A new session of Pangaea geology field training moved to Lofoten, Norway, to scout for new traverses for the Pangaea analogue complement.
The team, consisting of planetary geologists and training experts, is preparing space farers for lunar exploration.
Lofoten shares many geological features with lunar highlands, such as the Apollo 16 landing site, making it a perfect site to train astronauts on lunar geology.
Pangaea instructors Matteo Massironi , Riccardo Pozzobon, and Fransceco Sauro, as well as petrology professor and local expert Kåre Kullerud are guiding ESA astronaut Matthias Maurer through interesting geological sites in the Nusfjord, an area containing primitive crust rock formations, including anorthosites, which are known to be typical lunar highland rocks.
The Pangaea course is designed to provide European astronauts with introductory and practical knowledge of Earth and planetary geology to prepare them to become effective partners of planetary scientists and engineers in designing the next exploration missions.
The course also aims to give astronauts a solid knowledge in the geology of the Solar System from leading European scientists.

The Montana State University Historic District (MSU Historic District) is eligible for the National Register of Historic Places at the statewide level under Criterion A in the area of Education and Agriculture and at the local level in the area of Community Planning and Development. Under the provisions of the 1862 Morrill Act, Montana State University (MSU) provided a high standard of education in agriculture and the mechanical arts as Montanas land-grant institution during its first 75 years, while also extending beyond its mandated subjects into the physical sciences, arts and humanities. Through the provisions of the 1887 Hatch Act and the 1914 Smith-Lever Act, MSU also served Montanas rural communities through the public dissemination of applied agricultural research completed by the Agricultural Experiment Station and practical knowledge on agriculture and home economics compiled through the Agricultural Extension Service. At the local level, MSU had an immeasurable impact on its host city of Bozeman, both in terms of its physical growth and the development of its socio-economic and cultural character. Furthermore, the MSU Historic District is also eligible for listing at the statewide level under Criterion C in the area of Architecture. As a collection of free-standing, high-style buildings designed by many of Montanas leading architects, the MSU Historic District is matched only by Montanas other institutions of higher learning. The district also includes a range of historically significant Victorian, Revivalist, and Modernist styles beginning with the Collegiate Gothic Montana Hall (1896-1898) and extending though the 1967 Roskie Hall, an eleven-story dormitory designed in the futurist Exaggerated Modern (or Googie) style.

The Royal Agricultural Society of England (RASE) were founded in 1838 as the English Agricultural Society to “encourage and promote technical innovation and communicate practical knowledge of value to farmers”. The RASE were granted a Royal Charter in 1840 and in 1845 founded the Royal Agricultural College. In 1973, they also established the Rare Breeds Survival Trust. The RASE held their first Royal Show in 1839 and thereafter annually until these were discontinued in 2009.
Today, the RASE operate as a UK Registered Charity whose core roles are in the transfer of agricultural scientific knowledge, technology and best-practise to the farming industry and rural communities.
This badge would have been worn by a Local Governor to denote their status when attending council or other meetings of the RASE. Executive management of the RASE was vested in the President and the Council Members. Governors had no executive powers in the running of the RASE except the right to vote for a President, Vice-President, Trustees and Council Members of the RASE at their annual general meetings, the same voting rights extended to ordinary members also. Governors paid an annual subscription or a once-off Life Member subscription for the privilege. A separate badge would have been issued annually upon full payment of the subscription, hence they carry their year of issue.

A new session of Pangaea geology field training moved to Lofoten, Norway, to scout for new traverses for the Pangaea analogue complement.
The team, consisting of planetary geologists and training experts, is preparing space farers for lunar exploration.
Lofoten shares many geological features with lunar highlands, such as the Apollo 16 landing site, making it a perfect site to train astronauts on lunar geology.
Pangaea instructors Matteo Massironi , Riccardo Pozzobon, and Fransceco Sauro, as well as petrology professor and local expert Kåre Kullerud are guiding ESA astronaut Matthias Maurer through interesting geological sites in the Nusfjord, an area containing primitive crust rock formations, including anorthosites, which are known to be typical lunar highland rocks.
