Dorothy Mabel Reed Mendenhall, born in Columbus, Ohio on September 22, 1874, was the second daughter and third and youngest child of Grace Kimball and William Pratt Reed and an important link in a long lineage of prominence and privilege. All four of Mendenhall's grandparents' families--the Kimballs, the Reeds, the Talcotts, and the Temples--traced their origins back to New England in the 1630s. Mendenhall was particularly proud of the fact that the Reed family could document its direct descendence from Thomas Dudley and Dorothy Yorke and their daughter, the poet, Anne Bradstreet, who came to Massachusetts Bay on the Arabella in 1632, and that her Talcott relatives were direct descendents of John Talcott. He had arrived had in Cambridge in 1632 and, in 1636, built the first house in Hartford, Connecticut. Her great-grandfather Richard Kimball surveyed parts of the Northwest Territory after the American Revolution and was paid for his services with grants of land. He, in turn, passed along forty acre plots of land in Cleveland, Canton, and Columbus, Ohio to his sons. By the mid-nineteenth century the Kimballs, were prominent figures in Ohio politics and society. Mendenhall's maternal grandfather, Hannibal Kimball, made his fortune in shoe and boot manufacturing. Her father William Reed joined Hannibal Kimball in his business in 1858 and, in 1867, married his eldest daughter. Mendenhall spent her early years living with her parents, her sister Elizabeth, her brother William Reed Jr., and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins on the Kimball estate on the East side of Columbus. When William Reed Sr. died from complications of diabetes and tuberculosis in 1880 he left an estate worth several hundred thousand dollars.
Mendenhall's early education consisted of tutoring by her grandmother at home, drawing classes at the Columbus Art School, and, in the late 1880s, private teaching by her governess Anna Gunning, in Columbus and, later, in Berlin. Her first formal education began in 1891 when she entered Smith College, where she earned her B.L. in 1895. During her last year of college Mendenhall's family began to experience serious financial troubles due to wreckless spending by her mother and brother, and her sister's chronic illness and bad marriage. From this time on she played a central role in the management of the family finances. It was in large part due to the need to earn money to support herself and her family that she decided to enter newly opened Johns Hopkins University Medical School (one of first to admit women) and pursue a medical career She spent a year at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1895-96 to complete required science courses and entered Johns Hopkins University Medical School in 1896 along with several other women students such as Florence Sabin and Gertrude Stein (who later dropped out). During summer of 1898 she and her classmate Margaret Long became the first women to work for a U.S. Naval Hospital when they assisted in treating Spanish/American War casualties at Brooklyn Navy Yard Hospital. Mendenhall excelled at Johns Hopkins and, after graduating fourth in her class in 1900, she was awarded a prestigious internship at Johns Hopkins Hospital, serving under Dr. William Osler. The next year she became a Pathology fellow there under the direction of Dr. William Welch. During this period Mendenhall taught bacteriology, assisted at autopsies and undertook research on Hodgkin's disease. She made her best recognized contribution to medical science when she discovered the cell that is a primary characteristic of Hodgkins disease and effectively disproved the common belief that the disease was a form of tuberculosis. Mendenhall's findings, published in 1902, brought her international acclaim and the cell became known as the Reed cell (also called the Sternberg-Reed and Reed-Sternberg cell).
During the years of her fellowship at Johns Hopkins, Mendenhall had a passionate and tumultuous relationship with another pathologist, Dr. William MacCallum. Despite his professions of love for her, MacCallum repeatedly pursued other women and his infidelities ultimately drove Mendenhall to break off the relationship. She later wrote that it was her desire to make a clean break with McCallum, more than the difficulties she faced as a woman in her field, that induced her to abandon pathology and to accept an interim residency at New York Infirmary for Women and Children. At the conclusion of that post Mendenhall made the decision to pursue pediatrics and, in January of 1903 she became the first resident physician at Babies Hospital in New York City. Later that year her sister Elizabeth died after a long struggle with tuberculosis and Dorothy, who had already been supporting her mother, also took on the financial responsibility for Elizabeth's three children, Dorothy, Hart, and Ordway Furbish, ages nine, seven and six.
