...Christo Vladimirov Javacheff and Jeanne-Claude Denat de Guillebon are the married couple who make up the artistic duo known world-wide as Christo and Jeanne-Claude. Both born on June 13, 1935, he in Bulgaria and she in France, the couple met in Paris in 1958 when Jeanne-Claude's mother hired Christo to paint a portrait. Although Jeanne-Claude was engaged to another man, whom she eventually married, Jeanne-Claude still fell in love with Christo. She left her husband after 3 weeks of marriage to be with Christo. In 1960, the couple had a son, Cyril Christo. From then on, the couple were virtually inseparable. The only time they left one another's side was when flying so that, should there be a crash, at least one of them would survive to continue their work. Christo and Jeanne-Claude were permanently separated on November 18, 2009, after 51 years, when Jeanne-Claude passed away after suffering a brain aneurysm. She is survived not only by her husband and son, but by their works, one of which has yet to be completed. The couple first came up with the idea of the "Over The River" project in 1992. Over a period of years, the couple scrutinized 15,000 miles of river through five different states. The pair was looking for a location that would meet certain requirements. They wanted the river to have steep walls with no trees to obscure the view. They also required a railroad track to run alongside one of the river shores. It was important that the location have homes...

...God Hears Her Cry...... She sat in her room every day and night ...looking out of the window. The window was very large and had white, with wooden panes. She sighed as she watched two small magpies flying past; they looked so carefree and happy. How she longed for that freedom. Rosie’s house was a large detached property with tall, intimidating iron gates surrounding it. Her mum told her the gates were there to keep her safe, however she knew the gates were there so she didn’t escape, like last time. Rosie used to like going to school. She liked playing with her friends and dressing up. She really liked the school meals; they were much more filling than what she ate at home. Rosie had an unhappy, lifeless smile. She was physically weak and mentally broken; just one meal a day meant she didn’t have much energy throughout the school day. The teachers soon started questioning little Rosie, the 7 year old was frightened of what her parents might do if she said anything. Out of fear, she just stayed silent; her teacher could see emptiness in her eyes. Mrs Pebble knew something was wrong. Rosie would play with her friends , but had a tendency to wander around alone staring into space. When Mrs Pebble tried to speak to Rosie she never replied. It wasn’t until one day, when Rosie arrived at school wearing muddy, wet clothes and with tears running down her scarlet red face that Mrs Pebble had a reason to be seriously concerned. She sought advice from the child support officer at...

...Innovation ——Underground Auto-parking Building Every day, there are many students who go to UMAC by riding their motorbikes. They may face a very big problem that there is lack of space for them to park their motorbikes. Since they always arrive to UMAC and it is almost time when classes are going to start, they might have to park their motorbikes in some places that are illegal for parking, or they just park their motorbikes behind the other motorbikes in a hurry that will block them when the others want to leave, that is the reason why you always see people have to move the other‘s motorbikes before they ride their own motorbikes to leave, and it is quite a hard task for some girls to move the others' heavy motorbikes. In order to prevent the situation that the messy parking habits bother the others and lead to penalties for parking illegally, we suggest building a new underground motorbikes park which is with high-technology in order to solve the problem and also make the most use of space. It will help our students to park their motorbikes in a suitable space automatically. The new motorbike park is time-saving, space-saving and convenient to the students. Having this new motorbike park, students can feel relieved as they do not need to worry about finding available parking places, do not need to remember the places they have once parked their motorbikes and their motorbikes can be stored safely. You may think the new motorbike park is just the same traditional one...