The Pangaea course is designed to provide European astronauts with introductory and practical knowledge of Earth and planetary geology to prepare them to become effective partners of planetary scientists and engineers in designing the next exploration missions.
The course also aims to give astronauts a solid knowledge in the geology of the Solar System from leading European scientists.

There is a grave in the churchyard of St. John the Baptist’s church in Pinner that stands apart – or rather above – from the rest. A stone, triangular monument protrudes out from the ground, and thrust through its centre is a single coffin, inscribed on either end to the man and woman the monument is dedicated to: William Loudon, and his wife, Agnes Loudon.
A number of stories surround this odd, in some ways occult, monument. The most intriguing is the one told by Charles Harper in 1902, suggesting that the coffin hangs because it was decreed by the church that William Loudon would only retain his property so long as he remained ‘above ground.’
No doubt having meant that the property would be retained so long as Loudon still lived, the legend would suggest that Loudon’s son, in his burgeoning career as a landscaper and cemetery designer, found a clever workaround. The mysterious words cast into the monument’s iron work – ‘I byde my time’ – might also suggest a certain the truth of this tale.
Others, however, suggest a more mundane – though in some ways no less interesting – narrative: that the coffin is a sign of the social climbing which was prevalent in nineteenth century Pinner. This tale would have the monument designed to show, literally and figuratively, that William Loudon, and later his wife, were above the rest in the churchyard, both living and dead – and perhaps closer to God also.
In this, even if the monument isn’t an artefact of one son’s attempt to outsmart the church, as a physical symbol of the Loudon family’s status and a reminder of the socio-political games that took place some two hundred years ago in Pinner, it’s interesting nonetheless.
However, the monument also has significance as the first foray into landscaping by someone who would, eventually, be made famous for it – a man by the name of John Claudius Loudon, the son of the two the landmark is dedicated to. Loudon, born in 1783 in Scotland, developed his skills in landscaping thanks to his father’s employment as a farmer – gaining for himself a practical knowledge of plants and farming.
It was this work alongside his father that brought the family to Pinner, to the Woodhall Farm in 1806, where the two experimented with ‘Scotch’ farming, hoping to prove to the wider public how effective this method was. However, his father died not long after in 1809, leading to the erection of the monument that we started with, and to Loudon’s departure from Pinner – and from his mother, who would remain in Pinner until her death in 1841.
In the years that followed, Loudon went on to develop the Victorian ornamental cemetery, in the process challenging and changing the popular ideas about them. Loudon vehemently opposed the way that cemeteries in the early nineteenth century were styled – arguing that cemeteries should never be mistaken for a park or country residence as they often were; that cemeteries should rather be a combination of moods, and notably of both architecture and landscape to ensure cemeteries would be unmistakably distinctive.
It could be seen, then, that the style of so many cemeteries today is owed to John Loudon and, in this, Pinner and the floating coffin that played a role in starting this career – a career that left cemeteries, and in turn our interaction with the dead and passed, changed profoundly. With this in mind, Pinner’s floating coffin, as much as it is the site of an intriguing local tale and all the myths and rumours that inevitably come with such tales, is also a reminder of the textuality that our past inhabits and which so often goes unnoticed.
But whether as the focal point of an interesting local story, a relic of the social ladder climbing of the nineteenth century, or as the first work of a man who would redefine popular ideas about the dead and their keeping, it’s safe to say that, should the weather be warm and you find yourself in the Pinner area, the odd and yet deeply historical landmark of the floating coffin would most definitely be worth a visit.

My 7th cousin, 3 times removed
[CCA: pioneer Ralph Earle, my 9xg-grandfather. 6th-great-grandson of pioneer Ralph Earle, thus we are 7th cousins, 3 times removed.]
CHARLES W. EARLE, A. M., M. D.
