Rita Levi-Montalcini Dies at 103
7 January 2013. SRF notes the passing of Nobel-prize winning neuroscientist Rita Levi-Montalcini on 30 December 2012 in Rome, Italy. She was 103. Her work in discovering nerve growth factor (NGF) gave neuroscience its first example of a diffusible, growth-promoting molecule, opening a window onto basic principles of nervous system development.
Rita Levi-Montalcini, elegant doyenne of neuroscience.
NGF itself is not directly linked to schizophrenia, but faulty brain development may be, and the field that grew up around neurotrophic factors illuminated how fledgling neurons find and connect to their eventual targets. The assortment of other growth-promoting molecules discovered after NGF also suggests strategies for redirecting miswired neural connections. Indeed, some research suggests that schizophrenia and other psychiatric illnesses may involve disrupted brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) signaling (Autry et al., 2012).
Nerve fibers radiate out from an isolated ganglion immersed in an NGF-containing medium.
Born in 1909, Levi-Montalcini attended medical school in Turin, Italy, then began work as a research assistant in neurobiology. World War II interrupted her research when Jews were forbidden to work in universities in Italy. Renowned for her dedication, Levi-Montalcini continued her experiments on chick embryos in a makeshift laboratory in her bedroom. After the war, she went to the United States to work with Viktor Hamburger at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, where she remained for 26 years researching the question of how neurons found and connected to their targets. In 1986, Levi-Montalcini and Stanley Cohen shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for the discovery of NGF. She eventually returned to Italy to found the European Brain Research Institute (EBRI) in Rome in 2002. Though she did not marry or have children, she mentored countless young scientists.Michele Solis.

There are either too many possible answers, or good answers would be too long for this format. Please add details to narrow the answer set or to isolate an issue that can be answered in a few paragraphs.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
As with many things in scripture, the first thing to do is zoom out and grab some context.
First, Paul is talking about the circumcision party of the Jews and how they are making the grace of God meaningless by their adherence to the old law. You can see that in the previous sentence he is using hyperbole to make a point, so it makes sense to take this phrase as well in that tone.
Second, the greek word εκπιπτω (ekpipto) which here is translated as "to fall away" is also used in the phrase "to run aground" (as in a ship at sea) (Acts 27:26) or "lose your balance" (2 Peter 3:17). The idea is that you are falling away from the vertical line you once held, not that you are being severed from something.
This is just a cursory examination of this particular verse and it's context. The arguments for and against the preservation of salvation are many and varied.
For a more in depth answer, I recommend wikipedia: Perseverance of the Saints
The problem is what does "keep the Law" mean. Luther says, in his Commentary on Galatians :
The passage says those who fall from grace have put faith in their own goodness or works either to be saved, or to stay saved.
First to understand Grace.
Notice he said "to fulfill them".
Now the evils and lawbreaking of revenge, God has reserved for himself.
For under the time of the law it is said:
For those under grace it is said:
So since God finds glory in fulfilling the law. There is even more reason to fear him. For in the days when the completion of the law was given as a responsibility to man, men then did fail when Gods word is perfect, he had to step in to finish the balance.
Since his satisfaction then is determined by his effort in fulfilling the law, and he has decided to fulfill all of it instead of abolishing it.
The Son in seeing his father is given glory by doing that of the work of the father.
Therefore in trusting the righteous judgement of the Father, the Son walked allowing the offense to occur without compensating the law. Knowing full well the Father's love for him.
In Psychology we have learned the it is "the decision to fix the threatening behavior that causes anger". Therefore by faith that God will fulfill the law, we no longer become angry, and our spirit becomes pure, in the same faith that the Son gave us as an example to follow.
So we fall from grace by attempting to fulfill the law.
For as soon as you try to fulfill the law you are in the "Image of the Father" and no longer in the "Image of the Son". For the decision to fulfill the law is no longer an expression of Faith in the Father, but instead an expression of self reliance. In self reliance pride manages to grow, yet in Faith humility remains clean from pride.
So know that when pride enters your heart, you oppose grace and are God's adversary. SO yes by a lack of faith you can fall from grace.

A recent profile in the New York Press placed singer/songwriter Will Stratton '09 in good company, likening music from his latest album, New Vanguard Blues, to "Nick Drake ... suddenly blessed with John Fahey's blues guitar picking skills."
Stratton, whose 2009 album No Wonder was made up of songs he wrote while at Bennington, released New Vanguard Blues this summer, and is already at work on a fourth album, he says.
Since graduating from Bennington, he told the independent newspaper that he still collaborates with some of his former classmates.
"Bands like Mountain Man and The Wailing Wall are bands that I play with a lot that are my friends," he said. "It can get weirdly cliquish, but we try not to think about ourselves as a scene too much because we play with a lot of different people."

I often play (and often win) the card-game Wizard with 3 players. I call somewhat aggressively and it works out well. Recently, I played with more players, and my strategy didn't work as well in ...

Miami Heat Tickets
It's a new day and a new season for the Miami Heat, who are set to return to prominence in the Eastern Conference in 2015-16. Perhaps the biggest move made during the offseason was the re-signing of 11-time All-Star Dwyane Wade, who has played his entire NBA career with Miami and may indeed retire in South Beach when it's all said and done. The Heat also acquired former Slam Dunk Champ Gerald Green and veteran big man Amar'e Stoudemire, plus they extended point guard Goran Dragic to ensure that their offense is ready to compete at a high level every night. With the impending return of Chris Bosh, it's certain that the Miami Heat will be back on the radar in a big way this season.

Fans of the Miami Heat are on edge as it looks like they are perfectly even with the Toronto Raptors.

There really is no way to tell who is going to come out on top, so get your tickets to catch these last few matches which will determine who has what it takes to go up against the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Conference Finals.

Their last game was played against the San Antonio Spurs, who are one of the best teams in the NBA right now and it showed.

2/3/16 - The Miami Heat has really been dominating the court lately. Unfortunately, when they took on the Houston Rockets on February 2nd, they ended up ending their winning streak. Regardless, they followed this loss up with a strong 93-90 victory against the Dallas Mavericks the next day, meaning they have won five of their last six games and brought their season record up to 28-22. The Heat is now 6th in the Eastern Conference. There are just two more home games before the Heat hits the road until February 20th.

1/27/16 - The Miami Heat broke their four game losing streak with a victory over the Bulls on January 25. They kept this momentum to also beat the Nets the next night. The Bucks led when the teams went in at halftime, but the Heat came out strong, outscoring the Bucks 26-10 in the third quarter. Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh tied for lead scorer with 27 points each. The two were on their game throughout the night, combining to score the final 12 points of the game to ensure their victory. They will look to add another win to their record when they play the Bucks on the 29. You can still get tickets for prices starting at $27.
1/20/16 - The Miami Heat unfortunately find themselves in the midst of a three game losing streak, thanks in part to several team injuries. So far this season, Chris Bosh is the only Miami player who has seen the court in every game so far this season. Dwayne Wade had to sit out due to shoulder soreness, and Hassan Whiteside strained his left oblique in the second quarter and left the game. Their bad luck continued when Luol Deng was poked in the eye with just two minutes left to play. Bosh led the team in scoring with 18 points. The Heat will look to break this unlucky streak when they play the Raptors on January 22. You can still get tickets for prices starting at $49.
1/13/16 - After beating the Suns on January 8, the Miami Heat lost their next three games in a row. Their latest loss came against the Clippers on January 13. The Heat led going into the half, but a lousy third quarter turned the tide of the game to the Clippers favor. Gerald Green was the lead scorer with 19 points, and Dwayne Wade added another 16.

