While Rosetta continues to study the ever-changing comet from a distance, the mission teams have been trying to narrow down the location of Philae on the comet nucleus using a variety of data, including imaging, magnetic field, and radio wave measurements.
Philae first touched down at the Agilkia landing site on the head of Comet 67P/C-G at 15:34 GMT on 12 November 2014, confirmation arriving back at Earth via Rosetta 28 minutes later. Unfortunately Philae's harpoons did not deploy and the ice screws alone proved insufficient to secure the lander at Agilkia. As a result, the lander rebounded for an additional two-hour flight before finally coming to rest at a site now known as Abydos.
Both Rosetta's navigation camera and the high-resolution OSIRIS camera successfully identified the first touchdown point, with Philae's down-looking ROLIS camera providing high-resolution views of the location from as close as 9 metres altitude. The bouncing lander was then identified in OSIRIS and NAVCAM images shortly after it had left Agilkia. Somewhat later, another OSIRIS image was thought to show Philae above the horizon of the large depression known as Hatmehit on the comet's head.
Magnetic field measurements from Philae's ROMAP provided further details on subsequent events as the lander flew above the comet, including precise timing of the various contact points. Initially, the lander flew in a stable orientation, but is then thought to have struck a surface feature at 16:20 GMT, after which it tumbled. A third touchdown occurred at 17:25 GMT, followed by a much shorter bounce of just a few minutes, before Philae finally arrived at Abydos at 17:32 GMT. Overall, Philae is thought to have travelled more than a kilometre from its initial contact point.
Images taken by its ROLIS and CIVA cameras, along with telemetry and data returned by its instruments during its nearly 60 hours of surface operations, have built up a picture of the final landing site. The lander is thought to be in a rough piece of terrain, tilted up against a cliff, and mostly in shadow.
In the days and weeks after landing, the OSIRIS team continued the search for Philae by making a detailed examination of new images of the comet as they came in. However, this proved to be a daunting task, given the rough terrain, the small size of the lander, and the distance of Rosetta from the comet.
The highest resolution images taken of the region of interest after Philae's landing were part of a dedicated search that took place in mid-December, at distance of roughly 18 kilometres from the surface of the comet. At this distance, the OSIRIS narrow-angle camera has a resolution of 34 centimetres per pixel. The body of Philae is just 1 metre across, while its three thin legs extend out by up to 1.4 metres from its centre.
Rosetta's OSIRIS wide-angle camera captured this view of Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko on 12 November 2014 at 17:18 GMT (onboard spacecraft time), with what is thought to be Philae above the rim of the large depression (marked). The image has been used to guide subsequent lander search efforts, and provides the basis for trajectory reconstructions.
Approximate locations of five lander candidates initially identified in high-resolution OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera images taken in December 2014, from a distance of about 20 km from the centre of Comet 67P/C-G. The candidates are circled in the close-ups, identifying Philae-sized features approximately 1–2 m across. The contrast has been stretched in some of the images to better reveal the candidates. All but one of these candidates (top left) have subsequently been ruled out of consideration due to constraints including the reconstructed lander trajectory and topography at the landing site. The candidate at top left lies near to the current CONSERT ellipse.
Editor's note, 12 June: This image has been updated due to an error in the previous version.
The question then is which, if any, of these candidates is the real Philae?
Fortunately, more information is available. The initial trajectory taken by Philae as it departed from Agilkia could be worked out from the OSIRIS images. This constrained the problem a bit, but only as far as the second bounce.
Fortunately, it was possible to narrow down the lander's final location by using the radio signals sent between Philae and Rosetta as part of the CONSERT experiment after the final touchdown. Combining data on the signal travel time between the two spacecraft with the known trajectory of Rosetta and the current best shape model for the comet, the CONSERT team have been able to establish the location of Philae to within an ellipse roughly 16 x 160 metres in size, just outside the rim of the Hatmehit depression.
By combining radio-wave data exchanged between Rosetta and Philae as part of the CONSERT experiment with trajectory data and the current model of the shape of 67P/C-G, the location of Philae has been determined to lie within an ellipse measuring approximately 16 x 160 m. The CONSERT ellipse corresponds to the outer limits of the various solutions identified for the likely landing site of Philae, although this depends to some extent on the shape model assumed. More detailed work, including a full account of all the errors involved, is currently in progress by the CONSERT team.
The ellipse represents the team's current best estimate of the outer bounds of the likely location of Philae based on a number of simulations, but further work is being carried out to quantify things more rigorously in terms of the statistical likelihood of Philae being inside this region. The location of the ellipse also depends on the assumed shape model of the comet: as this is constantly being refined, some slight revisions in the positioning of the ellipse remain possible.
Nevertheless, the CONSERT ellipse rules out the majority of the candidates shown in the montage above. But there is at least one candidate near to the ellipse, as well as a number of other bright spots in the vicinity.
The current 16 x 160 m CONSERT ellipse overlaid on an OSIRIS narrow-angle camera image of the same region. The location and size of the ellipse is not accurate at the pixel level, and may also change as further CONSERT data analysis proceeds and more detailed comet shape models become available. The OSIRIS image is a slightly cropped 2 x 2 mosaic of NAC images taken from a distance of approximately 18 km from the surface of the comet on 13 December 2014. At this distance, the resolution of NAC is approximately 34 cm per pixel, and the full mosaic covers roughly 1.3 km.
"We have identified several possible lander candidates in OSIRIS images, both inside the CONSERT region of interest and nearby," says Holger Sierks, OSIRIS principal investigator at the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research (MPS) in Germany.
Zooming in towards the current CONSERT ellipse, a number of bright dots are seen in the region. As only one (at most) of these could be the lander, the majority must be associated with surface features on the comet nucleus.Credits: ESA/Rosetta/MPS for OSIRIS Team MPS/UPD/LAM/IAA/SSO/INTA/UPM/DASP/IDAFurthermore, and as the image above shows, bright features are common on the surface of the nucleus. The challenge of identifying Philae is made even more difficult by the fact that many of them are transient. For example, small-scale regions of the nucleus may "glint" under favourable illumination conditions, thus appearing in some images but not others.
To address this issue, scientists working with OSIRIS team member Philippe Lamy at the Laboratoire d'Astrophysique de Marseille (LAM) and the Institut de Recherche en Astrophysique et Planétologie (IRAP) in France began searching for special sets of OSIRIS images.
In particular, they looked for images taken before and after Philae's landing under nearly similar illumination conditions, to reduce the chances of being fooled by transient surface features glinting. In that way, if something new appeared after landing, it could be Philae.
Scanning a broad area encompassing the expecting landing zone, the team identified a promising candidate that is seen on two images taken on 12 and 13 December, a month after the 12 November landing, but not on an image taken earlier, on 22 October. The candidate is also featured in the montage earlier in the post, at top-left.
Additional images below show the region containing the candidate as seen on 22 October from a distance of 10 km from the centre of the comet (roughly 8 km from the surface), and then on both 12 and 13 December from 20 km from the centre (18 km from the surface).
Before' and 'after' comparison images of a promising candidate located near the CONSERT ellipse as seen in images from the OSIRIS Narrow-Angle Camera. Each box covers roughly 20 x 20 m on Comet 67P/C-G.
