Volunteers needed to assist with eCYBERMISSION

Volunteers needed to assist with eCYBERMISSION

WASHINGTON (Army News Service, Aug. 27, 2004) – eCYBERMISSION, the Army-sponsored science, math and technology competition for youth, needs volunteers to serve as cyberguides, ambassadors and installation points of contact for this year’s competition.

Volunteers are generally Army personnel who must have an active security clearance. While applications are accepted year-round, Soldiers and civilians interested are encouraged to apply now through early September.

The program’s mission is to generate interest among youth in science, math and technology and to communicate how important these areas are to the future success of our nation, said Kelly Stratchko, eCYBERMISSION program manager.

Teams of three to four students, in grades six through nine, compete for monetary prizes and the opportunity for national recognition. Teams design projects that incorporate science, math and technology in the areas of health and safety, the environment, sports and recreation, and arts and entertainment.

The program started two years ago and has grown from 903 teams competing during the first year to 1,624 teams this past spring. Officials estimate that the amount of teams competing this year may exceed 2,000. Anywhere from 400 to 600 volunteers will be needed.

Volunteers serving as ambassadors visit community groups within their regions to explain the program’s key messages to educators while encouraging students to participate. Cyberguides are scientists and engineers who serve as online mentors to provide guidance, support and answers to students’ questions. Personnel who volunteer as installation points of contact will be the main channels of communication from the program’s headquarters to the ambassadors and cyberguides located at the installations.

This program is so important because our nation is no longer at the top in science, math and technology fields, said Karin Santos, who has been an eCYBERMISSION ambassador and installation point of contact at Fort McPherson, Ga. since the program’s beginning. We need to support the community in these fields, she said.

Once an applicant is accepted as a volunteer, he or she receives continuous e-mail notifications about the program. Cyberguides are needed for four hours per week while ambassadors are needed for 15 to 20 hours per month. There is no standard time commitment for installation points of contact.

To learn more about the program and to register as a volunteer, visit www.ecybermission.com.

Spider-Man 2 - Movie Review

Spider-Man 2 - Movie Review

I believe there's a hero in all of us.

"I believe there's a hero in all of us. Gives us strength, makes us noble. Even though sometimes, we have to give up the thing we want the most."


There's an early scene in Spider-Man 2 that plays over B.J. Thomas and Burt Bacharach's theme song to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. This moment marks a turning point in Peter Parker's (Tobey Maguire) life. As the song suggests, no longer would he regret that he couldn't save the world from crime, excel in school, hold down a job, save his Aunt May's house from foreclosure and get the girl to boot. He realizes that sometimes heroes must give up the things they love the most.

But more importantly, this moment marks a turning point in Spider-Man 2.

The growth of Native arts and crafts
Southeast Sagas

By Ann Chandonnet
for the juneau empire

Missionaries and educators in Alaska in the 19th and 20th centuries were not always open to Native arts and crafts, associating them with superstition or "pagan ritual."

If it had not been for encouragement by organizations like the Alaska Arts and Crafts Cooperative, the Alaska Historical Totem Society, and Alaska Indian Arts, much might have been lost forever.

Take, for example, drawing. From time immemorial, Eskimos have drawn in sand and snow and engraved and inlaid baleen, wood, walrus ivory and bone. When Boston whalers ventured into the Bering Sea in the 1840s, trade in scrimshawed ivory picked up, and commercial inks were introduced to Native artists.