Dorothy Mendenhall first met Charles Elwood Mendenhall, son of the well-known scientist Thomas Mendenhall and Susan Allen Mendenhall, in her youth when both lived in Columbus. The two maintained a friendship over the years and, when both were students at Johns Hopkins in the late 1890s, they frequently spent time hiking together in the Baltimore countryside. Charles carried a torch for Dorothy and proposed to her numerous times over the years. Finally, in 1904, after MacCallum came to New York to try to win her back, Dorothy decided to escape her difficult personal and professional situation by marrying Charles and creating a "normal home and family life" with him. After a tentative engagement Dorothy married Charles on Valentine's Day 1906 in her mother's old family home in Talcottville, New York. The two had an extended honeymoon in Europe and then returned to Madison, Wisconsin, where Charles taught physics at the University of Wisconsin. By this time Dorothy was already in the midst of her first pregnancy and she did not try to reestablish her career in Madison, planning instead to stay at home bearing and raising children. Her first child Margaret, born on Feb 19, 1907, died one day after her birth due to brain damage from her traumatic delivery, which also left Mendenhall suffering from pelvic injuries and puerperal sepsis. Her second child, Richard, survived his 1908 birth only to die before his second birthday from a fall off the roof of the family home in November of 1910. In between the births of Thomas, in 1910, and John, in 1913, Mendenhall's mother Grace Kimball Reed also died unexpectedly. Mendenhall's grief over these deaths complicated her already difficult transition from prominent professional woman to wife and mother, and exacerbated the problems of her disappointing marital relationship. During these years she was miserable and depressed.
Mendenhall began the second phase of her career in 1914 when she became a lecturer in the Department of Home Economics at the University of Wisconsin. Motivated by the circumstances of Margaret's birth and death and John's precarious nutritional status during infancy, Mendenhall devoted herself to the issues of maternal and infant health, particularly reducing infant mortality rates by providing prenatal care, and educating others about the importance of infant and early childhood nutrition. In addition to teaching, she also organized the first infant welfare clinic in the state in Madison in 1915. Her successes in this line of work--perhaps best exemplified by Madison's status as the U.S. city with the lowest infant mortality rate--ultimately lead her to other appointments including those in the extension schools of the University of Chicago and Utah State Agricultural College.
During WWI, when Charles Mendenhall went to work for the U.S. government in Washington D.C., Dorothy Mendenhall was recruited by the U.S. Children's Bureau. In her capacity as a medical officer with the Children's Bureau during the years from 1917 to 1936 she did comprehensive studies of war orphanages in Belgium and France, and nutritional studies of Children in England. She also worked on a nationwide drive to weigh and measure all children under six in order to call attention to the prevalence of malnutrition and develop norms for height and weight from birth through age six. Mendenhall wrote numerous influential publications on children's health care and nutrition and, in 1926, she visited Denmark to compare the infant and maternal mortality rates there with those in the U.S. During that visit she observed the successes of the Danish midwifery movement and became a proponent of childbirth without unnecessary medical interventions. This very successful second career renewed Mendenhall's sense of herself as a valuable successful professional woman. By the late 1910s the combination of motherhood and fulfilling work gave her a sense of purpose which made her marriage more satisfying as well.
As her children grew, Mendenhall managed her household and family much like she managed her career. She frequently reminded her sons that they were "her life's work" and emphasized their obligation to meet her very high expectations. Her early experiences with the difficult consequences of her family's squandered wealth caused her a great deal of anxiety about financial matters but also made her a shrewd investor. Despite her constant worries about spending money, however, she was never without a great deal of household help, including maids, nannies, and cooks, of whom she was also very demanding.
In 1934, when John was an undergraduate at Harvard and Tom a Ph.D. student in history at Yale, Charles Mendenhall was diagnosed with prostate cancer. After a difficult battle with the illness he died in Madison in August of 1935. Despite the apparent passionlessness of their marriage, the Mendenhalls had become loving companions over the years; Dorothy was clearly lonely after Charles's death. Nevertheless, she continued her professional work, took over sole management of the family's finances and investments, and became more demanding of her children than ever before. By the late 1930s she had already begun to refer to herself as an old woman with only a few years to live. Though she accused her sons of neglecting her in her old age, Tom and John, their wives Cornelia and Sally, and their children actually remained closely involved in her life. Mendenhall also maintained many long-time friendships, such as with her college friend Louisa Fast and, between 1936 and the 1950s, traveled frequently with friends to Mexico, Central America, California, North Carolina and other destinations. By the early 1960s her health began to fail and she was hospitalized repeatedly, though she continued to live independently through 1963. After nearly thirty years of predicting her immanent death Dorothy Reed Mendenhall died of arteriosclerotic heart disease in Chester, Connecticut on July 31, 1964 at the age of eighty-nine.

