  • A Summative History
    CHAPTER 1 “A MUSEUM HERE FOUNDED” A Summative History Chip Colwell-Chanthaphonh, Museum Origins, 1897−1910 Kristine A. Haglund, In 1893 the city of Chicago hosted the World’s Columbian Exposi- Richard K. Stucky, and tion, a celebration inspired by the 400th anniversary of Columbus’s arrival Pamela Wineman in the Americas. The fair attracted global attention and inspired a generation to rethink architecture, science, industry, the arts, and city planning. Even the severe economic depression that started that year would not dampen the enthusiasm awakened by the exposition’s displays, performances, buildings, and demonstrations. Spurred in part by the exposition, Denver’s most prominent citizens visited Edwin Carter in his mountain home in Breck- enridge, Colorado (Fig. 1.1). Headed by Governor John L. Routt, the Denver entourage knew Carter held a magnificent collection of Colorado wildlife. Carter (Fig. 1.2) had come to Colorado during the 1859 Pikes Peak gold rush and had had modest success. He retired several years later, settled in a tiny cabin in Breckenridge in 1868, and pursued his passion for natural history, particularly the study of birds and mammals. Carter was a wholehearted collector, as one historian has written: Edwin Carter found such joy in collecting that he too structured his life and work around it. The prospecting and tanning that filled his summers played second fiddle to the wintertime pleasures of tramping through the Figure 1.1. Edwin Carter’s cabin, woods, observing, tracking, and taking game. Breckenridge, Colorado. Accompanied by a burro and his dog, Bismark, who pulled a small sled with food and supplies, the tall, thin miner roamed the hills in snowshoes, watching the small movements of the birds in trees and the way the snow dropped from the branches 11 DENVER MUSEUM OF NATURE & SCIENCE ANNALS | No.

  • Film Reviews
    Page 117 FILM REVIEWS Year of the Remake: The Omen 666 and The Wicker Man Jenny McDonnell The current trend for remakes of 1970s horror movies continued throughout 2006, with the release on 6 June of John Moore’s The Omen 666 (a scene­for­scene reconstruction of Richard Donner’s 1976 The Omen) and the release on 1 September of Neil LaBute’s The Wicker Man (a re­imagining of Robin Hardy’s 1973 film of the same name). In addition, audiences were treated to remakes of The Hills Have Eyes, Black Christmas (due Christmas 2006) and When a Stranger Calls (a film that had previously been ‘remade’ as the opening sequence of Scream). Finally, there was Pulse, a remake of the Japanese film Kairo, and another addition to the body of remakes of non­English language horror films such as The Ring, The Grudge and Dark Water. Unsurprisingly, this slew of remakes has raised eyebrows and questions alike about Hollywood’s apparent inability to produce innovative material. As the remakes have mounted in recent years, from Planet of the Apes to King Kong, the cries have grown ever louder: Hollywood, it would appear, has run out of fresh ideas and has contributed to its ever­growing bank balance by quarrying the classics. Amid these accusations of Hollywood’s imaginative and moral bankruptcy to commercial ends in tampering with the films on which generations of cinephiles have been reared, it can prove difficult to keep a level head when viewing films like The Omen 666 and The Wicker Man.

SIMMONS, logging specialist NORTHEASTERN FOREST EXPERIMENT STATION FOREST SERVICE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE - - - WASHINGTON, D. C, 1951 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C. Price 75 cents Preface THOSE who want to be successful in any line of work or business must learn the tricks of the trade one way or another. For most occupations there is a wealth of published information that explains how the job can best be done without taking too many knocks in the hard school of experience. For logging, however, there has been no ade- quate source of information that could be understood and used by the man who actually does the work in the woods. This NORTHEASTERN LOGGERS' HANDBOOK brings to- gether what the young or inexperienced woodsman needs to know about the care and use of logging tools and about the best of the old and new devices and techniques for logging under the conditions existing in the northeastern part of the United States. Emphasis has been given to the matter of workers' safety because the accident rate in logging is much higher than it should be. Sections of the handbook have previously been circulated in a pre- liminary edition. Scores of suggestions have been made to the author by logging operators, equipment manufacturers, and professional forest- ers.
