"If I'm an Honors student, do I still have to take the Core Curriculum?"
No, you don't. University Honors is an alternative to the Core, not a version of the Core. The only non-major course requirements you have to satisfy outside of Honors are a course in quantitative reasoning and a course in the natural sciences. Often, many Honors students come to the university with these required courses fulfilled through AP courses they took in high school.
"Can I start on my major course work right away, or do I have to wait until after the Honors program is over?"
You can start on your major as a freshman in addition to your Honors courses. Because each Honors seminar is only four credits, you can enroll in one class each quarter outside the program for each of the first five quarters and two courses in the sixth quarter. This way, you can begin coursework in major(s), complete a foreign language requirement, or explore other subjects outside of Honors during your freshman and sophomore years.
"Which Honors track should I choose?"
In most cases, the choice is yours. Students from most majors take both the Intellectual Traditions and Innovations tracks. But if you wish to pursue a credit-intensive major (more than 110 credits), then the Innovations track is probably your best bet. This track fits like a puzzle piece against even the most credit intensive undergraduate majors on campus.
"Can I double major as an Honors student?"
The majority of our Honors students routinely double-major in a variety of subject areas, unless they are in credit-intensive majors. At Seattle University, a student needs 180 credits to graduate. If your desired major is more than 110 credits, it can be difficult to double major and still graduate in four years. But even in such cases, picking up minors in various subjects may still be possible.
"Is there an Honors scholarship?"
Yes. Every student in the program receives a scholarship for not just the full four years of a student's undergraduate education. This scholarship is awarded in addition to whatever other scholarships may be a part of a student's financial aid package.

The 50,000 objects in the textile collections fall into two main categories: raw fibers, yarns, and fabrics, and machines, tools, and other textile technology. Shawls, coverlets, samplers, laces, linens, synthetics, and other fabrics are part of the first group, along with the 400 quilts in the National Quilt Collection. Some of the Museum's most popular artifacts, such as the Star-Spangled Banner and the gowns of the first ladies, have an obvious textile connection.
The machinery and tools include spinning wheels, sewing machines, thimbles, needlework tools, looms, and an invention that changed the course of American agriculture and society. A model of Eli Whitney's cotton gin, made by the inventor in the early 1800s, shows the workings of a machine that helped make cotton plantations profitable in the South and encouraged the spread of slavery.

1838 Faber's Patent Model of a Hand Card
- Description
- Hand Card Patent Model
- Patent No. 863, issued August 1, 1838
- George Faber of Canton, Ohio
- Faber's patent related to the construction of the common hand card used for carding cotton or wool prior to the spinning process. He specifically patented using wood veneer, instead of leather, for the foundation that contained the card's wire teeth. The wood was cut from 1/8 to 3/16 of an inch in thickness, 4 inches in width, and 4 to 8 inches in length. The wood was then steeped in water to soften it so that when placed in a card-making machine, it could be pricked and the teeth inserted. The veneer was nailed to another piece of wood and a handle inserted to form the hand card.
- Although Faber did not claim credit for inventing the card-making machine, in his patent specification he did mention that he had made improvements on it.

1837 Thorp's Patent Model of a Loom Shuttle Tongue
- Description
- Loom Shuttle Tongues Patent Model
- Patent No. 162, issued April 17, 1837
- Comfort B. Thorp of Smithfield, Rhode Island
- Comfort Thorp, the younger brother of textile machinery inventor John Thorp, worked for Thomas and William Fletcher in their mill near North Providence. His patent improved the method of securing and holding the cop, or yarn cylinder, on the common power loom shuttle, preventing slips that would waste yarn and cause imperfections in the woven cloth.
- The patent model he submitted contained two types of tongues. One used a common round tongue with wire spiraled around it. The other consisted of a tongue with ridges or notches similar to the teeth of a saw blade. The two loom shuttle tongues were neatly exhibited in a box, probably to keep them from being separated or lost in the cases at the Patent Office.

After a food fight at West Springfield High School last year, one student was arrested.
According to school records, in the past two years there have been 16 food fights in Fairfax high schools and a total of 70 incidents.
That's why many parents say surveillance cameras are a good idea
But other parents worry about the message being sent to students.
"It says we don't trust our students," said Michelle Menapace, a parent and activist. "That's the message it sends and I don't think that's true."
As for the students, at Centreville High School, where a food fight last year required paramedics to treat two students, they're split on how effective cameras would be.
"Kids are gonna think it's funny to get caught on video so I don't think it's a good idea," said senior Reilly Conway.
"If they put cameras in the cafeteria then they can see who did it and what happened," said junior Haley Spencer.
But Centreville's principal says it's not just about food fights. The camera would be used just like the exterior cameras are now.
"We want to prevent bullying, harassment, theft, drug use and drug dealing," says Centreville principal Mike Campbell. "For me it's about after hours, between four to 11 there's no security in the building."

