Connie Edmonston loves her job. Passionate about outdoor activity, she holds two recreation degrees: a bachelor's from Kansas State University, and a master's from the University of Kansas. As parks and recreation director of Fayetteville, Ark., she has parlayed a lifelong love for the outdoors into a career, and has helped make her town one of America's Most Livable Cities.
How did you get into public works?
Parks and recreation has been dear to my heart since I was a child. I wanted a profession that provided avenues for people to enjoy God's beautiful earth. I started with the city of Fayetteville parks and recreation department in 1982 as an administrative assistant, was promoted to assistant parks and recreation director, and in 1998 to director.
What are your daily responsibilities?
I am responsible for the administration and operations of parks and recreation, which has 40 full-time staff, an operation budget of $.3.15 million, and a capital budget of $1.54 million. It includes more than 3400 acres of parks; the recreation programs include soccer, Softball, flag football, Champs League for children with special needs, swimming pool, sport camps, Gulley Park Summer Concerts, movies in the park, Lights of the Ozarks, and the Fourth of July celebration.
What unique challenges and problems have you faced?
The challenge is to provide a diversified parks and recreational programs to meet the needs of our citizens, given our limited manpower and funding. Our staff is always looking for ways to become more efficient and to offer citizen-driven programs as well as park facilities.
What techniques have you used to make Fayetteville more attractive and save money?
Our community is dedicated to helping us provide a quality parks system as indicated by the large number of volunteers and donation/sponsorship programs. Fayetteville is a very progressive city in its challenge to meet the recreational needs of our citizens through the HMR (hotel, motel, restaurant tax of 1 cent), adopted in 1996, and the Park Land Dedication Ordinance created in 1981. Approximately $1.8 million per year is accumulated through our HMR tax for promotion and development of parks. The ordinance requires residential developments to dedicate land or money for the development of parks. Twenty-six parks have been acquired through this ordinance.
Our staff must be efficient in every aspect. We purchase state-of-the-art mowers that cover a lot of ground. It is important to preserve park land, and we must become as efficient as possible to increase our acreage. Most importantly, I have a staff that is highly trained, devoted, and motivated in providing top-notch work in parks maintenance, recreation programs, and park planning.
What's the best part of your job?
Helping our citizens have fun and engage in healthy recreational and leisure activities. To watch a child, family, or senior citizen enjoying our parks, trails, and recreational programs makes our hard work worthwhile. We work for the citizens and we want to please them and provide them with the best parks and programs.
What makes your town special?
Of course, our parks and recreation facilities and programs! The benefits are endless ... our parks and recreation services are community builders, protect the environment, provide a place for social interaction, boost our economy, increase tourism, build strong bodies, reduce stress, lower health care costs, provide safe places to play, teach vital life skills, provide space to enjoy nature, increase property value, attract new business, reduce crime, and create memories. I am excited and dedicated to what we provide for our citizens!

text: With all of the talk surrounding Tuktamisheva, a 14 year old skater straight out of juniors winning Skate Canada, having the advantage of triple - triple combinations without a post-pubescent body, I'm wondering how many senior ladies currently competing under IJS have triple - triple combinations? Specifically, ladies in their late teens and twenties with grown - up bodies. Miki Ando, YuNa Kim, Carolina Kostner, Cheltzie Lee, Maé Bérénice Méité, Kiira Korpi, and Joannie Rochette come to mind. (NB: It's quite interesting that a few of the skaters from Skate Canada last week were wunderkinds themselves as first year seniors, namely Cynthia Phaneuf, Mirai Nagasu and Rachel Flatt.)

