03/12/2017  - NYPD P.O. Michael Hance died from 9/11 related cancer.  

Officer Hance was a 9-11 first responder and worked the long, grueling and acrid-smoke filled hours down at the WTC after the terrorist attack.

Wherever he went, Michael Hance had a knack for making friends.

That’s why it was no surprise when a video surfaced of the NYPD officer and Bethpage resident dancing in uniform at the New York City Pride Parade in 2015, his family said.
“He was the life of the party,” said his brother Peter Hance, 45, of Bethpage.

Hance, a 17-year veteran of the NYPD and 9/11 first responder, died Sunday in Plainview after being hospitalized with brain cancer, his brother said. He was 44. 

Officer Michael Hance leaves behind two daughters...

Truth Coming out of The Well 🇫🇷 😔 🇺🇸 La Vérité

La Vérité Sortant du Puits

Truth Coming Out of The Well

Jean-Léon Gérome, 1896

La Vérité sortant du puits est un tableau de Jean-Léon Gérôme 

🇺🇸 Truth coming from the well armed with her whip to chastise humanity is an 1896 painting by the French artist Jean-Léon Gérôme.

🇫🇷 Le titre complet de ce tableau est Vérité sortant du puits armée de son martinet pour châtier l'humanité   et provient de la phrase de Démocrite : « En réalité nous ne savons rien, car la vérité est au fond du puits. » Pour le peintre, c'est une représentation de la Vérité en peinture.

The Truth Coming Out Of Her Well
Jean Leon Gerome

   Truth, First Principles, Morals, Right and Wrong.

🇫🇷     🇺🇸     🇬🇧

La Vérité, fille de Saturne ou du Temps, est mère de la Justice et de la Vertu ; la Vérité est donc une divinité allégorique.

🎨

Composition
Le puits est celui du musée de Cluny à Paris dont le peintre modifie la hauteur de la margelle par la suppression de la gargouille pour permettre au modèle de prendre appui ; la reproduction du puits est fidèle par ailleurs4, à un détail près : « Il a ajouté à la vigne vierge qui tapisse encore le mur, la végétation luxuriante des arums que l'on voyait déjà derrière la fontaine de Daphnis et Chloé et près du Circassien à l'abreuvoir. » 

🇺🇸     🇬🇧

According to a 19th century legend, the Truth and the Lie meet one day. 

The Lie says to the Truth: “It’s a marvellous day today”! The Truth looks up to the skies and sighs, for the day was really beautiful.
They spend a lot of time together, ultimately arriving beside a well. The Lie tells the Truth: “The water is very nice, let’s take a bath together!” The Truth, once again suspicious, tests the water and discovers that it indeed is very nice. They undress and start bathing. Suddenly, the Lie comes out of the water, puts on the clothes of the Truth and runs away. The furious Truth comes out of the well and runs everywhere to find the Lie and to get her clothes back. The World, seeing the Truth naked, turns its gaze away, with contempt and rage.
The poor Truth returns to the well and disappears forever, hiding therein, its shame. Since then, the Lie travels around the world, dressed as the Truth, satisfying the needs of society, because, the World, in any case, harbors no wish at all to meet the naked Truth.
The Lie said to the Truth, "Let's take a bath together, the well water is very nice. 
The Truth, still suspicious, tested the water and found out it really was nice. So they got naked and bathed.
But suddenly, the Lie leapt out of the water and fled, wearing the clothes of the Truth. 
The Truth, furious, climbed out of the well to get her clothes back.
But the World, upon seeing the naked Truth, looked away, with anger and contempt.
Poor Truth returned to the well and disappeared forever, hiding her shame. 
Since then, the Lie runs around the world, dressed as the Truth, and society is very happy-because the world has no desire to know the naked Truth.

Jean-Léon Gérome, 1896
Painting: Truth Coming out of The Well / La Vérité Sortant du Puits

This story beautifully illustrates the discomfort people often feel when confronted with the stark, unadorned truth. It’s a powerful reminder of how easily lies can masquerade as truth and how society sometimes prefers comforting illusions over difficult realities. It’s essential to remain vigilant and discerning, seeking the genuine truth even when it’s uncomfortable or inconvenient.

Réalisée dans une ruelle à Vesoul en juillet 2021

Si la vérité blesse, le mensonge tue.
Mieux vaut une vérité qui fait mal
qu’un mensonge qui fait du bien
La vérité n’est jamais aussi douloureuse
que la découverte d’un mensonge.
La vérité blesse une seule fois..
Le mensonge, à chaque fois que tu y penses.

