  • Eleven Immigrants Honored for Their Selfless Contributions to Society

(ILC) added 11 profiles of immigrants who founded U.S.-based, not-for-profit organizations to a new Social Entrepreneur section of its online Immigrant Entrepreneur Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame was launched in 2012 to honor the entrepreneurial spirit of immigrants in the U.S. and pay tribute to individual immigrants who have made significant contributions to American society. These 11 social entrepreneurs are shining examples of how the drive and spirit of American immigrants can be used to benefit others. Two of the nation’s most influential environmental organizations were founded by immigrants. John Muir, an immigrant from Scotland, co-founded the Sierra Club, and Dennis Puleston, an immigrant from England, co-founded the Environmental Defense Fund. The efforts of these men led to the passage of significant environmental protection laws and the implementation of the National Park system. Three U.S. immigrants have impacted many thousands of lives around the world through prestigious international aid organizations. Bernard Amadei, an immigrant from France, founded Engineers Without Borders. Zainab Salbi, an immigrant from Iraq, co-founded Women for Women International, and Elizabeth Silverstein, an immigrant from Austria, co-founded Counterpart International. The field of medical research has benefited greatly from the efforts of immigrants. In particular, Michael J. Fox, an immigrant from Canada, founded the Michael J.

  • Arciiltecture
    · BALBOA PARK· CENTRAL MESA PRECISE PLAN Precise Plan • Architecture ARCIIlTECTURE The goal of this section is to rehabilitate and modify the architecture of the Central Mesa ina manner which preserves its historic and aesthetic significance while providing for functional needs. The existing structures built for the 1915 and the 1935 Expositions are both historically and architecturally significant and should be reconstructed or rehabilitated. Not only should the individual structures be preserved, but the entire ensemble in its original composition should be preserved and restored wherever possible. It is the historic relationship between the built and the outdoor environment that is the hallmark of the two Expositions. Because each structure affects its site context to such a great degree, it is vital to the preservation of the historic district that every effort be made to preserve and restore original Exposition building footprints and elevations wherever possible. For this reason, emphasis has been placed on minimizing architectural additions unless they are reconstructions of significant historical features. Five major types of architectural modifications are recommended for the Central Mesa and are briefly described below. 1. Preservation and maintenance of existing structures. In the case of historically significant architecture, this involves preserving the historical significance of the structure and restoring lost historical features wherever possible. Buildings which are not historically significant should be preserved and maintained in good condition. 2. Reconstructions . This type of modification involves the reconstruction of historic buildings that have deteriorated to a point that prevents rehabilitation of the existing structure. This type of modification also includes the reconstruction of historically significant architectural features that have been lost.

  • Alcazar Garden Sign
    Alcázar Garden - Balboa Park Richard Smith Requa 1881 - 1941 Seventy years later, the Moorish tiles were beginning to show their age. Tiles were cracked, chipped, and had chunks missing. In 2008, the garden was reconstructed to replicate the 1935 design by San Diego architect Richard Requa. During the restoration they found that moisture had seeped through, as tiles are porous and grout isn't perfect. With $50,000 in donations, the Committee of One Hundred, a nonprofit group dedicated to the park's Spanish Colonial architecture, replaced the damaged tiles and renovated the water fountains to their original grace and glory. The group commissioned 1,800 tiles that replicate the originals. Richard Smith Requa was an American architect, largely During the 1915 Panama-California Exhibition, this garden was T h e y e x p e c t t h i s known for his work in San Diego, California.

A member of the El Miradero yearbook staff at Bishop’s, Karin Winner ’62 went on to major in journalism at the University of Southern California. However, her road to college was not a direct one. She was urged to postpone college and instead play tennis on the European circuit. Her talent was that good and, through some outside financial help, she honed her skills at the La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club. But Karin made a critical choice and opted for college, initially at the University of Wisconsin before transferring to USC. Very much a Mighty Gold, in addition to tennis Karin played field hockey, volleyball, and basketball while at Bishop’s. She believes that Bishop’s provided the forum for developing the attributes of a good person - manners, philosophy, spirituality, competitiveness, and humility. Karin’s first job after college was at a trade journal followed by a position at Women’s Wear Daily, where she had the opportunity to interview Rose Kennedy. She was later named West Coast editor for the publication and was integral in starting W magazine. Karin arrived at the San Diego Union in 1976 to work as a special features editor. Her rise to more managerial positions was swift. Just one year later, she was named assistant city editor, and a year after that, she became assistant manager editor- features. By 1986, Karin was working as the managing editor of the paper. In 1991 Helen Copley gave Karin the weighty job of overseeing the merger of the Union and Tribune papers.

I do not take this role lightly; I am here to serve you and will not lose sight of that commitment. I look forward to working side by side with my colleagues, the Mayor, and City Attorney.
