The bitter history of Canada's attempt to wipe out aboriginal culture through a system of Church-run schools has come to Canada's largest and most invisible Native community — and it's biggest city.
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada is meeting with 600 delegates, including about 100 residential school survivors, in downtown Toronto at a May 31 to June 2 community-organized event called The Meeting Place, a name that freely translates the Mohawk word ktaronto, which eventually became the name of the city. There are about 80,000 aboriginal Canadians — Metis, Indian and Inuit — living in Toronto.
TORONTO - The long, hard national look at Canada's history of the Indian residential schools comes to Toronto May 31 to June 2.
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada is supporting a regional event at Toronto's Sheraton Centre Hotel. The three days will give Toronto-area First Nations' people a chance to learn about the history of residential schools and an opportunity to share personal stories about the residential school experience and how it has affected families.
Vincentians aid Attawapiskat
A house is just a big container. It's what you put in it that makes it a home. The St. Vincent de Paul Society at St. Kevin's in Val Therese, Ont., knows the difference.
The Vincentians inspired parishioners at St. Kevin's and their fellow Vincentians around the province to contribute $24,000 to help furnish pre-fab houses going to the native community of Attawapiskat, Ont.
Anishinaabe elders adopt Archbishop Weisgerber
WINNIPEG - Anishinaabe elders and community leaders adopted Archbishop James Weisgerber of Winnipeg as their brother April 14 in a traditional ceremony at Thunderbird House in Winnipeg, the first event of its kind in the reconciliation between Indian residential school survivors and missionary churches.
"This is part of a long journey for me," Weisgerber said.
As a priest in Saskatchewan, he had been a pastoral minister at four of what were then called Indian reserves, "but nobody ever talked about the residential schools," he said. In 1990, Phil Fontaine, former National Chief of the Assembly of First Nations, "made a public declaration and released a huge barrage, and more people began speaking and I began to understand," Weisgerber said.
TORONTO - In his Grade 9 art class at Fr. John Redmond Catholic Secondary School in west end Toronto, Roman Makuch is drawing beavers, turtles and geese, trying to see through aboriginal eyes and express himself with First Nations' symbols. The semester dedicated to studying aboriginal art is not easy, Makuch tells a visitor. But he believes it's valuable.
"We're all Canadian," he said. "We're all proud of being Canadian and part of our past is aboriginal."
Grade 12 student Radiyah Chowthury spent last year reading aboriginal authors in her Grade 11 University Enriched Natives Studies English class at Blessed Mother Teresa Catholic Secondary School in Toronto's Malvern community. She can't imagine not studying aboriginal authors. As an immigrant kid, she's unwilling to settle for a history of Canada that begins and ends with European sailors bumping into a big, cold land mass on their way to India.
MPs vote unanimously to fulfill Shannen's dream
OTTAWA - Shannen Koostachin had a dream for "safe and comfy" culturally sensitive schools for First Nations children like herself.
On Feb. 27, a vote in the House of Commons brought that dream closer to reality.
The House of Commons voted unanimously to "adopt Shannen's Dream" by declaring First Nations children's "equal right to high-quality, culturally relevant education" and to provide the necessary policy changes, consultation and funding support to make a First Nations' education system "at a minimum" equal in quality to provincial systems.
Fatima students witness to Christ in aiding Attawapiskat brethren
TORONTO - There is the poverty, the high cost of food, lack of clean water and acceptable housing, the lack of concern for the people's wellbeing, the high rate of disease and of course the whole situation around the school. Nobody has the silver bullet that will fix education in Attiwapiskat in northern Ontario.
But that doesn't mean we do nothing. Mother Teresa most often gets credit for telling us that we're not called to be successful. We're called to be faithful.
As a Toronto Catholic District School Board teacher, I've been working with Attawapiskat for 10 years. It started when I was a literacy resource teacher heading up our early reading intervention program. The principal of Attiwapiskat's JR Nakogee School contacted me. The challenge at his school was and still is raising the literacy skills.
Truth and Reconciliation Commission seeks more government co-operation
Churches need to define how they're going to help repair the damage residential schools did to aboriginal culture in Canada and the federal government must cough up the millions of documents that future historians will need to tell the story of Canada's effort to assimilate First Nations' people, says the interim report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada.
The report marks the halfway point of the five-year mandate of the commission. It warns that government reluctance to provide full and meaningful access to Library and Archives Canada records threatens the mandate of the commission. The TRC intends to go to court to force greater government co-operation.
Those devoted to Blessed Kateri 'walking on air' about canonization
SYRACUSE, N.Y. - Since first learning in December that Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha was to be canonized, the head of a committee named for her in the Syracuse Diocese said those who have a devotion to the saint to be "are walking on air."
"I can't tell you how excited we are," said Emily Garrow-Stewart, a Mohawk who grew up hearing Blessed Kateri's story in her home.
"She has been a part of my life since I was a child," she said. "There was always a picture of her in the house. She is such a good role model and example. In my mind, there is always such a light about her."
UN to hear of 'shameful' conditions for native children
TORONTO - A half-dozen aboriginal youth headed for Geneva have shameful things to say about Canada and how it treats First Nations children. But their testimony before the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child will be given in the hope that Canada can do better, the young delegates told media in Toronto Feb. 2.
"There's been talk for years and years and years. If there's just going to be more talk, I wouldn't consider that a success," said 24-year-old John-Paul Chalykoff from the Michipicoten First Nation on the north shore of Lake Superior.
Crown, First Nations' covenants must be retained
OTTAWA - The historic Crown-First Nations Gathering revealed stark differences on how the relationship between Canada's founding peoples and the government, embodied in the Indian Act, should continue.
And whatever is resolved, an advisor to the Catholic Church said, must re-affirm historic treaties signed between the two.
It is about recognizing the sacred importance of covenants, said Gerry Kelly at the one-day gathering held in Ottawa Jan. 24. Kelly is the former director of the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops' secretariat on aboriginal affairs and now advises Catholic entities regarding the Indian Residential Schools legacy.
"Our whole understanding of our relationship with God is understood scripturally in terms of covenants," said Kelly. "We understand what it means. A covenant is sacred. We can't hold that position and not recognize the covenant relationship established by treaties. It is timeless and it is binding."
Assembly of First Nations National Chief Shawn Atleo called the Indian Act "a breach" of the government's commitment to First Nations peoples that was "built on a disgraceful premise of our inferiority."
"It is well past time that we began to undo the damage that Act has inflicted on our peoples, and to our partnership," Atleo said, noting it formed the basis for the reserve system, residential schools and prohibitions of spiritual and cultural practices.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper, however, promised an incremental approach to remedying some problems inherent in the Act, but bluntly stated his government had "no grand scheme to repeal or to unilaterally re-write the Indian Act."
"After 136 years, that tree has deep roots. Blowing up the stump would just leave a big hole," Harper told the more than 150 First Nations leaders at the gathering. "However, there are ways, creative ways, collaborative ways, ways that involve consultation between our government, the provinces and First Nations leadership and communities, ways that provide options within the Act, or outside of it, for practical, incremental and real change."
The gathering was called to find ways to improve the relationship between Canada's First Nations' people and the federal government. It had been planned for some time, with the date finalized during the period in late 2011 when images of the poverty on Canada's reserves were brought to the forefront with the poor housing conditions that plagued Attawapiskat in Northern Ontario.
Kelly said incremental approaches are not problematic in themselves.
"So much of this depends on good intentions and fairness," he said. The challenge in the past has been with First Nations and bands being pressured "to give up their full rights for a limited parcel of rights."
The other problems with an incremental approach are strictly practical, he said.
"The longer this process takes, the more resources are taken from First Nations lands in the context where their rights to resources and benefiting from those resources are ignored."
Aboriginal entrepreneur and consultant David Acco, a Catholic and Montreal-based member of the Cree First Nation, said the gathering could not have taken place in the 1960s or '70s with the kind of aboriginal inclusiveness of today. Aboriginal people have developed the leadership abilities and legal skills to put them in a better position to negotiate, he said.
Acco, president of Acosys Consulting, said a long-term vision is needed that takes into consideration how current negotiations will affect future generations.
"I don't think aboriginal people are going to get another opportunity to right the wrongs of the past like we have now in another 100 years," Acco said.
He also raised concerns about incremental approaches creating a hierarchy of "haves" and "have-nots" that will see some First Nations rewarded and others, like Attawapiskat, left behind. Communities like Attawapiskat need the Indian Act for their survival, Acco said, because of the fiduciary responsibility the Crown has to First Nations. An incremental approach decentralizes and potentially fragments any unity among First Nations, he said.
The gathering's "outcome statement" affirmed principles in the Joint Action Plan the government and First Nations developed in June 2011 that included improving relationships and partnerships "respectful of aboriginal and treaty rights," transparent and accountable governance, empowering success through education and opportunity, promoting self-sufficient communities and assisting economic development that will benefit all Canadians.
The statement called for immediate action on a renewed relationship that includes multi-year funding, improved financial accountability on the part of all with the goal of First Nations financial self-sufficiency. It affirmed an incremental approach to "removing barriers to First Nations governance," by working around and through existing mechanisms in the Indian Act, which cannot be replaced overnight,"and committed both parties to "respect and honour our treaty relationship and advance approaches to find common ground on treaty implementation."
Gathering offers opportunity to reset First Nations relations
OTTAWA - Winnipeg Archbishop James Weisgerber believes that "rebalancing the relationship" between First Nations peoples and the government may be the most important issue in Canada today.
To that end, he hopes the Jan. 24 summit in Ottawa between First Nations leaders and the federal government will finally address what he calls the "tremendous inequalities and great suffering" of Canada's aboriginal peoples.
"The federal government has a lead role," Weisgerber said. "We arrived (and) we made treaties that are supposed to be the basis on which we share coming together."
Bishops create webpage on the Church, aboriginals
OTTAWA - The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) has launched a new webpage that traces the relationship of the Catholic Church in Canada and its First Nations' peoples.
The site sketches the history of relations with indigenous peoples, many of whom became part of the Church and "gave much to it." It cites Joseph Chiwatenhwa, Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha and "Grand Chief Henri Membertou, who became the first aboriginal leader to be baptized by the French, as a sign of alliance and good faith in 1610."
Make a new start with First Nations leaders
Decades of failed policies and broken treaties have created an appalling level of social and economic misery that affect every layer of aboriginal life. So the first thing needed to fix the problem is a decision about where to start.
To that end, First Nations leaders will meet with Prime Minister Stephen Harper and key government members on Jan. 24 in an Ottawa summit to address what Archbishop James Weisgerber of Winnipeg ranks as the most important issue facing Canadian society today — forging a new relationship between the First Nations, Metis and Inuit people and the rest of Canada.
Pope clears way for Kateri Tekakwitha's canonization
When Canada's first aboriginal saint is canonized, it will be an answered prayer for native people across Canada and beyond.
"There's a natural sense of pride and joy," among native people said Whitehorse Bishop Gary Gordon.
On hearing the news that Pope Benedict XVI had cleared the way for Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha to be canonized, perhaps as early as spring 2012, Gordon planned to phone his old friend Steve Point, the Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia. Point is a former elected chief of the Skowkale First Nation.

