Bloomberg School and PAHO Partnership
Online Epidemiology Certificate Program is Five Years Old
Bloomberg School assistant professor, Ana Navas-Acien, thought it seemed odd when a good student in her Spanish language, internet-based epidemiology class two years ago missed an assignment without explanation. The student was doing well in class and was conscientious about completing her work.
Navas-Acien, MD, PhD '05, MPH, soon learned why Marta Dantas didn't meet her deadline. An environmental health specialist with Brazil's Ministry of Health, Dantas had been dispatched to Paraguay to do an environmental risk assessment at the site of a mall fire that had killed more than 320 people.
"She emailed me, 'I'm really sorry, I was sent to Paraguay,'" Navas-Acien recalls, noting that Dantas eventually caught up with the class, which is part of the curriculum for the School's Internet-based Certificate Program in Epidemiology. The five-year-old program, developed by the Bloomberg School and the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), is not targeted to the typical public health student.
Taught mostly online in Spanish by Bloomberg School faculty, the year-long program is designed to give mid-level public health professionals in Latin American countries a refresher course in epidemiology with an emphasis on practical applications of the discipline. The program has awarded certificates to 103 students.
"This is what the students need," says Navas-Acien, an instructor with the program for four years. "They're in a mid-career situation, they need to review their theory, they need to update their methods and knowledge, but they really want the classes to be very useful and practical for everyday activities.
Some students bring in challenges from their work, such as how to deal with a rabies outbreak or the health problems associated with a flood.
"I learn a lot from them," Navas-Acien says of her students. "They're at the frontlines of public health, really working in the field."
The course had its beginnings in 1999 when Carlos Castillo-Salgado, a special advisor with PAHO, approached the Bloomberg School and proposed a partnership to develop a continuing education epidemiology course in Spanish. An adjunct associate professor in epidemiology at the School, he knew many public health professionals from Latin America who wanted to take advanced epidemiological training at top-level schools but weren't able to leave their jobs for an extended period of time.
He also knew that these public health managers could benefit from a course that included teamwork? something that is generally not emphasized in public health training in Latin America ?and addressed situations that they students encountered in their professional lives.
"All the exercises and assignments are based on real data and on situations that the participants can relate to," says Castillo-Salgado, MD, DrPH, '88, MPH '81, JD.
James Yager, PhD, senior associate dean for academic affairs at the Bloomberg School, and Edyth Schoenrich, MD, associate chair of the MPH program, supported the program early on. Epidemiology chair Jonathan Samet, MD, MS, who speaks Spanish, and Robert Lawrence, MD, the former associate dean for Professional Practice and Programs, were key figures in getting the certificate program off the ground in 2001.
Students must complete Lawrence's one-week public health problem-solving course, which takes place in Brazil, and two online epidemiology courses based on recorded lectures by Samet and Castillo-Salgado, the primary instructors in the certificate program. Navas-Acien, with the help of teaching assistants, some of whom are from PAHO, does most of the teaching for the first epidemiology course, including live talks, answering emails and working with students who are having problems.
Each cohort typically includes physicians, nurses and managers of public health programs, with many of the students coming from Brazil. After Jarbas Barbosa da Silva, Jr., MD, MPH, PhD, a top official in Brazil's Ministry of Health, took the program in its first year, he wanted all the epidemiologists in the agency and its regional offices to take the course as well.
Central to the program is a year-long project that requires students to work in groups to assess a public health issue specific to a country or region, and develop a strategy to address the problem. At the program's conclusion in Brazil, the groups present their plans to Bloomberg School faculty and Ministry of Health officials before receiving their certificates.
"These are not theoretical courses," says Helen Walters, director of continuing professional education at the Bloomberg School. "The students in the program are working on problems they deal with every day and getting more tools to work on them."
The agreement between PAHO and the Bloomberg School ends with the current cohort, which will complete the course in March 2007. PAHO has expressed interest in continuing the collaboration, and Brazil's Ministry of Health, which financially supported the online program's last three cohorts, has indicated its intention to fund two more cohorts.

Up-to-date style in an old suburb
Whether you're in an old inner city suburb or a historic regional town, there's a chance you'll have a council who is not keen on throwing something modern into the mix.
That was what confronted Simone Robeson when she was given the brief for Subiaco House in Perth, an inner-city retreat for a couple who travel often and plan to stay put in this leafy suburb for a good while.
"City of Subiaco, at the time, had a number of conservative councillors who were of the thought that new homes should be designed to look like old ones," said Simone.
"It was even suggested to use materials that were made to look like other materials, such as fake timber - every architect's worse nightmare!"
For the street elevation, they had to ensure the roof pitch and wall plate heights exactly matched that of the neighbours, and the window widths also had to replicate the form of the neighbouring ones.
"Within such restrictive parameters, we tried to avoid the home becoming a modern replica of an older home built for a different time," said Simone.
Through the use of timber, steel and CFC cladding, she sought to keep the home contemporary, but more importantly, low maintenance for the owners.
With three split ground-floor levels falling with the contours of the site, this courtyard home centres around pulling in the northern light and capturing views of the stunning nearby trees.
Both space and budget was weighted toward those spaces the owners plan to use most - the living areas and their master bedroom suite.
The living room has soaring pitched ceilings which open to the northern courtyard.
This courtyard has retractable shading, allowing the owner to passively control the suns penetration throughout the year.
The passage between the living area and the master bedrooms acts as a tiny library, with floor to ceiling shelving surrounding a deep window seat.
With windows out to the courtyard, this is perfect nook to cosy up in with a book.
There is an aesthetic cohesion throughout the house that Simone attributes to the use of a simple palette.
"We don't like using too many different materials in a project; we find fewer materials calming and more practical," she said. "And it means we can order larger amounts of the material which is more cost effective."
The Carrera marble was sourced from off-cuts and was used for all bathroom benchtops.
Likewise the 'kabuki' granite benchtops in the kitchen and laundry were cut out of the same slab.
A 'salt and pepper' polished concrete floor runs through the home, including bedrooms, with travertine stone paving to external areas.
This same travertine was cut down to smaller sizes, and used as an internal un-grouted cladding to the fireplace.
Accents of American Black Walnut veneers to the cabinetry add warmth against the concrete flooring.
Sustainability gets a tick as well, with the exposed concrete floor slab an effective way to achieve passive heating during winter - the north facing glass in the living room enables the slab to store the heat during the day, to then release it at night time. Louvred windows at the other end of the home capture those south-westerlies cooling the home in the summer afternoons.

