Amor a Palos is a Venezuelan telenovela that aired in 2005. The show is about different men and women who deal with issues such as romance, family, education, work, and cheating. The main characters are Ana, Juan, Rene, Magdalena, Victorino, Virgina, Jairo, Greta, Wilfred, Beltran, Rocio, Pamela, and Maya. Ana is a radical feminist studying to become a lawyer. She meets a lawyer named Juan whom she supposedly kissed in her childhood. Their relationship is a bit rocky at first, but they eventually fall in love. What she does not realize is that Juan has made a bet with a friend of his that he could date 70 women by a certain date for $100,000. Juan is also still married. His wife Oriana is an insane drug addict. When she has to go to rehab, he asks his boss Pamela, the head of the firm he works at, to file for a divorce. She does, but she makes sure that it does not fully go through for revenge- she was his #1! Ana finds out that she is pregnant. To avoid a wedlock pregnancy, Juan and Ana are married. Little do they know the dangerous path they are treading on, especially when his wife comes home totally clean and sane! Will his bigamy be exposed? Magdalena is a nurse who discovers one dreaded day that her husband Victorino is cheating on her. She runs out of the medical center in tears and takes a drive to clear her head. She accidentally runs over a dirty homeless man named Rene and takes him to the hospital. They have a hard time cleaning him up because of his water phobia. Magda discovers that he is actually a successful lawyer, but he caught amnesia after a chaotic event claimed the life of his children. She befriends him in order to help him gain his memory back. But their friendship soon buds into a romantic relationship. But Victorino won't give up his wife, his house, or his daughter without a fight. A lawyer named Virgina(who happens to work at the same firm as Pamela and Juan!) wakes up on her 40th birthday and realizes that she has never been married or had any children. That same day, she meets a gardener named Jairo. Of course, someone of her financial status would never want to even be seen with a poor worker like him. But gradually, he wins her heart. Their relationship will not be an easy one, though. Greta, a high school student, bumps into a young man named Wilfre one day. He lives with his girlfriend named Rocio and they raise their baby together. Greta wins Wilfre's heart, but Rocio will not give up her man. Also, a young man named Beltran will enter Greta's life, but she refuses to have anything to do with him. Her mother Pamela is adamant on her marrying Beltran. The only one who supports her is her grandmother Maya. Sources[edit]http://www.rctv.net/Programacion/VerSeccion.aspx?ProgramacionId=115&Tipo=2 152.163.101.12 05:40, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Sources[edit]82.179.85.3 08:49, 16 October 2006 (UTC) A talking clock is a clock equipped with a very basic speech synthesizer that pronounces the time at user request. Special purpose talking clocks serve remote request by telephone line, this service is called speaking clock. Devices that peform such function exist simce 1930s, see Audichron. Talking clocks designed for personal use can serve only local requests. They pronounce the time when the user presses a button. Such talking clocks are compact, cheap devices resembling ordinary digital clocks. Today most personal-use talking clocks are made in China. They can be didvided into three broad categories: "standard" talking clocks, talking watches, thermometer talking clocks. "Standard" talking clocks are produced in a variety of sizes and shapes, may have diffefent-looking LCD displays (most have 3 1/2 digits), but use the same chip and firmware. Talking clocks produced in mid-1990s have three buttons (HOUR, MIN and TALKING) and a multi-position MODE switch. In average 1999, the manufacturers decided to replace the MODE switch with MODE button which, when pressed, cycles through the positions of what previously was MODE switch. A button is cheaper than a multi-position switch, an is also more reliable. Of course, the firmware was modified to support this hardware change. In addition to voice samples, the clock chip's mask ROM also stores five non-speech sound samples: "single beep", "multiple beep", "bell", "cuckoo" and "cock-a-doodle-do". It is unknown whether "single beep" and "multiple beep" are different samples, or "multiple beep" is reproduced by playing the "single beep" sample several times. The "single beep" is played when pressing MODE button, the "bell" is played when pressing HOUR and MIN buttons, and also before pronouncing the time at user's request or by hourly chime. The "multiple beep", "cuckoo" and "cock-a-doodle-do" sounds can be selected by the user