The widely used term "adult respiratory distress syndrome" (ARDS) as well as its underlying concepts are currently a subject of controversy. Introduced in 1971 by Petty and Ashbaugh1 as a name for the clinical disorder that they had previously reported,2 the term succeeded in replacing its competitors— "wet lung," "shock lung," "DaNang lung," and "pump lung"—but failed to gain unanimous approval. Some authorities are critical of the implied similarity to the infant "respiratory distress syndrome," which, at first, ARDS was mistakenly thought to resemble. Others object to the crowding of diverse disorders under the same terminological umbrella. There also may be those who are distressed by a descriptive label based on a subjective symptom.
Characterized by severe dyspnea, cyanosis, intractable hypoxemia, hypocapnia, wet lungs, reduced pulmonary compliance, increased capillary permeability, hemorrhagic exudates, alveolar collapse, hyaline membrane formation, and impaired gas transport, ARDS complicates a great variety of direct

Skip to comments.Florida man takes 50-foot dive for $20
Posted on 09/20/2006 5:41:49 AM PDT by rightgrafix
PALMETTO, Florida (AP) -- Mark Giorgio figured a 50-foot plunge was worth $20. Giorgio, 47, was counting his money and walking across the U.S. 41 bridge over the Manatee River Monday when a $20 bill blew out of his hand and flew over the rail. He followed. And plummeted 50 feet into the river. Then he swam about 100 yards to fish the bill from the water. "I got my money back, hell yeah," Giorgio told the Sarasota Herald-Tribune. "Twenty bucks is a lot of money when you're broke." He was fished from the water by a passing Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officer. Giorgio, who said he was already suffering from a broken collarbone, refused treatment for cuts and scrapes he suffered in the fall.
(Excerpt) Read more at cnn.com ...
50' isn't that bad. Not good, but not normally deadly.
I wouldn't do it for 20 bucks though... Or even a 1,000...
I wonder if he'll be billed for the rescue ?
I read an article once about professional sailboat racers. One guy was late for a race and the boats were already motoring away from the docks. His girlfriend took him to bridge and he timed his jump to land near the boat. After the race, he and his astonished crewmates went back and measured the drop. I think it was about 120 feet.
I got a Fifty right here for ya, pal.
Yeah, it's gonna cost him $20 LOL!
This reminds me of the story of a man who was counting his change and dropped a dime in the urinal. After thinking about it, he threw in another quarter and said, for a dime, no, but for 35 cents, yes!
Hell, Ill give him another $20.00 just for a great story this morning.
I did 35-40 feet once. Of course I knew what I was jumping into.
I'd hate to be around if he dropped a quarter out of his pocket into an outdoor privy.
I wonder if he knew how deep the water was when he dove? I mean, if it were only about 2 feet beneath the bridge...
Hurt every time. Not injury. Just sting, or bruise, or slap.
I tried for several years to make the dive with "no pain"....never happened.
Highest jump was about 76 feet....that hurt too!
Too old for that stuff now.
I wonder what he would do for a Klondike Bar...
I made a dive to 128 feet. But that was underwater as in Scuba diving.
One of those 10 meter platform diving boards is the highest I've jumped off of. ..that was way back when I was maybe 13 years old. And I jumped. Wasn't even the slightest bit tempted to dive. It looks much higher when you are standing up there about to jump off.
The dude is 47, not 14. It's amazing he survived life this long.
Ya, but I'm not a teen any more...
The standard 10 meter dive is 33'.
It was only money
as a kid we used to jump off a bridge (long since torn down)into Lake Washington. Must have been in the 120 range easily. SScared the crap out of me. Nobody dived off it, but jumping wasn't a problem. 50ft is easy.
That reminds me of the story of an old wino who walks into a public restroom to relieve himself. Upon glancing down into the toilet, he notices a dime resting on the bottom of the bowl. He says to himself, "I may be a drunk and a low-life, but I am not about to reach my hand down into this toilet for a dime." He then reaches into his pocket, pulls out a quarter. Tossing it into the toilet, he exclaims, "But I'll do it for 35 cents!"
Honorable Mention. But he got the money back.
50' is a piece of cake. I jumped 80' one time, broke my tail bone, a minor injury which caused discomfort for a week or so. I was attempting to determine the optimum altitude from which to cut away a parachute and fall into water with maximum crowd appeal and minimum pain. I settled on 50'. The jump was part of a halftime show at a concert at a waterfront resort. It all came off well, but next time I need to check the depth of the water more carefully.
I'm 36 and did 50' off a rope swing about a month ago. Three times was all I could take. 20 years ago I could have spent a day doing it. Oddly, the climb back up was tougher on me than the drop. ;>)
I've done 75' off a railroad tressle. My buddies were diving from the top which was 95'. 50' is no big deal.
Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters
Sounds like a tagline.
Dude, I thought I was insane.
You win.
"There's no such thing as gravity, the earth sucks."
Aw shucks...(kicking at dirt while blushing)
Same, same here. As kids in Boston, "Townies" used to swim at the "Low Bridge" that connects the North End to Charlestown. We'd swim over to the Northeast Artery Bridge adjacent to the old Boston Gardens, climb the steel girders (and we were wet!), and jump approx 100 feet into the Charles River. All the kids did it... of course, we had to take turns keeping an eye on "Sully", our less skillful swimmer!
Good friend of mine, a CMSGT para rescue guy, told about one of his buddies that drove a desk. He had to qualify HALO, and had avoided it for a couple years (back pain, whatever).
So he has to do the jump. My buddy was there, along with a lot of other Para guys. THey wore fins on thier feet, and tanks on their backs, and jumped from way up high.
Total darkness. No moon. You are supposed to watch your altimiter after deploying your parachute, and cut away at 50 feet or less.
So he is in the water, and his desk-jockey budy is still coming down.
He hears, click, YAAAAAAHHHH!!!! SPLASH!!!!
The guy had freaked, and cut away at 100 feet.
The guys in the water are calling to him, and he answers. "Swim towards us!" they say.
"I can't!"
THey thought he was severely injured, and could not swim. When they got to him, they saw his fins at the top of his thighs. His feet had punched right through.
Aha! There you have it!
Bush's fault.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One
"Banzai!" the crowd roared, and a hundred little rising-sun flags fluttered together. Women in black kimonos lined the front of Karuizawa Station, alongside old peasant men in the ancient uniforms of the Russo-Japanese War and schoolchildren in gray summer shorts, all raising their arms in unison and crying out, again and again, "Banzai! Tenno heika banzai!" Long life to the Emperor, victory on the battlefield!