The Dorothy Reed Mendenhall Papers consist of 7.75 linear feet of material, dating from 1805 to 2003. The bulk of the papers date from 1890 to 1957 and focus on Mendenhall's personal and professional life. Types of materials include personal records, family records, personal and family correspondence, legal documents, lectures, sketches, and drawings, printed material, personal memorabilia, photographs, and published and unpublished writings.
Major subjects reflected in the collection are women's education, medical education, public health, and the status and role of women in the U.S. Organizations represented in the collection include the Johns Hopkins University Hospital, the United States Children's Bureau, the University of Wisconsin and the Visiting Nurse Association Child Health Centers of Madison, Wisconsin, and the Wisconsin Board of Health. The papers offer insight into the life of a privileged woman who, as one of the early graduates of the rigorous and professional medical education at Johns Hopkins Medical School, made pioneering contributions to the fields of pathology, public health, maternal infant health, pediatrics, and nutrition while also balancing the demands of her own home and family life. In addition to documenting Mendenhall's life and work the papers document major twentieth century historical trends including the changing roles of women and the penetration of scientific concepts into housekeeping, childrearing, and other aspects of daily life.
This collection is organized into five series:

This series includes a variety of material by and about Dorothy Reed Mendenhall that documents her personal and professional experiences, including both her accomplishments and her struggles. It is arranged in the following eight subseries: Writings about Mendenhall, Education, Professional credentials, Legal documents, Financial documents, Personal records, Memorabilia, and Photographs. The bulk of the material in this series dates from 1891-1950s. Writings about Mendenhall includes two short biographical sketches and three brief accounts of Mendenhall's life. Her own autobiographical writings, written between 1939 and 1955, give the fullest picture of the events of her life and her feelings about them. Personal records contains drawings and writings from Mendenhall's childhood as well as other diaries, records and lists she saved over the course of her life. Photographs contains rich visual documentation of her life from her childhood in the 1870s to her old age in the 1950s, of her family, and of her environments and friendships at Smith College and Johns Hopkins University Hospital.
1 linear ft.
This series contains family records, memorabilia, and third party correspondence written by and received by various members of Mendenhall's family (including extended family) between 1805 and 1938. It is arranged in three subseries: Genealogical material, Individuals, and Legal and financial records. Genealogical material consists of notes and family trees Mendenhall put together in the course of researching her background and especially her relationship to the Dudley and Bradstreet families of seventeenth century Boston. Individuals is arranged alphabetically with material about miscellaneous family members filed at the end of the subseries. Each person's file contains various types of material by or about them including biographical material, correspondence, and memorabilia. Among the richest material in this series are the letters, poems, and sketches that came from her maternal grandmother Adaline Talcott Kimball and her family. In addition to documenting Talcott and Kimball family history this material sheds considerable light on Adaline Talcott Kimball's experiences as a young white woman growing up in upstate New York, dealing with potential suitors, and wrestling with some of the various intellectual trends that swirled around the United States in the 1830s and 1840s. Legal and financial records contains material that documents the accumulation of wealth and status in the Talcott and Kimball families between 1811 and the 1930s.
2 linear ft.
This series contains personal and professional correspondence, dating from 1891 to 1962 and is organized into two subseries: Family and Friends and associates. Family consists of correspondence with members of Mendenhall's immediate and extended family dating from 1891 to 1962 and arranged alphabetically. Mendenhall's letters to her mother Grace Kimball Reed date from 1896 to 1911 and are a particularly rich source of information about her daily life and thoughts and struggles during her days as a student, her years as a medical intern and resident in Baltimore and New York, and her difficult life as a new wife and mother in Madison, Wisconsin. Mendenhall's letters to her son Thomas Corwin Mendenhall Jr. and his wife Cornelia Baker Mendenhall, especially those written between 1938 and 1962, are a similarly rich source of information about her retirement years and her old age. Friends and associates includes a small amount of general correspondence consisting of letters from friends and colleagues who were not regular correspondents dating from 1901-60, the bulk of which are sympathy letters Mendenhall received in 1935 after her husband's death. This subseries consists primarily of material from friends and colleagues who corresponded regularly with Mendenhall between 1891 and 1957. Significant signatories include Bryn Mawr College president M. Carey Thomas and Mendenhall's distant cousin, the writer Edmund Wilson.
1 linear ft.
This series documents Dorothy Mendenhall's professional life from her internship at Johns Hopkins University Medical School in 1900 to her work for public health in the 1950s. The material is arranged according to the institution that administered it. Because Mendenhall often worked for more than one employer at a time, the institutions are arranged alphabetically as follows: Babies Hospital, Johns Hopkins University, United States Children's Bureau, United States Naval Yard Hospital, University of Chicago, University of Wisconsin, and Utah State Agricultural College. Types of material include correspondence, minutes, newspaper clippings, notes, printed material, and reports. The bulk of the material in this series consists of lectures, notes, and syllabi and examinations from Mendenhall's appointments at the University of Chicago and the University of Wisconsin.
.5 linear ft.
This series contains material relating to Dorothy Reed Mendenhall's many publications in the areas of pathology, maternal-infant health, pediatrics, public health, and children's nutrition between 1901 and 1937. Final published versions of the articles and pamphlets she wrote are arranged chronologically. Each publication is arranged with relevant correspondence, drafts, drawings and photographs, and other related material.

Wear Levi's to a Modeling Casting
A denim jacket, like this Levi's® eco Trucker Jacket, is a good buy right now, or you might already have one stored in your closet, whip it out because denim lasts and it very trendy. The Low Skinny 531™ Jeans in Olga Grey look good, and also pairing a denim jacket with black tube dress is also very cute.

Thanksgiving is just around the corner. How can we NOT know? I go to Starbucks and the feature flavor is pumpkin spice latte. My cousin and favorite chef advertises on Facebook that she's making pumpkin pie from scratch and not the can. My co-workers bringing in the bite sized chocolate bars in preparation for Halloween. And what does this all mean? It's the start of festivities and food. Lots and lots of food. My mouth is already watering for turkey, cranberry sauce and sweet yam… followed by the pumpkin pie and vanilla ice cream. Mmmm….
The average weight a person gains between the months of October (Thanksgiving) to December (Christmas) is 7 pounds. How do I avoid that?
Physique morphing expert, Herve Duchemin obviously knows my woes. He's written articles like "Controlling Late Night Binge Eating" and "How to Recover from an Episode of Binge-Eating". So when I read his article focusing on the Thanksgiving holidays, I thought what better time to remind you of the importance of still focusing on your health.
Many times when holidays, special festivities and events come up (which can be very often!!), we either do one of two things: not eat all day in preparation for the holiday binge or give up every inhibition and enjoy every guilty pleasure. Well…. you DO have another option and that is, making healthy choices.
Herve offers some practical but oftentimes, ignored eating and cooking tips for making healthy choices during the Thanksgiving season. Here are the ones I'll make sure to remember:
1. Load up on meat and vegetables and keep the carbs to a minimum. Keep your protein intake high by eating more skinless turkey pieces and vegetables. By having a salad before the main meal, you fill yourself up with goodness first, guilty pleasure last.
2. Drink more water. Besides helping you stay hydrated, it can also delay your feelings of "drunkeness" as you also toast to give thanks.
3. Converse more, masticate less. It's a time to get together with family and reunite to share experiences of what's happened in the last year. It's quality time wih friends and with family that you should focus on. In other words, don't hang out at the dinner table.
For more tips and suggestions for holding on instead of gaining more weight during the holidays, check out this article.

