Although lavendercolored varieties prevail, pink, burgundy, white, and creamy yellows in both single and double flowers are also available.

The Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore, also known as the Duomo, is in the heart of Florence, Italy, the home of Italian Renaissance art, style, and architecture. This vast Gothic structure was begun at the end of the 13th century, but the façade, a Neo-Gothic structure, was not completed until the 19th century. It gracefully blends the hundreds of years it took to complete the Duomo. The façade’s red, white, and green color scheme celebrates the then-new Italian flag. The finely detailed doors are made of bronze and depict the life of the Madonna.

A Doorway Every Day Milton Berle once said, “If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door.” Doors have long been a way to create character, add style, and inspire interest in what lies beyond. Often, the more weathered the doorway, the more curiosity takes hold of the knob to discover where it may lead. Opportunities abound in this wall calendar that features a photo on each box within the monthly grids and space to write appointments and notes.

DILBERT™

Dilber t ™

f you work in anything that resembles an office, chances are you have coworkers who resemble Dilbert’s. Maybe your boss doesn’t have pointy hair, but he (or she) probably more than once has used meaningless business speak to cover a lack of knowledge—and fooled exactly no one. A guy in the next cubicle probably shows up each day just for the free coffee, and another probably works like a crazy-woman hoping for a little recognition. Dilbert creator Scott Adams includes them all. Any resemblance to your actual coworkers is intentional (and hilarious).

• More than 12.5 million Dilbert calendars have been sold. • Syndicated since 1989, Dilbert appears in 2,000 newspapers in 70 countries. • Dilbert is the most widely read syndicated comic on the Internet.

Welcome Home “ It is sunset, the dramatic end to a long day. The radiant cottage seems to summon the weary traveler with the message: Welcome Home. Here, in this deceptively simple canvas, is an image of the prodigal son—the outcast who finds a welcome in his Father’s house. That great Bible story, with its message of love and redemption, inspires my heart repeatedly.

TIMELESS STORIES WALL

Rachel, Brittany, Tara and Georgia (1998) The four babies featured are actually two sets of twins. They were around four months of age, not yet sitting on their own, but small enough to be of similar size to the real dolls. Their beautiful outfits were especially made at the studio to blend with the antique clothing the dolls were wearing. The faces of the babies seem to mirror the expressions of some of the dolls. When the image was published the following year, I received a lovely letter from a very excited woman in Australia who said that she recognized one of the dolls as her childhood favorite which had long since been lost. She was absolutely certain that the doll was hers and was so relieved to see it again that I sent it to her as a gift.

ELLEN STOUFFER & SHERRI BUCK BALDWIN

Thirtieth anniversary edition

BU CK BAL DWIN

o achieve the amazing depth and realism found in her art, Sherri Buck Baldwin combines both conventional and modern techniques. For the twelve incredible pieces she created especially for this calendar, she used combinations of ink, colored pencil, and watercolor on transparent layers that she placed over opaque collages she produced using hand- and computer-generated designs and paper ephemera, including maps and postcards. The result, thanks also to the precise detailing of each bird and flower, is stunning. • In the U.K., the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds has more than 1 million members.

ROSS

• It is estimated that 40 percent of Australian households and 35 percent of New Zealand households own at least one dog.

ueellen Ross is passionate about depicting animals that are dear to her. That passion shines through in her dog, cat, puppy, and kitten paintings. She starts each one with a detailed graphite drawing, then uses India ink to fill in dark areas, watercolors to add color, and finally colored pencils to achieve texture and depth. The results are incredibly realistic works of art, in which pet lovers see the hearts and souls of their own dear companions.

• 23 percent of households in Australia own a cat and a staggering 50 percent of New Zealand households have a feline companion.