The left-hand image shows the region as seen on 22 October (before the landing of Philae) from a distance of about 10 km from the centre of Comet 67P/C-G, while the centre and right-hand images shows the same region on 12 and 13 December from 20 km (after landing). The candidate is only seen in the two later images.
The illumination conditions are broadly similar in the three images and the same topography can be recognised in each case. The difference in distance at which the images were taken yields a difference in resolution and thus the December images have been resampled and interpolated to match the scale of the October image. As a result, the candidate covers more pixels calculated for a Philae-sized object seen by the OSIRIS narrow-angle camera from a distance of 18 km to the surface.
The 'after' images have been resampled and interpolated to be on the same scale as the 'before' image: this results in the bright spot covering more pixels than in the original data.
This graphic shows the solar panels on Philae's body. Simulations of the day-night cycle and landing site topography show considerable variations in the illumination as local features cast shadows at different times. The light blue coloured sections indicate the portion of solar panels thought to be illuminated at the exact moment the 13 December image was taken. While Philae's legs and feet appear bright in images acquired during its descent to the surface, the simulations suggest that the Sun would not reach the lower portions of the lander at the time the 13 December image was taken. Under these illumination conditions, Philae would only cover a few pixels in the OSIRIS images taken from 20 km.
But is this really Philae? Unfortunately, it is impossible to be sure.
Ultimately, a definitive identification of this or any other candidate as being Philae will require higher-resolution imaging, in turn meaning closer flybys. This may not be possible in the near-term, as issues encountered in navigating close to the comet mean that the opportunity to make flybys at significantly less than 20 km from the surface may be on hold until later in the mission. But after the comet's activity has subsided, Rosetta should be able to safely operate in close proximity to the comet nucleus again.
The other possibility of further refining Philae's location would come if the lander were to receive enough power to wake-up from its hibernation and resume its scientific study of 67P/C-G. Then, CONSERT could be used to perform additional ranging measurements and significantly reduce the uncertainties on the lander's location.
At the moment, Philae is still in hibernation, but the mission team remain hopeful that, as the comet moves closer to the Sun along its orbit, the lander will receive enough power in the coming weeks or months to wake up and transmit a signal to Rosetta.
"The conditions for Philae's wake-up are becoming more and more favourable as the comet approaches the Sun," says Lander Project Manager Stephan Ulamec. "The team at DLR's Lander Control Center has continued to prepare long term operations for Philae and its instruments in the hope that it does wake up soon."
This blog post was prepared in collaboration with CNES, DLR, LAM, and MPS.
The candidate discovered by the team of Philippe Lamy at the Laboratoire d'Astrophysique de Marseille (LAM) was identified by G. Faury of AKKA Technologies (a contractor of LAM and IRAP). E. Jurado and R. Garmier of CS-SI (a contractor of CNES) at the Philae Science Operations and Navigation Center at CNES (SONC), A. Herique and Y. Rogez of the CONSERT team at Institut de Planétologie et d'Astrophysique de Grenoble, and P. Heinisch of the ROMAP team at IGEP, the Technical University of Braunschweig, were also involved.
CONSERT: CONSERT is the Comet Nucleus Sounding Experiment by Radiowave Transmission. The principal investigator is Wlodek Kofman of the Institut de Planétologie et d'Astrophysique de Grenoble (IPAG), France. The CONSERT instrument was designed built and operated by IPAG, LATMOS (Laboratoire Atmosphères, Milieux, Observations Spatiales, France) and MPS (Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, Germany) and was financially supported by CNES, CNRS, UJF, DLR, and MPS.
OSIRIS: The scientific imaging system OSIRIS was built by a consortium led by the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research (Germany) in collaboration with CISAS, University of Padova (Italy), the Laboratoire d'Astrophysique de Marseille (France), the Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucia, CSIC (Spain), the Scientific Support Office of the European Space Agency (The Netherlands), the Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (Spain), the Universidad Politéchnica de Madrid (Spain), the Department of Physics and Astronomy of Uppsala University (Sweden), and the Institute of Computer and Network Engineering of the TU Braunschweig (Germany). OSIRIS was financially supported by the national funding agencies of Germany (DLR), France (CNES), Italy (ASI), Spain (MEC), and Sweden (SNSB), and the ESA Technical Directorate.
ROLIS (ROsetta Lander Imaging System) is a descent and close-up camera on the Philae Lander. It has been developed by the DLR Institute of Planetary Research, Berlin.
ROMAP: ROMAP is the Rosetta Lander Magnetometer and Plasma Monitor. The contributing institutions to ROMAP are: Institut für Geophysik und Extraterrestrische Physik, Technische Universität Braunschweig, Germany; Max-Planck Institut für Sonnensystemforschung, Göttingen, Germany; Hungarian Academy of Sciences Centre for Energy Research, Hungary; and Space Research Institute Graz, Austria. The co-principal investigators are Hans-Ulrich Auster (Technische Universität, Braunschweig) and István Apáthy, KFKI, Budapest, Hungary.
Rosetta is an ESA mission with contributions from its Member States and NASA. Rosetta's Philae lander was provided by a consortium led by DLR, MPS, CNES, and ASI.
Astronomers using ESO's ground-based Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile are watching the development of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko's coma and tail from Earth. This image is based on data acquired on 22 May and is about 300 000 km wide at the distance of the comet.
The comet's dusty coma and tail is swept away from the Sun, which is towards the left of the image in this orientation. The tail can be seen to stretch at least 120 000 km in this relatively shallow image, and in deeper images, the coma alone is estimated to be at least 80–100 000 km across.
As each pixel in this image spans roughly 400 km at the comet, both Rosetta and the nucleus of 67P/C-G are too small to be resolved. But images like these provide important context information for the images taken by the spacecraft close to the comet, as its activity increases towards perihelion.
At the time the image was taken Rosetta and the comet were about 238 million km from the Sun; at perihelion on 13 August they will be between the orbits of Earth and Mars at a distance of about 186 million km from the Sun.
This image will be shown as part of the BBC Sky at Night TV programme in the UK on Sunday 14 June. The episode is a Rosetta special and includes interviews with a number of scientists discussing what we have learned about Comet 67P/C-G so far.
Rosetta's lander Philae is out of hibernation!
The signals were received at ESA's European Space Operations Centre in Darmstadt at 22:28 CEST on 13 June. More than 300 data packets have been analysed by the teams at the Lander Control Center at the German Aerospace Center (DLR).
"Philae is doing very well: It has an operating temperature of -35ºC and has 24 Watts available," explains DLR Philae Project Manager Dr. Stephan Ulamec. "The lander is ready for operations."
For 85 seconds Philae "spoke" with its team on ground, via Rosetta, in the first contact since going into hibernation in November.
When analysing the status data it became clear that Philae also must have been awake earlier: "We have also received historical data - so far, however, the lander had not been able to contact us earlier."
22:28 CEST on board Rosetta: The orbiter's Electrical Support System Processor Unit (ESS) starts receiving radio signals from Philae, approximately 200km beneath Rosetta on the surface of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.
22:28 CEST on board Rosetta: Spacecraft immediately starts relaying Philae data to Earth via NASA's 70m deep-space antenna at Goldstone, California. One-way light time is 16.8 minutes, so signals start arriving at about 22:45 CEST on Earth and are immediately relayed to ESOC, Darmstadt, Germany.
