As a housing participant who recently enrolled in our job training program, Reginald was facing many obstacles to graduating. Up against a grueling winter and long commute, part of what helped him stay determined was being able to count on at least one nutritious meal each day at Inspiration Cafe. Particularly grateful for the bagged lunches provided by our volunteers, he recalls their importance in helping him get through the week, giving him the energy to focus on his goals.

One of IMU Cares' main initiatives is Chariofare, an annual flagship fundraising project initiated in 2012. Comprising of two major events, a Charity Run and a Carnival, Chariofare originated with the idea of running for a cause while raising funds to support the less fortunate. Uniquely designed to encourage social entrepreneurship among students, Chariofare is led by a dedicated team of first year students with the support of IMU staff as advisors. Each year, a group of 40 student committee members motivate and mobilise over 380 other student volunteers to make Chariofare a success.
Over the past 6 years, Chariofare has raised more than RM1 million, with the support of over 8,000 runners and 333 sponsors. All proceeds of Chariofare were donated to 19 beneficiaries of choice according to their needs, which benefited at least 5,000 individuals.
Stroke Rehabilitation Programme under the National Stroke Association of Malaysia (NASAM), which was attended by 1,500 people. The hospice centres at Penang and Negeri Sembilan were also funded a total sum of RM140,000 to provide palliative care services for terminally ill patients in their own homes.
Medical fund for underprivileged children (RM40,000 to benefit 78 children and their family from Dignity for Children Foundation (DFC).
Rebuilding of a burned down children's home (Rumah Victory at Taman Overseas Union, Kuala Lumpur, which benefitted 22 children).
Provide additional hygiene facilities for children's homes (two additional bathrooms for Rumah Titian Kaseh at Titiwangsa, Kuala Lumpur, to accommodate the needs of over 50 children).
Expansion of cooking facilities for a charity home (Home of Peace at Taman Overseas Union, Kuala Lumpur, which houses 17 underprivileged girls).
Support the education fees of children (benefitted 109 children aged 5 to 22 years old at Ti-Ratana Welfare Society in Kuala Lumpur).
Purchase of rehabilitation and medical equipment for disabled children's home (benefitted 140 children at Pusat Penjagaan Kanak-kanak Cacat Taman Megah).
Under Humanitarian Aid, funds were collected and used to support disaster relief projects (such as the Flood Relief Programme at Kuala Krai, Kelantan that delivered urgent aid to affected 800 families in five villages. Other relief programmes included the Haiyan Typhoon in the Philippines in 2013, the Nepal Earthquake in 2015, Chennai Flood in 2015, and the Penang Flood in 2017).
The sustainability of Chariofare stems from the dedication of the IMU students and staff, and the continued support from returning groups of runners from the community and the corporate sector. Chariofare is a recognised brand by the community as a champion of humanitarian aid that encompasses healthy lifestyle integrated with fun for all ages. Commitment of our staff and students combined with engaging the community and smart partnership is the key to our success.

Fayetteville Woodpeckers Adding Daktronics Video Board to Minor League Ballpark
BROOKINGS, S.D. – Dec. 17, 2018 – Daktronics (NASDAQ-DAKT) of Brookings, South Dakota, has partnered with the Fayetteville Woodpeckers to design, manufacture and install a new LED video board at their minor league ballpark in Fayetteville, North Carolina. The installation took place late in the fall of 2018 to be ready for the 2019 baseball season.
"Our stadium experience will extend well beyond baseball," said Fayetteville Woodpeckers President Mark Zarthar. "The Woodpeckers are committed to providing a unique, high-energy and high-quality occasion for our fans. Technology is a major component of that experience. Daktronics is the industry leader in outfitting entertainment venues with state-of-the-art displays. The dimensions of our LED video board are unprecedented for a stadium this size and will elevate a minor league park to a world-class entertainment venue."
The video board measures approximately 25 feet high by 70 feet wide to bring a larger-than-life experience to Woodpecker fans. It features a 15HD pixel layout to create vibrant imagery with wide angle visibility to appeal to fans in every seat of the ballpark.
The display is capable of variable content zoning allowing it to show one large image or multiple windows of digital content. It can show live video, instant replays, up-to-the-minute statistics, graphics and animations. It can also help highlight Woodpecker sponsors throughout every game and other special events.
"The new Fayetteville minor league ballpark is going to be a great new facility and we're excited to be a part of the project," said Corey Williams, Daktronics sales representative. "The video board will provide Woodpecker fans with years of entertainment and we can't wait to see it fired up in time for the first season."
Daktronics show control system was included with the installation to provide a powerful, easy-to-use solution for operating the display to provide a desirable and engaging game-day experience for fans.

Q: How to hide the toolbar in Chrome for Android tablets for a 100% high website I am trying to make a web application that is 100% of the screen width and 100% of the screen height, with a 16:9 aspect ratio. It would be awesome if I would be able to view this website fullscreen on my tablet, but unfortunately the on-screen toolbar takes up a large amount of space, making my website display neither in full height nor in full width:

Now I know that since recently, it is possible to hide the scrollbar by scrolling the page down (source). However, since my web application is 100% high, I am unable to hide the toolbar this way.
I was wondering whether anybody had another idea as to how I would be able to hide the toolbar. A CSS-only (or perhaps some HTML meta tag unknown to me) method is preferred, but I will settle for a technique using JavaScript as well.

A: In the end I fixed the problem by adding the possibility to scroll to my document. I positioned the body element fixed so that I am now able to hide the toolbar by swiping up but not moving any content. I admit it's a bit of a hack.
html {
    padding-bottom: 1000px;
}

body {
    position: fixed;
    left: 0;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0;
}

A: Here is a JS option that might solve your issue.

Last Saturday I apologized for not having a picture of hats in action. My sister-in-law has remedied that situation.
I think they rank right up there as two of the best knitwear models ever. They also provide great quality control, as they live in one of the colder quadrants of Canada. Chances are pretty good that there will be more hats (and mittens, and scarves) in their future.