City Lights (1931)
There may be folks who can remain dry-eyed and hard-hearted during the final moments of Charlie Chaplin's City Lights, but take care: Anyone that cynical shouldn't be entirely trusted.
Chaplin's silent masterworks, one-reelers and features alike, are continually rediscovered by new generations, and recognized as timeless classics by adoring audiences and fellow filmmakers. ("For me," Francois Truffaut famously enthused, "they are the most beautiful films in the world. Chaplin means more to me than the idea of God.") To be sure, Chaplin's relatively few talking pictures -- especially Limelight (1952) and The Great Dictator (1940) -- also inspire admiration and affection. But his pre-talkie efforts are the wonderments that guarantee his immortality, that ensure his very name will forever serve as an adjective for any attempt, successful or otherwise, to mix pratfalling and heart-tugging in a crowd-pleasing comedy.
The Kid (1921) may be more aggressively sentimental, and The Gold Rush (1925) perhaps is more commonly acclaimed as his magnum opus, but City Lights (1931) is by far the most Chaplinesque of all Chaplin movies, being an absolutely magical commingling of graceful pantomime, knockabout tomfoolery, inspired silliness and – perhaps most important – profoundly affecting poignancy. It's also, not incidentally, a project Chaplin insisted on shooting as a silent movie long after talking pictures had become the accepted norm.
City Lights begins, of course, with Chaplin cleverly introduced in his familiar role as The Little Tramp, the elegantly mustached gentleman whose shabby attire (derby hat, frock coat, baggy trousers, outsized shoes) is offset by his courtly manner and cane-twirling, hat-tipping panache. And it proceeds with the sort of seemingly improvised but intricately choreographed funny business that many comic actors still emulate. (Check out his classic bits in a raucous nightclub and a high-society party.) In the closing scenes, however, City Lights gradually builds to an epiphany of sweetly painful pathos, leading to a final, indelible image of a man smiling with hopeless longing at a woman whose love he fears he could never – not now, not in a million lifetimes – deserve.
Throughout much of City Lights, Chaplin maintains a lighter and mood, even as The Little Tramp – a.k.a. Charlie -- is repeatedly abused or embarrassed. (Chaplin customarily billed himself as Charles Chaplin for his writing and directorial credits, but always stuck with Charlie to identify himself as star of the show.) When a blind flower girl (Virginia Merrill) naively assumes he is a free-spending dandy, Charlie is so smitten that he resorts to drastic measures -- including, most hilariously, his participation in a boxing match -- to earn enough money to sustain the mistaken identity.
Periodically, Charlie enjoys an evening's revelry with an alcoholic millionaire (Harry Myers) who drinks to steadily increasing excess in the wake of his wife's departure. Whenever the millionaire sobers up, however, he never recognizes Charlie as his boon companion from the night before. His selective memory proves to be awfully inconvenient for Charlie: After giving the Little Tramp enough money for the flower girl to have an operation that will restore her eyesight, the millionaire forgets all about his generosity. Which, unfortunately, leads to Charlie's arrest and imprisonment.
After his release, Charlie looks even more bedraggled and destitute than he does in the opening scenes. The good news is, the flower girl, who has opened a flower shop, can now see. The bad news is – well, she can now see him.
"She recognizes who he must be by his shy, confident, shining joy as he comes silently toward her," critic James Agee wrote in 1949. "And he recognizes himself, for the first time, through the terrible changes in her face. The camera just exchanges a few quiet close-ups of the emotions which shift and intensify in each face. It is enough to shrivel the heart to see, and it is the greatest piece of acting and the highest moment in movies."
The final image of Manhattan (1979), Woody Allen's melancholy romantic comedy, is a loving homage to the heart-wrenching finale of City Lights. It's to Allen's considerable credit that his version is almost as affecting as Chaplin's original, which Allen admits he carefully studied. "City Lights was funny and also tragic," Allen told The New York Times in 2000. "Some think it's sentimental, but to me, it's an honest film about love." For all his careful appraisal of Chaplin's works, Allen says he still can't fully deconstruct the magic of the master: "I don't believe Chaplin was aware of creating a new vocabulary for film comedy. He just happened to be that gifted, that superb. Very few have taken that extreme leap into a realm that is indefinable and unexplainable."

Every exhibition is a collectively shared form of an ideal, intellectual, public "mental" space, bringing together co-authors, points of reference, and forms of knowledge. This provisional map is a constant negotiation between discussion partners with their mappings of time and space, reflecting their individual realities. As a presentation, an exhibition allows public access to its makers' latest editorial decisions, final data-rendering and temporary design structure. What happens when it is born as an idea in one hemisphere and moved to another? How does it become an ongoing exhibition process starting with a research visit, an exchange of artist residencies, and experimental open studios? Under what conditions can an exhibition continue to develop content internationally along with local cultural codes? What happens to this cultural context, intellectual climate and everyday realities and how can these communicate with diverse audiences?
In Politics of Sharing an antipodean perspective crosses with a Continental/European approach to create a trilogy of exhibitions with unfolding content in three phases: Berlin, Stuttgart and Auckland. Departing from the organisational challenge of being produced in between two hemispheres the project naturally involves questions around sharing, distributing and resourcing, but also respectfully aims to learn from Māori knowledge to challenge a "Westernised" currency. Based on possible translations of some of its key references -such as marae, wānanga, and whakapapa- into a contemporary art context, the exhibition intends to create open conversations about the ways which define how we live together on our planet. An immediate example could be the critical way of reconsidering how we approach each other. The European form of handshake, which might be taken as a reciprocal declaration of solidarity, is here replaced by the hongi, which defines the exchange of the breath we share. Māori cosmogonic creation narratives also focus on the notion of sharing, by looking at the relationship between Ranginui and Papatuanuku who open up the space between them, for an ever-spiraling cycle of creative potential. The complexities of the human condition are explained through the multitude of their offspring. The cultural understanding of whakapapa, which literally translates as making layers upon the earth, shows itself socio-economically in culturally specific aspects of landownership, property and organisation of public space. The exhibition is inspired by this discussion, and reminds us of a simple reality that surrounds us as human beings: As we look at the same sky we share the same air.
The exhibition "Politics of Sharing" has been developed in collaboration with Germany's ifa (Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen), an institutional structure that promotes cultural dialogues; it was first launched in ifa's Berlin gallery, and later travelled to Stuttgart during 2016.