Source: Album of Genealogy and Biography, Cook County, Illinois with Portraits 3rd. ed. revised and extended (Chicago: Calumet Book & Engraving Co., 1895), pp. 515-519
CHARLES WARRINGTON EARLE, A. M., M. D., the subject of this sketch, was born in the State of Vermont, and was a descendant of Ralph Earle and his wife Joan, who came from Exeter, England, and settled at Portsmouth, Rhode Island, probably in 1634, and became the progenitors of the numerous Earle family of America, which is now represented in every State and Territory in the Union. The genealogy of the family shows that many descendants of Ralph Earle have been especially prominent in the different professions and occupations.
Moses L. Earle, the father of Charles W., resided at Westford, Vermont, where the son was born on the 2d of April, 1845. Nine years later, the family, consisting of the parents and a son and daughter, removed to Lake County, Illinois, where they settled on a farm. There they experienced the usual hardships of farmers in this portion of the West at that time. In the warm season the labor of carrying on the farm was attended to, and in the colder portion of the year the children attended school.
Charles Earle's life did not vary from that of the others until he was sixteen years of age, when the War of the Rebellion began, and he, a strong, robust boy, considered that his country demanded his service in her hour of need, and hastened to enlist in the Fifteenth Illinois Infantry, which was mustered into the service of the United States in the summer of 1861. The regiment was enlisted for a period of three months, but on reaching Freeport it was announced that the full quota of three-months men had been recruited. The alternative of discharge or of remaining in the three-years service remained. Young Earle and his companions preferred to enlist, and in a short time found themselves at the front, operating with Gen. Fremont in Missouri. In the fall of 1861, young Earle was disabled while assisting to unload a transport on the Missouri River, and was discharged from the service on account of disability. Returning home, he remained there until his recovery, and then, in deference to his father's wishes, went to Burlington, Wisconsin, and attended the academy there until the spring of 1862. He then responded to President Lincoln's call for three hundred thousand volunteers and became a member of the Ninety-sixth Regiment Illinois Infantry. This regiment was camped at Rockford, Illinois, until the demonstrations of the Confederate General, John Morgan, began to threaten the cities on the Ohio River, when it was sent south and joined the command of Gen. Gordon Granger. In the spring of 1863 they first saw active service with Gen. Rosecrans in Tennessee.
Soon after his re-enlistment young Earle was made Orderly-Sergeant, and when the regiment was at Franklin, Tennessee, he was promoted to the Second Lieutenancy of his company. He commanded his company at Chickamauga and was twice slightly wounded. His conduct on the field of battle received special commendation from his regimental commander. In this battle his company went in forty-five men strong and came out with ten, several of whom, including himself, were slightly wounded.
Several years after the war, Col. George Hicks delivered an address at Kingston, Jamaica, relative to the services of the Ninety-sixth Regiment, in which he said: "I found that I had now only a very few men with me and I should have thought that I had wholly strayed from my regiment, were it not that I had with me the colors of the regiment, together with the commander of the color company — the intrepid boy-Lieutenant, lion-hearted, fearless, unflinching Charlie Earle, whose name must be inscribed high among the highest on the roll of Chickamauga heroes.''
On the following day, September 22, Lieut. Earle, with the remnant of his company, was ordered to reinforce the pickets on the summit of Missionary Ridge, and to remain in the position to which they were assigned until relieved by proper authority. Their position was greatly exposed, and through the cowardice of the staff officer, who failed to relieve them at the proper time, they were captured by the enemy.