This program piggybacked itself into my computer system. I subscribe to Carbonite and when I got a backup prompt I hit it. Then this speedybackup page immediately popped up, describing itself as a Microsoft partner. I immediately closed it.It does not show up in the list of all programs. When I got an email from a customerservice rep,I emailed back the request that speedybackup remove all its software from my computer. They kept sending emails that became more threatening -- the wording I think was "wouldn't it be terrible" if my system crashed and I didn't have backups. I emailed that this was a threat and I damn well better not have a system crash. On March 28, 2014, two days before the trial period expired I had a complete and total system crash, when I was out of the house. Everything is gone. In 25 years of computer usage I've never had anything to compare with it. When I do system restore, the computer shows it restoring but I am unable to get Windows functions and the screen goes back to the manufacturer's desktop page. Carbonite restoration does not work. Even though my "trial period" is over I still get messages that Speedybackup has a number of files backed up and when I hit any command button I am taken to a page where I have to subscribe to speedypal before anything else can happen. Obviously they're holding my information hostage. There is a frequent message about recycling bin corruption and nothing repairs it. I have not access to the email messages. The computer itself seems to be damaged.My Carbonite is useless.If I go ahead and pay the money there's no guarantee that I will get my data back and that the damage could be repaired.

Kenya is a land of incredible diversity, it's rife with topographical diversity with glaciers in the equator, dense forests, endless Savannah and bush country, lakes that stretches as far as the eye can see, deserts, mountains and miles of beautiful beaches – this is the original safari country and there is nothing like it anywhere else.
We reached out to Robert Michael Poole– A travel expert, to get some of his best tips for traveling through this eclectic East African country.
Who is Robert Michael Poole?
I'm a photojournalist and digital nomad turned Instagram influencer (@robertmichaelpoole). I previously worked for CNN, Wall Street Journal, Newsweek and BBC, but these days I focus on photography and do Instagram takeovers for National Tourism Boards, airlines and resorts. I grew up in the UK but from age 19 have lived in various parts of the world, Russia, Japan, Finland and Sweden. I like finding interesting cultures in every corner of the world and just reached my 121st country.
What is your must-try food or beverage while in Kenya? And why
I'm always a fan of breakfast, which is quite different in Kenya. They use a very sweet masala tea as a wake up call, like English Breakfast tea but with a little spice like cinnamon. It's made in a massive pot with a huge whisk, and is quite a thing to see as one assigned person makes the froth and strains it out. This is served with mandazi, which is the fried bread dough with cinnamon sugar. The bread here is extremely sweet.
You can also get chips mayai, a breakfast omelet. It's eggs from a long leg chicken, half the size of western chickens, very tasty, the yolks are much bigger that have less white than a normal egg. It is cooked with chips in a jiko which is a small BBQ that local people use to cook.
In your opinion, what's an important "do this" or "don't do that" when it comes to traveling in Kenya?
A must do is a hot-air balloon ride in the Maasai Mara. You need to get up early but it gives you a whole new perspective and appreciation of the landscape. From the ground level you can try to track various animals, but from above you get to see the space in which they roam. Plus I love the floating sensation.
As for don'ts… I would just say, don't expect to see a lot on limited time. Patience is key, so it's a destination to spend a few weeks in, not a few days. And don't get frustrated if you don't see what you hope to see right away, the element of surprise and the unexpected is what safaris are about, you never know what you will see, so don't come with a precise expectation.
Robert, what was one of the biggest challenges you, as a photographer, encountered while shooting in Kenya?
The biggest challenge undoubtedly is getting around. I hadn't realized before coming that it's a case of taking flights on small planes to reach most destinations, it's very hard to get around on land. And flights are expensive, it seems tourism in general is set up principally for guests with a significant budget because the only way to see the wilderness is with a proper vehicle, guides, and with food brought in. It makes sense, but it presents a challenge, and I was just lucky to be able to work with many lodges and the tourism board.
You saw the Big 5 on your first Kenyan safari, so we are curious what is your best tip for someone going on their first African safari?
Patience. Nature is unpredictable, that's the beauty of it, so while you may come hoping to see one thing, it's for sure you will see a whole lot else too, so enjoy the whole experience, don't focus too much on pre-determined goals.
And finally, you spent time on a safari and on the beach, what is your best travel moment while in Kenya?
For sure it was being able to touch a wild rhino out near the Maasai Mara. Highly endangered, our guide was able to locate two who had armed guards with them 24 hours a day. The female was aggressive so we couldn't go close, but the male was relaxed and didn't mind us approaching. His skin is so tough you can only imagine how much he must weigh and I'm sure he couldn't even notice when you touch him. It was also an important reminder of the human impact on earth, and sad to reflect that such an awesome creature is in such great danger. It was a real privilege.
Karen Blixen said "there is something about a safari life that makes you forget all your sorrows and feel as if you had drunk half a bottle of champagne – bubbling over with heartfelt gratitude for being alive."

TWT's Curl Peaces Out
We hear that Joseph Curl, senior White House correspondent at The Washington Times and author of the paper's "Political Theater" column, resigned this morning, effective immediately. No word on where Curl's headed. He's probably sleeping in, but we'll track him down and get some deets.
Curl's last interview with W in January 2009.