DAN DiPAOLO

t’s easy to see what keeps Dan DiPaolo down on the farm. That’s where he grows perennials and fresh produce to sell at the nearby farmers market. Most importantly, it’s home to his studio and where he gets much of the inspiration for his designs. Between creating artwork ranging from sassy women who love their wine to décor-worthy coffee art to cut-paper inspiration and managing and working a farm that includes chickens, tomatoes, and corn, Dan’s a busy guy and has the range of products—and fresh eggs—to prove it. • Besides its use on calendars, Dan’s art is hugely popular on stationery items, posters, prints, coasters, napkins, rugs, fabrics, kitchenware, and home décor from more than a dozen licensees.

Ah, the joys of owning a pooch: wagging tails, exuberant welcomes, unconditional love. Of course, they also poop on our beds, eat the remote control, and hump our guests’ legs. Dogshaming.com lets owners confess their dogs’ biggest (and often grossest) sins and provide cute photographic proof. The result is what FunnyorDie.com calls “hilarious” and people.com dubs “an online sensation.” Loaded with real-life photos of adorable, albeit shamed, dogs and hilarious commentary detailing just why they’re in the doghouse, this calendar is a funny reminder that unconditional love goes both ways.

AW KWAR D FA MILY PHO TOS

t’s bad enough having to experience awkward and uncomfortable family moments but when these moments are caught on film, it’s even worse. Lucky for us, these calendars feature the best of the best when it comes to embarrassing family photos— siblings in goofy poses, grandparents in matching outfits, parents with outrageous hair, and spouses in weird settings. Whatever the situation, these photos will cause you to gasp, cringe, and laugh out loud all at the same time.

• The first two books, Awkward Family Photos and Awkward Family Pet Photos sold over 500,000 copies. • The third book, Awkward Family Holidays, was released in 2013 and the newest book, Awkward Baby Photos, will be released in 2015. • The AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com Web site attracts over 15 million viewers each month, has nearly 350,000 Facebook fans and over 33,000 Twitter followers.

Day-to-Day Each day features a full-color, awkward photo that is cringe-worthy, yet hilarious.

What is a cat? A dog? This Garfield calendar explains it clearly and comically. Each monthly spread features a Daffy Definition along with some colorful art that drives the point home. And for the record, a cat is nature’s most perfect pet, while a dog is a brainless, four-legged flea magnet whose breath could stun a moose.

CLOSE TO HOME

John McPherson’s sense of humor is unlike any other. The same can be said of his hugely popular cartoon panel, Close to Home. From the baseball team who gets pummeled with baseball-sized hail during a game, to the man who wears body wipers on sweltering days, to the dentist who uses drones because he doesn’t like his hands to get icky, John’s odd-looking characters set in zany situations help make this calendar one of a kind.

GET FUZZY® Politics may make strange bedfellows, but it’s nothing compared to the Wilco household. Here, three very different personalities—not to mention species—occupy the same amusing comic strip. Resident human Rob does his best to control his exasperation, sweet but slightly slow Satchel Pooch just tries to keep up, and the unpredictable Bucky Katt deludes himself and annoys the others. Together, they make the strip and this calendar strangely hilarious.

DAY-TO-DAY

Classic Dave Barry If you do much driving, you’ve probably noticed that, more and more often, bullets are coming through your windshield. This is a common sign of Road Rage, which the opinion makers in the news media have decided is a serious problem, currently ranking just behind global warming and several points ahead of Asia. How widespread is Road Rage? To answer that question, researchers for the National Institute of Traffic Safety recently did a study in which they drove on the interstate highway system in a specially equipped observation van. By the third day, they were deliberately running other motorists off the road. “These people are morons!” was their official report.

Classic Dave Barry The most famous novelist of this era was Cliff, the author of the famous CliffsNotes, a series of works that are still immensely popular with high-school students. The best known, of course, is The Scarlet Ladder, which tells the story of a short man named Miles Standish, who lived in a tall house with seven people named Gable, only to be killed in a sled crash with an enormous white whale. This was to become a recurring theme in colonial literature.

• Carry a grudge and you’re the one who gets the hernia. • To be noticed, do something amazing. • Remember, a three-week vacation is about seven days too long. • Be proud of your days and you’ll be content with your years.

When you “don’t sweat the small stuff,” your life won’t be perfect, but you will learn to accept what life has to offer with far less resistance. As we learn in the Zen philosophy, when you learn to “let go” of problems instead of resisting with all your might, your life will begin to flow.

