was
inferior to the performances
of the majority of its antagonists.
But this shortcoming was
partly compensated for
by its tractability and its sturdiness,
which enabled to withstand
a considerable amount
of punishment.
It was amenable to adaptation,
and it was available
when most sorely needed.
To understand the requirements
which gave birth to the P-40,
it is necessary to
appreciate the United States'
strategic thinking in the early '30s.
Between the two world wars,
fighter development in the USA
fell behind international standards,
principally because of the
United States Army Air Corps'
preoccupation with the long-range bomber,
which had prior claim on a
limited air appropriations.
At that time, there was a
very slim performance margin
between a bomber and a fighter.
And it was believed that
the defensive armament
of the larger aircraft would
prove more than a match
for the destructive
ability of the smaller.
When the requirements for
the P-40 were formulated,
no prospect of high altitude
enemy attack against theUSA
was envisaged, so that coastal
defense and ground attack
were the main tasks indicated.
Low altitude flying qualities
and rugged construction
therefore received priority.
And, in fact, the P-40 was
subsequently to prove itself
an excellent ground attack weapon.
But, at the time of the
Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor,
this fighter was already
approaching obsolescence,
despite having been in production
for less than two years.
Nevertheless, between 1940 and 1944,
when acceptances were terminated,
a total of 13,738 P-40 fighters
were delivered to the USAAF,
the peak number in service
being 2,499 in April, 1944.

Sweetheart of Okinawa to the
United States Marine Corps,
whistling death to the
Japanese, and bent-winged bird
to the American ground
forces that sheltered
under the massive umbrella of ordnance,
which it delivered in the Pacific,
the Corsair was universally acknowledged
to be the finest naval fighter
of the Second World War.

the turn-of-the-century in an
eighteenth-century remote
Swedish manor country house that has the striking
blood red interior of
a Las Vegas whorehouse. The women occupants all wear
formal white
dresses
except after the death of the dying sister, when they
change to black
dresses.
The unmarried thirtysomething Agnes (Harriet
Andersson) has led an
empty
life and lives alone with Anna (Kari Sylwan), her
loyal peasant
housekeeper
of the last twelve years, and is bedridden and is
dying of cancer while
riddled with unbearable pain causing her to frequently
scream out in
agony.
She's visited by her two estranged sisters; the oldest
Karin (Ingrid
Thulin)
is an embittered, sexually repressed, and domineering
bitchy woman who
is married to a mean-spirited diplomat (Georg
Årlin) she hates,
and
has only come as a sense of duty. The youngest sister,
the beautiful
but
unfeeling, sexually obsessed, and self-absorbed
childlike Maria (Liv
Ullmann),
is married to the lost soul businessman Joakim
(Henning Moritzen).
The shallow and indecisive Maria refuses tocome to
the aid
of her
husband when he stabs himself because of her
infidelity; he survives
and
stays with her in this loveless marriage. Maria had an
affair with the
local doctor (Erland Josephson) she seduced when he
came over to treat
Anna's young daughter, who later died. In the film's
most ghastly
scene,
Karin mutilates herself with a shard of glass in her
vagina and then
insanely
smiles at her husband as she smears the blood on her
face.
Anna, acting like a Virgin Mary figure, comforts the
agonizing Agnes
with her breasts when she cries out in pain, which
also hints that they
could possibly be lovers. Her warmhearted response to
suffering is
genuine,
and is compared with the sisters' cold and insincere
responses and
organized
religion's cold and calculated responses to Agnes's
suffering. Bergman
showed that the deceptive lives we lead and our blind
acceptance of
society
in order to ensure public approval cannot be compared
favorably with

of saying I had sex with his mum.
To act the line properly,
you don't just need to know
what all the words refer to.
It's about what you do when you say it.
Are you threatening him, persuading him,
reassuring him, tempting him?
The question a director will
sometimes ask their actor is,
"What action are you playing?"
And Wittgenstein said, yeah,
language is just like that.
The meaning of a word like gay or lesbian,
queer or trans, isn't its definition.
It's how it's used in what
he called a language game,
and language games can change.
In the 16th century,
people used the word queer
to just mean weird or odd.
There's that line in the
Legend of the Lambton Worm,
"He catched a fish upon his heuk he thought
looked vary queer," which
just means the fish
looked unusual to him, rather than it had
a septum piercing and anon display,"
said The Washington Post in 1993,
though at least in most zoos
you aren't also encouraged
to find the animals fuckable.
This was happening just one year after
a lesbian woman in Oregon
was burned to death
in a hate crime, and the government
was still largely
ignoring the AIDS crisis.
In the same year as
that Vanity Fair issue,
a transgender man named
Brandon Teena was murdered
in Nebraska, along with
two of his friends.

living.
The Western zones had a way
better standard of living,
because first of all,
they had all the industry.
East Germany was very rural.
Secondly, they were profiting
from the Marshall Plan, where
the eastern part was still
bleeding out and paying
war reparations to Russia.
And thirdly, the
economics was built
on private entrepreneurship
in the west.
Within the east, it
was all centralized
and not really motivational.
But there were other reasons.
There was the hindrance
or the hostility
against private business.
There was the hostility
against private land owning.
There was political oppression.
There was hostilities
against religions.
There were hostilities
against people
that had too big
a mouth, and lived
too close to strategic areas,
and they were relocated.
So they tried to stop the
exodus that would have certainly
been the death of the hopes for
the Communist society in East
Germany.
So they built the Wall.
And this building of
the Wall was directly
ordered from Moscow.
So there was no doubt
in historythat this
is-- the fear of East
Germany falling means
the entire Russian
empire falling in Europe.
But that was the
history before the Wall.
The Wall was just the last piece
of closing the Iron Curtain.
There was a lot before.
There was the Berlin blockage
and the famous airlift,
obviously.
There was the founding of
the two German states--
Western Germany
found itself first,
trying to represent the
entirety of Germany.
And then East Germans said no.
We are our own state.
And they formed a
little later-- they
formed on the 7th
of October, where
West Germany was found
in July, I guess.
And then you had a long,
long land border of I
think over 1,100 miles
between both Germanys.
And they were fortified
already in the '50s.
And already in the '50s,
in the Operation Vermin,
everybody who was suspicious and
lived too close to the border,
were forcefully relocated.

area of about 15 miles

projects are intended

Hank Millon's life and work was
dedicated to the history
of early modern architecture
in Italy, especially in Rome
and Turin.
At the Gallery, his research
developed into two
major exhibitions
of architectural models,
"Italian Renaissance
Architecture from Brunelleschi
to Michelangelo"
and "The Triumph of the Baroque:
Architecture in Europe
1600-1750."
The Moche and Olmec volumes have
already been mentioned,
but I just wanted to point out
that they came about because
of the presence of Joanne
Pillsbury as assistant dean
at the Center.
Now Curator of Ancient American
Art at the Met, Joanne Pillsbury
devoted her research time here
to the production of "The Guide
to Documentary Sources
for Andean Studies 1530-1900."
This three-volume text, which
you see on the left in English,
appeared in 2008, almost
a decade after she left
the Gallery for the University
of East Anglia, Dumbarton Oaks,
and the Getty,
but CASVA provided
administrative support
throughout, as we did
for the translation
into Spanish
ofthese same volumes, which
appeared in Peru in 2016.
CASVA's interest in supporting
work
on the ancient and modern
Americas was reflected
in another initiative
in the late 20th century
to bring researchers
from Mexico, Central and South
America,
and the Caribbean to North
American institutions,
including the Gallery.
This fellowship program was
sponsored by ARIAH,
the Association of Research
Institutes
in Art History, of which CASVA
was a founding member.
In the past, before art history
became quite so thoroughly
global, CASVA sponsored
several such initiatives
independently, including one
to encourage fellows to apply
from China and from India,
and in fact, we continue
to encourage these relationships
with emerging Chinese scholars.
The present associate deans are
also engaged in major projects
that have led to publications.
Therese O'Malley completed
her volume-- now,

Europe,
that when the RAF went
to war in September 1939,
it soon discovered that the
Blenin was not the weapon
that it had supposed.
Its shortcomings soon
manifested themselves
in the hard school of aerial combat.
It was to prove woefully
vulnerable to fighter attack.
It was to be found deficient
in both defensive armament
and armor.
Nevertheless it was to bear the brunt
of much of the fighting
on every front to which
the RAF was committed
for the first three years
of the second World War.
Despite its limitations it
was to serve valorously.
(dramatic music)
A parallel might be
drawn between the Blenin
and the Curtis P40.
Like the American fighter
it was praised and abused,
lauded and vilified,
but it was all that was
available and however divergent were views
of the effectiveness of
the Blenin as a weapon,
it was one of the truly
historic aircraft at the war.
The short Sterling was
not merely the first
of theRoyal Air Force
true heavies of the second
World War it was the only
British four engine bomber
designed from the outset
to take four power plants,
to see operational service
during the conflict.
The Lancaster and Halifax
having both stemmed from
twin engine designs.
(drum music)
Carrying bomb loads far
greater than any previously
contemplated, the Sterling
proved one of the most
important landmarks in
the history of the RAF.
Yet the official history
of the RAF and the second
World War was to refer to the
Sterling as a disappointment.
(drum music)
In consequence, its career as a first line
heavy bomber was relatively brief.
Nevertheless, as the
RAFs four engine heavy
of the second Word War,
the Sterling occupied
a particularly important
place in the history
of that air arm.
The Avro Manchester, the
predecessor of the Lancaster
was not a successful bomber.
It proved to be unreliable
and underpowered.
Only 209 were built and
production of the type
lasted barely a year.

Australia.
Many aboriginal people from
the missions and settlements
visited during the expedition
joined that war effort
on behalf of a country
which had barely
recognized their humanity
until that point.
In some sense, the
war was a catalyst
for social action on
behalf of Aboriginal people
who had gone out and seen
the world, with social reform
movements gathering pace
during the 1940s and 1950s,
leading both to the
Land Rights Movement,
and for the 1967 referendum,
which was overwhelmingly
passed, bestowing full
citizenship rights
on Aboriginal people,
and the beginnings
of a broader
appreciation in European
Society of the damage caused to
Aboriginal culture and society.
I'm hoping that my research
will cast light on the role
that the Adelaide-Harvard
expedition played
in that history, but one of
its legacies is already clear.
In 1987, with the full support
of Tindale and Birdsell,
by then approaching their 90s,
the South Australia Museum
founded the Aboriginal
Family History Project,
now running for
more than 30 years,
principally upon the
genealogies andportrait
photographs gathered during
the expedition and its sequel,
which was another
expedition across Australia
between Tindale and
Birdsell, undertaken
by Tindale and Birdsell, the
1952 to '54 UCLA-Adelaide
expedition, which revisited
some of the '38, '39 stations,
but concentrated on
the missions and cattle
stations of Northwestern
Australia, filling in the map
and enabling Tindale to pursue
his mapping project as well.
And this family history project
is staffed by descendants
of individuals encountered by
Tindale and Birdsell during
the '38, '39 expedition,
and has recently resulted
in a partnership
with the University
of Adelaide's ancient
DNA laboratory,
working with descendants who
have almost unanimously--
and these decisions are
made at essentially,
town hall meetings, where
all views are expressed.
But overwhelmingly, there's
been support for and approval
for the research, which is
based on the hair samples
that Tindale and
Birdsell obtained
during the '38, '39 expedition.
These samples were snipped
off and put into envelopes
and labeled by Dorothy
or Bea, I would imagine,

the Yankees
Came, and it's all about the
process of Union occupation of
parts of the South.
He goes in and studies towns in
Tennessee and towns in northern
Georgia and towns in northern
Virginia,
and tries to understand,
so what happened when an area
of the South,
an area of the Confederacy,
came under Union control?
And he divides the South
usefully here;
and it's very useful in
understanding how emancipation
actually happened on the ground
as a human, sometimes brutal,
ugly, chaotic,
painful process.
He divides the South into what
he calls three regions:
one, the "Confederate
frontier";
the second he calls "no-man's
land";
and the third he calls
"garrisoned towns."
Now that's pretty easy to
understand.
If you think of--just take
Tennessee, up there in the
middle.
By 1862 Nashville became a--it
was the capital of Tennessee--it
became a garrisoned Union town;
that is, it's occupied,
its resources,
its railroad,
its everything,
were taken over by the Union
forces.
And then there's the so called
no-man's land,
the region saybetween a
Nashville and where the
Confederate forces were,
the land between the armies,
which of course fluctuated a
great deal back and forth.
And then lastly he calls it the
Confederate frontier,
or at times he'll call it the
Confederate hinterland,
that is the land behind the
lines that was never taken by
Union forces,
the land behind the lines where
Confederate resources,
relatively speaking,
remained intact.
They're still producing cotton
crops, in the summer of '64 and
the fall of '64,
and they're still planting in
the whole southern half of
Georgia and the whole southern
half of Alabama,
by and large,
right on into 1865.
But where you happen to be
geographically was the first
important factor of where and
how emancipation might occur,
in proximity particularly to
the armies.
Now, a second factor that would
determine when and if slaves
would be free was the character
of the slave society in any
given region.
Were they in a densely
populated slave region | {
"pile_set_name": [