Public Programme
February 2 – 6, 2017, Waitangi
Local Time: Waitangi 2-Feb-2017 - 6-Feb-2017 1000+1300
Local Time's contribution to Politics of Sharing will be to extend the opportunities for exchange, and collective, situational learning within the exhibition by undertaking fieldwork at Te Tii Marae during the lead up to Waitangi Day. Local Time have worked with Ngāpuhi photographer John Miller to collaboratively offer a presentation of his work, and the opportunity for people to hear his kōrero. This project builds on Local Time's previous work facilitating conversations in ways attentive to the rhythms and histories of place, and engaging the dynamics of visitor and host in the context of mana whenua and discourses of indigenous self-determination. The results of the visit will be shared with the Artspace audience during discussion events for the exhibition.
Saturday March 4, 7am–12pm, Ōtara Markets
Sharing time in Ōtara
Organised by Siliga David Setoga
Visit Artspace at the Ōtara markets. Join us for a special tour to the Ōtara Cube to launch Artspace NZ's video programme Imaginary Date Line with works from Pilimi Manu, Jeremy Leatinu'u, Darcell Apelu, Vea Mafile'o, Shannon Te Ao, Rik Wilson, Janet Lilo and Nova Paul, on view until April 1.
Saturday March 4, 2pm, Auckland Art Gallery Auditorium
Natalie Robertson in conversation with Gabriel Rossell-Santillán
Artists Working with Generous Forms of Genealogies
Natalie Robertson (Ngati Porou/Clan Donnachaidh) proposes a critical question in the Maori context of whether any 'marae' or any event within there can be photographed, in reference to the cultural interpretation of image, moral permission and communal identity. In his work, Gabriel Rossell Santillán (Mexico) utilises drawing, performance, photography and video in order to create specific narratives that act as epistemologies in sharing authorships, indigenous critical thinking, feminists of colour and queer thinkers. These epistemologies explore subaltern and alternative forms of knowledge transfer, often highlighting the body through interaction with smell, heat, humidity etc. Departing from their conversations in Stuttgart when they met in an earlier iteration of the Politics of Sharing show, Natalie Robertson and Gabriel Rossell-Santillán will present their works and develop a common discussion ground about their learning experiences, challenges and strategies of and working experiences with their ancestral histories. Questions will rise around ethics, responsibilities and methodologies of their research and practices…
Wednesday March 22, 6pm at Lorne Street
Kunci in conversation with Local Time
Sharing is Thinking Together | Thinking Together is Sharing
Debate on Research-Studio-Exhibition
Before the exhibition Politics of Sharing debuted at the ifa Gallery in Berlin, Indonesian artist collective Kunci initiated a programme of discussions and events around the term "numpang", and subsequently Local Time presented selected works from John Miller at the Waitangi Treaty Weekends as part of their field survey for 'Politics of Sharing's' Auckland episode. Research and fieldwork are important elements in their practices, that intertwined with ruptured mobility experiences. To move outside of and (sometimes) within the scope of studio, study, and politics of exhibition, this stimulates the discussion about the meaning of the field, home, people, and knowledge produced in the process. How should the materiality of social interaction, later used as the source of artistic or intellectual production, be perceived and appreciated? Would it be sufficient to refer to it as data, information, story, or cultural material? Can residency be equated with fieldwork? A residency might appear as short-term fieldwork to provide avenues for collaboration with different people from multiple planes of positioning and discursive strategies. Departing from their practices, Local Time and Kunci will share their perspectives and attempts at redefining the meaning of their situated works and knowledge.

So please comment ,like and subscribe on both my blog and YouTube.
Trend: BEE AND PUPPYCAT!
Bee and Puppycat is a really cute cartoon that inspired me to make my animations, It looks like 80's anime and is a funny version of Sailor Moon.
Plot: There is a woman named Bee and she has a very childish personality and it was a rainy day, She found this cat, but it smelt like a dog, the cat/dog was named PuppyCat and this Cat/Dog can talk and is very cute, Puppycat hates being called cute because on the inside he is a rebel (not really)
Bee has no job and Puppycat tries to apply Bee for a job but theese jobs are really whacky! Its so funny but really hard to explain but watch the halars series on YouTube! It is also made by the same people who made Adventure Time (Fredorater) and stars a famous YouTuber, Hannah Hart from 'My Drunk Kitchen'! Also the YouTube channel that makes the animations are 'Cartoon Hangover'

Since a long time my wife expressed the wish to visit her parents in law, see them in person, and also see some other members of the Swiss family. I also have not been to Switzerland since more than one year now. So we decided to make around 5 weeks "holidays" in Switzerland this year.
On the 28th of July we started our long journey. First we took a tuktuk to the new bus stand here in Gadag. The bus to Hubli takes around 1.5 hours. Then we sat 8 hours in the train to Bengaluru. The bus to the airport takes around one hour. Flying with Qatar Airways to Switzerland took around 13 hours with a 2.5 hour break in Doha. In Switzerland we took the train to Lenzburg. After 44 minutes we left the train and waitet for mom to pick us up. All in all we needed around 34 hours from door to door.
What was the first thing we did in Switzerland? We bought some olive bread, roasted chicken, yoghurt, apple puree and water. Then later we had a nice meal in the train:
We helped mom in and around the house:
We made a few excursions, some with the car, and some by train and bus. We bought a "Swiss Travel Pass Flex 8 Days" which allowed us on 8 days of our choice to use any train or bus in Switzerland, and even some ships and other things were included or we got rebate. Here is a map of Switzerland showing the places we visited:
Here is a list of places we visited. Later i will add more blog entries about them:
- Laufenburg, Switzerland and Germany
- Chasseral
- Bellinzona and Locarno
- Chateau de Chillon and Geneve
- Aareschlucht and Reichenbachfall
- Flumserberg
- Titlis
- Simmenfaelle and Sieben Bruennen
- Bern
- Stein am Rhein and Rheinfall
- Luzern, Vierwaldstaettersee
- Schloss Hallwyl
- Mellingen
- Reuss in Windisch
- Baumschulbahn in Schinznach
- Baden
- Public swimming baths in Auenstein, Suhr, Dietikon
- Hallwylersee
- Lenzburg, Staufberg
- Eguisheim, France
Early morning on the 4th of September we started our long journey back home. We had a nice time in Switzerland and it was hard to leave. But on the other hand we also missed our home and the Indian family.

Other Investments
HIRE Minnesota Workforce Forecasting Tool: HIRE Minnesota is a coalition of 70+ organizations (led by Summit Academy OIC) that works to ensure that public investments in infrastructure lift people out of poverty and reduce racial disparities. In partnership with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights, who (along with the Metropolitan Council) enforces the workforce requirements on the Green Line project, HIRE MN developed a tool to forecast the remaining hours available on a contract and compare them against past performances of employing women and people of color. It provides proactive notice of difficulty meeting workforce goals in enough time to address the issue.
Saint Paul TOD Manager: The Funders Collaborative provided support for a newly created Transit-Oriented Development Manager position at the City of Saint Paul to facilitate transit-oriented economic development along all of the City's transitways but particularly the Green Line.
University Avenue Urban Manufacturing Study: In 2012, University United, SPARC, and Saint Anthony Park Community Council undertook a market study to analyze the viability of a non-profit real estate developer purchasing and redeveloping a 50,000 square feet industrial facility to function for small manufacturers, artisans, and artists in the Twin Cities region.

