Lubeznik Center Presents 2007 Regional Juried Art Exhibition by Paula Mchugh THE TM 911 Franklin Street Weekly Newspaper Michigan City, IN 46360 Volume 23, Number 5 Thursday, February 8, 2007 Lubeznik Center Presents 2007 Regional Juried Art Exhibition by Paula McHugh Milo, Mabel and Elmer appeared deep in conver- sation. It was a few days before the opening recep- tion and awards ceremony for winners of the 2007 Regional Juried Art Exhibition at the Lubeznik Center for the Arts and they had the Hyndman Gal- lery practically to themselves. Canvases of various sizes, yet to be hung, leaned against the walls of the 2400 square-foot gallery. The juried exhibit at- tracted 291 submissions, to which juror T.L. Solien whittled his choices down to 59 accepted exhibitors. The trio of wood and acrylic fi gures, sitting on high, carved stools, spoke silently to the man who would single out his top choices for the award presenta- tion. Elmer, clad in painted coveralls and defying the convention of wearing shoes in such a classy gallery, did his creator proud: Steve Rebora claimed First Prize for his three-dimensional, cartoon-like char- Milo, Mabel and Elmer appeared deep in conversation.

Citing a fondness for the story of Pinocchio, Steve told us that he felt a little like Gepetto when he was carving his three whimsical fi g- ures. “Look at Elmer’s nose,” Steve instructed, adding that he had con- sidered making the farmer’s ski-jump nose even longer. The artist also gave us permission to touch his fi gures and rearrange their fl ex- ible hands. “Notice how their conversation seems different when you change the position of their hands?” Steve asked. Yes. We certainly did notice. The artist told us that he received many comments about the texture of Mabel’s hair, as well as praise for the fi gures’ sartorial taste. “All the credit for the (clothing’s) colors goes to my wife. She told me which colors to use,” Steve said. Mabel, Elmer and Milo are “dressed” in appealing pastel hues. Steve, a Notre Dame graduate with an art degree, took the more “practical” route of earning his living in the carpet business after serv- ing in the Navy. Yet he said that his immersion into art, especially his love of working in wood, never faded.

  • Secondary Abdominal Compartment Syndrome Following Severe Extremity Injury: Unavoidable Or Unnecessary?
    Session IV Poster # 1 SECONDARY ABDOMINAL COMPARTMENT SYNDROME FOLLOWING SEVERE EXTREMITY INJURY: UNAVOIDABLE OR UNNECESSARY? Bryan A Cotton MD, Michael C Madigan BS, Clinton D Kemp MD, J Chad Johnson MD PhD, John A Morris Jr MD*, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, TN Introduction: Secondary abdominal compartment syndrome (2ACS) is the development of ACS in the absence of abdominal injury. 2ACS is often viewed as an unavoidable sequela of the large volume crystalloid resuscitation “required” to treat severe shock. We hypothesized that early, aggressive resuscitation techniques place patients with severe extremity injuries at risk for developing 2ACS. Methods: The TRACS database was queried for all patients with extremity AIS of 3 or greater and abdominal AIS of 0 treated at our institution between 01/01/2001-12/31/2005. The study group included those patients who developed 2ACS, while the comparison cohort included those who did not develop 2ACS. Results: 48 patients developed 2 ACS and were compared to 48 randomly sampled patients who had extremity AIS of ? 3 and abdomen AIS of 0. There were no differences between the groups with respect to age, sex, race, or individual AIS scores. However, the 2ACS group had a higher ISS (25.6 vs 21.4, p=0.02), higher OR crystalloid administration (9.9 L vs 2.7 L, p<0.001), and more frequent use of a rapid infuser (12.5% vs 0.0%, p=0.01). 65% of those who developed 2ACS did so within 12 hours of admission. Multiple logistic regression identified pre-hospital and ED crystalloid volume as predictors of 2ACS.

    VOLUME 22 I NUMBER 2 I SUMMER 2000 upwellings MJCHJGAN SEA GRA NT COLLEGE PROGR ARCHIVES Dive Into History MICHIGAN NAMES TENTH UNDERWATER PRESERVE Autumn of 1887 was a dangerous time to be on Lake Michigan. A violent October storm caught two ships off guard. The two-masted schooner Havana foundered and sank just short of the harbor at St. Joseph. The same storm hit the schooner City of Green Bay, driving the ship ashore near South Haven and leaving only one survivor. Today, both wrecks lie at the bottom of southern Lake Michigan. The wrecks are two of the dive sites in the new Southwest Michigan Underwater Preserve. The preserve was officiallydesignated on Nov. 11, 1999 and is Michigan's tenth. The initiativeto seek designationbegan several years ago when former curator Ken Pott of the Michigan Maritime Museum in South Haven and several local divers recognized the significance of the area's underwater resources and formedthe Southwest Michigan Underwater Preserve Committee. With assistance fromMichigan Sea Grant, committee members submitted a proposal fordesignation to the State of Michigan in 1991. Michigan Sea Grant has been instrumental in helping coastal communities establish and promote underwater preserves since 1980. The Southwest Michigan Underwater Preserve extends along the Lake Michigan shoreline from approximately the Indiana border to just north of Holland, Michigan.

    THE TM 911 Franklin Street Weekly Newspaper Michigan City, IN 46360 Volume 32, Number 32 Thursday, August 18, 2016 Fatal Crossing by William Halliar Northwest Airlines Flight 2501. All historical photos provided by Valerie van Heest. It was a dark and stormy night… So began Valerie van Heest’s intriguing talk at New Buffalo Public Li- brary. The author wove a story of tragedy, loss and enduring grief, one mixed with a message of hope and the connection of lives lived out to- gether on this earth. “Life is precious, as this story reminds; enjoy every minute,” she has written. Thus, her story mixed mystery with high adventure on and be- neath Lake Michigan’s stormy waters. Van Heest is the award-winning author of six books about shipwrecks and Lake Michigan’s maritime history. She is the Michigan Shipwreck Re- search Association director, an accomplished Great Lakes diver, shipwrecks hunter, fi lmmaker and lecturer. Her story, so skillfully told at the library, began on that dark and stormy night on June 23, 1950, a date not so long ago, yet the events and tragedy that ensued, so near the shores of Washington Park beach, are all but forgotten by most today. Valerie van Heest holds a copy of her book. It is the story of the early days of commercial passenger airlines and the Photo by William Halliar disappearance of Northwest Airlines Flight 2501, and the mysterious loss of all on board in the waters of southern Lake Michigan.
