Marguerite Durand

Marguerite Durand by Jules Cayron

Marguerite Durand (24 January 1864 – 16 March 1936) was a French stage actress, journalist, and a leading suffragette. She founded her own newspaper, and ran for election. She is also known for having a pet lion. For her contributions to the women's suffrage movement in France, the Bibliothèque Marguerite Durand was named in her honor.

Biography

Born into a middle-class family, Marguerite Durand was sent to study at a Roman Catholic convent. After finishing her primary education, she entered the Conservatoire de Paris before joining the Comédie Française in 1881.

In 1888, she gave up her career in the theatre to marry an up-and-coming young lawyer, Georges Laguerre.Georges Boulanger, her husband introduced her to the world of radical populist politics and involved her in writing pamphlets for the "Boulangists" movement. However, the marriage was short-lived and in 1891 the couple separated after which Durand took a job writing for Le Figaro, the leading newspaper of the day. In 1896, the paper sent her to cover the Congrès Féministe International (International Feminist Congress) ostensibly to write a humorous article. She came away from the event a greatly changed person, so much so that the following year on 9 December 1897 she founded a feminist daily newspaper, La Fronde to pick up where Hubertine Auclert's La Citoyenne left off.

A poster supporting her election and featuring "Tiger"

Durand's newspaper, run exclusively by women, advocated for women's rights, including admission to the Bar association and the École des Beaux-Arts. As well, its editorials demanded women be allowed to be named to the Legion of Honor and to participate in parliamentary debates. This included, later in 1910, Durand's attempt to organize female candidates for the legislative elections. At the 1900 World's Fair in Paris, she organized the Congress For The Rights of Women. As well as establishing a summer residence for female journalists in Pierrefonds in the Picardy region, Durand turned to activism for working women, helping to organize several trade unions.


Marguerite Durand

Marguerite Durand, consumed by a passion for the equality of women, was an attractive woman of style and elegance who was famous for walking the streets of Paris with her pet lion she named "Tiger." Instrumental in the establishing of the zoological Cimetière des Chiens in the Parisian suburb of Asnières-sur-Seine where her lion was eventually interred, her activism raised the profile of feminism in France and Europe to an unprecedented level of respectability.

Library

In the course of her life and activism she compiled an enormous collection of papers that she gave to the government in 1931. The following year, the Bibliothèque Marguerite Durand opened in Paris and still operates as a specialized public library run by the Paris municipal library system, where researchers can work beneath a portrait of Durand.

Duple Calypso

The Duple Calypso was a design of semi-integral coach built by Duple between 1983 and 1984 using running gear from the Bova Europa.

History

In the early 1980s the British coach market underwent considerable change, putting pressure on the established British coachbuilding firms which had previously dominated the market. In the 1970s the great majority of coaches sold in the UK had comprised a British-built chassis with separately assembled bodywork by one of the two dominant domestic coachbuilders, Duple and Plaxton. The highest sales volumes were achieved by lightweight chassis such as the Bedford Y series and Ford R series, and even imported chassis such as the Volvo B58 usually carried Duple or Plaxton coachwork. However, the 1980s saw a move away from lightweights towards heavier and more sophisticated designs, increasingly supplied by foreign chassis and bodywork manufacturers. Some of the foreign coaches now selling in Britain were of integral construction, and Duple wished to produce an integral design of its own to compete more effectively with these. The first attempts were a pair of prototypes built in 1983, one of which was a semi-integral variant of the Duple Caribbean body built on German Auwärter Neoplan N716 running gear, which remained a one-off. The other prototype employed Dutch BOVA running gear within a unique style of semi-integral body known as the Duple Calypso, and a further 50 production vehicles of this type were built for the 1984 season.

The styling of the Calypso was a hybrid of the contemporary Duple Laser and Caribbean coach bodies which were produced in larger numbers. It was of intermediate height, being closer in height to the Laser but featuring bonded glazing like the Caribbean. However, while the Calypso had twin headlamps and a wide grille, most contemporary Laser and Caribbean bodies had quad headlamps and a small chrome grille (although the Calypso headlights/grille could be specified as an option).

In June 1983 Duple had been sold to the Hestair Group, which had previously acquired the British chassis manufacturer Dennis Brothers of Guildford. Duple was renamed Hestair Duple, and rather than persisting with semi-integrals built on third party running gear it was decided to develop a fully integral coach with running units from sister company Hestair Dennis.

