Plot

OPENING QUOTE: “Knowledge is power.”

Renard (Sasha Roiz) is placed in emergency treatment and doctors begin surgery on him. Having left the wedding in Renard's car, Hank (Russell Hornsby) informs the others about his status. Trubel (Jacqueline Toboni) also informs them about the situation with Steward when she had to kill him. They arrive at Nick's house to find police officers surrounding it. Nick (David Giuntoli) assures Trubel that she killed Steward in self-defense and there's nothing to worry about as she can tell them the truth about what happened.

Somewhere in Portland, a man named Lawrence Anderson (Brian Letscher) is standing outside a house while memories begin to circulate in his head. He knocks on the door and Henry Slocombe (Rodney Sherwood) opens. They begin talking about a colleague's accident when Lawrence woges into an octopus-like Wesen and attacks Henry with the tentacles on his head. He ends up leaving him confused and tries to leave with his things when Slocombe's girlfriend arrives, forcing him to kill her and escape. Back at the house, Trubel begins to tell Wu (Reggie Lee) and Sgt. Franco (Robert Blanche) about what happened in the house when FBI agents arrive.

Agent Katrina Chavez (Elizabeth Rodriguez) and Agent Doug Rosten (Cobey Mandarino) question Trubel about the incident and ask her to come to the station in order to make a statement. In Vienna, Prince Viktor (Alexis Denisof) is notified of Renard's shooting and Steward's death and has to report it to the King, while he is uncertain if Nick was involved in the events. Meanwhile, Lawrence contacts a businessman to come and help him with what happened. Before meeting him, Lawrence uses the knowledge he retrieved from Slocombe and accesses his work to retrieve data. Agent Chavez discovers Trubel's Grimm entries and woges into a Steinadler and talks to Rosten about Trubel, seeing that she may not be normal after all.

Nick's house is vacated by the police and, that night, Juliette is visited by Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell) and Rosalee (Bree Turner). Juliette gets mad at seeing that she made them miss their honeymoon. In the station, Nick and Hank discuss Adalind's arrival in Vienna, deducing that she may have made a deal involving Nick so she could get her baby back. Trubel is finally released after her statement confirms the facts of the crime. Hank then visits Renard, who just finished having surgery but there's too much blood loss and that he may still be in danger. He then talks to Wu, who brings up Nick's book and the memories of the Aswang. Just then, the nurse tells them that they should call Renard's next of kin in case anything goes wrong.

Chavez is informed that Steward's last call was to a company named GQR Industries and a suitcase was brought to the office from his car. In the suitcase they find passports and money. They decide to check the bank accounts. Nick, Hank and Trubel check the Grimms' entries to find out information about the Wesen and discover they're dealing with a Gedächtnis Esser, an octopus-like Wesen who steals his victims' memories with his tentacles. Lawrence meets with the businessman and gives him an equation he retrieved from Slocombe's research, stating it's related to the CVA Project. However, Lawrence is taken into custody after new evidence resurfaces.

Nick and Hank interrogate Lawrence but as his story is convincing, he is released and leaves the station. When he leaves the station, he is “assaulted” by a disguised Truble, who sees him woging. She then goes with Nick and Hank to confirm for them that he is a Gedächtnis Esser and sets off to follow him. Meanwhile, in the hospital, Renard flatlines and the doctors shock him with the paddles. A woman (Louise Lombard) is seen watching while the doctors are unable to revive him and declare 1:34 P.M. as the time of death.

