Robert Forman (1975, A ) Robert Forman (1975, A) writes, " OPENING RECEPTION Thursday, November 12, 6-8 pm 39 East 78 Street A survey exhibition exploring the use of stitching and thread in contemporary art will be on view at LeilaTaghinia-Milani Heller Gallery from November 12 through December 19, 2009. IN STITCHES, curated by Beth Rudin DeWoody will present works in various media by more than 50 U.S. and international contemporary artists. IN STITCHES focuses on both well-known and emerging artists who incorporate stitching and thread as prominent features in the concept and structure of their work. The artists' process includes wrapping and embroidery as well as assemblage. The exhibition title is a double entendre of the Shakespearean idiom, and now common expression, when one is laughing so hard that it causes physical pain. While some of the work presents elements of humor, other work explores the role of women in society or questions the threads or painful truths of our social and moral existence. Threads literally and metaphorically form the connections which tie the artists' works together. The exhibition will include work by Ghada Amer, Ramazan Bayrakoglu, Louise Bourgeois, Nancy Brooks Brody, Ambreen Butt, David Byrne,Margarita Cabrera,Orly Cogan, Adam Cohen,Anita Cooke, Matthew Cox, E.V.

Next to food, nothing is more important to the human population than shelter. I bring together designers, builders, developers, and suppliers to investigate the future, while reviewing the past on my weekly internet broadcast "Burning Down The House." Streaming live every Thursday evening at 8PM Eastern the show can be heard at http://www.heritageradionetwork.com/programs/18-Burning-Down-The-House or as podcasts, available through iTunes. With architectural practice at a turning point in which the architects’ historical role as “master builder” is very much in question, the interested layperson is right to be curious about how our population will move forward in building practices over the next century. Through engaging and informed conversation, we bring together people who are making major contributions to our built landscape in lively hour-long conversations.    Submitted on Oct 20 2009 James Grant (1980, CHE ) James Grant (1980, CHE) writes, "Granted Patent #7,491,003 B2 "Method & Apparatus for Thermal Development with Vapor Treatment" in February of 2009 for work on DuPont Imaging Systems machine development."   Submitted on Oct 15 2009 James Grant (1980, CHE ) James Grant (1980, CHE) writes, "Re-elected as Chair of the technical committee at HTRI (Heat Transfer Research Inc)."   Submitted on Oct 15 2009 Jacob Appel (1961, EE ) "Anne M.
