Світлана Юріївна Загинайченко () — українська вчена, фізик, доктор фізико-математичних наук, яка зробила внесок у розвиток фізики конденсованого стану речовини.

Життєпис
Народилася 10 серпня 1957 року. Мати, Зінаїда Альфредівна Матисіна (1927 р. н.), заслужена професор Дніпропетровського національного університету, доктор фізико-математичних наук, у 90-річному віці читала 4-годинні лекції і займалася науковою діяльністю в ІПМ НАН України.

Від 1964 до 1993 року проживала в Дніпропетровську. 1964 року вступила до Спеціалізованої середньої школи № 9 з поглибленим вивченням англійської мови (4 предмети вивчала англійською мовою), в якій навчалася до 1973 року. 1974 року закінчила середню освіту в школі № 19, з відзнакою склавши випускні іспити.

Закінчила з червоним дипломом Дніпропетровський державний університет за спеціальністю фізика (1974—1979). У 1979—1982 навчалася в аспірантурі Дніпропетровського металургійного інституту імені Л. І. Брежнєва. В результаті десятирічної роботи молодшим науковим співробітником у Дніпропетровському металургійному інституті в 1992 році здобула звання доцента.

1984 року захистила кандидатську дисертаційну роботу на тему «Розчинність, магнетизм і перерозподіл атомів сплавів гексагональних структур, що упорядковуються» у Львівському державному університеті. Професор Ярослав Йосифович Дутчак високо оцінив результати дисертаційної роботи. За триденне перебування у Львові не тільки захистила дисертацію, але й підготувала весь пакет документів для їх надсилання до Вищої атестаційної комісії (ВАК), за що її називали у Львові «Моторна дівка». За кандидатською дисертаційною роботою у всесоюзних і міжнародних журналах було опубліковано 20 наукових робіт. Результати досліджень апробовані на конференціях, конгресах, симпозіумах, школах-семінарах, нарадах у Дніпрі, Ашгабаті, Красноярську, Іркутську, Свердловську, Львові, Донецьку, Києві, Івано-Франківську та Піттсбурзі (США). Від 1983 до 1993 року працювала в Дніпропетровському металургійному інституті імені Л. І. Брежнєва.

1993 року в Києві пройшла за конкурсом на посаду старшого наукового співробітника в Інститут проблем матеріалознавства НАН України. Там очолила науково-теоретичну групу «Фізико-математичні методи дослідження властивостей твердих тіл». За значні досягнення в галузі наукових досліджень відзначена грамотою, підписаною академіком В. В. Скороходом. Після отримання звання старшого наукового співробітника працювала заступницею завідувача відділом «Водневого матеріалознавства і хімії вуглецевих наноструктур» № 67 в ІПМ НАН України. Керівник відділу № 67 в ІПМ НАН України Щур Дмитро Вікторович був однодумцем у всіх її наукових і творчих роботах. Вони випустили низку спільних наукових досліджень і монографій. Захистивши докторську дисертацію, Загинайченко стала провідною науковою співробітницею відділу № 67 ІПМ НАН України. 1994 року призначена на посаду заступниці директора Інституту водневої та сонячної енергетики (IHSE). Матеріали дисертаційної докторської роботи доповідалися і обговорювалися на 64 конференціях, симпозіумах, конгресах, нарадах у 23 країнах, зокрема в США, Канаді, Франції, Італії, Німеччині, Австралії, Японії, Норвегії, Греції, Кореї, Китаї, Латвії, Таджикистані, Росії, Туреччині, Польщі та інших. Захист дисертаційної роботи проходив у Інституті металофізики ім. Г. В. Курдюмова Національної академії наук України 2004 року.

Загинайченко мала ряд вихованців ще в Дніпропетровському металургійному інституті. В один день 2014 року брати близнюки Анатолій і Олександр Золотаренки під керівництвом Загинайченко захистили дисертації кандидатів хімічних наук, продовжуючи слідувати її науково-дослідним шляхом. Ще з 2001 року Золотаренки допомагали в наукових дослідженнях Загинайченко.

Загинайченко загинула 23 листопада 2015 року о другій годині ночі на 59-му році життя у Дніпропетровську.

Наукові інтереси
Вже зі студентських років захоплювалася науковими дослідженнями з трудомісткими розрахунками на базі молекулярно-кінетичних уявлень, вивчаючи фізичні властивості кристалів. Професор, доктор фізико-математичних наук Геннадій Михайлович Воробйов, у майбутньому її науковий керівник, відразу запропонував їй розв'язати задачу з визначення рівноважної структури поверхні кристала, з чим Загинайченко впоралася. Після цього продовжувала розв'язувати низку задач з визначення поверхневої енергії для різних кристалів гексагональних і кубічних структур з урахуванням анізотропії і кореляції, встановила їх температурну і концентраційну залежності. Подібні обсяги науково-дослідницьких робіт дозволили випустити монографію і доповнити докторську дисертаційну роботу. Основна галузь наукових інтересів Загинайченко — розробка статистичних термодинамічних теорій атомного впорядкування і фізичних властивостей сплавів різних структур. Тематичні підходи до досліджень Загинайченко проводилися в рамках школи академіка Адріана Анатолійовича Смирнова, розроблялася статистична теорія фазових перетворень у твердих тілах, вивчалися їх механічні, молекулярні, теплові, електричні, магнітні, дипольні, еластичні і багато інших властивостей. Проводилось порівняння результатів теоретичних розрахунків з літературними експериментальними даними.