They were scheduled to arrive around late evening, but somehow, their bus from Toronto got delayed, so they didn't show up until a little before midnight. I originally was scheduled to meet them in the bus stop downtown, but before that, the Axe Murderer already told me that they would find their own way to my house so that would not be necessary at all. That turned out to be a good thing, since I had that stupid food poisoning, so I wasn't feeling all too well. Anyway, any more references to that stupid food poisoning will be refrained from in this post.
So, they got in late at night, and after some pleasantries, gift exchanges, and other niceties, the wine slumber party started. Haha, this was fun. I have a rather minimalist apartment, since I don't have a guest room, no extra bed, since after all, I won't be staying here in Buffalo for long. So why would I invest in making my apartment pretty? Anyway, so I told them that beforehand, so they brought sleeping bags and blankets. It was like camping in my bedroom. Camping, accompanied with two bottles of cabernet sauvignon. One was rather spicy, from Mendoza, Argentina. The other was rather sweet, from California. After two bottles and a ton of conversation, we fell asleep at around 3:00 AM.
Waking up the next day brought headaches. But hey, it was all fun. We showered, and then went to breakfast at Amy's Place, which is this very hippie and interesting diner that is just a couple of minutes away from my apartment. The place is always full, and the staff looks interesting as well. Depending on the time of the day, they're either sizzling hot guys or scary-looking lesbians(?) who would take your order and bring your food.
Anyway, for the Ice Princess, this is her first visit to America, and it basically was a big deal. I got reminded of early immigrants to the USA from Eastern Europe. The Ice Princess, being from Romania, was very funny. We saw the power cords that the traffic lights hung from, and she took a picture of it. It made me realize that there are plenty of things that I just took for granted here.
After breakfast, it was already a little before noon. There was a little need to go to the convenience store, so we headed to one, and then we went to North Campus because we had tickets to see Rent. Rent was being produced by the Department of Theatre and Dance, and the show was fully booked for all performances. We all enjoyed the show, and we were joined by the Ninja Warrior.
After Rent, the Axe Murderer, the Ice Princess, the Ninja Warrior, and I went to Applebee's for dinner. The Ice Princess wanted the American experience, so we figured an American sports bar restaurant would be the ideal. She loved her apple pie by the way. The look of her thoroughly enjoying that plate of sizzling apple pie made me realize that sometimes I get to overlook the simple joys in life at times. There are times in which I may be zooming through life, pursuing my hopes and dreams, that sometimes, I forget to stop and enjoy the scenery.
Alas, all visits must come to an end, and so the 24-hour stay that the Axe Murderer and the Ice Princess had with me had to end as well. We stopped by a wine store to buy some Californian wine, since the Ice Princess wanted some to carry back to Canada. After that, we went back to my place, they packed their bags, and then they were off to the bus station again.
All in all, it was a great and educational weekend (I didn't realize that "ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ" can be a sound that describes something totally unrelated to sleeping at all). I hope that I can fix this travel inflexibility that I currently have, so I can cross the border again sometime and return their visit in the future.

Hours before the day dawns on the world in this area, I lay in my bed (wide awake) pondering and wondering, speculating and imagining what our world may be like today, knowing and realizing that other days in other parts of the world have already ended just as mine began; and, it really does not matter to me if they are actually behind or ahead as what could really be the difference in a few hours?
I have been told or at least heard a few times that wealthy people can celebrate New Year's Eve several times each year ( and some do) by flying from from time zone to another time zone; and, I suppose that this is done simply because it can be done, so in that fact must dwell all the excitement in doing it.
Minutes before the day dawns on this side of the world, I decide (without hesitation I might add) that my body is in need of coffee, but it is now only the decaf kind, so the need is more psychological than anything else... still, there is a need that must be fulfilled in me.
Fondly (or as best as I can recall), I remember both my parents (but I do have siblings) drinking coffee each and every morning, so I can sure that this is where the roots of my desire for coffee were planted; however, I can say for sure in an absolute way, but I typically awoke with no other people in the mornings unless I was away at some kind of summer camp.
The day has now dawned and as it continues its dawning process, I sit in the same spot on the same couch by the same table and lamp as I did the day before and turn off the air circulation fan just as I did the day before as it it too chilly in this part of the house in which I always find myself sitting.
Cats wandering around in front of me without knowing what they are doing after receiving their morning treats still serve to amuse me, but not as much as the first day I noticed this behavior.
Numbness in the fingers of my left hand remind me I should not attempt to pick anything up with that hand or move anything using these fingers for a few minutes unless I want the item in question to be dropped.
While decaf coffee may not tastes as good as my ole regular coffee, for the purposes of why any coffee is ingested at all so early in the morning each day, it works.
Retired and ready to go somewhere at a moment's notice, I reflect upon the obligations that I would leave behind: some important, some not at all, and I wish that I could possess that type of personality to just get up and leave, but I do not, as planning for me is the only way to go and the only methodology that leaves me with a relatively high sense of security... knowing that nothing is one hundred percent in that area.
Still, at this present point in my life, I know that my days are numbered (excuse the cliché) even though I would not gamble as if life were a game of Roulette with these numbers as some do; but, with that said, I am more aware than ever that the life we have been given, has been given to us in the manner and spirit as one might give a gift to a loved one.
If, we human beings have the capacity to love and hate then we damn sure have the capacity to appreciate and be grateful.
Oftentimes, and too often perhaps, we focus on love and hate and forget all about appreciating and being grateful. And, if humans had a flaw that would be it.
TinyBuddha.com lets us know that there are 7 Steps that we must take in order to achieve a beautiful life:
- Know thyself
- Define Beautiful Life
- Start Work on #2
- Appreciate where you are in the process
- Adjust expectations
- Count your blessings
- Live the life
But, while this Tiny Buddha seems to make sense, I believe that this Tiny Buddha is sitting on its own head, creating a less than positive circular approach to achieving this Beautiful Life.
So, let me explain:
Step One is a valid first step as one must understand who one is before any type of definition of what a Beautiful Life means to them can be created.
Step Two is also valid, in that there is indeed a second step, but I am not convinced that creating a definition is it.
It seems to me that Step One and Step Two are so intertwined that they cannot be separated but more importantly, it may take an entire lifetime before either is really and truly found. And, as Step One changes and it will change throughout one's lifetime, so too will Step Two change. Therefore, not only should these steps be combined but also be seen as a work in progress rather than an actual step.
Step Three is a natural by product of Steps One and Two, therefore it too should not be considered a step but a sub-process to whatever preceded it, consequently.
Step Two should actually be what the Tiny Buddha refers to as "Count Your Blessings."
Step Four, according to the Tiny Buddha is "Appreciate where you are in the process," but I would submit to you that this is an irrelevant step as if you know yourself and have defined a beautiful life then no appreciation need take place at all because of the constant evolution of yourself and what you are moving towards. Appreciation assumes that one has reached a static level and that should never happen.
Why is this?
Because, a beautiful life is composed of both good and bad from the very beginning which is why it should be referred to as a beautiful life... since one is alive as opposed to being dead. And, if you really know yourself, then you will realize that this is the only way to actually perceive and define a Beautiful Life... and, this is precisely why it is a lifetime journey. And, if you do not see it this way, then why are you taking this journey (or at least considering it) in the first place?
So, let's rewrite the steps...
Step One – know thyself/define beautiful life/start the journey
Step Two – count your blessing and be grateful
For example, I am thankful (blessed if you will) for the following:
- being debt free
- living where I am living
- having cancer
- have heart disease
- being married
- having the parents I had
- having the life I had (and still have)
- having only simple desires and needs
- understanding what I understand
Why am I thankful, blessed, and appreciate these 9 things? Because, I am the person I am now as a consequence of all these things happening in my life when they did... if, they had not happened, I would not be who I am today... I still be who I was.
So, how did you get here?
I don't rightly know, but I did.
So, you cannot tell me how?
No, not really...
My friend(s), each journey is different as is each blessing as is each perceived daily gift, and it is up to you to discover the right way to see these gifts and blessings and the right way to appreciate them as well but only after they have been truly discovered.
There is not right or wrong way to do this.
I cannot really tell you when it was that my journey actually started, but if I had to speculate, then, I would say it began on or about the time that I was first diagnosed with having cancer; although, I would also speculate that I had been on this journey already but simply did not know it... and, it may be much the same for you... as, we are all looking for something in life as well as out of life, but we just don't know what that something is or when it is that we are in actual possession of that something, until long after we have acquired it.