Virgin Islands
National Park
Coral Reefs and Canopied Islands
Clear tropical seas, colorful coral reefs, white sand beaches, and the remains of centuries-old sugar plantations—these in combination with warm breezes and a relaxed way of living are the qualities that comprise the Virgin Islands. On St. John, the smallest of the three major U.S. islands, Virgin Islands National Park preserves the best of these qualities.
Growing from the rock outcrops bordering numerous bays and from small rocky cays (islands) are the coral reefs. These fringing reefs are a complex community of interacting marine plants and animals. The basic building blocks of reefs are hard corals— including:
- brain,
- elkhorn,
- star,
- finger, and
- staghorn—and
- soft corals (gorgonians)—especially sea fans and sea whips.
Closely dependent upon the reefs are the sand beaches for which these islands are so well known. Without the growth of the living coral that comprises the reefs, the beaches could not exist, for the sand here is composed of minute fragments of coral. The reefs also protect the beaches from being washed away by winter ground seas (distant storm-generated waves). A relationship has been established here that is enduring but delicate, for the reefs, and in turn the beaches, depend upon close tolerances. The sea must be clear and pollution free, its salinity must stay within close limits (30-36 parts per thousand), and its temperature must always stay between 21° and 27°C (70° and 80°F).
Plant and animal life on these islands have been altered drastically by man.
- At higher elevations, in protected valleys, and on northern slopes is the subtropical moist forest, the most extensive forest type on the island of St. John. This forest was cleared for raising sugarcane, but is now returning vigorously.
- The lower elevations, southern and eastern slopes, and less-exposed coastal sites are primarily subtropical dry forests.
- Along the southern and eastern shore, continuous easterly trade winds and direct exposure to the sun have created a more desert-like landscape in which dildo, opuntia, and turks head cactus may be present.
Indians, Pirates, and Planters
Man has been an inhabitant of these islands for centuries. Long before the birth of Christ, seafaring men using stone tools and bone implements hacked logs into canoes, swam, and fished in the clear waters of the Virgin Islands. Later, tribes of tall black-haired people from South America—farmers, pottery makers, warriors, and rock carvers—drifted with the winds and current through the curving necklace of islands now called the Lesser Antilles.
By the 2nd century A.D., peaceful Arawak villagers were living at Coral Bay, Cruz Bay, and Cinnamon Bay on St. John. In time, seafaring Carib people ranging up through the island chain took their toll of the Arawaks and established scattered outposts in the Virgin Islands. In turn, the Caribs nearly became extinct as European explorers and colonizers appeared in the Caribbean during the 16th and 17th centuries.
On November 4, 1493, Christopher Columbus, with a fleet of 17 ships, discovered the Lesser Antilles. By mid-November he had found an island he named Santa Cruz or St. Croix. A few leagues northward the Italian explorer then charted a chain of green, mountainous islands that he christened Las Once Mille Virgines—the Virgin Islands. The Spanish claims resulting from Columbus' voyages began two centuries of international wars for supremacy of the West Indies.
Against this background, the island of St. John slowly awakened to the visits of occasional freebooters, run-away slaves, castaways, and Dutch timber cutters. In 1717, Denmark took control, initiating a period of prosperity during which slave labor built many sugar and cotton plantations. With the abolition of slavery in 1848, St. John gradually reverted to its former quiet existence.
On March 31,1917, the United States purchased the Virgin Islands from Denmark. The U.S. Navy managed the islands until 1931, when the Territory of the Virgin Islands was created. The Territory is administered by the the U.S. Department of the Interior. As a result of Congressional legislation and the donation of lands to the Government by Laurance S. Rockefeller and the Jackson Hole Preserve Corporation, Virgin Islands National Park was established on December 1,1956.
Points of Interest
- Cruz Bay, the administrative seat of St. John, has a few food stores and gift shops. Stop at the park headquarters and visitor center there for park orientation and publications.
- Trunk Bay has one of the best beaches in the world and offers an underwater nature trail for snorkelers. Lifeguards are on duty daily from 9 am to 4 pm. Facilities include changing rooms, toilets, pay telephones, a picnic area, and snack bar.
- Cinnamon Bay, the location of Cinnamon Bay Camp, has a camp store and cafeteria. Lifeguard services are provided from 9 am to 4 pm daily. A 1.6-kilometer (1-mile) self-guiding nature trail is located across from the camp entrance.
- The Leinster Bay area contains
- a mangrove swamp,
- reef flat, and
- the partially restored ruins of the Annaberg sugar mill factory complex.
- Coral Bay, the site of the first established sugar plantation on St. John, was first settled in 1717. The site was selected because of its well-protected harbor.
- Salt Pond Bay and nearby Lameshur Bay are generally calm during the winter ground seas that make snorkeling and swimming hazardous on the North Shore beaches. A side trail leads to a salt pond, then to the rugged, wind-swept, coral rubble beach at Drunk Bay. Another trail winds through a growth of barrel cactus called turk's head to Ram Head, with its magnificent views of St. John's southshore and the British Virgin Islands.
WARNING. Ram Head has a steep cliff. Do not approach the edge. Keep children under control.
- Four-wheel drive vehicles are required for the drive to Lameshur Bay. A picnic area, toilets, ranger station, and research station are located in this area, once known for its bay oil, lime juice, and cattle production. Several interesting hiking trails connect Lameshur Bay with Reef Bay, Europa Bay, Yawzi Point, and the Bordeaux Mountain Road.
- Reef Bay Valley contains mysterious petroglyphs (rock carvings), some of which are attributed to West African origin and others to Taino Indians. Also within the valley are ruins of the Reef Bay Estate house and steampowered sugar mill ruins, the last to operate on the island.
Reef Bay is accessible from Centerline Road by a shady, 5-kilometer (2.6-mile) downhill hiking trail that traverses a unique subtropical moist forest to dry forest area of St. John. Toilets and litter barrels are conveniently located at the end of the Reef Bay Trail.
Virgin Islands National Park The park is located on St. John, the smallest of the three major U S Virgin Islands, and includes most of the islands just offshore.
As the Nation's principal conservation agency, the Department of the Interior has responsibility for most of our nationally owned public lands and natural resources. This includes fostering the wisest use of our land and water resources, protecting our fish and wildlife, preserving the environmental and cultural values of our national parks and historical places, and providing for the enjoyment of life through outdoor recreation. The Department assesses our energy and mineral resources and works to assure that their development is in the best interests of all our people. The Department also has a major reponsibility for American Indian reservation communities and for people who live in Island Territories under U.S. administration.

In July 1997, marine biologists at the U.S. Geological Survey Field Station on St. John observed a new, apparently virulent and rapidly advancing coral disease on a number of coral reefs. Since then, follow-up by the scientists has included monitoring the spread of the disease and the fate of the infected coral heads. Ongoing research about this disease is a part of the Coral Reef Monitoring Program being conducted by scientists at the field station on St. John, and is one of the longest-running coral reef monitoring programs for the Atlantic/Caribbean.