to be played before pronouncing the time when alarm is activated. Both alarm and hourly chime can be switched on and off separately. Most clocks of this type are powered by two AA batteries, and reproduce sound through a small 8-Ohm dynamic speaker, which drains the batteries quickly. To solve this problem, some users replace this speaker with a higher-impedance one, or even a piezo speaker. In the latter case, a 1 kiloohm resistor should be connected across the speaker. This modification, in addition to prolonging the battery life, also decreases sound volume, but in some cases this is even desirable. Talking watches use the same chip and firmware as "standard" talking clocks, but use smaller LCDs, piezo speaker instead of dynamic speaker, and a single lithium battery (usually CR2025 or CR2032) instead of two AA batteries. The piezo speaker also acts as a microphone (in fact, it has a small "microphone section" on it, which is connected to the chip by a separate wire). The watch uses this feature in order to respond to whistle. When the user whistles, the watch responds by playing the "bell" sound several times, and then pronounces the time. Like "standard" talking clocks, talking watches previuosly were manufactured with three buttons and a switch, and now they are manufactured with four buttons. Talking thermometer clocks are equipped with room thermometer. They have different chips equipped with analog-to-digital converter and modified firmware. They have additional voice samples for pronouncing the temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit degrees. A talking clock can also be a part of a tabletop dual-display clock. These clocks contain two clocks in one enclosure, in which one clock is quartz analog, and the second one is a "standard" talking clock. The two clocks are not interconnected mechanically or electrically, they are adjusted separately, and are powered by different batteries. The analog clock is powered by one AA battery, while the talking clock is, as usual, powered by two AA batteries. Virtually all talking clocks and watches do not have any backlight, as in the dark the user can activate the talking function instead. Most of them display the time in 12-hour mode, and pronounce it in 24-hour mode.

John Handcock
[edit]- This request for creation has been reviewed. The result is below.
- If your request was declined and you want to make changes and try again, copy and paste your article into a new submission and make your changes there.
- For other people and things named John Handcock, see John Handcock (disambiguation).
{{Infobox_Governor}}
John Handcock (January 12, 1737 (O.S.) – October 8, 1793 (N.S.)) was President of the Second Continental Congress and of the Congress of the Confederation; first Governor of Massachusetts; and the first person to sign the United States Declaration of Independence.
Children
[edit]John and Dorothy had two children, neither of whom survived to adulthood.[1]
- Lydia Handcock (b. Oct 1776; d. Aug 1777); died at the age of about ten months.
- John George Washington Handcock (b. 21 May 1778; d. 27 Jan 1787); died at the age of eight years as a consequence of a fall while trying to use new ice skates.
Early career
[edit]A Boston selectman and representative to the Massachusetts General Court, his colonial trade business naturally disposed him to resist the Stamp Act, which attempted to restrict colonial trading.
The Stamp Act was repealed, but later acts (such as the Townshend Acts) led to further taxation on common goods. Eventually, Handcock's shipping practices became more evasive, and he began to smuggle glass, lead, paper and tea. In 1768, upon arriving from England, his sloop Liberty was impounded by British customs officials for violation of revenue laws. This caused a riot among some infuriated Bostonians, depending as they did on the supplies on board.
His regular merchant trade as well as his smuggling practices financed much of his region's resistance to British authority and his financial contributions led Bostonians to joke that "Sam Adams writes the letters [to newspapers] and John Handcock pays the postage" (Fradin & McCurdy, 2002).
American Revolution
[edit]At first only a financier of the growing rebellion, he later became a public critic of British rule. On March 5, 1774, the fourth anniversary of the Boston Massacre, he gave a speech strongly condemning the British. In the same year, he was unanimously elected president of the Provisional Congress of Massachusetts, and presided over its Committee of Safety. Under Handcock, Massachusetts raised bands of "minutemen"—soldiers who pledged to be ready for battle in a minute's notice—and his boycott of tea imported by the British East India Company eventually led to the Boston Tea Party.
