"PARK" returns Fresh Kills Landfill to the people whose matter composes its monumental form.
Through a performance of things that are simultaneously coming together and apart, PARK reveals the underbelly of our material world. It translates the cultural and aesthetic ambiguity of this early era of remediation before Fresh Kills fully transitions from wasteland to parkland, and our memory of the landfill vanishes.
The largest landfill in the world when it closed in 2000, Fresh Kills draws immense interest locally, nationally, and globally as it undergoes a 30-year transformation into a park. It is the largest landfill-to-park project ever. Under the auspices of the New York City Departments of Parks and Recreation and Sanitation, PARK has been made and remade at Fresh Kills in three consecutive years: 2010, 2011, and 2012.
Additional performances and installations have taken place at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY; RAW: Geographies Art festival at Reed College in Portland, OR; New York Live Arts Studio Series; Movement Research at Judson Church; Lower Manhattan Cultural Council's LentSpace; and Dixon Place. To date over 14 iterations of this work have been made in theatrical and public spaces.
Numerous talks and workshops about the making of PARK have taken place at UC Berkeley, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, University of Michigan, Temple University, and Sarah Lawrence College, among other places.
PARK collaborators are poet Jennifer Scappettone and architect Seung Jae Lee. Additional collaborators include musicians Tamio Shiraishi and Sean Meehan, and an evolving cast of established and emerging performers that has included, Abby Block, Rebecca Brooks, Rebecca Davis, Ursula Eagly, Megan Flynn, Melissa Guerrero, Belinda He, Aaron Mattocks, Kazu Nakamura, Enrico Wey, and others.

Press Quote:
If the current environmental crisis proves anything, it is how unnatural "nature" actually is. Which is to say, how increasingly what has been perceived as "natural" is contingent on human involvement and error. Kathy Westwater's latest work, PARK ... performs both an unmaking and remaking of worlds in the midst of ecological calamity. –Thom Donovan, The Brooklyn Rail READ MORE
Audience Quotes:
Fresh Kills would have remained, as far as I can see, forever 'invisible' without PARK interspersed with the place in its meso or raw state; not an open wound, and not yet polished parkland. Leaving the mound behind I just kept saying to myself it's safe to use words again and to move again whereas it might not have ever been, again, or before without the complicity of the unspeakable slop pile and the presence and permeation of [Westwater's] work upon. –Robert Kocik
I felt like I was dreaming while I was watching it, so much so that I kept wanting to close my eyes so I wouldn't wake up! I found it very comforting and creepy at the same time – kind of David Lynch mixed with a soft blanket." –Sarah Rosner
PARK is a sponsored project of Artspire/New York Foundation for the Arts. Funding for PARK has been provided by the Puffin Foundation. Commissioning support has been provided by Dance Theater Workshop's Studio Series Commissioning and Creative Residency Program with support from The Ford Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency, the New York State Council on the Arts, the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, and the Jerome Robbins Foundation. Additionally, PARK is made possible through residencies from Freshkills Park's Arts Program, NYC Department of Parks and Recreation; iLAND, Inc.'s, iLAB Residency Program; Lower Manhattan Cultural Council's Swing Space program through a real estate donation from Savanna; Millay Colony for the Arts; The Rockbridge Artist Exchange, a program of the CDCT, in Lexington, VA; and The Field's Artist Residency program, supported by the Tides Foundation. This work began at Djerassi Resident Artists Program.

Hagg Name Meaning
Swedish (Hägg): ornamental name from hägg 'bird cherry' (Prunus padus). This is one of the surnames drawn from the vocabulary of nature and adopted more or less arbitrarily in the 19th century. English: from Old Norse Hagi, which has been identified as a byname from hagr 'deft', 'dextrous', although it could equally well be a habitational name meaning 'the enclosure', see Hagen.