They in- clude Major James W. Clark, Capt. Joseph A. Dickerman and Capt. Walter J. McKlnsey. Entries in the Special Ser- vice sponsored contest will be accepted by the Target staff beginning today. The contest will end July 15. Drawings submitted for the contest need not be done in color, however, in cases where color is not used, the color must be indicated in writing. The EFTC regulations govern- ing field insignia prohibit the use of the shield form as the basic outline; however, the use of the shield within the insignia is authorized. The use of caricatures which ire widely known or recognized is not recommended. When copy- righted features or carica- tures are incorporated in the design, a release will be ob- tained from the owner and sub- Bitted with the design. The ase of copyrighted material which will involve payment of royalties is not encouraged. Letters, mottoes, names or initials of stations are not authorized within the basic Insignia, but may be used out- side of the basic design on a scroll or ribbon border. A prize of $25 in Post Ex- change merchandise will be a- warded to the designer of the winning insignia. SIMILAR LAUNDRY MARKS POSE PANTS PROBLEM If 2nd Lt. Richard F. Loftis is caught wearing his command- ing officer's trousers around Tyndall Field, there really isn't much anyone can do about it, not even the 'CO.' Laundry marks In the Army consist of the initial and last four numbers of a sol- dier's serial number. In the case of Lt. Loftis his is L-0632. In the case of Captain A.E. Larson, commanding officer of the group to which Lt. Loftis is attached, his laundry mark Is also L-0632. So it's all very confusing, to the laundry, to the lieutenant and to the captain.

TYNDALL GUNNERY PILOT RECEIVES SILVER STAR FOR HEROIC ACTION WHEN CRPPPLED 'FORT' DOWNS ENEMY FIGHTER Fighting their way through a deadly maze of enemy fighter planes and heavy anti-aircraft fire, a crew of a crippled Fly- ing Fortress reached its objective over enemy territory, bombed Its target and then, with the plane afire, all motors Inopera- tive, and the cockpit instruments demolished, managed to shoot down an enemy fighter before "hitting the silk." This heroic action recently won for 1st Lt. William A. Slaughter. of Augusta, Ga., aow an aerial gunnery pilot at Tyndall, the Silver Star, 'for gallantry in action at great risk of life and against over- whelming odds." The medal was presented to Lt. Slaughter at a review parade by Col. John W. Person, commanding. Lt. Slaughter and his crew, although suffering from in- juries received in the air battle, made good their escape from enemy occupied territory sometimes passing "right under the noses of the enemy, and were highly praised in the citation for the teamwork that made it possible. The citation for the crew reads in part as follows: 'This gallant crew of a B-17 type aircraft was heavily at- tacked as they were nearing the target by a large forma- tion of enemy fighter air- craft. Despite injuries to their plane, they continued on to the target through an In- tense barrage of enemy anti- aircraft fire, scoring great damage to enemy installations, equipment, personnel and ma- teriel. "After leaving the target, several direct hits by anti- aircraft fire rendered all four engines inoperative, shattered the nose section, demolished the cockpit instruu- ments and set fire to the air- craft. In spite of their wounds, the crew stayed with their falling aircraft, and regardless of flames, shot down an enemy fighter and beat off wave after wave of ag- gressive attacks. 'When loss of altitude made it imperative to abandon ship, those who were not wounded placed parachutes on those who were too severely wounded to shift for themselves, and aid- ed them in leaving the falling and flaming aircraft, making sure that all members had jumped safely. Upon reaching the ground, each member of the crew aided in locating the injured members, caring for them and guiding them through enemy territory, sometimes passing within SO yards of enemy encampments. 'By their outstanding gal- lantry, unselfish heroism, de- votion to duty and inherent courage, these men have dis- tinguished themselves and the Armed Forces of the United States of America." TYNDALL B-17 SETS NEW OFFICIAL MAINTENANCE RECORD A new world's record for maintenance of four-engine heavy bombers, recognized as official ty the Air Service Command, was set here this week. With Lt. R.C. Merchant, a graduate of Bay County high school in Panama City, at the controls, a Tyndall B-17 flew past the 1,076th hour needed for the new record for heavy bombers, without a major over- haul of any of its four big engines. * The 'ig bomber at Tyndall had previously claimed a rec- ord, but the claim was dis- puced by a ship at the Ros- well, N.M., Army Air Base, which was reported to have flown 1,075 hours and 30 min- utes. The Tyndall Fortress flew to 1,076 hours and 10 minutes with Lt. Marchant at the controls to set the new all-time record. Another Panama Citian, Cpl. Ernest Branning, served as as- cistant crew chief on the flight which established the record now recognized by the Air Service Command. Lt. Merchant Is the son of Mr. and Mrs. ..C. Marchant, of Bay Harbor, and Cpl. Branning is the son of Mr. and Mrs. S.M. Branning, also of Bay Harbor. Sgt. Clifford E. Allen, Jr., of Stamford, Conn., is the crew chief of the record- breaking Fort.

