Vincent Callebaut Architectures Reveals Tribute to Notre-Dame with Rooftop Farm

Vincent Callebaut Architectures has unveiled images of their tribute to Notre-Dame Cathedral following the fire that badly damaged the historic structure. A transcendent project that forms a symbol of a resilient and ecological future, the project is inspired by biomimicry and a common ethic for a fairer symbiotic relationship between humans and nature.
The Palingenesis project, derived from the Greek word for "rebirth" and "regeneration," aims to blend in naturally as a single stroke between the roof and spire. From the four gables, the original geometry of the 10-meter-high attic has been respected, with 55-degree pitched roofs gradually stretching to shape a vertical spire. Respecting the inherent principles of the building's structural loads towards the flying buttresses and inner fasciculated pillars, the four roofing lines and four lines of the roof's ribs bend and join together in harmony towards the sky, producing a parametric and light geometry.
Constructed of cross-laminated timber beams, the scheme's oak frame seeks to use the minimum amount of material to ensure a low carbon footprint while offering transparency to the cathedral. Atop the spire, the rooster located and found in the rubble will crown the scheme, remaining a "spiritual lightning rod" and "protector of the faithful."
The new architecture of the spire, like a shroud raised from the keystone of the transept crossing, evokes the rebirth but also the mystery of the cathedral and the resurrection of Christ. And under the shroud, life and renewal emerge. Notre-Dame dazzles the world again while amplifying her universal message of peace and her spiritual aspiration.
-Vincent Callebaut Architectures
Central to Callebaut scheme is the idea of turning Notre-Dame into a positive energy building, producing more energy than it consumes. Through energetic solidarity with the body of the historic monument, the contemporary, three-dimensional Gothic stained glass graft produces the scheme's energy, heat, and passive ventilation.
The wooden frame is covered in three-dimensional crystal glass subdivided into faceted diamond-shaped elements. Consisting of an organic active layer, this cocktail of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen will absorb light and transform it into power. The energy, stored within hydrogen fuel cells, will be directly redistributed throughout the cathedral.
The roof-spire in the cathedral attic also provides a thermal buffer space, which accumulates hot air in winter to better isolate the cathedral, and vents with fresh air in the summer through the evapotranspiration of plants. Thus, the cathedral would become an exemplary eco-engineering structure and the Church a true pioneer in environmental resiliency.
At its heart, the project features a garden devoted to contemplation and meditation. Going beyond aesthetics, the garden is to be cultivated by volunteers and charitable associations. Aquaponics and permaculture produce up to 25kg of fruit and vegetables per square meter per year. Therefore, up to 21 tons of fruits and vegetables could be harvested and directly redistributed for free each year. To that end, a farmers' market would be held every week on the forecourt of Notre-Dame.
This urban farm is arranged atop the Latin-cross plan of the roof and set in planters, which essentially redraw the layout of six-part vaults on the ground. This geometric garden "à la française" relies on a double-deck structure with light soil to grow its fruits and vegetables along the nave, from East to West, from the two towers to the apse. In the North-South axis, the roofs of the transept host aquaponic basins feeding plants with natural, fish fertilizers. Moreover, these water mirrors expand the place by reflecting the rose windows on the North and South side gables.

A Wine and Sandwich pairing that made us smile from the inside!
A beautifully warm summer's evening in the heart of Wimbledon, we gathered around 50 people, and around 50 bottles of wine and bubbly, and embarked on a fun filled evening of great wine, delicious sandwiches and an interesting insight into the Feel Good Bakery and their work.
Wine tasting is a fabulous way to socialise, network and spread the word about great causes – that's what the 'Hannibal Brown Presents…' Series is all about!
The Feel Good Bakery told their story and brought in new business, we had lots of people enjoying our delicious wines and we raised money and awareness for this fantastic cause too!

We live in a world surrounded by quite a few issues which are either related to the know-how, the latest gadgets or the newest fashion. Fashion trends are frippery that makes us appear like the remainder of the world. Given that fashion designers started to experiment with the shapes of garment, loose sleeveless, micro-minis, flared skirts, and trumpet sleeves. It's the identical immediately, however the method has sped up considerably, with the best taste in clothes, an avid fashion shopper, let alone a designer, can turn into well-known in a matter of weeks.
In addition to long lead times, fashion producers are confused to constantly design and develop new product lines to take care of retailers' interest and enhance client sales.