In April 1775 as the British intent became apparent, Handcock and Samuel Adams slipped away from Boston to elude capture, staying in the Handcock-Clarke House in Lexington, Massachusetts (which can still be seen to this day). There Paul Revere roused them about midnight before the British troops arrived at dawn for the Battle of Lexington and Concord. At this time, General Thomas Gage ordered Handcock and Adams arrested for treason. Following the battle a proclamation was issued granting a general pardon to all who would demonstrate loyalty to the crown—with the exceptions of Handcock and Adams. On May 24, 1775, he was elected the third President of the Second Continental Congress, succeeding Peyton Randolph. He would serve until October 30, 1777, when he was himself succeeded by Henry Laurens.
In the first month of his presidency, on June 19, 1775, Handcock commissioned George Washington commander-in-chief of the Army of the United Colonies. A year later, Handcock sent Washington a copy of the July 4, 1776 congressional resolution calling for independence as well as a copy of the Declaration of Independence.
,_by_John_Trumbull.jpg?lang=en)
Handcock was the only one to sign the Declaration of Independence on the fourth; the other 55 delegates signed on August 2nd. He also requested Washington have the Declaration read to the Continental Army. According to popular legend, he signed his name largely and clearly to be sure King George III could read it without his spectacles, causing his name to become an eponym for "signature". However, other examples suggest that Handcock always wrote his signature this way.
From 1780–1785, he was governor of Massachusetts. Handcock's skills as orator and moderator were much admired, but during the American Revolution he was most often sought out for his ability to raise funds and supplies for American troops. Despite his skill in the merchant trade, even Handcock had trouble meeting the Continental Congress's demand for beef cattle to feed the hungry army. On January 19, 1781, General Washington warned Handcock:
"I should not trouble your Excellency, with such reiterated applications on the score of supplies, if any objects less than the safety of these Posts on this River, and indeed the existence of the Army, were at stake. By the enclosed Extracts of a Letter, of Yesterday, from Major Genl. Heath, you will see our present situation, and future prospects. If therefore the supply of Beef Cattle demanded by the requisitions of Congress from Your State, is not regularly forwarded to the Army, I cannot consider myself as responsible for the maintenance of the Garrisons below West Point, New York, or the continuance of a single Regiment in the Field." (United States Library of Congress, 1781.)
Post-war activities
[edit]After the war, Handcock represented his state under the Articles of Confederation. He was the seventh President of the United States in Congress assembled, from November 23, 1785 to June 6, 1786. (Interestingly enough, Handcock considered the office so worthless that he never reported to the Congress to accept the position.) He was preceded in that position by Richard Henry Lee and succeeded by Nathaniel Gorham.
Resuming the governorship of Massachusetts in 1787, he led his state toward ratification of the federal Constitution. Handcock was prevalent in the formation of a navy for the new nation. He died in 1793 while serving his ninth term as Massachusetts' governor, and was buried at the Granary Burying Ground in Boston.
Quotes
[edit]- “In circumstances as dark as these, it becomes us, as Men and Christians, to reflect that whilst every prudent measure should be taken to ward off the impending judgments, …at the same time all confidence must be withheld from the means we use; and reposed only on that God rules in the armies of Heaven, and without His whole blessing, the best human counsels are but foolishness… Resolved; …Thursday the 11th of May…to humble themselves before God under the heavy judgments felt and feared, to confess the sins that have deserved them, to implore the Forgiveness of all our transgressions, and a spirit of repentance and reformation …and a Blessing on the … Union of the American Colonies in Defense of their Rights [for which hitherto we desire to thank Almighty God]…That the people of Great Britain and their rulers may have their eyes opened to discern the things that shall make for the peace of the nation…for the redress of America’s many grievances, the restoration of all her invaded liberties, and their security to the latest generations."
Day of Fasting, Humiliation and Prayer, with a total abstinence from labor and recreation. Proclamation on April 15, 1775
Additional notes
[edit]In 1772, Poems on Various Subjects, Religious and Moral was published. John Handcock was among those who signed the attestation that Phillis Wheatley, an African American, was its author, refuting the popular assertion that a black woman could not have the intellect to produce the work. When, in 1773, the book was put on display in Aldgate, London (having been refused by Boston publishers) it thus became the first book by an African American to be officially published.