...Jennifer Flake Mrs. Kathy Marks English 10 9 February 2010 Narrow is the Gate “If I could only make it through middle school…” I thought to myself as I tossed my book bag onto the couch. The overload of school, boys, and drama made me wonder how I made it from day to day. My sixth grade year had been a catastrophe so far. At lease once a day, I thought about where my parents were. My grandmother showed love for me in place of them. Although there were many people in my life who loved me, the thought of my parents still nagged at the back of my mind. “What could I have done wrong to be left by the people who brought me into this world? Was it my looks or my personality?” These thoughts were always sitting in the back of my conscience. Sometimes, I would lie in bed at night, unable to sleep, and I would feel this overwhelming sense of rejection. On most days, I felt as if the gates of my life were closing rapidly in my face. Growing up, my grandmother was always my role model, but I never imagined I would be living with her. My parents decided to live in sin rather than work towards the gates of Heaven. They were driven by rebellion and deceit every day, and the responsibility of taking care of their only child just wasn’t a priority to either one of them. As I tossed and turned in bed, I wondered what the talk of the lunch table would be the next day. I always seemed to be the center of attention in a negative way. I was often referred to as the “new girl” or the “loner...

...Horse Barn Working on the horse farm has to be the most memorable part of my life. Surrounded by fresh air, wide-open space, and peaceful, natural sounds, I cherished every minute spent with the horses. The hot, humid summers were always the laziest parts of life on the farm. Rising early in the damp morning, I tried to get outside and start my daily chores before the inevitable heat struck the air. Breathing the crisp, morning air, winding through the maze of wagging tails and drooling mouths toward the sliding barn door, passed through a sense of importance in my life. At the gates, anxious to get their breakfast after a long, cool night in the fields, the impatient horses pawed and neighed, telling me to hurry my step. The beautiful, bay quarter horse, Impressive, was always at the head of the pack. King of the group, he was also the trusty, old horse that I knew and loved. Unlatching the gate, I allow Impressive to walk through on his own accord and trot off to his stall, awaiting the grain and hay he knows will soon come. The rest of the pack is brought in one by one and placed safely into their spacious, clean and, for the meantime, cool stalls. Perfect, Taffy, Special, Max, Arbitrator, Melvin, Rupert, and more, all having their own turn, all knowing their place in the well-established pecking order. Feeding time is always filled with commotion and seemingly unending, impatient screams. The average outsider would have guessed that the fat, robust horses hadn't been...

...‘The Fiftieth Gate’ successfully projects how memory gives history an emotional context. Baker keenly represents this within his memoir through consistent motifs. The most predominant feature is conveyed with the textual layout; the 50 gates. This circulates the idealisms of ‘Jewish Mysticism’ and creates a link to images of gates being unlocked. This unveils a truly compelling and unexpected insight. This is that, the past can hinder a blessing or curse as contrasted in the prologue: “The darkness or the light” symbolic for the juxtaposing outcomes. Such turbulent emotions are relevant in the memoir as history triggers memory but can encourage perhaps painful recollections. For example, Genia: “ruins, ruins” contemplating the atrocities of the Holocaust and “what I could have been if I had your life”. These unexpected and compelling insights of positive and negative portrayals of history and memory in terms of emotions are clear on the September 11 site. Memory giving history emotional context is represented in terms of hope from Lisa Lefler- a World Trade Center survivor “I have found one thing to help me get through day by day. I have been telling my story to anyone who wants to hear it.” Thus being optimistic in the most tragic times of humanity unlike Genia who wishes to hide. Conclusively supporting how Baker’s masterful work should definitely be part of your exhibition. When ‘Re-viewing the past’ it is critical to be observant of differing versions of the truth. Baker...

...On this date, after court was postponed Mr. Garvie Ivey spoke with the Visiting Angels employees. Ms. Rene Cain owner of the franchise did the majority of the talking. She stated that upon admission to Visiting Angels services Mr. Bearid was threatening Ms. Johnson if she did not get him out of the NH. Ms. Cain spoke with Mr. Beaird and explained that Visiting Angels was willing to assist with his care but only if no guns were in the home. Mr. Joey Beaid, son removed the guns and service with Visiting Angels started. Once service was in place, Mr. Beaird began wanting Mrs. Beaird home. Ms. Cain discussed the price would increase because Mrs. Beaird would be a two person assist due to her being non weight bearing. Mr. Beaird stated he did not care what the cost he wanted his wife home. Once she was home, Mr. Bearid refused to let caregivers give Ms. Beaird her Adavan and he would not allow them feed her healthy dinner's only banana or pineapple sandwiches. The caregiver stated this was bad for Ms. Beaird because she suffers from constipation. He wanted her in bed with him instead of her hospital bed. Anytime the caregivers would try to explain anything to Mr. Beaird he would remind them he was the boss of the house and they worked for him. Mr. Beaird refused to take his medication and would not allow sitters to change wounds except 1x daily. One-day sitter Michelle was with Mr. Beaird, he called his grandson and got the safe combination. When he opened the safe, he showed Michelle...

