The Wild Silk Moths of North America: A Natural History of the Saturniidae of the United States and Canada
Cornell University Press, 1996 - Nature - 250 pages
The Saturniidae are among the largest and showiest moths in North America. This comprehensive work covers the life history and taxonomy of a hundred species and subspecies of these Lepidoptera. The beautiful adults and larvae of all species are illustrated in thirty color plates, which are supported by line drawings of cocoons, distribution maps, and photographs of behavior. More than a natural history guide, this book includes chapters in population biology, life history strategies, disease and parasitoids, and the importance of silk moths of human culture. The systematic account emphasizes genetic differences among populations and the process of speciation and presents new information on experimental hybridization and life histories. For the student, researcher, and naturalist, here is practical information on collecting, rearing, and conducting original research. The entire text is referenced to an extensive bibliography. Paul M. Tuskes recieved his Ph.D. from the University of California, Davis, in entomology and is the author of more than twenty scientific papers on moths. James P. Tuttle, a detective-lieutenant with the Michigan State Police has extensively collected, reared, and photographed saturniid moths, and served as an officer in the Lepidopterist's Society. Michael M. Collins, a research associate with the Carnegie Museum of Natural History, earned his Ph.D. in zoology from the University of California, Davis. His research interests include speciation and natural hybridization.

Four Years and a World of Difference: The
Evolution of Lyndon Johnson and American
Foreign Policy
affairs no matter how successful it is," LyndonJohnson once told jour-
nalist Hugh Sidey, "because I didn't go to Harvard." It is classic LBJ, a man
who, despite a myriad of abilities and accomplishments, longed for the
approval of the Eastern establishment. Not just a native Texan, but a native
Texan from a poor, sparsely populated region, Johnson had been raised by
parents with deep historic and emotional ties to the state. When he made
his mark on the national political scene, he found it impossible to escape
the popular images that accompanied such a background. For the rest
of his political life, he confronted a simplistic image of himself rooted
in the picture of the classic Texas gunslinger: aggressive and unyield-
ing; committed to the defense of good against evil; unable or unwilling
to recognize the subtle nuances of the world around him; and, of
course, prone to violence. "As a Texan," wrote historian John Milton
Cooper, "he evoked images of the South and the West. He alternately
cultivated and cursed those images, according to whether they helped
or hurt him politically. But he could not escape them. His frequent pri-
vate invocations of a heroic Texan heritage, particularly the Alamo leg-
end, indicated how faithfully his outward appearance as a nonmetro-
politan, nonsophisticated, nonfashionable figure reflected inner reali-
ty." This background shaped him, and the perception of him by others,
for the rest of his political career. "People," wrote historian Paul
Conkin, "viewed him as a Texan, and filled in all the images that they
associated with that identity."2

