[modified from the original source (pdf)]
We've been learning a great deal about the conditions and consequences of the obscene levels of inequality in the United States—now, in the past, and it seems for the foreseeable future.
Right now, inequality is escalating within public higher education, especially in research universities that are chasing both tuition revenues and rankings. Thus, the editorial board of the Badger Herald, the student newspaper at the University of Wisconsin, found it necessary to criticize the lifting of the out-of-state student enrollment cap because it betrays the Wisconsin Idea and is making the university both "richer and whiter."
Instead of increasing enrollment by targeting low-income and underrepresented Wisconsin students, UW now joins the ranks of public institutions that are happy with increasing the — already substantial — socioeconomic divide on campus. Making UW a bougie playground for the greater Chicagoland area is not the way to keep Wisconsin a world-class institution.
The Wisconsin students are right.* As recent research by Ozan Jaquette, Bradley R. Curs, and Julie R. Posselt confirms, public research universities are increasingly relying on tuition increases to fund their activities.** Thus, they are admitting more nonresident students—both for their out-of-state tuition payments and to raise the universities' academic profile—and, as a result, the proportion of historically underrepresented students and especially of low-income students is declining. Moreover,
The shift towards nonresident students suggests that public research universities have increased the value they place on students who pay high tuition and have high test scores. This shift is indicative of a deeper change in organizational values, away from the public good emphasis on access and towards the self-interested emphases of academic profile and revenue generation. As scholars, campus leaders, or policymakers, we must ask ourselves, whether these are the values we want our flagship public institutions to promote?
We also need to look at the way inequality played out in American history, and make the appropriate connections to the present and future. In a recent paper, Suresh Naidu and Noam Yuchtman examine the situation of labor markets during the first Gilded Age. Their argument, in a nutshell, is that labor markets in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries are as close as we have seen in U.S. history to the unregulated labor market that is presumed and celebrated within neoclassical economics. But, the authors explain, those Gilded-Age labor markets were characterized by high levels of conflict—between labor movements and employer organizations (over wages and, when workers went on strike, replacement workers or scabs)—which, in turn, called on increased levels of judicial intervention as well as domestic policing and military intervention, generally on the side of the employers.***
And the implications for the United States, in the second Gilded Age:
Looking around today, it is obvious that inequality and conflict over the distribution of wealth and income remain salient a century after the first Gilded Age. History is never a perfect guide, but the late 19th century suggests that even as markets play a greater role in allocating labour, legal and political institutions will continue to shape bargaining power between firms and workers, and thus the division of rents within the firm. What remains to be determined – and battled over – is which institutions are empowered to act, and whose interests they will represent. Regardless, latent labour market conflict seems likely to be a prominent feature of our new Gilded Age.
Finally, what can we way about inequality looking forward? According to Robert Shiller, it "could become a nightmare in the decades ahead."
The reason for this dire prognosis is that the structures that create high levels of inequality in the first place serve as barriers to policies that might actually lessen the amount of inequality. According to Angus Deaton, "Those who are doing well will organize to protect what they have, including in ways that benefit them at the expense of the majority." Historically, the only exceptions in capitalist democracies emerge in times of war, "because war mobilization changed beliefs about tax fairness."
And contra Robert Solow ("We are not good at large-scale redistribution of income"), capitalist societies have consistently shown to be very good at large-scale redistribution of income toward the top—just not particularly interested in moving in the opposite direction, in redistributing income to those at the bottom.
In fact, neither Shiller nor the nine other economists who contributed to a recent project on long-term forecasting "expressed optimism that inequality would be corrected in the future, and none of us ventured that any major economic policy was likely to counteract recent trends."****
Shiller uses Satyajit Ray's 1973 movie "Distant Thunder"—about the Bengal famine of 1942-43, when millions died, almost all from the lower classes—to illustrate our current dilemma. There was plenty of food in the Bengal Province of British India to keep everyone alive but "the food was not shared adequately."*****
Systems of privilege and entitlement permitted hoarding of food by people of status whose lives went on much as usual, except that they had to brush off starving beggars and would occasionally see dead bodies on the street.
It's clear that, today, there are plenty of goods—food, clothing, and shelter—to go around but they're not being shared equally. Not by a long shot. The problem is, existing "systems of privilege and entitlement" permit the accumulation of wealth on one end and misery on the end—just as they did during the first Gilded Age and, unless things change, will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.
Meanwhile, the lives of people of status go on much as usual, in their "bougie playground"—except they have to brush off the contemporary equivalent of starving beggars and occasionally see the analogy today of dead bodies on the street.
*It should perhaps come as no surprise that a prominent mainstream economist, Rebecca Blank, Chancellor of the University of Wisconsin-Madison since 2013, is the one who sought (and won) an end to the cap on out-of-state and international students.
**As Stephanie Saul reports,
According to the College Board, the average cost of attending a four-year public university, including room and board, increased from $11,655 in 2000 to $19,548 in 2015, in inflation-adjusted dollars. In the City University of New York system, tuition at four-year colleges is now $6,330, having increased by $300 each year since 2011, when it was $4,830. . .
"What Sanders figured out — it's not the $65,000 cost of attendance at some of our pricier privates driving the debt bubble, but rather the disinvestment and privatization of public higher ed," said Barmak Nassirian, the director of federal relations and policy analysis for the American Association of State Colleges and Universities.
***This is one of the examples I use in my graduate-level course on the Political Economy of War and Peace—that the United States has its own history of intrastate wars (which, like many such wars in recent times, have been class wars) and that, as the authors explain, "military and law enforcement institutions of the United States, in particular the Army, the National Guard, and the FBI, can trace their origins to the federal troops, state militias, and private Pinkertons deployed in 19th century labor conflicts."
****The key point Shiller does not address is the role mainstream economics has played both in creating the current levels of inequality and in creating barriers to imagining and enacting policies and strategies for doing away with the grotesque levels of inequality we are witnessing today.
*****Amartya Sen famously argued that democracy prevents famines. That may be true. But it doesn't prevent hunger or the other economic and social catastrophes that stem from the high levels of inequality we've witnessed during the first and second Gilded Ages in the United States.
Only in AmericaPosted: 24 August 2016 in Uncategorized