} | 56,970,740 |
in Cyprus Hill
Cemetery in Brooklyn,
New York.
The point of all of that is
that these slaves escaping were
real people, with real names,
real family,
real hopes and desires.
And those who--some of those
who survived told us what it
meant.
Now, the war,
of course, raged on,
and at the end of the day--this
is a photograph,
by the way, taken in 1862,
I believe, in Virginia.
The photographer simply called
it "A Group of Contrabands."
The war raged on.
And of course in the spring of
1863 the Union armies will
invade Virginia again.
I'll come back to lots of this
after the break when we get back
to the military history and try
to explain how the Union side
won this war.
They'll fight a horrible battle
at a place called
Chancellorsville,
near Fredericksburg in May of
1863,
which will be another smashing
victory by Robert E.
Lee and Stonewall Jackson,
over a Union Army commanded by
Joseph Hooker.
It willgive Lee his occasion
for his second invasion of the
North, the riskiest of all,
which will lead him up through
northern Virginia,
across into Maryland,
and eventually all the way in
to Pennsylvania,
and will lead to the fateful
battle at Gettysburg,
the first three days of July,
1863;
arguably the most important
military turning point of the
war.
But it is in those same first
six and seven months of 1863
that this war has now been
transformed into a war of
unconditional surrender,
a war of all out attempt,
at least, all out mobilization
at home, and conquest in the
South.
It is during this period that
black soldiers are being
recruited.
The 54^(th) Massachusetts,
the famous regiment from
Massachusetts about which the
movie Glory was made,
was recruited that winter,
and spring, of course,
and marched off to South
Carolina to its fate in May of
1863.

the last show, some from as
far away as Austria.
All the major manufacturers
and brands were
well represented with impressive
displays featuring
the latest, most innovative
machinery and products
on the market to date. Exhibitors

knew that the Luft
Fafa's lack of a long range
strategic bomber enabled
the RAF to concentrate
virtually the whole of
its defensive strength
within a limited area.
An area to which the Luft Fafa was forced
to confine its intentions.
They also knew that this would sap
their operational strength.
Prototypes of four engine
heavies had been built
but they were abandoned and never saw
the production lines.
They did however, possess
the Heinkle HE 177 Grief,
a long range twin engine bomber.
An aircraft which was destined to provide
the most dismal chapter
in the war time record
of the German aircraft industry.
Fires in the air, aerodynamic troubles,
and structural failures all contributed
towards the unpopularity
of this big bomber
when it reached operational units.
The faults of this aircraft
were recognized too late
and when they were recognized
insufficient energy
was devoted to eradicating them.
There was nothing wrong
with the basic design
and had effective measures beentaken
the Luft Fafa might have
found itself possessing
a heavy bomber comparable
with if not superior to
the best of the allied
machines of the same type.
Aptly named the Grief, this
aircraft's chief claim to fame
was the fact that it was
the only German heavy bomber
to obtain quantity production
during the war years.
It was in fact one of
the very few entirely new
German combat aircraft to
progress from the design boards
to operational service
during the conflict.
But the advantages that
it offered were nullified
by the German aircraft
industries inability
to devote sufficient effort
towards its perfection.
A claim by German
propagandists as the scourge
of Europe, the aircraft
the conquered nations,
the supreme weapon, the
angularly ugly Yonkers JU 87
dive bomber attained greater notoriety
than any other weapon in
the arsenal with which
Germany launched the second World War.
It was one of the most
vulnerable of war planes.

Then, in September, a court ruled in favor of a lesbian expatriate couple seeking to be treated on par with heterosexual couples by the immigration department. The Hong Kong government is seeking to appeal that decision too and if it is allowed, that could be heard next year or in 2019.

version
of the common lyre),
the plectrum
and the sword.
Another common emblem
was the sacrificial tripod,
representing his
prophetic powers.
The palm tree
was also sacred to Apollo
because he had been born
under one in Delos.
Animals sacred to Apollo
included wolves,
dolphins, roe deer,
swans,
cicadas
(symbolizing music and song),
ravens, hawks,
crows (Apollo
had hawks and crows
as his messengers),
snakes (referencing Apollo's function
as the god of prophecy),
mice and griffins,
mythical eagle–lion hybrids
of Eastern origin.
Apollo is an important
pastoral deity, and
was the patron of herdsmen
and shepherds.
Protection of herds,
flocks and crops
from diseases,
pests and predators
were his primary duties.
As the god of Music
(art of Muses),
Apollo presides over
all music, songs,
dance and poetry.
He is the inventor
of string-music,
and the frequent companion
of the Muses, functioning
as their chorus leader
in celebrations.
The lyre is
a common attribute of Apollo.
In Hellenistic times,
especially during the
5th century BCE,
as Apollo Helios
he became identified
among Greeks with Helios,
Titan god of the sun.
In Latin texts,
however,
there wasno conflation
of Apollo with Sol
among the classical Latin poets
until 1st century CE.
Apollo and Helios/Sol
remained separate beings
in literary and
mythological texts
until the 5th century CE.
Apollo was the son of Zeus,
the king of the gods,
and Leto, his previous wife
or one of his mistresses.
When Zeus' wife
Hera discovered that
Leto was pregnant,
she banned Leto
from giving birth
on terra firma.
Leto sought shelter
in many lands,
only to be rejected
by them.
Finally,
the voice of unborn Apollo
informed his mother
about a floating island
named Delos which
had once been Asteria,
Leto's own sister.
Since it was
neither a mainland
nor an island,
Leto was readily
welcomed there
and gave birth to her children
under a palm tree.
All the goddesses
except Hera
were present to witness the event.
It is also stated that
Hera kidnapped Eileithyia,
the goddess of childbirth,
to prevent Leto
from going into labor.
The other gods tricked Hera
into letting her go
by offering her

In The
Court of Appeals
For The
First District of Texas
NO. 01-09-00277-CV
MICHAEL SCOTT, Appellant
V.
PABLO GARZA; AND DENISE KERR, IN HER OFFICIAL
CAPACITY; AND UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS MEDICAL BRANCH AT GALVESTON, Appellees
On Appeal from the 268th District Court
Fort Bend County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 06-DCV-147744
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant, Michael
Scott, who is incarcerated and represents himself pro se, challenges the trial
court’s order dismissing his lawsuit for personal injuries against appellees,
Pablo Garza, Denise Kerr, and the University of Texas Medical Branch at
Galveston (“UTMB”). In his sole issue,
Scott contends that the trial court erred in dismissing his case for want of
prosecution.
We
affirm.
Background
On February
9, 2006, Scott, an inmate within the Institutional Division of the Texas
Department of Criminal Justice (“TDCJ”), filed in Fort Bend County his original
petition, in which he alleged that, while hewas incarcerated in the TDCJ McConnell
Unit in Bee County, Garza assaulted him and Kerr failed to provide an ice pack
for his injuries. He also alleged that UTMB’s
policy regarding the application of ice packs violates the Texas Tort Claims
Act.[1]
The trial
court, on October 9, 2008, sent Scott a notice informing him that his case had
been set on its dismissal docket and of the actions necessary to retain the
case on the court’s docket. On November
10, 2008, Scott responded by filing a second “Plaintiff’s Original Petition,” in
which he alleged the same causes of action.
He included with his second petition a complete list of the lawsuits that
he had previously filed.[2] On December 19, 2008, the trial court entered
its order of dismissal for want of prosecution.
Jurisdiction
In his sole
issue, Scott argues that the trial | {

- [Roy] Few other aircraft
of the second World War
gained the universal
affection of the air crew
over so long an operational period
as did the Boeing B17 fortress.
This legendary aircraft
formed the spearhead
of the American bombing
offensive in Europe.
From beginning to end as
well as serving in every
other theater of war.
No single aircraft type contributed more
to the defeat of the
Luft Fafa both in the air
and on the ground than the Fortress,
which enabled tangible
expression to be given
to the controversial United States policy
for the strategic
assault of Germany by day
and the face of formidable
political argument
as well as desperate enemy opposition.
A curious feature of
the fortresses history
is that its reputation
is the leading allied
day bombers established
despite its inferiority
in many respects of
performance, compared with its
combat contemporary, the B24 liberator.
The bomb load of USAAF
fortresses over Europe
was usually no more than
carried by thediminutive
Dehavealan Moscito.
Far fewer fortresses then
liberators were built.
12,677 fortresses being
accepted by the USAAF
between July 1940 and August 1945.
These equipped a maximum of
33 overseas combat groups
by August 1944.
The fortress achieved fame
on the strength of several
outstanding attributes.
Of these, perhaps the most important
were an excellent high altitude capability
and the ability to
absorb an amazing amount
of battle damage.
To these attributes were
added in its later variance,
an exceptionally heavy defensive armament.
Though the true combat
potential of the fortress
is achieved only after a
long period of gestation.
(drum music)
The fortress had dropped
over 640,000 tons of bombs
on European targets during the war years.
This compares with 452,508
tons dropped by the B24
liberators and 463,544 tons
dropped by all other aircraft.
(drum music)
According to records compiled
by its manufacturers,
the fortress destroyed 23 enemy
aircraft per thousand sorted
as compared to 11 by B24
liberators, 11 by United States
fighters, and three | {

several reasons,
including religion.
Most of the Irish immigrants
in the US were Roman Catholic,
and there had long been bad
blood between Protestants
and Catholics.
Some Protestants believed this
exodus of Irish immigrants
was a papal army seeking to
overthrow the US government
and establish a new
Vatican in Cincinnati.
Others just worried
that these newcomers
would take their jobs.
As with every wave
of new immigrants,
most of the Irish who came
to the US during this time
ended up taking dangerous,
low-paying work.
Irish Catholics also brought
their love of the drink.
Irish-owned pubs popped
up across the country,
giving the new immigrants
a foothold in the economy
but also leading to an ugly
stereotype, the Irish as
job-stealing, junk cretins.
Discrimination was rampant.
Entire political parties
sprung up to fight
this perceived Irish menace.
Members of the
so-called American Party
referred to themselves
as Know Nothings
because when questioned
about their membership
they claimed to know nothing.
But they had a very active
agenda and vowed toonly
elect native-born Americans--
no, not them, just the
non-Catholic whites.
They also started violent riots
and picked street fights in
Irish-Catholic neighborhoods.
But after years
of discrimination,
the Irish fought back,
not in the streets
but at the ballot box.
Their sheer numbers
gave them strength.
They voted Irish Catholics into
powerful political positions
across major East Coast cities.
At the same time,
non-Irish Americans
also started to come around
to the whole Irish pub thing.
And as the Irish moved
up the social ladder,
nativists, like
the Know Nothings,
shifted their prejudices to
the next wave of immigrants
from China and Eastern Europe.
The Irish became
Irish Americans,
and non-Irish Americans
started to act
more Irish, or at least how
they thought the Irish acted.
Today, Irish traditions,
including music, dance,
and drink, have been woven into
the fabric of American society.
So the next time you fly an
Irish flag on St. Paddy's Day,
remember what Americans
once hated and feared
is now a staple of our | {

made
copies and objects like
watermelons, crabs,
and millions and millions
of sunflower seeds.
He has embraced the handmade
within an economy whose
incredible growth has been
fueled by automation and mass
production.
He has synthesized
traditionally Chinese materials
to think about the
part in relationship
to the whole, the self in
relationship to the collective.
"If a nation cannot face
its past," he has said,
"it has no future."
And Ai is equally
concerned with the present.
In 2008, when the Sichuan
earthquake struck,
he visited the region in
the immediate aftermath
and assembled volunteers to
gather the names of the dead,
addressing attempts by
authorities to cover up
the disproportionate number of
schoolchildren who died because
of poorly built schools.
He amassed tons of twisted
rebar from the wreckage,
painstakingly straightened
it, and assembled it
into spare elegiac memorials.
He arranged 9,000 backpacks
on the facade of the Haus der
Kunst to Munich to represent
the young lives lost,
spelling out a quote
from a victim's mother.
"She livedhappily for
seven years in this world."
Ai has been a ceaseless,
unflagging voice
for the voiceless.
In 2009, he was beaten and
detained in his hotel room
in Chengdu when
attempting to testify
in the trial of human
rights activist Tan Zuoren.
He visits with refugees
fleeing the war in Syria,
organized a London walk of
compassion in their honor,
covered his sculptures
with thermal blankets,
and wrapped the columns
of Berlin's concert hall
with salvaged
refugee life vests.
An early adherent
of social media,
he's an adamant
supporter of free speech.
He reports on his
life in minute detail.
He did so up until his
2011 arrest and confinement
for 81 days on unfounded
tax evasion charges,
as well as after.
Authorities have demolished
his Shanghai studio,
threatened to demolish
his Beijing studio,
and forced him to
pay a tax evasion
fine of 15 million yuan.
He has been continually
surveilled and followed,
prevented from leaving his
country, and through it all,
has refused censorship within
China, as well as | {

to that.
Duchamp conceptualized his
portable museum at the same time
that Andre Mallereau
was rethinking his own,
and there are numerous
similarities
between the two projects.
After reading Walter Benjamin's
seminal 1936 article on Art
in the Age of Mechanical
Reproduction, Mallereau began
to consider the promising
possibilities
of transforming the museum
from a geographically
determined collection
of original art objects,
traditionally organized
by national schools as in the
Louvre, into a virtual display
of cross-referenced
photographic reproductions,
much like Google Images today.
This new model represents
a post national
and post architectural museum
since the images would be
free floating rather than,
held down through semi-permanent
collection displays.
Mallereau's museum
without walls -- sorry.
Yeah. That's right.
That's how it translates.
Mallereau's -- I guess we'd
say the museum without walls.
As it came to be known,
uprooted works of art
from their historical
geographical or temporal context
and reorganized them along
purely stylistic grounds.
In one memorable
instance, for example,
he compared a photograph
of an angel's head
from Rheims cathedral to
anotherBoix in Valise project began
in the spring of 1935 at a time
when Duchamp was preparing
to restore the [inaudible]
by [inaudible], otherwise
known as the Large Glass,
which had been badly damaged
following its first public
exhibition at the Brooklyn
Museum of Art in 1926.
This is a -- one of the few
photographs of this work.
If you can read this dedication,
it was from Marcel Duchamp
to Joseph Cornell, at the time
that Cornell was
making the boxes.
The large glass was returned
to its owner, Katherine Dryer,
in a flatbed truck, bouncing
along the Connecticut --
the rural Connecticut roads.
Imagine that.
Two enormous panes of glass.
This work is nine feet high.
Bouncing along these
roads to her home
in West Reading Connecticut,
the two enormous panes
of glass shattered, and it
took Dryer another four years
to summon the courage to inform
Duchamp that his magnum opus,

