Rafael Soriano (born December 19, 1979) is a Dominican former professional baseball pitcher. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Seattle Mariners, Atlanta Braves, Tampa Bay Rays, New York Yankees, Washington Nationals, and Chicago Cubs.
Soriano was an All-Star in 2010. That year, he also led the American League (AL) in saves, and was named the winner of the Major League Baseball Delivery Man of the Month Award for May, July, and August, and the AL Rolaids Relief Man Award in the postseason.

Soriano was born in San José de los Llanos, Dominican Republic. He lived in Boca Chica. By age 8, he played in weekly baseball tournaments in Santo Domingo. However, his mother, Magali, who worked as a housekeeper, often could not afford the twenty dominican pesos it cost for him to make the trip. Soriano would sometimes perform chores for the team's manager, who would then pay for the trip.[1]
Soriano was not well connected to Dominican trainers, who fed information to the most prominent Major League Baseball scouts. Instead, he learned to play baseball through his uncles and his own determination. Soriano attended the Dominican baseball academy of the St. Louis Cardinals at the age of 16, but they opted not to sign him.[1]
Soriano stopped training full-time and dropped out of school at 16 to work full-time in a carpentry shop. A friend told Soriano that he had signed a contract with the Hiroshima Carp, a team in the Central League of Nippon Professional Baseball, which had a Dominican academy in San Pedro de Macorís. After training with the Carp for three months, the team found out that at 16, Soriano was too young to sign. Soriano refused to falsify his documents, and he left the Carp training facility, returning to work.[1]
Ramón de los Santos, working as a scout for the Seattle Mariners, received a tip from an acquaintance about Soriano. After watching Soriano play for twelve minutes, de los Santos signed Soriano for a $5,000 signing bonus as an outfielder, figuring that with his strong throwing arm, Soriano could be converted into a pitcher. After a year and a half in Seattle's organization, playing for the Arizona Mariners of the Rookie-level Arizona League, Soriano struggled as an outfielder, batting .167 in 1998, his second year in Arizona.[2] Heading into spring training in 1999, Soriano prepared himself for the possibility that Seattle would release him, at which point he planned to return to the Dominican Republic to work.[3]
However, Soriano was able to throw as fast as 95 miles per hour (153 km/h) in Arizona.[1] Rafael Chaves, who worked with Soriano in Arizona, suggested that the Mariners convert Soriano into a pitcher. Throwing in the bullpen, Soriano was able to throw between 87 to 90 miles per hour (140–145 km/h), which they figured would improve when he learned proper pitching mechanics.[3] The Mariners assigned Soriano to the Everett AquaSox of the Class A-Short Season Northwest League in 1999.[4] Chaves, working as Everett's pitching coach, helped Soriano with his development.[2] For Everett, Soriano recorded 83 strikeouts and a team-leading 3.11 earned run average (ERA) in 75 1⁄3 innings pitched.[3]
Soriano pitched for the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers of the Class A Midwest League in 2000. With Wisconsin, Soriano had an 8-4 win–loss record and a 2.87 ERA.[3] The Mariners optioned him to the San Bernardino Stampede of the Class A-Advanced California League the next year.[5] He was promoted to the San Antonio Missions of the Class AA Texas League later in the season.[6] Between San Bernardino and San Antonio, Soriano pitched to a 2.82 ERA with 151 strikeouts in 137 1⁄3 innings in 2001.[3]
Before the 2002 season, Baseball America ranked Soriano the 30th best prospect in baseball.[7] However, his arrival in the United States was delayed for three months due to difficulty securing a visa.[3] Soriano made his major league debut with the Mariners on May 10, 2002, recording a save in the game.[8] After making his second relief appearance, the Mariners added Soriano to the team's starting rotation.[9] Teammate Freddy García nicknamed Soriano "El Silencioso", meaning "The Silent One", for his propensity to retreat from his teammates, speaking only to family by phone.[1] After pitching in ten games for the Mariners, pitching to a 0-3 win-loss record with a 4.56 ERA in 47 1⁄3, Soriano went on the disabled list with a sore shoulder on July 10. When the Mariners activated him in August, they optioned him to San Antonio.[10] Soriano spent the rest of the season in San Antonio, where he focused on improving his changeup and slider.[11]
Going into the 2003 season, Baseball America rated Soriano the 27th best prospect in baseball.[7] He competed for a spot in the Mariners' starting rotation during spring training.[11] He started the season with the Tacoma Rainiers of the Class AAA Pacific Coast League. After an effective 2003 season, Soriano suffered a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow, and underwent Tommy John surgery on August 17, 2004.[12]
Soriano returned to the Majors on September 10, 2005. Soriano suffered a concussion on August 29, 2006, after being struck behind the ear by a line drive hit from Angels slugger Vladimir Guerrero.[13][14] He was released from the hospital the following afternoon.[15]
Soriano pitching for the Braves in May 2007
Soriano was traded to the Atlanta Braves from the Mariners on December 7, 2006, in exchange for left-handed pitcher Horacio Ramírez.[16] In an offseason article, ESPN explained why they believed that Soriano was a significantly better player than Ramirez. Soriano had a mixed bag of success and disappointment in his first season in Atlanta, primarily serving as the setup man to closer Bob Wickman. Soriano became the Braves closer after Wickman was designated for assignment in August. He earned his first save since May 10 on August 30.
Soriano was suspended for four games on September 20 after hitting Dan Uggla with a pitch.[17] The suspension was reduced to two games after appeal.[18] He finished his first season as a Brave with a 3–3 record and 3.00 ERA. Soriano signed a two-year contract with the Braves worth US$9 million on January 24, 2008.[19]
That offseason, the Braves offered Soriano arbitration, expecting that he would decline and test free agency. However, Soriano surprised the Braves and accepted arbitration. The Braves then traded Soriano to the Tampa Bay Rays on December 10, 2009 for Jesse Chavez.[20]
Soriano during his tenure with the Rays in 2010
Soriano won the monthly DHL Delivery Man Award for May 2010,[21] and July 2010, becoming the first pitcher to earn that honor twice in one season.[22] He won the award a third time for August 2010, joining Joe Nathan and Trevor Hoffman as the only three-time winners of the monthly award.[23] He was named to the 2010 Major League Baseball All-Star Game to replace an injured Mariano Rivera.[24]
On August 23, 2010, in a game against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Soriano became just the 15th American League pitcher in the modern era (since 1900) to pitch an immaculate inning (strike out the side on nine pitches) and only the 6th pitcher in all of baseball to record a save while doing so. Soriano led the American League in saves at the end of the 2010 season with 45. Soriano finished 8th in the 2010 AL Cy Young Voting.
The Yankees signed Soriano to a three-year, $35 million contract on January 18, 2011.[25] Soriano was originally designated as the set-up pitcher to closer Mariano Rivera.[26] He picked up his first save as a Yankee against the Blue Jays on April 20, 2011.[27] He recorded his first loss, and gave up the tying and winning runs as a Yankee on April 26.[28] On July 30, Soriano pitched his first game since coming off the DL, throwing a scoreless 9th inning, striking out 2 in a 17–3 blowout win vs. the Baltimore Orioles.
Soriano had spent most of his Yankee career as the 7th inning pitcher in front of David Robertson and Rivera. After Rivera was injured for the 2012 season shagging fly balls at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Robertson was slated for the closer role and Soriano the 8th. After closing two games, Robertson himself was temporarily injured, allowing Soriano an opportunity to close again where he thrived, converting his first 12 straight save opportunities. He finished with 42 saves in 46 opportunities. Soriano opted out of the final year of his contract on October 31, 2012, making him a free agent.[29]
On January 15, 2013, Soriano and the Washington Nationals agreed to a $28 million, two-year contract, pending a physical. The deal came with a vesting option in 2015 if he finished 120 games. Only two active pitchers did that in the 2011-2012 combined seasons (Craig Kimbrel with 120 and Jose Valverde with 138).[30][31][32] The deal became official on January 17.[33] In 2013, Soriano recorded 43 saves with a 3.11 ERA, but blew a career high six saves. His strikeout rate fell from 9.2 in 2012 to 6.9 in 2013. Soriano's hits per nine innings also regressed, but not as severely.[34] Soriano's 2014 season began well, as he produced a 0.97 ERA in the first half. However, after the All Star break Soriano tallied a 6.98 ERA, before being removed from the closer role on September 9.[35]
The Chicago Cubs signed Soriano to a minor league contract on June 9, 2015, with a prorated $2 million salary.[36] He was designated for assignment on September 1 and released on September 4.
On February 28, 2016, Soriano signed a minor league contract with an invite to spring training with the Toronto Blue Jays.[37] Due to visa issues, he was unable to join the Blue Jays for spring training. On March 17, it was reported that Soriano had decided to retire.[38] Soriano made his retirement official on March 20.[39]
Pitching style
Soriano's primary pitch is a four-seam fastball in the 91-94 mph range. He pairs it with a sharp slider in the low-to-mid 80s. Although he used to fairly frequently throw a two-seam fastball and cut fastball, these pitches seem to have mostly disappeared from his repertoire by 2012.[40] He has been referred to as very "deliberate" with his pitching style.[citation needed]
Soriano engages in charity work in his native Boca Chica. He has given money to children to receive surgery, and often buys Christmas presents for the local children.[1]