We all know that life can be extremely difficult and tiring. Most of us take it as a given that we must deal with hassles each and every day. The questions are, Does sharing all the gloomy details do any good? Does it have true value? A vast majority of the time, sharing negativity is counterproductive at best and an interference to a quality, relaxing evening.

The Gracious Hand of God A recent You wouldn’t be where you are if the gracious hand of God was not on your life. Every accomplishment, every good break, every obstacle you’ve overcome was God opening the door, God bringing the right people, God turning it around. For by their own sword they did not possess the land and their own arm did not save them, but Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence, for You favored them.

—Psalm 44:3 NAS

Insight from the

Dalai Lama My message is the practice of compassion, love, and kindness. Compassion can be put into practice if one recognizes the fact that every human being is a member of humanity and the human family regardless of differences in religion, culture, color, and creed. Deep down there is no difference.

Insight from the

Dalai Lama Human happiness and human satisfaction must ultimately come from within oneself. It is wrong to expect some final satisfaction to come from money or from a computer.

The planets are meeting up in the part of your chart governing your aspirations, and their message is, “What are you waiting for?!” Cancer HHHk$ You can do justice to your public, social, and career ambitions without compromising your personal requirements.

Bacon L❤VE!

Killer Bacon Cheese Hot Dogs On an outdoor grill, cook 8 all-beef hot dogs until browned, 5 to 8 minutes, turning once or until done to suit your taste. Lightly grill 8 hot dog buns. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook 8 slices of bacon over medium-high heat until evenly browned. Drain on paper towels. To assemble sandwiches, place a slice of Swiss cheese and strip of bacon on each bun. Add a hot dog and top each with 1 Tbsp. barbeque sauce, or desired amount, and diced red onion to taste.

Bill Kroen’s

Golf Tip-A-DAy

Play smart. You can save several shots per round by thinking better as you play. Concentrate on getting your tee shot on the fairway, even if it means putting your driver away. When you land in trouble, get your ball back into play instead of taking a risky shot. Play away from water hazards and out of bounds rather than challenging them. If a pin is close to you when you have a pitch shot, get your ball on to the green rather than trying to hit a difficult shot to get it close to the hole. Making a bogey is often a good score to make.

Golf Tip-A-DAy

Put it in neutral. How you grip the club plays a major role in how the clubface approaches the ball. A strong grip––one that has the hands rolled toward the right or under the handle––will shut the face and cause a hook. A weak grip, or one that has the hands turned to the left, will cause a slice or fade. To simplify your grip, try to have the V’s created by your hands and thumbs pointing toward your right cheek. Starting with this neutral grip will allow the club to return to square at impact rather than having you make some swing adjustment to compensate for a strong or weak hand position. It may take a little time to get used to the neutral grip but your shots will soon fly straighter than ever before.

Amazing But True Golf Facts

On this day in 2012, four western Pennsylvania golfers set a Guinness World Record for marathon golf when they played 144 holes—eight 18-hole rounds—on eight different courses measuring at least 6,000 yards each. The golfers—Shawn Carr, Ryan Lombardo, Shane Eichenlaub, and Pat Kern—started at 5:20 a.m. Rules stipulated the players couldn’t tee off simultaneously, had to play in turn, and putt out in order. Each player had his own cart, and each host course granted them right-of-way. Each round took about 90 minutes, and the day didn’t end until 9:15 p.m., 16 hours and 2,618 shots later.

This calendar hits the sweet spot once again. Each page of the 26th edition features a noteworthy event from golf’s fascinating history, an amusing quote from one of the game’s greats, or an account of a tight spot that even the most seasoned professional can get in. True story: On the final round of the 2013 Arnold Palmer Invitational, Sergio Garcia’s ball landed in the fork of a tree. So he climbed the tree and took a one-handed, backward swing. The ball landed in the fairway!

