The People Behind the Wine
John Shafer
It was the lure of wine country farming that inspired John Shafer in 1972 to make a career change, leaving behind 23 years of corporate experience to begin work in a new field. And in the fields, or rather the vineyards, is exactly where John began his new career. Adopting a hands-on approach from day one, John could be seen throughout the mid-70s riding on his tractor as he tilled the soil of his family's new estate in the foothills of the Stags Leap Palisades.
It was during this period that he, along with his son Doug, learned the intricacies of
hillside grapegrowing as they toiled many long hours terracing the hillsides, replanting
and expanding the vineyards. With each passing year, they learned more about the nature
of grapegrowing in the Stags Leap District, one of the world's best regions for the
cultivation of Cabernet Sauvignon. What began for John as a career in viticulture, quickly expanded into full-scale winemaking. In 1978, the first Shafer wine
was made and a year later construction began on the family winery. The debut wine, a
Cabernet Sauvignon, was released in 1981 to a chorus of high praise and awards,
including a first place in the San Francisco Vintners Club Cabernet taste-off. Over fifteen
years later, this wine continues to prove its remarkable ageability, winning first place in a
1993 German blind tasting against first growth Bordeaux wines.
Spearheading a family effort, John sets the tone for Shafer Vineyards through his casual style. A visitor to the winery will most often encounter John striding through the winery, clad in blue jeans and boots with Tucker, the family dog, in tow.
In 1994, John moved from the position of president to chairman of the board. In his new position, he focuses on long-range strategic planning and export sales.
"I'll never forget the Napa Valley Vintners' 1981 Wine Symposium and the debut of our
first vintage, the 1978 Shafer Cabernet Sauvignon. Because I was the new kid on the
block, all the big shots of winedom were coming by to taste my first release. Commenting
on how well-developed and soft this Cabernet was for a wine that hadn't even been
released yet, many asked the same question: 'How much Merlot did you add?'"
"'None' was my reply. The truth was the first wine I made was 100% hillside Cabernet because that was all I had. But the tasters kept asking about Merlot."
"One of them, a wine buyer, was especially persistent. Returning a second time, he slipped behind my table, lowered his voice and swore to secrecy if I let him in on it: 'How much Merlot did you blend?'"
"What I didn't know then, but realized later, was that the persistent wine buyer had identified the most prominent attribute of Cabernet grown in the Stags Leap District: the silky, supple, velvety tannins that don't require softening by the addition of Merlot."
"It was that distinct character so strongly identified with this region that prompted me, four years later, to head up a committee of growers and vintners in petitioning the government to designate this region the Stags Leap District appellation, now recognized worldwide for its Cabernet Sauvignon."
John played a pivotal role in the establishment of the prestigious Stags Leap District appellation. A dynamic leader, he tirelessly works to broaden international awareness of the nature and quality of the wines of the Stags Leap District.
The People Behind the Wine
Doug Shafer
Doug Shafer arrived in Napa Valley at age 17 when he moved with his family from the Chicago suburbs in 1973 to a new home in the rugged foothills of the Stags Leap Palisades.
His first few years in the Valley proved to be formative ones. Throughout his junior and senior years of high school he spent long hours helping his father replant and then clear land for new vineyards. The enjoyment he took working outdoors among the vines inspired him to enroll in the enology and viticulture program at the University of California at Davis.
While completing his university studies, Doug spent summers working with his father in the vineyards while further expanding his understanding of the wine industry working at Hanns Kornell and Robert Mondavi wineries. Meanwhile, his father was preparing to crush the first vintage of wine in 1978. Following graduation, Doug honed his skills as assistant winemaker at Lakespring Winery prior to becoming winemaker at Shafer Vineyards in 1983.
Family Winemaker
During his ten years as winemaker, Doug forged the trademark Shafer style of quality, consistency, and elegance. Vintage by vintage, he learned to highlight the natural character of the grapes from his family's hillside vineyards, crafting wines that reflect the Stags Leap District character of rich fruit and silky tannins. During this period he also managed the estate vineyards, launching the winery on the road to sustainable farming developing a new 66-acre vineyard in the Carneros district, the source for Red Shoulder Chardonnay.
Winery President
In 1994, Doug took over the reins as president when his father John became chairman of the board and Elias Fernandez became winemaker. As president, Doug continued to refine the Shafer wine portfolio working closely with Elias to develop a vineyard in the foothills of the Vaca Mountains that would be the source for the Syrah and Petite Sirah of Relentless, which in 2012 was named Wine Spectator's Wine of the Year. He also purchased a 25-acre hay field in Stags Leap District, developing it into the predominant vineyard source for One Point Five Cabernet Sauvignon.
Doug Shafer has been the recipient of numerous awards and honors throughout his career including the 2010 James Beard Foundation Award for "Outstanding Wine and Spirits Professionals" which he shared with his father.
In 2012 University of California Press published A Vineyard in Napa, Doug's critically acclaimed memoir, recounting 40 years inside the Napa Valley wine industry. Associated Press called the book "... [a] true-life story of one of the great success stories of the American wine industry." Forbes declared it "... a charming and refreshingly honest story with a happy ending."
As president Doug Shafer continues to oversee the daily operations of the winery and vineyards as well as sales and marketing. He maintains a hands-on approach, personally meeting as many winery guests as he can and working closely with his father and winemaker Elias Fernandez to ensure both the quality of the wines and the future of Shafer Vineyards.
Long-term, Doug is committed to preserving Shafer as a small family winery dedicated to the production of world-class wines from the estate vineyards.
The People Behind the Wine
Elias Fernandez
Elias Fernandez has been making wine at Shafer Vineyards for more than 30 years. Working side by side with John and Doug Shafer, he has played an integral role in forging a style of boldness and elegance that has been embraced by wine lovers throughout the world.
Elias earned his success in part because he knows Napa Valley vineyards from the roots up. He knows first-hand what it's like to work in 100-degree heat among dusty vine rows as well as the difficulties of pruning vines in the freezing winter pre-dawn light.
Elias' father came to the U.S. from Michoacan, Mexico and worked in the San Joaquin Valley as a farm laborer. His mother was born in Napa Valley where her father was a laborer who helped build the rail line that runs through Yountville.
Both parents picked prunes and walnuts in the days before wine grapes became the predominant crop in the Valley. Some
of Elias' earliest memories are in these orchards.
In junior high, Elias started working in vineyards with his father where he learned to drive tractors, train and prune grapevines and from both parents he learned the value of hard work and self- reliance.
"From my dad I learned a lot of common sense things — working with people, driving a tractor, fixing trellis systems and everyday work in the vineyard," Elias says. "From my mom I learned that I needed an education."
In third grade with his mother's encouragement he had started playing the trumpet in the school band. He played all the way through high school and distinguished himself to such a degree that he received a Fulbright music scholarship to attend the Jazz program at the University of Nevada, Reno. He is the first person in his family to go to college.
After a year in Reno Elias says something just "clicked" and he began to feel an urge to return to his agricultural roots.
"I started to look around Napa Valley and realized what a beautiful place this is," he says. "I began to think, 'what about winemaking?'"
His mother asked around to help Elias get an idea of what kind of prospects such a venture might offer. She came back to him shaking her head. The news wasn't good.
"Everyone told her it didn't look like there was a big future in winemaking," he says.
