Board, the Board of Regents and a committee of 3 from the
faculty, 1 from each College to be appointed by the re-
spective Deans.
2) Publications Committee
Motion by Mr. Sheerin passed unanimously that the follow-
ing regulations presented by the Committee on Publica-
tions, be approved:
Regulations of the Committee on Publications concerning
Bulletins issued by the various Divisions of the Univer-
sity of Nevada
1. All bulletins must have the name of the University
of Nevada prominently displayed on the cover and on
the title page. If possible, both the cover and the
title page shall carry the official seal of the
University of Nevada.
2. So far as desirable, each Division of the University
shall adopt a format through which there will be
some uniformity in the appearance of the bulletins
issued by that Division.
3. Routine bulletins which do not involve University
policy in any way shall not require the approval
of the Committee.
4. Any bulletins, however, involving University policy
shall be submitted in manuscript form to the Commit-
tee for its approval. The Head of each Division
shall be responsible to the Administration for de-
termining whether each bulletin involves University
policy, and, if it does, for submitting it to the
5. All new bulletins other than routine must be sub-
mitted to the Committee for its approval.
6. New research by teaching faculty members to be
submitted to the Publications Committee in bulletin
form, shall be approved by the Research Committee,
before it is referred to the Publications Comittee.
7. Any bulletin involving University public relations
shall first be submitted to the Public Relations
Committee for its approval and then taken up with
the Publications Committee.
8. Where there may be a considerable difference of
opinion about the contents of any subject matter
bulletin, the Publications Committee deems it ad-
visable that the author invite staff members in his
own or similar fields to review the manuscript be-
fore submitting it to the Publications Committee.
9. In submitting a manuscript to the Publications Com-
mittee for its approval, the Head of each Division
shall submit along with the official application
form, properly filled out, a regular University
requisition for the printing of the bulletin, ap-
proved by the Comptroller and the President of the
University of Nevada and indicating where the print-
ing will be done.
10. Requisitions must be submitted to the Comptroller
and the President by the Head of any Division plan-
ning to publish a routine bulletin before publica-
tion is undertaken, even though such bulletins do
not require the approval of the Publications Commit-
11. Student publications are not within the jurisdiction
of this Committee.
12. The Committee does not attempt any supervision of
articles by staff members for publication in profes-
sional journals.
13. 25 copies of each bulletin published by the Univer-
sity shall be deposited in the University Library.
3) Livestock
Motion by Mr. Cahlan passed unanimously that:
a) University livestock (including Experimental Station
animals) may be exhibited at County and State Fairs,
and may be shown in competition with other livestock
exhibited at such Fairs, if the rules of the Fair
Association permit;
b) Agreements may be made with cooperative livestock
breeding associations organized and controlled by
Nevada farmers and livestock men, whereby semen from
University sires may be supplied to said associa-
tions, when such service will not interfere with the
breeding of College and Experiment Station animals.
Comptroller's Report and Recommendations:
1) Heating Plant Boilers
a) Dr. Gorman reported that 4 fire tube boilers from the
Reno Army Air Base Heating Plant have been allocated
the University of Nevada for 5% of the junk value, or
$227.50. However, if the University accepts on a 5%
basis, the Heating Plant will have to be used exclusive-
ly for heating of classroom buildings, which will not
fit into the proposed plan for the new Heating Plant.
If the University pays 20% of the junk value, in this
case amounts to $910, the Heating Plant is then the
property of the University and can be used in whatever
manner we desire. These boilers cost the Government
from $100,000 to $120,000.
The action of the Comptroller in purchasing the boilers
from the Government for $910 was approved.
b) Mr. Sheerin presented to the Board the views of the
State Planning Board as given to him at a meeting in
Elko, in considering a report prepared by Keller and
Gannon of San Francisco addressed to Blanchard, Maher
and Lockhard, advising against the use of fire tube
boilers, and indicating that the University would suffer
a financial loss even though these boilers were secured
from the Reno Army Air Base at no cost to the Univer-
sity. The recommendation of Keller and Gannon is for
water tube boilers.
c) At 11 A.M. Mr. Pistor, Engineer for Headman, Ferguson
and Carollo of Phoenix, Arizona, met with the Regents
and presented a typewritten report for Heating Plant
revision to make use of the fire tube boilers from the
Air Base. Mr. Pistor's report indicated that a great
saving would result to the University from their in-
stallation, that the efficiency of the Heating Plant
would not be impaired, and that the size of the Heating
Plant building would remain the same.
Motion by Mrs. Henningsen passed unanimously that the Re-
gents receive the report presented by Mr. Pistor and that
it be submitted to the State Planning Board.
It was the unanimous opinion of the Board that a joint meet-
ing of the Board of Regents and the State Planning Board
should be held at as early a date as possible for the pur-
pose of discussing these two types of boilers; and that Mr.
Pistor should be returned to present his report to the
Boards in joint meeting. Dr. Gorman was appointed to ar-
range such a meeting.
The Board recessed at 12 noon for luncheon in the University
Dining Hall, and was called to order at 1:30 P.M. by Chairman
Ross, with all present.
2) Housing Projects
There is due to the Government on Contract No. 26187,
Trailer Camp Housing, to June 30, 1948, the sum of $1106.34;
and there is due to the Government on Contract No. V27197,
Clark Field Housing, to June 30, 1948, the sum of $2399.95.
Motion by Mr. Sheerin passed unanimously that the Comptrol-
ler be authorized to draw his check in payment of these
Motion by Mr. Sheerin passed unanimously that the following
resolution be adopted:
WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of Sections 4 and 7
of Article XI of the Constitution of the State of Nevada

the same has been amended (1929 Nevada Compiled Laws,
1941 Supplement, Secs. 7727, 7728 and 1929 Nevada Com-
piled Laws, Sec. 7729) the Board of Regents of the State
University (also designated the University of Nevada)
deems it to be for the best interest and welfare of said
University and appropriate to the conduct of the educa-
tional functions provided for it by law, that the re-
quest and waiver hereinafter described be properly exe-
cuted in conformity with all pertinent State and federal
laws, in the name of the University of Nevada and this
Board of Regents, by the officers of this Board there-
unto duly authorized,
NOW, THEREFORE, RESOLVED by the Board of Regents of the
University of Nevada, that the annexed request and waiv-
er reading as follows, to wit:

For relinquishment and transfer of Government's interest
in PHA No. NEV V-26197 consisting of 112 dwelling units
and/or 8 Dormitory units under Contract No. B26197 MPH
1, June 29, 1946.
Pursuant to Section 505 (a) of the Lanham Act (Public
Law 849, 76th Congress) as added by Public Law 796,
80th Congress, the above named educational institution
(herein called "Institution") requests that the Housing
and Home Finance Administrator relinquish and transfer
to the Institution, without monetary consideration, all
contractual rights of the Government (including the
right to revenues and other proceeds) and all property
right title and interest of the United States in and
with respect to the above temporary housing located at
University of Nevada, on land which is owned by State
of Nevada and is controlled by the Institution.
There is attached hereto and made a part hereof an
opinion of the chief law officer or legal counsel of
the Institution in support of this request as required
by Public Law 796.
There is also attached hereto and made a part hereof a
certified copy of a resolution of the governing body
of Board of Regents, University of Nevada, having juris-
diction in the area of the subject housing project,
specifically approving the waiver of the requirements
of Section 313 of the Lanham Act with respect to the
removal of the housing.
In making this request it is understood by the Insti-
tution that net revenues or other proceeds from the
housing shall accrue to the United States under the
terms of the existing contract until the end of the
month in which the rights, title and interest with
respect to such housing are relinquished and trans-
ferred pursuant to this request. It is further under-
stood that in filling vacancies in any housing for
which rights are relinquished or transferred pursuant
to this request preference shall be given to veterans
of World War II or servicemen who are students at the
Institution and their families provided that the Insti-
tution shall be deemed to comply with this requirement
if it makes available to veterans of World War II or
servicemen and their families accommodations in any
housing of the Institution equal in number to the ac-
commodations in the housing for which such rights are
relinquished or transferred.
This request and certification are made by the under-
signed authorized offer of said education institution
this 20 day of September, 1948.

Terry, Secretary of this Board, in triplicate, and de-
livered to the appropriate officer of the Public Housing
Administration or other federal agency authorized to re-
ceive the same.
3) Campus Parking
The Blue Key has found the task of enforcing parking regula-
tions too great a burden and has asked that the University
Administration take it over. After consulting with Reno
City Traffic Officer Berrum, Dr. Gorman presented a plan
whereby the staff of the Buildings and Grounds Department
would place courtesy stickers on the cars of violators. A
second offense would be taken care of by the Comptroller
in the case of a faculty member and by the Blue Key organ-
ization in the case of a student. Further, elimination of
the one-way road regulation through the Campus was recom-
Motion by Mr. Hilliard passed unanimously that the above
recommendation be given a trial and a report made by the
Comptroller at the next meeting of the Board on October
29, 1948.
4) F. L. Bixby has not regained his health and it is doubtful
that he will be well again.
Motion by Mrs. Henningsen passed unanimously that Professor
Bixby be retired as of September 1, 1948 at $114.67 per
month, $14.97 from his policy with the Teachers Insurance
and Annuity Association and $99.70 from the University
Pension Fund; and that, if he does recover sufficiently,
he be returned to active status and salary.
5) Statement of General Funds with estimate of receipts and
expenditures for the period September 1, 1948 to December
31, 1948, showed an estimated balance December 31, 1948
of $1,509.57.
6) Analysis of Dining Hall receipts and expenditures of the
fiscal year 1947-48 showed a net loss of $21,526.68. Due
from the Athletic Scholarship Committee $17,180.09.
Motion by Mrs. Henningsen passed unanimously that the Secre-
tary of the Board write a letter to the Athletic Scholarship
Committee informing them that the Regents are anxious to
have the indebtedness cleaned up.

Academic Deans have been asked to get information into the
Comptroller's office, and figures will be available for the
Regents in October.
Motion by Mr. Hilliard passed unanimously that the next
meeting of the Board be set for October 29 for the purpose
of discussing the budget.
8) Dormitory Buildings
Under the Lanham Act, the University can obtain 2 Dormitory
buildings from the Reno Army Air Base. The Regents inspect-
ed the buildings and were highly pleased. Buildings Nos.
7406 and 7410 have been tentatively allocated to the Uni-
versity, but final papers have not yet been received.
Reporter Alan Mc Gill returned at 2:30 P.M.
9) Out-of-State Tuition
Three letters were presented as follows:
a) Betty Hill
b) Margaret Ann Brown
c) Thomas Wright Croft
In each case a niece or nephew from out-of-state is being
sent to the University of Nevada by a Nevada resident and
is at present making his or her home with that relative.
Mr. Hilliard was asked to give his opinion on the meaning
of "family" in the wording of the law - "tuition shall be
free (a) to all students whose families are bona fide resi-
dents of the State of Nevada." Pending a report from Mr.
Hilliard the matter was left in the hands of the President.
10) Celestial Navigation Trainer
There is available at the Tonopah Army Air Base a Celestial
Navigation Trainer which could be moved and installed on
the University Campus for $7500. No charge would be made
to the University for the Trainer itself. Cost to the
Government was $250,000.
Motion by Mr. Hilliard passed unanimously that Mr. Weld
Arnold of the Civil Engineering Department be sent to
Tonopah to inspect the Celestial Navigation Trainer, that
Professor Irving Sandorf be delegated to talk with the Navy
officials in charge of the Naval Armory on the Campus to
see if similar equipment is to be made available to Univer-
sity students by the Naval Reserve, then
Provided Mr. Arnold reported that the Celestial Navigation
Trainer is usable and needed, and Professor Sandorf reports
that the Naval Reserve Armory does not have duplicate mate-
rial, and further, provided that Dean Palmer is willing to
use money in his College budget for the moving and installa-
tion of the Celestial Navigation Trainer, the Comptroller
is authorized to proceed with negotiations to secure the
11) Fuel Oil Bids
Motion by Mr. Cahlan passed unanimously that the Executive
Committee be authorized to open fuel oil bids on September
24, 1948, for the school year 1948-49.

