Part 8 - The Fountain of Knowledge.
So, I placed myself in the position of a time traveler .
Here was a feeling of déjà vu.
I knew I had been here before, but it was never like this.
This was a derelict ruin, where once, as a child I had clambered the walls and run in the dried up beds of the pool, too small to reach up to the statues.
Yet now I was amazed.
The water had returned and a colossal fountain exuded forth.
Here was knowledge in extreme.
This had to result from a Fountain of Knowledge.
But sadly as the day began to end, and it was with a heavy heart that I left Perseus, astride Pegasus, in prosecution of Poseidon’s sea monster, as it pursued Andromeda.
At the end of our Forces topic the children wrote everything they remembered on post-it-notes and posted them on the board.

When we view compensation in service sectors vs. manufacturing, we see that what really makes a difference in the rate of wage growth is the "factor intensity" of the work. In both manufacturing and services, when knowledge is the most important input, pay has risen fastest. Pay for workers rose more slowly when the skill levels required were lower or where the most important factor was capital investment.

The "corridors" in the library made by the shelves are really narrow. Not to mention frightening. There seems to be light at the end of this tunnel though.

Message posted on behalf of Maeve Strom and the ES team:
For those who have gotten wind of current defamation and untruthful claims against *ES* and our pose store in copying poses from a rival pose store we filed a DMCA giving us the right to show all evidence of our creations upload dates etc etc filing a DMCA (which is a proper legal channel for any content theft..not just copyright =p covered under the act of the DMCA) in showing just the opposite..that the accusers have copied poses from *ES*.
The reason Linden Lab has this process is to hold providers liable for creations unique to individuals and items they create in SL. Just like skins or clothes which are not copyrighted in most cases.
The Blog below is written by an SL member who understands what DMCA's are. It further explains the DMCA process and issues we have gone through in our name being defamed. We urge you to read. Should anyone have questions you may feel free to IM us in-world or drop us a flickrmail.

My knowledge of F1 cars is literally zero but thanks to a quick Google this unlicensed Yatming model is supposedly based on a Ferrari 312 B3 which were raced in the mid 1970's. Not usually the kind of thing I collect or indeed post on here but it was included in a recent 20 vehicle set Ebay win and I am now trying to get more accurate figures for my collection numbers.

Even though I read a lot (and forget most of the details). Before retiring in 2005 my job as a librarian was to catalog books and serials in a big academic library (FSU). Sometimes I would say that the flood of new and rehashed knowledge we handled kept reminding me of how much more ignorant I and every other individual was becoming, compared to the growing total of knowledge.

Rho Fiera Expo Milano 2015
Theme: Well of Knowledge: Experienced Future
The Lithuanian Pavilion was designed by a group of young architects from Kaunas (UAB "JAS"). Inspired by minimalist architecture, it is composed of 2 cubic buildings joined by a series of interconnecting walkways, covering a total of 1,147 square meters. In its essence the design brings to mind the image a set of scales (the title of the pavilion is “Balansas”) and is intended to represent the balance between tradition and innovation, both key characteristics of the country’s agri-food sector.
Lithuania contributes to the theme of Expo 2015 both as a country with a rich agricultural traditions, and as a country focused on developing innovative technologies for industrial food production. It is these characteristics which are helping it to carve out a prominent position amongst the countries of "New Europe."
