Check out our slideshow to recap the action. Tuesday | April 21, 2015 Construction blocks off Fifth Street from Page 1 By Jenna Press ARK Assistant City Editor The fences outlining the construction of the fu- ture fountain site are up on Fifth Street, one of the most highly-trafficked areas on campus, and stu- dents will need to find routes around them for the rest of the semester. The fences will stretch all the way from Speight Circle to MP Daniel Esplanade, the street between the Bill and Eva Williams Bear Habitat and the Bill Daniel Student Union Building. Students will be able to cut through the construction area near Car- roll Science Hall and Morrison Hall. San Antonio freshman Heather Smith said the fence is somewhat inconvenient right now since it can get somewhat crowded around the area. “There’s not a lot of space to cross Fifth Street over there,” Smith said. According to an email from Baylor NewsFlash, bicycles and mopeds can no longer be ridden on Fifth Street, and bike racks will be relocated as close as possible to the original spots of Fifth Street.

  • Those Days in Muramatsu
    Those Days in Muramatsu Diary by Mrs. Yumi Goto Publications of the Center for East Asian Studies University of Kansas Electronic Series, Number 2 Center for East Asian Studies Map of Japan 2 Map of Muramatsu 3 Introduction Grant K. Goodman "It's disconcerting that people who behaved so badly in war can behave so admirably in defeat."1 Neither any historical document nor any scholarly account has been able to recapture the mood of Japanese-American grassroots interaction in 1945 in the way that Mrs. Yumi Goto does in Those Days in Muramatsu. As one who was there in Japan as a member of the American forces in 1945-1946 and as a trained historian of Japan, I feel especially qualified to evaluate the remarkable evocation of an era which Mrs. Goto recounts. Certainly memories dim and memory plays tricks on all of us, but, since Mrs. Goto recorded her experiences contemporaneously, one feels the profound veracity of her writing. Moreover, the most unusual phenomenon of a Japanese woman purposefully recording her impressions in English so that some day they might be read by Americans reinforces her credibility. I am particularly pleased to attest to my great personal delight as well as my intense response when Mrs. Goto's work first came to my attention. Indeed, it was her son, Kenichi, the distinguished scholar of modern Indonesia and my colleague and friend of many years, who was kind enough to share his mother's manuscript with me. In fact, he himself had not known of the existence of Those Days in Muramatsu until about ten years ago at the time of Mrs.

  • Whitney Houston's Millions: What Bobbi Kristina Brown May Leave
    Whitney Houston’s Millions: What Bobbi Kristina Brown May Leave Behind and Who Stands to Gain Culture | By Matt Donnelly and Anita Bennett on February 19, 2015 Legal experts tell TheWrap who would be entitled to the family fortune following Brown’s death Updated on Sunday, July 26, 2015 at 8:45 p.m. Bobbi Kristina Brown, daughter of late singer Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, died on Sunday, July 26 at the age of 22. Her untimely death came after she was found face-down and unresponsive in a bathtub at her Georgia home on Jan. 31, and spent months receiving medical care. Brown was the sole beneficiary of Houston’s fortune when the music legend died in 2012. For insight into the possible financial scenarios that could play out following Brown’s death, TheWrap spoke with an attorney who has reviewed a copy of Houston’s will, as well as a Los Angeles tax lawyer well-versed in dealing with celebrity clients and large estates. Whitney‟s Last Will and Testament Attorney Bruce H. Gaynes, of Georgia-based Kitchens Kelley Gaynes, P.C., has reviewed a copy of Houston’s will and explained its parameters. Drafted about 20 years ago, the will named Bobbi Kristina sole heir to the estate. But instead of inheriting Houston’s fortune all at once, the will stipulated that Bobbi Kristina would receive the money in a series of payments over nine years: 10 percent at age 21, a 30 percent distribution at 25 and the remainder at age 30. Bobbi Kristina, therefore, had only received the first payment in the distribution plan.

  • Bobbi Kristina's Engagement Ring Is an Exact Replica of Kate
    YAHOO! OMG DISCOVER YAHOO! WITH YOUR Login FRIENDS Bobbi Kristina’s engagement ring is an exact replica of Kate Middleton’s – minus a few carats, says expert By Kathleen Perricone | omg! from Yahoo! – Thu, Oct 11, 2012 12:53 PM PDT Update on October 12: Bobbi Kristina Brown's rep denies that the teen and Nick Gordon are engaged, but adds, "You have to watch the show!" --------------------------------------------------- It’s a ring fit for a princess! So it makes sense that it should decorate the fingers of both Kate Middleton and the daughter of the “Queen of the Night,” Whitney Houston. It was revealed today that Bobbi Kristina Brown, 19, is indeed engaged to Nick Gordon, who the late singer raised as her son. On Twitter, Bobbi Kristina posted a photo of the bling her 22-year-old beau gave her: a 15- carat sapphire stunner surrounded by 1.5 carats of diamonds that may look a little familiar … like the one that adorns the hand of Prince William’s wife! “It’s a definite copy of her ring,” Anthony Sarkissian of Premier Jewelry Lenders in Beverly Hills tells omg!. “The shape of the stone, the way it’s set, having it made in platinum, the thinness of the shank … it’s a carbon copy of [Kate’s ring].” [Related: Is Bobbi Kristina Brown engaged?] Bobbi Kristina’s is just a teeny bit smaller. Kate’s sapphire, which once belonged to Princess Diana, is 18 carats. The teen’s version could be worth anywhere from $50,000 to $100,000, depending on its oval-cut center stone.