Even so, in 1981 he enrolled at University of California, Davis to study enology, the science of winemaking.
"I went from studying music to science," he says, recalling the difficulty of the switch.
His first chemistry class was held in an auditorium with 1,000 other students.
"It was overwhelming," he says. "You have to remember where I came from — my graduating class at St. Helena High was just over 100 kids."
During his college years, Fernandez grew more knowledgeable through internships at local wineries including Schramsberg Vineyards, Louis Martini Winery and Cuvaison — learning bottling lines, cellar operations, how to drive a forklift and more.
Three weeks before graduation, in 1984, he was hired as assistant winemaker at Shafer Vineyards working with Doug Shafer.
The winery was then just five years old. Those first ten years were some of the hardest of his life.
"We were still learning how a winery works — how to crush, how to get the juice into the tank, how to get it out. It was trial and error. We started off crushing white grapes like red. And we weren't exactly ringing the bell on wine scores either," he recalls. "Thank God we were young because we worked ourselves to death."
For several years Elias shared co-winemaker duties with Doug Shafer. Then in 1994 Doug became winery president and Elias took on the winemaker title with all of its duties. Over time, life at Shafer Vineyards became less about logistics and more about constantly improving the way they crafted their wine. The team of John Shafer, who started the winery, Doug Shafer, his son, winery president, and Fernandez worked together to create a "house style" of wine that is bold and elegant.
In 2002 both Quarterly Review of Wines and Food & Wine magazine named Elias "Winemaker of the Year." Shafer Vineyards was selected as one of the "25 Great Vineyards in the World" by Wine & Spirits magazine.
On October 2, 2002 he accepted a prestigious "Hall of Fame" award from the Hispanic Scholarship Fund in Washington D.C. and attended a White House reception hosted by President George W. Bush.

Skip to comments.Mike Pence's Options- Conservative leaders are beating the drum for a Mike Pence presidential run
Posted on 01/18/2011 9:59:17 AM PST by pissant
Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels may not be the only Hoosier seeking the Republican nomination for president in 2012. The rumors started swirling over the weekend that Rep. Mike Pence could be throwing his hat in the ring as well.
Conservative leaders are certainly beating the drum for a Pence run. This week, Mr. Pence will receive a letter of support for a presidential bid from, among others, Dick Armey, a former Republican House majority leader; Brent Bozell, president of the Media Research Center; and Morton Blackwell, president of the Leadership Institute.
There is also a petition circulating on the Internet to draft Mr. Pence for president. It is being spearheaded by former Rep. Jim Ryan and former Reagan official Ralph Benko, who has close ties to the conservative blogging community and the tea party movement. We're also told that a coalition of conservative state legislators in South Carolina is urging Mr. Pence to run and promising to do all it can to carry the early primary state for the congressman. Mr. Pence also enjoys the support of two former GOP congressmen from IndianaDavid McIntosh and Chris Chocola, who now runs the Club for Growth. "Mike has a Reagan quality to him that is lacking in many of the other first tier Republican candidates," said Mr. McIntosh.
Mr. Pence won the straw poll at a gathering of more than 1,000 social conservatives in Washington, D.C., over the summerbesting Newt Gingrich, Mike Huckabee, and presumptive front-runner Mitt Romney. One concern is what Sarah Palin's intentions are, since she would have a huge funding base if she runs. But the pro-Pence movement fears that she is highly polarizing and someone who would have a difficult time beating President Obama in the general election.
(Excerpt) Read more at online.wsj.com ...
This conservative is beating the drum for a Sarah Palin Presidency.
No matter what, we will have a ton of candidates this election which is great. Four conservatives at least (Pence, Palin, Cain, Bachmann) and those are the only ones I can think of off hand. This is going to be a most exciting primary and I can't wait for the debates. They are going to be something to watch.
You're gonna have quite the inner conflict if he runs and picks Palin as his VP running mate, aren't you?
Actually, he's the one person, other than Palin, that I could get behind.
Gomer, Mittens and Newt can KMA right now and get it over with.
The debates will need to be 4 hours long just so all 25 candidates can get one question.
Pence is good. So is DeMint. So is Ryan. So is Barbour.
Here's a name I'd like to float - Butch Otter. Gov. of Idaho. From all I've heard to date, he seems eminently qualified, both experience-wise and ideologically.
The more the better - at least at the start. We need more than just 2008's retreads (Huckabee, Romney, even Palin). Time to bring in some new blood into the GOP leadership caste.
Neither Otter nor my other gubner of choice, Mike Rounds (who just finished his 2nd and last term) have made any noises about running.
Conservative leaders or Republican leaders?
Pence isn't bad but he's late. heh
Nominating anyone other than Sarah Palin is akin to supporting the status quo. I like Pence but he would not be effective as president.
I've not heard of Rounds - which state?
True enough...but then again, before he picked her, who (besides myself, toot my own horn) had heard of Sarah Palin?
It's not that I dislike here - I just think it's unhealthy for conservatives to be fixating on her the way so many are, to the exclusion of many other potentially fine candidates. We don't like "anointed" candidates who are pre-picked for us, so why are we making Palin into the same?
Assuming they actually found 1000 true conservatives in Washington, that's not a necessarily a ringing endorsement in my book.
Late for what? Not one person has officially started running yet. He has plenty of time. When did McCain decide to run? When did Obama? You can be late for dinner but late for running for President two years out. The only ones that was horribly late last time round was Rudy (which was good) and Thompson who never started.
I like Mike P. He's a Tea Partier. But I don't think he's ready for the top of the ticket. Better move to shoot for VP.
This conservative is beating the drum for a Sarah Palin Presidency.
Late for what? The primary season doesn't even START for another year. If we've already anointed Sarah Palin and have decided to close it off already, then we might as well throw in the towel now.
The person should have started running January of 2009.
The problem is whomever wins is gonna need a minimum $250 million war chest for the general election. No Newt, Mo Mott, No RINOs.
The media and ALL of TV are behind the muslim. O'Reilly and Beck are major Obama stooges now - they are also anti-birthers. I was done with ALL TV election night 2008 when the fox gang was giddy over the coup takeover by Islam. My guess is Prince Al Waleed gave them all bonuses.
I still don't understand how people on a supposedly conservative site can be so ignorant of politics.
No, a large number of conservatives will NOT be great. It will split the conservative base vote and allow the establishment RINO to win with a plurality.
They do this to us every time. The establishment knows how to get it's candidate, and they know something that many of us apparently can't comprehend..the one with the most votes wins.
You can win with 30% if you can get the conservatives to split between several candidates, thus making their votes inconsequential.
Look at this parade of RINO's...and ask yourself how come we are always faced with supporting these guys in a so called conservative party? People blame the RNC for sticking us with these moderates, but it is our votes that could stop them.
Nixon, Ford, Bush, Dole, Bush, McCain, Romney?
The establishment is playing Chess while we are trying to figure out if we want to be black or red in a game of checkers. We need to rally behind a SINGLE conservative en masse to get a conservative candidate.
I've said this before, and it is becoming more clear every day...a vote for anyone other than Governor Palin is a defacto vote for Romney.
The latest hope of the 'Stop Sarah' crowd.
That buzz is between your ears.
"stop sarah', my a**. How about a draft a Reaganite. Which Palin most definitely is not. Peddle your Palin coronation to someone else.
