Poplar Grove church is a symbol of diversity and service
Story and photo by JACOB RUEDA
In the heart of Poplar Grove lies St. Patrick Catholic Church, a haven of spirituality for the residents of this area of Salt Lake City. The parish located at 1040 W. 400 South serves not only as a host to communities from different parts of the world, but also as a steward in one of the roughest areas of town.
Father Anastasius Iwuoha hails from Nigeria and began serving as pastor of St. Patrick parish in August 2016. Before arriving at St. Patrick, he served in various parishes around the Salt Lake Diocese. He calls the difference between where he served previously and St. Patrick "glaring."
While serving in another parish, "if you came to any of the masses, if there is any single person that is not Caucasian, you would spot the person immediately," Iwuoha says. The range of nationalities represented at the parish is the most diverse he's seen during his time in Salt Lake City. "St. Patrick's is uniquely multiethnic, multiracial," he says.

In its early days St. Patrick served Italian and Irish immigrants to Utah, according to the Fall 2019 issue of The West View. Today, the cultural makeup includes people from the Pacific Islands, Myanmar, Philippines and Africa.
Rita Stelmach, 60, noticed the changing demographic of parishioners. She has attended St. Patrick since she was 19. "We have the most different mixture of cultures at St. Patrick's," Stelmach says.
Anthony Martinez, director of religious education and youth ministry, says some communities outgrew the parish and established themselves elsewhere. For example, the Vietnamese and Hispanic communities either built their own parish in other parts of the Salt Lake Valley or they settled in other parishes.

Salt Lake Diocese Bishop Lawrence Scanlan established St. Patrick in 1892, when it was originally located at 500 West and 400 South. The Salt Lake Tribune reported in April 1916 the purchase for the grounds where the church is today. Scanlan's successor, Joseph Sarsfield Glass, bought the property from Bothwell & McConaughy Real Estate and Investment Company for $6,000 ($140,728.62 in 2019 value).
The parish experienced a number of events in its history, including fires in 1924 and 1965 that gutted the church but did not destroy it. In July 2019, St. Patrick celebrated its centennial and unearthed a time capsule containing fragments of the old parish, photographs and newspaper clippings.
Throughout its history, the parish has served the local community in different ways.
"We opened our hall and the hall was the center for the neighborhood meeting for a long time," Iwuoha says. The parish served as neutral ground for town hall meetings where even the police came to participate. "They [came] here to decide the fate of the whole neighborhood," he says.
In addition, church outreach projects focus on helping the homeless population in the area. Organizations like the Daughters of Charity and the Knights of Columbus work in conjunction with the parish, says director Martinez. They provide aid and donations for distribution to individuals experiencing homelessness. Likewise, students from J.E. Cosgriff Memorial Catholic High School donate food items during Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Martinez grew up in Poplar Grove and recognizes some of the stigma surrounding that area. "I'm beyond proud of where I come from," he says, adding that people who are unfamiliar with the neighborhood judge it based on news reports and not direct involvement with those who live there.
Iwuoha echoes that sentiment, saying that his experience is different from what others told him it would be. "The impression I got when I came here was, here are a humble people, humble and vibrant people," he says. "That's my own personal treasure, not the one I got from [others]."
Roadsnacks.com reports the neighborhood around the church is one of the less reputable areas of Salt Lake City. However, statistics from December 2019 from the Salt Lake Police Department show a drop in overall crime.
The parish works to promote a "spirit of peace and good neighborliness" in the area through participation in church and local events as well as Sunday sermons. "When [people] come to church and when we preach and teach, they go back and become good citizens and good neighbors," Iwuoha says. Additionally, the summer carnival brings the neighborhood together to show support for the church and the community.
The parish faces challenges despite community support. The structure of the main church and the surrounding buildings are crumbling due to age and wear. Cracks that are haphazardly patched are visible in the church walls and there is water damage from flooding. The biggest problem facing the parish is money.
"The greatest challenge St. Patrick's has now is where to raise funds to replace some of the very aging and dangerous structures we have," Iwuoha says. "The basement is virtually crumbling and the building is at risk." The exact cost for repairs is unknown. The parish was able to repave its parking lot but "at a very huge cost," Iwuoha says.

Setbacks aside, parishioners gather each week in the spirit of worship and community. In its 128-year history, people have arrived at St. Patrick from all over the world to call it home and to share the one thing they have in common.
"St. Patrick's Church is the house of the Lord where everyone is welcome: believers, non-believers, Catholics, even non-Catholics," Martinez says.
Iwuoha says it is a sense of shared faith, a duty to service and pride in America that brings people together to celebrate the spirit of the parish. "They have pride in the nation," he says. "All of us are American."

Filipinos confused about where they belong
Story and photo by MCKENZIE YCMAT
Logging into Ancestry.com to view the results of a DNA test, Robert Ycmat wasn't quite sure what he was going to discover. Once he got the results, they confused him even more.
"The results were interesting," Ycmat said. "Everything seemed pretty standard, but what confused me the most was how they defined me as South Asian/Pacific Islander. I always just considered myself Asian!"
Robert Ycmat at home in his study.
This question is one that many have wondered themselves. Are Filipinos considered Pacific Islanders?
Even when searching for Filipino news on the Pacific Citizen website, hundreds of articles appear talking about politics, food and even Hollywood news in the Philippines.
Rumors have spread that the U.S Census Bureau has officially decided to classify Filipinos from Asian to Pacific Islanders, but according to the Census Bureau's official website, "The Census Bureau has no current plans to classify Filipinos outside of the Asian race category."
According to the Bureau, the Philippines are legally concerned to be a part of Asia. So doesn't that answer the question?
The Philippines consists of 7,000 islands and it was Spain that officially tied them all together into one country in the 16th century. The islands start from the north, by Asia, and slowly slant downward toward the east, closer to the Pacific Islands.
Because of this odd gathering of the islands, many Filipinos from the north classify themselves as Asian, whereas those who live in the southeast islands will sometimes classify themselves as Pacific Islander.
"Although I always considered myself Asian," Ycmat said, "Filipinos have created a culture that is much closer to the traditions of the Pacific Islanders than Asians."
Susi Feltch-Malohifo'ou, the executive director of Pacific Island Knowledge 2 Action Resources, said, Pacific Islanders consist of Native Hawaiians, Samoans, Chamorros, Fijians, Marshallese and Tongans.
What really brings all these different nationalities together are the unique cultures of the Pacific Islanders.
"We believe in the tradition of family," Feltch-Malohifo'ou said. "Sacrifice yourself for the good of the family."
Ycmat agrees with the fact that family was always a staple in the Philippines growing up. It's one of the main reasons that he decided to learn more about who he is through the services of Ancestry.com.
Although Ycmat only lived in the Philippines through his childhood, moving to the United States in his teen years, he remembers his mother holding onto family traditions throughout his life.
"She always put herself first for our family," Ycmat said. "Our father was no longer involved with me and my siblings once we moved to America, so my mother put it on herself to keep us close and to keep the traditions alive."
Just like with most cultures, Filipinos hold onto their traditions tightly. They can find ties in their traditions with Asian culture but also with the Pacific Islander culture as well.
Ycmat's oldest daughter, Danielle Jansson, recently lived in a small city within the Philippines called Iloilo City for a religious mission.
Jansson discussed the importance of the Filipino culture through food, family and tradition. After some reflection, she finally came up with an answer regarding her thoughts on how Filipinos would identify themselves.
"Probably Asian," Jansson said. "But, they don't care and they don't ask. They just know that they're Filipino."
Jansson said the Philippines have taken a lot from the Pacific Island culture like their belief of family and celebration of food. They've also taken values from Asians such as individuality and their sense of independence.
"They care about their family, but they also want to take care of themselves," Jansson said. "They have a personal dream and they want to accomplish it on their own, not just for their family. They're known for being hard workers and they have no shame. They're just Filipino."
Religion plays a big role in culture for both Filipinos and Pacific Islanders.
"Religion, especially the Mormon and Catholic church, teach values of pride and family," Feltch-Malohifo'ou said. "We naturally gravitate towards these religions because of the teachings of love and community."
According to the Harvard Divinity School Religious Literacy Project, "Catholicism has been the cornerstone of Filipino identity for millions in the Philippines. Catholicism rapidly spread during the early years of Spanish colonialism."
After a bloody war called the Philippine–American War in the late 1800s, Americans migrated to the Philippines and even pushed their way through to the Pacific Islands. Because of this, the teachings of the Catholic Church became a common belief among these two countries.
"I kind of like that there's no clear answer to this question (about identity)," Ycmat said. "It makes Filipinos even more unique than they already are. It almost describes Filipinos perfectly — we do what we want because we want to do it, not because we belong to either."
Kirby Araullo, who is the program coordinator for the Asian American Studies undergraduate department at the University of Califonia Davis, discusses this question, "Are Filipinos Asians or Pacific Islanders."
Originally raised in the Philippines, Araullo found that this question was only asked in America. He answers by saying, "It's up to you. We the people have the power to define and redefine ourselves, as long as we respect each other. "