this installation and the Comptroller was authorized to
expend not to exceed $28,000 for this project.
New Business
1) Retirement Plan - Poolman
President Moseley read a letter from Robert C. Poolman, As-
sistant Professor of Civil Engineering, objecting to entering
the University of Nevada Retirement Plan. The State law pro-
vides that all permanent employees of the University must
accept the plan.
2) Mackay School of Mines
The Board went into executive session and President Moseley
read a letter from Jay A. Carpenter, Director of the Mackay
School of Mines, objecting to the directive that he route
his biennial report through the Dean of Engineering.
At 3 P.M., Mr. Carpenter appeared before the Regents and
made the request that the School of Mines be made a College
of Mining with 3 Departments, Mining, Metallurgy and Geology,
and with a Dean or Director who would be directly responsible
to the President.
Motion by Mr. Hilliard passed unanimously that the Secretary
be instructed to get from minutes of the Board of Regents
information as to when and under what conditions and circum-
stances diplomas for Mining degrees were signed by the Di-
rector of the Mackay School of Mines and when and under what
conditions the practice was abolished.

3) Reno Convalescent Home on Ralston Street has been offered

Motion by Mr. Hilliard carried with Regents Henningsen, Sheerin,
Hilliard and Ross voting "aye" and Regent Cahlan voting "no".
Mr. Cahlan asked that the records show that he believes the sal-
ary increases are justified, but that because of the unusual way
of allocating the money from budgets already set up, and the mis-
understanding which might result with the State Legislature, his
vote is negative.
A warehouse at the Reno Army Air Base, if assigned to the Nation-
al Guard, may be leased for the use of the State, the Schools and
the University.
Motion by Mr. Cahlan passed unanimously that the Comptroller be
authorized to cooperate with the State of Nevada and the schools
in the lease of this building at a cost not to exceed $1000 per
year, and that the Chairman of the Board be authorized to sign
the papers, subject to the approval of the Executive Committee,
if a lease can be negotiated with the National Guard.
Dining Hall
At 11:20 A.M., Dean Mobley, Dean Griffin and Mrs. Nelson, members
of the Dining Hall Committee, appeared before the Board with a
report on Dining Hall operations and the rising cost of food and
supplies. The increase in food costs since April 1, 1948 has
been 10% and an increase in monthly rate for board in the Dining
Hall is requested, from $45 to $50, approximately 11%.
Motion by Mr. Cahlan passed unanimously that the request of the
Dining Hall Committee be granted increasing board from $45 to
$50 per month, effective September 1, 1948.
Death of Paul Sirkegian
Comptroller Gorman was appointed as a committee to prepare reso-
lution on the death of Paul Sirkegian, former Regent, and the
Secretary was instructed to send copies to the family of Mr.
Sirkegian and to the Press.
With profound regret the Regents of the University of Nevada
received notice of the death on August 24, 1948, of former
Regent, the Hon. Paul J. Sirkegian of Kimberly, Nevada - a
veteran of World War I, in which he served with distinction,
and an outstanding graduate of the Mackay School of Mines
with the Class of 1924.
The University and its students, as well as the State of
Nevada, have suffered an irreparable loss in the passing of
this distinguished citizen, alumnus and friend.
Upon his graduation from the University of Nevada he entered
the employ of a copper company in the Ely district where his
integrity, training and outstanding ability were quickly
recognized; and in a few short years he had become General
Manager of the Consolidated Copper Mines Corporation of
Kimberly, one of the largest mining companies in the West.
Many of the graduates of the Mackay School of Mines owe their
present successful careers to the advice and help extended
them by this noble and unselfish friend.
Let us pause to contemplate the simple and noble life just
passed; his career as a student and graduate of this Uni-
versity; his simple, dignified, intelligent and modest per-
formance of his duties as a member of this Board; his cour-
teous, manly and cooperative bearing towards his associates;
his enthusiastic and sustained interest in this University,
in its students, its faculty and its graduates, his appreci-
ation of the high mission of the University in the future,
endear him to every friend of the University. His manly
performance of the duties devolving upon him; his many un-
official virtues as well as his manly character and bearing
will ever be an inspiring recollection to all of us.
He was truly endowed with the qualities necessary for suc-
cess, integrity, training, ability, zeal and absolute devo-
tion to duty; but to these he added the crowning qualities
of a warm heart and an active, generous sympathy for every
good work. He thus inspired not only the highest respect
and confidence of the citizens of the State of Nevada but
also the ardent love of his friends. Nowhere were these
qualities more conspicuously shown than in his relations
with the University.
On behalf of the Administration, faculty, students and
alumnae of the University of Nevada, the Regents extend
deepest sympathy to his widow and daughters in their ir-
reparable loss of a loving husband and father.
The Board adjourned at 1:15 P.M. for luncheon at the University
Dining Hall and from there went to the Reno Army Air Base to
inspect boilers proposed for the Heating Plant.
The next meeting of the Board was set for October 29, unless a
special meeting is called by the Chairman.

