JUUL Class Action Lawsuit Claims E-Cigarette Manufacturer Intentionally Targeted Teens
Published on April 16, 2019 by Laurie Villanueva
A new e-cigarette lawsuit claims JUUL Labs intentionally downplayed the serious health risks associated with its popular vaping products in an effort to attract teens and other under-age users.
The complaint was apparently filed on Monday in the U.S. District Court, Middle District of Florida, by the parents of a teenage girl who purportedly developed a nicotine addiction due to her vaping habit. Their JUUL class action lawsuit seeks putative damages on behalf of other children and parents facing similar circumstances. (Case 8:19-cv-00884)
JUUL Class Action Lawsuit Allegations
JUUL Labs' vaporizers resemble a common USB drive, making them easy to conceal from parents and teachers. The corresponding nicotine pods come in a variety of candy and dessert flavors. JUUL controls about 75% of the e-cigarette market and is the most popular vaping brand among teens. However, a survey of young users recently published by Truth Initiative found that 63% did not know that JUUL liquids contained nicotine
According to the JUUL class action lawsuit, the plaintiffs believed their daughter's vaporizer was a USB drive. Among other things, they allege JUUL Labs intentionally designed the devices to deliver a higher dose of nicotine in order to create and sustain addictions among users. At the same time, marketing materials falsely stated that the vaporizers delivered a nicotine dose equal to that of a traditional cigarette.
The e-cigarette lawsuit further contends that JUUL Labs markets its vaping products on Instagram, Twitter, and other social media platforms in an intentional effort to attract underage users. Those campaigns also rely on the same themes successfully employed by Big Tobacco in the past to glamorize smoking and downplay nicotine's negative health impacts.
The plaintiffs' daughter was unaware JUUL pods contained nicotine when she began vaping, nor did she realize that vaping would create and sustain a addiction. Occasionally, she would unintentionally swallow the flavored e-liquid. In addition to her alleged addiction, she also suffers from seizures, a known consequence of nicotine ingestion.
Is JUUL Labs Honoring Youth Vaping Commitments?
The JUUL class action lawsuit was filed one week after Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., announced an investigation of JUUL Lab's marketing tactics. The Senators also want to know if the company has honored commitments made to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) to prevent youth vaping and are seeking information investigating Altria's recent agreement to purchase a 35% stake in JUUL Labs.
"While JUUL has promised to address youth vaping through its modest voluntary efforts, by accepting $12.8 billion from Altria—a tobacco giant with such a disturbing record of deceptive marketing to hook children onto cigarettes—JUUL has lost what little remaining credibility the company had when it claimed to care about the public health.," the Senators wrote. "While you and your investors may be perfectly content with hooking an entire new generation of children on your tobacco products in order to increase your profit margins, we will not rest until your dangerous products are out of the hands of our nation's children."
Former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb accused JUUL Labs of reneging on its commitments in February. That same month, a coalition of 16 conservative and anti-regulatory groups wrote President Trump asking that he "pump the brakes" on the FDA's efforts to e-cigarettes and other tobacco products. According to The New York Times, JUUL Labs made financial contributions to several of the organizations behind the letter, including Americans for Tax Reform, the R. Street Institute, and the American Legislative Exchange Council Action.

22. History, in fact, tells us that in the course of ages these festivals have been instituted one after another according as the needs or the advantage of the people of Christ seemed to demand: as when they needed strength to face a common danger, when they were attacked by insidious heresies, when they needed to be urged to the pious consideration of some mystery of faith or of some divine blessing. Thus in the earliest days of the Christian era, when the people of Christ were suffering cruel persecution, the cult of the martyrs was begun in order, says St. Augustine, "that the feasts of the martyrs might incite men to martyrdom."[34] The liturgical honors paid to confessors, virgins and widows produced wonderful results in an increased zest for virtue, necessary even in times of peace. But more fruitful still were the feasts instituted in honor of the Blessed Virgin. As a result of these men grew not only in their devotion to the Mother of God as an ever-present advocate, but also in their love of her as a mother bequeathed to them by their Redeemer. Not least among the blessings which have resulted from the public and legitimate honor paid to the Blessed Virgin and the saints is the perfect and perpetual immunity of the Church from error and heresy. We may well admire in this the admirable wisdom of the Providence of God, who, ever bringing good out of evil, has from time to time suffered the faith and piety of men to grow weak, and allowed Catholic truth to be attacked by false doctrines, but always with the result that truth has afterwards shone out with greater splendor, and that men's faith, aroused from its lethargy, has shown itself more vigorous than before.