We won't be doing this, the vast majority of our live items can be used by people with little wealth, but also by those with a lot more. If we're going to add items like feathers, they will be useless to 99% of the VIP's, which would clog up the page a lot. We prefer to add items that are appealing to everyone because of their low price but higher limit.

- Passed away on May 25, 2008 .
Hilbert Hunke Hilbert was born May 30, 1935 on the farm east of Monterey to Bernard and Cecelia Kreikemeier Hunke. He attended St. Boniface Catholic School and graduated from Guardian Angels Catholic School with the class of 1954. Hilbert served in the US Army from November of 1956 until November of 1958, stationed in Germany. On November 26, 1960, he married Joan Logan in Pueblo, Colorado. The couple farmed the home place near Monterey and Hilbert worked at IBP, later Tyson, for 35 years retiring in 2003. Hilbert was a member of St. Boniface Catholic Church, where he served as a trustee and on the church council, and Knights of Columbus.
Joan Hunke Joan was born September 16, 1937 in Colorado Springs, Colorado to Chester and Jennie Gabrovshik Logan. Joan graduated from Catholic High School in Pueblo, Colorado and College of St. Mary''s in Omaha. On November 26, 1960, Joan married Hilbert Hunke in Pueblo, Colorado. The couple farmed near Monterey. Joan taught school in the early years, took time off to raise her family, and returned to teaching 4th grade at Guardian Angels Catholic School in West Point, later becoming librarian/media specialist. She had just retired in the spring of 2009 after 33 years. Joan was a member of St. Boniface Catholic Church at Monterey. She enjoyed crafts and quilting, and was an avid "collector". Joan and Hilbert enjoyed traveling, and she could always recommend a great book.

Here's a taste of the books I write for young adults, with links to the publishers' sites should you wish to read more or to order copies.
THE BLACK BANNER (writing as Helen Hart)
'Gold and Glory!' The pirates took up the chant. 'Gold and Glory! Gold and Glory!' Instantly our men surged from their hiding places, weapons primed… Between snatches of smoke and billowing sulphurous fumes I caught glimpses of fighting… Musket shot whistled through the air and splintered the deck timbers. A dozen pirates became two dozen, and then three as Logan's men massed on the deck…
1719, and the high seas are plagued by the lawless. Pirates rule the crystal waters of the Caribbean, hunting heavily-laden merchant ships with savage ferocity. Entire crews are condemned to die beneath a cutlass blade unless they swear allegiance to the black banner.
Penniless Becky Baxter (13) is determined to escape a life of poverty. Cropping her hair and dressing in breeches, Becky leaves the backstreets of Bristol far behind to embark on a new life of adventure and fortune on the high seas. But when the ship she's sailing on is captured by pirates, Becky faces a stark choice: join the pirates, or pay with her life…
THE VAMPIRE PLAGUES SERIES (writing as Sebastian Rook)
Emily's eyes were pools of terror. "Jump!" Ben cried. And Emily jumped. The ground where she had been crouching was suddenly torn apart. Fragments of earth flew upwards and sideways and a corpse heaved itself out of the open grave…
Emily caught a flashing glimpse of movement as two men broke free from the shadows and began to run… For a moment Emily thought they were bandits. But then she saw their deathly white faces and claw-like hands. "Lampirs!" she cried.
London is free from the dreaded lampirs, but they have left a terrible legacy. And Jack and Emily have just three weeks to rescue Ben from a horrifying fate…
Vampire Plagues 6: Extermination
A hundred snarling lampirs had gathered across the pathway. Grey river-mist curled around their feet. Somewhere a wolf howled, and a bat dived to flit low across the surface of the water. And Jack saw, with a sickening certainty, that there was no way past the lampirs… They were trapped.
Ben, Jack and Emily are journeying into the Polish mountains, desperate to end the lampir plague that is draining the country. If they destroy the monstrous Count Lampirska, evil founder of the lampir clan, then Poland's dead can rest at last. But the lampirs will do anything to stop them…
SISTERS OF THE SWORD SERIES (writing as Maya Healy)
Sisters of the Sword 1: Under the Cherry Blossom
I see you blink with surprise. A girl? You are thinking. Surely a girl cannot be a samurai!
Kimi and Hana are daughters of the Jito, a powerful samurai lord, but their privileged lives are shattered when their father is murdered. Hunted by his killer, it is up to the sisters to salvage what is left of their broken family-and avenge their father's death.
Sisters of the Sword 2: Shadows Across the Sun
Have you heard of the treachery, the terror and the bloodshed?
Kimi and Hana must flee the samurai dojo at which they have been hiding. Their father's killer has found them and discovered the letter exposing their mother's whereabouts. The sisters have to get to her before he does, for the family's survival now teeters on a blade's edge. Betrayal lurks everywhere in this thrilling second instalment of 'Sisters of the Sword'.