Russian,
at the age of five.
After public schools
in San Francisco,
he entered Harvard at
the ripe old age of 16.
He graduated with a
summa in math at 20,
clerked for Justice
Potter Stewart,
got tenure here at
the law school at 29,
became a university
professor in 2004,
wrote his iconic treatise
on the US Constitution.
He's currently working on a
book about impeachment, which
is coming out next spring.
He helped to write
the constitutions
of South Africa, the
Marshall Islands,
and the Czech Republic.
He's been elected to
the American Academy
of Sciences and the American
Philosophical Society.
And is most proud, in all these
accomplishments, of what he
has done with his many
students, not only
his longtime friend and
temporary adversary,
Kathleen Sullivan, but two of
our panelists today, Patricia
Millett and Merrick Garland.
Many of you saw two other of his
students yesterday, probably,
John Roberts and Elena Kagan.
Perhaps also David Barron
of the First Circuit.
And a slew of other
federaljudges, academics,
luminaries in the law, and
many, many, many friends.
Kathleen Sullivan began
her constitutional career
in Larry Tribe's
classroom and went on
to scale the highest peaks
of the legal profession.
She has 11 Supreme Court
arguments and innumerable
appellate and state court
arguments to her credit,
and is widely recognized
as one of the brightest
stars in appellate advocacy,
which, I should say,
has ventured into every
manner of constitutional and
commercial law.
She is the first, and
still only, female
named partner at an
Am Law 100 law firm.
And prior to her conquest
of the courtroom,
she made a stellar
name for herself
in the classroom as
a beloved professor
here at Harvard, where her
grateful students chose her
for the first Sacks-Freund
Award for Teaching Excellence.
She then went to Stanford,
where she became the first woman
dean of any of their schools.
And she has brought
thousands of students
to a better understanding
of the Constitution

20 years, has | {

The Kendall Kontroversy
By: Jake Patel
Kendall Jenner, the
second youngest of
the Kardashian sisters,
is widely known for
her quick rise in the
modeling world. While
she was first known
for her role in ‘Keeping
Up With the Kardashians’, she was able
to leverage her fame
and family name into a
high profile modeling
career. Many argued
that she became an
A-list model because
of her family name and
already-obtained fame,
but she proved herself
when she started
walking for shows like
Marc Jacobs and Victoria’s Secret. Even after
establishing herself in
the modeling world,
she has been the center of a few scandals
surrounding her individual career. Whether
it be an insensitive
Pepsi commercial or
offending her modeling
peers in an interview,
she’s had a few near
tragic step backs in her
effort to make a name
for herself.
When she first decided she wanted
to enter the world of high fashion, Jenner knew that she would face obstacles in theindustry and that she would
have to prove herself. Many believed
that she was able to just walk onto
the catwalk because of her high-profile
family, but Jenner is quoted saying that
it was just the opposite; she has said
that her name has had to make her
work even harder to prove herself. Believe it or not, Jenner started her modeling career posing for lower-profile
73 future
quick rise to the top is not
without setbacks though. In
2017 Jenner was the center
of a highly controversial
Pepsi commercial. The commercial spotlighted Jenner
seemingly bringing peace
to a protest with the use
of a Pepsi. The commercial
was accused of making light
of the Black Lives Matter
movement and was pulled
by the company soon after
its first air. More recently,
Jenner received backlash
after making a comment
about “those girls” in her industry. In an interview with

white
because people of color
just don't apply,
avoiding direct racial language
and using racially coded terms
such as urban,
underprivileged, diverse,
sketchy
and good neighborhoods,
denying that we have
few cross-racial relationships
by proclaiming how diverse
our community or workplace
is and attributing
inequality between whites
and people of color
to causes other than racism.
Consider a conversation
I had with a white friend.
She was telling me
about a white couple
who she knew who had
just moved to New Orleans
and bought a house
for a mere $25,000.
'Of course,'
she immediately added,
they also had to buy a gun,
'and Joan is afraid
to leave the house.'
I immediately knew
they had bought a home
in a Black neighborhood.
This was a moment
of white racial bonding
between this couple who shared
this story of racial danger
and my friend,
and then between my friend and
me as she repeated the story.
Through this tale,
the four of us fortified
familiar images
of the horror of Blackgot a story that I really
want to read.
Okay.
"So I was working with a group
of educators
who had been meeting regularly
for at least eight sessions.
The group was composed
of the equity teams
for a public school system,
self-selected by people
who wanted to support
equity efforts in their schools.
I had just finished
an hour-long presentation titled
Seeing the Water: Whiteness
in Daily Life.'
This presentation
is designed to make visible
the relentless messages
of white superiority, et cetera.
The room appeared
to be with me,
open and receptive with many
nodding along in agreement.
Then a white teacher
raised her hand
and told a story
about an interaction
she had as she drove
alongside a group of parents
protesting the achievement
gap in her school,
and she then proceeded
to imitate one mother
in particular
who offended her.
'You don't understand
our children,'
this mother had called out
to her as she drove by.

that the white teacher

Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo
Q
What
organization
has celebrated
77 years in Houston and
is still the group to be
involved with?
The Houston Livestock Show and
Rodeo was established in 1931 and
held its first show in 1932. Gene
Autry, the show’s first big-name
entertainer, performed in 1942,
the same year the calf scramble was
introduced. Ten years later, the Salt
Grass trail ride began when four
men traveled on horseback from
Brenham to Houston.
After moving into Houston's
new domed stadium in 1966, the
rodeo attracted more than 40,000
people to one performance. In
2003 at Reliant Stadium, each
performance drew more than
70,000 fans.
In 1999, 4-H and FFA
scholarships were increased for
the second year in a row. Each
commitment increased to 70
percent per program for a total of
140 four-year, $10,000 awards.

This is true for dozens of
multinationals and conglomerate
corporations that are

When Enron’s stock price rose
more than 300% from the early
1990s to 1998, the country
celebrated its energy titan,
which was trying to simplify energy,
broadband, natural gas, and
pipeline services to individuals
and companies across the country.
It had already become the most dominant
name in natural gas by 1992, but used
that foothold to expand into the entire
energy industry, from top to bottom.
Following those 8 years of
impressive stock growth, it exploded
in 1999 by more than 50% and then
again in 2000 by nearly 100%.
All told, from 1996-2000,
Enron’s value shifted from
approximately $13 billion
to over $100 billion,
a wildly unprecedented rate
of growth that made it one of
the wealthiest and most powerful
companies on the planet.
The stock market continued to pour praise
on Enron, valuing it atstock brokering to
magazine publications and e-commerce.
Her name has become
synonymous with a lifestyle,
and her magazine,
Martha Stewart Living,
was one of the most popular
and well-respected magazines
in mass publication
within the United States.
Her television show of
the same name was wildly
popular for the better
part of a decade,
allowing her to share her tips,
tricks, and secrets on everything
from gardening to cooking to
making decorations for the house.
However, even the elegant exemplar
of domestic bliss couldn’t escape
the clutches of corporate scandal,
and when all was said and done,
one of America’s true sweethearts had to
stand trial for insider trading charges
in one of the most controversial and
widely watched scandals in modern history.
But that’s getting ahead of the story;
let’s take a step back to
see what really happened.

And ironically, Harry
Reid did the same thing
on the other side; he put
the most progressive people
on the commission including
Dick Durbin from Illinois.
So the commission came
back with its proposal,
now it proposed $4 trillion
of savings or reduction
in the debt, 70% of that came
out of spending reductions,
30% came from revenues.
It had some really
creative ideas in it
like totally re-writing our
tax laws which we need to do
to make them more effective for
collection of revenues and also,
from an investment standpoint.
So people invest in
order to generate revenue
and economic activity and thus
jobs, rather than to avoid taxes
and it reformed Social Security,
made actuarially
solvent for 75 years.
Unfortunately the proposal' of
this commission which were voted
for by the three Republican
members of the Senate
and by Dick Durbin and five of
the President's six appointees
to the commission, were never

dell R. Anderson was gov-ernor,
Bethel's Wendell R.
Anderson was a mission-ary
in the Philippines.
Before coming to Bethel
this fall Anderson was
the pastor of Lakeside
Baptist Church in Went-worth,
Wisconsin. Prior
to that he was a mission-ary
and teach for 14 years
at the Baptist Thelogical
College and Seminary in
Cebu in the Philippines.
Anderson said that
teaching in Cebu was
much different from teach-ing
at Bethel. The college
there is geared for stu-dents
going into the pas-t
ora te , missions and
church-related fields; it is
not a liberal arts college.
The students travel to
neighboring schools for
their liberal arts educa-tion
in conjunction with
the seminary.
Studentsat the semi-nary
there also have two
years less formal educa-tion.
However, they are
quite motivated because
of the high sacrifices they
pay to be there. Because
even Christian Philip-pinos
do not see church
related vocations as worth-while
jobs because they
are low paying, most stu-dents
break family rela-tions
in attending the
seminary.
Anderson enjoys teach-ing
at Bethel, yet is less
enthusiastic about the
evaluation and testing
that comes with the job.
He is concerned about
objectivity and fairness.
In returning to Bethel
Anderson said with a
chuckle, "the students are
getting younger." He is
pleased with the growth
of the faculty and admin-istration.
He is impressed
with "the spectacular tal-ent
of the students," he
said.
Anderson graduated
from Bethel in 1953. Later
he served as director of
Christian Activities (now
Campus Ministries) and
taught Greek and Intro-duction
to Bible Litera-ture
during 1962 -64. And-erson
earned his B.A. from
Fuller Theological Semi-nary
and a Th.M. from

and all.
I would like to begin by
expressing my gratitude to Bill
Crout for the invitation
to deliver this here's
Tillich lecture and to
the University Marshal's
Office, the Divinity School,
and the Department of Philosophy
for their sponsorship
of this event.
This occasion, as
you might imagine,
is a very meaningful one
for me for many reasons.
I took quite a few
courses in this very room.
And that includes the
course that Paul Tillich
taught in his last year here,
the philosophy of religion
course that was just mentioned.
And it was my
relationship with Tillich
that makes this an especially
meaningful opportunity
and occasion.
He was only here for two of
my years as an undergraduate.
He was not here
my freshman year.
But he was here my sophomore
and junior year, after which
he left to go to Chicago.
And in the two years in
which I had him as a teacher
and as an educator,
he profoundly
influenced the direction
ofmy philosophical life.
I took his philosophy
of religion course.
But I also took the
four-semester course
in the self
interpretation of man
in Western thought, which
was an incredible educational
experience.
It began in the beginning
of my sophomore year
and concluded at the
end of my junior year
and was the centerpiece of
my undergraduate education.
It begin with the
pre-Socratics and ended
with the existentialists.
And it didn't skip
anything in between.
So many philosophers,
so little time.
And yet, even though there
were only two lectures a week
and we were moving
at a great pace,
Tillich managed
to make all of us
feel that we actually
understood all of that,
which is a great illusion.
But nonetheless, it
was a great feeling.
It was in the last part of the
fourth semester of that course,
after dealing with
classical modern philosophy
from Descartes to Kant,
that Tillich introduced me
to Hegel, Marx,
Kierkegaard, and Nietzsche.

