He was among the first to use reaction times for analyzing hemispheric specializations and interactions in intact and split brain humans. His latest research interests include visual spatial attention and the representation of the body in the brain.

My deepest roots lie in the ancient Lombard city of Pavia, where I was born 78 years ago, on May 25, 1935, and in that part of the province of Pavia that lies to the south of the Po River and is called the Oltrepò Pavese. The hilly part of the Oltrepò is covered with beautiful vineyards that according to archaeological and historical evidence have been used to produce good wines for millennia. -
Carroll Barnes (March 1–March 15) Carroll Barnes (1906–1997) Worked in Various Careers Before Turning His Attention to Sculpture Full Time at the Age of Thirty
1950 Sculpture in Wood and Stone by Carroll Barnes (March 1–March 15) Carroll Barnes (1906–1997) worked in various careers before turning his attention to sculpture full time at the age of thirty. His skills earned him a position as a professor of art at the University of Texas and commissions from many public and private institutions. His sculptures are created in various media, such as Lucite and steel. This exhibition of the California-based artist’s work presented thirty-seven of his sculptures. Barnes studied with Carl Milles (1875– 1955) at the Cranbrook Academy of Art. [File contents: exhibition flier] Color Compositions by June Wayne (March) June Wayne’s (1918–2011) work received publicity in an article by Jules Langsner, who praised her for developing techniques of drawing the viewer’s eye through imagery and producing a sense of movement in her subjects. Her more recent works (as presented in the show) were drawn from the dilemmas to be found in Franz Kafka’s works. [File contents: two articles, one more appropriate for a later show of 1953 in memoriam Director Donald Bear] Prints by Ralph Scharff (April) Sixteen pieces by Ralph Scharff (1922–1993) were exhibited in the Thayer Gallery. Some of the works included in this exhibition were Apocrypha, I Hate Birds, Walpurgisnacht, Winter 1940, Nine Cats, and Four Cows and Tree Oranges. Watercolors by James Couper Wright (April 3–April 15) Eighteen of James Couper Wright’s (1906–1969) watercolors were presented in this exhibition. Wright was born in Scotland, but made his home in Southern California for the previous eleven years. -

Kent Bingham's History with Disney
KENT BINGHAM’S HISTORY WITH DISNEY This history was started when a friend asked me a question regarding “An Abandoned Disney Park”: THE QUESTION From: pinpointnews [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2016 3:07 AM To: Kent Bingham Subject: Photographer Infiltrates Abandoned Disney Park - Coast to Coast AM http://www.coasttocoastam.com/pages/photographer-infiltrates-abandoned-disney-park Could the abandoned island become an OASIS PREVIEW CENTER??? NOTE I and several of my friends have wanted to complete the EPCOT vision as a city where people could live and work. We have been looking for opportunities to do this for the last 35 years, ever since we completed EPCOT at Disney World on October 1, 1983. We intend to do this in a small farming community patterned after the life that Walt and Roy experienced in Marceline, Missouri, where they lived from 1906-1910. They so loved their life in Marceline that it became the inspiration for Main Street in Disneyland. We will call our town an OASIS VILLAGE. It will become a showcase and a preview center for all of our OASIS TECHNOLOGIES. We are on the verge of doing this, but first we had to invent the OASIS MACHINE. You can learn all about it by looking at our website at www.oasis-system.com . There you will learn that the OM provides water and energy (at minimum cost) that will allow people to grow their own food. This machine is a real drought buster, and will be in demand all over the world. This will provide enough income for us to build our OVs in many locations. -

By this choice he also carried on his family tradition, which started with his great-grandfather, professor of general pathology in Parma during the 1840s [8], and continued with his uncle, col- laborator of Jean-Martin Charcot. In 1927 Moruzzi graduated magna cum laude from the University of Parma, which provided him with a stimu- lating environment and excellent teachers. Prominent among them was the neuroanatomist Antonio Pensa, pupil of Camillo Golgi. Moruzzi sometimes started to work at five o’clock in the morning, and, because of his dedication to work, he was given the key of the small lab with its very old instruments [8]. In 1930, as a third year student, he published his first paper, on the granular layer of the cerebellum [8]. When Pensa moved to Pavia, Moruzzi remained in Parma because he could not afford to stay away from home Giuseppe Moruzzi was born in Campagnola Emilia, a small and because he preferred neurophysiology to anatomy.

He grew up in Parma, where his Mario Camis, who familiarized him with the skills and the father was a general medical practitioner [2].

POPULARITY AND CLOUT So there is some yelling and shouting about the lack of diversity in the live-action races for a Little Gold Man, but the media notes with approval that animation has spread its nominations around. For true diversity at the Oscars, look at the animation nominees In the animated feature category, Academy voters rewarded as warm a use of CGI as you’ll see (Pixar’s “Inside Out”), Aardman’s always colorful stop-mo- tion (“Shaun the Sheep Movie”), stunning stop-motion puppetry (“Anomali- sa”), crayon-warm 2D with a live-action sequence (“Boy and the World”) and Studio Ghibli’s legendary hand-drawn beauty (“When Marnie Was There”). -http://839iat.se/1P9QiaL The thing to keep in mind: the Academy Awards are (generally speaking) a popular- ity contest and a demonstration of the leverage owned by our fine entertainment conglomerates. From the beginning of the AMPAS, artistic merit has been only one consideration among the commercial ones. And of course in the 21st century, tub-thumping for your nominees in the mainstream and social media also counts for a lot. It’s all about getting a Little Gold Man, so your entry can collect more gold on the back end of the award ceremony. - Steve Hulett IN THIS ISSUE: Popularity And Clout ............................................................................................... 1 CGMA Winter Term Flyer ...................................................................................... 3 MPI Needs To Know ................................................................................................ 4 2016 Contract Holidays ......................................................................................... 5 From The Biz Rep: The IATSE Executive Board ................................................ -