Material credited to CNS may NOT be republished with- out prior permission from CNS. DWIGHT BOILEAU, THE MIGHTY MITE Several months ago there appeared in The Target an editorial entitled "Why??"' In it reference was made to the "indi- viduals who, despite the lack of cooper- ation and appreciation by the men on the field, consistently volunteered their talent for the field's entertainment activities." One of the men we had in mind whenwe wrote those lines was S/Sgt. Dwight Boileau. Boileau left us on the recent shipment of men to Maine. For two and a half years his fine tenor voice was the high- light of the leading field social func- tions, including many wedding cere- monies. He could always be depended upon to lend his cooperation to any project where it was felt his talents were needed. He was one of the leaders of the group which put on the first T/F radio show over WDLP back in February of 1942. He shied away from publicity, whether it was praise for a performance on the stage or a boost to his reputa- tion as one of the field's top-notch clerks. He arrived on the field a buck sergeant, and left here one grade higher. We never once heard him gripe about it. That's the Tyndall background on Dwight Boileau. In last Sunday's Dothan, Ala., "Eagle" there was a full column devoted to the most recent deed of the former Tyndall soldier. Dwight's home is in California, but he decided that instead of spending his delay enroute on a train between Maine and California, he would spend his free time near Dothan. His first stop upon arriving there was to seek out the county employment agent. The agent referred him to a farmer in the vicinity who was desperately in need of help. Dwight went out to see the farmer and immediately went to work. His first two days were spent guiding an unruly trac- tor through the rich Alabama soil. The farmer and his wife practically adopted him. It astounded the farmer's neigh- bors that a soldier would voluntarily seek such labor, particularly while on a furlough. The feature writer of the Dothan Eagle omitted few adjectives in extoll- ing Boileau's act of doing his part to overcome the manpower shortage on the farm. Put we weren't surprised when we read about it. For those of us who know Dwight, know that he will discount his c ores on the farm with a shrug of the shoulders and laugh it off as a lark. Helping people out was an every- day affair for him. Boileau often was called "the mighty mite," because he could do so much in spite of his lack of height. It seems as though he inesn't intend to slacken his pace. But then, no real soldier ever does--and Dwight is one of the best. DREAMS Remember the days, the days that went by; Of dreams with futures, dreams w th a sigh. It was a dream for two, wi th children of three, oo bring us happiness, for you and for me. So all through this war to- gether we'll fight; We'll still hold our dreams and thoughts for tonight. Fighting for freedom; this is ours too, Striving together for our dreams to come true. -.John Wycoki, Student Gunner.

General Information: Soldiers should be easy meat for temptation at this time They are somewhat lonesome for hom They are living on their own for the first time. They like to have their com- panions think of them as bad apples. Their work is hard-and when they get tired, they are easy prey for us. They have no women in their life, and are suckers for dirty stories. All the restraints are off, which is just per- fect for our business. 2. Arms and Equipment: (a) SEX. The two great helps to our business in this matter are dirty language and filthy pictures. Let all the allies keep sug- gesting dirty stories to the servicemen, and when the GI hears a dirty story keep pushing it home in his mind. Dirty language, swearing, etc., will also be a big help in winning these men for hell Keep telling them that it doesn't m any difference what they say...becaus everyone else is saying the same things. They will also be very lonesome for their wives or sweethearts. ALL ALLIES MUST CAMPAIGN FOR PIN-UPS! They are first rate passports to hell. (b) RELIGIOUS EXERCISES. Keep telling them how tired they are on Sunday morn- ing. This should be very easy, and a little suggestion will keep them in bed on Sunday morning. This is important because when they go to church they get great strength to resist us. Don't ever let them go to Holy Communion, for that is pure poison to our best work. Keep telling them how hard it is to get food after Communion, how the other men will think they are panty-waists. (c) CHAPLAINS. Make fun of the Chap- lains. Chaplains are very dangerous to our war-effort-and the best way to im- mobilize their work is to make fun it. Get your best workers to ride al the GI's who go to see the Chaplain. And particularly ride the ears off the few zealots who help the Chaplains sab- otage our work. 3. Safety Precautions: Occasionally you will find a GI who says a prayer during the day, that horrible thing that causes us so much trouble and puts out so many fires in hell. Work on him immediately. One man who says prayers can ruin a whole squad-even a division-for our work. As soon as you find a praying soldier, get your best workers to boob the life out of him. Nothing is more dangerous to our work than a praying soldier. 4. Security and Protection:. Above ev- erything else, make fun of the zealo who claim that the Devil has any infl ence on men. This is a well-known fifth column procedure that worked in all countries in Europe, and will work with dumb Americans too. 5. Reports: Full and detailed reports should be turned in each week, and ad- vice sought from Headquarters for indi- vidual problems. If everyone will give his whole attention to the problems com- mitted to his change, we should be able to increase the population of Hell con- siderably and win many victories against our Great Enemy, God. BEELZEBUB Chief of Staff Page 2 Chaplain Taft A. Franklin, a Presbyterian minister in civilian life and dow spiritual advisor to the men of Triggertown, recently decided to turn half of his office into a chapel where the Catholic boys in the ship- ping and receiving pool could say a prayer. He received the enthusiastic support of Father Dorney for his project, and when it was nearly completed, Chaplain Franklin ap- proached Father Dorney about a mural for the little chapel. Father Dorney recalled that a young Jewish boy, an incoming stu- dent, had come to him several days pre- viously with a problem, and while waiting this lad had made several excellent pencil sketches. Perhaps this boy could help. The Catholic chaplain journeying to Triggertown young artist, whose name lost no time In in search of the he didn't know. However, as luck would have it, Pvt. Leon- ard Dworkins remembered Father Dorney and stepped out from a waiting chow line to introduce himself. When he heard what' Father Dorney had sought him out for he could hardly conceal his enthusiasm and wanted to get to work on the mural immedi- ately. Of course there was the little mat- ter of getting relieved from K.P. and other details, but headquarters readily gave con- sent and Dworkins went to work. Above is a photograph of the finished mural, with the artist on the left and Father Dorney and Chaplain Franklin on the right. In the center of the mural is Christ with outstretched arms. On the right panel Is the Blessed Virgin Mary in blue, with a gunner kneeling before her. On the left side is St. Barbara, patroness of gunners, with a pilot on his knees asking her help.