department here in those days

the Green Box,
the Boix in Valise
and the reconstruction
of the large glass, to me share
an interest in the replication
and preservation of works of
a fragile and ephemeral nature
that might otherwise have
been lost or destroyed.
They also reflect Duchamp's
thinking about the facsimile
and the nature of the
work of art in the age
of mechanical reproduction --
to borrow the title of Walter
Benjamin's famous 1936 essay.
As I shall argue, Duchamp's Boix
in Valise venture offers
a powerful commentary on
and counterpoint to Benjamin's
writings about the aura
of a work of art and it's
lost in an age of photography
and film, which as we have seen,
directly inspired Andre
Mallereau's notion
of a museum without walls.
According to Benjamin,
photography
and film represented a crisis
for painting which, as an object
for contemplative immersion,
cannot tolerate mass
viewing conditions.
The endless reproduction
of works
of art would inevitably
destroy their authority,
since the changes in human
perception necessarilyhappen
when technology represents
reality
in different ways would ensure
that paintings would
become ubiquitous, ephemeral
and ultimately valueless.
Benjamin analyzed [inaudible]
montage and film which had --
both have an intentionally
jarring and violent impact
on the senses of the
viewer that denies any form
of associative thought
or contemplation.
However, there is an ambivalence
in Benjamin's writings
about the aura of a work of art,
whose meaning is
not entirely clear.
On the one hand, it's lost
is celebrated as the end
of the exclusive ritual
status of an art object,
which previously belonged
in the privileged domain
of the wealthy private
collector or museum.
In favor of a popular
mass audience
that now has unprecedented
access to works of art
through photography,
postcards and other forms
of mechanical reproduction.
Yet on the other, Benjamin
mourns the disappearance
of aesthetic experience of a
unique and unrepeatable kind
that he felt would be
the inevitable result
of the mass reproductions
of paintings.
He never really explains what

awarded a contract by NASA
to be in charge of cargo transport
for an International
Space station.
This was to handle astronaut
transport later in the future
and replace NASA's
space shuttles.
Since then, SpaceX has been
on many space-related projects
and has slowly become
a household name.
It contracts with private businesses
and the United States government
to get satellites to orbit
and other spacecraft.
On May 22, 2012, history was made when
SpaceX launched its Falcon 9 rocket
unmanned into space.
The missile was sent to the
International Space Station,
carrying 1,000 pounds of supplies
for the astronauts situated there.
This marked the first time
spacecraft were launched
into the International Space
Station by a private company.
Elon was so ecstatic during the launch that
he compared it to winning the Super Bowl.
In December 2013 another Falcon
nine rocket carried a satellite
successfully to
geosynchronous transfer orbit;
this represents the point
where the spacecraft would lock
into an orbital pathmatching
the Earth's rotation.
In February 2015,
another Falcon 9 was launched.
It was fixed with the Deep Space
Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite,
with specialized programming to
observe the sun's extreme emissions
as it impacts the power grids
and Earth communications systems.
In March 2017,
SpaceX successfully tested flight
Falcon 9 rocket landing made
from reusable parts,
a development that paved the way
for more affordable space travel.
February 2018 recorded
another milestone moment
with the successful test launch
of the Falcon Heavy rocket.
The Falcon Heavy rocket designed
with additional Falcon 9 boosters
can carry mammoth
payloads into orbit
and come handy for
deep space missions.
In July 2018 Space X
SpaceX successfully landed
the new Block 5 Falcon rocket,
which settled on a drone ship less
than 9 minutes after take-off.
Space X hit another milestone as it

there could be swimming
creatures in that surprisingly
warm moon water.
As the future rushes toward
us with a mixture of lies
and truths, I would
like to sharpen focus
on what was actually
happening right
after the end of
World War II, when
the front page of the "Roswell
Daily Record" on July 8, 1947
was headlined, quote, "Roswell
Army Airfield Captures Flying
Saucer On Ranch
in Roswell Region.
No Details of Flying Disk
Are Revealed," close quote.
We now know that during a
thunderstorm late at night
on July 3 to 4, 1947,
three aerial objects
merged on radar before three
crash sites were reported.
The headline about
one of those crashes
came from Colonel William
Blanchard, commanding officer
of the 509th Bomb Wing at
the Roswell Army Airfield.
Colonel Blanchard ordered his
public information officer,
Walter Haut, to issue
a press release that
said one of those flying saucers
that people had been reporting
that summer had crashed
northwest of Roswell
near Corona.
Strange debrishad been
found by sheep rancher Mac
Brazel on July 4.
Three days later
on July 7, the head
of the Roswell Army Airfield's
509th Bomber Group Intelligence
unit, Lieutenant Colonel
Jesse Marcel, Sr.
went to the Brazel ranch with
Counterintelligence Corps Agent
Sheridan Cavitt.
They wanted to investigate,
and they gathered up
peculiar silver foil
that folded like cloth
and sprang back to
perfect flatness.
There were also
long, thin I-beams
with purple symbols on them.
The next day on July
8, after the story
broke on the front page of
the "Roswell Daily Record,"
the head of the Eighth Air Force
in Fort Worth, Texas, Brigadier
General Roger Ramey
held a press conference
with his chief of staff,
Colonel Thomas Dubose,
to falsely say there
was no flying saucer.
It was just a
weather balloon that
exploded in a thunderstorm.
To strengthen his phony
story, General Ramey
had pieces of shredded weather
balloon spread on the floor
to be photographed
so newspapers would
run with his concocted
story, specifically

relates to a
conversation that took place in
1791, so it's after the
Revolution.
The United States has only been
in existence for a few years
when this story takes place.
And Secretary of State Thomas
Jefferson,
who is almost newly arrived as
Secretary of State,
not there for that long,
decides he's going to have a
little dinner party to discuss a
political question that's come
up,
and he invites Vice President
John Adams and he invites
Secretary of the Treasury
Alexander Hamilton.
The reason why we know this
story is because Jefferson told
it a lot, right?
Because as we'll see,
Jefferson draws great,
deep significance to this
little dinner conversation and
he repeated it over and over
again in letters and in
journals.
It's like the story that
reveals the meaning of
everything--but you'll see why.
It won't sound too dramatic now
that I've set it up that way,
but to Jefferson it was
earth-shaking.
So alittle dinner party,
Adams, Jefferson,
Hamilton--and Jefferson,
who tells the story,
says that after they're done
with their meal,
quote, "our questions
agreed and dismissed,
conversation began on other
matters....
The room, being hung around
with a collection of the
portraits of remarkable men--
among them were those of Bacon,
Newton,
and Locke--Hamilton asked me
who they were."
So this is Jefferson's home and
in his home are these portraits,
Bacon, Newton,
and Locke, and Hamilton,
sitting there as a dinner
guest, looks up,
sees the portrait and says,
'Who are they?' Okay.
Jefferson says,
"I told him they were my
trinity of the three greatest
men the world had ever
produced"--
this is Professor Jefferson in
full gear--
"naming them."
Lord Francis Bacon,
the philosopher of science,
Sir Isaac Newton,
the scientist who defined the
laws of gravity,
John Locke, the philosopher
of--I suppose you could say,
the philosopher of liberty,
and as Jefferson recalled
hearing this,
quote, Hamilton "paused
for some time.

so much worship of many gods.
And not only that, it was a
strange style of worship.
Because in one place there was a
thousand prostitutes that were
there at the temple, and this
sexual intercourse, or orgy,
was a part of their worship
that they participated in.
And so Paul comes to them,

notion of
progress is something
that was a part of his makeup.
Antislavery-- as a
young man in his 20s,
he writes in his
commonplace book--
these are little
books that people
kept with sayings
and so forth, things
that they would clip out.
He clipped out a poem from a
man named William Shenstone
about the slave trade,
and about a man,
an African, ripped
from his homeland,
forced to cross the ocean
to labor for other people.
Now, so for people who
say, well, Jefferson
is doing all this anti-slavery
talk just for posterity,
for legacy, this is
when he's like 25, 26.
There is no Thomas Jefferson.
I mean, there was
a Thomas Jefferson,
but he wasn't "Thomas
Jefferson" at that time.
He doesn't know there's going to
be a United States of America.
He doesn't know he's going
to be president of it.
I mean, this is part of
this Enlightenment notion.
I am the young,
progressive person.
He believes from
the very beginning
thatslavery is wrong,
and he writes that
from an early
period of his life.
So that's the kind of
person he starts off
as-- as an individual
who thinks that he's
going to be one of the
leading people in his society,
but he's going to be
helping towards moving
Virginia's society into
a more progressive view.
Then the Revolution comes along.
And he's a young man.
He's a young lawyer.
I have a friend who's
doing a book now
about Jefferson
as a young lawyer,
and he talks about his cases.
Some of his cases
were cases that
involved slavery, or actually
defending people, or working
on behalf of people who
were claiming their freedom.
And he did things as a lawyer
to try to move that along.
But the Revolution comes, and
he develops a new passion.
At first, as you may
know, the revolutionaries
were not really interested
in leaving Great Britain.

in Bologna
in 1647, he was spurred to write
his own history of the Bolognese
school,
beginning
with the contemporaries
of Giotto
and going up to his own time.
And here on the right,
you can see the National
Gallery's wonderful copy
of the two-volume edition
of Malvasia, which we've used
extensively in our work, which
belonged to the former Kress
Professor Rudolf Wittkower,
and then on the right,
the 1647 three-volume edition
of Vasari, published in Bologna,
which sparked Malvasia's
interest in rewriting
the history of his own times.
Malvasia was
furious about the perpetuation
of the view that Florentine art,
beginning with Giotto
and culminating in the figure
of Michelangelo,
was superior to any other,
especially given
that by the mid-17th century,
Bologna, home of such artists
as Guido Reni, Domenichino,
Guercino, and Albani,
could claim greater prominence.
The Vasarian paradigm
of the Renaissance in Florence
has been so strong, however,
that over the centuries,
Malvasia's admittedly polemical
position has been discredited.
Not only that, his Italianthe years,
we've been able to invite
scholars and curators working
on Renaissance sculpture,
old master drawings,
early Italian painting,
American watercolors,
the French Academy,
early British photography,
the sculpture of Rodin,
and on and on.
A further benefit, often
with support from the Smith
Family Foundation,
has been the opportunity to put
together a workshop, or a sort
of master class,
often involving colleagues
in conservation, in which
invited emerging scholars can
engage in intensive study
of a set of problems proposed
by the Safra Professor.
In this way, we hope to share
a deep, first hand knowledge
of works of art
with a new generation, one that
will be
responsible
for their interpretation
and protection in the future.
We're absolutely
delighted that the success
of this program
has led to its endowment
in the Gallery's
75th anniversary year
by the Edmond J. Safra
Foundation inspired
by the Mellon challenge
grant for endowment.

reforms.
Eventually, they decide
they want to make a break.
And when that happens,
Jefferson really,
really does begin to
hate Great Britain.
Before, he had loved--
he grew to hate it,
in the way that you
could only hate
something that you
had really loved at one point.
And he was against the British.
He writes a declaration.
It's not known at that time that
he's writing the Declaration.
That is something that
became much more known later,
in the 1790s.
But he, among the people in the
know, understood what he did.
And the Revolution becomes
the focal point of his life.
This is the thing that
we say in the book.
We're obsessed with race--
rightly, I think.
We are obsessed with
the issue of slavery,
which I think is right.
But that was not
Jefferson's obsession,
neither one of those things.
Jefferson was obsessed about
the United States of America,
the Revolution, having been
a part of the Revolution,
having helped to
createthe second
part of the book,
"Traveler," goes to the idea--
has Jefferson going
to France, and shows
how the ideas that he developed
there, the things he saw there,
helped to transform him.
When he leaves, he has been
the governor of Virginia,
very poor governor.
I mean, things didn't
work out so well.
He's angry at the people
who are mad at him
about some of the things
that he did as governor.
And he goes to France.
And he sees a completely
different world.
He loves part of it.
He loves the art, the
music, the architecture.
But he's frightened of
the social life in France.
And what frightens him
the most are women.
Women in France, who are talking
politics, who are, he says,
in the streets, away
from the nurseries,
forgetting what
they've left behind
in their nurseries, and
their husbands, and so forth.
So French family
life scares him.