23. The festivals that have been introduced into the liturgy in more recent years have had a similar origin, and have been attended with similar results. When reverence and devotion to the Blessed Sacrament had grown cold, the feast of Corpus Christi was instituted, so that by means of solemn processions and prayer of eight days' duration, men might be brought once more to render public homage to Christ. So, too, the feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus was instituted at a time when men were oppressed by the sad and gloomy severity of Jansenism, which had made their hearts grow cold, and shut them out from the love of God and the hope of salvation.
24. If We ordain that the whole Catholic world shall revere Christ as King, We shall minister to the need of the present day, and at the same time provide an excellent remedy for the plague which now infects society. We refer to the plague of anti-clericalism, its errors and impious activities. This evil spirit, as you are well aware, Venerable Brethren, has not come into being in one day; it has long lurked beneath the surface. The empire of Christ over all nations was rejected. The right which the Church has from Christ himself, to teach mankind, to make laws, to govern peoples in all that pertains to their eternal salvation, that right was denied. Then gradually the religion of Christ came to be likened to false religions and to be placed ignominiously on the same level with them. It was then put under the power of the state and tolerated more or less at the whim of princes and rulers. Some men went even further, and wished to set up in the place of God's religion a natural religion consisting in some instinctive affection of the heart. There were even some nations who thought they could dispense with God, and that their religion should consist in impiety and the neglect of God. The rebellion of individuals and states against the authority of Christ has produced deplorable consequences. We lamented these in the Encyclical Ubi arcano; we lament them today: the seeds of discord sown far and wide; those bitter enmities and rivalries between nations, which still hinder so much the cause of peace; that insatiable greed which is so often hidden under a pretense of public spirit and patriotism, and gives rise to so many private quarrels; a blind and immoderate selfishness, making men seek nothing but their own comfort and advantage, and measure everything by these; no peace in the home, because men have forgotten or neglect their duty; the unity and stability of the family undermined; society in a word, shaken to its foundations and on the way to ruin. We firmly hope, however, that the feast of the Kingship of Christ, which in future will be yearly observed, may hasten the return of society to our loving Savior. It would be the duty of Catholics to do all they can to bring about this happy result. Many of these, however, have neither the station in society nor the authority which should belong to those who bear the torch of truth. This state of things may perhaps be attributed to a certain slowness and timidity in good people, who are reluctant to engage in conflict or oppose but a weak resistance; thus the enemies of the Church become bolder in their attacks. But if the faithful were generally to understand that it behooves them ever to fight courageously under the banner of Christ their King, then, fired with apostolic zeal, they would strive to win over to their Lord those hearts that are bitter and estranged from him, and would valiantly defend his rights.

- query = "select distinct architecture from packages"
+ query = "select distinct architecture from packages where architecture != 'all'"
I think I got the reason of the change, I will try to use proper wording: generating a control file for 'all' architecture(as I was doing previously) it will contain only the architecture independent packages which anyway we already include them in our query: blends-gsoc/sql/blendsd. And also in our case we want to create architecture dependent metapackages and independent. right?

For years, Sears has been a troubled company. Despite high awareness for its brand name due to its longevity, Sears and its sibling, Kmart, have been battered by Walmart, Target, and a host of other fierce competitors. Last year, Sears had a loss that exceeded $3 billion.
