rested his tiny cooler and clipboard on the beach sand walked past a small company of shore birds the environmental specialist opened a plastic baggie and scooped up a few ounces of ocean water This beachside ritual occurs every other week and is a matter of public safety the Florida Department of Health has patrolled the Volusia County coastline to gather water samples — 13 stops between Oak Hill and Ormond-By-the-Sea Sulzbach will know if the water where locals and tourists come to fish sunbathe and frolic contain higher than normal levels of bacteria He begin in the south end of the county in the morning Another health department employee starts collecting samples to the north in Ormond Beach They meet after about two hours at a midpoint stop near the beach approach on Dunlawton Avenue Checking the water quality wasn’t always so precise the cleanliness of the beach water would have been anyone’s guess It was an open question in many Florida counties until the late 1990s Public health critics decried the state’s lack of established rules officials would preemptively close beaches after heavy rainfall and sewage overflow testing was done about once every month before state lawmakers passed a law in 2000 that mandated the current testing schedule “At that point we always just sort of assumed we had pretty decent beach water quality but we never had any data on it so we decided on our own to do it and then shortly thereafter the state came out with a pilot program (in 1998),” said Chip Scheble an environmental manager at the local health department “We thought it would be good to have some real data on it instead of assuming the water quality was good.” Most Florida counties are connected to the beach but their geographies vary Sewage and rivers carrying chemicals are frequently the sources of quality issues Scheble said they expected the same in Volusia County where the Halifax River pours into the ocean officials thought there would be higher levels of bacteria they found another culprit behind seasonally high levels of bacteria: migratory birds They swarm the coast frequently from late fall to early spring “It’s the only correlation that we can make,” Scheble said “since we don’t have any stormwater discharge onto the beach like some cities do.” The scenery doesn’t really change much up and down Volusia County's coast “Ponce Inlet changes the tiniest bit because there’s not a lot of cars and not a lot of people.” During summer months the water is cleaner when compared to the rest of the year the health department dutifully returns every other week with its checklist Sulzbach notes everything on his clipboard: the location He places the tiny pouch of ocean water on ice and drives off to the next stop Aditya Kunjapur, an assistant professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Delaware, has been named to the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security’s Emerging Leaders in Biosecurity Initiative fellowship program in 2019 Kunjapur joins 30 people from 13 U.S and the United Kingdom who were selected from more than 130 applicants the fellows will attend three multi-day workshops participate in networking opportunities and engage with top experts in domestic and global health security Kunjapur and his peers in the Emerging Leaders in Biosecurity Initiative fellowship program will discuss ways to ensure that emerging technologies are not used in ways that endanger human lives or the planet They contribute a diverse set of expertise including public health Kunjapur brings expertise in synthetic biology a field devoted to making biology easier to engineer “My lab seeks to enable living systems to produce and tolerate the kinds of chemical functional groups and reactions that are often only achieved in non-living environments by chemists,” said Kunjapur, who joined UD in 2019. Many scientists are utilizing microbes for their ability to produce other chemicals, such as fuels and Kunjapur wants to use biological substances as chemical factories or protein factories “I’m very interested in sustainable chemistry using biomanufacturing platforms,” said Kunjapur “If I achieve my dream of being able to put more and more unusual functional groups either on proteins or small molecules it starts to blur the lines between what we think of as chemical and biological and that’s where some of the risks come into play that first got me interested in this biosecurity space.” As the field of synthetic biology advances biology is becoming increasingly democratized Think about the early adopters of computing technology who built computers in their garage This could accelerate the pace of beneficial discoveries but could also contribute problems around biohazards People could exploit the science to make weapons “I think it’s important to have a high-level mindset to think about how technology in your field can present both good things as well as potentially some things of concern for society,” said Kunjapur “Synthetic biology itself presents opportunities and potential risks within biosecurity.” he will incorporate the wisdom he gains as an Emerging Leaders in Biosecurity Initiative fellow where he can learn from fellow experts such as Wilfred Chen Gore Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering; Terry Papoutsakis Unidel Eugene du Pont Chair of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering; Maciek Antoniewicz Centennial Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering; and Kelvin Lee Gore Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering  He also looks forward to working with UD students “The students who joined my lab consistently impress me with their motivation and way of thinking about their projects,” said Kunjapur our success is largely dependent upon our students and their high quality here at Delaware inspires confidence that we will reach our highest heights together.” Article by Michele Walfred and Katie Peikes See More Stories