UMaine News Press Releases from Word Press XML export 2015 UMaine Offshore Wind Project Cited as One of Press Herald’s Top Business Stories of 2014 02 Jan 2015 The University of Maine’s offshore wind efforts were mentioned in the Portland Press Herald article, “Top 10 Maine business stories of 2014.” In May, the University of Maine’s offshore wind project was selected as an alternate by the U.S. Department of Energy for its next phase of the Advanced Technology Demonstration Program. The UMaine project received $3 million for further research and development, and will be considered for more funding should additional funds become available. WABI Reports on New Year’s Eve Family Event at UMMA 02 Jan 2015 WABI (Channel 5) advanced the family-friendly activities offered at the University of Maine Museum of Art as part of Bangor’s Downtown Countdown New Year’s Eve celebration. The museum offered a free workshop for children to make a crown or tiara. The museum’s education coordinator, Eva Wagner, said the event is a safe, family-friendly way to celebrate the New Year. Yarborough Speaks with Media About State’s Large Blueberry Crop 02 Jan 2015 David Yarborough, a blueberry specialist with University of Maine Cooperative Extension, spoke with news organizations, including The Ellsworth American, WLBZ (Channel 2) and the Bangor Daily News about the 2014 blueberry harvest. Yarborough said although the federal figures for the harvest won’t come out until the end of the month, the crop will exceed 100 million pounds, making it the second largest blueberry harvest in Maine’s history, according to the article. The largest wild blueberry crop was 110.6 million pounds in 2000, the article states. The Associated Press also reported on Yarborough's figures. The Boston Globe, Maine Public Broadcasting Network, Portland Press Herald and Daily Reporter carried the AP report. Mainebiz cited the Ellsworth American article. UMaine Investigating Source of Unauthorized Tweet, Media Report 05 Jan 2015 The Bangor Daily News and WABI (Channel 5) reported the University of Maine is investigating an offensive and unauthorized tweet that was posted using an official university Twitter account. The tweet has been deleted and security on the account has been updated. “There is no evidence that any of the systems at the University of Maine were compromised,” according to John Forker, chief information security officer for the University of Maine System. Sun Journal carried the BDN report. Milardo’s Research on Aunts, Uncles Cited in News-Press Parenting Column 05 Jan 2015 Research by Robert Milardo, a professor of family relations at the University of Maine, was cited in a News-Press parenting column about the important role aunts and uncles play in children’s lives. Milardo’s writings show aunts and uncles help parents care for their children, give parents breaks and lend advice to both children and adults, according to the article. “Not all nieces and nephews are close with uncles and aunts, but for some, their relationships are truly extraordinary — they fuse elements of parent-like obligations with friendship,” Milardo said. “When adult siblings have reasonably close relationships, without question everyone can benefit.” Dill Speaks with Sun Journal About Common Winter Pests 05 Jan 2015 James Dill, a pest management specialist with the University of Maine Cooperative Extension, spoke with the Sun Journal for an article about insects that are common in Maine during the winter. Dill spoke about several pests and how to cope with them, including snow fleas, western conifer seed bugs, northern house mosquitoes, winter moths and spiders and Asian lady beetles. “It used to be when I first started, people would say, ‘Oh, boy, it must be boring during the winter being an entomologist,’” Dill said. “With the things that have come in, and looking at pests and you name it, there’s truly not a slow time of year anymore.” Downtown Bangor Public Humanities Day to Feature Community Events Centered On Arts, Literature and History 05 Jan 2015 The University of Maine Humanities Center will host the third annual Downtown Bangor Public Humanities Day at various locations Jan. 24 with a kickoff event Jan. 23. Free events for participants of all ages will be offered at venues including the University of Maine Museum of Art (UMMA), Bangor Public Library and Maine Discovery Museum. This year’s Humanities Day is co–hosted by the Maine Folklife Center and UMMA. The Downtown Bangor Public Humanities Day began in 2013 to create a better forum for connecting UMaine faculty, staff and students with the general public in the region, according to UMHC director and UMaine history professor Liam Riordan. Local partners of the day are the Bangor Public Library and Maine Discovery Museum. Free bus service will be available from the UMaine campus to Bangor and is supported by the UMaine Office of Student Life. The events kick off 6 p.m. Friday, Jan. 23 with a humanities-themed PechaKucha presentation at Coe Space, 48 Columbia Street in Bangor. Speakers will include UMaine faculty and local cultural leaders. Refreshments will be provided and a $6 donation is suggested. Events on Saturday, Jan. 24 are: 11 a.m.–11:45 a.m. at Maine Discovery Museum — Bangor Children’s Choir performance Noon–12:45 p.m. at Bangor Public Library — Brown bag luncheon discussion of the “Future of the Book” with Michael Alpert of UMaine Press, Deb Rollins of Fogler Library, Joshua Bodwell of Maine Writers & Publishers Alliance, and Barbara McDade of the Bangor Public Library 1–2:45 p.m. at University of Maine Museum of Art — Exhibit tour led by George Kinghorn, UMMA’s director and curator, at 1 p.m. and artist lecture by Brenton Hamilton at 2 p.m. 3–3:45 p.m. at Bangor Public Library — “Philosophy Tea” and group discussion of Edith Cobb’s “The Ecology of Imagination in Childhood” with Kirsten Jacobson, an associate professor of philosophy at UMaine, and members of the club, Philosophy Across the Ages 4–4:45 p.m. at Bangor Public Library — Screening by David Weiss, founder of Northeast Historic Film, of “An Oral Historian’s Work,” the legacy of Edward "Sandy" Ives, and discussion of the Maine Folklife Center and Northeast Historic Film The UMHC has partnered with the Bangor Daily News on “My Maine Culture,” a project to celebrate Maine’s sense of place. In December, members of the public were invited to submit a digital postcard — an image or video with accompanying text — that captures participants’ Maine culture or what they love about the state. The BDN will publish highlights from the digital postcard collection before the Downtown Bangor Public Humanities Day to contribute to the day’s events, and BDN editor Erin Rhoda will share examples during the PechaKucha event Jan. 23. The Maine Folklife Center also may choose to preserve the digital postcards in its archives. The Downtown Bangor Public Humanities Day is one of several UMHC events planned for 2015. The UMaine Humanities Center, housed in UMaine’s College of Liberal Arts and Sciences since 2010, advances the teaching, research and public engagement of the arts and humanities to create richer collaboration among Maine residents. More about UMHC is online. For more information about the Downtown Bangor Public Humanities Day or to request a disability accommodation, contact Pauleena MacDougall, director of the Maine Folklife Center, at 581.1848 or [email protected], or visit the Facebook event page.