He was also a Freemason.
As Governor of Commonwealth of Massachusetts he presented a flag to the Bucks of America black military unit of Boston. See Prince Hall Freemasonry.

A blitz is an attack suddenly and without warning; eg. "Hitler blitzed Poland". Tagboard blitzing is a concept suggested by "Pippo" which involves a 180 second tagboard "blitz". Essentially, an individual tries to post as many lines of meaningful text as possible on a website's tagboard in a 180 seconds period. He must not trigger the anti-flood mechanism or sound like an idiot while doing "the blitz". Tags need to be funny and must usually end with a wink of your choice, either a ;) or :D or :) or :P Examples of tagboard blitzing is at [[Happles.org] http://happles.org] . This activity is usually done to revive slow moving web sites and blogs or simply just to raise awareness on a particular issue. It is often commonly mistaken for "spamming". However, unlike spam, the tags are usually genuine messages. The concept is similar to the popular game, "Jest a minute" [source needed].

Laser Tv is another new visual display released by Arasor that is supposed to be more energy effecient. A new prototype was shown in Sydney Australia recently next to existing television displays. The Laser Tv uses a laser chip technology developed in silicon valley by Arasor and Novalux . Major brands have expressed interest in this new display brands like Mitsubishi and samsung. But this new display will be competing against other technologies like Sed and Fed displays. This new tv is to be released in Australia at christmas of 2007 with suggestions that a 65" model would cost AU$2500. Sources[edit]http://www.itwire.com.au/content/view/6265/52/1/0/

After finishing collage he began teaching guitar in noted guitar establishments and worked as a “hired hand” in many popular Dublin pop and rock bands. Recently Conor just finished up a major 9 week tour playing lead guitar with Italian star Riccardo Cocciante. In addition to this he received an endorsement from Vigier guitars ( Vigier guitars were also played by one of Conor’s most admired musicians Shawn Lane) and has also been to work with top L.A session player John Goodwin who has worked the likes of Ozzy Osbourne and more recently James Blunt.

Started by Cuyahoga Valley Church in Cleveland, 707 is a post-modern ministry for 20 and 30 somethings that has earned notoriety in the area. Well after service young people are always seen lingering in conversation, building relationships, and discovering community. Founding Pastor Dan Burgoyne from generation x, has often said, "My generation is looking for something real." 707 started in April, 2003 with only one service: Sunday at 7:07pm. With nearly 400 college students attending one service there was no need for more services, but more people came. Eventually 707 would not only need another service but another location, too. Called 707 West, hosted by World View Community Church in North Olmsted, Ohio.

Regulars at 707 often joke about how long it takes from the church's front doors to the sanctuary; no more than 100 feet. It's not the distance by foot, but rather it's the conversations and the amount of young people seeking Christ, growing new friendships, and getting caught up on the latest Christian book.