No, a large number of conservatives will NOT be great.
I want to have a choice of conservatives who I want to vote for instead of one like last year.....Huckster.....Yuk! Sorry but your nonsense does not cut it for me. Remember that we at the end of the primary season only have a small choice. At least with 10 or more to chose from we can get a decent pick. Don't tell me you are from Iowa and get all the bundles of love. Well most of us are not and we want good choices.
Whatever Happened to Mike Pence? by Phyllis Schlafly
Say It Aint So, Mike: The Pence immigration plan has let conservatives down by Rep. Steve King
"the buzz is growing louder each day."
Then I suggest you reduce your meds.
You must be right, we always nominate a strong rock ribbed conservative...boy those establishment Republicans are DUMB!!
Trying to foist Dole, McCain and Romney on us...
It's great we can choose from Duncan Hunter and Tom Tancredo and Fred Thompson and Mike Huckabee and Alan Keyes and Herman Cain and Mike Pence and on and on and on...we conservatives just love these guys and our vote is a purity test!
This isn't about nominating a potential president, it's about seeing if we're smart enough to discern who the most conservative candidate is. I think pissant is winning...the country, not so much.
Just today I heard a local radio talk show host say he will be having Pence on his show. BTW, I'm in Iowa which makes me think it's a possibility.
If the rumors from last week are true he just might run for president.
Last week I heard Daniels was NOT going to run and instead would be backing Haley Barbour, and if Daniels didn't run, Pence probably would.
I guess they think two guys from Indiana might be a bit much.
I think if Sarah announces the field is going to shrink very fast. There are over a dozen considering it, but they are all waiting to see what the girl does.
Such men of conviction!
>> I just think it's unhealthy for conservatives to be fixating on her <<
Oh heavens! Don't tell me! Are you suggesting there's some kinda PPDS (Pro-Palin Derangement Syndrome) hereabouts?
My local retreads, Rep.Dan Burton and Sen. Dan Coats are back in DC, thanks to 4-5 other very good candidates splitting the Primary tickets. I don't believe either one came close to 50% of the total vote.
Not necessarily, but I DO think it's a bit stultifying to take a "Sarah or nobody" sort of attitude, especially this early in the game. There are plenty of fine conservatives out there besides here - a lot of them MORE conservative than she is. I'm open to entertaining them as possibilities for 2012.

Not to point fingers, but Palin isn't exactly a rose on this issue, either...
"Nominating anyone other than Sarah Palin is akin to supporting the status quo. I like Pence but he would not be effective as president."
I hate personal attacks,so please forgive me, but this is by far the dumbest thing I've ever read. Can you name me one position of Sarah Palin's that is actually conservative? more specifically, can you name one position of Sarah Palin's that is to the right of the typical GOP talking points?
Any hope of King still running? I actually like King more than Pence. He's one of the few more conservative than Pence and subscribes to the Hunter philosophy more closely.
Pence also has come around and decided NO AMNESTY of any kind is warranted.
You are correct, sir. She still supports amnesty.
I'll try and explain my statement to you in a way you might better understand. What I mean by "the status quo" is the inside-the-beltway elites. As good a conservative as Pence is, he is also tainted by serving in that cesspool. I've come to realize that those good ol' boys are more interested in preserving their power than reforming the way government works. The place is so damned corrupt that an outside leader is needed to begin the arduous task of cleaning up the town.
Sarah Palin has a proven track record of rooting out corruption. She also went through the budgets of Alaska as governor and Wasilla as mayor,line by line, trimming unnecessary spending as much as possible. She adamantly supports energy exploration, a strong defense, support for Israel, cutting spending and taxes and reducing regulations on business. She has also taken everything the left has thrown at her while, at the same time, getting very little support from elected Republicans, including Pence. As to the elected Republicans not publicly supporting her, my question is why? Lack of courage? Afraid of the media? Or is it for the same reasons as the left, that they feel she is a threat to their base of power?
Now, as for Pence, he is a great conservative congressman, imo. If he truly wants to make a difference, he would stay in the congress and fight for needed reforms. Or he could, as some want him to do, run for governor of Indiana. He needs to prove he has administrative skills before he is ready for the presidency. Just being a conservative and holding conservative views isn't enough.
BTW, typical GOP talking points have proven to be just that, merely talking points. If it weren't for the tea party movement, there wouldn't be anything accomplished and I need to yet see if the current members of congress have learned the lessons of the last election. The days of just saying what people want to hear to be elected and then discarded are over. Either produce or you're fired!
decent answer but it does not apply to Pence. Pence made his name opposing the leadership of his party and is actually loathed by the party insiders. He was actually blamed for losing the house in 06 because he told the truth about the GOp... he then ran for leader and received all of 25 votes...basically Pence spent 4 years running down (in public) the leadership (and president) of his own party(he obviously has toned it down since 08 but he did not sell out on TARP and other things)...put in another way...staus quo would be someone Ted Stevens could have gotten along with...pence certainly is not that (for now)
I wonder what made him come around? And exactly how does he define amnesty? McCain said he is against amnesty and McCain-Kennedy was not an amnesty bill. Even Obama is against amnesty.
ethanol...pork...medicare D...King is great(top 20) but NOT to the right of Pence.
King has said previously that he will support Pence for POTUS.(a lot can happen between then and now)
Pence would be behind Palin and Cain as far as Im concerned.
What made him come around? Reality that conservatives detested him for his limp-wristed "compromise". He got a rash of sh*t from Hunter, Tanc, King, and all the real conservatives, as well as his constituents.
You're right that when many conservatives split the vote, a RINO can win with a plurality — IF the primary is winner-take-all as in 2008.
I thought that was being changed, though, to provide more proportional splitting of delegates, like the Dems do, which would make a big difference. Will the 2012 primaries still be winner-take-all?
They all have some flaws. Pence voted to extend unemployment benefits, King did not. Pence proposed a disastrous amnesty plan, King opposed it every step of the way. Pence voted to give billions to Mexico for its war on drugs. King said NO.
There is no way anyone can convince me that Pence is more conservative than King. Close, yeah. But that's it.
Has she ever named a single federal department or agency that she would get rid of?
I have no idea his name ID nationally but I would think it should be pretty good. He's certainly all over the TV. He and Bachmann are very good friends so I don't know what they have planned. Pence is also a friend.
Too bad I can't appoint the president. I keep saying I would pay to see the debate between King and "The Teleprompter".
Yes, and I do understand that 100% of th eamensty pimpos like McCain, Graham, Palin, and even old Kennedy said that their amnesty was not amnesty. Pay a few shekels to become legal here, and voila, not amnesty. *barf*
Try again:

The issues with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company's 40nm and 32nm fabrication technologies have caused a massive gloom around the industry in the recent quarters. But according to some optimistic analysts, TSMC plans to finally initiate production of low-power chips using 28nm process technology.
A report from China Economic News Service claims that TSMC plans to start production of Altera's field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) in Q4 2010 using a 28nm process technology, which will mostly likely be 28LP, which uses previous-generation materials, such as poly gate and silicon oxide nitrate. Interestingly, but even if optimist market watchers are to be believed, production of 28LP chips seems to be behind the schedule.