Contact us at ocm@udel.edu Contact us at 302-831-NEWS or visit the Media Relations website Hunting for a restaurant when your belly is rumbling is generally not conducive to success but my fortunate find of Pizzeria Antonio in Sulzbach-Rosenberg It appears to be an apartment building nestled into the back of a soccer venue conceals a treasure trove of Bavarian goodness The cozy atmosphere made me feel as if I had stumbled into a German household that just happened to be serving pizza But after the initial surprise of my request of a table for one Unlike the case with most restaurants in Europe I did not have to jump around and wave my hands in the air to get the waiter’s attention I went with something that I knew Germany does not mess up: beer The delicious Pils from local brewery Sperber Brau proved my beverage intuition correct Although the menu was replete with dishes ranging from pasta to calamari I would have been remiss if I’d gone to a pizzeria and didn’t order pizza I needed to get a baseline and then progress to a specialty pizza to give an accurate assessment This led to an interesting encounter with the waitress after the language barrier left her wondering whether that silly American had really just ordered two 12-inch pizzas for himself After an English-speaking waitress clarified that I did in fact want two whole pizzas my original server brought out a Margherita pizza salami and pepperoni with an egg cooked on the middle This is not the first time I have been fooled by what the Germans call a Margherita pizza which in their interpretation is just a normal cheese pizza it was adequate but lacked a little in the sauce department I like my eggs scrambled with a side of bacon or oozing out of my burger; I was unsure how I’d react to one on my pizza it added a pleasant element to an already delicious ensemble I decided to round out my date with myself by ordering dessert which resembled tiramisu but was served with a chocolate drizzle and apple slices because I was figuring it would be in the 40 euro range the tab for this hunger-busting bounty was only 24 euros Pizzeria Antonio serves up some of the best pies in Bavaria Factor in the reasonable prices and the friendly and helpful waitstaff Just be sure to have cash handy for the bill A former Sitka resident who was denied millions in civil damages when a decoration fell on her head in Harrigan Centennial Hall has taken her claims to the Alaska Supreme Court James Patton was leaning over a sink at a fitness center when he was shocked by an electrical outlet that had been installed during the center’s expansion an employer isn’t responsible for the “torts” of its independent contractors it was found that the land owner was “vicariously liable” for the injury that occurred on their property.  you have a duty to make sure it’s safe,” Choate said “Between an innocent possessor of land and an innocent third party injured because of the negligence of the possessor’s independent contractor the possessor should bear any loss because the possessor is in a better position to know what risk of injury exists and to take steps to guard against them.” Choate said this exception applied to the city and John Ferrick the independent contractor in the suit who installed the decorative fixture that fell on Sulzbach– Ferrick was also not found negligent by the Sitka jury But Ferrick wasn’t a paid independent contractor for the city – he was volunteering for the Alaska Day Committee And that’s why attorney Timothy Bowman argued that the direction of the suit was misplaced.  the city had no role in selecting the decoration The decoration itself was not owned by the city And he never consulted with the city regarding his method of hanging,” Bowman said “The city didn’t know or have reason to know how he had planned to hang the decorations in the first place.”  Bowman said the only input the city had was on where to attach the decorations in the new building.  Ferrick was working for the Alaska Day Committee the appellants declined to add them as a party in this case,” said Bowman “Therefore to the extent that they complain that they’ve been deprived of an avenue of redress they have nobody to blame but themselves.”  especially government owned public facilities should be safe,” Choate said “And when you come into them as a third party just as I assume today and all of us assume that nothing is going to hit us in the head.” A decision from the Alaska Supreme

gives talk at Liberty Starting out as a New York City school principal isn’t a shabby proving ground for a future FBI agent At least that was the case for retired FBI special agent Ed Sulzbach who patrolled the school hallways before making his way to the streets as a trained FBI agent in 1972 He worked undercover with a notorious biker gang performed psychological profiling and was awarded one of the FBI’s first medals of valor for saving a colleague’s life when a drug investigation turned into a shooting spree in the mid-1970s Liberty University welcomed Sulzbach as a guest speaker in the Arthur S With 24 years of FBI experience under his belt Sulzbach told students stories that were heroic and heartbreaking “It’s a unique kind of family,” Sulzbach said of the FBI most work environments have a “jerk quotient” — but the FBI’s quotient was very low He recalled many wonderful memories with the Bureau but he said being a psychological profiler was the most painful part of his experience “Some of those crime scenes live with me to these days You become haunted by those ghosts,” he said he was comforted by the fact that he could help bring criminals who performed horrible acts such as pedophilia he had to seem like he sympathized with them FBI agents are working abroad in Iraq and Afghanistan and he doesn’t know what their duties fully entail He still watches some FBI and crime shows on television — and the one he thinks is most accurate is “Criminal Minds.” Sulzbach’s speech drew 108 students.

