Question of the Week: "What is your opinion of a bill to be signed by Gov. Scott Walker making it legal for citizens to carry concealed weapons?"
Photos by Yvonne Kemp
Elder Jesse Reed: "I feel people who carry a concealed weapon–legal or otherwise–will cause more harm than good."
Vernon Townsend: "Being a business owner for over 60 years, I don't believe in carrying concealed weapons. Only law enforcement should carry weapons."
Debra M. Newsom: "I don't think we should have a concealed weapon law. We have enough guns on the streets."
Dorothy Robertson: "I'm not sure that would be a good idea because people react differently when they have weapons as opposed to trying to think of another solution."

Reactions are mixed to the revamping of the model code development process announced by the International Code Council, which publishes the widely adopted International Building Code and 12 other "I" codes. The new process maintains ICC's three-year code-development cycle but eliminates the code supplements, published 18 months after each code. "Instead of having two complete code development cycles every three years, we are moving to one," says Tom Frost, ICC's senior vice president of technical services. ICC says the new system reduces the length of code hearings, increases participation and allows both the code development and final action hearings to be scheduled at about the same time every year. Many in favor of the change say the supplement will not be missed because it is not typically adopted by jurisdictions. They also welcome shorter hearing periods, which can last up to two weeks. Those against the change fear the code will become very static and poorly written. They also are concerned about the new process leading to voting abuses. Proposals for code changes for the 2012 model code are due on April 24.

A Nebraska environmental group wants federal regulators to keep the Fort Calhoun nuclear plant shut down because it would be inundated by flood waters in the unlikely event of a dam failing upstream.
The Clean Nebraska group says the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's own assessment of the flood threat at the plant about 20 miles north of Omaha predicts all major equipment at Fort Calhoun would be flooded if the Oahe dam failed.
The NRC said in its memo that this flooding issue at Fort Calhoun did not represent an immediate safety concern and could be addressed later.
Fort Calhoun initially shut down for routine maintenance in 2011, but last summer's flooding along the Missouri River and several regulatory violations forced it to remain offline.

Prior to construction at Fire Island Inlet, Fire Island was moving westward at more than 200 feet per year, the north shore of the inlet was eroding severely, and navigation in the inlet was difficult. The Federal Jetty, completed in 1941, and the sand dike, built in 1959, have halted the westward migration, eliminated the severe erosion, and partially improved navigation, with minimal maintenance or repair to the structures. There has been a large net accretion of sand east of the jetty and west of the dike, an unknown part of which is at the expense of shores to the west of the inlet. At the State Park on the south side of the inlet interior, erosion accelerated, probably because of the dike. The middle and ocean segments of the 4750-foot Federal Jetty are now (1987) in good condition, although the design implies a stability coefficient for the quarrystone jetty head at time of construction that would now be considered risky. Stability has been promoted by a stone blanket under and east of the jetty, a thick stone apron seaward of the jetty, a low (8 feet MLW) crest, and armor stone that has been partially keyed in place. Damage due to scour, common at other single-jetty inlets, is absent here because longshore transport, which easily overtops the low crest, keeps the inlet channel away from the jetty. Although the two seaward segments of the jetty remain in good condition, the inshore segment of the jetty is in poor condition, despite its apparently sheltered location. The cumulative effects of waves, possibly channeled to the site along recurved spits during storms, have damaged 1200 feet, and tidal scour has destroyed about 230 feet. The damaged segment has a design cross section which is onefifth and one-twelfth the cross sections of the jetty trunk and head.

When it opened its doors in 1979, Heaven was revolutionary. London's first gay superclub, it was the birthplace of Hi-NRG and acid house, a magnet for gay celebrities and mounted the most spectacular stage shows seen in clubland. But it hasn't been on top of its game for some time, rarely matching the standard set by Vauxhall rivals such as Fire. Still, with the closure of the Astoria and the subsequent move of G-A-Y to Heaven, the club has experienced something of a renaissance. Thursday now hosts G-A-Y Porn Idol, Fridays G-A-Y Camp Attack and Saturdays are reserved for the G-A-Y club night proper. It's not all a gay fiesta, however, the roomy Heaven also lays on live indie nights.

