There was a lot to master. In Detroit, you hit a patch of mud and you accelerate. I drove that tractor so deep in the mud it took two weeks to get it out. Wine-drinking may seem glamorous, but winemaking is far from it. The making of the fermented-fruit-in-liquid-form starts in the field, with careful curation of the grapes and a harvest of the prime fruit. The cellar master oversees activity within the cellar, and the winemaker keeps close tabs, constantly tasting the developing wine.
After aging in casks, for a few months or a few years, the libation is bottled, sold, and consumed — or, in the case of reds, aged even longer. I shoveled the stuff out of the tank. We wanted to touch the whole grape.
Grapes had to be paired with the right landscape. So the Fishers had to master more than just tractors and mud. The result? Whitney and Fred Fisher in front of a favorite tree. Photo: Tim Carl. Each of the three Fisher children has an affinity for a different aspect of running a vineyard. Whitney, the eldest, is head of winemaking and farming. Her brother, Rob, is the general manager, and her sister, Cameron, handles marketing. A summer job in a lab changed that; she switched to American history.
The two functions serve as trade-off maps between the chosen model perturbation and all other model parameters, whereas the two parameters indicate whether the chosen model perturbation is well resolved in the inversion. While the point-spread function and the point-spread parameter work in relative sense, the resolution function and the resolution parameter are absolute quantities, regardless of the misfit function used in the inversion. Besides the optimization point of view, we also treat inverse problems from Tarantola's perspective -- the Bayesian inference, where each Earth model is associated with certain probability, preferably obeying multivariate normal distribution by choosing Cartesian model parameters, such as the logarithm of wavespeed.
With a new limit-memory square root variable metric algorithm, we may sample the a posteriori distribution of model parameters, which allows statistical analysis on the inversion, e. Although, due to limit of time, seismic examples are to be added, analytical examples involving 20, model parameters validate our theory and algorithm, and it is promising that they can be easily adapted to real seismic applications. After solving both resolution and non-uniqueness issues, we finally extend capability of seismic inversions to consider noise simulations, i.
The plantings grew acre by acre, and the land teems with life; Merwin still tends to most of the forest himself. More than species of plants populate the forest, and dozens of species of rare or endangered palm trees — the poet has a network of growers who help him track down new ones all the time — house everything from geckos to raspy-voiced myna birds.
Under the palms, it is hard to tell what time it is. The house Merwin built is invisible from the road, nestled halfway down a path on the lip of the dormant volcano Haleakala that winds mazelike into the valley of the forest.
It juts out like a tree house into the palms, creating the impression of hovering in the canopy. He and Paula kept the house off the power grid, and electricity comes from the solar panels that cover the roof. He helped to design a series of water catchments, cisterns, and filters so that they get by using only rainwater, stockpiled during the wet season. Drought, Merwin admits, is inconvenient, but he is not about to start compromising now.
It is not in W. This summer, he was appointed national poet laureate by Librarian of Congress James H. Gentle, fiercely intelligent, and quick to laugh, Merwin, now 82, is willing to lead a conversation about his life and his writing through loops and digressions for hours.
As a young child in working-class Union City, N. A few times he accompanied his father, who could be distant and punitive, to study in the church where he was a Presbyterian minister, and young Merwin gazed through the window at the river, with the ferries and freighters passing by.
Whole trains were crossing the river on railroad ferries, all shades of orange in the sunlight. Princeton is the second oldest in the group after Ray Ray. Many fans have described Princeton like the other boys to be humble despite their fame. Princeton's signature is his afro and his many shades. He also known to encourage Positivity and Self love with his friends and the fans, his motto being "Spread the Peace!
He along with the other Mindless Behavior members are currently single.