On the night of October 1, they passed inside the gates of Libby Prison, where Lieut. Earle found himself a fellow-prisoner with Gen. Neal Dow, of Maine, Chaplain McCabe, fourteen Colonels, thirty-five Lieutenant-Colonels, thirty-nine Majors, more than three hundred Captains and about seven hundred and fifty Lieutenants. He remained in Libby till the 9th of February, 1864, when he escaped, at the time of the famous delivery planned by Col. Thomas E. Rose, of the Seventy-seventh Pennsylvania Infantry. Lieut. Earle and his particular friend, Capt. Charles E. Rowan, were informed of the project to escape soon after the tunnel was begun, and assisted in constructing it. The experiences incident to its construction and their subsequent escape from prison were the subject of a pamphlet published by Dr. Earle some years ago, in which he set forth in graphic manner the story of their adventures. After six days and nights of peril, exposed to the greatest hardships, they saw a squad of cavalry a hundred yards in advance which they recognized as Federal soldiers and knew they were safe. What followed is best expressed in the writer's words. He says:
"It is impossible to express in appropriate words our feelings at that time; indeed, I doubt ability to do so. No words of mine could form a fitting peroration to that event, commencing at the terrible battle of Chickamauga— a battle than which none could be more bravely fought, in which scores of my young friends went down, school-mates and neighbors—and ending with an escape from military prison, the anxiety and solicitude of that picket duty, the thousand-mile trip to Confederate prison, the joys and sorrows, the hopes and disappointments, the waitings and watchings while incarcerated, and the days and nights of peril and sufferings and cold and hunger, the swamps and briar thickets, the anticipation of success, and the despair at the thought of recapture; all this, and finally freedom and home and friends—what words can express it all?
"We came into our lines a few miles from Williamsburgh. Some of the escaped officers reached our lines the third day out from Richmond, and Gen. Butler, who was at that time commanding Fortress Monroe, sent out, on alternate days, the Eleventh Pennsylvania Cavalry and the First New York Rifles to drive back the enemy, and to patrol the country with tall guidons to attract the notice of the escaping prisoners. The First New York Rifles were our deliverers. No one can describe the kindness shown to us by this body of men. Every attention was showered upon us. We were banqueted at Company A's head-quarters, and feted at Company B's, and banqueted again at Company C's, and so on.
"As soon as possible we reported at Washington. Every paper was full of the escape from Libby. Fifty-five of one hundred and nine reached our lines; the others were recaptured. We were ordered to rejoin our respective regiments, permission being given to delay reporting for thirty days."
Returning to his regiment, Lieut. Earle was made First Lieutenant, and began the Atlanta campaign with his former companions in arms. He did not remain long with them, however. Immediately following the battle of Resaca, he was ordered to take command of a company whose conduct had never been satisfactory to the Colonel of the regiment. The young Lieutenant was a strict disciplinarian, and with him in command the record of this company at once and continuously improved. In the battles about Atlanta he was assigned to duty as Adjutant of the regiment, and during the last eight months of the war was detailed as Aid-de-Camp and Acting Assistant Inspector-General on the staff of Gen. W. C. Whittaker. At the close of the war he was brevetted Captain of the United States Volunteers for gallant and meritorious conduct at the battles of Chickamauga, Resaca, Kennesaw Mountain, Franklin and Nashville, and was mustered out of service.
In the fall of 1865, he entered Beloit College, Wisconsin, where he spent three years. At the end of that period he entered the Chicago Medical College, from which, in 1870, he was graduated with the second honors of his class. Dr. Earle had studied medicine in the office of Prof. William H. Byford, and enjoyed his friendship and profited by his advice, and he now commenced practice in the office of his preceptor.
In the following year, 1871, Dr. Earle was married to Miss Fannie L. Bundy, of Beloit, a sister of the late Maj. J. M. Bundy, editor of the New York Mail and Express. Two children were born to them: Carrie and William B. Dr. Earle's father, Moses L. Earle, resides at Waukegan, Illinois, as does his eldest sister, Mrs. C. A. Partridge. Another sister, Mrs. Dr. F. H. Payne, resides at Berkeley, California. One brother, Dr. Frank B. Earle, is a medical practitioner in this city. Another brother, Fred L., is on the old farm in Fremont, Illinois; and still another, William A., is in Texas.
