and archives, not only those from South India, or of the Portuguese and Spanish empires and the Dutch and English East India Companies, but also materials reflecting his growing interest in the history of the Mughal empire, and the comparative history of early modern empires. This accompanied his move to Paris as Directeur d'études in the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales.
In 2002, Subrahmanyam was appointed as the first holder of the newly created Chair in Indian History and Culture at the University of Oxford. His most recent work, published by Oxford University Press, in 2004, is in two volumes, and is titled Explorations in Connected History (Vol. I is titled "Mughals and Franks," and Vol. II bears the title "From the Tagus to the Ganges"). He is also the joint managing editor of The Indian Economic and Social History Review, published from New Delhi. His latest book, written with Muzaffar Alam, is Indo-Persian Travels in the Age of Discovery, 1400-1800 (2007), published by Cambridge University Press.
At UCLA Sanjay Subrahmanyam teaches courses on medieval and early modern South Asian history, the history of European expansion, the comparative history of early modern empires, and world history.
Professor Subrahmanyam's lecture at the Athenaeum is the first in a series of lectures arranged in collaboration with CMC professor Arash Khazeni's course "Gunpowder Empires: Ottomans, Safavids, and Mughals."
Welcome from the Director
It is my greatest hope that everyone in our community will find ways to take advantage of one of the most unique institutions in higher education — the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum at Claremont McKenna College. The Athenaeum is the culmination of the visionaries who founded the College and a current administration that is willing to support this expensive, yet priceless, enterprise. And we are the beneficiaries.
The fall calendar is almost complete, and I think it will speak for itself about the broad diversity of interests and points of view on this campus. A number of lectures and programs are planned around specific themes including: Is it Always about Race?; Climate Change; Iran: Past, Present, and Future; Voices from China; Corporate Governance; and Leo Strauss and Modern Jewish Thought. We will also host two Nobel Laureates this year: Orhan Pamuk in October and Shirin Ebadi in April. You will hear from poets, politicians, historians, musicians — all accompanied by a gourmet meal prepared by the superb Athenaeum kitchen staff.
Each Monday through Friday from 3:00 to 4:30 p.m. we serve fresh baked pastries, tea, coffee, and juice in Parents Library. There you will also find current issues of leading publications, i.e. The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Los Angeles Times, The New Yorker, Harpers, The Rolling Stones, The Economist, to name a few.
So, do stop by, check us out, read your Fortnightly, and sign up (online or in the office) for your first event. I guarantee you will return.
Introducing the Athenaeum Fellows
In their first years at CMC, Brian Davidson and Ben Fidler worked as servers at the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum. Davidson recalls the Ath as a highlight of his freshman tour, and Fidler, without much wriggle room in his course schedule for literature classes, has since considered dinners with guest writers and poets as another path to creative enlightenment. Davidson is a Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE) major and a self-described intellectual in love with popular culture, trivia, and tea. Fidler, a law junkie, is an international relations major who enjoys opera, soccer, and singing in a 5-C a cappella group.
"I've always enjoyed the atmosphere at the Athenaeum," Davidson says. "It has always been a great institution and part of CMC. I have to say that when I did the interview for this job, it was the first time I felt nervous because I wanted it so much."
The Athenaeum's distinction as a convivial forum for dinner and intellectual discourse among students, faculty, and community members puts the role of Athenaeum Fellow on many students' wish-lists. Fellows eat at the head table with influential speakers from the fields of business, politics and the arts, and introduce the guests to Athenaeum audiences four times a week. Davidson and Fidler will also assist with writing and editing the Athenaeum's bi-weekly newsletter, The Fortnightly. Additionally, the Fellows work with Athenaeum director, Bonnie Snortum, in developing themes and strategies for bringing speakers to campus.
"The opportunity to be there every single day and interact so closely with so many fascinating people is just astounding," Davidson said.
Both students have kept a sharp eye on the Athenaeum's lineup these past years. Fidler's favorite guest thus far has been law professor and author Amos Guiora, who lectured last semester on counterterrorism. His dream guest is Muhammad Yunus, whose work in developing microfinance in Bangladesh won the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize. "I would talk to him about why he think it works, and how it can be adapted to other environments," says Fidler. Davidson's favorite Athenaeum guests have included Salman Rushdie, Thomas Pogge, author and military historian Victor Davis Hanson, and commentator and blogger Andrew Sullivan.
Fidler says he looks forward to helping "continue the balance between politics and the humanities" in his Athenaeum work.
Due to limited dining capacity, meal reservations will initially be open to the CMC community after each Fortnightly is issued. Reservations will subsequently be open to the larger community three days prior to the event, subject to availability. Non-College affiliated persons will be charged $15 per meal.
All programs are open to the public without charge and begin at 6:45 p.m. In certain exceptional cases Athenaeum seating will be limited to CMC students, faculty, and staff; however, additional seating will be available in McKenna Auditorium. Advance notice will be provided for those occasions.