The Heat will look to get back to winning when they play the Nuggets on the 15. You can still get tickets, for prices starting at $26.
1/6/16 - The Miami Heat have ended their short winning streak. Right on the heels of their impressive overtime win against the Indiana Pacers, which came to 100-103, the Heat takes a disappointing loss to the New York Knicks on January 6th.

Tickets for that matchup are available starting at $18.
12/30/15 - Although they've enjoyed a bounce-back season with Chris Bosh back in the lineup, the Miami Heat are going to end 2015 on a losing note. They fell 99-90 to Memphis on the road in their final contest of the calendar year and will look to Dallas on New Year's Day for redemption. Dwyane Wade's squad enjoyed a rivalry with the Mavs in the early 2000s, as each team took turns bringing home the Larry O'Brien Trophy prior to the rise of LeBron James and the return of the San Antonio Spurs. The Heat head to Washington on Jan. 3rd to face John Wall and the Wizards—get your tickets today from just $19!
12/24/15 - The Miami Heat are coming off of a 116-109 win against the Trail Blazers on December 20.

12/16/15 - The Miami Heat is officially done with their series of away matches and fans will be thrilled to learn that they faired admirably. The Heat travelled to Atlanta and Brooklyn to face the Hawks and the Nets, but the Heat were able to beat them both back. As they return to their home court in Miami, they are boasting a three game winning streak. From here, they should be able to relax a little, and hopefully add to their streak. They welcome the Toronto Raptors first, so be sure to get your tickets for the December 18th match. You can secure your spot in the stands for as little as $28.
12/9/15 - The Miami Heat beat the Cavaliers on December 5 for two wins in a row. Dwayne Wade and Tyler Johnson led the team with 19 points each, even with Wade sitting for the fourth quarter. LaBron James sat out for the Cavaliers, giving the Heat a bit of an edge of which they took complete advantage. The Heat led by 27 points at one point, but the Cavaliers battled back and the final score was 99-84.

The Heat head to Indiana to play the Pacers on December 11, and you can still get tickets for just $13.
12/2/15 - The Miami Heat hit their home court on November 30 to play against the Boston Celtics. Even though Boston was playing away, they were able to hook the lead early on in the first quarter and they didn't let it out of their grasp. Dwayne Wade and others tried their best to pull the team together to obtain the lead throughout the entire game, and there were times it was looking promising, but Avery Bradley from the Celtics kept his team in the lead with his outstanding offense and defense. See the Heat play live again on December 5 against the Eastern Conference leaders, the Cleveland Cavaliers. Tensions will be high since the Heat is Lebron James former team.
11/25/15 - The Miami Heat have only one game left in their run of seven home games. After beating the 76ers on Saturday, they still have only lost one game in this current series.

Then, the Heat had a 19-2 run to take the game. Fans have one more chance to catch them at home on the 23 when they play the Knicks before they head out to play the Pistons in Detroit on the 25. Tickets remain available to both games, staring at $29.
11/18/15 - The Miami Heat have been enjoying their long stint of home games during the month of November. They have played their last five games at home and have only lost one game to the Minnesota Timberwolves. The home game streak continues for two more games and then the Heat hit the road for a long stretch away from the American Airlines Arena.