Dr. Earle's practice at an early stage assumed proportions that made his life a busy one. In 1870, at the organization of the Woman's Medical College, he became Professor of Physiology, although probably the youngest member, and at the bottom of the list in the faculty. At the end of twenty-one consecutive years of service, on the death of Prof. Byford, he became President of the institution. He was one of the founders of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, and Professor of Obstetrics, and after the death of Dr. Jackson was elected to the Presidency of the Board of Directors. At the time of his death he was Dean and Professor of Diseases of Children in the former, and President, Treasurer and Professor of Obstetrics in the latter.
In 1886, Dr. Earle visited Europe and pursued a course of study in the hospitals of Vienna, Florence and Berlin, after which he wrote a series of essays on obstetrics. At the outset of his professional life he became a member of, and devoted much of his time to, the local medical societies, in most of which he served as Secretary and later President. For seventeen years he was attending physician at the Washington Home, during which time he treated more than ten thousand inebriates, and later was attending physician at the Wesley Hospital. He was Professor of Obstetrics in the Post-Graduate Medical School, President of the Chicago Medical Society, and was a charter member of the American Pediatric Society, and of the Chicago Medico-Legal Society; member of the British Medical Association, Illinois State Medical Society and the Chicago Pathological Society. He was one of the founders and former Presidents of the Chicago Gynæcological Society, and was also a member of the Grand Army of the Republic, of the Loyal Legion, of the Lincoln Political Club, the Illinois Club, and the Irving, a prominent literary club on the West Side.
Notwithstanding the enormous demands of his practice, Dr. Earle wrote a large number of medical articles on a wide range of subjects, which attracted the attention of the profession, not only in America, but in Europe.
Among his writings were notable essays on temperance, education, military themes and general topics. He contributed much to medical journals and was one of the authors of "Keating's Cyclopedia of Diseases of Children,'' and also of the "American Text Book of Diseases of Children."
From his occupancy of the Chair of Diseases of Children in the Woman's Medical College, Dr. Earle was able to publish many papers on pediatrics. Among others is one entitled: "Diphtheria, and Its Municipal Control," after the reading of which before the Chicago Medical Society, a resolution was offered by Dr. Earle and passed without a dissenting vote, recommending the present system of placarding infected houses. He also wrote articles on typhoid fever and influenza.
Dr. Earle was an earnest, consistent Christian throughout his life, from the time he united with the Congregational Church at fourteen years of age. In 1870, he became a member of the Union Park Congregational Church of Chicago, where his name has ever since had an honored place.
At a meeting of the Chicago Gynæcological Society, held May 24, 1894, Dr. Henry T. Byford said of Dr. Earle: "Outside of the profession he was popular and prominent. * * * He was passionately fond of music and was a good singer. He was a favorite after-dinner orator. He possessed a commanding, almost colossal, figure, a handsome face, a powerful intellect, a magnetic temperament, and a voice whose sonorous and sympathetic vibrations commanded attention and made friends. He took no vacations and worked almost incessantly, notwithstanding the urgent and constant appeals made by his wife and friends. But the limit of physical endurance was reached on October 20, 1893, when he was taken ill with spinal meningitis. Cerebral symptoms soon developed, and he died November 19."
Dr. Foster said: "In the medical societies he encouraged cordial fraternal relations among their members and the dissemination of practical knowledge in the profession, and appreciated the power of societies for public good, either through individual effort or by united influence upon special legislation. My acquaintance with Dr. Earle dates from his graduation. During his entire professional career he was aggressively active, never daunted, always hopeful. He had an exceptionally large circle of friends, and few enemies, notwithstanding his pronounced and outspoken opinions. He was a born fighter of disease, and was as anxious and determined to exterminate it as he was to overcome any other obstacle. He was the ideal representative family physician. Dr. Earle was thoroughly practical in his teaching; he practiced what he taught, and taught what he practiced. He did not pretend to be a classical and learned professor, but instilled into his students all that he knew of the subject he was teaching.''
Dr. E. J. Doering said: "I certainly never knew a more generous, gentle and kind-hearted man than Dr. Earle. His very presence was an inspiration, his genial and cordial greeting made us all feel at home, and I feel that in his death we sustain a loss we never can fill, and that we shall always treasure and cherish his memory as long as life lasts."