On a wooden dais a slim young man stood in a crisp new Imperial Army uniform. At each shout of "Banzai!" the young recruit bowed deeply to the crowd, his shaven head gleaming in the harsh afternoon sunlight. On a wall behind him hung a long banner with bright red Chinese characters that said: "CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR DEPARTURE FOR THE FRONT." This was one of a thousand identical ceremonies repeated that August day in 1941 in front of railway stations all across Japan.
Suddenly the crowd parted for a Western woman in a long white pleated skirt, a lace blouse, and an enormous hat with a rose on the brim. For the locals in the international resort of Karuizawa, Western visitors were a familiar sight, but as Alice Kurushima made her way out of the station and through the crowd, the presence of this foreigner in her exotic attire still seemed to astonish them. They forgot their "Banzais" for a moment and stepped back as she passed through.
"Tanaka!" Alice called back to her cook in English, oblivious to the solemn ceremony she had just walked into. "Get us a taxi!"
"Oui, madame,tout de suite ..." Tanaka bowed to her, tipping his white beret, and looked around the little square. There were no taxis. All he spotted were two rickshaws. "Madame, allez-vous en rickshaw. Board yourself, please!"
"But what about the luggage?" Alice said, turning around. The porters had piled more than a dozen trunks and wicker suitcases in front of the station. Her husband Saburo stood there, dwarfed by the mountain of belongings. Beside him stood their daughters Eri and Annaone in American-style slacks, the other in kimonoand the maids Yoshiko and Asa. They all looked a bit bewildered.
"Madam," Yoshiko said, speaking an English that was as fluent as Tanaka's was broken, "Asa and I will carry the luggage. Why don't you and the master go in rickshaws?"
"But how can you carry it all? We brought so much."
"Don't worry, madam. We can borrow a wagon from the Peony Inn." Yoshiko pointed to the inn across the square.
Just then the sun burst forth from behind the clouds. Alice quickly covered her arms with a scarf, believing the sun up here in the highlands was harmful. She was glad she'd worn a large hat and long skirt to protect herself.
Yoshiko walked over to the Peony Inn. Instead of a wagon she returned with a wooden oxcart, a relic from another era. When the family had piled all their luggage in, the cart looked absurdly top-heavy, but there was nothing they could do about it. Absurd or not, they set off. Alice and Saburo rode in the rickshaws, followed by Tanaka and the two maids pulling the cart, with Anna and Eri pushing from behind. The rickshaw drivers were both elderly men who moved at a snail's pace, so the others had no difficulty keeping up as the procession made its way down the main road through Karuizawa.
Alice looked around. The highland resort hadn't changed in the five years they had been away. Here and there in the larch woods stood the villas of the foreigners and wealthy Japanese who spent their summer here, each house painted a different color. Beyond the forest she could see the yellowish brown slopes of Mount Asama. A white trail of smoke rose from its crater into the blue sky.
They reached the livery stable and turned onto a dirt path that led through the rice paddies. At the end of the path was the Kurushima family villa. When they saw the house with its red roof and whitewashed panels, Eri shouted, "We're home!" and started running. Tanaka and the maids, luggage in hand, traipsed after her across the leaf-strewn yard.
Alice stepped down from the rickshaw and started toward the house. Turning to Saburo, who was following slowly behind, she called out in English, "It's slippery, be careful!" Then to Tanaka, who was crouching in front of the main door, she called out in Japanese, "Why don't you take the luggage in?"
"Because, madame," Tanaka answered, reaching with his index finger to tip his beret slightly over his forehead, "the keyit does not work. Rien à faire."
"There are so many keys," Yoshiko interrupted him. "We don't know which is the one to the front door."
"Let me try," Saburo said. But before he could try them out, he stumbled over a pile of larch leaves. Tanaka barely caught him in time.
"Oh Papa, you're so helpless!" Eri snatched the keys from him and tried each one in turn, but to no effect. "They must be rusty."
"Why don't we go in from the veranda?" Anna proposed.
"Madame Arizumi," Tanaka said, bowing to her, "I already tried, but it is locked from inside. C'est impossible. There is simply rien à faire."
"Maybe you've got the wrong bunch of keys," said Yoshiko. "I'm going to see if the caretaker has another set." Yoshiko ordered Asa to keep an eye on the trunks and suitcases and ran off to find the caretaker, who lived in a farmhouse behind the villa.
"The house really is in terrible shape," said Alice. She had intended the remark for Saburo, but when she turned around her husband wasn't there; he had already made his way to the archery range at the bottom of the garden. It was Anna who answered her.
"Of course it is, Mama. We've been away for five years. And then there was that terrible typhoon that came in the middle of the summer. They say even the station was flooded with muddy water."
It seemed the monsoon had lasted an inordinately long time this year, and on top of that the town had been hit by a typhoon on the night of July 22nd. Rain came flooding down from the mountains, turning the roads into rivers. The square was inundated and water rushed into the station, causing a panic. Even in Tokyo, houses had flooded in the low-lying districts near the bay. All across the Kanto plain the trains had stopped running one after another.
The Kurushima family had been waiting for the rainy season to end, and it wasn't until the beginning of August that they finally left Tokyo to come up to their villa.
But the huge pile of leaves couldn't have been the result of just one typhoon. Evidently the caretaker had neglected the place all the years they were away. The paint had started to peel, the windowpanes were clouded with dirt, and the rooftiles were invisible under a thick layer of leaves. Even the bicycle and its trailer were weather-beaten and red with rust. The entire house would have to be repainted and given a thorough cleaning. Alice peered through the window, frowning at the mess inside.
Yoshiko returned from the caretaker's house with a new key, which immediately opened the door. The maid went in first, followed by Tanaka, Alice, and Anna. The air smelled of mildew, and everything was covered with dust. Alice shrank from the sight.
Suddenly Anna screamed and grabbed her mother. "Bugs! Look, it's full of bugs!"
"Where? Oh my goodness, Mama!" cried Eri, grabbing onto her mother as well.
