Carver Chair — a four-square turned chair (New England, ca. 1630-1657; exhibited at Pilgrim Hall Museum); traditionally associated with the first Plymouth Colony governor John Carver (pre-1584-1621); recently its association with Carver has been discounted, as it was determined to have been made of white ash, native to New England, and this (together with Carver’s death date, plus the fact that furniture was not made at Plymouth Colony until years later) indicate that he could not have owned it. A "Carver chair" is characterized by having three vertical and three horizontal spindles in the back, but no other turned spindles elsewhere. Bradford Chair

The Foire Internationale de Dakar is a building complex on the outskirts of Dakar, Senegal. It was built in 1975 1975 to host the country’s biennial international trade fair and to trumpet the new nationstate’s presence on the global stage. Designed by little-known French architects Jean-François Lamoureux and Jean-Louis Marin.

In 1970, while a college teacher and administrator, he was struck by a student David Vetter's research showing the steady deterioration of soil farmed with heavy doses of nitrogen fertilizer. Conventional farming created a chemical treadmill: Farmers would use a pesticide, then find the next year that bugs had grown resistant, forcing them to resort to newer, more expensive products. By this time, too, Rachel Carson in “Silent Spring” had exposed the health hazards of DDT.

Ted acknowledged the decline of his own soil. But, close to 70, he felt it was too late to change. After his father suffered a heart attack in 1976, Fred offered to move back to the farm--if he could run it organically. [3]

The film's Marquette, Nebraska Donald Vetter went organic on his family farm in 1953, his neighbors thought he was crazy. first segment examines the role that the introduction of chemical pesticides had in expanding corporate farming and ending the role of small family farms. produces food in such a way that harms the soil as well as harming the farmers that tion of meat (chicken, beef, and pork), calling it inhumane and economically and environmentally unsustainable. The second segment looks at the industrial production of grains and vegetables (primarily corn and soy beans), again labeling this economically and environmentally unsustainable. The film's third and final segment is about the economic and legal power, such as food labeling regulations, of the major food companies, the profits of which are based on supplying cheap but contaminated food, the heavy use of petroleum-based chemicals (largely pesticides and fertilizers), and the promotion of unhealthy food consumption habits by the American public.[4][5] It shows companies like Wal-Mart transitioning towards organic foods as that industry is booming in the recent health movement. On this week’s 51%, meet a woman who, after a career in TV, made her first feature-length documentary, and Dr. Jeri Burns tells a seasonal story. I’m Allison Dunne and this is 51%.

Bonnie Hawthorne’s documentary “Dreaming of a Vetter World” is about a visionary Nebraska farm family who understood that modern agriculture was ailing, and found a cure. From farmer’s son to soil scientist to missionary and back to farmer, organic pioneer David Vetter has dedicated his life to a “ministry to the soil.” With camera and camper in tow, Hawthorne leaves her urban comforts in the rearview mirror to learn from the Vetters about what's really going on in the Corn Belt. As interest in regenerating soil explodes worldwide, Hawthorne discovers that David Vetter is way ahead of the game. “Dreaming of a Vetter World” shows it's possible to jump off conventional agriculture’s pesticide treadmill. It’s also a story about love, hope and place; an example of perseverance and doing what you know is right — against all odds.

But first we need to back up, when the seed for her documentary film was planted, but she didn’t even know it. It was during a chance encounter in 2004 in Zion National Park in Utah, where Hawthorne met Reverend Molly Vetter, one of the youngest ordained Methodist ministers, at age 26, in the country. They stayed in touch, became Facebook friends, and Hawthorne learned through Facebook about the Vetter family farm in Nebraska. I caught up with Hawthorne at the Woodstock Film Festival in the fall, where her film was screened for its East Coast premiere.


Your movie, “Dreaming of a Vetter World,” is a tender, loving take on an agricultural insurrection in Nebraska – How did you come to make this movie? Well, it’s sort of a multi-pronged problem. There’s the consumer Roundup in the small bottle in the big box store. There’s the Roundup used in your kid’s playground. Then there’s the millions of tons being used in agriculture. So far, the consumer/landscaper use is what’s making the headlines and getting billion-dollar lawsuit verdicts. What’s going to happen it starts to be about farming? There are areas of the Midwest where it’s literally raining glyphosate.


BONNIE: New in geologic time, sure, but glyphosate (the active ingredient in Roundup) was developed as a chelating (or cleaning) agent for industrial pipes, in the 1960s. It’s weedkilling super power was discovered by accident and then patented my Monsanto.

