  • Directory of Institutions in the United States and Canada with Pre-1600 Manuscript Holdings
    Directory of Institutions in the United States and Canada with Pre-1600 Manuscript Holdings The Directory of Institutions is the first part of a continuation of the Census of Medieval and Renaissance Manuscripts in the United States and Canada, published in 1935 and 1937, and its 1962 Supplement.1 The present Directory details, when known, the current location of the collections listed in the original Census and Supplement, and identifies an additional 281 North American repositories of pre-1600 European manuscripts in Western languages that were not included in the earlier works. For all of the 475 North American repositories, this Directory provides updated contact data and general information on pre-1600 manuscript holdings. Detailed descriptions of individual manuscripts are outside the scope of this Directory, but bibliographical references to published catalogues and internet addresses giving access to on-line cataloguing records are provided when available. Following the organizational scheme of the original Census and Supplement, the Directory entries are organized alphabetically by State and City, with public collections listed first for each city, followed by private. (Due to privacy issues, modern private collections are not included). As in the original publications, the Canadian Provinces are found in a separate listing at the end of the directory. We would like to thank the hundreds of individuals who have contributed to this updated directory through their gathering and sharing of information regarding the whereabouts of pre- 1600 manuscripts in North American collections. To keep this information current, we ask that any updates or corrections be reported to us at [email protected].

  • Report on Charitable Organizations in Mississippi Page 2
    Page 1 Report on Charitable Organizations in Mississippi Page 2 Dear Fellow Mississippians: Mississippi continues to be one of the top-ranked states in the country supporting charitable giving. The generosity of our citizens is known nationally, and time after time our citizens have risen to the occasion to help Mississippians in need, as well as our fellow citizens across the country. Informed charitable giving helps ensure your hard earned money, property and services are dedicated to advance the core charitable purpose or mission of the organizations you support. Disclosure of charitable revenue and spending exposes unscrupulous groups who might prey upon the generosity of our citizens by lining their pockets under the guise of selfless motives. Additionally, transparency in financial reporting promotes the good work of credible organizations who are responsible stewards of your financial contributions and other support. For these reasons we are pleased to announce that the Report on Charitable Organizations in Mississippi is now available on our web site. This publication will enable you to make informed decisions on your charitable giving by presenting the financial activity for the charity’s most recent fiscal year. The Council of Better Business Bureaus recommends that at least sixty-five percent (65%) of total expenses of a charitable organization should be spent on program activities directly related to the organization’s purposes. Fundraising costs by the organization should not exceed thirty-five percent (35%) of related contributions. However, there are some instances when a departure from these standards would be reasonable. For example, newly created organizations may have higher administrative expenses due to start-up costs; and, large gifts or donor restrictions on the use of contributed funds could skew an organization’s apparent management of funds in either a favorable or unfavorable light.

  • Gewerbebau Als Visitenkarte Des Unternehmens
    Moeding Keramikfassaden GmbH Ludwig-Girnghuber-Straße 1 84163 Marklkofen A coveted address MOEDING design in New York residential and commercial building Standing a good 125 metres tall, The Park Loggia is, by New York standards, a small but sophisticated high-rise residential and commercial building located between Columbus Circle and Lincoln Center. The slender residential tower rises above a six-storey podium with retail and commercial spaces, housing more than 160 apartments over 26 floors. Skidmore Owings & Merrill (SOM) designed the second building on this plot since 1965: like its predecessor, built for the American Bible Society, the new skyscraper clearly stands out from the lower topography of the surrounding buildings and offers sweeping views as far as Central Park and the Hudson River. At the beginning of the Gilded Age in the 1870s, New York City was on the cusp of a new era. There was no subway, just horse-drawn carriages, and the Upper West Side was farmland. In only a few decades, all this would change. Simple timbered and stone structures were increasingly replaced by cast iron buildings, the growing subway improved commutes to work from the suburbs, and modern apartments began to appear above the Upper West Side in Manhattan. The part of town between Columbus Circle and Cathedral Parkway, bordering Central Park to the east and Riverside Park to the west, has since grown rapidly and, with its elegant townhouses and historic apartment complexes is one of the city’s most popular areas – not just for the rich and famous. Today, premium residential buildings are still being built here.
