1887 Queen Anne Listed on the National Register of Historical places, the ''Shea House'' is a unique expression of the Queen Anne Style (the only one in Council Bluffs).

  

John Joseph Shea was born in 1859 near the village of Business Corners in Van Buren County. His parents were John Shea and Ellen Flynn Shea, natives of County Kerry, Ireland. It is not known if there were other children.

 

In the 1860s, the family moved to Jefferson County, where John helped his father on the farm and attended country school. He was an exceptional student. Having no further education beyond what he received in the country school and county institutes, he qualified as a teacher.

     

At a very young age, he taught school near Neola. With money he made teaching and working at part time jobs, he was able to enter law school at the University of Iowa, graduating in 1882. He began the practice of law in Neola as a member of the firm of McWilliams and Shea.

  

Agnes Mary Fenlon was born in 1860 in Illinois. Her father, James Fenlon, was born in Ireland; her mother was born in Pennsylvania. Other family members were her sister, Nellie, and her brother, James. Agnes taught school at the Center Street School in Council Bluffs. The St. Patrick parish (Neola) centennial book commemorating the construction of the church recognizes Mr. and Mrs. James Fenlon and the children of James Fenlon as donors of large windows in the church.

  

John Shea and Agnes Fenlon were married on Nov. 21, 1883, in Neola. A short time after their marriage, John was elected to the office of clerk of the district court of Pottawattamie County and he and Agnes became residents of Council Bluffs. He completed his term in 1889 and returned to the practice of law – this time in Council Bluffs. He formed a partnership with his boyhood friend, John Galvin. The firm Shea & Galvin was located in the Merriam Block.

  

The Sheas were the parents of six children: Florence (born in 1885), Elizabeth (1886), Elsie (1887), John J. (1890), Agnes (1892) and Thomas Fenlon (1894). In 1886, their address was 712 S. Eighth St.

  

On July 5, 1887, an announcement in The Nonpareil read: “Yesterday morning, County Clerk Shea broke ground for his handsome new residence on Eighth Street, immediately south of Capt. Geo. Brown’s residence. Wickham Bros. have the contract for the brick work and J.H. Murphy for the carpenter work.” (Agnes Shea’s sister, Nellie, was married to O.P. Wickham, contractor and brickmaker.)

  

By 1888, the Sheas were living in the new house at 309 S. Eighth St.

  

The Panic of 1893 was described as the worst economic depression the United States had experienced at the time. It was marked by the overbuilding and shaky financing of railroads and a run on the gold supply. It lasted for five years and resulted in a series of bank failures. The Sheas lost their new home.

  

According to city directory listings, in 1897 they were living at 629 Willow Ave., and in 1899 at 726 Willow Ave. In 1904, the family moved to Independence, Kan. The following year, they settled in Bartlesville, then Indian Territory, and afterwards Washington County, Okla., where he began the practice of law. According to the Annals of Iowa, he was ... “an active participant in the transition from the territorial to the state form of government; appointed judge of the twenty-fourth judicial district by Gov. Chas. N. Haskell; upon leaving the bench resumed the practice of law” ...

  

Following World War I and the discharge of his son Thomas from the Army, the Sheas moved to Tulsa, Okla. where John practiced law in partnership with his son until his death on Nov. 14, 1928. He was buried in Holy Family Cemetery beside his wife, who preceded him in death the previous year.

  

The Chronicles of Oklahoma wrote this about him: “The son of an Irish immigrant and tenant farmer, his life is a fit illustration of the heights to which the lowliest citizen of this country may ascend. He loved the Constitution of the United States and the American Way of Life, and he believed that this country had attained its greatness and its leadership among the nations of the earth because of the fact that its government is one of laws and not of men.”

  

Banker Timothy Turner purchased the home at 309 S. Eighth St. in 1900. He and his brother-in-law, C.R. Hannan, who lived across the street at 805 Second Ave., founded City National Bank. Turner’s daughter, Marian, continued to live in the house until 1993.

  

This massive two and one-half story Queen Anne house is built of patterned brick, adorned with limestone, pressed metal trim, carved sunbursts and corbelled chimneys. It is dominated by a three-story turret with a “witch’s cap” on one corner and a two-story square bay on the other corner. There are many stained, leaded and beveled glass windows. The large “L” shaped porch of classical design was modified at a later date, while a side porch is of a charming gingerbread style. Projecting from the north side of the house is a one-story round room. Once a bed and breakfast, the house is now a private home, a local landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

 

City leaders and representatives from the Neighborhood Cinema Group celebrated June 21 the opening of a multi-million dollar, 10-screen theater at 1050 Powder Springs St. The theatre, which includes stadium seating, 3-D and surround-sound technology, is the only cinema in the city. It is expected to create 40 to 50 regular part-time jobs and several full-time management positions.

Sir George Hubert Wilkins (known as Hubert), Military Cross and Bar, MiD

 

Hubert Wilkins was born 31 October 1888 in an outback cottage on his parents’ property named Netfield, Mount Bryan East, South Australia. He was the youngest of 13 children, born to Henry and Louisa Wilkins.