Critical reviews

“Thanks for the Memories” received mostly positive reviews. Kathleen Wiedel from _TV Fanatic_, gave a 4.5 star rating out of 5, stating: “Hang onto your hats, folks, because _Grimm_ Season 4 Episode 1 kept the tension as taut as a high wire! Our heroes have had little enough time to breathe, let alone come to terms with everything that happened in the _Grimm_ Season 3 finale.”[5]

MaryAnn Sleasman from _TV.com_, wrote, “_Grimm_ has been moving toward a more mature take on the monsters-among-us trope for at least the last two seasons by expanding on the cultural, social, and historical aspects of Wesen, Grimm, and everything in between. While _Grimm_ may have initially identified itself as primarily a cop show with a twist, the world it has created is vast and capable of so much more than supernatural cops chasing monster robbers.”[6]

Christine Horton of _Den of Geek_ wrote, “After last season’s wedding-themed cliff-hanger, _Grimm_ season 4 kicks off with Nick having lost his powers to detect Wesen and Captain Renard fighting for his life after being shot by the rogue Hundjäger, Steward.”[7]

[First edition
Cover artist: Stephen Hutchings] _NOBODY'S SON_ is a 1993 fantasy novel by Sean Stewart. It was first published by Macmillan of Canada.[1]

Synopsis

When peasant Shielder's Mark breaks the curse of the Red Keep and frees the kingdom of Swangard from the Ghostwood, he claims as his reward the princess royal's hand in marriage. The ramifications of this choice are far more complex than he expected, however, especially since the aristocracy does not particularly like him.

Reception

_Nobody's Son_ won the 1994 Prix Aurora Award for Best Long-Form Work,[2] and the Canadian Library Association's 1994 Young Adult Book Award.[3] _Canadian Literature_ praised Stewart for transcending the usual stereotypes of fairy tales, calling _Nobody's Son_ an “existential drama” with “breathing, clearly individualized characters”, and comparing Shielder's Mark to the creations of J. D. Salinger.[4]

John Clute noted that “[the novel's] title contradicts the very heart of all modern commercial fantasy, and almost any other kind of fantasy as well”, and described it as “the most intensely _likeable_ story” that he had read in years.[5] Jo Walton called it “immensely readable and [with] genuine emotional depth”, but noted that — as was typical of her experience with Stewart's works — she was unable to retain much memory of what had happened in the novel.[6]

LEWELLYN FARR CHRISTENSEN[1] (May 6, 1909 – October 9, 1984)[2] was a ballet dancer, choreographer and director for many companies. He was largely associated with George Balanchine and the San Francisco Ballet, which he directed from 1952–1984. Other companies Christensen was a part of include Ballet Caravan, directed by Lincoln Kirstein, and Ballet Society, directed by Kirstein and Balanchine.[3]

Early life and training

Christensen was born in Brigham City, Utah, to a family with roots in dance and music. His grandfather, Lars Christensen, who emigrated from Denmark, taught folk and social dances.[4] Christensen was raised a Mormon, and this upbringing informed his latter career with of a sense of focusing on propriety.[5]

Christensen began studying dance with his uncles and music with his father when he was ten. He was taught early ballet technique by Stefano Mascagno, an Italian teacher. His brother Willam started Lew and their third dancing brother, Harold, in vaudeville. In addition to small vaudeville shows, the three brothers landed jobs in the Broadway musical _The Great Waltz_, during which time Christensen became a student at Balanchine's new School of American Ballet. In 1935, he joined the Metropolitan Opera's American Ballet Ensemble with Harold.[6]

Dancing with Balanchine

As soon as Christensen began his training, he received special attention from George Balanchine, who recognized his talent. Among Balanchine’s first lead male dancers, Christensen danced principal roles, receiving much praise for his lead roles in _Orpheus and Eurydice_ and _Apollon Musagète_.[7] Christensen, the first American to dance Apollo, set a new standard for that role, and was thereafter considered to be America's first home grown significant male dancer.[8]

At the onset of World War II, Lew Christensen was drafted into the United States Army. On return to New York in 1946 he joined Balanchine's and Kirstein's latest project, Ballet Society – later to be known as the New York City Ballet – where he became a ballet master. Although considered by many to be the logical heir to Balanchine's company, Christensen was instead enticed to join his brothers at the San Francisco Ballet in 1948.[9]

Ballet Caravan

Ballet Caravan, begun in 1936 by Kirstein, was intended to provide American ballet dancers with summer employment during off-seasons.[10] As a member, Christensen was a lead soloist, choreographer, and ballet master until 1940.