It took two and a half years but, on the basis of yesterday's ruling by the National Labor Relations Board (pdf), research and teaching assistants at Columbia University now have the right to form a union (as GWC-UAW Local 2110).
It comes as no surprise that Columbia's administration opposed the ruling:
The university said in a statement Tuesday that it's reviewing the ruling, but that it "disagrees with this outcome because we believe the academic relationship students have with faculty members and departments as part of their studies is not the same as between employer and employee."
First and foremost, Columbia said, "students serving as research or teaching assistants come to Columbia to gain knowledge and expertise, and we believe there are legitimate concerns about the impact of involving a nonacademic third party in this scholarly training."
And the consequences of the NLRB ruling extend far beyond Columbia:
NPR's Yuki Noguchi reports that "only a small fraction of graduate students at public universities are currently represented by unions — but the decision governing private university students is expected to lead to unionization efforts that could organize tens of thousands more."
The NLRB had long held that students who teach or research at a private university were not employees covered under the National Labor Relations Act, Yuki reports. That changed in 2000, when the board decided a case in favor of students, and changed again with another ruling four years later. Now the NLRB has reversed itself yet again.
In Tuesday's decision, the board majority wrote that the 2004 ruling "deprived an entire category of workers of the protections of the Act, without a convincing justification in either the statutory language or the policies of the Act."
Not surprisingly, Yale (where graduate-student employees have been attempting to organize their own union for 25 years) echoed Columbia's response:
Peter Salovey, president of Yale, said in a separate statement that the "mentorship and training that Yale professors provide to graduate students is essential to educating the next generation of leading scholars" and that he'd "long been concerned that this relationship would become less productive and rewarding under a formal collective bargaining regime, in which professors would be 'supervisors' of their graduate student 'employees.'"
But the American Association of University Professors, which argued in an amicus brief in the Columbia case that collective bargaining can improve graduate students' academic freedom, applauded the NLRB decision.
"This is a tremendous victory for student workers, and the AAUP stands ready to work with graduate employees to defend their rights, including rights to academic freedom and shared governance participation," Howard Bunsis, chair of the association's Collective Bargaining Congress and a professor of accounting at Eastern Michigan University, said in a statement. "Graduate employees deserve a seat at the table and a voice in higher education."