sure, a flat tire is annoying anywhere, even on a rough, steep, remote, narrow mountain road on a 90 degree day with giant horseflies swarming and biting - with gorgeous wildflower and views all around.
still, i found this whole scenario quite sweet, changing a tire with my 82 year old dad an 11 year old son. my dad taught me when i was 16 and now we got to pass that practical knowledge on to E together.

Reference Number: 13000972
The Montana State University Historic District (MSU Historic District) is eligible for the National Register of Historic Places at the statewide level under Criterion A in the area of Education and Agriculture and at the local level in the area of Community Planning and Development. Under the provisions of the 1862 Morrill Act, Montana State University (MSU) provided a high standard of education in agriculture and the mechanical arts as Montanas land-grant institution during its first 75 years, while also extending beyond its mandated subjects into the physical sciences, arts and humanities. Through the provisions of the 1887 Hatch Act and the 1914 Smith-Lever Act, MSU also served Montanas rural communities through the public dissemination of applied agricultural research completed by the Agricultural Experiment Station and practical knowledge on agriculture and home economics compiled through the Agricultural Extension Service. At the local level, MSU had an immeasurable impact on its host city of Bozeman, both in terms of its physical growth and the development of its socio-economic and cultural character. Furthermore, the MSU Historic District is also eligible for listing at the statewide level under Criterion C in the area of Architecture. As a collection of free-standing, high-style buildings designed by many of Montanas leading architects, the MSU Historic District is matched only by Montanas other institutions of higher learning. The district also includes a range of historically significant Victorian, Revivalist, and Modernist styles beginning with the Collegiate Gothic Montana Hall (1896-1898) and extending though the 1967 Roskie Hall, an eleven-story dormitory designed in the futurist Exaggerated Modern (or Googie) style.

“Be someone’s SUNSHINE when their skies are grey” shows the heart of a person who believed in being blessed to be blessing to the underprivileged and the needy.
Nehru Group of Institutions under the dynamic of leadership of Adv. P. Krishnadas, Managing Trustee and Dr. P. Krishnakumar, CEO & Secretary of NGI have successfully carried out this humble, deep and generous desire of their father Dr. P. K. Das for the ninth consecutive year with a special event on the 15th of December, 2017 marked to celebrate the birthday of the founder mentor.
Founder’s Day saw the Nehru Group of Institutions organizing this one-of-a-kind event of “Best Faculty Award” to recognize, honour and appreciate the hard work, dedication, focus and efforts of faculty from the neighbouring colleges in the state of Tamilnadu, Pondicherry and Kerala to take education to the next level. Going further, the institution after casting a critical eye over 1500 applicants who sent in their resumes and credentials for the prestigious award, under the mentorship of Dr. B. Ilango, Chief Jury, Former Vice Chancellor, Bharathiar University, selected 19 candidates for the category of “Best Faculty Award” and one candidate for the category “Lifetime Achievement Award”. The unbiased selection was not only based on the academic achievements of the pedagogues but also their desire to reach the unreached and underprivileged students and individuals in rural areas, helping them realize their dreams and aspirations.
The event started off with the “Tamil Thai Vaalthu” sung by the students of Nehru College, followed by the welcome address by Dr. B. Anirudhan, Principal of the Nehru Arts & Science College, who applauded the professors for their contribution not only to the field of education but also to the well-being of the community.
Adv. P. Krishnadas, Managing Trustee of Nehru Group of Institutions presided over the function. In his address to the all the dignitaries, participants and audience present at the event, he spoke about India emerging gradually and steadfastly as a country churning out job creators and entrepreneurs rather being jobseekers thus redefining the entire global education system. He put forth his vision and mission to make leaders of the aspiring students by empowering and imparting them with the best of subject, practical knowledge and developing their talents that would help them realize their dreams thus making them a force to reckon with in the new millennium. He concluded by saying,
” Life is short and the passion is big” and expressed his desire to regenerate and reengineer the structure of the education system soon rather than later. He thanked and congratulated the pedagogues for being the role models and mentors of the young minds of the country and also the people of Tamilnadu for their contribution, dedication and belief in bringing changes in the Indian education system.