Despite phoning in advance to enquire about prices for a group visit for a 33rd birthday we were told ON THE NIGHT that groups are not allowed in the venue. Thanks GAY after we spent £640 to get to you. That is a joke for a start a club that does not allow groups. Pathetic.
I am an LGBT officer and was disgusted that one of my friends who was female and straight was told she could not come in. Firstly because she was part of a group and secondly she was straight and it was a gay venue. If that had been the other way round at a straight venue then all hell would break loose about homophobia. Clearly its ok for GAY to be heterophobic to her.
I had been warned by people prior to going that the staff we incredibly unfriendly but didn't believe them. How wrong I was.
We left Heaven and walked into a straight venue . No questions asked. Thanks to them they saved the night.
In my opinion if you want a good night DO NOT go to GAY HEAVEN. Clearly they have become blind with money and have forgotten their roots and the people who made them who they are today.
Will not be going back.
I've been going to heaven for about 6 years every Monday I was off from work. It has alway been great but last night something very disappointing happened. I was at the bar waiting to be served when a guy came from behind me and phisicslly start pushing me. He was pushing and shouting on me.. He was saying: do u want to be served? He repeated that for many times and still pushing. I reacted and I pushed him away. He then jumped behind the bar.. He was a bartender ..a sneaky one! He called security on radio and 4 guards came and took me out of the club. When I asked them what have I done..they couldn't answer.. When I tried to explain what happened they start laughing at me and didn't care even to my friends version who saw the scene. It was horrible and racist.. They asked me if I was gay. Very unprofessional.. Sneaky staff and security.. Unfair.. I was so mad., I didn't do anything and I was put out for nothing.
Avoid this place, This should be called a pathetic experience. I wished to have an LGBT atmosphere but it is nothing like it. Rude security
Horrible place, horrible staff and horrible venue, sums it all up.
Their attitude has not changed when they were at the Astoria venue, where do they get their security staff from? I was sober when I go there, NO Entry, another occasion I was a bit tipsy, NO ENTRY and told to go have a coffee while they consider letting me in!
There is a law against discrimination.
Well I can always spend my money elsewhere and not have to put up with insulting comments from door staff - male and female!
Ugly pathetic chavvy staff, Sorry, this place is just not worth it.
went here for many years before its takeover by Jeremy Joseph and pretty much went down hill from there. bad atmosphere in there as said previously and just generally quite boring and unfriendly.upstairs bars seem to be rarely opened due to lack of punters which increases its lack of appeal.better off in soho or vauxhall
#Heaven #Nightclub #London Pathetic little place. I was refused to enter and said I had too much to drink. Came especially with 16 friends and I was turned away. I did not have a drink and just finished work. I have a slight disability and I walk ''funny'' and that what I think was it. Thank you idiots for ruining my night. Also spoke to the 'manager'. Security pointed to a guy completely stoned, he did not said a word when I complained. Not sure of security either the guys didn't have Blue Badge and refused to give their names. Places like this one should be closed down.
Haven't been to the club for several years. It's just sad. Total time wast !!! ANd the staff!!! What's wrong with these people. They are pathetic!
One year on from the previous reviews, nothing has changed with this ridiculously awful place. I agree the door policy is abusive and discriminatory - don't waste your time travelling to this club on the off-chance you will be turned away, moved about or generally insulted by the inexperienced and aggressive door staff. Back in the day when hosted at Astoria G-A-Y was a fun, welcoming place which encouraged all ages, sizes and types to mix together in relaxed harmony - it used to be a refreshing place in a 'gay scene' which is traditionally obsessed with looks and glamour. Sadly The Astoria was tragically knocked down and for some reason G-A-Y chose its new home at Heaven. The place now attracts a "hip young crowd", tagged along by fake blone hair fag hags or groups of "trendoids". Having boycotted the place for some years now following an awful night immediately after the relocation, we decided to return TWICE in the last few weeks to see if the place had changed....sadly not. The first time we were "selected" to leave the queue and join another queue right on the other side of the building, only to find out the other queue was 10 times longer and had already been informed that if in that queue only "members" would be getting in...awful, given that we were practically inside in the original queue. Upon returning last week we were told we were "too drunk" by a "head bouncer" who appeared from nowhere and hadn't actually seen us - as it was 12.30 am OF COURSE we had been drinking, but no, we were not drunk - we attempted to discuss the matter with the young cronies of "head of security", i.e. to demonstrate we were talking rationally and not aggressively, we simply wanted to know upon what basis we were "too drunk" but no, we were shouted at to "get out of the queue". Yes, we are in our 30's, so perhaps this was the reason...disgusting. Upon leaving a young twink screeched at me that I hadn't been asked to leave because we were too drunk, but "because your hair looks like straw". This kind of confirmed that the place was not for me anyway and will NOT be returning. Bring back the old G-A-Y....or just go to Vauxhall instead.
Very unpleasant and pretencious staff, atmosphere is not a patch on Astoria that preceded it
horrible place, horrible staff and horrible atmosphere!

Patricia still sounds patrician, though its scores of nicknames definitely don't. Wildly popular from the forties (alternately Number 3 and 4 during the decade) through the sixties, Patricia has been fading ever since—but a comeback in its full form is definitely conceivable—just look at Penelope.
Patricia began not in Ireland, as some may think, but evolved in Scotland, going on to become mega popular in Britain after the christening of Queen Victoria's granddaughter, Princess Patricia of Connaught, known as "Princess Pat" (though called Patsy by the family).
Several of Patricia's short forms took on lives of their own—first Patsy, which was replaced by Patti/Patty, followed by the more upwardly mobile Tricia, Trisha, Trish, Tisha, and Tish. The one form that hasn't been picked up here, but is often heard in England on its own, is the fresher sounding Patia. Patrizia is an attractive Italian version.
Two bestselling contemporary novelists are Patricia Highsmith and Patricia Cornwell.
Trivia tidbits: Pat Nixon was born Thelma, and Patricia is Rooney Mara's birth name.