Після 1993 року, коли Загинайченко очолила науково-теоретичну групу «Фізико-математичні методи дослідження твердих тіл», у відділі № 67 ІПМ НАН України, вона завершила багато науково-дослідних робіт, розпочатих у Дніпропетровську. Один з плодів праці Загинайченко — розроблена статистико-термодинамічна теорія концентраційно стимульованих структурних фазових перетворень з урахуванням впливу домішки третього компонента заміщення і впровадження, термічних і структурних вакансій, бівакансій, комплексій і краудіонів впровадження. Вивчалися фізичні явища і властивості поверхні кристалів, дефекти структури кристалів і їх вплив на властивості. Загинайченко з групою однодумців створила низку патентних робіт в Україні (2002—2004). 2001 року зі співавторами випустила свою першу монографію «Фулерени — основа матеріалів майбутнього», яка стала першою російськомовною монографією про фулерени на всьому просторі СНД. Тираж в 3500 примірників розлетівся в перші ж місяці, що вимагало неодноразового перевидання книги. Загинайченко не тільки займалася науковими дослідженнями і виданням наукових монографій, а й стала співавтором перекладу з англійської на українську мову книги «Сонячно-воднева енергетика», яка стала першою подібною книгою українською мовою 2006 року.

Була знайома з такими вченими як Віктор Іванович Трефілов (Україна), Борис Євгенович Патон (Україна),  (США), Валерій Володимирович Скороход (Україна),  (Ізраїль),  (Росія), Ф. Е. Вагнер (Німеччина), Б. Барановський (Польща), Д.К Росс (Велика Британія), М. Керімов (Азербайджан), А. П. Шилов (Росія) та інші; з лауреатом Нобелівської премії за відкриття фулеренів Сером Волтером Гаролдом Крото (Велика Британія); Ейдзі Осавою (Японія), який передбачив існування фулерену 1971 року; В. Кретчмером (Німеччина) — першим, хто зі своєю командою 1990 року розробив метод отримання грамових кількостей фулеренів шляхом випаровування графітових електродів в електричній дузі в атмосфері гелію за низького тиску.

William Watson: Turns out the STEM 'gender gap' isn't a gap at all
It's not that women aren't interested in STEM; it's that men aren't interested in non-STEM subjects
William Watson
Oct 13, 2017 • October 13, 2017 • 4 minute read
Students walk through a park at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario.

A major concern of education policy-makers is the gender gap that (in Ontario) has only 30.3 per cent of women university undergraduates taking science, technology, engineering and mathematics (or "STEM") programs while 42.5 per cent of men do. Because STEM jobs typically pay better, you might think this gap contributes to the widely-decried salary gap between men and women who work full time.
Except it turns out there really isn't a STEM gap. Not in Ontario, certainly, but more than likely not in most other jurisdictions, either. Women who come out of high school with the math and science prerequisites for STEM programs are only slightly less likely than men to go into such programs. And women are only slightly less likely to get STEM prep in high school, with the result that women are essentially half (49 per cent, to be exact) of the STEM students in university.

So where's the gap? And should we mind the gap (if we do find one)?
There is in fact a gap. But it may be more statistical artefact than social problem
There is in fact a gap. But it may be more statistical artefact than social problem. The numbers quoted so far are correct: Despite women filling half of STEM spaces at university a markedly lower share of women are in such programs than is true for men. How can that be? The answer is that among those high-school students who don't get STEM prep, many more women than men nevertheless go on to university.
All this, though not necessarily the conclusions I draw from it, comes from a recent study by economists David Card of the University of California (Berkeley) and Abigail Payne, formerly of McMaster now of the University of Melbourne. They looked at the university programs and high-school preparation of 400,000 entrants to Ontario universities from 2005 to 2012, as well as detailed data on the courses and grades of students who were in Grade 9 in 2005-6 as they worked their way to high school graduation. (You've got to hope this very big data was well encrypted!)
In total in Ontario, 44 per cent of women go to university versus only 32 per cent of males. As a result, fully 57.5 per cent of undergraduate students are now female. But, exaggerating drastically to make a point, if there are only three groups of students—women in STEM, women in non-STEM, and men in STEM — then in such a world it's simple arithmetic that a smaller percentage of women will be in STEM than men. In reality, of course, there actually are male undergraduates who don't prepare for or take STEM programs, but disproportionate numbers of non-STEM men just don't go to university.
It is not clear there is a problem here
It's not clear there is a problem here. Students are free to choose their own programs. Schools can provide good information for them about their choices in terms of university and employment. But if there is a problem, it's not that women aren't interested in STEM; it's that men aren't interested in poetry — or languages or philosophy or art or all the other non-STEM subjects.
Among Card and Payne's other results:
There's only a small difference in STEM preparation between female and male high-school graduates: 14.5 per cent versus 15.3 per cent.
High-school students who are STEM-prepped both do go on to university and do take STEM programs and on both scores the differences between men and women are minimal.
Males and females tend to prep for different STEM programs
Males and females tend to prep for different STEM programs. Females are more likely than males to take biology in high school (81.5 per cent versus 51.7) while males are more likely to take physics (62.6 per cent versus 31.9). Card and Payne count nursing as a STEM program, both because it has typical STEM math and science prerequisites and because health sciences workers make STEM-level salaries after graduation.
Girls have slightly higher high-school marks overall though more so in non-STEM subjects, so the fact that many girls do opt for non-STEM university programs may reflect comparative advantage rather than anything else.
Probably the most policy-relevant observation Card and Payne's study points to is that lots of high-school students, especially boys, effectively opt out of both STEM and university itself by choosing Grade 9 courses that don't lead to the Grade 10, 11 and 12 courses that would let them into university STEM programs. Ontario's schools might want to let students delay their decisions by prolonging their math and science prep by a year or two and by giving them good information — if it exists or can be generated — about which courses tend to lead to which kinds of jobs. If they can make that information available in a way that can grab students' attention, i.e., via a cell phone app, that would probably work best.