Time honours the 'Chinese worker'
An American banker took the top prize, but just as eye-catching was the runner-up in Time magazine's 'Person of the Year' award - a faceless 'Chinese worker'.
For 2009 the American magazine yesterday named US Federal Reserve bank chairman Ben Bernanke. 'The recession was the story of the year,' Time managing editor Richard Stengel said. 'Without Ben Bernanke, it would have been a lot worse. Bernanke didn't just learn from history; he wrote it himself and was damned if he was going to repeat it.'
The magazine, however, picked the nameless 'Chinese worker' as the runner-up, together with big names such as United States politician Nancy Pelosi and Jamaican sprint champion Usain Bolt.
The magazine said it made the decision because it was the toil of the army of Chinese workers that pulled the world economy through thick and thin. 'In China they have a word for it, baoba, meaning 'protect eight' - the 8 per cent annual economic growth rate that officials believe is critical to ensuring social stability,' the magazine said.
'A year ago, many thought hitting such a figure in 2009 was a pipe dream. But China has done it, and this year it remains the world's fastest-growing major economy - and an economic stimulus for everyone else.
'Who deserves the credit? Above all, the tens of millions of workers who have left their homes, and often their families, to find work in the factories of China's booming coastal cities,' it said. 'Near [a Shenzhen] factory we found some of the people who are leading the world to economic recovery: Chinese men and women, their struggles in the past, their thoughts on the present and their eyes on the future.'
The only previous Chinese Person of the Year is former paramount leader Deng Xiaoping. Deng was named twice - in 1978 and 1985, for transforming China from a Stalinist state to a thriving economy. Under the open-door policy that he introduced, millions of rural people struggling to make a living rushed to coastal cities, where they worked in factories to create a leading global manufacturing power base.
US President Barack Obama, last year's winner, and Apple chief executive Steve Jobs were also on a shortlist revealed by Time on Monday.
Time senior writer Michael Grunwald said the main reason Bernanke was selected was because he was 'the most important player guiding the world's most important economy'.

I am unable to reconcile the stats as shown on my stats page. I always had a lot of likes and a half a dozen follows on my blog per day. But the number of views that day or overall could never be reconciled with the number of likes/follows as the number of views mentioned was always lesser.
Then I saw on Harshit Chauhan's blog these stats:
941 hits
1159 follow
How can the number of times a blog is viewed be less than number of follows? Unless a page is viewed and liked, logic says it won't be blindly followed. Out of the 100 views I may have 10 follows. How can it be other way around? Is there something I am missing?

Four men and a woman are facing felony grand theft charges after Orange County authorities allege they defrauded insurance companies of $600,000 by falsifying life insurance policies.
Reuben Banuelos, Edward Putnam and Maxine Putnam are each facing a felony count of grand theft, while Tyler Wilkinson and Ian Frisch are facing four felony counts, according to an Orange County District Attorney's Office statement.
Authorities allege that Wilkinson and Frisch submitted falsified insurance police applications on behalf of Banuelos, an Aliso Viejo resident, and the Putnams, who are San Juan Capistrano residents.
According to prosecutors, Wilkinson and Frisch offered Banuelos and the Putnams "free insurance" by having them "pay a first-time premium" and then get "reimbursed for the total amount paid for a full year of coverage."
Prosecutors allege that Banuelos and the Putnams didn't indicate in their applications that they were being reimbursed for the premium and letting the policies lapse after a year without making further payments. Meanwhile, authorities say, Wilkinson and Frisch collected commissions of $600,000 from the policies.
The five were arrested June 6 following an investigation by the California Department of Insurance. If convicted, Wilkinson and Frisch face up to 12 years in state prison, while Banuelos and the Putnams face up to five years in state prison, according to the D.A.'s office.