The liberal network shows were all busy Sunday morning pushing accusations and speculation about President Trump and his adviser Jared Kushner. Their discussion was driven by more anonymous sources telling The Washington Post that Kushner tried to set up a backchannel discussion between Trump and the Russians to talk about Syria. CNN even accused the action of being "treasonous." The hysteria was also present on NBC's Meet the Press, but theirs was shattered by The Wall Street Journal's Kimberley Strassel after she introduced facts to the discussion.
Let me set the scene for you: It's 2008, we are having an election and candidate Obama, he's not even president elect, sends William Miller over to Iran to establish a backchannel, and let the Iranians know should he win the election they will have friendlier terms. Okay? So this is a private citizen going to foreign soil, obviously in order to evade U.S. intelligence monitoring and establishing a backchannel with a sworn enemy of the United States who was actively disrupting our efforts in the military in the Middle East.
Joining Strassel on the panel was MSNBC's loony Joy Reid who's normally wildly triggered by anything outside of her worldview. She lived up to expectations and completely dismissed Obama's back channeling with the radical Iranians. "In October, the collective judgment of the 17 intelligence agencies had been: Russia had been taking active measures to interfere with our elections. Quite a difference. We don't think that Iran was doing that," she argued.
"You have to follow the money, you have to follow the meetings, the lies, the attempts to derail this investigation," loudly exclaimed former conservative talk show host turned token anti-Trump Republican, Charlie Sykes. He seemed to have conveniently forgotten how acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe and former FBI Director James Comey had previously testified to Congress that there had been no attempts made to interfere with the investigation.
After Strassel had noted that perhaps the Trump transition didn't want Obama officials listening into those conversations, Reid jumped to the defense of Obama's administration. "Are you telling me that the now elected Trump administration did not trust John Brennan that somehow these straight arrow guys in our intelligence services were going to now work to actively undermine, are they now seeing them as some sort of dissidents," she wondered.
One of the most interesting pieces of news that actually came out this week, was the FISA court revelation that they said that the Obama administration had been actively engaged in abusing fourth amendment protections by unmasking people's identities on a routine basis, which they did not acknowledge to the court. And which they said, brought up major, major concerns. So maybe you wouldn't trust that team in fact.
This is the first time that story had made its way onto any network news program. They and the liberal cable channels seem to be having a total blackout since Wednesday.
Moderator Chuck Todd saved Reid some of the embarrassment by cutting off discussion and going to a commercial.
The showing by Strassel demonstrates how the liberal media is constantly craving news stories that are damaging to the Trump administration, no matter the facts behind them. In their minds, Trump is guilty beyond doubt and they're itchy for a conviction despite the public evidence or lack thereof.
It's 2008, we are having an election and candidate Obama, he's not even president elect, sends William Miller over to Iran to establish a backchannel, and let the Iranians know should he win the election they will have friendlier terms. Okay? So this is a private citizen going to foreign soil, obviously in order to evade U.S. intelligence monitoring and establishing a backchannel with a sworn enemy of the United States who was actively disrupting our efforts in the military in the Middle East.
So, is that bad judgment? Is that a bad thing that happened? Backchannels are completely normal, they happen all the time. Reagan did them, Obama did them, everyone did. So, I am not quite sure why, supposedly having at least the President is now elected setting up a backchannel with the Russians, it is somehow out of bounds.
JOY REID: Well, here is one key difference. In October, months before this latest meeting and it was 18 separate contacts that we know of between the Trump Campaign and Russia, our primary adversary in the world.
STRASSEL: And a major super power.
REID: In October, the collective judgment of the 17 intelligence agencies had been: Russia had been taking active measures to interfere with our elections. Quite a difference. We don't think that Iran was doing that. So we know that was happening in October. So in December, the now President-Elect decides he's going to name Jim Mattis his secretary of defense. But he doesn't open a backchannel, he sends his real estate developer son-in-law supposedly-- or the real estate development son-in-law decides to open this backchannel.
STRASSEL: But we don't know the answers to any of those questions because what we're getting here are half leaks and anonymously by sources.
STRASSEL: And we don't have any of that information.
SYKES: --the attempts to derail this investigation! Don't have any of that information. And the reality here is Jared Kushner and the Trump administrations apparently trusted the Russians more than the intelligence community. Look, how could this not be suspicious?
STRASSEL: Why would you trust—I'm sorry, by the way. We can't forget that the intelligence services and also the Defense Department were being run by the Obama administration. They had plenty of reasons not to want administrations.
REID: In December, the election was over. In this country, we have a continuity of government, we hand over peaceful power from one party to another all the time and have done so for more than 240 years. Are you telling me that the now elected Trump administration did not trust John Brennan that somehow these straight arrow guys in our intelligence services were going to now work to actively undermine, are they now seeing them as some sort of dissidents? [Crosstalk] That has never happened in the history of the United States.
STRASSEL: One of the most interesting pieces of news that actually came out this week, was the FISA court revelation that they said that the Obama administration had been actively engaged in abusing fourth amendment protections by unmasking people's identities on a routine basis, which they did not acknowledge to the court. And which they said, brought up major, major concerns. So maybe you wouldn't trust that team in fact.
REID: Who said that? Who is the source of that information?
REID Do you know how difficult it is to get a FISA warrant against an American citizen—an American person.
STRASSEL: You are not talking about what I just mentioned.


Memories. Thoughts. The precious skills required to make a delicious frittata. All stored and processed in the brain. An intricate net of nerves growing around and interconnecting of which we know a lot and yet still too little.
What regulates nerves growth was only discovered in the 1950s when Rita Levi Montalcini identified the Nerve Growth Factor, the protein complex that regulates the growth and survival of neuron cells. For the study, she used a chicken. A chicken embryo to be precise. She cracked an egg opened, implanted a piece of a mice tumour in the chicken embryo and waited. Around the tumor, nerves started growing not only from the tumor cells but also in the chicken cells all around. The tumor was releasing a substance that would stimulate the growth of nerves – the nerve growth factor!
I hope you add this story to the memories you can recall the next time you will prepare your breakfast.
Talking of memories, the very first science divulgation book I have ever read was "Abbi il coraggio di conoscere" by Rita Levi Montalcini. The title is the Italian translation of Kant's Sapere Aude, "Dare to be wise", and the whole book is an ode to knowledge and to push oneself over their boundaries and self-imposed limitations. I would lie if I'd say this reading did not help to shape who I am.

San Francisco in the 1970s was a global hub of culture. It was known worldwide for hippies and radicals. The city was heavily affected by drugs, prostitution and crime. Outcasts and the socially marginalized were attracted by a greater tolerance and acceptance of diverse cultures in the city.  It grew as one of world's biggest centers for the LGBT community and LGBT rights. The rock music known as the San Francisco Sound was performed live and recorded by San Francisco-based rock groups of the mid-1960s to early 1970s. It was associated with the counterculture community in the city at the time.

San Francisco was the cradle of the pornography industry in the United States in the 1970s, and led to a dramatic growth of strip clubs, adult movie theaters, "peep show" booths, and sex shops downtown, as well as to the creation of the first feminist advocacy groups for sex workers.  Many skyscrapers were built in the city during this period. The city is also associated with West Coast jazz and was one of the major centers of jazz fusion which took off in the 1970s. Many American detective/crime television series were shot in San Francisco in the 1970s and the city became well known as a backdrop to police films such as Dirty Harry (1971).

1970–71
On November 20, 1969, the group Indians of All Tribes (IAT) began a 19-month occupation of Alcatraz Island,  in the San Francisco Bay, just off the shoreline of the city. The protesters, predominantly students, drew inspiration and tactics from contemporary civil rights demonstrations, some of which they had themselves organized.  The stated intention of the Occupation was to gain Indian control over the island for the purpose of building a center for Native American Studies, an American Indian spiritual center, an ecology center, and an American Indian Museum.  The occupiers specifically cited their treatment under the Indian termination policy and they accused the U.S. government of breaking numerous Indian treaties.

In December 1969, one of the occupiers, Isani Sioux John Trudell, began making daily radio broadcasts from the island, and in January 1970, occupiers began publishing a newsletter. Joseph Morris, a Blackfoot member of the local longshoreman's union, rented space on Pier 40 to facilitate the transportation of supplies and people to the island.  Some non-aboriginal members of San Francisco's drug and hippie scene also moved to the island, until non-Indians were prohibited from staying overnight. By late May 1970, the government had cut off all electrical power and all telephone service to the island. In June, a fire of disputed origin destroyed numerous buildings on the island. Left without power, fresh water, and in the face of diminishing public support and sympathy, the number of occupiers began to dwindle. On June 11, 1971, a large force of government officers removed the remaining 15 people from the island, forcibly ending a 19-month occupation.

In 1970, Alex de Renzy of San Francisco produced a documentary, Pornography in Denmark: A New Approach, about the red light district of Copenhagen. The film, which grossed $2 million on a $15,000 budget, resulted in a well-documented court case, in which the judge ruled that it was "in keeping with the Supreme Court edict that draws the line between what constitutes free speech and what constitutes obscenity." As a result, some open-minded San Franciscans became filmmakers and porn merchants, with the likes of the Mitchell brothers and Lowell Pickett capitalizing on the legalization of pornography in the city, and it was referred to early on by The New York Times as "The Smut Capital of the United States" and "the porn capital of America", with a rush later compared to the Silicon Valley boom of the late 1990s.  "Storefront" theaters and peep-show booths sprang up around the city throughout 1970, with buildings such as the Presidio and the Centre and Regal on Market Street converted to X-rated theatres.  All sorts of kinky shops, publications and items sprang up around the city, including the first "leather" bondage magazine, Whipcrack in 1971.  According to Josh Sides, in April and May 1970, "more than 950 patrons of adult bookstores, 367 patrons of pornographic video arcades, and more than 3,100 patrons of adult movie theaters" were observed in San Francisco.  Although government officials, such as Supervisor Dianne Feinstein, frowned upon the growth of the industry in San Francisco in the 1970s, the police force were known to be more lenient towards adult film makers and theatre owners in the city than in other US cities. Many women's rights groups, notably Women Against Violence in Pornography and Media, campaigned actively against the industry, believing it to be demoralizing and demeaning to women., though some sex workers within San Francisco, such as Margo St. James,  created sex-positive advocacy groups and lobbied for decriminalization of vice laws.