I know a lovely lady.
She happens to write.
And happens to be such a great friend.
And best of all . . . she loves my desert!
I witnessed this incredible time in her life and asked her for a revisit.
I thought it would be such a great blog post. A great moment to share for those interested in mountain biking, Big-Bend-style!
hen asked in 2014 to help with the Chihuahuan Bike Festival yet again. Instead of responding with a grown up "of course", I responded with a rather offended, "No, I want to ride, not check people in." Which was not the wisest thing I ever said, considering I had not ridden in over ten years! Much less through treacherous cactus, gravel and sharp rock covered terrain that not two months before I swore I would never be dumb enough to bike through.
But somehow once I said it? I seemed to not be able to unsay it.
First and foremost in order to mountain bike. One must possess such a contraption. Which I do not. If you will recall my ten years ago statement and my swearing off ever riding this rough country on a bike, you might understand me not having one. So, I borrowed a bike on the day of. We had never met before that day. The bike and I. But by the end of the day. It was my best friend. Well, as soon as I removed the cages of entrapment and received a quick reminder of shifting etc. Hey, it had been awhile.
Knowing I was perhaps a little over my head.
And sinking rapidly.
I chose the shortest trail (11 miles) supposedly mostly on an old road. Smiling, I felt better. I could do this. I had some sense after all, even I could do a stupid road. When I reached the first hill and at the bottom was a gravelly grave of ten different ways to die awaiting me…was the first indication that shortest does not necessarily mean the easiest. Unless it was the easiest way to go out. I should have slammed on my brakes and got off immediately and turned that bike right back around.
I should have.
Any sane person would have.
However, I did not.
As I was sailing to my death much more quickly than I planned I knew then I had to find a way through this first death trap. My mind quickly went over each path I might go and after careful consideration as the hot winds whipped past me, (a little like Sherlock Homes does) I came to the logical conclusion, that none of them were free of peril. So I decided instead to follow someone who was fearless (young) and who had actually done the trail before (handy). Then I knew the only way I was to survive this really bad idea was to commit. So the closer I came to my death. The faster I pedaled.
Whew! And you know what?
It really does come back to you. "Like riding a bike", as the saying goes.
I am not quite certain which emotion or source of adrenaline carried me over each hill and hopping over ditches and skidding sideways only to right myself yet again. Truly I don't think it matters. The main thing was it was such a powerful rush. Me and that younger woman in front of me, were conquers of the elements. The desert was not defeating us. I was actually flying. No matter that sometimes it was not in a good way. I learned something that day.
A hundred year old woman was asked once what her secret to a good long life was. She said do something every day that scares you. And she was right you never feel as alive as when you are scared out of your mind.
So, if I knew what I know now about mountain biking in the desert. Would I have done it? Probably not. But then I would not possess one of my favorite moments. And truth be told when you dare to do a challenge you are afraid of, you become a little "Braver". And that is never a bad thing to be.

Fake Germanwings Crash ALL staged with actors, the dirty version of 9/11 Shanksville
Alpine valley as "crash location" is the ideal spot for the pilot to "go to the toilet" and be "locked out" because naturally cordoned from the public means ability to mock human cattle at will.
The bodies vaporized again, but unlike Shanksville, where absolutely nothing but an empty hole was visible after the first impact, this time the scene was prepared to look like a landfill.
Why? It was revealed from the beginning by Last Prophet.
Truth in plain sight: The crash scene is DELIBERATELY all wrong.
Mocking the human cattle desperately hanging on to their seats, refusing to unlock the seat belts, although the last flight has landed, alias the show is being terminated.
Mockery starts by having nobody in totally controlled media, starting with the aviation "experts", state or ask what a child would:
A planeload of fuel hits a mountain like a bullet, yet there's no smoke, let alone evidence of any fire, burnt wreckage or anything.
The only piece of recognizable wreckage displays the plane's number.
So what happened to the fuel? Did it just dissolve? Or was the plane flying on empty?
Truth in plain sight: the opera singers are on stage to do what they do best
Unlike the previous episode, "Dropped all dead", days earlier in Argentina, this time the "passengers" don't symbolize what's being buried.
The opera singers, ranging from a contralto to a bass-baritone, are on stage to indeed sing a satanic aria while human carcasses are reduced to ashes.
Fake Germanwings crash first impact: satanic celebration of burnt human cattle carcasses at landfill
The last episode of fake crashes, Germanwings at the Alps, serves a multitude of agendas, none of which was not already served ad nauseum in recent acts of illuminati theater with fake mass blood:
- from "genocide of those declaread mentally ill" (example: it was one of the agendas of Sandy Hook, Newton shooting spree, 2012) ...
- to "put an end to human cattle using airliners" (it's one of the agendas of what started 2014 and is still ONGOING, the remake of 9/11 that will end in Jerusalem or at the Vatican, alias the Malaysia airliners series; Taiwan crash, etc).
But it all starts with a satanic celebration, mocking the human cattle beyond a crash scene deliberately all wrong, where only real urban garbage but NOT even one fake body was dropped.
Paradox ruled by the laws of End Times Reductionism: although this time there were no real deaths, it's in fact an upscaled version of the first impact of 9/11, staged to have real people commiting suicide by jumping-off windows above the 80th floor.
Garbage dumped
Intact tyre near only recognizable piece of fuselage after everything else vaporized in a flame inferno
bass-baritone Oleg Bryja:
contralto Maria Radner:
Last Prophet's words immediately after the "crash"
France Germanwings Airbus fake crash staged with * REAL urban GARBAGE * directly from dump to Alps - END of the SHOW
Now you know why the scene was prepared to look like a dump, before the urban garbage was DROPPED.
Argentina March 2015: More than just the fake deaths of the day:
Simulated mass funeral to bury reality shows: french olympians of Survival show Dropped
Illuminati Grand Master stages fake death of ALL DROPPED participants.
To get how important the commandment of "Truth in Plain Sight" is for the illuminati religion:
1986 "Doomed" space shuttle Challenger "crew": recent photos of "dead" "commander" Scobee and "pilot" Michael Smith released 2015
Why illuminati can stage fake crashes using Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, China, Ukraine, Russia, Taiwan, Argentina, not to mention France, Spain, Germany alias EU but NOT in EGYPT
May 2013 - original text unchanged, added updates signaled
Illuminati puppet governments 2015: Russia; USA; EU; Iran; Ukraine; North Korea - Typology
As for Israel, it has the honour of the very last fake airplane crash, yet to come, although the Boeing 777 is missing since March 2014.
As expected it's a remake of the vey first fake plane crash, the best ever and forever:

Beijing in October
Ouch, we have not been writing anything in a while, time to catch up at least somewhat.
In October 2014 we had a business-pleasure trip to China and Japan.
We'll start with China.
Lobby of our hotel in Beijing had this amazing robot statue.
The reason for the Beijing visit was participation in an industry conference. The conference itself did not generate any cool images, but their lunch buffet was pretty colorful.
There were European, American and Chinese cuisine options..
In the end I assembled myself some lunch on these two plates.
At the same time Ksusha went to meet with a doll tailor that we met before at some doll convention in US.
Here's a picture of our little angels in the workshop.
And then Ksusha with her friend went to lunch as well
And then they went for a walk in the huton district, since the weather was unusually nice for Beijing, you could even see the blue sky.
NanLuoGu lane in 7 QianGuLouYuan huton is a historic district from 800 years ago, reflecting Yuan dynasty traditions. Classical fish skeleton design.
I wonder why do they cover tires with those things?
A special budget version of a famous European bicycle anti theft device?
Those above the gate protrusions are a very important indication of the family wealth. The more means the more wealthy family lives there.
Wall panel with an inscription is another way to indicate a wealthy place of living.
And now let's get back to the hotel.
Overall the room size is quite decent, esp. comparing to the typical Japanese room size we are accustomed to.
They also have an interesting lighting system. Depending on your mood you can select several options from the list that would affect which lights would turn on and what color would they be.
Also, mandatory dinner pictures
This is a so called spicy fish in a hot pot.
Some sort of a sweet potato dish that was brought early on.
Also we noticed a very strange sign on top of ATMs nearby. "Cash recycling system"? ;)
These are all the pictures from the Chinese visit.
OH, by the way Ksusha also visited the BJD shops we found in 2010 and it turned out that two of them permanently closed, so only one still remains at the old location.