The floor was covered with black spots which were beginning to come alive. Some were tiny, others over five centimeters long. With their black sheen, they looked like crickets. Aroused by the light that suddenly shone in on them, they began to hop about like seeds in a box that someone had shaken, and gave off an eerie hum.
"Do something!" Anna screamed, covering her eyes. "I can't stand them."
She looked as though she was going to be sick, so Eri and her mother, stroking her back, led her to the sofa; but just as they were about to get her to lie down they noticed that the sofa was covered with insects too. Even the ceiling and lintels were twitching with them. Eri took her older sister outside instead.
"We're just going to have to get rid of these things," Eri said. Recovering from the shock, she slapped the dust from her hands and told the maid to come inside with her. Then she called out, "Papa, come --quickwe've got millions of bugs!"
The sound of Eri's voice seemed to rouse Alice. "Let me help," she said. She didn't like insects, eitherthey were repulsive, filthy, disgusting thingsbut they couldn't just leave them there.
Saburo came to the doorway and peered in. "Aaagh!" he cried, recoiling at the sight. But then, obviously embarrassed at having reacted like that in front of the family, he picked up a broom and marched into the house like a samurai. "This is war!" he declared.
Everyone joined in the attack. They used flyswatters, newspapers, mops, and brooms. They whacked at the floor, the walls, the furniture. The insects hopped and skipped around them, but they were stupid things and were crushed with ease when their attackers crept up on them from behind. The problem was that the remaining insects then took refuge on the ceiling and at the top of the pillars.
"I've got an idea," said Saburo, who went outside and soon returned holding a souvenir from his trip to America in January. It was a General Electric vacuum cleaner. The vacuum cleaner, with its long neck and a bag attached to the base that swelled with air, was still a novelty in Japan. He switched the machine on, and with a great roar it sucked up the insects from the ceiling, the pillars, and the walls.
"Papa, it's wonderful," said Eri, clapping her hands in delight, as the others all gazed at the amazing machine. "Mama, is this a special machine for catching bugs?" she asked.
"Yes, it is, dear," her mother said with a straight face.
"No, it's not. I don't believe it."
"Oh, but it is. There are lots of insects in America. You don't think we catch them all by hand, do you?"
Once this problem had been dealt with, it was time for a thorough house-cleaning. Under Alice's direction, everyone wrapped washcloths over their noses and mouths and then set to work. Leaving Anna in charge of the cleaning downstairs, Alice went up to the second floor. In the bedroom where their son Ken had stayed during the family's last visit, she found his clothes strewn about exactly as he'd left them five years ago, when Ken was a teenager. Seeing them made her wonder how they would look on him now, a young man of twenty-twotoo small, of course, and probably too flashy. She wasn't sure. That summer in Karuizawa five years before was the last time Ken had lived with them. While the rest of the family went overseasto Belgium, and then to GermanyKen stayed on in Japan alone. Alice had felt terrible about leaving him in Tokyo with only the servants while he went to school. Then, when she had finally returned to Japan, delighted at the prospect of taking care of Ken herself, he had disappeared into the Army.
Alice could hear her daughters laughing and went to the stairwell to see what was happening.
"Hey, look at Papa!" Eri shouted. Catching sight of her husband when she went downstairs, Alice found it hard not to laugh as well: Saburo Kurushima, the former Japanese Ambassador to Germany, was decked out in heavy working gear, but was settled on the couch on the veranda. He had on brand-new overallsbought in Tokyo to wear while working in the field behind their villaand in addition to a gauze mask was wearing a straw hat. Knee-high boots completed the ensemble.
Anna shook her head. "I'm amazed he can even move in an outfit like that."
"He's not moving," Eri laughed, "His Excellency is tired already."
After applying the mop to half the floor, Saburo had put it down and gone out to the veranda for a break. He was about to light his pipe, when he realized he had to remove his gauze mask first. His two daughters smiled.
"It must be from using that vacuum cleaner," Alice said, smiling too.
After a while Saburo closed his eyes in the cool breeze that came drifting from the woods, and dozed off.
In a few hours of feverish work the others managed to make the house respectable again. Alice stood beside a jumble of rugs and futons and blankets hanging to air, and scribbled in the notebook she always kept with her:
1. Completely repaint panels.
2. Seven broken windowsreplace.
3. Get handyman (or caretaker) to sweep leaves off roof.
4. Replace zinc lining in sink with stainless steelcompletely rusty.
Realizing she had forgotten about the garden, she stepped down from the veranda and inspected the grounds.
The Kurushima villa had once been known for its moss garden, which carpeted the area between two larch groves. The autumn leaves and the winter snow posed the greatest danger to the moss, and the Kurushimas had asked a local gardener to look after it throughout the year. But they had been away for five years now, and the old gardener's son had taken over the job. Their messages apparently had not gotten through to him, for the garden had been totally neglected. Under a heavy blanket of rotting leaves, the moss had died.
Alice added another item to her notebook.
5. Redo moss garden with turf.
Eri had wanted a lawn to play tennis on. In order to create the space for it, they would have to cut down two trees, no, more like four. It would be expensive. Alice had her doubts. They would have to get the gardener to make an estimate first, and then think about it. But now as she stood there, somewhere in her mind's eye she could see her daughter hitting a tennis ball across a bright green lawn. She decided they would have a lawn, no matter what it cost.
Alice walked to the edge of the garden. There was a shallow pond there, surrounded by rocks, which they had built as a pool for the birds. The water itself was clear. If the leaves were raked away, it could still be used. Just beyond the pond was a fence, similar to the white picket fence at Alice's country home in Connecticut. In Japan most houses had stone walls. Occasionally one saw a fence around a neighboring villa, but it was never painted, for the Japanese preferred to leave the wood plain. Alice's white picket fence was half buried under the tall grass.
6. Repaint fence.
