firmly maintained their principles, even at the peril of life and
estate. On the morning after the burning of the Hall, the State
Anti-Slavery Society, pursuant to adjournment, met at the ruins of the
Hall, and, amidst the smoking walls, and with the mob lingering about
them, they proceeded to their business--Abraham L. Pennock, the Vice
President of the Society, presiding. The editor of the Pennsylvania
Freeman, John G. Whittier, whose publication office and papers had been
destroyed by the mob, in his next paper published the following
editorial article, which I have copied simply to show that while the
abolitionists on this occasion maintained their sentiments in a clear
and unequivocal manner, they did not indulge in the language of revenge
or anger.


"We perhaps need offer no apology to our distant readers, for
the want of variety in our present number. Ours must be this
week a record of violence--a story of persecution and outrage.
We hardly dare trust ourselves to speak upon this matter. It is
our desire to do so, if at all, in a tone of calmness,--to hold
ourselves aloof, as far as possible, from the present
excitement,--to utter our abiding testimony, now dearer than
ever to our hearts, not in the language of passion, but firmly
and decidedly.

"Our readers will gather from the statements made in the
different extracts in our paper, and especially from the Address
of the Executive Committee of the State Anti-Slavery Society,
the leading facts of the outrage. Of the course pursued by the
civil authorities, we leave the community to judge. Our own
reliance for protection has been upon that Providence whose
mercy is over all,--in the justice of our cause, and in our
conscious innocence of heart and integrity of purpose. We
rejoice, and in so doing, the abolitionists of Pennsylvania
unite with us, that human life was not sacrificed in defence of
our Hall, our persons, and our property. We kn

Various, or Various Production, is an English dubstep/electronic music duo formed in 2003. The group blends samples, acoustic and electronic instrumentation, and singing from a revolving cast of vocalists. Its members, Adam and Ian, purposefully give very little information about the group or themselves, and tend to do little in the way of self-promotion.[1] Nevertheless, the group began winning critical acclaim with its single releases in 2005 and 2006.[2] Their full-length for XL, The World is Gone, arrived in July of 2006.[3][4][5][6][7] They have released a large number of vinyl EPs and 7 records, as well as digital exclusives for Rough Trade, iTunes, and Boomkat.[8]

Alfred Binet (July 8, 1857 October 18, 1911), French psychologist and inventor of the first usable intelligence test, the basis of todays IQ test. Born in Nice, Binet was a French psychologist who published the first modern intelligence test, the Binet-Simon intelligence scale, in 1905. His principal goal was to identify students who needed special help in coping with the school curriculum. Along with his collaborator Thodore Simon, Binet published revisions of his intelligence scale in 1908 and 1911, the last appearing just before his untimely death. A further refinement of the Binet-Simon scale was published in 1916 by Lewis M. Terman, from Stanford University, who incorporated the German psychologist William Sterns proposal that an individuals intelligence level be measured as an intelligence quotient (I.Q.). Termans test, which he named the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale formed the basis for one of the modern intelligence tests still commonly used today. They are all colloquiall