The Greatest Sports Uniforms of All TimeMay 12, 2008
Many people on this website write about their favorite team or other issues in sports. I have decided to compile an article of my favorite sports uniforms. Some teams decide to change their uniforms to appeal to the fans or to break a curse. Some of my favorites might surprise you because of their controversial color schemes.
For Major League Baseball, this team won't surprise you. The New York Yankees' uniforms are understandable because their jerseys have not been altered for years. The pinstripes have been emulated by the cross-town Mets, the Chicago Cubs, the White Sox and the Diamondbacks inaugural home jerseys.
The pinstripes are identified with the Yankees, baseball, and most of New York. When the Yankees were in Japan in 2004 to open their season, they were requested to wear the famous pinstripes.
The Yankees' cap also hasn't changed since the early 20th century when they added their famous interlocking NY. Overall, the Yankees design is simple and still looks great on the field.
The late 1980's and early 1990's in sports came with many new expansion teams (Marlins, Panthers, Jaguars, Hornets) which also meant teams opting to choose teal with their uniforms. In the NBA, I absolutely love the Charlotte Hornets' jerseys.
Their uniforms had a very interesting color scheme with the teal and purple look. Their home jerseys were white with the teal writing which really differentiated them from other teams.
Their most interesting jersey though was the purple alternate jersey. A violet look had really only been done by the Lakers when they moved to Los Angeles. The Hornets home jersey also sometimes had pinstripes on it.
As from the Yankees, you can see my affinity for pinstripes. The teal away-jersey was a very vibrant color and recently I purchased an Alonzo Mourning teal jersey. This jersey was very original in the NBA for that time and was so innovative that the Vancouver Grizzlies decided to use teal as their primary color.
The NFL has had many different types of odd uniforms. Whether it be the Bronco's orange home jerseys or the early Buccaneers uniforms, teams have tried anything for their uniforms to be noticeable. But is "noticeable" what defines a great athletic outfit? No; and that's why I like the 49ers jersey from their glory days.
There is something about those caramel-colored pants with the red top and white numbers. Seeing Joe Montana lead drives against the Bengals in the Super Bowl, those uniforms stood out. These uniforms are simple, but the colors always make a statement.
The modern-day 49ers uniforms don't exactly do it for me. Their design is too complicated.
In hockey, it was tough to identify a favorite. Hockey uniforms offer more design options because of the long sleeves.
Powder blue is a favorite color of mine. The Pittsburgh Penguins jerseys that debuted in the 1971-72 season have the powder-blue design. In the middle it had the Penguins logo which is one of my favorite logos of all time. It is an interesting-looking logo because the Penguin is holding a hockey stick. This jersey is so much different than any of their other jerseys; therefore, it is very original.
Those are my favorites, feel free to leave your comments.