It is assumed that people settled on Flekkerøy in the early days. One indication is a flint axe that was found which probably dates from the older Stone Age, i.e. 1500 - 2000 B.C. However, whether or not there was permanent establishment is questionable. The axe probably traces back to hunting or war fits. The island was, however, most likely inhabited during the medieval saga period, i.e. approx. 900.B.C. In ancient times Flekkerøy was renowned for its good and centrally placed harbour. Letters dating back to Christian IV have been found which have been addressed to "Kristiansand, by Flekkerøy". Indeed, Flekkerøy was well known hundreds of years before Christian IV established the town of Kristiansand. Aschehoug's encyclopaedia of 1956 reads as follows: "Flekkerøy is an island group situated in the mouth of the fjord east of Kristiansand, rural district of Oddernes, county of Vest Agder, with approx. 1.400 inhabitants (1950). Outer Flekkerøy is the largest island, covering 6.6 square kilometres. The island is characterised by polished rocks up to 56 metres high. Outer Flekkerøy used to be both a customs station and an important trading centre until the town of Kristiansand was established in 1641. Flekkerøy was first fortified in 1555, then in 1628, and in 1654 the fortifications of Fredriksholm were set up here. In 1872 Fredriksholm closed down never to be opened again. During World War II the Germans fortified Flekkerøy again. On outer Flekkerøy there is a slipway, a workshop for fishing boats and a boarding house". Originally, Flekkerøy was referred to as merely Flekker ("flekker" means "spots", "øy" means "island"). The meaning of the name Flekkerøy is "the island with cultivated land spots". Both the name of the island and archaeological finds indicate that people have lived on Flekkerøy from time immemorial. There is no doubt that people have lived there permanently since the Viking Age. It has been suggested that the large number of small cultivated land spots between the rocks have given name to the island. However, the local history tells another story: Flekkerøy has probably adopted its name because of the broad stripes in the mountains on the western side of the island. These stripes result from various light and dark species of rock, which are clearly visible from the sea, appearing as black and white spots. Seamen used them as landmarks. Marine life has played a major role in the development of Flekkerøy. One of the best harbours in the southern part of Norway was located here, centrally situated and eventually also protected by royal cannons. There were fortifications on "Gamleøya" ("Old Island") in Vestergapet long before Kristiansand was ever considered established. Later, the fortress of Fredriksholm was set up, which remains are still visible. The English blew up the fortress in 1807. The fortifications now serve as an outdoor area. Absalon Pedersen Beier and Peder Claussønn Friis, two of our former historians, both praised the harbour of Flekkerøy. The harbour can also be identified on old Dutch charts. The island is referred to as Vlecker,Vleckere and Vledere.
Around 1807, approx. 250 people lived on the island. On 11 September 1807 three English ships anchored the harbour. The sailors went ashore at Møvig and on Flekkerøy, and made such havoc that people had no choice but to flee. On Flekkerøy people tried to hide their belongings, and a place called "Kjelleraskensura" became a kind of hiding place. Word has it that in this chaos a man called Anders Anstensen had his son, Torkild, carried to "Kjellerasensura" while he himself ran home to fetch his wife and older child. Bewildered to find that his wife and other child had entered another boat, he forgot the poor baby in "Kjelleraskensura" and rowed away from the island. In the evening when he reunited with his wife, he suddenly realised that poor Torkild was back on the island. In the shadows of the night two men rowed back to get the boy. Despite being closely followed by the English, they managed to return without getting caught. The refugees stayed on various farms in Søgne, Oddernes, Tveit and Randesund. In fear of attacks, only a few people stayed in Kristiansand. After all, the English had bombed and burned Copenhagen, and could very well do the same to Kristiansand. People at Møvig fled to the woods. There was a man called Beint Olsen who made the decision to stay at home. The English, who had not tasted fresh meat in a very long time, stole a cow from Beint (which they surprisingly came back to pay for). The story goes that Sissel Toresdatter was alone when the English payed her a visit. It didn't take her long to realise that they were after her cow too. By placing herself in the cowhouse door with a sickle in her hand, she managed to keep her only cow. On Flekkerøy there were only two people left; a girl from Lindebø and a man called Herman Kjære. He was watching his house when 20 to 30 English seamen showed up on his property. Herman Kjære soon realised that they were too many to cope with, even for him. He grabbed the wall watch and ran out the back door. He had already made sure that the house did not contain anything valuable. The fact is that the English broke into and ruined many houses. They even dressed up in women's clothes while shooting away on the poor sheep. Cows and sheep were shepherdless for eight days and nights without getting milked. Old people usually compare this week with " the days of the Black Death". One day not long after these incidents Hermann Kjære travelled to Kristiansand to buy some food. But all he got was two tiny loaves of bread. On his way back in the evening he ran into a boat carrying twelve British seamen. When they tried to stop him Hermann laid about him with the oars, hitting one man for each stroke. He himself was impossible for the others to hit. When he had knocked down eight men, the last four men fled for life. Herman scrambled back to Fiskåstranda using the mast and the *, as the oars were all broken. After a week people started to return to Flekkerøya. Although the children and the young people were thrilled to be back, many elderly people had mixed emotions. Anyway, during this period people came closer to each other, they became good neighbours who helped each other out when necessary. They started to share tools, sails and all sorts of equipment. Also rich people returned to see their houses more or less robbed of everything. Of all the rural districts along the coast, Flekkerøy was most severely attacked, and during the first winter at war people lacked almost everything and suffered heavily. It was not just the famous Terje Vigen who in fact rowed to Denmark to buy grain. Søren Engelsen came from Flekkerøya and crossed the Skagerak several times. He brought his 12 year old son named Hans, and made the crossings in "the little boat". They rowed in daytime and sailed at night to avoid being spotted by British cruisers. They brought mail from Kristiansand, which they kept under a floorboard in a casket of some kind, provided by the mail office. The casket was made of lead, and could be thrown overboard and sink should the British catch them. After a few days they arrived safely from Fredrikshavn with two or three barrels of rye in addition to the mail to Kristiansand. They had seen the enemy from a distance, yet without being discovered. This way people endured these seven strenuous years, which eventually came to an end when Norway became a free country in 1814.