Modern Latino Culture is represented by several artistic and cultural institutions in the Mission District. The "Mission Cultural Center" for  Latino Arts was established in 1976 by Chicano (Mexican-American) artists to cater to the taste of all classes of all ages of the community and is considered the "epicenter of Latino culture."  Galería de la Raza, which was founded here in 1970 by el Movimiento (the Chicano civil rights movement is a nationally recognized institution in the Bay Area. The Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (YBCA) celebrates  Latino culture with a "Carnaval," every year, which is said to be the largest multi-cultural event in San Francisco.

A gay San Francisco postal worker who was to be dismissed from service by the Civil Service Commission on the grounds of "moral incompetency" fought for his rights in the court, in November 1970, and was reinstated in the job. This marked the beginning of gay reforms.

Many important skyscrapers in San Francisco were built in the 1970s. The Hilton San Francisco and Towers
was built in 1971. 425 Market Street was completed in 1973. The , 38 floor office tower at 425 Market Street was built by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company as their "Pacific Coast Headquarters" and was called "1 Metropolitan Plaza". It was built as a modern replacement for their older headquarters on Nob Hill at 600 Stockton Street (now remodeled as the Ritz-Carlton Hotel). It was among the first buildings in San Francisco to have a high-speed transport system  for computer data cards, files and inner-office mail, at the time a state-of-the-art system.

On May Day 1971, protesters demonstrated against the Vietnam War which led to violent clashes with the police, leading to some 100 arrests.
Some 150,000 marchers turned out at the anti-war protests in San Francisco.

In 1971, the murder of police officer Sgt. John V. Young in San Francisco led to the arrests and indictments of several former Black Panther Party members. The unsolved murders of the Zodiac Killer continued to mystify San Franciscans as the killer repeatedly send taunting messages to the San Francisco Chronicle taking credit for various Northern California killings through 1970 and 1971.

1972–73

The black and Asian population of San Francisco continued to contribute significantly to San Francisco in the 1970s. The black population of San Francisco peaked in the early 1970s; in 1972 one in seven citizens was black. Many African-American residents still lived in the Fillmore district, which had  given birth to a thriving jazz scene and been called the Harlem of the West in the 50s and 60s. However, urban redevelopment began to push blacks out of the Fillmore in the late 1960s; by 1980 San Francisco's black population had decreased by 10%.  Some Japanese-Americans had returned to  the Fillmore after their internment during  World War II, and Japantown  opened to great fanfare in 1968.  Chinese Americans had a long history in San Francisco; new immigrants joined established residents in Chinatown and other  San Francisco neighborhoods.  The 1970s also saw the arrival into San Francisco's Tenderloin district of refugees from Vietnam and other areas of Southeast Asia following the end of the Vietnam War in 1975.

Many socially marginalized individuals, outcasts and LGBT people continued to increase in numbers in the city, which became a haven for them and where they could share a common identity in numbers, not only attracted by its gay-friendly reputation but for its reputation as a radical, left-wing center. The lesbian community of San Francisco between 1972 and 1975 has been described as a "series of overlapping social networks, in which friendship groups focus[ed] around pair relationships or special interests."  Some women  met in lesbian bars that were scattered around the city, including Maud's, Wild Side West, and others.  Gay men had 118 bars and nightclubs to choose from in 1973, many of them in the Polk Gulch or Castro District. These new LGBT residents were the prime movers of Gay Liberation and often lived communally, buying decrepit Victorians in the Haight and fixing them up. When drugs and violence began to become a serious problem in the Haight, some gay people simply moved "over the hill" to the Castro replacing Irish-Americans who had moved to the more affluent and culturally homogeneous suburbs. The Castro became known as a Gay Mecca, and its gay population, particularly men, swelled as significant numbers of gay people moved to San Francisco in the 1970s and 1980s. The growth of the gay population caused tensions with some of the established ethnic groups in the southern part of the city.

The music scene, especially jazz fusion, but also rock music and disco thrived in the city in the 1970s, and from the late 1970s onwards San Francisco also became a major focal point in the North American and international punk, thrash metal, and rave scenes. In 1967, thousands of young people had entered the Haight-Ashbury district during what became known as the Summer of Love. The San Francisco Sound emerged as an influential force in rock music, with such acts as Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead achieving international prominence. These groups blurred the boundaries between folk, rock and jazz traditions and further developed rock's lyrical content. The 1972 album Graham Nash David Crosby was partly recorded in Wally Heider's studios in San Francisco and Los Angeles.  The band led by San Francisco's Steve Miller Band turned out, in 1973 in San Francisco, major musical hits such as "The Joker," "Fly Like An Eagle" and "Jet Airliner" and " Don't Stop Believin".

Nightclubs across the city increasingly featured jazz fusion artists who moved away from traditional jazz, embracing a range of influences including Brazilian musical forms; bongo playing for instance became one of the musical icons of the city during this period.  Keystone Korner in North Beach was a notable jazz club which opened in 1972, featuring jazz greats like Miles Davis, McCoy Tyner, Betty Carter and others. Another popular nightclub of the 1970s which opened in 1972 was Dave Allen's The Boarding House, which hosted music and comedy, featuring Bette Midler, Patti Smith, Dolly Parton, Steve Martin, Robin Williams, and others.  In the 1970s, the rise of disco was one of the biggest musical genres of the decade (rooted in funk, Latin and soul vocal music supported by bass lines and electronic synthesizers).  Disco took hold in the San Francisco gay community in the early 1970s and by 1978 the androgynous San Francisco singer Sylvester had achieved national prominence with several disco hits.

In 1973, Margo St. James founded the first feminist sex worker advocacy group, COYOTE, which provided legal and health services to prostitutes and lobbied to change the public image and criminalization of sex work. St. James was also one of the hosts of the first Hookers Masquerade Ball in 1974, which became an annual San Francisco tradition in the 1970s, drawing local celebrities and city leaders like police chief Charles Gain. This tradition of an annual "erotic" masquerade party continued into the 21st century with the creation of the Exotic Erotic Ball in 1979.

The San Francisco Bay Area continued to be a leading academic center in the 1970s, centered around the major universities of Stanford University and Berkeley. In May 1972, for instance, the first demonstration of acupuncture in San Francisco was held at Stanford which attracted some 1,400 physicians.

The 1970s also brought other major changes to the city such as the construction of its first subway system, BART, which connected San Francisco with other cities in the Bay Area. At stations in downtown San Francisco, BART connects with MUNI, the city subway, which has lines that run underground along Market Street, and then along surface streets through much of the city.

The Transamerica Pyramid is one of the tallest skyscrapers on the San Francisco skyline and one of its most iconic. Although the building no longer houses the headquarters of the Transamerica Corporation, it is still strongly associated with the company and is depicted in the company's logo. Designed by architect William Pereira and built by Hathaway Dinwiddie Construction Company, at 260 m (850 ft), upon completion in 1972 it was among the five tallest buildings in the world.