The Story of Stuff
A number of people have asked me how I got on this path of exploring the materials economy. It started in grade school and crystallized on a spring afternoon on Staten Island.
I grew up in Seattle, at that time a green and luscious city. My family would go camping every summer. Since this was in the days before DVDs in the back seats of family cars numbed young passengers, I'd look out the window, studying the landscape, for the whole drive. Each year, I noticed that the stores reached a bit further and the forests started a bit later than the previous year. I wondered where all those forests were going. I wondered how I could stop them from going away entirely.
It turned out to be fortuitous that I went to college in New York City, even though at the time it seemed an odd place to go for environmental studies. My college campus was on 116th street and my dorm room was on 110th street. Every morning I would groggily walk those 6 blocks, staring at the piles of garbage that line NYC's street's every dawn. Ten hours later, I'd walk back to my dorm, staring at the empty sidewalks.
I became increasingly intrigued with this microcosm of materials flow. I started looking into the trash each morning to see what was in those never-ending piles. It was mostly paper. Paper! That is where my beloved forests were ending up. In the U.S., 42 percent of industrial wood harvest is used to make paper. And about 40 percent of the stuff in municipal garbage is paper, all of which is recyclable or compostable if it hasn't been treated with too many toxic chemicals. By simply recycling, rather than trashing, this paper, we could reduce our garbage by 40 percent, which would also drastically reduce pressure to cut forests and help with climate change and that doesn't even get into the massive benefits of reducing paper use.
Once I realized that those morning trash piles were nearly half paper – were once forests – I was determined to find out where they were going. So I took a trip to the infamous Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island. Coving 4.6 square miles (12 square km), Fresh kills, is one of the largest dumps in the world. When it was officially closed in 2001, some say its volume was greater than that of the Great Wall of China; it's peaks 25 meters taller than the Statue of Liberty. I had never seen anything like it. I stood at its edge in absolute awe. As far as I could see in every direction were couches, refrigerators, boxes, apple cores, used clothes, stuff. You know how a gory car crash scene makes us want to turn away and stare at the same time? That is what it was like. I just couldn't comprehend this massive mountain of materials, reduced to muck, by some system obviously out of control. I knew this was terribly wrong. I didn't understand it back then, 20 years ago, but I vowed to figure it out. And I did. It's the Story of Stuff.

Six Predicted Gripes for 2006
Frankly, I've never been that great a prognosticator, but, you know, I've noticed that the track records of the serial crystal-ball gazers in this business don't tend to be any better than mine. So here are my predictions for the six likeliest news stories of 2006 that will raise the ire of my readers.
Windows, Spyware EULAs to Merge
The strategy behind Microsoft's recent acquisition of Claria, 180Solutions, and Direct Revenue is becoming clearer. "What we really wanted these companies for is their EULAs, so we can integrate them with the Windows EULA," a source at Microsoft explained. "Now in order to use any new computer, you'll have to agree to a EULA that allows us to display ads from our combined network in perpetuity." The source said Microsoft expects other anti-spyware vendors to follow its leading in changing the type of software that is targeted for removal. "Instead of tagging Gator or 180search as spyware, anti-spyware tools will now look for programs and websites that display ads without having gotten the user to click OK to a EULA. Such as Google and Yahoo, for instance.".....The Gripe Line Weblog by Ed Foster

Cellulitis Introduction
Cellulitis is an infection caused by bacteria, which affect skin and deeper soft tissues. Upon infection, afflicted areas are usually red, swollen, and tender. The infection may also be accompanied by regionally swollen lymph glands. Cellulitis can have serious consequences because of its potential to spread through the lymphatic system and into the bloodstream (bacteremia). Bacteremia, sepsis, and other complications resulting from the intial infection require laboratory tests to determine the appropriate method of treatment. However, the development of such underlying complications are rare, and are often prevented by proper, and timely antibiotic treatment.
The lower extremities (legs and feet) are the most common sites of infection. Cellulitis is most commonly caused by the bacterial microorganism Streptococcus pyogenes. Occasionally, the bacterial microorganism Staphylococcus aureus causes cellulitis. Treatments for this form of bacterial infection are typically less extensive than that of streptococcus. Staph infections are, largely, the result of an open wound or cutaneous abscess. Cellulitis may also be preceded by a skin lesion such as an ulceration, puncture wound, or dermatitis. Fungal infections, like tinea pedis (athlete's foot), may also increase the risk for onset of this condition.
Cellulitis Statistics
According to the Center for Disease Control (1);
- An estimated 13.3 per 10,000 of the population were hospitalized for cellulitis in 1998 alone-
Cellulitis Symptoms
The general symptoms of cellulitis include:
- Red, hot, swollen, and tender infection area
- The affected skin surface may resemble the skin of an orange (peau d'orange)
- Regionally swollen lymph glands
- Fever and chills may be present
- May have a history of skin trauma
- Skin abscesses may form
- A rare complication of bacteria invading the bloodstream (bacteremia)
Cellulitis Treatment
The affected Cellulitis area should be immobilized and elevated to help reduce swelling. Cool, wet dressings should be applied to the affected area to help relieve local pain and tenderness. The drug of choice for cellulitis is penicillin. For penicillin-allergic patients, erythromycin is an alternative for mild infections, and clindamycin can be used for severe cases. If there is pus or an open wound, a blood culture can be taken. Results should dictate the attending physician's antibiotic choice. Mild to moderate infections may be treated with oral antibiotics. More severe cases of cellulitis may require hospitalization and I.V. antibiotics. Cellulitis symptoms usually resolve after a few days of antibiotic treatment.
Supplements helpful for Cellulitis Treatment
Bromelain Bromelain, a protein-digesting enzyme complex derived from pineapple, can enhance the absorption of antibiotics, making them more effective in killing bacteria (2, 3). Bromelain supplementation can be a useful adjunct in cellulitis treatments to help fight bacterial infection.
Arginine The amino acid arginine can promote nitric oxide synthesis, an important antibacterial component of the immune system. Studies have shown that supplementation with arginine can protect against bacterial infections as well as promote wound healing (4-6).
Zinc Zinc supplementation promotes immune function. Zinc can also enhance antiseptic agents used for cellulitis wound dressings (6).
Oregano Oil Oil of oregano has been used for conditions of inflammation, infection, indigestion, dysentery, and jaundice. Oregano oil is a powerful antiseptic and potent antibacterial, and has been used as an alternative to antibiotics (8). Rosmarinic acid, an active ingredient in oregano, may reduce inflammation (9). Other active ingredients, including thymol and carvacrol, have been shown to kill bacterial microorganisms (10).
Lactoferrin Lactoferrin, a natural peptide found throughout the body, has been reported to have antimicrobial, probiotic, and immune-enhancing properties. Studies have found that lactoferrin's natural antibiotic properties can inhibit a wide range of bacteria, yeasts, and intestinal parasites (11-14). Since antibiotics are used in cellulitis treatment and often destroy friendly bacteria in the intestinal tract, lactoferrin's probiotic properties are particularly helpful for enhancing intestinal tract immunity and insuring healthy intestinal microflora (14, 15).
Probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacteria) Probiotics including lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidobacteria are nutritional supplements containing the same beneficial bacteria that are found in the digestive tract. As mentioned, antibiotics are used in cellulitis treatment. These drugs, however, often destroy friendly bacteria in the intestinal tract. The dietary supplementation of probiotics may be particularly helpful for insuring the regeneration of such "friendly" bacteria. (16).