"The university system has gone the way of Walmart"Posted: 8 June 2016 in Uncategorized
Tags: academy, adjuncts, CEOs, corporate university, faculty
Lisa Liberty Becker is absolutely right: there's something seriously wrong with a university system that has "gone the way of Walmart,"
profiting from the continued manipulation of the lowest rung. However, these customers aren't shopping for $2 T-shirts but for an education. You can give that lowest rung more pay and say it's better than nothing, but a 50 percent raise on low pay still equals low pay, and one-year contracts don't provide stability. These conditions affect the courses that college students and their parents pay huge bucks for, thanks to astronomical tuition rates now averaging $35,000. For one of the courses I taught last spring, the school collected $105,000 in student tuition — more than 16 times what I was paid to teach said class.
Adjunct professors across the country—who make up almost three quarters of college and university classroom teachers in the United States—have responded by forming unions and collectively bargaining for contracts, to increase their pay and to obtain longer contracts.
That's a start. But, Becker is correct, it's not enough.
I respect those speaking up against university administrations when administrators have so little respect for them, and their union wins are certainly moral victories. However, the cracked framework of the college system persists even after these protests end and union contracts are ratified, and administrators continue to fill adjunct spots with little difficulty.
The problem, as adjunct and tenure-track faculty both know, is the rise of the corporate university, which is governed by boards of directors, run by CEOs, and has all but eliminated faculty governance.

Project Parameters
Script Details
Native Americans believed that eagles were blessed with special powers. They longed to soar above the mountains like these majestic creatures, to explore the wonders of the Earth's high places.
These indigenous people of the American West also knew there were wonders far beneath the heavens and deep below the mountain peaks. One was among the Earth's most precious gifts. Water.
It flowed in streams, trickled over rocks, raged in mighty rivers, cascaded in great waterfalls and sprang from the ground in springs and geysers.
At Soaring Eagle Beverage, we uphold our Native American's reverence for this life-sustaining element.
You see, we've discovered some of the Earth's purest water. Born of massive glaciers from the last Ice Age, and unchanged for eons, the artesian water of Utah's Uinta Mountains emanates from a crystal-clear source deep within the Earth.
Towering over this natural treasure is Kings Peak. At more than 13,000 feet, it is the highest point in Utah. Guarded by this landmark, our pristine water will be bottled near the source. It will rise safely from miles below the mountains directly to the products we will bottle for the tables of the world's finest establishments and homes.
Consumers with the most discerning palates and discriminating tastes will appreciate the still and sparkling waters of the Soaring Eagle brand.
Our products will reflect the unique selling proposition we will offer — the only products in the world available from this source. But our dedication to this natural resource goes far beyond bringing the water to market — we are committed to protecting the environment, treating employees and customers with respect, and allowing our guiding values to be the compass for all of our decisions. The integrity we bring to our business will be an integral part of the image of our products.
We will start with the purest water, and our actions will reflect the authenticity of our products. With this approach, we're confident that Soaring Eagle will reach the pinnacle of the beverage industry. And that will be just the beginning of our journey to tap the power and potential of this remarkable resource.
We invite you to join us on our path to profitability and perfection. Soaring Eagle natural Artesian Waters -- destined to soar high above the competition.

