Eric Michaels
How did I get my start? "I sent an email to the station asking for an internship. I got the job right out of High School and the rest is HISTORY!"
What is my favorite or MOST memorable interview? "I've gotten to interview a lot of people over the years. However, I really enjoy interviewing the up and coming artists. They are usually so grateful and appreciative! They are so glad that you've taken the time to chat with them and it's cool for me because when/if they make it big you can say, "I interviewed them WAY BACK WHEN!" Some of the recent ones include James Wesley, Florida Georgia Line, Darren Warren, The Wheeler Sisters and the list goes on and on."
Best part about working in radio? "Playing the music, meeting the listeners, interacting with the people that make this station so successful. We'd be nothing without them!"
If I could do it all over again, with no stipulations/no money involved/ no age limit; what would I be doing? "You're looking at it! This is all I've ever wanted to do, can't imagine doing anything else!"
Most technological change since I started working in radio? "The increased emphasis on the digital mediums over the last few years. Websites, social media, streaming etc. have revolutionized our industry."
How would I describe your first radio gig? "I am still at my first radio gig! This is the only station I've worked for and plan to keep it that way as long as they'll have me!"
What artist would you be surprised to find on my iPod? "IPod? Psssshhh....I listen to the radio! Nothing beats the feeling you get when your favorite song comes on the radio!"
Do I have a favorite hobby outside of radio? "Ever since I became a homeowner, I find myself tinkering around the house, rather than outside the house...I think I'm getting old?"
What advice would I give people new to the business? "If this isn't your passion and what you really want to do, don't waste your time. Make yourself available and take it all in. Make yourself as versatile as you can!"
What's the biggest gaffe I've made on-air? "One time, when we were in our old facility, our studio looked into the studio of our sister station, I turned the mic on and just about said THERE positioning statement instead of ours! OOPS!"
Name an artist/act (living or dead) I'd love to meet and why? "Some of the older artists like Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and even Hank Jr. Just to sit and have a few beers and listen to their stories! I guess it could still happen with Hank!"
Which celebrity do I get mistaken for? "When Eric Church was in town a while back, I got a hat and glasses close to what he wears and a few people actually thought I was him!"
What is one truth that has held constant throughout your career? "To expect the unexpected and things are constantly changing."
Would I rather watch a sitcom, a reality show, a police drama, a legal drama or a medical drama? Or something else? Why? "A friend of mine accused me of watching nothing but trash TV. My TV is usually set to Discovery, TRUtv or the History Channel."
What would I do if I had a million dollars? "NOTHING! Absolutely nothing and I'd love it!"
If someone offered me 50 dollars to sing karaoke on your show, would you do it? "Sure! It'll buy a half take of gas or so! Warning...I can't sing!"

Suunto, the world's leading dive computer brand, has introduced a firmware update that brings various new features to the Suunto D9tx, D6i and D4i.
Already known for their stylish design and great functionality, Suunto's D-Series dive computers are to benefit from several new features to make them even more user-friendly and attractive whether you're an experienced technical diver, freediver or an adventurous spirit new to the diving world.
The new features include:
All models:
- Apnea Timer feature for freedivers enabling interval training for static apnea
- Dive off mode
- Air Time on/off setting
- Improved time alarm modes: Off / Once / Weekdays / Everyday
Suunto D9tx:
- Freedive mode
- Air Time to mixed gas dive mode
Suunto D6i:
- Configure up to three gases instead of two
Pia Talja, Product Manager for Suunto says: "Suunto has worked for many years with the world's best freediver William Trubridge and AIDA; the Worldwide Federation for breath-hold diving and is committed to offering features that best meet the needs of today's freedivers in all Suunto D-Series models. Among scuba divers the Suunto D6i is a tremendous success, and we wanted to make it even more relevant to advanced divers by adding one more gas."
Record-breaking freediver and Suunto Ambassador William Trubridge says: "Being able to turn dive mode on and off is invaluable for when I'm swimming or snorkeling and don't want to log a lot of shallow dives. The Apnea Timer is also a brilliant piece of software that allows me to conduct freediving training tables from my wrist, or coach someone who is doing the same. With its intuitive software, pinpoint accuracy, clear display, sturdy design and numerous alarm functions the D6i is far and away the best gauge for freediving on the market."
The firmware update is also available to existing Suunto D9tx, D6i and D4i owners via Authorized Suunto Service Centers. Please contact your local Suunto dealer for more information on the update and Shipping and Handling fees.