Laurel Highlands board increases taxes
The average taxpayer in the Laurel Highlands School District whose home is assessed at $100,000 will pay an additional $63 in real estate taxes this year.
The Laurel Highlands School Board voted 6-2 this week to adopt a $44.5 million budget for 2013-2014 that calls for a .636-mill tax hike, increasing the millage from the current rate of 14.69 to 15.33 mills.
"The increase will cost the average taxpayer about 7 cents per day," Superintendent Jesse Wallace said on Thursday.
School board members Jamie Miller-D'Andrea and Beverly Beal voted against the tax increase. School board member Tom Vernon abstained from voting.
Wallace said the tax increase will allow the school district to recall six furloughed teachers and two custodians.
"We furloughed a total of 22 employees last year, but those employees will be coming back to work," Wallace said. "Some of them returned because of retirements, and others were recalled because of budget increases."
Wallace said the budget will allow the school district to spend an additional $300,000 to purchase new textbooks for students.
"The district has not purchased new textbooks for the past three years," Wallace said. "We really need the textbooks for educational purposes."
Because of budgetary increases, Wallace said the school district can reduce its debt service, which was created by a $39 million building/renovation project at the senior high school.
"The budget will allow the school district to restore employees, decrease class sizes, purchase textbooks and reduce the debt service," Wallace said.
Wallace said the state has continued to inform its 501 school districts that the "responsibility of education lies in the local communities."
Miller-D'Andrea said she voted against the tax increase because "the school district needs to stay within its means."
"I would like to see the taxpayers get a break," Miller-D'Andrea said.
Beal said she doesn't understand why the school district raised taxes when it has a $3 million fund balance.
"No one likes to raise taxes," school board President Jim Tobal said. "I call on the two school directors to tell us what to cut. Should we cut the teachers or the maintenance? I want to see the school district prosper. I want to make sure our students receive the education they need."
Tobal said the teachers have already taken a two-year wage freeze.
Beal said she is concerned because the school district only has one custodian in the elementary schools.
She made a motion to hire two additional custodians, but later withdrew it when school board members and administrators said they would check to see if there was enough money in the budget to pay the additional custodians.
A decision on the custodial positions is expected to be made before the start of the 2013-2014 school year.

Saved By The Bell -- DVD Review
Somewhere along the lines Saved By The Bell ended up rerunning on cable at the perfect time to fit into my daily routine, and I got in the habit of watching it regularly. I'm not positive that I have seen every last episode, but I know I'm pretty close. So, you could say I was a fan of the show. That, or I really should have popped for the more expensive cable plan all those years ago.
And that part plays into how you are going to see this DVD. Just after I finished watching it I was talking to a friend that was never a fan, and she asked how it was. My summation to her, and to you, is that if you aren't a fan already, it's not going to make you one. But if you have fond memories of the show, these movies capture the spirit of the show very well, and they hold up despite the 15 years that have passed. Sure, they're still corny, with their fair share of cheese, but that's part of the fun.
"Hawaiian Style" is the better of the two movies. It actually plays out like a Scooby Doo mystery, albeit one with a lot less ghosts and a lot more Tiffani Amber Thiessen in a bikini. The gang goes to visit Kelly's (Daphne) grandfather in Hawaii. There is a conspiracy by an evil developer to run Gramps off of his land, but Zach (Fred) hatches a plan to thwart the evil doers. Somewhere along the lines a group of native Hawaiians mistake Screech (Shaggy) for their reincarnated chief. Eventually Lisa (Velma) uncovers the clue that solves the mystery. Make Jessie Kelly's Hawaiian cousin and turn Slater into an animated dog and you've got yourself a movie. The only thing missing is the last line. I would have got away with it too, if not for these meddling kids and their damn principal.
Unfortunately, "Wedding in Las Vegas" came late in the game, so we only get brief appearances by Mr. Belding and Jessie at the wedding. The story isn't quite as good, but it serves the purpose. The whole thing centers around a trip to Vegas for Kelly and Zach to get married. Of course, being Saved By The Bell, hijinks ensue. You find Screech and Zach working as male escorts, the gang stumbling in the middle of a mob backed diamond heist, Lisa hitting it off with a hippie, and one or two too many touching montages reflecting back on Kelly and Zach over the years.
In addition, there is some great casting in the movies. "Hawaiian Style" features Rena Sofer (24, Heroes, The Chronicle), Dean Jones (A whole pile of great Disney stuff), and Dan Gauthier (Melrose Place). With "Wedding in Las Vegas" you'll find one of my favorite actresses, Liz Vassey (CSI, The Tick, Maximum Bob), along with Mark DeCarlo and Gilbert Gottfried. My favorite bit of casting though, comes in the form of a bit part. Playing Deputy Dano, one of the cops that busts the boys for speeding in a remote Nevada town, is none other than Richard Schiff (West Wing, pictured).
On the DVD features front, things are sorely lacking. And by sorely lacking, I mean non-existent. No commentaries, no bloopers, not even a behind the scenes featurette. Any or all of those would have been a welcome addition. The disc also suffers when compared to the other TV on DVD releases in the looks department. It just doesn't measure up to the picture quality you see in other recent offerings. That's partly understandable given the age of the material, but when you consider the lack of extras, I don't think there was a lot of attention paid to getting the best version they could.
Overall, it's a mini-set that I would recommend for Saved By The Bell fans, Richard Schiff completists, and anyone that likes the idea of a Kelly Kapowski bikini movie. If you're not one of those three, you'll probably want to move on down the DVD aisle and keep browsing. The DVD is available starting today.