Then genetic engineering of seeds came along, and Monsanto—a chemical company — became a seed company. They developed Roundup-Ready crops — soybeans, corn, cotton — others came later — which are genetically engineered to survive when sprayed by glyphosate. It made farming huge acres so easy that farmers really thought it was a miracle. But then, after 20 years or so, glyphosate stopped working (nature always wins) so now it’s being combined with other, older herbicides that were the whole reason farmers embraced glyphosate to begin with. There’s a term for this: Pesticide Treadmill

Well, there was a surplus of nitrogen after WW2, which was used in bombs, of course. And they’d build plants to make it. So they convinced returning American soldier farmers that nitrogen was the best thing since sliced bread. Other war-time chemicals were repurposed in this way. Many young farmers don’t believe it when you tell them agricultural chemicals have only been in use for 70 years. They think it’s been that way forever. Her film tells how David and his father Donald Vetter, disappointed with the results of chemical agriculture, developed an organic management system that allows them to farm in harmony with nature. They now consider the soil their most important crop

The filmmaker wants to know if I want the long version of the story behind her first documentary. The movie making its debut Sunday afternoon at the Mary Riepma Ross Media Arts Center. The movie with the intriguing title: “Dreaming of a Vetter World.” And the compelling subject: Nebraska farmer with a ministry to the soil. I’ve watched the trailer for Bonnie Hawthorne’s film, shot over two years at David Vetter’s farm outside Marquette in Hamilton County. (I can assure you it’s worth the price of admission, at least to anyone who cares about food and the way we grow it.) The story of a kind man with an Amish-style beard and a bachelor’s in agronomy, a master’s in divinity and a lifelong commitment to organic farming. The story of his father, Don, who died during filming but began preaching the gospel of growing in healthy soil back in the 1940s. The story of like-minded farmers and family and the science of soil and growing good food in a way that sustains the Earth. All filmed on a shoestring — “on the aglet of a shoestring” — by a woman who drove to Nebraska hauling a camper she called Petunia and whose career before 2014 was editing reality TV shows I’ve got time, I tell Hawthorne. Go for it. And so she starts at the unlikely beginning. On a 16-mile hike called The Narrows in Utah’s Zion National Park, where she and her best friend had decided to tackle a potentially dangerous trek through water up to chest-high in the Virgin River in 2004. The day before they set out, the friends took a class in surviving flash floods -- which can occur along a section of the river surrounded by sheer rock walls -- and the next morning they boarded a shuttle to the trailhead, ready for adventure. Another couple from the class got off the shuttle there, too, a man and a woman who didn’t look too pleased to be starting their hike with strangers. Hawthorne took the hint. She dallied. “Five hours later, we come upon this guy covered in blood from head to toe.” The injury was the result of a small rock falling 500 feet, Hawthorne said Tuesday. “Head injuries tend to bleed a lot.” The group had no cellphones — and no cell reception — and no way to go but forward. Together seemed like the best option. So they divided the man’s belongings in their packs and camped together that night before journeying on. A terrific storm blew in. Rocks the size of shoe boxes landed near their tents. Hawthorne stayed awake worrying they were all going to die. Her unexpected travel companion, the young Rev. Molly Vetter, stayed awake all night praying. When it was all over, they were friends for life. (The guy wrapped in the ace bandage was Molly’s husband, Matt Parker, who healed up and headed off to Iraq.) Hawthorne drove down to San Diego for his coming-home party. And returned again after the birth of Molly and Matt’s baby, Jonah. In 2011, Molly posted news that her family’s farm in Nebraska had won an award. It intrigued Hawthorne. “It never occurred to me that there would be organic farming in Nebraska.” A few years later, she heard a story on the radio about genetically modified wheat in Oregon growing in a place where no GMO wheat had been planted. “At the time, people were talking about Frankenfoods and there was a lot of drama on both sides.” She asked Molly what she thought was going on. The Methodist minister had an answer: You should talk to my Uncle Dave. It just happened that Uncle Dave was heading to California the next year for a conference. “I found him so sweet and intelligent and real,” Hawthorne says. “At the time, I was working in reality TV and I had a strong desire to be around real.” She decided to film a documentary about this man and his 280 all-natural acres. A farm they called the Grain Place. She figured it would take six months, maybe a year, start to finish. “It turned into an odyssey. In the end, I’d interviewed 38 farmers and scientists, and whittled it back down to focus on the Vetters.” She quit her day job. Sold most of her belongings. Camped out on the family farm for months in the spring and summers of 2014 and 2015; she was there for the solar eclipse last August. (Watch her video on dreamingofavetterworld.com). In her film, and to me, she explains the Vetter way — a self-renewing, self-sustaining farm system. “His most important crop is his soil.” She explains the nine-year rotation plan — pastures grazed by cattle for four years, growing crops, from popcorn to soybeans to barley without pesticides, herbicides, fungicides. A double row of conifer trees to protect from pesticide drift. Before she started filming, she asked the farmer a question: How come nobody’s ever made a movie about you? “Nobody’s asked,” he answered. Dave and his father were patient with her learning curve, gently steering her away from romantic shots of faded barns to their state-of-the-art stainless steel infrastructure. Don would tease her: You know this could be a pretty good film is you weren’t such a city girl. For most of the past two years, the city girl has been living in Joshua Tree, 100 miles east of Los Angeles, finishing the film. She’s happy with it. She hopes viewers will learn from it. (And buy their tickets in advance so they can secure the Ross’ bigger 250-seat theater.) The man who dreamed of a Vetter way will be there for a post-movie Q&A with a panel that includes Hawthorne. He seemed to like the movie, too, the first-time filmmaker said. His response sounds like 5 stars to a Midwestern newspaper reporter who knows a farmer or two. “Better than I thought it was going to be.”