San Francisco also saw a series of racially motivated murders during this time with the Zebra Killings.

1974–75

In 1974, the education system came under scrutiny with public outcries for improvements. City newspapers ran headlines such as "Angry San Francisco Parents Ask State for Help", "Angy Board Members Talk: Why Schools Don't Improve", "School Costs Rose as Enrollment Fell", "San Francisco Staff Still Outnumbers Teachers", and "Board of Education Exempts Many Bilingual Students from School Bus Program". Subsequently, a commission was appointed to study the city's educational problems, which was considered akin to declaring the San Francisco Unified School District a disaster area.

In the same year, with bankruptcy imminent for the San Francisco Ballet, a grassroots effort brought national attention to the association.

Prior to the discovery of the first AIDS case in 1981, Dr. Selma Dritz, the city's medical epidemiologist, became alarmed at the increase in sexually transmitted diseases among the city's gay men, opining that epidemics had been triggered after 1974 by "political and social changes in the city".

The Grateful Dead Movie was filmed in 1974 in San Francisco during the Grateful Dead's October 1974 five performances at the Winterland Ballroom.

After the 1974 kidnapping of newspaper heiress Patricia Hearst in Berkeley, her father gave away more than $6 million worth of food to those in need in the San Francisco area, only to learn that the Symbionese Liberation Army felt his efforts weren't sufficient, thereby retaining Hearst as their prisoner.
On April 15, 1974, Hearst was recorded on surveillance video wielding an M1 carbine while robbing the Sunset District branch of the Hibernia Bank at 1450 Noriega Street in San Francisco, having  taken the revolutionary name Tania. Hearst was arrested in San Francisco with other SLA members in 1975.

In August 1975, almost the entire San Francisco Police Department police force staged a strike as the city refused to increase their pay.

On September 22, 1975, Sara Jane Moore attempted to assassinate President Gerald Ford in front of the St. Francis Hotel in Union Square, San Francisco by firing two gunshots at him, both of which missed. A bystander, Oliver Sipple grabbed her shooting arm after hearing the first shot, which may have caused her to miss the second shot and save Ford's life.

On the anniversary of the Mexican Revolution, the Mexican Museum was founded in 1975 in the Mission District.

Harvey Milk, an openly gay man, ran for election to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors but did not win; when he ran again in two years, he won a seat on the board.

1976–77
The Golden Dragon massacre that occurred on 4 September 1977 originated with a dispute at the Golden Dragon Restaurant between the Joe Boys, and the Wah Ching, two Chinatown gangs. The Joe Boys attacked the Wah Ching at this restaurant as they had vandalized the graves of some of the Joe Boys members who had been killed. In the resulting gun battle of five innocent bystanders, including two tourists, were killed and 11 injured and this incident came to be known as the Golden Dragon Massacre following which the San Francisco Police Department's Gang Task Force came to be established.

San Francisco was unusual for a large city in that its Board of Supervisors was chosen in at-large elections, with all candidates appearing together on the ballot. The candidate who received the most votes was elected President of the Board of Supervisors, with runners up filling the remaining open seats. District elections were enacted by Proposition T in November 1976. The first district-based elections in 1977 resulted in a radical change to the composition of the Board, including the election of groundbreaking minority candidates Harvey Milk, Gordon Lau, Ella Hill Hutch, and Carol Ruth Silver.  After former Supervisor Dan White shot and killed Supervisor Milk and Mayor George Moscone inside city hall, district elections were deemed too divisive and San Francisco returned to at-large elections until 2000.

On August 4, 1977, the last 50 residents of the International Hotel, a building that had housed nearly 200 low-income Asian and Filipino American  residents, were forcibly evicted after several years of political battles between residents and developers who wanted to convert the building for urban renewal.  Five thousand demonstrators blocked the building in an attempt to stop the eviction.

Later in 1977, under increased public scrutiny, Jim Jones of the People's Temple, which had established itself in San Francisco in 1971, fled with many of his followers to Jonestown in Guyana, where over nine hundred people committed suicide by drinking poisoned Kool-Aid on November 18, 1978.

1978–79

Maynard Ferguson recorded live at the Great American Music Hall, in 1978; his album "Bebop Buffet" became one of his strongest jazz albums.

The late 1970s saw the formation of a punk rock  music scene in San Francisco, with the Mabuhay Gardens club hosting local bands like the Dead Kennedys, (formed in 1978) and the Avengers (formed in 1977).

Allan Bérubé, the author of the book tilted "Coming Out Under Fire: The History of Gay Men and Women in World War II" was instrumental in bringing forth some of the ordeals of the men and women of the armed forces who had the vision to challenge, in the mid-1970s, the discriminatory practice followed in excluding them as they were gay. This received wide publicity as "gays in the military" and Allan Bérubé's campaign in San Francisco, started in the 1970s, culminated in establishing the San Francisco Lesbian and Gay History project, in 1978–79. Following the awareness created by this project, many ex-servicemen challenged their termination from the armed services which resulted only in further tightening the rules against gays by the armed services.

In The Castro, Milk exhibited photographs of gays taken by photographer Jerry Pritikin, in his photoshop, Castro Camera.  Following a protest march by Anita Bryant in Dade County, Florida in 1977, held to rescind a gay rights ordinance, a similar support march was held in San Francisco which was led by Milk. In this march, attended by 5000 people, there was a single slogan board which said "Save Our Rights."  A photo of this event was publicized for many months.  Milk and others in the city also campaigned heavily against the Briggs Initiative, which would have prohibited gay people  from teaching in California public schools.  Harvey Milk became the first gay male politician to be elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors.  On November 27, 1978,  he was assassinated, along with Mayor George Moscone, by Dan White, a former police officer and Board of Supervisor member, who climbed into a window at City Hall and shot both men.

Defense attorneys  of Dan White used what was later referred to as The Twinkie Defense, arguing that White was under mental duress and garnering sympathy from jury members.  White was saved from a murder conviction, and convicted of voluntary manslaughter, with a maximum sentence of seven years in prison.  The verdict led to rioting and  burning of police vehicles by some members of the LGBT community on 21 May 1979 which came to be known as the White Night riots. The day after the verdict, a birthday party for Milk  was held in the Castro, drawing 20,000 people. Also reported in 1979, off-duty police officers attacked a San Francisco lesbian bar,  assaulted the bouncer and harassed the women, which was widely criticized.  The assault resulted in one conviction with a sentence of probation and temporary suspensions of some of the officers involved.

After Moscone's death, Dianne Feinstein became mayor of San Francisco.