Moroni told Smith wherethe gold tablets were on which the truth was hidden
There were also biblical stones Urim and Thummim

Joseph Smith went to Cumorah Hill

after some initial
teething problems did develop
into an outstanding aircraft.
Remaining in service
until the end of the war,
the Halifax maintained its position
of one of the two principle
RAF heavy bombers.
The Hampden was one of
the world's most advanced
war planes at the time of its debut
and it came off a distinguished line.
It was a forgiving airplane
from the pilot's viewpoint
and its ease of control
rendered it an extremely
pleasant airplane to fly.
With it small enough to
be highly maneuverable,
its cockpit offered an
excellent fighter like
field of vision and it possessed
a remarkable speed range.
Named after William
Mitchell the far sighted
crusading American cornel
of the 20s who was court
marshaled for his outspoken
views on air power
and posthumously raised
to the rank of General,
the North American B25
was possibly the best
all around light medium
bomber of the second
World War.
Operationally efficient,
this docile adaptable machine
had an excellent allaround performance
and with particularly good
handling characteristics,
and it was one of the most
popular of combat aircraft
among all allied air crews.
Had the Mitchel never
attacked another objective,
it would have ranked among
the most truly historic
air craft of the war
for its fantastic attack
against Tokyo in 1942 when it operated
from the flight deck of the USS Hornet.
It was manufactured in larger quantities
than any other American
twin engine bomber.

many of these were destined
to find their way to the British, Soviet,

but this exceptionally
fine bomber made its mark
on every far flung front
of the second World War.

- The New World Order,
a collection of entities
that have formed one
organization that is attempting
to instill their brand of
order over the entire world.
While never fully proven,
there are several pieces
of evidence to support
theories that they exist.
The following is just that.
(mysterious music)
Here are 10 dark New World
Order conspiracy theories.
Number 10 is the fluoride mafia.
In popular New World
Order conspiracy theories
that fluoride is in the
water supply purely to
create a docile population.
This is perpetrated by
a shadowy organization
known as the fluoride mafia.
This includes everyone from popular food
and beverage companies to
industrial corporations.
Countries affected by the use of fluoride
in the water supply
include the United States,
Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom.
Fluoride was first put in the
water supply in the 1950s.
The official story is
that it protects our teeth
from developing cavities.
However, conspiracy theorists
believe that the fluoride
slowly accumulates in the body
andeventually sedates the brain.
That means everyone drinking
tap water becomes more passive
and open to the New World
Order's nefarious schemes.
Number nine is the black helicopters.
In the 1970s, people started noticing
strange black helicopters in the sky.
These helicopters are the subject of
a New World Order conspiracy theory.
Initially the helicopters were linked to
other conspiracy theories such
as UFOs and the men in black,
but over time, conspiracy
theorists proposed that
the black helicopters carry federal
and United Nations agents.
These agents are from a shadowy
arm of the New World Order.
Their job is to enforce
New World Order policies,
and many within the
militia movement throughout
the United States believe
that these black helicopters
are part of a vast
network which will be used
by the United Nations to seize
control of the United States
at an opportune moment.
There are even some that

Busy times at FSC Australia
Policy CEO, new staff members appointed
A STRONG understanding of
voluntary standards schemes has
equipped Daniel Mackey well for
his new position as deputy CEO,
policy, at FSC Australia.
The role will be pivotal in running
the standards development
process,
coordinating
stakeholders and ensuring that
submissions are coordinated to
FSC International on the many
policy issues under way.
Mr Mackey has spent the
last five years working with
Fairtrade Australia and New
Zealand managing stakeholder
engagement and running policy
initiatives
He is completing a Masters in
Trade and Diplomacy where he
has conducted extensive research
into the Australian forest industry
and the institutional context for
developing norms around best
practice and sustainability where
FSC is a subject of detailed study.
He also holds qualifications in
international trade, politics and
international studies.
Mr Mackey starts with FSC
Australia on August 5, which
aligns with the organisation’s
timing ofhaving a contract
with the commonwealth signed
and putting out expressions of
interest for the establishment
of the standards development
group.
FSC Australia CEO Natalie
Reynolds says it has been a
busy couple of months for the
team – the AGM and networking
dinner, appointment of two new
directors, the launch of the 2013
annual excellence awards and
attendance at the global network
meeting in Frankfurt early in June.
FSC Australia has also appointed
two other staff members –
Madeleine Alafaci, trademarks
officer, and Belinda Marino,
accounts officer – and has been
working on acquiring funding
to ensure delivery of a rigorous
FSC Australian national forestry
standard.
Ms Reynolds said the signing of
the funding agreement for the
$500,000 promised in the federal
Budget had been delayed due
to the change in government
structure following the leadership
change.
“We are in the final stages of
negotiating the terms of the
agreement and look forward to
getting under way,” Ms Reynolds
said.

The Wellington was from
then on never again used
by daylight unescorted
except in coastland transport
commands.
(dramatic music)
With its transfer to a
nighttime bombing run,
the Wellington operated
with conspicuous success,
spearheading the RAF's night offensive
against Germany.
(dramatic music)
The Wellington was an airplane worthy of
the Royal Air Force.
All with the distinction the
name of Great British soldier.
Other bombers came forward
as the war progressed
but none enjoyed a finer reputation.
When in the summer of 1936
the Bristol Blenin made
its debut it was immediately
hailed as a major
step forward in combat
aircraft design which placed
the British aircraft
industry in the forefront
of fast day bomber development.
It was the first modern, all
metal Cantaleva Mona plane
of stress in construction,
to be placed in production
for the Royal Air Force
and as such,it noted
the beginning of a new
era in the equipment
of that era.
For several years acute
uneasiness had existed
concerning the obsolescence
of the RAF's operational
equipment.
Uneasiness accentuated
by developments abroad.
The emergence of the
Blenin, representing such
a tremendous technical
advance over the air craft
which it superseded, did
much to still this disquiet.
More than any other airplane,
it sounded the death smell
of the fighting bi-plane.
It set a pattern in
the light bomber design
which other nations
were not slow to follow,
yet the Blenin was fated never to fulfill
the very high hopes
that were placed in it.
One of the key types
selected by the air industry
for the re-equipment of
the rapidly expanding RAF
of the late 30s, the Blenin,
at the time of its service
introduction was
possessed of a performance
which enabled it to
outplace most contemporary
service fighters.

me made me
want to get a job to help her.
But in an interview
Lianna did, she
shared that, although
that was her attitude
about the pregnancy, the
rape itself caused her life
to become a living hell.
No matter how many
times she showered,
she could not get rid of the
feeling that she was dirty.
And so she started to
entertain thoughts--
or she thought about
committing suicide.
But when she thought
about committing suicide,
she remembered she
was pregnant and she
had to think not only about
herself but about the child,
and so she didn't kill herself.
And she looked at me in
that restaurant in Guatemala
and she said to me, Stephanie,
I saved my daughter's life,
but she saved mine.
In another story of
an inspiring person
I've met who I believe brings
this third principle to life,
I'm reminded of a young
woman by the name of Veronica
who was a college student who
got pregnantshe
talks about regretting it.
And once she was in an audience
where a student had a friend
en route to an abortion clinic,
and he simply sent his friend
a text.
There's a woman here who
regrets her abortion.
And the friend texted back, why?
And so this young woman was
willing to sit down with Debbie
and listen to not
only Debbie's story,
but give Debbie an
opportunity to listen to her
and what her reasonings
were for abortion.
And she felt she had
no support, that she
couldn't get through that
pregnancy and parenting.
So Debbie said, I'll support
you and your friend here
will support you.
That girl didn't go to the
abortion clinic that day,
but she did go the next day
to hear her child's heartbeat,
and then she decided to carry
through with that pregnancy.
And several months later,
this baby girl was born.

could be
significant and observable by
2010 and isn't restricted to the
Boundary Waters, said Daniel
Botkin, a professor of biological and environmental
studies who helped conduct
the study.
"Outside (of the park) is a
commercial logging area. The
boreal (northern) forest
produces wood good for pulp
and paper. The hardwoods are
for making furniture, and it's a
completely different industry,"
said Botkin.
The study is preliminary,
Botkin cautioned, saying that
much more information needs
to be gathered.
The study was based on
matching 30 years of weather
data from Virginia Minn., with
a computerized weather
model created by the National
Aeronautics and Space
Administration that predicts a
doubling of carbon dioxide,
the major gas involved in the
greenhouse effect, in 100
years. The model's estimate
of carbon dioxide is
conservative. Many scientists
believe that the amount of
carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere will double in
about 50 years.
An increase of just two
degrees Fahrenheit in the
average global temperature
could put the southern
boundary of thecan
accommodate. "You're collapsing about one million years of
(natural) climate change into
about 50 years," Ciborowski
said.
The warming is the result of
the atmospheric buildup of
gases such as carbon dioxide,
nitrous oxide and methane.
They allow heat from the sun
to reach the surface of the
planet, but then trap it in the
atmosphere when the Earth
tries to return it to space.
The Earth's mean average
annual temperature has
increased about one degree
Fahrenheit in the past century.
Dealing with the greenhouse
effect is so difficult because
the pollutants that cause it are
tied to energy production and
modern industrial processes
that cannot be stopped easily
or quickly.
"II ve worked on this problem
for seven or eight years and
I'm still trying to deal with the
overwhelming scope of it,"
Ciborowski said.
"It would take 20 years to
get a consensus (to attack the
problem seriously)," he said.

The majority of Namaqualand's

Moisture surges

Following the winter rains,
the land transforms

In the North of Namaqualand,

The waterfall serves as a refuge

A welcome break

The low winter temperatures

the available moisture.
After a ten month slumber,
Namaqualand restarts its annual

If the rain is the compost,
the pollinators

There are far more
species of flowers

So every plant competes to

It's a race against time
for these flowers,
and only the attractive win.
Monkey beetles use visual cues

They use these flowers

And some flowers have evolved
to take full advantage of this.
Various black marks, otherwise

Hi guys!
Welcome to my channel.
I’m telling you history
and mythology here.
In this video,
I’m going to tell you
about Apollo.
Apollo is one
of the Olympian deities
in classical Greek and
Roman religion and
Greek and Roman mythology.
The national divinity
of the Greeks, Apollo
has been recognized
as a god of archery,
music and dance,
truth and prophecy,
healing and diseases,
the Sun and light,
poetry, and more.
One of the most important
and complex of the
Greek gods,isn’t he?
He is the son of
Zeus and Leto,
and the twin brother
of Artemis, goddess of the
hunt and the moon.
Seen as the most
beautiful god
and the ideal of
an athletic youth.
He is the only Olympian
that does not have a Roman name.
Let’s begin!
Medicine and healing
are associated with Apollo,
whether through the god himself
or mediated through
his son Asclepius.
Apollo delivered people
from epidemics,
yet he is also a god
who could bring ill-health
and deadly plague
with his arrows.
The invention of archeryitself
is credited to Apollo
and his sister Artemis.
Apollo is usually described
as carrying a golden bow
and a quiver of silver arrows.
Apollo's capacity
to make youths grow
is one of the
best attested facets of
his panhellenic cult persona.
Apollo is the god
who nurtures
and protects children
and the young,
especially boys.
He oversees their education
and their passage
into adulthood.
Education is
said to have originated
from Apollo and the Muses.
Many myths have him
train his children.
It was a custom for boys
to cut and dedicate
their long hair to Apollo
after reaching adulthood.
In art
Apollo was represented
as a beardless youth,
either naked or robed.
Distance, death,
terror, and awe
were summed up
in his symbolic bow.
A gentler side of his nature,
however, was shown
in his other attribute,
the lyre,
which proclaimed the joy of
communion with Olympus
(the home of the gods)
through music,
poetry, and dance.
Apollo's most common attributes
were the bow and arrow.
Other attributes of his

found himself on a huge
cotton operation near
Pickensville,
Alabama, which is right about
there, right on the Mississippi
border, a plantation with about
eighty-five slaves.
And the narrative he left us,
which was discovered and lopped
into my lap a few years ago,
the extraordinary narrative he
left, is the story largely of
his five attempts to escape in
the midst of the war,
from the age of fourteen to
seventeen.
He was one
passionate--half-crazy,
one might say--no doubt
traumatized--teenage slave who
just couldn't be controlled.
He ran away four times into
Mississippi, the second two of
which, certainly at least,
he was always trying to get up
to northern Mississippi to get
to the Union armies,
which he knew had controlled
the whole northern tier of
Mississippi by late spring 1862;
in fact three of his escapes
over there were really--.
He would always go up the
Mobile and Ohio Railway Line.
And one time he was at large
for fourand a half months,
hiding in other slave cabins
and hiding in woods and forests
and gullies wherever he could
hide,
and he was always captured.
He was trying to actually get
to Corinth, and the big
contraband camp in Corinth,
and he almost made it on his
fourth try.
He kept being captured by slave
patrols, Confederate patrols and
so on.
His master would always come
after him because he was so
valuable.
He'd been sold,
by the way, for $950 the first
time, out of North Carolina.
He was sold for $1000 to old
Chalmers in Richmond.
And Chalmers now got fed up in
early '63 of constantly trying
to retrieve this kid,
and he took him down to Mobile,
Alabama and sold him at the
slave jail in Mobile in the
spring of 1863 for $2000.
That's about the price today of
a good Mercedes-Benz;
well as opposed to a bad
Mercedes-Benz,
I'm not sure what that would
be.