In which urban planners (re)discover that food brings people togetherSeptember 2nd, 2010 at 12:24 am ET
…namely, that "if your aim is to attract people, food and drink are the main attractions," in the words of Philip Myrick of the Project for Public Spaces.
The occasion is this story about cafe life in Portland — you can read it. Myrick's point is that if you want people to organically gather on the streets of your neighborhood, you need food and drink, suitable for all ages and stages in the community, sold and served in a way that lets people consume them in an organic fashion outdoors or visible from the street.
All true. But argh!
I don't disagree with any of this, it's all true, and I mean no disrespect to the exceptionally committed people at PPS — my reaction is more a sense of frustration and missed opportunity that this isn't intuitively obvious, that it has to be said, and re-said, and re-re-said every decade or so, to every generation. If you, dear reader, are just figuring this out now, what have you been doing to your own downtown for the past 25 years? And how many young people have you driven away, how many working-age people have you effectively locked in their office buildings all day for how many days/weeks/years, how many old people have you consigned to spend their waning days sitting in their apartments (or, worse, sitting on a bench in the mall) because there's nowhere worth going to?
Let's get with it, America!
Anyone older than about 60 who grew up in a healthy community probably already knows that food is at the center of everything social. Nevermind community events like church socials and picnics — every town over a thousand people had a drugstore, with big plate-glass windows and a soda fountain or lunch counter, once upon a time, where you could see people going about the private business of eating in a semi-public way. And even younger people know it, if we've lived part of our lives in a healthy big city. I was living in the newly minted municipality of West Hollywood when the first round of modern artisanal coffehouses appeared in the early 1990s; the moment cafes started to appear, whole new populations began to use the street. Nothing has driven the sidewalk re-revitalization of Santa Monica Boulevard over the past decade more than streetfront dining.
Closer to home, think of New York: the most transformational change to the streetscape in the five years I've been here has been the simple addition of lots of chairs and tables all over the place, including in what used to be traffic lanes in the middle of Times Square. People want to sit down and, very often, eat and drink, in public. What are the healthiest public spaces in Lower Manhattan? One of them is Stone Street, which today is given over almost entirely to street dining. (Photo above: the pop-up cafe thrown up by the DOT on nearby Pearl Street last month.)
Or look at the opposite case. I was on a message-board thread this week about Fulton Mall, the tattered retail strip in downtown Brooklyn that (due to the volume of people passing through, and the lack of local alternatives) commands among the highest retail rents in New York City, despite the fact that nobody can stand it. Sure, Fulton Mall is filthy and disorderly and way too crowded, but if you've ever been to, say, the Venice boardwalk in Los Angeles, you know that filth and disorder and crowds are not sufficient to make a place unlovable. There's something else. And something landscape designer Gil Lopez said on the list reminded me that one of the reasons everyone hates Fulton Mall is also one of the most obvious: there's nothing to eat except junk, and there's nowhere to sit down and eat it!ShareThis