Reviews of this property
very nice
accommodation in a typical middle-class clean Quarter of Paris. The apartment is clean bright and generous. Four persons havea lot of space and no Problems with beds. The next underground station is only 5 minutes away on foot. On friday is next to the station a beautiful fish, vegetables and meat market Ariane is very friendly, helpful and speaks German, English and French. The return of the deposit was absolutely no problem. All in all, highly recommended.
Spacious, clean and convenient. These are the words I would use to describe the apartment. Our host, Ariane, met us and explained everything well. Since it was exceptionally hot in Paris when we arrived, 103, she even bought a fan for us to use. One nice thing was that the apartment is on the top floor, with balconies on both sides, so you could open up the doors and get a nice breeze through.
We enjoyed eating breakfast on the balcony, after I walked a block to get wonderful croisants from a great bakery and fresh fruit accross from that. That and a grocery store were all within easy 3 minute walking distance. The metro was about a 10-15 minute walk (for us old folks) and with it you could go practically anywhere. Staying for a longer period made it nice to have the washing machine (with detergent provided) as well as the dishwasher. There was no problem with noise from neighbors or the street. Everything we needed seemed to be provided.
The apartment is as fine as it was in pictures. It was about 15 minutes away from place d'Italie metrostation. Both bedrooms are big enough and apartment fits for four persons. There is also enough stuff in kitchen for cooking. The owner of the place is very kind and helpfull.
We had a fantastic stay at Arianes appartment. It is just like in the pictures. The view is magnificent, It`s quiet in the nights and the beds is good.
It`t close to Metro, small stores like bakerys, cheese stores and supermarkets. There are also lot`s of small and cosey bars and restaurants in the neighborhood.
Nothing negative to say. Can gladly recomend Arianes appartment and she was also very flexible With the arrivle and departure time.
A Swedish Family of 4.
This very nice apartment, clean. It has everything you need. 2 bedrooms, sunny living room with a nice view, kitchen with all you need. Pictures do not reflect as much as 50% that this apartment is cool.
The area is also Ok. good market open to 23pm., a bakery with delicious bread, nice restaurants. To the underground 500 m distances
Ariane is very cool, nice and helpful.
With nothing no problem.
I would recommend this apartment and Ariane
A nice appartment in a pleasent part of Paris, which I can very much recommend. The host - Ariane - is both easy to get in contact with and very helpful.
We had a wonderful time in this beautiful location clean and spacious apartment.
It is in excellent neighborhood and a lively street with many nice affordable restaurants.
From the apartment you have a beautiful view of Paris. The metro is not far away.
We stayed here with four people and recommend this apartment to anyone.

Wij hebben een prachtige tijd gehad in dit mooi gelegen schone en ruime appartement.
Het ligt in prima buurt en een gezellige straat met vele leuke betaalbare restaurantjes.
Vanuit het appartement heb je een mooi uitzicht over Parijs. De metro is niet ver weg.
Wij verbleven hier met vier personen en raden dit appartement een ieder aan.
fam. van der Boon (friesland)
Just perfect! An apartment in a quiet neighborhood, but at the same time full of restaurants and bars, supermarkets, etc. .. A neighborhood definitely alive, but at the same time quiet, at least from the apartment: no problem with noise or noise. You can sleep quietly with open windows without being disturbed. There are two metro stations within 5 minutes walk (Corvisart and Place de l'Italie). The apartment beautiful: beautiful decor and new. House clean and tidy, with all the amenities (iron, hair dryer, microwave, oven, kettle, coffee machine, flat tv, stereo). Really nothing to say. Two beautiful terraces with beautiful views of the Parisian garrets; seventh floor with double lift. A beautiful kitchen and living room, two separate bedrooms (excellent solution for those of us who, for business trip, want to sleep separately). The two bathrooms (one toilet, bathtub more than double Landino) separating the two rooms. The hosts are two wonderful people kind and extremely available. Surely we will not hesitate to return.
Semplicemente perfetto!
Un appartamento in un quartiere tranquillo, ma allo stesso tempo ricco di ristoranti e bar, supermercati ecc.. Un quartiere sicuramente vivo ma allo stesso tempo silenzioso, per lo meno dall'appartamento: nessuno problema di schiamazzi o rumori. Si può dormire tranquillamente con finestre aperte senza essere disturbati.
Ci sono due stazioni metro a 5 minuti a piedi (Corvisart e Place de l'Italie).
L'appartemento splendido: arredamento bello e nuovo. Casa pulita ed ordinata, con tutti i comfort (ferro da stiro, phon, micronde, forno, bollitore, macchina del caffe, tv piatta, stereo). Veramente nulla da dire. Due belle terrazze con una splendida vista sugli abbaini parigini; settimo ed ultimo piano con doppio ascensore.
Una bella cucina e salotto: due camere separate (ottima soluzione per chi come noi, per viaggio di lavoro, vuole dormire separatamente). I due bagni (uno solo wc, altro vasca più doppio landino) separano le due stanze.
I padroni di casa sono due persone splendide gentili e disponibilissime.
Sicuramente non esiteremo a ritornare.
The apartment is very nice, in a very good condition and is situated in a good residential area with many international restaurants. Bakery, butcher, supermarket, etc. are nearby. ArinaE is a very nice, welcoming host. In 7 min. one is the nearest Metro station and comes directly to the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, etc.
Die Wohnung ist sehr schön, in einem sehr guten Zustand und liegt in einem guten Wohngebiet mit vielen internationalen Restaurants. Bäcker, Metzger, Supermarkt etc. sind in nächster Nähe.
Arinae ist eine sehr nette, zuvorkommende Gastgeberin.
In 7 min. ist man an der nächsten Metro-Station und kommt direkt zu Eiffelturm, Arc de Triomphe etc.
Very good stay, the apartment is very nice and clean. It is close to all amenities, the area is quiet. Ariane is a pleasant host, comfort was there.
Très bon séjour , l'appartement est très beau et propre . Il est proche de toutes commodités, le quartier est calme. Ariane est une hôte agréable, tout le confort y était.

I love to have a bottle of this in the afternoon. Sometimes water just doesn't cut it. The flavor is great, no aftertaste. I think the individual packs are convenient.

The second ever Rush Select ID camp for the U13 age group see's 115 players representing 22 states coming in to Casa Grande, AZ for a 3 day ID camp. The weather decided not to corporate, but that does stop the camp going ahead, where players will be chosen to represent the Rush Select traveling team. The 60 girls are represented by some top level teams including Delaware and Colorado that are both Regional Champions in their respective regions. The coaching staff will be looking to build two teams, one that will compete at the Presidents Day tournament and one that will compete at the Desert Classic, both back here in Phoenix in February.
The boys are looking to bring a couple of teams together to take a once in a life time trip to an event in Milan, Italy, where they will get to pit their skills against Serie A youth teams from Italy.
The rain has been falling hard and the first day the fields were too wet to play, and with more rain in the forecast things were not looking positive.
The staff managed to find a good size patch of grass where they were able to put on a monumental game of Soccer Tennis, so at least the players could get out and kick the ball about and stretch their legs after their flights earlier in the day. The evening scrimmages were replaced by classroom and an indoor sessions, and with the sun poking out in the morning, it looks like we will be able to get out on the fields for the rest of the weekend.