He died in Guadalajara, Jalisco at the age of 93.

Poetry

Nandino's poetry uses both "romanticism and symbolism" and he is very much a provocative dissident who wanted to "erode the mystique around sexuality."Erotismo al rojo blanco/Eroticism at a Burning White, was given Mexico's highest literary prize in 1983.

Duple Viceroy

The Duple Viceroy was a type of coach bodywork built by Duple between 1966 and 1972. It was initially launched on lightweight front-engined chassis, but it was latterly built on mid-engined and heavyweight chassis as well. A variant of the Viceroy was the Duple Viceroy Express, which had a bus-type entrance door making it suitable for stage carriage work.

History

In 1966 Duple's standard 'Bella' family of coach bodies for full-sized front-engined chassis was sold under a variety of model names specific to the chassis: Bella Venture (Bedford VAM), Empress (Ford R192), Mariner (Ford R226) and Vega Major (Bedford VAL), all of which were built at Duple's original Hendon factory in North London. For heavyweight and other mid-engined chassis the larger-windowed Commander body was built at the Duple (Northern) factory in Blackpool, and the similar Viscount was also built in Blackpool as an alternative, premium body for the VAM and R192.

Duple's coach designs were usually updated every two or three years, and for the 1967 season the range was due a major re-design. Duple had been losing sales to its main rival Plaxton, whose large-windowed Panorama model was making Duple's Bella range look dated.

Production of the new Viceroy range began at Hendon in late 1966 for the 1967 sales season, on Bedford VAL/VAM and Ford R192/R226 chassis. Bodies on the 32-foot VAM and R192 could seat up to 45 passengers, whereas the longer 36-foot Viceroy 36 on the VAL and R226 seated up to 52. Initially the Viscount body remained in production at Blackpool, but it was soon eclipsed by the Viceroy and was dropped after the 1967 season, by which time production of the Viceroy 36 on the three-axle Bedford VAL chassis had already been transferred to Blackpool.

A facelift for the Viceroy range was announced at the 1968 Commercial Motor Show for the 1969 season.Viceroy 37 and seating up to 53.

Despite the facelifts for the Viceroy and Commander, rivals Plaxton had again stolen the march on Duple with the launch of their own new model at the same show.


Duple Viceroy

In its final years the Viceroy became available on a wider range of chassis. The Commander body had been dropped in 1970, so for the 1971 and 1972 seasons the Viceroy and Viceroy 37 were made available on heavyweight mid-engined AEC Reliance and Leyland Leopard chassis,

The British Government's "Bus Grant" provided a 50% subsidy towards the cost of new service buses, but did not apply to coaches. However, many operators used their coaches on local bus services as well as coaching, particularly in the winter months when coach business was quieter. For the 1972 season the Viceroy Express body was built on YRQ and R192 chassis, this having bus-type doors and other modifications to make them suitable for OMO (one-man operation) stage carriage services.

Despite being increasingly outmoded the Viceroy, along with the smaller Vista and Vega, continued to sell well on lightweight chassis until the end of production. For the 1972 season Duple's total output was 1,034 bodies, its highest for several years and only 251 below that of market leader Plaxton.

Replacement

At the end of 1972 the all new Duple Dominant was launched to replace the Viceroy. The Dominant was heavily influenced by the styling of the Plaxton Panorama Elite,

Accidents and Incidents

A Duple Viceroy was involved in the Dibbles Bridge coach crash in 1975, Britain's worst ever road accident. After the brakes on a 1967 Bedford VAM5 failed it ran out of control down a steep gradient and rolled over on the curve at the bottom, falling over the side of a bridge and landing on and crushing its roof. The coach had carried a full load of 45 passengers plus the driver, of whom only 13 passengers survived. The accident led to tougher structural standards for coach bodywork,

This article is about a mental factor in Buddhism. For the town in Guam, see Piti, Guam. For the soup, see Piti (food). For the Spanish footballer, see Francisco Medina Luna.

Pīti in Pali (Sanskrit: Prīti) is a mental factor (Pali:cetasika, Sanskrit: caitasika) associated with the development of jhāna (Sanskrit: dhyāna) in Buddhist meditation. According to Buddhadasa Bhikkhu, piti is a stimulating, exciting and energizing quality, as opposed to the calmness of sukha.