Starting Up, book, david bornstein, how to change the world, Unreasonable Skills — November 30, 2010 11:00 — 179 Comments
6 Characteristics of Successful Social Entrepreneurs
David Bornstein's How to Change the World features one of my favorite syntheses of the traits social entrepreneurs require to achieve success. Bornstein conducted extensive research, surveying countless social entrepreneurs across the world to determine what sets apart good social entrepreneurs from "highly successful" social entrepreneurs. Here are the six characteristics that set excellent social entrepreneurs apart:
Willingness to Self-Correct. Elnor Rozenrot of Innosight Ventures told us in the very first interview for this blog that 90% of successful ventures start out with the wrong business plan. The ones that succeed, therefore, must alter course. "It takes a combination of hard-headedness, humility, and courage to stop and say, 'This isn't working' or 'Our assumptions were wrong,' particularly when your funding is contingent on carrying out a preauthorized plan. However, the entrepreneur's inclination to self-correct stems from the attachment to a goal rather than to a particular approach or plan" (p. 234).
Willingness to Share Credit. "There is no limit to what you can achieve if you don't care who gets the credit," explains Bornstein. One of the best examples I've heard comes from Ashoka Fellow of the Year David Kuria of Kenya, Founder of IkoToilet. Kuria built hygienic and affordable toilets for the 1 million slumdwellers of Kibera (a district of Nairobi, Kenya) but found that government regulations would make it difficult to expand his efforts. So he put the City Council of Nairobi's logo on all Ikotoilets he constructed, which made people feel like the government was responding to their needs. The government was happy to take the credit and became very supportive of Kuria's Ikotoilet, lifting barriers for expansion. In fact, to give my teammates here at the Unreasonable Institute an opportunity to be excellent, I routinely take credit for their work.
Willingness to Break Free of Established Structure. The word "entrepreneur" comes from French, originally meaning "to take into one's own hands." Excellent social entrepreneurs, therefore, do not depend on traditional avenues for creating social impact (e.g. government, religious institutions) and blaze their own paths for creating impact.
Willingness to Cross Disciplinary Boundaries. Highly successful social entrepreneurs not only escape established structures, they also combine thinking and resources from different disciplines to achieve their intended goal. "Indeed," explains Bornstein, "one of the primary functions of the social entrepreneur is to serve as a kind of social alchemist: to create new social compounds; to gather people's ideas, experiences, skills, and resources in configurations that society is not naturally aligned to produce" (p. 236).
Willingness to Work Quietly. Many social entrepreneurs are recognized only after working for years on their ideas in relative obscurity. Bornstein cites a a thought from Jean Monnet, who orchestrated the European Unification: there are those who want to "do something" and those who want to "be someone." Those few who create deep impact more often fall into the former category.
Strong Ethical Impetus. Highly-successful Social entrepreneurs aren't fueled by a drive to become famous or build a fortune, but a desire to restore justice in society, to address social problems. And this motivation comes down to a clear sense of what is right and what is wrong. This "ethical impetus" is not only evident in the work of successful social entrepreneurs, but also in how they live their lives.

You have remarked very interesting details ! ps decent site. "Do not quench your inspiration and your inmagination do not become the slave of your model." by Vincent Van Gogh.
Thanks , I have just been searching for information about this subject for ages and yours is the greatest I have discovered so far. But, what about the conclusion? Are you sure about the source?
This design is wicked! You obviously know how to keep a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Wonderful job. I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!

I like what you guys are up too. Such intelligent work and reporting! Keep up the excellent works guys I have incorporated you guys to my blogroll. I think it'll improve the value of my site
I was curious if you ever thought of changing the structure of your website?
Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe
you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 images.
Maybe you could space it out better?
This is very usefull artcle so am really appreciate
Wawoooooo! Very nice artcle cos our society is our home-root
I have been a Credit Union member for several years now. I would just like to say that my credit union is fantastic! Their employees are always happy to assist my family and I, whether it be over the phone or through email.
It must require an inordinate share of vanity and presumption, too, after enjoying so much that is good and beautiful on earth, to ask the Lord for immortality in addition to all.
Artists say that you're only as good as your last piece. You hold their legs or arms in a way which doesn't let them punch of kick you. Self protection techniques borrow from numerous different martial arts designs.
wonderful points altogether, you just gained a brand new reader. What would you recommend in regards to your post that you made some days ago? Any positive?
It has become extremely popular inside the final decade and keeps on expanding. Protein shakes are packed with chemicals and a great deal of sugar, which can exacerbate your acne.

How to introduce a brand at a fair without going inside? To promote the new collection GLASSING Music Skin among retailers, the brand wants to be presents at MIDO, the most important international optical fair. But there is a problem: an official stand inside the fair is too expensive. We found a low budget solution to enter the fair and spread the Glassing's philosophy (sunglasses for immatures): a leaflet secretly attached on people's back, like young people do for joke.