When the United Kingdom voted to leave the
European Union in June 2016, the decision
was not unanimous.
Although 52% of the country voted for the
Brexit, the results were mostly localized,
with one strong exception.
According to Scotland's First Minister Nicola
Sturgeon, every single local authority area
in Scotland voted to stay, which is not entirely
surprising.
Back in 2014, when Scotland held its own referendum
on independence, it ultimately stayed with
the UK under the assumption it would continue
to benefit from the EU.
Now that that’s no longer the case, what
does the future look like for Scotland?
Well, within hours of the Brexit vote, Scottish
leaders began calling for a new referendum
to leave the UK, and re-join the EU as an
independent nation.
But just as was the case in 2014, the decision
to break away is not that simple.
For the past threeScotland passed the “Acts of Union”,
which followed the Treaty of Union in 1706.
Their merger to create “Great Britain”,
was largely fueled by the fact that the two
states, plus Ireland, had already shared a
single monarchy for more than 100 years.
But that was centuries ago, and as shown by
the Brexit referendum, England and Scotland
don’t seem to see eye to eye anymore.
Scottish First Minister, Sturgeon, described
the removal of Scotland from the EU against
its will as "democratically unacceptable".
Still, separating from the UK, if Scotland
chooses to do so, would be a fairly lengthy
process.
First, they have to reestablish a referendum.
Serious discussions on holding the original
2014 referendum began at least five years
in advance, and while it may not take until
2021 for Scotland to vote on its independence,

but also to avoid
potential danger.
The Mole snake is non-venomous
and doesn't have many defense
strategies if danger approaches.
She must live cautiously.
She continues her search.
Emerging from his intricate
network of underground burrows,
a Mole-rat starts his search
for a new home.
He likes to lead
a solitary life.
But others have started
moving in to his neighborhood
so he's decided it's time to
construct a new home elsewhere.
Everything about his body is
designed to sustain
a subterranean existence.
His protruding teeth
allow him to carve his way
deep into the earth.
His pliant skin allows him to
squeeze through narrow burrows.
And his prominent claws
help him move the excavated
earth out of his way.
His day to day diet consists of
grass, roots and geophytes;
plants that survive the summer
by lying in bulb form
beneath the soil.
But they are defenseless against
these poor sighted bandits.
After much searching
the Mole-rat has found
a suitable spot to setdiurnal.
They need the security
of sunlight
in order to avoid
their nocturnal predators.
Their only warning system
is a distinct whistle,
which they emit
when feeling threatened.
As soon as other members of the
colony hear this warning alert,
they dash
into their nearby tunnels.
During the dry season,
these gregarious creatures
reside mostly below ground
in order to avoid
the stifling heat.
But they do need to forage
above ground occasionally.
Exclusively herbivorous,
they eat mostly succulents
and bulbs in summer
and whatever other plant
material they can forage.
All the plants here
have also adapted to endure
Namaqualand's harsh conditions.
Shrubs grow long roots in order
to access underground moisture.
Succulents store water
in their leaves and stems.
But despite their adaptations
they're defenseless
against the rat's appetite.
It's May.
Winter is approaching.
The falling temperatures will
allow the whistling rats
to spend more time above ground.
And in a few months,
floral treats
will feature in their diet.

rather
than armament for defense,
and it was this emphasis
on performance upon which
the Mosquito's success as a fighter
was subsequently to be built.
As a bomber, it was designed to outperform
existing fighters.
Therefore, as a fighter, it
was bound to be outstanding.
As production mounted,
bomber and fighter squadrons
were formed throughout
the winter of 1941, '42.
20 Mosquitos had been
delivered by the end of 1941,
the first 50 by March, 1942.
The basic fighter Mosquito introduced
into squadron service in
1942 was the NF Mark II,
equipped primarily as a night fighter,
and used for home defense
alongside the Bristol Beaufighter.
(airplane rumbles)
Its armament comprised
four 20-millimeter cannon
in the front fuselage belly,
and four 0.303-inch Browning machine guns
in the extreme nose.
(airplanes rumble)
On the night of the
28th, 29tth of May, 1942,
Mosquito NF IIs scored
their first probable.
And in the following three
years, Mosquito night fighters
racked up a score of
approximately 600 enemyaircraft
over the British Isles,
and also destroyed 600 flying
bombs in a two-month period.
(airplanes rumble)
They later operated in
a bomber support role,
their task being to defend
the main heavy bomber streams
over enemy territory.
No fewer than 27 different
versions of the Mosquito
went into service during the war years,
and some of the most spectacular
operations of the air war
stood to its credit.
(airplane rumbles)
The Mosquito carried phenomenal loads
over extremely long
distances, performing feats
at war proportions to the
specification originally envisaged
by its designers.
In short, the Mosquito was
an outstanding war plane
on every count.
The Supermarine Spitfire
was much more than just a
highly successful fighter.
It was the material
symbol of final victory
to the British people
in their darkest hour,
and it was probably the only
fighter of the Second World War
to achieve a truly legendary status.
Certainly, no other
fighter is more deserving
of its place among the famous.

She followed a
creative path after graduation, helping specialneeds teens, working as a
journalist and managing
PR for a small ad firm.
In 1976, she and her
husband, Paul, opened
Holtzhausen Publicity
and Advertising in
Johannesburg, handling
accounts for banks, insurance companies and
savings and loans.
Holtzhausen also
honed her PR skills and
continued her education,
earning a master’s in Afrikaans literature in 1990
and a doctorate in communication science in 1995.
In 1992, she was
hired as head of corporate communications
for the South African
Tourism Board, one year
after apartheid ended.
Holtzhausen’s job was
to help rebuild South
Africa’s global image.
“PR practitioners
became the bridge-
builders between grassroots movements and
the powerful organizations they worked for,”
she says. “I had a critical
role during this transition. This role shaped my
interest in postmodern
PR as a form of activism.”
Starting over
While in South Africa,
she had met University
of Maryland Professors
James and Larissa Grunig,
ahusband-and-wife team
of world-renowned public
relations academics.
During her doctoral
research, Holtzhausen
received a $5,000 grant
from the South African
Human Sciences Research
Council and traveled
to College Park, Md.
The two were
impressed with Holzhausen’s work, encouraging
her to teach in the U.S.
“They saw something in
me and it opened the way
for my career,” she says.
The pair kept her
apprised about job
openings, which led to
Holtzhausen’s finding
a faculty opening at
the University of South
Florida’s School of Mass
Communications.
In 1997, Holtzhausen
accepted a job as an assistant professor at USF in
Tampa. The timing was
perfect for her family’s
move to the U.S. Her
husband, Paul, found a
magazine job in Florida,
and their son, who had
just graduated high school,
was preparing to study
film-making in America.

slave,
but not all.
In contrast to,
for example,
the middle Assyrian laws,
where a master can kill a slave
with impunity,
the Bible legislates that the
master who wounds his slave in
any way, even losing a
tooth--which is understood to be
a minor thing,
because it's not in any way an
essential organ--so even if he
knocks out a tooth,
right, he has to set him free.
That's in Exodus 21:26-27.
Moreover, the slave is entitled
to the Sabbath rest and all of
the Sabbath legislation.
And quite importantly,
a fugitive slave cannot be
returned to his master.
That's in Deuteronomy 23:16-17:
You shall not turn over
to his master a slave who seeks
refuge with you from his master.
He shall live with you in any
place he may choose among the
settlements in your midst,
wherever he pleases;
you must not ill treat
him.
This is the opposite of the
fugitive slave law,
actually inthis country in the
nineteenth century,
but also in Hammurabi's Code.
Right, Hammurabi's Code,
15,16 through 19:
"If a citizen has harbored in
his house either a fugitive male
or female slave belonging to the
state or private citizen and has
not brought him forth at the
summons of the police,
that householder shall be put
to death."
The term of Israelite,
Israelite slavery,
that is to say an Israelite who
has fallen into service to
another Israelite through,
generally, indebtedness--that's
a form that slavery took in the
ancient world and in the
biblical picture--the term was
limited to six years by Exodus,
by the Covenant Code.
In the Priestly code,
it's prohibited altogether.
No Israelite can be enslaved to
another Israelite.
So it's actually done away with
as an institution altogether.
In general, the Bible urges
humanitarian treatment of the
slave, again,
'for you were once slaves in
Egypt' is the refrain.
Other evidence of the trend
towards humanitarianism is | {

which were now largely
transferred to the fighter bomber
and escort roles.

Had it been possible to build
the Macchi Castoldi fighters
in really large numbers,
the air war over North
Africa and the Mediterranean
could well have followed
a different course.

A USAAF pilot's comment
after flight testing
a captured Folgore may
be considered descriptive
of all the Macchi Castoldi fighters.
"Gee, that's a honey of an airplane."
(airplanes roar)
The Curtiss Hawk, which
was called the Mohawk
by the Royal Air Force,
was a low-wing cantilever
monoplane single-seat fighter.
The P-36, which were the
Hawk's designated type,
entered service with the
United States Army Air Corps'
20th Pursuit Group in April, 1938.
(airplane rumbles)
The Hawk replaced their
existing complement of aging
Boeing P-26 fighters.
However, from the day
they arrived on the field,
the new Curtiss fighters
began to encounter
an extensive series of teething problems.
Severe skin buckling in the vicinity
of the landinggear wells appeared,
dictating the necessity
to replace the skins
with increasingly thicker ones,
along with the addition
of reinforced webbing.
Engine exhaust difficulties
and some weaknesses
in the fuselage structure
were also encountered.
However, despite all of these problems,
both the American and British air forces
found this fighter to have excellent
handling characteristics,
especially in its
superior ability in a fast dive.
By the outbreak of war, however,
although the British
and Americans both used
variants of the Hawk, or Mohawk,
they were considered as
obsolescent machines,
and by 1941, they were gradually replaced
by the more efficient
fighters coming online.

The Curtiss P-40 was
undoubtedly one of the most
controversial fighters
to serve in quantity
during the Second World War.
It was praised and abused,
lauded and vilified.
But the fact remains that,
as the first American
single-seat fighter to be manufactured
on a mass production basis,
it bore much of the brunt
of the air warfare over
several battlefronts.

least the end of 1940,
the Hurricane was numerically
the most important
British fighter in service.
When the Battle of Britain commenced,
the RAF order of battle included
30 squadrons of Hurricanes
and 19 squadrons of Spitfires.
It was the Hurricane,
therefore, that bore the brunt
of the fighting between
July and November, 1940.
The versatility of the
Hurricane is unlikely
ever to be surpassed by
any other combat aircraft.
No matter what role it was
called upon to undertake,
it fulfilled its task with distinction.
The Hurricane strongly
deserved the place it found
among the outstanding combat aircraft
in the history of aviation.
(airplanes buzz)
It is one of the paradoxes
of aircraft development
that some of the world's
greatest airplanes
have achieved their fame
doing jobs other than the one
for which they were originally designed.
No better example of this could
be found than the Mosquito,
which, conceived as a bomber,
became one of the war's
most potent fighters.
More thanthis, indeed,
it was probably the most
successfully versatile
of any twin-engine type
built between 1939 and 1945.
For, contrary to the old adage,
jack of all trades and master of none,
it excelled in all the widely varied roles
for which it was found to be amenable.
Its repertoire included
the duties of a low-level
and high-attack day and night bomber,
long-range photo reconnaissance,
mine layer, path finder,
high-speed military transport,
long-range day and night fighter,
and fighter bomber.
It served in Europe,
the Middle and Far East,
and on the Russian front.
In fact, the ubiquitous
Mosquito reigned supreme
among general-purpose types,
and of the grand total
of 7,781 Mosquitos built,
6,710 were delivered
during the war years.
The story of the Mosquito commenced
during the summer of 1938,
the year of the Munich crisis,
when the de Havilland
organization first gave thought
to the possibilities
of a high-speed bomber.

most part Emerson
has had a kind of renaissance
since this time, but even
still people regard him
in professional philosophy
departments,
they regard Emerson
with suspicion.
I don't think he
is on any syllabus
that gets taught here at NYU.
He is just not analytical
philosophy at all
and I think we will
try to understand why.
Although it was commonplace
to say at the turn
of the 20th century that Emerson
was the America's greatest
philosopher, in the
first Cambridge history
of American literature
from about 1917
that is how he is called.
He is denoted as
America's great philosopher,
so something has happened to
the disciplined philosopher.
You might say the
horizon of expectations
for what constitutes legitimate
academic philosophy has changed.
Okay in any case, this
editorial writer deplored the
appropriation of Emerson's work.
And she wrote this, the
post modern randomness
of the ads is meant to stress
individuality and uniqueness,
as does Emerson's philosophy,
individuality and uniqueness.
But she complains, the ads
distort thathe looks around
and he goes on kind
of a long tour.
He is obstensibly supposed to
study I think the prison systems
as a source, but he starts
generalizing out and broadening
out and he is looking
to understand what he
sees to be the future.
The enlightenment has taken
hold, democracy is what is going
to be the form of culture.
There are some people who
comment on Tocqueville
as saying he is actually
very sympathetic still
to the old Aristocracy,
the old regime
and therefore he is trying
to look for grounds of hope
for those who are
still interested
in [inaudible] structures,
where can we find the vestiges
of Aristocracy in the United
States and that is part
of what he keys on in
those particular moments,
but he really thinks that
democracy is the wave
of the future and
with it a number
of other concepts
that go with it.

disappear
until all that was
visible was the splatters
and skeins of paint
we all now think
of when we think of Pollock.
The titles dropped away
too, and he began to number
his paintings like
musical compositions.
There was no
sketching in advance,
but it wasn't just paint
flung willy nilly, at least
most of the time.
To a considerable
degree, he controlled
his flow of paint and
distribution of color.
He knew what kinds of motions
and what tools and paints
produce certain results.
He decided what to cover over
and what to let show through.
His all-over compositions betray
a keen awareness of the edges.
And after jags of activity,
he would stop and take
stock of what he'd done before
entering back in or deciding
the work was resolved.
Pollock once responded
to a critic's remarks
by telegramming Time
magazine saying simply,
"No chaos damn it."
This new work did
have its critics.
It was described as
a child's contour
map of the Battleof Gettysburg
and a mop of tangled hair.
Then and now, people
likened his dripping
to bodily spillage--
vomit, pee, ejaculate.
But there were
many who championed
this radical departure,
notably the Museum of Modern
Art and art critic,
Clement Greenberg, who

of the pictorial into sheer

Pollock became a

thanks to media attention
and the revelatory images
made by photographer Hans Namuth
of Pollock painting in 1950.
Namath also made a short film

painting on glass.