Early Settlements in West Milford
Extracted from History of Bergen and Passaic Counties, New Jersey…
Compiled by W. Woodford Clayton,
Assisted by Wm. Nelson, 1882, p. 576
Early settlers came into this section long before the Revolution from Germany and other European countries, having been first called here on account of the extensive iron-mines, some of which had been worked early in the eighteenth century.
The Strubels, Schulsters, Vreelands, and the Kanouse families were early settlers within the present territory of this township. John George Kanouse, the ancestor of this family, came from Holland about the year 1720, paying for his passage thither by selling his time and labor for about two years after his arrival. He afterwards owned a thirty-acre tract near the present (1882) residence of John P. Brown, in New Foundland. His son, Jacob Kanouse, was born in 1762, and his daughter Elizabeth, now living (1882), is the mother of John P. Brown, the proprietor of the famous hotel or tavern at New Foundland.
Peter P. Brown, father, and John P. Brown, his son, have kept a hotel here, just on the edge of West Milford township, for more than sixty-five years. Half a century ago this tavern was known far and near. Travelers from two and three hundred miles away, then remote parts of the country, from Pennsylvania and the southern ranges of counties in the State of New York, making their long journeys in private conveyances, before the advent of railroads, journeyed long and late to reach this favorite stopping-place. Hunters and pleasure-seekers resorted thither, and many are the stories of the good cheer with "mine host" in the olden time.

Kenya Airways boosts its aircraft fleet with two deliveries on Mashujaa Day
Kenya Airways has received two new modern aircrafts with state-of-the-art features, bringing the number of its active aircrafts to 40.
The airline's first next generation B737-800 touched down at Kenya Airways' hub at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi on Sunday (October 19, 2014) at 1200 hours, while its sixth B787 Dreamliner landed this morning (Monday, October 20, 2014).
Kenya Airways' outgoing Group Managing Director and CEO Titus Naikuni said that delivery of the two aircrafts is a continuation of the airline's ongoing fleet renewal programme.
"This year has seen tremendous growth in our fleet. This is the year we began adding our flagship aircraft, the modern Dreamliners, onto our fleet. This delivery marks a new chapter for us as we begin acquiring the newer model B737-800 to replace the existing ones. These new aircrafts not only brings down the average age of our fleet significantly, but also boosts our capability. This will enable us to introduce new flights, besides increasing frequency on existing ones," Dr Naikuni.
On his part, the Chairman of the Kenya Airways' Board of Directors Evanson Mwaniki, who was on the B787 Dreamliner said: "I am excited to be witnessing this modernization of the Kenya Airways' fleet. This paves way for us to continue playing our strategic role of facilitating sustainable development in Africa by opening up the continent to the rest of the world and enabling connectivity among African countries".
Kenya Airways expects two more B737 aircrafts this year, in addition to three more B787 Dreamliner aircrafts in 2015.
The B737-800 is the first of Kenya Airways' such aircrafts with Boeing Sky Interior. The airline expects four more such aircrafts. The Boeing 737-800 aircraft is the best-selling version of the successful Next-Generation 737 family. It is known for its reliability, fuel efficiency and economic performance.

Showboat Atlantic City Converting More Guest Rooms to Studio Apartments
December 24, 2022 by Mr. Senta
The Showboat Atlantic City Hotel continues to undergo changes. Four years after the former Boardwalk casino hotel received local approval to convert 400 guestrooms into 264 residential units, owner Bart Blatstein is doubling down on his residential bet.