By TERRY WILLISSun Advocate reporter
With a week off to prepare, the Carbon Dinos were hopeful they could put on a good show against the top ranked Soaring Eagles. No matter, it was Juan Diego that came out on top by the score of 8-1 on Friday afternoon.
Carbon came out strong and played a good defense for several minutes into the half. Juan Diego worked the ball, but couldn't score. But finally one sneaked by the Carbon goalie for the first point and the Soaring Eagles were on the board. They scored three more times in the first half.
Carbon did manage a goal against what looked like an impenetrable defense. Felicia Olmos stuck it in the net for the Dinos. But Juan Diego showed why they are ranked so highly and added four more to their tally as they played both solid offense and defense throughout the game.
Coach Jerad Upwall was still encouraged by his team's play, "Last match up with Juan Diego we spent the entire game playing defense, this time we had some good offense and even scored against them."
He is also excited that North Sanpete beat Salem Hills and now the spot for second place is up for grabs. North Sanpete has only one game left, Carbon has two, The Dinos have already beaten Delta and hope to do it again this week. "We are still in it. I don't know what the outcome will be, but the region is evenly matched up, after Juan Diego and anything can happen," commented Upwall about the rest of regular season play.
The Dinos have two more games left until playoffs. They head up to take on Delta this Wednesday and then finish up at home on Friday against Salem Hills.

In turbulent economic times people scramble for ways to protect and preserve their hard-earned wealth, and some experts are offering advice on the best way to achieve that goal.
This is especially important given that moving assets into offshore accounts may have lost its appeal now that governments around the world have started to actively pursue those who would like to transfer funds abroad for tax benefits.
Still, there are a few options left.
According to Jay Adkisson, a California lawyer who specializes in asset protection, quoted by the Forbes magazine, putting money in trust for children – as long as the funds were obtained from a legitimate activity – can effectively shield the assets in case creditors come calling.
There are also legal ways to avoid taxes if you have enough money.
The Forbes expert suggests buying diamonds or gold bullion and placing them in a Swiss bank. The transaction does not have to be reported to the IRS because it does not pay any interest.
Similarly "raw" land, i.e. a type of property that does not generate income, does not require reporting, either.

@TuxedoSam: "You're preaching silence."
No. I am against using the wrong tools. See this article is a good example, because it draws such a wrong picture, by coming down on "man". What do you learn from that? You just unlearn.
I am not for silence. I am against crawling into a cave. I am against exclusionism and yes, avoiding exclusionism is more important than hammering home w/e message. If you can't get the message to the streets, by getting yourself a comfortable circle that just shouts everyone down, you don't accomplish something. You just fail more spectacularly.
Thats why I am listening and talking to everyone that is listening, but I wont even waste my time talking to someone who preaches that way. Its always just people who can't admit they are completely wrong. Its sad that the loudest shouters are listened to the most.

|October Best Month of Sales Since 2007
|Written by High Country Realtors
|Wednesday, 04 December 2013 10:25
Realtor®-assisted home sales hit a six-year high in October, as buyers' market conditions continue to attract buyers to the local real estate market. Sales year to date are also on track to surpass those recorded in 2012.
There were 144 homes worth $39.99 million sold last month, according to the High Country Multiple Listing Service, which records Realtor® sales in Ashe, Avery and Watauga counties.
That's the highest one-month sales total since October 2007, when 178 homes sold. It was also the highest sales value since August 2008, when $42.8 million was sold. Median sold price for October was $181,000, the lowest since March.
"We are pleased to see that real estate activity in the High Country continues to improve, which is good news for both buyers and sellers," Laurie Phillips, executive officer of High Country Association of Realtors®, said.
Since the summer selling season started in June, High Country Realtors® have sold an average of 132 homes a month. The average value was $35.98 million. That represents the busiest summer season since 2007, prior to the Great Recession.
For the year, Realtors® have sold 1,090 homes worth $282.16 million. That's outpacing last year's sales at this point, when 1,064 homes worth $266.08 sold.
The median sold price in that span is down 2.9 percent, from $197,400 to $191,750.
Interest rates continue to motivate buyers. They remain at near historic lows.
As of Nov. 7, the interest rate for a 30-year fixed-rate home loan averaged 4.16 percent, according to Freddie Mac. That rate was up from 4.1 percent the week prior. It's also a significant decrease from early July, when rates hits 4.51 percent.
Lawrence Yun, chief economist of the National Association of Realtors®, recently said national existing-home sales are expected to retain the healthy gains seen this year, while prices will stay on an uptrend in 2014.