According to claims by a senior executive of TSMC back in February, the company intended to start producing chips using 28LP in Q3 2010, not sometimes in the fourth quarter.
"The first node we are going to release for the 28nm will be called the 28LP. This is our poly gate and silicon oxide nitrate version. We will establish production at the end of June this year, about four months from now, and this is for the low power application," said Shang-Yi Chiang, senior vice president of R&D at TSMC at TSMC Japan Executive Forum in Yokohama.
Even though technically TSMC is ahead of all companies making various types of processors or logic in terms of 28nm node, its 28LP process not only uses old materials, but even with this one TSMC is late by one quarter from its own schedule.
TSMC did not comment on the news-story.

Yoga injuries are on the rise. Here�s why.
Jill Abelson�a yoga instructor, teacher trainer, author and workshop presenter�had been practicing yoga for over two decades. But one day, while easing her way into a headstand at a yoga studio in Miami, the seasoned yogi tweaked her neck and ended up in the E.R. a few hours later. Not long before that, Jill had suffered another yoga-related injury when an instructor over-adjusted her neck, accidentally pinching a nerve in her left arm. We tend to view yoga as a gentle, restorative exercise, one that heals the body rather than breaking it down. But as the practice of yoga continues to explode in popularity, spawning more vigorous and athletic offshoots, downward doggers are becoming saddled with yoga-related injuries�from minor wrist tendonitis to neck injuries to, in rare cases, sciatic nerve damage. �There�s something serious going on in the world of yoga,� says Abelson, an Advanced Certified Jivamukti Yoga teacher and renowned expert on alignment, injury prevention and hands-on assists. �Injuries are becoming more and more common, and we need to figure out why this is happening.� Abelson suspects that there are three reasons for the rise in yoga-related injuries. One culprit, she thinks, is the shifting economics of yoga. Once a fringe practice, yoga has morphed into a moneymaking industry, with studios seeing a revolving door of clients daily. A recent survey indicates that a whooping 20 million Americans are rolling out their mats in an effort to reap the well-documented mind-body benefits of yoga. And almost half of these yogis�45 percent�identify themselves as beginners. �Historically, yoga was a tradition in which instructors catered to individual students. It was one teacher, one student,� Abelson says. �It was a much more personal relationship. You got to know the student over time�you got to know their body and their normal range of motion.� But as yoga moves towards a volume-based business, with larger class formats and less one-on-one instruction, newbies aren�t always getting the individualized attention that they need. At some trendy studios, it�s not uncommon to see 100 students crammed into a classroom, Abelson notes. Coupled with the fact that newly-certified, less-experienced yoga instructors are flooding the workforce in droves, many yogis simply aren�t getting the proper instruction they need. �It creates a challenging situation, both for the students in the room and for the teachers who are responsible for the whole group,� Abelson says. �You�ll go to a group class and see people who have no idea what�s going on, but they�re not getting the right attention.� Additionally, some of the more vigorous styles of yoga�such as Bikram or power yoga�can foster a competitive environment and a �no pain, no gain� mentality. In order to keep up with the more flexible or experienced students in class, overzealous yogis might force their bodies into unnatural contortions, potentially leading to injury. RELATED: Is Hot Yoga Too Good To Be True? Abelson has identified two categories of injuries that arise from yoga. The first type is �immediate� injuries, which happen on the spot. These include pinched nerves, torn hamstrings, neck injuries and so forth. The second, more common type is called progressive injuries, and they develop over a period of time, usually due to overuse. �As a teacher, the most common injuries I�ve seen are progressive injuries of the wrists, shoulders and lower back, correlating to Sun Salutations overdone and executed incorrectly over a long period of time,� Jill says. So does this mean that you should steer clear from yoga? Of course not. Any physical activity, whether it be hockey or cycling or yoga, inherently poses risk of injury. When practiced correctly and safely, yoga can do a body good in many ways. It promotes increased flexibility, sculpts a stronger core, eases lower back pain, and lengthens and tones the muscles. Not to mention, yoga boasts some stellar psychological outcomes, from sunnier outlooks to better bedroom performance to more quality shut-eye. Still, as with most things, it's better to be safe than sorry. Below, Abelson offers some guidelines to minimize injury risk during your yoga practice. Choose a class level that�s appropriate for you. Many beginners sign up for advanced or mixed-level classes that aren�t suitable for their level of experience, Abelson says. �People think, �Oh, I�m fit and athletic�I don�t need a beginner class,�� she says. �But in the big, mixed level classes, you�re not going to get the individualized attention you need.� If you�re a first-timer, it�s important to take a beginner-level class so that you can learn the basic poses and establish a good foundation for your practice. ��Just like you wouldn�t go to an intermediate German class when you only know a few words of German, you have to start with a style of yoga that�s right for you,� Abelson adds. Leave your ego behind. Don�t focus on what the person next to you is doing. Yoga is about a culture of acceptance. Work at your own pace, be realistic about your abilities, and accept your limitations. If you try to achieve a "perfect" pose, you might push yourself toward injury. Begin with the basics. Right off the bat, it�s important to know the proper alignment for the most common poses. If you�re taking a Vinyasa style class, this would include chatarunga, downward-facing dog, warriors 1 and 2, and triangle pose. �Knowing the correct alignment and the correct details really matters. It helps you to work independently and safely during class,� Abelson says. Listen to your body. This is true of all athletic activities, but especially yoga. Yoga is all about cultivating mindfulness of the breath and the body. Know when your body�s telling you to ease up, and never push yourself past your limits. �Students really have to accountable for their own bodies,� Abelson adds. Ask for help. �If you need modifications or want a certain pose broken down, don�t be afraid to approach the teacher after class and ask them to walk you through it,� Abelson says.� Don�t be afraid to use props or modifications. Beginners might not be flexible or strong enough to perform certain poses. �There�s no shame in using props�they can help you go deeper into the pose,� Abelson says. Likewise, you shouldn�t be afraid to modify certain challenging poses (for example, lowering onto your knees during chatarunga). Ultimately, although it carries a slight risk of injury, yoga's benefits far outweigh its risks. Even though yoga is the workout du jour, chances are this 5,000-year old practice will be sticking around for awhile.�In the next few years, Abelson anticipates a gradual shift back toward yoga�s roots. �I think the industry will settle back into a place where the tradition of yoga, the history behind it, becomes important again,� she says. "We�re going to recognize that the practice has deep, ancient roots that are really important in modern times." This article originally appeared as on Spry Living

Jennifer began working at Grinnell College in 1989 as an associate dean in student affairs and later as dean of students. While she was overseeing the residence life program during the late 1990s, the Pancake Study Break began and it continues today. Bear, a Bernese Mountain Dog, greeted students in the early years of this event. Beginning in 2003, Jennifer has organized the therapy dog group for Pancake Study Breaks and other events on campus.
In 2007, Jennifer left student affairs to create Accessibility Services and the Accessibility Committee. The purpose of the Accessibility Committee was to educate the College community in a "grass roots" manner on accessibility issues and ADA compliance, and to move the College beyond compliance. Jennifer worked with other administrators in 2008 to establish an accommodation policy for employees and became the ADA coordinator. The Accessibility Committee took on the task of identifying and prioritizing areas of the campus that needed to be made accessible.