Ruling in early voting case proves Republicans lied about nature of the lawsuit
A federal district court judge has found that the Ohio law that ended early in-person voting three days before the election for all voters except those but voters serving in the military or living overseas is unconstitutional.
This is big, good news all by itself. But is also serves as another useful illustration of the Romney campaigns willingness to lie and distort the facts, and the media's unwillingness to call them out on it.
What this means:
All voters may cast ballots in person on the final three days before Election Day. This includes the important Saturday and Sunday before the election.
Why is this important:
When the lawsuit was filed in July, we put up a Post on why this was important. We explained that reports had noted estimated that almost one fifth of early votes were cast in the three days prior to the election. We also cited a Dayton Daily News report concluding that the elimination of early voting on the three days before the election would hurt Democrats more than Republicans.
The Legal Summary
The court's decision starts with the premise stated in a 1972 Supreme Court decision that "A citizen has a constitutionally protected right to participate in elections on an equal basis with other citizens in the jurisdiction."
Remember the background: after the 2004 election, Ohio established no-fault absentee voting. This included the ability for all voters to vote absentee and/or cast an in person at the board of elections through the day before Election Day.
In 2011, the Republican led General Assembly and Governor Kasich passed some election law changes. The legislative history is a mess, but for purposes of this case what is important is that the Republicans eliminated the last three days of early in-person voting for all voters, except for military members and their families. The exception for military families was needed to comply with federal law.
(The court made the understatement of the election cycle when it wrote: "The Ohio Revised Code provisions regarding early voting are not a model of legislative clarity. The provisions' language is disorganized and generally confusing, containing numerous deadlines that are not clearly identified.")
The judge referred to Bush v. Gore in deciding that the elimination of voting on the three days just prior to the election violated the Constitution. In Bush v. Gore, the Court said, "The right to vote is protected in more than the initial allocation of the franchise. Equal protection applies as well to the manner of its exercise. Having once granted the right to vote on equal terms, the State may not, by later arbitrary and disparate treatment, value one person's vote over that of another." The court applied this decision to find that the change in the law is unconstitutional because "thousands of voters who would have voted during those three days will not be able to exercise their right to cast a vote in person." The court also considered statistical evidence that "low-income and minority voters are disproportionately affected by the elimination of those voting days."
The court rejected claims that the restrictions are necessary to help over-burdened boards of elections. The court also found that the claim that military voters will actually receive extra time to vote under the current scheme is not supported by the facts. "Unless a serviceperson is 'suddenly deployed' at exactly the right time—enabling in-person voting on Monday—he or she will likely be unable to vote, depending on the local elections board's 'discretion.' That the State cannot justify its interest in foreclosing Ohio voters for one day emphasizes the arbitrary nature of its action."
The court restored the three days because "the State's interests [in eliminating the three days] are insufficiently weighty to justify the injury to" voters.
Husted and Attorney General DeWine have stated that they will appeal. We know why: they are trying to help the GOP by taking away voting opportunities that have predominantly been used by Democrats.
But here's the thing I: Husted is taking a position that will make it harder for people to vote. The job of the Secretary of State should be to make it easier for people to vote.
But here's the thing II: Husted should put the Constitution before partisan advantage. He even swore an oath to uphold the Constitution. (Maybe he would even earn some coveted Plunderbund kudos.)
The Media Coverage
In Treehouse of Horror VI, large advertising comes to life and start to destroy Springfield. (Marge: "These monsters are destroying everything and everyone we hold dear! And you kids should have jackets on.")
Homer has stolen Lard Lad's donut.
Homer: [answering door] Hello? Yes? Oh. [sees that it's Lard Lad] Heh heh. If you're looking for that big donut of yours, um… Flanders has it. Just smash open his house.
[shut door; the sound of giant footsteps recedes]
Homer: He came to life. Good for him!
[Smash! Crumble! Tinkle! Giant footsteps approach; the doorbell rings. Homer opens the door.]
Ned: [running away] Help me, Lord!
Homer: I told you! Flanders has it. Or Moe. Go kill Moe!
Marge: [arriving home in the car] Homer, just give him the donut! Once he has it, that will be the end of all this horror.
Homer: Well…OK. If it'll end horror.
With his donut back, Lard Lad stands triumphantly in his usual pose — but only for a couple of seconds. He uses the donut to smash the Simpsons roof and a nearby car, kicks a barking dog like a football, and rakes his donut along the roof of every house down the block.
Homer: Don't you ever get tired of being wrong all the time?
Marge: Sometimes…
Some of the media has reported this as "a victory for state Democrats and President Obama's campaign in a swing state." This is technically true – the Obama campaign had initiated the lawsuit. However, we resist this simplistic narrative, as it reduces disputes about voting rights to a political fight. This is not about one side or the other trying to gain a small advantage; this is a about a fundamental right.
What is interesting to us is if the mainstream media in Ohio will call out the Romney campaign for their false attacks on the lawsuit. Romney's campaign calling the lawsuit an "outrage" and falsely accused the president of trying to take away early voting rights for members of the military. Eric has a good post on some of those on the right in Ohio who parroted this false claim.
The truth is that the lawsuit was trying to ensure that most voters, including servicemen and women, had the same chance to cast their ballots early. The decision by the court is an unequivocal statement from a judge that the Romney campaign was wrong.
To their credit, the Ohio media has started to call out the Romney-Ryan campaign for its lies. The multiple mis-statements lies in Paul Ryan's speech at the GOP Convention seemed to have forced some of the media to report on this pattern of misrepresentations do their job.
For example, the Cincinnati Enquirer posted an article (originally from USA Today) that said, "Paul Ryan's acceptance speech at the Republican convention contained several false claims and misleading statements." The Cleveland Plain Dealer posted an AP story that begins, "Paul Ryan took some factual shortcuts Wednesday night when he attacked President Barack Obama's policies on Medicare, the economic stimulus and the budget deficit."
What about the Columbus Dispatch? The Dispatch posted the exact same AP story, but engaged in some, um, editing. The story was softened a bit to make it seem more like standard political hyperbole rather than false statements: "The Republican National Convention is drawing to a close with some slippery statements from its presidential ticket. . . Paul Ryan ignored conspicuous parts of his own record on budget cuts, the stimulus and Medicare in his haste to accuse President Barack Obama of taking the economy off the rails." This softening of stories and headlines has become a sad and common practice by the Dispatch.
We mention this because after the lawsuit was filed, the Dispatch published an editorial criticizing the lawsuit. Here is what they wrote:
[I]f successful, the lawsuit ultimately might result only in denying members of the military their three-day voting privilege, and gain nothing for other voters.
If a court agrees with Obama that current law is unfair to the majority of Ohio's voters, state lawmakers might decide to restore fairness by limiting military voting to the Friday before Election Day, to conform with the rules now in place for all other Ohioans. Net result, the majority of Ohio's voters gain no additional voting days and Ohio's military voters lose three extra days of voting that they currently have.
We are pretty sure that nobody in the Obama campaign has suggested that Ohio eliminate early voting for everybody.
Now, here is what the judge wrote: "[T]his Court notes that restoring in-person early voting to all Ohio voters through the Monday before Election Day does not deprive [military] voters from early voting. Instead, and more importantly, it places all Ohio voters on equal standing."
So what we would like to see is some good, hard reporting on the fact that the judge's ruling establishes that Romney lied about the nature of the lawsuit. Of course, we don't expect that to really happen. #DispatchFail.

The Best Orientation for Vegetable Garden Rows
Watering, weeding and fertilizing only go so far when your vegetables don't get enough sun. Most vegetetables need from six to eight hours of sunlight each day -- though leafy greens require slightly less -- and the way you lay out your garden rows can affect their growth. For the most even exposure to the sun, create rows that run from north to south.
Throwing Shade
A north-south orientation allows the sun to shine on one side of the plants in the morning and the other in the afternoon. This is particularly important when it comes to taller plants. When you have rows of tall and short plants, plant the taller plants on the north side of the short plants, trellised plants should also be kept on the north side of the garden. When plants don't grow any taller than the space between the rows, you can use any orientation you like -- they are unlikely to spend much time in the shade.
Exceptions to the Rule
If your garden is on a slope, sun orientation is less important than keeping your soil from ending up at the bottom of the hill. In this case, plant rows so they cut across the slope to avoid erosion, and apply an organic mulch. Crops that rely on the wind for pollination should also be oriented so the rows line up with prevailing winds for the heaviest crops.