About the ManufacturerBorn and raised in New York City, Thomas Paul got his start in the fashion business working as an intern at DKNY, in the mid-nineties, after graduating from New York's Fashion Institute of Technology with a degree in textile design. While working as a colorist and designer for a silk mill specializing in neckwear and scarves, he worked on neckwear collections for such designers as Bill Blass, Calvin Klein, and DKNY. This eventually led to the creation of his own neckwear collection, the short-lived digities in the late 90's. From this was born the start of the thomaspaul pillow collection, launched in 2001, which was originally conceived of as an idea of utilizing the silk printing mill's capabilities for home accessories instead of personal accessories. Since then the line has steadily expanded into other categories apart from silk pillows to include tabletop, stationery, and lamp shades. The ultimate goal being to have products covering every aspect of the home, all with thomaspaul patterns gracing them.

Our general interest e-newsletter keeps you up to date on a wide variety of health topics.
Retinoblastoma occurs when nerve cells in the retina develop genetic mutations. These mutations cause the cells to continue growing and multiplying when healthy cells would die. This accumulating mass of cells forms a tumor. Retinoblastoma cells can invade further into the eye and nearby structures. Retinoblastoma can also spread (metastasize) to other areas of the body, including the brain and spine.
In the majority of cases, it's not clear what causes the genetic mutations that lead to retinoblastoma. However, it's possible for children to inherit a genetic mutation from their parents.
Gene mutations that increase the risk of retinoblastoma and other cancers can be passed from parents to children. Hereditary retinoblastoma is passed from parents to children in an autosomal dominant pattern, which means only one parent needs a single copy of the mutated gene to pass the increased risk of retinoblastoma on to the children. If one parent carries a mutated gene, each child has a 50 percent chance of inheriting that gene.
Although a genetic mutation increases a child's risk of retinoblastoma, it doesn't mean that cancer is inevitable.
Children with the inherited form of retinoblastoma tend to develop the disease at an earlier age. Hereditary retinoblastoma also tends to occur in both eyes, as opposed to just one eye.

SLR Regios tonight. Tastes great as always, but this one isn't staying lit very well for me.
Having a Liga Privada No 9 right now.
Weather was great Saturday before turning cold again. Had a La Aurora corojo and a Hemingway Short Story while breaking in my new smoker. That was one good smelling deck.
Getting cold here again. 30s out. Having an Illusione Rothchildes.
I have been smoking through a box of the Illusione Rothchilds with about a year on them and they are smoking great. If you buy them by the box, i just bought another box from superiorcigars.com. This weekend they were listed at $143.00 ($149 shipped) and sold out. I bought them on Monday from the same same site for $156.00 (with free shipping over $150.00). Best $3.00 cigar out there in my book. Picked up a box of MK Ultra on the same order so looking forward to trying them.
+1 to everything said about the Rothchildes. CigarsAtYourPrice.com will also accept that price on a box of them (or the same price per stick if you place a bid for a five pack, single, or whatever).

LAPORTE, Ind. (WZZM) -- Nearly 24 hours after escaping from the Ionia Correctional Facility, a convicted murder whose escape prompted a nationwide alert is under arrest.
LaPorte County Sheriff's deputies arrested 40-year-old Michael Elliot around 6:30 p.m.EST Monday following a short police chase.
Around 6:15 p.m. an employee at Aero Metals in LaPorte, Indiana witnessed a man drive away in his 2002 black Monte Carlo while it was warming up.
Police were alerted about the stolen vehicle and a deputy spotted it moments later and attempted to pull the driver over. The suspect led deputies on a chase into a rural area of LaPorte County. Authorities disabled the vehicle with stop sticks and arrested the driver.
Deputies say Michael Elliot identified himself to officers. He alsoreportedly stole four vehicles; a Jeep in Ionia, Mich. and vehicles in Shipshewana, Elkhart, and LaPorte, Indiana. He was reportedly still in possession of a hammer and box cutter, which he used in his escape in Michigan.
Elliott was booked in the LaPorte County Jail and is being held without bond.
LAPORTE, Ind. (WZZM) -- LaPorte County authorities say prison escapee Michael Elliot is in custody.
Deputy Dean Schultz with the LaPorte County Sheriff's Department confirmed Elliot's capture with WZZM 13's Phil Dawson. Schultz says Elliot was captured Monday evening following a short chase outside LaPorte city limits.
Elliot escaped from the Ionia County Correctional facility Sunday night. He carjacked a vehicle and the female driver, heading south to Middlebury Indiana. The woman escaped and called 911 but Elliot managed to get away.
We have a crew headed to the LaPorte County Sheriff's Department and we will have more information as it becomes available.