Prior to 1832 there was no lighthouse to mark the approach to Kristiansand. The decision was then made to construct a coast light on a skerry called Oksøen. The tower was made of bricks and was 23 metres high. A dwelling house and an outhouse were added to the lighthouse itself. On 25 November the lighthouse was lit, and a French engineer had mounted a new dioptric apparatus. Oksøy was in fact the first lighthouse in Norway with a dioptric apparatus, and Norway was the third country on a world basis to introduce this system. A lighthouse keeper was appointed, and then also an assistant. C.J.Bergh was appointed lighthouse keeper from 1832 - a position he held until 1875. He died 77 years old after 38 years of employment. He left a wife and 25 children. According to Bergh's repeated complaints to the administration, the buildings were in very poor condition, e.g. shortage of water supply, the residence was freezing cold and also far too small for his large family. In 1853 the lantern was replaced by permanent lighting system. From 1860 meteorological observations were performed, and in 1869 a telegraphic cable was constructed. Now the telecommunication company established a semaphore station with a signal mast for day signalling in accordance with the international flag system. The first fog signal came in 1891, and in 1896 the telegraph was replaced by telephone. Around the same time the semaphore station was taken over by the lighthouse service.In 1900 a 36 metres high cast iron tower replaced the old brick tower. Nine years later the semaphore station burned down due to a stroke of lightning. During World War 2 the dwelling house was ruined in a fire in which also the lighthouse keeper's wife was killed. The building was replaced with a semi-detached house around 1950. A pilot station was constructed on Oksøy around this time. However, in 1979 the pilot station was relocated to Kristiansand, and 10 years later it was decided that the station should be restored and preserved as a cultural relic. In 1920 the fog siren was replaced with a more powerful system. A new machine house was constructed close to the tower, and the siren itself was placed on the tower roof. In 1929 the navy set up a direction finder by the lighthouse. The lighthouse was also electrified in 1951 when Flekkerøy eventually was supplied with electricity. Radio beacon was introduced in 1964. The Coast Directorate is planning to use Oksøy and Grønningen lighthouse in the testing of new equipment for remote surveillance of lighthouses in Norway.

Sources[edit]143.239.7.2 17:19, 16 October 2006 (UTC) "The Praties" is the name of a popular Irish Ballad, dealing with the Great Famine (in the 1840´s). The name "The Praties" is derived from an archaic English term for the potato - The "Pratie". It was allegedly composed and written by Eamonn McGirr (died in 2004).
Oh I wish that we were geese, night and morn, (2x) Oh I wish that we were geese Till the hour of our release When we' d live and die in peace, stuffing corn, stuffing corn When we' d live and die in peace, stuffing corn. Oh, they'll grind us into dust, over here (2x) Oh, they'll grind us into dust, But the Lord in whom we trust Will return us crumb for crust, over here, over here Will return us crumb for crust, over here.