He was war correspondent and photographer, polar explorer, naturalist, geographer, climatologist, ornithologist and aviator. As a child, Hubert experienced the devastation caused by drought and developed an interest in climatic phenomena.

If hardship moulded the character of Hubert Wilkins, so also did his passion for nature, music and a desire for knowledge. Enrolled in both the South Australian School of Mines and the Elder Conservatorium School of Music simultaneously, he studied electrical engineering, and singing, playing the organ, flute and cello at the Conservatorium.

 

It was in a number of part time jobs he learnt the art of blacksmithing, and gained a sound knowledge of the workings of both steam and internal combustion engines. On a trip to Sydney he became interested in photography. Returning to Adelaide he found employment with a travelling cinema and travelled in both South Australia and the Eastern States showing films.

 

When he was 20 years old (1908) he decided to leave Adelaide and see something of the world. At this time in his life a number of thoughts were forming in his mind, thoughts based upon his past experiences and that were to lead him to follow fixed courses of action. One of the most important of his ideas was to attempt to discover how and why the weather could so dramatically affect people’s lives, as it had done his own. Two forces now took over his life: the need to discover things concerning the world about him, and the need to travel to places that would provide him with the answers to the many questions forming in his mind.

 

His travels began by stowing away on a ship at Port Adelaide. The ship deposited him in Sydney and he soon found employment as a projectionist, then later as a cinematographer.

 

On reaching London he obtained work with the Gaumont Company as a cinematographic cameraman and with the Daily Chronicle as a reporter. It was then (1910) that he learnt to fly at Hendon. He did not sit for any of the flying exams, which would have made him a qualified pilot, through lack of money. But his interest in flying was to remain with him for the rest of his life. So too was his passion for photography. Photographs of the time (1911) show him performing photographic stunts. One popular photograph shows him astride the fuselage of a Deperdussin monoplane hand cranking his camera. Despite these promotional stunts Hubert Wilkins was perfecting the art of taking aerial motion pictures. In his autobiography he believed he was the first person to take a movie camera into the air and film the scenes around him.

 

As a war correspondent and photographer, in 1912 he covered the fighting between the Turks and Bulgarians. From 1913 to 1916 he was second-in-command on Vilhjalmur Stefansson's Canadian Arctic expedition: Wilkins became adept in the art of survival in polar regions, added to his scientific knowledge and conceived a plan to improve weather forecasting by establishing permanent stations at the poles.

Returning to Australia, on 1 May 1917 he was commissioned as second lieutenant in the Australian Imperial Force (Australian Flying Corps). By August he had been transferred to the general list and was at I Anzac Corps headquarters on the Western Front. Appointed official photographer in April 1918, he was tasked with providing 'an accurate and complete record of the fighting and other activities of the A.I.F.' as a counterpart to Captain J. F. Hurley's propaganda work. In June Wilkins was awarded the Military Cross 'for bringing in some wounded men'. With Hurley's departure, he was promoted captain on 11 July and took charge of No.3 (Photographic) Sub-section of the Australian War Records unit. His routine was to visit the front line for part of each day that troops were engaged in combat and periodically to accompany infantry assaults. During the battle of the Hindenburg line, on 29 September he organized a group of American soldiers who had lost their officers in an enemy attack and directed operations until support arrived. Awarded a Bar to his M.C., he was also mentioned in dispatches. He is the only Australian official photographer to have been decorated.

 

In January 1919, as photographer, Wilkins joined Charles Bean’s mission to reconstruct Australia's part in the Gallipoli Peninsula campaign. He entered the England to Australia air race that year, but his aircraft, a Blackburn Kangaroo, experienced engine failure and crash-landed in Crete; he arrived in Australia by sea in July 1920 and his A.I.F. appointment terminated on 7 September. Engaging in further polar exploration, in 1920-21 he made his first visit to the Antarctic, accompanying J. L. Cope on his unsuccessful voyage to Graham Land. Wilkins next took part in Sir Ernest Shackleton's Quest expedition of 1921-22 on which he made ornithological observations.

Sir Hubert’s adventures continued from his home base in America. On one occasion he gleaned information from the Japanese Consul-General about Japan's intention to destroy Pearl Harbour and invade Singapore. Sir Hubert passed the information to the Allies but was not believed.

He died suddenly at Massachusetts, on 30 November 1958 and was cremated: four months later his ashes were scattered from the ‘Skate’ at the North Pole. Lady Wilkins survived him and wrote affectionately of a husband whose only contact with her for extended periods had been through his letters.

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was visiting the Granite State on Wednesday.

  

Bush took questions at a town hall event in Hudson on Wednesday evening after making an unannounced stop at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop in Dover earlier in the day.

 

Bush spoke, surrounded by veterans, at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post in Hudson -- a popular stop on the primary trail.

 

Bush spoke about New Hampshire's twin energy controversies -- the proposed Kinder Morgan natural gas pipeline in the state's southern tier, as well as the Northern Pass project.