Between 1936 and 1941 ballets Christensen choreographed included _Pocahontas_ (1936), _Filling Station_ (1938), _Charade_ (1939), and _Pastorela_ (1941). _Filling Station_ incorporated Christensen's vaudeville roots, acrobats, deadpan humor, and tap dancing.

With Ballet Caravan, Christensen and his wife Gisella Caccialanza toured South America in 1941.[11]

San Francisco Ballet

Christensen served as associate director of the San Francisco Ballet in 1949, and was co-director in 1951 with his brother Willam. He served as director from 1952–1984.

Christensen transformed the San Francisco Ballet to an internationally recognized neoclassical company.[12] Although he joined the San Francisco Ballet in 1949, Christensen continued to act as ballet master for the New York City Ballet until 1950. After becoming co-director of the San Francisco company in 1951, he kept a good relationship between it and the New York City Ballet. In 1952, on his brother Willam's departure to establish the ballet program at the University of Utah, Lew became the director of the company. He choreographed over 110 works for the San Francisco Ballet. He brought impressive choreography from Balanchine to the company. With Christensen as director, San Francisco Ballet made its first tours nationally and internationally and received much acclaim.[13]

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What does the text say about Christensen's work with Balanchine?

answer: Christensen was one of the first lead male dancers in George Balanchine's company, and this relationship was borne out of Christensen's talent. Christensen was considered to be America's first home grown significant male dancer. After World War II, Christensen became ballet master of Balanchine's New York City Ballet and eventually became director of the San Francisco Ballet. He took Balanchine's choreography and brought it to the San Francisco Ballet and helped make them an internationally recognized neoclassical company.

text: The first sentence can be improved by adding how the two met.

refinement: Christensen was one of the first lead male dancers in George Balanchine's company. He became a student at Balanchine's new School of American Ballet until 1935 when he joined the Metropolitan Opera's American Ballet Ensemble. Christensen was considered to be America's first home grown significant male dancer. After World War II, Christensen became ballet master of Balanchine's New York City Ballet and eventually became director of the San Francisco Ballet. He took Balanchine's choreography and brought it to the San Francisco Ballet and helped make them an internationally recognized neoclassical company.

After World War II, Christensen became ballet master of Balanchine's New York City Ballet and eventually became director of the San Francisco Ballet. He took Balanchine's choreography and brought it to the San Francisco Ballet and helped make them an internationally recognized neoclassical company.

answer: Christensen was largely associated with George Balanchine, co-choreographing several ballets, and was considered America's first significant male dancer. In addition, Christensen brought impressive Balanchine choreography to the San Francisco Ballet.

answer: Balanchine quickly recognized Christensen's talent, and Christensen was among Balanchine's first male dancers and received several principal roles. After his service in WWII, Christensen joined Balanchine's Ballet Society in New York, which would later become the New York City Ballet, where he became a ballet master. Many considered Christensen to be the logical heir to Balanchine's company, but instead he chose to join his brothers at the San Francisco Ballet in 1948. Christensen brought impressive choreography from Balanchine to the company.

answer: Christensen's abilities were clearly noticed and he was introduced immediately to George Balanchine who would mentor and be a close friend. Christensen danced two principal roles in Orpheus and Eurydice and Apollon Musagète which both were critically applauded. Christensen was the first American to dance Apollo and he set the standard for dancers after him.

ST. IGNATIUS UNIVERSITY CENTRE, ANTWERP (UCSIA) is an independent continuation of the Jesuit effort to keep alive the Christian and Jesuit influence on to education after its predecessor the Universitaire Faculteiten Sint-Ignatius Antwerpen (UFSIA) joined two other universities to become the public University of Antwerp in 2003.

History

Early history

The roots of UCSIA go back to Sint-Ignatius Handelshogeschool (Saint-Ignatius School for Higher Education in Commerce) founded by the Jesuit (Society of Jesus) in Antwerp in 1852. This was one of the first European business schools to offer formal university degrees. It later opened a Faculty of Literature and Philosophy (including Law) and a Faculty of Political and Social Sciences. It was renamed Universitaire Faculteiten Sint-Ignatius Antwerpen (UFSIA) in the 1960s when the Belgian Government granted it university status.