The Dumbest Things Ever Said or Done The Business of sTupidiTy After her father died in 2011, a woman in Stockport, England, kept receiving letters from the Royal Bank of Scotland claiming that her father owed the bank $9.17. She sent in a copy of her father’s death certificate, but bank officials wouldn’t accept that as proof that he was actually dead. For two years they kept dunning her, with interest on the debt raising it to $955.31, according to bank officials. Finally, she figured out how to prove that her father was dead. “I took my dad to the bank and slapped his ashes on the counter,” she said. “I’m sick of getting hassled.”

An Insult-A-Day

Mankind has been firing off insults to one another since the dawn of time, and this calendar is a collection of some real zingers from celebrities, politicians, athletes, and even philosophers. Woody Allen once said, “The only time my wife and I had a simultaneous orgasm was when the judge signed the divorce papers.” And comedian Greg Giraldo said to David Hasselhoff, “You’re such a drunk. When alcohol does its taxes, it lists you as a dependent.” Whether shocking, offensive, or just downright funny, these insults guarantee that the speaker gets the last word.

Penguins Hate Stuff

9 781449 453886

Penguins hate zombies. They also hate serpents, bad haircuts, sock monkeys, leprechauns, Halloween, and mermaids. They really hate clowns, but they really like capes, balloons, and free vacations. This quirky collection reveals the discriminating tastes of these adorable flightless Antarctic birds who encounter odd foes but still manage to enjoy the little things in life. With wit, humor, and the occasional alien invasion, Greg Stones’s paintings capture the playfully absurd life of penguins. • Penguins Hate Stuff is a follow-up collection to Greg Stones’s popular first book, Zombies Hate Stuff. • Greg Stones shows his watercolor paintings in art galleries and at art festivals across the U.S. • This calendar has a spiral binding and is printed on uncoated stock.

T-Rex Trying It’s not easy being a T-Rex. He’s known as the most terrifying predator of the dinosaur species, but it’s hard to be intimidated by a Terrible Lizard that can’t even change a light bulb. Drawn from creator Hugh Murphy’s wildly popular Tumblr feed of the same name, the T-Rex Trying 2015 Calendar depicts the stubby-armed tyrant in a range of hilarious—yet pathos-inducing— activities that we humans take for granted. Looks like the ancient beast isn’t so tough after all. • T-Rex Trying started as a Tumblr page created by Murphy, and the brand has now expanded with a book, apparel, mugs, and other merchandise.

WuMo Comic writer Mikael Wulff and illustrator Anders Morgenthaler celebrate life’s absurdities and bittersweet ironies in their hilarious one-panel comic strip. Named WuMo, a combination of the pair’s last names, the wildly irreverent comic has grown from an underground sensation eight years ago to one of the biggest and most popular strips in Europe. It’s now syndicated in hundreds of newspapers in the United States, as well as in the Japan Times, Metro (London), and Linus magazine in Italy. Each spread of this calendar features two colorful WuMo comic strips.

• More than 150 newspapers picked up WuMo before it even launched on November 4, 2013, making it the most successful syndication launch in Universal Uclick’s history. • Wulff and Morgenthaler developed and run Scandinavia’s biggest comedy Web site, Kind of Normal, which attracts 200,000 daily users, a significant number for a region with a total population of 15 million. • The pair also created the animated sitcom, The Pandas, in the same vein as South Park and The Family Guy. The first three seasons have been wildly popular in Denmark, and the pair is in negotiations to bring the show to North America.

He surprises the unsuspecting in this 2015 wall calendar, in which he appears in such places as an English abbey, Easter Island, and a movie theater. Dressed always in his signature super short (short!) shorts, he serves as an ambASSador of cringe-inducing fashion choices, letting it all (and there’s a LOT of it) hang out. All cracks aside, this cheeky vagabond dares you not to look as he elicits shocked responses wherever he goes.

Wild Bird Woodcuts Artist Lisa Brawn hails from Calgary, Canada, where she recently acquired five truckloads of century-old Douglas fir beams salvaged from restoration projects. The holey, knotty, and gouged wood is amazingly transformed into “graphic, eyeball-pleasing wooden marvels,” as one gallery owner described Lisa’s woodcuts. Each full-color spread of this calendar features a marvelous woodcut from the artist’s Wild Bird series.

