Steve Hedberg stevehedberg — this is the story of Atlas Powder in Senter, Michigan. from the inside: "The heretofore untold story of this plant and its people is an unknown hidden treasure in the mining era history of Michigan's copper country. This complex sprawled over 1815 acres of wooded glen with almost two-hundred special purpose structures and eleven miles of internal narrow gauge tramway. In its fifty year history over three hundred people were employed in this seldom discussed, little known complex. The manufacturing complex was self-contained with several distinctly specialized manufacturing operations, and for safety reasons many were separated by distances of several hundred feet and earthen bermed to a height of almost two stories. Closed now for almost fifty years, Father Time is obscuring the structures and the remaining workers from view, which is the reason for this record." this is a fascinating read about a dynamite plant, how it came to be, how the manufacturing process worked. interesting is the secrecy of the plant--this place according to old purchasing records--produced 100,000 pounds of dynamite every month in 1900 to the Quincy and Calumet & Hecla mining companies. a part of the Copper Country, an area that is now one of the newest national parks---the keweenaw national historical park--though i don't believe this particular area of the county (houghton) is included within the boundaries of the park. contrary to the ever-popular bashing of american business, that oh-so-delightful trend, this brief history tells of another way of business that is probably much more common than the myth american-haters are propounding today. the safety record the plant speaks to that matter. what would happen today? we've come so far, can i hear a hallelujah?

Andrea Castillo anncastel — Several professors at Grinnell College (IA) and Union Theological Seminary (NYC) assigned books by Mircea Eliade, the historian and anthropologist of religion, for their classes. Except for his book about time, Cosmos and History, I found them so redundant that I got the impression that he wrote the same book again and again. The problem may have been that the instructors were all assigning introductory level texts. Perhaps there are other, more advanced texts which would have impressed me more. I have not read, for instance, his dissertation on yoga.
