The INMARSAT satellite system is used by ships, news services, relief agencies, armed forces, business personnel - the list goes on and on. Some of these are scrambled communi- inmarsat 4 Ocean Region Coverage cations, but by no means all. Let us introduce you to the fascinat- ing world of satellite communications. Scanning the Garden State Parkway 14 By Bob Kozlarek This may seem like a mundane target, but that's what most two - way communications involve - the daily routines that coordinate our modern life. The Garden State Parkway is certainly one of the most heavily -traveled highways in the country, and Bob Kozlarek expected sophisticated radio equipment to be used to keep it running smoothly. Not entirely so, he discovered, on a surprise peek inside. The Dominican Scene on SW 18 By Adrian Peterson Several shortwave stations have come and gone from this Caribbean island nation, and they are still in a state of flux. One reliable shortwave broadcaster is gone for good, but others are gearing up to take its place. With an average power rating of 1 kW and irregular schedules, catching one like Radio Amanacer - whose antenna is shown in the photo -is a challenge. ON THE COVER: This impressive antenna array is only one -third of the spread on Sandia Crest just north of Albuquerque, New Mexico.

  • Graham Oaks Audio Tour
    November 17, 2010 1. Gateway Plaza, in the parking /restroom/picnic shelter area Welcome to Graham Oaks Nature Park! Graham Oaks is one of many natural areas acquired by Metro and its partners, thanks to residents of Washington, Clackamas and Multnomah counties who voted in 1995 for an Open Spaces, Parks, and Streams bond measure. The money was used to acquire landscapes and ecosystems that are vital to our region. A second bond measure passed by voters in 2006 directed Metro to safeguard water quality, protect fish and wildlife habitat and ensure access to nature for future generations. Some areas protected by voters and Metro are restored to their natural state; other sites, like Graham Oaks here in Wilsonville or Cooper Mountain in Beaverton, are developed into parklands or trails that get people out of their cars, on to their bikes or into their walking shoes. Walking and biking are great for your health, your wallet and the planet. Find resources, routes and safety tips at www.oregonmetro.gov. There, you can download any of the 50 treks from Metro's popular Walk There! guidebook and learn more about Metro’s Bike There! map. Metro thanks the City of Wilsonville, Oregon State Parks and Recreation, Clackamas County, and the West Linn-Wilsonville School District in planning and developing Graham Oaks. You can learn more about Graham Oaks and Metro’s other natural areas by visiting www.oregonmetro.gov/grahamoaks. First, some vital trip information: entrance to Graham Oaks is free; and the park is open from 6:30 a.m.

Accordingly, social work education has begun to incorporate the topic of spirituality. This study builds upon previous studies by Dudley and Helfgott (1990) and Sheridan et al. (1994) which focused on views of faculty members regarding spirituality in social work education and support for a course on spirituality in the social work curriculum.