In addition to these responsibilities, in 2009 Jennifer was asked by the dean to serve as the IACUC Coordinator and work with faculty to implement a compliant IACUC committee and obtain a PHS Assurance. On March 29, 2010, the College's PHS Assurance became effective. In 2011 Jennifer was asked to take on the responsibilities of the IBC Coordinator and work with faculty to establish an IBC that became fully functional January 2012.
Jennifer continues to chair the Accessibility Committee, serves as the ADA Coordinator, IACUC Coordinator, and IBC Coordinator, and organizes dogs for the Pancake Study Break each semester.

There is so much in Sydney, Australia to fall in love with: the opera house, the stunning beaches, the glittering water, the beautiful people. Australia as a whole is intensely beautiful, and Sydney, the oldest and biggest city in Australia, is no exception. It's interesting to note that a full third of the population of Sydney is from another country, making it the most cosmopolitan city in the entire world. There is much to discover about this beautiful city. If you are considering traveling to Australia or any other place outside of the United States, be sure to obtain a passport. Passport renewal expedited service is available online if you want to avoid the traditional passport waiting time.
Passport services can help you fulfill any sort of passport issue you have, from US passport extra pages to replacing damaged or misplaced passports.
Sydney is divided into several districts. Depending on what sort of city experience you're seeking, you should spend most of your time in the ones that better suit your preferences. For example, if you want to experience famous attractions and great shopping, you would look to spend a lot of your time in the City Centre district. The Rocks district is a more colonial and historical side of Sydney. Darling Harbor is the district for entertainment, aquariums, and museums. Be sure to do a little research before you leave to decide what's best for you.
There are some very distinct landmarks you will not want to miss while you're visiting Sydney. These include the famous Harbor Bridge, the Opera House, Olympic Park, and Sydney Tower.
Australia is famous for its wildlife, and Sydney is one of the best places to experience the unique collection of fauna just short of traveling into the Outback. The Teronga Zoo is not only one of the most beautiful zoos in the world, it is also one of the most famous. The Koala Park Sanctuary is an excellent place to meet some of Australia's mascots face to face, and Sydney Aquarium and Sydney Wildlife World, both located right next to each other in Darling Harbor, are some other great places to see some wildlife. Whale watching is a truly breathtaking experience, and Sydney is no stranger to whales. At the Royal National Park, you can see kangaroos and wallabies in the wild.
One of the things that makes Sydney so special is the history behind it. While it was officially founded by the English in 1788, Australia had been inhabited by the Aborigines for over 30,000 years. However, the Aborigine culture is still in close contact. Just a little traveling outside the city will bring you to world-famous examples of rock art, like those at Royal National Park and Kuringai National Park.
Sydney is a huge city a lot to experience. Of course you want to experience as much as possible, so plan out the things you'd really like to do and be sure to leave plenty of time for impromptu plans. Also, don't forget your passport. Rush passport service is available online 24/7, providing you with service to get US passport extra pages, passport replacements, or any other passport-related need you might have.

Lone Tree Taylor Hollow
Season dates
9-1-2014 to 10-31-2014
- Nonresident permits: No
- Resident permits: 1
- Total permits: 1
The Wildlife Board establishes timeframes for hunting on CWMUs. Hunters should expect to hunt at least five days within these timeframes
Type: CWMU
Species: Bull moose
Weapon: Any legal weapon
Lone Tree Taylor Hollow
DescriptionThe Lone Tree Taylor Hollow Cooperative Wildlife Management Unit (CWMU) is located on both the east and west sides of East Canyon Reservoir. The high point on the east part of the Unit is about 6700 feet and is on the east boundary. The elevation decreases towards the reservoir. This part is cut in the south by Taylor Hollow, 5700 feet to 6100 feet. Cottonwood Canyon ranging from 5800 feet to 6700 feet and Dip Hollow ranging from 6200 feet to 6300 feet cut the Unit. On the west part of the Unit, east of the reservoir, there is a ridge that ranges from Deadox, 8400 feet to 7700 feet in the north. Lowest elevations are 6600 feet to 7400 feet. Much of Monument Creek froms the southern boundary of the unit. Dry Pine Creek ranging from 6200 feet to 7200 feet is one of the major drainages cutting this part of the Unit. The most common elevation is 6300 feet but ranges from 5800 feet to 8300 feet with an elevation difference of 2500 feet. Forty-nine percent (49%) of the CWMU elevation ranges between 6500 feet and 7600 feet an elevation difference of 1100 feet.
Most of the Lone Tree Taylor Hollow Cooperative Wildlife Management Unit (CWMU) is covered with Inter-Mountain Basins Montane Sagebrush Steppe (62), which is mostly in the middle of the unit. More dominant in the north and south ends in almost equal proportions are Rocky Mountain Gambel Oak-Mixed Montane Shrubland (41) and Rocky Mountain Aspen Forest and Woodland (22). In a much more minor way patches of Rocky Mountain Montane Mesic Mixed Conifer Forest and Woodland (32), Inter-Mountain Basins Big Sagebrush Shrubland (48) and Inter-Mountain Basins Big Sagebrush Steppe (66) are distributed throughout the unit.
One of the Lone Tree - Taylor Hollow Cooperative Wildlife Mangement Unit (CWMU) nearest weather stations, ECHO DAM (422385), is about 9.0 km east from the east edge of the CWMU. ECHO DAM has sixty-seven (67) years of records, 1940 - 2007. During the FALL (September, October and November) the average precipitation is 3.88 inches, but it can be as high as 10.59 inches or as low as 0.47 inch. During the 91-day FALL period, 21 days will experience greater than or equal to 0.01 inch of precipitation, 11 days of greater than or equal to 0.10 inch, or 2 days of the greater than or equal to 0.50 inch of precipitation. Snowfall during the FALL averages 12.1 inches but can be as high as 41.5 inches. FALL temperature at ECHO DAM averages 46.5 degrees F. but can be as high as 97.0 degrees F. or as low as -21.0 degrees F. During the FALL, 54 days will be below freezing (32 degrees F.) and 3 days above 90 degrees F. This map is provided for general reference only and does not constitute a legal hunt boundary. The Division does not guarantee access to any private or public land. Hunt unit boundaries may include private property or other excluded areas.

CUBRID Web Manager - the next generation SQL client with monitoring features
posted 5 years ago in CUBRID Apps&Tools category by Esen Sagynov
We are very happy to announce the general availability of the next generation Web-based SQL client with powerful system and database monitoring features - CUBRID Web Manager. It is an open source database administration and monitoring tool designed specifically to provide the Web interface for CUBRID, an open source RDBMS highly optimized for Web applications.
In this article I will explain how this project has started, what it looks like, its major features, what open source software have been used to develop CWM, what difficulties we have encountered during and after the development process, and will also mention other internal details.
For the last year or two we have been receiving many requests from users and hosting companies to bring our CUBRID Manager, a desktop GUI-based database administration tool, to the Web. So far it was not possible to access CUBRID Servers from the Web.
This year on March, 2012, we started researching on what such a Web tool should look like, on how it should function and what features it should provide, and finally how we should implement all these.
We have started from analyzing the existing open source solutions such as phpMyAdmin for MySQL. We have found out that all the features it provides come down to executing a SQL statement either by the application itself or by a user. However we have come up with a list of value-added functionalities that we want to provide to our users but which cannot be accomplished by simply querying the database server. Except for being able to execute valid SQL statements through intuitive UI, there are two key features natively supported in CUBRID that we wanted to bring to the Web. They are:
- Monitoring host system and database resources such as CPU, memory as well as disk space in real time.