It's Time for Africa
It is clear that there is increasing appetite for Africa as an investment destination. Both investment flows into the continent's markets and the number of funds focused on the region are increasing as low yields in developed countries prompt investors to search for high returns in previously unexplored emerging markets. This is good news for the continent.
Investors considering putting funds into a new investment destination look for a number of things including: a sound economy, companies with promise and, for listed investments, a stock exchange with regulatory and operational standards which meet investor standards. In each context, exchanges must have predictable sets of rules, fair operating schemes and properly operating systems. If any of these factors aren't present, another investment destination may be found.
A major hurdle for investors wanting to put money into Africa is the difficulty involved in transacting on a large number of small exchanges, some with as few as five listed companies and each with its own regulatory system – often very different from the regulatory systems investors are used to. It is a disincentive to investors to trawl through different standards to establish whether these are acceptable. Particularly for multinational institutions, the investigation required into each market is not always worth the effort, given the low number of potential investment opportunities and the relative high costs of executing trades in these markets.
While many African markets are small, nevertheless economies need those local markets as part of well functioning and mature capital market systems. One way to achieve development of a mature capital market system is to have one integrated exchange for the continent.
In theory a single stock exchange would be good for the continent and could make it a viable investment destination, attracting more investment in the continent's less developed markets. There have been some calls to pursue such integration.
However there are also other ways to achieve the same goal, such as providing opportunities for top African issuers to list on their home exchanges and dual list on a globally recognised exchange. Another is technologically linking exchanges and routing orders to one another. The Johannesburg Stock Exchange is working on both of these to achieve with issuers, investors and other exchanges across the continent.
A discussion on capital markets at the Africa Forum of the World Economic Forum in May 2010 recognised that although many African stock exchanges have outperformed those in developed markets during the global financial crisis, many of these financial markets are not yet sufficiently large or developed to cater to the region's financing needs.[1]
The participants at the Forum, held in Tanzania, noted that in sketching out a roadmap to redesign Africa's capital markets:
• "A predictable regulatory framework and access to information is critical, as is the ease of doing business and a competitive tax regime across a region;
• The optimal execution for transactions is key. Investors should be able to decentralize their investments and easily repatriate funds;
• To give African exchanges credibility on the global stage, they should become members of institutions such as the International Organization of Securities Commissions and the World Federation of Stock Exchanges (WFE); and
• The support of regulators is essential. National exchanges could work closely with central banks to convince – and educate – policy-makers that frameworks to support robust capital markets are needed."
The JSE, a long-standing member of the WFE, is positioning itself as a gateway to investors worldwide wishing to access opportunities throughout the African continent and has developed the strategic links and technological capacity to do so. The South African exchange is known to investors globally, who have developed a level of comfort with its systems and regulatory framework. The JSE's Africa strategy is in line with its commitment to various Africa-centric business and stock exchange organisations, including the Committee of Southern African Development Community Stock Exchanges, the Association of Stock Exchanges in Africa and the Nepad Business Foundation.
We are doing this in four main ways.
First, we have created an Africa Board, a listing venue for companies domiciled in Africa or with assets on the continent. Companies listed on the Africa Board may well be listed elsewhere in Africa also and will have a listing on the JSE. Infrastructure for the new board, which uses existing equity trading systems, was completed by end-2008. The Africa Board was launched in early 2009, welcoming Trustco of Namibia as its first listing.
For issuers, a listing on the Africa Board increases liquidity in their shares, gives increased visibility and access to a liquid, cost effective and easily accessible exchange with extended trading hours. For investors, the board offers access African stock on a secure, cost effective and easily accessible trading platform and through an exchange that is World Federation of Exchange (WFE) accredited. It offers guaranteed settlement of all central order book trades and globally accepted standards of corporate governance.
In the run up to the launch of the Africa Board and during the months that followed, the Africa Board team has travelled extensively on the continent, meeting with exchanges, regulators, issuers and brokers. The aim of the meetings was to strengthen relations and build an understanding of the Africa Board model as a win-win solution for issuers and investors and generally increases liquidity in the issuer's shares listed on other exchanges as well. Though the board was created at a low period for new listings globally, we believe we are making good progress and we expect increased listings once global financial uncertainty has subsided and issuers have obtained the necessary domestic regulatory approval. We were delighted when Wilderness Safaris joined the Africa Board this year.
Second, we have launched a series of indices which reflect issuers listed in countries across the continent to enable investors to track the performance of top issuers across the continent.
Third we are developing a hub and spoke model of technologically linking exchanges and routing orders and data to and from African exchanges.
Fourth, the exchange is working to forge closer relationships with African exchanges to help develop new businesses and markets. This includes working with various exchanges on the continent to ready themselves to be admitted to the World Federation of Exchanges. The JSE continues to create joint initiatives and to foster long-term relationships and business entities in South Africa, the SADC and the continent in order to increase interest and awareness in the local financial markets and to highlight the continent's financial opportunities.
The debate about the development of African markets and the call for integration comes at a time when developing markets are under the spotlight as the global financial crisis pushes investors to look for investment returns elsewhere to offset sluggish returns in the slow-growing developed world. An increasing number of institutions are finding investment bargains in lesser known markets on the continent.
The time is therefore appropriate to make use of this momentum and interest to make investment in Africa more 'mainstream' rather than a temporary alternative, with the aim of attracting longer-term and more consistent investment flows. The JSE, which is home to companies whose combined value makes up about three quarters of all those listed on exchanges across the continent, believes that it has a workable solution to this while contributing to the development of markets within their own economies.