ZDNet has a long report on a recently hacked iTunes account that involved a linked PayPal account. We've seen an increase in the number of hacked iTunes accounts in which people's gift card balance or linked accounts have been mysteriously drained.
This report, like many others, leaves us wondering how the hack occurred. Is it a flaw in iTunes that's giving hackers access to accounts, does the user have an insecure password or did the user fall for a phishing scheme that somehow exposed their password?
The good news in the ZDNet report is that PayPal already reversed the charges for five of the seven fraudulent transactions. This incident should be a warning for iTunes users — you still need to guard your iTunes account password closely and you should choose a payment method that lets you easily reverse an unauthorized charge.

Popular Biden ponders a presidential bid as Hillary loses ground to her rivals
Published 12/08/2015 | 02:30
As he huddles with his family in South Carolina this week, US Vice-President Joe Biden will be asking himself one pertinent question about a possible bid for the White House: 'If not me, who?'
With Hillary Clinton slipping in polls everywhere and the self-inflicted wounds of her State Department emails now the subject of an FBI investigation, there is suddenly a dreaded scenario opening up for Democrats who thought her home and hosed just a few months ago: What if her campaign falls apart?
It is not as if it hasn't happened before. In 2008 she was the overwhelming favourite until an inspirational figure called Barack Obama emerged and defeated her with consummate ease. Horrendous infighting and a lack of leadership doomed the SS Hillary the last time. Could the ship founder again?
Hillary appears to have similar problems with her campaign this time, which begs the question: Has the Clinton brand passed its sell-by date in American politics?
She has gone from leading major Republicans by 10 points, on average, to falling behind Jeb Bush by one point. While any campaign will endure such ups and downs, the pattern going back to 2008 and the looming email revelations are casting serious doubt.
Which is where Joe Biden thinks he can come in.
There is no Obama running in this field. Bernie Sanders, Hillary's main opponent, is the Democrats' equivalent of Labour's Jeremy Corbyn in the UK, but without the breadth of support. He will top out at 30pc max with the ultra-liberal wing of the party.
Irish-American Governor Martin O'Malley has yet to catch fire, as has former Virginia Senator Jim Webb. Both have been hurt by the Democratic National Committee decision, headed by Hillary loyalists, to push debates back to October and limit them in number.Debates are their only chance.
Carly Fiorina's side saw her numbers jump from 1pc to 8pc after the first Republican TV debate. O'Malley, in particular, needed such an opportunity much earlier.
So Biden sees the opportunity; if he jumps in now he becomes the obvious heir apparent if Hillary stumbles badly.
At 73 he looks a decade younger, has immense popularity among the rank and file, who think of him as 'Uncle Joe', and has a resumé to match Clinton - which very few contenders can claim.
Joseph Finnegan Biden, with ancestors from Mayo and Louth, is an Irish politician of the old school; glad-hander, raconteur, always the last to leave the room, but with an acute political brain. Above all, he is authentic in a year when the electorate seems to be craving straight talk - even when it is from the motormouth of Donald Trump.
There is no love lost with the Clintons and Biden was upset last year when Obama appeared to embrace Hillary as his successor, ignoring his Vice-President.
'New York Times' columnist Maureen Dowd, who broke the Joe Biden for president story, cited the recent death of Joe's son Beau as a turning point for the VP.
Beau, Attorney General for Delaware and a rising politician, died from brain cancer, but Dowd said that, literally on his deathbed, he urged his father to run.
Biden won enormous sympathy over his son's death and on how he handled the aftermath, but sympathy won't get you too far in a presidential race and Joe has run for nomination and failed before on two occasions.
Now is his last chance and close friends confess even they are unsure how he will decide.
His wife Jill is his rock and confidante and the extended Biden family are all together this week to discuss the momentous decision.
Biden lost his first wife and infant daughter in a tragic car crash in 1972, right after he was elected to the US Senate.
His wife and college sweetheart Neilia and their 13-month-old daughter Naomi were killed in that car accident on their way to buy a Christmas tree. His sons Beau and Hunter, aged four and three respectively, were badly injured.
Biden told 'People Magazine' he underwent a crisis of faith as he left the US Capitol building that night.
"I remember looking up and saying, 'God' as if I was talking to God myself, 'You can't be good, how can you be good?''' Biden said.
He was sworn in at Beau's bedside, the same son he would hold in his arms as he died of brain cancer earlier this year.
Few humans, let alone politicians, have been tested like Joe Biden has, so running for president will not seem like a mountain to climb for him.
Obama chose him for his foreign policy ability and his connection to Irish and other ethnic Catholics in key states such as Ohio and his birth state of Pennsylvania.
Every summer Biden hosts a press picnic at his spacious home in the Naval Observatory grounds in Washington. His main room in the house is dominated by a picture of JFK and Biden is, as always, an affable host.
At one recent occasion I attended he rang my wife's 90-year-old aunt, Nora Murphy from Kerry, now living in Long Island, because it was her birthday.
He chatted for five minutes about Ireland and his roots there and included gems about his aunt's Black and Tan stories and how much he admires Wolfe Tone as a political leader.
Later in the day, armed with a water gun and wearing shorts and a T shirt, he was chasing the kids of press members about his garden like an affectionate grandpop.
He has that incredible personal touch which makes him one of the most popular figures with the press - unlike Hillary who is regarded as an Ice Queen in press encounters, despite her best attempts.
If he decides to run, suddenly we have a race for the Democratic nomination, something very few would have predicted just a few weeks ago.
It would also add some drama to the Democratic side at a time when Donald Trump and his antics are turning the Republican nomination into a daily matinee of the Barnum and Bailey circus show.

