  • Meteorite Shower in Park Forest, Illinois
    PSRD:: Meteorite Shower in Park Forest, Illinois http://www.psrd.hawaii.edu/Aug04/ParkForest.html posted August 26, 2004 Meteorite Shower in Park Forest, Illinois --- An L5 chondrite strewnfield is centered at Park Forest, Illinois, a southern suburb of Chicago. Written by Linda M. V. Martel Hawai'i Institute of Geophysics and Planetology Steven Simon (University of Chicago) and seven colleagues from the University of Chicago, the Planetary Studies Foundation, Harper College, Pacific Northwest National Lab, and the Field Museum in Chicago have classified the meteorite fragments that fell on Chicago's southern suburbs on the night of March 26, 2003. Described as ".. the most densely populated region to be hit by a meteorite shower in modern times," the village of Park Forest is at the center of the strewnfield and fortuitously also happens to be home to the Simon family, who answered scores of phone calls from neighboring meteorite finders. No injuries were reported though plenty of roofs, windows, walls, and cars were hit, and the police department took individual fusion-crusted fragments into custody as evidence (see picture above). Its chemical and mineralogical compositions establish the Park Forest meteorite as an L5 chondrite, one of the most primitive groups of known meteorites. It is a strongly shocked monomict breccia (a term applied to a breccia made of one kind of rock) with light-colored clasts in a very dark matrix. The team measured cosmic radionuclides in Park Forest and found nearly zero 56Co and high 60Co, values that indicate a large preatmospheric mass. They estimate the meteoroid was at least 900 kilograms and possibly as large as 7000 kilograms before it broke apart in the atmosphere, of which only about 30 kilograms of fragments have been recovered.

  • Summary of Surrendered and Sequestered Companies
    2011 PERFORMANCE SUMMARY OF SURRENDERED AND SEQUESTERED COMPANIES A. Background The Presidential Commission on Good Government (PCGG) was established in 1986 by virtue of Executive Order No.1 with the primary mandate of recovering the ill-gotten wealth of former President Ferdinand E. Marcos, his family and associates. In pursuit of this mandate, corporations belonging or beneficially owned by the Marcoses and their cronies were placed under sequestration. Certain corporations were also surrendered through compromise agreements. B. Role of PCGG Corollary to its primary mandate, the PCGG is charged with the preservation of the assets of sequestered corporations pending final judgment by the courts of their ownership and surrendered corporations pending their disposition. For this purpose, the Commission installed nominee-directors either through a directive from the Office of the President or in line with Executive Order No. 42 (which expired on 31 December 2011) and other applicable laws and jurisprudence. The nominee-directors are chosen based on their business experience and industry expertise to ensure that the companies are judiciously managed and the corporate assets are preserved, if not enhanced. C. Companies As of 2011, surrendered and sequestered corporations (and their subsidiaries, if any) are under PCGG’s supervision are as follows: Industry Company Banking 1. United Coconut Planters Bank (UCPB) Broadcast 2. Intercontinental Broadcasting Corporation (IBC-13) Clinical Research 3. Chemfields, Inc. Insurance 4. United Coconut Planters Life Assurance Corporation (Cocolife) 5. UCPB General Insurance, Inc. (Cocogen) Manufacturing/Refining 6. CIIF Oil Mills Group (CIIF OMG) Microfinance 7.