Rosenberg, called this kind

In Houston, Nolan Ryan
became the first pitcher
to strike out 4,000
batters on July 11th, when
the 38-year-old hurler fanned
New York Mets' outfielder Danny
Heep during the
bottom of the sixth.
Breaking ball, and that's it.
Strike out number
4,000 for Nolan Ryan.
Considered one of the
greatest pitchers ever,
Ryan is known for three things.
He has the current MLB record
for most career strikeouts,
with 5,714.
Ryan could hit 100 miles
per hour on the radar gun,
until he retired at 46 and

Watch out.
Back to '85.
And on July 13th,
the music industry
from England and America hosted
simultaneous music festivals
at Wembley Stadium in London
and John F. Kennedy Stadium
in Philadelphia.
It was a joint
effort to raise funds
for relief of the
ongoingEthiopian famine.
While musicians like David
Bowie, U2, Paul McCartney,
and Queen headlined
Wembley, the Philly crowd
saw a shaky Led Zeppelin
reunion, peak Madonna,
Mick Jagger with Tina
Turner, and Tom Petty.
Of course, you also
have the show-off.
After his set at
Wembley Stadium,
Phil Collins caught the Concorde
and landed in Philadelphia
in time to do a
second set at JFK.
The next month, on August
26th, 13-year-old Ryan White

Ryan became a national poster
child for AIDS in the US
after his school
administrators barred him
from attending classes
in person once he
acquired the disease from a
contaminated blood transfusion.
Fast forward a year later
to August 31st, 1986,
when Ryan enrolled at Hamilton

save lives,
but not everyone believed him.
Journalist William Cobbett
called Rush a quack.
In all fairness to Rush, he
probably sincerely believed
his own science.
When he himself took
ill with yellow fever,
he administered his own
treatment and lived.
In the absence of a
verifiable explanation,
the founding fathers
strongly disagreed over
what was causing the outbreak.
Benjamin Rush suggested rotten
food being sold at the wharf
was infecting people via miasma,
the now debunked theory that
disease is spread via bad
smells and polluted air.
However, Alexander Hamilton, who
was not throwing away his shot
to win the argument,
believed the disease
was being spread
by white refugees
fleeing conflicts
in the Caribbean.
The two also argued
over the best treatment.
Rush recommended bloodletting
and mercury purges.
Hamilton, on the
other hand, promoted
what was called the West Indian
treatment, which was also known
as the bark and wine cure.
Hamilton's proposed
treatment was quinine bark,
which, while effective
against malaria,
didn't actually help
with yellow fever.
Still, though, givencause of the epidemic.
Rush, however, never
made the connection.
At the time of the
epidemic, Philadelphia
was arguably the most important
city in the United States.
Washington DC was still
under construction,
so Congress and the
president worked out
of the city of brotherly love.
It also had the busiest
port in the nation,
which would become the
subject of much debate
during the outbreak.
With goods and people
arriving every day,
many felt the fever must
have made its way into Philly
through the port.
Both Hamilton and Rush had their
eye on it at various points,
with Hamilton blaming
refugees, and Rush
blaming polluted goods.
The yellow fever
outbreak of 1793
brought Philadelphia
to its knees.
By October, 5,000 were dead,
and another 20,000 had fled.
By the time it was all over, one
of the most important populous
cities in a proud new nation
was literally decimated.
1 in 10 Philadelphians had died.
Samuel Breck later
reflected on the fact
that the lower classes | {

The significance of the name of the

that rivais in importance the output of
the mine itself. Estimates have al

The company has adopted the method
of handling the product of its mine
from the moment it is dug out of the

the consumer.
Ground has been leased and contracts
for buildings let in some interior towns

So the police went in and
arrested quite a few of them
and showed brute force.
But it didn't stop them.
The next Monday, 70,000
were on the street.
East Germany had pulled
together everything
they had in terms of
mobile police, tanks.
The hospitals were
stacked up blood reserves.
Schools and camps were
cleared for internment camps.
Everything was done for
the Chinese solution.
And then, thanks to
the commander-in-chief
of the Leipzig police
force, he ordered retreat.
He ordered his men to
guard the armored vehicles,
but not to interceded.
And 70,000 were allowed to
walk through the entire street,
putting candles in front of
the secret police headquarter,
in front of the
party headquarter.
And then a week later,
Berlin had 500,000
to a million-- the numbers
are not finally determined.
But 500,000 to a million
went on the street
to demonstrate for free
elections, free travel,
and generally a bend in the
mandate of the Communist Party
and the tyranny of
the secret police.

Bernauer Strasse,
one of the biggest
border crossings,
there were about 20,000 people
demanding to cross the border.
The border control at the
point was manned by 16 people.
They had about 25 AK47
rifles and a couple
small, whatever, grenades.
But nothing serious in getting
those numbers under control.
So what they did in
the first attempt is
they grabbed those people who
were shouting the loudest,
grabbed them, stamped
their documents "invalid"
and shoved them over
to West Germany.
The people didn't know that
it was stamped "invalid,"
they just know, oh, I can go.
But they had orders
to everybody who
has that stamp to never
let them in again.
So they got about 500
people out of this group--
they grabbed and pushed
over to the West.
And then they thought they
have handled this problem.
But they hadn't.
Because on the western
side, the West German TV
was filming, and said, well
the border is really open.
Now people are coming.

Peter Fechter is the
most horrid and the worst
demonstration of the
East German inhumanity.
Because he was fleeing
with his friends,
and they already crossed
the strip that then became
named Death Strip.
And they were
climbing the last wall
when the police opened fire.
Both were hit.
His friend crossed the border.
He fell back into the
eastern-controlled section,
and laid there for an hour, and
screamed, and bled, and died.
And nobody did anything.
On the Western side,
there was reporters.
There were hundreds of people.
There was even US military
with direct orders
not to interfere, because it
was East German territory.
And on the east side, the
East German border control
did nothing, because they
were afraid of the Westerners
interfering.
So they stood there
and waited for an hour
before they carried
his body away.
And this is the moment when
the hopes of a fast resolution
of that problem-- of an easy
way back to a unified Germany--
died, withPeter Fechter.
And the Wall grew.
The Wall became a reality.
For the Westerners, it became
a macabre tourist attraction,
with platforms where
they could look over.
And for the Eastern, it
became the end of the world.
A fortification even the
Romans would have dreamed on.
And we will go into
how thoroughly they
built this fortification
in a moment.
What you have to imagine is
that it is a 3.5 million city.
It is after the war.
Apartments are scarce.
Buildings are still destroyed.
People are living in
very cramped places.
And what East Germany did-- it
cleared a strip of-- between
on the narrowest point,
it's about 90 feet
on the widest point.
It was half a mile, where
they cleared everything.

there to get them free
roam of shooting.
The actual border was a line on
the Western side of the Wall.

the South
to the industrial cities of the North.
This was a moment when the
agricultural traditions
of the United States
were being transformed,
and we were becoming an
increasingly industrial culture.
So when you look at this
painting, you can imagine
how vividly this must
have expressed that new,
industrial modernism and
how threatening that was.
A foreign figure in this new city
- Yes.
- with people bustling,
disassociated from the land.
It seems to cut across everything
that people had understood as American.
- [Woman] In 1924, President
Coolidge, in signing
the Johnson-Reed Act, said that,
"America must remain American."
This quote and this act come after a wave
of anti-immigration sentiment.
And this, tied with fears around the rise
of industrialization and
concerns about the economy,
lead to the rise of the Ku Klux Klan.
And Geller and the Jewish
communities in the United States
are living amidst
heightened anti-Semitism.
And the fears about what
was happening elsewhere
Azerbaijani:
dünya bura gələn qoca biri də ola bilər.
English:
in the world also contribute to this.
World War I and the revolutions in Russia
and elsewhere lead to
concerns about influences
coming into the United
States through immigration,
but there was this tremendous
dynamic between different
communities and cultures
happening in Chicago.
And at the same time, in
the wake of World War I,
we see nativism emerging
on a national scale.
- [Man] Geller isn't representing
his own experience directly.
He came to the United
States as a young man,
but we know that Geller
was part of a community
that was thinking about
what Jewish identity meant
as it became part of American culture.
Could it remain Jewish,
and also become American?

of him very
often as a person with
insecurities and ambitions,
as a person with political
savvy--he actually was very
politically savvy--
as a person with specific
political ideas and ideals,
right?
We don't tend to even attribute
many ideas to him at all.
We just think of him as capital
"L"
leader, but in fact he's all of
these things.
He is a person and all that
that entails.
That said, even during his
lifetime, he was already being
shaped into a legend.
Right?
The title "Father of His
Country"
is a title that was given to
him even before the country
finally existed.
The Revolution's not over yet,
and some people are calling him
Father of His Country,
so this happens pretty--at a
pretty early point to
Washington,
that he ascends into this
position.
Now as I'm sure you've gathered
by this time in the course,
John Adams is a little jealous
of other people who appear to be
gettinggreat
leader and was from Virginia,
and so he was treated like a
great leader.
There was actually some truth
to what he's saying.
I'm going to talk a little bit
about that today.
And, as Adams suggests,
it's true that Washington
didn't have the same sort of
formal education that someone
like Jefferson or Madison or
even Adams had,
but he was more than a man who
just looked the part.
Now it is true that in some
ways Washington was sort of like
any other Virginia gentleman.
As Adams says,
he's a large landowner.
He had inherited his estate,
Mount Vernon,
from his father and then
enlarged it himself.
Like a lot of other Virginia
gentlemen he was a skilled
horseman, which was a very
prized skill in Virginia.
You probably remember or maybe
you might remember earlier in
the course I talked about
William Maclay sitting next to a
Virginian at a dinner party and

about
Alexander.
Who played Aristotle in that
film, do you remember?
Student: Anthony Hopkins.
Professor Steven Smith:
Anthony Hopkins,
excellent.
Was it Anthony Hopkins?
I have in my notes here it was
Christopher Plummer.
I'll have to check.
I'll have to Google that when I
go home.
Maybe you're right.
I have a feeling it was Anthony
Hopkins.
Whoever, he was an excellent
Aristotle, didn't have a large
enough part in the film.
In any case,
Aristotle returned to Athens
later on and established a
school of his own,
a rival to the Platonic Academy
that he called the Lyceum.
There is a story that near the
end of his life,
Aristotle was himself brought
up on capital charges,
as was Socrates,
due to another wave of
hostility to philosophy.
But rather unlike Socrates,
rather in staying to drink the
hemlock, Aristotle left Athens
and was reported to have said he
did not wish to see the
Athenians sin against philosophy
for a second time.
I'll go backwhat
we would think of as a political
scientist.
He collected constitutions,
158 of them in all,
from throughout the ancient
world.
He was the first to give some
kind of conceptual rigor to the
vocabulary of political life.
Above all, Aristotle's works,
like the Politics and
the Nicomachean Ethics,
were explicitly intended as
works of political instruction,
political education.
They seem to be designed less
to recruit philosophers and
potential philosophers than to
shape and educate citizens and
future statesmen.
His works seem less theoretical
in the sense of constructing
abstract models of political
life than advice-giving,
in the sense of serving as a
sort of civic-minded arbiter of
public disputes.
Unlike Socrates,
who famously in his image in
Book VII of the Republic,
compared political life to a
cave, and unlike the
Apology where Socrates
tells his fellow citizens that
their lives,
because unexamined,
are not worth living,
Aristotle takes seriously the
dignity of the city and showed
the way that philosophy might be

and Princeton,
the city was richly supplied
with collections and libraries
and rapidly becoming
a cultural and intellectual
center of importance.
Looking back now,
we can see that Carter Brown
grasped the significance
and potential of Washington's
growth as a cultural capital,
as it was in fact recently
defined by Neil Harris
in his "Capital Culture: J.
Carter Brown, the National
Gallery of Art,
and the Reinvention
of the Museum Experience,"
published in 2013.
The National Foundation
on the Arts and Humanities Act
had been passed in 1965
because as it was stated,
democracy demands wisdom
and vision in its citizens.
And the Kennedy Center
was finally under construction
between 1967 and 1971.
Carter Brown's visionary plan,
which recognized the importance
of scholarly contacts
within and beyond the United
States, was the result
of discussions
with a remarkable group
of international scholars
and directors
of other scientific institutes,
as well as public figures.
His report determined
that the National Gallery
on the National Mall
was an ideal place to establish
anational center for the study
of the visual arts.
It was, as he saw it,
independent
of the special interests
of individual universities,
and it was small
and streamlined enough
to be flexible and responsive
to the needs of such
an institute.
From the very beginning, it was
recognized that fellows-- and we
see some of our more recent
fellows here--
who were to be known as members,
like those at the Institute
for Advanced Study at Princeton,
to avoid confusion
with other fellows
at the Gallery, should be chosen
on merit
and not limited
to any particular field,
though the center of gravity
should be of areas of interest
to the Gallery
or represented
in other Washington collections.
And of course, this immediately
opened up
the worldwide collections
of the Smithsonian, Dumbarton
Oaks,
and other nearby institutions.
At this moment
in the late 1960s,
there was also a good deal
of discussion
about the Gallery's library