Dr. Amrutha, Director of Nehru School of Architecture, introduced the distinguished Chief Guest, Dr. Paula Banerjee, Vice Chancellor, the Sanskrit College and University, University of Calcutta, honouring and applauding her endeavours and achievements in the field of Education.
In her speech to the attendees of the event, she began with expressing her regret in being fortunate to meet the founder mentor Dr. P. K. Das. On her being applauded for her honesty in the field of Education, she made known the fact that honesty is a virtue that should be a part of every individual that should be seen in their work throughout their life. She appreciated and applauded Adv. P. Krishnadas, Managing Trustee and Dr. P. Krishnakumar, CEO & Secretary of Nehru Group of Institutions for shouldering the responsibility and keeping the oil in the lamp burning of the dream that the founder mentor Dr. P. K. Das has envisioned for the young minds of the country. She expressed her gratitude to the faculty in striving hard to raise the level of education by their sincere, dedicated and determined approach to bring about a sea of change in the education system as a whole. She emphasised on the importance of research and for India to be self-sufficient rather than being dependent on global help. She gave the example of two famous universities of India, Nalanda and Dakshsheela, for the exemplary guidance and mentorship programs to the needs of learners of south Asia comparing NGI to such famous Universities. She also reiterated the fact that faculty in India should hone their skills and talents and raise their competency level, thus competing with the global standards and needs.
The release of the first draft of the Nehru Group of Institution Newsletter was followed by a brief address by Dr. B. Illango, Chief Jury, Former Vice Chancellor, Bharathiar University, who emphasised the necessity of the young minds receiving indepth training in honing their communication skills along with a practical approach in learning the subject matter of their respective fields of education. He applauded Dr. K. Porsezian, Pondicherry University for his efforts in coming up with equations that would help overcome the effects and challenges left behind by the striking of the deadly catastrophe of Tsunami.
Last but not the least, the dynamic Dr. Krishnakumar, CEO & Secretary of Nehru Group of Institutions, opened the eyes of all those present to the beautiful fact of being a blessing to others thus raising up the standard of GIVING than living by lending a hand of help and hope to those whose hard work and abilities go unrecognized and unseen. He said the “Best Faculty Award” not only bestowed honor to the deserving faculty but also made them responsible in taking the level of education a step further. Furthermore, it encouraged and motivated his college pedagogues to strive harder and make a mark in the lives and hearts of the young minds and society as a whole. The desire to reach out to every deserving faculty throughout the country was next on the agenda of the innumerable events planned for the year 2018. He expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the dignitaries, faculty awardees and their families, organizers, and each one present who made this event a memorable one.
The ceremony closed with the National Anthem with many of the faculty awardees expressing their joy, surprise and gratitude to Nehru Group of Institutions in recognizing and honouring their work.

Extracts from ‘Portraits from the Past: Graham Wallas: 1858-1932,’ by W.A. Robson from LSE Magazine, May 1971, No41, p.5
‘The son of an Anglican clergyman, he went to Shrewsbury and then to Corpus Christi College, Oxford, where he read classics. His first post was as a schoolmaster at Highgate School but he left after a few years on a question of religious conformity. He then became an extension lecturer in London University in 1890. He joined the Fabian Society in its early days and wrote one of the original Fabian Essays. As a friend and colleague of the Webbs and Bernard Shaw he played a leading part in the creation and development of LSE from the day of its conception in August 1894, at the farm near Godalming where the four were staying, until the end of his active life. He was a lecturer at the School from 1895 and later became its first Professor of Political Science…Wallas was much greater as teacher than as a writer. As H.G Wells remarked in his Autobiography, ‘the London School of Economics will testify how much the personal Graham Wallas outdid the published Graham Wallas…there is scarcely any considerable figure among the younger generation of publicists who does not owe something to his slow, fussy, mannered, penetrating and inspiring counsels.’ Of his own debt Wells wrote ‘I cannot measure justly the influence of the disinterested life he led on my own. It was I think very considerable.’ Many of us who were his students and friends feel a similar debt. No small part of Wallas’ influence was due to his lovable personality and the spirit of benevolence and altruism which shone through him at all times.’
