Perry's Arcana
bioephemera | August 13, 2011
From 1810-11, architect and amateur naturalist George Perry published The Arcana, a lavishly illustrated, serial natural history magazine. Although Perry intended for the serial issues to be assembled by his subscribers into a book, only thirteen complete copies are known to survive today. More than a third of the known copies are in Australia - perhaps fittingly, as Perry was the first to publish an illustration of the koala (above). Perry's work is not well known; in researching this post, all I could find online were auction listings and occasional references to a recent facsimile…
Flipping through the uncanniest of books
bioephemera | August 6, 2011
This little video from Abebooks is the closest I've ever gotten to flipping through a copy of the Codex Seraphinianus. What a truly weird book. I particularly love it when the staid narrator reveals his "favorite" illustration - a roller skater murdered by a monstrous pen. What?! The Codex reminds me of If You're Afraid of the Dark, Remember the Night Rainbow by Cooper Edens. My mom had a copy and I used to flip through it as a child, confused and not a little disturbed. I still took things too literally to appreciate the visual non sequiturs, combined with the nonsensical text ("If you…

The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science. Whoever does not know it can no longer wonder, no longer marvel, is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmed. Albert EinsteinIdeas and Opinions, New York: Crown, 1954. (quoted in Lawrence Weschler's Mr. Wilson's Cabinet of Wonder: Pronged Ants, Horned Humans, Mice on Toast, and Other Marvels of Jurassic Technology, New York: Random House, 1995.)
Fold-out vintage medical books
bioephemera | May 18, 2011
Animated Anatomies, a new show at the Perkins Library at Duke University, explores the tradition of fold-out or pop-up paper anatomical diagrams: Animated Anatomies explores the visually stunning and technically complex genre of printed texts and illustrations known as anatomical flap books. These publications invite the viewer to participate in virtual autopsies, through the process of unfolding their movable leaves, simulating the act of human dissection. This exhibit traces the flap book genre beginning with early examples from the sixteenth century, to the colorful "golden age" of…
Academia: a colossal waste of human capital?
Social Sciences bioephemera | May 16, 2011
They're doing exactly what we always complain our brightest students don't do: eschewing the easy bucks of Wall Street, consulting or corporate law to pursue their ideals and be of service to society. Academia may once have been a cushy gig, but now we're talking about highly talented young people who are willing to spend their 20s living on subsistence wages when they could be getting rich (and their friends are getting rich), simply because they believe in knowledge, ideas, inquiry; in teaching, in following their passion. To leave more than half of them holding the bag at the end of it all…
It is no longer possible to know everything there is to know
Free Thought bioephemera | May 16, 2011
Physicists are ontological detectives. We think of scientists as wholly rational, open to all possible arguments. But to begin with a conviction and then to use one's intellectual prowess to establish support for that conviction is a methodology that really has worked for scientists, including Deutsch. One could argue that he dreamed up quantum computing because he was devoted to the idea that science can explain the world. Deutsch would disagree. In "The Fabric of Reality," Deutsch writes, "I remember being told, when I was a small child, that in ancient times it was still possible to know…
The Meowmorphosis: blatant meme abuse?
bioephemera | May 3, 2011
Ok, what are the people at Quirk Books on? I have to say, I love the cover of the book, and the typographical trailer is cute - but isn't this just blatant meme abuse? Quirk explains The Meowmorphosis thus. . . "One morning, as Gregor Samsa was waking up from anxious dreams, he discovered that he had been changed into an adorable kitten." Thus begins The Meowmorphosis--a bold, startling, and fuzzy-wuzzy new edition of Franz Kafka's classic nightmare tale, from the publishers of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies! Meet Gregor Samsa, a humble young man who works as a fabric salesman to support…
Surrender, don't cull
bioephemera | April 24, 2011
From Linda Holmes, a poignant post about how the deluge of information makes it impossible to scratch the surface in a single lifetime: there are really only two responses if you want to feel like you're well-read, or well-versed in music, or whatever the case may be: culling and surrender. Culling is the choosing you do for yourself. It's the sorting of what's worth your time and what's not worth your time. It's saying, "I deem Keeping Up With The Kardashians a poor use of my time, and therefore, I choose not to watch it." It's saying, "I read the last Jonathan Franzen book and fell asleep…

Wait - did Peter Nowogrodski just shoehorn everything I love into one meandering, indulgent multimedia essay??* Tolkien's Shire appears as a coherent ecosystem, cradled by productive fields and populated by abundant orchards, caches of edible mushroom, and even the fishable Bywater Pool, ornamented with an authentic churning mill.

Brian Dettmer, the Book Surgeon
Lest any of my faithful readers think they're the only ones whose wonderful linky suggestions I don't seem to get around to posting, my boyfriend sent me this and I didn't post it, and apparently it's on the Daily Dish and 3QD today & he's all like "why didn't you post it sooner? Didn't you get my email??" Sigh. So for the record: Brian Dettmer is amazing. He makes these sculptures by carving away - not adding or repositioning - the pages of old illustrated books. And another thing that's really cool: letting the blogosphere (that's me!) disseminate and respond to his work is part of…
Getting accurate about "my" brain: modularity, consciousness, and the evolution of hypocrisy
Policy bioephemera | January 19, 2011
Psychologist Robert Kurzban's new book promises to explain Why Everyone (Else) Is a Hypocrite. It's a bold promise, and I was skeptical when first invited to review it. But Kurzban delivered - hilariously, entertainingly so. Although since I agree with almost everything he writes, I may not be the most objective of critics. (FYI: this is a long review, so if you're short on time, you can skip to the end of the post, and watch the author's short video trailer about the book. Cheers.) For starters, Kurzban has convinced me to be more careful when I talk and write about my brain (and yours).…
"Science" from a vintage children's encyclopedia
bioephemera | January 19, 2011
I found this children's encyclopedia in a pile of books on the curb a few weeks ago. Some of its depictions of science are charming; some are odd, and all are really, really dated. More snapshots below the fold. . .
Things people swallowed 100 years ago
The NYT has a great little article about Chevalier Jackson, a turn-of-the-century doctor who kept a collection of foreign objects removed from people's throats. Dr. Jackson "preserved more than 2,000 objects that people had swallowed or inhaled: nails and bolts, miniature binoculars, a radiator key, a child's perfect-attendance pin, a medallion that says "Carry me for good luck." . . . He was so intent on assembling his collection that he once refused to return a swallowed quarter, even when its owner threatened his life." On February 18, the Mutter Museum, which owns Jackson's collection,…