Early Residents for Most Part Were Fishermen; Today the Community Boasts Many Modern Industrial Plants
This village, now known as Inwood, was first settled about 1817.
The early settlers were for the most part fishermen and they called the community North West Point taking that name from its geographical position in relation to Far Rockaway of which it was then a part. The Turnpike road bounds it on the east side; the Long Island Railroad tracks and the Village of Lawrence bound it on the south and Jamaica Bay bounds it on the north and most of the west side, the remaining westerly portion adjoining Far Rockaway.
"The North West pointers", as the early settlers were called, were men who worked on, owned or operated fishing boats on Jamaica Bay, which comes to a head at that part and has numerous docks and minor harbors.
Inwood is the center of many interesting legends and stories and it is in Inwood that the earliest meeting of Rockaway Indians and white men too place. It is reported that in 1642 a conference was held in "the woods near Rockaway (a corruption of the word "Reckouwacky" the latter being the name chosen by a tribe of the Carnarsee Indians when they established themselves at Rockaway, Reckouwacky meaning the place of our own people) between Dutch envoys, headed by one De Vries and sixteen sachems, representing Indian tribes, who complained of wrong doings of the Dutch. It is to be explained that the Carnarsee tribe was part of the Mohegan tribe of the great Mohawk nation. This tribe inhabited the whole of Long Island, and sold it to the Dutch in 1640.
At the 1642 meeting addresses of simple pathos were made and the Indians emphasized the wrongs complained of by laying down a twig for each complaint. Apparently the Indians were not satisfied and reprisals were made during the winter, but in the spring they relented as they desired to plant their corn with the paleface people.
As the years passed, life between the settlers and the Indians became more peaceful and the number of white settlers at Hemsteede (Hempstead) which means "homestead", Jamaica and Flushing greatly increased.
The North West Pointers were a more or less lawless lot and although they were not numerous they were periodically troublesome to other Rockaway residents. Many incidents in which rough horse play and harsh physical conduct were the main features are traceable to these hard North West Pointers.
About 1865 the section became generally known as Westville and participated in the rapid growth of the peninsula which occurred with the opening of the railroad in 1868. At that time there were only four streets in Inwood, "Mott Street" which ran from Jamaica Turnpike to John Mott's farm (now the site of the Inwood Country Club golf course); the road leading to Jesse Craft's who had opened the first general store in Inwood about 1835; (Mr. Craft was the great grandfather of Nassau County Sheriff Jesse P. Combs) and now called Bayview Avenue; Solomon Avenue, which leads into the road leading to Jesse Craft's and Lord Avenue.
The great grandson and great great granddaughter of Jesse Craft, who opened the first general store in Inwood in 1835, stand on the site of the market located on the northeast corner of Craft Street and Bayview Avenue, and look over the Journal entries in the day book of the store with Robley F. DeMott, vice president of the Peninsula National Bank, Nassau County Sheriff Jesse Combs holds the ledger with Mr. DeMott, and in the center is Carol Combs.
no picture available
Jesse Craft, who was born in 1800 and died at the age of 88 years operated the store in the midst of farmland where the Craft family grew vegtables, raised beef, pork , ducks and chickens.
It is interesting to note the names of some of the old families in Inwood who were customers at Mr. Crat's store and whose descendants still reside in the vicinity of Inwood. The old ledger in Mr. Combs' possession shows that some of the people who patronized his great grandfather's store included Richard Smith, great grandfather of J. Russel Sprague of Lawrence, former Nassau County Executive and Dr. Newman E. Sprague of Atlantic Beach; and Isaac Wanser, great grandfather of Robley DeMott. Others included the Abrams, the Motts, Rhineharts, Nortons, Lawrences, Cornells, Whites, Baldwins, Seamans, Johnsons, Skelly, Murphys, Smiths, Hewletts, Doughtys, Hicks, Watts, Thompsons, Hendersons, McNeills, Bowkers, Frost, Carmins, Jones, Coles, Ryders and Whippies.
Bartering was a common practice in those days. One entry shows where a man gave chickens in exchange for $3.12 in merchandise. Some of the items which could be purchased and their prices include a half bushel of apples for twenty-six cents; three pounds 7 ounces of pork, twenty-one cents; seven pounds of rye flour for twenty cents; a horse wagon for $9.40; fifty eggs for fifty cents; two pairs of shoes for a dollar; four pounds of candies for fifty-four cents; and a half dozen cups and saucers for forty-six cents.
Lewis Craft, the son of Jesse Craft, had four daughters, Della Murray and Evelyn Smith both deceased; Amy Abrams, now in her 90th year and Lillian Combs, mother of the Sheriff, now in her 92nd year.
In 1888, the community with a population of 1,000 sought to have their own post office. However, there was another Westville in New York State, and so a public meeting was called and the name Inwood was chosen.
The post office which had served the area from Woodmere to Rockaway Beach, still stands at the corner of Broadway and Rockaway Turnpike, Lawrence. Now owned and occupied by Frank J. Dillon as a private home, the building also served as a hotel and general store. The postmaster was James Jennings.
The first postmaster of the newly established Inwood post office opened February 25, 1889, was Mr. J. B. Crosby, who held that position throught World War I.
The community spirit of Inwood has always prevailed. Any business or social function which Inwood residents take up as a body is assured of success and undivided support.
The second store to be opened in Inwood was started by Freeman Sprague about 1861. Pliny Doughty bought it from him and later it was acquired by Peter Davenport. The late S. Doughty Abrams also had an interest in it. The Davenport store was located at the corner of Doughty Blvd. and Bayview Avenue which to this day is called Davenport Corners by old timers.
Oyster planting was the greatest industry in Inwood until Jamaica Bay became polluted and was condemned about 1920. In an interview in 1947, the late S. Doughty Abrams, who was then 92, recalled "Jamaica Bay was one of the greatest bodies of water ever. And the oysters we grew were tops in size and flavor. When they went to market, other parties had to sit back and wait until they were all sold."
Mr. Abrams and his cousin, Jarvis Hicks, as boys, went out for oysters, and on one tide could pick up a thousand. This catch would sell for three dollars.
Later on Mr. Abrams went into the business of planting the oysters. In the 1957 interview Mr. Abrams recalled, "I would go to Connecticut to buy the seed, fetch it to Jamaica Bay, plant it and grow it to market size. Then truckmen would pick up the oysters and cart them to the market on West 10th Street in New York City." Mr. Abrams had four different oyster beds covering a total of 12 acres.
The first Inwood Fire Department was established about 1882 and was know as the Electric Hook and Ladder Company of Westville. Some years later the Citizens Hose Company was organized and these two companies later merged and formed the Inwood Fire Department, which owns its own firehouse building and has always prided itself with keeping up with the times in having the most modern equipment. The department also owns its own ambulance which is available in any emergency. The original building, also located on Doughty Blvd., is now known as Printer's Hall. Present headquarters of the fire department were built in 1921.
Inwood has two public schools, Public School 2 on Donahue Ave. and 4 on Wanser Avenue and a parochial school, Our Lady of Good Counsel on Henry Street.
The first public school to serve the entire local area including Far Rockaway, stood at Frost Lane and Broadway in Lawrence.
In 1893, a frame school house was built on Central Avenue in Lawrence, on the site of the present Public School 1. At that time there was a branch school with one teacher in the Combs building in Inwood, and this was known as Public School 2. That building was used until 1920 when the present Public School 2 was opened. Public School 4 was opened in 1910 and an addition was made in 1927. Just recently the handsome new gymnasium and auditorium at Public School 2 was dedicated. Theodore J. Ciamillo is principal of P. S. 2 and Edward Andrews is principal P.S. 4.

text: Company fined $81K for violations at Alderson-Broaddus By The Associated Press August 16, 2012 Story Share PHILIPPI, W.Va. -- Federal officials said Thursday they intend to fine Sodexho Inc. $81,000 for health and safety violations that occurred when workers were removing asbestos earlier this year at Alderson-Broaddus College in Philippi.The Occupational Safety and Health Administration said the violations were found during a March inspection, and 12 were labeled serious. That means the employer knew or should have known the violation created the "substantial probability'' of death or serious physical harm.The violations included: failing to provide respirators, protective clothing and training for employees; failing to inform workers of the location and quantities of material containing asbestos; and failing to provide workers with information on how to voluntarily use dust masks and respirators.Sodexho, based in Gaithersburg, Md., employs about 25 groundskeepers, housekeepers and security workers at Alderson-Broaddus College. It can either comply with or contest the citations. The company didn't immediately return telephone and email messages.Additional violations included failure to: ensure a competent person supervised the work; monitor daily employee exposure; properly dispose of ceiling tiles; and equip vacuum cleaners with HEPA filters."Asbestos work poses serious safety and health risks to workers, including lung disease and other disorders,'' said Prentice Cline, director of OSHA's Charleston Area Office. "Sodexho must immediately correct these violations to ensure that its employees have a safe and healthful work environment.''Sodexho was also cited for failing to record accurate information in 300 illness and injury logs.Alderson-Broaddus College is affiliated with the American Baptist Churches USA, and the West Virginia Baptist Convention. Enrollment is surging this fall as the school adds 10 sports over two years. The new 400-member freshman class includes about 120 football players.