Whew. Had bronchitis last week, had to miss out on seeing the whooping cranes. I tried coming in to do work twice, and was told by officemates to go home in no uncertain terms. Eventually, I bowed to their judgment. Now I'm playing catch up, so of course I write a blog post. To, um, get back in the habit of writing. Yeah.
A couple weeks ago, I hosted book club. We read Wool by Hugh Howey – which I keep wanting to call Howl – and all had thoughts about the book.
Howey originally self-published Wool as a series of short stories that garnered some praise and attention, which were eventually picked up by a major publisher to be collected as a single book. The five sections – each its own short story – are very distinct. One book-clubber described the book as "post-apocalyptic mystery" which is as good a description as any. I devoured the first three sections, then stalled out on the last two. It took awhile for me to figure out why, but I think I've nailed it down.
Each of the first three sections has a very strong point of view, tight third person narrative. We see through the main characters' eyes. Each section has a different narrator, but we are privy to their thoughts and perceptions of the world. We only know as much as they do. These parts are gripping. I wanted to figure out the mysteries that each character confronted as much as they did. And Jules is great – a female hypercompetent mechanic turned detective? Sign me up. The last two parts, however, begin opening to more points of view. The events aren't as grounded in one particular characters' experience, but we see what happens from multiple places. Suddenly, the book feels a lot less like a character pushing through obstacles to figure out a mystery, and more like there are Important Things Happening that the author Wants to Happen. Plot takes over, at the sacrifice of a strong character worldview. And everyone in the book club immediately lost interest.
I think a lot of authors and stories do this. The Hunger Games is a perfect example. I loved the first book. The second book was good, if repetitive. The third book, however, no longer felt like Katniss's story. It was the story of Panem, and it is difficult to identify with an entire nation. Suzanne Collins is hardly alone, though. I love Steven Brust's Vlad Taltos books (and Cowboy Feng's Space Bar and Grille). But one of them I refuse to re-read, because its…well, there's a revolution, and Vlad's wife is heavily involved, and the whole story is very plotty. Nothing is untrue to the characters, but I still could not quite buy into the premise. And I like revolution! I grew up in a good Marxist household, after all.
Revolutions are hard to pull off. In the real world, or in writing. I just re-read Guards! Guards! By Terry Pratchett – another all time favorite – and there's a quote by the Patrician that I think is fitting.
I don't necessarily believe this – I'm cynical, but not quite that cynical. But Pratchett has a point – the plan for what happens after the aristocracy or tyrant or plutocracy is displaced never quite coalesces. I cannot think of a story where the author sells me on this. And it tends to be particularly weak when the story starts as centering on one character, then tries to expand. Dystopian stories, post-apocalyptic narratives, social upheaval. They're amongst my favorite premises, but too often feel unfinished.
A counter might be George R.R. Martin's books. You can hardly get more plot-driven than those. I need post-it notes to keep track of events and characters. Those work, though, because we are never wedded to just one viewpoint. There are multiple strands that we follow from the very beginning. Martin never tries to get you to buy into what is happening from just Tyrion's perspective, or just Dany's. He also includes Arya and The Onion Knight and Cersei and Brienne and Stannos and dozens of others. It is a big picture view of the world, told through many smaller stories.
And that is where Wool falls flat, ultimately. We buy into one person's world – Holston, Jahns or Juliette. Then we lose our connection with one character, and are asked to expand to multiple at a time. Our expectations are no longer met.
Two conclusions, then, that I think are applicable to all writing. First, character rules all. People want to read about people, and they want a sense of who those people are. Even in science writing, write about a person, and imbue them with personality, ambition, choice, goals. Readers will forgive much if the characters stay true. Second, the writer has a contract with the reader. They set up certain expectations of narrative, approach. Breach the contract, and there are no guarantees the reader will stay with you. Twists and turns in plot are forgivable, even appreciated. Abrupt, unexpected changes in voice are not.

College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences>
Peace, Justice and Conflict Studies
The Peace, Justice, & Conflict Studies Program offers students a BA major curriculum that is rooted in the values of active and strategic nonviolence. The courses trains them to reflect on the origins and causes of conflict, direct, cultural, and institutional, as well as social injustice and other forms of systemic violence. They are introduced to a wide spectrum of conflict intervention, especially organizational peacebuilding, local and interpersonal conflict resolution, citizen diplomacy, and post-conflict transformative justice approaches. Students learn about strategies for resolving interpersonal, communal and international conflicts with active nonviolence and respectful dialogue, as well as about tactics promoting the common good in a way that addresses the structural origins of violence, such as poverty and income disparities. The Program includes frank debate about the efficacy of nonviolent in comparison with violent approaches to social change. The inclusion of conflict theory and active nonviolent interventions is a distinctive aspect of this program. The arena of conflict resolution offers many potential career options. The Program emphasizes hands-on, experiential components in the introductory courses, the final seminars and internship, and the workshops which emphasize skill training.
Students and faculty in Peace, Justice, & Conflict Studies question what constitutes a just society and world, what peacebuilding can accomplish in a world full of conflict, and how attitudes toward social justice, violence, and peace reflect and reveal American and other cultures' values, beliefs, prejudices, assumptions, and perceptions.
Students are expected to gain competency in dealing with situations of conflict and injustice by mastering the theoretical and intellectual frameworks related to peacebuilding, human rights advocacy, and justice development, by learning to interpret and analyze real life situations in their complexity, by understanding how to use strategies for negotiation, consensus-building, advocacy, partnership development, and other intervention tools, and by understanding various research methodologies and the use of media and creative outlets.
Students majoring in any social science, humanities, and other interdisciplinary programs will find it beneficial to double major or minor in Peace, Justice, & Conflict Studies, particularly due to its core value of strategic nonviolence. Students with majors in computer games, documentary film, journalism, and animation have added the PJC second major to add desired content to their creative work. Students who pursue the major are well prepared for graduate work in the humanities or social sciences, and specifically in peace, justice, or conflict studies, as well as for professional training in law, public service, or business, among other areas.