Gaston Thomson (Oran, 29 januari 1848 - Bône, 14 mei 1932), was een Frans politicus.

Biografie
Gaston Thomson werd op 29 januari 1848 geboren in Oran in het huidige Algerije. Hij was een verwant van Léon Gambetta, een Franse premier. In 1877 werd hij als gematigde republikein in de Kamer van Afgevaardigden (Chambre des Députés) gekozen voor het departement Constantine. Hij bleef een recordtijd van 55 jaar (tot zijn dood in 1932) lid van de Kamer van Afgevaardigden. Hij vergaderde telkens met de gematigde republikeinse groepen in het Franse parlement, zoals de Républicains de Gauche (Alliance Républicaine Démocratique) en - vanaf 1924 - de Gauche Radicale. Tijdens de Dreyfusaffaire was hij een gepassioneerd Dreyfusard.

Gaston Thomson was van 24 januari 1905 tot 22 oktober 1908 minister van Marine. In die functie hield hij zich vooral bezig met de modernisering van de marine. Hij gaf de opdracht tot de bouw van moderne pantserschepen en kruisers waarna de Franse marine de tweede van de wereld werd (na het Verenigd Koninkrijk). Zijn modernisering van de marine werd voortgezet door zijn opvolgers, in het bijzonder Georges Leygues.

Van 13 juni 1914 tot 29 oktober 1915 was hij minister van Posterijen, Telegrafie, Telefonie en Handel in de oorlogskabinetten-Viviani.

Gaston Thomson overleed op 84-jarige leeftijd.

Ministerschappen
Minister van Marine in de kabinetten-Rouvier I (24 januari 1905 - 18 februari 1906), Rouvier II (18 februari - 6 maart 1906), Sarrien (14 maart - 22 oktober 1908) en Clemenceau I (25 oktober 1906 - 20 juli 1909)
Minister van Posterijen, Telegrafie en Telefonie in de kabinetten Viviani I en II (13 juni 1914 - 29 oktober 1915)

In the majority of federal cases, the defendant pleads guilty and does not go to trial. A defendant can plead guilty "open," or without a plea agreement, or can strike a deal with the prosecutor and have a written contract (a plea agreement) drafted with the terms of the plea.
A defendant has a right to be informed of every plea offer made by the government. The defense attorney will also explain the terms of the plea agreement, will discuss a defendant's sentencing exposure at trial or through the proposed plea, and will review the good and bad evidence that awaits a defendant at trial. Ultimately, however, it is the defendant's decision alone on whether to take a plea offer from the prosecutor.

St Paul's is a Grade II* listed Anglican church at Queen Caroline Street, Hammersmith, London W6, adjacent to Hammersmith flyover, and only a short walk from Hammersmith tube station.

History

The original church
The church dates back to the 17th century. The 2nd Earl of Mulgrave purchased the land in 1629, and the main contributor to the building fund (£700) was the wealthy merchant Sir Nicholas Crispe, who had lived since 1625 in a house on the riverside in Hammersmith. The foundation stone was laid on 11 March 1630, and the chapel of ease was consecrated by Archbishop Laud on 7 June 1631.

The present church
Hammersmith was developing rapidly, helped by the arrival of the new Metropolitan Railway. At a public meeting held on 20 January 1880, the decision was taken to rebuild the church on the same site. It was felt that the building was no longer big enough to accommodate the growing population and 'The old unsightly structure is not worthy of being the chief witness to God in the midst of such an important Metropolitan Suburb as Hammersmith has now become.' In July 1882 the Duke of Albany laid the foundation stone, and the nave of the new church was consecrated on 13 October 1883. The architects were J. P. Seddon and H. R. Gough.

Like St Peter's Church in Hammersmith, St Paul's lost a significant portion of its land, including that with graves, when Hammersmith Flyover and the Great West Road were built in 1957–61.

Hammersmith Chess Club briefly used the Church Hall as their home venue from 1970 to 1975, before later moving on to Blythe House.

In 1983, the church pews were removed and replaced with more flexible seating.