Vintage science for the walls
bioephemera | December 30, 2010
This series of sciart wallpapers by Dan Funderburgh were inspired by the Time-Life Science Library, a series of educational books published in the 1960s. For those of us old enough to remember them, Time-Life's series are objects of nostalgia in themselves. Coupling the vintage design and palettes of those books with vintage sci-art symbolism yields a sharply contemporary set of prints. Funderburgh describes his work as "a repudiation of the fabricated schism between art and decoration;" you could also describe it as a repudiation of the fabricated gulf between science and design. (Fun…
why you should take your ngrams with a grain of salt
Because people have been discussing Google ngrams a lot, and because there are always major caveats to new datamining methodologies, I have to link Natalie Binder's excellent series of posts urging caution, not only about the methodology, but about assuming too much about ngrams' utility in social research. Binder says, The value of the Ngrams Viewer rests on a bold conceit: that the number of times a word is used at certain periods of time has some kind of relationship to the culture of the time. For example, the fact that the word "slavery" peaks around 1860 suggests that people in 1860…

Golden Globes: Amy Schumer Talks Bittersweet Year, Gun Violence After Best Actress Nomination
" 'I wish I never even made this movie,' " she recalled thinking after the 'Trainwreck' theater shooting in July. "And then I was like, 'No, this is a call for me to get involved and do what I can.'"

Amy Schumer earned a best actress Golden Globe nomination on Thursday for her breakout role in Trainwreck, capping off a bittersweet year for the comedian.
Schumer, who was nominated for best actress in a motion picture comedy or musical, says she hit the lowest of lows after a Louisiana theater screening the film became the site of a mass shooting in July that claimed the lives of two audience members and left another nine injured.
"When the shooting happened in Lafayette, and Mayci Breaux and Jillian Johnson died, I was just completely heartbroken," Schumer told The Hollywood Reporter. "I was like, 'I wish I never even made this movie.' I was having these thoughts where I was just so upset. And then I was like, 'No, this is a call for me to get involved and do what I can.' It's been really frustrating, but I really think we can end gun violence at the level it's at. I feel like I'm helping, and I want to keep helping. I would rather not have to be involved and have everything be great already. But I'm proud to be saying what I believe in."
Golden Globes: 'Carol' Seduces Its Way to Top of Film List With Five Nominations
Earlier this week, Schumer joined Sofia Vergara, Jennifer Aniston and other high-profile industry voices calling for legislative action in the wake of the recent mass shooting in San Bernardino, Calif., as part of an Everytown for Gun Safety campaign.
But after receiving her first-ever Golden Globe nom, the comedian allowed herself to revel in the accomplishment.
"Yay, I did it! I'm so excited!" she said. "I was in bed, and I woke up at 8:30 and thought I had missed it and realized I hadn't. I opened my computer and went to the Golden Globes website, and America Ferrara was just beginning to call us, and I love her. And then Dennis Quaid said [my name], and he's my friend. I started tearing up."
As she recounted the moment, Schumer delivered a perfect imitation of Quaid saying "Trainwreck" in his deep Moviefone voice (the film also was nominated for best picture, comedy or musical).
Two years ago, Schumer didn't even think Trainwreck was going to happen.
Golden Globes: What the Nominees Are Saying
"I thought [director-producer Judd Apatow] was just punking me," she said. "[Now] I can't wait to share this with everyone in the movie."
Though she hadn't yet heard from Apatow or co-star LeBron James, she did receive one special text.
"The first text I got was from Chris Rock — he's an up-and-coming comedian, you know?" quipped Schumer. "He said: 'Golden Globes motherf—er!' "
Despite the exciting morning, it's back to work today for the comic actress. "[I'm] going to box in 10 minutes, then off to the writer's room for my show [Comedy Central's Inside Amy Schumer]," said Schumer. "It's a perfect way to celebrate."

What Is Joe Fresh? Canadian Retailer Known For Its On-Trend, Affordable Clothes
Chloe Tejada The Huffington Post Canada
THE CANADIAN PRESS/Nathan Denette
You may have seen a Joe Fresh store when doing your shopping at Loblaws, but the Canadian retailer is more than just a quick stop after you get your groceries.
Founded by designer Joe Mimran in 2006 (he is also known for launching Canadian cult favourite Club Monaco), Joe Fresh now has almost 400 clothing stores including locations in Canadian supermarkets and superstores, as well as standalone locations.
The retailer was thrust into the spotlight Wednesday when it was revealed that Joe Fresh garments had been produced in a Bangladesh plant whose collapse killed more than 80 people.
Known for its bright orange logo, the semi-eponymous Joe Fresh brand specializes in trendy, affordable clothes, shoes and accessories for women, men and children.