Real Soldiers Love Their Robot Brethren
Concept art shows a human resistance fighter facing off against a Hydrobot from the movie "Terminator Salvation." (Image credit: Warner Bros.)
Human warriors have long spoken of the bonds forged in combat and of becoming a "band of brothers." The fact that some of those fellow soldiers are made of metal has not discouraged human feelings toward them.
Thousands of robots now fight with humans on modern battlefields that resemble scenes from science fiction movies such as "Terminator Salvation." But the real world poses a more complex situation than humans versus robots, and has added new twists to the psychology of war.
"One of the psychologically interesting things is that these systems aren't designed to promote intimacy, and yet we're seeing these bonds being built with them," said Peter Singer, a leading defense analyst at the Brookings Institution and author of "Wired for War: The Robotics Revolution and Conflict in the 21st Century" (Penguin Press HC, 2009).
Singer highlights many accounts of human soldiers feeling strong affection for their robots — especially on the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) teams where Packbots and Talon robots undertake the risk of disabling improvised explosives planted by insurgents in Iraq and Afghanistan.
One EOD soldier brought in a robot for repairs with tears in his eyes and asked the repair shop if it could put "Scooby-Doo" back together. Despite being assured that he would get a new robot, the soldier remained inconsolable. He only wanted Scooby-Doo.
Robot in arms
The United States military sees robots as tireless warriors capable of striking fear into enemies, and is not shy about finding inspiration from "Terminator."
"One scientist said he was trying to build the Hunter-Killer drone from 'Terminator,'" Singer told LiveScience.
Terror aside, Singer and other experts point out how battlefield robots have also proved capable of inspiring love from their human comrades, such as the EOD soldier.
"It sounds silly, but you have to remember that he's been through the most psychologically searing experience: battle," Singer said. "That machine has saved him time and time again."
Sometimes such bonds led soldiers to risk their lives for their robots, in a strange inverse of the idea that robots would spare human lives. Singer recounted another EOD soldier who ran 164 feet under machine gun fire to retrieve a robot that had been knocked out of action. And several teams have given their robots promotions, Purple Heart awards for being wounded in combat, and even a military funeral.
This attachment to robots stems in part from the human brain's mirror-neuron system, which fires up whenever watching the movement of someone or something, Singer noted. The system helps form the foundation for empathy and understanding the mindset of another being, but can also lead people to project personalities and emotions onto objects.
The growing numbers of battlefield robots have also changed the human relationship to war itself, especially as the United States has already fielded more than 12,000 ground robots and more than 7,000 flying drones in regions such as Iraq and Afghanistan.
Armed drones in particular have proved effective in loitering over target areas for hours until targets come in sight, and then firing their missiles at suspected insurgents — all while being controlled by human operators sitting thousands of miles away in Nevada.
The drone operator's war often looks surreal and disconnected from reality, given that they coordinate strikes via online chat and view their targets as small infrared figures moving around. Many media stories have referenced the example of a 19-year-old drone operator, who honed his skills from playing Xbox to become a top operator and eventually an instructor.
That has led some members of the U.S. military to look down on drone operators for not sharing the risks of ground forces or even pilots, as Singer discovered. One Special Operations officer remained enraged years later by a "bogus weather call" that prevented a drone from supporting his unit in Afghanistan. His contempt for the Predator operators was such that he expressed more respect for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi – the insurgent mastermind who was behind hundreds of bombings and killings.
Still, Singer said that the operators "know lives are at stake," and take pride in the role that they play in helping demoralize the enemy. And the U.S. military has clearly invested much of its future in the capabilities of robots.
When Singer asked one U.S. Air Force officer about how he envisioned the psychological impact of the drones on the enemy, the officer compared the Taliban and Al Qaeda militants to the human resistance fighters in the "Terminator" movies — hiding in their bunkers and caves from the technological onslaught.
How to fight a robot
The ever-watchful eyes in the sky have clearly unnerved human fighters to some extent. The New York Times reported in March that some Pakistani locals had given up drinking Lipton tea for fear of the teabags acting as homing beacons for drones. And the Los Angeles Times noted that a six-month campaign of Predator strikes has sown distrust within Al Qaeda, so that the militants have begun violently purging their own ranks.
However, Singer and others point out that the use of robots may also make the United States look weak, even cowardly to cultures in the Middle East and elsewhere. People of those cultures see a powerful nation that wages distant war with incredible technologies but refuses to risk its own troops, and they grow defiant.
"One side thinks that its very duty is to do everything to bring its soldiers home to its families," Singer noted. "For the other side, the very act of dying is almost the main goal."
Singer spoke with two insurgents for his book, and they acknowledged the technological prowess of U.S. robots and drones. But they also said they were not at all intimidated — one with an engineering background expressed eagerness to get his hands on his own robot.
Previous attempts to rely solely on technological shock and awe through "Gunboat Diplomacy" and airpower have not proven incredibly successful in the long run, said Douglas Peifer, a researcher at the Air War College of Maxwell Air Force Base in Alabama.
"No doubt robots and unmanned combat systems will discourage our opponents and minimize our losses," Peifer said in an article for Small Wars Journal. "But betting that the latest iteration of revolutionary technology will magically compel a resolute enemy to come to terms is unwise."
On the modern battlefield, Iraqi insurgents have adapted by targeting EOD robots and capturing robots for their own use. U.S. soldiers have even encountered crude but innovative insurgent bots, Singer explained in his book — such as a remote-controlled skateboard rigged with explosives that scooted along as though pushed by the wind.
Guess who has the terminators
"We don't have to be in the year 2018 with Skynet and the terminators all around us, for those huge policy and military dilemmas to take form," Singer said. "They're already here."
As the U.S. military and others rapidly deploy a growing swarm of robots on sea, land and air, some experts cited in "Wired for War" could not help but make another "Terminator" comparison. They warned that the United States runs the risk of looking like the evil empire from Star Wars, if not the heartless Skynet and its army of relentless terminator robots.
Still, robot researchers and the military continue to embrace ideas born from "Terminator" and science fiction. Singer attended one presentation on the Energetically Autonomous Tactical Robot (EATR) — a long-range robot that refuels itself on "grass, broken wood, furniture, dead bodies," according to a list reeled off by one scientist.
"I really hope Skynet doesn't learn about that kind of system," Singer said.


Has anyone had any problems with the built in blinds in French doors?
My advice, do not purchase them. It is expensive to fix when they break, and they will cease to function at some point. Better to purchase the best doors you can afford that have the heat and light resistant glass.
Personal preference, get regular paned french doors without the built in blinds.
Condensation can occur easily between the panes.
Mount Levolor Blinds, much easier to work with. I have a triple french door with the "S" shaped levolors, love, love, love it.
I don't have them, but know several people who do. They've had them for several years with no issues. Of course, they treat them gently and take good care of them.


Leg cramps in pregnancy are a painful problem for many mums-to-be. Find out what they are, what causes them, how you can help prevent them if you've been suffering and what you can do if you suddenly find yourself grimacing through a cramping calf.
Unfortunately for mums-to-be, leg cramps are a common problem in pregnancy, particularly in the later weeks.
You'll feel cramps as sudden involuntary spasms of your leg muscles, mostly your calf muscles but sometimes in your thighs or feet, and it can really hurt! They can last anything from a few seconds to 10 jaw-clenching, toe-curling minutes. Your muscle might feel tender for a short while after the cramping has stopped too.
Because leg cramps most commonly happen at night, you can add them to the list of pregnancy-related annoyances that can disturb your precious sleep. Lovely!
Why do I get leg cramps in pregnancy?
We don't know exactly why they happen in pregnancy. Possible reasons are changes to how your nerves and muscles perform now that you're pregnant, weight gain, looseness of your joints in the later weeks of pregnancy, changes to your circulation and more pressure on your leg muscles from carrying extra weight.
Other reasons may be the pressure from your growing baby on nerves and blood vessels and imbalances in or lack of salts, minerals and vitamins, perhaps related to diet. The good news is that leg cramps should disappear after you have given birth.
How can I avoid getting leg cramps?
Keep well hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day.
Eat a balanced, healthy diet. If your diet is poor speak to your midwife or GP.
Keep blankets and covers loose to make it easier to move your legs around while asleep.
Wear shoes with good support and a slightly raised heel during the day. Flat pumps can cause strain to the calf muscles.
How can I get rid of leg cramps?
If you're rudely awoken in the night or at any other time by a crippling leg cramp, stretching out your muscle and massaging the painful area can help. Often you will have jumped out of bed anyway as the cramp is so severe! Stretch your leg out, and bend and straighten your foot up and down. Walking about for a minute or so can help and giving the affected muscles a good rub can ease the pain.
A hot shower or a warm bath before bed can sometimes help relax tired muscles particularly if you are seated or standing all day at work. A hot shower or a warm bath before bed can sometimes help relax tired muscles particularly if you are seated or standing all day at work. Post cramp tenderness can last for several hours- massaging the muscles with ice cubes wrapped in a cloth or a pack of frozen peas can sometimes provide relief. Taking paracetamol is rarely useful and during a cramp is useless as it takes too long to work.
If the pain in your leg does not ease or if there is swelling, redness or increased heat in the leg seek medical attention at once as the symptoms may be coming from a clot in the leg veins. While uncommon, it is more likely to occur in pregnancy and needs immediate treatment.