Vicki HowardAssociate Professor of History
Where are you from?/Where did you go to school?
I'm originally from Vancouver, BC, Canada. I received my Ph.D. in American Studies at the University of Texas at Austin.
Why is the "Liberal Arts in Practice" method an effective way for your students to learn?
Students in my history courses learn the art of historical interpretation through hands-on experience with primary-source documents in Hartwick's rich archives, through materials I bring to class, and through digitized historical documents.
What about your work energizes/excites you?
I am fascinated by large historical transformations, such as industrialization and de-industrialization, and by the way traditional practices survive in the face of such major economic and social change. All my intellectual endeavors come back to these economic transformations and their effect on culture. For example, these interests have shaped my curriculum development in American history here at Hartwick, leading to courses like "American Consumer Society," "Main Street USA," "American Business History," and "Food in America."
Do you consider yourself a mentor to students? In what way?
Every new research paper a student undertakes presents the possibility of new discovery or the creation of new knowledge. In upper-division history seminars, I get the chance to guide students in primary-source research. I spend a lot of time helping them find productive sources and I enjoy working individually with them on the documents.
What are your classes like?/What is your best place to teach?
In my history courses, I always try to find connections between the past and students' contemporary experience. Every day before class, I scan the New York Times to see if I can find current news items to bring in that reflect upon our day's subject matter. Sometimes I also check YouTube. I like teaching in the classrooms in Yager, which is the library building. There, we can easily make trips down to the Hartwick archives, the periodical section, the stacks, and the computer lab for hands on research activities, which we do frequently.
Have you won any awards/special honors/recognition?
Yes, most recent list is included below.
- Hartwick College Faculty Research Grant, 2011-2012 for book project, Snack Food Nation: Big Business and the Transformation of American Food-ways in the 20th Century.
- Winifred Wandersee Scholar-in-Residence Award, 2009-2010, Hartwick College.
- Nebraska State Historical Society, Research Grant, Lincoln, NE 2007-2008 for project titled "National v. Local Consumer Culture: A Nebraskan Department Store Case Study."
- Hartwick College Faculty Research Grants, 2007-2010 for book project The Rise and Fall of the American Department Store, 1890-2005.
- Smithsonian Postdoctoral Fellowship, June-August, 2002 (six months awarded)
What research are you doing, how do you engage your students in your work?
Some of my courses come directly out of the expertise I gained doing research for my book and future book projects. I taught a course titled "Weddings, Marriage, and the Family: Historical Perspectives," which built of research conducted for my first book. A recent course I've taught, titled "Main Street USA," came out of research conducted for an upcoming book on the history of downtown department stores. Another recent course, titled "Food in America," reflects reading I've been doing for my next book, which will be a history of industrial foods.
What are your most recent publications, scholarly works, exhibitions, performances?
My work for the last two years includes:
"Weddings in American Consumer Society, 1945-1970s." RTAP 110 Module in Retrieving the American Past. Customized U.S. History reader published by Pearson Custom Publishing, Boston, MA: Spring 2012.
Review of Tracey Deutsch, Building a Housewife's Paradise: Gender, Politics, and American Grocery Stores in the Twentieth Century. Journal of American History. March 2011.
"A History of Department Store Advertising in Newspapers, Radio, and Television, 1890-1960s. The Journal of Historical Research in Marketing. Special Issue on Retailing. January 2010.
"The Bridal Business: Teaching Strategies for Business History." The Organization of American Historian's Magazine of History: A Quarterly Magazine for Teachers of History. January 2010. Issue on Business History. Edited by Pamela W. Laird and Mark H. Rose.
What is your most valued Hartwick experience?
Teaching a first-year seminar. I like to meet freshmen. They have so much energy and idealism. Also, I like seeing students graduate and go on to the next stage of their lives. Commencement is a happy event.

LGUs need to care for the trees, too-A A +A
By Kevin A. Lagunda and Oscar C. Pineda
Friday, August 15, 2014
LOCAL Government Units (LGUs) should help the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) in nurturing trees, an environmentalist said.
Dr. Roger Guzman, a retired forestry professor at Isabela State University, said DENR does not have enough funds to constantly monitor environmental concerns.
"It is also undermanned," he said. "The LGUs can provide support."
His appeal came after he inspected diseased trees in Naga City last Wednesday.
In separate interviews yesterday, two mayors said they have no funds to treat diseased trees in their locality.
Naga City Mayor Valdermar Chiong said there is no appropriation for it in their budget for this year.
Although the life of the tree will be extended for another 10 years if it is treated, Chiong said it is just a matter of time that they will have to be taken down.
"Mao na sab ang problema when that time comes, maayo pang putlon na lang na (We will still encounter the same problem when that time comes, so it will be better to cut them now)," he said yesterday.
For Carcar Mayor Nicepuro Apura, the cost of treating the trees should not be shouldered by the LGU.
"It's their proposal so they must shoulder the cost or share it with those who oppose the cutting because we don't have the budget for the treatment of trees in Carcar City," he said.
Leo Remitar, DENR 7 forest protection and law enforcement section chief, reminded local officials that LGUs are mandated under the Local Government Code to help national agencies.
Section 3(i) of the law states: "Local government units shall share with the national government the responsibility in the management and maintenance of ecological balance within their territorial jurisdiction, subject to the provisions of this Code and national policies."
In 2012, the DENR issued a special permit to the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) to cut down 42 trees, including eight old acacia trees.
The permit was issued to facilitate road-widening works on the national highway of Naga City, San Fernando and Carcar City.
But the permit was suspended following public outrage over the cutting of century-old trees.
However, when two acacia trees fell last month, causing heavy traffic and damage to properties, local officials called on DENR to allow the cutting of the trees.
The cutting of the trees was stopped when Environment Secretary Ramon Paje ordered DENR regional offices to return all applications for tree cutting permits and environmental compliance certificates related to DPWH's road-widening projects across the country.
Yesterday, Guzman continued inspecting the century-old acacia trees in San Fernando and Carcar City with DENR foresters and the Movement for a Livable Cebu (MLC) led by its convenor Rudy Alix.
Guzman, also the executive director of the conservation group Philippine Federation for Environmental Concern, only recommended pruning and proper caring of the trees.
He said the pruning of branches of some trees he inspected must be an "immediate action" because they might cause harm to the public.
He further suggested to the DENR to conduct a deeper assessment that includes the state of the soil where the trees stand.
Guzman examined six acacia trees in San Fernando, including the one that fell in Barangay Balud last July 9.
The toppled acacia is already a dead tree because the roots were already rotten, said Guzman.
He said the drainage near the tree contributed to the decay.
Three of the acacias were recommended by DENR for immediate cutting because of their reported "diseased" state, but Guzman said the trees can still recover.
"They just needed treatment and pruning," he said.
The third acacia tree that the group examined has a hollow portion in the trunk and Guzman said it needs "surgery."
"It can be cemented but before doing it, it must be cleaned very well," he told the foresters.
The trunk, he said, will eventually heal on its own.
Guzman later told foresters that the balite tree should be detached from one of the acacias. He said the balite is a parasitic tree that can kill its host.
DENR officer Filemon Embalzado Jr. told Guzman about the possibility of being criticized again if they heavily prune some trees.
"We are not killing the tree, we are improving its health," said Guzman.
In Carcar City, the group only inspected the acacia that toppled in Barangay Perrelos.
Guzman said he noticed garbage in the tree's base, which was also burnt.
"It (garbage) accelerated the decay in the root system," he said.
Last Wednesday afternoon, Guzman was in Naga City to inspect the trees that DENR recommended to be cut.
For his part, Remitar said the public must be educated on the proper way to maintain trees and the LGUs must also do their share in protecting the environment.
He cited the Department of Interior and Local Government and the Department of Budget and Management joint memorandum issued in 2011, ordering the LGUs to allot no less than 20 percent of their Internal Revenue Allotment for development projects, including environmental management.
Environment-related programs include "reforestation and urban greening; construction or rehabilitation of sanitary landfills, material recovery facilities and purchase of garbage trucks and related equipment."
Other projects are the implementation of flood and erosion control projects such as rehabilitation and construction of drainage systems, de-silting of rivers, de-clogging of canals, and other environmental management projects that promote air and water quality, as well as productivity of the coastal or freshwater habitat, agricultural land and forest land.
The MLC will invite Naga City Mayor Val Chiong, Carcar City Mayor Nicepuro Apura, San Fernando Mayor Antonio Canoy and other government officials to the presentation today of the consolidated report on Guzman's inspection of the trees.