President Obama apparently isn't the only one who gets his information about the IRS targeting scandal from the newspaper.
During an exchange today on Capitol Hill between Republican Rep. Ron DeSantis and Deputy Attorney General James Cole about the IRS targeting of conservatives, Cole said he found out about Lois Lerner's "lost" emails through news reports.
DeSantis: "Mr. Cole, we learned in Congress on June 13th, 2014 that two years-worth of Lois Lerner's emails were missing—the IRS would not produce those. When did the Justice Department learn of that fact?"
Cole: "I think we learned about it after that from the press accounts that were in the paper following the IRS' notification to the Congress."
At best the Department of Justice isn't taking the investigation into IRS targeting seriously. At worst DOJ officials are using the "investigation" to stonewall and cover-up wrong doing. After all, Lois Lerner was working with DOJ officials to build a criminal case against tea party groups.
According to new IRS emails obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request from Judicial Watch, former head of tax exempt groups at the IRS Lois Lerner was in contact with the Department of Justice in May 2013 about whether tax exempt groups could be criminally prosecuted for "lying" about political activity.
President of True the Vote Catherine Engelbrecht, who was target by the IRS, told WMAL radio host Larry O'Connor earlier this week the FBI has not contacted her to ask questions for their investigation.
UPDATE: For good measure.

Hi! I am accepted into 3 PhD programs in business and need your advice on which to attend.
1. Lousiana State U ( OB/strategic management, you can choose either of them according to your interest)
2. U of Houston ( you can choose the Micro/Macro OB/strategic management), requirement: independent research project that starts from year 1, preliminary exam in year 1, qualification exam in year 2
3. Oklahoma State U , you are required to finish 1st and 2nd year papers by working with the faculty on their projects. students' responsibility is to write the papers. Concerns: 1. I am not sure if I am able to write the papers, since I don't even know how to do the research without the training. 2. even if you are the co-author, I dont think you would be the 1st author, so it actually doesn't matter a lot? And it doesn't necessarily mean the paper could be published? 3. it might take up too much of your time for study and coursework should be the first priority?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

DETROIT (WWJ) – Could a plea deal be in the works for a co-defendant in the Kwame Kilpatrick corruption case?
Former Water and Sewerage Department Director Victor Mercado and his attorneys were excused Wednesday morning from a federal courtroom in Detroit, but remained at the courthouse reviewing documents.
As the trial continued, there was some unofficial chatter that an agreement with prosecutors could be in the works.
WWJ Legal Analyst and Talk Radio 1270 host Charlie Langton said, if there is a deal discussion, Mercado will want one big question answered: "How much prison time am I gonna get? I think that he's gonna have to get something, and, second of all, will he have to testify against Kwame Kilpatrick or (city contractor) Bobby Ferguson?"
Added Langton, "Victor Mercado (was) head of the water department The water department, in this particular case, was the enterprise, so to speak, that got a lot of money for contracts — most of which went to Bobby Ferguson."
Langton said there were some estimates that doing work for the water department allowed Ferguson to get $120 million. "The potential money that Ferguson, and only Ferguson, got from the water department is extraordinary.
"Now, the government would want Victor Mercado to say, yes, come and talk with us, say that Bobby Ferguson had to get the contract and you're good to go," Langton said. "For that, we'll give you a deal — maybe no jail time, maybe a little, but I do think that he's going to have to do something because he was part of this conspiracy from day one. That's what the government said in the indictment."
Kilpatrick, his father Bernard, Ferguson and Mercado are all charged with fraud, bribery, tax crimes and a racketeering conspiracy. All four defendants have pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Federal prosecutors and defense attorneys questioned witnesses on Wednesday about various payments to the Kilpatrick Civic Fund.
Testimony revealed that money from the fund was used to pay for a new apartment where the ex-Mayor stayed after he was booted out of office in 2008. Kilpatrick stayed at the Park Shelton apartment before he went to jail.
It was also revealed Wednesday that checks from the civic fund were also used to send Kilpatrick's kids to pre-school. Defense attorneys argue that the money was used to educate voters, but prosecutors disagree, saying that Kilpatrick, his relatives and friends used money from the fund for personal and political gain.
The Kilpatricks are accused of shaking down contractors who wanted business or favors from Detroit city hall. The government claims Kilpatrick received hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash through bribery, extortion and other methods when he was mayor, from 2002 to fall 2008.
Kilpatrick resigned from office amid an unrelated text-messaging scandal and served 14 months in prison for violating probation in that case. He now lives in Grand Prairie, Texas.

50 Years of Scientific Instruments CollaborationScientific Instruments, Inc. has been working with its customers across diverse industries to provide superior quality products and solutions for cryogenic temperature measurement and control. We also work with our industry partners, extending our capabilities to a wide range of measurement facilities. If we don't have something "off-the-shelf" to satisfy your requirements, we will work with you to develop the solution you need to realize the full potential of your application.
The initial products developed and manufactured by Scientific Instruments were cryogenic temperature sensors including Germanium Resistance thermometers and Silicon Diodes. These temperature sensing devices created opportunities in the aerospace, industrial and laboratory research industries. Of particular note is the fact that SII supplied a number of Germanium Resistance thermometers that were installed into Helium and Hydrogen systems on the Apollo space craft and at the end of the 1960's flew on lunar landing missions.
The company presently is active in seven distinct product areas, although separate; these products are "synergistic" as they are technologically related to temperature and liquid level measurement and control. With one exception, all product areas supported by Scientific Instruments are related to cryogenic applications, meaning extremely low temperatures, typically in range of 0.05K to 300.0K (-462.0F to +250.0F).
These products include cryogenic temperature sensors, cryogenic temperature instruments (controllers/monitors), liquid natural gas- level, temperature & density gauge (LTD), Raman Spectroscopy (RGAS) for LNG, aerospace temperature probes, aircraft temperature probes, and industrial probes.