In the 2000s, an extension was built onto the western end of the church, incorporating a new hall and kitchen, and accompanied by a major restoration programme. The work was done by Bryen & Langley and the extension was opened in 2011.

The church has strong ties with the nearby Latymer Upper School, which gathers at the church on its Founder's Day each year.

Exterior
The church is designed in the Early English Gothic Style, with lancet windows, powerful buttresses, a high roof and an imposing tower.

Interior

The internal dimensions of St Paul's Church are: length 190 ft (57.9m), width 73 ft (22.25 m), height 63 ft (19.2m). It was designed to seat 1,400 people. The walls are of brown Ancaster stone, with Belgian marble used for the clustered columns and wall-linings. There are six bays, formed by the five main columns on each side, with white and blue Bath stone used for the arches and some carved decoration.

The most interesting feature inside the church is a bust of King Charles I, sculpted by Hubert Le Sueur and erected by Sir Nicholas Crispe. After the King's execution in 1649, the heart of Crispe, enclosed in a small urn, was placed below this monument. The inscription on the urn reads:

In 1898 his body and heart were both moved to a new tomb.

The pulpit came from the former church of All-Hallows-the-Great in the City of London.

There is also a memorial to William Tierney Clark, designer of the first Hammersmith Bridge, in the church.

The stained glass windows of the church were made by Clayton and Bell. Those on the north side depict the life of Saint Paul, the apostle of the Church; while those on the south side depict the life of Saint Peter, the other apostle who is usually paired with Paul.

Burials

Sir Nicholas Crispe, merchant
 Samuel Morland, inventor
 Richard Honey, carpenter, and George Francis, bricklayer, both killed by troops during the funeral procession of Queen Caroline of Brunswick in 1821.

Answer: Ascent is a state where I can justify anything that is happening to me, to justify the friends and the group by seeing them as angels helping me to realize my free will and to reach the goal. From the elements of this condition, I can assemble myself and my relationship with the Creator who is revealed within such a state.
The group, home, work, studies, health, and so forth comprise the components of my state. I have to determine that all of them are secondary in relation to the group. I have to "collect" everything but the group and enter the group with it even though the group is just one element among the many others. In the group, I also have to discern the multiple components until I select only the one: the desire to attain the Creator.
I go deeper and deeper in this work and these discernments, into the center. I am as if coming to the King's palace from afar until I finally reach it. I narrow down and contract my focus verifying the route until I come to the goal.
At first, I feel there is a whole world around me. Soon, I see that there is only the group and the various situations within it. It remains so until I come to the realization of a very simple scheme: Everything around me is merely angels, forces aiming me at the Creator and helping me to reach Him.
What is this group? Is it a local group closest to me or the world group? The group is all souls. We begin with the entire world and gradually contract the circle.
The group for me starts with the physical bodies, the people I know around the world to whom I feel are connected to me through the common goal. These are the people who understand and sense me despite the fact that I don't know them in person. However, in the spiritual world, we reside in one collective system. In this world, we may not have ever met, but in the spiritual one, we are together.
It is, undoubtedly, an opportunity for salvation because we are connected, support, and depend on one another. It's not only the people of my generation who exist today in a similar state in relation to the Creator, but all the Kabbalists of the past beginning with Adam who was the first to discover the Creator 5770 years ago and to realize free will.
From that moment, the created being, a point of desire, began its journey of attaining similarity with the Creator. Since then and until today, all Kabbalists connected by this goal belong in one system regardless of their rung on the spiritual ladder. In regard to those who are not yet working in this system, they also belong in it, but we have to awaken them.
As a woman, when I think of adhesion with the Creator, do I go through the men or directly?

Position of Hands During Ruku` (Hadith No. 756)
Narrated Mus'ab bin Sa'd:
I offered prayer beside my father and approximated both my hands and placed them in between the knees. My father told me not to do so and said, "We used to do the same but we were forbidden (by the Prophet) to do it and were ordered to place the hands on the knees."
That, is how you do ruku`.