 

"I mean, you guys are struggling to build pipelines and transmission lines, best I can tell," said Bush.

 

One attendee followed up, asking Bush what he knew about the pipeline.

 

"It promises to cut through a number of people's homes and [environmentally protected] land," the questioner said.

 

"There's a trade-off in this, which is how public policy works. The trade-off is how do you balance the economic interests of working-class families with environmental considerations? And those are best sorted out at the state level, not in Washington, DC," said Bush.

 

After the town hall, Bush told News 9 that he won't be taking sides.

 

"I think this should be locally driven," said Bush.

 

Bush also provided additional context to comments he made to the Union Leader editorial board earlier in the day.

 

Controversy began brewing on social media after Bush said that "people need to work longer hours."

 

Bush clarified that he was referring to new overtime rules, which he believes will force people into part-time jobs.

 

"I think people want to work harder, to be able to have more money in their own pockets -- not to be dependent upon government. You can take it out of context all you want, but high, sustained growth means people work 40 hours rather than 30 hours, and that by our success they have money -- disposable income for their families to decide how they want to spend it rather than getting in line," said Bush.

 

Bush also dismissed Donald Trump's criticism of his immigration position, when Trump essentially said that Bush is biased by the fact that his wife is Mexican.

 

"You can love your Mexican-American wife and also believe we need to control the border," said Bush.

 

Bush also had coffee and breakfast with a small crowd at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop earlier in the day, where he said he'll use his leadership skills from his experience in office to change the roles within our government.

 

Bush said that one of the first things he would do in office is reduce federal overreach.

 

"Under this administration, there's been broad overreach in the regulatory powers. We need to bring powers back to states and local communities and that's something the president can do almost immediately,” said Bush.

 

Bush also said he would create a better energy plan for America and re-establish America's leadership internationally.

John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007. He is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and the younger brother of former President George W. Bush.

 

Bush grew up in Houston, Texas. He graduated from the Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. Following his father's successful run for Vice President in 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development. In 1986, Bush was named Florida's Secretary of Commerce, a position he held until his resignation in 1988 to help his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.

 

In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, narrowly losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush was credited with initiating environmental improvements, such as conservation in the Everglades, supporting caps for medical malpractice litigation, moving Medicaid recipients to private systems, and instituting reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice.

 

Frequently cited by the media as a possible candidate for president in the 2016 election, Bush announced in mid-December 2014 that he would explore the possibility of running for President. Bush subsequently launched his presidential campaign on June 15, 2015 in Miami, Florida.

In the early 1970s I had a part time job as a painter with AVRO coaches of Corringham Essex. This company was to pass through several owners and as far as I know is still going today. This picture is taken at their first yard at the bottom of Rookery Hill, Corringham. The mess caravan is painted in the original colours of blue and white but by the time this photo was taken new management had instituted a change to yellow for the colour of the buses. AVRO had originally operated their bus fleet under the title of Corringham & District Motor Services, in homage to the long defunct Stanford & District that was taken over by Eastern National in the 1930s.

 

I am pleased to report that RUF 205 is now in pristine condition, preserved in original Southdown colours.

 

As Audrey Charles looked around, something seemed eerily familiar about the park she was visiting with three of her classmates.

It was the park benches and the descending staircase that carried visitors down into the park space that kept her wheels spinning, trying to imagine where she had seen it all before.

Except the park was 4,300 miles farther away from home than she had traveled her entire life prior to that day.

Then it struck her.

“Those were the same seats I saw on ‘Cheetah Girls 2’ when they were in Barcelona,” Charles said. “I went, ‘Oh my God, I’m here.”

It was an epiphany shared at some level by her classmates and chaperone Beth Shoemaker, as the five ladies traversed along the Mediterranean as part of a European tour including stops in Spain, France and Italy at the end of March.

The trip was the product of DHS becoming International Baccalaureate certified, according to Shoemaker.

“They thought it would be great, since we’re IB, to offer an international trip,” said Shoemaker, who also serves as Dublin High’s media specialist.

When Shoemaker took over as advisor for the trip, she began investigating options and leaned toward Spain as a potential stop.

“Since we offer Spanish courses on campus, I thought a Spanish-speaking country would be a good idea,” Shoemaker said, “then I noticed how close Spain was to France and Italy so we turned it into a Roman Conquest tour.”

The 10-day trip carried the five from DHS, and a sister school from Maryland, to the Spanish and French countryside still holding onto relics from the Roman Empire, the watering hole of Vincent van Gogh, Monaco and the Coliseum, to name a few.

“It was an experience of a lifetime,” Charles said.

Charles was joined by Kamisha Miles, Lauren Price and Samaya Dupree, along with Shoemaker, who began their “Roman Conquest” tour in Barcelona, stopping at Park Guell; the aforementioned site from the movie.

By Day 3, the quintuplet stopped in the walled city of Carcassone, camping out at the Hotel Forum in Arles France: the once home of van Gogh.

“Our hotel was directly across from the Yellow Café where van Gogh used visit,” Shoemaker said. “It was a quiet, quaint little town. It all rolled up at 9 p.m.”