Some of them had been here long enough to wear out the 'welcome' mat in front of their orderly rooms, others considered Tyndall just a stop over. In any case, each contributed his share to Tyndall's part in this war and many of them are being mourned over short beers by their buddies left behind. That shipment hit us in a big way. We lost our eternal Pfc., Edward T. Delbyck, writer of the Target's editorials for the past six months, creator of the col- umn "As I Pfc. It. and author of such Target feature stories as #Muscles on the Mend,' 'Tooth or Consequences, and most re- cently, "The First Tyndall Gun- ner.' In a way, Del pulled a fast one-he talked himself onto the shipping list. But then a 'snow jobs has always been one of his most potent weapons, and many a time he has succeeded in lull- ing members of the staff into false security with his facile tongue. To say that Del was a regular guy would not be a trite phrase, for there are many who sought his assistance regularly on varied matters, and he seldom, if ever, let them down. A lover or all sports, good food, rlowery language and table stakes poker, we'll remember Del best for his particular fondness for fresh green peppers and aversion to K.P.

EM'S, WACS INVITED TO JOIN MIXED CHORUS Enlisted men and Wacs of Tyn- dall Field are invited to join the recently-organized T/F mixed chorus, under the direction.of Lt. John M. Zuker, assistant Spe- cial Service Officer. The group meets each Thursday at the Post Chapel at 7 p.m. The chorus will sing music of both a secular and sacred charac- ter, with the members largely de- .ciding for themselves as to the exact type of selections they will present. According to Lt. Zuker, selections will range from Fred Waring arrangements to Bach Chorals, depending upon the taste and choice of the chorus members. Present plans call for the chorus to perform at concerts, broadcasts and many other field social functions.

TYNDALL GUNNER, SHOT DOWN, FINDS REFUGE IN VATICAN An aeria gunner who was gradu- ated from Tyndall early in 1943 was one of 19 Allied fliers shot down over Italy who found refuge in the Vatican and were freed when Rome was captured from the Germans, according to press dis- patches. The Tyndall Field gunner was Sgt. Bernard Louis Scallsi, of Abbeville, La. The gunner was shot down over Viterbo, Italy, and descended by parachute. He was forced to spend three months "in the wilds of Italy," he said, hiding from the Germans as he slowly made his way to Rome, where he slipped into the city and climbed the Vatican walls at night. A knowledge of Italian helped him to obtain aid from the na- tives in evading capture by the Nazis. His main worry while in the Vatican, he told his parents in a letter, was that a $100 check he had written to meet his ex- penses would bounce. "Make sure there is over $100 in the bank, as I don't want to be put in jail for writing false checks," he advised his parents. "Be sure the money is in the right bank. " While in the Vatican Sgt. Scal- isi had tea with the American minister and his family. "It sure was good to talk nothing but Eng- lish after being in the wilds of Italy for almost three months and speaking nothing but Italian." The sergeant said that in the Vatican "we lead the lives of kings. Italians stood guard around Vatican City and it was hard for the Allied soldiers to make their way to the refuge which awaited them there. But once they were inside, the Vatican offered them asylum in accordance with inter- national law. They were well fed and were not required to work, but some volunteered as garden- ers. As the Germans fled Rome, an Austrian got into the city and received the same shelter as Al- lied soldiers. Sgt. Scallsl was able to write to his parents in this country, but the War Department asked them to keep the news to themselves until after Rome was taken GUNNER OF Youngest student gunner to be selected as top man in his class is Pvt. Charles M. Burton, 18- year-old native of Paris, Tenn. The ranking gunner of class 44-26 named his camera missions as the most interesting phase of his training here, "especially be- cause of the excellent instruc- tors on my missions." "I used to hunt quite often at home and therefore I had quite a time on the skeet ranges," said the young gunner. In the Army but six months, Burton hopes to enter college at the war's close and take up elec- trical engineering. Here are his gunnery school records.

Your complete uniform, in- cluding your $15.50 wool overcoat and your 5-cent cotton hanker- chiefs, cost the government $114.86 at the outset. It also costs the Army $75.37 a year to maintain these duds for you. Q. Look. I'm the member of the ground crew of an air combat squadron stationed in England. The flying members of this squad- ron are permitted to wear service stars to show they have been in combat. But my orderly room tells me that ground crew mem- bers are not permitted to wear these stars because we have not seen combat in the air. Ts this correct? A. No, your Orderly Room is mistaken. The War Department says that all members of a unit credited with battle participation may wear a bronze service star on the appropriate service ribbon. As a member of a ground crew you come under this category. Q. Will I be permitted to wear my uniform after my discharge from the Army. A. You can wear it from the place where you get your dis- charge to your home, provided that you go there within three months of the discharge date. You may also wear it at military cer- emonies in peacetime. Q. Is there anyone outside the Army who is permitted to wear Army officers' uniforms? A. Yes. Officers of Allied Na- tions on duty in the U. S. are auz thorized to purchase and wear U. S. Army officers' uniforms. No U. S. Army insignia nor identifi- cation will be worn with the uni- forms, of course, as the co-bellig- erent officers will wear their own insignia. Press correspondents also are permitted to wear offi- cers' uniforms without insignia. Helicopter Fire Fighters New York (CNS) -The Coast Guard is using a helicopter to fight fires in this area.