text: 1990 k1500 v6 base model manual tranny my speedometer and heater fan quit working. they seem related as they quit together and occasionally will kick back on together. unknown if related is the 4low still works, but the 4high doesn't, and the indicator light doesn't work. everything else is working like always. horn and turn signal disengage and high beam switch i left out when changing the ignition, cab light is always on so i have to pop the bulb, but those are old issues i just live with. oh and the battery gauge always reads high red but it checked out right with a volt meter so that seems the gauge is just bad. i've checked the heater control fuse, so i think it may be a bad ground somewhere as they just quit randomly while driving. does anyone have any idea where that ground would be located? or any other ideas what could be wrong? it has had a few issues since it is a 90 in ohio but i love my truck too much to see it go to junk, had is since high school (ten years now). thanks for any help.

Note that admissions requirements will vary somewhat by program. Health sciences majors should work with their advisor to make sure they are taking the correct pre-requisite courses for the graduate programs they plan to apply to.
Animal nutrition is required by number of schools and can be taken through the consortium at NC A&T or online at several universities, including NCSU and Purdue University
Admissions requirements for veterinary medicine schools.
Most vet schools use the online application service VMCAS. Students who plan to apply should complete the common application, which then distributes the information to the students' chosen schools. The completed applications should be submitted by mid-summer of the year before the student plans enter vet school. For example, if you plan to enter vet school the fall after you graduate from Guilford, you should submit the applications during the summer of your junior year.
Note: As a capstone to the health science major, students take Health Science Seminar (HSCI 400), in which students learn about navigating the application process, from preparing the personal statement to interview tips, as well as discuss topics such as paying for graduate school and current issues in health care. In addition, Guilford alumni who are currently in or recently graduated from graduate programs in the health professions come back to share their experiences with you. This class should be taken the spring before you plan to apply to vet school.

central, clean, price okay
Terrific location, 5 minute walk from Cathedral. Apartment as described in the website. Carmen and Jesus were great, always available and helpful. Highly recommended.
Nicely located appartment with beautifull terace on the roof. Kitchen is minimum but enough to make your coffee in the morning.
We were happy to stay in this appartment, and the owner (Eva) is very hospitable. The appartment has a very charming terrace, where we spent most time. We liked the area, where the appartment is situated with its many local bars, and would like to recommend a stay in this appartment.
The appartment is located in a great area of beautiful Sevilla, you can walk easily to nearby Pubs, Restaurants, Shopping places!
The appartment has got evrything u need, a huge comfy bed with room for 3persons!! the room is small,but nice!
Great terace upstairs!
We enjoyed our stay really much, thanks a lot, we will come back for sure!!
Very nice appartment, very functional and furnished with everything one might need. Moreover it's perfectly located Close to Train Station and City Center. For a longer stay it might be a bit dark, as it has only Windows to a courtyard,
The apartment was just great. Clean and easily walkable to all interesting areas of Seville. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars was that the noise from the street filters into the apartment, the windows could do with thicker glass. Carmen was always ready to answer any questions we had, and everything worked out just fine. I would recommend.
Luxurious and spacious appartment at a great location in Sevilla! We stayed with 8 persons one week, and it proved to be enough room for all of us. When on vacation location is important, and with the Parque Marie Louisa just across the street, location was well cared for. And it took only 10 to 15 minutes to walk through the park to the city center.
We were also very happy with the service, both in renting the appartment and in service on the spot. It was easy to arrange for us to be picked up from the airport (and brought back) for a very reasonable fee.
Advise: make a plan on who will shower when, because the warm water capacity per run was limited.
All in all we can recommend both this appartment and our host Carmen!
Nice and cosy apartment with a marvellous roof terrace. Positive: everything is available to make a decent meal, the apartment is clean, it has a "double bed" (not a twin bed) and a nice view from the terrace. Only point that could be improved: the amount of hot water due to the capacity of the boiler.
This is a really new apartment. Although it's not in the down town but very near to the metro station. With the taxi from down town to the apartment you just need to pay about 10 Euro.
What not good we feel is: there is NO WIFI or INTERNET! It's really extremely inconvenient! Especially for the tourists, who want search for the route or sth. else.

Rustic chicken livers
Each Greek Easter my fil (mid 80s) makes a dish of what could be best described as rustic chicken livers. I can taste the bay leaves and the lemon and taste and feel walnuts and a slurp of brandy.
He "doesn't have recipe" but I'd imagine he'd saute the livers, drain, add the bay leaves and maybe some chicken stock, taste for seasoning, add lemon juice, taste again. Add lightly toasted chopped walnuts, taste and flambe/add brandy to taste.
Anyone have an authentic version of my guess work/intuition?

Re: Rustic chicken livers
HI Maree,
This recipe for chicken livers contains some of the ingredients you described. Is this of any help?
Chicken Liver and Lemon Pasta
675 gm Chicken livers
110 gm Butter
8 x Spring onions, sliced
1 sprg thyme
1 x Clove garlic, crushed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tbl Brandy or marsala
2 x Lemons, finely grated , zest of
675 gm Tagliatelle
1 tbl Oil
30 gm Parmesan cheese, finely grated
Trim the chicken livers, removing any greenish parts. Rinse and pat dry with absorbent paper.
Melt half the butter in a large frying pan, add the spring onions and thyme and sweat until the onions are soft but not coloured. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute further.
Add half the chicken livers and cook, turning frequently, until brown on the outside but still pink in the centre. Remove and discard the sprig of thyme. Put the chicken liver mixture into a food processor and process until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining butter in the frying pan until foaming and cook the remaining chicken livers as before. Add the brandy or marsala and lemon zest to the pan and cook for 1 further minute.
Season lightly with salt and pepper and return the processed chicken liver mixture to the pan. Mix thoroughly.
Meanwhile, cook the tagliatelle in a large saucepan of boiling salted water to which the oil has been added, until al dente. Drain and return to the pan. Add the chicken liver mixture and mix thoroughly.
Transfer to a large serving dish, sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.