Welcome to the 418th Metamorphosis Monday!
This past summer when I was out digging and planting shrubs every day, I was coming in and out of my front door a lot.
During all that gardening this past summer, I began to notice a lot more dirt around the house and realized pretty quickly that I was tracking it all in from the garden on my sloggers and gardening boots.
Since then, I've been thinking seriously about adding a shoe/boot tray to my front entry. Boot trays are great ways to keep entrances open and clear, plus they add a nice design element to a mud room or entry.
Or, I could place it across from the niche underneath the door bell chimes.
There are so many cute ones available, I'm having trouble picking one. This one isn't really very appropriate for my house, but wouldn't it be cute for a beach cottage or a home near the water. It's available here: Seashore Boot Tray.
This is the one I'm leaning toward for my entry. I love the pine cone design and Georgia is known for its Pine trees. I especially like the decorative edge…very pretty! It's available here: Pine Cone Boot Tray.
Here's how it looks on a back porch. Cute!
They even show it being used to keep a doggie's food bowls neat. Wish I had thought about this back when I had a dog many years ago.
Love this star boot tray, too! It has that same nice finished edge that I like. It's available here: Star Boot Tray.
I like this understated black rubber boot tray.
I especially like that it is suited for outdoor use, too. It's available here: Black Boot Tray for Indoor or Outdoor.
This zinc boot tray has a liner. I like that a lot…gives the water some place to drain off and evaporate. It's available here: Boot Tray with Liner.
I love how it looks on this old painted porch floor.
And I love how it looks in this mudroom. I love the copper-colored boot trays on wood floors, but I like the zinc tray better for the porch above and the mud room below. The color is perfect in those two spots.
They even have corner boot trays for entrances or mudrooms where that shape works better. You'll find this one available here: Corner Boot Tray.
This white one would be good for a room with a white floor. It would blend right in, although the mud/dirt on the tray would be more visible. It's available here: White Boot Tray.
If you love all things French, this Fleur-de-lis, copper-finish, boot tray would make a stylish addition to an entrance or mud room. It's available here: Fleur-de-lis Boot Tray.
Another cute copper designed tray…it's available here: Copper Boot Tray.
I'm tempted to order a boot tray for the screened porch, too. I have the perfect spot for one just outside the kitchen door under the little window there.
It would fit in this spot that I decorated for Christmas one year.
Do you have a boot tray? If so, where do you have it? Is it in your front entry? A mud room?
Next PostLet's Go Antiquing at A Classy Flea!
I don't have a boot tray but I desperately need one. Especially with all the snow I've tracked in this winter! I love the seashore boot tray. I may have to order that one. Thanks!
Hi Susan! I am way ahead of you. If I am not in the barn with my horses, I am in the garden… and tracking in dirt, mud is a way of life on my ranch so I have a tray in front of all my doors. I also have four dogs in the house and I have used a boot tray under their food and water bowls for years. All great tips. Here is my tip. A friend of mine puts her boots outside in a tray and without thinking of consequences… when she had the pest control guy spray around the exterior of her house, a black widow choose to climb into her boot to find refuge. Yes, she did get bit and had to go to the hospital. She fully recovered, but I keep my boots inside now??? Most of your ideas were for keeping the tray inside. Just a thought. Have a beautiful week!
Yikes! That would be scary! I always check my shoes that I leave in my garage because I've seen crickets out there a few times. I've always been afraid of sticking my foot into a shoe and finding a cricket inside. I never thought about a Black Widow…and we do have those here. I think keeping them inside sounds a lot safer, for sure!
I like the idea of a boot tray, especially if they are as attractive as the ones you show, but convincing the family to use it might be a bit of a challenge.
Hi Susan. I have a boot tray right inside my front door. It is one of the copper boot trays. I really like it and it looks good. I would recommend getting a boot tray with an insert though so any moisture will drain. Unfortunately, my son NEVER puts his shoes or boots in the tray. He kicks them off at the front door and I end up putting them in the tray!
They are all so pretty. I can see why you are having a hard time making a decision. At my husband's hunting camp, I used a commercial sized cookie sheet for their boots. Of course, they don't care what the boot tray looks like. I can't wait to see which one you pick. Thank you for the linky.
Good idea, Laurie! That totally works!
Hi Susan….I have two of the black "sensible" boot trays. One is behind my husband's Lay Z Boy for his "everyday" shoes/boots (out of sight!) the other is in the sunroom where he comes in with his muddy boots (he owns a landscape business and you can imagine the mud/dirt he has on a daily basis). I got mine pretty reasonably at Wal Mart (I think) years ago. I'd love one in my entry but don't really have room for it but they do a great job.
That's good to know! I think I need to add at least one to my home. I could use one by the garage door, too…come to think of it!
Thanks, Christine! Have an awesome week!
There is something very English or French or European for that matter about boot trays. Growing up in Northern Europe they were everywhere as we had to take off out outdoor shoes and put on indoor shoes. As I live in a rather formal home, the front foyer wouldn't work for me. I keep one in the garage and one on my screened porches. One summer, a frog took up residence in one of the boots, yup, I squashed it with force, jamming on my boot. Between screaming and crying, wanting to call 911, get an ambulance or have my foot cut off I hopped over to the garden hose and washed it off. Chucked the boots, and a vigorous shake out of garden foot ware has become a must. Yes get a tray, then a good shakeout and you'll be right as rain. Will never stop hearing the sound of taking a frogs life. Boot trays are a good thing.
There is! Maybe that's why I'm so drawn to them.
Oh my gosh! I would have freaked out! That is definitely an experience you wouldn't soon forget! When my son was very small, probably around 5 or 6 years old, he stuck his foot into his tennis shoe, got a funny look on his face and pulled it right back out. Way down in the toe was a very startled looking Siberian Hamster. lol Siberian Hamsters are very small and fortunately very squishy and pliable, so he wasn't hurt thank goodness!
Love these ideas and links!!! Thank you so much!
While I have you on the line, so to speak…. I have finally landed sheer white napkins. That was a monumental task. Now I'll be letting go of the redundancy of two napkins.
Our boot tray (I'm in Canada) is filled with salt and slush most days. The ones pictured are so clean and tidy but the reality is, for certain climates, that some boot trays really take a kicking and don't look that attractive after being in use for a few days. Ours sits in our mudroom and is a workhorse. Still, I hope you find one you like and makes you happy. If you need some slush or salt, just say the word. Happy to post it down to you! Really enjoy your blog. Thanks!
I never knew there were so many attractive choices for boot trays. I don't have one but then again, I don't have much of a yard to work in. Whichever one you choose, I'd put it under the shell niche, it looks like it would fit better there and not stick out into the doorway.
I have a boot tray in the back entryway at my office; it is under the coat rack in a 'coat niche'. It is one of the copper ones similar to the ones you have shown and I purchased it from Plow and Hearth. I and my staff sometimes put our umbrellas there and occasionally boots but we don't get much snow in Virginia. It looks ok after 4 years but I can tell from our very light use that the finish is slightly affected and I always wipe it off.
At home, I too have a little issue with 'dirty shoes' if we come in the front door at my home (which we don't do often). My foyer is very similar to yours in my traditional colonial home. But I was thinking about this whole issue of dirty shoes and if you come in with dirty shoes you would need to have the tray quite close to the door in order to effectively use the tray; otherwise, you are slogging across the floor/rug to get to the boot tray. I generally take off my outdoor clogs as I enter (right before I enter) and I have left a pair of indoor clogs into which I change for walking back into the house; especially if I'm going to be coming and going a bit. Just a thought. Also like what Michelle from Canada said, you are going to want to clean it a lot if it is going to be sitting in your pretty foyer. Just wondering if it will be more of a hindrance than a help, even though they are very pretty.
Another great item you might consider are the mud rugs from Plow and Hearth; they come in several sizes and look like a 'scatter' rug but are thin and nonslip; I put them down when we have nasty weather or will be tracking in and out, then just take them up and shake them out or launder them and they look great again. They do a great job of catching all the debris on the bottom of shoes; You could just place a small one inside the door, step onto it, into another pair of clean clogs and reverse the procedure to go out. The little rug would roll up and could be stashed out of sight when you are not going to be using that entry. Just another idea. I so enjoy and love your blog and have gotten so many great ideas from you as a reader since day 1.
great idea to use a boot tray under the dogs dishes! I have a mat there – but it doesn't really keep things contained. Thanks for hosting, I had taken some time off from blogging and am finally back – nice to know some of my favorites are still going strong.
I don't have a boot tray, but it is a great idea. No matter how hard you try not to track in dirt & leaves when gardening it always happens. I like the copper ones best.
Those boot trays are adorable! How do you choose just one? Maybe one for the front entry under the shell niche (the tray would be out of the way); then one for the porch near your kitchen door; then one for the garage by the door into your mudroom….hmmm, can we think of any more places?? Oh, yes, the basement door! So you need 4 trays; 4 different designs? Just thought I would help you out deciding!!!
We are in the process of re-designing our garage storage, and adding an "overflow" coat and boot closet there, just inside the door from the house. I'm going to look for a boot tray to put in the closet to help protect the bottom shelf from water and mud from the boots. I hadn't seen these before, so thanks for the idea!
I think I'm ordering that pine one soon. Your spot under the ledge seems the perfect place for one since it's out of the walkway area. Thank you for this feature. I had no idea there were so many options.
Hi: Who knew I could be so enthralled with boot trays. They are all so nice, I would have a hard time messing them up. But I sure could use one near my front door. We have no foyer to speak of and I really hate to see wet shoes/boots on my hardwood floor. Living near the beach, I checked out the seashell one first. I loved it, but saw they also had a cute "Woof" tray. I might have to get that for my big puppy who is a real slob with his food and water. Once again, you have found a treasure trove for me.
I do have a boot tray and love the look of it in my foyer. I ordered the one from Ballard Designs; it's attractive and easy to clean. It holds at. Least 3 pair of shoes/boots and looks somewhat welcoming when I come in the door. I'm sure you'll like having one – or two!
I must be the odd dissenter…this would drive me crazy inside the house…more clutter. I like them on the back porch though.
How funny as I just bought one yesterday at Costco. I had looked several years ago at them at Tuesday Morning but wasn't sure how a metal one would hold up to NE weather. I have mine in my front entryway and so far I have one pr of boots in it; so far so good! I am sure which ever you pick it will look great as always.
I have plastic and rubber boot trays. Your choices are so pretty! My old cat gets mixed up and sometimes uses one of the trays as her cat box!!! Can you imagine?!! I also use a boot tray for a feeding station…so easy to take outside and scrub. You can even use them as plant trays or even put a litter box in one to catch cat litter. Lots of good ideas today, thanks!
P.S.: The fleur-de-lis one is perfect for my son, who lives in a French community … .
I love th woven French market basket and wall hung galvanized organizer, was that porch picture from a catalog? I'd like to order all of it.
lol I know, I loved it, too. It's a picture at the ad for that zinc tray. Just click on the link for zinc boot tray and you'll see both the porch and mud room picture. I love that French market basket! Can you imagine living where you could walk to shop and fill it up with goodies for the day's meal? I didn't see anything in that ad about the basket, unfortunately.
Looks like lots of people have boot trays!! I can relate to Michelle from Canada….we moved to Minnesota, and after ONE winter of having just a cute rug in the mud hall, I realized I needed help. I have 3 boot trays, all black, all easily cleaned, because they are covered with salt and slush most of the winter. You could not see a design on the bottom if you tried! Practicality has trumped my cute rug. 🙁 Love the copper ones you have pictured!
Great boot trays….I am lucky that the door I usually go out is near the laundry room where my shoes usually land. Thanks for hosting and have a great week!
You don't want to see my boot tray! At my house it's used as a potty for my large iguanas LOL – as such, it's just a cheap plastic one. The copper ones are gorgeous. Sadly I don't have a place indoors to put one, but luckily I live in Florida so I don't really need one. I have Waterhog door mats inside and outside of the front and back door which is enough to keep any dirt contained. I wear my Crocs for working in the garden and leave them outside the back door. Whenever I get around to my "forever" house I will have both a use and a place for one of those gorgeous copper boot trays! TFS!
Hi Susan! When we got two puppies last year, I found that I was coming in and out of the back door quite a bit. I purchased the Fleur-de-lis copper boot tray and placed it right inside the back door. I didn't want to leave my shoes outside because we get those brown recluse spiders here in the South, and they love to nestle in to shoes!
Wow – so many lovely trays – hard to choose. But I like the pine trees as I'm surrounded by pines on our property. If I lived near the beach, it would be the beach theme for sure. I kick my garden shoes off at the back door on the deck and come in without any on, but yes I too look for "shoe guests" as I don't want any surprises! ha. Front door has a cute rug in the small foyer for shoes. You're lucky in that you can order 4 different kinds. I agree with the comment above about your tray being too far from the front door if you put it under the nook or over by the bells. I think I would settle for a pretty one out on your front porch while your gardening; it will look great with your beautiful garden benches. 🙂 I'm eager for spring too – daylight staying longer ! I notices it was 5:30 p.m. the other day and still light out! Yay!
I have two of them one in our mudroom, and one in our front entry and I use them all year round. For boots during the winter, and gardening shoes in the spring and summer. I love them, and it keeps the clutter down in both places. I have a basket inside each door with slippers/slipper socks as we don't wear shoes inside our house due to gravel/stickers and so don't want that spread through the house. We keep a doggy towel hanging on a coat hook to dry puppy paws as well. Enjoy whichever one you purchase.