- Providing an information about slow queries being executed, again in real time.
Besides these functional differences we wanted to make the new CUBRID Web Manager to be administration- and configuration-free as much as possible. To explain what I mean by this, let me give you this example. For instance, to install phpMyAdmin on your server you have to install prerequisite software. You need a Web server running like Apache or nginx, and a PHP engine either as a Web server module or via other libraries like FastCGI. Also you need to make sure you use PHP version 5.2.0 and higher. Briefly, there are many variables users have to take care of before using phpMyAdmin.
In CUBRID Web Manager we wanted to remove all this hassle. So we decided to provide a solution that is very closely integrated with the CUBRID Server and requires no configuration to get started, although configurable if necessary. Just install CUBRID Database Server, and everything is already preconfigured for you. This is what we wanted to achieve.
We have researched a lot about what Internet browsers we should support. We thought about dropping IE6&7 support and provide only modern browser support. But we have found out that IE6 still occupies 21% of market share in China where we have many users. This number is also high in other Southeast Asian countries. So, despite the effort it would require, we have decided CWM will support everything starting from IE6 and Firefox 3.5. The modern browsers such as Chrome 10+, Safari 4+, and Opera 11+ will also be supported.
Thus, we started to design CWM that will work for everyone with a desktop browser. Here we remembered about our DBAs and developers who want or, actually, need to access their database servers on their mobile phones. This is especially important and useful in urgent situations.
For the last 5 months it was our mission to create a powerful Web-based database administration tool with unique monitoring features which can run on almost any Web browser on PC and mobile phones. To accomplish this mission we have brought together a team of five software engineers majoring in C/C++/Java, and a QA expert from our NHN China branch. They are:
- Kevin Qian - CWM lead developer and engineer who majors in Java/J2EE.
- Martin Lee - CUBRID Manager Server (CMS) lead developer, engineer. Major in C/C++.
- Steve Xu: CWM developer, engineer. Major in C/C++.
- Santiago Wang: CWM developer, engineer. Major in Java/J2EE.
- Frank Wu: CWM/CMS tester, QA engineer.
Free MacBook Air and Amazon Kindle Fire during our CWM Bug Bash event
Last month in August, 2012, we launched a 30-day long CWM Bug Bash developers event dedicated to bringing CUBRID Web Manager out of beta status. In the event we asked users to find and report the remaining bugs in our new tool to make it stable before we officially announce the general availability. Participants could earn point by requesting new features and reporting various bugs. Each reported issue was rewarded depending on its type: new feature (0.5 points), trivial issue (0.5p), minor issue (1p), major issue (2p), critical issue (3p), and blocker issue (4p). Top 4 users would receive the latest model of 13'' MacBook Air and Amazon Kindle Fire tablet computers. Others would receive $50 worth Amazon or iTunes gift cards which they can use to purchase apps, books, or upgrade their OS X from Lion to Mountain Lion.
As a result of this CWM Bug Bash event, 148 issues have been reported by 8 participants. Among them 37 issues have been rejected as they were unreproducible, invalid, or duplicates of already reported issues. Thus, our Dev team has accepted 111 issues. So far we have already fixed 63 issues thanks to our great beta testers.
The stable version of CWM
System architecture
We have designed CUBRID Web Manager as a server-side plugin for CUBRID Database Server. It consists of two components (this does not include the components of the original CUBRID Server):
- Server side
- Client site
Server side
The server side of CWM is actually developed as part of CUBRID Manager Server, which is a part of CUBRID itself. This means the client side is totally isolated from server processes. This allows us to update the server side while making no changes to the client side. CWM is simply a client for CM Server.
- The server side includes a set of APIs (CMAPI) to communicate with CUBRID Manager Server. CWM uses these APIs to perform database administration and monitoring.
- CCI API, the C driver for CUBRID, is used on the server side by CWM to execute all SQL statements.
- The last and major component on the server side of CWM is the nginx Web server which:
- listens to a particular port which is set in cm_httpd.conf configuration file;
- receives HTTP requests from the CWM client side (i.e. the browser) to its RESTful API;
- relays the request to CUBRID Manager Server through either CM Server or CCI APIs;
- receives the response from CM Server in the form of a JSON object;
- finally sends this JSON object back to the browser.
I will write more about this CUBRID HTTP API in a separate blog.
Client side
- have a rich set of predefined UI components including advanced charting and graphing tools necessary to display the system monitoring status;
- be able to reuse these UI components;
- provide detailed documentation for each UI component and their usage;
- provide support for legacy browsers (IE6+).
This is what we wanted. We wanted to develop fast and produce a stable product and avoid spending time on tweaking the UI. Eventually, among various JavaScript frameworks we have chosen Ext JS by Sencha.
Thus, the entire client-side of CWM is implemented in JavaScript in Ext JS. When a user performs a particular action (eg. clicks on a table, queries a table, drops a database, etc.), the HTTP request is sent to a RESTful API of our httpd server which is listening on a secure 8282 port by default. For every response, the client receives a JSON object with retrieved data or error messages.
Briefly speaking, CWM is simply a Web application which communicates with CUBRID Server via CUBRID Manager's HTTP Interface.
Download and install
The current CUBRID Web Manager version 8.4.1 build 0004 is now stable and can be used safely with any CUBRID v8.4.0+. You can download CWM from http://www.cubrid.org/wiki_tools/entry/cubrid-web-manager-installation-instructions. There you will also see the installation instructions.
Starting from CUBRID 8.4.2 (the upcoming release scheduled for the end of September, 2012), CWM will be integrated into the main server binary, so users will no longer need to install CWM separately.
Until then, when you install CWM, you will find the default cm_httpd.conf configuration file under the /conf directory. This configuration file follows the nginx configuration specification. If you do not change anything, the default configuration will instruct the built-in nginx Web server to listed to secure 8282 SSL port on the same machine. Therefore, to access CWM in the browser, navigate to http://localhost:8282, where
localhost can be any remote IP address of your CUBRID host.
Host login
The first thing you will see when you open http://localhost:8282 is the Host Login form. CUBRID Web Manager provides the same authentication service which is available in CUBRID Manager client. In order to use CWM, users have to login to CUBRID Manager Server.
Note that host authentication is different from database user authentication. As an administrator of a CUBRID Server you can login to a host server and administer multiple databases. There can be multiple DBAs who can create their own databases which you may or may not have an access to. In order to access the databases you have access to, you need to login to them after you are logged in as a host server administrator.
When you login to CWM or CM for the first time ever, the default username and password are admin and admin. Right after the first successful login, you will be prompted to change your password.
System and database monitoring
The first thing you may want to do is to check the health of your database servers. CUBRID Web Manager provides an awesome, real-time monitoring dashboard implemented in a form of a tachometer of sports cars :). Really cool!
On the dashboard you will see three graphs for CPU usage, Memory usage, and Disk Space usage.
CPU usage
If you hover over CPU graph, you will see a popover which displays the percentage of CPU used by all system processes, and by CUBRID Database Server. This data gets refreshed every second, so you can see how the graph changes in real time.