Tom Huynh brings experience as Vietnamese refugee to West Valley City Council
Story and photo by EMILY ANDERSON
When he first arrived at Philippine First Asylum Center (PFAC) in the island province Palawan from Vietnam, Tom Huynh was shocked by the "horrible" conditions of the camp.
"It was a sad place, very depressing," Huynh said. "But people had no choice."
He was immediately placed in a 12-by-12 room with seven other people. His unit was given a card identifying everyone in the flat, which allowed them to obtain two cups of rice, one piece of broccoli and two pieces of fish to be divided among the occupants each day.
As Huynh was standing in line to collect the food during his first few days in the camp, he met a man in his 60s. The man told Huynh that he had a lot to learn in the coming years — the refugee camp was a whole new world.
The pair arrived at the front of the line. The fish given to the man was rotten, although there was a heap of fresh fish behind the refugee who had been assigned to pass out the rations. Huynh said he protested the unjust treatment, but the man stopped him. He told Huynh the pile of newly-caught fish was being saved for the distributor's family and friends.
After thanking Huynh for standing up for him, the man said, "Tom, promise me that if you're ever in a position of power, you will treat people fairly."
Huynh said he has always remembered the man's plea and it has influenced the way he lives his life.
Vietnamese refugee Tom Huynh has served on the West Valley City Council for six years.
Since coming to the U.S., Huynh has pursued a career in politics while working as a real estate agent. He was elected to the West Valley City Council in 2011, and is in his second term in the District 1 seat.
Huynh's journey to government leadership began with his father's efforts to defend his own government.
Journey to Safety
In the aftermath of the Cambodian-Vietnamese war, in which the Socialist Republic of Vietnam invaded Democratic Kampuchea to remove the Khmer Rouge from power, the Vietnamese military continued to fight against armed Cambodian groups who opposed the new regime until 1989.
The government continued to tap all men above age 18 for military service. Many of Huynh's friends had been drafted to patrol the Cambodian borders. Many were killed. Some returned home with missing limbs, he said.
Huynh's father, a South Vietnamese soldier, was killed in the Vietnam War when Huynh was 5 years old. This left his mother to care for her children alone, which included bribing military officials to keep Huynh out of the military.
When the financial pressure on his mother became too great, Huynh said he fled the country on a boat with his 15-year-old sister Tiet in 1986 to avoid being conscripted.
Between 1975 and 1995, others were leaving the country to escape economic despair brought on by U.S. sanctions and destruction left in the wake of the Vietnam War.
Huynh and 99 other refugees packed into a boat that was approximately 10 feet by 30 feet. The group was so densely crowded that Huynh was confined to a singular spot the entire trip.
At one point on the journey, the boat became lost. The party ran out of food and water, then people began dying.
"Everyone was scared to the point that they were like, 'I see you and you see me, but we're not human beings anymore,'" Huynh said. "They knew they were going to die."
It was a miracle that Huynh made it to the refugee camp, he said.
"At that moment, I was not a religious guy," Huynh said. "But I looked into the sky and I said, 'I really don't want to die. I'm only 19. So please help me out.'"
When he arrived, Philippine First Asylum Camp hosted about 3,000 people on approximately 1 square mile of land. The refugees were desperate and crime rates were high.
"There was everything there," Huynh said. "I witnessed a fight where someone stabbed someone else about 2 or 3 feet from me, for no reason really — it was over the water."
Huynh was trying to avoid being lured into crime like the other men his age in the camp, he said, so he volunteered to pass out mail to other refugees.
"I didn't want to waste my time," Huynh said. "I like to work, and the employees at the camp center could see that."
After three months, he was promoted to deputy of the planning commission. His job was to keep records of how many people were staying in each housing unit, then assign rooms to new arrivals.
"It kept me very busy, all day every day," Huynh said. "I was lucky, because then I stayed out of trouble."
Despite the success he found in the camp, Huynh wanted out. The refugees were plagued with rampant alcoholism, drug addiction and violence, while many young women were forced into sex work as a means to make money.
Six months after Huynh arrived at the camp, representatives from the U.N. came to interview refugees to be considered for admission into the U.S. They prioritized people like Huynh, who were children of South Vietnamese soldiers. However, there was one stipulation — refugees had to provide multiple documents to prove their parents' position.
"My dad sacrificed his life, so I had the privilege to go to the city center to speak with the delegation," Huynh said.
Huynh slid his father's military ID — one of the few things he brought on the boat — across the table at his meeting with a U.N. official. This was the only document he had, because his mother, like many other South Vietnamese, burned documents connecting their family to the American forces to avoid persecution from the new government.
The official, whose name Huynh recalled as Pam, told him that although she wanted to sponsor him, she couldn't. The ID wasn't enough documentation to prove that he was the son of a South Vietnamese soldier.
Huynh said he began to worry that he would never be able to leave the camp.
Then, as part of what Huynh called another miracle, there were a series of coup attempts on the Filipino government — one of which resulted in a fierce battle on the streets of Palawan.
The U.S. government became concerned about the welfare of refugees on the island, so it gave a number of those living in PFAC another opportunity to be interviewed for acceptance into the country. Huynh was given a second chance to get out.
Although Huynh was unable to obtain additional documentation, the official he met with told him he had been cleared to leave the camp, and would be transported to the Philippine Refugee Processing Center (PRPC) in Bataan. His next and final stop would be the U.S.
He left PFAC in 1987. Soon after, the U.N. stopped accepting refugees into the camp and began reducing its size. Some people volunteered to return to Vietnam, while others fought the guards and committed suicide.
Huynh was elated to be relieved of the uncertainty associated with being a refugee.
"You don't know where you're going to go, where you're going to end up or how your life is going to be," he said. "Are they going to send you back to Vietnam? Are they going to send you to Canada, Australia or somewhere else? You just don't know. Your destination, your life, depends on someone else. It leaves you feeling powerless and useless."
While at PRPC, Huynh met missionaries from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who were teaching English.
He said he was curious about the religion, because he had been on a quest to find the right religion for him since his plea to God earlier on the boat. Huynh's family was Buddhist, and he previously attended Catholic and Baptist churches.
"I just wanted something that felt comfortable," he said. "At the Mormon church, I had a sense that they were nice people."
When Huynh was processed and relocated to the U.S., he was baptized into the church and served a mission in Washington, D.C., from 1990 to 1992. Huynh credited the changes the religion forced him to make and the lessons he learned on his mission for many of his life's successes.
"I wanted a different path in my life, and my decision brought me to where I am today," he said.
Ongoing Political Journey
Huynh later graduated from Brigham Young University with a degree in Asian studies. Upon graduation, he was appointed president of the Vietnamese Community of Utah. He hopes to eventually go to law school, but for now he wants to continue his political career.
"Politics are very complex," Huynh said. "In China, Vietnam or any communist country, they don't trust government. They don't trust police. Then when [people from those countries] come here, they stay away from government and police — but I want to be different. I want to do something to help people around me."
His determination to forge a path for marginalized communities in politics not only increases the diversity of voices at the table, but also encourages other minorities to be involved in the community.
"It is inspiring to see someone so close to home break down socio-cultural barriers and proving that we are capable of taking on larger roles like politics," said the Vietnamese-American Student Association at the University of Utah in a prepared statement. "The younger Vietnamese-American can often feel detached from the government due to lack of [Vietnamese] representation, often discouraging them from participating in civic engagement. Tom Huynh's position as the West Valley City Councilman empowers the younger generation and encourages them to strive toward active political awareness."
Caren Frost, the director of the Center for Research on Migration and Refugee Integration at the University of Utah, said in a telephone interview that civic engagement is the last step of integration for a refugee. She feels that as Huynh continues to succeed, his political involvement will extend beyond Vietnamese-Americans to inspire all refugees in Utah.
"If a refugee is visible in the community participating in government, then all refugees will feel more comfortable taking the next step and getting involved," Frost said.
As a city councilman, Huynh focuses on mending the problems of not just refugees, but other groups who are also frequently forgotten. He reaches out to senior citizens in the community to listen to their perspective. Since 2013, Huynh has gone on twice-monthly ride-alongs with police in an effort to solve the city's crime problem.
"In government, you can change things," Huynh said. "And that's what I'm doing."