Pīti

Definition

Piti is a joyful saṅkhāra (formation) associated with no object, so the practitioner is not attaining it by desire. It is often translated into the English word "rapture" and is distinguished from the longer-lasting meditative "joy" or "happiness" (Pali, Sanskrit: sukha) which is a subtler feeling which arises alongside pīti.

Mental factor in meditation

Further information: Dhyāna in Buddhism and Samādhi

In the commentarial tradition on Buddhist meditation, the development of jhāna (Sanskrit: dhyāna) is described as the development of five mental factors (cetasika) that counteract the five hindrances:

 1. vitakka ("applied thought") counteracts sloth and torpor (lethargy and drowsiness)
 2. vicāra ("sustained thought") counteracts doubt (uncertainty)
 3. pīti (rapture) counteracts ill-will (malice)
 4. sukha (non-sensual pleasure") counteracts restlessness-worry (excitation and anxiety)
 5. ekaggata (one-pointedness) counteracts sensory desire


Pīti

Both pīti and sukha are born of bodily seclusion and mental quietude in first jhāna, then are born of focused concentration (samādhi) in the second jhāna but only sukha is sustained in the third jhāna while pīti fades away in the course of cultivating pure, mindful equanimity (upekkhāsatipārisuddhi).

The 5th century CE Visuddhimagga distinguishes between pīti and sukha in the following experiential manner:

And wherever the two are associated, happiness [here, Ñāṇamoli's translation of pīti] is the contentedness at getting a desirable object, and bliss [sukha] is the actual experiencing of it when got. Where there is happiness [pīti] there is bliss (pleasure) [sukha]; but where there is bliss [sukha] there is not necessarily happiness [pīti]. Happiness is included in the formations aggregate; bliss is included in the feeling aggregate. If a man exhausted in a desert saw or heard about a pond on the edge of a wood, he would have happiness; if he went into the wood's shade and used the water, he would have bliss....

Fivefold classification

As the meditator experiences tranquillity (samatha), one of five kinds of physical pleasure (piti) will arise. These are:

  * Weak rapture only causes piloerection.
  * Short rapture evocates some thunder "from time to time".
  * Going down rapture explodes inside the body, like waves.
  * Exalting rapture "makes the body jump to the sky".
  * Fulfilling rapture seems to be a huge flood of a mountain stream.

Note that only the last two are considered piti, specifically. The first four are a preparation for the final stage, which is the jhanic factor.


Pīti

* Samatha (tranquility of the mind)
  * Jhāna (absorption)
  * Sukha (happiness/bliss, conascent (sahajāta) with piti during first two jhanas)
  * Upekkha (equanimity)

Peter Aird

Peter Aird, Jr. (29 August 1921 – 6 December 2000) was a Scottish professional footballer, who played in the Scottish Football League for Hibernian and East Fife.

Biography

Aird was born into a coal-mining community of Glencraig, Fife.Gordon Highlanders during the First World War, and played for local side Glencraig Rovers with future professionals Mick Gilhooley and Bob Rowan.

In 1927, Peter Aird, Sr. was among 20 miners convicted of mobbing and rioting during a strike at the Glencraig Colliery. The miners were convicted assaulting police officers and other miners returning to work and causing significant damage to the colliery equipment and buildings. According to a local historian, Peter Aird was not involved in the violence but—as he was a member of the Communist Party of Great Britain—was singled out to serve as an example. He served nine months in jail and was blacklisted after his release, forcing the family to move to Bowhill near Cardenden.

At age 14, Peter Aird, Jr. left school to work at the Bowhill Colliery, just a few years after the Bowhill mining disaster.Willie Aird — a centre-forward for Greenock Morton and Queen of the South — Peter was able to escape the dangers of the mines through football. Aird first played at the junior level for the Bowhill Rovers in Cardenden.

In 1943, Hibernian manager Willie McCartney first noticed Aird and took him to Edinburgh, where he played for the club from until 1951. He then spent two years at East Fife before he wrapped up his footballing career in Wales.

Aird later worked as a manager for a textile factory in Dundee and also in the dockyard at Rosyth.