Blatstein acquired the Showboat in early 2016 from Stockton University for just $23 million. Casino gaming ceased at the property when former owner Caesars Entertainment permanently shuttered the resort in August 2014.
Though the Showboat casino was profitable at the time, Caesars decided to close the property to ease market saturation for its three other casinos in town — Caesars, Harrah's, and Tropicana. Caesars placed a deed restriction on the building that prevents it from being used again as a casino.
The deed restriction has prevented Blatstein from returning gaming to the New Orleans-themed resort. The Philadelphia-based real estate developer and owner of Tower Investments has gotten creative in keeping the Showboat profitable despite lacking a casino floor.
Along with reutilizing former casino guest rooms for private residences, Blatstein is building an indoor water park next to his Atlantic City hotel on what was formerly outdoor beach volleyball courts. Blatstein has also invested in what's billed as the largest arcade in the country.
Now, Blatstein wants to transform more of his property's hotel rooms into private dwellings.
CRDA Approval
During its meeting this week, the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA) signed off on allowing Blatstein to reconfigure another 308 Showboat hotel rooms into apartments. The CRDA has planning and development authority over Atlantic City's Tourism District.
Blatstein says the project will result in 312 studio apartments. But aside from that, details on the renovation are slim.
There was no word as to how long the construction would take, nor when it would start. Blatstein also did not comment on whether the residencies would be rentals or offered for sale.
The Showboat's initial apartment conversions have been offered for long-term stays. Weekly rates for apartments at the Showboat begin at $1,300 for a studio, $1,800 for a one-bedroom, and $2,400 for a two-bedroom.
Apartment rentals, the Showboat says, come with many of the hotel's amenities, including access to the rooftop pool, complimentary self-parking, housekeeping service, 24-hour concierge service, linen and towel service, on-site maintenance, and laundry. Showboat residents are also afforded bike rentals and bike storage, and each residence comes fully furnished with its own kitchen.
Bader Field Pitch
Blatstein remains optimistic about the future of Atlantic City, and he's betting on nongaming to keep the beachfront town vibrant. Along with his Showboat overhaul and water park development, Blatstein recently pitched the Atlantic City and New Jersey governments a multibillion-dollar plan to redevelop Bader Field.
Blatstein, with state and local approval, says he would embark on a $3 billion plan to redevelop the former airport complex into a mixed-use residential complex called "Casa Mar."
The Casa Mar plan includes 10,000 residential units, retail and office space, and a 20-acre public park. Canals would intersect the residential areas to allow for more waterfront living.
But Atlantic City has another competing bid for Bader Field. A group called DEEM Enterprises has proposed a $2.7 billion redevelopment of the grounds that would also feature residential housing in a mixed-use community. The project would be highlighted by a "world-class motor course."
The state is tasked with determining the winning bid. New Jersey retains control of Atlantic City's governance. The state's takeover was initiated in 2016 to reign in runaway expenses, high taxes, and poor governance of the seaside gaming resort town.

BBB recommends Alok Choudhary for the position of SBI Managing Director
The head hunter for directors of state banks and financial institutions also recommended A Manimekhalai, Ajay Kumar Srivastava and Swaroop Kumar Saha for the MD position of Union Bank of India, Indian Overseas Bank and Punjab & Sind Bank, respectively.
The Banks Board Bureau (BBB) on Wednesday recommended the name of Alok Kumar Choudhary for the post of director of State Bank of India.
The Bureau interviewed 21 candidates and selected Alok Kumar Choudhary for the position of general manager of SBI based on their performance, BBB said in a statement.
Choudhary, who is Deputy Director (Finance), will replace Ashwini Bhatia, who has been appointed a full-time member of Sebi.
Before that, he was the general manager of the Delhi region for three years.
The final decision on the appointment will be made by the cabinet's nomination committee headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
BBB is headed by former Human Resources and Training Secretary BP Sharma.
The Prime Minister approved the creation of BBB in 2016 as a body of distinguished professionals and officers to make recommendations for the appointment of full-time directors and non-executive chairmen of public sector banks (PSBs).
It was also charged with the task of collaborating with the board of directors of all PSBs to formulate appropriate strategies for their growth and development.
In addition, they were asked to frame the strategy discussion on consolidation on the basis of need. The government wanted to encourage bank boards to restructure their business strategy and also propose ways for consolidation and merger with other banks.

In the heart of Tuscany, the Antica Canonica is on a country estate surrounded on all sides by beautiful unspoilt countryside. The historical residence, which origins can be traced back to the eleventh Century, has been recently fully restored and has a rich and interesting history. Originally a watch tower built in 1048, the building became the property of the church who transformed it into a Bishops residence and a medieval farming hamlet, later still the house and its grounds was used as a country retreat for many noble Counts and Dukes of the region.
The tiny hamlet was eventually abandoned, but now it has been lovingly restored, preserving its ancient heritage. The original characteristics of the building have all been retained, beautiful high vaulted ceilings, archways, terracotta floors are all featured and the old beautiful fire-places keep the old glamour and suggest the idea that the time has stopped.

BATON ROUGE -- Just like the Louisiana Legislature as a whole, members of the Terrebonne-Lafourche delegation are divided on a bill that would allow motorcycle riders over the age of 18 to opt out of wearing a helmet.
The long-time debate�s latest incarnation surfaced Thursday in the House, when lawmakers voted 55-39 to advance the proposal, with the caveat that unprotected riders buy more insurance.
Former Gov. Mike Foster first eliminated the mandatory helmet law in 1999, but his successor, Gov. Kathleen Blanco, repealed the exemption in 2004.
It now appears Gov. Bobby Jindal, a Foster prot�g�, may have the opportunity to put the exemption back on the books.
House Bill 1295 was framed as an issue of "freedom" by sponsoring Rep. Mert Smiley, R-St. Amant.
It�s the same debate the Legislature has held over the past nine years, except this time there�s a provision in the bill requiring riders without helmets to secure at least $100,000 worth of insurance to cover costs associated with wrecks.
Smiley opposed the amendment, arguing that it could kill his bill and that motorcycle accidents account for only 0.001 percent of total medical costs in the U.S.
"Are the rest dead?" asked Rep. Jerry "Truck" Gisclair, D-Larose.
"Did you know it�s safer to wear a helmet?" Gisclair questioned again.
"I would like to make it your choice," Smiley said.
Gisclair, along with Rep. Damon Baldone, D-Houma, voted against the legislation.
Rep. Joe Harrison, R-Napoleonville, whose district includes parts of Assumption, St. Mary and Terrebonne, said the sometimes-emotional debate was much ado about nothing.
"There�s more head injuries for bicycles riders, snow skiers, water skiers, skateboard riders, gymnasts and cheerleaders than there are for motorcycle riders," he said. "Should we have the state indemnify all of them?"
Harrison, along with Rep. Jerome "Dee" Richard of Thibodaux, who has no party affiliation, voted for the bill. Rep. Gordon Dove, R-Houma, still recovering from open-heart surgery, was absent.
The proposal now heads to the Senate for further debate, where there is stiff opposition.
Senate President Joel Chaisson, D-Destrehan, who represents portions of Lafourche Parish, has already come out against the bill.
When Blanco pushed her own legislation requiring all riders to wear motorcycle helmets in 2004, Sens. Reggie Dupre, D-Bourg, and Butch Gautreaux, D-Morgan City, who represent both Terrebonne and Lafourche parishes, voted in favor of the requirement.