Utah dance groups teach younger generations about their Filipino heritage
Story and multimedia by DANA IGO
Get a glimpse of Likha's traditional dance costumes
Manny Evangelista grew up in the Bicol region of the Philippines on the tiny palm tree covered island of Burias. In 1979, he moved to California to attend Stanford University on a scholarship. An avid skier, Evangelista took a trip to Utah where he broke his back in a skiing accident. During recovery he took a liking to Salt Lake City and made the valley his home.
Though he has spent the majority of his life in America he still remains close to his Filipino heritage through an appreciation of traditional dance and the Filipino language.
Unlike Evangelista, his children lacked knowledge about their heritage. They had trouble straddling the line between American and Filipino culture. "They had fully integrated but there was something missing," Evangelista said.
In 1996 Evangelista started Likha, the Philippine American Cultural Ensemble of Utah. Likha is a cultural and educational organization focused on teaching children about their ethnic backgrounds as well as teaching the community at large about the Philippines. "There was a need to promote the Filipino culture," he said.
Likha means creation in Filipino, a fitting title given the organization creates a place for Filipino-Americans to learn about where they came from and who they are.
Dance, which is a major facet of the Filipino cultural identity, is Likha's signature program and currently includes 37 performers of all skill levels, many being children and teenagers. The dance group performs at festivals like Living Traditions, an annual event in Salt Lake City showcasing cultural traditions from all over the world. They also perform at school assemblies.
Many former dancers of Likha who have gone on to attend universities across the country travel back to perform. They also teach younger generations about the power of knowing the culture they came from. "They say, 'I'm in this university because of the fact that I've learned to understand who I am,'" Evangelista said.
Like Evangelista, Eunice Jones, 51, grew up in the Philippines. She was the daughter of a farmer and a seamstress who lived in a small village nestled between the mountains and the ocean with their 11 children. In 1986 she moved to Los Angeles for a job opportunity. Later she moved to Las Vegas and finally to Salt Lake City.
Jones, a community leader who heads the Asian Advisory Council and started the Utah Asian Chamber of Commerce, has seen a lack of unity among Filipinos in Utah. She says she wanted to pull them together into one organization. In August 2010 she started the Kulturang Pinoy (meaning Filipino Culture) Ensemble (KPE).
Along with traditional dances, KPE tries to incorporate Tagalog, the root of the Filipino language, into its lessons. Jones doesn't want children to lose the linguistic connection to their families' homeland. She says when her own children speak their native language (they were born in the Philippines but moved to the U.S. before age 5) they sound funny because they have become Americanized.
Agnes Higley, the vice president of KPE, said teaching Filipino culture to children is the main reason why she participates in the dance group. She felt Filipinos weren't represented enough at cultural festivals and KPE was a way to both teach about the culture and give representation in the state.
Currently, KPE has around 35 members composed of children, teenagers and adults. It's grown fast and has garnered interest from the surrounding community. In September 2010, KPE hosted a fundraiser to help purchase costumes and props for its performances. Donors from all cultures were invited to attend and together they raised enough money for KPE to begin purchasing the items it needs to enhance its dances for festivals, weddings and other events.
Filipino dances reflect the different parts of Filipino heritage, Evangelista said. There are dances that hail from certain geographic areas of the Philippines and dances that are performed for special events. Likha performs three types of dance: ethnic, rural and folk.
Evangelista said folk dances are "Hispanized" or influenced by Spain in both music and style. Ethnic dances are traditionally Filipino and reflect the origination of dance in the Philippines. Rural dances incorporate western images and themes.
Costumes are a big part of Filipino dance performances. A video of Likha's 2009 performance shows a dance called Polkabol. In it the women wear sunset colored dresses with long, wide brimmed skirts, which conjure images of toned down flamenco costumes. Underneath they wear petticoats, giving the skirts a full appearance. As the women dance they swing their skirts in fluid motions with one hand as they hold fans in the other.
In the Tinikling dance, some women wear knee-length blue skirts with red tulle layered over the top. Other women wear the colors reversed. They all wear blouses of different colors and styles. The men wear white shirts with black pants.
All of the dances, regardless of origin, express aspects of the homeland and the cultural identity of the Filipino people, providing an opportunity for children and community members alike to learn about the Philippines.

