A Storm in the Rocky Mountains, Mt. Rosalie
1866
Albert Bierstadt (American, 1830-1902)
Oil on canvas, 83 x 142 1/4in.
In 1863, Albert Bierstadt made an arduous expedition to Colorado in order to gather studies of the region for this monumental painting, executed three years later in his New York studio. For the final canvas, he exercised artistic license—rearranging some landmarks and exaggerating the scale of others—to maximize the visual interest of this Rocky Mountain landscape. The picture toured the country on a yearlong exhibition and thrilled audiences with its dual effects of sublime grandeur and reportorial detail. Soaring peaks, expansive valleys, and turbulent weather conditions create a dramatic backdrop for the meticulously detailed flora and a Native American hunting scene in the foreground. Mt. Rosalie (now Mt. Evans) appears in spotlight within a ring of dark clouds in the upper left corner of the composition. Bierstadt established his artistic reputation with "Great Pictures" of the American West that embodied the national agenda of expansionism known as Manifest Destiny.

How many topics in physics are contained in a simple rainbow produced on the wall (and toilet) by sun shining through a plastic privacy screen?
Well...the light from the sun is composed of many different wavelengths...the distribution of which is dependent on the temperature of the star - which ours is centered on the the yellow. When the the light encounters an optically dense medium (glass or plastic in this case), the light is absorbed by the molecules and passed from molecule to molecule, the probability of which an absorption and emission occurs is described by Feynman's QED. The principle of least action (from D'Alembert and Lagrangian mechanics) finds the maximum probability amplitude, and hence the interaction that occurs, or the direction the light is refracted. The path of light through the medium is dependent on the wavelength and frequency of the light. One can back up to PAM Dirac's relativistic quantum mechanics, ingeniously melded Schrodinger's wave equation and/or Heisenberg's Matrix mechanics with Einstein's relativity, which determined that the only certainty in the universe is the speed of light. Everything else including Newton's fixed stars and time...TIME itself are mutable to make the speed of light constant in every situation. Dirac faced with the actual energy of a particle being the square root of the rest mass and its motion, devised a Hamiltonian that required matricies, later interpreted by Pauli as spin states of particles. Schoedinger and Heisenberg following Bohr's amazing leap of quantized orbits to describe Plancks description of light as quanta....actually they were named by Einstein to describe the photoelectric effect....but Planck needed the quantized description of light to explain the ultraviolet disaster of Rayleigh. Planck was working for the electric company to maximize the light output of municipal utilities at the least cost.... TBC

Project Description: New City Design Group, in partnership with developer FMW Real Estate, set out to create a new typology in student housing while maximizing the potential of an underdeveloped site. Combining a rarely used parking exception requiring no on-site parking in conjunction with the close proximity to NCSU, 2604 Hillsborough is a pedestrian centric boutique student housing development.
Density is concentrated at the street level where a coffee shop activates the existing sidewalk with oversized glass doors opening to an outdoor seating area. The resident entry is secured with keyed access which opens to outdoor circulation and the stair/elevator core. A sunken courtyard at the rear of the site serves as a buffer to the adjacent residential area while providing an intimate outdoor amenity space for residents in this bustling urban environment.
A clean, modern material palate of stucco and cement panel siding help articulate the four story exterior elevation. At street level, pedestrian scale is maintained by the use of a flat aluminum canopy which provides shade and shelter at main entrances and outdoor seating areas.
Jury Comments:
•Great new addition to the street and creation of a new typology
•Respects neighbors in scale and buffering
•New use of materials for Hillsborough Street
•Guides the transformation of Hillsborough Street
•Sets a tone for type and size of product that will revitalize Hillsborough Street while also respecting the adjacent neighborhood.
•Great precedent for student housing typology
•Building is trying to be modern, and looks different from other recent multifamily development, and while execution isn’t perfect the conceptual stance is headed in the right direction

Arrived back on Nov 8th and is still painted in AC Express feeder colours and registered to EVAS of Gander NL and not flown since, pulled outside in the last month or so. Supposedly to be leased to CMA who have taken over the regional BC UPS freighter contract from defunct Skylink.
Delivered to Mesa Airlines as N162ZV operating for US Airways Express and sold to EVAS in Aug 2011, I am not sure when it was converted to freighter

West Point Systems Engineering Capstone: Cadets Design Program to Project Future Army Production Capabilities - April 2015
Corpus Christi Army Depot Commander, COL Garner Pogue, thanked West Point Department of Systems Engineering Cadets David Jaye, Stephen Kerns, and Nathaniel Green for designing an innovative program to maximize UH-60 main rotor blade production as part of the continuing partnership between the depot and West Point - The U.S. Military Academy. The Cadets will graduate in May and receive their commissions as Second Lieutenants in the Army. COL Pogue presented Army Achievement Medals to the cadets and shared valuable advice for their future careers. "Throughout your career, you should never miss an opportunity to recognize a deserving soldier for excellence."