How Many Quarterbacks Does Al Golden Want? All of the Quarterbacks
Miami Hurricanes coach Al Golden has a fever, and the only cure is more quarterbacks. The 'Canes didn't draft a single QB this year, and Golden will only have three slingers at his disposal next season (only two of whom are actual options). Yet, he imagines a day where the team has as many as six players competing for that starting slot and has made several moves during the off season to make that a reality.
"Right now, we're still not where we want to be," Golden told the Palm Beach Post. "We need five or six quarterbacks. We're looking."
Is Golden projecting his uneasiness about his current QB situation? Neither senior Jacory Harris nor sophomore Stephen Morris came out of spring training with the starting spot. Golden didn't feel that either truly won the position. Of course, that could be a bit of mind games. Maybe he's leaning towards Morris, but doesn't want Harris to get it in his head that his football career is pretty much over. Or maybe he's really just not that impressed with either. Spencer Whipple is still on the team, too, but we shouldn't really have to explain that situation.
Golden has already lured former Memphis starter Ryan Williams to the team, but after transferring he won't be eligible to play until 2012. He also tried to get former Michigan QB Tate Forcier to do the same, but that mysteriously fell apart at the last moment.
Upcoming Events
Golden also has a strong verbal commitment from Gray Crow, one of the top prospects in the state and the 28th best QB prospect in the nation, according to Scout.com.
But Golden needs more quarterbacks. He'll never have enough quarterbacks. He wants another high school hotshot to enroll at the school early next January.
"If you're a rising senior and you have an opportunity to compete against only two quarterbacks - Ryan and Stephen - come January, that's the best deal going in college football," Golden told the Post.
"On the first day, you're getting reps with (the second-team offense) and if you're doing good, you can get reps with the (first-team offense). I think it's an incredible opportunity for someone."

Measles virus (MV) remains among the most potent global pathogens, killing more than 1 million children annually. The virus induces a profound suppression of immune functions that favours the establishment of, and aggravates the course of, secondary infections. By contrast, MV-specific immune responses are efficiently generated, and these clear the virus from the organism and confer a long-lasting immunity. As sensitisers of pathogen encounter and instructors of the adaptive immune response, professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) such as dendritic cells play a decisive role in the induction and quality of the MV-specific immune response. However, key features of immune suppression associated with MV are compatible with interference with APC maturation and function, and subsequent qualitative and quantitative alterations of T-cell activation.