Mike George for Supreme Court
Mike George grew up right outside of Pittsburgh in McKeesport with his parents, and eight brothers and sisters. Although his family was not wealthy, Mike did not let finances dictate his future. He paid his way through school by bagging groceries, washing dishes and working in the steel mills. He also spent summers working at Kennywood Park, where he served as a police officer.
Mike graduated from Washington and Jefferson and went on to attend Dickinson School of Law in Central Pennsylvania. After moving to Adams County, Mike started a private practice and met his wife, Karen. Mike would later go on to be elected as the county's first full-time District Attorney, and then as a Judge on the Adams County Court of Common Pleas. He currently serves as the President Judge of the court. Mike has worked within the judicial system to reform the courts and make sure that the Judiciary is accountable to taxpayers. He has heard thousands of cases, including a capital case where the defendant shot and killed a member of law enforcement. Judge George ultimately sentenced the defendant to death.

Watch Now: WGN News at Ten WGN TV Schedule
R.Kelly adds attorney known for plea deals
Posted 9:09 PM, November 4, 2019, by WGN Web Desk and Julie Unruh, Updated at 10:42PM, November 4, 2019
CHICAGO — This weekend, the premier defense attorney known for his ability to cut a deal with the feds joined singer R. Kelly's legal team.
Jeff Steinback was one of the many attorneys helping Kelly when he was facing charges 20 years ago.
Steve Greenberg, Kelly's lead attorney confirmed to WGN News Monday that Steinback is now advising the singer.
"We want to make sure when we are talking to Robert, we're telling him the risks and telling him what all his options are," Greenberg said. "It certainly does not mean that he is looking to plead guilty."
Steinback has represented the likes of Frank Calabrese Jr., the son of a Chicago mob boss, Stuart Levine, a political insider tied to disgraced Governor Rod Blagojevich, and Scott Fawell, a former aide to ex-governor George Ryan.
"We're putting together a team of great lawyers and we're going to fight," Greenberg said.
Steinback is known as a master deal cutter for the defendant who doesn't want to go to trial. The deal he or she cuts with the feds is supposed to result in a lesser sentence.
Arguably Steinback knows the federal sentencing guidelines better than anyone in Chicago.
If Steinback is seen entering the Dirksen Federal Building it usually means only one thing: The defendant is giving up and is preparing to enter a guilty plea.
Greenberg said it is not the case this time.
"I don't think anyone should read anything into this other than we want to be fully informed," he said. "We want to know all of the risks Robert faces when he goes to trial."
Kelly's legal team is comprised of four different prosecutors' offices in three different states.
"Robert Kelly has done great things, made great music, done great things," Greenberg said. "He's being treated differently than anyone else has ever been treated and he shouldn't be."

Norway's First Animal Police Service Introduced
NOAH – for animal rights: Take crime against animals seriously! #AnimalpoliceNOW! (Photo: NOAH)
The launch of Norway's first animal police service has become reality.
Last week, the pilot project began operating in Sør-Trøndelag Police District, and along with the Norwegian Food Safety Authorities, there will be an increased focus on violence and abuse against animals.
– By strengthening the police and the Food Safety Authority's efforts in identifying crime against animals, we want to improve animal welfare in Norway, said police attorney Tina Mariell Værnes to NRK.no during the presentation of the project.
Several ministers were present, and the government has budgeted three million Kroner (approx. 366.000 dollars) to the project that will last for three years.
For Norway, it is a major improvement in the fight against animal crime. So far, three police officers are involved in the project.
The aim is to develop collaborative methods linking the police more closely to the Norwegian Food Safety Authorities. Previously, they have spent much time researching and reporting cases to the police.
Few cases have been reported and even fewer are convicted of crimes against animals.
In March, 92 dead cows was discovered in a barn in Fosnes municipality in Nord-Trøndelag County. A farmer with big personal problems had let the animals starve to death. The animals had probably been unattended since Christmas.
The farmer risks a sentence of up to three years in prison and may lose the right of having animals.
Until now, the penalty levels have been low, but both the Norwegian State attorney and politicians want stricter penalties for animal cruelty.

