29 October 1987 Greenbelt News Review 6rttnbtlt Greenbelters Praise Finnish Version of the Planned City by Alexander Barnes I think Tapiola is the most beautiful community I have ever seen. Dews Reuiew Tapiola is a world renowned planned community about five miles west of Helsinki, Finland. It was discussed at the AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER fnternational conference on planned communities held at Volume 50, Number 50 P.O. Box 68, Greenbelt, Maryland 20770 Thur., Oct. 29, 1987 the Hilton last May; so Sandra, my wife and chairman of that conference, and I had some anticipation of what we were to see. We had already seen a few slides depicting Council Catches Up With Current Issues scenes of the city. However, even the best pictures of the community were inadequate to convey the joy which by Diane Oberg permits are issued.

Han var med å starte legende-bandet Pink Floyd, og er det eneste medlemmet av bandet som var med på alle gruppens utgivelser, samt alle deres live-opptredener. I mai måned i år debuterte han og hans nye band, Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets, med fire konserter i London (Camden Dingwalls 20.mai og The Half Moon in Putney 21., 23. og 24.mai) til en utrolig sterk mottakelse. Unattended Luggageer en videre feiring av Nick Mason sitt ubeskrivelig signifikante bidrag til musikken, og inneholder: Nick Mason’s Fictitious Sports- Masons solo-debut ble første gang utgitt i 1981 hvor han samarbeidet med en rekke artister som bl.a. Robert Wyatt og Carla Bley. Profiles – Dette var et samarbeid med 10cc gitaristen Rick Fenn, og var Masons andre solo-album. Det ble utgitt I 1985 som MASON + FENN. Dette er for det meste et instrumental-album, bortsett fra låtene "Lie for a Lie", hvor Maggie Reilly legger på vokal sammen med Pink Floyd kamerat David Gilmour og "Israel", som blir fremført av UFO keyboardist Danny Peyronel.

  • Introduction 1 Situating the Controlled Body 2 Bondage and Discipline, Dominance and Submission, and Sadomasochism (BDSM) At
    Notes Introduction 1. In many respects, Blaine’s London feat is part of that shift. Whereas his entombment in ice in New York in 2000 prompted a media focus on his pun- ishing preparations (see Anonymous 2000, 17; Gordon 2000a, 11 and 2000b, 17), his time in the box brought much ridicule and various attempts to make the experience more intense, for instance a man beating a drum to deprive Blaine of sleep and a ‘flash mob’ tormenting him with hamburgers. 2. For some artists, pain is fundamental to the performance, but Franko B uses local anaesthetic, as he considers the end effect more important than the pain. 3. BDSM is regarded by many as less pejorative than sadomasochism; others choose S&M, S/M and SM. Throughout the book I retain each author’s appel- lation but see them fitting into the overarching concept of BDSM. 4. Within the BDSM scene there are specific distinctions and pairings of tops/ bottoms, Doms/subs and Masters/slaves, with increasing levels of control of the latter in each pairing by the former; for instance, a bottom will be the ‘receiver’ or takes the ‘passive’ part in a scene, whilst a sub will surrender control of part of their life to their Dominant. For the purposes of this book, I use the terms top and bottom (except when citing opinions of others) to suggest the respec- tive positions as I am mostly referring to broader notions of control. 5. Stressing its performative qualities, the term ‘scene’ is frequently used for the engagement in actual BDSM acts; others choose the term ‘play’, which as well as stressing its separation from the real has the advantage of indicating it is governed by predetermined rules.

  • SIGNS My First Paranormal Experience—So Far As I
    SIGNS My first paranormal experience—so far as I had been aware--happened a few hours after the death of our little white west highland terrier Duffy on 2 April 2011. At only 10 years Duffy was in the prime of life, but on Fools Day he got sick from some abnormality. I was sitting with him, reassuring him and fully expecting him to recover. He looked unafraid and even happy with his ears upright and an apparent smile on his face when he passed so imperceptibly that it took me a moment to realize in horror that he was gone. He was such an adorable little companion, white with black eyes and nose and a tail that streamed like a banner when he ran. We felt like we had lost a child. Judy gave me a lock of his white fur in a small tin container with a sentimental Victorian picture on it of baby angels embracing. The round container is about an inch in diameter with a ridge protruding around it where the halves snap together. I sat catatonic in our family room holding the container in my lap, staring at his empty dog bed a few feet away--where I sat when he died. Before he took to this bed for the last time he went around the house visiting his favorite places. When he sprawled out on his pile of toys as if to embrace them all, stuffed animals squeaked. Finally I set the container down on the coffee table in front of me, got up and went out to the kitchen.

  • The Aestheticization of Violence in Donald Cammell's White of the Eye Steven Jay Schneider, Harvard University / New York University, USA
    Killing in Style: The Aestheticization of Violence in Donald Cammell's White of the Eye Steven Jay Schneider, Harvard University / New York University, USA "Everything in this world has two handles. Murder, for instance, may be laid hold of by its moral handle… and that, I confess, is its weak side; or it may also be treated aesthetically, as the Germans call it - that is, in relation to good taste." Thomas De Quincey (1890: 13) "If any human act evokes the aesthetic experience of the sublime, certainly it is the act of murder. And if murder can be experienced aesthetically, the murderer can in turn be regarded as a kind of artist - a performance artist or anti-artist whose specialty is not creation but destruction." Joel Black (1991: 14) "Donald looked upon violence as an artist might look on paint. What are its components? What's its nature? Its glamour?" James Fox (Matthews, 1996: 4) Introduction: Death Imitates Art APRIL 24, 1996. 9:45PM. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA. Local police receive word that sixty-two year old British filmmaker Donald Cammell has shot himself in the head with a handgun. "Because the shot went through his forehead rather than through the roof of his mouth," reported Tom Dewe Matthews in The Guardian one week later, "he lived for another forty-five minutes" (1996: 4). According to Cammell's widow, China Kong, who was with him at the time of his death, the writer-director had been studying the art of suicide for some time, reading about where you should aim the bullet in order to obtain not just a painless death, but a pleasurable one (Macdonald, 1998: 9).

    SIMULTANEOUS CONTROLLED RELEASE OF MULTIPLE COMFORT MOLECULES AND THE PRODUCTION OF NOVEL HIGH COMFORT CONTACT LENS MATERIALS THROUGH BIPHASIC MOLECULAR IMPRINTING by Charles J. White, Jr. A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctorate Of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama December 13, 2014 Keywords - Molecular Imprinting, Silicone Hydrogel Contact Lens, Comfort Agents, Extended Drug Delivery, Physiological Flow, Controlled Release Rate Copyright 2014 by Charles J. White, Jr. Approved by Mark E. Byrne, Daniel F. & Josephine Breeden Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering Christopher B. Roberts, Dean of the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering Yoon Y. Lee, Uthlaut Family Professor of Chemical Engineering Sabit Adanur, Professor Of Polymer And Fiber Engineering ABSTRACT Contact lens induced dry eye (CLIDE) affects approximately 80% of contact lens wearers. Extrapolating to the world wide population of 300 million contact lens wearers, there are approximately 200 million wearers who express dissatisfaction with their current lenses. The design of contact lenses have evolved to promote high oxygen diffusion (Dk) to promote comfort and ocular health. Since the advent of silicone hydrogel lenses in the market in the later 1990’s, silicone hydrogel lenses have dominated the lens market in recent years, making up 60% of all lens fittings in the United States in 2009. Several brands are approved for 30 day continuous, extended wear, making these lenses very popular with consumers. The most popular modalities of wear in the current and near future for lens wearers within the US market are extended and daily disposable wear lenses.