With a record of 3-2, fans are hoping they stabilize a little and start racking up the wins. They have an excellent opportunity coming up. Starting on November 8th, the Heat will have seven consecutive home games, which is almost unheard of. This is also an excellent opportunity for the fans. With two full weeks of home games, this is sure to be an exciting time to be a Heats fan. Tickets for the first match, on November 8th start at $16.
10/28/15 - The Miami Heat started their season off strong with a 104-94 victory over the Charlotte Hornets. In the second quarter, the Heat had a 26-6 run that gave them the lead and helped them to take the win over the Hornets. It seemed as though the Hornets might get a chance to win after cutting a 20 point deficient to five, but Miami stayed strong and a 3-pointer from Luol Deng ensured the win. Chris Bosh returned after being sidelined since last February and had 21 points. Dwayne Wade had 20 points and Gerald Green had 19. The Heat head to Cleveland to play the Cavaliers on the 30th, and you can still get tickets with prices starting at $47.
10/21/15 - There is only one week left of preseason games in the NBA and all teams, including the Miami Heat, are starting to feel the pressure of regular season play quickly approaching. One thing that the Heat has worked on consistently throughout the offseason is creating good chemistry offensively. Being able to pull plays together and read each other is a huge component to having success on the court, and the Heat are working tirelessly to achieve such a comradery among their players. Watch the Heat live when they take on the Charlotte Hornets for their home game opener on October 28. Tickets are still available to purchase and start at $28 each.
10/12/15 - After losing their first two preseason games, the Miami Heat finally got a win when they played the San Antonio Spurs on October 12. Gerald Green was the high scorer for the Heat, scoring 17 points during the game. The Heat came back from behind after the Spurs were ahead 84-71 going into the fourth quarter. The starters of both teams took a chance to rest, and the Heat's young talent outscored that of the Spurs 26-10 to win the game. Hassan Whiteside remains out due to a strained right calf. The Heat head next to Orlando to play the Magic on October 13. You can still get your tickets, with prices as low as $12.
8/12/15 - The Miami Heat are still struggling to find themselves after LeBron James's departure two seasons ago. They finished a mere third in the Southeast Division with an overall record of just 37-45 in the 2014-2015 regular season. Fortunately, with the recent release of the official NBA 2015-2016 schedule, fans and players now have a fresh start to look forward to. The Heat will face the Charlotte Hornets in their home opener game on Wednesday, October 28. Next, they'll hit the road to take on LeBron James and his current team the Cleveland Cavaliers. It won't be an easy matchup, so come show the Heat your love while they're at home. Tickets to the kickoff game against the Charlotte Hornets start at as little as $30.
2014-2015 Season
4/23/15 - The 2015 season is officially over for the Miami Heat. In many ways it was disappointing, but they played their best, and good things are still to come. First things first, missing their spot at the playoffs means they kept their first-round pick for the next season. Despite losing more often than fans would have liked, they did come incredibly close to the postseason. An early spot in the draft could easily put them over the edge for the 2016 playoffs. More importantly, however, Chris Bosh is back. Being out due to complications in his lungs, it was looking like his career could be over forever. Thankfully, Bosh is coming back next year, and reportedly, he's better than ever. So do not give up hope on the Miami Heat, because 2016 could be their year.
4/13/15 - For the past month, the Miami Heat has been desperately hanging onto the possibility of slipping into the playoffs. It was a long shot, but they have officially lost their chance at the final slot for the postseason. To make it in, they needed to win their final game of the season against the Philadelphia 76ers, and both the Indiana Pacers and Brooklyn Nets needed to lose all their remaining games. With the Indiana Pacers taking a win over the Washington Wizards, the Heat's hopes ended. If they can still win on April 15th, however, they will be guaranteed a first-round pick next season. Otherwise, there is a 9% chance they will lose their first-round privileges. Even though they are not going to the playoffs, Miami played well this season and they have an opportunity to end the season strong.
4/10/15 - With just one week remaining in the regular season, the Miami Heat are trying to make every game count. They have had trouble on the court recently, but they just ended their short losing streak. Being one of only four remaining home games, the matchup against the Charlotte Hornets was a close game. The Heat took an early lead, but it was all tied up at the half. Miami played well from there and was able to edge out a narrow victory, scoring 105 to the Hornets' 100. There are now just three more home games and four matches total. If you still want to see the Heat in action, this week will be your last chance. Up next, they will be playing the Chicago Bulls on April 9th.
4/3/15 - Down to their last seven games of the regular season, the Miami Heat are grasping at the final playoff spot by threads. A pair of losses to a couple of the NBA's top teams has made the road tougher, but with the benefit of owning the tiebreaker over Boston, the Heat control their postseason destiny. Dwyane Wade suffered a mild injury on Thursday in the Heat's loss to Cleveland, slipping and collapsing to the floor awkwardly. To the relief of Heat fans, he is not expected to miss much time if any, and could be back in the lineup as soon as Saturday when his team faces the Detroit Pistons. Every possession of every game counts now—get in to the Palace of Auburn Hills to see Pistons vs. Heat starting at just $8!
3/24/15 - The Miami Heat managed to break their pattern and win all three of their home games last week. Since then, however, the Heat has been having less luck. They lost two consecutive games, against the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Milwaukee Bucks, and the Heat was unable to break 90 points in either match. Then Miami got a win against the Boston Celtics, but it was not their most impressive win. Their final score only came to 93, seven points ahead of their opponents. The Heat needs to practice a little more before the playoffs begin. Luckily, the majority of their remaining matches are home games. First they have back-to-back games against the Detroit Pistons and the San Antonio Spurs starting on March 29th. Tickets for those games start at $24 and $51 respectively.
3/17/15 - The Miami Heat is just starting a three-game series of home games. Both of the last two times the Heat had three consecutive games on their own court, they won two out of three. So far, things are looking up as Miami beat out the number two team for the Eastern Conference, the Cleveland Cavaliers, with 92-106. Before they leave again, they will also play the Portland Trailblazers and the Denver Nuggets. The Heat has a real chance to break their pattern and win all three. These last two games will be your last chance to see them in action before the end of March. Tickets for the Trailblazers game, on March 18th, start at $20 and the Nuggets game, on March 20th, starts at $23.
3/11/15 - Battling through a host of major injuries, the Miami Heat find themselves right at the edge of the Eastern Conference playoff field. They are tied with the Indiana Pacers in actual wins and losses, but currently rank just outside of the top eight by virtue of tiebreakers. The Heat picked up a crucial win in overtime on Saturday, rallying to steal a victory from the visiting Sacramento Kings. Dwyane Wade turned in a vintage performance, scoring 28 points on 10-18 shooting and 7-7 from the free throw line, while Michael Beasley chipped in 18 to go with seven rebounds. Miami will host the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday night in another game with playoff implications in the East—come out and support your team, with seats starting at just $10!
3/6/15 - Newly-acquired point guard Goran Dragic made no secret about his excitement at facing the Phoenix Suns, just two weeks after they executed a trade to send him to the Miami Heat. Limited by back spasms, Dragic played just 15 minutes, but scorched his former team to the tune of 21 points and four rebounds, helping lift Miami to a 115-98 victory. Rookie Tyler Johnson had an outstanding game as well, pouring in a career-high 26 points in as many minutes off the bench.

2/19/15 - The Miami Heat picked up Goran Dragic from the Phoenix Suns in a huge NBA trade this season. The Heat gets both Dragic brothers, and everyone is excited to see what these two can do for the team. With upcoming home games on Saturday (2/21) against the New Orleans Pelicans and Monday (2/23) versus the Philadelphia 76ers, the Heat will have a chance to see how the two fit into their lineup and help the team get out of the 8th overall standing in the Eastern Conference. Tickets for the Pelicans' game start at $49, and for the 76ers' game start at $25. Chris Bosh was just admitted to the hospital for tests on his lungs, so he may be out for a few games.
2/11/15 - Hassan Whiteside did all he could to push the Miami Heat ahead of the Cleveland Cavaliers in Wednesday's game. He was the top performer with 17 points and 14 rebounds, but the Cavaliers took the Heat with a final score of 93-113. Look for Dwayne Wade to return to the Heat's lineup when they come back from the All-Star break. Come out to the American Airlines Arena on Saturday (2/21) when the Heat host the New Orleans Pelicans. Tickets start at $39.

