Each year WSCDC uses National Public Safety Telecommunications Week as a focal point for the selection of the WSCDC Telecommunicator of the Year. This year we received nominations for five individuals as Telecommunicator of the Year. They are Marita Jorgensen, Mandy McCulloch, Louise Pruitt, George Stimac and Dan Sutherland. I am sure each of them recognizes the honor just to receive a nomination especially when it is from your peers. Each of them was encouraged to continue to work and build upon this recognition. Out of the five nominees Mandy McCulloch was selected as the 2007 Telecommunicator of the Year for WSCDC.

The Oelwein based dispatchers worked out of this building and I think it also had some yard management offices as well. Yard switching operations were overseen by the tower.

I used this lens with very closed focus setting. The nature of bokeh is different. I used this concept for all the picture. Tried to keep some strong light source esp with strong red and green hue.
This picture is captured with "Meniscus Achromat Vest Pocket Kodak" camera lens. The lens is 2-element single group used directly on Canon DSLR 350D.

Immediately below Albion, the Strother home, of which we have written, was the ancestral home of the Alexanders, throught the Cassons, called Snowden. This estate first belonged to Captain Thomas Casson, whose wife was Sarah Bruce. His only child abnd heiress, Sarah Casson, married William Pearson Alexander and at the death of the Cassons, Sarah Alexander heired "Snowden," and henceforward it was the home of the Alexanders.
John Alexander was the emigrant, and he settled in Northhampton county, taking up a grant of 1,500 acres. he had three sons -- John (2), died without issue; Robert (2) and Phillip (2). The emigrant died in 1677, and in 1669 Robert Howson, "being seized of 6,000 acres on Great Hunting Creek, in Stafford county, by his will gave 500 acres of it to John Alexander." On this land, near Mount Vernon, arose the city of Alexandria, named for this family. Robert (2) Alexander, the eldest son of the emigrant, married Frances (surname unknown), and had John (4), Gerard (4), Sarah (4) and Parthenia (4). John (4), born 1711, married in 1731 Susann, daughter of Thomas Pearson, gentleman, and had Charles (5), John (5), Simon (5), Robert (5), Thomas (5), William (5), Ann (5), and Elizabeth (5).
