Oh, Mr. Wilman!

I guess this young chemist's experiment took on the look of someone she new (maybe her teacher?). It's a delightful sunny spot and she identifies it in pencil as Example of lead chromate (Pb.Cr.O4). Lead chromate is indeed used in yellow pigments. On the other side of the page she wrote something like: "A pretty good one I think". The book's front end paper is signed by Adelaide K. Burton, Fall of 1895. There is also a partially covered bookplate that identifies Adelaide and her future husband Robert Sayles. Adelaide grew up in Rhode Island and graduated from Brown University. Her husband was prosperous in the textile industry. Adelaide served as treasurer of the Children's Museum of Boston and published a book on the museum's history.

This book is concerning the Kriya Yoga family tree I comply with and also concerning being devout to a living Master. I have found out so a lot under his assistance over the previous 16 years. The lessons and reflections that I share on EkhartYoga are simply an understanding of the depth of the Kriya Yoga method where breath, embodied awareness and dedication collaborated in greater realms of the mind.

Microscopic dispatches, received in Paris by carrier pigeons, enlarged by the magic lantern

Part of Chemistry, Developed by Facts and Principles Drawn Chiefly from the Non-Metals

1884

"Color plate depicts a man operating a magic lantern, specifically the Duboscq Megascope, to discern microscopic dispatches delivered in Paris by carrier pigeons. Homing pigeons were utilized for communication during the Siege of Paris in 1870 when Parisians were surrounded by German armies, preventing correspondence with the outer world. The pigeons carried a microfilmed dispatch which could be read upon magnification via a magic lantern projector, as pictured in this illustration.

This plate is from John Howard Appleton's (1844-1930) Chemistry, Developed by Facts and Principles Drawn Chiefly from the Non-Metals, published in 1884. Intended as an introduction to the study of chemistry, this volume contains illustrations throughout the text including color plates. Color plates have been digitized along with a selection of illustrations."

Rejected Avengers Endgame sequence reveals Robert Downey Jr sendoff you’ve never seen. Until now - hollywood

http://www.liveindiatimes.com/rejected-avengers-endgame-sequence-reveals-robert-downey-jr-sendoff-youve-never-seen-until-now-hollywood/

More than a year after its release, the design firm Exception Perception has revealed unused versions of the end credits sequence for Avengers: Endgame. Marvel fans would recall that the sequence paid special tribute to the six original stars of the franchise, Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo and Jeremy Renner.

The sequence in the film showed a brief montage of the actors’ journeys in the series, and juxtaposed their names with their signatures, while Alan Silvestri’s music played in the background. On its website, Exception Perception has written that “the title sequence had three distinct sections, the Crew, the Cast, and the ‘Hero 6’.” The description went on to explain, “It was important to everyone involved that each section should feel unique but part of a greater whole. They decided to use film footage in a progressive way, beginning with abstract light rays and becoming more distinct as the sequence goes on.”

  Perception’s Visual Effects Director Doug Appleton explained the mood in the studio as per the website, “Honestly, once the excitement died down, it was a bit intimidating. How do you end the movie that ends the story that started 22 movies ago? So, when we talked to Marvel Studios, and Kevin Feige had the idea to give this sequence a ‘curtain call’ kind of feel, everything just clicked into place.”

Also read: Robert Downey Jr stood up for Avengers cast after Marvel tried to strong-arm them and they threatened to quit

John LePore, Perception’s Chief Creative Director, said, “At the end of these films, fans aren’t starving for ‘motion design’—they just want more time with these characters. We took inspiration from the fandom in general, especially fan-made supercuts, and decided to make a sequence that celebrated the journey to get to this point.”

Also read: When Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man co-star Terrence Howard called him to repay $100M favour: ‘Never heard from him’

Avengers: Endgame concluded the decade-long arc of Downey’s Tony Stark, and saw him sacrifice his life at the end of the film to save the world and defeat Thanos.

100 Awesome Folkways LPs

Back in 2005 I had just dropped out of graduate school and returned to Edmonton, Alberta. I was waiting for the semester to start so I could begin my journey as a mathematician. I'm indebted to my friend Christopher Bateman (co-author of In Fine Style) who told me that there was a collection of Folkways Records at the University of Alberta. An entire collection?! Wow! The only other complete collection was at the Smithsonian Museum! And I had nothing to do all day (except for my string of terrible minnimum wage jobs)!

I started visiting folkwaysAlive!, the small Folkways centre (photos below), regularly and digging through their collection. Most of the knowledge about Folkways at the time was centred on their incredible collection of ethnographic recordings. However, as I began looking through the catalog I was finding all kinds of weird and amusing records. There was one titled Speach After the Removal of the Larynx and another called Sounds of the Junkyard. Even more, there were famous composers of electronic music who had published LPs on folkways. What were those doing there? It turns out that Folkways founder Moses Asch was determined to capture all "sound" and that in the pure pursuit of this philosophy several LPs of collateral damage would delight the catalog.

