When Buying Your Wreath This Holiday Season, Choose One That Will Make a Difference in the Lives of People with Cancer When buying your wreath this holiday season, choose one that will make a difference in the lives of people with cancer. Hope is a powerful thing. Artie Mingo and his family, owners of Mingo’s Evergreen Products, experienced first-hand the challenges, heartbreaks, and celebrations of progress facing families caring for a very sick loved one. “My son was born with a severe blood disorder; hope is what kept our family going as he endured transfusions and other vital medical treatments.” Artie founded Wreaths For Hope, to raise vital funds for cancer research and to address the critical transportation needs for Downeast Mainers living with cancer. With every wreath purchase of $19.95, twenty percent of the proceeds will be donated to Maine Cancer Foundation to fight against Cancer in Maine. MCF is a major grant provider for Jackson Laboratory, a world leader in cancer research in Bar Harbor, Maine. An additional ten percent will be designated for transportation initiatives that will improve access to cancer treatment centers and hospitals. Why Wreaths For Hope are so special. Wreaths For Hope are made with freshly grown and sustainably harvested balsam fir. They are handcrafted into the unique ribbon shape, symbolizing the fight against cancer. The rich fragrance and deep green color lasts throughout the entire holiday season. Personalize your wreath with a ribbon color that represents a particular type of cancer, pink for breast cancer, for example — or choose a traditional red color to support the hemophilia community.

  • A 1 Case-PR/ }*Rciofft.;Is Report
    .A 1 case-PR/ }*rciofft.;is Report (a) This eruption site on Mauna Loa Volcano was the main source of the voluminous lavas that flowed two- thirds of the distance to the town of Hilo (20 km). In the interior of the lava fountains, the white-orange color indicates maximum temperatures of about 1120°C; deeper orange in both the fountains and flows reflects decreasing temperatures (<1100°C) at edges and the surface. (b) High winds swept the exposed ridges, and the filter cannister was changed in the shelter of a p^hoehoc (lava) ridge to protect the sample from gas contamination. (c) Because of the high temperatures and acid gases, special clothing and equipment was necessary to protect the eyes. nose, lungs, and skin. Safety features included military flight suits of nonflammable fabric, fuil-face respirators that are equipped with dual acidic gas filters (purple attachments), hard hats, heavy, thick-soled boots, and protective gloves. We used portable radios to keep in touch with the Hawaii Volcano Observatory, where the area's seismic activity was monitored continuously. (d) Spatter activity in the Pu'u O Vent during the January 1984 eruption of Kilauea Volcano. Magma visible in the circular conduit oscillated in a piston-like fashion; spatter was ejected to heights of 1 to 10 m. During this activity, we sampled gases continuously for 5 hours at the west edge. Cover photo: This aerial view of Kilauea Volcano was taken in April 1984 during overflights to collect gas samples from the plume. The bluish portion of the gas plume contained a far higher density of fine-grained scoria (ash).

  • DUNFORD Paul UMD Submission 08 Revision B
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: THE PERSISTENT POGONI AT THE VICTORY PARADE OF 1945: STALIN’S CHOICE TO COSTUME THE SOVIET PRESENT IN THE UNIFORMS OF THE IMPERIAL PAST Paul Dunford, Master of Arts, 2008 Thesis Directed by: Professor Catherine Schuler Department of Theatre The military uniform in which the Imperial Army of Tsar Nicholas II marched westwards toward its disastrous confrontation with that of his cousin Kaiser Wilhelm II was the culmination of three hundred years of dress reform on the part of the Romanovs. Each of the dynasty’s emperors and empresses imparted their own particular stylistic mark on the uniform; it in turn was symbolic of that ruler’s reign and communicated a complex package of political, cultural, and social messages. The uniform of 1914 was symbolic of the uneasy reign of Nicholas II and it was therefore a natural target for the Bolshevik revolutionaries who physically tore them apart. Yet when Stalin sent the Red Army west to meet Hitler’s Wehrmacht his soldiers were dressed in a uniform nearly identical to that which had been ravaged and reviled over two decades prior. By 1941 Stalin transformed the uniform of Imperial Russia into that of Soviet Russia, even though the political and cultural life of these two periods stood in stark contrast to each other in many ways. This highly successful transformation will be examined through application of an adaptation of the theories of stage semiotics.