David Vetter, the student who first introduced me to organic agriculture and is now a successful organic farmer and food processor (The Grain Place) near Marquette, Nebraska. David has been a visionary leader and played a key role in the development of organic agriculture and food systems in the plains.[6]

The Center for Electronic Calculus, Olivetti Olivetti, centre de calculs électroniques′′′ was a proposed building complex by Le Corbusier for the Olivetti company in Rho, Italy.

Le Corbusier pre­sented the first study in June 1962 in the form of a "CIAM Grid" notebook. By the end of October 1962 the second project was developed in the form published herein.The huge development is divided into three construction stages:

First stage: main entrance with restaurants, library and other social facilities, then the first square workshop-block mea­suring 350 ft. X 350 ft. Above this block are ten storeys of research laboratories.

The assembly shops are at ground level. The entrances however are located at roof level. By means of an entrance ramp the employees reach the connecting corridors which lead to the three square-shaped locker and washroom blocks. One enters the various shops at ground level by means of stairways.

The workrooms receive well-distributed daylight from above; there is also a plantation on the roof and a sprinkler system which provides cooling during hot weather.

Extract from Le Corbusier, Oeuvre complète, volume 7, 1957-1965

Olivetti, centre de calculs électroniques, Rho, Italy, 1963 "Vast construction for 4.000 employees using these immense calculating machines ... miraculous and able to answer to the questions that modern science suggests. Here the “simple man” (like myself) feels like a poor little man. But he feels that at both ends of this adventure, there is the implacable human presence: the person who asks the question and the one who receives the answer."

The site for the "Olivetti Electronic Center" is located on the main highway (Autostrada) Milan-Turin.

The Hibakusha Madonn is a statue found around 500 meters from ground zero after the 1945 U.S. atomic bombing of Nagasaki, was placed on the altar during a mass at Saint Patrick's Cathedral in New York on May 2, 2010, a day before the U.N. Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Review Conference. The statue was brought to New York by Mitsuaki Takami, archbishop of the Catholic Archdiocese of Nagasaki.

Originally the bust was part of a wood carving sculpted abroad and given to the cathedral in 1920. It was inspired by the painting of the Immaculate Conception by Spanish painter Bartolomé Esteban Murillo.

Mary the Hibakusha has become a messenger of peace and non-violence telling the world the horror and absurdity of nuclear weapons.[1]

———- From: [5]

The bomb that destroyed Nagasaki was dropped at 11:01 in the morning. That day Catholics were praying the novena of the Solemnity of the Assumption of Mary, for which a Mass was held. Everyone in the cathedral died, incinerated by temperatures exceeding 7,000 degrees. More than 35,000 people died in the city within hours; thousands more died in the months to follow. The cathedral was left in ruins.

When the bust was found, the face of the Virgin seemed fatally damaged, with empty eye sockets, and the cheeks and hair charred, and a crack on the left side of the face which, some believers say look now like tears of the Mother of God.

The image, also known as the Virgin of Urakami, is now placed in the new city’s new cathedral, built in 1959 on the ruins of the first one. It has become a symbol of peace and the fight against the use of nuclear weapons.


Speaking at the Non-proliferation conference, remembering the terrible toll of the nuclear attacks during World War II on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, a senior United Nations official Monday appealed for an end to the use of the weapons, which remain an “apocalyptic” threat.

The two cities were destroyed in August 1945, and more than 200,000 people died of nuclear radiation, shock waves from the blasts and thermal radiation.

More than 400,000 more people have died – and are continuing to die – since the end of World War II from the impacts of the bombs.

Today on the 73rd anniversary of the atomic bombing of the open city of Nagasaki, we remember and repent of this war crime when over 70 thousand Japanese people were incinerated instantaneously. Brian Terrell wrote these words in 2010 after he attended a Mass at St Patrick's Cathedral where the Hibakusha Maddona was on display. The Archbishop of Nagasaki had come to address the The Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty review conference at the UN and brought this statue to share with Americans and to implore us to take disarmament seriously. "Martha and I knelt at the rail in awe at this remnant of burnt wood that carried the weight of whole worlds...What we saw before us was transformed by a crucible of radiation, blast and searing heat in ways that it's sculptor could not have envisioned. Empty eye sockets. Looking to heaven with unlimited, unimaginable grief and pain!"