Obama's FISA problem hits Florida
UPDATE: Obama voted for the bill today. Sen. Hillary Clinton voted against it, and Sen. John McCain was not present (though he supports FISA).
Sen. Barack Obama's Web site is a marvel in interactivity. Each day hundreds of supporters discuss the issues and rave about their leader.
But the freewheeling forum has had an unlikely downside -- spawning a virtual mutiny over Obama's newfound support for the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, a reversal reflecting his shift to the center.
Thousands of people on mybarackobama.com have lashed out at the Illinois Democrat accusing him of "caving in" and urging him to reconsider a vote to reauthorize the wiretap law. Naturally, some of the critics are Floridians.
"It is obvious that we will have some differences, and we will support you as our next president but this is too important. Don't go down this road," Ebonie Reid of Port St. Lucie wrote in one of the tamer responses.
So intense grew the criticism that Obama posted a message on July 4.
"This was not an easy call for me," he wrote, explaining that he felt the bill, being debated today, was far from perfect but a good compromise.
"... I'm certainly not perfect and expect to be held accountable too," Obama said. "I cannot promise to agree with you on every issue. But I do promise to listen to your concerns, take them seriously and seek to earn your ongoing support to change the country."
Of course there are plenty of people who take his side. Wrote one person on July 3: "I don't think he's doing what's politically expedient. If he were, he would drop the FISA business to please his liberal supporters who are threatning to leave him. I really believe he thinks this is the best course for now. Right or wrong, this is his gut choice. I'm standing by him."

SOUTH FLORIDA - The bridges of South Florida carry tens of thousands of motorists a day -- to home, to work, to play. But the wind and waves that make this paradise are constantly eating away at these aging structures, leaving drivers to ride on cracked concrete and corroded steel.
"What takes the most toll on our bridges is the salt water," said Florida Dept. of Transportation Structural Maintenance Engineer John Danielsen. "Most of our bridges out west will last 75 years, east 50 years."
SPECIAL SECTION: Bridges on the Brink
We went underwater to see for ourselves the condition of some of the most heavily traveled bridges in South Florida and what we found down there is concerning. Concrete that has been ruptured by the expansion of rusting rebar inside.
There are 1,409 bridges in Miami Dade, Broward and Monroe counties.
Records obtained by Local 10 investigates show more than a third of them, 534 bridges, are 50 years or older.
Of those, 333 are considered "Functionally Obsolete." That means one or more components of the structure don't meet current design standards.
Thirty six are classified as "Structurally Deficient," a term used to describe a bridge that needs repairs or replacement within the next 6 years.
"It does not mean the bridge is going to collapse," said FDOT Structural Maintenance Engineer Dennis Fernandez. It doesn't mean the bridge is unsafe. It's only a warning that you need to do some repairs to that bridge."
The Florida Department of Transportation is the state agency in charge of inspecting South Florida's bridges.
It's a comprehensive process -- examining all aspects of a span -- the decking, the columns, the foundation that supports the entire structure.
Each bridge is inspected at least once every two years -- even more frequently if trouble spots are discovered.
We followed inspection crews underwater and in the air as they searched for cracked concrete and corroded steel. But despite their best efforts to keep our bridges in tip top shape, the environment eventually takes its toll.
"Once the choloride gets into the concrete, you can't get it out," Danielsen said. "The rebar starts rusting. When the rebar starts rusting, it expands and it spalls the concrete."
This week, we're going to show you the worst of the worst -- the most heavily traveled bridges in South Florida labeled structurally deficient by the state. In some cases, you might ask 'Why is this bridge still open?'"
"If we find or feel that a bridge is unsafe, we notify the owner and if the owner doesn't take any action, we will," Fernandez said.
We'll also show you the plan to fix these battered bridges. You'll be surprised to learn how much tax money it takes to keep South Florida drivers safe as they travel on these bridges on the brink.

Anjelica Huston pranked Raul Julia following eyeball incident
Anjelica Huston found herself face to face with her The Addams Family co-star's "dangling eyeball".
Anjelica Huston turned actor Raul Julia's frightening medical issue into a laughing matter after her The Addams Family co-star's eyeball suddenly fell out of his head.
The Puerto Rican star and veteran actress played iconic husband-and-wife team of Gomez and Morticia Addams in two feature films in the 1990s, but one unexpected incident in Los Angeles was a story Anjelica will never forget.
"Raul had a funny thing happen to him," she told U.S. chat show The Talk. "He was sitting in a bar late one night with, I believe the musician Robert Palmer, after work. He rubbed his eye (above the eyebrow) and his eyeball fell out. I'm telling you. I think he had a thyroid condition or something. His actual eyeball."
Anjelica added that Raul was able to go to set the next day despite his shocking injury, saying the eye was "so red and bloodshot, you couldn't believe it."
But Anjelica decided to keep morale high on set by pulling a prank on her beloved co-star, and recalled, "As soon as I got back to my trailer, I called up the nearest joke shop on Hollywood Boulevard and said, "Do you have those fake dangling eyeballs?' I bought out the shop. So the next day, everyone on set had these fake eyeballs coming out of their head."
Raul passed away in 1994 due to complications from a stroke.

