If you have conducted a Senior Wish you'd like featured, please Share Your Story with OESF. Shirley’s Sternwheeler Cruise Click on individual pictures to view larger “I feel I am still living the wish”, exclaimed teary eyed Shirley a week after her big day. Despite having various chronic health issues, this beautiful (inside and out), aging soul always puts the needs/wants of doing for others on the top of her daily to do list. She may be making sure her peers at the social center are getting their needs met (and will do what she can to assist them), she may be making wonderful scarves to be gifted as “just because” gifts, or she may be going around table to table greeting each individual with a huge smile and warm greeting…what a true lady Shirley is. When asked, “why the Sternwheeler?” Shirley responded there were two reasons. First, this was something that she and her daughter, Carol had always wanted to do so why not take this amazing opportunity to go? And secondly, Shirley told a brief story of a woman she once knew who had lived in France not far from the Eiffle Tower. The woman never took the opportunity to see this glorious landmark even though it was so closer to her. Shirley then stated, “The Columbia River is one of the most beautiful and historic rivers…this was my Eiffle Tower!” Shirley then gave some words of wisdom expressing that we should all enjoy the beauty that is all around us and stated if tourists come to visit these places in our backyard, we should certainly go and enjoy them as well.

  • Birds of a Feather: the Coconut Grove Audubon Society, 1915-1917
    Birds of a Feather: The Coconut Grove Audubon Society, 1915-1917 By Emily Perry Dieterich Three Things to Remember A robin redbreast in a cage Puts all Heaven in a rage. A skylark wounded on the wing Doth make a cherub cease to sing. He who shall hurt the little wren Shall never be beloved by men. William Blake Organized bird protection in the United States began with the formation of the American Ornithological Union (AOU) in 1883. Addressing this specific concern, member William Brewster, curator of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard, moved to form a "Committee for the Protection of North American Birds" at the Union's annual meeting in 1884 (Robin Doughty, Feather Fashions and Bird Preservations:157-58). The original Audubon Society was born several years later, the brainchild of the noted naturalist and outdoorsman, George Bird Grinnell, editor of FieldandStream, the leading sportsmen's magazine of the time. Although a big game hunter himself, Grinnell was appalled by the slaughter of both game and non-game birds. "Gunners shot them for sport," he wrote, "small boys killed them for fun, and egg collectors robbed their nests." (Carl Buchheister and Frank Graham, "From the Swamps and Baclc" 7). While researching this story, Emily Perry Dieterich was director of environ- mental education for the Tropical Audubon Society. Currently she is the research historian for Metro-Dade Department of Historical Preservation. 6 TEQUESTA In February 1886 Grinnell suggested in a front page editorial of his magazine that "concerned men and women create an organi- zation for the protection of wild birds and their eggs, its administration to be undertaken by the magazine's staff." Grinnell had grown up near the home of Audubon and even attended a school for young boys conducted by Lucy Audubon.

Back in the 1940s, she said, University of Miami (UM) football players would sometimes assist with heavy lifting projects around the Garden. Any time there were massive boulders or tree trunks to be moved,A Dr. David Fairchild would phone the UM football coach and make a plea for help. I have never found proof of this in our archives, but the story fits with what we know of Dr. Fairchild’s creativity and persuasiveness. It also reflects a collaborative spirit that still exists between our Garden and local universities. Today we still have massive projects we can’t do ourselves, and we receive help from UM, Florida International University (FIU) and Miami-Dade College (MDC) in unexpected ways.

  • INTRODUCTION Although the Mango Tree Is Not Indigenous to Kenya, It Has Been Cultivated in the Coast Province for Centuries
    INTRODUCTION Although the mango tree is not indigenous to Kenya, it has been cultivated in the Coast Province for centuries. Traders in ivory and slaves brought seed into the country during the 14th century. Mango trees were reported in Somalia as early as 1331. The mango is one of the most important fruit crops in the tropical and subtropical lowlands. It is native to India, Bangladesh, Myanmar and Malaysia, but can be found growing in more than 60 other countries throughout the world (Salim et al., 2002). The mango is best adapted to a warm tropical monsoon climate with a pronounced dry season (>3 months) followed by rains. However, information from other countries indicates that crops cultivated for a long time over an extended area show a high degree of diversity due to varied environmental influences. This was likely also true for the mango seedlings first introduced in Kenya which were all polyembryonic. They can be multiplied by seeding and generally produce true-to-type progeny. Some of these are still productive, e.g. along the Tana River, and some of them have been given names which to this day are still valued. Kitoovu, Kimji, Klarabu, Punda and Mayai are of poor quality but better known are cultivars like Apple, Ngowe, Boribo, Batawi and Dodo. Of these, a few have steadily lost ground to a generation of cultivars introduced in the 1970s and 1980s distinguished by greater resistance to anthracnose (Colletotrichum), powdery mildew (Oidium), their very attractive colour and good shelf life. 1 USES AND FOOD VALUE The mango—because of its attractive appearance and the very pleasant taste of selected cultivars—is claimed to be the most important fruit of the tropics.

E-mail: [email protected]. 2Universidade de Pemambuco, Petrolina, Pemambuco, Brazil, CEP: 56.302-970. Abstract The goal of this study was to evaluate mango progenies derived from crosses among Tommy Atkins and other three monoembryonic mango varieties - Keitt, Palmer and Van Dyke. The progenies were installed at the Embrapa Semi- Arid Experimental Field Station, located at Juazeiro, Bahia, Brazil. Some fruit characters, important to new mango varieties, such as weight, length, width, soluble solids content (OBrix), acidity content and "Brix/acidity content ratio were evaluated in true hybrids. Putative progenies for ali crosses were obtained in 2002 by harvesting fruits from 'Keitt' or 'Palmer' or 'Van Dyke' plants dispersed in 'Tommy Atkins' orchards found in São Francisco Valley, in order to take advantage of natural crosspollination that occurs in the mango species. True progenies were dec1ared based on microsatellite analyses. Management with pac1obutrazol, silver nitrate and irrigation were applied to reduce the mango juvenile period. Progenies were evaluated in three successive cycles: 2007-2008, 2009-20 IOand 2010-20 1l. Fruit weight ranged from 15l.74 to 1,219.48 g, fruit length ranged from 6.8 to 22.7 em, fruit width ranged from 4.3 to 12.5 em, soluble solids content ranged from 9.9 to 27.0oBrix, acid content ranged from 0.06 to 1.34 and the "Brix/acidity content ratio ranged from 10.34 to 234.29.