As long as Millennium Martial Arts has existed, we have believed that part of the spirit of Karate is to be charitable and work toward helping and protecting those that need it. One way in which we have demonstrated this is in the various charitable and community events that we host, participate or fundraise for. Over the years, we have hosted Blood Drives at the Dojo, Kick-a-thons for Children's Hospital, Adopt-a-Family food and clothing drives, Art For Healing (art supplies for children that are experiencing extended stays at hospitals), and we donate our time for community Family Fun Nights, events for the Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Daisy Troops and more. Over the past 5 years, Millennium Martial Arts and its instructors and students have sent teams to participate in MS Bike Rides and MS Walks raising over $50,000 for this charity alone.
We are happy to participate in other organizations fundraising efforts as well, and often contribute to their auctions and other charity events.


The British and Irish Lions snatched a late draw to even the three-game test series with New Zealand All Blacks to one win a piece and one draw.
Owen Farrell, the English center who has Irish parentage, showed he had ice water in his veins with a 77th minute penalty to even the game 15-15.
Farrell was the unlikely hero for he had a very difficult first quarter culminating in a stray pass that cost the Lions a try.
New Zealand had never been beaten at Eden Park in Auckland, and they will feel deeply aggrieved about a 79th minute decision which saw the referee overturn his initial decision to award a penalty in a very kickable position and award a scrum instead to New Zealand.
The Lions will be by far the happier side with this outcome, given that the All Blacks were at home, easily won the first game in the series and looked to be in charge when they lead 12-3 in the final game.
Warren Gatland, the Lions coach, showed up at his after match press conference with a red clown's nose in a clear dig at the New Zealand media who had labeled him a clown earlier in the series.
He had particular praise for Lions captain Sam Warburton who had managed to change the referee's mind with that last second decision to award a scrum and not a penalty.


Save you money on oil changes: 12 month/25,000 miles!
AMSOIL is designed, not refined.
It is made from a patented formula and process and no other oil - even so-called "synthetics" - can beat it in real-world performance. Our lubricants last an average of 11 times longer than petroleum. Our Truck Engine oil was independently proven to increase MPG by 8.2% over standard truck oils - which can mean tens of thousands of dollars saved in fuel costs!
AMSOIL lubricants are chemically designed to be the best, from the ground up. Only the purest, highest quality chemical components meet the high standards of AMSOIL. Petroleum based oils, on the other hand, start with a dirty organic goo that requires extensive filtering and refining in order to obtain a base stock that is clean enough for lubrication. This is not a precise nor totally efficient process yielding basestocks of widely varying quality. Even other oils calling themselves "synthetic" are actually made from petroleum!
Oil can then be "sold" to the public via big advertising budgets (like the big oil companies have) Amsoil, on the other hand, uses a tight consumer-network and publishes standardized technical properties (see below) that prove what the product can really do under real world conditions. It also proves that Amsoil is Better than Oil!
And Amsoil is better for the environment! Since our lubricants outlast petroleum-based products by an average of 11 times, that means 11 times LESS Pollutants, and a better running engine is cooler and more efficient which means less exhaust pollutants too! Not to mention less discarded plastic. And Amsoil is increasing bio-degradability.
We are determined to be a "green", earth-friendly company.
Opportunity Knocks! Now you can get on the "inside track"
AMSOIL publishes their performance data, as well as that of competing brands, right on their packaging! AMSOIL publishes these technical properties to allow the informed consumer to make the best choice. By comparing the operational characteristics of lubricants and filters against competing brands, it is clear Amsoil is a far better product.
The Independent laboratories of ASTM (American Society of Testing Materials) and SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) standardized test parameters are used to prove the superiority of the AMSOIL line.
Email Us to request technical data sheets for your particular application.
Molecular Engineering for Modern Engines: New lean burn, high output engines often run hotter than 240° F. New electronically controlled automatic transmissions have less aerodynamic cooling and are extremely viscosity-sensitive. AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants are chemically engineer for thermal stability. They deliver dependable, long-lasting performance and protection that helps equipment last longer.
The Right Environmental Choice: Conservative estimates put the amount of waste oil dumped into the environment each year at over 240 million gallons. If everyone used long-drain synthetic AMSOIL, the environment would be a lot better off.
Reduces Oil Consumption: AMSOIL additive packages for synthetic work with the oil to keep it clean and running efficiently. AMSOIL lubes don't boil off like petroleum: they stay inside your engine, lubricating, cooling and protecting. Lower oil consumption and more efficient operations also mean lower emissions, another environmental benefit.
Better fuel economy: AMSOIL synthetic lubricants have higher lubricity than conventional lubes. That means less friction on moving parts, less heat, less wear and fuel savings averaging 3% to 5%.
Unbeatable Cold Temperature Performance: Many petroleum oils thicken and gel at temperatures as high as 25° F. AMSOIL Lubricants are synthetic; they are molecularly engineered with pour points as low as -75°F. This cold temperature fluidity gives motorists easier winter starting and fast lubrication to vital engine parts. This also provides better cold-weather fuel economy.
Finest Filtration In The World: AMSOIL filters are unmatched in both efficiency and long service life. For example, AMSOIL Full Flow Filters Feature absolute removal of 5-20 micron dirt particles (responsible for causing 60% of oil engine wear) particles far to small for conventional filters to remove.
Quality for a Wide Range of Applications: AMSOIL uses only the best lubricant bas stocks and additive systems. AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants and Filtration Products are applicable to a wide variety of automotive, commercial and industrial equipment. Being "the first in Synthetics" didn't make AMSOIL the best, but, being the best has kept AMSOIL first.
Unexcelled Customer Service: AMSOIL retains a full staff of chemists, engine specialists, filtration experts and lubrication industry consultants. They are available to answer questions and assist with special projects and applications.

