Between Mission Statement and Parametric Model: Places: Design Observer
Manque de culture des étudiants, environnement protégé, vouloir concevoir plus vert et plus social mais sans avoir la connaissance du terrain. Shahn dans « The Shape of Content » recommandait à tous les étudiants d'art d'aller travailler dans les champs pour comprendre la terre, sa couleur, sa matière, l'aspect social.The project also didn’t much consider the crews of low-wage farm workers that would be needed to plant and harvest the crops of the ambitious vertical farm; presumably these crews would share elevators and stairwells with the residents of the market-rate condos above.

Biggest, Tallest Tree Photo Ever - The Picture Show Blog : NPR
National Geographic sent Nichols to spend an entire year in California's redwood forest. His mission was to capture the majesty of some of the tallest trees on Earth, some of which date back before Christ. And if you've ever photographed in a forest, you'll understand the challenge this presented. There's no capturing the awe one feels before these monoliths that measure, in some cases, upward of 300 feet.

Coming At You Like A Pydermonkey at Toolness
Pydermonkey’s mission is pretty simple and straightforward: it’s just meant to wrap Spidermonkey’s C API as faithfully as possible—including its debugging API—while enforcing the memory safety that Python is known for. This makes it awfully low-level for casual programmers, but thanks to Python’s awesome support for magic methods, it’s not hard to create high-level wrappers that provide much more convenient bridging between JavaScript and Python code.

NASA NEBULA | About NEBULA
NEBULA is a Cloud Computing environment developed at NASA Ames Research Center, integrating a set of open-source components into a seamless, self-service platform. It provides high-capacity computing, storage and network connectivity, and uses a virtualized, scalable approach to achieve cost and energy efficiencies.
The fully-integrated nature of the NEBULA components provides for extremely rapid development of policy-compliant and secure web applications, fosters and encourages code reuse, and improves the coherence and cohesiveness of NASA's collaborative web applications. It is used for Education and Public Outreach, for collaboration and public input, and also for mission support.
Built from the ground up around principles of transparency and public collaboration, NEBULA is also an open-source project. NEBULA is built on the NEBULA platform.

Centre de presse - Google Bombing sur le moteur de recherche
Nous n'excusons pas cette pratique, ni aucune autre pratique visant à altérer l'intégrité de nos résultats de recherche, mais nous ne sommes pas plus enthousiasmés par l'idée de modifier manuellement nos résultats pour empêcher de telles informations d'apparaitre. Cette pratique malveillante du "Google Bombing" est peut-être divertissante pour certains, mais en aucun cas leur démarche n'affecte la qualité générale de notre moteur de recherche, dont l'impartialité reste, comme toujours, au centre de notre mission.