The student-run production takes place at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 23 in the Collins Center for the Arts. While on campus, Janes will teach a free master class on musical theater that is open to the public. University and area high school students will perform for and be coached by Janes at 3 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 22 in Minsky Recital Hall. Janes is currently on a national Broadway tour of “The Phantom of the Opera.” He is a Colchester, Vermont native who graduated from UMaine in 2004 with a bachelor’s degree in music education with concentrations in voice and trumpet.

  • Journalism, Truth and Healthy Communities
    Journalism, Truth and Healthy Communities Healthy people, healthy businesses, healthy governments — healthy communities — are all best informed and engaged by independent community journalists who examine school budgets, expose scandals, question practices and politics, scrutinize environmental practices, who champion good and who dare to challenge fear and falsehoods. The work we do in our newsrooms enhances community life, it exposes mental and social health care problems and brings solutions forward, it relentlessly exposes overspending in our governments, and highlights the great people who live and work all around us. Communities are healthier, more engaged, more resilient and better able to thrive when informed by truth.

  • How to Construct a Concrete Canoe Construction Report 2011
    How to construct a concrete canoe Construction Report 2011 Enschede, May 2011 BetonBrouwers Study Association ConcepT School of Civil Engineering - University of Twente Preface Preceding on what is coming we want to outline the amount of work that has been shifted by the BetonBrouwers1 and everyone that bears a warm heart towards BetonBrouwen. The concrete canoe challenges in Eindhoven (NL) and Magdeburg (DU) are approaching rapidly, meaning that a year of hard work has passed. And how.... Based on our experiences from seasons 2007 & 2008 a new design and a lightweight concrete mixture were developed for season 2009. With an in theory very competitive concrete canoe, we participated in the Dutch and German competition. Luckily it turned out that it was not only a very competitive canoe in theory but also on the water. Season 2009 became the biggest success in the history of the BetonBrouwers. By dominating the Dutch competition and by winning the men’s race in Germany the BetonBrouwers became ‘European Champion’! In 2010 we dominated the Dutch competition again with the same successful design, but with a new concrete mixture. Since the German competition only takes place once in two years, it’s this year that we can defend our title of the men’s race. Because our neighbours will be very keen on getting the challenge cup back to Germany, it meant that we had to develop even better canoes. As in fact this year’s goal was to improve the design. Already in an early stage we found not much could be improved, but only optimised.

In this ground-breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and their music. In the period 1900–1940, over sixty operettas were produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of these stage works is important for the light they shine on a variety of social topics of the period – from modernity and gender relations to new technology and new media – and these are investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at doi.org/10.1017/9781108614306. derek b. scott is Professor of Critical Musicology at the University of Leeds.