22 Takbirs (Ahadith 751-755)
Narrated Imran bin Husain:
I offered the prayer with 'Ali in Basra and he made us remember the prayer which we used to pray with Allah's Apostle. 'Ali said Takbir on each rising and bowing.
Narrated Abu Salama:
When Abu Huraira led us in prayer he used to say Takbir on each bowing and rising. On the completion of the prayer he used to say, "My prayer is more similar to the prayer of Allah's Apostle than that of anyone of you."
Narrated Mutarrif bin 'Abdullah:
'Imran bin Husain and I offered the prayer behind Ali bin Abi Talib. When 'Ali prostrated, he said the Takbir, when he raised his head, he said the Takbir and when he got up for the third Rak'a he said the Takbir. On completion of the prayer Imran took my hand and said, "This (i.e. 'Ali) made me remember the prayer of Muhammad" Or he said, "He led us in a prayer like that of Muhammad."
Narrated 'Ikrima:
I saw a person praying at Muqam-lbrahim (the place of Abraham by the Ka'ba) and he was saying Takbir on every bowing, rising, standing and sitting. I asked Ibn 'Abbas (about this prayer). He admonished me saying: "Isn't that the prayer of the Prophet?"
I prayed behind a Sheikh at Mecca and he said twenty two Takbirs (during the prayer). I told Ibn 'Abbas that he (i.e. that Sheikh) was foolish. Ibn 'Abbas admonished me and said, "This is the tradition of Abu-l-Qasim." And narrated Abu Huraira: Whenever Allah's Apostle stood for the prayer, he said Takbir on starting the prayer and then on bowing. On rising from bowing he said, "Sami' a-l-lahu liman hamida," and then while standing straight he used to say, "Rabbana laka-l hamd" (Al-Laith said, "(The Prophet said), 'Walaka-l-hamd'." He used to say Takbir on prostrating and on raising his head from prostration; again he would say Takbir on prostrating and raising his head. He would then do the same in the whole of the prayer till it was completed. On rising from the second Rak'a (after sitting for At-Tahiyyat), he used to say Takbir.
In a four rak`aat-long Salah, one must say 22 takbirs. Count yours and see if your Salah matches that of the Prophet (SAW)!

Love for the Good (Hadith No. 750)
Salam, Bismillah.
Narrated Abu Bakra:
I reached the Prophet in the mosque while he was bowing in prayer and I too bowed before joining the row. I mentioned it to the Prophet and he said to me, "May Allah increase your love for the good. But do not repeat it again (bowing in that way)."
Sometimes people get a bit too enthusiastic while doing something for the Deen. They might do something wrong in that craze or cross a boundary unwillingly. The way to deal with them is not to be harsh nor discourage them. That would be very unwise! And I see it happen a lot as well, sadly.
Prophet (SAW) responded to Abu Bakra's action starting with a positive note. He gave him a du`a, and what a beautiful du`a it was! <3
زادك الله حرصا
"May Allah increase your love for the good."
After encouraging him, he (SAW) told him not to repeat this action again because it's not the right way to join Salah. One must join the saff (row) and then join the congregation with takbir.
May Allah give us the wisdom and knowledge that Prophet (SAW) left for us. For truly, that is the only thing we get to inherit from him. :)

Ameen! (Ahadith 747-749)
The Prophet said, "Say Amin" when the Imam says it and if the Amin of any one of you coincides with that of the angels then all his past sins will be forgiven." Ibn Shihab said, "Allah's Apostle used to Say "Amin."
Allah's Apostle said, "If any one of you says, "Amin" and the angels in the heavens say "Amin" and the former coincides with the latter, all his past sins will be forgiven."
Allah's Apostle said, "Say Amen' when the Imam says "Ghair-il-maghdubi 'alaihim wala-ddal-lin; not the path of those who earn Your Anger (such as Jews) nor of those who go astray (such as Christians); all the past sins of the person whose saying (of Amin) coincides with that of the angels, will be forgiven.
Say Ameen after reciting/hearing Surah al-Fatihah.
When your Ameen coincides with that of the angels, all your past sins are forgiven. Your timing has to be accurate.
"Say Amin when the Imam says it.."