Former Abortion Clinic Owner Leads Democratic Candidates for Pennsylvania Governor
Steven Ertelt Nov 26, 2013 | 5:59PM Harrisburg, PA
Want to know which candidate for governor Pennsylvania Democrats prefer? According to a new survey released today, the answer is a former owner of an abortion clinic.
Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate Allyson Schwartz refuses to say if, when she ran an abortion business in the state, she would refer women to Kermit Gosnell's infamous abortion facility. But she is leading all Democratic candidates for governor.
From a poll:
Things are pretty wide open when it comes to the Democratic primary for Governor. The leader is undecided, with 27% of voters unsure on who they want the nominee to be. Allyson Schwartz gets 21% to 17% for Jack Wagner, 10% for Rob McCord, 9% for Katie McGinty, 8% for John Hanger, 4% for Ed Pawlowski, and 2% each for Tom Wolf, JoEllen Litz, and Max Myers. With support split so many ways and so many voters undecided even someone like Wolf could come back to win given how important money and the ability to communicate statewide will be.
CLICK LIKE IF YOU'RE PRO-LIFE!
Schwartz, if she becomes the nominee, would face pro-life Governor Tom Corbett who, ironically, signed the law to stop any further Gosnell-type abortion clinics from operating and is holding the abortion industry accountable for following state law. Pennsylvania long looked the other way for decades as Kermit Gosnell killed babies in brutal abortion procedures that looked more like infanticides and ran a disgustingly dilapidated abortion clinic.
Schwartz co-founded and served as the Executive Director of an abortion facility in Philadelphia for 13 years. The facility performed about 1,500 abortions in its final year of operation before declaring bankruptcy.
Other area abortion clinics frequently referred women to Gosnell's Philadelphia abortion clinic for abortions later than they would do. But the gubernatorial hopeful has been silent on whether hers did.


The fact that people can start their own businesses from the comfort of their homes today has resulted in an exponential increase in the number of online retailers. However, people often think that starting an online business is as easy as creating a website, receiving the orders, processing them, and counting the cash. What they don't realize is that handling the entire shipping section of the business is one of the most challenging tasks. When you mismanagement the movement of your processed orders, you end up spending more money than you should on your supply chain.
The first thing you have to know is that when you start an online retailing business, customers can access you not only from your state, but from any part of the country too. You can't manage all the orders from one shipping center while charging the same shipping prices to the customers. You have to make sure you have lots of shipping centers with your inventory so you can send the orders to the customers from the closest ones. If you don't do it and charge your customers entirely for shipping and handling, you are telling them to take their business elsewhere.
When your logistics is being done properly, keeping your inventory full in different shipping centers should save you some money. The biggest problem arises when you have to ship items in bulk. Packaging lots of items requires experts who can save you money here. You could put them all in a box in a disorganized manner and pay a lot of money for shipment or you can package them properly so that you can save a lot of money on every bulk packaging. Furthermore, if you don't have the right supply chain partners, you can't process urgent orders. Same day shipping is something that today's customers take very seriously.
Yes, managing the shipment of your orders and their transportation from one warehouse to another can be quite a task. However, when you have the right partner with you, there is nothing for you to worry. Logitrade is one of the best options you have available when it comes to shipping orders to your customers, moving inventories among warehouses, and selling your products through other retailers. With software-based management of your orders, you are on top of everything. Most importantly, you save the money that can help you build the cash reserve you need to expand your business.
Before you start a business today, you have to understand the complexities of logistics. Every business owner wants to target a large market to make more money. However, as you expand your reach to your customers, you have to deal with a complex supply chain as well. Unless you have a solution to the movement of your ever-increasing orders, you can't think of saving the money for the expansion of your business. Make sure you choose the right logistics partner, provide your customers with a memorable experience, and save money every month on your orders.