Beginning in the mid-1890s, in the last decade of his life, Gérôme made at least four paintings personifying Truth as a nude woman, either thrown into, at the bottom of, or emerging from a well. The imagery arises from a translation of an aphorism of the philosopher Democritus, "Of truth we know nothing, for truth is in a well".(Greek ἐτεῇ δὲ οὐδὲν ἴδμεν: ἐν βυθῷ γὰρ ἡ ἀλήθεια, eteêi dè oudèn ídmen: en buthô gàr hē alḗtheia, [literally] "in reality we know nothing; for the truth is in an abyss".) The nudity of the model may arise from the expression la vérité nue, "the naked truth".

At the Champs Elysées Salon of 1895, Gérôme showed a painting entitled Mendacibus et histrionibus occisa in puteo jacet alma Veritas (English: The nurturer Truth lies in a well, having been killed by liars and actors), in which he depicted "naked Truth killed by Falsehood, her body flung into a well and the mirror after her, from which flashes of light are cast as it lightens the dark abyss". At the next Salon in 1896, Gérôme showed Truth Coming Out of Her Well.

It has been assumed that both paintings (like a similar, later work by Édouard Debat-Ponsan) were comments on the Dreyfus affair, but art historian Bernard Tillier argues that Gérôme's images of Truth and the well were part of his ongoing diatribe against Impressionism.

n a preface for Émile Bayard's Le Nu Esthétique published in 1902, Gérôme uses the metaphor of Truth and the well to characterize the profound and irreversible influence of photography:

La photographie est un art. La photographie force les artistes à se dépouiller de la vieille routine et à oublier les vieilles formules. Elle nous a ouvert les yeux et forcé à regarder ce qu'auparavant nous n'avions jamais vu, service considérable et inappréciable qu'elle a rendu à l'Art. C'est grâce à elle que la vérité est enfin sortie de son puits. Elle n'y rentrera plus.

Photography is an art. It forces artists to discard their old routine and forget their old formulas. It has opened our eyes and forced us to see that which previously we have not seen; a great and inexpressible service for Art. It is thanks to photography that Truth has finally come out of her well. She will never go back.

Gérôme kept at least one of the paintings. When he died in 1904, "the maid found him dead in the little room next to his atelier, slumped in front of a portrait of Rembrandt and at the foot of his own painting, Truth"—but the source for this anecdote, the biographer Charles Moreau-Vauthier, does not specify which painting of Truth.

Since 1978, Truth Coming Out of Her Well has been part of the permanent exhibition at the Musée Anne de Beaujeu in Moulins, France. In 2012, after the painting traveled to Los Angeles, Paris and Madrid, the museum featured the exhibition La vérité est au musée ("Truth is at the Museum"), which collected numerous drawings, sketches, and variants made by Gérôme, and by other artists, relating to the painting and its theme. The multiple interpretations of the painting's enigmatic meaning prompted one of the museum's curators to say, "C'est notre Joconde à nous." ("This is our Mona Lisa.")

Heat Domes 🔥The Science

The Science

Behind Heat Domes

Temperature records have been breaking all over, as our Earth registers some of the hottest periods ever measured. Correspondent David Pogue explains how a "heat dome" has been driving up temperatures, and how extreme heat is affecting residents of Phoenix, where there has been a rise in hospital admissions for heat stress.

Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns, mainly caused by human activities, especially the burning of fossil fuels.

Comments

Excellent work as always, David. I live in the northern Midwest where the temperature rarely goes above 100 F but we are seeing the impact of global warming in the form of stronger thunderstorms producing larger and more damaging hail.  Earlier this year we got hail the size of a quarter and now I need a new roof.  All the local car dealers are selling hail damaged cars at reduced prices.  Outside of extremely rare tornadoes, we always considered ourselves safe from most natural disasters.  Now we are seeing that nature can hit in a wide variety of ways.

What Is Climate Change?
Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. Such shifts can be natural, due to changes in the sun’s activity or large volcanic eruptions. But since the 1800s, human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas.
Burning fossil fuels generates greenhouse gas emissions that act like a blanket wrapped around the Earth, trapping the sun’s heat and raising temperatures.
The main greenhouse gases that are causing climate change include carbon dioxide and methane. These come from using gasoline for driving a car or coal for heating a building, for example. Clearing land and cutting down forests can also release carbon dioxide. Agriculture, oil and gas operations are major sources of methane emissions. Energy, industry, transport, buildings, agriculture and land use are among the main sectors causing greenhouse gases.