2/3/15 - The Miami Heat may not be having the season of their dreams, but you can't deny that they have some great talent to lead them through the end of the season. In a recent game against the Detroit Pistons, Miami just couldn't make up lost ground after Hassan Whiteside went to the bench. The Heat lost the game, 91-108, but Chris Bosh shot a perfect 9-9 in the third quarter, scoring 21 points for the Heat. Bosh continues to shine for the Heat. In their final home game before the break, the Heat host the New York Knicks on Monday (2/9). Get your tickets from Razorgator starting at $38 and cheer the team to victory. Don't miss out on any of the action when you enjoy a game in the arena.
1/29/15 - The Miami Heat made headlines this week, more for the appearances at a recent game by boxing superstars Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather, but there is no denying that Chris Bosh and his squad are starting to find their way as a team in the post-LeBron era. The Heat put up consecutive wins against Eastern Conference rivals Indiana and Chicago over the weekend, before suffering a 109-102 setback to the Milwaukee Bucks at home. Breakout center Hassan Whiteside had 16 points and 16 rebounds for Miami, who also got a combined 47 points from Bosh and Mario Chalmers. However, the Bucks shot nearly 55 percent from the floor, including 9-16 from downtown to secure the win. The Heat will look to bounce back on Friday night when they host the Dallas Mavericks, and great seats can be yours for as low as $49!
1/21/15 - According to Forbes, the Miami Heat have the best fans in the NBA. The Heat may not be having the season they hoped for, but their fans are loyal. With Hassan Whiteside on the sidelines for a few games, they may struggle even more. He injured his ankle in the game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Hopefully, he'll be back in the game by the game on Friday (1/23) against the Indiana Pacers. Even if he's not there, the Heat still have plenty of talent in Chris Anderson, Chris Bosh, and Dwyane Wade who kept the team alive in the Thunder game, but couldn't pull out the win. Catch the Heat in their game against the Pacers by purchasing your tickets from Razorgator at great prices.
1/12/15 - Coach Erik Spoelstra has had the unenviable task of adjusting to life without LeBron James this season, as the two-time champion Miami Heat have turned to Chris Bosh and veteran point guard Dwyane Wade to lead the way. The results have been mixed, but nearly halfway into the season, the Heat remain among the playoff contenders in the Eastern Conference, buoyed by their defense (fifth best in the East). In their Sunday road win, they held the high-scoring L.A. Clippers to just 90 points—16 below their season average. Miami will look to build on that win as they continue their West coast swing, with upcoming games versus Sacramento, the Los Angeles Lakers, and starting with the league-best Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night. A limited number of tickets are still available for Oracle Arena, starting at $52, but don't wait because they'll be gone soon!
1/5/15 - The Miami Heat snapped a four-game losing streak on Sunday, coming away with a victory over the Brooklyn Nets, 88-84. Hassan Whiteside had a big game for the Heat, grabbing a career-high 10 rebounds to go with 11 points and five blocked shots in just 27 minutes. Stars Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade combined for 51 points in the win, which elevated Miami to a record of 15-20 for the season, and kept them just ahead of the Indiana Pacers for eighth place in the Eastern Conference. The Heat will try for back-to-back victories when they travel to the Rose Garden to face off with the dangerous Portland Trail Blazers, led by the all-star duo of Damian Lillard and LaMarcus Aldridge. Razorgator is your ticket in the door, with a limited number of seats still available from just $27!
12/31/14 - After a big win on Christmas Day versus the Cleveland Cavaliers and former teammate LeBron James, the Miami Heat have dropped two straight at home to bring their record to 14-18 overall this season. The Heat defeated Cleveland convincingly in LeBron's first game back in Miami since his departure as a free agent, prevailing 101-91 behind 31 points from Dwyane Wade. Miami slipped up two nights later versus Western powerhouse Memphis, and then lost a nail-biter to the Orlando Magic, 102-101 on Monday night. The Heat will have a chance to close out the year with a win over an Eastern Conference rival, as they visit the Indiana Pacers at Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Wednesday night. Razorgator still has a limited number of tickets available starting at just $18, so come out and support your team!
12/25/14 - Looking to maintain their position among the top eight in the Eastern Conference, the Miami Heat will try for their second straight win on Tuesday when they host the Philadelphia 76ers. After five straight losses on their home floor, the Heat rebounded, defeating the Boston Celtics on Sunday, 100-84. Luol Deng led all scorers with 23 points, and Mario Chalmers added 11 to go with ten assists for Miami, who improved to 13-15 despite playing without all-stars Chris Bosh (left thigh strain) or Dwyane Wade (right knee bruise). Wade is due back into the lineup on Tuesday, and hopes to quickly reestablish his rhythm, as the Heat will host the Cleveland Cavaliers on Christmas Day in LeBron James' first game in Miami since returning to his home-state Cavs this season. Razorgator is your ticket in to AmericanAirlines Arena for this hotly anticipated showdown, with tickets from $89.
12/17/14 - Despite the game delay due to a leaky roof, the Miami Heat were able to defeat the Brooklyn Nets last week, keeping them ranked third out of the five teams in the Southeast Division standings. The 95-91 win was a close game for the Heat, but the team was able to pull it off, even without star LeBron James on the roster this season. Chris Bosh continues to put up big numbers each game, holding on to his spot as the team's scoring leader with an average 21.6 points per game. Bosh also leads in rebounds and blocks. Fans can purchase tickets for the Sunday, December 21 home game against the Boston Celtics. Tickets are available online starting at $27 each and make a perfect stocking stuffer for any basketball enthusiast.
12/9/14 - After dropping three consecutive games, the Miami Heat finally got a road win over a quality team. Chris Bosh poured in 34 points to help his team earn a victory over the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday, moving the Heat to a 10-11 record on the season. Luol Deng added 23 points on 9-12 shooting, as all five starters for Miami scored in double figures. The Suns committed 22 turnovers to leave the door open, and Bosh took over down the stretch, scoring 10 points in the fourth quarter to help Miami snap its losing streak and improve to 6-5 on the road. Next up for the Heat is a date with the Denver Nuggets at the Pepsi Center on Wednesday night, with seats still available from Razorgator starting at just $9!
12/3/14 - The Miami Heat scored another victory on Sunday when they took on the New York Knicks. It was a very low scoring game, but the Heat only scored less than their opponents in one of the four quarters. The final score came to 86-79. This win brings Miami to 9-7. They sit at 3rd for the Southeast Division, however they are only two win shy of the Washington Wizards in the number 1 slot. All season, the Miami Heat has been inconsistent with their wins and losses, usually alternating without establishing a streak of any kind. Hopefully they will be able to change that as they take on the Atlanta Hawks and then start a series of away games. Tickets for the Heat/Hawks game start at $17.
11/26/14 - The Miami Heat scored their second win in a row after an incredibly close game against the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday. After being ahead by 9 at the half, a dismal third quarter left them trailing by 5 going into the final quarter. This is when Miami brought an unstoppable offence to score 27 points over the Hornets' 21, bringing the final score to 94-93. This tense victory brings Miami to 8-6 and 2nd in their division. The Heat has been doing quite well this season, but they still have a long way to go if they want to catch up with the top team in their division, the Washington Wizards with 9-3. Be sure to follow the Heat as they take on that challenge starting with a home game against the Warriors on Tuesday. Tickets for $24.
11/19/14 - The Miami Heat will have some big games coming up this week against opponents from both conferences at American Airlines Arena. First up will be a game against the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday night. According to Razorgator, Miami Heat tickets against the Clippers have an average price of $141.99 with a get-in price of just $9. On Sunday, the Heat will take on the Charlotte Hornets for a game with an average price of $110.41, but a get-in price of $18.
11/17/14 - It was another disappointing loss for the Miami Heat on Friday, this being their second in a row. The final score against the Atlanta Hawks was 103-114. After trailing by 10 at the half, Miami started make a comeback in the third quarter, but ultimately fell just slightly short. This brings them to 5-4. It wasn't even two weeks ago that the Heat was in the top position of their division, but they currently sit in 3rd. They have a little battle ahead of them if they are to climb back to the top, but first they need to kick this losing streak. Be sure to catch them take on the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday to find out if they can turn it around. A few tickets are still available starting at $17.
11/14/14 - Following the departure of LeBron James for Cleveland, Miami Heat tickets still remain in high demand on the secondary market. The team still sees its secondary tickets exceed the $200 average for games at American Airlines Arena, according to Razorgator, making the Heat one of the most sought-after teams in the NBA. The Heat are 5-3 on the season and head to Atlanta to play the Hawks tonight. They'll wrap their week at home on Sunday when they host the Bucks.
11/12/14 - The Miami Heat is off to a very impressive start of the season, just winning their fifth game and second in a row. This 105-96 victory over the Dallas Mavericks puts Miami at 5-2. They were able to score more than Dallas in each of the first three quarters and a strong defense in the final period held their lead straight to the final buzzer. Luol Deng is still settling in as Heat's new No. 3, but he seems to have the hang of things as he scored a season high 30 on Sunday. As they head to face the Indiana Pacers on their home court on the 12th, Los Angeles finds themselves in the top position of the Southeast Division. Tickets are available starting at $15.
11/11/14 - The Miami Heat have gotten off to a solid start this season with a 5-2 record as the new big three Luol Deng, Chris Bosh, and Dwyane Wade combined for 70 points in their last outing, a 105-96 victory over a formidable Western Conference opponent the Dallas Mavericks. Miami Heat tickets have an average price of $113.51 for their next game this Wednesday as they host the Indiana Pacers at the American Airlines Arena, according to Razorgator. The Heat look for their fifth consecutive NBA Finals appearance.
11/5/14 - With LeBron James out of the picture, Chris Bosh has returned to the forefront of the Miami Heat, helping the team gain another win against the Toronto Raptors Sunday. The 107-102 victory places the Heat as the only unbeaten team in the Eastern Conference, securely at the top of the Southeast standings. Bosh had 21 points, four assists and 11 rebounds in Sunday's game and has taken over one of the starring roles on the team. Averaging over 25 points in the first three games of the season, Bosh just may be the player to watch this year. He will be back in action on Saturday when the Heat take on the Minnesota Timberwolves at the American Airlines Arena. Tickets can still be purchased starting at $27 each.
10/29/14 - The Miami Heat's 27th season opener is Wednesday, Oct. 29, against the Washington Wizards at the American Airlines Arena. During the first few preseason games, Dwayne Wade was a facilitator and worked his way through the offense. In the preseason game against the Houston Rockets on Oct. 21, Wade had his best performance yet. He scored his first six shots and shot in all 11-of-17 for 26 points. Wade made a nice block on Terrence Jones, got two rebounds, and had six assists. Troy Daniels scored with only 36 seconds left, winning the game at 88-83. Wade also had a good game against the Memphis Grizzlies three days later and finished with two assists, three rebounds and 16 points scored. Be sure to snag your tickets for Wednesday night's game. Tickets start at $29.
10/20/14 – Last year, the Miami Heat had the most expensive ticket in the NBA. Following LeBron's departure, Heat tickets are a little less sizzling. The average price to attend a regular season game in Miami is down to $203, seventh most expensive in the league but just $28 more than the NBA average. Today, the team announced that they have signed guard Larry Drew II, former UCLA Bruin and son of the Cavs assistant coach Larry Drew.
10/14/14 – LeBron took on his former team Saturday in an overtime thriller in Rio. The Heat will look to rebound from the preseason 122-119 loss Tuesday night at home where they'll take on the Atlanta Hawks at 7:30PM. Miami Heat tickets are just $5 and you'll get to catch Al Horford's return to the court. Miami recently cut Reggie Williams and Chris Johnson from the Heat roster and will have to cut three more players here shortly.
8/18/14 – The 2014-2015 Miami Heat schedule was revealed last week, and the 82-game slate looks just as intriguing as the team's new-look roster! With the departure of LeBron James in the offseason and a slew of acquisitions over summer, expect an exhilarating new offensive scheme, a new big three, and fresh faces on the court as well as in the stands. Miami opens up its 27th season with a visit from the Washington Wizards on Oct. 29. Watch the anticipated NBA Finals rematch when the Heat and Spurs faceoff in San Antonio on Feb 6 and at home on Mar. 11. Score seats to see playoff contenders like the Pacers visit South Beach on Dec. 14 and the OKC Thunder on Jan. 20. See Derrick Rose and reinvigorate the Heat-Bulls rivalry on Dec. 14 and Apr. 9. Get Miami Heat tickets on Christmas Day and give the fanatic in your life the gift they really want: seats to one of the most anticipated showdowns of the year. LeBron James and his new team will visit American Airlines Arena in the must-see Heat-Cavaliers Dec. 25 matchup. The move of one player can shift the entire outlook of a league, so it's hard to tell what this year will bring. Don't miss out on all the action in the Eastern Conference this season with Miami Heat tickets today!
The Miami Heat made NBA history when the team advanced to a fourth consecutive NBA Finals—though the 2013-2014 campaign was one for the ages, their bid for a three-peat was shot to the ground by the San Antonio Spurs. Eric Spoelstra's squad swept Charlotte, lost one to Brooklyn, and beat Indiana 4-2, before the worn-out Heat fizzled against San Antonio. Of course, none of that matters now, with a very different Miami Heat—and league—lining courts in the East this season. The shockwave jump heard 'round the world landed this summer when LeBron James spurned South Beach for a spot on his hometown roster in Cleveland.
The dust has yet to settle on the Miami Heat's bustling offseason, but the franchise is already toting a totally new-look roster. Chris Bosch and Dwayne Wade have opted to stay and welcome James' replacement and blockbuster free-agent acquisition, Luol Deng to South Beach—not a bad big three! Miami also landed solid players like Josh McRoberts and Danny Granger, not to mention the draft-night scoop of Shabazz Napier so far this summer. Who will be added to this perennial playoff powerhouse? Score Miami Heat tickets now and witness dawn of a new era for the South Beach franchise!

