Urgent Plea from Ojibwa Warrior: Supporters needed at Sacred Eagle Rock in northern Michigan to help prevent Kennecott Sulfide MineAbove, Photo of Sitting Bull on American Flag atop Sacred Eagle RockAmerican Indians and non-natives are encouraged to visit the northern Michigan campsite that is blocking a sulfide mine - as in sulfuric acid - from being built under Sacred Eagle RockLevi Tadgerson, an Anishinaabe man who loves and respects the environment, narrates this video that invites everyone to join the encampment at the base of Eagle Rock - the sooner the better because a confrontation between mine owners, the police and those protecting Sacred Eagle Rock could happen at any moment.EarthHealingTV youtubeUrgent: Join tribes, others who areblocking Sacred Eagle Rock from mining giant Kennecotthttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zv542P75-fwPlease watch 3 minute video by Tadgerson - who is a 22-year-old Northern Michigan University senior and member of Bay Mills Indian Community. The video was shot on 4/29/2010.Playing A "Thank you" Drum is Elder Bobby "Bullet" St. Germaine of Iron River, MIIn the video, you will see the many amazing things happening to protect Sacred Eagle Rock including an appearance by popular American Indian singer/songwriter Elder Bobby "Bullet" St. Germaine of Iron River, MI - an elder of the Lac Du Flambeau tribe in Wisconsin.Germain, who sings and leads a thank you drum under the shadow of Sacred Eagle Rock, says all those helping at the standoff are "warriors" in a larger cause."Warriors" who are protecting Sacred Eagle RockPhotos by Greg PetersonThe Blue "Water Flag" that hangs atop Sacred Eagle RockEagle Rock has been a sacred place to hold ceremonies since the Ojibwa tribe was created and was seeded to the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community (KBIC) under treaties with the American government.The multi-tribe encampment, that could be raided by mine guards and police at any moment, is blocking the Eagle Mine Project by international mining giant Kennecott Minerals and its parent company Rio Tinto.KBIC member Glen Bressette Jr., 38, of Harvey, Michigan brought a rare legally-permitted Eagle has been received to award feathers to those who honor their tribes by protecting sacred Eagle Rock and other honorable actions.Cliff's edge atop Sacred Eagle Rock in Marquette County, MichiganDozens of people from numerous tribes have spent days at the camp - and many others have brought supplies to the remote site on dirt roads about an hour from any city.The state of Michigan has claimed ownership to the land - but the lease with Kennecott only takes effect when the mine has secured all permits.Opponents say the mine must still get a federal EPA groundwater permit - but under a technicality the mine owners say they do not need the permit and recently put up “No Trespassing” signs.The American Indians rushed to the sight after Kennecott ordered the arrest of longtime mine opponent Cynthia Pryor of Big Bay, MI on April 20, 2010.Pryor was out for her usual walk on the Yellow Dog Plains when she spotted a bulldozer - and refused to leave saying the mine still had an EPA permit pending.Pryor is a member of the Yellow Dog Watershed Preserve.Among the Ojibwa tribes from Michigan and Wisconsin on sight are KBIC, Lac Du Flambeau, and Bay Mills Indian Community.As of April 30th, the mine guards has not confronted the campers - but the day before ordered no still or video cameras are allowed. That has campers worried about why what they do not want videotaped or documented - thus nerves are high.When a reporter arrived a short time later - the campers allowed him on the sight and this story was videotaped.For more information call:1-906-401-0109The video was produced by the nonprofit Cedar Tree Institute in Marquette, MI, which has founded numerous youth, faith and Native American related environment projects.Bobby "Bullet" St. Germaineof Iron River, MI - a member of the Lac Du Flambeau tribe inWisconsin.He is a well-know longtime nativesinger:http://www.bobbybullet.comPetition to support Cynthia Pryorwww.savethewildup.org/jailed/petitionYellow Dog Watershed Preserve:http://www.yellowdogwatershed.org/blogSave the Wild U.P.

Memristor and Memristive Systems Symposium (Part 2)
[LESS INFO] 6 VIEWS | ADDED 00:00:00 11/22/08
In 1971, Leon O. Chua published a seminal paper on the missing basic circuit element. Leon O. Chua and Sung-Mo Kang published a paper, in 1976, that described a large class of devices and systems they called memristive devices and systems. Just recently, Stan Williams and his research team at HP Labs unveiled a two-terminal titanium dioxide nanoscale device in Nature magazine that exhibited memristor characteristics.
This symposium will explore the potential of memristors and memristive systems as they advance state of the art nano-electronic circuits. Program (Part 2)
Memristors as Synapses in a Neural Computing Architecture
Greg Snider , Senior Architect, Information and Quantum Systems Laboratory, Hewlett-Packard Laboratories
Prospects and Challenges of Redox-based Memristive RRAM Concpets
Rainer Waser , RWTH Aachen University at Research Center Juelich, Germany
The event is co-sponsored by UC Merced and UC Berkeley in cooperation with the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) . The Symposium is funded by the National Science Foundation .