Africa prepares mechanisms against disasters
afrol News, 15 April - African governments are set to adopt new mechanisms and strategies to reduce the risks of disaster hits on the continent. A newly adopted programme seeks to make places such as schools, hospitals and clinics and African cities safer against disasters.
This was agreed as delegates from 42 countries in Africa, which along with Asia is the most vulnerable continent to disasters, kicked off a United Nations-backed meeting in Nairobi yesterday to discuss ways to make their communities and citizens safer.
Over the past 30 years, over 700,000 people in Africa have been killed and more than 300 million others affected by more than 1,800 disasters, according to fresh statistics from the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED).
The second Africa Ministerial Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction brought together more than 170 delegates representing government, regional economic communities, donors, academia, UN agencies and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to discuss an issue that is seen as vital to the continent's future.
"As the 2009 Global Assessment Report on disaster risk reduction indicates, people's exposure to disasters is growing at a faster rate than risk reducing capacities are being strengthened," said Margareta Wahlstr�m, the Secretary-General's Special Representative for Disaster Risk Reduction. One of the main reasons behind this fact is Africa's fast population growth, and increased density in population in risk areas.
Participants at the three-day meeting were set to discuss and adopt an updated version of the Programme of Action for the Implementation of the Africa Regional Strategy for Disaster Risk Reduction and concrete measures for the period 2006-2015, as well as specific areas of interventions, expected results and measurable indicators to monitor progress.
They were expected to define mechanisms and identify resources to help implement the African Strategy and Programme of Action, prioritising investments that will contribute to making cities safer against disasters.
Ms Wahlstr�m noted that regional mechanisms such as the African Strategy and the Programme of Action were the best tools to address new challenges and avoid disasters on the continent, which was said to be likely to be more affected by climate-related hazards such as droughts, flooding and storms in the future.
The event, organised by the African Union Commission, the government of Kenya and the UN International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (ISDR), in collaboration with the World Bank, takes place in parallel with the First Ministerial Conference of Ministers Responsible for Meteorology in Africa, also taking place from 12 to 16 April.

2020 graduates get an opportunity to walk
Credit: Cleveland State University
President Harlan Sands at Cleveland State University's spring 2021 commencement.
2020 graduates had a virtual graduation last year, but now can walk proudly in a December commencement.
Graduates across the country last year had to celebrate in their homes due to COVID-19 removing the chance of an in-person ceremony. Many graduates were crushed to know they would miss the long-awaited moment of recognition that they had earned their degree.
Cleveland State University is attempting to remedy that this fall. It has announced it will hold a commencement ceremony for 2020 graduates on Dec. 12, 2021. While this is exciting news, it is hard because many graduates have moved on with their lives and may not be able to join the celebration.
Graduates have until Oct. 31st to RSVP for the ceremony, but many still do not know if they will be able to attend this soon considering they have other life obligations.
Students are happy about the offer, but they also wish it was sooner or had been at the spring 2021 commencement.
"I am glad that 2020 grads will finally get a chance to walk although it feels strange as an alum," said Hayley Semrau, a 2020 graduate.
"It feels weird already walking in 2021, I think they should have held the graduation for 2020 sooner," said Armonie Pope, another 2020 graduate. "I definitely believe they should have let 2020 graduates walk this past May instead of December. I feel it's backwards".
Many of them are making changes to their schedules to be in attendance and celebrate their accomplishments in-person. After graduation, graduates started new lives and careers in many different states.
"I have not decided yet if I will be attending. Life is very different for me now than it was when I graduated," said Semrau. "Graduations are great to celebrate your hard work during the semester and since this was so long ago it feels weird celebrating now."
"Yes I will be in attendance," said Pope.
2020 graduates have until the end of October to decide if they will attend December's event. If you are a 2020 graduate and want to know more, you will find the form to RSVP here.

Samuel J. Friedman Theater

Functions: Live Theatre
Previous Names: Chanin's Biltmore Theatre, Biltmore Theatre
President Theatre
Night Shift Theatre
777 Theatre
Walter Kerr Theatre
One of six legitimate theatres built by the Chanin Brothers, the Biltmore Theatre opened on December 7, 1925. It has one balcony. The historic Soviet-era film "The Battleship Potemkin", with live orchestral accompaniment, premiered in December, 1926, and was presented on a reserved-seat basis. "The Battleship Potemkin", one of the greatest of cinema classics is the acme of the career of director Sergei Eisenstein, and unveiled his sophisticated editing techniques which were to revolutionize the industry. Landmark plays presented here include "Brother Rat", "My Sister Eileen", "Kiss and Tell", "No Exit", "The Heiress", "Billy Budd", "Barefoot in the Park", "Hair", and "Deathtrap".
The Biltmore Theatre was little used in the 1980's and was sold to a developer. In December 1987, just two days after the interior had been given Landmark designation, arsonists set fires on the stage and inside the auditorium. Vandalised over the following years, the theatre was declared unsafe.
In 1993, the Biltmore Theatre was purchased by the Nederlander Organisation, but after four years of inactivity, they sold it on. It was eventually renovated in 2006, and the Manhattan Theater Club has produced the theater's offerings since then.

The a large number of the remaining Broadway theatres have had some film in their history but have yet to be added to the CT roster.

My wife and I saw a play here earlier today. The theater is in wonderful shape and is a great place to see either a play or a movie. Due to the recent renovation, the capacity has been reduced to 650. The additional legroom provided was especially appreciated by this long limbed person.
Although the American premiere of the Potemkin was clearly a notable – even an historic – event, I agree that this lone cinematic experience provides a pretty thin justification for the inclusion of this theater on this site. Still, since this was an event that should clearly be noted – and even celebrated – in CT, unless some separate recognition can be provided, I would keep it in.
johndereszewski on March 9, 2010 at 5:37 pm
That was a fascinating post, Tinseltoes, that clearly underlines the problematic nature of devoting a page to this theater. (Also, given the fact that only the Biltmore ever hosted a movie here and that the Friedman, with its really deep stage, will very likely only be a live theater venue, the name should definitely be changed to the Biltmore if it is not removed from this site.)
This also brings up the question of including venues that only host occasional cinamatic events. I noticed that, at least for now, there is no CT page dedicated to Alica Tully Hall, even though this theater, for several weeks each year, hosts one of this country's most important film festivals. Certainly, if we are to include the Friedman/Biltmore, we must do the same for Tully Hall. But where should we draw the line?