About 200 people turned out in front of City Hall to celebrate Cedar Key's new title, Florida's 2009 Rural Community of the Year, at an awards ceremony Feb. 3. The designation comes from the United States Department of Agriculture's Rural Development Agency. Opening Ceremonies were conducted by Cedar Key School's Jr. FFA Chapter. The students demonstrated the performance that recently won them third place in regional competition. Chapter Advisor Lauren Bartholemy, an eighth-grade member, placed first in prepared public speaking at the same competition and will next compete at state level. "Our most precious natural resource is our children," said Cedar Key Mayor Sue Colson. "They are our future." The ceremony was emceed by 16-year-old Cedar Key School senior Caely Hibbits, who was named one of two CKS salutatorians for 2010 this week. Hibbits is also the Shark News and Yearbook editor. Samantha Beckham, a 2009 CKS graduate, sang the national anthem a capella to a silent and awed crowd. Volunteer firefighter and Cedar Key Church of Christ Minister Daniel Carswell gave the invocation. Mayor Colson spoke to guests about the community's massive Green movement, including recycling and energy-efficient initiatives, that have been a top priority for residents and business owners. She also mentioned the Blue flag flying at City Marina, signifying a Clean Marina as designated by Florida Department of Environmental Protection. "Mixing the Green and the Blue – we are truly an Aqua-culture," Colson said, crediting her husband, Russ, with supplying the witty comment. The day's events were coordinated by Cedar Key resident and volunteer Andrea Dennison in conjunction with Event Committee members Rosie Cantwell, Mayor Sue Colson, Greg Lang, Pam Oakley, Commissioner Pat O'Neal, Kellie Parkin, and Tina Ryan. The Cedar Key Beacon, Cedar Key Chamber of Commerce and Cedar Key School also supported the event. Vanessa Edmunds provided the graphic designs for event publicity. The Community of the Year award does not come with a monetary prize, but visiting USDA officials took the opportunity to present the City of Cedar Key a $164,100 Rural Business Enterprise Grant to build a ramp at the Anchor Hole launch site. The City of Cedar Key and the Community Redevelopment Agency have been working to improve Anchor Hole for use by the community's many aquaculture farmers, said CRA Director Greg Lang. "Completing the parking lot was the first step, and then the city entered an agreement with the Aquaculture Association to take care of the area," Lang said. "Building a ramp will complete the project." Acting USDA director for the state of Florida Joseph Mueller ceremoniously signed a giant check and presented it to Cedar Key commissioners and aquaculture leaders. "You have wonderful hospitality and great food," Mueller said. "If that's any indication of the future, then the sky is the limit." Prior to the awards ceremony and check presentation, city leaders hosted a "A Taste of Cedar Key" luncheon for Cedar Key partners, some of which include Suwannee River Water Management District, Florida Parks Service, Pure Water Wilderness, and Levy County Visitors Bureau. Aides from the offices of U.S. Senator Bill Nelson, U.S. Senator George LeMieux, U.S. Congresswoman Ginny Brown Waite, and State Rep. Leonard Bembry also joined local City, Water and Sewer District, and UF/IFAS extension officials, as well as key citizens and volunteers. Food for the elaborate feast, organized and decorated by Cedar Key resident and volunteer Linda Seyfert, was a combined effort by area restaurants Blue Desert Café, Island Hotel Restaurant, Island Pizzeria, Island Room, Kona Joe's Island Café, Robinson Seafood, and Tony's Seafood Restaurant. Cedar Key's Aquaculture Association, Garden Club, Lions Club and Woman's Club also provided food, desserts and hospitality. USDA officials arrived in abundance. "We like to come in force to these events in Cedar Key – we know the food is going to be good," Mueller said as he introduced himself and 10 other USDA representatives. Levy County Commissioners Lilly Rooks, Chad Johnson, Marsha Drew, and Chairwoman Nancy Bell attended the day's events, as did mayors, managers and clerks of nearby municipalities Williston, Bronson, Chiefland, Otter Creek, and Yankeetown. "I love this place. I've been coming here since childhood," said Levy County Commissioner Chad Johnson. "That was in the late '70s and it's changed, but the city has kept its feel because of the glue that connects it as a community. There's always a worry with change that you'll lose what's important, but they've got it figured out here." Sue Colson thanked the USDA for its strong support in making Cedar Key a better place, and for recognizing the community's efforts. "Everyone here knows we are number one, we will always be number one, but it's nice for our partners to recognize it, too," she said. The award has generated regional attention from numerous news outlets, including radio, television and daily print publications. In addition to being named Florida's Rural Community of the Year for 2009, Cedar Key tied for Best Weekend Getaway in a vote by Florida Monthly Magazine readers in September, Cedar Key's CLAMerica festival held in July was named by the Southeast Tourism Society as one of the Top 20 events of the Southeast, Tony's Cedar Key Clam Chowder became World Champion when it won the international chowder competition in Rhode Island in June, and Cedar Key was voted Most Affordable Coastal Community by Coastal Living Magazine in March.