Some years later I had a radio show on CJSR where I played music entirely from the Folkways collection (the show was appropriately titled The Sounds of Folkways). At the same time I was trying to capitalize on my newfound knowledge and tried to pitch a book and/or column to various people titled 100 Weird and Wonderful LPs on Folkways. I wasn't successful, but in the process I had made a "list of weird Folkways LPs" and that's what I'd like to share today.

Here is my list. It's not complete. It's not a list of "the best folkways LPs." It's just a list of Folkways records I happen to like and think weird or cool. Thus, there are large omissions in categories like Blues and Ethnomusicology, which contain many of the most incredible Folkways records.

You can find music clips for most of these LPs on YouTube. This list is a decade old, so there's probably some errata and some of the catalog numbers aren't likely correct.

I hope you enjoy.

PS - I still need a copy of Speach After the Removal of the Layrnx!

PPS - I'm forward thankful to Lorna Arndt who so graciously let me hang out in the folkwaysAlive! office!

Promotion Watch ’19: Grant Thornton Admits 42 New Partners and Principals

The last month hasn’t been the greatest for Grant Thornton, as the firm gave pink slips to 230 professionals and 40 PPMDs, approximately 3.5% of its workforce, at the end of July. So GT’s leadership probably wanted to wait until the dust settled before they announced that interim CEO Brad Preber had recently handed out purple roses to 26 new partners, 16 new principals, and 39 new managing directors.

This year’s class of new GT partners and principals is the largest since 2016:

2018: 32

2017: 39

2016: 47

2015: 50

2014: 32

2013: 30

2012: 27

2011: 26

2010: 22

Let’s take a look at the Purple Rose of Chicago’s class of new PPMDs by the numbers:

35: The number of new PPMDs in advisory, the most of any service line, followed by 23 in tax, 20 in audit, and three in internal client services.

27: The number of new PPMDs who are women, or 33% of the class.

11: The number of new PPMDs in Chicago, the most of any location, followed by 10 in Washington, DC, eight in both Philadelphia and New York City, and seven in Charlotte, NC.

1: The number of new partners with the last name of Pizza.

Sensor Sweep: 9/23/2019

Comic Books (Crom the Barbarian): Who is Crom the Barbarian? Crom the Barbarian was created in 1950 by Gardner F Fox and John Giunta. The Barbarian, Crom, is a small speed bump in comic book history. Gardner F. Fox and John Giunta take direct inspiration from the Robert E. Howard, Conan pulps. They pen out their version of Conan and call him, Crom!

Fiction (DMR Books): The third of Talbot Mundy’s Roman novels, Purple Pirate was serialized in Adventure magazine from May to October of 1935 and then published in book form by Appleton-Century at the end of that year.  Set in the time of the founding of the Second Triumvirate in 43 BC, this story continues the adventures of Tros of Samothrace amid the war-torn chaos of a period where half a dozen factions fought for the control of Rome and the seas were stalked by pirate kings who harassed the Wolves of the Tiber when they could and plundered the rest of the world when they willed.

Fiction (Adventures Fantastic): Tanith Lee was born on this date, September 19, in 1947.  She passed away in 2015.  Lee wrote in a variety of genres, including fantasy, horror, and science fiction.  She was highly prolific, and many of her short stories haven’t never been collected.

Until now.  Immanion Press is collecting all of her work that hasn’t appeared in any of her collections.  In observance of her birthday, I read two stories from the collection Strindberg’s Ghost Sonata and Other Uncollected Tales.

D&D (Skulls in the Stars): Time for another edition of Old School Dungeons & Dragons! I did soooooo many of these threads on twitter, I’m kinda amazed and appalled. Still have many to catch up on here…

DDA1: Arena of Thyatis (1990), by John Nephew. This more obscure module is one I’ve had in my collection for a long time, but only finally got around to reading once I started these threads!

Ian Fleming (M Porcius): 007 is back, here at MPorcius Fiction Log. You may recall that I thought that Moonraker, the third of Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels, was recycling some of the memorable parts of Casino Royale, the first–Bond gambling against a Soviet operative who claimed to have forgotten his past due to war-induced amnesia, and then unsuccessfully chasing this villain in a car after he had kidnapped a female British agent. Let’s hope that the fourth 007 adventure, Diamonds Are Forever, first printed in 1956, has some new ideas.

Comic Books (Bleeding Cool): Earlier this year, Marvel Comics picked up the Conan license and began publishing Conan and Conan-related comic books, based on the character created by Robert E Howard, just like they used to. And started putting Conan in The Avengers, which was new. But they aren’t stopping there, they are also creating new runs of comic books based on Howard’s characters Dark Agnes, Solomon Kane, and more. Again, just like they used to.