Saint Mary's College offers up to $13,000 in tuition-remission scholarships in Performance and Theatre Studies, and Technical Theatre and Design, to incoming freshmen. Awards are renewable for four years, and are merit-based for demonstrated artistic excellence. Scholarship auditions for students entering in Fall 2016 will be in January 2016. We will accept applications through January 2, 2016 or until all slots are filled. Students must apply to Saint Mary's College before the auditions in January. We recommend meeting the early-bird deadline for college application. Contact the Director of your program of interest for more information on how to audition for performance ensembles.
How to Prepare for the Audition
- Prepare two contrasting monologues, one modern/contemporary and one classical [e.g. Shakespeare, Greek, Moliere]. The two pieces may not exceed five minutes total, and should be age and type appropriate. The program should be fully memorized and rehearsed. You will also be asked to improvise in response to specific direction.
- Prepare a 90 second movement study. Choose from the following menu of topics:
- Choose a "daily routine" – some sequence of ordinary physical actions you perform about the same every day. Now, imagine that your environment has become gigantic, ala Alice in Wonderland. Try to complete your "routine" anyway, using these giant objects. Find new steps and solutions to achieve your goal.
- Think of an "impossible physical action" – something it would be humanly impossible to do. Now, believe that you really can accomplish this action. Really try. Keep finding new ways to solve the problem.
- You are a kid. One day, as you are a) setting the table or b) getting dressed or c) walking your dog, an "unreal" event occurs. The event is magical or truly terrifying, or both – and it takes you on "a journey." At the end, you manage to return to what you were doing.
Before the audition, practice your movement study. Focus on using your body fully, and connecting with the space around you. Keep your study silent, and avoid "mimed dialogue." We're looking for bold choices, strong commitment to an action, an expressive physicality and a clear connection between your imagination and your body.
Technicians, Designers, Directors
Please Note: Students awarded scholarships in this category will be expected to participate in any area of technical theatre, including lighting, sound, stagecraft and stage management, as deemed appropriate by faculty.
- Prepare a five-minute oral presentation describing your "behind the scenes" contribution to an actual production. Visual elements are helpful but not required.
- Interview with faculty.
- All applicants will be interviewed by the Performing Arts Department.
To maintain scholarship eligibility you must:
- Major or minor in theatre;
- Be a full time student;
- Pass all classes;
- Audition for a major production each semester; and
- Serve the production and department as a model citizen.
Apply for a scholarship here.
Please Note: Students awarded theatre scholarships are expected to audition for each major production. If not cast they will be expected to assist the production in other capacities.
For further information or to schedule an audition contact Rebecca Engle, Director of Theatre, (925) 631-4159, or email, [email protected].