More on Reciting Qur'an in Salah (Ahadith 741-746)
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
The Prophet recited aloud in the prayers in which he was ordered to do so and quietly in the prayers in which he was ordered to do so. "And your Lord is not forgetful." "Verily there was a good example for you in the ways of the Prophet."
Narrated Abu Wa'il:
A man came to Ibn Mas'ud and said, "I recited the Mufassal (Suras) at night in one Rak'a." Ibn Mas'ud said, "This recitation is (too quick) like the recitation of poetry. I know the identical Suras which the Prophet used to recite in pairs." Ibn Mas'ud then mentioned 20 Mufassal Suras including two Suras from the family of (i.e. those verses which begin with) AL, HA, MIM (which the Prophet used to recite) in each Rak'a.
Narrated 'Abdullah bin Abi Qatada:
My father said, "The Prophet uses to recite Al-Fatiha followed by another Sura in the first two Rakat of the prayer and used to recite only Al-Fatiha in the last two Rakat of the Zuhr prayer. Sometimes a verse or so was audible and he used to prolong the first Rak'a more than the second and used to do the same in the 'Asr and Fajr prayers."
Narrated Abu Ma'mar:
We said to Khabbab "Did Allah's Apostle used to recite in Zuhr and 'Asr prayers?" He replied in the affirmative. We said, "How did you come to know about it?" He said, "By the movement of his beard."
My father said, "The Prophet used to recite Al-Fatiha along with another Sura in the first two Rakat of the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers. A verse or so was audible at times and he used to prolong the first Rak'a."
My father said, "The Prophet used to prolong the first Rak'a of the Zuhr prayer and shorten the second one and used to do the same in the Fajr prayer."
Fajr, Maghrib and `Ishaa' are the jahri prayers. Prophet (SAW) used to recite aloud in them (in congregation). Dhuhr and `Asr are the sirri prayers. Prophet (SAW) used to recite slowly or 'silently' in them. Read more on it here.
Reciting Mufassal Surahs (from Surah Qaf onwards) in `Ishaa' is Sunnah.
Reciting Surah al-Fatihah in each rak`ah of every Salah is of the utmost importance. More on it here.
Lips should move while reciting 'silently'. Also, first rak`ah of prayer is the longest. Details here.

Black teen died after screaming 'I can't breathe' while restrained at a for-profit youth center in Kalamazoo, lawsuit states
By Steve Neavling on Mon, Jun 22, 2020 at 2:44 pm
Cornelius Fredericks' family
Cornelius Fredericks in the hospital before he died.
Before his death, 16-year-old Cornelius Fredericks screamed, "I can't breathe," while he was improperly placed in a restraint by staff members of a for-profit residential youth center in Kalamazoo, according to a lawsuit filed on behalf of the teen's estate Monday.
Fredericks, who was Black and in foster care, was restrained by staff for throwing a sandwich in the cafeteria of Lakeside Academy. He went into cardiac arrest at a hospital and died 30 hours later on May 1.
The family's attorney, Jon Marko, said at least one staff member of Lakeside Academy sat directly on Frederick's chest as he lost consciousness. Employees waited 12 minutes to call 911, even though Fredericks was limp and unresponsive, Marko said.
"It's a horrible, tragic case," Marko said at a news conference Monday. "We want to make sure this never happens to another child."
Fredericks' aunt, Tenia Goshay said she wants answers and accountability.
"I want to know why this happened," Goshay said. "I want some justice for my nephew."
Following an investigation into Fredericks' death, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services terminated its contract with Lakeside Academy in June. The academy had at least 30 other violations over the past five years, Marko said.
At the hospital, Fredericks tested positive for COVID-19. Follow-up testing at the facility revealed that nearly 40 other residents and nine staffers were also positive for COVID-19.
Sequel Youth and Family Services is also listed as a defendant in the lawsuit.
In a statement, Sequel Youth said it can't comment on "pending legal matters."
"That said, we are deeply saddened by the tragic loss of Cornelius and acted quickly to terminate all staff involved," the statement reads. "Additionally, we have removed the former executive director of Lakeside from the organization. We have been in regular contact with law enforcement and state officials to help ensure justice is served and have accelerated the work that was already underway across our organization to move to a restraint-free model of care. We take our obligation to meet the significant behavioral health needs of all our students incredibly seriously and remain focused on our mission of providing the absolute best care and treatment possible for our clients."
Kalamazoo County Prosecutor Jeff Getting is reviewing the case to determine whether criminal charges are warranted.

