University of Missouri System’s Advocacy-Mentoring Program held its 2012 Torch Awards on Nov. 15, 2012 to mark the completion of an 18-month mentorship program.
The mentoring relationship is meant to increase the number of competitive minority- and women-owned firms that wish to do business with one of the University of Missouri’s four campuses. Women- or minority-owned businesses are defined as business entities in which at least 51 percent of the ownership interest, stock or otherwise, is minority or woman owned.
Soaring 368 metres into the sky, Berlin’s TV Tower is the city’s most visible landmark. But the tower on Alexanderplatz is not just literally a must-see sight, it is also the highest building in Europe open to the general public. And from the dizzying height of its viewing platform, you have spectacular 360-degree panoramic views out across the entire city and beyond!
The Berlin TV Tower was inaugurated on 3 October 1969 – shortly before East Germany held its twentieth anniversary celebrations. For Walter Ulbricht, then East Germany’s head of state, the TV Tower, constructed in just four years, was emblematic of the communist system's superiority – unequivocal evidence that the GDR was building a better future. The tower was designed by Hermann Henselmann and the group of architects around Fritz Dieter, Günter Franke and We Source: www.visitberlin.de

The Solar System is much more than a collection of
planets, moons, comets, and asteroids. It is our home
in the cosmos.
The Solar System's only star, which we call the Sun,
plays a role in nearly every aspect of our cosmic neighborhood.
The 8 planets, including Earth, all revolve around the
Sun. No two planets are alike.
There are hundreds of moons in our Solar System,
many are intriguing worlds waiting to be explored.
Comets are Solar System interlopers, bringing information
from the very edge of the Solar System.
Our Solar System resides in a spiral arm of the Milky
Way Galaxy, where our Sun is one among billions of
other stars.
The search for evidence of life, past and maybe even
present, is the study of astrobiology.
From Earth to the Solar System (FETTSS) provides
a few snapshots of the wonders contained within this
unique system, the likes of which we have yet to discover
anywhere else in the Universe. www.facebook.com/fettss

The Hemispheres inflight magazine has gone to digital only; the articles can be accessed for free using the inflight WiFi. Among the articles is an article featuring some solo travel friendly destinations, including Seoul. Solo travel and Seoul are two of my favorite topics!
Not only is Seoul one of my hometowns and I'm way overdue for a return, but with my decision to leave the United States upon retirement, all options are on the table. The impeachment and conviction of incel king and wannabe dictator, President Yoon Suk-yeol, has made South Korea not only a viable option, but considering that the only reason I do not have a South Korean citizenship is because dual citizenship was not allowed and I chose to exercise US citizenship - and I can have my South Korean citizenship "restored" upon moving there very quickly if I am over 65 or if I agree to renounce US citizenship - it has become a compelling choice. As a retiree, I could choose to live within South Korea and travel to Europe often, or I could apply for a European retirement visa as a Korean rather than an American.
One thing remains unchanged - even with my feeling of sourness and betrayal in the wake of recent US political developments, United remains my favorite airline (and one of my few favorite American companies), and I'll certainly listen to my favorite American musician, Mariah Carey, on my United flights to/from Seoul.
The article in question also mentions Amsterdam as another solo-friendly destination, but Amsterdam had turned out to be my absolute worst travel nightmare back in the day where I was assaulted multiple times a day. Not to mention that hearing the Dutch brag about how "tolerant" they are, is every bit as obnoxious, and as hollow, as Donald Trump bragging about how "great" and "free" America is. The only good part of being in Amsterdam was getting the hell out on a United flight - the very reason why United became my favorite airline in the first place.

A towering cumulonimbus at sunset. Looks like a bomb had gone off! Atmospheric instability at its finest! An unstable airmass was present this day as the same storm system that had brought rain showers to our area the previous day slowly heads eastward. It was finally feeling a lot like fall! They were still predicting a strong El Niño this upcoming winter... Pic taken from around San Jose, CA. (Monday around sunset, November 9, 2015; 5:06 p.m.)
Weather update:
A cold storm system was to bring periods of rain to the Bay Area from late Saturday night thru Monday. This system which had dropped down from the Gulf of Alaska was to bring rain to across much of northern and central California, along with mountain snow. Rain had began in the North Bay late Saturday night as the system's cold front pushed in. The front then pushed southward into our region by Sunday. Widespread shower activity was to follow the front from Sunday night through Monday. T-storms were likely on Monday due to an unstable airmass behind the front. Showers were forecast to taper off by Monday evening. Drier weather was forecast to return by Tuesday...

The VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System (VAAAHS) discharged its first Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) patient only 48 hours after surgery.
Marine Corps Veteran, Paul Lehr, underwent a successful TAVR procedure on Wed. Jan 9, 2015, at the VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System’s Hybrid Open Heart Surgical Suite/Catheterization Laboratory.
“I feel great,” said Lehr. “I have no pain.”
An alternative to open-heart surgery, VAAAHS is one of only 6 VA facilities throughout the country chosen to perform TAVR for eligible patients– a minimally invasive, state-of-the-art aortic valve replacement procedure.