Ratings for Dr. Wiaam M. Falouji
I waited almost 3 hours to see Dr. Falouji. I was graceful even though I got a little ancy near the end. When she finally came in the room to see me she RAN in talking so fast I did not even know what she was saying. And after such a long wait, within seconds of being in the room with me a phone went off and she said excuse me and went out and answered her cell phone. When she came back she asked me questions about my situation and in the middle of my answer she would start talking over me and ask more questions and then more and I couldn't explain fully what happened and everything I needed to tell her. She sent me to have an MRI and so on. So much more to the story but I dont even feel like wasting my time. Would not recommend. I have met with other doctors who seemed to have a much better understanding of my situation.
Dr. Wiaam Falouji is the best doctor I have ever known! She has helped me so much, and has cured my Bell's Palsy! I feel such a relief that now my face is no longer droopy and loose! Not only has she helped with paralysis, but she also did it in such a well organized and thoughtful manner. She made sure to know all of my symptoms I've been having, and she told me all the ways I could help myself in the process. She was so very kind to me at my appointments, and she was so generous in spending her time with me even when her shift was over! Dr. Wiaam Falouji is truly a great doctor!
Wonderful, caring doctor. Wish she could cover all my healthcare needs. Staff, especially Mary Ann, is great and just as caring (although not too thrilled w/new Vanderbilt staff.) She's actually called me at home (Dr. F.) to see how I was doing with a non-neurological condition that was hard to diagnose and treat. I've been consistently blown away by how good she is. All I can figure re: the bad reviews is they just didn't click with her personality. I have a friend who saw her and didn't like her, either but...my friend's personality is kinda stubborn and mule-ish so maybe that personality doesn't work? I don't know. I think Dr. Falouji does well with smart, well-informed patients who are willing to try different things to help themselves and not just be passive weenies. :) Maybe that's it? I don't know. Just know I love her and am glad to have found her. I switched from a doc in Nashville I really liked to go to her, so that's saying a lot. I'd drive an hour if I had to - two probably - to keep being her patient.
I was very impressed with the doctors knowledge as well as her kindness.
Dr. Falouji is the best neurologist I have ever seen, and I have had four or five over my lifetime of migraine care. She's smart, efficient, spends as much time with you as you need, NEVER makes you feel rushed, is caring - but yes, if she feels you need to be given a "talking to" as we say in the South she'll certainly give you one in no uncertain terms, but that's 'cause she cares so much about her patients. If you can't take that kind of honesty, she's not the doc for you, as other comments have demonstrated. They should go see someone who will hold their hand and hug them when the appt. is over. Yuck. I'd rather have the smartest neuro in Middle TN - probably the whole state.
Dr. Falouji has a horrible bedside manner. Very rude, cold and unkind. When she asked if there were any questions and my mother DID ask her questions, she refused to answer and said she didn't want to answer the question that was being asked! My poor parents walked away disgusted to the point of wanting to walk out mid-appointment. If you want to care for people, then treat them w/ care - not ugliness!
she refused to give advice or see my son for new seizure activity and she has been his neuro for 2 years.very rude.terrible bedside manner.when she did see him ,she never talked to him or never ran ANY tests on him.
Dr. Falouji is someone who does not try to put rose colored glasses on what she thinks about your condition or what you should do or not do. I like her so much that I wish she could be my primary care giver.

WATCH: Daniel Radcliffe Goes For A New Level Of Creepy In The Latest Trailer For 'Horns'
the Daniel Radcliffe I just watched in What If.Well, this is a far cry from
We've seen bits and pieces of Horns from clips and teasers, but this is the first official trailer, and holy shit, it is scary. Daniel is creepier than I've ever seen him, there are quick cuts, there are parts where his faces becomes the devil's face–honestly, I don't know if I'll be able to watch this movie.
I get scared easily. Maybe I'll give it a try for Daniel.
His American accent is a bit wonky, but passable overall. And I quite like all the bits with the snakes. It's very Harry Potter of him. Sorry Dan! I know you're trying to leave Harry Potter behind! But I've still got Neville Longbottom on my mind!
Check out the trailer above and tell us what you think of it in the comments below. Scary? Silly? Meh? We need your responses! Also, who is going to come see it with me? Can I hold your hand if I get scared?

FTSE Slips on Employment Data
The U.K. FTSE 100 traded 0.2% higher at 5225.97, paring gains somewhat after the release of U.K. unemployment data.
Data showed that the number of people claiming jobless benefits fell more than expected in May, but overall employment continued to rise in the three months to April.
Stand-out stocks on the index include Cairn Energy, up 1.8% after the company said it received formal approval for the first two wells of its exploration program offshore Western Greenland. On the downside, however, Lonmin is down 1.2% and Fresnillo 0.9% after J.P. Morgan downgraded the stocks to underweight from neutral.
The pound ticked higher after the employment data were released, taking solace from the drop in jobless claims. The pound, which dipped to the day's low of $1.4753 just before the data, is now trading at $1.4775.

D. Johnson tries an Odyssey Versa
By Jonathan Wall, PGATOUR.COM Equipment Insider
Dustin Johnson has put new woods, irons and wedges in the bag over the years, but through all the changes there has been one club that has managed to weather the equipment storm: a Titleist Scotty Cameron Newport 2 prototype putter.
Over the last few seasons, Johnson has worked with a number of putters, including a TaylorMade prototype Ghost Itsy Bitsy Spider, Ghost prototype, and an all-black, prototype Scotty Cameron for Titleist Newport known as a "Jetsetter". But he's always gone back to the Newport 2 prototype putter at some point.
On Wednesday at the Northern Trust Open, Golf Channel cameras caught Johnson on the practice putting green working with another new putter — an Odyssey Versa No. 7 WBW (white/black/white).
Johnson not only spent time working with the putter early in the week, he ended up putting it in play on Thursday. Hoping to get his putting on track, Johnson struggled mightily on Riviera's greens, finishing the day at 5 over.
The putter switch wasn't the only equipment change Johnson made this week. On Monday, the seven-time PGA TOUR winner shelved his RocketBladez Tour irons for his old set of TaylorMade Tour Preferred Forged MBs.