Just after 22:45 CEST in Planetary Missions Dedicated Control Room, ESOC: The on-duty spacecraft controller watching telemetry downloading from Rosetta notices some alarms that had been specially set on some Lander ESS parameters. These had been implemented shortly after separation (in November 2014) to ensure any Lander contact would not be missed. After confirming this was, indeed, correct, and that lander telemetry were being received, he consults an 'Action Sheet' kept on hand since 15 November 2014 (when Philae entered hibernation on the comet) to determine what to do.
23:00 CEST ESOC: As defined on the 'Action Sheet', the on-duty spacecraft controller telephones the Rosetta on-call spacecraft operations engineer, Jake Urbanek, at his home near Darmstadt. He reports the news.
23:30 CEST at Jake's home: Jake calls Rosetta Spacecraft Operations Engineer Armelle Hubault at her home to confirm that the Lander had switched on and transmitted telemetry.
23:45 CEST at Armelle's home: Armelle confirms the news by calling the Lander Team on a pre-agreed phone number. Lander team confirms Lander is back! Armelle also rings Sylvain Lodiot, the Rosetta Spacecraft Operations Manager, who then rings Paolo Ferri, ESA's Head of Mission Operations. Paolo subsequently relays the information to the rest of the Rosetta science and operations managers.
Armelle reports: "I had just brushed my teeth and was heading to bed when the phone rang. Seeing Jake was calling, I picked up the phone and said: 'This has to be bad news. We've got a safe mode, don't we?' "
"He replied: 'Well, maybe not. Maybe it's good news!' And, yes, it was."
Editor's note: After this weekend's news, the Rosetta Flight Control Team today have switched into high gear, with a great deal of coordination work now being carried out with the flight dynamics experts at ESOC as well as with the Rosetta Science Ground Segment (RSGS/ESAC), the Philae Lander Control Centre team (DLR Cologne) and the lander science operations centre (SONC), at CNES/Toulouse.
Lander Philae hat sich am 14. Juni 2015 erneut gemeldet: Von 23.22 Uhr an sendete er bis 23.26 Uhr einige Datenpakete, die nun im Deutschen Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR) ausgewertet werden. "Allerdings war dieses Mal die Verbindung zu ihm relativ instabil", sagt Philae-Projektleiter Dr. Stephan Ulamec vom DLR. Am 13. Juni 2015 hatte der Lander sich zum ersten Mal nach seinem fast siebenmonatigen Winterschlaf für 85 Sekunden zurückgemeldet und erste Daten zu seinem Zustand gesendet. Auch nach dem zweiten Kontakt bestätigten die aktuellen Daten, dass Philae auf dem Kometen Churyumov-Gerasimenko in einem guten Zustand steht und betriebsbereit ist. Nun sollen die Bahnen des Orbiter Rosetta angepasst werden, damit längere Kontaktzeiten zu Philae möglich sind.
Ausreichend Energie und eine nicht ganz so eisige Betriebstemperatur bringt Philae zurzeit bereits mit - immerhin drei Stunden Sonnenlicht pro Kometentag erreichen ihn und versorgen den Lander mit Energie. Bisher hatte man nur mit 1,3 Stunden Beleuchtung gerechnet. Bevor das Team im Lander-Kontrollzentrum des DLR Philae in rund 304 Millionen Kilometern Entfernung von der Erde kommandieren kann, müssen stabile und längere Verbindungen zum Lander ermöglicht werden. Nur dann können die vorbereiteten Kommandos für die wissenschaftliche Arbeit mit seinen zehn Instrumenten an Bord hochgeladen werden und die nächsten Experimente beginnen.
In welcher Reihenfolge die Instrumente zum Zuge kommen, wird festgelegt, sobald Philaes Gesundheitszustand genau feststeht. "Zunächst werden sicherlich die nicht-mechanischen Instrumente zum Einsatz kommen, also Instrumente, die nicht bohren oder hämmern", erläutert DLR-Wissenschaftler Stephan Ulamec. Ganz vorne mit dabei sind voraussichtlich auch Instrumente, die nur wenig Energie verbrauchen und auch nur geringe Datenmengen zur Erde schicken müssen. Mit dem Aufwachen von Philae könnte es zum ersten Mal möglich sein, auf einem Kometen vor Ort zu forschen, während dieser auf dem Weg zur Sonne immer aktiver wird.
Lander Philae hat sich am 13. Juni 2015 um 22.28 Uhr wieder aus seinem Winterschlaf zurückgemeldet und die ersten Daten zur Erde gesandt. Über 300 Datenpakete hat das Team des Lander-Kontrollzentrums des Deutschen Zentrums für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR) ausgewertet: "Philae geht es sehr gut: Er hat eine Betriebstemperatur von minus 35 Grad Celsius und verfügt über 24 Watt", erläutert DLR-Philae-Projektleiter Dr. Stephan Ulamec. "Der Lander ist somit betriebsbereit." 85 Sekunden lang "sprach" Philae mit seinem Bodenteam bei seinem ersten Kontakt seit seinem Winterschlaf.
Bei der Analyse seiner Statusdaten zeigte sich, dass Philae auch zuvor schon wach gewesen sein muss: "Wir haben auch historische Daten erhalten - bisher war dem Lander allerdings noch nicht gelungen, mit uns Kontakt aufzunehmen." Nun warten die Wissenschaftler auf den nächsten Kontakt. In Philaes Speichermedien stecken noch weitere 8000 Datenpakete, die dem DLR-Team Aufschluss darüber geben werden, wie es Philae in den vergangenen Tagen auf Komet Churyumov-Gerasimenko ergangen ist.
Philae hatte sich am 15. November 2014 um 1.15 Uhr abgeschaltet, nach dem er etwa 60 Stunden auf dem Kometen in Betrieb war. Seit dem 12. März 2015 war immer wieder die Kommunikationseinheit auf dem Orbiter Rosetta eingeschaltet, um den Lander zu rufen und seine Antwort zu empfangen.
Since March 2015, when Philae's environmental conditions started to improve with higher surface temperatures and better illumination, the orbiter's receiver had been turned on periodically to listen for signals from the lander when the orbital geometry was thought to be optimum.
"We are still examining the housekeeping information at the Lander Control Centre in the DLR German Aerospace Center's establishment in Cologne, but we can already tell that all lander subsystems are working nominally, with no apparent degradation after more than half a year hiding out on the comet's frozen surface," says DLR's Stephan Ulamec, Philae Lander Project Manager.
A second, smaller burst of lander data was received on Sunday, 14 June, at about 21:26 GMT, lasting just a few seconds. These data were confirmed to give the current status, showing the lander's internal temperature had already risen to –5ºC.
Philae's memory has stored over 8000 packets of additional status data, but it is unclear from when in recent days they were recorded.
Engineers at the Lander Control Centre have determined that Philae is already being exposed to sufficient sunlight to heat it to an acceptable operating temperature and to generate electricity.
The telemetry downloaded covered the lander's status for a full night–day cycle of the comet, which is helping ground teams to understand how the Sun is shining on the lander. The solar panels appear to be receiving power for over 135 minutes in each illumination period.
"While the information we have is very preliminary, it appears that the lander is in as good a condition as we could have hoped," says Dr Ulamec.
The main task now for all the mission partners – ESA for Rosetta operations and DLR and France's CNES space agency for lander operations and science, respectively – is to determine how to optimise Rosetta's orbit so as to facilitate contact and enable new science investigations.
