Mr. Moyer is the son of working class parents and was the first member of his family to attend college. During high school, he competed in the sport of wrestling. His passion for wrestling coupled with a desire to further his education, led him to Cerritos Junior College, where he wrestled at the 177 lb. weight class and was a member of the 1995 State Championship Team. After graduating with Highest Honors, Mr. Moyer transferred from Cerritos College to Concordia University in Irvine, where he graduated Magna Cum Laude and earned both a B.A. in English Literature and a M.A. in Education, with an emphasis in Curriculum and Instruction. Mr. Moyer was hired by Lutheran High School of Orange County, where he served for seven years in a number of roles, including English teacher, English Department Chair, Head Wrestling Coach, and Summer School Principal. While at Lutheran High School, Mr. Moyer had the opportunity to serve in leadership roles, which he found were well-suited to his gifts. With a growing passion in the area of school leadership, Mr. Moyer attended Azuza Pacific University and earned an Administrative Credential. He transitioned from Lutheran High School to St. Paul’s Lutheran School of Orange, where he served as Vice Principal. During his time at St. Paul’s, the school’s enrollment grew to over 600 students - the highest enrollment in the school’s history. After five successful years at St. Paul’s and with an interest in returning to the high school level, Mr. Moyer accepted the position of Vice Principal of Academics at Crean Lutheran High School in Irvine.

    NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY SHELDON SILVER, SPEAKER committee on Veterans’ Affairs William B. Magnarelli, Chair Annual Report December 15, 2010 Honorable Sheldon Silver Speaker New York State Assembly Room 932 Legislative Office Building Albany, New York 12248 Dear Mr. Speaker, It is with great pleasure that I forward to you the 2010 Annual Report of the New York State Assembly Standing Committee on Veterans’ Affairs. In early March, I was honored, Mr. Speaker, to be named by you as chair of this important committee. I hope to continue the Assembly tradition of leadership that has been established since the committee was created in 1983. Several significant measures became law this year, including legislation that provides funeral directors, undertakers, and funeral firms in possession of cremated remains for more than one hundred and twenty days a method of determining if such remains are those of a veteran and how they may be disposed of, with the help of certain veterans’ service organizations. This legislation will significantly facilitate the interment of veterans’ unclaimed remains by removing the barriers that now exist, while effectively providing the legal protection necessary to funeral directors and veterans’ organizations alike as part of this noble endeavor. Some of the other measures enacted into law included: extension of the statute of limitations for cases based on torturous exposure of military personnel in Indo-china to phenoxy herbicide (Agent Orange); requiring the division of veterans’ affairs to maintain a small business portal on the division’s website; and the extension at local option of the redemption period for residential property for certain persons deployed by the military to four or five years.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. This Act may be cited as the ‘‘American Fighter Aces Congres- sional Gold Medal Act’’. SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

  • Influence of Spring River Flow on the Recruitment of Japanese Seaperch Lateolabrax Japonicus Into the Chikugo Estuary, Japan
    RECENT ADVANCES IN THE STUDY OF SCIENTIA MARINA 70S2 FISH EGGS AND LARVAE October 2006, 159-164, Barcelona (Spain) M.P. Olivar and J.J. Govoni (eds.) ISSN: 0214-8358 Influence of spring river flow on the recruitment of Japanese seaperch Lateolabrax japonicus into the Chikugo estuary, Japan JUN SHOJI 1 and MASARU TANAKA 2 1 Takehara Fisheries Research Station, Hiroshima University, Minato-machi 5-8-1, Takehara, Hiroshima 725-0024, Japan. E-mail: [email protected] 2 Laboratory of Estuarine Ecology, Centre for Education and Research of Field Science, Kyoto University, Sakyo, Kyoto 606-8502, Japan. SUMMARY: The estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM) zone is considered to serve as a predation refuge for fish during the early life stages due to the high turbidity and high prey concentration. River flow can be one of the important determinants for survival of early life stages of estuarine dependent fish because it affects both the physical and biological properties of the ETM. We tested the hypothesis that fluctuation of river flow explains the variability in recruitment of Japanese seaperch Lateolabrax japonicus around the ETM region of the Chikugo River estuary, upper Ariake Bay, Japan. Japanese seaperch recruitment showed a 43.3-fold fluctuation from 1990 to 2000 and was inversely correlated with the mean daily river flow of the Chikugo River in March. The recruitment was high and variable in years of low March river flow and was poor in years of high March river flow. We conclude that high river flow potentially decreases Japanese seaperch recruitment in the Chikugo River estuary by blocking the larval migration into the river and by increasing the probability of larval dispersion to the downriver/upper bay areas, where potential predators (jellyfish and Sagitta spp.) were more abundant, and prey (Sinocalanus sinensis) availability and turbidity were lower.

  • Congressional Gold Medals: Background, Legislative Process, and Issues for Congress
    Congressional Gold Medals: Background, Legislative Process, and Issues for Congress Updated April 8, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45101 Congressional Gold Medals: Background, Legislative Process, and Issues for Congress Summary Senators and Representatives are frequently asked to support or sponsor proposals recognizing historic events and outstanding achievements by individuals or institutions. Among the various forms of recognition that Congress bestows, the Congressional Gold Medal is often considered the most distinguished. Through this venerable tradition—the occasional commissioning of individually struck gold medals in its name—Congress has expressed public gratitude on behalf of the nation for distinguished contributions for more than two centuries. Since 1776, this award, which initially was bestowed on military leaders, has also been given to such diverse individuals as Sir Winston Churchill and Bob Hope, George Washington and Robert Frost, Joe Louis and Mother Teresa of Calcutta. Congressional gold medal legislation generally has a specific format. Once a gold medal is authorized, it follows a specified process for design, minting, and presentation. This process includes consultation and recommendations by the Citizens Coinage Advisory Commission (CCAC) and the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts (CFA), pursuant to any statutory instructions, before the Secretary of the Treasury makes the final decision on a gold medal’s design. Once the medal has been struck, a ceremony will often be scheduled to formally award the medal to the recipient. In recent years, the number of gold medals awarded has increased, and some have expressed interest in examining the gold medal authorization and awarding process. Should Congress want to make such changes, several individual and institutional options might be available.