The green piece of this half-pie indicates on the system CPU usage, while the red color shows how much of this system usage is actually used by CUBRID Server to manage all databases.
Memory usage
Memory usage also displays how much RAM is used by the system, and how much of it is used by CUBRID, in addition to how much memory is available in total.
Remember that in CUBRID the physical memory is used only by running databases. In other words, if some of your databases have not been started, they do not use the memory. For more info see Important Facts to Know about CUBRID.
Disk space usage
Disk space usage graphs displays how much space is available on the server in total, how much of it has already been used, and how much of this usage accounts for CUBRID databases.
At this moment this graph displays the total disk space available to the system, including all available partitions, not just the one where CUBRID Server is installed.
In the next version of CUBRID Web Manager, we will add one more graphs which will display the information about Slow Queries which I have explained above. So stay tuned! Next version will be even cooler!
Broker management
Just like in CUBRID Manager, in the Brokers tab you can start and stop Brokers, the middleware of CUBRID. If you enable Auto Refresh feature, the information about Brokers will change in real time. You can see various information such as the port a particular broker is listening to, the number of application servers running, the number of jobs queued, the number of transactions and queries per second being processed by the broker, or the number of requests.
Configuration Variables
In the second "Variables" tab, you can see various configuration values used by CUBRID Server, Brokers, and CUBRID Manager. Right now all these values are static.
When you click on a "Databases" tab, you can see a list of available databases on the current host. Here you can perform various actions on each database: check user privileges, start the database, stop it, or drop it. The same list of database is displayed on the left panel with an icon representing the current status of the database. For example, on the above screenshot you can notice that the demodb database has been started, while the hibernate database is not running.
When you click on any database, a list of existing tables will be displayed on the left panel. Various operations can be performed on each table on the main panel. You can hover over any action icon to see a tooltip.
Executing SQL statements
In the SQL tab you can execute any SQL, even multiple SQL. In case multiple SQL statements are executed at once, all will be executed, but CWM will display only the results of the latest SELECT query.
Auto backup plan
One of the great features of CUBRID Web Manager is the availability of Auto backup plan which allows to schedule a backup of the entire database. To schedule an automatic backup, open the "Operations" tab and add a backup plan.
In the next version we will enhance the auto backup feature. CWM will allow to see a list of backup plans previous added as well as the detailed information about how many times they have been executed, for how long, and other status information.
Export data
Exporting in CUBRID Web Manager works seamlessly. You can export the entire database or a list of selected tables to SQL file, CSV, or in loaddb format which later can be loaded to another database using a cubrid loaddb utility.
Import data
Importing in CWM works similarly. In the current stable version, you can import data from SQL and loaddb files. Later we will add more formats.
There are many super great features we have implemented in CUBRID Web Manager. It is really nice, and it is open source! Give it a try and let us know you feedback in the comments below, on Twitter or Facebook. If you have a particular feature request, feel free to ask on our JIRA Issue Tracker, our forum, or ask questions at our Q&A.

I am pleased to announce that my next book, Organizational Psychology for Managers, will be published by Springer in 2013.
This article was originally published in Corp! Magazine.
�I sit down in a meeting and my phone goes nuts. I can�t even take a vacation!�
This very frustrated comment was made to me by a manager about his team. Whenever he�s in a meeting or away from the office at a client site, no work gets done. His team is constantly calling him to make decisions or help them solve problems.
�I don�t get it. The solution is obvious!�
This was a completely different manager at a completely different company. Same basic problem though: When he wasn�t there, nothing got done. He was frustrated; his team was frustrated. They were all loyal, all eager to please, but they also wouldn�t do anything if he wasn�t there.
Indeed, teams that don�t work when the manager isn�t around are legion. It�s a common problem, and common wisdom suggests that the team members lack motivation or are trying to goof off: when the cat�s away, and all that.
Common wisdom may sound good, but is often wrong. This is no exception.
When apparently enthusiastic teams are unable to get any work done when the boss is away, there are really three common causes:
The goals are unclear. The group can�t make decisions without the boss. The group is either unable or unwilling solve the problems that come up.
While the first two are important, the third is critical: If the team doesn�t think it can do the job, or isn�t willing to try, then it doesn�t matter how skillful they are at decision making and it doesn�t matter how clear the goals are. It�ll merely be that much clearer to them that they cannot do it.
In each of the cases mentioned above, and countless others, the situation was the same: a highly skilled, knowledgeable manager, a competent team, working under a tight deadline and the perception that there was no time for mistakes.
Perception can be dangerous: In this case, the perception that mistakes had to be avoided caused more delay than the mistakes would have!
In each situation, when the team ran into a difficult problem, they�d call their manager. He�d run into the room, quickly size up the situation, and tell them what to do. It usually worked; if it didn�t, they�d call him in again and the process would repeat.
Given the tight deadlines and how busy the manager was, this always seemed to be the best thing to do: solve the problem, move on. Unfortunately, it meant that the team never had to learn to solve the problems for themselves. Even worse, they were being given the very unmistakable message that they couldn�t be trusted to make the attempt lest they make a mistake.
In each case, the solution was easy, although the implementation was not: The manager had to slow down and work through the problem solving process with their team. Rather than solving the problems, they had to let the team see their process for problem solving, and understand their criteria for success.
Then, came the really hard part. Each manager had to step back and let the team move forward on their own. �Yes, the manager could help, but they also had to resist the urge to solve the problems. They had to accept that the teams would make mistakes.
This did not always go smoothly. It is not easy to tolerate mistakes, especially when the right answer is obvious to you. However, if the teams were not allowed to make mistakes, and then recover from those mistakes, the team couldn�t develop either the confidence or the ability to solve problems on their own.
Some managers couldn�t accept this. They couldn�t tolerate the inevitable mistakes or they couldn�t stop themselves from solving the problems. Others went the other direction: they were too quick to pull away, refusing to help at all. A couple firmly believed that they were making themselves irrelevant, and refused to move forward.
Most, however, were able to make the transition. Many needed some coaching: An outside perspective is very helpful. For those who were successful, they found that their teams became far more skilled and motivated than they had ever dreamed could happen. Instead of spending their time running around solving problems for the team, those successful managers were able to take a more strategic focus, further increasing team productivity. Several were subsequently promoted into more senior roles in their organizations.
In the end, teams don�t learn to operate when the boss is away by watching the boss solve every problem. It�s learning what to do, practicing, and recovering from the inevitable mistakes along the way that transform a dependent, low-performance team into an independent, high-performance team that gets things done when the boss is away.

The image quality in the Luna Interactive Projection Camera is BETTER than any projection camera I've ever used. Even with half of the lights off in my classroom, the image was still clear. I love the fact that it has a USB direct plug for connecting and charging. The best feature is the video camera. Teachers can record lessons and save them to their web page for absent students. It would also be perfect for classroom Skyping. With the click of a button you can take a snapshot of student's work. It's flexible and light weight, and I wouldn't be afraid to let students use it. A few uses:1 Video Time Capsule:At the beginning of the year have students record a message to their future self. Or at the end of the year have students record a message to the new students entering your classroom next year. 2 Record Lessons for Absent Students3 Take a Picture of Student's Work:With the click of a button you can take a snapshot of student's work. How perfect would this be for bulky items like dioramas? 4 Assessment: Document student's learning and share files with specialists and parents. 5 Oral Presentations: Let students record themselves giving a presentation. Kids love to be the star of the show, and you could show the videos at Open House. I really enjoyed reviewing this product for Learning Resources!

