They manipulate the focus and intensity of human attention, controlling, at any given instant, of what we are aware and of what we are not. Illusion, both visual and cognitive, involve high-level functions such as attention, memory and causal inference. With all those tools at their disposal, well-practiced magicians make it virtually impossible to follow the physics of what is actually happening — leaving the impression that the only explanation for the events is magic. Dr. Shalom Kelman is a Neuro-Ophthalmologist, one of a rare breed of physicians in the U.S., approximately 450 in number, compared to 23,000 cardiologists, for example. Dr. Kelman is even “rarer” because he is also a magician. He will entertain his audience with his magic and will share some of his insights into the world of magic, vision, and the mind.

Instructor: Vernon Williams Philosophers have been discussing human consciousness for thousands of years. Scientists have only been discussing human consciousness for hundreds of years. From the philosophical point of view. we all believe that both you and I have a consciousness, but we have difficulty in explaining what human consciousness really is.

  • Loudon Park National Cemetery Lodge
    HISTORIC AMERICAN LANDSCAPES SURVEY LOUDON PARK NATIONAL CEMETERY, LODGE HALS No. MD-5-A Location: 3445 Frederick Avenue, Baltimore, (Independent City), Maryland. The coordinates for the Loudon Park National Cemetery, Lodge are 76.683404 W and 39.2722228 N, and they were obtained in August 2012 with, it is assumed, NAD 1983. There is no restriction on the release of the locational data to the public. Present Owner: National Cemetery Administration, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Prior to 1988, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs was known as the Veterans Administration. The Veterans Administration took over management of Loudon Park National Cemetery from the U.S. Army in 1973 (Public Law 93-43). Date: 1885-86. Builder/Contractor: William Roussey. Description: The lodge for Loudon Park retained the three-room, L-shaped plan developed for the Second Empire style lodges, however, it assumed a Victorian-era cottage aesthetic with cross gable roofs, overhanging eaves, decorative bargeboards and brackets, paired double-hung sash glazed with two-over-two lights and operable shutters on the exterior. The millwork inside plus the built-in cabinet and corner stair contributed to the overall cottage-like characteristics of the building. The principal elevation faces west toward the entrance drive. The building is two stories in height and was constructed of brick, complete with a water table. The chimneys were built of brick as well. Granite was used for the sills. Inside, the floors are wood, and the wood doors are paneled. In the mid-1920s electricity came to the lodge, and by the decade’s end, its heating system had been modernized as well.

Dryer teaches at Calvert High School in Prince Frederick, Maryland. Spotlight: Loudon Park National Cemetery Loudon Park National Cemetery, originally a military cemetery located within the private Loudon Park Cemetery, is located in southwest Baltimore, Md. It was one of the 14 original national cemeteries established under the National Cemetery Act of July 17, 1862. Most of the original interments came from Baltimore hospitals, as well as the Relay House and Elkridge Landing. The Relay House was a popular hotel for B&O passengers in the 19th century. Nearby, Fort McHenry served as a prison camp for Confederate soldiers and Southern sympathizers during the Civil War. Although death rates at Fort McHenry were lower than at other Union prison facilities, a number of Confederate soldiers died while imprisoned there and they were buried at Loudon Park National Cemetery.