In the early 1970s UFSIA joined into a confederation with “Rijksuniversitair Centrum Antwerpen” (RUCA) and “Universitaire Instelling Antwerpen” (UIA), public institutions.[1]

In 2003 UFSIA, RUCA, and UIA merged into the University of Antwerp to become the first explicitly pluralistic university in Belgium, offering philosophical, ethical, and spiritual discourse and openness towards religious and intercultural dialogue. It soon became the third largest university in Flanders with 20,000 students.[2]

Since UFSIA became a part of a public university, the Jesuits maintains a think-tank. This think-tank became the University Centre Saint-Ignatius Antwerp (UCSIA), an independent, non-profit, international, and interdisciplinary organisation whose aim is to maintain the Jesuit influence in higher education.[3]

text:
Jerry Chavez hardly ever said a word. A damn shame because he knew so many good ones. Lascivious, licentious, and lethargic all laid latent. He even invented some new ones that would have been a boon to society:

Escube:  to get ready for the day at work or a night out on the town by  shitting, showering, and shaving

(hygienically speaking the best order to perform them in).

Potanic: any item possessing the potency of Titanic proportions.

Yet, Jerry's laconic manner cursed the air with the language of a mundane nature: shit, fuck, double-fuck, cock, bitch, hell, that 'c' word, Jesus, and sugar. All paltry words and a pantry one too.

Jerry would spend most of his time creating the most wonderful worlds. Staying alive it might seem only to live in his daydreams. That was until the gift bag came.

Jerry, returning to his cheap motel-style apartment complex from an appointment with a doctor, found a lavishly adorned gift bag on his welcome mat. “Is it my birthday,” he thought. Jerry looked at his watch. “No, much too cold to be my birthday.” Truly placing a temperature gauge on a watch is a brilliant idea, you are able to see how cold it is outside which helps you to realize if you have dressed appropriately. Or in this case it helped Jerry realize that this present was too early or much too late for his July birthday. Without a reason for the gift bag coming to mind Jerry still took it into his somnolently decorated apartment. Jerry was never one to look a gift horse in the mouth, mainly because the giving of horses as presents seemed to have fallen out of fashion. At least that is in the circles Jerry ran in. Although the only circles Jerry ran in was down at the high school. But this was not a horse track. And obviously it's not the right track for getting a horse either. But I digress, actually looking back on how long that tangent was it would be more appropriate to say I trigressed or even quadgressed.

Jerry in the meantime had grabbed himself a beer and sat down on his couch with the gift bag. He said something to himself which I intend was “Go for it you pussy.” and then he opened the gift bag. The first thing he found was what seemed to be a normal everyday yellow, Ticonderoga, number 2 pencil. Next was a brown leather bound journal, with which one would assume was to be written in with the pencil. The card followed. Jerry opened it with no haste, and read only this:

What you write with this Pencil into this Journal will come

true in that you will be able to fully participate in it so long

as you pop one of those Purple Pills.

Jerry daunted but determined checked the back of the card. Exactly as he thought, it was not a Hallmark. He now turned his attention to the dilemma of the pills. That is, where are they? The card's removal had emptied the gift bag. But as Jerry went to grab the bag again he heard the distinct sound of pills rattling in a bottle. And there they were. The purple pills were in his left hand.

Jerry removed the magic lid from the magic bottle, and took out the magic cotton swab, and grabbed a magic pill. Jerry said something silently to himself which I intend was “Hell, why not.” and then swallowed the pill with the help of a swig from his beer bottle.

Its taste was not bad. Jerry now felt he had done something wrong. Maybe, he was to have written first. But before he was to become too worried a story came to him and he began to write.