Joe Fresh Fashion
Clothes hounds can find everything from striped dresses, print blazers, floral scarves and pastel leather school bags for a fraction of the price of other on-trend brands.
Joe Fresh also offers a chic 'n cheap makeup and beauty line, including lipstick, nail polish and eye shadow in vibrant hues.
Joe Fresh is much-loved in Canada, and is one of the few budget-friendly brands that has legitimate street cred, thanks in part to its edgy designs and Mimran's Club Monaco past. To keep up its high profile, the label puts on splashy runway shows at Toronto Fashion Week every season, usually bagging a high-profile model or two, such as Canadian Coco Rocha who walked on the Joe Fresh runway for their Fall 2008 collection.
The brand expanded into the United States in 2011 and now boasts a flagship store on Fifth Avenue in New York City and other stores located throughout New York.
In July 2012 it was announced that the brand was teaming up with American retailer jcpenney to open up close to 700 Joe stores in jcpenney outlets across the United States. Joe Fresh made its Oscars debut earlier this year with an ad spot that aired during the Oscars in February.

Using the digital wish grant Benton Middle School will be able to film a daily news broadcast for students to view.
In this project students develop and design a video of photographs taken of the major events from the Civil War.
Students will understand and comprehend how to investigate a crime scene and the importance of crime scene photography.
Student will use flip camcorders to record virtual tours of different parts of the school in Spanish.
Making poetry come alive for tenth grade students is about encouraging students to reflect and examine their world. Using poetry models and digital cameras, student created poetry comes alive and is captured for PodCast and VCast to be shared with friends, family and community members.
Students (in teams) will edit a short film using Final Cut Pro.
Objectives: The students will use childhood vocabulary words and the imperfect past tense to write a letter describing activities and interests that they had throughout their childhood. The students will utilize the preterite past tense to describe one �bad� event that took place and to explain a cause/effect result of that event. The students will then utilize the present tense to describe solutions that have initiated in their lives to improve or make up for that initial �bad� event.


Keep things casual with the Crafted Red Tartan Set. Whilst the long sleeved t-shirt features frilled shoulders and sequinned detail, the elasticated leggings boast a vibrant tartan print. It's the perfect everyday outfit.

"CORIOLANUS" (Shakespeare in the Parking Lot)
Municipal Parking Lot at the corner of Ludlow and Broome Streets, Manhattan
August 2-18
Coriolanus" has been re-envisioned as a modern day "election fable" in the second production of the Drilling Company's 2012 Shakespeare in the Park(ing) Lot series. This "Coriolanus" is set during an election year, when money can buy power and working class citizens feel threatened by a dwindling patrician class who are seeking to solidify their political power by manipulating political figures. The title character, played by Arash Mokhtar, is a potential leader who is vaunted for his success as a warrior but is completely out of touch with the every day citizen's experience of hunger and joblessness.

GEORGE BARBA YIORGI AND THE BYZAN-TONES
An Illustrated lecture and book signing with Rachel Poliquin, author of The Breathless Zoo and the blog "Ravishing Beasts"
In her new book The Breathless Zoo: Taxidermy and the Cultures of Longing, Rachel Poliquin–best known for her blog "Ravishing Beasts"–explores the cultural history and poetic resonance of taxidermy from its rudimentary beginnings in cabinets of wonder to its revival in contemporary art. From hunting trophies to extinct species and kitten weddings to perpetual pets, The Breathless Zoo examines the meaning and matter of preserved animal-things and why anyone would want them to exist, and attempts to get to the heart of taxidermy by answering two fundamental questions: why would anyone want to preserve an animal, and what is this animal-thing now? Animal or object? Animal and object. This is the irresolvable tension that defines all taxidermy. As The Breathless Zoo demonstrates, with taxidermy there are no easy answers.
The Fall of the American Movie Palace
There's nothing remarkable about a movie theater today, but there used to be. When the great American Movie Palaces opened, they were some of the most lavish, stunning buildings anyone had ever seen. With the birth of the multiplex, theater companies found it harder and harder to keep these buildings open. Some were demolished, some were converted, and some remain to this day. "The Fall of the American Movie Palace" will take you through the history of these magnificent buildings, from their opening in the early 1900s to years after the final curtain.

Microcosm: Sonic Territories
Microcosm is Jonas Braasch's new project. Expanding from his solo work, Microcosm is — in a nutshell — in a band with Jonas on the soprano saxophone, his alter ego on the Arturia Moog foot pedal, and Caira, an intelligent agent who improvises autonomously with the trio using auditory scene analysis techniques, machine listening, and logic-based reasoning. The agent is currently being developed through support from the National Science Foundation, together with team members Doug Van Nort, Pauline Oliveros, and Selmer Bringsjord. The Microcosm project was conceived to cross traditional boundaries between arts and science, and was conceptualized out of the desire to perform with an inspiring ensemble that can follow and provide musical cues very quickly. The concert will include adaptations from Jonas' previous works: "Global Reflections", "Sonic Territories", and "Quartet for the End of Space", which were released on Deep Listening and Pogus.

Three Colorists: curated by Michael Walls — Eozen Agopian, Alan Kleiman, Diane Mayo
Where: Lesley Heller Workspace
When: June 6 – July 6, 2012, Opening Reception: Wednesday, June 6, 6-8pm
Three Colorists, curated by Michael Walls, highlights the work of three artists who have several things in common: they began their professional life as painters; the oeuvre of each importantly involves the role of color; and the work of each is not only labor intensive, but also revealing of a hard-won mastery of the chosen craft.
LABAPALOOZA! MINI FESTIVAL OF NEW PUPPET THEATER FROM THE LAB
Where: St. Ann's Warehouse
When: MAY 31-JUNE 3
It's the last show before we move to our new location at 29 Jay Street! What better way to say goodbye to 38 Water Street than with our 14th annual Labapalooza Festival? This year's line-up of works-in-progress ranges from the traditional to the irreverent, from the ground breaking to the nostalgic, and from delightful to downright punk-rock.
Masterpiece Theater Curated by: Geoffrey Young
Where: Morgan Lehman
When: May 31 – June 30
If theatrical is the question, masterpiece is the answer. Modesty in art is over-rated, as anyone with a Schnabel complex knows, so be prepared for the challenge of ascertaining the significance of what these artists have been cooking up over the past four months. Yes, each can draw, paint, and employ color to bold effect, but that's of secondary importance (the least we can expect of an artist). What drives these artists is Imagination. Another word for imagination is risk, another word for risk is danger, another word for danger is aesthetics. And aesthetics, as we know, is for the birds. But these artists aint tweeting.