  • Disability and Music
    th nd 19 November to 22 December UKDHM 2018 will focus on Disability and Music. We want to explore the links between the experience of disablement in a world where the barriers faced by people with impairments can be overwhelming. Yet the creative impulse, urge for self expression and the need to connect to our fellow human beings often ‘trumps’ the oppression we as disabled people have faced, do face and will face in the future. Each culture and sub-culture creates identity and defines itself by its music. ‘Music is the language of the soul. To express ourselves we have to be vibrating, radiating human beings!’ Alasdair Fraser. Born in Salford in 1952, polio survivor Alan Holdsworth goes by the stage name ‘Johnny Crescendo’. His music addresses civil rights, disability pride and social injustices, making him a crucial voice of the movement and one of the best-loved performers on the disability arts circuit. In 1990 and 1992, Alan co- organised Block Telethon, a high-profile media and community campaign which culminated in the demise of the televised fundraiser. His albums included Easy Money, Pride and Not Dead Yet, all of which celebrate disabled identity and critique disabling barriers and attitudes. He is best known for his song Choices and Rights, which became the anthem for the disabled people’s movement in Britain in the late 1980s and includes the powerful lyrics: Choices and Right That’s what we gotta fight for Choices and rights in our lives I don’t want your benefit I want dignity from where I sit I want choices and rights in our lives I don’t want you to speak for me I got my own autonomy I want choices and rights in our lives https://youtu.be/yU8344cQy5g?t=14 The polio virus attacked the nerves.

  • BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Dasar Pemikiran Bangsa Indonesia Sejak
    1 BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Dasar Pemikiran Bangsa Indonesia sejak dahulu sudah dikenal sebagai bangsa pelaut yang menguasai jalur-jalur perdagangan. Sebagai bangsa pelaut maka pengetahuan kita akan teknologi perkapalan Nusantara pun seharusnya kita ketahui. Catatan-catatan sejarah serta bukti-bukti tentang teknologi perkapalan Nusantara pada masa klasik memang sangatlah minim. Perkapalan Nusantara pada masa klasik, khususnya pada masa kerajaan Hindu-Buddha tidak meninggalkan bukti lukisan-lukisan bentuk kapalnya, berbeda dengan bangsa Eropa seperti Yunani dan Romawi yang bentuk kapal-kapal mereka banyak terdapat didalam lukisan yang menghiasi benda porselen. Penemuan bangkai-bangkai kapal yang berasal dari abad ini pun tidak bisa menggambarkan lebih lanjut bagaimana bentuk aslinya dikarenakan tidak ditemukan secara utuh, hanya sisa-sisanya saja. Sejak kedatangan bangsa Eropa ke Nusantara pada abad ke 16, bukti-bukti mengenai perkapalan yang dibuat dan digunakan di Nusantara mulai terbuka. Catatan-catatan para pelaut Eropa mengenai pertemuan mereka dengan kapal- kapal Nusantara, serta berbagai lukisan-lukisan kota-kota pelabuhan di Nusantara yang juga dibuat oleh orang-orang Eropa. Sejak abad ke-17, di Eropa berkembang seni lukis naturalistis, yang coba mereproduksi keadaan sesuatu obyek dengan senyata mungkin; gambar dan lukisan yang dihasilkannya membahas juga pemandangan-pemandangan kota, benteng, pelabuhan, bahkan pemandangan alam 2 di Asia, di mana di sana-sini terdapat pula gambar perahu-perahu Nusantara.1 Catatan-catatan Eropa ini pun memuat nama-nama dari kapal-kapal Nusantara ini, yang ternyata sebagian masih ada hingga sekarang. Dengan menggunakan cacatan-catatan serta lukisan-lukisan bangsa Eropa, dan membandingkan bentuk kapalnya dengan bukti-bukti kapal yang masih digunakan hingga sekarang, maka kita pun bisa memunculkan kembali bentuk- bentuk kapal Nusantara yang digunakan pada abad-abad 16 hingga 18.

  • CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION in the Period Immediately Following The
    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION In the period immediately following the close of the Civil War, philanthropic endeavors were undertaken to reconstruct secessionist states, establish wide-scale peace among still- hostile factions, and develop efforts to enact social, legal, and educational support. This philanthropic era is characterized by the activities of a number of individual, denominational, organizational, including state and federal supporters that were subsequently responsible for engendering a Negro College Movement, which established institutions for providing freed slaves, and later, Negroes with advanced educational degrees. This dissertation studied: the genesis, unfolding, contributions, and demise issues in conjunction with the social, economic, and political forces that shaped one such institution in Harper’s Ferry (Jefferson County), West Virginia: Storer College, which was founded in 1865 as an outgrowth of several mission schools. By an Act of Congress, in 1868, the founders of Storer College initially were granted temporary use of four government buildings from which to create their campus.1 Over the next 90 years, until its closure in 1955, the college underwent four distinct developmental phases: (a) Mission School [Elementary], (b) Secondary Division, (c) a Secondary Expansion, and (d) Collegiate. Even today—as a result of another Act of Congress—it continues to exist, albeit in altered form: in 1960, the National Park Service branch of the United States Department of the Interior was named the legal curator of the 1 United States.