A celebrity telethon held for hurricane relief raised $14 million in an hour on Tuesday evening.
The star-studded "Hand in Hand: A Benefit for Hurricane Relief" event, which was televised live, saw performances, tributes and heartfelt messages delivered from some of the biggest names in entertainment who came together to raise money for victims of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
According to NBC News, celebrities including Beyonce, Justin Bieber, George Clooney and Oprah Winfrey were among those participating in the hourlong telethon, ultimately raising over $14 million for those in need.
During the broadcast, Justin Bieber stood with religious leaders to pray for the victims affected by the destructive storms.
He also appealed to viewers to show their support, saying "we want you to be a part of this and donate whatever you can."
Beyonce, who appeared in a recorded message, spoke about the dire situation left behind by Harvey.
"Just when you think you couldn't possibly get worse, natural disasters take precious life, do massive damage and forever change lives, leaving behind contaminated water, flooded hospitals, schools and nursing homes," she said.
The chart-topping pop star stressed that countless families were now homeless, adding that "it doesn't matter if you're from Third Ward or River Oaks, we're all in this together."
The New York Daily News noted that Apple had donated $5 million to the cause while Albertsons Cos. and Merck each donated an additional $1 million.
ABC News reported that the event, which was initially meant to raise funds for victims of Hurricane Harvey in Texas, was later extended to reach out to the victims of Irma as well.