Now Sears is digging in and making what may be a last-ditch effort to save itself—and a major part of the hoped-for turnaround depends on the power of the Internet and, more specifically, social media. Ironically, Sears owns Lands' End, long regarded as an ecommerce leader, but that online marketing expertise has not carried over to the retailer.
Like other retailers, Sears implemented a customer loyalty program to encourage repeat purchases. Called "Shop Your Way Rewards," the program offers points for purchases, special offers to shoppers who use "eReceipts" instead of paper, and contests just for members. Beyond that, Sears has overlaid onto the program a heavy dose of social media. Members can earn badges by writing reviews and recommending products, create wishlists and share them, and meet fellow shoppers with similar tastes and interests.
But the latest twist to the Shop Your Way Rewards program is thought to be a novel if not unique idea in online marketing. In a variation of the friend-get-a-friend concept, Sears is recruiting customers to make recommendations to family, friends, and acquaintances to shop at Sears stores or online and offering to pay the shoppers one to two percent of the sale. In other words, current customers become "agents" and get a piece of the action when people they've referred buy a product from Sears. It's all tracked through membership in the loyalty program.
Abraham Seidmann, a professor at Rochester University's Simon Graduate School of Business, told The Wall Street Journal it's the first time he has heard of a retailer taking this approach. "It's very creative and my thought is if it gets off the ground, others will follow," said Siedmann. With customers spending less time in stores and more time shopping only, "this plays right into the dynamic," added Siedmann.
Of course, this idea should come as no big surprise to online marketers. We're well acquainted with the paid online referrals; that is what affiliate marketing is all about. But the fact that a major traditional retailer has adopted such an approach is big news.
Already, employees at some Sears stores are using iPads and iPod Touches to access online reviews and instantly check inventory for customers. According to the Journal, Sears is working on a way for employees to greet shoppers who use their smartphones to "check in." The employees would find the shoppers via GPS and be able to direct them to items in the store which match up with merchandise they might have looked at online.
In addition, the use of technology alone won't bring in new customers and increase sales for Sears. Other major retailers like Lowes have already widely employed iPhones to enhance in-store customer service, and mobile marketing has started to merge the retail and online worlds.
Sears is one more case study of a retailer with a long bricks-and-mortar legacy trying to figure out how to take full advantage of the consumer shift to a more mobile, always-on connected life. It may be too late for the Internet to save Sears, but every marketer could learn a thing or two from the retailer's desperate attempts to innovate.

Florida Gators vs. Oregon State Beavers, Pick, Prediction 12/17/22
December 7th, 2022 By: BTB
The NCAAF continues with Bowl games next weekend, and we have a Las Vegas Bowl tilt on Saturday, December 17, so feel free to check out the best Gators vs. Beavers betting pick and odds.
Florida and Oregon State will battle for the $2,900,000 prize when they meet at Allegiant Stadium. The Beavers are firm -10.5 point favorites on BetDSI Sportsbook, while the total is set at 52 points. These non-conference rivals will meet for the first time.
Gators dropped to .500 after another loss
The Florida Gators (6-6-0, 7-5-0 ATS) lost four of their previous six games, including the last two to Vanderbilt and Florida State to drop to a .500 record (3-5 in conference play). Florida allowed a season-high 45 points in a 45-38 loss to the Florida State Seminoles, in a pretty entertaining game. The teams combined for 957 yards and 48 first downs, so nearly 80,000 people in the stands enjoyed it.
Anthony Richardson completed nine of 27 passes for 198 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. Ricky Pearsall was impressive in his career night as he had 148 yards and a pair of receiving touchdowns on five catches. Jonathan Odom also found the end zone through the air, while the Gators were excellent on the ground. Trevor Etienne rushed for a career-high 129 yards and a TD on 17 carries, while Montrell Johnson Jr. also had 17 rushing attempts for 85 yards and a touchdown. On defense, Trey Dean III and Kamari Wilson combined for 17 tackles.
WR Justin Shorter (undisclosed), WR Xzavier Henderson (lower body), and WR Ricky Pearsall (lower body) are questionable to face the Beavers on Saturday.