An Underhanded Threat to Working Families in Louisiana and Throughout the Country
Vicki Shabo | May 30, 2012
By Melissa Flournoy, President and CEO of Louisiana Progress, and Vicki Shabo, Director of Work and Family Programs at the National Partnership for Women & Families.
Over the past year, some workers and their families have rested a little easier knowing they will be able to recover from illness or help a family member do so without sacrificing much-needed income. That's because, since this time last year, lawmakers in Connecticut and Seattle joined with workers, advocates and business owners to become the first state and the fourth city to guarantee workers the right to earn paid sick days.
These victories have shown that progress for working families is possible, particularly when it comes to common sense policies like paid sick days that benefit workers, families, businesses and the economy. That's why, today, there are promising paid sick days legislation and campaigns in more than 20 states and cities around the nation.
But opponents of paid sick days also bolstered their efforts in the last year - and Louisiana is their current target. The latest tactic is to strip local authorities of their right to pass basic workplace protections like paid sick days through state-level "preemption" legislation. These bills are underhanded and dangerous.
We saw this tactic in action in Wisconsin last year when the state legislature preempted Milwaukee's popular, voter-approved paid sick days measure. It was a direct denial of local democracy and took away a law that would have done a lot to meet the needs of the city's working families. Hundreds of thousands of workers in Milwaukee — and throughout Wisconsin — remain without paid sick days, and local authorities in Wisconsin now have their hands tied.
The Louisiana state legislature may take the same harmful action before the state's legislative session ends this week. The preemption bill, Senate Bill 521, would eliminate the right of Louisiana's cities and parishes to even consider paid sick days legislation. The state Senate approved the measure 37-0 without any real debate and the state House could vote on it at any minute, moving it ever closer to becoming state law.
More than 600,000 workers in Louisiana don't have the right to earn paid sick days to recover from common illnesses, care for their families or get necessary preventive care. Working women, who are often their families' primary caregivers and sole or co-breadwinners, face impossible choices between their own health and the health of their families when illness strikes if they don't have this basic right. Low-wage workers and those in the service, hospitality and restaurant industries are particularly vulnerable because very few have paid sick days through their employers and their families too often already live on the brink of financial disaster. If S.B. 521 becomes law, cities and parishes in Louisiana will lose the chance to give them the support and protection they need.
Louisiana lawmakers must not deny working families the security they need to be good workers and good family members. House Speaker Chuck Kleckley (R – Lake Charles) and all members of the Louisiana House have a chance to take a stand and reject this dangerous and harmful bill. Working families in the state will suffer if they fail to do so.
Louisiana Progress is a nonpartisan organization which encourages citizens across the political spectrum to promote effective public policy that moves Louisiana forward without leaving fellow citizens behind. We advocate for policies that strengthen the middle class, protect the less advantaged, and equalize opportunity for Louisiana's working families.
The National Partnership for Women & Families leads the national paid sick days coalition. The nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy group is dedicated to promoting fairness in the workplace, access to quality health care and policies that help women and men meet the dual demands of work and family.
UPDATE, 6/7/2012: Senate Bill 521 was signed by Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal on June 7th and is now law.
UPDATE, 5/30/2012: Senate Bill 521 passed the Louisiana House 90-4 on Thursday, May 31st. It is now in the hands of Governor Bobby Jindal. Contact the governor today to make sure he knows what is at stake for Louisiana families and the importance of stopping this dangerous bill.