The trip continued through France with a visit to Cote d’Azur and the Roman-era Nimes-Maison Carree and Arena before heading east to a Roman aqueduct called the Pont du Gard.

Then Monaco.

“It was so beautiful,” Shoemaker said, showing a selfie that included the building-filled hills of the Riviera coastline in the background. It was in Monaco where the students broke from touring to take part in a cooking class where they constructed their own Mediterranean-stylized meals.

“All the food was amazing,” Miles said.

“My favorite part was the chocolate,” Price said with a smile. “Chocolate mousse, chocolate mocha.”

“Even at the truck stops,” Shoemaker added. “It was unbelievable. It was food you’d find in a regular restaurant in America.”

From Grace Kelly’s former home, the group headed to Florence and finally to Rome for two days touring the Spanish Steps, the Trevi Fountain and the Piazza Navona, as well as the Ostia Antica (a large archaeological site).

“And we went to the Vatican,” added Charles, who took on a part-time job in order to cover the expense of the trip. “The ceilings there were really pretty.”

“The beauty of the Vatican Museum really struck me,” Miles said.

Every one of the women, both young and old, said the trip is one that will live on in their memories indefinitely.

“I wanted to go because I had been places before with my parents and I wanted to try it for myself,” Miles said. “When I look back on my phone I realize how great it all was.”

“I feel more confident in trying new things because of the trip,” Charles added.

“It was amazing to see them grow and mature in such a short period,” Shoemaker said. “They were a pleasure and I’d take them anywhere. I can’t wait to go back.”

Seen in the Daehangno District near Sungkyunkwan University. This bar, named Kennedy Rose, is quite memorable - if only because of the Marilyn Monroe statue in front.

 

This bar refers to itself as a "hof." In South Korea, the German word "hof" is used to refer to social bars like this. A lone traveler like me would never hang out at a hof, as I would need to gather some friends first. And speaking of German words, the word "Arbeit" (work) is also commonly used in Korean (and in Japanese) to refer to a part-time job.

 

It is also notable that this bar's website address is in Korean. Although all web addresses in 2008 still had to be in Roman alphabet, it was possible for South Korean websites to register a Korean-language domain name that would redirect to a Roman alphabet web address. The best known such Korean-language domain is 현금영수증.kr, which is a government tax authority website allowing taxpayers to track their cash transaction receipts for tax deduction/reporting purposes.

Soooooo I have some REALLY REALLY EXCITING AND BIG NEWS!!!!!!!!!

 

Apparently working a new full time job, a new part time job, and having three little kiddos, doesn't keep me busy enough.

 

Yesterday I made the BIG decision to start up my own photography business. I have always thought about trying to start one up but yesterday was pretty much THE DAY that I decided to finally make it happen.

 

In life it is SO SO SOOOOO important to dare to dream and believe.

 

I have always loved nature and architecture photography but yesterday a funny little thing happened.

 

Two of my co workers, both totally different times, happened to see my screen saver. My screen saver is a collection of my favorite shots....whether it be my nature, architecture, or candid child photography.

 

They both said to me, "Are those your photos....are you a photographer?"

 

That's one of those questions where sometimes you are not sure how to answer that. But I smiled and said, "Yes I am....I love photography"

 

That's when they BOTH asked me if I could schedule a shooting session with them. One will be a maternity shoot in a couple months and the other will be a family portrait session in a couple weeks.

 

Can you say OMG?!

 

Who knew a screen saver could do all of this?!

 

I have pretty much NO "real" professional portrait experience but they liked my other stuff enough to want me to shoot for them. I am SOOOOOO damn excited!

 

My dear friend Chris (who used to be Public Nuisance on Flickr) and my FAB husband are going to help me with my website design, my business cards, editing, financial aspects, and anything and everything else that I may need their expertise with. They SOOOOO ROCK and I can't thank them enough. Thank you SO VERY MUCH Kevin and Chris!

 

Ohhhhh and did I mention that CHRIS IS BAAAAACCCCCCCCCCCCK?!!!!!!!!!!!

Check out his new name and stream here!

 

YaY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Soooo YEAH things are super crazy right now.

 

Crazy in a very good way.

 

Well besides having three sick kiddos.

 

Stomach virus sick.

 

SOOOOOO NOT fun.

 

Kevin and I are taking turns with missing work.

 

Hopefully in a day or two the kiddos will feel better.

 

Healthy kiddos make life much much much EASIER.

 

ESPECIALLY when you have SO many things going on.

 

What is SO EXCITING is that my two co workers if all goes well will be amazing at spreading the word. They both said that they would be more than happy to let all their family and friends know about my new website and hand out business cards once both are ready.

 

I could say OMG about a million times right now and it still wouldn't be enough.

 

Besides my two jobs, husband, and three kids, my BIGGEST priorities right now are to get my website up and running and get my business cards designed and printed.

 

This is where ALL OF YOU come into play.

 

I need YOUR HELP.

 

Pretty please?! ;)

 

I would like to choose 24 of my best images (self portraits and/or NON self portraits) to use for my website.