Re: Rustic chicken livers
Hi and thanks, Shammy. I forgot to list the thyme and garlic. He's big on both.
This sounds very similar to a chicken livers and grapes recipe that I used to cook (??? "Veronique") in the early 80s when chicken livers were easy to come by. Very difficult to find here now. If one does find them, they're frozen. That that lump mate/love or lump it!
Monday:supply and banking day. Will attempt to locate fresh livers on my giddy trips across and around Sydney.
Thanks again!

School sucks!
Almost done though, AND registration for my last semester is next week.
WooHoo! Almost there Moke, Congrats! Keep your eye on the prize
They're all largely meaningless, aren't they? You need to have one to get yourself in the door but my experience is that anyone who is looking for better opportunities based mainly on what they did in college hasn't actually accomplished anything of note in the real world.
Another way of saying that is that a college degree opens the door but once you're in the working world, the specific type of degree is far less important than people believe. Once you have the degree it's all about what you accomplish in business so your 4 years (6 for you, Moke) of work to get a specific degree evaporates within about 6 months of being in the working world.
Meaning bachelor's in general haha.
But I'm getting bachelor's in Finance and Investments (or economics).
minor in information studies.
Might be going for my master's though, although I haven't decided what focus.
These days, you need more than a Bachelors is what I meant.

Arts Around Town: Chamber music has its place in Lehigh Valley with Nora Suggs, Satori
"Playing music is cool, but playing music with your friends is really cool." That's the advice chamber musician/teacher Nora Suggs gives to elementary-age children when she's doing a school program. Since 2003, it's been her mission to give the gift of music by putting an instrument in as many young hands as she can. In that first year alone, more than a hundred students benefited. To date, as of last week, Suggs said more than 400 instruments that have been donated and reconditioned have been placed with students at 44 schools and programs in the greater Lehigh Valley area and Berks County. It's just one of the many community outreach programs that stems from her work as founder and artistic director of Satori, now in its 17th season as a professional chamber music ensemble.
Satori's music has been an evolving journey since 1996, with its core musicians -- many heavily associated with Lehigh Valley symphonies -- performing together since and frequently being joined by additional performers and guest artists. Performances have included the eastern part of the country as well as the Lehigh Valley at Mayfair Festival of the Arts, Musikfest, area colleges and museums. Satori also performs community outreach concert series at Good Shepherd, Hospice House of VNA, and senior residences. The "Satori Live!" CD recently released is a culmination of music from its 2011-2012 season featuring Mozart, Durufle, Loeffler, Beethoven and Prokofieff.
Suggs and her fellow musicians not only perform publicly but also venture into local schools through Satori's "Bravo!" outreach program for music education. Bravo's threefold mission, according to Suggs, includes the Gift of Music instrument donation project. Used instruments collected from the community by service organizations and corporations are reconditioned and donated to area music programs who provide them for needy students.
Satori also performs in-school chamber music presentations and holds an annual student chamber music competition for grades 7 through 12, with a cash prize and performance opportunity. This year's competition will be held Feb. 16, at 1:30 p.m., at Community Music School in Allentown. For the first time, a competition for student compositions, also with a cash prize and public performance, will be featured. Suggs said student winners in the past have included a string quartet, a piano trio, and a wind ensemble, plus a duo of violin and guitar which featured a 12-year-old classical guitarist who went on to win several national and international competitions.
Satori's Annual Midwinter Concert will be held Saturday at 7:30 p.m., at Foy Hall, Moravian College, with an expanded ensemble of Satori players led by Maestro Donald Spieth. The "Satori Grande!" event will focus on music by Stravinsky, Telemann and Beethoven. A reception will follow, and tickets only will be available at the door.
The Second Sunday Concert Series, "East Meets West," has a new venue this year with Bethlehem's Unitarian Universalist Church of the Lehigh Valley on Feb. 10 at 3 p.m., with Western chamber music with shakuhachi , a Japanese bamboo flute played by Suggs.
Suggs, a native of New Orleans, has been exposed to music since a child, having a dad who played clarinet for Big Band and encouraging her and her sister to take up an instrument as early as second grade. Suggs chose the flute. She grew up in Houston, graduating from Rice University and Baylor College of Medicine, with extensive private education in music and degrees in biology, English literature, medicine and surgery. As a musician, she performed throughout the United States and Canada and abroad in England and Japan.
As a successful general and trauma surgeon and breast cancer surgeon at Lehigh Valley Hospital from 1980 to 2002, Suggs also maintained a high quality of professionalism in her music and in 1996, formed Satori. The name comes from a Zen term which refers to enlightenment, Suggs explained.
"It's when suddenly everything comes together, like a chamber piece. It all comes together," she said. She uses the Japanese script for Satori on its Web site.
In 2002, Suggs made the change from full-time physician to full-time chamber musician. She now teaches privately and at Bethlehem's Moravian College Music Institute and Community Music School. For more than a dozen years, she performed and recorded with Two Part Invention, a flute and classical guitar duo. Suggs also teaches and performs on shakuhachi, a traditional Japanese bamboo flute she refers to as "very beautiful and very expressive." She said she became interested in the instrument while visiting Japan many years ago and went on to study and receive performance and teaching accreditation under James Nyoraku Schlefer of New York City.
"We're always looking for new ways to present new music," Suggs said of Satori. "We're small enough and portable enough to bring our music into the community without sacrificing quality, yet keeping things affordable. Our listeners will find a comfortable and friendly environment when they come hear us. We're not formal and stuffy. We're listener-friendly. It's like they'll be sitting in their living room listening to a bunch of friends playing for them."