Beavers finished in the top half of the Pac-12
The Oregon State Beavers (9-3-0, 10-2-0 ATS) finished the regular season with six wins in seven games to end in the top half of the Pac-12 conference. They are on a three-game winning streak; the Beavers concluded the regular campaign with a 38-34 home victory over in-state rivals Oregon Ducks. Oregon, who missed out on the opportunity to fight for the conference title after this defeat, had a massive 31-10 lead late in the third quarter, but the Beavers scored three touchdowns in the space of five minutes in the fourth to secure a comeback W.
Ben Gulbranson completed six of 13 passes for 60 yards and two interceptions. He did make amends on the ground with a pair of rushing touchdowns. Isaiah Newell also scored two rushing TDs, Deshaun Fenwick added one, and Damien Martinez recorded 103 yards on 15 carries. Defensively, Kitan Oladapo was a monster with a career-high 17 tackles, while Omar Speights and Kyrei Fisher-Morris combined for 24.
TE Luke Musgrave (undisclosed) and WR Anthony Gould (undisclosed) are questionable to feature on Saturday against the Gators.
Florida:
3-8 ATS in the last 11 non-conference games
4-9 ATS in the last 13 neutral site games
Oregon State:
6-0 ATS in the last six games overall
4-0 ATS in the last four games after accumulating more than 200 yards rushing in their previous game
5-1 ATS in the last six non-conference games
Florida Gators vs. Oregon State Beavers Pick
Florida is not playing well recently and will probably be without several key offensive players, so I am going with Oregon State in this one. The Gators have a poor defense this year that is allowing 28.8 points per game opposite the Beavers' solid D that is allowing 21.4 ppg. Both teams are excellent on offense; the Beavers are a bit more successful in that regard, but their better defense is the biggest reason I am backing Oregon State. Also, the Beavers have been in a way better form in the last few weeks.
Pick: Take the Beavers at -8.5 (-133)
I am going with a high-scoring affair mainly because of Florida's lenient defense. The Gators allowed 31+ points in four of their last six games, and I am sure Oregon State can score 30+ here. The Beavers managed to do so in each of their previous three games. Over is 7-0 in the Gators' last seven games after accumulating more than 450 total yards in their previous game; Over is 5-2 in Florida's previous seven neutral site games, while Over is 5-2 in the Beavers' last seven neutral site games.Pick: Go Over 51.5 points (-120)
UTSA Roadrunners vs. Troy Trojans, Pick, Prediction 12/16/22
New Jersey Devils vs. New York Rangers Odds, Pick, Prediction 12/12/22
TCU Horned Frogs vs. Georgia Bulldogs Odds, Pick, Prediction 1/9/23
Ohio State Buckeyes vs. Georgia Bulldogs Odds, Pick, Prediction 12/31/22
TCU Horned Frogs vs. Michigan Wolverines Odds, Pick, Prediction 12/31/22
Alabama Crimson Tide vs. Kansas State Wildcats Odds, Pick, Prediction 12/31/22

UK premier to signal EU clean, 'partial membership' break
May to promise ``a new and equal partnership'' with the EU.
January 17, 2017 by ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — Prime Minister Theresa May is preparing to make a speech that will signal that Britain will make a clean break from the European Union and not seek to remain "half-in, half-out."
In her most detailed remarks on the UK's exit strategy, May will promise to forge "a new and equal partnership" with the EU.
"Not partial membership of the European Union, associate membership of the European Union, or anything that leaves us half-in, half-out," she plans to say, according to excerpts released by her office.
"We do not seek to adopt a model already enjoyed by other countries. We do not seek to hold on to bits of membership as we leave."
May's speech appears to rule out the sort of close ties adopted by non-EU members Switzerland or Norway.
Neil Wilson, senior market analyst at ETX Capital, said he was "expecting a wild ride," for the pound amid hints that May would signal an economy-roiling "hard Brexit."
Sterling has lost about a fifth of its value since Britain voted in June to leave the EU.