It is very easy to install on your computer, which is great. However, it's positive aspects end there. There is no zoom feature, so you must use the bendable neck to position the camera. However, the base of the Luna is so small and light that when you position the camera close enough to a text to be readable, it falls over and will not stand on it's own. Because of the lack of a zooming feature, one cannot use it to read text unless the camera is hovering less than an inch away from the text. The focus button appears to make no difference in the image. The only thing it might be useful for is the task pictured on the website, tangrams or other large manipulatives that would not require zooming in.

Luna Is a Lifesaver!
By krs7803
from Chicago, IL
My Luna doc camera is the best addition to my classroom in years. As an English teacher, I teach a lot of high-level texts. As we read, I can project my notes for students to copy. We also do a lot of writing, and I can easily project samples of writing the whole class can see, which eliminates the need to make copies for every student. I use it every day in almost every class I teach. I don't know how I lived without it for so long!
Love it!
By Kindergarten Hoppenings
from Bourbonnais, IL
I absolutely LOVE this little camera! We normally use Elmos that are housed on gigantic carts. They are a pain. Cords all over...the cart is so big it's always in the way. I no longer need to grab the gigantic cart and pray that my kiddos don't trip!This takes up a super small amount of space, plugs right into your computer, takes pictures AND video, and works just as well as our other "pricey" devices.I've used it to demonstrate reading strategies, handwriting, Project 64 (a drawing program), and plenty of games. I've also used it to take pictures of students, as well as, their work.
Fantastic Document Camera
By A Teeny Tiny Teacher
This is an amazing tool. I was so excited that Learning Resources gave me the opportunity to try this out. All you need is a computer and a projector. Plug it in, run the disk, and you're up and running. I use it to project read alouds on the screen, math manipulatives, our anthology, making word tiles, writing samples, etc. It also has the capablity to videotape what is happening so that you can go back and look at it later. It makes learning interactive, engaging, and hands on.
Luna Interactive Projection Camera

I was excited when Learning Resources provided me with a Luna camera to use in my classroom. You will love this easy-to-use, easy-to-set up camera! The possibilities are endless. Make any activity easy for your whole group to see. Now all your students can see the book you are using for your literacy lesson. Math manipulatives are magical with the Luna. This handy little device helps you catch and keep your students' attention.
Luna Document Camera Review
By Web20Classroom
from North Carolina
Learning Resources sent me a Luna Projection Cameara to try out and I was pleased with all aspects of this document camera. Traditionally document cameras are used for just that, documents. However this unit offers a great deal of flexibility when using real world objects as well. I was able to project clear, crisp images of picture books, math manupulatives and science experiments. The zoom works perfectly and the image looked great both on a screen and Interactive Whiteboard. I was also able to use this unit as a webcam with 3rd Party software and take independent images and video as well. This is a huge benefit as it makes the unit multipurpose and a central part of an interactive classroom. Set up was easy and the software installed without a problem. It is very easy to use and offers features for both the novice and advanced user.After my experience with the Luna Interactive Projection Camera in a variety of classrooms and settings it is one I would definitely recommend.
The Luna is a Lovely Learning Tool!
By Christina Bainbridge
from Michigan
We've been using this in my classroom and it's great! One thing I especially love about the Luna is that it has a light which makes the images so clear and bright on the screen and we love that!This little gem just pops out of the box, plugs in to your USB port, and installs easily in minutes. Then, you open the software it comes with, place something under the head, and... it's instantly projected on to your board or projection screen!You zoom in just by moving the arm closer to your document or items you are showing off. And... not only can you project objects and documents, but you can use this to record too! The best part is how affordable the Luna is! It's under $200.00 and is a great tool for the classroom!
Luna Projector!
By Ginger
from Greenville, South Carolina
I actually have a document camera in my classroom and I love it because there are sooooo many amazing things you can do with them! But, I must say, Learning Resources' Luna Interactive Projector is flippin' amazing! My document camera takes up way too much table space, but this little gem is small and versatile. It not only functions as a projector, but it is also a web cam and takes pictures and videos! How nifty is that!? All the while needing NO batteries! This projector is great for so many different things including:Making WordsDemonstrating handwriting and cursiveShowing books/textbooksModeling writing and other activitiesUsing manipulatives for mathDisplaying homework/classworkChecking homework/classworkDemonstrating science experimentsI can't even list them all, but you would definitely want one of these in your classroom!

Editor's Scratch Pad
September 27, 2011 - Mel Toadvine
No upfront price? Then no debit or credit card number from me. From time to time the Lehigh Acres Sheriff's Office issues a scam alert and we are more than glad to post it here on LehighAcresCitizen.com and carry the story in our printed editions. The information contained in those announcements from Sheriff Mike Scott and those who are assigned to be on the look out for scam artists do a good job and if local citizens, especially those who are apt to believe everything they hear on the phone or on a computer screen, would pay heed, it would help to eliminate the scammers who want your money. I believe there is another scam on the Internet, or at least close to one, even though some of these people I am going to talk about, are doing what seems to be legal enough. Let's say you are watching a commercial for some type of medication that doesn't require a prescription to help with things things such as backaches, leg aches, Diabetes and joint pain. You name it. The actors on TV make it look so wonderful that you think you may just want to try it. And about at the exact moment, they come up with a real zinger, they'll double the product if you order now. And they tell you there are only 300 bottles left. You can give them a call or go online. But here is the problem. No time do they tell you the price. I went online the other day, knowing I was not going to buy the product, but just to see if they were still listing the price. They come up with boxes in which they want your name, your credit or debit card number, your phone number, in some cases, and you still don't know what the price is. So you give them that information ... and click to the next page and it asks you for your type of credit or debit card number, and you still don't know the price, but you are asked to click next, and then finally at the end, the price jumps up, plus handing and shipping. The price is usually not worth what you think the product is worth, but they tell you that it is guaranteed, sure I belive that bill of goods, NOT. So if you believe the price is outrageous, you just click delete, without having made the final order in the so-called "basket." Get ready for a load of email trying to get you to buy the product. You have to eventually put the stuff in a scam folder, that is if your email will reject such email. When you go into a store and look at an over the counter medication of sorts, the price is right there in plain view. You know up front what it costs and you know immediately if you want to pay that price for it. If you do, you go through the checkout and you are finished. Not online. It just doesn't work that way. Ever wonder why? It's simple; if they don't tell you the price up front on the TV commercial or online, then it's way too much for the stuff and my advice is to stop there. In fact, I don't even give them my credit or debit card number if they haven't told me the price yet. And try calling them and getting the price of the product. The person who answers the phone, if she can speak English, goes through a scripted sales pitch and then asks for your credit card or debit card number. I asked the woman the price and she said she would get to that. I said I wanted it now before I would give her my debit card number, but she continued on with her sales pitch. Oh, and guess what else you learn? They will use your card to send you the same medication every month by deducting it from your bank account. Don't do it. I said goodbye, adios, and hung up. I won't buy things online, not unless they are from reputable firms with stores I am familiar with and the buyer should be careful when he or she encounters this type of advertising on TV or on the Internet.