PAWTUCKET — There are coffee drinkers who describe their favorite brew as "regular" or "light with two sugars." Then there are others whose assessment would go something like this: "a heavy, syrupy body and flavors of brown sugar and crème brulee give way to nectarine acidity and a clean, dry grapefruit finish."

CDC: Listeria infection kills 13 in US, infects 72
Posted By kurtnimmo On September 28, 2011 @ 8:27 am In Medical Tyranny,Old Infowars Posts Style | Comments Disabled
September 28, 2011
(Reuters) – A listeria outbreak linked to cantaloupes from Colorado has infected 72 people in the United States and killed 13, U.S. health officials said on Tuesday.
The foodborne outbreak is the deadliest in the United States in more than a decade, exceeding the 2008-2009 salmonella outbreak from tainted peanuts that killed nine and infected more than 700 people in the United States, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
So far, 18 states have reported infections from one of the four strains of listeria involved in the outbreak, the CDC said.
Of the 13 deaths, four were in New Mexico, two were in Colorado, two were in Texas, and there was one each in Kansas, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma. All of the illnesses started on or after July 31.

The Case for Rudy
March 04, 2007
Steven Malanga
Not since Teddy Roosevelt took on Tammany Hall a century ago has a New York politician closely linked to urban reform looked like presidential timber. But today former, New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani sits at or near the top of virtually every poll of potential 2008 presidential candidates. Already, Mr. Giuliani's popularity has set off a "stop Rudy" movement among cultural conservatives, who object to his three marriages and his support for abortion rights, gay unions and curbs on gun ownership. But in a GOP presidential field in which cultural and religious conservatives may find something to object to in every candidate who could really get nominated (and, more important, elected), Mr. Giuliani may be the most conservative candidate on a wide range of issues. Far from being a liberal, he ran New York with a conservative's priorities: Government exists above all to keep people safe in their homes and in the streets, he said, not to redistribute income, run a welfare state, or perform social engineering. The private economy, not government, creates opportunity, he argued; government should just deliver basic services well and then get out of the private sector's way.
To those of us who observed Mr. Giuliani from the time he was elected in 1994, it was astonishing how fully he followed through on his conservative principles.
For Mr. Giuliani, the revival of New York started with securing public safety, because all other agendas were useless if residents didn't feel protected. He instituted a zero-tolerance approach that cracked down on quality-of-life offenses like panhandling and public urination, to restore a sense of civic order that he believed would discourage larger crimes.
"Murder and graffiti are two vastly different crimes," he explained. "But they are part of the same continuum, and a climate that tolerates one is more likely to tolerate the other."
Mr. Giuliani changed the primary mission of the Police Department to preventing crime rather than merely responding to it. His police chief, William Bratton, reorganized the NYPD, emphasizing a street-crimes unit that moved around the city, flooding high-crime areas and getting guns off the street. Chief Bratton also changed the department's scheduling. Crime was open for business 24 hours a day, but most detectives, including narcotics cops, had previously gone off duty at 5 p.m., just as criminals were coming on duty. No more.
The department brought modern management techniques to its new mission. It began compiling a computerized database to track crime patterns and the effectiveness of the NYPD's responses to them. That database, known as Compstat, helped police target their manpower where it was needed, and in due course it became a national model.
The policing innovations during the Giuliani years, 1994 through 2001, led to a drop in total crime by 64 percent, and murders decreased by 67 percent. The annual number of cars stolen in New York City plummeted by 78,000.
Mr. Giuliani applied the same management principles to social and economic policy, with equally impressive results. Long before President Bush's "ownership" society, Mr. Giuliani described his intention to restore New York as the "entrepreneurial city," not merely providing the climate for new job creation but also reshaping policy away from encouraging dependency and toward reinforcing independence.
Welfare Reform
He decided to launch a welfare revolution, first setting out to recertify everyone in the city's own home-relief program to eliminate fraud. In less than a year, the rolls of the program (for able-bodied adults not eligible for federal welfare programs) declined by 20 percent, as the city discovered tens of thousands of recipients who were actually employed, living outside the city, or providing false Social Security numbers.
Mr. Giuliani then instituted a work requirement for the remaining home-relief recipients, mostly men, obliging them to earn their checks by cleaning city parks and streets or doing clerical work in municipal offices for 20 hours a week. By 1999, the number of welfare recipients finding work had risen to more than 100,000 annually, and the welfare rolls had dropped by more than 600,000.