At Equal Exchange we love coffee, we love beer, and guess what? We also love them together, so we were excited about the opportunity for our latest coffee and beer collaboration, brewed up in Portland, Ore. Our Portland crew teamed up with Harvester Brewing to offer a tasty new coffee beer featuring Equal Exchange beans. While lots of brewers are discovering the delicious ways that a little coffee can complement the dark, toasty malts that are the traditional staples in the brewing of dark winter beers, this brew is a little different.

Tea grown at the ashram.
Among the small farmer groups working with PDS are the Adivasis (tribal people), an ashram, and a convent. Here we are learning about the tea grown by nuns at the convent, and their very impressive organic composting practices.
At the ashram where in addition to their spiritual practices, they grow tea, fabricate organic compost, and raise cows to generate income and provide the local community with dairy products.

Are there any other cars that have the same type of key lock for a 1990 Pontiac Grand Prix LE? (2-door) I'm having a hard time finding a used one.
The little door/flap on the key mechanizm is broken or has come loose and I can't lock/unlock it anymore. (I have to open the passengers side, hit the unlock switch & then get in on the drives side again.) I would like to replace it with another lock.
(Also, how do I replace this part?)
Thanks in advance, Matt

Risk seems null when Raul Silva is isolated in a glass cage:
But Silva nevertheless manages to break into the MI6 computer system at that moment. How?
- His prosthesis hides a tongue-controlled computer that connects wirelessly to his laptop
- He had programmed everything in advance (sounds impossible: MI6 just moved, so infrastructure has probably still changed a lot since his arrest)
- He is helped by his team (improbable: The movie seem to imply that only Q and Silva are hackers)
- Other?

|Too Many tee | vintage shorts | 2 baia vista shoes | American Apparel clutch | Le Specs sunnies
A few shots of one very simple outfit I threw on the other day. I have literally had this tee for over
five years now and only just wore it for the first time here. Why the neglect, I do not know, as it
has the most perfect drape in the neckline and slightly pointed sleeves that have a fluttering effect
to them. Simple, but not too simple. Also whipped out the black suede American Apparel clutch I
picked up in Melbourne back in December. Looks a little like a pencil case, granted, but definitely
carries its own as a kind of everyday clutch. Great for when you simply cannot be bothered to haul
around a proper bag, but still want to look a little put together. An outfit derived entirely from
an old white tee and frayed denim, I would say, needs such a companion.

Bel Canto (Paperback)
Somewhere in South America, at the home of the country's vice president, a lavish birthday party is being held in honor of the powerful businessman Mr. Hosokawa. Roxanne Coss, opera's most revered soprano, has mesmerized the international guests with her singing. It is a perfect evening -- until a band of gunwielding terrorists takes the entire party hostage. But what begins as a panicked, life-threatening scenario slowly evolves into something quite different, a moment of great beauty, as terrorists and hostages forge unexpected bonds and people from different continents become compatriots, intimate friends, and lovers.

I need to create a simple IE addon, and trying to figure out how to do that in JavaScript. So far I saw a bunch of .NET examples on MSDN, and I've also seen the FireBreath project (which is kinda cool but it's in C++), but nothing in pure JavaScript.
Is there a way at all to make an extension for IE kinda the same way like we do it for FF/Chrome/Opera?
PS: I don't need any UI components, all I need is to track a page-load and alter a bit the HTML page, that's all.

I just got my butt handed to me after fighting a group of three monsters, all of which were pretty keen on beating up just one of the kids in my party. I didn't stand much of a chance after said kid was put out of commission, so I ran away, at which point the game informed me that I had been defeated.
The thing is, there didn't seem to be any adverse effect to my loss, as everything appeared just as it was before the battle. Am I missing something, or is there no downside to losing (other than my shattered pride)? Does it make a difference if you run away or are defeated completely?

Select your vehicle make, year, and model, to see a list of lift kits that fit your specific vehicle. Begin by choosing the make of your vehicle below.
Suspension lift kits are designed to lift your truck anywhere from 2 inches up to 6 inches. The increase in height will increase the amount of clearance you have from your fender which allows for larger tires.
Installing a Lift Kit can be a challenge. There are many ways to lift your truck, suv or jeep. What is included in a lift kit and how it lifts your vehicle will obviously depend on what type of suspension you currently have. Suspension lift kits often use arched leaf springs, taller coil springs, block lifts and add-a-leafs.
As todays trucks and SUV suspension become more complex, so do the lift kits. The best advice we have when considering purchasing a lift kit is to read through the lift kit instructions so you can see exactly what is involved when installing. Some kits can be done at home by someone with basic mechanical knowledge. Other lift kits may require a long weekend and someone who has logged some time under the hood. Another option that many people prefer is to have the kit professionally installed by a garage that has experience installing lift kits.
Most lift kits give you the option to purchase extended shocks but they are not required. Ex. Tuff Country lift kits that require taller shocks will show the option to buy them on our website, but they are not required as you may want to go with a set of Bilstein shocks for lifted trucks.
This is typically a concern for taller lift kits and is usually noted in the instructions or product comments. By raising your vehicle you may need a longer drive shaft to compensate for the lift.
This will vary considerably with the amount of lift and how the truck is lifted. The common change for all lift kits and trucks is that by raising the vehicle you are raising the center of gravity. Raising your trucks center of gravity will not allow it to turn the way it did without a lift. This is not a problem for most people, but something you always have to be aware of.
Many people raise their truck just to add larger tires. How large of tires you add and the tire tread will also have an impact on how your truck handles. So, if you want a lift kit just for looks, you have to remember that the truck will handle differently with the changes that you make. The increased sophistication in vehicle suspensions, such as Independent front suspension, has also changed how a vehicle with a lift kit will handle. If you are installing a suspension lift kit on a new vehicle many of them will maintain a ride very similar to the factory.
That typically is a matter of personal preference and what is available for your truck. How big of tires do you want? How much do I want to change my center of gravity? How much do I want to spend on a lift kit? These are all questions to ask. Last by not least, be sure to check your state laws for maximum lift size and tire size.