■ A US federal judge made an
historical ruling against tobacco
companies. A claim filed in 2004
alleged that products were misleading consumers by marketing
“light” cigarettes as comparatively safe. The ruling in favour
of this claim could pave the way
for a class-action suit that would
include millions of smokers, making it the largest civil law suit that
America has ever seen. Share
prices in tobacco companies fell

Oil prices rallied after representatives from the Organisation
of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) informally agreed
to cut output by 1 million barrels
per day. The move was the first
reduction since 2004, and was
widely anticipated after Nigeria
and Venezuela announced they
would step down production. The
move come amidst concerns that
oil prices would fall if the market
became oversupplied.

of the Federalist
administration of John Adams,
the president made a
flurry of appointments.
One of those was
for William Marbury
to be a Justice of the
Peace in Washington, DC.
Marbury's commissions to that
post was signed by Adams.
It was sealed by the
then Secretary of State.
But it was not delivered by
the brother of that Secretary
to whom it was entrusted.
Marbury didn't get it.
Thus, this and other
commissions were
found on the first day
of work of the Republican
Administration of
Thomas Jefferson.
And his own Secretary
of State, James Madison,
did not deliver that commission.
And so this being
America, Marbury sued.
The case was brought as a
trial in the first instance
in the Supreme
Court, and today will
be argued as if it were
essentially cross motions
for summary judgment.
The court there recognized
three questions.
Did Marbury have a legal
right to that commission?
If so, was there a legal
remedy for the deprivation
of that right?
AndLee,
the former attorney general
in the Adams administration,
was destined to become the uncle
of another Lee, General Robert
E. Lee, born just a few
years after the argument.
Kathleen Sullivan here
steps into the role
of Levi Lincoln, the attorney
general for the Jefferson
Administration.
But unlike Lincoln,
she will actually
and most ably argue the case.
It is hard for us
to imagine today,
but Lincoln declined
the chance to argue
Marbury versus Madison--

Other teachers go further, questioning
the degree to which the
process can be manipulated. The
extensive assessment requires
teachers to compile four portfolios
of classroom materials, including
two videotapes of their teaching,
and take six tests that ask teachers
to apply their knowledge to
classroom situations at their grade
level and in their subject area.
“Teachers may appear one way
on video and another way the majority
of the time, and that concerns
me,” said Suzanne A. Newsom,
who teaches English at the
Renaissance School of Olympic
High School in Charlotte, N.C.
She is waiting to hear if resubmissions
of two of the 10 elements
required by the board will win her
the credential. She passed the
videotaped portions on the first
round.
Elaine Kasmer, a high school
art teacher in Baltimore County,
Md., who entered the profession
after a career as an illustrator,
thinks she knows whyMr.
Goldhaber found in research published
this year that North Carolina
teachers getting the credential
made it more likely they would
move to better-off schools than the
ones where they taught at the time
they applied. Nationally certified
teachers were also more likely to
leave the state, according to the research,
which was supported by
the NBPTS.
The research suggests that
teachers, at least in North Carolina,
recognize that national certification
gives them greater mobility
in the job market and they
take advantage of it. North Carolina
is one of 30 states that allow
transplanted teachers to bypass
state certification requirements if
they have the NBPTS seal.
Some observers of the program
in North Carolina, which has
more than 11,000 teachers with

largest number in the nation,
have criticized it as state subsidization
of better-off school districts.

1569, came the revolt of the
northern earls.
That began with a plot to
release Mary,
Queen of Scots from captivity,
to marry her to the Duke of
Norfolk,
who was a crypto-Catholic,
to restore her to the Scottish
throne with the help of the
Spanish army,
which was just over the seas in
the Netherlands,
and to depose Elizabeth.
When the scheme was discovered
by Elizabeth's intelligence
service the earls of
Northumberland and of
Westmorland,
the two dominant nobles of the
north,
rose in rebellion.
They raised about 5,000 men.
They captured the city of
Durham.
They restored the mass in

They moved gradually south.
The government responded to the
rising by securing Mary and
moving her south out of their
reach.
She was placed under the
tutelage of the Earl of
Shrewsbury down in the Midlands.
The northern earls failed to
move swiftly.
They got bogged down besieging
a castle near Durham which was
held by the loyal Bowesfamily
for Elizabeth and eventually
realizing that their support was
eroding they gave up and fled
into Scotland.
There then followed two years
of diplomatic and military
bullying before eventually the
Earl of Northumberland was
surrendered back to the English
and was executed.
By then the rebellion was long
over.
By December 1569,
it had proved to be a fiasco
and had fizzled out,
but in February 1570,
rather too late,
the Pope, having heard of it,
offered his support.
He excommunicated Elizabeth and
he absolved her subjects from
their obedience to the Queen.
He was telling her Catholic
subjects,
in other words,
that rebellion against this
heretic queen was no sin--
a little too late,
but nonetheless at last a
clarifying decision on the part
of the papacy with regard to
Elizabeth.
For the Catholic subjects of
the Queen in 1568 to '70 one
could say the moment of truth
had at last come.
At last there had been

actually started while
Luckman was still work-ing
on Rokker V, a piece he
did for the University of
Minnesota. He met David
Held and they casually dis-cussed
doing a show to-gether.
In late September-early
October the two men
started seriously discuss-.
ing a cooperative venture.
"I wanted to work with
another artist—a sound
artist," said Luckman.
"Also," said Luckman, "Da-vid
(Held) said he wanted
to do a three-dimensional,
environmental thing."
According to Luckman
this type of thing was a
first for both of them. Al-though
the piece has been
in the planning for months,
"on napkins and scraps,"
according to Luckman,
actual building began in
January. The group had to
wait for the shipment of
tubes.
Luckman's germinal
idea had something to do
with using the gallery
space as part of a piece. He
also wanted to make the
gallery seem unstable. He
had to find a means to
convey that idea.
"Eventually I thought of
forms driving through the
floor: leaning, tilting, using
the floor as aof the snow monkeys.

Students set up camp in LRC
by Ginger Hope
In an apparent attempt
not to be outdone by the
winter wilderness camp-ers,
a group of rugged in-doorsmen
embarked on a
daring overnight expedi-tion
into Bethel's own final
frontier: the LRC.
Having skillfully evad-ed
observation by main-tenance
crews and secur-ity
personnel, two scouts
signaled the "all clear" to
their seven cohorts. The
nine then set up camp in
the LRC's dark upper level.
This was no backyard
slumber party, but a full-scale
operation complete
with tents, snowshoes,
and cast-iron fry-pan over
a flameless campfire. Pot-ted
trees were temporarily
imported from the Bethel
halls to enhance the un-tamed
forest wilderness
effect.
What does one do to
pass the time at an LRC
camp-out? "Oh, we sang
songs, and explored the
surrounding area—you
know, the usual camping
stuff," said one camper.
"I wrote a paper," said
another. There's one in
every crowd.
At 6:15 a.m. the crew
moved camp to the main
level of the LRC. Their
presence seemed | {

Largo Cristina di Svezia 24 06 4991 7107. Mon–Sat: April–Oct 9am–6.30pm; Nov–March 9am–5.30pm. €8. MAP
The Orto Botanico occupies the eastern side of the Janiculum Hill. It's a pleasantly neglected expanse these days where you can clamber up to high stands of bamboo and ferns cut by rivulets of water, stroll through a wood of century-old oaks, cedars and conifers, and relax in a grove of acclimatized palm trees. There's also a herbal garden with medicinal plants, a collection of orchids that bloom in springtime and early summer, and a garden of aromatic herbs put together for the blind. The garden alsogeranium; hard before h, as in garlic.
sci or sce are pronounced as in sheet and shelter respectively.
gn has the ni sound of onion.
gl in Italian is softened to a sound similar to lyi, as in stallion.
h is not aspirated, as in honour.

They are very reliable

All of this,
on an engine that they had
not designed themselves.
This represents the best of SpaceX
and the reason for their
absolute superiority
in the launch industry.
They took the engine they
could afford to develop
and honed it into becoming one
of the best in the industry.
The same engine powered
trailblazing Falcon 1,
their workhorse for the Falcon 9,
and the colossal Falcon Heavy.
This earned them the
CRS contracts from NASA,
which were essential to SpaceX's survival
in its early days.
It brought on their
most important clients.
Iridium, SES, NROL, foreign governments,
and private satellites.
This provided them with
the capital they needed
to survive and continue developing
towards their goal of
interplanetary spaceflight.

The Blue Moon lander can be launched
with a variety of rockets
apart from New Glenn,
including the Space Launch
System, Vulcan, or Atlas V.
When NASA solicited a crew

they quickly partnered

to make a very strong bid.
They also worked with Maxar
on the Gateway's power

Blue's Low Earth Orbit
Space Station concept
showed a very similar module on top,

While SpaceX picked the locations
of the manufacturing at Hawthorne,

and launch sites at the Cape based
on feasibility, affordability
and convenience,

more politically motivated.

constructed; a saloon followed: a med

as an annex to the store and then

counting fence on Scotch Creek was
operational on August 9th; 3,498
sockeye have passed through the fence to date.
Most sockeye observed are reported
to be in good condition, but some have
lesions. Visual surveys of Early Summer-run streams
that are tributary to the
North and South Thompson Rivers
began on August 10th. Sockeye have now
been
observed in the Lower Adams, Anstey,
Eagle, Lower Momich, and Seymour Rivers as
well as Cayenne Creek. Sockeye in the Upper Barriere River are
reported to be
nearing peak of spawning. The first aerial and ground surveys of the
Bowron
River were conducted on September
2nd. Sockeye are reported to be nearing
the
start of peak spawning
activity. The Chilko River
hydroacoustic site was
operational on August 8th. Sockeye numbers continue to steadily increase
with
very few observations of pre-spawn
mortality to date.Carcass recovery

migration into the system has
remained steady but overall migration levels are
relatively low. Visual surveys of the Quesnel system began on
August 27th.
Sockeye have only been observed in
the Horsefly River thus far, and fish there
are reported to be either holding or

dispensation, a real sense
of triumph in the West
of the ultimate victory
of Western values, of Western
democracy, of what you
might call neoliberal
economics market.
Economics has many
terms for it, but a sort
of modulated capitalism
like what we have now.
And indeed, British diplomats
were sent particularly
to Eastern Europe to
share the know-how of how
we ran democracy and
capitalism in the West
to help other countries
live like we did.
Francis Fukuyama was often
misquoted as calling it
the end of history.
But a sense of us
having reached some kind
of apogee irreversibly in
the human project very much
suffused the air in places
like the Foreign Office.
And indeed, I was a believer.
I very much believed
in that system.
I believed that sensible
people in government,
like me, had the ability, the
competence, the knowledge,
and indeed, the authority
to make decisions
on behalf of the whole.
For that is the premise of
representativethe Middle East
in the British Delegation
to the United Nations, which
was an amazing, amazing job.
I was responsible for dealing
with Middle East issues
at the UN Security Council
negotiating resolutions,
statements.
And in those days, the
UN Security Council
was an incredible cockpit
of world diplomacy,
of world affairs.
And we were dealing with
extraordinarily important
issues, from Israel Palestine,
to the occupation of Western
Sahara, to the Libya
Lockerbie issue,
and, above all, Iraq and its
weapons of mass destruction.
And I was responsible for
that issue in the British
Delegation.
And I was the main
British liaison
with the weapons inspectors.
So I got to know,
in great detail,
all about weapons
of mass destruction.
I could tell you the
residual chemicals
left by the nerve gas,
VX, after it has been
left in a desert for 10 years.
I could tell you the
