Rock Formations in Newfoundland

These rock formations were created, the story has it, when two tectonic plates collided (millions of years ago) and one of the plates slid under the other, pushing the seabed floor to the surface.

Charles T. Epps versus Peter Stuyvesant

Following the recommendation of Doctor Charles T. Epps, superintendent of the Jersey City public schools, Jersey City board of education ordered the removal of a 97 year-old statute from the front of Public School 11. See Ricardo Kaulessar, Case of the Missing Statute, Hudson Reporter.com (August 1, 2010). It appears that Dr. Epps and the board of education figured that the image of a Dutch man, even a venerable Dutch man, is an inappropriate one to stand in front of Martin Luther King, Jr., School. See Old Peter ripped from his pedestal outside School 11 Jersey Journal column (Feb. 6, 2010).

"The statue of Peter Stuyvesant is under a tarpaulin on a platform truck at the Burns Bros. memorials and markers firm on Tonnelle avenue in Jersey City." Augustin C. Torres, Journal Square: The statue of Peter Stuyvesant - will it get ornamental use?, Jersey City List (Feb. 10, 2010).