It is believed that there is sufficient power now being generated to allow some science measurements during the time Philae is illuminated, with initial activities focusing on low-power measurements. This first phase would also likely include measurements that did not previously generate science in November.
However, the mission teams first must establish a more robust link between Rosetta and Philae before uploading the first batch of science operations commands.
The quality of the communication link is also possibly related to the trajectory Rosetta is flying and the orientation it adopts.
Currently, Rosetta experiences two possible communication slots per 24 hours – once per 12-hour comet rotation.
Until 23:35 GMT on Tuesday, 16 June, Rosetta will be flying an orbit set by already-uploaded commands on the terminator – the plane between comet day and night – moving out from about 200 km to 235 km altitude.
This orbit is not optimised for lander communication, so longer periods of contact may not be possible until the trajectory has been changed.
"With work done by the flight dynamics and operations team at ESOC and based on intense planning being conducted with the mission partners today, a new orbit will be devised that ensures optimum lander communications beginning with the next command upload later tonight," says Paolo Ferri, ESA's Head of Mission Operations.
This new orbit will include an already-planned reduction of distance from the nucleus, down to 180 km versus 200 km, and 'nadir pointing' – continuously pointing Rosetta's communications unit at the comet. In the coming days, the orbiter may also be moved closer to the comet, without compromising the safety of the spacecraft, to help communications.
The new orbit will be flown by Rosetta starting after 23:25 GMT on 16 June until 19 June, aiming to enable more and longer contacts with Philae, especially towards the end of this period.
Establishing a regular and predictable pattern of contacts is a prerequisite for performing a complete assessment of the lander's status and for planning science operations.
"If we manage to achieve and maintain a predictable contact pattern," continues Paolo Ferri, "the lander teams can devise a strategy for a new sequence of scientific operations.
As a bonus, any operation of Philae's instruments up to or through perihelion on 13 August – the comet's closest point to the Sun along its orbit – will allow in-situ study of a comet during its peak activity.
Had Philae landed at the planned site, at Agilkia in November 2014, its mission would likely have ended in March because of the higher temperatures of that location as solar illumination increased.

FOR ALUMNI AND FRIENDS OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY-PURDUE UNIVERSITY FORT WAYNE
Protocol entrepreneur Noticed a significant decline in mannered behavior in recent years? So has Kathryn Anders.
Kathryn Anders thinks the world would be a better place if more of us followed the time-worn yet sound advice of the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Too frequently, though, she sees instead people who are self-absorbed, disrespectful, and unwilling to take the time to be a friend. "It's tragic," she says. "When people don't treat each other with even simple respect and courtesy, we're all losers. Very few people nowadays, even as children or teenagers, have many friends. Isn't that sad?" Unlike many of us who complain about these pervasive social traits, however, Anders decided to do something. Her many years of teaching--combined with extensive world travels and a fascination with people and their behavior--prompted her to focus her energies on etiquette instruction. For the past 15 years, she has taught protocol and etiquette classes, encouraging her students to be more considerate and giving them specific skills for doing so. Her first protocol class--titled "A Winning Image"--was offered at Huntington College, where Anders was an education professor. She taught it during January term, a three-week period between semesters during which supplemental classes are offered to students. Because of its popularity and success, Anders continued to teach a protocol class during J-term every year. "The kids knew they needed to learn this stuff before going out to interview for jobs," she says. "We never had enough chairs for all the students who came." Then, six years ago, Anders formed a business called The Protocol School of Indiana and expanded her instruction to include classes for children, teenagers, and adults, and seminars on various topics for business people. In her classes, Anders covers (among many other topics) meeting people and how to make introductions, how to make a good first impression, what forms of address are proper in what contexts, the art of conversation, etiquette in public places, and ways to say thank you. Anders' programs "help people enrich their personal relationships and move through the world with grace and ease. The way I see it," she says, "we're all going down different roads. It's a true art to be able to go down the same road with someone else, even if only for a few minutes. Indeed, the work world is changing. People in the workplace need to be able to discuss problems, converse in all kinds of situations, use proper forms of address, and know the hidden rituals of business protocol." Anders holds two degrees from IPFW--a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (1968) and a Master of Science in Elementary Education (1970). Later, Anders completed additional advanced degrees from Christian Theological Seminary and Butler University, as well as certification through the Protocol School of Washington, D.C. She also taught at IPFW for a few years. "I'm so grateful for the opportunity I had to learn and work with the people at the university," she says. "They were not only knowledgeable, but nice. They never put me down, but always raised me up, and I appreciate those qualities in people." Anders' focus on etiquette in an ill-mannered age prompts plenty of questions. She says, "People often ask me, 'Why do you bother doing this? You can't change things.' But I do see change, one person at a time." Kathryn Anders

A LETTER FROM THE ALUMNI DIRECTOR
To teach is to touch a life forever …
Dear Alumni, What tragedies have befallen IPFW these past few months. We lost three dearly loved professors in less than a month's time, and this has deeply affected our IPFW family. David Gotlob, chair and associate professor of accounting and finance, died December 11. He had been at IPFW since 1991. Steve Hollander, associate professor of English and linguistics, died December 13 of lung cancer. On January 3, Kathleen Rassuli, associate professor of marketing, and her young daughter died in an automobile accident in Pennsylvania. (Rassuli's husband, Ali, was an associate professor at IPFW. He is now living in California.) How many of you were deeply influenced by these professors and what they taught you? Were you part of the student organizations they advised? The IPFW family and the Fort Wayne community came together on February 1 for a Celebration of Life in honor of these teachers. It was a time to remember, to heal, and to say good-bye. It occurred to me that--in this instance, as in so many others in our busy lives--we rarely get around to telling those who have made major contributions to our lives just what those contributions were, and how much we appreciate their efforts on our behalf. Which leads me to make this suggestion: why not call or drop a note to those IPFW profs who meant the most to you--who gave you extra attention when you most needed it, or who taught you something you still use every day in your work? Let these teachers hear from you; after all, you and all the others they've taught over the years are truly their life's work. By the way, memorials for Professors Gotlob, Hollander, and Rassuli may be sent to the IPFW Development Office, IPFW, 2101 E. Coliseum Blvd., Fort Wayne, IN 46805. Please clearly mark in whose memory your contribution is, and the Development Division will credit it accordingly. To teach is to touch a life forever. Thank you Professors Gotlob, Hollander, and Rassuli. You made a difference in the lives of so many IPFW grads' lives! Sincerely, Jennifer Bosk, '87 Director of Alumni Relations

LOOKING BACK A remembrance of things past by Larry W. Griffin, IPFW Archivist
Tempted as we may be to believe that things don't really change much over the years, this isn't always so. Some things do change--IPFW, for example. The university has grown from one major classroom building in 1969 to six in 1999. Our alumni assumed a responsible role in this change back in 1969. As students, our alumni were also leaders and promoters of early movements toward recycling. They also promoted increased discussion and debate of important matters such as race relations on campus and sexual awareness. Looking back, one could reasonably conclude that the heart of the university is not its faculty or its buildings. The heart of the university is its student body. We can all be thankful for our alumni who took the initiative to make IPFW a dynamic place to be.