Man v. Liver

A clever cocktail of upscale culture and manliness, the Man v. Liver 2015 Calendar features twelve months of witty musings accompanied by a roughly sketched, style-conscious bachelor who’s never short on quips aimed at fellow party guests, dates, and, of course, his beloved liver. This calendar is a toast to that blurry struggle between pleasure and … hangover. Oh, well. Out of glass, out of mind.

Quiet, please. Hangover in progress.

The National Drink of Brazil is Caipirinha (we can’t pronounce it, either).

keep it shrimple, stupid New York illustrator and graphic designer David Olenick shares his whimsical view of human behavior in his ingenious, fractured renderings of puns and character flaws using cute critters, inanimate objects, and acts of nature. Each month features a witty design such as the wine glass gently encouraging you to drunk text; the Loch Ness monster reassuring herself that “the important thing is that I believe in myself”; and the pint of ice cream holding a spoon and whispering, “nobody has to know.” Each monthly spread features one of Olenick’s witty and relatable designs.

This significant tornado tore across the rural landscape of far southeastern Colorado along the Oklahoma border on May 31, 2010. Shortly after the tornado crossed U.S. Highway 287, the sun appeared and front-lit the tornado in an amazing white, providing a stunning contrast against the dark sky of the storm.

F r i Day

s a t u r Day

1853: Although in poor health, Abigail Fillmore, President Millard Fillmore’s wife, was with him during the cold, snowy, outdoor inauguration ceremonies in Washington, DC, for his successor, Franklin Pierce. She developed pneumonia as a consequence and died on March 30.

Purim* 1976 (4th–5th): Disastrous ice storm over SE (except extreme SE) WI left up to 5"-diameter ice on wires/tree limbs. 100s of utility poles snapped; 1,000s of power/telephone lines toppled; many trees destroyed. Some rural areas w/o power for 10+ days. Wind gusts to 60 mph.

2005: An avalanche in the backcountry near CO’s Aspen Highlands Ski Area killed a man who was part of an avalanche awareness class. He fell while skiing across a slope, rolled, and triggered the avalanche, which carried him almost all the way down the mountain side.

1998: Being on a small boat hit by lightning frequently leads to an unsatisfying experience. Although storms had been in the area for several hours, a fishing tournament in AL’s Mobile Bay was not halted. Lightning hit 1 of 2 men fishing from a boat in the bay; he died.

internationaL Women’s Day 2012: Storms are sometimes the bane of historic buildings. Lightning hit a large oak tree in Batesville, AR. The charge traveled into the ground and caused a gas meter to explode—which set the historic Mayflower House on fire. $175,000 damage.

t u e s Day 1999: A cold front with embedded thunderstorms caused winds to 75 mph across parts of NC. A woman was hurt when she was blown off her porch in Prospect; 3 people were hurt in Rennert when a mobile home was overturned. Topsail schools closed on 4th due to downed power lines.

eight hours Day (austraLia—tas) Canberra Day (austraLia—aCt) Labour Day (austraLia—viC) CommonWeaLth Day (austraLia, CanaDa, nZ, uK) 2012: Rare weather for HI. A state record large hailstone fell near Marine Corps Base Hawaii (Kaneohe Station). It measured 4.25" long, 2.25" tall, and 2" wide. An EF0 tornado (came onshore as a waterspout) tracked from Lanikai to Kailua (where several roofs were destroyed).

1938: Bad that a house near Salina, KS, containing a family of 17, was destroyed by an F2 tornado. Also bad that all of the family members were injured. However, good that none died of their injuries.