Driving north to Marble Canyon, AZ, along US-89.
Painter Logan Maxwell Hagege at dawn, preparing to capture the light and landscape.
Logan's house is at the base of Vermilion Cliffs, a frequent backdrop to his work and a constant source of inspiration.
Setting up for the day, Logan assembles his paintbox. "I believe that an artist's vision should evolve over time — self-examination is important for an artist. I am my toughest critic and am always trying to push myself from being too comfortable in the studio."
Near Lee's Ferry, huge boulders of conglomerate can break off, resulting in formations like this balanced rock.
Logan paints at dusk near Lee's Ferry.
Before starting to work on canvas, Logan works out his compositions and ideas in sketchbooks.
Striding across the top of the wash in Paria Canyon, within the Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness. Desert washes are similar to rivers, but only contain surface water for brief periods of time.
A closer look at the artist's tools.
Logan reclines by the Colorado River in Lee's Ferry, the official beginning of the Grand Canyon. It developed as an important crossing point in the 19th century and today is a favorite spot for fishing, boating, and rafting along the river.
Logan paints his longtime subject, Chesley Goseyun Wilson. This was Logan's first time painting him from life in this location; "The process of painting Chesley in person is great, because of the immediate connection — there's no disconnect from subject to canvas."
The sketch of Chesley begins to take shape. The duo has been partners in this creative process for years — Logan's love of the Arizona landscape evolved to encompass the people that live there, and Chesley's family are often the focus of Logan's paintings.
Chesley is an 87-year-old Apache luthier, flute maker, fiddle singer, dancer, medicine man, silversmith, and former model and actor — he received the National Heritage Fellowship in 1989, and in 1992 he was named an Arizona Indian Living Treasure.
Logan's home, nestled at the base of the Vermilion Cliffs.
Stoking the fire as dusk falls, and the light fails. Logan frequently makes his trips to Arizona alone, intent on spending his time fully absorbed in the landscape.
Logan's time in Marble Canyon is spent photographing and sketching, in preparation for completing his full paintings in Los Angeles — he's been using his Best Made sketchbook to that end since 2015.
Photography by Jason Frank Rothenberg
Artist Logan Maxwell Hagege woke up just before sunrise, ready to catch the light on the Vermilion Cliffs. His days in Arizona are spent capturing
the shifting sun and shadow in sketches and photographs, before jumping back in his car to seek new vistas. Logan lives and works in Los Angeles,
but makes the trip to his house in Marble Canyon, AZ about five times a year in search of inspiration for his paintings. When he found himself
wanting to include the people of the region in his work he connected with LeAnn, a student who introduced him to her uncle, Chesley Goseyun Wilson.
Chesley is an 87-year-old Apache and an artist in his own right. It was a chance meeting that sparked a rich creative partnership — Logan is conscious
of the power of his work to bring awareness to issues of native land conservation and representation. The two men have a remarkably strong
connection to one another, driven in part by a shared connection to the land around them.

'Naked' man arrested in standoff with a police officer at Manchester Twp. motel
A Dover Township man was arrested after a tense standoff with a police officer at a motel room in Manchester Township, according to court documents.
The confrontation happened after police were summoned by the front desk about 8 p.m. Tuesday to the Manchester Township Motel 6, 125 Arsenal Road, for a report of a nude guest who had come into the lobby requesting towels.
A Northern York County Regional Police officer went to the man's room, and he opened the door wearing only underwear, police said. When the officer questioned the guest and asked for ID, he said he didn't have to provide identification and tried to shut the door, according to police.
More:Police: Man suspects wife is cheating, pulls fire alarm at Manchester hotel
More:Police: Florida man exposed himself to housekeeper at a hotel in Manchester Twp.
The officer put his foot forward to prevent the man from closing the door and warned him that he would be arrested if he didn't provide ID, charging documents say.
The man refused again and continued to close the door, police said. The officer then forced his way in, and a "violent struggle" ensued to a point that other guests came out of their rooms to see what was happening, police said.
The officer was eventually able to handcuff the man, who then started screaming and yelling loudly, police said.
He was arrested on charges of indecent exposure, resisting arrest, open lewdness and disorderly conduct. All are misdemeanors.
He was arraigned Wednesday before District Judge Scott Laird and is free on $5,000 bond.