Science Fiction (Brian Niemier): Talk about a signal grace. No sooner do I publish a post on the need for a confident, masculine Christianity willing to engage the culture than a new science fiction genre rises to the challenge. Not one, but two vocally Christian authors have stepped up to deliver something not seen since the heady days of the pulps: men’s adventure novels specifically informed by a Christian worldview.

Robert E. Howard (Howard History): While scanning through “The Eyrie,” the letters-to-the-editor pages in Weird Tales, I stumbled upon the following forgotten Howard letter. It doesn’t appear in any of the bibliographies, to the best of my knowledge, and has never been reprinted. How it has been missed for so long is anyone’s guess. The letter appears in the May 1926 issue, which hit the newsstands on April 1st, so Howard probably wrote it earlier in March.

Cinema (Black Gate): I had an open spot to take in a film I’d never seen before: a 35mm screening of the 1992 classic by Ringo Lam (Lam Ling-tung) Full Contact. Lam passed away late last year at only 63, and so Fantasia honoured him with a presentation of one of his greatest works. Written by Yin Nam, the movie’s about Jeff (Gou Fei in some translations, Ko Fei in others, played in any case by Chow Yun-Fat), a tough bouncer in Bangkok whose friend Sam Sei (Anthony Wong) went into debt to a loan shark to pay for Jeff’s mother’s burial.

Horror Fiction (Paul McNamee): Dover have reissued two hard-to-find horror collections by Joseph Payne Brennan. I’d been waiting to get a hold of THE SHAPES OF MIDNIGHT for a long time. Happy that NINE HORRORS AND A DREAM showed up, too.

These collections are a master class in writing short fiction. The stories contained in NINE HORRORS AND A DREAM are not flash fiction but with a few exceptions, they are short shorts. Brennan gets in, gets to the core of the tale, and gets out. The stories are lean and trim. The stories in THE SHAPES OF MIDNIGHT are slightly longer but still short overall.

Steampunk (Adventures Fantastic): David J. West (no relation) is a prolific writer of fantasy in a variety of subgenres.  His work ranges from horror to sword and sorcery to weird western and everything in between.  He publishes multiple books each year.  The man is making the rest of us look bad setting an example to the rest of us by showing us what pulp speed looks like. Speaking of speed, In My time of Dying is a fast-paced weird western with steampunk elements that rushes along at a breakneck pace.

Science Fiction (John C. Wright): Over the last month, there’s been a concerted effort by identity-politics zealots in science fiction publishing to erase science fiction history in regards to the contribution of one of the most well-known editors of all time, John W. Campbell, whose work with Astounding Magazine shaped the field of science fiction as we know it today. Campbellian-style fiction became the standard with greats like Arthur C. Clarke, Robert Heinlein, and Isaac Asimov, and the legacy continues to this day.

Fantasy (Swords and Stichery): Throughout Hyperborea there are pockets & fully integrated populations of Deep Ones. They walk among mankind unnoticed and unchallenged. But there are rumors of older races of fish like men and aquatic peoples with gills who do not have the taint of the Deep Ones running through their veins nor hear the song of Tulu. Atlantis faced destruction & its colonies on ‘Old Venus’ & ‘Old Mars’ were their only hope of survival. Clark Aston Smith wrote about this in the Poseidonis cycle of stories.

Westerns (Western Fictioneers): Did you know that our own Western Fictioneers blog is #1 in the Top 20 Western Fiction Blogs, Websites and Newsletters to Follow in 2019? was surfing the net, as a writer will do, looking for new and interesting information on our favorite topic, and I came across this article. This gave me an idea for a useful blog post of my own, so I present my … Top 10 Old West Blogs, Websites and Newsletters (in no particular order):

Greyhawk (Boggswood): What can we say about this world?  I imagine a place of ruin and desolation, where once prosperous towns are mere ruined piles or half flooded husks where a few poor fishermen eek out a living in the shadow of the ominous Coot. The elves and dwarves have fled (or have they?), but the great elven forest remains, and has spread eastward, engulfing the abandoned ruins of Jackport.

Gaming (Ars Ludi): What do I mean by great player? Knowing the rules? Yeah that’s important if you’re teaching a game, but “rules mastery” is definitely not what I’m talking about. Someone who makes up cool stuff? Someone who talks in funny voices or has their character do amazing things? Naw, none of that. I mean, that stuff’s fine, but that ain’t it. When I cast my baleful gaze on someone and think “that’s a great player”, it’s because I can see that, deep down, they pay attention to the balance at the table.

We here at the Othmer Library love it when we get donations from chemists donating their working library.  This well used copy of Easy Experiments of Organic Chemistry for Students’ Laboratory Work by John Howard Appleton, 1898 looks to be a text book once owned by R. E. Hicks a student at George Washington University.  It is chock full  of notations and random brown circular stains.  I’m not a chemist so I am going to say they are chemical in nature and leave it at that.