Aloha Council Scout executive and CEO Jeff Sulzbach is joined by Gregory Gruenthal of Pack 166 Faith Gruenthal of Pack 166 and Scout Cash Steele of Pack 1 at a recent outing for the young Scouts It’s a fresh start for the century-old organization known as Boy Scouts of America which now allows girls to participate in its flagship Scouting programs Boy Scouts of America announced late last year that its board of directors unanimously voted to welcome girls into its flagship Scouting programs but given that girls have been involved in BSA’s Exploring and Sea Scouts affiliates since 1969 to hear Aloha Council Scout executive and CEO Jeff Sulzbach tell it “Having girls in the Boy Scouts of America is actually not a new thing,” Sulzbach adds is the inclusion of girls in Cub Scouts (kindergarten to age 10) and Scouts BSA (formerly known as Boy Scouts Aloha Council introduced a Cub Scout pilot program for girls from January to June with the official start slated for the new school year that neither Cub Scout dens nor Scouts BSA troops existing Cub Scout packs can choose to start a new girl pack or create a pack that has girl and boy dens girls will be able to progress alongside their boy counterparts and even have a chance to eventually earn Scouting’s highest ranking of Eagle Scout activities and curriculum will remain the same across the board and boys and girls will have to achieve the same goals to move up the ranks Cub Scouts Faith Gruenthal and Cash Steele Aloha Council Scout executive and CEO Jeff Sulzbach and Cub Scouts Harper Steele and Gregory Gruenthal roast marshmallows showed overwhelmingly positive experiences which solidified the notion that this was a logical route for BSA to take there was a lot of pressure from families to have the Scouting programs available to both their daughters and their sons,” he says “What we experienced in our communities is that sisters would frequently participate with their brothers especially at the Cub Scouts level,” he adds “They come along to meetings and participate.” Harper Steele’s induction to twin brother Cash’s Cub Scout Den 7 was par for the course “I just started bringing Harper along to Cub Scout meetings she started to integrate with the others and started to flow into the activities,” Simpson Steele recalls “The den leader at the time included her in everything they did.” she enjoys being able to do the things her brother does she’s earned eight belt loops and three patches and hopes to earn even more in the near future “That was a big change,” adds Simpson Steele but only the boys would get acknowledgment.” “She’s been asking if she could be a Cub Scout since she was 3,” says mom Amanda Gruenthal went to his Cub Scout meetings and loved everything about them learning archery and playing gaga ball (similar to dodge-ball) Aloha Council inducted 202 new Eagle Scouts felt like a natural next step for the Gruenthal family “She’s made a car for the pinewood derby for the past two years and it’s really great to know that this will be an official pinewood derby for her this year,” says Amanda Sulzbach is proud that all of Scouting’s programs now serve both genders — from kindergarten to early adulthood — and says that change falls in line with the organization’s main goal to develop character and foster the growth of the whole person awards and accolades showcase a child’s advancement in technical skills and knowledge but a bigger part of Scouting is its focus on giving back “It helps reinforce that it’s not always about us given the ‘me’ generation we live in,” Sulzbach says “It helps to reorient Scouts that it’s about helping other people and being a citizen in our community Aloha Council Scouts and leaders donated more than 100,000 community service hours last year “I think people get hung up on the name change but that’s not the most important thing,” he continues “What’s really important is what we’re continuing to do which is help young people develop character and it’s an opportunity to serve more young people and to be more responsive to what our families are saying.” Next for the organization is its Scouts BSA rollout in 2019 One of the things the organization will be working on over the next six months is forming girl troops and coordinating to have them become chartered by sponsor organizations “When girls are allowed to join Scouts BSA in February we’ve got at least one girl troop identified at every major community around the island,” says Sulzbach For more information or to find out how to volunteer, visit

ECE Marketplaces - together with the builders the mayor of Sulzbach and the tenant partners - celebrated the topping out ceremony for the new "Food Garden" in the Main-Taunus-Zentrum in Sulzbach near Frankfurt am Main The implementation of the new gastronomic offer in one of the largest highest-turnover and most successful shopping centers in Germany for decades is thus progressing rapidly In the middle of the open-air shopping center in Sulzbach near Frankfurt am Main varied range of restaurants with five free-standing restaurant buildings with partly covered and partly open terraces attractive green outdoor areas and sophisticated architecture The new buildings are also being constructed with a special focus on sustainability and are being built entirely from wood The "Food Garden" is already fully let more than a year before it opens: Well-known concepts such as the restaurant concept "Alex" the pizza and pasta concept "L'Osteria" and the steakhouse concept "The Ash" have profited as new anchor tenants in the gastronomy sector Several other well-known regional restaurant concepts complement the high-quality tenant mix including the Frankfurt restaurant concept "MoschMosch" which was developed in the style of the Japanese noodle bar The aim of the strategic further development is to supplement the premium tenant mix with an extensive range of dining options thereby further increasing the quality of stay and dwell time in the Main-Taunus-Zentrum and creating additional incentives for visitors the development of the "Food Garden" is a good example of the flexibility and adaptability of shopping centers: the new gastronomy concept is being created on an area of around 9,000 m² and with a total rental space of 4,000 m² in place of a former Karstadt department store which was closed in 2020 and subsequently demolished and is now being replaced by a new usage concept adapted to the needs of the center and its customers as well as to the structural changes in the retail sector Deutsche EuroShop and a closed-end Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) are investing around 28 million euros in the Project as owners which is also responsible for the operation and leasing of the center is in charge of planning and implementation presse(at)ece.com um diesen Inhalt mit «Gefällt mir» zu markieren Es können nur einzelne Videos der jeweiligen