On the archery range some of the grass had been uprooted. The target with its triple bull's-eye stood uncovered. The wooden stand had rotted, and the target, bearing the scars of numerous arrows, tilted to one side. Saburo had taken to the sport back in the days when he was head of the Trade Bureau, before he was appointed Special Envoy to Belgium. He was a physically awkward man not given to athletics, but he had nonetheless tried his hand at golf and tennis like everyone else. These, however, had soon lost their appeal, and it was only archery that held his interest. Japanese archery was an austere exercise, more like a Zen ritual than a sport. It was done in a ceremonial kimono, each shot preceded by elaborate bowing. The Kurushima family had built a small archery ground behind the main house in Tokyo, and Saburo had practiced there religiously. But when he was posted overseas he had given it up, and now hadn't shot an arrow in five years.
7. Repair archery range.
Saburo had brought his bow and arrows with him, so Alice wanted that done for him. But there were so many other things to do as well. She sighed, then crossed out "6. Repaint fence." She thought some more, then crossed out "4. Replace zinc lining in sink with stainless steel." They would have to economize.
Japan had been at war with China for four years now. When the Kurushimas returned to Japan at New Year's, the first thing that struck them was how everyday items like food and clothes were now in short supply. Before they left Germany, Alice had scolded Tanaka for buying up huge stocks of canned goods and wine, telling him it was silly. She had had to apologize. Germany had also been under wartime conditions, with food severely rationed, but it was nothing compared to Japan. Alice couldn't buy meat or eggs, and there was no cheese or butter to be found. Imported wine had completely disappeared from the shops. If anything, she should be grateful to Tanaka: the cook had secured them enough canned goods and wine to last a year.
Alice placed a blanket over Saburo, peacefully dozing on the veranda, then began sorting through the luggage with Tanaka and the maids.
She had planned to get the house in order in three days, but it ended up taking ten. The roof was covered with a thick crust of rotten leaves, which stank. Alice really needed several strong men to clear the roof, but the local handymen who did that kind of work were all away at the front in China. In the end, she found one retired laborer to do it. It was all the old man could do to climb up there, and his heart just wasn't in it; after three days he was still crawling slowly around the roof.
"Well, damn it, I'll do it myself," said Saburo, leaning a ladder against the wall. Alice talked him out of it. After the workman finally managed to get the leaves cleared off, they found the tiles badly damaged; at least half of them would have to be replaced, but finding someone to do this was quite a job in itself. Yoshiko, who was from a nearby village, asked her mother Toku to inquire among the locals, and after a great deal of negotiation they finally got someone to come and work on the tiles. To plant the turf, Toku also found them an old field hand, but this wasn't a time in history to be planting new lawns, and the fellow had to bring some grass from a corner of his own pasture with him. As for windows, the glassmaker was off at the front, and his wife was unable to handle the order for seven by herself. And no house painter would come at such short notice. The town was simply too short of men to accomplish all the things Alice had scribbled in her notebook.
It was Alice's habit to jot down her thoughts in her notebook immediately. She did this because too many ideas would crowd into her head at once, and she was afraid that if she acted on one she would forget the others. But when it came to implementing her various plans, she tended to forget the tiresome details that were involved: negotiations, payments, paperwork. It was Yoshiko who took care of this. Yoshiko had been with the Kurushimas for more than ten years, since Saburo's stint as Director of the Trade Bureau, and she had lived with them all the time they were abroad. She had become indispensable to Alice, and she alone had the privilege of reading her mistress's notebook. Clearing the leaves, fixing the roof, planting the lawn, replacing the windows, repainting the houseit was Yoshiko who turned all of her mistress's dreams into reality.
When the house itself was ready, Alice turned her attention to the interior. She changed the wall hangings in the hallway and repaired all the torn mattresses in the bedrooms. Then she inspected the large area in the center of the house, which served as both a living room for the family and a parlor for entertaining guests, and decided to redo it in a style she called "Flemish."
They would take out the Italian china cabinet and bring the Dutch ornamental chest down from the second floor. The rattan table would go out on the veranda, and the old-fashioned dining table, hewn from a single piece of wood, would be brought in from the kitchen and set in the center of the room. They would replace the chairs with the wooden ones from Brussels. The carpenter and painter were recruited to help move the heavy furniture. After much fuss, when everything was finally in place, the Dutch chest somehow looked wrong next to the table, so out it went and back came the Italian china cabinet. Now everything looked perfect. Alice draped the room with some lace she'd found in an antique shop in Karuizawa Old Town, placed a flowery centerpiece from Brussels on the table and, as a final touch, added a little model windmill they had picked up in Rotterdam. In Alice's mind at least, the room was now "Flemish."
After four days spent redoing the parlor, Alice was ready for guests. There was no need to send out any invitations, though, for open house on Saturdays at the Kurushima villa was an old tradition. Once word had gotten around that Saburo Kurushima had brought his family up to Karuizawa for the first time after five years abroadthree and a half as Special Envoy to Belgium, and a year and a half as Ambassador to Germanyold friends summering at the resort began to arrive.
They came one by one and they came together: Alice Grew, the wife of the American Ambassador, with her youngest daughter Elsie; Kazuo Yoshizawa, the former Japanese Ambassador to Great Britain, with his only daughter Wakako; the Wolffs, who owned a German trading company in Yokohama, with their son Peter; and Father Hendersen, pastor of the local Anglican church, his wife Audrey, and daughter Margaret. Alice, who loved to entertain, showed them into the "Flemish Room." Tanaka, who had cooked for the Kurushimas since their time in Berlin, was sensitive to the tastes of each guest, and planned his meals accordingly. Usually he liked to serve a Japanese meal, with sashimi and tempura, to Westerners, and treat the Japanese to the petite cuisine he had mastered in France and Germany. But while the Kurushimas had a plentiful stock of canned goods and wine, it was hard to come by fresh meat and vegetables. Especially vegetables. The weather had made for an unusually poor crop this year, and vegetables weren't be found in the shops. The Kurushimas managed to obtain enough fresh food for their dinners only because Yoshiko's mother approached the farmers in the surrounding villages.