Aird died in 2000 and was survived by his wife of 53 years, Marion Gray Aird, and their five children. His ashes were scattered on the pitch at Easter Road, where he and his wife had celebrated their golden anniversary in 1997 with a special floodlit party.

Frances E. Burns

Frances E. Burns

Frances E. Burns (May 2, 1866 – November 19, 1937) was an American social leader and business woman. She served as Great Commander for Michigan of the Ladies of the Maccabees.

Early life and education

Frances E. Sanford was born on a farm 1.5 miles (2.4 km) from Ionia, Michigan,Chicago before moving to the Ionia farm, where she was the second youngest child. She had two sisters and seven brothers. The family was financially comfortable.

Until she was seventeen years of age, Burns lived on the farm. During those early years she attended district school. She then graduated from the High School of Ionia. She was greatly interested and excelled in English and English composition. She was fond of home talent theatricals and usually managed to land the role of leading heroine. She also devoted much time and attention to music and singing, but a severe attack of diphtheria, when she was eighteen years of age, affected her vocal cords and spoiled her voice for singing. She was a devotee of horseback riding. She rode bareback and astride. From this it is evident that her parents were exceedingly liberal minded for their day and time.

Career

After graduating from high school, she taught kindergarten in St. Louis, Michigan. There, she met John H. Burns, whom she married in October, 1887.

Burns became an endowment member of the Great Hive Ladies of the Maccabees for Michigan on October 17, 1892. She was a delegate to the Great Hive review in 1894. At that time, she was elected Great Lieutenant Commander. At the end of her two-year term, Burns was elected Great Commander. Lillian M. Hollister, who had held that office for three years, gave it up in order to accept the office of Supreme Commander of the Supreme Hive. Burns held the office continuously from June 1896.


Frances E. Burns

Burns first appeared as a delegate to the National Fraternal Congress (N.F.C.) in 1896. The Maccabees were then prominent and very active in the Congress. Burns was a quiet observer and a receptive student. She was present as a delegate in 1897, again as a student and observer. The session of 1898 was a repetition of the previous congresses so far as Burns was concerned. At the close of the N.F.C. session of 1898, she was appointed a member of the Committee on Constitution and Laws. At the 1899 N.F.C., she led the Great Hive delegation. Although she was at that time an eloquent and forcible speaker, there is no information to the effect that she took any active part in the discussions; it appears she was still the student-observer. Burns went home from the 1901 N.F.C. determined to place her society upon a safe and permanent basis. She realized that she must first ascertain what such a basis was. That would take time. She found herself and her society involved in a snarl which had grown out of the differences arising between the Supreme Tent and the Great Camp of Michigan.

At the 1902 N.F.C., Burns was a member of the Committee on Statistics and Good of the Orders; she read a paper entitled "Woman's Work in Connection with Fraternal Beneficiary Orders". At the 1903 session, she served as a member of the Committee on Distribution. At the 1905 session, she participated in the joint meetings of the conference committees and joined in the report submitted to the Congress. At the 1906 session, she served as Chair of the Committee on Conference. She took a fairly active part in the 1908 and 1909 sessions.


Frances E. Burns

Burns was a regular attendant of the N.F.C. for more than 25 years, missing perhaps only one session in all that time. For several years, she was Secretary of the Presidents' Section, which she helped to organize. Later, she served the Section in the capacity of vice-president and then of President. In 1915, she was elected vice-president of the Congress by a close vote. She was the first woman ever elected to the office. Following the society's common practice, she should have been elected president the following year, but she was not. In 1920, the American Fraternal Congress was organized. The L.O.T.M. affiliated with it, Burns was elected vice-president, and the next year, she was elected president. Thus, she became the first woman executive of an American fraternal congress that was national in its scope.

She developed not only into one of the stalwart leaders of fraternalism, but also one of the foremost American businesswomen. In 1896, there were 23,615 benefit members, with US$21,737,500 insurance in force, plus 7,000 social members. By 1921, there were 45,775 benefit members; with US$33,760,750, and 9,688 social members. There is nothing to indicate that Burns had any comprehensive knowledge of the insurance feature of a fraternal beneficiary society when she joined the Great Hive in October, 1892, when she became the Great Lieutenant Commander in 1894, or even when she became Great Commander in 1896. It can be assumed that she was uninformed upon that important side of her society, because there were then no fraternal executives who were thoroughly vested in life insurance matters.