ment, for illustration, for ornament, for sentiment, or any other purpose."
The scientific instruction, which is now almost universally given as to the sources and development of our own language, makes it familiar knowledge that the Anglo-Saxon (which was the product of numerous kindred dialects brought here by Teutonic and Scandinavian warriors) is the primary element of our modern English tongue. The other chief element is generally called the Latin, though a very great part of it came to us not immediately from the Latin, but from the French and the Italian. Of these elements the Anglo-Saxon is not only the first in essential and etymological importance, but it is incomparably the best; and it will always predominate in a good style. Simple, short, yet full of meaning and power, the homely old English words go straight to the heart, and their rhythm is sweetest music to the ear. But it is absurd to deny the advantages which our large command of words drawn from other modern tongues, and from the classics, offers to the author, and still more to the speaker. The best rule is to use always AngloSaxon words, where they sufficiently express your meaning, and if the sentence made up from them is not likely to jar on the hearers as uncouth, or to give offence as affected and grotesque. If a word, or a number of words of Latin origin, will convey your ideas more readily, more precisely, and more fully-if by the introduction of such words an " Invenusta repetitio" can be avoided—if by means of them you can gain the advantage of repeating an argument while your tautology is disguised—if you can even so improve the general melody of your sentences; why, use the Latin department of the language freely, and do not slight the bounteous variety which the affluence of modern English places at your disposal.
Closely connected with the subject of forming a style, in which Anglo-Saxon words are much more used than Latin, is the subject of general length of sentences. As a rule, you
will find that Anglo-Saxon words, when little mixed with others, arrange themselves naturally in shorter groups, than is the case when a great proportion of words of Latin origin are employed by the composer. And, as a rule, the shortsentence style is far more telling than is the style, which arrays itself continually or principally in lengthy and elaborate periods. When, as is often the case, a Latinized system of Syntax is super-imposed, things are made worse. It is, indeed, almost distressing to a hearer to have to listen to copious strings of accumulated, but inter-dependent propositions, exceptions, parentheses, illustrations, and contrasts, the purport of which is not disclosed till the very end of the bewildering coil. It is as bad as reading German prose. The only instance that I know of a great English orator conspicuous for the frequent length of his periods, is the younger Pitt. But, in his case, the embarrassing effect of the " long drawing out" of the linked phrases is mitigated by the speaker's felicitous choice of words, the perfect accuracy of his grammar, and the unexceptionable force of the dialectic. A style more dignified than usual suited the somewhat imperious position, which Pitt assumed and maintained throughout his Parliamentary career: and, even as to him, we feel when we study his speeches that he would have been more effective if more frequently laconic. But, unquestionably, brevity of sentences, like the preference of Anglo-Saxon words, may be pushed too far. The Rhetorician must speak so as to please, if he would speak so as to win. It was early observed by the ancient masters of the art that Rhetoric requires variety of style, and that the graceful and impressive speaker must be able not only to "pack thoughts closely and symmetrically," but " to bring them out roundly and harmoniously."*
* Such seems to me to be the full meaning of the celebrated phrase in which Dionysius Halicarnassensis describes the style of Lysias-'H ovotpédovoa tà vopata kùi otpoyyúlws eupépovoa dées. It is quoted, with comments, by Professor Jebb in his late admirable work on the Attic Orators.
I will next offer some remarks on the English authors, whom it is most beneficial to study earnestly and repeatedly for the sake of acquisition or improvement of style. I shall elsewhere advert to the extant speeches of orators of our own and other nations, which the student should use as models in all departments and for all purposes of Rhetoric. At present, I must deal chiefly with the topic of language; although it is impossible to disconnect that topic from the consideration of how far each author aids us in forensic training by reason of the nature of his thoughts, as well as by his manner of expressing them.
For manly, vigorous diction, our Elizabethan dramatists
Professor Jobb, in the same work (vol. i., p. 32), has some remarks which I gladly copy, on the introduction by the Attic Rhetoricians of the elaborate composition of " that moro artistio period, of which the several parts resemble the mutually supporting stones of a vaulted roof, and which leads the ear by a smooth curve to a happy finish," (p. 35), instead of the more rough, running sentences of the first prose writers. He says, "It is perhaps impossible to find English terms, which shall givo all the clearness of the Greek contrast between περιοδική and έιρομένη λέξις: The " running" style, ας ειρομένη expresses, is that in which the ideas are merely strung together, like beads, in the order in which they naturally present themselves to the mind. Its characteristic is simple continuity. The characteristio of the "periodio" style is that each sentence "comes round" upon itself so as to form & separate symmetrical whole. The running style may be represented by a straight line, which may be cut sbort at any point, or prolonged to any point: the periodic style is a system of independent circles. The period may be formed, either, so to say, in ono piece, or of several members (küla membra), as a hoop may be made either of a single lath bent round, or of segments fitted together. It was a maxim of the late Greek Rhetoric that, for the sake of simplicity and strength, a perioit should not consist of more than four of these members or segments; Roman rhetorio allowed a greater number. Aristotle says, " that a Period must be of a size to be taken in at a glance."
This last citation is from Aristotle's "Rhetoric," iii. 3. It is well to road on the subject of Periodic construction Mr. Cope's comments on Aristotle's " Rhetoric," p. 306-316. He refers appropriately to our English writers, Harrie, " Philosophical Inquiries," Pt. 2, ch. 4, to the excellent observations on the Period in Campbell's " Philosophy of Rhetoric," Book iii, c. 3, R. 3, and to Archbishop Wbately's Essay on Rhetoric in the "Encyclopædia Metro. politana," ch. iii. p. 286, &c. See also the small separate edition of Whately's "Rhetoric," p, 205.
are unrivalled ;* and, though an orator does not want to declaim either rhymed or blank verse, there is very much affinity between Rhetoric and Poetry, especially Dramatic Poetry: inasmuch as the special functions of Dramatic Poetry are to embody and to animate the thoughts, the fancies, the feelings, and the passions of the heart in all varieties of human life.
* Many of the writere, whom we commonly speak of as " Elizabethan," produced their best works during the reign of Elizabeth's successor ; and some did not publish anything prior to that time. But still it is accurate to speak of them as " Elizabethan :" for they had been educated among the men, and with the feelings, of the three glorious decades that closed the sixteenth century. The mental and moral impulses, which were called into action during the life of the Great Queen, did not lose their force when she ceased to exist.
Several modern critics have discussed the causes which developed and influenced the literature of that marvellous epoch. No one, to my mind, has written on them better than Hazlitt, in his " Lectures on the Elizabethan Dramatists," which were very popular thirty or forty years ago, but now seem to have dropped into unmerited neglect. Hazlitt gives as "the causes which moulded and stamped the poetry of the Elizabethan era : first, the recent Reformation. This event agitated the mass of accumulated prejudices throughout Europe. ... The war and clashing of opinions, loosened from their accustomed hold, might be heard like the noise of an angry sea, and has never yet subsided. .... Men's brains were busy, their spirits stirring, their hearts full, and their hands not idle. Their eyes were opened to expect the greatest things, and their ears burned with curiosity and zeal to know tho trnth, in order that the truth might make them free." .
"The translation of the Bible was the chief engine in the great work. It threw open the rich treasures of religion and of morality. It revealed the visions of the Prophets, and conveyed the lessons of inspired teachers to the meanost of the people. It gave them a common interest in the common cause. Their hearts barned within them, as they read.
" We perceive in the history of this period a nervous masculine intellect: no levity, no feebleness, no indifference. There is a gravity approaching to piety, & seriousness of impression, a conscientious severity of arzament, an habitual fervour and enthusiasm in their mode of handling almost every subject." Hazlit then gives proofs of the influence exerted in the same age over Englishmen by the revived study of the classics, and by familiarity with the masterpieces of modern Italian literature. He adds, that " of the time that we are considering, it might be said without much extravagance that every breath that blew, every wave that rolled to our shores, brought with it some accession to our knowledge, which was engrafted on the national genius." To all this, we are to add the daring boldness and the activity then given to men's courage and imagination by the discoveries of the New World, and of its marvels; and, above all, the ennobling influence of England's successful resistance to the invasive tyranny of Spain. This told on our literature, as the successful resistance of Athens to the Persians told on the literature of the Periclean age.
One name stands out pre-eminent in our dramatic literature. It is superfluous to recommend the study of Shakespeare to a lawyer, for he must have Shakespeare (as the saying is) at his fingers' ends, unless he would disgrace himself by obvious inferiority to all, whom he meets in court and elsewhere, who have any pretensions to be called educated men. A quotation from Shakespeare never sounds pedantic to English ears, and it is always discreditable not to recognise it. But many quote him, who do not quote accurately, or appropriately; and you may gain an immense advantage over an adversary by detecting and exposing a blunder as to the wording of Shakespeare's lines, or as to the Dramatis Persona in whose mouth the words were placed. Often also you may retort with crushing effect by adding another speech from the same dialogue, in which Shakespeare makes another character of the play confute or ridicule the sentiment expressed in the passage just repeated by your opponent. Or you may point out that the passage, though fair-sounding in itself, is placed by Shakespeare in the mouth of a vile and villainous personage. Iago's eulogy on the worth of a good name supplies an instance of what I mean. But all these controversial advantages of a perfect knowledge of Shakespeare are small in comparison with the intellectual benefit of imbuing yourself, as far as possible, with the spirit of the greatest master and of the most vivid pourtrayer in all literature, ancient or modern, of the passions and feelings of the human heart in every region, in every time, in every mood, and every variety of circumstance, station, rank, and age.
The other Elizabethan dramatists are dwarfed by compari. son with Shakespeare, as the presence of Achilles dwarfs the other Homeric heroes of the Iliad. But they form a bright and glorious band, such as any nation might be proud of, even if she could not point to a few single stars of still superior magnitude. They well repay attentive study. But I am bound to remember that I am advising men who study