Price as configured:
Our Tournament Wood Chess Boards are affordable, ideal for both serious and casual play, and feature the House of Staunton Logo.
Savings of $10.00When Bundled with Chess Pieces!
Our Standard Wood Chess Boards offer the perfect combination of affordability and luxury, and are available in a variety of woods.
Savings of $20.00When Bundled with Chess Pieces!
Our Superior Wood Chess Boards are designed for the discerning player, crafted from exotic woods and frames.
"An exact reproduction of one of the most popular chess sets used in most major US Chess Tournaments during the 1950s and 1960s, including a young Bobby Fischer who won the 1958 US Chess Championship with these popular chessmen."
The House of Staunton is proud to offer the Windsor Series Chess set. A full tournament-sized Chess set, it features a 3.75" King with a 1.6" diameter base. The Chess pieces are hand carved by our master artisans and crafted out of the highest grade woods. The Chess pieces are heavily weighted with luxurious billiard cloth base pads and a beautiful finish. The design of the Windsor Chess set is an exact reproduction of the Chess set used by the legendary American Grandmaster Bobby Fischer when he won the 1958 United States Chess Championship. The Chess set has been designed to withstand years of use (and abuse), as it lacks many of the ornate details commonly found on Chess Sets that can be susceptible to damage in the heat of battle. For example, the Chess set features minimal Rook crenellation and Bishop mitre for unmatched durability. The Windsor Series Chess set is ideal for those that are interested in both the historical importance of the game of Chess, as well as those looking for an attractive Chess set that is both economical and durable.
As with all of our Chess sets, the Windsor Series Chessmen exemplifies a perfect combination of distinct beauty and functionality. It has been designed to withstand the rigors of practical play while maintaining an elegance which has become the hallmark of a House of Staunton chess set. The design, quality and craftsmanship of this set is UNMATCHED by any set of Chessmen in its price range. Nothing even comes close!
The Chessmen are new and each set consists of 34 Chessmen, including four Queens, a standard that was introduced by The House of Staunton in 1993.