Thirty years ago: 1969
In the spring, a caravan of 30 students traveled to Indianapolis to speak with state legislators about growing pains at IPFW and the need for more funding. Steve Pettyjohn, C. Joseph Tonsing, and Ronald Rice led a movement known as Project Abelard to increase awareness of crowded conditions on campus. Thomas Newman, Mark Miethal, Allan Smith, Charlene Houk, Kent Delucany, and Jim Buckley also participated in the project. We have come a long way since then. Thanks to those who worked on the project.
Twenty years ago: 1979
Joan Baez was attempting to get the National Security Agency to disclose what information about her it held in its files. The Warriors had sparked debate on campus and around the country about copycat violence. Superman: the Movie, Animal House, and Hard Core were playing at theatres, and new one- and two-bedroom apartments were renting for $175 a month. Frank Zappa's album Sheik Yerbouti was on sale for $8.99.
Ten years ago: 1989
Joanne Lantz was confirmed as permanent Chancellor, while the faculty debated an academic calendar of 15 versus 16 weeks. The men's basketball team finished its season by breaking a record of 21-7. As a result, the team was ranked eighteenth in Division II. Thanks to Steve Bard, Greg Davis, Bruce Roland, Lawrence Jordan, and Jon Bow. Let us know where you guys are now! On April 12, a group led by Erna Van Helfteren, then a freshman in environmental studies, participated in "R" Day to promote recycling. Thanks to people like Erna, we have come a long way; many now participate in recycling. Anyone remember Doc's Classic Rock Cafe?
Five years ago: 1994
"Aunt Louise's Advice to Students" was a popular column in The Communicator. Sophomore Lindy Jones led the Lady Dons in scoring, free-throws, steals, and minutes played. She was named to the All-Great Lakes Valley Conference First Team. Race relations was the hot topic on campus in the spring.
Call us at 219481-6513, or email griffinl@ipfw.edu.
We think this is Senior Jim Kanning, 1969, but who is the lovely queen?
This is the library on the second floor of Kettler Hall, 1969. Who is who? Let us know.
IPFW's "Swinging Hoosiers" in the late '60s or early '70s, we think. Can you verify?

Transcript IPFW alumni FOR ALUMNI AND FRIENDS OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY-PURDUE UNIVERSITY FORT WAYNE Protocol entrepreneur Noticed a significant decline in mannered behavior in recent years? So has Kathryn Anders. Kathryn Anders thinks the world would be a better place if more of us followed the time-worn yet sound advice of the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Too frequently, though, she sees instead people who are self-absorbed, disrespectful, and unwilling to take the time to be a friend. "It's tragic," she says. "When people don't treat each other with even simple respect and courtesy, we're all losers. Very few people nowadays, even as children or teenagers, have many friends. Isn't that sad?" Unlike many of us who complain about these pervasive social traits, however, Anders decided to do something. Her many years of teaching--combined with extensive world travels and a fascination with people and their behavior--prompted her to focus her energies on etiquette instruction. For the past 15 years, she has taught protocol and etiquette classes, encouraging her students to be more considerate and giving them specific skills for doing so. Her first protocol class--titled "A Winning Image"--was offered at Huntington College, where Anders was an education professor. She taught it during January term, a three-week period between semesters during which supplemental classes are offered to students. Because of its popularity and success, Anders continued to teach a protocol class during J-term every year. "The kids knew they needed to learn this stuff before going out to interview for jobs," she says. "We never had enough chairs for all the students who came." Then, six years ago, Anders formed a business called The Protocol School of Indiana and expanded her instruction to include classes for children, teenagers, and adults, and seminars on various topics for business people. In her classes, Anders covers (among many other topics) meeting people and how to make introductions, how to make a good first impression, what forms of address are proper in what contexts, the art of conversation, etiquette in public places, and ways to say thank you. Anders' programs "help people enrich their personal relationships and move through the world with grace and ease. The way I see it," she says, "we're all going down different roads. It's a true art to be able to go down the same road with someone else, even if only for a few minutes. Indeed, the work world is changing. People in the workplace need to be able to discuss problems, converse in all kinds of situations, use proper forms of address, and know the hidden rituals of business protocol." Anders holds two degrees from IPFW--a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (1968) and a Master of Science in Elementary Education (1970). Later, Anders completed additional advanced degrees from Christian Theological Seminary and Butler University, as well as certification through the Protocol School of Washington, D.C. She also taught at IPFW for a few years. "I'm so grateful for the opportunity I had to learn and work with the people at the university," she says. "They were not only knowledgeable, but nice. They never put me down, but always raised me up, and I appreciate those qualities in people." Anders' focus on etiquette in an ill-mannered age prompts plenty of questions.

Ethics in Action is a student-led initiative that exemplifies the importance we place on values-led management at Dalhousie University's Faculty of Management. Its goal is to equip tomorrow's leaders with the tools to make complex decisions while adhering to ethical principles.
Built upon the Dalhousie Business Ethics Case Competition (DBECC) founded in 2003, Ethics in Action is made possible through the generous support of Scotiabank.
Ethics in Action has two components: a case competition for undergraduate and graduate students and the presentation of the Scotiabank Ethical Leadership Award at the Ethics in Action gala.

Juniors back in hunt for iron ore action, spurred on by latest Vale hiccup
Plus, the nickel planets look to be lining up for Mincor and its latest find
Junior explorers/developers vacated the WA iron ore space in a hurry back in 2011-12 when the iron ore price began its almighty slide from $US168/t down to $US55/t in 2015.
But a couple of dam tragedies in Brazil and an annual global steelmake that has continued to surprise to the upside resulted in the iron ore price steadily rebuilding to an impressive $US102/t in the September quarter.
Add in the lower exchange rate and iron ore is again a licence to print money for the big three of the WA industry – Rio Tinto, BHP and Fortescue.
Yes, the iron price has fallen away in the opening weeks of the December quarter to around $US85/t. But it is still a magical price for the WA producers (Fortescue on Thursday reported cash costs for September quarter of $US12.95/t).
All that is why the junior explorers/developers are back in the hunt for a slice of the action. Two names that have popped up recently are Fenix Resources (FEX) and TAO Commodities (TAO), with TAO currently in a trading halt.
But ah ha, have they left their run too late given the iron ore price fall in recent weeks? Not at all.
The fall to $US85/t was widely anticipated on China slowdown fears, and as mentioned, it is still a fantastic price.
And while most analysts have it falling lower still in 2020 as Brazil's iron ore king Vale makes meaningful headway in restoring as much as 60mtpa of lost production caused by its latest dam disaster in January, there was a reminder from Vale on Monday of the difficulties it faces.
The reminder came in a self-imposed geotechnical review of the Itabiricu tailings dam at the Conceicao mine.
The move only impacts 1.2mt of lost production in 2019 from a mine that is slated to close in 2020 anyway. The bigger point though is that the issue demonstrates the complexity and challenges in Vale's production recovery plan across its vast iron ore network.
All that means that the expected retreat in iron ore prices to levels below $US85/t is less likely than it was, which is good news for our iron ore producers and a bunch of juniors that want in on the WA iron ore industry.
Fenix Resources (ASX: FEX):
A diary note suggests that Fenix (trading at 4.2c for a diluted market cap of $19m) is about to lob a feasibility study into the development of its boutique Iron Ridge project in WA's mid-west.
That can be said because a recent update from the company said the FS was on track for delivery in October, and here we are with five days to go.