(New York Times) Theater Fire Damages Interior of the Biltmore Theater By ESTHER IVEREM, December 11, 1987
The interior of the Biltmore Theater in Manhattan, which recently received landmark designation, was damaged by fire early yesterday in a blaze that officials say was deliberately set.
At about 2:30 A.M., firefighters responded to an alarm set off by a sprinkler system at the theater, at 261 West 47th Street. Firefighters found the stage and a portion of the orchestra seating ablaze. Heat damaged the ornate plaster ceiling, sending some slabs falling 60 feet to the floor.
"The chief at the scene has deemed the fire suspicious," said a spokesman for the Fire Department, Lieut. Frank Martinez. "There was a flammable substance poured onto the stage."
According to the police, there is evidence that someone broke into the 948-seat theater, which has not been used since the musical "Stardust" closed in May. Hypodermic needles were found inside the theater, indicating that drug users may have been using it as a shooting gallery, and storage lockers had been rifled.
Vagrants and Squatters
No one was seen fleeing the building at the time of the fire, said a Police Department spokesman, Det. Joseph K. McConville.
Lieutenant Martinez said, however, that there has recently been a problem with vagrants and squatters breaking into the building.
One month ago, the city's Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the interior of the 52-year-old theater as a city landmark, protecting it against demolition or alteration. The commission praised the Biltmore's detailed and refined neo-classical architecture.
The commission is still considering designation of the exterior of the theater.
According to city records, the Biltmore is owned by Murray Hill Investments, represented by Sam Pfeiffer, whose address was listed as Madison Investments in Manhattan. There is no phone listing for Murray Hill Investments or Mr. Pfeiffer, and the telephone for Madison Investments has been disconnected.
Lillian Ayala, a spokeswoman for the Landmarks Commission, said that despite fire damage, the building's interior would retain its protected status. Any reconstruction would be reviewed by the commission.
Al Alvarez on February 1, 2014 at 4:17 pm
The address should be 261 West 47th Street.

This dialogue's purpose is two-fold: first, for each participant to learn from the other so that he or she can understand and grow; second, for each participating adult to learn from the young what they think, what their concerns are, and how they deal with differing points of view. We feel that this commitment to dialogue will affect relationships in a constructive way in our places of worship and in our community.

Don't panic if you dip into McDonald's for a treat and find your favorite taro, banana or haupia "pie" gone. They'll be back. Try the new blueberry instead. Cherry is coming up in June. Taro comes back in July and haupia in mid-September. McDonald's likes to change it up and, except for the standard apple, which is always on the menu, they make seasonal and regional changes every few months. The blueberry features the same guilt-inducing crispy, bubbled pastry. These aren't true pies, of course, but more like a stuffed pastry fritter — a rectangle of pastry folded over a fruit filling and deep-fried. They go for a buck.

Q: Spring & Hibernate - Make native queries run in the same transaction as @Transactional Is it possible to create native queries that make use of an existing transaction created via @Transactional?
Most of the questions here seem to be about making native queries at all. Also, answers such as the one from Spring + Hibernate Transaction -- Native SQL rollback failure suggest it might not be possible.
What I do to test the isolation is to run some deletes and add a breakpoint to investigate the database.
Here is what I tried so far:
@Transactional(value = "someManager")
public class SpringJpaSomeDao implements SomeDao {

@PersistenceContext(unitName = "someUnit")
@Qualifier("entityManagerFactorySome")
private EntityManager em;

@Resource
@Qualifier("someManager")
private PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager;

@Override
@Transactional(value = "someManager", propagation = Propagation.SUPPORTS)
public void runNative(String sql){
    TransactionTemplate transactionTemplate = new TransactionTemplate(transactionManager);
    transactionTemplate.setPropagationBehavior(TransactionDefinition.PROPAGATION_SUPPORTS);
    transactionTemplate.execute(new TransactionCallbackWithoutResult() {

        @Override

        protected void doInTransactionWithoutResult(TransactionStatus status) {

            em.createNativeQuery(sql).executeUpdate();

        }

    });

}

Some part of the persistence.xml
<persistence-unit name="someUnit" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
    <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
    <non-jta-data-source>java:comp/env/jdbc/someDS</non-jta-data-source>
    <!-- some classes here -->
    <exclude-unlisted-classes>true</exclude-unlisted-classes>
    <properties>
        <!-- some dialect -->
    </properties>
</persistence-unit>

The code is invoked from some controller which also has @Transactional annotations giving the deletes to the Dao.
@Transactional(value = "someManager", propagation = Propagation.SUPPORTS)
public void deleteEntireDatabase() {

    List<String> deletions = new ArrayList<>();
    deletions.add("DELETE FROM something;");

    for (String currentDeletion : deletions) {
        someDao.runNative(currentDeletion);
    }

}

@Override
@Transactional(value = "someManager", propagation = Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW, rollbackFor = {Exception.class})
public void deleteAndFill(JobExecutionProgress progress) {
    deleteEntireDatabase();
    // more code
}

Excerpt from spring-dao.xml:
<tx:annotation-driven  />

<bean id="entityManagerFactorySome" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
    <property name="dataSource" ref="someDataSource" />
    <property name="persistenceUnitName" value="someUnit" />
    <property name="jpaProperties">
        <props>
            <!-- some dialect -->
        </props>
    </property>
</bean>

<bean id="someDao" class="xyz.model.controller.SpringJpaSomeDao"/>

<bean id="someManager" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager">
    <property name="entityManagerFactory" ref="entityManagerFactorySome" />
    <qualifier value="someManager"></qualifier>
</bean>

<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.support.PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor" />

Of course, I also tried some variations such as different Propagations, and using the entityManager obtained from elsewhere:
    EntityManagerFactory emf = ((JpaTransactionManager) transactionManager).getEntityManagerFactory();

    EntityManager em2 = EntityManagerFactoryUtils.getTransactionalEntityManager(emf);

Now, what I will do if everything else fails is manual transaction management.
Is this something that has worked for one of your applications or is it unknown if this might be a setup problem?

A: Actually, it turns out the alter table statements mentioned in the comment seem to have been the problem. Not sure how resetting the auto_increment can empty the table, but that seemed to be the case.