1959: Meteorological oddity! How warm can it be and still have snow instead of rain? Weather Bureau personnel at San Antonio, TX, observed snowflakes for 35 minutes with a surface air temperature of 50°. The freezing level at the time was at least 6,000' above the surface.

st. PatriCK’s Day 1894: With today’s 80° high at Sioux Falls, SD, (a record for the date, and until 3/7 2000, the earliest 80° reading on record) one might have thought winter was fading. But, -4° record lows on the 25th/26th will show the capriciousness of Great Plains weather.

mothering sunDay (ireLanD, uK) 2012: Not good to be next to an open door/ window during a thunderstorm. Lightning hit a Hartselle, AL, woman as she took storm photos with her cell phone (her arm stretched outside through a doorway). She suffered a seizure, fell to the ground, and was hospitalized overnight.

2012: This March saw Canadian all-time March record-high temperature set from parts of Manitoba eastward. Today’s 85° (33° warmer than its previous date high set in 1969) at Western Head, Nova Scotia, established the province’s all-time hot March temperature.

1913: An F4 tornado devastated parts of Terre Haute, IN. 300 homes were damaged/ destroyed; a 5-block area was totally leveled; 21 deaths. A woman noted the tornado removed bed clothing off her and whisked it away through the fireplace.

1998: No school for what reason? Severe thunderstorms and heavy rains raked SE WI today. At Lakeland College (near Johnson), the campus wastewater treatment buildings were flooded; sewage backup problems ensued. Thus, classes were canceled on the 31st.

19 1976: An F3 tornado (to 1/2-mi wide) hurt 11 along its 20-mi path from near Shivers to near Magee, MS. 2 children (ages 16 months and 3 months) were thrown from a mobile home. 1 landed near a blown over tree; the other was essentially wrapped in a barbed-wire fence.

6 1993: “Storm of the Century” produced blizzard conditions from WC into N GA; gusts to 70 mph for 18 hours. 24–30" snow along GA/NC border; 4–8" in Atlanta. Drifts to 2' WC GA, to 10' GA/NC border. Travel in N GA at standstill for up to 1 wk. 1.3+ million chickens died in N GA.

7 14 2012: An incredible day in MI as 56 sites set daily record highs; 35 were also March records and 6 tied the March records. 85° and 81° at Pellston (64-yr period of record) and Marquette (50-yr period of record) were date records by an amazing 32°; both highs also became March records.

1977: 582 people died in aviation’s worst disaster when 2 B-747’s collided on a runway at Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands. Near zero visibility in fog and mist, delays due to an earlier terrorist event, and language problems between pilots led to the catastrophe.

first quarter

21 1956 (27th–28th): Gusty winds to 80 mph damaged 1.5 million acres in E CO; pilots noted dust to 20,000' above ground. Roads closed E of Limon due to near zero visibility in blowing dust. Schools at Arriba, Bennett, Stratton, and Vona closed due to dust/wind.

1976: An F2 tornado destroyed most of Kilboune, LA (including its new 250,000 gallon water tower); 32 injuries. An eyewitness noted: “It got still as a mouse about 10 minutes before” (the funnel touched down). When it did, “It looked like it just sucked up everything.”

Q: The first part of this famous epic poem tells the tale of the journey of an Italian poet as he descends into the depths of Hell. In the second circle of Hell, he encounters a dark place with torrential rain and an infernal, swirling hurricane that batters the souls of the damned who have committed the sin of lust. The poem likens their torment by uncontrollable weather to their uncontrolled passion. What is the name of the first part of this poem and its author?

A: The Divine Comedy:The Inferno by Dante Alighieri

• The ORIGINAL weather calendar, the Weather Guide celebrates more than 25 years.

12 2012: Amazing how narrow storm damage can be. Thunderstorm wind gusts to 75 mph caused $130,000 damage in a 25-yd-wide by 500-yd-long path in Pampa, TX. Debris from a destroyed 10x10 aluminum shed was carried 400 yards; the front wall of a business blew into an adjacent street.

18 2012: International March heat! 22.8°C (73°F) at Fyvie Castle, Aberdeenshire, set Scotland’s record high March temperature. Only to be broken tomorrow at Cromale, Moray, with 23.2°C (74°F) and again on the 27th at Aboyne, Aberdeenshire, with a reading of 23.6°C (74°F).

• Each day recounts a phenomenal weather event. • Monthly articles explore weather trends and topics in depth.