It was a very good story. In the vein of Rip Van Winkle. A young lad, who Jerry would play, fell asleep on top of a hill overlooking a dystopian city. He was very unhappy in this world. He wished he could change it not just for himself, but for all. When the young man awoke he found himself on top of the hill looking down though on an unfamiliar city. He came down from his mount and walked around this new and as he found better city. Being quite confused he rested on a park bench. An old man seeing this unnerved young man sat down beside him hoping he could assuage the youth's pain. Jerry told him about the world he came from and how happy and surprised he was to see this one. Jerry asked how it became such and how it maintained its wonderfulness. The old man, who was quite knowledgeable, told him the story. He told the version that was not too long to allow the listener to become uninterested and not too short as to leave anything of importance out. It was a very good story and at the end of this he asked Jerry a question, “Shouldn't you be on your way?”

“To where?” Jerry replied.

“Home.” said the old man. Jerry paused. He believed senility had finally caught up to the old man.

“I have no home here.”

This made the old man smile making Jerry now certain of the old man's brain being gone. The old man said, “Then maybe here is not the place you should stay. Your home is there. You might want to go back and share with others the story that you have found here.”

Upon hearing this Jerry knew what he must do. He would return to his dystopian world and share this gift, the one he was given, with others.

As great as this would have been you must already know that this is not what happened. Our world has no magic pencil or magic paper. Neither does it have magic pills. Just regular pills which purpose is to help. The kind you might get after an appointment with a psychiatrist. Pencils and journals with which we can write our feelings and thoughts in and one day share with others.

No, Jerry never came back to our world. Damn shame too for he had so many wonderful stories to tell.

Trump at a campaign rally.

An interesting data point from a new poll Wednesday suggests that Donald Trump's presidential campaign arc is now more closely mirroring that of a traditional front-runner, rather than that of an insurgent fad.

The ABC/Washington Post poll found that a plurality of likely Republican primary voters now believe Trump will be their party's nominee.

According to the poll, 43% of registered GOP voters nationally believe that Trump has the greatest chance of winning the nomination. His closest competitors in the poll are retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, who was the choice of 16% of GOP voters, and former Gov. Jeb Bush of Florida, who had 12%.

When the Post/ABC survey last asked the question, in March, Trump did not register. Bush received 35% of the vote then, 25 points ahead of his next-closest competitor, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas.

The shift could be significant. A 2012 study, pointed to by The New York Times' David Leonhardt, found that measuring who voters think will win is actually a much better indicator of the eventual winner of an election than gauging who has the most voter support.

Most polling experts and political pundits have written off Trump's consistently large leads among Republicans in every major poll for more than three months.

Analysts have cited historical precedents that show that unconventional presidential candidates like Trump, who lacks the backing of the party establishment and experience running in national political contests, struggle to win even if they experience a groundswell of support in the early stages of the nomination process.

Some of the consistent warning signs pointed to by these analysts remain. Trump still loses in most head-to-head matchups with other major candidates, according to a recent Economist/YouGov poll. And 100 days still remain until the first caucuses in Iowa and the first primary in New Hampshire, where many voters are still undecided.

Princeton University polling expert Sam Wang suggested that Trump's still-high unfavorable rating among GOP voters may prevent him from rising beyond the fervent base of support he has built within the party.

"It can be hard to tell from polls alone who has staying power," Wang told Business Insider last week. "As a speculation, I think he might persist in the 20-30% range for some time, and that another candidate could pull ahead of that objectively low number."

But there are still growing signs that even if Republicans don't support Trump, they still think he is a legitimate candidate who is the best to handle certain issues.

A CNN poll released last week found that Trump was by far the most popular candidate among Republican primary voters in two key states — Nevada and South Carolina — on numerous issues. That CNN poll showed Republicans trusted Trump over any other candidate to handle the economy, foreign policy, dealing with the militant group ISIS, "changing" Washington, and illegal immigration.

The CNN poll also revealed that 47% of Republican voters in those states believed Trump had the best chance of winning a general election in November, almost three times the level of the next-closest candidate, Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida.

And an NBC/Wall Street Journal poll released this week also showed Trump's remarkable rise in another area. Almost 60% support of likely Republican voters nationally said they could see themselves supporting Trump, putting him behind only Carson and Rubio in that field. In June, only 32% of Republican voters said they could see themselves supporting Trump.