Today's dynamically changing Business Environment requires effective and efficient management decisions from Senior Management. Quick validation of internal/external demands, assessing the possible contributions, identification of priorities as well as getting demands to be implemented are the key indicators that mostly differentiates organizations in their competition.
According to McKinsey the Demand Management is hot topic due to decreasing possibilities of long-term strategic planning. The inputs for Strategic planning are being changed faster than ever and it is a risky business to decide according to the inputs that have already changed.
As a reaction to the Business dynamics, companies are continuously trying to adopt changing conditions that impacts the Product definitions and Sales processes. In the process of innovation it is often a case the Departments require isolated changes without central consolidation. Moreover, the amount and scope of IT related requirements is far exceeding the capacity of the potential realization. Undefined priorities and unconsolidated requirements causes inefficient assignments of IT Resources and real priorities are held back untouched.
The way the Business and IT communicate is the key for the success in the Management of Requirements. Creating the Senior Management guidance, elimination of the communication conflicts, achieving mutual agreements and general acceptance of both sides are the crucial tasks for organizations when implementing Demand Management.

"no way" he'll recognize Israel as a Jewish state – Abbas
Mar 7, 2014 1830 Viewed Jacob Martin Comments Off on "no way" he'll recognize Israel as a Jewish state – Abbas
West Bank – The Palestinian President says there's "no way" he'll recognize Israel as a Jewish state and accept just a portion of Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem as the Palestinian capital.
Palestinians fear the two demands will be key elements of a U.S. peace proposal.
Mahmoud Abbas says in comments published on Friday by the official WAFA news agency that he withstood U.S. pressure when he sought U.N. recognition for a state of Palestine and suggested he could do so again.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is to present ideas for the contours of a deal to Mr. Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Gaps between the sides remain wide after seven months of Mr. Kerry's mediation, and a framework by an April 29 deadline appears elusive.

The Lake Argyle Swim is an annual open water swim in Lake Argyle, Western Australia. Two distances are offered for solos, 2-person, and 4-person teams: 20 kilometers from Hagan Island to Bamboo Cove near the Lake Argyle Resort; and 10 kilometers from a buoy near Bullanyin Island to the resort. Water temperatures in May are from 22-26C.


Last November, students and volunteers planted dozens of trees in the Carver neighborhood just north of the Monroe Park Campus at Virginia Commonwealth University. With the aim of making the community greener and more walkable, the project was the first endeavor of the Urban Forestry Collaborative, a community-engaged research project out of VCU.
But the more than 70 trees planted in Carver provide more than just visual appeal for the community. They will offset VCU's carbon footprint — representing one piece of the university's commitment to environmental stewardship. As part of this commitment, by 2025 VCU aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 17 percent below 2008 levels. The university's ultimate goal is to offset all of its carbon usage, otherwise known as being carbon neutral, by 2050.
The green approach has manifested in various ways at the downtown university, including the addition of water bottle refilling stations in more than 30 campus buildings and the more than 2,000 pounds of textiles recycled since 2010 by the department of fashion design. In addition, more than 40 students live in the university's EcoVillage, a community for students who want to learn sustainable personal practices.
VCU isn't the only university taking on greener approaches; colleges around the country are figuring out ways to be more sustainable. In the summer of 2018, the University of Richmond announced plans to build a 20-megawatt solar energy facility, making it the first college or university in the Southeast to match 100 percent of its electricity needs with solar energy. Like VCU, UR aims to offset all carbon emissions by 2050.
When Eric McKay and Patrick Murtaugh, co-founders of Richmond's Hardywood Park Craft Brewery, decided to go into business in 2011, there was no question that they would seek an environmentally conscious approach. The pair have known each other since childhood and were inspired by spending time together outdoors.
The green approach is top-down at Hardywood, where locally sourced ingredients from honey to wheat and barley are combined in energy-efficient brew kettles. The company's electricity sources are renewable, coming from solar, wind and biomass energy.
In addition, Hardywood has raised more than $50,000 for the James River Association through proceeds from the sale of The Great Return beer, an IPA named for efforts by conservationists to restore the James as an eco-friendly body of water, and for the return of the Atlantic sturgeon, an endangered species of fish that was previously abundant in the river.
Some of the efforts to be environmentally responsible come at a cost, McKay says, but it's a creed from which he and his partner refuse to back down. To have it any other way would change the business at its core.
The pair also believe this approach makes for a more meaningful experience for beer drinkers.
Ellwood Thompson's, a natural-foods grocer, has a similar environmental approach and a consumer base that is just as committed. For its nearly 30 years in business, the locally focused market has sourced the most responsibly produced products available within 100 miles of its location at the western end of Carytown. It also emphasizes the fair treatment of farm workers and the protection of animal welfare through the products it sells.
The company views its role as a hub for people who feel a responsibility as stewards of the planet as central to its mission, says Marketing Director Colin Beirne, despite it sometimes having a negative effect on the bottom line.
Ellwood's uses no plastics and has solar panels on its roof to offset the reliance on electric lights. Customers who use alternative methods to travel to the location — as opposed to a car — get an environmental credit on what they spend.
These kinds of innovations are instrumental as the Richmond community works to battle climate change and its dangerous ramifications. The classrooms of VCU, the breweries of Hardywood and the shelves of Ellwood Thompson's are among the front lines for the fight.

Dental Center of Jacksonville is here for you and your family. We show our commitment by staying open later than most dental offices, being here on the weekends, and by accepting many dental insurance plans. Dr. Jignesh Patel is pleased to be your Aetna dentist in Jacksonville! That's great news for your smile -- and your wallet.
Dental insurance plans work like medical insurance, except with more of a focus on prevention. By making the services that contribute to lasting oral wellness free or greatly reduced, you can avoid the need for more costly, complex care later on. If you do need restorative treatment at some point, your insurance will cover a significant portion of your care.
Visiting an in-network dentist is important for making the most out of your plan. Because Dental Center of Jacksonville is in-network with your Aetna plan, you will receive your discounted care right off the bat. You may still be eligible for the same savings when you visit an out-of-network dentist, but you will have to pay the full amount out of pocket first, file a claim, and then wait for reimbursement on the backend.
Premium: The amount of money you regularly pay (usually monthly) in exchange for your dental services.
Deductible: The amount you must reach before your insurance will take effect. Preventive care usually falls outside of the deductible and is covered no matter what.
Annual maximum: The amount above which your dental insurance will not pay for care. During the years you meet your deductible, you will also want to meet or get very close to your annual maximum.
Because six month checkups and cleanings are the cornerstone of every healthy, long-lasting smile, your dental insurance should fully cover these appointments, as well as other preventive services like X-rays, fluoride treatments, and sometimes dental sealants for children. Staying on top of these regular visits is important for making the most out of your investment in dental insurance.
During a checkup and cleaning, our hygiene team will clean off all the plaque and tartar that has had the chance to build up on your teeth since your last visit. We will also capture X-rays for your doctor to examine. Dr. Patel will then take a thorough look at your teeth and surrounding oral structures, checking for the warning signs of tooth decay, gum disease, worn dental work, and even oral cancer. If any issues are detected during this portion of the exam, we will put together a plan for prompt restorative treatment, like a crown and bridge, filling, dental implant, or other any other necessary service.
Make Dental Center of Jacksonville Your Dentist!
The best way to make the most out of your dental insurance plan is by visiting an in-network dentist. Dental Center of Jacksonville accepts your Aetna benefits! Request an appointment with your dentists today.