 

I would be SOOOOOOO grateful and OH SO HAPPY if you guys could help me out with that. Which ones would YOU include?

 

Here are a few links that might be helpful in your research lol -

When I moved cross country to the Pacific Northwest from Boston I was just turning 30 and reluctantly realizing it was probably time to grow up. A couple of jumbo jets crashed into the twin towers, toppling the world economy and my hopes of making it as a commercial artist down with them. My budding art career dried up overnight. No art directors or publishers called me anymore. Suddenly my part time job as an environmental fundraiser wasn’t going to cut it and it was time to move cross country with a girl I’m incidentally no longer with and to pursue a real job…one with health benefits and a 401k. It was time to take responsibility and live the American Dream in a little cabin on the waterfront right next to her rich parents. Maybe someday we’d have kids and a dog…maybe I’d finally fit in with high society...maybe someday her well to do mother would stop judging me and like the person that I am. This entailed giving up my dreams as an artist…this meant losing my identity as a free thinker, as a rogue…as sort of a bad boy. This is the last painting I did when I lived in Boston and reflects the fear I felt of moving cross country. It tells the story of a guy named Roy…a regular guy living in the conformist 1950’s…a guy with a great job as a bread delivery driver, a guy with a supportive wife, beautiful kids and a little house with a white picket fence to call his own. In spite of having everything a regular guy could ever want, Roy eventually was compelled to rebel against conformity, religion, authority and the forces that caged him within the confines of being a regular guy and nothing more. He became more than happy to burn his perfect little house down in the dead of night and careen his truck off a cliff.

 

If paintings are like my children, this is my darkest, most brooding child yet. It’s a favorite amongst so many people. Years ago someone offered $6000 for it and I refused as I couldn’t bear to part with my most brooding child…one that reflects so much of my soul. That great job I was pressured to seek out so many years ago…the one with the health benefits and a 401k, like many things in life has ended a few months ago. I was just no longer affordable to keep around so they bid me adieu and sent me off into the world. I believe when one door closes, another opens and I’m trying my hand at being a commercial artist again. To move forward with my new life as an artist, I’m willing to live like one and finally sell off this painting for…as fate would have it…considerably less than the $6000 that was offered years ago. This and my other work will be at Zero Zero Gallery. 1525 Summit Ave. Seattle, WA. The opening is November 8th from 8-1030pm and will mark my reentry into the artist’s world. Come if you can, to show your support and hang out with me. I’ll be easy to find. I’ll be the one with a headful of hopes and dreams and a thousand doors of opportunities opening before me.

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was visiting the Granite State on Wednesday.

  

Bush took questions at a town hall event in Hudson on Wednesday evening after making an unannounced stop at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop in Dover earlier in the day.

 

Bush spoke, surrounded by veterans, at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post in Hudson -- a popular stop on the primary trail.

 

Bush spoke about New Hampshire's twin energy controversies -- the proposed Kinder Morgan natural gas pipeline in the state's southern tier, as well as the Northern Pass project.

 

"I mean, you guys are struggling to build pipelines and transmission lines, best I can tell," said Bush.

 

One attendee followed up, asking Bush what he knew about the pipeline.

 

"It promises to cut through a number of people's homes and [environmentally protected] land," the questioner said.

 

"There's a trade-off in this, which is how public policy works. The trade-off is how do you balance the economic interests of working-class families with environmental considerations? And those are best sorted out at the state level, not in Washington, DC," said Bush.

 

After the town hall, Bush told News 9 that he won't be taking sides.

 

"I think this should be locally driven," said Bush.

 

Bush also provided additional context to comments he made to the Union Leader editorial board earlier in the day.

 

Controversy began brewing on social media after Bush said that "people need to work longer hours."

 

Bush clarified that he was referring to new overtime rules, which he believes will force people into part-time jobs.

 

"I think people want to work harder, to be able to have more money in their own pockets -- not to be dependent upon government. You can take it out of context all you want, but high, sustained growth means people work 40 hours rather than 30 hours, and that by our success they have money -- disposable income for their families to decide how they want to spend it rather than getting in line," said Bush.

 

Bush also dismissed Donald Trump's criticism of his immigration position, when Trump essentially said that Bush is biased by the fact that his wife is Mexican.

 

"You can love your Mexican-American wife and also believe we need to control the border," said Bush.

 

Bush also had coffee and breakfast with a small crowd at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop earlier in the day, where he said he'll use his leadership skills from his experience in office to change the roles within our government.

 

Bush said that one of the first things he would do in office is reduce federal overreach.

 

"Under this administration, there's been broad overreach in the regulatory powers. We need to bring powers back to states and local communities and that's something the president can do almost immediately,” said Bush.

 

Bush also said he would create a better energy plan for America and re-establish America's leadership internationally.

****************************************

 

John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007. He is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and the younger brother of former President George W. Bush.

 

Bush grew up in Houston, Texas. He graduated from the Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. Following his father's successful run for Vice President in 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development. In 1986, Bush was named Florida's Secretary of Commerce, a position he held until his resignation in 1988 to help his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.