Title: Playing For Keeps
Isn't That Gerard Butler Dreamy? That's certainly what the fine folks at Open Road Films and FilmDistrict are banking on.
Rating Using Random Objects Relevant To The Film: One "own goal" out of five.
Brief Plot Synopsis: Serial philanderer and absentee father attempts to worm his way back into family's life.
Tagline: "This holiday season, what do you really want?"
Better Tagline: "Self-esteem is overrated, ladies."
Not So Brief Plot Synopsis: George Dryer (Butler) was once a formidable Scottish soccer player, but his career was shortened by injury and he now finds himself divorced, mostly destitute, and moving to Virginia to be closer to his young son Lewis (Noah Lomax). He ends up coaching Lewis' soccer team, bringing him closer to his ex, Stacie (Jessica Biel) while also carbonating the hormones of several of the other moms in attendance.
"Critical" Analysis: There are two types of people who are going to see Playing for Keeps: those who wish to gaze longingly at Gerard Butler, and the significant others they drag along. Having said that, I can't decide if Butler's looks make the movie more or less believable.
On one hand, Butler pretty much embodies the opposite of "down on his luck." At first, I thought his five o'clock shadow was supposed to convey a sense of disillusionment and loss of hope following a couple failed business ventures, then I realized it was a conscious fashion choice. And he puts his ample free time to use hitting the P90X, as the obligatory shirtless shot proves.
On the other, none of this would be even remotely plausible if Dryer looked like an actual Scottish soccer player, like Craig Winter or Colin Hendry. Even then, the presumption that dimples, an accent, and a six-pack will make any women drop her drawers regardless of age or marital status is pretty ridiculous.
At least, I hope it is.
See, I need to know that the lead in a movie like this has suffered somewhat, or gone through a personal transformation before he gets his happy ending, but that isn't the case. George screwed his way out of a decent marriage and bailed on his kid, only returning after pissing his money away. Yet his financial woes hardly play into it when his new buddy, shady soccer dad Carl (Dennis Quaid), loans him a Ferrari and gives him some walking around money ("to buy trophies," he says).
And even as he ostensibly seeks to win Stacie back, he still can't resist nailing an emotionally damaged single mom (Judy Greer) as well as a more calculating married one (Catherine Zeta-Jones). Stacie even finds evidence (albeit misleading) that George is sleeping with Carl's wife Patti (Uma Thurman), but even though it's never explained that she was one of the few women he didn't pork, she still forgives him.
Which brings us back to negative repercussions, or rather, the lack thereof. Surely Carl will expect some payback for lending George the car and money? Nope. Surely one of these one-night stands will come back to bite him on the ass (and not in a good way)? Nope.

And then there's Stacie, who may as well wear a doormat instead of a a sweater. I guess not even a big house and a kind, caring fiancé can withstand the power of Gerard Butler's ... Gerard Butlerness.
I understand how romantic comedies are supposed to work -- believe me, I've seen enough of them -- but as Van Helsing said, "we have to pass through bitter waters before we reach the sweet." Even Julia Roberts presumably had to toss a few salads before getting her happily ever after. I fail to see why "George Dryer" should be any different.
Playing for Keeps is in theaters today. I'd rather sit through the Dynamo losing the MLS Cup Finals again.

Beware the Texas no-refusal policy: If you're a common motorist or a commercial truck driver and you've been drinking, refusing the breath test might not save you. In fact - and this is particularly relevant if you hate needles - your breath test refusal might just earn you a spot in line at the mobile unit to have your blood drawn.
Texas law enforcement authorities have been cracking down on drunk driving. Motivated by rising deaths from alcohol-related car and truck accidents, the Texas Department of Transportation is running a campaign with a sober Santa calling a fleet of cabs rather than relying on his drunken reindeer to pull the sleigh on Christmas Eve.
And local authorities in Texas cities like San Antonio are implementing the no-refusal policy over the holidays - a policy that involves on-call judges to issue search (blood) warrants and on-call nurses to draw your blood on authority of the warrant.
If you are drinking and cause an accident, you can be assured that Texas officers will seek to have your blood drawn if you refuse the breath test. Even if you don't cause an accident, the no-refusal policy might cause you to get your blood drawn for analysis of alcohol content.

This shift could reduce the "implied performance pressure" on creators.
Effective September 2019, YouTube has abbreviated public subscriber counts for all creators with over 1000 subscribers. For example, the count for a channel with 133,017 subscribers will now be condensed to 133K.
This change could negatively impact larger accounts by significantly reducing their public subscriber listings. Brands and niche influencers may not get an accurate sense of their popularity as numbers will be rounded up. This means, a channel with a 120,450,000 subscriber count could see its count condensed to 120M.
While channel owners will have full view of the exact count in their analytics, the shift may result in lost opportunities. The change is aimed at maintaining consistency across YouTube's public surfaces, to protect creator wellbeing and to reduce performance pressure by alleviating stress around real-time tracking of subscriber counts.