Photographing the Dead: The History of Postmortem Photography from The Burns Collection and Archive
Postmortem photography, photographing a deceased person, was a common practice in the 19th and early 20th centuries. These photographs, from the beginning of the practice until now, are special mementos that hold deep meaning for mourners through visually "embalming" the dead. Although postmortem photographs make up the largest group of nineteenth-century American genre photographs, until recent years they were largely unseen and unknown. Dr. Burns recognized the importance of this phenomenon in his early collecting when he bought his first postmortem photographs in 1976. Since that time he has amassed the most comprehensive collection of postmortem photography in the world and has curated several exhibits and published three books on the subject: the Sleeping Beauty series. Tonight, Dr. Burns will speak about the practice of postmortem photography from the 19th century until today and share hundreds of images from his collection.

KRONOS QUARTET: Awakening: A Musical Meditation on the Anniversary of 9/11
Part of the 2011 Next Wave Festival
Sep 21—24, 2011 at 7:30pm
Pioneering contemporary music ensemble Kronos Quartet (More Than Four, 2007 Next Wave) returns to BAM with a heartfelt program comprising 12 compositions—including works by Michael Gordon, Terry Riley, Osvaldo Golijov and Gustavo Santaolalla, and John Oswald—plus gripping arrangements of traditional songs from around the globe. This stirring collection of works reflects upon those instances where traditional language fails us, and music steps in to restore what violinist David Harrington refers to as "equilibrium in the midst of imbalance."

Support This Project: Secret City, Thomas Bangsted
July 27, 2011 January 22, 2012 | The 22 Magazine
Thomas Bangstead's surreal and sublime portraits of oft vacant landscapes and still life's, seem to embody the suspense of the "happened."
Devoid of obvious action, Bangstead's work instead lingers in the moment (perhaps even the second) after a tragedy, before a meal, or in the midst of a scenic view and leave the viewer to conjure their own narratives based on these strange vignettes.
Bangstead is also currently part of "The Woods are Lovely, Dark, and Deep" at Asya Geisberg gallery and will be giving a talk on his work this coming Thursday during the Chelsea Art Walk. If you can, please help support Thomas and The Secret City!

Center for Book Arts: Art Study Tours: Illuminating Fashion at the Morgan Library
Karen Gorst
July 28 , Thursday afternoon, 3pm
The Center is pleased to continue its series of Art Study Tours. Class will be taught off-site, behind-the-scenes at various institutions, collections, and artists' studios. This summer series will take advantage of the cultural resources in New York City and will focus on color and the uses and making of pigments. Consisting of 3 visits throughout the city this July and August, students may sign up for all three in the series or just for one class, each taking place on a Thursday afternoon.
Illuminating Fashion at the Morgan Library and Museum. Visit this special exhibition and discover the uses of color in medieval manuscripts with an expert in the field, Karen Gorst. Drawn from the Morgan's collections, over fifty illuminated medieval and Renaissance manuscripts and early printed books are featured in the exhibition. Join us and discover the difference between the depictions of contemporary fashions and the actual colors used in clothing of the time period. Students will discuss from a historical perspective the process of making paints and dyes. The exhibition will be used as a backdrop for a discussion on the different artistic techniques employed to produce the color in medieval manuscripts and on fabric from the medieval period.
The Woods are Lovely, Dark, and Deep Artist's Talk.
Please join Asya Geisberg Gallery for the second annual Chelsea Art Walk on Thursday, July 28th from 5 – 8 pm.
At 6:15 pm we will host a wine reception and talk with the artists Thomas Bangsted and Allison Gildersleeve about the exhibition "The Woods are Lovely, Dark, and Deep".

Confluence an exhibition of paintings by Jess Hartley @Chashama.
Opening Reception July 29th 6pm – 10pm
Gallery Open July 29th through July 31st
Painting: a process, a reflection, an expression.
With the series "Confluence," Jess Hartely explores all-over abstraction. She begins her work by creating a series of thin layers from which the painting begins to emerge and take on its own form. Depth and color develop as the painting is built up with each layer. She uses masonite board because it resists the water and does not absorb it like canvas would. This extended period of fluidity allows her to explore risk and uncertainty. For Hartley, abstraction is all about the experiment. The work in this series is rooted in Hartley's own imagination, but follows the rules of experimental process that she has developed.

A Rite of Return
Wednesday, July 27, 7pm, $10/$8 BHS Members
Out of an anonymous 1870 pocket-size diary bestowed on historian Ben Feldman, a fantastic story emerged, and a 100-year old rent in the cloth of a family's history was repaired. Feldman will share the tale of Henry Knight Dyer (1846-1911), Brooklyn born and bred, who rose from a modest Fort Greene home and his first job as an office boy in the Dennison Paper Products Co. to become president of that multi-national enterprise at the turn of the twentieth century. Dyer's daily scribblings in a cheap paper volume, as a single 24-year old living in Brooklyn and working in lower Manhattan, inspired Feldman's lengthy journey for the truth of this man's life and his wife's sorry end after less than a year's widowhood.

