In addition to announcing Brailers appointment, Thompson also said that several other department priorities were coming to fruition. Federal agencies, he said, will adopt an additional 15 health standards examined by the governments Consolidated Health Informatics initiatives. And the

Apr. 13 Stanford Carpenter Driskell Center Postdoctoral Fellow and Cultural Anthropologist/Research Scientist, Friends Research Institute, Baltimore What can a study of the everyday lives, creative processes, and institutional constraints of media producers and visual artists teach us about the representation of community, ethnicity, gender, and race? And how can this question be further explored through the actual production of art and media by the researcher? Artist and anthropologist, Stanford W. Carpenter, will use the unveiling of the art installation titled Imagining Identity in a Melanin-Free-Space as a jumping off point to discuss imagination, representation and identity. Cultural, Ethnic, and Media Studies have long used readership, audience reception, consumption and thematic analyses of mass media and the visual to critique the representation of community, ethnicity, gender, and race. Working from the argument that popular culture, mass media, and history are the means through which people create, manage, and maintain identity, Carpenter will discuss the relevance of ethnographic research amongst cartoonist, visual artists, and journalists in the development of a more production-centered approach, looking at the everyday lives, creative processes, and institutional constraints that affect mass media producers and visual and performing artists in order to address representation.

Extractions: A Multicultural Exploration with Bread The high stakes assessment environment in Florida, with an emphasis on reading, writing, and mathematics, has placed pressure on teachers to find time to teach social studies. One way to maintain social studies in the elementary curriculum is to integrate the content with the teaching of mathematics and language arts. Elementary teachers may naturally think of the social studies and language arts connections, through the reading of books with a multicultural connection; however, they may overlook the mathematics connections that are possible with those same books.

Extractions: The Astorians John Jacob Astor = Wilson Price Hunt = Robert Stuart John Jacob Astor was a rich New York businessman, born in Germany. When Lewis and Clark had made their voyage to the Columbia, Astor realized that this gave new trade possibilities. He sent two expedition to the Columbia, most of his men being fur traders from Montreal. One expedition would go to the Columbia by ship, around Cape Horn, and build a fort, fort Astoria, at the mouth of the river, the other would join them after an overland journey. The overland party was led by Wilson Price Hunt. He set out from St. Louis late in 1810, and wintered near present-day St. Joseph, Missouri . In April 1811 he set out again, reaching the villages of the Arikara Indians (South Dakota). There he traded with the famous Spanish trader Manuel Lisa . to get horses, as he wanted to continue by land and not by river, so as to avoid the area of the much feared Blackfoot Indians. From there he went straight west until he reached the Wind River. He and his men were awed by the sight of the great herds of buffalo that used to roam around in that region. He crossed the Rocky Mountains through the Union Pass, and reached the Snake River. Although the Indians warned him that the river could be dangerous, Hunt decided to let the horses run loose, and descended the river by canoe. For nine days they did so without difficulties, but then they arrived at the rapids. One canoe was torn to pieces, killing one man. They tried to find a way around the rapids, but when scouting parties reported that the river went on in the same vein for a large distance. The decision was made to continue the expedition by foot.

The theme of the meeting was La Nouvelle Frontiere: Exploration and Discovery of the Louisiana Purchase. New Orleans was chosen as the site for our meeting because of its pivotal location in the Louisiana Purchase.

Highlights of the conference included a Thursday evening presentation by several representatives from France who inaugurated the new French website Louisiane at the Williams Research Center of The Historic New Orleans Collection (THNOC). The website Louisiane was developed by: Jean-Pierre Dalbéra, Chief of the Mission de la Recherche et de la Technologie of the Ministry of Culture; Camille Constans, Director of the multimedia project Louisiane, and Dr. Gilles-Antoine Langlois, author of the website. French Consul General Patrick Rolot, and Inspector General of the French Archives Elizabeth Rabut were also present to welcome SHD members. Our hosts, THNOC, also mounted an informative exhibit of historic maps at the Williams Research Center.

Extractions: Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Reading and Communication Skills Urbana IL. Vocabulary. ERIC Digest. When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in a rather scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean..." "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things." "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master-that's all." (Lewis Carroll, THROUGH THE LOOKING-GLASS 1872). The nature and origins of words have long held a fascination for interested scholars and lay public, not only to satisfy intellectual curiosities, but also because word knowledge has particular importance in literate societies. For the same reasons, scholarly interests have turned toward determining the nature of vocabulary development that is, how and to what extent speakers and writers of English become, like Humpty Dumpty, masters of our lexical stock. The outcomes of these investigations are of more than passing interest to educators; for word knowledge contributes significantly to achievement in the subjects of the school curriculum, as well as in formal and informal speaking and writing. In fact, a substantial body of research has been published in this century concerning the educational implications of these vocabulary studies (Dale and Razik 1963).

How David Thompson Navigated About david thompson's exploration of western Canada and the northwestern United States from 1790 to 1812, using a sextant and compass. From the Northwest Journal. http://www.northwestjournal.ca/dtnav.html
Extractions: Message to the Reader I apologize for the considerable space in this volume of Northwest Journal which is devoted to early 19th century navigation, as many readers may have only a passing interest in this topic. However, please recognize that the vast majority of the information presented in these articles has never before appeared in print. Such a complete assessment of David Thompson's techniques and skill has never been done before . I hope that the information in these articles will spur new interest in assessing the skills and contributions made by all North American geographers of that time. J. Gottfred Contents See also Period Navigation Art I. Understanding How Thompson Navigated Introduction to the Case Study By J. Gottfred. ... By J. Gottfred. The Author lecturing on Thompson's techniques at Old Fort William. (Photo by A. Gottfred) Art I. Understanding How Thompson Navigated Introduction to the Case Study By J. Gottfred. Introduction David Thompson is famous for his early exploration and mapping of western Canada and the northwestern United States. From 1790 to 1812, he traveled the Northwest using a sextant and compass to record valuable navigational information. He used this information to make some of the earliest detailed maps of the northwestern U.S. and western Canada. Paradoxically, although his navigational skills gave Thompson his claim to fame, they are poorly understood by both historians and geographers. How did he calculate his latitude and longitude, and how accurate was he? In this issue, I will use examples from Thompson's notes to illustrate and explain the navigational methods that he used.