The City of Milwaukee is a steel-hulled ship with a carrying capacity of 28–30 fully loaded rail cars. She was powered by four Scotch marine boilers, producing 185 psi (1,280 kPa) of pressure. The boilers were fueled by coal until 1947, when the COM was converted to No.5 (Bunker C) fuel oil and was routinely topped off with 1,200 US gallons (4,500 l) of it. Two of the four boilers powered the two triple expansion reciprocating steam engines rated at 1,350 horsepower (1,010 kW) each, for a combined horsepower of 2,700 hp (2,000 kW), while the 3rd powered the generator and other steam powered equipment onboard, and the 4th would stay idle switching off with the others. The two engines drove the twin cast steel 4 bladed propellers: each at 12 ft (3.7 m) in diameter and over 10,000 pounds (4,500 kg). She has a relatively shallow draft, determined in part because ships carrying railroad vehicles needed to have a flat deck. The hull is divided into eight compartments. Listed in order from bow to stern is the chain locker, hold No.1, hold No.2, boiler room, engine room, flicker (crew quarters), shaft alley and lastly the steering engine room. The car deck is mostly covered and sheltered on the sides by the hull. There are four pairs of rails, with extra rails outside each pair to which the cars being carried were anchored by chains. The engineering and galley crew quarters, galley, passenger dining room, crew mess, and passenger staterooms are located on the deck directly above the cardeck. The deck above the passenger deck is the Texas deck, which housed the Captain's and Mate's quarters, as well as some lookouts and watchmen. Above the Texas deck is the pilot house, where main navigation of the vessel took place. There is also a small pilot house on the stern that is used for docking the vessel.
The ship was built in 1930 and launched in 1931 at Manitowoc, Wisconsin to replace SS Milwaukee, which sank with all hands, on October 22, 1929, during a gale. Car ferry service had been introduced to the Great Lakes in 1892, and there were many as 14 vessels operating on the lakes at the system's peak. These specialized vessels were capable of carrying up to 34 railroad cars across the often stormy and ice-packed lakes at any time of year. The SS City of Milwaukee sailed for the Grand Trunk until 1978 when, as the last of their fleet of three to be sailing, she was chartered to the Ann Arbor Railroad. She sailed for this road until 1982, when she was retired permanently. She is currently preserved in Manistee, Michigan as a National Historic Landmark Museum, owned by the Society for the Preservation of the S.S. City of Milwaukee, a non-profit organization. In addition to being a museum to tour, she is also operated seasonally as a bed and breakfast, and every October she is transformed into Manistee's Ghost Ship, where nearly the entire ship is turned into a haunted attraction in order to raise funds. She is the last unmodified traditional railroad car ferry afloat upon the lakes, still with her triple expansion steam engine, original woodwork and brass fixtures.

There's lots of flash at the Harmon Branch Library by Richärd+Bauer, but the thing I found most stunning about the building was the structural system's articulation.
I'm looking down the central volume of the building. Adjacent to the perimeter of this volume are varying spaces on either side of the long volume.
These side spaces provide additional support for the oversized and delicate 'trusses' that support the main volume. The side spaces could be referred to as a modern day flying buttress? Anyway, the use of the side supports and big truss means that the inside columns can disappear and 'slip.'
So, inside the column grid is not consistent, but certain columns disappear, allowing different uses to happen in certain spaces. This avoids the problem of the column being the awkward stranger at the party.

A very strong storm system batters California with damaging winds. Even a high wind warning was issued for our area overnight as the storm system's main frontal system passes thru. Even our neighbor's dead birch tree didn't stand a chance. Power outages were a big concern due to falling trees and power lines... Stay safe out there, folks! Pics taken from around San Jose, CA. (Overnight hours of February 1-2, 2019)
*Weather scenario/update for the beginning days of February 2019:
The strongest storm of the season had battered California with flooding rains, damaging winds & thunderstorms… Following a weak system, a far more dynamically impressive system had followed Friday/Saturday. This event featured a rapidly-strengthening surface low near the North Coast. This kind of set-up had the potential to bring very strong winds to parts of NorCal. Such events are subject to uncertainty right up to the day of the event. Luckily, this event had produced winds that were a bit less severe than expected in the Bay Area Friday evening, though local gusts were still damaging (which caused our neighbor’s dead birch tree to fall on our fence/shed). Some gusts were impressive at least for the standards of my area. In addition to the risk of damaging winds in NorCal, the presence of a favorable jet dynamics have created a rather impressive cold frontal passage. Torrential downpours, strong southerly winds & t-storms have occurred in NorCal during the frontal passage with numerous t-storm activity in the Central Valley areas behind the front due to an unstable air mass left behind especially on Saturday & into Sunday. After this large storm passed, another colder system had dipped south from the Pacific Northwest into our state bringing snow levels down to near sea level in local areas of the Bay Area. The weather was to get quite interesting heading into Tuesday morning…