 

In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, narrowly losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush was credited with initiating environmental improvements, such as conservation in the Everglades, supporting caps for medical malpractice litigation, moving Medicaid recipients to private systems, and instituting reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice.

 

Frequently cited by the media as a possible candidate for president in the 2016 election, Bush announced in mid-December 2014 that he would explore the possibility of running for President. Bush subsequently launched his presidential campaign on June 15, 2015 in Miami, Florida.

City leaders and representatives from the Neighborhood Cinema Group celebrated June 21 the opening of a multi-million dollar, 10-screen theater at 1050 Powder Springs St. The theatre, which includes stadium seating, 3-D and surround-sound technology, is the only cinema in the city.

History of the Stanford Inn Eco-Resort

 

A short review of the less obvious aspects of two decades of innkeeping. Steppin’ Out Magazine publisher Jeanne Francis asked us if we wanted to represent the “real” Mendocino for their “creative landscapes.” issue. We agreed to be featured and the following article was published. We are re-publishing it here, because the story is about what has become most important to us at Stanford Inn Eco-Resort. - Jeff & Joan Stanford

 

Nurturing Energies At Mendocino Stanford Inn

 

“When we came here twenty-three years ago we had no idea the twists and turns our lives would take,” recounted Jeff Stanford who with his wife and partner, Joan, are owner-innkeepers of the Stanford Inn by the Sea in Mendocino. “We had fallen in love with Mendocino as so many others,” Joan added, “but never expected to live here.”

 

The story of how they came to purchase Big River Lodge, now the Stanford Inn, is another story, however, their beginning was auspicious.

 

The sellers Art and Katherine Williams, who still live in the 1850s farmhouse in front of the inn, provided significant and decisive financial help.

 

The Stanfords started modestly moving into a 375 square foot guest room, doing most of the work themselves - from housekeeping to installing fireplaces. In just two years they had two children and were waking each morning to serve their guests breakfast

 

“We wanted to create something special and along the way the land began to influence us.” Jeff shares stories of experience with energy. “This is real stuff; not something I read about or sought out, but something experienced and then researched.”

 

“Transformation takes place here - physical, emotional and spiritual. While we were transforming the buildings and the landscaping, it was as if we had opened up a vein of co-creative potential. It is a manifesting process,” Joan explained. “We love living things and it seemed natural to solve landscaping problems with organic gardens.” Jeff and a close friend began digging double dug garden beds, following the work of John Jeavons. He urged those working in the gardens to become sensitive to the energies there.

 

Jeff is purposefully vague about working with earth energies. “I am not trying to make this mysterious. It isn’t,” he explains. “What I can tell you is how this ‘working’ manifests: When we adjusted the footprints of buildings we planned to build to save a Bishop pine, two smaller trees which were in the way of construction just fell down. There was no storm. It meant for us to go ahead.”

 

However, Jeff is not an ordinary environmentalist. He had mixed feelings regarding the creation of the new Big River State Park in spite of being involved in the effort. “It’s unfortunate that rather than insure healthy, sustainable logging practices, we are forced to remove land from forestry altogether to preserve it.” He argues that it is irresponsible to damage a forest’s biodiversity and over-log. “Taking land out of production here puts incredible pressure on other timber areas.”

 

Over the years, the Stanfords have worked to develop fulltime jobs rather than the part time jobs characteristic of a seasonal resort area. Catch A Canoe, the Inn’s canoe and kayak livery operated for only seven months of the year until Jeff added & Bicycles, too!, a bike shop, permitting the staff to become year around employees.

 

The creation of their California Certified Organic Farm created full time jobs and now supplies the Inn’s restaurant, The Ravens, the area’s only organic vegetarian/vegan restaurant, creating more jobs.

 

“We get a lot of people who come to work here because we are vegetarian, organic. They believe this is a Shangri La. It isn’t. It is hard work,” Jeff explained when asked why some people “don’t make it.” “When I began experiencing earth energies, I read a variety of books including Dorothy MacClean’s description of working with angels at Findhorn, Scotland. Our angels, if you want to call them that, are not etheric, they are hard workers: ‘buff,’ if you know what I mean. They’re tough and those who work with them need to be tough, too.

 

Staff often becomes part of the family and Jeff and Joan encourage them to develop interests and aptitudes and to finish school and go on to college. For years they have worked formally and informally with the schools. Joan works in the schools addressing issues of self esteem and peer counseling. The inn provides work experiences, training in everything from cooking to bike mechanics. Students have come to work to fulfill requirements for graduation or simply for money and some have stayed. One began working as a gardener when he was fifteen. Eventually, Jeff made him manager of the new & Bicycles, too! He helped grow the business, became an expert bike mechanic, and worked in the community to raise money for a skate park which unfortunately has yet to be constructed.

 

The Stanfords look at their operation as a garden or farm. They understand the energies they experience to be nurturing and they believe they must reciprocate by nurturing not only the gardens, but the people with whom they work and the community. They provide meeting rooms at no charge for local non profits and public agencies such as the school district; canoes for local schools’ recreational and educational programs; and their gardens for the local 4-H club where the kids learn propagation, planting, and composting from the staff.