Burns and her society were affiliated with half a dozen world movements. She was a member of the Episcopal Church. She was a Democrat and had been a member of the Democratic State Central Committee. She was a member of the League of Women Voters, the Daughters of the American Revolution, and the Women's Auxiliary War Board in Michigan. She was vice-president of the Michigan Community Council for two years. She served as vice-president of the National Council of Women, and as Chair of the Finance Committee of the International Council of Women.


Frances E. Burns

In 1921, after a serious illness, she had her tonsils removed, which, at her age, was equivalent to a major operation. While in Washington, D.C., attending the burial of America's Unknown Soldier, she suffered a serious nervous breakdown.

Death and legacy

Frances Burns died at her home in Palmetto hotel, Detroit, Michigan, November 19, 1937; interment was at St. Louis, Michigan.

The Frances E. Burns Maccabee Home for Aged Women, in Alma, Michigan was named in her honor.


Lady-Unique-Inclination-of-the-Night

Lady-Unique-Inclination-of-the-Night was an American feminist periodical from 1976 until 1983. Founded and edited by Kay Turner, the journal primarily wrote on feminist art, history and performance with a particular focus on women's spirituality.

Turner says that the magazine's logo was inspired by Ixchel, the Mayan Moon Goddess. "Inclining towards night" in the periodical's title refers to Ixchel, in her aspect of the waning moon, going into darkness.

The magazine referred to each issue as "cycles," and according to Turner, each cycle took a lot of effort. All the covers were hand silkscreened and the first three cycles were mostly done by hand. The last cycle, which was about women's altars, was produced differently from the rest. Describing her team's process for the sixth cycle, Turner explains:

"We made fifteen-hundred individual altars and affixed them to the cover of each journal and so you lift up your little altar and then underneath it is this printed image of a very ancient Mycenaean altar."

Apart from the 1,500 unique copies of the last issue, the magazine in general took a lot of work. And so, Lady Unique only lasted for a total of six cycles.

The magazine came up along with other feminist publications during its time such as Chrysalis, HERESIES, and WomanSpirit.


Ozone Transport Commission

The Ozone Transport Commission (OTC) is a multi-state organization founded in 1991 and created under the Clean Air Act.EPA on air pollution transport issues and for developing and implementing regional solutions to the ground-level ozone problem in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, collectively called the Ozone Transport Region (OTR). OTC has no regulatory authority, but assists its members in developing model regulations for implementation at the state level. OTC also manages a regional planning organization MANE-VU (Mid-Atlantic Northeast Visibility Union), which is charged with regional multi-pollutant air quality planning.

Policy Initiatives

OTC NOX Budget Program

In 1994, the OTC adopted a Memorandum of Understandingemissions trading program for the purpose of reducing emissions of oxides of Nitrogen (NOX). This program dubbed the “OTC NOX Budget Program” set a cap for NOX emissions from nine states and the District of Columbia, which was ratcheted down in three phases, starting in 1995, 1999, and 2003, respectively. During this process a larger group of states in the Eastern United States and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) began meeting as the Ozone Transport Assessment Group (OTAG). Their work wound up being adopted by EPA as a trading program NOX trading program that covered a larger geography (22 states plus the District of Columbia) called the "NOX SIP Call" and the third phase of the OTC NOX Budget Program was incorporated into that larger trading program. This early work by the OTC is considered the precursor to the modern emissions trading program (e.g., Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR)) which reduced interstate ozone pollution in the Eastern United States

OTC Early National Low Emissions Vehicle Program

The state of California updated its Low Emissions Vehicle (LEV) Program to require stricter emissions standards beginning in 1999, which was called LEV II.Clean Air Act section 184 (c) to require that jurisdictions in the OTR adopt California's LEV program, which was allowed under Clean Air Act section 177. While the petition, was not accepted, an agreement was reached between EPA, Ozone Transport Commission (OTC) states, and the auto manufacturers to introduce new emission standards in the OTC states beginning with the 1999 model year, two years earlier than national, so called Tier 2, standards in alignment California's LEV program.