Eunice Jones: 'More than a Realtor'
Story and photo by SHAANTAI LEARY
Dressed in a black suit, with costume pearls draped around her neck, Eunice Jones, 51, spoke recently about her struggles while growing up in the Philippines. "Everyone has a story," Jones said.
There was no electricity, so she and her brothers and sisters would use a gas lamp to do homework. On the weekends, they would do their wash in the river. Her father was an alcoholic who beat her and her siblings often; her mother was a seamstress as well as the homemaker.
"I own[ed] my first pair of shoes when I was 13 years old," Jones said; they were a gift from her sister for her 6th grade graduation.
When she was young, Jones would sell things such as salt in the town market. The money allowed her to help out with school supplies for all 11 children; she was seventh from the oldest. "I was in sales since I was a little girl," Jones said with a chuckle in her voice.
Jones eventually landed a job with the Hyatt hotel in the Philippines. The Hyatt then found her a position in Los Angeles, Calif. She accepted the job offer knowing that she would be leaving behind two young sons, who were 2 and 2 months old at the time, until she could get them visas to enter the U.S.
Every day she would ride the bus two hours from Glendale to L.A. just to get to work. "It was an experience," Jones said.
She would send the money she made back to her family in the Philippines to help them raise her children. It was not until three years later that Jones was able to get her two children visas to bring them to America. By this time she was working for the Hilton in Las Vegas.
She had decided to start looking for a suitable partner so that her children could have a father figure. Jones married a man by the name of Blake Jones and they all moved to Utah in 1995. She decided to take real estate classes and in 1996 she got her license. One year later Better Home and Garden gave her the Rookie of the Year award.
"If you meet 10 people every day, you will grow your database," Jones said.
Tim Ryan, 44, has bought and sold several homes using Jones' assistance. He met her in 2005 while touring a home for sale. Ryan said he ended up purchasing the home because of Jones.
Currently, he is selling his home in Olympus Cove; Jones is the Realtor. Ryan likes to use her services because she has a "pocket full of clients." He described her as being very persistent and realistic.
"It's never a letdown, that's what I like about her," Ryan said. He feels that Jones is "more than a Realtor." Ryan and his wife now have dinner with Jones and have developed a more personal relationship.

Eunice Jones: hard work changes life from rags to riches
Story and photo by LAUREN CARTER
Eunice Jones received her first pair of shoes at 13 years old. They were a gift from her sister, in honor of Jones graduating from the sixth grade at her school in the Philippines. Little did they know, Jones would later receive multiple awards and hold several positions across different business areas in Salt Lake City.
Eunice Jones at the University of Utah.
Jones grew up being the seventh oldest of 11 children, in a very poor family. She was raised in a house that had no running water or electricity, and had to boil water before being able to drink it.
"Food was very, very sparse," Jones said. "I never saw frozen food until I came to America."
At a young age Jones started working for money. She would clean her grandparent's house every weekend for 25 cents. She went on to start selling bags of salt for 25 cents and 50 cents at the local market. And during summer school Jones sold bags of fried dough dipped in sugar to her classmates.
Jones saved up her hard earned money in a piggy bank. And at the end of the summer she had enough money to buy school supplies for her siblings and herself.
"My parents could not give us anything but education," Jones said.
Jones' three older brothers and her older sister moved to Manila, Philippines, on scholarships. They gave all of their incomes to Jones' parents, which eventually brought the rest of her family to live with them in a two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment, in Manila.
"Life changed when I went to Manila," Jones said. For the first time in her life, Jones' family had running water, television, electricity and public transportation to get to school.
Jones' sister sent her through college in Manila. She graduated in the top-10 of her class and was given an apprenticeship at a local press.
Jones later became the single mother of two children. And in 1986, the Los Angeles Hyatt offered Jones a working visa. She left her sons with family and had to leave the Philippines within 30 days of the Hyatt's offer.
"I only had a suitcase, $50 in my pocket and a dream," Jones said.
Jones worked for the Los Angeles Hyatt for three years before being able to obtain visas for her two young sons. In 1989, Jones went home to bring her children to live in Las Vegas, where she was working at the Hilton.
Jones got married in 1993 to Blake Jones and two years later the family moved to Utah. Eunice Jones got a job at the Salt Lake City Hilton, where the family lived in the general manager's suite for two months before buying a house.
"When we lived in the Hilton, it was weird because everyone was cleaning our room," said A.J. Jones, Eunice Jones' 24-year-old son.
After Eunice Jones had worked for the Hilton for one year, she said that her work was not challenging and decided to change her career.
She started attending real estate school at night and graduated in 1996. She began working seven days a week as a Realtor. And one year later, Eunice Jones received the Rookie of the Year Honor in real estate.
"If you meet 10 people everyday, you will grow your database," Eunice Jones said. "My production just started to rise."
Eunice and Blake Jones opened their own Re/Max office in 2003. They opened it with one Realtor and it grew to be 70 Realtors and independent contractors, before the market crashed.
In addition to her work as a real estate agent, Eunice Jones also plays a large role in the Asian community of Utah. She was the first women president of the Philippine-American Association during her 1999-2001 terms. And she is a co-founder of the Utah Asian Chamber of Commerce.
"I am so honored and happy to be part of this community," Eunice Jones said.
Jones is currently serving on the Asian Advisory Council and recently gathered members of the community to start a dance group that performs traditional Filipino dancing. Her hope is that it will help keep the culture alive for the different generations of Filipinos who are in Utah.
"She just does it to help people out," A.J. Jones said. "It is very honorable work that she does."
Eunice Jones would like to retire from real estate in ten years. Her goal is to buy land in the Philippines so she could live there six months out of the year. "She moved here just for my brother and I. She misses her life and she sacrificed a lot for us," A.J. Jones said, in support of his mother's dream of returning home.

American dream true for Utah woman who went from poverty to community leader
Eunice Jones speaks with University of Utah journalism students about her life.

