  • Off-Roaders in Action
    CALIFORNIA OFF­ROAD VEHICLE ASSOCIATION Volume 21 Issue 4 November 2008 CORVA OFF­ROADERS CALIFORNIA OFF-ROAD VEHICLE ASSOCIATION www.corva.org IN ACTION A United Front Currently the motorized recreation community is facing a number of major land use issues throughout the state of California which threaten our legitimate access to public lands. Nowhere is this threat better illustrated than the recent proposal from the Department of Defense (DOD) to transfer all or part of the 189,000 acre Johnson Valley OHV Area from the BLM (with open access) to the military (with no public access). Based on this recent proposal, representatives from state, local and national OHV organizations have met several times to formulate a comprehensive response. While we certainly support proper training of our troops, especially during a time of war, the groups agreed to champion alternatives or options that will allow the military to fulfill its need without losing a sin­ gle acre of our beloved recreation opportunities. In order to be fully prepared to engage in the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process that the DOD is required to follow, we will continue to work together to form cohesive strategies and alternatives. We will be submitting comments that will require the DOD to justify the need for this land, especially given the impacts to the OHV recreation, the local com­ munity, and the surrounding environment. We will also seek the advice of our attorneys and lobbyists. Most important, our goal is to use the NEPA process to stop the Marines from moving into Johnson Valley.

  • OBHOF INDUCTEES Why We Honor Them 2104
    OBHOF INDUCTEES 2104 Why We HonorThem: Dr. Harold Aldridge March 3, 2014 Aldridge sings the blues Dr. Harold Aldridge is a retired professor of psychology at NSU in Tahlequah. Tahlequah Daily Press By RENEE FITE Special Writer TAHLEQUAH — The gray is beginning to cover his once-black hair, and it shows when the tall, lanky musician adjusts his black felt cowboy hat. He’s admits to being a little nervous. To keep his hands busy and mind occupied before the show begins, he tunes his guitar, glancing around the room, waving or nodding to friends. “An Evening of Blues Music,” presented at Webb Tower by Dr. Harold Aldridge, professor emeritus of psychology at Northeastern State University, was in observance of Black History month. After a brief introduction and enthusiastic applause, Aldridge began with a joke. “As the milk cow said to the dairy man, ‘Thanks for the warm hand,’” he said. For the next hour, the audience was taken on a journey through black history via the blues, from deep in the Mississippi Delta, to Alabama, the East Coast, Kansas City, Oklahoma, Texas and California. “I’m going to tell you the history of blues, and hopefully, it will be entertaining,” Aldridge said. “I stick with the old stuff, from Memphis, Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee.” According to Aldridge, blues music is evolving. “It’s almost like rock in some places; I guess next we’ll have rap blues,” he said. As his story unfolded, the audience learned the blues has changed with varying locations and situations. “The blues originated in West Africa and came here as a feeling, the soul of it, the spirit of high John the Conqueror,” said the Aldridge.

  • American Folklife Center & Veterans History Project Annual Report for FY2008
    AMERICAN FOLKLIFE CENTER & VETERANS HISTORY PROJECT Library of Congress Annual Report, Fiscal Year 2008 (October 2007-September 2008) The American Folklife Center (AFC), which includes the Veterans History Project (VHP), had another productive year. Over a quarter million items were acquired by the AFC Archive, which is the country’s first national archive of traditional life, and one of the oldest and largest of such repositories in the world. About 240,000 items were processed, and thus made available to researchers at the Library and beyond. In addition, the Center continued to expand programming through symposia, concerts, and public lectures; by providing field school training to universities and international organizations; and by providing technical assistance to individuals and groups. AFC also continued to be a leader in international discussions concerning traditional culture and intellectual property, and the AFC director served as a member of US delegations to meetings convened by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), UNESCO, and the Organization of American States (OAS). Both AFC and VHP provided substantial services to Congress. The Veterans History Project (VHP) continued making major strides in its mission to collect and preserve the stories of our nation's veterans, receiving upwards of 100 collections a week and acquiring over 22,000 items. The maturation of the Project was reflected by its partnership with WETA-TV and PBS in their presentation of the Ken Burns film, The War, which told the story of World War II through the memories of individual veterans from four American towns. VHP also continued to foster solid working relationships with a wide variety of project participants nationwide, including the U.S.

The preferred option will maintain the current boardwalk configuration in the basin, and make improvements to the trail from the main park road. The geothermal basin and the trail to it are closed this year, for work on the trail. According park spokeswoman Karen Haner, the necessary approvals for the work are expected in May, but due to snow at the park work won’t start then. The first step will be replacing the boardwalks with new structures designed to handle winter snow loads and the acidic conditions in the basin. They would be modular and could be moved as necessitated by the changes of the thermal features. The preferred alternative calls for enlarging the viewing platforms in the basin at both the Big Boiler and Pyrite Pool.

  • DISNEYLAND Grand Opening on 7/17/1955 the Happiest Place on Earth Wasn't Anything of the Sort for 13 Months of Pandemic Closure
    Monday, July 19, 2021 | No. 177 Film Flashback…DISNEYLAND Grand Opening on 7/17/1955 The Happiest Place on Earth wasn't anything of the sort for 13 months of pandemic closure. But, happily, Disneyland began coming back to life in late April and by June 15 wasn't facing any capacity restrictions. Now it's celebrating the 66th anniversary of its Grand Opening July 17, 1955. To help finance Disneyland's construction in Anaheim, Calif., which began July 16, 1954, Walt Disney struck a deal with the then fledgling ABC-TV Network to produce the legendary DISNEYLAND series. For helping Walt raise the $17M he needed -- about $135M today -- ABC also got the right to broadcast the opening day events. Originally, July 17 was just an International Press Preview and July 18 was to be the official launch. But July 17's been remembered over the years as the Big Day thanks to ABC's live coverage -- despite things not having gone well with the show hosted by Walt's Hollywood pals Art Linkletter, Bob Cummings & Ronald Reagan. Live TV was in its infancy then and the miles of camera cables it used had people tripping all over the park. In Frontierland, a camera caught Cummings kissing a dancer. Walt was reading a plaque in Tomorrowland on camera when a technician started talking to him, causing Walt to stop and start again from the beginning. Over in Fantasyland, Linkletter sent the coverage back to Cummings on a pirate ship, but Bob wasn't ready, so he sent it right back to Art, who no longer had his microphone.