2009 Newfoundland and Labrador Budget
Newfoundland and Labrador Finance Minister Jerome Kennedy delivers the 2009 budget in St. John's, Nfld., March 26, 2009.
The Newfoundland and Labrador government is forecasting a $750-million deficit for 2009–2010, a drop from the $2.4-billion surplus it recorded last year. The change is largely due to weakened oil prices, but the provincial government is also putting the blame on the action of the federal government to eliminate benefits this year under the 1985 Atlantic Accord. The 2009 budget provides economic stimulus, benefiting the people and the communities of Newfoundland and Labrador. Furthermore, it includes targeted expenditures in economic development, infrastructure, health, education, poverty reduction, and the environment.

Barreña Agirrebeitia, Andoni (1993) Haur euskaldunen hizkuntzaren jabekuntza-garapena: Infl eta Konp funtzio kategorien erabileraz. (Basque-speaking children"s language adquisiton: use of the functional categories INFL and COMP). Other thesis, Universidad del País Vasco.Texto completo no está disponible desde este repositorio.
This research was carried out with a double purpose: to describe the process of Basque grammar acquisition on one hand and, on the other, to define the successive stages of acquisition, according to the development of different grammatical categories.
We would like to point out though several similar studies which refer to different languages (English, German, Swedish, etc) have already been carried out, this is the first to describe the acquisition of Basque grammar based on longitudinal data.
It has been possible thanks to the collaboration and effort within two research projects: HEGEHJ (Haur euskara gaztelania elebidunen hizkuntza jabekuntza - Language acquisition in Basque-Spanich bilingual children) at the University of the Basque Country, and BUSDE (Baskisch und Spanisch doppelter Erstspracherwerb - Basque and Spanish, adquisition of two first languages) at Hamburg University, directed by two experts: Itziar Idiazabal and Jürgen Meisel. These groups of researchers have collected fortnightly data on Basque nomolingual and Basque-Spanish bilingual children, from the age of 1,06 to the age of 5,06. In the presen study, the productions in Basque of one monolinual and two bilingual children, ages 1,06 to 4,00 have been analysed.
The following linguistic units have been taken into account; grammar cases (absolutive, ergative and dative), verbal agreement (subject, direct and indirect objects), verbal tense, verbal mode, verbal aspect, verbal negation, temporal and non-temporal subordinate clauses, wh-questions and some apects of order of constituents in declarative sentences. With Chomsky"s Universal Grammar as a starting point, the Principles and Parameter Model establishes a differentiation between lexical categories (noun, verb, adjective, preposition) and functional categories, constructed as a projection of the lexical ones (Determiner Phrase, INFL(ection) Phrase, COMP (lementizer) Phrase, etc.). According to several contributions to the studies of child language: Radford (1986) for English, Parodi (1989) for French-German bilingual people, Platzack (1990) for Swedish children, etc., there is a short period, previous to the development of grammar, during which children do not use structures corresponding to the functional categories INFL and COMP. This period ranges approximately from 1,06 to 2,01 years of age. Aldridge (1986) and Meisel (1990) state that the acquisition of the functional categories and, consequently, of syntax, is gradual. This graduation is even extended to the different components or features of INFL: different agreements and tense.
Having analysed this data, the main conclusions obtained are as follows:
1. The process of acquisition in similar in the three children: the different categories analysed develop in parallel in each of them. 2. Previous to the process of grammatical development, a pregrammar or pre-syntactic period is observed, during which the children do not use grammatical or syntactic principles. 3. What is considered the nucleus of grammar is developed between 2;00 and 3;00 year of age approximately, although there are individual differences due to the moment when this process is initiated. 4. The process is gradual: the INFL category precedes the COMP category. 5. Acquisition of INFL is gradual. Its different components or features appear gradually, following the same order in the three children: Subject Agreement, Indirect Object Agreement, Direct Object Agreement (3rd person only), Verbal Tense and Moon. Verbal Aspect seem to appear at the same time as Subject Agreement. 6. The process of grammar acquisition is independent and runs separately from the semantic-pragmatic development

Amba Moon Gatherings are an incredibly nourishing experience. You feel connected to the long lineage of women who have gathered ritualistically throughout the years as a part of their culture. During my first Amba Lodge, I felt a profound understanding of why it is necessary for woman to commune in this way. ~ Lisa Gunn
The moment I stepped into the moon gathering, I felt I could put down my armor. Meghan has created such a beautiful and nourishing space for women, it was so easy to melt into the softness my body was craving. I felt transported into a sacred temple, far outside the city. I left the evening feeling so connected to my body and my heart. So connected to feminine power and beauty. Invigorated, seen, loved, whole, and inspired. ~ Kaitlin Huwe, actress, yoga teacher, singer/songwriter

Invitation of the project What to affirm? What to perform? to the 2009 History Forum in Berlin
2009 History Forum
Awakening 1989 – Ways out of German and European separation
Berlin, 28 to 31 May 2009
After successful events in the years 1949/89/99, the 2009 History Forum is turning to academics, creators of culture, educationalists, journalists and those interested in history to understand the year 1989 as a historical and cultural turning point and to discuss the various recollections of the overcoming of the communist dictatorships in Germany and east-central Europe.
The Tanzquartier Wien (TQW) and the Allianz Kulturstiftung have followed the invitation to this famous major event.
The two-year project What to affirm? What to perform? which was initiated by the TQW in cooperation with the Allianz Kulturstiftung, attempts to develop a new form of reading of the history of dance in eastern and south-eastern Europe. Contemporary dance here was only able to begin to establish and institutionalise itself with the beginning of the downfall of the communist regimes in the 1980s, but it was already present in a latent form previously, in fine art, contemporary music, experimental theatre and performance art. The aim of this project is to record the significance of eastern-European dance history and thereby for the first time to be in a position to create any kind of basis for an all-European dance history. In the 2009 History Forum in dialogue with the Slovenian director, performer and theoretician Janez Janša (SLO), Franz Anton Cramer (D), a dance scholar and visiting professor at the Inter-University Centre of Dance in Berlin, discusses the importance of the artistic reconstruction and of the re-enactment for consolidating Europe's dance history.Sunday, May 31, 11 at Gorki Theater, Vorbühne. What to affirm? What to perform? is a cooperation between the Allianz Kulturstiftung, CDU Centre for Drama Arts Zagreb, CNDB Centrul Naţional al dansului Bukarest, Maska Ljubljana and the Tanzquartier Wien.
A detailed programme of the 2009 History Forum is available from mid-April at www.geschichtsforum09.de

Spray Polyurethane Foam Market - Bio-Based SPF Are Expected to Offer Huge Growth Opportunity for the Market
Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) is produced by reacting isocyanates such as MDI (Methylene diphenyl diisocyanate) and polyols in the presence of catalysts, flame retardants and blowing agents. The foam is then sprayed or pumped on building substrates as an insulating material.
Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 03/28/2016 --Spray polyurethane foam are produced by mixing certain isocyanates and polyols in the presence of catalysts, flame retardants and blowing agents. The foam is sprayed using a spray gun on several surfaces as an insulating material.
This report comprises in-depth analysis and forecast of the spray polyurethane foam market on a global as well as regional level. The report includes forecast for the period from 2013 to 2019 in terms of volume (kilo tons) and revenue (USD Million) for the regional and global markets. Quantitative data has been derived through extensive secondary research of the global spray polyurethane foam market.

