    Reprinted with permission from the American Oil & Gas Historical Society http://aoghs.org/oil-almanac/sinclair-dinosaur/ Dinosaur Fever – Sinclair’s Icon by Bruce Wells, Executive Director Formed by Harry F. Sinclair in 1916, Sinclair Oil is one of the oldest continuous names in the oil industry. The Sinclair dinosaur first appeared in 1930. “Dino” quickly became a marketing icon whose popularity with children – and educational value – remains to this day. The first Sinclair “Brontosaurus” trademark made its debut in Chicago during the 1933-1934 “Century of Progress” World’s Fair. Sinclair published a special edition newspaper, Big News, describing the exhibit. The first “Brontosaurus” trademark made its debut in Chicago during the 1933-1934 “Century of Progress” World’s Fair. The Sinclair dinosaur exhibit drew large crowds once again at the 1936 Texas Centennial Exposition. Four years later, even more visitors marvelled at an improved 70-foot dinosaur in Sinclair’s “Dinoland Pavilion” at the 1939-1940 New York World’s Fair. Today known more correctly as Apatosaurus, in the 1960s a 70-foot “Dino” Sinclair’s green giant and his accompanying cast of Jurassic traveled more 10,000 miles through 25 states – stopping at shopping centers and other venues where children were introduced to the wonders of the buddies, including Triceratops, Stegosaurus, a duck-billed Mesozoic era courtesy of Sinclair Oil.

  • Acting 'Drug Czar' Walks the Talk
    Acting ‘Drug Czar’ Walks the Talk Navigate to the Next Story in this Section Botticelli: At D.C. drug-court graduation.(Anita Jarman, D.C. Courts) By Clara Ritger May 28, 2014 In front of a boisterous courtroom packed with recovering drug addicts and their family members sat an array of security guards and one neatly dressed White House official. Michael Botticelli, acting director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy, makes a habit of stopping by graduation ceremonies for the drug-court system—for both personal and professional reasons. The event last week in downtown Washington saw five people graduate from the city’s drug court, an alternative to the criminal-justice system that provides treatment for addicts and, in some cases—depending on state and local laws—allows them to return to society without a record provided they haven’t relapsed. Three of four drug-court graduates remain arrest-free for at least two years after leaving the program, according to the National Association of Drug Court Professionals. The drug-court system started about two decades ago, and already more than 2,700 drug courts are operating in the United States, according to the National Drug Court Institute. Botticelli was not completely out of place in the crowd; 26 years ago, at the age of 30, he was brought to court for drunken driving. He remembers the judge giving him two choices: Enter the criminal-justice system or get help for his alcohol addiction. He chose the latter. Botticelli’s experience led him to a lifetime of work helping people with substance-abuse problems.

Recalibrating Judicial Renominations in the Trump Administration Carl Tobias* Abstract Now that President Donald Trump has commenced the fifth month of his administration, federal courts experience 121 circuit and district court vacancies. These statistics indicate that Mr. Trump has a valuable opportunity to approve more judges than any new President. The protracted open judgeships detrimentally affect people and businesses engaged in federal court litigation, because they restrict the expeditious, inexpensive and equitable disposition of cases. Nevertheless, the White House has been treating crucial issues that mandate careful attention—specifically establishing a government, confirming a Supreme Court Justice, and keeping numerous campaign promises. How, accordingly, can President Trump fulfill these critical duties and his constitutional responsibility to nominate and, with Senate advice and consent, appoint judges? This Article initially canvasses judicial appointments in the administration of President Barack Obama.

  • Democracy, Strategic Interests & U.S. Foreign Policy in the Arab World: A
    1 The University of Washington Bothell Democracy, Strategic Interests & U.S. Foreign Policy in the Arab World: A Multiple Case Study of Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan & Saudi Arabia Kelly Berg A Capstone project presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Policy Studies through the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences June 2015 2 Abstract What determines U.S. foreign policy in the Arab world? In order to address this question, an inductive multiple case study of Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia was conducted. These four Arab countries were selected due to their varying political positions and relationships with the U.S. I argue that the U.S.’s prioritization of strategic interests trumps or, in some cases, stifles support for the democratic process within the context of U.S. foreign policy in the Arab world, and that “democracy” is only advocated for when it serves U.S. desire for stability and hegemony throughout the region. Examining Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia demonstrates that political stability in the region, resistance to terrorism and unrest, Israel’s interests, and economic gains through oil and weapon production and sales are the U.S.’s key priorities. The results of this study will contribute to the existing literature by providing a comprehensive assessment of complex interdependence and political incongruences in U.S. foreign policy in the Arab world. 3 Acknowledgements I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my advisor and mentor, Professor Karam Dana, whose encouragement, advice, wisdom, and support proved to be invaluable to my academic journey.

    Comparative Connections A Triannual E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations US-China Relations: Navigating Friction, Forging Cooperation Bonnie Glaser, CSIS/Pacific Forum CSIS Alexandra Viers, CSIS The South China Sea remained the most contentious issue in the US-China relationship in the early months of 2016. North Korea’s fourth nuclear test and missile launches posed both a challenge and an opportunity. After two months of intense consultations, the US and China struck a deal that led to unprecedentedly tough sanctions on Pyongyang. Xi Jinping attended the Nuclear Security Summit in Washington DC at the end of March and held a bilateral meeting with President Obama. Their joint statements called for cooperation on nuclear security and climate change. Relations between the militaries hit a snag as Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter postponed a planned visit to China and Beijing rejected a request for a US aircraft carrier battle group to visit Hong Kong. Talks continued on a bilateral investment treaty, but China failed to submit a new “negative list,” leaving prospects uncertain for concluding a BIT by the end of Obama’s term. South China Sea continues to cause friction Tensions between the US and China over the South China Sea simmered throughout the first four months of 2016 as a ruling neared in the case brought by the Philippines against China over Beijing’s maritime claims. The first episode took place at the end of January when a US guided- missile destroyer, the USS Curtis Wilbur, conducted a freedom of navigation (FON) operation within 12nm of Triton Island in the Paracel Island chain.

  • University of Mount Union Christmas Festival Thursday, December 4, 11:15 A.M., Friday, December 5, 7:30 P.M
    I Sing the Birth University of Mount Union Christmas Festival Thursday, December 4, 11:15 a.m., Friday, December 5, 7:30 p.m. and Saturday, December 6, 7:30 p.m., Myers Sanctuary, Dewald Chapel Christmas at the University of Mount Union With a distinguished legacy that is deeply rooted in the very history of the institution, the choral program at the University of Mount attracts attention wherever and whenever it performs. Crowds gather to take in the musical splendor of our student vocalists – on campus, in the community and around the world. The study of music has played a significant role in the exceptional experience we provide at Mount Union since the very first days of the institution’s 168-year history. It’s fundamental to our philosophy, our liberal arts foundation and our mission to prepare students for fulfilling lives, meaningful work and responsible citizenship. Music is, without a doubt, a long-standing tradition at the University. This evening, we join to hear the performances of our Concert Choir and Cantus Femina, two vocal ensembles that are integral components of our music program. Our annual holiday concert – a relatively new addition to the institution’s rich history of musical performance – unites choral selections and traditional carols with scripture and readings of the season. This event is truly one-of-a-kind, and we, as listeners, have the great fortune of basking in its uniqueness. In past years, audiences have sung the praises of Child of Light, The-Heart-in-Waiting and When All the Stars Held Their Breath and this year’s I Sing the Birth promises to be another outstanding performance that none of us will soon forget.