A woman was charged with human trafficking Saturday night for allegedly "coercing" children to peddle cookies and candy in Lawrenceburg and keeping almost all of the proceeds for herself.
Rhonda Bell, 32, of 4519 Cane Run Road, Louisville allegedly had nine male children between the ages of 9 and 16 selling "peppermint thin cookies" for her at the time of her arrest, according to a police report.
She entered a plea of not guilty on the Class B felony charge Monday morning in Anderson District Court and was ordered held on a $10,000 bond.
The man convicted of murdering Fairview Road resident Steve Briscoe was given a recommended sentence of 60 years in prison this afternoon in Anderson Circuit Court.
The same jury that found Gary Luttrell, 42, guilty of murder, tampering with physical evidence, theft by unlawful taking and criminal trespassing Thursday night voted to lock him up for 50 years on the murder charge and 10 more for the remainder of the charges.
Those sentences are to run consecutively, meaning one after the next. Formal sentencing is scheduled for next month.
Citing continuing declines in student enrollment, the school district's Local Planning Committee declined to update its $23 million facilities plan during a meeting last Wednesday night.
Since the committee's last meeting in September of 2012, enrollment has dropped by 96 students. The committee meets every four years to review the district's facilities needs and wants.
Police are searching for clues following an armed robbery Saturday night at the Marathon gas station at the corner of Versailles Road and Bluebird Court.
The suspect pulled a handgun on the station's clerk, demanded cash and left and left on foot with an estimated $600 in cash, according to Det. Jeremy Cornish of the Lawrenceburg Police Department.
Cornish said the suspect appeared to be wearing a wig and "odd" clothing when he entered the store.