As a child growing up poor in the Philippines, Eunice Jones paid for school supplies by selling fried dough rolled in sugar to the local townspeople.
Now Jones, 51, sells properties as an associate broker of a Re/Max Masters franchise in Salt Lake City.
How she moved from living in a hut in a seaside village to living in Utah as a distinguished member of the community is a true story of success that begins at her roots.
"My parents always told us that they could not give us anything but education," Jones said.
As the seventh of 11 children, she was used to feeling hungry and going to school barefoot. Her family's home had no electricity or running water and she often did school work by the dim light of a gas lamp. Yet her parents made sure she and her siblings studied hard and went to school every day.
Her parents' strong emphasis on education pushed Jones to excel and in 1980 she graduated in the top-10 of her class at the University of Manila with a degree in marketing.
In 1986 she was offered an opportunity to work in the United States as a catering manager at the former Hyatt Wilshire in Los Angeles.
Jones, a single mother, had to leave her sons, Thomas, 2, and Andrew, 2 months, with her mother and sister in order to move to the U.S.
Even though she had to part with her children, the chance to come to America was something she couldn't refuse. With the help of her friends and family, she scraped together the money for airfare and got on a plane to California.
"I only had a suitcase, $50 in my pocket and a dream of a better life," Jones said about her arrival in the U.S.
Los Angeles was like nothing she'd experienced before. She saw a washing machine for the first time. Her friend's mother had to help her figure out how to use it and it didn't turn out well –  all of her clothes shrank. Until she got her first paycheck, Jones had to borrow everything from friends.
She moved to Las Vegas to work at the Las Vegas Hilton in 1989. It was there that she felt secure enough in her job and situation that she obtained visas to bring her sons from the Philippines to join her.
In 1995 Jones remarried and moved to Utah with her new husband and children. She was hired by the Salt Lake City Hilton, but the work wasn't challenging so she took real estate classes at night in order to switch careers. A year later she received the Better Homes & Gardens Rookie of the Year award. She opened her own Re/Max franchise in 2003.
When she and her husband divorced in 2009 she sold her franchise to Re/MAX Masters, where she now works as an associate broker.
Aside from real estate, Jones also devoted considerable time and energy to the Asian community of Utah.
She is a leader in the Utah Filipino community and organizes the Utah Asian Festival. In 2005 Jones and Judge Raymond Uno founded the Utah Asian Chamber of Commerce, which helps bring Asian businesses together throughout the state. Jones is also head of the Asian Advisory Council, which is a part of the Utah Office of Ethnic Affairs.
Jones' story is a testament to the American dream and she has no regrets about coming to the U.S.
"My lifestyle [in the Philippines] was not as free as it is now," she said.
Her son, Andrew "A.J." Jones, 24, feels the same way. He has visited the Philippines twice with his mother and says it was a humbling experience.
"It was definitely a culture shock for me to see 12 people living in a small home, or in their shop/home on the side of the road," he said.
A.J., who is currently working on a bachelor's degree in education at the University of Utah, also attributes who he is today to his mother. In high school, when he wanted to play sports, his mother would tell him grades came first. Now he balances sports and school as a Little League coach at Olympus High School. He says his mother set the example for making education his focus.
"She has taught me to be very passionate and to want something," he said. "She wanted a better life for us and she knew this was the only way."

Very well-done shot, the focus is perfect and you captured well the feeling that they've seen a lot in their lives.
Great expression, and the choice of colors and light works well. I like this shot.
I can't believe this scored so low. The decision is clear, the shot well-composed, and the key elements of the photo highlighted well. Apparently that's just me though. Sorry about your undeserved placing.

One of the best of the drink vs. drive lot. I like what you have, maybe it would have been good to have the focus on the key bowl instead of the hand....not sure though.
I love the golden colors of this, and the clarity is very good.
Sharpest focus seems to be on her shirt, not her face. But a nice shot anyway, I especially like all the colors.
DOF is maybe a little shallow, I'd like to see a bit more definition in the features of the hand. Well-composed shot though.
Hey! I had this idea too. No complaints about meeting the challenge for this one. I think yours will do better though. Composition might be helped by taking a little off the bottom, unless you had a pressing reason to keep all of that leg.
You captured the feeling well. Might be a little more interesting picture without the subjects dead center, but this works OK.
Nice idea. Might have been better with the focus more on the checkerboard and the pointing hand, the girl in the foreground's not really the most important part of this picture.

I first met Juliana in June 2012 in Kisumu in Kenya. I remember her clearly jumping onto the bus and immediately radiating that warm and friendly smile of hers, she has an infectious laugh and I just could not help warming to her immediately. At 19 she brought with her all the freshness of youth.
We drove down to Homabay on a site visit and we had time to chat and for her to tell me her story. Julianna was born with HIV in 1992, she lost both her parents by the age of four and was lucky to still have her siblings. Her brother brought her up. At ten and very ill she was diagnosed with HIV and started treatment. The day I met her she was still on the first combination of medicines that included Stavudine. Throughout her teenage years Juliana struggled with her health and with school. Stigma and discrimination at school caused her misery that impacted her health. Juliana is strong and she decided very young that she would be an advocate for young people living with HIV. She has done so much already for children living with HIV and speaks out for those who don't have a voice. As a teenager she would walk to different school and talk to young people and teachers and educate them on HIV and against stigma.
Stavudine is a nasty medicine that has highly toxicities, WHO no longer recommends it in the treatment of adults. Juliana and I talk of this and she agreed to go and see her doctor so that she could switch to a better medicine. Juliana did the switch but as with all treatment switches, the body takes a while to get used to the new compounds. Juliana had to stay home for a while and away from work. I helped Juliana with a small amount of money to get her back up on her feet and to work.
Sometimes something so small can change everything.
Juliana later moved to Nairobi and took up her job with NEPHAK where she works today while studying part time. Juliana has lots of plans for work but also in her private life with her boyfriend and friends. Today she is a role model, not just in Kenya but around the world. She attends many international events and talks out so that others understand. Juliana is an inspiration to and she is my partner on the ground for this initiative. When we met Catherine in Kibera in March 2014, she was able to capture her imagination with dreams of the future. Juliana also went to the school and paid Catherine's school fees and bought workbooks with our funds from 'Painting for an education'.

Having made the big investment to provide unfettered wireless connectivity in all its public spaces, the Art Institute of Chicago has now geared up to digitally activate its visitors and their experience of the museum. The prioritization process and resource allocation was both energizing and agonizing, touching a broad array of possible technologies, and an equally diverse range of attitudes held by stakeholders about what usage should be supported. Initially, free wireless offerings include the Art Institute of Chicago Tours app with turn-by-turn wayfinding support which is achieved by leveraging indoor positioning services. Wi-Fi as a utility opens the future up for other content delivery and of course, full access to social media channels. This article provides a window on what decisions were been made, what went into those deliberations, what has been deployed, and indications of future developments.


