Lattie Coor: Arizona Historymaker 2014, Education Leader and A.S.U. President
“Historymakers” are Arizonans who have made lasting contributions to Arizona by distinguishing themselves in diverse areas, including education, business, public service, sports, architecture and the arts. Honorees are highly diverse, and yet they share a common thread –– they’re all dedicated to making substantial, positive impacts on the state and their surrounding communities.
Through biographies, portraits, oral histories, photos and memorabilia, the Historymakers’ life stories are archived and exhibited at the Arizona Heritage Center at Papago Park in Tempe, which is part of the Arizona Historical Society. Past honorees include Sandra Day O’Connor, Bil Keane, Eddie Basha, Senator Jon Kyl, Dr. Robert Spetzler and many others.
The Historical League has been honoring the state’s Historymakers and hosting its biannual event since 1992 with the purpose of:
-Raising funds for education, exhibits, and other programs that assist the Arizona Heritage Center in Papago Park;
-Contributing to the museum’s artifact, oral history and photograph collections;
-Increasing public awareness of the 80,000-square-foot history museum; and
-Recognizing and honoring outstanding living Arizonans and celebrating Arizona’s Statehood Day, Feb. 14, 1912.

The Story of Modern Water in the Valley | Leah Harrison
Pueblo Grande Museum pays homage to the incredible prehistoric canal irrigation system upon which Phoenix was built with a free lunch time lecture series, Water Works: Settling the Salt River Valley, . Commemorating the 150-year anniversary of Swilling's Ditch and the engineering legacy of canals left by the Hohokam. Discover how the ancient waterways of the past led to the modern water systems of today, and what lessons we can learn for the future.
Explore the history of the Phoenix area's modern water delivery system, starting with the Hohokam and moving through to the present day. Hear the stories of the innovative and collaborative spirit of early canal companies, community efforts to organize the Salt River Valley Water Users' Association, and the engineering and construction of SRP's water storage dams that supply the valley's canals. Changes in water management in response to the valley's transition from an agricultural community to a more urban center after World War II will also be covered, concluding with a conversation about current opportunities to interact with and celebrate the valley's historic dams and canals.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Sandra Day O'Connor (born March 26, 1930) is a retired Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, who served from her appointment in 1981 by Ronald Reagan until her retirement in 2006. She was the first woman to serve on the Court.Prior to O'Connor's tenure on the Court, she was an elected official and judge in Arizona serving as the first female Majority Leader of a state senate as the Republican leader in the Arizona Senate. Upon her nomination to the Court, O'Connor was confirmed unanimously by the Senate. On July 1, 2005, she announced her intention to retire effective upon the confirmation of a successor. Samuel Alito was nominated to take her seat in October 2005, and joined the Court on January 31, 2006.
Considered a federalist and a moderate Republican, O'Connor tended to approach each case narrowly without arguing for sweeping precedents. She most frequently sided with the Court's conservative bloc, although in the latter years of her tenure, she was regarded as having the swing opinion in many cases. She often wrote concurring opinions that limited the reach of the majority holding. Her majority opinions in landmark cases include Grutter v. Bollinger and Hamdi v. Rumsfeld. She also wrote in part the per curiam majority opinion in Bush v. Gore, and was one of three co-authors of the lead opinion in Planned Parenthood v. Casey.
From 2005 to 2012, O'Connor was Chancellor of The College of William & Mary in Williamsburg. Several publications have named her among the most powerful women in the world. On August 12, 2009, she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor of the United States, by President Barack Obama.