YIELD: Makes 2 dozen
ACTIVE TIME: 35 min
TOTAL TIME: 1 day (includes rising)
- 1 russet (baking) potato (1/2 pound), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter, divided
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 (1/4-ounce) package Active dry yeast
- 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
Generously cover potato with cold water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer, covered, until very tender, about 10 minutes. Reserve 1 cup cooking liquid, then drain potato well.
Meanwhile, melt 2 1/2 tablespoons butter.
Mash hot potato in a large bowl with a fork. Stir in milk, salt, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 2 tablespoons melted butter (mixture will be lumpy).
Cool 1/2 cup cooking liquid to warm (105 to 115°F). Stir in yeast and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. (If mixture doesn't foam, Start over with new yeast and remaining cooking liquid.)
Stir yeast mixture into potato mixture, then stir in flour with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms.
Turn out dough onto a floured surface and knead, dusting surface and hands with just enough flour to keep dough from sticking, until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes (dough will be slightly sticky).
Brush a large bowl with some of remaining melted butter, then turn dough in bowl to coat. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let rise, chilled, 8 to 12 hours.
Punch down dough (do not knead), then halve. Roll each half into a 12-inch-long log on a very lightly floured surface with lightly floured hands. Cut each log into 12 equal pieces and roll each into a ball. Arrange evenly spaced in 6 rows of 4 (less than 1/2 inch apart) in a buttered 13- by 9- by 2-inch baking pan. Cover pan with a kitchen towel (not terry cloth).
Let rolls rise in a draft-free place at warm room temperature until doubled (they will fill pan), 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
Preheat oven to 375°F with rack in middle.
Melt remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons butter.
Brush top of rolls with melted butter and bake until golden-brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Loosen edges with a sharp knife, then transfer rolls to a rack and cool slightly.
Cooks' note: Rolls are best the day they're baked but can be frozen, wrapped well, up to 1 month. Thaw, then reheat, uncovered, on a baking sheet in a 350°F oven, 5 to 10 minutes.

Note: Is Wednesday Night A Crucial Game?
2PM: As Carp from Rangers Report points out, the Flyers started off the 95 season with three straight losses.
They then went 28-13-4 to finish out the season and finish first in the Atlantic.
The Rangers started the season 2-5 and went on a seven game losing streak in games 26 through 32 before finishing the season 22-23-3 and finishing in eighth place.
8:07AM: According to Jeff Klein in the NY Times, during the 48 game season in 1995, no team that lost three straight games to start the season made the playoffs.
Brad Richards told the Times that this isn't ideal, "You don't want to do that anyway in an 82-game season, but with only 46 games left, it's got to be corrected quickly."
The Rangers, Flyers and Coyotes have all started with two straight losses. Vancouver is 0-1-1 to start the season.