The plunge in the pound has started to hit the consumer. Inflation has soared to its highest level in 2 1/2 years hitting 1.6% in December, from 1.2% in November.
May has said she rejects both the "hard Brexit" label and its opposite, a compromise "soft Brexit" – but wants a new relationship in the interests of both Britain and the EU.
"We want to buy your goods, sell you ours, trade with you as freely as possible, and work with one another to make sure we are all safer, more secure and more prosperous through continued friendship," she'll say.
In a bid to alleviate fears that Brexit will mean a more insular Britain, May will say she wants the country to be "stronger, fairer, more united and more outward-looking than ever before."
In an attempt to symbolize the UK's outward-facing aspirations, May will deliver her speech to an audience of British civil servants and international diplomats at London's Lancaster House, a Georgian mansion that has hosted international summits over the decades.
May's speech signals that Britain will quit the EU's single market in goods and services in order to gain control over immigration – a key issue for many voters who backed Brexit. EU leaders say Britain can't stay in the single market without allowing free movement of people from the bloc.
The prospect of losing single-market access alarms many in Britain's huge financial services sector, which relies on an ability to do business seamlessly across the 28-nation bloc.
It also worries the many foreign firms that use London not only as a financial hub but as an entry point into the EU.
May said that she would invoke Article 50 of the EU's key treat by March 31, to formally begin a two-year process of negotiating Britain's departure.
But she has until now refused to reveal details about the government's goals or negotiating strategy, arguing that to do so would weaken Britain's hand.
Some details have now begun to emerge.
British Treasury chief Philip Hammond fueled speculation that Britain will play hardball in Brexit negotiations, telling the German newspaper Welt am Sonntag that the UK hoped to retain single-market access but would be willing to "change our economic model to regain competitiveness" if that was cut off.
Opposition Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn accused Hammond of threatening a "trade war with Europe" and seeking to turn Britain into a tax haven.
May spokeswoman Helen Bower said the prime minister and Hammond both want Britain "to remain in the mainstream of a recognizable European-style taxation system."
"But if we are forced to do something different because we can't get the right deal, then we stand ready to do so," she said.
May will also use her speech to appeal for reconciliation between the 48% of British voters who wanted to stay in the EU and the pro-Brexit 52%. But the gap between "remainers" and "leavers" appears as wide as ever.

When you think of bean bags, does it make you think of your childhood? Wouldn't it be fun if you could pay homage to your childhood bean bag with a more modern piece of occasional furniture? Gaming cushions are a hot trend right now. Our version is a big square shape, handmade with excellent craftsmanship, durable, easy care, and flexible. We have had so much fun playing with new fabrics from Kirkby's whimsical line of cotton prints designed by Jon Burgerman. The gaming cushions have a separate lining filled with polystyrene beads, which makes them lightweight, squishy, and versatile. Use them for gaming cushions, footstools, extra seating, side tables, ottomans, or pet perches. Can you see yourself adding one of these gaming cushions to your home?
If you can dream it, we can seam it!


Car dealerships fix cars, so why don't gun dealers fix guns? All that changes at LEGACY FIREARMS in Doniphan, Missouri. They sell all brands of New and Used Guns, and also some Custom Guns such as their MOSIN NAGANT. Gunsmiths are always on site at Legacy Firearms to handle any Custom Work, Technical Issues or Problems, or to just answer any questions you may have about your firearm, and they even give a 1 year warranty on all used guns. At LEGACY FIREARMS they don't make promises, they deliver satisfaction. If they can't fix it—-they DON'T CHARGE.
Legacy Firearms is a full service shop from start to finish. They stock a full line of Guns, Ammo, and Accessories as well as offering Cleaning, Repairs, Restorations, Scope Mounting, Sight-In, Cerakoting, Stock Repair, Stock Refinishing, Re-Bluing, Tactical Upgrades, Custom Work and much, much more. Ripley County, Clay County & several other police agencies trust LEGACY FIREARMS with their firearm needs, so, you know you can trust them with yours.