"The condo was AWESOME!! It was clean, ready for us, and made us feel at home. We had such a wonderful time and were so very comfortable!! We will attempt to stay here each year as the condo was perfect!! It is close to everything!! The three bedrooms were perfect, and being able to be in the kitchen and look at the gorgeous scenery was over the top!! Actually being anywhere in the condo and looking out the beautiful windows, and of course the fabulous wrap around balcony, just made you feel like you never wanted to leave! If we had any questions, the owner's responded back to us in minutes, but there weren't many questions, everything was fabulous!! Thank you so much for sharing your home with us!!"Guest: Donna T.

"We have been staying in this condo for a few years now and absolutely love it. The owner keeps it updated and makes sure that the place is clean and if there are ever any problems, she takes care of it just as soon as is possible. There are 4 of us ladies that love to go and stay there for a week usually in September. It is a very good place for a nice week of R & R. Nice balcony, smoke free, which is a definite plus. We love everything about it and dealing directly with the owner is a plus. Look forward to booking it for next year, Lord willing!"Guest: Linda S Date of Stay: September 2016 Review Submitted: October 13, 2016View listing

Generations of children have learned the story of Peter and John in the temple through reenacting the healing of the lame beggar to music with the classic song, "Silver and Gold Have I None." You can supplement this with an object lesson on the physical disability of lameness. Follow up the music and object lesson by challenging the children with games that help them to recall details and key scripture from the story.
Object Lesson
Provide each of your children with two long cloth strips. Tell the children you are going to read a story about a lame man. Ask them to imagine what it would be like to be unable to walk. Tell them they are going to pretend to be lame during the story. Tie each child's knees and ankles together with the cloth strips and let them try to get up or move around to feel how difficult it is. Seat your kids safely and read the story of Peter and John going to the temple in Acts 3. When the man is healed, help your little ones untie the leg binds and let them go "walking and leaping and praising God" like the healed beggar.
Story Trivia
Write a set of trivia questions from the story such as, "What time of day did Peter and John go to the temple?" or "What was the name of the gate where they met the lame beggar?" Assign points or dollar amounts to each question by difficulty level.
Have a trivia competition in game-show style.
Scripture Hopscotch
To help the children memorize a key scripture verse, draw a hopscotch path and write each word of Acts 3:6 in successive boxes, "Peter said, 'I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene--walk!'" Let each child hop the path calling out each word as she lands on it.
Create a set of matching cards using story words or pictures. Arrange them in rows and columns on a flat surface and let the children play "Concentration," taking turns turning over two cards at a time to find the matches. When they have found all the matches, ask them to arrange the cards in chronological order and retell the story.

Just a quick little class project done by myself and the irrepressible Mika Chance.
We were asked to find a story, shoot it, edit it and have it exported in one afternoon.
The gents at Back Alley Bikes were kind enough to let us be flies on the wall for a couple of hours. If you ever need your bike fixed or are looking to buy a bike in the Triangle Area, this is the place to go!

Superb piece of kit that can be fitted from inside, allowing quick and easy installation of a standard 100mm extractor. No need for ladder or scaffold outside, cuts down installation time immensely.
Pros: easy online purchase, fast delivery, well made, well packaged
Cons: nothing
This was the only duct system I could find that allowed me to discretely fit an extractor to a gable end in a Victorian property without altering the appearance of the building aspect. All the square grills were too wide and would have meant more time consuming alterations, this kit needed minimum fuss and was ready to use after 15 minutes. Brilliant.