By RICHARD SHAWStaff reporter
There have been many challenges facing the charter school movement in Utah since the legislature passed the statutes that allowed these institutions to be created four years ago.
Facilities, funding, staff retention, supplies... the list goes on and on, just as it does for other public schools.
But one of the things many critics have pointed out that the charter schools have not had to do is to prove they are improving students education. In fact many say there has been no education accountability other than the majority of parents who have had their children enrolled returning their kids for another year because they are happy with what they are seeing.
That was until this past year. Last fall the Utah State University's Center for the School of the Future did an evaluation of many aspects of the state's charter schools and looked at some key areas at every one of these institutions.
With the opening of the Salt Lake Arts Academy last fall, Utah has 13 charter schools. The vast majority of these schools were authorized by the Utah State Board of Education. Only one was set up by a school district it exists in itself.
The reports general conclusions concentrated on eight areas. But all these areas were affected by a number of factors including the following points.
This was the first report that the Utah State Center for the School of the Future has done on charter schools. In the report they pointed out that they "learned about the challenges, success, obstacles and solutions" that charter schools have to deal with. They also pointed out that they learned about charter schools "relationships with local school districts and the sources of stress in those relationships."
The report also noted that charter schools are as different from one another as regular public schools are different from each other. Charter schools serve a broad range of Utah students from various cultural groups, economic classes and ability ranges.
The report also points out, because of these differences, some have succeeded in various areas better than others.
The conclusions of the report included the charter school learning curves, the purpose of charter schools, the academic performance of the charter schools, the innovation present in the schools, the parental involvement, the statutory requirements for the charter schools, the qualifications of the teachers in the charter schools and the charter schools impact on the various school districts in which they are located.
Charter school learning curve. The report pointed out that since Utah is relatively new to the realm of charter schools (compared to somewhere like Minnesota that has had over 10 years experience) legislators, state board personnel, local educators, school board members and parents have had to learn about how these schools function in the last four years. This is a short time to understand how these schools operate and how to manage their operations. The report points out that if the charter schools are to be successful in the long term, "legislation must become clearer, rules and regulations must be written to cover conditions that are not now addressed and technical support must be provide both to new and currently functioning charter schools."
The purpose of charter schools. While six purposes are set forth for charter schools in state code, not one of them "has achieved distinction in meeting all of the purposes." However some of the institutions have exceeded expectations in some specific purposes."
Academic performance of charter schools. The report points out that it is hard to use standardized tests to prove the effectiveness of charter schools.
This is because, depending on the charter school, some student populations were selected from high performing groups while others were selected from under performing groups. In addition there is a problem with the "lack of appropriate comparison groups for at-risk populations." However, the report did note that, in general, elementary level charter schools outscore local public school districts on "end-of-level and Stanford Achievement Test (SAT) results." On the other hand, secondary students in charter schools generally score lower.
The report, in it's general conclusions mentioned that Carbon's Pinnacle Canyon Academy, has however, tried to overcome these difficulties of measurement by administering the SAT every year to all students in the school. This allows for what the report termed "student gains" which is more accurate than the "snapshot" testing that other schools have used. In this way the Pinnacle Canyon Academy students performance "slightly improved over time when compared with the normal group."
Innovation in charter schools. Various innovations were observed in Utah charter schools. Innovations include everything from school-based democracy to addressing individual student groups needs. (For instance Tuacahn High School emphasis is on the arts while Uintah River High School concentrates on Ute culture.)
Parent involvement. The parental involvement is not the same from school to school. One may allow parents to be involved in everything the school does (including hiring of personnel for the school) while others allow little involvement in the day to day operations.
Statutory requirements. Most schools were found to be in compliance with state laws in this area.
Qualifications of teachers. While most teachers in the charter schools are qualified, not all the schools have documented those qualifications adequately. The report noted that 13 of 43 teachers employed at charter schools were ranked as unqualified, based on a database system that contains licensure and databases on educators). Five of the teachers did not have a current state license. That is 12 percent of the total verses 5 percent in the regular public schools.
Impact on local school districts. While it varies from district to district, all the schools have some impact because they have pulled students away from regular public school (which translates to lost revenue to school districts). Specifically, Carbon School District was mentioned as being the most impacted because the Pinnacle Canyon Academy enrolls "almost 7 percent" of the student population in the district.