Anonymous Theatre loves keeping secrets. One actor shared a few.
A few weeks ago, I met and interviewed an actor at a coffee shop near Waterfront Park. They were charismatic, stylish and radiated supreme confidence and generosity. I would have relished the chance to find the right words to capture their personality, to make readers feel as if they had been sitting at our table with us.
But I can't do that. I can't tell you their name. I can't describe their clothes. I can't say whether they are a woman, a man or non-binary. Divulging those details would spoil the surprise of their performance in the Anonymous Theatre Company's upcoming one-night production of William Shakespeare's hippie-before-they-were-hippies romantic comedy A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Anonymously, they twirl: William Blake, "Oberon, Titania and Puck with Fairies Dancing," circa 1786, watercolor and graphite on paper, 18.7 x 26.5 inches, Tate Britain. London.
Anonymous was founded in 2002 and has since tackled myriad theatrical landmarks, from Arthur Miller's The Crucible to Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest. Yet while the plays they produce are often familiar, the way they produce them is revolutionary—until the curtain rises, the cast of each production remains a secret, even to the actors involved.
That makes Anonymous a potential nightmare for an arts journalist. Yet learning about the company from the actor I met (who shall henceforth be referred to as "Lysander," the name of their Midsummer character) turned out to be an intoxicating journey into a corner of Portland theatre that is mysterious and more than a little bonkers, yet thoroughly entrancing.
The secrets begin with the audition.
While Anonymous permits its actors to tell one person that they are in the show (so they have someone to run lines with), Lysander chose not to tell their partner, since they too work in theater and could conceivably be involved with Anonymous.
Rehearsals and performances are a logistical nightmare.
Anonymous hookup: John Simmons, "Hermia and Lysander: A Midsummer Night's Dream," 1870, watercolor heightened with gouache on paper laid down on canvas; 35 x 29 inches, private collection.
More daunting are the play's romantic scenes, which require Lysander the character to pursue two different women, Hermia and Helena. To insure that no boundaries are breached improperly during the show, Lysander the actor decided to contact the performers playing Hermia and Helena (via an intermediary) and ask what kinds of physical contact that will and won't be willing to accept.
Opening night will show off Anonymous' gift for artful revelations.
In true Anonymous fashion, performance night will be an intricate dance of evasion. The actors will show up posing as audience members, which means no costumes ("I'm wearing jeans and boots and a shirt and there's jacket that's my favorite jacket—it's my feeling good jacket," Lysander says).
No one can know exactly what will happen when Lysander says that first line ("You have her father's love, Demetrius. Let me have Hermia's"). But that's the point—Anonymous is a company built on leaps of faith. Which prompts the question: Would Lysander take that leap once more and join another Anonymous production?


A juice fast is a great way to detoxify your body. The juice of fruits and vegetables is filled with healing, cleansing properties that allow the body to gently and safely detoxify. Juice fasting has become an effective steppingstone to water fasting which is more difficult and only for very healthy people. Juice fasting has a greater ability to encourage healing compared to fasting on water. Juice fasting cleanses the body while supplying a dramatic increase in vitamins, minerals and enzymes.
There is a two-fold benefit to juice fasting: increased nutrients from the fruits and removal of toxins by providing live enzymes to clean up the body.
A popular juice fast usually last three days, although you can choose to fast from one day to seven days. Anything more than that, it is advisable to contact your doctor as every body's health is different.
Another important factor is how much juice you should drink each day. In simple, the amount you drink should be based on how intense your cleansing is. Drinking small amounts supplies small calories and drinking a large amount supplies much more calories. The more intense the detoxification, the greater the discomfort.
Juices should be fresh and can include apples, carrots, barley grass, wheat grass and other such items. Also, one can complement with herbal tea and lemon and honey drinks.
A 3-day fast specifically could include an apple juice based diet on one day and a carrot and ginger juice on the second or third day. Another option could be one type of juice throughout the three days with a big bowl of salad at 6pm daily.
The beauty of juice fasting and detoxification is that you can make it how you want so long as you follow the basic foundations of a detox. You can choose the juice and the frequency at which you take it as well as whether you complement it with something else or not.
It is important to note that diabetics are usually told to avoid juice fasting because of blood sugar problems. Severely underweight individuals should also avoid such juice detoxes. All people with health challenges should check with their physician before detoxing.
When you wake up, drink a full glass of lukewarm lemon drink. You do not have to heat it; room temperature is good.

Embedded invoice provider AREX Markets sells Finnish unit to Swedish financial institution Svea Bank
AREX Markets works with fintech intermediaries like neobanks to screen SMEs for possible 24-hour loans, intended to cover cash flow while a business waits for receivables to be paid.
Callum Cyrus 05 December 2022
AREX Markets, a Barcelona-based embedded startup finance startup that allows SMEs to source next-day loans while they wait for cash receipts to be fulfilled, is announcing the sale of its overseas subsidiary in Finland to Sweden's Svea Bank.
At the moment, AREX Markets has around 1,200 Finnish customers and partnership deals, which will be transferred over to Svea Bank's register once the acquisition takes effect.
AREX's team say they want to double down on the introduction of embeddable financing in other European markets, such as the UK, aiming to sell the instant short-term debt model on to third party fintechs who can use the service to bring in more customers, such as neobanks, accounting software and enterprise resource planning.
Pasi Väre, Svea's country manager for Finland, said the acquisition was also being made in response to considerable growth in business transactions across Svea's banking portfolio.
"In addition, the deal is pleasant for us at Svea because the focus of our activities is to help partners and customers succeed - offering AREX's partners and customers a wider range of services is exactly that," Vare added.
The Helsinki-based operation was one of three outposts for AREX Markets, which is now left with its Barcelona headquarters and a branch office in London. Its core invoice financing product is augmented by custom APIs that allow the lender to screen an SME's finances, as well as fielding credit risks and handling debt collection automatically.

$300 Additional Unemployment Benefits: When Can One Expect The Payment?
On August 8, President Donald Trump signed an executive order that provides $400 extra benefits. As per the new order, the federal government would provide $300 additional unemployment benefits per week, and the states are responsible for contributing the remaining $100.
While the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) would contribute an extra $300, on behalf of the federal government, states were given the option to choose how they would pay the remaining $100 and decide if they would even pay it.
Note that the $300 federal unemployment benefits are not automatic. States must apply through FEMA for a grant. So, which states have applied for a grant with FEMA?
In this article, we have listed which states have received approval to offer $300 additional unemployment benefits. We have also listed the benefit amount each state would provide.
List Of States Approved By FEMA
Below is the list of states that have applied and have been approved by FEMA.
FEMA approved Alabama's application on August 21. Based on the Department Of Labor (DOL) and FEMA estimations, the Alabama Department of Labor stated, "The eligible people could expect to receive the payment in approximately 3 weeks."
Though Alaska received FEMA's approval on August 23, the qualified people won't receive the payment immediately. According to the state's Department of Labor and Workforce Development, Alaskans will have to wait for at least 6 six to 8 weeks to receive the benefits.
3. Arizona
Arizona, which received FEMA's approval on August 15, is the first state to give out $300 additional unemployment benefits. The state has distributed an estimated $201 million to eligible Arizonans.

Who Qualifies For $300 Additional Unemployment Benefits?
To qualify for $300 additional unemployment benefits, one must receive at least $100 benefits per week through any of the following programs.
Regular unemployment benefits
Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation
Pandemic Unemployment Assistance or any other federal pandemic assistance program
How Long Would a $300 Additional Unemployment Benefits Program Last?
Though the exact expiration date is unknown, the new order is expected to end when FEMA expends 444 billion from Disaster Relief Fund (DRF), or DRF's total balance reduces to $25 billion.
Expiration of $600 weekly benefits had taken unemployed Americans by storm. But with the new order, people can receive extra amounts on top of their regular benefits and pay their medical, housing bills, etc. for a few weeks.