Living Dolls: The Guinness Collection of Mechanical Musical Instruments and Automata at the Morris Museum
A live automata demonstration and illustrated lecture>by Jere Ryder, Conservator of the Guinness Collection of Mechanical Musical Instruments and Automata at the Morris Museum
Date: Friday, July 29th
Admission: $10
Presented by Morbid Anatomy
Sound Clip.
The Guinness Collection of Mechanical Musical Instruments and Automata at the Morris Museum in Morristown, New Jersey is one of the finest collections of automata–or moving mechanical toys popular in the 18th Century and 19th Centuries–in the world. Compiled over 50 years by heir to the Guinness beer fortune Murtogh D. Guinness (1913-2002), the collection features scores of immaculately preserved historic automata–many of them produced in 19th Century France–with subjects ranging from snake charmers to magicians, singing birds to anthropomorphic monkeys, Cleopatra in her death throes to a waltz-playing Mephistopheles; it also includes a number of mechanical musical instruments and a variety of programmed media ranging from player piano rolls to pinned cylinders.
PAPACOOKIE: Flight of the Fancypants w/ ENID ELLEN (+many more.)
High above the lusty and lo-hanging midnight mist, we'll gather like usual on floor number 8 but this time for something altogether different. Tonight Papa-C is a strange place. A spiritual place. A resplendent place. A haunted place. A place of sad, seductive glamour. Velvet. Sincerity. Lips. Pathos. Pretension. Rococo Red froufrou finery. It's summertime so wear something appropriate—like a 2-piece bathos suit with a dead poodle pattern and a locket around your neck. Lots of sunscreen, too!

ANNOUNCING THE OPENING EVENT FOR DEEP / SHALLOW
Friday, April 29th 7:00pm to 10:00pm
at The Gowanus Studio Space
166 7th Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues, Brooklyn
Reference material is as often heavily researched as it is happened upon. Artworks in DEEP/SHALLOW were made in response to The Library's collection of books and other printed materials donated from artists' own reference libraries. The appropriation of these resources forces a contextual continuity (which normally occurs organically and over time) across disciplines, content and processes. DEEP/SHALLOW will be on view at The Gowanus Studio Space from April 29th through May 29th 2011.

A baby girl was killed in New Jersey yesterday when a bus allegedly driven by a man using a cellphone struck a lamppost, sending it toppling onto her stroller in front of her horrified mom, authorities said.
The girl's mother — of 79th Street in North Bergen — was pushing the carriage on Boulevard East near 56th Street in West New York at 12:54 p.m. when a private Sphinx Transportation shuttle bus hit the decorative black lamppost.
The pole snapped at its base and struck 8-month-old Angela Paredes on the head, authorities said.
Christina Rodriguez, 22, was napping in her apartment across the street when the noise woke her.
The baby was rushed to the Jersey City Medical Center.
The bus driver was charged last night with death by auto and driving while using a cellphone, according to WABC-TV.

Failure to Diagnose
March 30, 2018 Blair Howard Injury, Medical Malpractice
MEDICAL MALPRACTICE CLAIMS
Medical science has made remarkable leaps forward in our lifetime, providing us all with a quality of life that past generations could not have imagined. Conditions that were once fatal are now routinely treated. In many cases, the success of treating an illness is very dependent on an early diagnosis. The failure to diagnose a potentially fatal condition can result in needless suffering and even death. Failing to diagnose cancer or heart disease at an early stage can devastate your family.

Other Types of Injury Accidents
March 16, 2018 Blair Howard Injury, Other Accidents
HOW WE AT HOWARD, MORRISON, ROSS & WHELAN CAN HELP
There are countless accidents which can cause severe and even life-threatening injuries. Regardless of the circumstances that you find yourself facing, it is vastly important that you get the legal assistance that you deserve in helping to fight for the compensation that you deserve. At Howard, Morrison, Ross & Whelan, our firm understands the complexity of personal injury claims and we are prepared to go above and beyond in our efforts to help seek maximum compensation. As an AV® rated firm by Martindale-Hubbell®, we have proven time and time again that we have what it takes to help in virtually every type of claim and lawsuit. Below, we explain just some of the different situations that we can help with involving personal injury claims:
With countless lakes and rivers flowing throughout Virginia, such as Lake Anna, Kerr Lake and Burke Lake, boating is a favorite pastime for many. Unfortunately, boating does not always have a happy ending. According to a 2007 report released by the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF), there were over 146 incidents in the year with over 100 injuries and 13 fatalities. From improperly trained operators to those who choose to drink behind the wheel, these accidents can be severe.
Public transportation is a commonly utilized method for cheap transportation – however, it is not without its dangers. Per the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), there were over 579 buses involving in fatal crashes in 2005-2006. According to this study, most often the accident was attributed to a driver error, such as inadequate surveillance, inattention and tailgating. Other causes can include bus fires, brake failures and even weather-related causes, such as having ice on the road.
Riding a bicycle instead of utilizing a passenger vehicle is a more cost-effective form of transportation, but can leave the bicyclist vulnerable should an accident occur. According to the Virginia Highway Safety Office, over 740 bike accidents occurred in 2011 – over a 100 spike from the year before. The causes of this are endless, but can often be attributed to drivers of passenger vehicles not paying attention to the smaller vehicles that they are sharing the road with, causing accidents when turning, crossing intersections and more.
While any job can leave an employee at risk of injuries, the construction industry is infamous for being one of the most dangerous of industries. From accidents occurring on scaffolding to accidents occurring from falling objects, there are countless causes to these types of injuries. If you have been involved in this type of accident, you could look into the possibility of filing a workers' compensation claim to protect your rights as an injured employee or you could look into pursuing a personal injury lawsuit. Either way, we could help.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) defines a pedestrian as anyone who is on foot – regardless of whether they are walking, running, jogging, hiking or sitting. Due to their lack of natural safety protection, accidents that involve pedestrians can be life-threatening in nature. In fact, in 2009, there were over 4,000 pedestrian fatalities – accounting for over 12 percent of all fatalities in traffic crashes.
Due to their massive size and high speed, accidents involving trains can be absolutely devastating. Take for example, the accident that occurred in Amherst County, VA in November 2011 where one train struck five pedestrians who had been walking on the trestle. If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident involving a train, regardless of the circumstances, you should not hesitate to get our involvement today.
These accidents can have a lasting impact on a victim's life, leaving them under mountains of debt and in significant pain or permanently disabled. Seeking compensation for the damages, injuries, and hardships you have had to endure as a result of an accident is an absolute necessity. If you have been injured in an accident, it is very important that you speak with an attorney immediately. A knowledgeable personal injury attorney representing you in your claim could greatly increase the amount of the compensation you receive in a settlement, judgment or verdict.