 

Some teachers bring students who have difficulty in traditional schools to experience how the Stanfords work with nature with the idea that a return to nature is healthful.

 

This is life at the Stanford Inn.

“If you could do anything, what would it be?”

“I’d love to do a PhD in English Literature, finish that and see where it takes me”

“Why that specifically?”

“Just because it’s difficult, and it’s something I’d like to achieve"

“What’s difficult about it?”

“Well, coming up with a proposal in itself is quite daunting, for me. You’ve got to have it planned out, you have to know what you’re going to research in each chapter, what text you’re doing, who you’re going to use, period-wise - everything, upfront."

  

I was walking out of the Trinity shopping centre when I met Sofia. She was all dolled up and looking very summery, and why not, as the weather was indeed close to summer.

 

We started by discussing shoes, oddly enough, because she works at the Kurt Geiger store. She told me that although she gets a store discount she hardly buys anything, mainly because she can’t afford to as she doesn’t even get minimum wage. The term ‘minimum wage’ is a bit loose if that’s the case then, I always assumed everyone had to be on that, regardless.

 

Luckily, it’s only a part-time job as she puts herself through University studying English Literature. I got the impression Sofia was very academic, wanting to go on to do a doctorate. We discussed the PhD option at length as I did one myself, a long time ago now when they were actually funded. Apart from the funding aspect, the proposal which Sofia mentioned was something I never had to do either, and I could understand why it was so difficult as research can take you in all kinds of directions, something which you can’t really account for at the beginning.

Instead of working full time in the summer like I usually do, I am working two part time jobs - the second being baby-sitting. And with baby-sitting, I get to be outside in the backyard and at the pool. And THAT means that this little white Irish girl will finally have a tan! (Don't worry, I wear sunscreen like it's going out of style)

As Audrey Charles looked around, something seemed eerily familiar about the park she was visiting with three of her classmates.

It was the park benches and the descending staircase that carried visitors down into the park space that kept her wheels spinning, trying to imagine where she had seen it all before.

Except the park was 4,300 miles farther away from home than she had traveled her entire life prior to that day.

Then it struck her.

“Those were the same seats I saw on ‘Cheetah Girls 2’ when they were in Barcelona,” Charles said. “I went, ‘Oh my God, I’m here.”

It was an epiphany shared at some level by her classmates and chaperone Beth Shoemaker, as the five ladies traversed along the Mediterranean as part of a European tour including stops in Spain, France and Italy at the end of March.

The trip was the product of DHS becoming International Baccalaureate certified, according to Shoemaker.

“They thought it would be great, since we’re IB, to offer an international trip,” said Shoemaker, who also serves as Dublin High’s media specialist.

When Shoemaker took over as advisor for the trip, she began investigating options and leaned toward Spain as a potential stop.

“Since we offer Spanish courses on campus, I thought a Spanish-speaking country would be a good idea,” Shoemaker said, “then I noticed how close Spain was to France and Italy so we turned it into a Roman Conquest tour.”

The 10-day trip carried the five from DHS, and a sister school from Maryland, to the Spanish and French countryside still holding onto relics from the Roman Empire, the watering hole of Vincent van Gogh, Monaco and the Coliseum, to name a few.

“It was an experience of a lifetime,” Charles said.

Charles was joined by Kamisha Miles, Lauren Price and Samaya Dupree, along with Shoemaker, who began their “Roman Conquest” tour in Barcelona, stopping at Park Guell; the aforementioned site from the movie.

By Day 3, the quintuplet stopped in the walled city of Carcassone, camping out at the Hotel Forum in Arles France: the once home of van Gogh.

“Our hotel was directly across from the Yellow Café where van Gogh used visit,” Shoemaker said. “It was a quiet, quaint little town. It all rolled up at 9 p.m.”

The trip continued through France with a visit to Cote d’Azur and the Roman-era Nimes-Maison Carree and Arena before heading east to a Roman aqueduct called the Pont du Gard.

Then Monaco.

“It was so beautiful,” Shoemaker said, showing a selfie that included the building-filled hills of the Riviera coastline in the background. It was in Monaco where the students broke from touring to take part in a cooking class where they constructed their own Mediterranean-stylized meals.

“All the food was amazing,” Miles said.

“My favorite part was the chocolate,” Price said with a smile. “Chocolate mousse, chocolate mocha.”

“Even at the truck stops,” Shoemaker added. “It was unbelievable. It was food you’d find in a regular restaurant in America.”

From Grace Kelly’s former home, the group headed to Florence and finally to Rome for two days touring the Spanish Steps, the Trevi Fountain and the Piazza Navona, as well as the Ostia Antica (a large archaeological site).

“And we went to the Vatican,” added Charles, who took on a part-time job in order to cover the expense of the trip. “The ceilings there were really pretty.”

“The beauty of the Vatican Museum really struck me,” Miles said.