Blood is life."—the book of the eternal roseoneCass leaned over the side of the Rialto Bridge, the wind lifting her auburn hair away from her face. Wispy clouds swirled low in the sky."Cass." The word fluttered on the breeze.She turned. Falco stood at her side, his square jaw backlit by the sun, his mouth curving into the lopsided smile she loved. "I thought you . . . ?" Cass couldn't finish. Left. He had left her, weeks ago."I came back for you," he said.He stroked her face with his hands, one fingertip tracing the smattering of freckles across the bridge of her nose. She wobbled in her chopines and he reached out to steady her, his hand lingering on her arm. The platform overshoes made her taller than Falco, but he didn't seem to notice. Tilting his head toward her, he pulled her body in close to his.Cass trembled as he closed the gap between them. Their lips met. Hungry. Wanting. Falco's hands wrapped around her waist, caressing her through the layered fabric of her dress. Her body went weak, and she gripped the stone railing of the bridge to keep from pitching over into the water. Her other hand found his hair. She twisted it around her fingers."Come with me," he whispered.Cass didn't even ask where they were going. Falco took her hand and pulled her across the bridge, through the streets. Light became gray. Day became night. His grip tightened around her fingers. Too tight. Cass looked up at him. She gasped. He was falling away in pieces. His hair. His smile. His skin peeling back to reveal teeth and bone.The street dissolved, and Cass wasn't outside anymore. Dark hallways threaded out in all directions, weblike and impossibly long. She clawed at the damp walls, and the stone chipped away beneath her fingernails, leaving long gouges in the rock. She was being dragged forward, through an arched door. A lantern flickered to life. They were in the wine room. Cass and the man of bone.Only now he wore a new face: Cristian, her fiancé Luca's half brother. Cristian, the murderer. He started shouting at her, horrible black things about the women he had killed.A droplet of water fell from above. Cass lay pinned to a low stone table. And Cristian was on top of her, his weight crushing her chest, an icy blade pressed against her throat. She felt death in that pinch of steel, but she was more afraid of the hand that wasn't holding the dagger. The hand that was busy tearing away the fabric of her dress . . .Cass sat up in bed, her heart banging in her chest, her eyes still shut against the monster from her nightmare. The fabric of her nightgown clung to her moist skin."Not real," she murmured. She had the dream every couple of nights. Each time it was a little different, but it always ended the same way.She opened her eyes. The candle on her washing table had burned down to its nub. Burning tallow all night was expensive, and dangerous, but Cass couldn't bear the dark. Not since Cristian had attacked her. A thin shaft of silvery dawn sliced its way through a crack in her shutters. It was morning, and she was all right. Another night survived.She tried to put the nightmare out of her mind. She hadn't told anyone exactly what had happened to her the day of Madalena's wedding. Even Luca didn't know that his half brother had more than murder on his mind when he lured Cass down into the wine room.Her insides twisted, like she was a sheet being wrung out to dry. Bile rose in her throat. Resting her head back on her pillow, Cass willed herself to be calm. Inhale. Exhale. Just breathe.Something rough scratched against her cheek. A rolled parchment lay in her tangled bedsheets. The edges were crumbling and the ink was fading in places. It was Falco's letter, the only one she had received since he left Venice. Cass had been reading it last night before she fell asleep. She'd read it a hundred times, knew each word by heart, but she unrolled it again anyway. The words were sweet and soothing. Even in his absence, Falco could make the nightmare fade.Starling,I haven't stopped thinking of you—I can't. I know that you are engaged and want to do right by your family, but you and I belong together. Call it fate if you like. I prefer to think of it as the natural order of things. Just as mixing ochre and sapphire produces the most vibrant green, you and I, when combined, become more alive.I've stopped doing business with de Gradi. I've left that life behind. I'm working as an artist-in-residence for a wealthy patron now. The work she has me do is a bit pedestrian, but perhaps it will lead to bigger projects. I meant what I said. One day I will paint whole chapels for you. I spend every waking minute becoming a better artist, a better man. One day I will offer you the life you deserve, the life we both desire.One day I'll be good enough, or I'll die trying . . .Cass glanced at the portrait of the Virgin Mary above her dressing table. She should have lowered the black veil attached to the frame before reviewing her love letter. It wasn't proper to let the Virgin see her swooning over a man who was not her fiancé.But she could ask for forgiveness later. Cradling the parchment against her chest, she thought about the last time she'd seen Falco. She had been strolling the streets of San Domenico with Luca when she saw Falco flagging down a fisherman for passage. Cass knew he was going away, but she didn't know where. Part of her had wanted to drop her fiancé's hand and run to Falco's side, to escape the tiny island with him.But she had stayed put, her arm entwined with Luca's, watching Falco's back fade into the setting sun. Following him would have meant abandoning her aunt Agnese and dishonoring the memory of her parents, and Cass just couldn't do it. Besides, she wasn't completely convinced she could trust Falco. Their whole relationship was based on secrets and lies. Even if Falco had stopped stealing dead bodies and selling them to Angelo de Gradi, did that mean he wouldn't turn to crime again the next time he needed more than his art could provide? She didn't know.But she did know Luca might never be enough for her. Cass's heart fluttered in her chest. She felt Falco's lips on hers as if he were there in the room. She remembered their first kiss, in the studio where he apprenticed, the way she felt as if she had lived her whole life inside a frozen shell, melting for the first time at his touch.She sighed. Luca had been so patient with her the past few weeks, content to enjoy her company at mealtimes and during an occasional stroll along the beach. Just last week he had given her a gift, a gorgeous lily pendant. Cass felt its pressure in the hollow of her throat, the lily's diamond center moving in and out with each of her breaths. Luca would make the perfect husband. He was handsome and kind and smart, a good man, from a well-established Venetian family. And he loved her. He loved her so much, he would die for her; he had proven that already. But Falco was . . . Falco. Just the taste of his name on her lips made Cass a little dizzy.Her situation was hopeless: betrothed to one man, wildly in love with another.Heavy footsteps outside her room shattered the reverie. Quickly, Cass slipped the letter under her pillow. She tucked an unruly shock of hair back under her sleeping cap as she hurried to her armoire and grabbed a dressing gown from inside. Securing the belt around her waist, she opened her chamber door a crack and peeked out into the hallway. It was dark, but the corridor was full of strange men dressed in scarlet and gold. Men with swords and clubs tucked into leather sheaths.Soldiers."What's going on here?" Cass asked.The soldiers turned as one, quickly averting their eyes at her state of undress. "We've orders to search Signor da Peraga's chambers," one of them said stiffly. He wore a gold medallion pinned to his doublet. Cass assumed he was the man in charge."Search his chambers?" she repeated, incredulous. "For what?""Best you step aside, Signorina." The soldier waved her out of the way with one of his filthy leather gloves. "These orders come straight from the Senate."Cass's handmaid, Siena, appeared at her side, dressed but still half drunk with sleep, her blonde hair stuffed loosely under her bonnet. "Signorina Cass," she whispered. "What's happening?""I don't know." Cass followed the soldiers to the room where Luca had been staying. Siena trailed behind her. The two girls stood in the doorway as the men converged upon the bed, tearing the pillows and sheets from it and tossing them to the floor. Finding nothing of interest in the linens, they moved to the worn leather trunk that sat against the wall. Horrified, Cass watched as one of the soldiers flung armfuls of books and clothing over his shoulder."Where is Luca?" she asked, her voice rising in pitch. "You've no right to go through his belongings without him present.""I suggest you go speak to Signor da Peraga yourself," the nearest soldier said. "He's in the portego with the rest of the brigade."Rest of the brigade? Pulling Siena behind her, Cass stormed down the hallway and pushed into the main room of the villa. The shutters were still closed, but the cavernous portego was aglow with torchlight. Agnese's harp, and the angel statues that stood on either side of it, were casting deformed, wavering shadows across the marble floor. Luca stood near a velvet divan talking to another group of soldiers. Cass counted seven of them. They smelled of sweat and ale and ashes. Scarlet and gold blurred before her eyes as the soldiers circled her fiancé, like lions preparing to pounce."Luca! What's happening?" She pushed her way through the sea of red to Luca's side, her forward momentum almost throwing her into his arms. It had been awhile since she had been this close to him, close enough to see how his brown eyes faded to honey at the edges, close enough to smell a hint of cinnamon on his clothing."I'm being arrested," he said calmly.Cass felt as though the ground had opened beneath her feet. "On what charges? Under whose authority?" For a moment, she pressed her face against his broad chest, hiding her skin from the dancing flames of the nearest soldier's torch. The silk of Luca's doublet felt cool against her scorched cheek."What is the meaning of all this?"Cass pulled away at the sound of Narissa's shrill voice. Narissa was Agnese's personal handmaid and the unofficial second-in-command of the villa. The stout, gray-haired woman surveyed the scene with a mix of shock and anger.A crowd was beginning to gather at the edge of the portego. Siena stood just inside the doorway, her body leaning heavily against the wall as if she might collapse at any moment. She gestured wildly as she murmured to Narissa, but Cass couldn't make out what the women were saying. She felt as though she hadn't yet woken from her dream. Everything was strange and disjointed. Bortolo, Agnese's elderly blind butler, stood behind the handmaids, his grizzled face twisted in confusion. In the other doorway, a trio of serving girls huddled silently together, taking in the scene with wide, frightened eyes.A large thud made Cass jump. It sounded as if the soldiers were hacking Luca's belongings to pieces with their clubs. With all the noise, Agnese was almost certainly awake now. Cass knew she should go to her aunt's bedside, but she couldn't bring herself to leave Luca.As Cass watched, Narissa broke away from Siena and strode purposefully toward Luca's chambers, undoubtedly to make sure the soldiers weren't stealing anything or destroying the furniture. Cass knew Agnese would be hobbling her way into the chaos the instant she heard of the transpiring events. Ideally Narissa could control the soldiers and her aunt, who was too weak to deal with something like this. Agnese's latest bout with imbalanced humors had required a large bloodletting, and the doctor had recommended bed rest for a few days."On what charges do you arrest my fiancé?" Cass asked again, directing her words to the group. When no one answered, she focused on the nearest soldier. His beard was flecked with gray, and several medallions glimmered on the breast of his doublet. Perhaps he, not the man leading the ransackers, was the leader. "You. Answer me." The soldier looked pityingly at Cass but said nothing.Cass turned to Luca. "This is madness!""They can't tell us the charges." Luca pressed his hands to Cass's shoulders, steadying her. "They probably don't even know. They're just following orders." He touched his lips to her cheek, then angled his mouth toward her ear. "Be strong," he murmured. "And stay away from Signor Dubois.""Does he have something to do with this?" Cass knew that Luca had been to see Joseph Dubois only yesterday, and every shady dealing in Venice seemed to lead back to the Frenchman. A few weeks ago, he'd ordered Luca's half brother, Cristian, to "dispose" of a maid from his estate. The girl's mutilated body had surfaced in the Grand Canal, and now Siena's sister, Feliciana, another servant at Palazzo Dubois, was missing. Cass prayed to Saint Anthony every night for Feliciana's safe return, but privately she feared the worst.Luca didn't respond. The remaining soldiers filed into the portego, having apparently completed their search. Between the two groups there must have been close to twenty men. Did the Senate really think it would take so many soldiers to subdue a single man?"Did you find anything?" The soldier with the graying beard lifted his torch so that the faces of his companions were illuminated."Nothing," one of the soldiers barked in reply.The brigade surrounded Luca and Cass, separating them from the rest of the household. The heat from their torches made the room go blurry. Cass blinked hard, but golden spots floated in the air, melding with the ocean of scarlet fabric, reflecting off medallions and sword hilts. She braced herself with one hand against Luca, trying to keep her knees from folding beneath her."Signor da Peraga must come with us now," a soldier said. He detached a coil of rope from his belt and looped it around Luca's wrists, cinching his hands behind his back."No!" Cass threw her hands around Luca's neck, pulling him close. She fought back a sob, but a tear escaped, trickling down her cheek before she could brush it away."Everything is going to be fine, Cass," Luca said. He leaned down to brush his lips against the tear. "Don't cry."One of the men took Cass by the shoulders and wrenched her away. She stumbled backward, unmoored. Siena materialized at her side, reaching out, helping her regain her balance. The soldiers engulfed Luca and dragged him toward the stairs.The front door of the villa slammed, and Cass ran to the window. The sky had gone from silver to blue. The soldiers doused their torches in the water as they forced Luca aboard the sturdy wooden ship. White sails snapped in the breeze as the boat pulled away from the dock. The waxing daylight wasn't enough to see clearly by, but Cass swore Luca turned to look back at her as the ship bobbed out of sight. She touched one hand to the window, her breath condensing on the glass.Luca was gone. See more books by Written by: Fiona Paul Learn about Written by: Fiona Paul Belladonna Written by: Fiona Paul