Ammonium Tungstates »
Ammonium Tungstates
The normal salt cannot be obtained by dissolving tungstic acid in aqueous ammonia, since on concentration ammonia is lost and an acid salt remains. That the normal tungstate is present in solution would appear evident from the fact that calcium chloride precipitates the normal calcium tungstate. It may be obtained as a white mass by the addition of hydrated tungstic acid to liquid ammonia. The normal tungstate is very soluble in water and readily loses ammonia.
The acid tungstate, 2(NH4)2O.3WO3.3H2O, sometimes crystallises from a very concentrated neutral solution of tungstic acid in ammonia, which, however, more often yields the paratungstate. The crystals, which are warty and indistinct, give off ammonia in contact with the air, leaving the paratungstate.
Ammonium paratungstate, 5(NH4)2O.12WO3.11H2O, is the product most frequently obtained by the interaction of tungstic acid and ammonia; for example, when tungstic acid is dissolved in aqueous ammonia, or when ammonia is added to a solution of ammonium meta- tungstate, on concentration of the resulting solution the paratungstate crystallises out. It is dimorphous and yields both acicular needles and laminated plates. The former are the more stable and are pseudo-rhombic (a:b:c = 0.7995:1:0.4582). The plates are triclinic pinacoidal, a:b:c = 0.9785:1:1.2154; α = 65° 47', β = 117° 33', γ = 119° 2'. Both forms are stable at ordinary temperatures, but when heated, begin to lose ammonia at 60° C.; at 100° C. lose 7 molecules of water; and at 250° C. yield the glass-like colloidal tungstate (see below). If the crystals are heated in contact with dry ammonia, they lose water and absorb ammonia. When boiled in aqueous solution for several days, the metatungstate is formed.
This salt was regarded by Berzelius and Anthon as the ditungstate; Lotz and Scheibler formulated it as 3(NH4)2O.7WO3.6H2O, but the formula given above is due to Marignac. Rosenheim suggests (NH4)10H4[H4(WO4)6(W2O7)3].7H2O.
The hydrate, 5(NH4)2O.12WO3.5H2O or 3(NH4)2O.7WO3.3H2O, is obtained by evaporation of a solution of ammonium paratungstate at temperatures near the boiling-point. It yields small, glistening, monoclinic prisms,
a:b:c = 1.0442:1:0.7871; β = 109° 50'.
On heating at 100° C. it loses 2 molecules of water. The electrical conductivity of solutions of this salt has been investigated. At 25° C. the equivalent conductivity of a N/128 solution increased from 95.1 to 109.0 reciprocal ohms in six days. The rate of increase was greater when the temperature was raised and was complete in about three hours at 80° C. The following table shows the equivalent conductivities at 25° C. of solutions containing 1/10 of a molecular weight in v litres, (a) when freshly made, (b) after heating at 80° C. for three hours and then allowing to cool:
v = 32 64 128 256 512 1024
(a)Λ = 62.0 71.7 83.7 93.3 103.9 120.2
(b)Λ = 102 112 121 131 139 148
A hydrate, 5(NH4)2O.12WO3.6H2O, has been obtained by the addition of acetic acid to a solution of ammonium tungstate.
The acid salt, 2(NH4)2O.5WO3.5H2O, is produced by cooling a hot saturated solution of ammonium paratungstate, when it separates in small octahedral plates with crystallographic elements:
a:b:c = 1.1204:1:1.7190; α = 105° 46', β = 95° 17', γ = 90° 1'.
It dissolves in 26 to 29 parts of water. On heating at 100° C. it loses about seven-tenths of its water of crystallisation.
The octatungstate, 3(NH4)2O.8WO3.8H2O, is sometimes obtained when a solution of the preceding salt is allowed to crystallise; but from a hot solution, the trihydrate, 2(NH4)2O.5WO3.3H2O, has been obtained.
A colloidal tungstate, of composition (NH4)2O.6WO3.4 or 6H2O, results as a vitreous mass when ammonium para- or meta-tungstate is heated to 250° C. It is miscible with water in all proportions and absorbs ammonia readily, thus reverting to the meta-salt.
The following double ammonium sodium tungstates have been prepared: 3(NH4)2O.3Na2O.16WO3.22H2O; 16(NH4)2O.4Na2O.50WO3.50H2O; 6(NH4)2O.5Na2O.24WO3.27H2O.
The compound, WO3.3NH3, probably ammonium imidotungstate, NH:WO(O.NH4)2, is obtained by heating the oxychloride, WO2Cl2, with liquid ammonia under pressure.
A tungstate of hydroxylamine, 4NH2OH.3WO3.3H2O, is produced when hydroxylamine hydrochloride is added to a solution of sodium tungstate; it appears as a white precipitate which turns pale yellow on drying.
Hydroxylamine ammonium tungstate, NH4O.WO4.NH4, is prepared by treating finely powdered sodium paratungstate with an aqueous solution of hydroxylamine hydrochloride, and then dissolving the product in 15 per cent, ammonia. It crystallises in black tablets on evaporating the solution over potassium hydroxide. It is a strong reducer, and immediately reduces ammoniacal silver nitrate and Fehling's solution.
The following ammonio-tungstates have been described:
Ag2WO4.4NH3;
CuWO4.2NH3.H2O;
CuWO4.4NH3;
CuO.4WO3.6NH3.8H2O;
ZnWO4.4NH3.3H2O.