1986: Near Winfield, AL, an F2 tornado followed part of the same path an F3 tornado had taken 10 minutes earlier. Workers at a dairy farm damaged by the 1st tornado were forced back to shelter as the 2nd tornado approached. Sections of the dairy farm were damaged a 2nd time.

2012: This March becomes the warmest March of record (starting in 1895) for 25 states: AR, CT, GA, IA, IL, IN, KS, KY, MI, MN, MO, MS, NE, NJ, NY, OH, OK, PA, RI, SD, TN, VA, VT, WI, and WV. Only AK, CA, OR, and WA were cooler than normal.

11 1993: Talk about poor timing. The roof of the Arts and Design building at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff was being replaced when heavy rain began. Insulation/circuits were destroyed by rain/water from the sky/an adjoining roof. Water accumulated 2" deep on the floor.

17 1991: Video would be nice! A rare display (for this region) of the aurora borealis shimmered across the night sky over W NC. Crimson red was foremost (which led to many calls to law enforcement offices that the “mountains were on fire”); green/yellow colors also noted.

PaLm sunDay 2012: Hail to baseball size, driven by winds to 75 mph, pounded McAllen, TX, for 1 hour; accumulations to 6", drifts to 4'. $50+ million damage. A BMW dealership had almost all its inventory destroyed (77 cars) at an average loss of $50,000. 1,100 homes seriously damaged.

4 1888 (11th–14th): The historic “Blizzard of 88” paralyzed E NY and most of New England. Middletown, CT, set CT’s state snowfall record for a single storm with 50". Albany, NY, set its record with 46.7". Saratoga, NY, had 58". New York City: 20.9" and drifts to 20'.

Forecasting Human Behavior When Severe Weather Threatens

By Scott Hadly

orecasters are good at predicting severe storms and sounding the alarm, but they’re not so good at predicting how people will respond to those alerts. As we’ve watched from our living rooms, in one disaster after another, people ignore dire warnings and decide, in spite of the extreme danger, to weather the storms. A few scientists even believe that on some basic level, human beings are “hard-wired” to ignore—or at the very least delay their response to—those warnings.

“Humans are the hardest animal on the planet to warn,” said Dennis S. Mileti, a professor emeritus at the University of Colorado in Boulder who has studied decades of data from natural disasters and people’s responses to public warnings. Most people never experience the wrath of nature. They assume they are safe, Mileti said in a presentation on people’s response to evacuation warnings. “The result is that most people do not perceive risk,” he said. “Instead, most people think they are safe” from both man-made and natural disasters. It’s not so much that people are hard-wired to ignore warnings, but that they feel compelled to confirm that the threat and risk is real. They talk to neighbors and step outside as the looming threat advances. Crucial time is lost, and this “sense-making” instinct also opens people up to the possibility of false information and rumors. “They want to know if (the threat) is real,” said David

Abramsom, the Deputy Director of the National Center for Disaster Preparedness. Like reporters confirming a story, people are looking to multiple sources of information to verify that they are indeed in real danger, Abramson said. “People often are calling friends and family or looking out the window or going outside. They want to check,” he said. One of the most common responses to a tornado warning is that people go outside, putting themselves at the greatest risk, said Jacqui Wilmshurst, a professor at the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom who has studied responses to natural disasters, including tornados in the Midwest. “To what extent this is ‘hardwiring’ as opposed to social conditioning I don’t know, but when I interviewed people, many said that they just felt a ‘need’ to go and see for themselves despite realizing how dangerous that was,” Wilmshurst said. “It certainly

seems to involve some kind of clash between conscious and unconscious drives and processes.” But she also found responses were not universal. Women tend to be more likely to respond to a warning, while men had a tendency to want to confirm the threat. Young men and teenagers are even slower to respond, while some stay behind, perhaps as a way to defy the authorities or simply to “demonstrate their bravery to others in their peer group.” There is no single reason to explain how people respond to warnings. The strength and frequency of the message and the source of the message play a large role in how people respond. Sometimes cultural or socio-economic factors come into play. During an effort to evacuate people in Texas as Hurricane Ike loomed in 2008, emergency officials provided buses, but groups of undocumented immigrants worried that they’d have their papers checked and risk

