Jules Ferry

Dans le jardin des Tuileries, devant l'imposante statue de l'auteur des lois sur l'école «gratuite, laïque et obligatoire», le président a délivré «un message de confiance à l'Education nationale» et réservé ses «premiers mots de président de la République» à l'ensemble des personnels. Il a tenu à s'adresser «aux professeurs des écoles, aux enseignants du secondaire, aux universitaires, aux chercheurs» mais «aussi à tous les agents des plus modestes jusqu'aux plus prestigieux», soulignant que l'Ecole «attendait de la considération de la nation».

GE’s Brand New 100W Equivalent LED Bulb Illuminates the Future of Lighting May 7, 2012 Engineers at GE’s NELA Park in East Cleveland, Ohio, have spent a century building better light bulbs. When NELA opened in 1911, it became the world’s first industrial park, a distinction that earned it a place on the National Register of Historic Places. But now a new kind of history is taking place at NELA, the kind that will soon dispatch the incandescent light bulb down the same road traveled by the LP and the VCR. “This is an evolution,” says Glenn Kuenzler, a lighting engineer at NELA. He and his team of researchers are making sure that the GE bulb, whose legacy stretches back to Edison, is fit to survive.

Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes … known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few.… No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.— James Madison, Political Observations, 1795