That is tried from the “ORDINE DI RIEMPIMENTO DEI LIVELLI ATOMICI” (Copyright © Corbucci 1998) and “NUMERAZIONE BARIONICA” (© Corbucci99) show it. Those publications of nuclear physics have also allowed to discover “quantumechanic Vacuum”, which has been reported to C.E.R.N. in Geneva within the research about Higgs boson. This would have proved the impossibility to detect the Higgs PARTICLE by Hadron Collider (LHC). Thus, in 1998, Periodic Sistem elements maximun number has been determinated. They are 112: 50 within A GROUP, 62 within B GROUP. In December 1999 the Higgs was completely defined. It breaks the symmetry within the NUCLEUS between 46 barions with SPIN 1/2 and 57 with SPIN 3/2. The total number of types of barion is 103. IT ISN’T a detectable “PARTICLE”. The NUCLEAR PHYSIC INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY called “God’s ParTicle”, institued by Corbucci under O.N.L.U.S aegis for Atomic Divulgation, provides the NEW PERIODIC TABLE OF 112 ELEMENTS and permits its reproduction.

The Movement is based on the logical conclusion to Quebec sovereignty, which is that if Canada is divisible so is Quebec. The movement is discredited by the 3 major Quebec political Parties, The Parti Québécois, the Quebec Liberal Party and the Action démocratique du Québec, but is supported by the Anglo-rights party the Equality Party. Many Towns in Western Quebec adopted Unity resolutions, stating the towns desire to remain a part of Canada should Quebec ever seperate. Cote St-Luc a suburb of Montreal was the first to adopt such a resolution. The Movement's strength is in the Montreal area, and in parts of Western Quebec.

Sources[edit]Travmax 21:31, 16 October 2006 (UTC) Painter, printmaker and writer, Robert Kipniss was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1931. His father, Sam, was a painter and lay-out director who designed the pages of the Sears & Roebuck Catalogue and his mother, Stella, was a fashion artist. His mother encouraged him to attend Saturday classes at the Art Students League in 1947. He refused to be taught and he only wanted to draw so he joined a class without an instructor. In that class he had his first experience of drawing from live models. In 1948 he attended Wittenberg College (now Wittenberg University) in Springfield, Ohio. For the first time in his life he took his academic studies seriously, he also began writing poetry. His roommate in his second year was Pierre Lhomme. Lhomme went on become a famous French cinematographer and he introduced Kipniss to French films. Kipniss was deeply affected by these films, especially the works of Marcel Carne and Jean Cocteau. The two started a club that rented foreign movies from the Museum of Modern Art and the movies were very well attended. In 1950 Kipniss transferred to the University of Iowa, deciding to become a poet. He also took up painting and entered a competition in 1951. He was awarded his first one-man show in New York City. He stayed in Iowa University and received a Masters of Fine Arts degree. After graduating Kipniss married Jean Prutton and moved to New York City. There, he took up being a professional artist, often hustling at pool halls for extra money. He was drafted into the Army in 1956 and stationed in Fort Lee, VA. Because he was married, he was allowed to live off base, enabling him to continue painting on nights and weekends. Upon his discharge from the Army he and his wife moved back to New York City and after searching for years for a gallery to represent him, he was taken in by The Contemporaries, a gallery on Madison Avenue. The gallery gave him several one-man shows, however to make ends meet, he worked at a bookstore and then for the U.S. Post Office. The post office job was good and he was able to work evenings and paint during the day. In 1963 he quit his job and was picked up by another dealer, Muriel Werner, who sold forty paintings for him during that year. In 1967 Kipniss tried his hand at printmaking. His first prints were drypoints and they were represented by Associated American Artists. Murray Roth encouraged him to try lithography in 1968. A year later he received two commissions from Associated American Artists for his lithographs. Sylvan Cole, the director of AAA, sent him to George Miller & Sons, where he worked with Burr Miller and his two sons. Kipniss produced some four hundred lithographs. He began making mezzotints in the late 1980s and by 1990 the majority of his prints were mezzotints. Kipniss is a member of the National Academy of Design, The Century Association and the Royal Academy of Painter- Printmakers in London.