OTC Model Rules

OTC Model Rules

Another area that OTC has adopted policies to reduce ozone precursors (NOX and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) is through model rule development. The OTC has initiated three phases of model rules, each of which culminated signing of a MOU between the member jurisdictions to adopt the model rules as state regulations. The 2001 generation of model rules called for the regulation of Consumer Products, Portable Fueling Containers, Architectural and Maintenance Coatings, Solvent Cleaning, Mobile Equipment Repair and Refinishing, and Additional NOX Controls for Industrial Boilers, Cement Kilns, Stationary Reciprocating Engines, and Stationary Combustion Engines.

Fort Ward (Florida)

This article deals with Fort Ward, Florida, in the United States. For other Fort Wards, see: Fort Ward (disambiguation).

[Location of Fort Ward.]

Location of Fort Ward.

Fort Ward was a Confederate States of America fort located in Wakulla County, Florida, at the confluence of the Wakulla River and St. Marks River and named after Colonel George T. Ward, owner of Southwood Plantation, Waverly Plantation, and Clifford Place Plantation south of Tallahassee. During the American Civil War, Confederate troops placed a battery of cannons at Fort Ward.

History

The site on which Fort Ward stands was originally a camp site of Spanish explorer Pánfilo de Narváez, in 1528, when he ventured north from Tampa. Narváez saw that the area was advantageous in a geographic sense. In 1539, Hernando de Soto followed with his men.

By 1679, the Spanish governor of Florida started construction on the first fort (named Fort San Marcos de Apalache)pirates. In 1719, Spanish Captain Jose Primo de Ribera arrived to construct a second wooden fort. The fort was called San Marcos de Apalache. The wood for construction was cut at Mission San Luis de Apalachee to the north.

As a stone fort, its construction began in 1739.

The old moat at Fort Ward.

The fort was turned over to the English in 1763, half complete, as a result of the Seven Years' War. Spain regained control and ownership, by 1787, reoccupying it for 13 more years.

In 1800, a former British officer named William Augustus Bowles attempted to unify and lead 400 Creek Indians against the Spanish, eventually capturing San Marcos. A Spanish flotilla arrived some five weeks later and re-assumed control of the fort.

In 1818, General Andrew Jackson invaded the territory and took San Marcos after raids originating in Spanish Florida had a deep impact in Georgia. Two captured British citizens, Robert Christy Ambrister and Alexander George Arbuthnot, were tried and found guilty of inciting Indian raids and executed, causing a diplomatic nightmare between the United States and England.


Fort Ward (Florida)

In 1821, Florida became the property of the United States and the fort was occupied by U.S. troops. In 1824, the fort was abandoned by the U.S. and turned over to the Territory of Florida. By 1839, the fort was returned to the U.S. and a federal marine hospital was built there 18 years later, using stones from the Spanish fort. The hospital provided care for victims of yellow fever.

In 1861, the final conflict took place at San Marcos when the Confederates took the fort and renamed it Fort Ward. From 1861 to 1865, a Union squadron blockaded the mouth of the St. Marks River. The Battle of Natural Bridge eventually stopped the Union force that intended to take Fort Ward.

Marguerite Gachet

Marguerite Gachet (21 June 1869–8 November 1949) was a French woman who was painted by Vincent van Gogh in two paintings.

Life

Gachet was born in 1869 to Paul Gachet and his wife. Her younger brother was born at the family's new home in Auvers-sur-Oise. She met Van Gogh when she was nineteen.Paul Gachet for several weeks towards the end of his life. Her father was a doctor, an amateur artist and a friend of leading impressionist painters. Paul Cézanne had helped her father create an attic studio.

For some weeks, Van Gogh proposed that would he make a painting of her. He made two sketches of Gachet at the piano, and again he wrote to his brother on 26/27 June to tell him that he had started the painting. Van Gogh commented to his brother that he thought that Theo's wife, Jo, would get on well with Marguerite.

The paintings appeared in catalogues in 1928, but they were owned privately.

Van Gogh gave both of the paintings to Gachet's father who kept them. The paintings were first exhibited after they were donated by Paul Gachet to the Musée d'Orsay in Paris in 1954.

Gachet never married and died in 1949. She was buried in the Père Lachaise Cemetery. The pictures of her, along with many other valuable family paintings, were given to a museum.