English delftware
Updated on Apr 01, 2018
English delftware is tin-glazed pottery made in the British Isles between about 1550 and the late 18th century. The main centres of production were London, Bristol and Liverpool with smaller centres at Wincanton, Glasgow and Dublin. English tin-glazed pottery was called "galleyware" and its makers "gallypotters" until the early 18th century; it was given the name delftware after the tin-glazed pottery from the Netherlands, which it often copied, but "delftware" is not usually capitalized.
The nature of English delftware
Early wares
Blue dash chargers
Later wares
Many everyday wares were made: tiles, mugs, drug jars, dishes, wine bottles, posset pots, salt pots, candlesticks, fuddling cups (that is, ale mugs joined in groups of three, four or five with connecting holes to confuse the drinker), puzzle jugs (similar to fuddling cups), barber's bowls, pill slabs, bleeding bowls, porringers and flower bricks. Humble undecorated items included chamberpots, colanders and small disposable ointment pots (gallipots), dispensed by apothecaries. Large decorative dishes, often called chargers, were popular, and included much of the most ambitious painting, often stretching the artists to the edge of their capabilities, and beyond.
English delftware pottery and its painted decoration is similar in many respects to that from Holland, but its peculiarly English quality has been commented upon: ". . . there is a relaxed tone and a sprightliness which is preserved throughout the history of English delftware; the overriding mood is provincial and naïve rather than urbane and sophisticated." Caiger-Smith describes its mood as "ingenuous, direct, sometimes eccentric"; and Garner talks of its "quite distinctive character". Its methods and techniques were simpler than those of its continental counterparts. English tin-glaze potters rarely used the transparent overglaze applied by the more sophisticated Dutch and Italian potters. The enamels so popular on the continent in the 18th century were used only for a short time at Liverpool, where the so-called Fazackerly wares were made.
An English delftware jug has been found in East Malling, Kent, with a silver mount hallmarked 1550, which is presumed to be the earliest date of manufacture. (Malling jugs may be seen in the London Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum.)
John Stow's Survey of London (1598) records the arrival in 1567 of two Antwerp potters, Jasper Andries and Jacob Jansen, in Norwich, where they made "Gally Paving Tiles, and vessels for Apothecaries and others, very artificially". In 1570 Jansen applied to Queen Elizabeth I for the sole right to practice "galleypotting" in London and soon set up a workshop at Aldgate to the east of the city. There were already other Flemish potters in London, two of them in Southwark recorded in 1571 as "painters of pottes".
The earliest known piece with an English inscription is a dish dated 1600 in the London Museum. It is painted in blue, purple, green, orange and yellow and depicts the Tower of London and Old London Bridge, surrounded by the words, "THE ROSE IS RED THE LEAVES ARE GRENE GOD SAVE ELIZABETH OUR QUEENE" and an Italianate border of masks and leaves. The rim is decorated with dashes of blue and can be considered the first in series of large decorated dishes so painted and called blue-dash chargers.
Blue-dash chargers
Blue-dash chargers, usually between about 25 and 35 cm in diameter with abstract, floral, religious, patriotic or topographical motifs, were produced in quantity by London and Bristol potters until the early 18th century. As they were kept for decoration on walls, dressers and side-tables, many have survived and they are well represented in museum collections. Their name comes from the slanting blue dashes round the rim, seen in both examples at the left.
One of the most popular decorations on the blue-dash charger was a representation of Adam and Eve with the serpent in the Garden of Eden, produced from the 1630s to the 1730s. "The challenge of rendering the anatomy of Adam and Eve was inescapable, and as the subject became more and more freely repeated by painters of less and less competence, most of the anatomy gave trouble, particularly Adam's abdominal muscles, which eventually became grotesque and could not be wholly covered by his fig-leaf." In later examples, "the images had declined to the level of coloured graffiti; Adam and Eve were cave dwellers, the Tree had become a mere cipher and only the serpent and the fruit proved simple enough to survive debasement."
Towards the end of the 17th changing taste led to the replacement of apothecary pots, tiles and large dishes by polite tablewares, delicate ornaments, punch bowls, teapots, cocoa pots and coffee-pots. The decoration became lighter and more informal. Changing taste was also reflected in chinoiserie decoration and greater use of a polychrome palette.
In Bristol and Lambeth from the mid-18th century there was much use of a technique imported from Italy, bianco sopra bianco (white-on-white). The object was covered in a tin-glaze tinted with a small amount of colouring oxide, with decoration over it in white tin-glaze.
The development of a very white earthenware by Wedgwood spelled the end of English delftware. Decoration could be applied to the bisque ware from printed transfers, white pottery could be produced with a clear lead-glaze, and the result was pottery lighter and more durable than tin-glazed ware. The north Staffordshire potteries also introduced new wares and industrial techniques that disadvantaged the delftware makers, and by the 19th century tin-glazed earthenware almost died out until its revival in the form of art pottery a hundred years later.
There are good examples of English delftware in the Victoria and Albert Museum, the British Museum, the Ashmolean Museum and the Fitzwilliam Museum.