Fenix has said previously that it was planning a 1.25mtpa dig and truck operation of direct shipping ore grading close to 64%, a couple of percentage points above the 62% benchmark, and that the indicated resource was 10Mt.
From that it can be assumed Fenix is looking at an initial mine life of about 7 years, with the quality ore to be trucked some 500km to the Port of Geraldton for export.
While trucking will account for a big chunk of costs, Fenix does not have the infrastructure burden of having to build a rail line and port - the perennial capex challenge for companies looking to become a producer.
Assuming Fenix will be using a long-term iron ore price of around $US80/t in the FS, there is every reason to suspect that Iron Ridge is shaping up as a small but sweet fish, one capable of a quick start-up and a low capex requirement.
It is best to wait for the release of the FS but it seems more than likely that it will point to Iron Ridge's potential to produce annual EBITDA at or around a level equivalent to Fenix's current market cap, something that can't be said all that often.
That's why once the FS is out and all the approvals are in, Iron Ridge is likely to be of interest to some established players in the region with "stranded" deposits along the truck route to Geraldton. It could be the catalyst for a bigger play.
TAO Commodities (TAO):
TAO went into a trading halt on Wednesday pending the release of an announcement on a "material acquisition".
Best to wait and see what that's about but there has been chatter that it is picking up a package of strategic iron ore prospects/deposits across the Pilbara, all within easy striking distance of rail and port infrastructure owned by others.
TAO last traded at 14.5c for a market cap of all of $4.5m, most of which would be covered by cash left over from its April 2018 float, making it a neat vehicle for the Pilbara push, if in fact that is what it is up to.
The London Metal Exchange was nice and polite when it confirmed it would be having a look at what was behind the biggest-ever decline in nickel inventories to eight-year lows and the surge in the price to five-year highs.
The LME asked its members to identify client activity in nickel warrants since September 1, as well as what steps were taken to "ensure that the client's activity is not conducive to an abusive squeeze or other pattern of market abuse/disorderly market conduct".
But it also acknowledged that it was quite possible that the "market tightness may be reflective of genuine physical market conditions".
Indonesia's decision to bring forward its ore export ban from 2022 to January 2020 might have something to do it with, you would think.
But what the heck, after retreating from its peak in September, nickel has been doing nicely at around $US7.50/lb, making the year-to-date gain some 53% and the improvement on last (calendar) year's average some 23%.
Once again, it's a good time to be in the nickel space. It is a case of "once again" because it was only in 2016 that nickel got as low as $4.35/lb, having got as high as $US10.36/lb in 2011.
There is always a danger in suggesting things will be different this time around. But they might well be given this time there is a whole new growth sector for the metal on top of its current mainstay of stainless steel.
It's nickel as a key battery material for the electric vehicle and renewable energy storage revolution. And of all of the battery metals, nickel is not ready for coming demand due to under-investment and a lack of new discoveries caused by the 2011-2015 price collapse.
Mincor (MCR):
It is one thing to be returning Kambalda nickel mines to production in the greatly improved nickel market – things will get really exciting when and if the price hits $US9/lb – as Mincor (MCR) is busily doing.
It is another thing all together if the return to production can be matched up to one of the best nickel sulphide discoveries of recent times.
That's the position Mincor finds itself in through a restart feasibility study due in the March quarter next year and its high-grade exploration hits at Cassini, the new orebody to be wrapped into the restart plans with two previous producers, Durkin North and Long.
The feasibility for the restart plan, underpinned by the offtake agreement with BHP's Nickel West announced in August, is delayed from original expectations but only for the right reasons – the need to incorporate a run of high-grade exploration results from Cassini.
Most recently, Mincor reported a 12.3m hit grading 5.1% nickel within the CS5 channel and some 70m down-plunge from a previous hit of 15.4m at 4.7% nickel, with a new up-wedge hole aimed at finding out what is between.
The grade makes for very valuable dirt (more than $US800/t in-situ) which leaves the high-grade gold hits being reported around the place, and causing excitement for investors, in the shade.
It all augurs well for Mincor's plan to update the mineral resource estimate for Cassini (985,000 tonnes at 3.8% nickel for 37,800t of contained nickel) early next month. Some analysts believe something around 50,000t is well on the cards.
What is clearer is that the market, like the company itself, rates Cassini as something special. That comes through in recent broker valuations on Mincor, currently trading at 63c.
Euroz has a 90c target price on the stock, saying this week that the recent drill results have demonstrated the potential for Cassini to grow.

BOOM! Here she is in all her glory! My victory. Years, I really mean years, of trying and failing. I am ecstatic over this wonderful loaf of tangy, moist, chewy wonderfulness. This process of "fermenting" the wheat breaks down the acids in the grain, making all the goodness of wheat more bio-available and easier to digest. Traditions from our great-grandparents that we have put aside, and I aim to revive!
The trick? It was the culture, mostly. Here's where I purchased my first culture. Donna Schwenk writes that she mixed cultures from Russian and Finland. Wow.
Sourdough culture also picks up local beneficial bacteria, so now PLF little guys are in that mix. Cool!
The bread came out wonderful first thing but it wasn't tangy enough for my taste-buds…so more experimenting took place. It seems the little buggars peter out after too long "fermenting". I wanted that lump of dough to rise really slow, about 24 hours, but it kept just deflating. Another lump in the trash. Boo.
THEN I played around with the original process by adding only half of the freshly milled whole wheat flour, and then adding and stirring every now and again. Yeah, that's how I roll over here, so when you ask for a recipe, I usually give you a smirky face.
I use Montana Wheat products because they do not use glysophate on their crops. This is so important in my mind, as much of the problems with wheat allergies seem to point fingers to this terrible method of farming. The farmers (not the good ones) spray the grain days before harvest to kill the plant, to time the harvest with dry weather and to kill weeds for the next crop. Yuck. Also, Montana Wheat certifies no pesticides are in their wheat and they don't use any GMO wheat. I like their philosophy.
Read more about Wheat Montana here.
The ingredients are so simple. Another reason to love this process. I mill the wheat, add water and sourdough culture. Let it ferment, then add local honey and olive oil and sea salt. That's it!
You can order your sourdough starter from Cultured Food Life or you can let the pros do it for you!
Email me at jeffandlizdodson@gmail.com $8.00 for a large loaf and we do ship, Minimum 2 loaf order because shipping would be crazy expensive for you.

Daphne arrived at Simon's favorite café to find the surviving half of the Quartet seated and pondering a pair of stainless teapots like they were a chessboard.
"Austeja Dapkunaite!" Jan cried when he noticed her approaching. As she set down the chair she had lifted on the way, he added, "That was her real name!"
Elijah nodded ever so slightly. "The Duchess Va-Va-Voom."
"They called her Jaja," said Jan.
The three of them sat without talking. Death was death regardless of the motives of its victims. Jan finally broke the consensual silence: "At least the dog survived!"
"Poor Queequeg," said Daphne, shaking her head. "He must have PTSD."
Jan scowled. "What's that?"
"It means he may have nightmares," said Elijah.
"They always have nightmares," scoffed Jan. "Haven't you ever watched a dog sleep?"
Daphne had to laugh. "Don't you think they're having happy dreams about chasing rabbits?"
"My dogs dreamt that I had frikandellen in the skillet that I refused to share with them. So they were nightmares!"
Elijah smiled.