If you are new to firearms, LEGACY FIREARMS can put you at ease with outstanding customer service and training for all ages. Women aren't ignored at LEGACY FIREARMS. They pride themselves on being the most lady friendly gun shop ever. With the growing need for Conceal & Carry, Self Defense Training, and the growing number of women who just like to shoot, women make up a large portion of their customer base.
A training facility is available at Gatewood, Missouri complete with Classroom, Range, and Modern Restrooms. Advanced Handgun Training, Self Defense Training and Conceal & Carry Classes will all be held there.
As you can see, Legacy Firearms in Doniphan, MO has covered all the bases to give you a very unique and enjoyable experience when you visit.
I like that this gun dealer also fixes guns for their customers. The only thing more dangerous than a gun is a gun that isn't working. Having a broken gun in your house is not a good idea because of the danger that it can cause to the person that uses it. However, once the gun is fixed it will not be dangerous to use at all.

Responses of Peanut Genotypes to Fungicidal Control of Early Leaf Spot in Malawi¹
Authors: P. Subrahmanyam , G. L. Hildebrand
Early leaf spot (Cercospora arachidicola Hori.) is the most destructive disease of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) in Malawi. Fifteen peanut genotypes were examined for their response to fungicidal control of early leaf spot during the 1990-91 (year 1), 1991-92 (year 2), and 1992-93 (year 3) growing seasons at Chitedze, Malawi. Total rainfall and its distribution in these years were variable, with the most favorable pattern in year 3. Early leaf spot was most severe in year 2, although there was a severe midseason drought during this year. Fungicide application gave excellent control of the disease in all growing seasons. The cultivar Malimba had the most damage and the breeding line ICGV-SM 85053 had the least damage from early leaf spot. Pod yields were higher in year 3 than in the other two growing seasons. Pod yields were significantly higher in fungicide-sprayed (treated) plots than in water-sprayed (control) plots in years 1 and 3. Most peanut genotypes had positive yield responses to disease control in years 1 and 3. However, there were no significant differences in pod yields between treated and control plots of most genotypes in year 2. Although the pod yields were lower in year 2 than in year 1, total biomass production was higher in year 2. It was apparent that biomass partitioning was severely affected in year 2 due to the midseason drought stress that reduced pod yields and vitiated the beneficial effects of fungicidal application. Investment in fungicidal control of early leaf spot on genotypes with low yield potential may not be economical under less than optimal rainfall conditions.

Minnesota Open Thread Sponsored By Carl Spackler
By Jason Priestas on September 27, 2008 at 9:02 am @priestas
Should be a fun Saturday and a good test for the Buckeyes. The Gophers (and their fans) are riding high and are a step up from the Penguins, Bobcats and Trojans (lesser type). The defense, in particular, has a good chance to answer some critics today. I'm excited to see what Gibson can do getting a majority of the snaps at one of the end spots and it's also nice to watch the continued evolution of Hines -- the next great Buckeye safety (though judging from last week, Coleman has taken notice and would like to join him).
The first time you see Beanie and Pryor line up in the same backfield, you're excused for crapping yourself in excitement because you won't be alone. We know Posey, Thomas and Washington will get more snaps and all it would take right now would be one big game out of one of those burners to put possibly thrust them into a starting role. The message from the Boeckman situation is that no job is safe, regardless of how long you've been in the program and that's a refreshing change to see.
Say what you will about Tressel being stubborn and conservative, but he's making the changes the fans are demanding. Some, like the Pryor switch, were inevitable. But I like how he's tinkered with the offensive and defensive lines as well as at receiver. I have a feeling that this team is getting ready to go off.
Later in the day, there are some interesting matchups as conference play begins:
#10 Wisconsin @ Michigan, 3:30 - ABC
The big story heading into this one is that the Badgers have a really, really good shot to get their first win in Ann Arbor in 14 years. I think they'll get it done, but I have this creeping suspicion that Rodriguez will get one upset this year -- and the sooner the better. If he's upset-less by the time 11/22 rolls around, I'll be slightly more worried than I probably should be.