R.O.T.C. Arrives at Mt. Vernon High School
By F. ROMALL SMALLS
Published: October 4, 1998
MOUNT VERNON— SERGEANT HYMES, please come to the main office.'' That boomed over the intercom system throughout the sprawling building of Mount Vernon High School just before the start of the new school year. Along with this simple request came a new science elective course and lofty expectations that the sky will be the only limit to the opportunities available to the 2,400 students here.
Last month, an Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps program was introduced at the high school. Retired Master Sgt. James E. Hymes and the program's superior officer, Retired Lieut. Col. John F. Kirk, are responsible for running and teaching the unit aerospace science.
The cadet corps is only the second of its kind in Westchester. Roosevelt High School in Yonkers has the other Air Force R.O.T.C. unit and will serve as Mount Vernon's mentor.
In a recent interview the two officers, both of whom recently retired after serving a combined 47 years in the Air Force, spoke about their goals for the program.
Before the beginning of the new academic year, about 60 students expressed interest in the unit. Colonel Kirk said that each newly chartered R.O.T.C. unit is given three years to establish a cadet corps of 100 students. Mount Vernon High School now has 80 students enrolled as cadets, 29 of whom are girls. Both Sergeant Hymes and Colonel Kirk said it was mainly word-of-mouth that brought about the positive response.
The program offers high school students in any grade an opportunity to earn up to three science elective credits, and it introduces them to industrial and military opportunities in aerospace technology.
The officers also give credit to Brenda L. Smith, principal of Mount Vernon High School, for bringing in the program.
''She had the vision of getting this program here from scratch,'' said Colonel Kirk, a former Michigan-based Air Force pilot with 23 years' experience in the military. ''It was her idea and she went through all the leg work, and there is a considerable amount of it. When it came time for them to designate a program, they didn't hesitate to give it to Mount Vernon.''
Sometime last year the principal began the quest for the R.O.T.C. program, an idea picked up from fellow principals in Yonkers and the Bronx. ''I applied to all of the branches of the military and was prepared to accept, with the school board's approval, any branch that would afford us a unit,'' Mrs. Smith said. ''And I was told by the Army, Navy and Marines that we would have to be placed on a waiting list. The Air Force also put us on a waiting list.''
When she was told that Mount Vernon was sixth or so out of 134 schools on the Air Force Junior R.O.T.C. waiting list, Mrs. Smith stepped up her campaign for a cadet corps.
''We went more aggressively after the Air Force, because of the aerospace-science component, and also we felt that it was the most prestigious of the branches,'' she said.
To bolster her application, she obtained written endorsements from key political officials, including Congresswoman Nita Lowey and Mayor Ernest D. Davis of Mount Vernon, who had been a member of the Air Force R.O.T.C. when he was in college.
The basic tenets of the Air Force Junior R.O.T.C. are character, leadership and respect. Sergeant Hymes, who served as an Air Force aerospace mechanic in Idaho, said, ''We are here to build character, including moral character.''
In a glossy brochure, ''Air Force Junior R.O.T.C. and You,'' there is a curriculum outline, which includes subjects like the heritage of the Air Force and the development and history of flight, which are taken in the first year of the program. In the second year students study flight and navigational principles, and in the third year the cadets cover areas like space vehicles and rocketry. In the fourth year students are given several options, one of which is an honors program allowing them to enroll in ground school to obtain a pilot's license.
Admission to Junior R.O.T.C. is fairly simple and available by registering with a school counselor. All that is required is United States citizenship, good character and physical fitness. Staying in the program is more difficult. Cadets have Junior R.O.T.C. classes five days a week and are expected to maintain a grade point average of at least 2.0.
They are also required to dress in uniform once a week. And once they become part of the Junior R.O.T.C. they are expected to conduct themselves as leaders.
Besides doing regular course work, students have the opportunity to join the unit's color guard, which will perform in parades and at ceremonies. They will also take field trips to Air Force bases, airports and Federal Aviation Administration units. Students who complete the program may gain extra benefits like college scholarships or entrance to the Air Force with higher than normal initial standing.
Estella V. Able, chairwoman of Mount Vernon High School's science department, said the program can provide opportunities for students interested in the military.
''I think this program is going to give some of our students additional options,'' she said. ''I know of a young girl who wants to be an astronaut, so she is interested in going into this program because she feels that it will give her additional experiences. It will expose her to areas we may not have covered in the traditional classroom.''

Aloha Bay Candle Votive Essential Oil Patchouli -- 12 Candles
Oops! Something went wrong and we were unable to process your request. Please try again.
At Aloha Bay, we believe in the wealth of fragrance found in nature - pure flower and plant essences with the power to revive or soothe, heal or protect. This all natural line is made with 100% pure essential oils. The highly scented line contains pure essential oils and fine fragrances.
Aloha Bay Nature Scented Votives are made with an all-vegetable virgin wax blend that contains no residues of harmful solvents, otherwise known as Palm Wax. They burn hotter then most of the other candles on the markets because of the kind of wax Aloha Bay uses and the wicks that are braided cotton with paper cores. The surface of Palm Wax candles has a unique crystal pattern and bright colors.
Always burn votives in a votive glass.
Burn time: up to 16 hours.