Fourteen years ago only 1 in 10000 children was diagnosed with autism. Today that rate has soared to 1 in 150. Despite this prevalence research shows that many parents of young children are generally unaware of autism. This campaign seeks to educate parents about the growing rate of autism in this country and to ultimately increase the level of early detection. Because there is currently no cure for autism and no effective means to prevent it early detection is the crucial first step in helping children with autism. With appropriate earlyintervention services from ages 35 between 20 and 50 of children diagnosed with autism will be able to attend mainstream kindergarten.

Can you show us pics with filters attached...
I wish they'd bring out a system like this for standard lenses. It always takes me ages trying to get the threads to mate correctly when using screw-in filters. Bayonet or pinch mount (like lens caps) filters would be much quicker and easier to mount.

Forum > Your Mustangs
hello mustang lovers
(1/2) > >>
Hello,glad to find this site,well I dont have a mustang anymore as totaled it in 1977.
But as my 1st car it love at first drive.1969 w/3512v,fmx,3.25r/e.It was a stripped
down model that was used as a news car at the local tv station my dad worked for.
It had mach1#s as I checked way back when.Still miss it to this day :'(
Welcome to the site Clay. It has been a long time since you lost your Mustang, any plan to buy a new one in the future?
Thanks for the welcome,it has always been in my plans,but wife,childrenand all the rest.
Now nearing retirement,kids grown&doing well on there own,wife divorce gone.
So it has been nagging at me for some time.I doubt in the near future but lust is still there.
Thanks again Clay
Sounds like you might be a little lonely now that the wife and kids are gone, and you are reflecting on younger days when you were happy with a classic Mustang. Well, get another one and get to work on it. I can guarantee you that it will keep your mind on the Mustang project and not the lonlineness. Come here often to get help. Check in at the Classic section and discuss classics with us.
Well welcome to our family. We won't divorce or grow up and leave. You never know, someone might come up to with an outstanding offer for a car that you won't be able to refuse.

The NBA Finals start in earnest Tuesday evening, and my insides feel like I spent a year in Mexico. It is very hard for this lone sports enthusiast to find a likable team in this mess.
I will look past my personal feelings and say that I see the Miami Heat taking the trophy. The Mavericks move the ball very well and have better talent down low. I just don't see the Mavericks stopping the two-headed monster of Dwyane Wade and LeBron James.
It will be thoroughly interesting nonetheless.
Speaking of LeBron James, he is well on his way to redemption. The man that took his talents to Miami and saddled up to another superstar is being reborn.
That was quick. I knew winning cured all evils, but a few months ago this guy was lambasted for playing with the Heat. Now he is still with the Heat, only he is getting revered as Jordan-plus.
I also have Terrelle Pryor on my docket to cover. This brain surgeon understood that the program was getting investigated, yet he shows up in a new car.
Well the only way to reward the idiocy is to get him an NFL deal, something that will happen in short order I am sure.
This is Tuesday's Late Sports News, and you have been warned.

CHICAGO - I should have some good news these next coming days. Time to get to work! - Tweet from Asante Samuel minutes after the Eagles lost to the Bears.
Good news for Asante Samuel means good news for the Eagles, for defensive coordinator Sean McDermott, and, especially, for the Eagles' defensive backs.
Samuel watched the Eagles' 31-26 loss from his home. A sprained left medial collateral ligament suffered a week earlier sidelined him. Samuel said he hurt his knee returning his second interception of that game, which gave him a league-high seven picks and almost assuredly set him toward a fourth straight Pro Bowl.