Department of Genetics - L1CAM Mutation Database
Protein domains
L1CAM Mutation Web Page
L1CAM is a neuronal cell adhesion molecule with important functions in the development of the nervous system. The gene encoding L1CAM is located near the telomere of the long arm of the X chromosome at Xq28. Mutations in L1CAM can lead to L1 syndrome, an X-linked recessive disease with an incidence of one in every 30,000 males. The phenotypic spectrum includes X-linked Hydrocephalus, also referred to as Hydrocephalus due to Stenosis of the Aqueduct of Sylvius (HSAS, MIM #307000), MASA syndrome standing for Mental Retardation, Aphasia, Shuffling gait and Adducted thumbs (MIM #303350), X-linked complicated hereditary spastic paraplegia type 1 (SPG1, MIM # 303350) and X-linked complicated corpus callosum agenesis (X-linked ACC, MIM # 304100). Clinical variability is large between and sometimes within families.

News Briefs: Get your thinking caps on at re-purposing workshop
Hadi Gurton and Robin Williamson from Sustainable Whanganui.
Invite to imagine
Sustainable Whanganui is inviting people to get imaginative in a re-purposing workshop at the Whanganui Resource Recovery Centre on July 15. It runs in the Harakeke Room from 11am to 3pm. Participants are asked to bring food for a shared lunch. Resources provided and donations appreciated.
Woman injured
A woman suffered serious injuries when her car rolled into a ditch at Fordell yesterday morning. The accident happened on Warrengate Rd near the intersection with State Highway 3. Emergency services were alerted about 11am and the woman was taken by ambulance to Whanganui Hospital.
Fire and Emergency crews put out a blaze in the ceiling of a Marton home early yesterday morning. The occupants of the property reported the fire around 3.50am and two fire crews from Marton rushed to the scene. The fire circulated in the ceiling and the wall cavity and took about 15 minutes for crews to extinguish. A Fire and Emergency spokesman said when fire crews arrived all occupants were outside the property and there were no reported injuries.

Geography and Sport, Coaching and Physical Education, 2014
"One of the most valuable parts of my experience at Brookes has been the range of opportunities and ideas that I have been exposed to as a result of my involvement in the charity Asylum-Welcome "
Anna McGovern has always been fascinated with cultures, aspects of human geography and the ways in which they have shaped the world.
Brookes seemed an obvious choice, firstly, the duality of subjects (there aren't many places where you can study geography with sport!), and it was my second stab at University, so it made sense to study somewhere closer to home, commuting for the second and third years. This idea was abandoned after having so much fun in my first year and I've loved every minute of living here for the past three years! Oxford is quirky yet friendly and small enough to cycle everywhere. It is also a great hub for International Development and I've enjoyed various talks and conferences at the University. My lecturer, organized for me to have a look around OXFAM HQ. It was such an inspiring visit that I'd like to make a career out of tackling the challenge of poverty and inequality.
One of the most valuable parts of my experience at Brookes has been the range of opportunities and ideas that I have been exposed to as a result of my involvement in the charity Asylum-Welcome. I started volunteering in my first year and over the past three years have provided support, motivation and advice to teenagers affected by the process of seeking asylum. I've met some incredible volunteers and young people whose stories, backgrounds and experiences have inspired and encouraged me to consider a career in the charity sector.
Last summer, I took up a place on the Department of International Development's Citizen Service program, spending 10 weeks in a rural village in Southern India alongside Indian and British volunteers on a health and sanitation project. I gained practical skills and knowledge about grassroots development which formed the basis of my dissertation.
I've loved tailoring my degree to suit my interests, applying academic theory from both disciplines, to current and topical issues, such as the ongoing pacification process in Rio de Janeiro's favelas. Using geographical research, analytical tools and a Sports Development module I was able to approach the assignment with insight and perspective, and develop new skills.
I had genuine support and encouragement from my lecturers, specifically Sarah Cant and Marion Markwick, who showed interest in my ideas and were extremely supportive when applying for voluntary roles and work experience.
Being a member of Brookes Netball has made my university life so much fun. I've been a member of the committee as Social Secretary and was also Vice President. Not only have I improved as a player and developed skills such as management and event organization, but I've made friends for life. One piece of advice for new students – definitely join a sports team!
In all, changing courses, university and coming to Brookes has been the best decision of my life. I would encourage everyone to make the most of the wonderful staff, sports facilities, organizations and individuals that make up the lovely city of Oxford.

WITJIRA NATIONAL PARK DRAFT MANAGEMENT PLAN
By Coober Pedy Regional Times on October 3, 2008
Witjira National Park draft management plan released A draft management plan for Witjira National Park in the far north of South Australia has been released for public comment.
Witjira National Park near Oodnadatta
Trevor Naismith from the Department for Environment and Heritage (DEH) said the draft plan reflects the Indigenous Land Use Agreement and Co-management Agreement signed by the Minister for Environment and Conservation with traditional owners in August 2007.
"Witjira National Park has been subject to joint management arrangements with DEH since 1995," he said. "It is now a co-managed park and under the control of the Witjira National Park Co-management Board.
"It's important that we have a clear plan to ensure the park is managed in a way that respects both contemporary and traditional culture, knowledge and skills. "DEH worked for over two years with the previous Witjira Board of Management to prepare the plan.
"The shared vision for management means that the co-managers can respect and promote indigenous culture and conserve the outstanding natural values of the park, while encouraging ongoing visitor access.
"It's a further positive step towards reconciliation with the area's traditional owners, the Lower Southern Arrernte and Wangkangurru people, represented by the Irrwanyere Aboriginal Corporation."
Mr Naismith explained that another important outcome of the planning process was the development of the Dalhousie Springs Zone.
"Witjira National Park is a unique area containing several cultural and natural features of national conservation significance and tourism interest, including the Dalhousie Great Artesian Basin Mound Springs complex," he said.
"To continue to protect the 120 or so thermal springs in the Dalhousie complex, which are home to unique species of fish such as the Dalhousie hardyhead and other rare aquatic and bird life, we have established a five kilometre no-mining zone around all known spring vents and spring tails, and a buffer around the outflow tail of the mound springs complex.
"This area is over 50,000 hectares in size and will protect the outstanding natural, cultural and tourism values of the springs.
"As a positive outcome for the park, the development of the Dalhousie Springs Zone can be compared to the creation of the Coongie Lakes National Park in protecting a key arid landscape."
Witjira National Park is an area of 7,700 square kilometres located in the far north of South Australia, about 100 kilometres north of Oodnadatta.
In 2004 the Government of South Australia introduced innovative legislation to amend the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972 to enable the Minister for Environment and Conservation to enter into comanagement agreements over National Parks and Conservation Parks with relevant Aboriginal groups.
Witjira is the fourth park in South Australia to be co-managed by DEH and Aboriginal people under this legislation, the others being the Mamungari Conservation Park, the Vulkathunha-Gammon Ranges National Park and the Ngaut Ngaut Conservation Park.
On Thursday 11 September 2008, Mr Naismith attended a ceremony at Dalhousie Springs at which the Federal Court handed down a Consent Determination over the Witjira National Park, as part of the overall settlement of native title claims for the area.
"DEH hopes that the provision of co-management or other arrangements over parks will make a significant contribution to the South Australia's Strategic Plan goal to have 75 per cent of native title claims resolved in their entirety by 2014," he said.
The draft management plan is available for public comment until 18 December 2008.
The plan is available from the DEH Information Line (Level 1, 100 Pirie Street, Adelaide; email
dehinformation@saugov.sa.gov.au; telephone 8204 1910), the DEH Port Augusta Office (9 Mackay
Street), the Alice Springs Town Council Civic Centre (Todd Street), the Roxby Downs Council (Richardson Place) and the Coober Pedy District Council (Hutchinson Street).
The plan may also be viewed at, and downloaded from