Mr. Giuliani also set out to change the city's conversation about race. He objected to affirmative action, ending Gotham's set-aside program for minority contractors, and he rejected the idea of lowering standards for minorities. Accordingly, he ended open enrollment at the City University of New York, a 1970s policy aimed at increasing the minority population at the nation's third-largest public college system but one that also led to a steep decline in standards and in graduation rates. A blue-chip panel, led by former Yale president Benno Schmidt, recommended other changes, including tightening admissions standards and eliminating remedial courses for students at the system's 11 senior colleges.
Within a few years, CUNY was attracting 20 percent more students from New York's elite high schools, SAT scores of incoming freshmen had risen 168 points, and the student population reached its highest number since the mid-1970s.
Mr. Giuliani's efforts to revive entrepreneurial New York focused on unleashing the city's private sector through tax cuts achieved by slowing the growth of government. "City government should not and cannot create jobs through government planning," he said. "The best it can do, and what it has a responsibility to do, is to deal with its own finances first, to create a solid budgetary foundation that allows businesses to move the economy forward on the strength of their energy and ideas."
When Mr. Giuliani took office, the city's private sector had shrunk to its lowest level since 1978, losing 192,000 jobs in 1991 alone, the largest one-year job decline that any American city had ever suffered. Gotham also had the highest overall rate of taxation of any major city and a budget that spent far more per capita than any other major city. Despite that, New York could barely pay its bills, and Mr. Giuliani, immediately after taking office, faced a nearly $2.5 billion budget deficit.
His first budget stunned the city's political establishment by its fiscal conservatism. After years of tax hikes, Mr. Giuliani proposed making up the city's still-huge deficit entirely through spending cuts and savings. Even more audaciously, he proposed a modest tax cut to signal the business community that New York was open for business.
"Nobody ever cut a tax before in New York City, and that was one of the reasons I wanted to set a new precedent," Mr. Giuliani later explained.
To balance the city's budget early in his tenure, when tax revenues stagnated amid a struggling economy, the mayor played hardball, winning concessions from city workers that other mayors had failed to get. The city's police unions had previously used their power in Albany to resist efforts to merge the city's housing police and transit police into the NYPD. Mr. Giuliani strong-armed Albany leaders into agreeing to the merger, saving the city hundreds of millions in administrative costs, by threatening to fire every housing and transit officer and rehire each as a city cop. During his first year in office, Mr. Giuliani reduced city-funded spending by 1.6 percent, the largest overall reduction since the Depression.
Tax Cuts
One of his initial budgetary moves was to cut the city's hotel tax. When tourism rebounded, Mr. Giuliani pointed out that the city was collecting more in taxes from a lower rate. "Targeted tax reductions," he later said, "spur growth." In his eight years in office, he reduced or eliminated 23 taxes, including the sales tax on some clothing purchases and the tax on commercial rents outside of Manhattan's major business districts.
The combination of a safer city and a better budget environment ignited an economic boom. Construction permits increased by more than 50 percent, to 70,000 a year. The number of tourists soared from 24 million in the early 1990s to 38 million in 2000. The city gained some 430,000 jobs to reach its all-time employment peak of 3.72 million in 2000, while the unemployment rate dropped from 10.3 to 5.1 percent. Personal income earned by New Yorkers, meanwhile, soared by $100 million, while the percentage of their income that they paid in taxes declined from 8.8 to 7.3 percent. During Mr. Giuliani's second term, the city's economy consistently grew faster than the nation's.
Today, Americans see Mr. Giuliani as presidential material because of his leadership in the wake of the terrorist attacks, but to those of us who watched him first manage America's biggest city when it was crime-ridden, financially shaky and plagued by doubts about its future, Mr. Giuliani's leadership on 9/11 came as no surprise. What Americans saw after the attacks is a combination of attributes that Mr. Giuliani governed with all along: the tough-mindedness that had gotten him through earlier civic crises, a no-nonsense and efficient management style, and a clarity and directness of speech that made plain what he thought needed to be done and how he would do it.
As "America's mayor," a sobriquet he earned after 9/11, Mr. Giuliani has a unique profile as a presidential candidate. And if social and religious conservatives fret about Mr. Giuliani's more liberal social views, nevertheless, in the general election such views might make this experience-tested conservative even more electable.