Transcript

Politicians may still debate it but it’s getting harder and harder to deny with temperatures climbing to new heights everywhere something's going on out there.
David Pogue takes us to Phoenix where the heat is on the last eight years have been the hottest years  ever measured on the planet July was the hottest  month ever recorded July 6 was the hottest day all over the planet the heat broke temperature records including in Siberia 103 degrees more than half  the U.S population was subject to heat warnings  in July here in Phoenix Arizona the heat has broken all kinds of records including the longest streak of consecutive days where the temperature hit 110 degrees or hotter really cooking today in Phoenix 118 degrees I think tomorrow will be even hotter and it's not just the hot air that's  dangerous it's the surfaces this steering  wheel 162.5 this sidewalk is 144 Fahrenheit  that's hot enough to burn your dog's Paws in 60 seconds and this playground slide for children 182.8 degrees people say oh you live in Phoenix  it's a dry heat and honestly 100 105 is not bad but I want to stress very strongly nobody is  acclimated to 115 118 degrees more Troublesome  is the fact that the low temperature Melissa Guardaro is an extreme heat researcher at Arizona State University have there been in Phoenix hospitals a rise in admissions  absolutely the most number of Hospital admissions  for heat stress that we've ever had what can you tell us about the ways your life changes during a  heat wave like this so you don't work out Outdoors  at 11 o'clock you go and you hike at five or six  o'clock in the morning I actually have mittens in  my car so that when the steering wheel gets really  hot I put my mittens on and that's how I drive you  know you're living in a hot place when you have  to keep oven mitts in your glove compartment yeah  compartment because [Laughter] so why has so  much of the country been scorching for so long  well allow me to introduce that  breakout weather term of 2023  the heat Dome it's an area of high pressure  way up high that traps the warm air like the lid on a pot it traps the heat it stops rain from  moving in to cool us off and it just sits there  unfortunately not every area under the heat  Dome suffers equally you want to know who  gets the worst of it cities are where heat  comes to stay and comes to live Becca Benner is a director of climate issues at the nonprofit nature  conservancy cities on average are several degrees  warmer than the surrounding areas and just because  of so much pavement it tends to absorb heat better  and reflect heat better they call it the urban  heat island effect too much pavement not enough  trees and Greenery to cool things off the heat  island effect is worse in the poorer areas of our  cities where there aren't many trees and even  the bus stops don't always offer shade Carlos  Galves lives in Phoenix without air conditioning  electricity or even running water the thermometer  on his wall registers 109.
Are you able to sleep  in this heat if I sleep for half an hour then I'll lie awake for an hour after that because it's just  so hot do you have some tricks to stay cool  in here I drink a lot of water and twice a day I pour a bucket of water on myself and I just try to rest in the evening in Phoenix you can get free transportation to the city's 90 cooling centers but ever since he collapsed from the Heat last month Galves is worried about leaving  his house I'm afraid I could faint again if I go out during the day so I wait till the sun is going down to go out to get ice or water  even for people who have air conditioning not everyone can afford to use it the average bill for AC in Phoenix is over $450 a month   we have a group of people who have to make very difficult choices do I pay for air conditioning or do I pay for my rent this kind of heat wave is  bringing up all the chinks in the infrastructure last month President Biden announced some small steps toward adapting to dangerous heat like expanding access to drinking water improving  weather forecasts and setting up a heat alert system we should be protecting workers from  hazardous conditions and we will but Guardaro maintains that there's much more to be done city planners should develop heat infrastructure like  cooling centers and strategic Greenery and the federal government should start taking heat as   seriously as it treats other climate disasters FEMA has never declared extreme heat as a disaster  so flooding and hurricane all those things  can be designated Federal disaster areas but  not heat not Heat standing up more cooling centers  providing greater services for people no that is  not reimbursed by the government because there has  never been a FEMA extreme heat declared disaster which climate crisis disaster kills the most  people extreme heat is the climate disaster that  kills the most people in fact it kills more people  than all of the other disasters combined and we  kind of have a joke here that we show a picture  of before Heat Wave and then we show a picture  after a heat wave and it's the same picture and  that's part of the problem because people see  tornadoes and houses are upended and hurricanes and trees and utility poles and it's this Invisible Killer so it sounds like heat among the  various climate disasters does not get enough love  from the media and the government it absolutely  does not get enough love of course heat waves  aren't the only result of the warming Planet heat  also dries out vegetation and we get fires heat evaporates the land so we get droughts heat  evaporates the oceans so we get hurricanes the nature conservancy's Becca Benner cautions us  not to think of this Summer's heat as something  freakish and rare it's the new normal it is no  longer a future threat we are living this now so whether your basement just flooded whether you  just had to evacuate for a fire whether it's too  hot for you to go outside and enjoy yourself that  means we are now experiencing some of the impacts  of climate change we have to reduce emissions  and we have to do it immediately and faster.