HomeReMixesStar Ocean: The Second Story "Into Your Kamikaze"
ReMix: Star Ocean: The Second Story "Into Your Kamikaze" 7:15
By Blake Perdue
classical orchestral duration-long
Arranging the music of one song...
"KA.MI.KA.ZE"
Primary Game: Star Ocean: The Second Story (Sony, 1998, PS1), music by Motoi Sakuraba
The opening of Blake's latest orchestral arrangement from Star Ocean: The Second Story reminds me of the final piece from Goldenthal's Titus score; very grand, deliberate, hopeful chord progression. Things bust out at 0'56", though, as Blake mixes up-tempo pieces with flowing legato passages rather adeptly. Mr. Perdue gives us some insight into his creative process:
"It certainly felt like the last remix I got accepted here was a major let down, and as one put it in the Chrono Symphonic thread: "Here's a tip, guys: Orchestral remixes can have power, too. They don't HAVE to be boring as hell." He may not have been directly referring to my Door to the End of Time, but if he was he was certainly correct. So I've tried to make improvements upon my technique if you wanna call it that, and make sure my fake orchestral is worth listening to. Hopefully people will not say "Ugh, ANOTHER orchestral remix." to this one, but if they listen to it and it is just another one, well, I am always trying to improve anyway. I've forever disgraced my free sample using ways by using an EDIROL clarinet sample, because the squidfont one or any other free one online is just way too damn honky, and provides no flexiblity or textural relevance. (Is textural a word?) However, the rest of the samples in this ReMix are free and mostly of the florestan and squidfont department."
I liked his last mix, personally, but I can see where this mix would perhaps be seen as a bit more exciting and powerful and what not. It's certainly a wonderful example of what can be done orchestrally with primarily free soundfonts. It's also downright epic; at over seven minutes, it packs quite a lot of compositional punch, but nothing feels superfluous or repetitive. There's enough transitions and dynamic work to fill out two shorter mixes, really, but Blake's coagulated that into a single monolithic arrangement that expands outwards and upwards from the source material. Andy sez:
"Considering you're still working with not-so-great samples you do a FANTASTIC job of orchestrating things, and your production is very good. The one section that is problematic in regards to sample quality is 2:29 to 2:43 - things just sound kinda fake there. You could have done with a little more reverb perhaps to cover that up. The middle section leading up to 3:50 was excellent. Really, the arrangement as a whole is VERY well-structured and aside from the abrupt transition towards the beginning, things flow extremely smoothly. This is probably my favorite work of yours so far. You did a fantastic job on nearly every aspect of this remix. Any complaints I have are rather minimal."
I'd agree that this is Blake's most elaborate, intricate, and mature work to date, and he started off pretty strong to begin with, so that bold claim carries some real weight. Like a good salad dressing should be, this ReMix is robust, complex yet subtle, and tastes great with romaine lettuce, chick peas and copious crutons. Except for that last bit. Excellent, large-scale orchestral maneuvers in the light from BP.
(Lyrics) Serotriptomine
Holy mother of ******. I had just brought up my phone to text someone while reading the history behind this and your improvement. When at 00:55ish it smacked me in the face with my sub-woofer flaring. I jumped out of my seat at the suddenness of your change.
I am in love with the flares of the flute, and this "fake" orchestral business is a load of bullhonkey.
There is no such thing as "fake" when it comes to music. It's either Created and Produced Live for you, or it's Created and Produced perfectly via tools for you. Either way, no matter what anyone tells you about your work, you know, and everyone else does, that you make songs for your own tastes.
And you improve the way of doing such things from the feedback given by persons that share the same interests as you do. Thus, giving you more ways to satisfy your own dreams and imaginations. I applaud all artists whether "fake" or not, on any website, but in particular, this one.
Games stay close to your heart, whether you like to admit it or not.
And the same goes with music.
(I'm not qualified to judge your work, this is how much -i- Enjoyed this song.)

It is my opinion that it would take a cruel and uniquely untalented bastard to manage making a Motoi Sakuraba score sound terrible. Thankfully, that special someone has yet to grace OCRemix.
Nice orchestral piece with a ton of variety. And the ending, ah the ending. Superb, well-paced climax to an equally superb and well-paced mix. *loves it*.
Samples are a bit weak, but GREAT sequencing and production on them. With some pro level samples, specifically the strings and bassoon, this would be a completely beastly track. As is, it's not slouching at all, and has a lot of exciting moments interspersed with some calmer ones, and good transitions between them.
There is plenty of good development as well, and though the track is long, it never feels drawn out for the sake of length.
Fans of orchestra will love this one; it's exciting, dramatic, and it's obvious a lot of care went into it. Nice work.
I'm curious - what songs were used to make this mix? I like it alot, but I'm having a hard time recognizing them (Mostly because I didn't get far in SO:TSS)
Though it's listed in the site now, it doesnt seem to direct link to anything.

It's definitely better quality than most Chrono Symphonic, but I don't like the source material at all. Even though there is mucho expansion from that, I know that every second that it is going to go back to that theme that I don't like. In my opinionz, if you want non-boring orchestral with a good tune, check out Russel Cox's EVO mix. Probably one of the only orchestral mixes I have on the site. I like Nigel Simmons's Castlevania 4 arrangement too, but not as much as the EVO one, on a personal level.
Back to this mix:
Very nice ending.
One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite PlayStation RPGs. I totally dig this ReMix. Has plenty of time to variate and develop. I wish I could have a higher bitrate version.. would do wonders on improving the sound quality. The instrumentation and arrangement both are very well executed.. awesome. i'd like to hear more SO2 ReMixes around here.

There's some sort of issue where the database says 7:19 whereas the track itself is 7:17-long, likely having to do with the VBR encoding. The track clearly ends properly, so why would you complain about a missing 2 seconds that don't matter?
Actually, there are 2 seconds of silence at the beginning of the song so the actual last 2 seconds are getting cut off. I've determined that it's some kind of problem with iTunes because it works just fine in other media players. Thanks anyway
Liontamer
For whatever reason' date=' I can't get the last 2 seconds of this mix. No matter which mirror I use I always end up with 7:17 instead of 7:19. It's kind of really annoying. WTF?[/quote']

One of the best orchestral arrangements on OCR. Although coming in at over 7 minutes, it absolutely never gets boring and/or repititive.
For some weird reason, the part starting at 3:51 reminds me of Zeldo. Dunno why.
Kagato
I rather like it. Now if you could only make something similar for Incarnation of the Devil, that would be splendid.
Hawkwing
Yeah...amazing.
Ninja-san
Damn. This owns. Magnificent work

There's just some that make you say, "Yes." This is one of them.