Highest Quality and Highest Potency Omega-3 Supplement: Icelandic FOURmula
Quadruple Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil for EXTREME HEALTH BENEFITS!
Select an image to see ALL the amazing health benefits of Quadruple Strength Omega-3 Fish Oil
Dr. Gordon Recommends Icelandic FOURmula Omega 3!
A foremost leader and expert in the importance of blending Homeopathic and Traditional medical treatments, Dr. Garry Gordon is the founder of the Gordon Research Institute and the School of Advanced Nutritional & Medical Research.
"Anyone who wants to achieve optimal health - especially in matters concerning the heart, brain and joints - should take Our Formula every day. This is by far the best Omega 3 Fish Oil product on the market today, hands down. The purity and potency it possesses makes it far superior to all other Omega 3 products on the market today."
People Like You Who Have Experienced Amazing Omega 3 Health Benefits!
I've done research and we now need 4 times the amount of Omega 3 previously suggested and Icelandic FOURmula provides that in a simple and easy way. I also worry about the toxins that you can get in Omega 3s from store bought products. That really does concern me and it's a big factor in what product I choose, that's why I chose Icelandic FOURmula. If I am spending money for a healthy product I want to make sure there is nothing that can harm me or just not have any affect.
I would strongly recommend you try Icelandic FOURmula. If you have the same results as me, you will be living with more mental acuity and a lot less pain. The potency of Icelandic FOURmula is the best. I don't have to take as much to get a high dosage compared to other brands. Do you really want to take 6 or 8 pills because you get them at a warehouse club? The solution to my problem is more Icelandic FOURmula and a few less visits to the physician.
When I compared Omega 3 labels I saw that Icelandic FOURmula is very conscientious when catching fish and that is important because I don't want to endanger a species just to save myself. Plus my experience with cheap store brands is they didn't really take effect. With Icelandic FOURmula since it has 4 times the Omega 3, I felt results the first week. My hips used to feel very sore and tender, almost locked. Now I feel a lot more flexible since taking Icelandic FOURmula.
I've tried other Omega 3 formulas and haven't felt anything. With Icelandic FOURmula I felt the difference in the first week. My concentration has definitely increased. When I am at my computer, I can remember what I need to do whereas before, dealing with menopause, I have been having trouble remembering things.
Icelandic FOURmula is definitely a gift from god. Since I began using Icelandic FOURmula people at my church have noticed how energetic I am. I have also noticed a difference in my focus especially when reading. Icelandic FOURmula is the perfect health secret.
I'm taking Icelandic FOURmula Omega 3 because I want to keep my heart healthy, keep my head clear and my joints active. I've been taking Icelandic FOURmula to keep me going... Icelandic FOURmula keeps me going and it keeps me active!
I have seen a huge difference in my energy level since I started using Icelandic FOURmula. I compared the Icelandic FOURmula label to store brands and there is a big difference in the potency. For me Icelandic FOURmula is the fountain youth. It has greatly improved my concentration. I am no longer saying "What was that guy's name?".
I started taking Icelandic FOURmula Omega 3 and noticed immediately that the pain in my right knee was gone.
Active People Need Even More Omega-3 3000mg of Omega-3 per Day in Fact!
From the National Institutes of Health (NIH):
"The dosage necessary for the full benefits of omega-3 has gone up from 1000mg to 3000mg per day"
National Institutes of Health
Choose an Omega-3 supplement that delivers 3000mg per day...
3000mg is the EXACT AMOUNT provided by Icelandic Fourmula!!!