...Week 1/Reading Art/Understanding Iconography Leanne Diliberto Art/101 12/22/2013 Lynn Wocell Understanding Iconography In the world of art, there are four roles of an artist. They can use their artwork to help us see the world in new and innovative ways. An artist can also use their artwork to create a visual record of their specific time and place. Another role of an artist is to make functional objects and structures more pleasurable by imbuing them with beauty and meaning. Finally the fourth role of an artist is to give form to the immaterial ideas and feelings. The first piece of artwork I chose is a piece created by Christo and Jeanne-Claude called “The Gates”. This artwork is beautiful and amazingly done. It is a great example of how an artist can use their artwork to help us see the world in new and innovative ways. Christo and Jeanne-Claude used their artwork to bring two different cultures together in one place for all to see. The artwork made Central Park even more beautiful and for those who were lucky enough to see this artwork, it is something they will never forget. I like the idea of using real objects to create art. Most people think art is simply drawn or painted and they don't realize that art can be so much more than just something on paper or on a wall. Using objects to create art is so interesting and creative. The second piece of artwork I chose is Claude Monet's “Gare Saint Lazare. Monet takes the role of an artist who...

...Christo and Jeanne-Claude Origins • Christo (born Christo Vladimirov Javacheff, Bulgarian: Христо Явашев, June 13, 1935) and Jeanne-Claude (born Jeanne-Claude Denat de Guillebon, June 13, 1935 – November 18, 2009) were a married couple who created massive and environmental works of art. • They married over objections from Jeanne Claude’s family(they became their supporters later), forming one of the most durable and creative partnerships in the history of art. • Christo studied art at the Sofia Academy from 1953 to 1956, and went to Prague, Czechoslovakia (now Czech Republic) until 1957, when he left for the West by bribing a railway official and stowing away with several other individuals on-board a train transporting medicine and medical supplies to Austria. • She was described as "extroverted" and with natural organizational abilities. Her hair was dyed red and she smoked cigarettes, and tried to quit many times until her weight would balloon. She did not enjoy cooking.[5] She took responsibility for overseeing work crews and for raising funds.[2] She said she became an artist out of love for Christo (if he'd been a dentist, she said she'd have become a dentist • Their works were credited to just "Christo" until 1994 when the outdoor works and large indoor installations were retroactively credited to "Christo and Jeanne-Claude • They flew in separate planes: in case one crashed, the other could continue their work.

...of this short piece by Kafka is one that made Derrida pose the question: Is the man trying to gain admittance into the law or into a place where law exists? The phrase, ‘Before the Law’ is circumstantially significant with respect to the situations and conditions of common man before the advent of law. Throughout the story, Kafka tries to induce into the reader, a sense of empathy for the man standing before the law, the gates of which are guarded by a keeper, whose hands in turn are vested with the power to grant or prohibit one’s entry into the law. How does such immense power come to be concentrated in the hands of a mere gatekeeper? If one draws parallels between the gatekeeper and the law, this theme can be expanded to incorporate questions regarding the immensity of the power of law. Simply speaking, the obedience of law is the reason for its authoritative power. This can be inferred from an ironical situation depicted in the story, when the gatekeeper, who does not permit the man entry into the law till his dying day, declares to him that the gates were for him and only him to enter. By way of explanation, the irony of the situation stems from the fact that the man who was meant to and could have gained access to the law, fails to do so due to the power of the gatekeeper, who assumes the same as a result of the man’s bemoaning but unquestioning obedience. The magnitude of the power in the hands of the gatekeeper potentially tails a debate on the vulnerability to corruption...