Now Jan returned to brooding. "The man is certainly hateful, but this is terrible what has happened to him."
"Winkill or Trygve?" asked Daphne.
It was just a single bullet that had entered Thornton Winkill, piercing his spine, with the expectation that he would be unable to walk—like George Wallace, Larry Flynt, and Dr. Strangelove.
"So was it her?" she asked.
Jan shook his head. "I don't believe she could seek to take a life."
"Perhaps she thought she was avenging Simon's," said Elijah.
"But she left Simon there with Winkill," argued Daphne. "She set him up."
"You don't know that," said Jan. "You said you arrived, and it was only Simon and him."
"There's more to the story," said Elijah.
"Perhaps she merely meant to frighten him with the bullets," said Jan. He was upset. "What did she mean by anything? This has come to so much grief!"
"We didn't understand her motives," said Daphne. "Or at least I didn't. If you don't understand what motivates people, they are as unpredictable as psychopaths."
"She's an enigma," said Elijah. "She's much older than she looks."
"I thought she was much younger than she looks," said Jan.
"She wore too many saris," said Daphne.
Elijah sang, "Who's sari now?"
It was all so absurd. How could a clown wield such dangerous power?
"In any event," said Jan with a sigh, "she is at large."
Here Elijah turned to his open valise on the floor beside him. "On that discordant note," he said, struggling to extract the contents, "I have Margie's goods."
He produced four inches of yellowed, sloppily aligned manuscript and slapped it on the table the way men in cooking shows did a large intact fish. The musty paper was enveloped by a stained Manila folder and three dingy rubber bands. It reminded Daphne of the stuff heaving out of the Pent-a-flex folders blocking Eugenie's stairway.
"Anything you want to tell me about it?" she asked.
"Haven't looked at it," said Elijah.
She was skeptical. "Nothing?"
"Just this advice: Don't go over-editing. If the Times had got hold of Cole Porter's scribbling, we'd be left with To the beat of the drum, night 'n day, you're the one."
"Don't be harsh on Tibor Brull," said Jan.
"So he is definitely a character?" she asked Elijah.
"I'm assuming. As I said, I haven't read it."
"Do you like his work?" she asked Jan.
"As a young man I had one of his books."
"There weren't many," said Elijah.
"Was it Five Winters?" she asked Jan.
"Yes, that's the one."
Elijah looked down at the slatternly stack. "Her estate made photocopies of the Brull letters she pinched. They're somewhere in here."
"Did you at least read them?" she asked.
He shook his head.
"Aren't you curious?"
He sighed. "And, Daddy, can I have that big elephant over there?"
She smiled. "Oh, come on, Elijah. Don't you want to know if the hero takes the bullet at the end?"
This made him smile back at her. "You already sound like Margie."
"Take the bullet or take the hemlock," said Jan testily, "someone needs to die if there is to be a book!"
Now Daphne felt sad. "Someone always needs to die."
Jan stared at her. "So, where is he?"
Elijah made a face. "Where is who?"
Jan continued to look at Daphne. "Where is your X buried?"
She thought for a moment. "He's not."
"Then what did you do with his body?" he pressed.
She looked away. "His ashes are in my apartment. In a box. In a corner. His father had a black-sheep brother who claimed all his family's money. Luckily, I got the ashes."
"Where did he want them to end up then?" asked Jan.
She stared down at her hands. "He didn't know he was going to die."
"Water," said Elijah. "Water's always a good place."
Jan scowled at him.
"He wouldn't want it to be back in Chicago," she said. "There was no space at the cemetery with his parents and sister."
Jan grunted. "Why not throw them in the pond at Mount Auburn? You seem to like throwing things in there."
She thought on this. "Sometimes I think the reason I don't get sad at Mount Auburn is because he's not there." She looked at Elijah. "Elsewhere underwrites his existence."
Elijah poured more water into his cup. "The elsewhere that underwrites humankind's existence is poetry," he said. "Poetry in all of its nervy manifestations—Camus or Sibelius, the James Gang or statecraft. You will only find consolation if you've found poetry."
After snacks of lemon squares and kiwi tarts and the arrival of Martha Downey in her Skylark, Daphne made sure to hug them both like she might never see them again. When they left on the sad adventure of comforting Susan Frost, she removed the rubber bands and the folder and began turning pages.
How does it happen that a life is erased this perfectly—not merely a singular configuration of molecules but the infinite possibilities of language? The genius I am defending from memory annihilation was not sent to the Gulag or kept just on torment's edge like Akhmatova. All she did was live—and write.
She was my lover's neighbor when the brutal part of the erasure occurred. Immediately after, French-speaking nuns—one tall and thin, the other short and fat—came "for poor Emily's sentimental things" but went away with armfuls of paper. They took it, all of it, her legacy, after he took her life.
What kind of book was this? The unnamed narrator seemed to be Margie, which didn't at all square with what Elijah had said about her loathing the confessional. The erased life belonged to Emily Hanscomb, whose story sounded too comical to be real—a foundling discovered in a picnic basket on a covered bridge, a rural Catholic parish taking the discarded child as its ward, the nuns like drawings out of the Madeleine books. This Emily went through many rings of hell to arrive in New York in 1941—a "sad little wage-maker" scribbling ad copy for Gimbels while trying to write the Great American Novel, with a hasty marriage to a sailor with the same surname and a fateful encounter with Tibor Brull in the Oak Room bar at the Plaza.
Here was the kicker though: "You knew where to find her if you cared to look—in Room 304 of the New York Public Library." Had Elijah really not looked at Margie's manuscript ever? Or was it that he had looked at Margie's manuscript at another time—say, in 1968, after she died—and that's where the story of Pandora came from? Daphne had been taught to trust the tale, not the teller, but Elijah as teller had spoken so genuinely of this woman in Room 304. His Pandora seemed so real in his telling. Could this kind of bizarre coincidence happen in the cool and dilute universe?
Daphne found the two badly photocopied letters from Brull—both disappointingly short, both disappointingly French. His handwriting slanted leftward, as if trying to lie down on its back. There was also a microfiche copy of an old newspaper page with most of the paper smudged black: "Woman found dead in 86th Street apt." Was it this photocopy Elijah saw or the actually paper in 1945? According to what Daphne could read of the article, it was the apartment of a man known as The Faucet King, and it appears to have been accidental, although the NYPD "did not rule out foul play." A large wall shelf of Asian antiquities had toppled onto her, and she died from head and other injuries. Apparently the brackets had pulled loose from the walls. Those antiquities, said The Faucet King, were priceless. Neither he nor his devastated Queen knew Emily Hanscomb or why she'd been in their apartment.
Marjorie Swain was not the type to write cliché, and maybe that's why she or someone had written "LIE" in the manuscript margin near the passage about the evil nuns absconding with armfuls of Emily's papers. According to the narrator, Brull was somehow involved in the foul play—and then he went and jumped off a bridge. There was so much side-story Daphne couldn't possibly absorb from just skimming pages, but the narrator admits to being "pathologically jealous" of Emily's talent, of her magnum opus in-progress, parts of which the Margie character has read.
Clearly, Emily Hanscomb has been violated in this entangled past—maybe by one perpetrator in one time and place or by several in different times and places. Daphne had always admired Marjorie Swain's prose—the strength of her protagonists beneath wrecked lives—while having pity for her addictions and the way she spent her life. But now she wondered if the germ of Frothingham came from this other writer. Had Margie taken what she remembered of Emily's book for her own after Emily and her manuscript disappeared, or was it Margie herself who carried away Emily's papers? And who could blame either woman for anything she did trying to gain a literary foothold in a world that kept women down?