Garden Apprentice Program
The Garden Apprentice Program (GAP) at Brooklyn Botanic Garden is a great way for teens to learn about urban agriculture and the environment while working in one of the most exciting public gardens in the world! Apprentices can work their way up the four-tier program, potentially earning a paid position as Senior Apprentice.
If you enjoy getting your hands dirty and want to work with other teens, GAP may be for you.
Apprentices make a nine-month commitment to GAP, from March to November, which includes spring training, summer programming, and a weekly commitment throughout the academic year. See the tier descriptions for more information and application links. For more information, please email [email protected].
Garden Apprentices in all tiers
- Work with children, behind-the-scenes with staff, or with Garden visitors
- Learn about botany, environmentalism, and protecting the earth
- Grow, harvest, and cook their own fruits, vegetables, and herbs in the Children's Garden
- Explore in depth Brooklyn Botanic Garden's amazing plant collections and greenhouses
- Develop job skills, including teamwork, communication, and responsibility
Tier 1: Discovery Guide apprentices
Open to students in 8th or 9th grade
- Discovery Guides work alongside an adult Instructor and a teen Senior Apprentice in the Children's Garden, helping with garden-based activities for children ages 5–10 in our afterschool and weekend programs. Apprentices spend most of their time outdoors, working in the vegetable beds with children. They build skills in horticulture while learning how to be environmental educators. Gardening, nature explorations, and cooking with fresh ingredients are the main activities.
- Earn a monetary award at the end of the apprenticeship.
Tier 2: Garden Corps apprentices
Open to students in 10th grade or to those who have successfully completed Tier 1
- Garden Corps apprentices work behind the scenes, experiencing the range of work we do here at Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Apprentices are placed in different mentorships in the spring, summer, and fall, working with the curators of various gardens, helping manage our educational greenhouses, or running science research projects. Garden Corps apprentices also delve into current environmental issues through films, field trips, discussions, and debates.
- Earn a monetary award at the end of the apprenticeship
Tier 3: Junior Apprentices
Open to students in 11th grade or to those who have successfully completed Tier 2 (10th-grade students are considered on a case-by-case basis; please contact the GAP coordinator).
- Junior Apprentices run our Discovery Carts—education stations that are wheeled out onto the grounds on weekends. Apprentices build public-speaking and interpretation skills as they engage with Garden visitors on nature-based topics such as kitchen botany, plant evolution, and bees in NYC and work in teams to research and create Discovery Cart topics of their own choosing. Junior Apprentices also delve into current environmental issues through films, field trips, discussions, and debates.
- Earn a monetary award at the end of the apprenticeship
Tier 4: Senior Apprentices
Open to students who have successfully completed the Junior Apprenticeship, Tier 3
- Senior Apprentices work alongside an adult Instructor and a teen Discovery Guide in the Children's Garden, helping lead garden-based activities for children ages 2–12 in our afterschool and weekend programs. Senior Apprentices spend most of their time outdoors, working in the vegetable beds with children. They build skills in horticulture while learning how to be environmental educators. Gardening, nature explorations, and cooking with fresh ingredients are the main activities. Senior Apprentices take a leadership role in mentoring other apprentices, particularly Discovery Guides, as well as teams of apprentices during horticulture time.
- Earn an hourly wage
All new, incoming apprentices are required to pay a one-time $50 uniform and materials fee.
1. Do I have to reapply to the program every year?
Yes. Even if you were in the program previously, you must submit an application (with reference letters) and participate in a group interview every year. You are not guaranteed a position in the next tier of the program just because you participated before.
2. I am in the 12th grade now—can I apply to be an apprentice?
Unfortunately, students currently in the 12th grade are not eligible to apply for GAP. The only 12th graders in the program are returning Senior Apprentices completing Tier 4 from 11th grade. (Tier 4 is not open to new applicants.)
3. If I participated in the Children's Garden programs (Seeds, City Farmers, Junior Botanists, etc.), do I automatically get into GAP?
No, we do not automatically accept anyone into the program—all students must submit a full application. We have many apprentices who have participated in other BBG programs, and we encourage all former program participants to apply.
4. How does GAP decide who is accepted into the program?
The staff panel reviews the applications and considers the applicant's short-answer responses and the teacher's comments about the applicant on the reference forms, as well as how the applicant represents him-/herself at the group interview. We are looking for enthusiasm, genuine interest in learning at BBG, and an open mind. Past performance in the Garden Apprentice Program is also taken into consideration for returning applicants.
5. Do I need to have gardening experience to be accepted as an apprentice?
No. We have some apprentices with years of experience in growing food and working with plants and many more apprentices who have never set foot in a vegetable garden. The apprenticeship is designed so that people from all knowledge levels have opportunities to learn and explore.
6. What is the time commitment for an apprentice?
The time commitment for GAP varies depending on the time of year and your tier in the program. Generally, the time commitment is as follows:
Tier 1: Fridays after school and/or Saturdays in the spring and fall; Tuesday through Friday for six weeks in the summer.
Tier 2: One day a week after school, Saturdays, and/or Sundays in the spring and fall; Tuesday through Friday for seven weeks in the summer.
Tier 3: Saturdays, and/or Sundays in the spring and fall; Tuesday through Friday for seven weeks in the summer.
Tier 4: Fridays after school and/or Saturdays in the spring and fall; Tuesday through Friday for eight weeks in the summer.
Apprentices typically work an average of five hours per week during the academic year. All apprentices have mandatory training for three full Saturdays in March. Meetings, trainings, and special events will be added periodically to the calendar. Check the applications for specific dates for each tier.
While many apprentices participate in sports, clubs, college prep, and other extracurricular activities, we do ask that those serious in applying prioritize GAP, after academics. We help apprentices develop the time management skills needed to juggle multiple responsibilities and are generally flexible regarding occasional, pre-arranged conflicts.
7. What are the dates for the 2015 program?
GAP runs from March through November 2015. Important dates are listed below:
|March Saturdays:
|All-day trainings; March 7, 21, 28
|Spring placements
|July 7–10:
|Tier 1 summer training
|July 14–August 14:
|Tier 1 summer session
|June 30–July 3:
|Tier 2 summer training
|July 7–August 14:
|Tier 2 summer session
|June 30–July 10:
|Tier 3 summer training
|July 14–August 14:
|Tier 3 summer session
|Tier 4 summer training
|June 30–August 14:
|Tier 4 summer session
|Fall placements
|October 31:
|All-day final meeting
|November 14:
Special meetings, events, and trainings will be added to the calendar throughout the year.
8. Can I miss the summer session and still participate in GAP?
No. Participation in the summer session of the program is required, no exceptions. Please schedule family vacations and other activities before or after the dates listed on the application.
9. Can I participate only in the summer session?
No. We ask apprentices to make a full commitment to the program, March–November. If you are looking for a summer internship only, this is not the place for you!
10. What if I want to go on vacation during the summer?
Please schedule family vacations and other activities before or after the dates listed on the application.
11. Can I apply for SYEP in the summer and still participate in GAP?
Due to scheduling constraints and other concerns, we are not able to have apprentices apply for SYEP funding for the summer.
12. Do I have to start at Tier 1, or can I join the program at another tier level?
You can apply to the Garden Apprentice Program at any tier—Discovery Guide, Garden Corps, or Junior Apprentice—except for Tier 4, Senior Apprentice. To apply to be a Senior Apprentice, you must have successfully completed the Junior Apprenticeship.
13. Can I skip a tier?
No, we generally do not allow apprentices to skip tiers. There are opportunities and skills unique to each tier that we think are valuable as you move up through the program.
14. Could participation in GAP count toward community service credit?
Absolutely! The hours you contribute to the garden as a Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3 apprentice are considered volunteer hours. These hours can be used toward community service requirements from your school. Even though apprentices in Tiers 2 and 3 receive a stipend for their work (see #15, below), the hours contributed are still considered volunteer hours. Senior Apprentices cannot apply their work hours toward community service because they are being paid for their work.
15. Do I get paid? When?
Apprentices who successfully complete the program are given a nontaxable award in December, as follows:
Tier 1, Discovery Guide: $100
Tier 2, Garden Corps: $200
Tier 3, Junior Apprentice: $450
Senior Apprentices (Tier 4) are paid every two weeks an hourly wage of $7.25 per hour.
16. Why is there a $50 fee for new apprentices?
All new apprentices are required to pay a one-time $50 fee to help offset the cost of uniforms and other materials provided to each apprentice. As the apprentice moves up the tiers in the program, he/she is not required to pay the fee again.
17. Do I have to send in all my application materials together, or can they be submitted separately?
No, you do not have to submit all your application materials at the same time. You can mail or drop off your application, and then ask your references to mail their forms directly to the GAP coordinator:
Make sure your references know that all application materials are due by December 3! That means that the forms must be received by GAP by December 3, not postmarked by December 3. We do not accept faxes.
18. How many apprentices are accepted into the program?
GAP accepts 12 to 14 apprentices per tier. In the past, we have received about three times that number of applications. Therefore, acceptance into the program is competitive but not impossible! Good luck!
More questions? Contact the GAP coordinator at 718-623-7252 or [email protected].
The GAP application deadline for the 2015 program has passed. Applications for 2016 apprenticeships will be available in fall 2015.