Confirming the work of the Holy Spirit
Confirmation service: Deanery of Waterloo, April 2018, with Bishop Terry Dance
By Archbishop Linda Nicholls
One of the joys of episcopal ministry is presiding at the sacrament of confirmation.
Whether the confirmands are young or mature there is a profound joy in this moment when the promises of baptism are affirmed in the presence of a particular congregation and the bishop as a link with the whole Church through the ages. This confirmand – woman, man, boy or girl – proclaims their commitment to Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and commits to following the way of Christ, guided by the Holy Spirit.
I particularly love the opportunity to meet the candidates before the service and hear something of their life and journey. What joys and personal gifts and passions will God use through the life of this Christian? Their moment of commitment is significant!
I remember my own confirmation. At that time confirmation was expected by church and family when you reached 11 or 12 years of age. It was a requirement before being able to receive Holy Communion.
However what I most remember was the importance of this decision. Each candidate met with the parish priest and although he gently warned us that lightning would not likely strike us when the Bishop laid hands on our heads I remember the solemnity of the decision. Years later when evangelical friends would ask when I had accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour and wanted a time and date – I realized that, for me, that moment was my confirmation. It was the moment when I affirmed publicly the faith I had been taught and wanted to live.
Confirmation allows us the opportunity to dig deeper into our baptismal vows to ask what they mean in our lives today and how will we follow Christ in our daily life in whatever vocation to which we have been called.
During General Synod this past summer I had the joy of returning to the parish where I was confirmed on the day after I was elected Primate, remembering the commitment to God in my baptism now confirmed through the sign of the laying on of hands by the Bishop as a continuing lifelong commitment to serve as called by God.
Confirmation allows us the opportunity to dig deeper into our baptismal vows to ask what they mean in our lives today and how will we follow Christ in our daily life in whatever vocation to which we have been called. It is a moment of public witness of faith through the affirmation of baptismal vows. It is a moment of confirming with the outward sign of the laying on of hands, the inward continuing work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the confirmand and the link of that confirmand with the whole Church through the Bishop.
When the Church affirmed that baptism is the primary sacrament of initiation through which one enters the community to receive the Eucharist many people no longer saw the need of confirmation. Yet it is a sacrament, not required of any, but important in marking our baptismal journey. Whether confirmation is chosen as a teenager or a senior citizen it is a powerful sacrament of our identity and Christian call. It may take place at any time in life. For young people it marks one of the first adult decisions made about the continuing direction of their lives. For adults it may occur at a moment when faith has become a living reality in daily life or after a time away from God now needing public witness of return.
Some people, confirmed at a young age, discover a desire to make a public reaffirmation at a time of life transition or renewed understanding of faith or recommitment. Although the laying on of hands is a once-only sacrament that reaffirmation may take place in a public service of worship in the presence of the Bishop at any time in one's life. The full life of faith is especially seen in a service that includes baptism, confirmation and reaffirmation with young and old standing together in testimony to the rich variety in how God works in our lives!
It is my prayer that confirmation and reaffirmation will find renewed interest among the people of God. They are the gifts of our heritage as a sacramental church and are meant to be shared widely. I pray that every parish will engage in opportunities to deepen and renew faith with a service of public witness to that faith in confirmation or reaffirmation!

Five minutes with Colin Crouch: "We have to move onwards to a more substantive European democracy, which means stopping striking postures about a national sovereignty that does not exist"
Crouch, Colin and Brown, Stuart A. (2014) Five minutes with Colin Crouch: "We have to move onwards to a more substantive European democracy, which means stopping striking postures about a national sovereignty that does not exist". LSE European Politics and Policy (EUROPP) Blog (07 Aug 2014). Website.
Are we witnessing a transition toward a post-democratic society? In an interview with EUROPP's editor Stuart Brown, Colin Crouch discusses democracy within the EU, the use of direct democracy in states like the UK, and the role of non-political actors in strengthening pluralism and civil society through avenues such as social media.

Most experts agree the most common reason for business failure is not having enough cash, funding that launches your new business. Even if your small business starts out with adequate capital, failing to manage your finances properly can stifle growth and ultimately bankrupt your venture.
What are the most common financial mistakes your business may be making? Accounting professionals were asked what their clients' most common financial errors were, and here's their list of concerns.
Not having insight into the business's finances is the top mistake, cited by nearly 50 percent of accounting professionals. Speaking with the company's accountant only at tax time is number two. Finally, the third biggest error is failing to link financials to business goals.
Experts are often slow to give away free advise, but one thing they will tell is, don't just input your numbers and forget about them, use them to monitor your performance and assess whether you are reaching your business goals. "Looking at your company's financial performance regularly and use past financial statements to project forward revenue, expenses and cash flow. You can't manage what you don't measure.
Your accountant should be a vital part of the equation when making long-term decisions such as taking on partners or investors, planning for succession, getting ready to sell your business, etc. If you're only talking to your accountant once a year, you're selling your business short.
You should also use your financials to project and plan for the future. As a business owner, you need to be thinking about and planning for the future. If you're not looking five to 10 years ahead, be advised, your competition is.

Many injured as 2 BRT buses collide in Lagos
in Cover, National
Tessy Igomu
Less than a week after a bus belonging to the Bus Rapid Transport scheme (BRT) was hit by a truck, another two collided at Asolo Bus stop, Majidun River, along Ikorodu Road, Lagos.
The incident, which reportedly occurred at about 7.45 a.m recorded no fatality. However, an undisclosed number of passengers were said to have sustained varying degrees of injuries and were rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment.
The accident was blamed on the recklessness of two commercial cyclists (popularly known as Okada riders) plying the restricted BRT lane.
According to the Lagos State Traffic Management Agency (LASTMA), the accident led to heavy build-up of traffic around the area and it later spilled to adjoining roads, leaving passengers stranded.
The agency noted that concerted efforts were made to remove the vehicles from the road to ease traffic.
On Tuesday, August 27, 2019, a similar incident involving BRT buses had led to three fatalities, and also left several persons injured. The accident occured when a truck fully loaded with cement, skidded off the main carriageway and collided with the BRT bus.