As the Office of Environmental Management (EM) fulfills its mission, waste and materials disposition plays a vital role in the cleanup of radioactive waste and the environmental legacy of nuclear weapons production and nuclear energy research.
Disposal of waste frequently falls on the critical path of cleanup projects. Significant planning resources are spent to identify alternatives and find a path that is cost-effective and in the best interest of the Federal government. In many instances, waste disposition, (processing, treatment and disposal) is part of cleanup agreements and is of interest to stakeholders and requires the oversight of regulators.
Below is a collection of databases and reports that provide information related to waste disposition. While most of these are directly related to the Department of Energy's (DOE) waste management activities, some links include information from the commercial sector.
The Central Internet Database (CID) site provides information about the implementation of the December 12, 1998 Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement Settlement Agreement between DOE and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC et. al. v. Richardson, No.97-936(SS)(AK)), which resulted in the development of the CID. The CID integrates waste management and cleanup data from multiple DOE data sources into a single database accessible through CID reports. CID information includes nationwide DOE data for Radioactive Waste, Contaminated Media, Spent Nuclear Fuel, and Facilities.
For DOE/EM waste and material stream data: Waste Information Management System (WIMS) provided by Florida International University - WIMS is developed to provide DOE Headquarters and site waste managers with the tools necessary to easily visualize, understand, and manage the vast volumes, categories, and problems of forecasted waste streams.
For commercial Low-Level Radioactive Waste disposal information, Manifest Information Management System (MIMS) - The Manifest Information Management System (MIMS) is a database used to monitor the management of commercial low-level radioactive waste (LLW) in the U.S. MIMS was developed in 1986 by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in response to provisions in 42 U.S.C. 2021g(a).
Brokers and processors data base sponsored by the Southeast Compact Commission - This directory is intended for use by compacts, states, federal agencies and others to provide information to generators seeking to treat, process and otherwise manage their waste in preparation for ultimate disposal.
International waste management data from the International Atomic Energy Agency Net-Enabled Waste Management Data Base (NEWMDB) - The NEWMDB contains information on national radioactive waste management programmes, radioactive waste inventories, radioactive waste disposal, relevant laws and regulations, waste management policies, and plans and activities.
12/2000 Low-Level Waste Disposal Capacity Report Version 2 - The purpose of this Report is to assess whether U.S. Department of Energy (DOE or the Department) disposal facilities have sufficient volumetric and radiological capacity to accommodate the low-level waste (LLW) and mixed low-level waste (MLLW) that the Department expects to dispose at these facilities.
Long-Term Management and Storage of Elemental Mercury - In addition to banning the export of elemental mercury from the United States as of January 1, 2013, the Mercury Export Ban Act of 2008 (MEBA) (Public Law No. 110-414) requires the Department of Energy (DOE) to establish a facility for the long-term management and storage of elemental mercury (generated with the U.S.). DOE used the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process to evaluate options considered in a January 2011 Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and a September 2013 Supplemental EIS.

It's time to dissolve Mingo Junction
January 6, 2013
To the editor: The financial plight facing Mingo Junction is profound and potentially insurmountable — which poses the threat of bankruptcy....
Love your comments. Thanks for slapping us in the face with reality. It is time for Mingo to dissolve as sad as it may be. More and more communities in the country will implement similar actions. On a national level, our president has let us down and his attack on factories and businesses will only continue for the next 4 years. The children that graduate from high school in Mingo, Steubenville and surrounding communities will only move away to seek a job or attend college. We don't make anything in this country any longer, the steel industry is dead. Thank you Mr. President for the destruction of our small towns. That will be your legacy...

I agree with the comments of both the person who wrote this letter, and with mingoman on the necessary solution for Mingo. I do, however, disagree with mingoman on one major point. This former W-P Mingo plant closed before Obama's watch. I'm not quite sure how mingoman can try and blame the closing of that plant on the current president and administration, when he wasn't even in office at the time of its closure. I guess this shows how blinded some people can become from partisan politics and watching too much Fox "News" and listening to to many right wing talking heads. It sets people up to make untrue statements, distort facts and it's just not healthy for our country in general.
While I don't necessarily agree with everything Obama has said and done, I also know what the facts are and blaming him for something that happened before he even took office is just wrong in many ways.

Obama's policies have assured that there will never be a revitalization of the steel industry in this country. He will give hundreds of millions to "green companies" but would never give a dime to help the steel industry. Steel built this country.

The export of jobs started in the 1980s mingoman. It didn't just start 4 years ago. The roots of the recession that began in 2008 lie solely with the investment bankers, who scammed the secondary mortgage markets.

Good letter, Mayor; it is unsustainable without a new source of revenue. Some are in denial and some of them have difficulty making decisions, unless it is in one of their many secret meetings. If they decide to even discuss doing the sensible thing, the public will be the last to know.

Good luck with Fire/EMS with a volunteer force. If you check there aren't enough volunteers in this county. I guess waiting for a Sheriff Deputy is an option but they could be on a bad call in Irondale or Bergholz. Shouldn't take them longer than an hour or so to get there. In case you haven't noticed the Sheriff's budget isn't what it should be either.

Obama ran in 2008 stating that he would reverse the policies of the Bush administration and would create more jobs. I remember Clinton saying the same thing when he ran. When Bush and Obuma got into office, they turned their backs on steel and forgot their promises. Bankers invest in this country, politicians take in this country.