NT hit for renewable contradiction
The Climate Council says the Northern Territory is lagging significantly behind the rest of the country in developing renewable energy.
The NT has been stuck at the bottom of the council's yearly 'State of Play' review, which ranks Australian states and territories on their renewable energy targets and criteria.
South Australia and the ACT are currently generating over half of their electricity from wind and solar.
Meanwhile, the Northern Territory only obtains 4 per cent of its energy from renewable sources.
However, that figure is double what it was two years ago, when the Territory's Gunner Government announced a renewable energy target of 50 per cent by 2030.
The Climate Council's Greg Bourne (a former president of BP Australasia) says the NT Government is being contradictory - setting renewable targets with one hand while supporting growth in onshore fracking and gas exports with the other.
"This is a real problem, not only for the Northern Territory and Western Australia but other states as well, and indeed other countries," he told reporters.
"Pushing fossil fuel exports and at the same time enunciating that they are going to try and reduce emissions, the two things become incompatible.
"That incompatibility will be shown more starkly as the years go by.
"If the Northern Territory, with its low population, does manage to create a large gas industry, the question that comes is who else in Australia offsets those emissions?
"But the good news is the Northern Territory is starting to look at things now and there is a lot of opportunity for solar."
The ACT is on track to achieve 100 per cent renewable energy from January 1, 2020, which would make it the eighth jurisdiction in the world with a population over 100,000 to reach that target.

My Mechanical Journey With 'Journey'
All games are simulations. They use the cold, pure logic of mechanical systems to create warm emotional connections.
All games are simulations. They use the cold, pure logic of mechanical systems to create warm emotional connections. It's all a wonderful kind of manipulation, and when it works, it feels like magic. Journey is a great example of this kind of game, one that works its magic on the player whether we want it or not by reinforcing a certain thought process over and over again until the player unwittingly agrees to go along with it.
When I started Journey I didn't want a cooperative experience: I actively avoided other people, I got angry at the mere sight of them, I didn't want them solving my puzzles or showing me the way, yet by the end of the game I found myself chirping frantically for my lost companion, hoping he'd return.
It all stems from the scarf. You can only jump when your scarf is glowing, and you have to collect floating pieces of cloth to make it glow. That, or stand next to another player. This is all there is to Journey, at least in terms of cooperative gameplay. Making our scarf glow, giving us the ability to jump, is the only mechanic that the game uses to encourage a bond between players, anything more than this stems from the players themselves. If you don't want to interact with people, there's nothing else in the game that pushes you towards doing so. You don't have to show them around, you don't have to follow them, you don't have to help them solve puzzles, you don't have to let them solve puzzles for you, and I went through a majority of the game as a curmudgeon. And the game let me.
The final level has you scaling a snowy mountain, and the biting chill eats away at your glowing scarf until it no longer glows and you can no longer jump. It's an excellent way of relating the pain of the cold to the player, but more importantly it takes away what has been, until now, our most important form of movement. This loss is devastating, especially coming after a sequence in which you're essentially flying up a spire with an unlimited ability to jump. So you can't jump, your walking animation is slowed when moving through snow, and then you have to hide from a flying creature that will eat what little is left of your scarf. Everything about this sequence is designed to make you feel weak -- unless you're with another player.
This is when the game turned for me. I met a companion just as we started the climb, and we stuck together the whole way so our scarves never stopped glowing. It should be noted that this part of the game is not a platformer. It never demands that you jump at any point (since you can't jump if you're alone) so we never needed our glowing scarves, but it was still reassuring to know that I had that ability. The game was able to evoke a sense of pain, support, and reassurance through a single mechanic.
But what I find it most interesting is that this mechanic only worked for me after the game threatened to take it away. So much of Journey is about giving you a sense of freedom, the ability to float and fly and explore as if you were in a dream, but this exaggerated reality is not new in games. It's quite common. To experience it here was nothing special. It felt no more magical than hopping on the jet bike in Saints Row: The Third. But when the game tried to take that freedom away, and I still found a way to hang onto it, in however limited a fashion, that limited ability suddenly felt more freeing than it had before, even though I never actually used it.
It's all matter of context. When the game gave me freedom, I didn't care. When the game took away my freedom, then I cared. This is an example of one of the more powerful illusions games can create by virtue of their interactivity. The mere existence of an ability is enough to change the way we think. We don't have to use it, we don't have to need it, we don't even have to want it, but the simple knowledge that it exists is enough to evoke an emotional reaction.
The emotional experiment of Journey that so many others have praised fell flat for me most of the time, but it saved itself in the end by changing its focus from provoking the standard gaming emotions of empowerment and wonder to provoking the more subtle emotions of safety and reassurance. I couldn't resist.

Nicole Scherzinger looked stunning in a plunging black sheer dress on the red carpet at the National TV Awards 2013 in London last night (January 23).
The 34-year-old X Factor judge wore a William Vintage Ossie Clark gown - only for it to turn see-through from all the flashing of the photographers' camera bulbs, revealing the star's strategically placed nipple covers.
The former Pussycat Doll accessorised with a Chanel gold heart pendant and roman coin pendant from Susan Caplan Vintage Collection, and wore her hair in curls at the annual ceremony at the O2.
Scherzinger was on hand to present the 'Entertainment Presenter' award at the event, which went to Ant & Dec. Sadly for the star, The X Factor lost out to Strictly Come Dancing in the 'Talent Show' category.
The singer also premiered her new single today (January 24).
'Boomerang' is released on March 10 in the UK as the first cut to be lifted from her upcoming second solo album.

