This edition is focused on the numbers. The City of Dana Point was incorporated in 1989, 100 years after the County of Orange was established in 1889. The City will celebrate its 25th anniversary and the County will celebrate its 125th anniversary in 2014. Two Years Before the Mast by Richard Henry Dana became a bestseller upon publication in 1840, and can still be found on featured shelves in bookstores. Dana’s 1835 visit and journals also inspired his friend Herman Melville to write the 1851 classic Moby Dick. • Dana Point has over 1,900 hotel rooms and has long been a popular destination for residents and visitors. Dana Point has more hotel rooms than any other coastal Orange County city. It is estimated that 50% of City revenues result from tourism. • Dana Point has over 100 restaurants. • Dana Point has 7.5 miles of Pacific Ocean coastline. CITY NEWS • Dana Point includes 6.5 square miles of land. • Dana Point has 23 parks, including the Harry Otsubo Community Gardens and 5 park doggy fun zones. • The Dana Point Headlands includes 60 acres of parks, with 105 native plant and 109 native animal species. • Strand Vista Park has 68 mosaic fish along the 1400 foot walkway. • Doheny State Beach has 62 acres and 122 campsites.

Reduce, Reuse and Recycle is a philosophy that the City of Dana Point embraces and puts into practice daily to exhibit leadership in governance in all aspects of City business and functionality. A long-term goal behind this environmental philosophy is to address plastic---all kinds of plastic--- that are persistent in our environment. All the plastic ever made is still around, in landfills, floating as ocean debris, on beaches and scattered across the land. As a coastal community, Dana Point has a strong interest in protecting the ocean, our local beaches and the marine environment which all contribute to the unique quality of life enjoyed in Dana Point. Dana Point’s City Council has taken steps to help protect our beaches and oceans by reducing overall urban blight such as litter from plastic bags and Styrofoam. On February 21, 2012 and March 6, 2012, respectively, the Dana Point City Council approved Ordinances restricting Styrofoam take-out food service containers (effective date October 1, 2012) and single-use plastic carry-out bags at local retail establishments (effective date April 1, 2013 for the defined large retail establishments and October 1, 2013 for all other retail establishments excluding restaurants). With the adopted restrictions becoming effective within the next 6 to 18 months, this will allow local businesses time to exhaust their existing inventories of Styrofoam and plastic bags. During this transition time, Dana Point residents will begin to see changes taking place to achieve the City’s goal of eliminating these products all together from our streets, creeks and beaches.

    THE CLASH OF TWO IMAGES CHINA’S MEDIA OFFENSIVE IN THE UNITED STATES by FAN BU MAY 2013 Committee Fritz Cropp, Chair Clyde Bentley Wesley Pippert ii THE CLASH OF TWO IMAGES CHINA’S MEDIA OFFENSIVE IN THE UNITED STATES Fan Bu Fritz Cropp, Project Supervisor ABSTRACT At a time when most Western newspaper and broadcasting companies are scaling back, China's state-run media organizations are fast growing and reaching into every corner of the world, especially in North America and Africa. The $7 billion campaign to expand China’s soft power has significantly increased its media presence. But are these media offensive efforts effective?

But I never realized how biased the programs were until I traveled back home recently after studying and working in journalism in the United States for five years. In the half-hour show, international news normally takes 5 to 10 minutes, most of which report on negative news around the world, such as riots in the Middle East or the economic crisis in Europe.

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.