A New Look
Posted by Thomas MacEntee at 4:54 AM Labels: technology
Part of Spring cleaning also means updating the look of this blog. Let me know what you think, especially if you find the page loads slowly for you. I believe the culprit is either the new Blog List or the Label Cloud.

CARTHAGE The village Board of Trustees instructed the water superintendent to further research leasing out village-owned forestland and to draft a lease agreement.
Water Superintendent Ernest L. Prievo brought the matter to the boards attention in December, suggesting that leasing the 500 acres around the reservoir in Belfort would give the village more control over the property. Mr. Prievo reported to the board that people were trespassing on the land and that hunters were interested in using the land.
The issue was tabled Jan. 22, with village President G. Wayne McIlroy saying, Im not in favor of leasing. ... Id leave it forever wild.
With Trustees Kathleen E. Latremore and Rebecca M. Vary requesting more information, Mr. Prievo was asked to pursue the matter.
Mrs. Latremore voted to pursue the matter without committing to supporting leasing the land at a later date.
Its a way to say who is on the land and when. If we lease it, there is someone there to monitor who is on the property, Mrs. Latremore said.
Ms. Vary also was in favor of gaining more information.
We should explore the options, not so much for the revenue stream but that would be a bonus, she said.
Trustees Michael F. Astafan and Linda R. Smith-Spencer were not at the meeting.
The water superintendent said through his research he had some qualms about leasing the property.
Ive almost have had a change of heart, he said. I dont know if we would be any more or less liable leasing than having it posted. If we lease we know who is there, but once a hazard is identified like a tree down or bridge out, we would have to respond.
Mr. Prievo pointed out the money garnered from leasing the land might not cover any liability incurred. He also said access to the property could be gated at only one point.
The gate will cut down on access but does stop hunters or others from coming in from the other direction, Mr. Prievo said. The leasees will police it themselves. If they are paying to be there, they wont let others in.