The advent of Savings bank service in Malaysia dates back to the late 19th century. The first banks, namely the Perak and the Selangor Savings Bank were started in 1888 and 1893 respectively and were administered by the respective State Treasuries until they were taken over by the Postal Department. In 1907 the Perak and Selangor Savings Banks were dissolved and brought under the Federated Malay States Post Office Savings Banks which also provided services in the states of Negeri Sembilan and Pahang. It had then 3,320 depositors with just over RM340,000 standing to their credit.
Separate Savings Bank services under the Straits Settlement Post Office Savings Bank were in existence in Penang, Malacca and Singapore as early as 1902 while the Unfederated Malay States had their own Post Office Savings Banks in the years prior to the Second World War. For more visit mybsn.com.my

Cross Country Preview: Team by Team
Narrows League
Class 4A
Central Kitsap Cougars
Coach: Mark Ward, fourth year
Last year: Seventh at league meet.
Top returners: Danny Kelly, so.; Kyle Samson, so.; Nick Vasquez, sr.; Brent Jackley, so.; Sam Alvarado, so.; Tim Woodworth, sr.

Outlook: The Central Kitsap girls have reasons for their high expectations. There's the turnout of 63, the highest they've seen, and six of the seven girls that ran at state return. Christen was 15th at state last year and is one of the top runners around (see related story). Freshman Claeys adds even more talent. The boys are young with the top seven all sophomores and freshmen. Caroll has emerged as the top runner on a team that expects to be decent by postseason.
South Kitsap Wolves
Coach: Paul Zimmer, seventh year
Last year: Third in league, 10th at districts.
Top returners: LaForrest Church, sr.; Jacob Yarbrough, sr.; Kyle North, sr.; Nick Sleigh, sr.; Zack Sleigh, sr.; Mason Villarma, so.; Sam Grader, so.; Brady Tinker, sr.; Nathan Ford, sr.; Josh Rynes, so.

Top newcomers: Darby Womack, sr.; Emma Folkerts, fr.; Anna Parkinson, jr.
Outlook: Church leads a hungry boys team that has missed state the previous four years by five points at each district meet. Church went to state as an individual and the Wolves only graduated one runner. The girls went to state last year but graduated everybody in the top five except for Peterson, who is one of the top runners in the area. Zimmer is hoping to reload and shoot for state again.
Metro League
Class 3A
Bainbridge Spartans
Coach: Anne Howard-Lindquist, sixth year
Last year: Fifth in league, sixth at districts.
Top returners: Tyler Cox, sr.; Thomas Daniels, jr.; Tomas Delgado, sr.; Nick Entress, jr.; Davin Fitzgerald, sr.; Austin Harper, jr.; Brendan Willerford, sr.; Kiwi Sheldon, sr.; Gordon Shelton-Jenck, sr.; Nolan Stockman, jr.

Outlook: Bainbridge boasts a big turnout with 107 runners. The boys team is led by Cox, the first Bainbridge boys runner to make state in recent years. The group has been running together since 2009 and expect to compete well in the postseason. Signe Lindquist returns after making it to state last year. Howard-Lindquist said the girls will be "fast and more mysterious" as they have a talent group of young runners.
Olympic League
Class 2A/1A
Bremerton Knights
Coach: Teresa Seim, 17th year
Last year: Didn't qualify for districts from SPSL/Seamount sub-district meet.

Last year: Didn't qualify for districts from SPSL/Seamount sub-district meet.
Top returners: Alexis Burton, sr.; Elizabeth Quintana, sr.; Ansley Williamson, so., Irene Smith, so.
Top newcomers: none.
Outlook: The Knights drop down into Class 2A, which makes things much more pleasant.

Sargent, Smith and Williamson are hoping to take advantage of their final year and make a run in postseason. Seim has low numbers for the girls (five or six) and can barely field a team.

They open the season ranked eighth in the 2A. Five of the top six runners return from last year's seventh-place team. Manuguid, formerly Laubach, said the boys are motivated after missing out on making state last year.

Top returners: Hannah Welzbacker, so.; Allison Burchett, so.
Top newcomers: Mariah Morey, sr.; Cassidy Andrews, so.; Savanah Hurm, jr.

North Kitsap Vikings
Coach: Richard Christopher, fifth year
Last year: Fourth in league, seventh at districts.
Top returners: Ian Christen, sr.; Cooper Wal, sr.; Dutton Polk, so.; Sean Hitchcock, jr.; Taylor Reid, sr.

Top newcomers: Noah Denend, so.
Last year: Eighth in league.
Top returners: Caitlyn Mead, so.
Top newcomers: Danielle Walterick, so.
Outlook: The Bulldogs have low numbers this year, but O'Brien says there's still some talent in the ranks who should compete for a spot at districts. Day is in his fourth year on the team.
Olympic Trojans
Coach: Greg Chapman, 11th year
Last year: League champs, fifth at districts, 12th at state.
Top returners: Craig Boekenoogen, sr.; Zack Coulson, sr.; Tyler Church, jr.; Alex Strayer, sr.
Top newcomers: Logan Dean, fr.; Jaleel Elmore, fr.; Sean Swinton, sr.; Josh Bomkowski, sr.
Last year: Sixth in league.
Top returners: none.
Top newcomers: Serena Santos, sr.; Michelle Farr, jr.

As a pediatric oncologist, I have not had to deal with either lung or esophageal cancers.
The use of endoscopic analysis for determining lymph node involvement was quite an eye-opener.
Likewise, the immunologic histochemical variation was a valuable learning experience as were the
pathologic descriptions of adenoca variants.
The only possible criticism might be the thoracic surgeons use of acronyms without explanation, but
this was minor.
Kudos to the team

The instructors provide clear diagrams and offer a good repetition of key points throughout their lectures. I'm a high school student, and my grandmother was recently diagnosed with stage 3c NSCLC, so this course has really helped me to understand what she's going through treatmentwise. I had to supplement the course with some Googling for terms, but I really do feel accomplished and I've learned so much over the past seven weeks. Thank you, UMich!

Thank you for the interesting and accessible course on such a complicated topic. I am a biotechnologist and I did not understand all the lectures or remembered all the treatments plans but I have received a comprehensive idea of how cancer in general is treated and managed and what kind of difficulties doctor and patients encounter. Excellent course.