Extracts from ‘Professor K.B.S. Smellie’ by C.M.R. in The LSE Magazine, June 1988, No75, p. 21
‘Professor K.B.S. Smellie, Professor Emeritus of Political Science, died in London on 30 November 1987. Only three days earlier a notice had appeared in The Times expressing his appreciation for the cards and flowers sent to him for his ninetieth birthday, and his regret that, because he was in hospital, he could not celebrate with his friends in the normal champagne manner.
For K.B as he was affectionately known, such celebrations, to mark the passing years, had over the last decades become very much part of the currency of life. This was not only because he rejoiced in the birthdays and anniversaries themselves, but because they gave the opportunity for family and friends to come together at his home in Wimbledon, to be generously entertained, drawn into stimulating conversation on whatever intellectual problem was currently in the forefront of his mind, and delighted by the humour, felicity and incisiveness with which he would reply to the toast for the occasion. More often than not the toast would be proposed by a former student of his who subsequently became a colleague, and a friend. For K.B., the three categories were largely indistinguishable; and the resulting loyalties and affections were two-way and lasting.
Kingsley Bryce Speakman Smellie was born in London on 22 November 1897, of Scottish parents who were on the stage. He was educated first at a Dame School in Hammersmith…and then at Latymer Upper School. After the First World War he went up to St John’s College, Cambridge, on a scholarship and obtained a First in both parts of the History Tripos. In 1925 he went to Harvard Law School for a year on a Laura Spelman Rockefeller studentship, and acquired the abiding fascination with the institutions of the American democracy which he always retained.
That year apart, Smellie’s whole academic career was spent on the staff of the Government Department of the School. He had become a public administration assistant to Graham Wallas, the first Professor of Political Science in 1921; a Lecturer in Public Administration in 1929 and a reader in Political Science in 1939; and was appointed to a personal chair in Political Science in January 1949. This he held until he reached retirement age in 1965, when he became Emeritus. Twelve years later the School, happily, made him an Honorary Fellow.
He published nine books between 1928 and 1962…but it was orally, perhaps more than in his writings, that Smellie excelled and exercised a profound influence on generations of students. The style was one of scepticism, paradox, aphorism, of delight in ideas and intellectual provocation, of much knowledge combined with an element of self-depreciation…and of infectious enthusiasm and wit. Few who had the experience of lectures by, or tutorials with, K.B. – thumbs tucked into his characteristic fawn waistcoat surmounted by an elegant French bow-tie, eyes twinkling and intellectual argument flowing – will forget those happy experiences or what they learnt and derived from them…In the sphere of public administration, Smellie drew fruitfully on the practical knowledge he gained during the Second World War, when he served first in the BBC’s Propaganda Research Unit (July to December 1940) and then as a temporary administrative civil servant, from December 1940 to April 1942 in the Ministry of Home Security (bomb recording work) and then till January 1945 in the Board of Trade (clothes rationing)…Before and after his temporary service, Smellie was among those who lectured in Cambridge where the School was evacuated.
There were two other profound influences in K.B’s life. The first was his marriage in 1931, to Stephanie Narlian, one of his former students. This was a happy and successful partnership in which, in their qualities, their activities and interests they complemented each other superbly…The other influence was notable for what it did not do. K.B. served as a Private in the London Scottish in France in the First World War and, in April 1917, an exploding shell necessitated the amputation of his left leg below the knee and of his right foot. For all the seventy years that followed he had two wooden prostheses. But never once did he allow this to interfere with a full life, which included playing table tennis, driving a car in a manner which became somewhat notorious and a propensity for many years to consider attendance at West End cinemas to see the latest films as an extension of the facilities of the School…’