LA GRANGE | As the school year comes to an end, four North Lenoir student-athletes signed their letters of intent to play at the next level Wednesday.
Dianthony Hall, Reese Hobbs, Reed Parris and Zach Turner committed to various colleges across the state at the North Lenoir media center. Hall, who excelled at track and field, will go to North Carolina Central while Hobbs (Methodist University), Parris (University of Mount Olive) and Turner (Lenoir Community College) will showcase their abilities in baseball.
Hall, who won the NCHSAA 2A East regional in the shot put, said NCCU was a great fit for her.
"I love the track team out there," Hall said. "Originally, I wanted to go there to get my criminal justice degree because they have a great program. One thing I can take from North Lenoir is working hard at and away from practice, and I'll do the same in college."
Anthony Hall, Dianthony's father, said his daughter has a great work ethic.
"She's definitely put in a lot of extra effort, working with personal trainers like Chappriel Pitt and also hitting the weight room," he said. "She's won just about every match in shot put in conference, won the East regionals this year and finished sixth in states. She had multiple offers, but she had her heart set on Central and it was an easy decision."
Hobbs, Parris and Turner have contributed to North Lenoir's program being a force in the Eastern Carolina Conference, including four straight ECC titles, 20 consecutive conference wins and a fourth-round appearance in the 2017 NCHSAA 2A state playoffs. Hobbs, who went 5-0 on the season, said he was happy to continue his progression.
"I'm excited to further my education in physical therapy while also chasing my baseball dreams," Hobbs said. "I picked Methodist because of the environment and it was just a great school."
Reese's father, Shane, said he was proud for his son.
"It took a lot of long hours and hard work," Shane Hobbs said. "I'm excited to see him go to college and play baseball."
Parris was the ace of the rotation, going 6-2 with a 2.36 ERA, along with three complete games — including two in playoff wins. Parris said he's undecided between business and biology as a major, but was convinced he made the right decision school-wise.
"Mount Olive is a first-class program and it felt like the best fit," Parris said. "The coaches and staff are great out there, and it was something I wanted to be a part of."
Mount Olive coach Carl Lancaster spoke highly about Parris as well.
"He's a high-character kid," Lancaster said. "He's a fine young man with outstanding grades, which attracted us. On the mound he's very savvy and has competitiveness in him. If we can get a little weight on him, he'll be an even more outstanding pitcher, and we're certainly looking forward to having him here."
Amy Parris, Reed's mother, said she liked the decision her son made.
"I'm excited for what he's done both academically and baseball-wise," she said. "Most importantly, he's a good person and he's deserved this with the hard work he's put in. I'm excited to see what he does at the next level."
Turner led the Hawks in on-base percentage at .512, while batting .397 with 13 RBIs and five doubles. Turner said he plans to study nursing and felt like LCC was a perfect fit.
"It's good to be close to home, but I also like the way they do things there," Turner said. "They have coaches who can really help, and I felt like this was a great decision to play here over the next two years."
Charlene Turner, Zach's mother, said the chemistry with the coaches stood out.
"LCC is a good fit for Zach and I'm happy about his decision," she said. "He'll be able to go into the nursing program and transfer after two years academically, and in baseball the coaches did a great job communicating with him."

Some things to know before you vote
The Brown-Lupton University Union will be a county early voting station from Monday through Friday next week. The hours of operation will be 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. In the meantime, here are some tips if you are confused about how to vote.
For early voting on campus, students will need to bring their voter registration card and a photo ID. For voting stations in the area, most forms of photo identification will be taken, said Steve Raborn, Tarrant County elections administrator.
Early voting in Tarrant County started Oct. 20 and will last through the end of the month. If a student lives away from the campus or can't make it to the BLUU in time, there are several locations in Fort Worth where students can vote early such as the Tarrant County Elections Center, the Tarrant County Plaza Building and the Southside Community Center. Cynthia Walsh, assistant dean of student development and a member of TCU's Vote Purple, Vote Smart team, said when she asked students if they were registered, they would give her a straight "yes" or "no" answer, but when she followed up with a question about where they will vote, she often got a confused response.
"There's a whole laundry list of acceptable identification," Raborn said. "Most voters bring either their voter certificate or driver's license, but they can use student ID if it has a photo. We don't have a photo ID requirement in the state, but if you do have a photo ID that establishes your identity like an employee card or student ID or even a Sam's Club card, that will suffice."
Raborn added that driver's licenses from out of state are acceptable too.
Raborn said voters are not allowed to wear campaign T-shirts, buttons or anything promoting a candidate. He said that might be a problem, especially for new voters. People who wear clothes or accessories promoting a political party into the polling place will usually be forced to turn the shirts inside out, Raborn said.
"It's a long-standing Texas law that you can't wear campaign materials into the polling place," Raborn said. "You can't wear it within 100 feet of the outside door of the polling place."