#8 Alabama @ #4 Georgia, 7:45 - ESPN
Georgia is busting out the black as they welcome Bear Saban and the Crimson Tide to Athens. The Dawgs are stacked and have played well this year, despite losing a little bit of ground in the rankings. Alabama has looked like an elite team and say what you will about Saban -- the guy can coach the college game. If nothing else, tune in for the Southern honies dotting the stands.
#24 Illinois @ #9 Penn State, 8:00 - ABC
On Thursday afternoon, Penn State looked like a great team. They had dominated everyone they played and put up mad points in the process. Then late Thursday night, Pacific time, they began to look even better, considering the pasting they administered to Oregon State way back in week two. If they do to Illinois what they've done to every other team they've played this season, they'll jump into the top five and deserve to be there.

Sheila Hicks discusses the innovative work of the Chilean architectural collective Ciudad Abierta.
With the great and the good of the São Paulo art world buzzing about the 30th São Paulo Bienal, we got the insider lowdown from three Bienal artists – Shelia Hicks, Eduardo Berliner and Sofia Borges – on whose work most impressed them at this year's Bienal.
Here, the textile artist Sheila Hicks talks to us about the work of the groundbreaking Chilean architectural collective, Ciudad Abierta.
'Without a doubt the discovery, or rediscovery, for me at the Bienal was the presentation by Ciudad Abierta. It encompassed and epitomised the range of emotions and intelligence promised by the curator's title, "The Imminence of Poetics", and the statement of purpose of the exhibition as a whole. It was just beautiful, from beginning to end.
'They made a series of about 20 structures from this white material that was lit from behind – structures on what I'd call a kind of pliable plane, elasticised, to simulate earth shapes. Since it was fabric, they were able to push and pull that textile, pliable plane into the most beautiful forms that became architecture. I watched as they constructed their stand and organised their space with grace and brilliance, telling the story of nearly 50 years of shared poetic enactments on two continents.
'Before the Bienal, the curators visited them in Valparaiso. They were amazed, because when they invited them to show them what they did, the 19 students who had signed up created their installation right there on the floor.
'They arrived with their soldering tools, their saws and so on, and created the whole thing. They made the sub-structure and the super-structure, which is elasticised fabric. You look at it and think, this is a whole new world. 'Where they live in Valparaiso, on the coast, the terrain is very uneven, so building involves finding forms that suit that kind of terrain. I saw something like that in São Paulo too – I went to Lina Bo Bardi's Casa de Vidro, which is built on stilts.
'But these people, instead of using stilts, carve into the terrain and come back out of it to create the most beautiful and unique kinds of forms. They marry the earth with the sky, lifting us to a kind of wonderful celestial space on Earth. It's very, very poetic.
'Which is something that seems to be making people quite nervous about this Bienal: they're saying, "Why are we talking about poetry?" I think people seem little flat-footed, a little nerved out by the curator's idea of poetics.

A developer can create a Static Page in a Squarespace site as a way to build a page that requires features that may not be available in the CMS or rely on an external service not already integrated into Squarespace.
Note: .page files are a special type of collection that do not have data of their own and cannot be modified within the Squarespace CMS by an end user.
A /pages directory in template files is able to store static HTML pages. In Squarespace, these are a special type of collection that do not have CMS data of their own and for this reason, cannot be modified within the Squarespace interface by the end user. Not all Squarespace templates feature a /pages directory by default, but it will be automatically recognized by our system when added.
A .page is formatted as static HTML. The markup defined in your .page will render within the main content area of your site. Therefore, global structure tags (like head and body) do not need to be defined here. Though Pages are not editable in the CMS, they will appear in your site's Pages panel and can be added dragged into your Site Navigation.
To create a .page , a corresponding .page.conf must also be created. The .page.conf defines the title and description — most helpful for describing page contents to the end user in the content editing interface.
"description" : "Brief description of the static page, helps to explain the page contents since it cannot be viewed or edited within the CMS"