Discover the physical side of the internet
When a squirrel chewed through a cable and knocked him offline, journalist Andrew Blum started wondering what the Internet was really made of. So he set out to go see it — the underwater cables, secret switches and other physical bits that make up the net.

NYSE Arca: PHYS TSX: PHYS.U
NYSE Arca: PSLV TSX: PSLV.U
NYSE Arca: SPPP TSX: SPPP.U
The Trust was created to invest and hold substantially all of its assets in physical gold bullion. Its purpose is to provide a secure, convenient and exchange-traded investment alternative for investors who want to hold physical gold bullion without the inconvenience that is typical of a direct investment in physical gold. The Trust does not speculate with regard to short-term changes in gold prices.
Without exception, the Trust's physical gold bullion is fully allocated and stored at a secure third party storage location in Canada. The physical gold bullion is subject to periodic inspection and audits. Unlike other bullion funds, the Trust does not have an unallocated account that is used to facilitate transfers of gold between financial institutions that act as authorized participants.
Units of the Trusts trade on the NYSE Arca and the TSX and provide investors with access to the physical gold bullion market with the liquidity of an exchange-traded security.
For many investors, the transaction costs related to owning the Trust are expected to be lower than the costs to purchase, store and insure physical bullion directly.
The Sprott Physical Gold Trust's Manager charges a 0.35% management fee per annum. There is also an administration fee charged annually. In 2012, the total management expense ratio of the trust was 0.42%.
For U.S. non-corporate investors who hold units for more than one year and make a timely Qualified Election Form (QEF) election, gains realized on the sale of the Trust's units are currently taxed at the long-term capital gains rate of 15% (20% for higher income taxpayers), versus the maximum of 28% applied against most precious metals ETFs and physical gold coins.
Unitholders who hold certain minimum dollar value equivalents have the ability to redeem their units for physical gold bullion on a monthly basis. Please see "Redemption of Units" in the prospectus for details.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
The 151' Brigantine Kaisei spent one month navigating the plastic-infested waters of the North Pacific Gyre—an oceanic region twice the size of Texas. While most of the plastic in the gyre is very small (there is a 36-to-1 plastic to plankton ratio), the researchers aboard the Kaisei brought back some of the big flotsam and jetsam that stood out. A sampling of the everyday items—from Head & Shoulders to water bottles to lawn chairs—that they picked out of the ocean 1000 miles off the California coast.

Okay......... here is the next great Sharkey question:
When you feed syrup to the bees , I gather from some of the other posts I have read that it is NOT turned into honey.
Two questions come to mind if that is the case :
1. Is that true ?
2. Why DOESN'T it become honey ??
I am guessing because nectar is a different molecule than syrup, but that is just my SWAG. :->