People and wildlife can easily co-exist
How refreshing to read Sally Cunningham's article about rabbits and what gardeners can do to deter them from their beloved, well-tended plants. Cunningham shows a real appreciation for all of nature, respecting even the "cutie bunny's" right to existence.
My organization, Animal Advocates of WNY, has advised many city and country residents on how to deal with all kinds of wildlife, be it deer, rabbit, woodchuck, skunk or other animals who have invited themselves to partake of the bounty within their landscapes. It is very possible to co-exist with wildlife, as Cunningham has shown us, if we educate ourselves properly and take steps to make our landscape uninhabitable to those we wish to keep out. Humane solutions to wildlife problems are more effective, non-toxic and much better for our environment.

How To Make Spring Cleaning Less of a Chore
Time-Saving Tips Mean More Fun For You and Your Family
"Cleaning the house is a necessity, but it doesn't have to take away time on the weekends that you would rather spend doing something fun with your loved ones," said Natalie Brooke, Assistant Marketing Manager, Greased Lightning.
Greased Lightning offers these tips to make your chores go faster:
Multitask First - put a load of clothes into the wash and pre-treat the nastiest stains. Next, spray the bathroom sink, toilet, tub, tiles and shower curtain with a multi-purpose cleaner. While the cleaner attacks those stains, grab the vacuum. Then, wipe down the bathroom and switch out your laundry for the next load.
Barbeque Time - There is no way around it, barbecues are a pain to clean. When you're ready to cook, turn your grill on and let it come to full heat. Before cooking, take half an onion and rub it over the grill. When done cooking, repeat with the other onion half. This prevents that built-up gunk on your grill and allows your food to cook evenly.
Open That Fridge - Toss any old food and containers and be sure to wipe down the shelves. Next, load up the dishwasher and don't forget about the sponges. Sponges are a hangout for contaminants and can easily spread germs to other parts of the kitchen – sticking them in the dishwasher keeps them fresh and clean.
Make Your Kitchen Sparkle - Wipe down your countertops and cupboards to make them shine. Look for tough spots like wine stains or syrup that can seep into cracks and corners, leaving a yucky mess. And finally, before you mop, do yourself a favor and skip the broom. The vacuum is an easy way to pick up anything hiding on your kitchen floor.
An effective way to save time with your chores is to use one multipurpose product, such as Greased Lightning. Effective on most surfaces, Greased Lightning cleans clothing stains, carpet stains, pet stains, kitchens, bathrooms and even patio furniture.
Powering through chores can be easier than you think if you arm yourself with the right tips and cleaning tools. For additional information on Greased Lightning and cleaning tips, visit www.greased-

KQV/Trib Total Media Listener Poll Will you drive on the Liberty Bridge during the remainder of its rehabilitation project? <More Info>
The Liberty Bridge on Monday reopened for the first time since a fire on September 2nd that that warped a key structural steel support causing the closure of the essential south hills artery for more than 55,000 vehicles daily. Concerns about the bridge's strength remain, as state police will enforce restrictions for vehicles weighing nine tons or more. Firetrucks, school buses, tractor-trailers and Port Authority buses will be prohibited. PennDot hopes to raise the weight limit to 30 tons over the next few weeks.

—Professor Karl Braun, of Vienna, has recently published an interesting and instructive account of his last one hundred laparotomies.1 The operations, indicated by tumors in connection with the female genital apparatus, were performed in the Vienna Gynæcological University Clinic, No. 1, of the General Hospital, usually in the presence of numerous physicians and students, during the last five years —1879-1883, inclusive. The results of the operations are as follows:
Of all laparotomies, 73, or 73 per cent., recovered, 27, or 27 per cent., died; of 90 laparotomies, with exclusion of ovarian carcinoma, 70, or 77 per cent., recovered, 20, or 22 per cent., died; of 74 ovariotomies and parovariotomies, in cases of cystomata, 60, or 81 per cent., recovered, 14, or 18 per cent., died; of 10 ovariotomies in cases of ovarian carcinoma or sarcoma, 3, or 30 per cent., recovered, 7, or 70 per cent., died; of 16

M. Dolores "Dode" Quinn, 92, of Malvern, a Drexel University professor who was an authority on fashionable, functional clothing designs for the physically disabled, died Wednesday, Aug. 8, at the Otesaga Resort Hotel in Cooperstown, N.Y., where she was vacationing with family.
For almost 40 years, Miss Quinn taught fashion design and the history of costume at Drexel.
In 1977, she gave students attending a summer course the task of designing for handicapped people.
She later told a New York Times reporter that in addition to talking with nurses, therapists, and disabled people, students taped their fingers together, tried dressing with only one arm, and confined themselves in other ways to understand the dressing limitations of the disabled. The class turned out garments that were not only comfortable and easily donned and doffed, but also stylish.