Little Grand Rapids Airport

Little Grand Rapids Airport (IATA: ZGR, ICAO: CZGR) is the airport serving the First Nations communities of Little Grand Rapids and the nearby Pauingassi First Nation, Manitoba, Canada. These two communities are connected to the more populated southern areas of Manitoba by a winter road which is only operational for about two months per year. During the other 10 months, this airport is the only practical way move passengers and goods in and out of the communities. The lack of roads and small size of aircraft, typically Otters, Grand Caravans or similar, makes it relatively busy compared to the population of roughly 1,500 served by the airport.

This airport in Manitoba is operated by the Manitoba Transportation & Government Services - Northern Airports & Marine Operations.

Its NDB beacon is 280 - 4B.

Pyemotes tritici

Pyemotes tritici is a species of mite known as the grain itch mitestraw itch mite.cosmopolitan species that is found on straw, hay and stored grain. It is a parasite of small arthropods and is being investigated as a possible biological control of stored product pests. It is associated with dermatitis in humans,

Life cycle

Pyemotes tritici is ovoviviparous, this means that the embryos fully develop inside the female, emerging from the birth canal as adults. Males are born after a gestation period that is two days less than that of the females, the males help the females to emerge and copulation takes place as soon as the females are born. In fact any unmated female is unable to copulate later in life. Fewer than 10% of the offspring are male, although the proportion rises under conditions of gross overcrowding. On average, each female produces about 250 offspring, but after mating with about fifteen females, male fertility rates decline.

Ecology

Pyemotes tritici is a parasite of arthropods. The females puncture the host with her stylet, injecting a toxic venom that paralyses the host, which eventually dies.Angoumois grain moth (Sitotroga cerealella) is a pest of stored grain, laying its eggs on the seedheads in the field or on the grain in the silo. Until 1882, it was thought that Pyemotes tritici, which is sometimes found swarming over stored straw or hay, was feeding on the crop, however it turned out that the mites are carnivorous and are feeding on the larvae of the moth and other insect pests. When the mites come into contact with human skin, they attempt to feed there, causing an intense itchiness, often over the whole body surface. After about sixteen hours, blister-like vesicles erupt on the skin surface and other symptoms can include headache, joint pain, fever and nausea.

Use in biological pest control

The mite is being investigated as a potential biological pest control agent for stored product pests; its high rate of population growth is likely to exceed that of its host arthropod, and it has been found possible to mass rear it in the laboratory.

Pınar Yoldaş

Pinar Yoldas (Pınar Yoldaş, Turkish pronunciation: pɯnar joɫˈdɑʃ) is a Turkish-American architect, artist and professor at University of California San Diego.anthropocene, futurism, and feminist technoscience.

Yoldas highlights the term "speculative biology" in comparison to experimental architecture of the 1990s, as design of tissues, organs, organisms, biological systems, ecotypes and ecosystems in order to catalyze creative critical thinking. Her process merges hand drawing and sculpting with bio-engineering and digital technologies.

She is a Guggenheim fellow and a MacDowell Colony fellow.

Early life

Yoldas was born in Denizli, Turkey to an architect father and physicist mother. She had a solo painting exhibition at the age of five in Denizli Public Library, giving her the title youngest painter to have an exhibition in Turkey alongside renowned painter Bedri Baykam who had his first exhibition at the age of six. Yoldas attended Izmir Science College where she was awarded a bronze medal in the National Science Olympics organized by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey.

She received a degree in Architecture at Middle East Technical University (2002). She moved to Istanbul in 2002 to receive an MA in Visual Communication Design at Istanbul Bilgi University (2004) and an MS in Internet Technologies at Istanbul Technical University (2006).

In 2006 she moved to Los Angeles to work with Casey Reas. In 2008 she graduated from UCLA Design Media Aarts with an MFA in New Media Art.Duke University with her thesis titled Speculative Biologies: New Directions in Art in the Age of the Anthropocene.

Artistic career

Yoldas started designing organisms at UCLA. Her first designs included fictitious sexual organs and organisms that could be plugged into male or female bodies. Her practice is informed by her heterogeneous background in arts, design and sciences, and involves mediating her research as a sensory experience for non-scientists.

Art and neuroscience

Yoldas' work emphasizes the role of neuroscience in understanding artistic experience. She received a certificate in Cognitive Neuroscience at Duke University where she built the art installation "Limbique."