The Hottest Photos Of Kacy Catanzaro
Celebrity Ass, Celebrity Bikini, Celebrity Boobs, Hot Celebrities 14 Views
Kacy Catanzaro is an American wrestler that also competes in extremely challenging obstacle course competitions. The wrestler is of Italian descent, and Kacy Catanzaro is a small woman who stands 5 feet tall and only weighs 95 pounds. During her younger years, she was a gymnast with the National Collegiate Athletic Association. The pro-wrestler was born in New Jersey on 14 January 1990 in a new family of five. Kacy would show signs of athleticism at an early age and start training as a gymnast at five years old. Training at an early age would give Catanzaro the advantage of experience since she had taken part in a ton of gymnastic competitions, where college scouts would spot her and offer her a scholarship. She accepted the Division 1 type scholarship from Towson University and spent her collegiate years representing the institution in many NCAA meets.
She is also the first female participant to have qualified for the finale of the 'American Ninja Warrior' leading sports competition and currently the only woman to have completed the show's city area finals event. Her success has bagged her the adoration of Ninja Warrior fans and the label Mighty Kacy. In the Japanese competition Sasuke Year 32, Kacy Catanzaro also demonstrated her abilities. The hot lady co-hosted a TV show called Team Ninja Warrior College Madness as a step into furthering her professional life.
She is also the managing partner of an obstacle course gymnasium. Kacy Catanzaro went to try her luck at a World Wrestling Entertainment tryout event at the Orlando WWE Training Center in the early months of 2017. Later that year, the wrestling federation would announce Catanzaro as their newest recruit. In early 2018, the WWE Diva had made her first appearance in the WWE ring at an NXT live event. After her incredible performances in the 2018 Mae Young Classic and the 2019 Women's Royal Rumble Match, Catanzaro has intensified her world-class athletic ability and lightning-quick speed, leaving the World of WWE in awe.
These sexy images of Kacy Catanzaro will make you wonder how someone could be so stunning. She is genuinely a scorching hot girl, and with her physique, it is no wonder that Kacy Catanzaro can pull off any racy outfit. Strong and sexy would be the two words that describe her best. In the gallery, there are also curated shots of Kacy wearing bikinis and swimsuits. We will show you pictures of Kacy Catanzaro on the red carpet. You will also find photos of the female wrestler at the beach in a bikini and some from her promotional and magazine shots that show off her perfect boobs and ass. We will even show you some of Kacy's professional wrestling images and stills of the stunner training at the gym.

"In probably it's only public viewing in New Zealand the Bell P-39 AIRACOBRA that has been beautifully rebuilt at Pioneer Aero Ltd will be on DISPLAY at the New Zealand Warbirds Armistice Day Open Day Sunday 18th November.
Avoid the entrance queues and pre-purchase your tickets on-line at www.iticket.co.nz/events/2018/nov/armistice-open-day."
"IF it is signed off in time and approved to fly - we may see it fly, but it will definitely be here on static display - Don't miss it !!"
I see that the P-39 is now registered as ZK-COB. Getting closer.
Interesting that it is listed as a P-39F. Up to now it has been referred to as a P-39Q.
Ex Soviet Airforce, recovered circa 1995 being restored to fly as USAAC 220341.
Yes I noted that too.
It will become N39FF when it heads to the US.
The engine was being run outside Pioneer last week, haven't seen it actually moving under its own power yet though.
That was great thank you.
OK I'm not up with current things P-39. So what's the significance of / connection to the Serial Number as now depicted? After a brief search I found plenty about P-39F-1, 41-7215 but no notable service history, theatre of action or the fate of P-39Q-5, 42-20341.
42-20341 may have been the US serial no. of the Red Air Force P-39 raised from a lake near Murmansk in the 1990s.
The aircraft had been ditched in the lake as the result of engine failure, and is part of the restoration.
Thanks for that link. If I'm reading the article correct then 42-20341 originated from New Guinea rather than Russia. This makes some sense.
Joe Baugher has these eight P-39Qs as recovered from Murmansk: 42-20171, 42-20206, 42-20575, 42-20618, 42-21060, 44-2204, 44-2640, 44-32191 so one or more of them may have contributed to the project. Numbers on either side of 20341 are reported as going to USSR. However close by number 42-30339 was one recovered from New Guinea by Tallichet's team. 20341 could have come to Australia from that batch or retrieved separately by another collector.
"recovered from New Guinea by Tallichet's team"
Shorty, another of your recoveries?
'Pacific Wings' has an extensive list of PNG P-39s and P-400s crashed, missing, and salvaged, but 42-20341 is not mentioned.
I believe that the authors of the 'Aviation Report' article quoted in the link may be mistaken.
It is significant, I think, that in the Baugher listing 42-20341 appears in the middle of a bunch of Airacobras that are shown as having gone to Russia.
The tail number the aeroplane wears is not that of the actual machine.
At the time it was painted it was thought to have been a Q model that served in Russia but Jerry just wanted it wearing a standard American paint job so that tail number was picked with no real significance.
Now that all of the actual history of the aeroplane has been mapped out with a data plate to confirm it is indeed an F model but is not the same tail number and at this stage it will not be changed.
Hope that makes sense, the actual serial number is 41-7215.
Speaking of good videos, I'm surprised this one by Paul McSweeny hasn't been posted here yet: ZK-COB lives!
In the videos I've seen, the P-39 has a whine like no other V-1710 machine I've heard.
Doesn't the engine drive shaft run through a gear box, with drive line change to the prop?. Might be the gearbox winding down?
Years and years ago I worked with a guy who had been stationed at or near Henderson Field. Cannot recall if he was with the NZ Army or RNZAF. Probably the latter.
One day we were discussing matters aeronautical and he told me that there was a USAAF P-39 repair and overhaul unit at Henderson Field and he and his colleagues enjoyed watching the Airacobras being 'wrung out' by test pilots before being put back into service. They noticed that during these test flights there was a very audible rasping noise that came from the P-39s when they were being aerobatted. They asked a USAAF serviceman about this one day and were told that the noise was the result of the prop. drive shaft binding owing to the flexing of the fuselage under 'G' loading. Probably nothing to do with the phenomenon above, but I thought you all might find it interesting.