Tucson, ARTZ., April 11, 13-2. Hon, B. H. BREWSTER,
Aliorney-General United States, Washington, D. C.: I have now been along the southern and eastern tier of countics of Arizona. So far as my personal observation goes I am surprised at the appearance of society and order, but I hear of lawlessness and disorders, which seem well attested, and ought to be met promptly and efficiently. The civil officers have not sufficient forces to make arrests, to hold prisoners for trial, or punish when convicted. Our soldiers could well perform their office were it not for the posse comitatus, which ought to be repealed, especially as to the Territories. Unless this be done this session we may be compromised with our neighbor Mexico; for the cowboys make use of the boundary line to escape pursuit, first on the one side and then on the other. If Congress will not repeal that law promptly, then I earnestly advise the adoption of Governor Tritle's plan, as telegraphed in his message to the President of March 31, of an appropriation of $150,000 to enable him to hire suitable posse to aid the sheriff and marshals in preventing stage robberies and smuggling, cattle stealing, &c. It is idle to expect of the miners and scattered rauchmen the difficult and dangerous service of posse to arrest desperate cattle thieves, singglers, and robbers, well mounted and well armed, with thorough organization and sympathy of some of the people.
I advise you to give this matter your careful study and lively interest, for it is likely to be about the last desperate effort of this class of lawless men to make a stand for their nefarious business. The soldiers are willing, but are restrained by the posse comitatus law, designed by Congress for a totally different purpose.
I leave for California soon. Please answer direct to Governor Tritle, who has seen this.
W. T. SHERMAN, General,
A resolution of the House of Representatives relative to the reorganization
of the Second National Bank of Cincinnati, Ohio.
APRIL 29, 1882.-Referred to the Committee on Banking and Currency and ordered to
be printed.
Washington, April 28, 1882. SIR: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of the following resolution of the House of Representatives of the 27th instant:
Whereas the charter of the Second National Bank of Cincinnati will expire on or about the 25th day of May next; and,
Whereas it is alleged that said bank has gone into liquidation and has reorganized to continue its existence as a corporation under existing law: therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Comptroller of the Currency is hereby directed to communicate to this House any correspondence between him and the officers of the said bank in relation to said liquidation and reorganization, and to inform this House under what existing statutes said reorganization was authorized; and, further, to communicate the manner and form prescribed of such organization by national banks.
The Second National Bank of Cincinnati was organized on May 26, 1863, with a capital of $100,000, which was subsequently increased to $200,000. The corporate existence of the bank would continue under section 11, act of February 25, 1863, until the close of business on the 25th day of May, 1882.
The president of the bank, Hon. Benjamin Eggleston, called at this office early during the present month and informed me that it was the desire of the shareholders of that bank to organize a new institution at the time of the expiration of the corporate existence of the bank then in operation, so that the business of the old institution might be, as far as possible, continued by the new. He stated that there would be no opposition whatever to the organization of the new institution, and that all of the shareholders of the bank then in operation would be repre
sented in the new association. Subsequently, on April 11, he addressed me the following letter:
Cincinnati, April 11, 1822. DEAR SIR: The charter of this bank will expire on the 25th of May, and the stockholders wish to form a new association to commence business as soon as the old one goes out of existence, taking the same name, with the same capital, and in the present place of business.
Our stockholders include many of our leading citizens, namely, Benj. Eggleston, Warren Rawson, Charles Davis, James B. Wilson, Jos. W. Wayne, and many others.
Will you please give us your consent, and also send necessary blank forms! Ang £uggestions you may offer will be gratefully received. Very respectfully,
WM. S. ROWE, Caskier. COMPTROLLER OF THE CURRENCY,
Washington, D. C.
Iashington, April 13, 1822. Sir: I am in receipt of your letter of the 11th instant, relative to the approaching expiration of the corporate existence of your bank, which takes place at close of business on May 25, 18-2.
Under the recent decision of the Attorney-General, there is nothing in the present law to prevent the stockholders of national banking associations the franchises of which expire, or which have gone into voluntary liquidation under sections 5220 and 5221 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, from organizing other national banking associations with the same name.
To avoid difficulties which might ensue were you to wait until the expiration of your franchise at close of business on May 25, 1882, the present association should be put into voluntary liquidation by the vote of stockholders owning two-thirds of the stock, under the sections above mentioned. The vote may be taken with the under. standing that it is to take effect upon some future day, at least thirty days prior to the expiration of the franchise.
A blank form is inclosed for the purpose of notifying this vote to this office, and the manner in which it should be filled up is indicated in pencil.
The form of notice to bill holders and creditors is also printed on the lower portion of this blank with directions for its publication. If the day selected for liquidativa be April 25, the new association can be organized so as to commence business upon the 26th.
Your stockholders should proceed to organize the new bank in precisely the same way as if there had been no Second National Bank of Cincinnati in existence, paying in 50 per cent. of its capital, &c., as required by the national banking law. The minimum capital required for a national bank located in Cincinnati is $200,000. It will be necessary for the stockholders to pay up $100,000 of this sum before the nex bank can be authorized to commence business.
Any of the stockholders, not less than five natural persous, can enter into articles of association for a bank with a capital of $200,000. If any are executors or trustees. evidence of their authority to subscribe for the stock of new bank must accompany the papers. They can then execute an organization certificate and open a new set of books.
The necessary blanks for the organization of a new bank are inclosed herewith. They should be executed in duplicate, and one original in each case sent to this office The articles of association and organization certificate can be executed immediately upon the receipt of this letter and with the oaths of directors, &c., can be filed at once. The certificate of officers to the payment of capital should be filed within about ten days of the liquidation of the old bank, and at the same time, at least, $50,000 in bonds should be deposited to the credit of the new bank. After the new bank commences business its capital can be increased from time to time by the directors under section 5142 of the Revised Statutes, until all the capital of the old bank is transferred to it. Blanks for certifying such increase to this office are inclosed.
In the new articles of association the maximum of increase should be placed at such amount as may be deemed necessary, as it cannot, after it has been once fixed, be afterwards changed.
When the old bank is in liquidation, its depositors can be requested to withdraw their accounts from it by check and reopen them with the new bank. Those vot
wishing to do so must be paid. The assets can then, with consent of the stockholders, be transferred by the board of directors of the old bank to that of the new. The inclosed blank order for circulation can be filled out and sent with the certificate or officers and directors and bonds for deposit. New designs have been determined upon for notes of newly-organized banks, and this order will cover the new plates, which will cost, perhaps, not more than $75 each. The bill for plates will be sent hereafter.
Within a reasonable time after the liquidation of the old bank its circulation can be provided for by a deposit of lawful money through this office with the United States Treasurer. The deposit may be made with the Assistant Treasurer United States in New York, and his certificate of deposit sent to this office.
Prior to liquidation you can, by depositing lawful money in the same manner, release sufficient of the bonds of the old bank now on deposit, so that they may be transferred to the account of the new bank. The amount required for this purpose will be at least $50,000, and the lawful money deposited will be $15,000. Blank forms are inclosed for authorizing the withdrawal and transfer of the bonds, which may be executed and sent with the Assistant Treasurer's certificate and the Treasurer's duplicate receipts for the bonds to be withdrawn. The necessary withdrawal and transfer of $30,000 in bonds may be sent with the certificate of officers and directors to the payment of 50 per cent. of the capital stock of the new bank about ten days previous to the date of liquidation.
The new circulation will not be ready until about thirty days after the new bank is authorized to commence business. All the circulation called for by your order will then be ready, and you can then begin to deposit lawful money to retire the remainder of circulation of old bank and transfer remainder of bonds to the new bank. As fast as these bonds are transferred new circulation will be sent to you.
The difficulties referred to in the third paragraph of this letter are outlined in the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the case of Colby r's. National Bank of Selma (21 Wallace, 609, or Thompson's National Bank cases, pp. 109-112), which takes the ground that a national banking association after the expiration of its franchise has no existence for purpose of liquidation.
In this decision Justice Field says:
"With the forfeiture of its rights, privileges, and franchises, the corporation was necessarily dissolved, as the decree adjudged. Its existence as a legal entity was, therefore, ended, and it was then a defunct institution, and judgment could no more bo rendered against it in a suit previously commenced than judgment could be rendered against a dead man dying pendente lite. This is the rule with respect to all corporations whose chartered existence has come to an end, either by lapse of time or decree of forfeiture, unless by statute pending suits be allowed to proceed to judgment notwithstanding such dissolution.
"The prolongation of the corporate life for this specific purpose as much requires special legislative enactment as does the original creation of the corporation.
"No such enactment is found in the act of Congress authorizing the creation of national banks, and prescribing their powers. Nor is there any provision elsewhere that we are aware of which would prevent the dissolution of a corporation from working the abatement of a suit pending against it at the time." Very respectfully,
Comptroller. W. S. Rowe, Esq.,
Cashier second National Bank, Cincinnati, Ohio. The Second National Bank of Cincinnati, No. 32, went into liquidation on the 25th day of April, 1882, under sections 5220–21 and 22 of the Revised Statutes; it deposited $45,000 of lawful money with the Treasurer of the United States and withdrew $50,000 of United States bonds. It filed in this office articles of association and an organization certificate, as required by section 5136 of the Revised Statutes, also a certificate of officers and directors, showing that the amount of capital stock as provided in section 5140 of the Revised Statutes, had been paid in. The oaths of directors were filed in this city as required by section 5147 of the Revised Statutes. These papers were similar in form to the papers filed by the original bank on May 26, 1863, and such papers as are now required to be placed on file in this office by all associ. ations organizing as national banks. Fifty thousand dollars of United States bonds were also deposited for the purpose of perfecting the or