Newswire #54 – 13th Jan 2016. Your weekly roundup and update of Anime Limited related news.
It's time for your latest edition of our weekly Newswire. Full of updates on various Anime Limited related bits and bobs. Read on below.
GENERAL NOTES / NEWS
~ First of all, oh how the best worked out plans can get altered but for good reason. So following the news of the Mobile Suit Gundam Part 2 release date being confirmed last week, today we announce it's actually now going to be two weeks later and released on 8th February. The reason for this was to ensure there was enough time for the Limited Edition art book to be produced. We haven't talked much about the artbook but we've actually embarked on a small upgrade it to that will make the book's build quality better than it was originally going to be. We're sorry it meant it getting shifted by a few weeks, as we know a lot of you are excited to own the remainder of the series, but trust us it will be worth it. You can expect this date to update accordingly with online retailer listings soon.
~ Next on the docket, more Q1 related tidbits. First of all last week we confirmed that Sword Art Online II: Part 3 is set to be released in March. Today we can confirm that the date to note down is 28th March. This date will be reflected with online retailer listings shortly.
Also, we did have a few queries following our last Newswire about how many episodes will be included in our release of Part 3. For those who don't know, the second half of the Sword Art Online II series comprising of 10 episodes total is actually split into two arcs, Calibur and Mother's Rosario. In some territories they've released these as individual arcs, though the Calibur arc itself is only 3 episodes long. Our part 3 release won't just be the Calibur arc, it will include some of Mother Rosario as well. We haven't got the exact configuration confirmed at this time, though we're under the impression it will be five episodes in Part 3 and the remaining five included with Part 4, but as soon as we know for sure we'll let you know.
As per our past Collector's Edition releases for Sword Art Online II: Part 1 & 2, Part 3 will come packed in a rigid case, come with a digipack to store both the Blu-ray and DVD discs and have a book as well packed with information relating the series and interviews as well. Full content details for both the book and the discs is TBC at this time. Expect more news on this release soon.
~ Some of you have been wondering as to the status of Noein: To Your Other Self as we have had it listed as a 25th January release for some time but not really much has been said about it. Unfortunately this due to a delay in approvals so as things stand we can confirm it won't be getting released in January. We're hoping the delay won't be for very long but for now we're going to be marking it as Q1 TBC until further notice.
~ Additionally, and we know some of you have picked up on this already, we can confirm that our release of Fuse: Memoirs of the Hunter Girl has also shifted to later in Q1. We'll be confirming the new date for this soon for the moment we're also marking this as Q1 TBC. The reason this has happened is due to a delay in the authoring of the discs. You'll recall we previously showed you how our release will be presented (see image below.) That is still exactly the same, but the actual discs themselves are still being authored. Please stay tuned for updates on this.
~ Following the confirmation that we'll be releasing standard edition volumes of Kill la Kill this year today we're happy to confirm that Part 1 will be available from 16th March. This will be available as a standard edition DVD and Standard edition Blu-ray. You can expect online retailers to begin listing this for pre-order very soon. As previously mentioned this will come packed in an amaray case with both discs, two for the DVD version and two for the Blu-ray version, inside. It will include the first nine episodes of the series with both the English audio and original Japanese language audio (with English subtitles.)
We're hoping we'll be able to show an initial visual soon.
~ A small note regarding our release of Miss Hokusai in March. The correct release date for this 28th March. It had previously been noted as 31st March, that is a Thursday, on retailer sites and by us as well admittedly. So we just want to correct that here and now.
Don't forget that Miss Hokusai is going to be part of the Japan Film Foundation UK Touring Programme with screenings across the UK. You can find their website HERE.
~ For those of you looking forward our upcoming release of Durarara!! x2 – The First Arc: Shou you'll be happy to hear that we're well into the QC process for our release. We can confirm that, as per our re-authored Season 1 release, available in the standard edition release on both Blu-ray and DVD, it will include the original Japanese language audio and the English language dub. Subtitle options will be a full subtitle+song/sign track and a sign/song only track. Be on the lookout for more updates on this soon. You can get it in early with pre-ordering your copy from the likes of Amazon, Zavvi and Base today.
~ Slightly off topic, but relevant as we simulcast The Heroic Legend of Arslan to the UK & Ireland with our friends at Viewster, we want to give a shout out to our friends at Koei Tecmo who today have a released a playable demo of their Arslan: The Warriors of Legend for Playstation 4. For more details on this visit the Playstation store HERE.
~ Speaking of Viewster they are simulcasting season 2 of Snow White with the Red Hair to the UK & Ireland this winter season. The first episode is available to watch HERE. And don't forget you can catchup on all of season 1 for free there too.
~ Looking ahead to events, yes it's already time to talk about events and conventions we'll be attending, we want to confirm that Anime Limited will have a presence at Kitacon in April. There will be an official Anime Limited panel and we'll have a stall in the dealers hall through the weekend too. For more details on this event see their official website HERE.
We can also confirm we'll be at various MCM Comic Con events throughout the UK during 2016 starting with Birmingham in March. Expect more details on events we'll part of soon.
~ Oh, and for those of you asking about Escaflowne we haven't got an update to give you yet but rest assured we are working on it and we hope to have some more details soon.
~ Speaking of more details be on the lookout for some announcements over the coming weeks too.

Historic Santa Ana Office Building to Be Converted to Apartments
By Jack Bradley
A historic 1960s office building in downtown Santa Ana, California, will be transformed into a 148-unit housing development after its recent sale for $54 million to a real estate investment firm.
The 10-story 888 Tower, located on Main Street in the city's central business district, will be the first office building converted into multi-family housing units in Orange County after its purchase by Alliant Strategic.
"This is an extremely exciting project for us. An opportunity like this, to turn a historic building … into housing for the local workforce, is special for everyone involved. We're thankful to all of our partners to be able to bring this to fruition," Eddie Lorin, the CEO of Alliant Strategic, said in a Nov. 10 statement.
The repurposed residential complex will offer studios as well as one- and two-bedroom apartments. Amenities will include a fitness center, a yoga studio, an internet cafe, and two levels of subterranean parking.
In order to qualify for a unit in the building, future residents will need to earn a minimum yearly income of at least the median income of Santa Ana, which was approximately $61,774 in 2018, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
The building is located less than a mile north of the city center and the historic district, adjacent to the University of California–Irvine Health Family Health Center. It was built by architect Wilton Beckett, who also designed the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and the Capitol Records Tower in Hollywood.