NEW YORK -- Julie Roehm, director of brand communication for the Chrysler group, wants a system for buying and selling TV ad time that is transparent and open rather than the private discussions and back room deals that are the current practice of the so-called upfront.
Speaking at the Association of National Advertisers' Television Advertising Forum in New York, Roehm said the current model is good for networks but bad for clients, comparing it to a 1939 stock-and-cattle exchange. Her proposed solution is based on the Nasdaq trading system.
TV as a commodity
Her plan actually harkens back to 2000, when Enron hoped to create a spot TV market prior to its collapse the following year. Though the plan garnered curious interest, the criticism then, as today, focuses on treating TV like a commodity, which discounts nontraditional revenues, promotions and other value add-ons.
"It's saying a spot is a spot is a spot," said Jim Speros, chief marketing officer of Ernst & Young and a former chairman of the association. "I think the cable companies and networks only have money to lose in that case. ... On the advertiser side, there could be a financial upside, but on the quality side of connecting objectives and programming to specific needs and working with networks as marketing partners rather than just vendors, I'm not sure it would make for a better system."
Buying and trading
Under her proposal, networks would place starting values on commercial pods, or spots -- the 15-, 30- or 60-second spaces available for advertisers to buy to place their commercials -- just as companies do with shares prior to an initial public offering, and then anonymous advertisers buy and sell the air time at prices determined by the marketplace. Networks decide who participates by providing access codes to those buyers who meet certain criteria, such as promising to deliver creative to the network that met its standards and deadlines.
The networks would also act as traders, buying back spots they feel are undervalued or want to use for promotional purposes and collecting a commission for trafficking creative and executive exchanges.
Roehm did point out that a Nasdaq-based system wouldn't allow networks to bundle -- the common practice of packaging highly sought-after spots with less attractive inventory in order to get ride of it. Rather, buyers would bid on only the space and spots they want.

Srivibhavan (Vibhav) Balaram is the Founder and CEO of CloudByte Inc. He is a General Manager with more than 25 years of industry experience. He has spent 5 years working in the United States with companies like Hewlett Packard, IBM and AT&T Bell Labs.
For a while, the storage industry appeared to be fairly stable (read: little technology innovation), with consolidation around a few large players. Several smaller companies were bought out by larger players – 3PAR by HP, Isilon by EMC, Compellent by Dell. However, in the last year, we've seen a renewed action in the space with promising new start-ups, dedicated to solving the storage problems in the new-age data centers. So, what exactly is the problem with legacy storage solutions in new-age data centers?
Evolution of Storage Technology
For better perspective, let's start with a quick recap of data storage technology evolution. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, storage was first separated from the server to remove bottlenecks on data scalability and throughput. NAS (Network Attached Storage) and SAN (Storage Area Networks) came into existence, Fibre Channel (FC) protocols were developed and large scale deployments followed. With a dedicated external controller (SAN) and a dedicated network (based on FC protocols), the new storage solutions provided data scalability, high-availability, higher throughput for applications and centralized storage management.
Server Virtualization and the Inadequacy of Legacy Solutions
Legacy SAN/NAS based storage solutions scaled well and proved adequate, until the advent of server virtualization. With server virtualization, the number of applications grew rapidly and external storage was now being shared among multiple applications to manage costs. Here, the monolithic controller architecture of legacy solutions proved a misfit as it resulted in noisy neighbor issues within shared storage. For example, if a back-up operation was initiated for a particular application, other applications received lower storage access and eventually, timed out. Further, storage could no longer be tuned for a particular workload as applications with disparate workloads shared the storage platform.
Rising Costs and Nightmarish Management
Legacy vendors attacked the above issues through several workarounds – including faster controller CPUs and recommending additional memory with fancy acronyms. Though these workarounds helped to an extent, the brute way to guarantee storage quality of service (QoS) was to either ridiculously over-provision storage controllers (with utilization below 30-40 percent) or dedicate physical storage for performance-sensitive applications. Obviously, these negated the very purpose of sharing storage and containing storage costs in virtualized environments. Subsequently, storage costs relative to overall data center costs increased dramatically. Being hardware-based, legacy vendors didn't see any reason to change this situation. With dedicated storage for different workloads, there were several storage islands in a data center which were chronically un-utilized. Soon, "LUN" management became a hot new skill and also a nightmare for storage administrators.
The New-Age Storage Solutions
With the advent of the cloud, today's data centers typically have 100s of VMs which require guaranteed storage access/performance/QoS. Given the limitation of legacy solutions to scale in these virtualized environments, it was inevitable that a new breed of storage start-ups cropped up. Many of these start-ups chose to simplify the "nightmarish" management either by providing tools to observe and manage "hot LUNs" (a term to denote LUNs that serve demanding VMs) or by providing granular storage analytics on a per-VM basis. However, the management approach does not really cure the "noisy neighbor" issues, leaving a lot of other symptoms unresolved.
Multi-tenant Storage Controllers
There is a desperate need for solutions which attack the noisy neighbor problem at its root cause i.e., by making storage controllers truly multi-tenant. These controllers should be able to isolate and dedicate storage resources for every application based on its performance demands. Here, storage endpoints (LUNs) will be defined in terms of both capacity and performance (IOPS, throughput and latency). These multi-tenant controllers will then be able to guarantee storage QoS for every application right from a shared storage platform.