The Athenaeum serves as a gathering place where ideas, inquiry, and fellowship bring students, faculty, staff, other scholars, and nationally prominent speakers together. Attendance at any event may be limited to persons associated with CMC, to the people who signed up for the dinner, or to the maximum number of people allowed by fire regulations. On some occasions the speaker may address the group in another forum or the College may set up a video feed to handle an overflow crowd. All programs at the Athenaeum are filmed. Individuals attending should understand that their image might appear on the videotape. House rules and common courtesy prohibit disruptive actions inside the building during an Athenaeum sponsored program. Time allowing, there will be a period set aside for questions. Students will have priority during this portion of the program. Guests are expected to dress appropriately in all dining rooms. Shorts, jeans, and t-shirts are not acceptable at dinner; more casual attire is acceptable for lunch and tea. No bare feet at any time.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Classy invitations at bargain price
High-end invitations with the look and feel of expensive custom printed stationary. I was reluctant and a bit skeptical about ordering wedding stationary on line. Love the stationary and it is the only aspect of the wedding that has come in under budget.
Great print, colour and quality
I was able to customize this RSVP card into a menu card because I needed to use a 4 x 6 to fit into a frame that we are placing on the tables. I got great help from the team and they suggested this option for me. It worked perfectly and they also added my wedding date and sized the text for me as I instructed. Great company overall! Thank you :)
The reply cards were easy to design and customize. I like that they are postcards so we save money on mail. We also included our wedding website on the bottom so they could reply online or by mail. My mom mentioned that people might not realize that it is a postcard, but I think they will turn it over and see the address and stamp.

Neighborhood Greenspace
Maintaining Common Areas in Lincoln, Nebraska
When you purchased your home, or the lot on which you planned to build it, one thing that influenced your decision may have been the open land, or greenspace, nearby. With this amenity comes responsibility.
The City has developed a Neighborhood Greenspace Handbook which is designed to aid homeowners associations in the care and maintenance of their greenspace. Although the handbook is aimed toward neighborhood groups, other property owners with greenspace responsibilities may also find this publication useful, as many of the same principles of planning, planting and care are also applicable to these areas.
Download Neighborhood Greenspace Handbook
For additional information call Public Works & Utilities Watershed Management at 402-441-4959.
The Neighborhood Greenspace Handbook for Homeowners Associations provides:
- Tools and resources for the formation of a maintenance plan for your greenspace area
- An explanation of the role of greenspaces in stormwater drainage systems
- Step-by-step guided planning process with action worksheets
- A review of different greenspace designs common to Lincoln
- A recommended planting list
- General information on stormwater handling structures (ponds, streams, etc.)
- Information about mosquito and sedimentation control
"How Does My Neighborhood Greenspace Benefit Me?"
Properly maintained greenspaces can:
- Reduce chances of flooding by providing a destination for excess stormwater
- Provide year-round recreational opportunities for the entire family
- Provide a natural method for mosquito control
- Reduce long term cost and maintenance
- Provide habitat for many wildlife species
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the purpose of the open space near my house?
- While the purpose may vary, often these spaces serve to convey stormwater along a natural drainage way.
- Who is responsible for paying for maintenance of the area?
- During development, it is the developers responsibility. A homeowners association may assume responsibility after completion.
- Just what are our maintenance responsibilities?
- Typically, the removal of trash and dead vegetation, control of noxious weeds and maintenance of drainage ways are among the responsibilities. These may vary depending on the area.
- Won't ponds and wetlands increase mosquito problems?
- The biological systems that function in a healthy pond or wetland typically include predators that effectively control mosquito populations.
Education Available
Along with the handbook, the City of Lincoln is developing a short presentation which can be presented at your homeowners or neighborhood association meetings to aid in educating the public about their responsibilities for these greenspaces. If you are interested in having a greenspace presentation at your homeowners or neighborhood association meeting, please contact Ben Higgins, City of Lincoln, Watershed Management at 402-441-7589.

Explore the Entrepreneurship.org Resource Center to find resources. Designed with entrepreneurs in mind, our resource center allows you to find materials to grow great ideas.
Changes in the temporary staffing industry could help you hold down labor costs--if you are willing to be a tough negotiator who shops around.
This serial entrepreneur shares the story of how she came to understand the importance of recruiting experienced entrepreneurs to her board of directors. In one instance a new director advised her to hold off accepting an offer for her company, enabling the company to grow and gain value for potential sale later.
This article, written by Jeff Dennis, a serial entrepreneur, outlines for entrepreneurs a set of best practices on considering, selecting, and utilizing a board of advisers.
First-time CEOs may find it daunting to establish their first board of directors. This topic expert details a four-step process to building boards that can help growth companies thrive.
Employment numbers remain weak in the overall economy, and in the healcare business in particular, but the need for temporary help is forcing healthcare entrepreneurs to dig deeper into their pockets.
In research conducted by the Gallup organization with more than eight million subjects, employees are more likely to stay with the organization, have more engaged customers, and will be more productive if they have ties of friendship to others in the organization--especially their bosses. An exemplary boss is one who gets to know employees on an individual basis, tailoring their management to the individual.
An interim executive may be the answer to specific issues facing your growing company. Downsizing has made more high-caliber executives available and willing to help small businesses.
Want to be an employer of choice? Don't simply ask employees for specific results. Train them in behaviors that produce those results--and then provide consequences that change and reinforce those behaviors. Part 1 of two parts, this article offers seven implementable suggestions for cracking the "motivational code."
Values are one of the most important drivers of entrepreneurial success. Remember to reflect and clarify your values, formalizing them in writing, and live them as you make decisions in your business.
Your company's unique characteristics guide your choices regarding executive compensation. Consider the current stage of company development, plans for future growth, intended liquidity path for company equity, and overall management philosophy around sharing financial information and rewards to help you determine what makes sense for your situation.