Artist's first major museum project in North America includes presentations at Dia at Hispanic Society, Dia:Beacon, and The Dan Flavin Art Institute
Press preview November 3; opens to public November 5
New York, NY--Dia Art Foundation is pleased to announce Constellation Congress, a three-part exhibition of work by Koo Jeong A (b. 1967) that provides the first opportunity for American audiences to experience in depth the work of this important artist. For over twenty years, Koo Jeong A has been steadily and rigorously constructing a visual language of evocative riddles and playful environments that highlight the idiosyncrasies of the world around us.
Organized by Yasmil Raymond, Dia Art Foundation's curator, the exhibition comprises compelling, multifaceted projects in three locations: an immersive installation of newly commissioned works created for Dia at The Hispanic Society of America, in northern Manhattan; an outdoor sculpture at Dia:Beacon, in Beacon, New York; and a new series of works on paper at The Dan Flavin Art Institute, in Bridgehampton, New York. All three venues will open to the public on Friday, November 5, 2010, with the projects at The Hispanic Society and Dia:Beacon remaining on view through June 26, 2011, and that at The Dan Flavin Art Institute through September 4, 2011.
A press preview will be held at The Hispanic Society, on Broadway between 155th and 156th Streets, on Wednesday, November 3, 2010, from 9:30 to 11:30 am. Yasmil Raymond, and Philippe Vergne, director, Dia Art Foundation, will be present. For more information and to RSVP, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
Ms. Raymond states, "It has been a great honor for all of us at Dia to work with Koo Jeong A on the creation of this three-part exhibition. Constellation Congress is an unprecedented project in her career, in both scale and complexity, and the three different exhibition sites have literally become production sites, where new ideas have materialized over the course of the last five months. Dia is proud to facilitate this project, and to be a conduit for the ambitions of Koo Jeong A and other artists of our time."
In Koo Jeong A's work, nothing is ordinary; on the contrary, any object--be it a pile of charcoal, a piece of iron, or a puddle of water--is given dignity and reverence and incites the surprise of a first encounter. Her presentation for Dia at The Hispanic Society will be the fourth in Dia's multiyear series of projects by contemporary artists for the Society's Beaux-Arts buildings, in Washington Heights. Occupying the Society's East Building Gallery, Koo Jeong A's installation will comprise new multimedia works that were commissioned by Dia. These will include architectural interventions loosely evoking feng shui principles and an olfactory element developed in collaboration with perfumer Bruno Jovanovic, of International Flavors & Fragrances, Inc., among other diverse elements.
At Dia:Beacon, Koo Jeong A will present a new iteration of the outdoor sculpture A Reality Upgrade & End Alone (2003/2010), last seen at the 2009 Venice Biennale, consisting of approximately five thousand glittering stones installed in the two-acre field behind Dia:Beacon.
The exhibition at The Dan Flavin Art Institute will comprise new works on paper installed in the first-floor gallery. This presentation marks the first time in many years that the gallery has been used to display newly commissioned work, rather than selections from Dia's collection.
In conjunction with Constellation Congress, Dia will work with the artist to produce an original publication. Though Koo Jeong A has been making significant work over the past two decades, this will be the first study of her practice published in the United States. The volume will include a text by exhibition curator Yasmil Raymond and newly commissioned essays by art historian Molly Nesbit and Harvard University Professor of Astronomy Dimitar Sasselov, among others.
Koo Jeong A
Born in Korea, Koo Jeong A studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and has held residencies at the Aspen Art Museum and Artpace San Antonio. Her work is in the collections of the Centre Pompidou, Paris, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York City. Since 1994, her work has been shown internationally, including in solo presentations at Yvon Lambert Gallery, New York (2003 and 2010) and Yvon Lambert Gallery, Paris (1999, 2001, 2003, 2007, 2008, and 2009); Centre International d'Art et du Paysage, Ile de Vassivière, France (2007); Portikus, Frankfurt (2004); Secession, Vienna (2002); CCA Kitakyushu, Japan (2002); and the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris (1994). Group exhibitions have included those at the Aichi Triennale, Japan (2010); Venice Biennale (2009, 2000, and 1995); Performa05, New York (2005); Yokohama Triennial, Japan (2001); Manifesta 3, Slovenia (2000); Walker Art Center, Minneapolis (1998); Gwangju Biennial (1997); and Manifesta 1, Rotterdam (1996). The artist received the Hermès Korea Missulsang art prize in 2005, and in 2002 was a finalist for the Hugo Boss Prize. In 2004, she was invited, along with Urs Fischer, to create an inaugural, in situ installation of new works to launch the exhibition program at the Centre Pompidou's Espace 315 gallery. Koo Jeong A lives and works in London.
Special thanks to The Hispanic Society of America. Major exhibition support has been provided by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs and Councilmember Robert Jackson; and by Jill and Peter Kraus. Additional support has come from the New York State Council on the Arts, a State agency; agnès b. Endowment Fund; Etant donnés: The French-American Fund for Contemporary Art (a program of FACE); Sylvie Winckler; and the Korean Cultural Service. "Before the Rain" (2010) at the Hispanic Society was developed in collaboration with International Flavors & Fragrances, Inc.
Dia Art Foundation
A nonprofit institution founded in 1974, Dia Art Foundation is internationally renowned for enabling artists' visions by initiating, supporting, and preserving extraordinary art projects. Dia presents public and education programs, exhibitions, and its collection at Dia:Beacon, Riggio Galleries. Commissions and projects by contemporary artists, along with parallel education programs, are presented at The Hispanic Society of America, in Washington Heights, in a partnership that provides an interim venue for Dia's New York City–based programs while Dia develops a new site for these initiatives in Manhattan. Additionally, Dia maintains a number of long-term, site-specific projects. These include Walter De Maria's The New York Earth Room (1977) and The Broken Kilometer (1979), Max Neuhaus's Times Square (1977), Joseph Beuys's 7000 Eichen (7000 Oaks) (1988), and Dan Flavin's untitled (1996), in Manhattan; The Dan Flavin Art Institute, in Bridgehampton, New York; De Maria's Vertical Earth Kilometer (1977), in Kassel, Germany; and Robert Smithson's Spiral Jetty (1970) and De Maria's The Lightning Field (1977), in the Western United States.
The Hispanic Society of America
Founded in 1904, The Hispanic Society of America is dedicated to the presentation and study of Hispanic culture. The Society's collection, which is unparalleled outside of the Iberian Peninsula, provides deep insight into the culture and art of Spain, and also includes significant representation from Portugal and Latin America. Since 1908, the Society has been housed on Audubon Terrace, between 155 and 156 Streets in Manhattan, in a Beaux-Arts complex that includes buildings by architects Charles Pratt Huntington, Stanford White, and Cass Gilbert. Comprising both library and museum, the Society has a diverse collection of paintings, decorative arts, books, manuscripts, maps, prints, and photographs dating from the second millennium B.C. through the twentieth century, and is open to the public free of charge. For additional public information, visit www.hispanicsociety.org.
Koo Jeong A's exhibition is the fourth project presented by Dia at The Hispanic Society, a multiyear partnership in which Dia invites contemporary artists to create a new installation within the context of the Society's historical collection and buildings. Previous exhibitions include Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, chronotopes & dioramas (2009–2010), Zoe Leonard, Derrotero (2008–2009), and Francis Alÿs, Fabiola (2007–2008).
Dia:Beacon, Riggio Galleries, opened in May 2003 as the home for Dia Art Foundation's distinguished collection of art from the 1960s to the present. The museum features works by a focused group of some of the most significant artists of the last half century, including Bernd and Hilla Becher, Joseph Beuys, Louise Bourgeois, John Chamberlain, Walter De Maria, Dan Flavin, Michael Heizer, Donald Judd, On Kawara, Imi Knoebel, Sol LeWitt, Agnes Martin, Bruce Nauman, Max Neuhaus, Gerhard Richter, Robert Ryman, Fred Sandback, Richard Serra, Robert Smithson, Andy Warhol, and Lawrence Weiner.
Situated on the banks of the Hudson River in Beacon, New York, and easily accessible by train or car, the museum occupies a former Nabisco box-printing facility that Dia renovated with artist Robert Irwin and architect OpenOffice. Dia:Beacon's expansive galleries comprise 240,000 square feet of exhibition space illuminated by natural light. In addition to its collection, the museum presents temporary exhibitions and diverse public and education programs.
The Dan Flavin Art Institute
The Dan Flavin Art Institute is located in the former First Baptist Church of Bridgehampton. Originally constructed as a firehouse in 1908, the building operated as a church from 1924 to the mid-1970s. In 1979, Dia purchased it to use as a gallery for Dan Flavin (1933–1996), and renovated the building under the direction of the artist with the assistance of James Schaeufele, Dia's director of operations, and architect Richard Gluckman. The renovation evokes the building's former uses: a newel post in the entrance hall is painted red in honor of the building's years as a firehouse, and the original church doors have been moved to the entrance of a small exhibition space on the second floor that contains memorabilia, including a neon cross, collected from and about the church.
The first floor of the Flavin Institute is used for temporary exhibitions. Recent shows include Drawing American Light: Dan Flavin and the Hudson River School (2010); Imi Knoebel: Knife Cuts Parts 1 and 2 (2008–2010); John Chamberlain, Squeezed and Tied: Foam and Paper Sculptures (2007); and Fred Sandback Prints 1971–79 (2004–2006). In the stairwells and on the building's second floor, Flavin designed a permanent installation of nine works that trace his practice from 1963--when he decided to work solely with standard fluorescent fixtures and tubes--to 1981, when the presentation was realized.