Alliant Strategic purchased the building from Caribou Industries, according to public records. The project was brokered by Lineage Asset Management and Brookwood Group.
Jeffery Gould of Lineage Asset Management called the building "a generational asset and a rare adaptive reuse investment opportunity in Orange County."
"This project is a leading indicator of how older, vacant buildings are being converted into modern and productive buildings for the benefit of the community at large," Gould said in the release.
The tower is located in an official Opportunity Zone, which means it may be eligible for a capital gains tax incentive created to encourage development in low-income areas. Alliant Strategic purchased the building through its $125 million investment fund meant specifically for Opportunity Zone acquisitions.

The subject of this sketch was the youngest child of Thomas and Zelicha Yancey and was born in New Liberty, Owen Co., Kentucky 3 March 1847.
His father was a Virginian, being a cousin of Wm. L. Yancey of Confederate fame. His mother was first cousin of the Morton brothers who were pioneer preachers of the Restoration. From both father and mother he inherited a fine physique and a strong mind.
When two years of age his father died, leaving the mother and five children. She journeyed to Missouri and here on the prairies of this new country Worth Yancey spent his boyhood days. He left his home at the early age of thirteen to make his own way. At sixteen he entered the office of the Palmyra Spectator and learned the art of printing.
About this time he united with the church [Church of Christ] and soon afterwards decided to become a preacher of the Gospel. To this end he spent every energy, reading and studying every spare moment. He became a proficient typesetter, earning good wages which he laid by for his college course. At the age of 19 he entered Kentucky University. He graduated from both the college of the Bible and the University with honors - beloved by faculty and student body.
During nearly all of his college course he preached regularly every Sunday. His vacations were spent in protracted meetings in Kentucky and Missouri. After graduating he was called to Carlisle, then to Floyd and Chestnut Street Church Louisville, (now Brodway), laboring with this church for six years, then the Campbell church four years, Cynthian church five years, where his health failed.
His last sermon was preached 30 Sep 1894. On 7 Sept 1896 at Williamstown, Ky his bouyant spirit with "glimpse of the farther shore" was released from its tenant of clay. On 9 June 1871 he was united in marriage to Sarah Kendall Hogan of Williamstown, Ky, who with two sons, of Worth and Hogan, and a little daughter Lela survive him. Graham the eldest son preceded his father to the homeland.
The Yancey brothers were all-around athletes. Their late father, George Worth Yancey had graduated from Kentucky University and become a minister. Worth was two years older than Hogan and while originally from Kentucky, they grew up in the Leesburg Va. area. Hogan had attended South Carolina in Columbia for one year before transferring to K.U. to finish his studies. In addition to starting, he served as manager of the team.
Another development for Transylvania occurred during this time when one of their alumni, Hogan Yancey, agreed to return to the school as coach and athletic director. Yancey had been playing professional baseball and making a name for himself in coaching at such places as Jacksonville Florida and Rochester New York. He began to coach football and baseball at the school, taking time off in the summer to continue to play professional baseball.
Yancey was a man about town. In addition to his duties with the sports teams, he also managed to get his law degree from Transylvania. At one point he even found time to pose for the Confederate General John Hunt Morgan monument which sits in downtown Lexington.
Unfortunately for local fans, the ill feelings lingered through the years. More times than not, games were not played between the two schools. Part of this might be attributed to disagreement over the eligibility of players, given that standards were different between the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association (S.I.A.A., which State was a member of and Transylvania would join in 1914) and the K.I.A.A. (which both were members of, except for the times they weren't, such as when Transylvania abolished sports in the Spring of 1906 and later withdrew from the association that summer).
To add fuel to the fire, an iron arch with the words "Kentucky University" which hung over an entrance-way from Broadway to the Transylvania campus was sawed off and stolen one night in 1909. The theft, done presumably by State students opposed to their sister school's use of the out-of-date name, upset Transylvania students and alumni and did nothing to improve relations between the two student bodies.
Since their last meeting in 1908, much had changed. Hogan Yancey had moved on to take part-ownership in a local Lexington professional baseball team. (Yancey also dabbled in local professional basketball with a team called the Kentucky "All-Stars") At the same time he began practicing law and flirted with politics; eventually in the 1920's he would be elected Democratic mayor of Lexington. His older brother Worth also played professional baseball and became an attorney, but died young in 1913.


With the launch of the new Passport Parking system, commuters parking at either of the Villa Park METRA Parking lots are now able to conduct their parking transactions by mobile phone, a new service that will allow commuters an opportunity to save time by using their mobile phone to pay for parking. Commuters may initiate parking sessions from the comfort of their vehicle, or while walking to the train – avoiding lines at the payment machine and Police Department!
Once registered, motorists can use a mobile app, the internet or a mobile phone call to (630) 581-2445, to pay for parking. The phone number is displayed on signage throughout the facility, and on the parking pay stations.
After setting up the account, customers can immediately start using the system with their registered mobile phone. Motorists can also select the option to alerts and reminders fifteen minutes before their time expires. Motorists can track parking expenses, and print reports through Passport Parking's secure website.
Avoid waiting in line to pay at the parking machine and Police Department.
The fee for using the electronic system is $2.00.