U.S., allies seek to assert relevance at NATO summit
With the Cold War behind them, NATO members gathering here in Lisbon for a summit on Friday will seek to assert their continued relevance.
The future of the Afghan war effort will be a key part of the meeting's agenda, and the nations will also deal with missile defense of NATO territory. The alliance will also adopt a new mission statement, or "strategic concept."
The strategic concept will aim to reinvigorate the NATO alliance 20 years after the end of the Cold War. Calling Lisbon, "one of the most important summits in the history of our alliance," NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen hopes the new global outlook will prove the organization is still relevant.
"No other organization can marshal, deploy and sustain NATO's military power," Rasmussen said last month. "There will be other missions in the future for which only NATO can fit the bill. We will have to be ready."
In an op-ed article Friday in the International Herald Tribune, U.S. President Barack Obama said that the strategic concept recognizes "the capabilities and partners we need to meet the new threats of the 21st century. This must begin by reaffirming the lifeblood of this alliance - our Article 5 commitment that an attack on one is an attack on all."
Obama said alliance command structures need to be reformed "to make them more effective and efficient." He talked about investing "in the technologies that allow allied forces to deploy and operate together effectively, and develop new defenses against threats such as cyber attacks."
"To ensure that this commitment has meaning, we must strengthen the full range of capabilities that are needed to protect our people today and prepare for the missions of tomorrow," Obama wrote.

"MAKERS BY DESIGN? ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND THE EMERGENCE OF THE MAKER MOVE" by Howard E. Aldrich, Russell E. Bowder et al.
The maker movement has been touted by some as the next industrial revolution (Anderson, 2012; Pettis, 2009; Vance 2010) because it seeks to democratize invention (Aldrich, 2014) through providing technology tools in social spaces that lead to "ever-accelerating entrepreneurship and innovation with ever-dropping barriers to entry" (Anderson, 2012). Makerspaces have emerged as shared fabrication facilities, where makers of all types gather to invent, tinker, build, learn, and iterate using a range of manufacturing technologies.

Even though me and my central same race friends always, by means in this content is "always" reunited, drank cup of coffee, chill and shopping together but little part of me still missing Malaysia so bad. Thank god i could feel that feeling once again, last night my previous senior from high school held this mini Malaysia concert held in Imperial college london hall it was whole lot of reminisce. Although I didn't contribute at all, well I do by finishing those chocolate infront of the concierge but I definitely looking forward for the next event oh, and yeah contribute!. Talk about shopping in London, I enjoyably shop in Carnaby street instead of 24 hours crowded oxford street but thought the bargain in there's just like crazy! lucky you if you have either micro or gigantic shoe size, Office shop has your size available in a jiff and good prices for that. I found the blue faux mink fur on bargain in Monki shop which is oh so match with my whole entire outfit so i decided to snap it. Before, I had this shopping paranoia whereas I kept thinking to myself "where am i going to put this stuff if I buy" or "how am i suppose to take care of this crap" im so indecisive at first, hard to spend money on that kind of paranoia but which is pretty good darn thing so I could save up for my journey to Italy. I should write a review on how or what to buy when you're in overseas, stay tuned for that.

Stephanie teaches ancient art and archaeology at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and New York University Berlin. She received her Ph.D. in the History of Art at the University of California Berkeley with a dissertation on Hellenistic and Egyptian motifs in ancient Roman wall painting, titled Egyptian Airs: The Life of Luxury in Roman Wall Painting--the basis of her current book project, supported by a postdoctoral grant at the Getty Villa in 2016-17. Her M.A. thesis at UC Berkeley likewise considered cross-cultural interaction and artistic technique, with a focus on ancient Gandhara (modern Pakistan). Field work around the Mediterranean plays a major role in Stephanie's research—most importantly at Pompeii, where she joined the Via Consolare Project for four years. She has presented her work in numerous national conferences, public lectures, and publications.
Museums count among Stephanie's greatest passions. Her courses in Greek, Etruscan, Roman, and Late Antique art and archaeology draw upon her work at the Berlin Antikensammlung, where she has translated texts and led tours of the Pergamon Museum, Altes Museum, Neues Museum, and Museum Island. Effectively communicating through museum display is a running theme in Stephanie's exhibition reviews and her blog, Ideas on Display.

The eighth Biblical plague that tortured Egypt was a plague of locusts.
Flip the aforementioned "they" from locusts to cicadas, and that's actually a pretty apt description of what residents in some parts of Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia will experience next month when the soil warms to 64 degrees and billions of cicadas rise from the ground to mate.
This particular group of insects has a 17-year-life cycle that begins underground and culminates in the air as they swell and swarm and scream and sing, issuing deafening cries as the males desperately seek mates. This current 17-year-cycle, which began in 1999, begins to end next month, reports Cicada Mania.
As billions of insects emerge, they can reach a density of 1.5 million cicadas an acre in some areas.
The insects have hard, sleek shells topped with two bulb-like, red eyes. On average, they're a little over 1.5 inches in length and, don't worry, they don't bite or sting, according to the United States Department of Agriculture.
The adults live above ground, and the only thing that interests them is mating and laying eggs (much like salmon during the famed salmon run). They don't even stop to eat.
Anyone who has experienced a swarm likely remembers the noise.
"It feels like an alien spaceship coming in," Arlington, Va., resident Gene Miller told Snyder.
That sound, the melodic, almost frightening buzzing, wakes with the sun in the early morning and continues late into the night. The droning is a mating cry sung by males, as they try to find willing females before their 17-year-old lives conclude.
When they do, according to Ohio State University professor of entomology David Shetlar, the nymphs then fall from the trees and burrow anywhere from six to 18 inches in the ground, where they feed on juices from plant roots for 13 or 17 years, depending on what species they are.
Females can lay up to 400 eggs each, across 40 to 50 sites.
There are several "broods" of cicadas, which is based on which cycle they're part of. Most of these broods are comprised of different species of cicada, and different broods emerge and swarm around different parts to the country (in different years).
These broods have been tracked since the 1800s, according to the USDA's 1907 book "The Periodical Cicada" by C.L. Marlatt.
On top of that, there are several types of cicada life cycles. Some have 13-year life spans, and some are even annual, according to Auburn University's Department of Entomology.
In fact, Brood II, which consists of cicadas on a 17-year cycle, overtook Washington, DC, in 2014, The Post reported.
The one emerging in May is Brood V, which includes Magicicada septendecim, Magicicada cassini and Magicicada septendecula, The Star Beacon reported.
According to the USDA, Brood V comprises the largest swarms that are seen in either Ohio or West Virginia, and some Ohioans are taking advantage of the occasion.
Cleveland Metroparks, in particular, is hosting a plethora of educational events centered around the event.
