It takes mucho cojones—18 of them, apparently—to stage a giant, carnival-like festival for your first live appearance in a foreign country, and that's exactly what SLIPKNOT did in December of 2015 when they held the seventh Knotfest in Toluca, Mexico (about an hour's drive west of Mexico City). The band's performance was captured on the just-released "Day Of The Gusano" , but instead of being advertised as a live DVD or concert film, "Gusano" (Spanish for "maggot", a word long ago appropriated by the band to describe its fans) has been described as a "documentary". Don't be misled, however, for around four-fifths of its 90-minute running time, "Gusano" , which was screened in select theaters around the world, shows SLIPKNOT performing a 16-song set before an enormous, passionate crowd. (For reasons unknown, the DVD and Blu-ray editions rearrange the track listing from the audio-only release. That version showcases the group's complete 17-song set in the same order in which it was performed, and omits "People = Shit" .) The remaining quarter-hour or so primarily features snippets of interviews with unmasked band members and a handful of unidentified Mexican fans, with both camps attempting to portray the group's arrival in town as a Really.

  • The Pennsylvania State University Schreyer Honors College
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE COLLEGES OF ENGINEERING AND THE LIBERAL ARTS LIVING WALLS: VARIETIES, BENEFITS AND GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION ALYCE DILAURO Spring 2010 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Public Relations with honors in Science, Technology, and Society Reviewed and approved* by the following: Laura Guertin Associate Professor of Earth Sciences Thesis Supervisor and Honors Adviser Andrew Lau Associate Professor of Engineering Design Thesis Reader * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT Today, “going green” has become a salient issue in the United States and across the globe. One of the green initiatives growing in popularity is the practice of green construction. Commercial, educational, and government buildings have increased their use of sustainable construction materials and environmentally-friendly designs with the addition of green roofs and living walls. Green roofs either partially or completely cover the roof of a building with vegetation for environmental and economic benefits. Living walls are similar to the design, construction and function of green roofs, yet these walls exist indoors or outdoors as a vertical arrangement of plants. One example of a living wall is an indoor herb wall constructed by Penn State. In Penn State’s entry to the 2009 Solar Decathlon competition, the Natural Fusion house contains planter boxes with herbs used for cooking that hang in the kitchen on boards of horizontal poplar. This indoor living herb wall receives sunlight from three skylights and water from the house occupants. Despite the green construction efforts in the United States, living walls are more popular and common in Europe than the rest of the globe.

  • Classroom Laptops Re-Examined
    The Mosaic A PUBLICATION OF THE HUGH N. BOYD JOURNALISM DIVERSITY WORKSHOP AT MONMOUTH UNIVERSITY IN WEST LONG BRANCH, NJ JULY 27, 2007 Classroom How moved are we? laptops re-examined BY SHARON KIM STAFF WRITER In the fall of 2006, school districts, such as Bergen County Academies in Hackensack, installed laptops in classrooms to facilitate learning and to motivate students. At first, this seemed like a brilliant idea to school administrations: paperless classrooms, instant information and the convenience of cut-and-paste. Brian Kwee, a senior at Bergen County Academies, said, “I think that laptops are useful tools in our school. With these laptops, students can save time with their research.” Because of these advantages, the Pascack Valley High School District launched “1:1 Laptop eLearning Initiative,” a program that gave faculty and students wireless laptops. This four-year project was implemented Marta Paczkowska/Staff Photographer in 2004 to change the way teachers teach A handkerchief is draped over a concert goer’s head at the Live Earth concenrt held at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ on July 7. and students learn.

    ANNUAL REPORT SEP 2019 - OCT 2020 INDEX INTRODUCTION INDEX OF EVENTS COMPLETED EVENTS DETAIL COMPLETED LIVE STREAM DETAIL COVID AFFECTED EVENTS DETAIL INDEX OF UPCOMING EVENTS NON PROFIT CULTURAL PARTNERS MAINTENANCE AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS REPORT FINANCIAL REPORT MARKETING REPORT COVID HANDBOOK To City Manager Jimmy Morales, The 19/20 season can be viewed as two distinct segments. The first six months represent major improvements and growth, followed by the sudden public closure and responses to the Covid health crisis. The year began with the renewal of the Rhythm Foundation’s management agreement. Experience and momentum gathered during the first management term were brought to bear and a season of widely diverse cultural offerings was undertaken. Long awaited capital improvements of the canopy covering and new seating system were completed in February. The season was in the middle of the busiest period in mid March when we closed the facility to the public in mid March due to the Covid health crisis. We immediately modified and adapted our operations using live streaming technologies to complete the Rhythm Foundations’s 32nd season. Emergency funding and support from the City, County and Federal government have been critical to sustaining the organization through this prolonged health crisis. We proactively engaged with community partners to identify funding, tech support and best practices for safe operations. Since going virtual in mid-March, we’ve broadcast sixteen (16) full length concerts as live streams to a collective audience of over 100,000 viewers from all over the world. The 20/21 season ahead is anchored by partnerships with the leading cultural presenting organizations in the South Florida, furthering our goal of establishing the North Beach Bandshell as a major performing arts facility in our region.