The girl behind the counter squeezed the balloon on the Harpo Marx–style rubber horn twice, indicating the café would be closing in fifteen minutes. Daphne had been reading for hours. She looked up to what felt like a new world, one where ghosts no longer frightened—the one seen by the nonbeliever's dead mother, the one seen by Mr. Dowling's dead wife, the one in the machines that talked to her. Was it Margie Swain, Emily Hanscomb, or the genius of Mistress Eugenie? Perhaps the manuscript Daphne had seen Elijah give Eugenie that day was a copy of this one. She thought of the "MSS EUGENIE" on the mailboxes and the Fedex bills—"MSS" ought to stand for "manuscripts." Maybe Eugenie was merely an amalgam of manuscripts—the ones she demanded of all her confidents, the ones that blocked her stairway.
The song that had cycled on to the café's system was Todd Rundgren's "Can We Still Be Friends"—incredibly appropriate now that Daphne was thinking about her mother and Jack. The sad drama of so many far-away ghost lives had caused her to wonder why she dwelt so little on the sad drama of her own family.
Let's admit we made a mistake, but can we still be friends?
Jack survived a total of four run-ins with lightning. His tent was struck by it twice—near Lake Champlain and in the Allegheny highlands of Pennsylvania. Luckily the poles took the charge on both hits. His rental car was struck in the middle of the night while he was driving in Oklahoma, instantly knocking out the electrical system—an "act of God" that insurance doesn't cover. And lightning struck a pole barn where his research team was hoarding samples of Marcellus shale, setting it ablaze in a massive blue fireball.
. . . can we still get together some time?
His fascination with lightning Daphne found contagious. He told her there were somewhere between 1,500 and 2,000 thunderstorms occurring on Earth at any given time, and that lightning can strike from a clear blue sky, after the storm has wound down to a distant squelch. A fifth of all lightning victims are immediately struck dead. You die because the electrical rhythm of your heart has been interrupted, your cardiomyocytes decimated. Lightning can also halt breathing by shutting down the respiratory drive. It travels over surfaces so fast it doesn't have a chance to burn. "The miracle with lightning is that so many survive," he told her, "not that some die."
We awoke from our dreams, things are not always what they seem . . .
Miracles were not something Daphne ever talked about with her mother. She didn't even know what her mother believed about God—nothing beyond I didn't make you get down on your knees and pray. As for the universe, she remembered that her mother took her out of school one day to visit the Rochester Planetarium, where people leaned back in the dark and didn't speak, gazing at the hugeness of an ersatz universe and its dazzling infinitude of stars, looming almost pornographic above the humbled earthlings. A voice in the dark identified characteristics of the various constellations that blinked a different color on cue. Daphne's mother had tried to make her laugh by whispering, "Do you think that's God?" Then she leaned closer to add, "Let's stay here forever, Daphne, you and me—looking at the stars, all the constellations. Let's just stay here in the dark with these stars, watching for the lucky ones that burn out and die away."

Sel Gris French Grey Sea Salt is hand harvested from the clay-lined salt ponds in the Guérande region of France, giving it a soft grey color and mineral-rich moisture. One of the most well-known gourmet French sea salts, Sel Gris has a crunchy texture that works well with grilled and braised meats, roasted potatoes and other root vegetables. Though iconic in French cuisine, the characteristic briny flavor pairs nicely with a wide variety of foods, from roasted nuts to stews and salads to cookies, and is one of the most popular salts for topping homemade chocolate caramels. Sel Gris is a delicious, mineral-rich substitute for everyday table salt, and comes in a variety of grain sizes to fit every kitchen.
Sel Gris Velvet (Powder): Sel Gris is stone ground by hand until it reaches a smooth, silky feel reminiscent of luxurious velvet. This powdered salt feels similar in texture to fine baking flour, and is perfect for snack foods, such as popcorn, chips and roasted nuts. Due to the extremely fine grain, a little pinch of Sel Gris Velvet goes a long way.
Sel Gris Grey Sea Salt (Velvet Grain) - 5 lb Bag is rated 5.0 out of 5 by 69.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Runya from My go to salt in every day cooking I first tried this salt a few years ago and have reordered it a number of times since. This is my favorite salt for every day cooking. The texture is just perfect, I get it in Tamise grain which is a little coarser than normal table salt. This salt has a high moisture content and a milder flavor than regular sea salt. In my experience it is also a bit less salty, most likely due to high mineral content. Very versatile and great for anything. I even use it when making sauerkraut and pickles.
Rated 5 out of 5 by banks from Everything tastes better w/Sel Gris Grey Sea Salt We have been using this salt for about 4 years now and everyone who tries it, is a huge fan. Just wish I had owned stock! All kidding aside, it's so gourmet, you don't need anything else. For instance, broil or Sous Vide your salmon and put a little butter on it and this salt. You will see that you don't need anything else. It's truly a gourmet item that simplifies your cooking. P.S. It's my 'go to' for gift-giving.
Rated 5 out of 5 by mikel52 from Great Salt This is 5th or 6th time that I have purchased 5 lbs. bags of Sel Gris Grey Sea Salt from SaltWorks! Needless to say I have always been very happy with the Salt and service from SaltWorks. I have also bought other Salt products as presents and they have always been well received. I highly recommend SaltWorks Co. and will continue to use them as my sole source for salt products and anything else they offer for sale!
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chef E from Awesome for Meats! I love to use this salt on fish and other meats. I think the flavor adds an extra dimension when grilling, braising, and steaming. I also like to use a variety of other salts to round out the minerals available during a meal and increase its nutritional value. For example, I usually use Sel Gris on fish, Red Hawaiian on barbecued meats, Himalayan when baking, Mediterranean for making charcuterie, etc.
Rated 5 out of 5 by PennyLane from Works well with standard measurements I have tried many sea salts. I settled on this one years ago because it is not only delicious and rich as a finishing salt, but it is o e of the rare sea salts that conforms to standard measurements in recipes. If a recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of salt, you simply use 1 teaspoon of sel gris fine grain. No worries about over or understating your favorite recipes. Highly recommend.
Rated 5 out of 5 by ilaj from My favorite salt I've been buying Sel Gris grey sea salt (fine) from Saltworks for over a decade. I try other salts from them from time to time, but I always return to this one. I like that the salt is exposed to the sun, is harvested by hand, and stone-ground in a part of the world that really cares about the quality and integrity of the salt they produce. This is my favorite salt.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Anna88 from Best Salt Ever, and great value in 5# bag! I have used grey sea salt exclusively for years, both the fine grain and the coarser Tamise (just coarse enough, but not chunky). It is delicious and nutritious and getting the 5# bags is a truly great value! I used to buy this type of salt elsewhere, but it is a better value for the same excellent quality at Saltworks. I never allow my family to be without this salt.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chandrpr from Go to everyday Salt This is my everyday salt and I love the clean but interesting flavor. It's the right texture for finishing dishes as well as for regular cooking. I also am a use your hands to salt things type of person and love the damp sand texture this salt has. I wouldn't use it to salt your popcorn though- too heavi for that and it sinks to the bottom.