Letter: Outer harbor should not simply benefit developers
Outer harbor should not simply benefit developers
Thanks to Jay Burney for putting into words the fears and feelings of so many Western New York residents. His Aug. 17 Viewpoints piece sums up the misleading information touted by the Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp. in its recent community meetings. Politicians and development institutions are not to be trusted with a resource as valuable as the outer harbor.
Housing and commercial development have no place in an area that should be preserved for the benefit of the local population rather than those developers who can influence our elected officials to further enhance their bottom lines. I wonder how those attending the meetings would have reacted to the proposal of the 21st Century Park if it had been offered as an alternative.
One only has to look at the many major decisions regarding development in Western New York made over the last 50 odd years to know that the majority have resulted in benefits for developers and construction companies and long-term regret for the area as a whole.
There is no stopping the political and industrial machine that continues to generate profit for a few and long-term burden and debt for residents, local governments and nation. The outer harbor needs to be guarded against commercial development and careless expenditure of taxpayer dollars, such as an elaborate "fishing pier" that terminates in six feet of water at a cost of over $2 million.
Development should be centered on recreational activities that can benefit from the fact that this is waterfront property, not shovel-ready acreage ready to be exploited for profit.

This recipe could not be any easier. I saw it on Pinterest initially, but it comes from Paula Deen originally, I understand. Honestly, I've never made flourless cookies like these before, and I'm amazed how they can taste like normal cookies without flour. But they do, and these cookies has a great peanut buttery flavor. The next time I make them, I may reduce the baking time a bit because I like a softer cookie, but other than that, I wouldn't change a thing.
1 egg
1 cup sugar
1 cup peanut butter, creamy or crunchy
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a large baking sheet. In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, 1 cup sugar, the egg, and vanilla, and stir well with a spoon. Roll the dough into balls the size of walnuts. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet. With a fork, dipped in sugar to prevent sticking, press a crisscross design on each cookie. Bake for 12 minutes, remove from the oven, and if desired, sprinkle with a little extra sugar. Cool slightly before removing from pan.

HP OpenVMS Systemsask the wizard
The Question is:
Where and how do I list the pwd.h file Ineed to map the pwd.h to validate users for a specific routine
The Answer is :
Use the $acm system service, or -- better -- use standard OpenVMS system security attributes including security identifiers or such. Verifying a password directly can introduce security problems, permitting security attacks and (if not implmenetned entirely correctly) bypassing standard security defenses including auditing and evasion. The OpenVMS Wizard would recommend review of the security manual, and would generally avoid directly verifying the password within an application.

Steve, I know better than to unbalance good bullets by putting an uneven groove around them. There's no way that crimp will create the same groove depth and shape all the way around. Therefore, the bullet's center of mass has shifted. That will unbalance them more than they already are. They'll jump further off the muzzle axis when they exit; and they all won't jump off axis in the same direction. To say nothing of the inconsistant and heavier release force it creates that increases muzzle velocity spread as well as making the pressure curve different for each shot.
Ever measured the release force amount and spread for crimped bullets to uncrimped ones? I have. That alone should convince folks not to crimp their bullets in place.

Hopefully the name and, most importantly, the talents of Hollywood Floss is familiar to you. If not, you should definitely take a minute to check dude out. Luckily for you he stays dropping material and today he returns with something new for our listening enjoyment.
The track is called "Always Grind" and finds Mr. Floss linking up with Ro Ransom for something rather infectious and tough. Driven by this menacing, smooth melody which is paired with some dope. snappy drums, "Always Grind" finds the fellas bringing the best of their abilities to the track. This shit is too damn dope, check out the track after the jump and speak on it down below.

1,000-Foot-Tall Wind Turbine To Be Erected
April 1st, 2013 by Nicholas Brown
An enormous wind turbine, dubbed the "Riesenmühle," is to be erected in Hamburg, Germany. It is 1,000 feet tall, and the blades span 600 feet. The German name literally translates to "giant mill," which suits it perfectly.
The wind turbine has an electricity generation capacity of 40 MW, which means that it has a very high power-to-height ratio, and can power a whopping 13,333 homes by itself, at peak power production.
It costs $48 million to manufacture. This translates to a reasonable cost of $1.20 per watt of generation capacity.
In the past, we have discussed the importance of height to the performance of wind turbines, due to the fact that wind speeds increase significantly with altitude.
This is why simply increasing the height of a wind turbine will increase its power production considerably. Although, as is the case with everything, this costs money.
Due to the unusual size of this turbine, a new crane had to be built to install it, and even the nacelle (which you probably know as the head) had to be built on site.
Also, due to its size, the maintenance personnel live inside the turbine's tower. Why pay them to travel to the turbine site when they can just live in it?
The maintenance personnel living inside even have TVs and internet connections!
Like all other developments, it has its opponents. One of them said: "Oh my God!. What's the world coming to? Giant spinning skyscrapers?"
Another local, named Betty, said: "This is going to block my view. I won't have it!"
Yes, this story is a fun fake for April Fools' Day.

"If you want something impressive and addictive to take to a bake sale, holiday event, or any kind of social gathering, this cookie is it. Seriously the best thing I've baked in a long time. Taste better than store-bought little debbie cream pies, and leave you wanting more and more and more! Creamy peanut butter and chewy oats together in a cookie sandwich filled with sweet marshmallow creme with a touch salt makes it really stand out in a crowd. I got the recipe from Better Homes and Gardens 100 Best Cookies magazine, and made them for the Holiday Cookie Swap 2011."
