The losses to the Faith in Wyoming, as in neighbouring states, have been appalling. Vicars Apostolic, afterwards bishops, had no funds for educating or supporting missionary priests.

"Wikipedia is the CUNY of the Internet. It tries to be something that reaches people where they are. We try to support folks all around. There is definitely some sensibility that is shared with public knowledge and public education that is wide ranging.â"
"Some people think about Wikipedia as a technological projects. I don't think of it as that way. I think of it as a community project and really community organizing. And that could be done one level with like volunteers in different places and another way could be done, throughout an institution... finding the stakeholders and what folks are interested in and ways to support them. And the nice thing about Wikipedia is it's kind of an encyclopedia. And so it has a little bit of everything. And so there are a lot of different aspects of CUNY, of the University, of classes that folks teach, of archival projects, that might match up with different aspects of the wikiverse."
"...in certain circumstances, different cultural institutions have hired folks. It could be on a temporary basis. It could be on a more long term basis to help support Wikipedia and Wikimedia projects from within an institution, to help connect the collections at the institution or the areas of study of the institution with the Wikimedia websites and with the community, and various communities. So this actually started, around museums. So that was previously as the Wikimedia residents at the Guggenheim and at the Met. It's an idea of sort of modeled on an artist in residence, which is a strange analogy, but that's the terminology they have. But it's basically finding a way to make connections between the larger volunteer communities and the institution and finding ways that these institutions can collaborate with each other. It's part of a larger network."
"I think Wikipedia is a pretty good, valuable resource if you come across the casually, in like a search engine or something. But I think it's a lot more valuable if you understand how it works and you understand how to read it, you understand how the citations work. You can see the history of every Wikipedia article from the day it was created till today. Every single change back and forth, good and bad. You can see all the discussions that people have had about that article. What's included in that article? What's not included in that article? What, how, how things should be included? What proportion should we show this view or that view? What are the appropriate, appropriate sources to cite? So I think the value of Wikipedia, which is I think it's probably enough if you find it in a search engine, but if you go through it and you understand how it works, I think it's exponentially more valuable and more interesting and more like sort of creative and more of a fun sense of community, and understanding."
"Like other emerging towns and cities in the and in the developing world, 's vulnerability to mainstream cultural backwash and population flooding puts it on the list of endangered places. And because it is geographically set in the middle of a true natural wildernessâriverine, high desert plateau of central New MexicoâAlbuquerque is particularly defenseless against the fast-paced flow of the mainstream world. The attraction of its emptiness seems as irresistible as gravity.

"(About w:fr:Adrien Candiard) He could have followed in his father's footsteps, this young man who will turn 40 on 31 October. When he decided to embrace the novitiate, he was one of the most highly regarded ghostwriters for Dominique Strauss-Kahn, who was running in the French presidential primaries.

"Is it right to declare a person dead based on a legal convention whose sole purpose is to facilitate organ transplants?"
"Unfortunately, all organs, with the exception of corneas, have this unfortunate characteristic: in order to be transplanted, they must be removed from the âdonor'sâ body while their heart is still beating, their blood is still circulating, their skin is still rosy and warm, their kidneys are still secreting urine, and any pregnancy is still continuing, to the extent that it is necessary to administer curare drugs to prevent unpleasant reactions when the surgeon makes the incision. Do these seem like corpses to you? Yes, transplant surgeons assure us. No, according to a law of the state: in fact, âcorpse means: âThe human body deprived of cardiorespiratory and cerebral functionsââ (Ministry of Health circular no. 24 of 24 June 1993)."

Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
