Fils NiobƩ par James Pradier / Le Louvre
Orgueilleuse comme son pĆØre Tantale fils de Zeus, NiobĆ©, reine de ThĆØbes par son Ć©poux Amphion, se vanta devant qui voulait lāentendre de sa fĆ©conditĆ© et de la beautĆ© de ses enfants. AveuglĆ©e par la fiertĆ©, elle se moqua ouvertement de LĆ©to, qui nāavait donnĆ© le jour quāĆ ArtĆ©mis et Apollon. CāĆ©tait lĆ sāattaquer aux dieux, et la malheureuse NiobĆ© lāapprit Ć ses dĆ©pens. IndignĆ©s dāune telle prĆ©somption, les deux enfants de LĆ©to tuĆØrent ceux de NiobĆ© Ć coups de flĆØches ; seuls une fille et un garƧon Ć©chappĆØrent au massacre ā HomĆØre ignore cette version de la lĆ©gende ā mais sa frayeur fut telle quāelle conserva toute sa vie un teint dāune pĆ¢leur mortelle. Selon HomĆØre toujours, elle revint dans son pays, oĆ¹ les dieux la mĆ©tamorphosĆØrent en pierre.
Entendant les cris de ses enfants agonisants, NiobĆ© sortit de son palais, et Ć lāhorrible spectacle de tous les corps Ć©tendus et rĆ¢lants, elle fut comme pĆ©trifiĆ©e. Pris de pitiĆ©, Zeus la changea en rocher et la plaƧa sur le mont Sipyle, dāoĆ¹ coulĆØrent ses larmes sous la forme dāune source. Pendant neuf jours, les corps restĆØrent sans sĆ©pulture. Au dixiĆØme jour selon lāIliade, les dieux sāapaisĆØrent et enterrĆØrent eux-mĆŖmes les enfants de NiobĆ©. Selon d'autres versions, NiobĆ© rĆ©ussit Ć protĆ©ger la derniĆØre de ses filles, Chloris.
āLife is perpetually creative because it contains in itself that surplus which ever overflows the boundaries of the immediate time and space, restlessly pursuing its adventure of expression in the varied forms of self-realization.ā
(Rabindranath Tagore - Indian Poet, Won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1913, 1861-1941)

they didn't have a 6th 14" hoop at both michael's and the one joann's i went to and unfortunately i don't have time to scour southeast michigan for one hoop, so we're sticking with 5 hoops for now and then keep these studies going for a while.
Nelson Mandela once said that, āEducation is the most powerful weapons which you can use to change the world.ā
The Right To Education: A Selection of Posters from the Poster for Tomorrow organization is on view at the Stambaugh Studio Theatre Gallery from February 27āMarch 30, 2012 at Ohio Northern University. The exhibit showcases about 100 posters, representing several countries.
Every year, Poster for Tomorrow chooses a basic human right to draw attention to. Then, they invite the global design community to make posters on the theme that are exhibited around the world on International Human Rights Day, December 10th.
Ohio Northern is only one of two sites in the United States to host this international poster exhibit.
The competition was judged in two phases by a preselection committee and an international jury. During the first jury session, ONU graphic design professor Brit Rowe was selected to take part in the jurying process. āWe short-listed the 3,000 entries to about 100,ā said Rowe.
Poster for Tomorrow chose to fight for the right to education for all as they believe that education gives people across the whole world the chance to break the cycle of poverty; to live in a more equal world, without discrimination, where everybody has the same chance to learn the same skills and enjoy the same success. And that makes it the perfect subject for the design community to address.
Incredibly 121 million children worldwide are not in primary school, despite universal primary education being a right guaranteed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and being Goal 2 of the UN Millennium Development Goals. Illiteracy rates are staggeringly high even in countries where a childās right to education is guaranteed.
According to the National Adult Literacy Survey, 42 million adult Americans canāt read (and current estimates have the number of functionally illiterate adults in the United States increasing by approximately 2,500,000 persons each year). In France illiteracy has become a ācause nationaleā with 3.1 million people unable to read, write or count. The rate of illiteracy in the United Kingdom is unacceptably high according to Parliament.
In addition to the poster competition, this year, for the first time, Poster for Tomorrow organized a series of workshops across Africa to give young African designers the chance to work with some of the leading designers in the world. Poster for Tomorrow hosted workshops in Burkina Faso, Ghana, Guinea, Kenya, Mali, Morocco, South Africa, Tunisia and Zimbabwe.
Poster for Tomorrow, in association with 4Tomorrow Association, is an independent, international, non-profit organization whose goal is to encourage people, both in and outside the design profession, to create posters to stimulate debate on issues that affect the global community.
For the last two years, Poster for Tomorrow has focused on a competition that has addressed the right to freedom of expression and fought for the universal abolition of the death penalty.