deportation if they used the buses. They decided to stay behind. During Hurricane Katrina, some stayed behind because they had loved ones who were either too old or too disabled to be moved. “The main themes that I came across in my work that had not been taken fully enough into account were the degree of emotional attachment to place— sometimes the land, sometimes the community, and sometimes the individual home,” said Wilmshurst. In some locales people distrust the federal or state government or the media, playing a role in whether they listen to warnings or not. That explains why using multiple sources to broadcast the same message can help improve response. Researchers also have found that experience in prior disasters influences response. Several months after the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina—which killed more than 1,800 people and caused an estimated $81 billion in damage—Hurricane Rita bore down on the coast of Texas and Louisiana. It triggered one of the largest evacuations in U.S. history. After interviewing evacuees, researchers from the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, found most of those who fled said the devastation from Katrina was what prompted them to leave. But Wilmshurst said that past experience isn’t always an indicator of response. Research on victims of a Tasmanian wildfire found that two people who lost their homes had polar opposite reactions to the disaster, she said. One said he’d do everything to prevent it from happening again, while the other said he felt powerless in the face of the

disaster and was resigned to protect himself or his property. But how they might react to an actual disaster, as opposed to how they said they’d react, may be totally different. Wilmshurst said this reflected an “attitude-behavior” gap that’s been a large part of disaster response research. “It seems that many complex sets of factors can get in the way of what we think we would do and what we actually end up doing,” she said. “My feeling is that this also has a lot to do with conflicting messages between our rational conscious brain and our deeply embedded unconscious beliefs, drives, and instincts.” While human behavior is hard to predict, understanding why people act in the way they do in the face of devastating hurricanes, floods, tornados, and wildfires has enabled emergency officials to change how they warn people more effectively. Ultimately it may help save lives, said Laura Myers, a sociologist at Mississippi State University who has studied disaster warnings and their aftermath. In research she did after the deadly tornado that killed 158 people in Joplin, Missouri, in May of 2011, she found that “people don’t want to take action unless they have to, so they wait for that confirmation, and they wait to determine if it is serious enough for them to take action.” Changing how the message is delivered and making it specific to

the threat can improve people’s responsiveness, said Myers. For instance, telling those who live in the path of a tornado that they “could die or be injured” if they failed to evacuate is likey to get attention. That message should be accompanied by clear instructions as to what to do. “Take cover in your basement, a shelter, or ditch,” for example, should be delivered from a collection of credible sources. In many cases that might be a local fire chief, sheriff, or other trusted public official. But, there is no one credible source. Repeating the message from various sources helps improve responsiveness, Myers said. Warnings can be improved, but there is no guarantee that even the best ones will be heeded. An estimated 80 percent of those in the path of Hurricane Katrina did evacuate, a rate that is considered a success. But the human death toll from the disaster and its aftermath rank it among the worst hurricanes in U.S. history. No matter the warning, people still make mistakes. They still miscalculate and they fail to take action, leaving themselves at the mercy of the weather itself.

Matisse Jazz

New!

The Museum of Modern Art Late in his career, iconic modern artist Henri Matisse began to explore creating cut-paper collages as an alternative to brushwork, a technique he called “painting with scissors.” Often large in scale, these gouaches découpés enabled Matisse to bring his eye for color and geometry to an all-new medium. The French master’s experiment reached its fullest flower with the publication of Jazz in 1947, a book of prints made from his cutout collages combining circus and theatrical imagery around a central theme of improvisation and variation. Matisse Jazz 2015 features 12 of the most playful and powerful plates from Jazz.

• Bold, sensual, and full of the riotous joie de vivre that characterizes Matisse’s most famous paintings, these works add color and vibrancy to any space. • Matisse’s cutouts are the subject of a major new exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art in late 2014, bringing together the artist’s various collages and gouaches découpés, including pages from Jazz and Blue Nude, for all new examination.