The Redeemer Church is a member of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church. This name may sound strange to you, and I understand why.
When you saw the word 'orthodox' you may have brought to mind the Greek or Russian Orthodox Churches, which conjured up images of robed priests, medieval icons, burning incense, and an incomprehensible liturgy. Similarly the word 'Presbyterian' is often associated with the Presbyterian Church (USA), which denomination is known for its weak stance on Biblical truth. If this were what 'Orthodox Presbyterian' referred to it would be a church that I would not want anything to do with.
Why the name?
The job of an orthodontist is to straighten your teeth. The prefix 'ortho' originates from the Greek language and it means 'straight.' 'Dox' comes from a Greek word for 'thinking.' For us, the word 'orthodox' does not mean following dead traditionalism, but 'straight thinking' that comes from straight teaching from the Bible.
'Presbyterian' refers to the government of the church. Ministers and elders elected by the people of a local congregation govern that congregation. The ministers and elders in a region will gather several times a year to take care of matters that are of common concern (such as planting new churches and examining and ordaining men for the pastoral ministry). Representative elders from all of these regions gather annually to deliberate and give advice on matters that affect the whole church. In a truly Presbyterian church, therefore, there is no higherarchy, but there is mutual accountability.
Our Character
The OPC does not stand for 'Only Perfect Church.' It is not a perfect church; no church is. But we believe that the OPC strives to understand and obey the will of God revealed in Scripture.
The OPC is committed to the Great Commission and ambitiously plants new churches at home and all over the world and recently has experienced remarkable growth. It also demonstrates compassion for the poor and for victims of catastrophes such as floods and earthquakes.
Although the OPC is not large by many standards, it is not isolated the rest of Christ's church. It engages in ecumenical discussions with other biblically Reformed churches in order to perfect the unity that Christ desires for his people.
We welcome you to visit our congregation and learn more about the work that God is doing through the OPC.

The "third business" that Palm has been working on was confirmed this week by CEO Ed Colligan in response to a question from its former VP of product planning Michael Mace. Several sites reporting on it keep bringing up this clue co-founder Jeff Hawkins left during an interview with the Portland Business Journal in 2005:
I always think of mobile computing as personal computing. This long-term vision has led us through everything — first the organizers and now through the smart phone space. It's like everything a personal computer is. Continue down that path. What are the implications of a world where everyone has a super high-speed Internet connection in their pocket and many gigabytes of storage, super-fast processors, audio, visual and multimedia? What are the consequences of that? How will that change computing when you have all that stuff available to you all the time? I try to think into the future. That's how we come up with new products. So I'm not going to tell you what it is, but it's following the consequences of mobile computing.
I originally thought that the third product would be something in the education space, perhaps a modern-day eMate; in fact, that's what I thought Handspring would do when it was in stealth mode (boy, was I disappointed!). In any case, though, that ground is somewhat staked out and the big PC guys have already laid claim to most school districts convinced that the way we will use technology 20 years from now will look anything like it does today
So, given that and the above quote as well as Hawkins' interest in human and artificial intelligence as well as his history in personal organization, I'll throw in my guess that it's a life recorder, perhaps a manifestation of one subject of Microsoft Research, which the group describes as "a fulfillment of Vannevar Bush's 1945 Memex vision." Trying to build such a thing would require everything that Hawkins cites — a true "LifeDrive" — or perhaps some sort of massive mesh network.

Reader comment on item: Sudden Jihad or "Inordinate Stress" at Ft. Hood?
Submitted by nancy abrams (United States), Nov 9, 2009 at 16:09
Thank you for your points. I can't believe the apologetics coming out in full force. Of course, no one points out that when a non-muslim of whatever religion commits suicide he doesn't take others with him.