Martini, SIMONE (also known as SIMONE DI MARTINO, and as SIMONE MEMMI), Sienese painter, b. in Siena, 1283; died either in the same place or at Avignon in 1344 or 1349. This artist is now declared to have been a direct pupil of Duccio, whom he surpassed in the decorative quality of his work. Vasari states that he was a pupil of Giotto, but this statement is refuted by an examination of Simone's works, and also by all the evidence which has been gathered regarding the Sienese school. The earliest of Simone's authentic works is his great fresco in Siena of the enthroned Virgin and Child, painted originally in 1315, and restored by the master himself in 1321, after it had suffered damage from damp. In 1320 he painted an altar-piece for the church of St. Catherine at Pisa, which has now been taken to pieces, and although the greater part is in the Academy at Pisa, two other portions are in other buildings in the same city. In the following year he was at Orvieto, painting an altar-piece for the church of San Dominico which is now preserved in the museum of that city, and then he returned to Siena, where he was busily engaged in 1328 on his splendid portrait of Fogliano, painted in honor of that general's capture of Monteniassi. A little later on we hear of him at Assisi, where he painted a wonderful series of works relating to the life of St. Martin, adorning the chapel of St. Martin in the church of San Francesco. The latter part of his life was passed in Avignon in the service of the papal court then resident in that place, and there he decorated various portions of the cathedral and several chapels and rooms in the papal palace. It was in Avignon that he met Petrarch, and there painted the portrait, so famous in later years, of Madonna Laura.
He is said to have painted a portrait at Avignon of Petrarch himself, commissioned by Pandolfo Malatesta, but if he did this, it was during an earlier visit to Avignon, and respecting it we have not much information. We are only certain concerning his second visit to the place, after being called by Pope Clement VI. The exact date of his funeral is proved by certain Sienese records as August 4, 1344, but the record is not sufficiently clear as to whether his body was transported from Avignon to Siena for burial, or whether he actually died in Siena. There are several of his works in the city of his birth, one at the Louvre, one in Berlin, an exceedingly fine one at Antwerp, and a remarkable signed and dated picture at Liverpool. In the museum at Altenburg there is one of his works, and there are at least three in private collections in America. The portrait of Petrarch attributed to him was sold in 1867 at the Poniatowski sale, and at the same sale there was sold a portrait of Laura, which was undoubtedly his work.

Photographs and text by David Maisel
Introductory essay by Robert Sobieszek
56 pp., 14″x14″ casebound
Published by Nazraeli Press, 2004
"…David Maisel has fashioned an incredibly forceful and convincing documentation of some sublime, terminal vistas that may be located just East of the Sierra Nevadas, but exist somewhere beyond our imaginations and within what (JG) Ballard called 'inner space.' These are not normal landscapes with Albertian vanishing points, orthogonals, and horizon lines. They lack nearly all scale references that might ground the viewer into comprehending their geographical coordinates. There is no foreground, middleground, or background. There is no secure footing from which we perceive the land. There is only the ground seen from a low-flying aircraft, a ground and surface practically synesthetic with malignant colors that nearly taste, incredibly complex textures that one can almost feel, and delicate mineral traceries that appear like organic arteries, tendrils, or ganglia to some geophysical unconscious. Before these scenes, we can only ask, in the words of Samuel Beckett, 'is not this rather the place where one finishes vanishing?"