Burton Paae 4 TYNDALL TARGET THE TYNDALL TARGET Pae All Gaul has now been divided into rwo parts. One part is the Normandy peninsula, in Caesar's Celtica, and it is in the hands of the Allies. The other part, of course,, is the rest of France, and it still is in the somewhat disputed possession of the Germans. As this is written, American infantry- men are smashing into the suburbs of Cherbourg, the great French port at the western tip of the peninsula, while German forces work feverishly to destroy the docks which Allied forces need if the men and equipment for the last big push are to reach France. The Germans before have attempted to ruin the harbors from which they have een evicted, in Italy, in Sicily and n North Africa. One of the great accomplishments of the war has been the repair and salvage work done by Allied engineers to put those ports back into condition again. The Normandy peninsula can be presumed to be held firmly by the Allies-more specifically by the Americans who had the job of taking over the peninsula. But stiff resistance by Nazi armored forces is still being encountered at the base of the triangular-shaped pfenin- sula, where the British troops are en- gaged. Through dozens of small French vil- lages and medium-sized towns the roar of battle is being heard. Scores of tanks are being destroyed by each of the opposing forces. In the Cherbourg area are an estimated 25,000 to 50,000 Germans, few of whom will be able to escape death or capture. * The first-and perhaps the last-major naval battle is developing -in the west- ern Pacific. Japan's fleet, long in hiding, at last has emerged to challenge the power- ful forward strides which Allied forces are taking in the direction of Tokyo. There have been great air battles. United States carrier planes have pounc- ed on the Jap ships with bombs and tor- pedoes in the preliminary phases of the great battle. The American Fifth Fleet has more than a thousand planes to hurl at the Nip- ponese. The Japs, who apparently have more than a handful of planes them- selves, lost 300 on Sunday in an at- tack on the Fifth Fleet. The Japs said that already they "have suffered considerable losses of ships and planes." This, of course, could be a statement designed to make the Ameri- can commanders think the Japs have been weakened more than they really have. Now, if ever, is the time for the Jap fleet to go into action. For with the landings on Saipan Island in the Mari- annas, American forces are in the proc- ess of seizing an air base within B-17 range of Japan itself. If the Americans can, from the base on Saipan, spread out to take control of the rest of the Mari- annas, then Bonin Island might also fall before Yank attacks and thus give a base less than a thousand miles from Tokyo. Saipan and Biak Island off the.coast of New Guinea, where we are soon to have other air bases, would furnish two points from which American bombers could strike easily at the Jap-held islands off the coast of the Philippines, and at the Philippines themselves. Incidentally, the Japs who now occupy Wake Island must be pretty nervous. On all sides of them are American-occupied. islands. They are sitting right in the middle of the American "Sphere of In- fluence." If Japan can spare the ships, which is doubtful, it wouldn't be sur- prising to find some morning that the Nip garrison has departed. * Elba, where the first Napoleon spent a brief exile between his two attempts to conquer the world, fell this week into the hands of the Allies. The little island off the Italian coast fell to French colonial troops, who in addition to the island took pos- session of 1,800 Germans garrisoned there. Nazi resistance in Italy was stiffen- ing somewhat, although the Allied ad- vance toward the Germans' defense line T IME TRENDS ONE YEAR AGO THIS WEEK Allied air attacks blasted Sicily and nearby island of Sardinia.

Charles Bennett of Boston and Herb Kaufman of New York, battl- ing in the 140 pound class, step- ped into the ring In the opener and set the pace for the bouts that followed. The pair put on a fast and scrappy performance, with Kaufman gaining the edge by virtue of several hard punches landed in the third round. In the second fight, Herb Crock- er of Massachusetts and Joe Bor- der of Missouri went through two rounds without much contact and it wasn't until late in the third canto that Crocker opened up with a flurry of blows which drove Borden to the corner and kept him there as the bell sounded to end the contest, with Crocker earning the decision. George Carbin of Boston, ap- pearing on the card for the fifth straight time, was matched with John Anderson, Idaho, in the third bout. The men traded punches on even terms in the first but Carbin was awarded a TKO as Anderson failed to answer the bell for the start of the second round. He was stricken with stomach cramps and forced to leave the ring. A pair of 160-pounders donned the gloves in the evening's fourth go, Dave Benson of Massachusetts anm Amando Landlolinda of New York. Both boys left little doubt of their boxing skill from the start and in the first round several hard blows were ex, changed, with the huskier and shorter Benson apparently gaining the edge in the initial frame. However, in the second round, Landiollnda opened up and caught Benson with sharp lefts and rights to the face which sent the latter to the canvas for the count of nine. As soon as Benson was on his feet, Amando pressed his advantage and resumed his merciless attack, again driving Benson to the floor with savage rights, this time for the full count. An exhibition match was on the menu In the fifth spot, with veteran Charles Blankenship and Dick McDonough as the exhibitors. Blankenship, fighting one of his cleanest fights in months, traded blows on even terms with the wily McDonough and the crowd roared its approval of the well-fought exhibition at its close. Nick Ranieri, former student gunner and now an instructor, and Charles Davey, aviation cadet from Detroit, were the gladiators in the TeatCre bout of the eve- ning. Ranieri, a favorite with the patrons, was making his first ring appearance In more than a month. Davey, on the other hand, was fresh from his easy win over Dinty Moore in the preceding week's fights. They were well- matched and most of the first two rounds was spent feeling each other out. In the third, the boys again opened up cautiously but there were several hard ex- ohanges )f lefts before the bell sounded. The contest was de- clared a drw. Refereeing the matches was Pfc. Gerard Kooy of the MP detachment, a former pro wrestler. Ensign N1itchell of the Coast Guard and Dinty Moore (right) rushes Charles Davey, but Davey seems to be ready and waiting.