Out-of-State Voting
Voters who have moved to Texas have called the Tarrant County Elections Center with several questions, Raborn said. Students have the option of remaining registered at their home or registering at their college, but the deadline for registration has already passed. Another option for out-of-state voters is to use an absentee ballot, but voters would have to check their home county's rules and deadlines, Raborn said. For voters who moved from another county in Texas, they can vote by mail in their home county but must have written a request to their home county by Oct. 28, Raborn said.
Ashley Griffith, a senior finance major and Arizona native, said problems registering in her home state of Arizona and living in Texas prevented her from voting in the last presidential election. Griffith said she requested an absentee ballot, which was sent to her parents' address. Her parents sent the ballot to her address in Texas, and she filled it out and sent it back to her home county, but it was too late. This time around, Griffith said she had the absentee ballot sent to her Texas address. With a choice of faxing it or e-mailing it, Griffith faxed her ballot with a copy of her driver's license before the deadline, but she said it was still a hassle.
"Just stay on top of it, and keep going through the process that they tell you to," Griffith said.
Myths and Misconceptions
Raborn said one prevalent myth he has heard circulating through e-mails is if someone votes a straight ticket for either major political party, the vote for the presidential race won't be counted. Raborn said when you vote a straight ticket, you vote for every candidate from a specific party, including the presidential candidate.
Walsh said one of the goals of Vote Purple, Vote Smart is to clear up any misconceptions about the voting system.
Voters who have registered but are confused about where the candidates stand can check out www.opencongress.org to see the voting records of senators and representatives in Congress. The site has updates on the presidential candidates' stances on issues such as health care and Wall Street regulation. Another site voters may use to wade through the swarm of attack ads and shifting positions is www.factcheck.org. The site criticizes misleading and even outright false statements from both of the candidates' campaigns.


Lena Harris (GBE-LENA-22) Aruba Headshot Photographed June 1976 Aruba, Netherlands Antilles In 1974, Gary Bernstein met his muse, the sensual and beautiful Lena Harris, a superstar model with the Eileen Ford Agency and later with The Wilhelmina Agency. Together they produced the classic book, "Burning Cold," which contains Gary's photographs of Lena combined with the prose of Elton John's lyricist, Bernie Taupin. Over the years their collaboration has resulted in images for collectors and many of the world's top clients. Lena Harris is now an author and a filmmaker, and her documentary, "Big Willie Robinson, Our Story, as Told by Sergeant Bill Chaffin," premiered at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival. This particular photograph is an outtake from "Burning Cold." It was taken late afternoon with hot direct sunlight as the only light source striking Lena's face and form. She is adorned in a Scott Barrie dress. In the background are the ruins of an old staircase on the island. The image was captured using a Nikon F3 affixed with a 105mm f/2.5 Auto-Nikkor lens on Kodak 35mm Kodachrome 25 color positive film. Gary and Lena shot the book with no art directors, no stylists, no assistants and no crew. The simplicity of the shoot is echoed in this striking image of Lena Harris with wet hair in a timeless rendition of classic sensuality.


Only 10% of her screen time will be as Mystique, she said. It takes X-Men: First Class makeup artists about six hours to transform her into Mystique with the blue skins and the scales, she added. (She has a nickname for the process or the makeup or whatever — "Mystink.") I asked if official photos have been taken, and she said the idea was to keep her appearance under wraps until just before the film's release.
X-Men: First Class opens in theaters on June 3, 2011.