Every one of the women, both young and old, said the trip is one that will live on in their memories indefinitely.

“I wanted to go because I had been places before with my parents and I wanted to try it for myself,” Miles said. “When I look back on my phone I realize how great it all was.”

“I feel more confident in trying new things because of the trip,” Charles added.

“It was amazing to see them grow and mature in such a short period,” Shoemaker said. “They were a pleasure and I’d take them anywhere. I can’t wait to go back.”

 

Locals gathered outside Ipswich Town Hall in solidarity despite the snow to protest the bedroom tax due to kick in at the beginning of the financial year.

 

The imposed tax by the government will see housing benefits cut by 25% for those seen to be “under-occupying” their council or housing association homes.

 

This leaves many questioning whether to stay in their accommodation and struggle more and more with mounting bills alongside the tax or for single mother with two children Zoe Bartel, to decide whether to move into shared housing.

 

“I moved here two years ago when my eldest was just six, now they’re asking me to pay 14% more on my housing benefit and 8% council tax which will total to £60 per month.”

 

“I also have the option to move but as a single mother with two children with a part time job, moving again is just not going to happen”

 

Some fifty protests are believed to be held all over the county today. Manchester was noted to have gathered an estimated 1200 protestors on the 16th of March”.

 

Many gathered to protest, not because the tax affected themselves directly, but affected those around them including family and friends.

 

A protestor in Ipswich told, “It’s disgusting, they’re taxing blindly with no regard to those who will be affected, many have more than one bedroom because their sick children have disabilities that require dialysis machines. How is this fair? ”

 

As Audrey Charles looked around, something seemed eerily familiar about the park she was visiting with three of her classmates.

It was the park benches and the descending staircase that carried visitors down into the park space that kept her wheels spinning, trying to imagine where she had seen it all before.

Except the park was 4,300 miles farther away from home than she had traveled her entire life prior to that day.

Then it struck her.

“Those were the same seats I saw on ‘Cheetah Girls 2’ when they were in Barcelona,” Charles said. “I went, ‘Oh my God, I’m here.”

It was an epiphany shared at some level by her classmates and chaperone Beth Shoemaker, as the five ladies traversed along the Mediterranean as part of a European tour including stops in Spain, France and Italy at the end of March.

The trip was the product of DHS becoming International Baccalaureate certified, according to Shoemaker.

“They thought it would be great, since we’re IB, to offer an international trip,” said Shoemaker, who also serves as Dublin High’s media specialist.

When Shoemaker took over as advisor for the trip, she began investigating options and leaned toward Spain as a potential stop.

“Since we offer Spanish courses on campus, I thought a Spanish-speaking country would be a good idea,” Shoemaker said, “then I noticed how close Spain was to France and Italy so we turned it into a Roman Conquest tour.”

The 10-day trip carried the five from DHS, and a sister school from Maryland, to the Spanish and French countryside still holding onto relics from the Roman Empire, the watering hole of Vincent van Gogh, Monaco and the Coliseum, to name a few.

“It was an experience of a lifetime,” Charles said.

Charles was joined by Kamisha Miles, Lauren Price and Samaya Dupree, along with Shoemaker, who began their “Roman Conquest” tour in Barcelona, stopping at Park Guell; the aforementioned site from the movie.

By Day 3, the quintuplet stopped in the walled city of Carcassone, camping out at the Hotel Forum in Arles France: the once home of van Gogh.

“Our hotel was directly across from the Yellow Café where van Gogh used visit,” Shoemaker said. “It was a quiet, quaint little town. It all rolled up at 9 p.m.”

The trip continued through France with a visit to Cote d’Azur and the Roman-era Nimes-Maison Carree and Arena before heading east to a Roman aqueduct called the Pont du Gard.

Then Monaco.

“It was so beautiful,” Shoemaker said, showing a selfie that included the building-filled hills of the Riviera coastline in the background. It was in Monaco where the students broke from touring to take part in a cooking class where they constructed their own Mediterranean-stylized meals.

“All the food was amazing,” Miles said.

“My favorite part was the chocolate,” Price said with a smile. “Chocolate mousse, chocolate mocha.”

“Even at the truck stops,” Shoemaker added. “It was unbelievable. It was food you’d find in a regular restaurant in America.”

From Grace Kelly’s former home, the group headed to Florence and finally to Rome for two days touring the Spanish Steps, the Trevi Fountain and the Piazza Navona, as well as the Ostia Antica (a large archaeological site).

“And we went to the Vatican,” added Charles, who took on a part-time job in order to cover the expense of the trip. “The ceilings there were really pretty.”

“The beauty of the Vatican Museum really struck me,” Miles said.

Every one of the women, both young and old, said the trip is one that will live on in their memories indefinitely.

“I wanted to go because I had been places before with my parents and I wanted to try it for myself,” Miles said. “When I look back on my phone I realize how great it all was.”

“I feel more confident in trying new things because of the trip,” Charles added.

“It was amazing to see them grow and mature in such a short period,” Shoemaker said. “They were a pleasure and I’d take them anywhere. I can’t wait to go back.”