June 24. 1944 L LADNYT T A R G ET BOTH TYNDALL NINES WIN SIXTH STRAIGHT ; SINK ELLI THREE HOMERS FEATURE TORNADO ATTACK AS DICKERMAN AND SOUTHARD EACH HURL 6-HIT BALL; LIVINGSTON'S RELIEF EXCELLENT BRONSON, WITH WILLIAMS, HERE TOMORROW There was enough satisfaction and glory in the Tornadoes' twin victory over Ellyson this past weekend to be passed around in large chunks to each member of the squad. First of all, it was the sixth straight win, and Saturday's 6-0 triumph was the first shutout reg- istered by the Tyndall team this year. Joe Dickerman hurled six of the seven innings, giving up a half dozen hits. Only one Ellyson runner reached third base. Dale Livingston took the mound in the seventh and last inning and re- tired the side without a hit. In the field, the Tornadoes set some kind of record by executing a double play In each of the first three innings. At bat, the boys from Tyndall swung for extra bases and connected. Shortstop Billy Hines and Centerflelder Les Tarr blasted out the first pair of T/F homers in many a game, while Second Baseman Hub Freeman continued his distance slugging with two triples in three trips to the plate. Sunday saw the Tornadoes com- pletely avenge their two-game setback by Ellyson in May, as the Tyndall nine collected 15 hits off two Navy hurlers and won the ballgame 12-3. Lefty Southard chalked up his fourth win of the year, striking out 11 and walking none. Dale Livingston relieved Lefty In the seventh and contin- ued the remarkable pitching by fanning six of the nine batters who faced him, giving up no hits and also walking none. Jack Polcynski, Tornado utility outfielder, replaced Leftfielder Orange in the sixth and followed up his single in that inning with a tremendous homer In the eighth. Jack tagged the ball well and many believe his drive eclipsed that of Ted Williams when the former American League batting champ tripled in the Bronson game here several weeks ago. Tyndall scored its first run in Saturday's seven inning contest in the second inning on two hits. They added another in the third on the same number of bingles and repeated in the fourth by virtue of Red Tarr's booming four-bagger into center field. The Tornadoes concluded their scoring in the sixth with three runs to bring their total to six while the El- lyson nine was being blanked by hurlers Dickerman and Livingston. Billy Hines' homer was the big blow in that sixth, with two men on base at the time. In Sunday's tussle, Tyndall got off to a flying start by bunching three hits oh top of an Ellyson error to score four runs. The visitors almost closed the gap in the second on Ramsey's triple which scored Duffy and a field- er's choice which permitted Ram- sey to tally and bring the count to 4-2- The Tornadoes added one in their half of the third and another in the fifth for a 6-2 lead, and then put the game on ice in the sixth with another quartet of runs. Polcynski's round-tripper in the eighth with one on scored the final pair of Tyndall runs. Ellyson pushed across its third marker in the sixth on two hits. This afternoon, on home grounds, the Tornadoes will play the Fort Barrancas r.ine, with Bronson Field as the T/F opposition In tomorrow's contest, also to be played on the post diamond. The T/F squad holds a 2-0 count over the Barrancas players, while the Bronson-Tyndall series stands at 1-1. Ted Williams, -Bob Kennedy, Ray Stoviak and Nick Tremark, former major leaguers, are ex- pected to be In the Bronson line- up.

Ernest Streeter probably will hurl for the local team with the veteran Beau Dawkins donning the mask and pads. Last Sunday's game was strictly a cne-man story--Jenkins. The little right-hander who has not lost a game this season was in top-notch form, and dazzled the Napier batsmen with a variety of curves and fast balls. He fanned 15 men in seven Innings, and is- sued only one free pass. He was given sparkling support by his teammates, especially Willie Ran- dall at third base and Tom Adams in left field. It looked like a no-hit, no-run game for Jenkins, but with one out in the last inn- ing, Second Baseman Grimes tripled to left center and Left Fielder Williams singled to score the losers' only run. In addition, Jenkins led his teammates at bat, bashing out three solid singles in as many trips to the plate. Tyndall tallied Its first run when Shortstop Harrison, leadoff man, belted the Initial pitch far over the left fielder's head for a home run. He circled the bases before the ball could be re- trieved and returned to the in- field. Singles by Brown, Phil- lips and Dawklns accounted for another Tyndall tally in the opening frame. The opening blast from Tyndall bats blew starting Pitcher Taylor off the mound and Into the showers before the first Inning was over. Owens, relief hurler, managed to retire the Bombers without further damage, but he ran into trouble in the second trame when Jenkins, Harrison and Brown drove out solid smashes for two more tallies. The final Tyndall tally came in the third inning on a walk, fielder's choice and single by Jenkins. The Bombers were held n check for theory te rest of the game by Owen, who proceeded to turn in a neat performance. The Bombers collected 11 base hits, Jenkins leading with three, Harrison and Brown following with two apiece. Randall looked exr- ceptionally good at third base, while Adams, playing left field for the first time, turned In several fine running catches to keep Jenkins out of trouble.

PAYSON, Utah — That's plane crazy.
An angry husband was killed when he slammed a stolen plane into his own home in an apparent bid to kill his wife after spending a night in jail for domestic abuse, police said.
Duane Youd, of Payson, Utah had been jailed Sunday following the dispute with his wife on Sunday evening. A few hours later he was released and escorted back to the family home to collect some belongings, the Payson police said.
Early Monday morning, two hours after leaving the home, Youd stole a Cesna 52 citation jet from a company where he had worked, and flew it into the front door of the home and burst into flames, police said.
Youd was killed in the crash, but his wife and one of their children who was home at the time, escaped from the burning house unharmed.
The plane narrowly missed some power lines on the way down and clipped another home before crashing.
"It's a lucky thing for us, if anything in this whole situation, is we have the destruction of property and one male deceased, but it could have been so much worse," Payson Police Sgt. Noemi Sandoval told KSL-TV.
Police say they are aware of one other domestic violence incident in which Youd was arrested within the past year.
