http://www.nga.gov/education/classroom/self_portraits/act_warhol.shtm Who am I? is a set of art and writing activities designed to help middle school students begin to answer this important question. Students will look carefully at self-portraits in the National Gallery of Art's collection by Vincent van Gogh, Paul Gauguin, Judith Leyster, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and Andy Warhol and respond to questions online. They will also make a variety of self-portraits and write poetry, a speech, and a letter about themselves—all to be placed in their self-portrait portfolio.
Who am I? is not a simple question. In fact, it leads to a long list of related questions. Here are a few:
What are the distinctive things that make me "me"? How do I want people to see me? How can I express my many different sides? How can I reinvent myself for various purposes or times in my life? How am I changing from day to day or year to year? Who do I want to become? http://www.nga.gov/education/classroom/self_portraits/index.shtm

Friday, May 09 2003 @ 11:11 AM Eastern Daylight Time Contributed by: Admin Views: 950 Donald Rumsfeld, the U.S. Defense Secretary, who was a director of a company which won $200m contract to sell nuclear reactors to North Korea in 2000, is the same one who declared North Korea a terrorist state, part of the axis of evil and a target for regime change In 2002, a British daily reported Friday, May 9. Rumsfeld was a non-executive director of ABB, a European engineering giant based in Zurich, when it won a $200m (£125m) contract to provide the design and key components for the reactors, according to The Guardian. The current Defense Secretary sat on the board from 1990 to 2001, earning $190,000 a year. He left to join the Bush administration. The reactor deal was part of President Bill Clinton's policy of persuading the North Korean regime of positively engaging with the west. The sale of the nuclear technology was a high-profile contract. ABB's then chief executive, Goran Lindahl, visited North Korea in November 1999 to announce ABB's "wide-ranging, long-term cooperation agreement" with the communist government. The company also opened an office in the country's capital, Pyongyang, and the deal was signed a year later in 2000. Despite this, Rumsfeld's office said that the Defense Secretary did not "recall it being brought before the board at any time". In a statement to the American magazine Newsweek, his spokeswoman Victoria Clarke alleged that there "was no vote on this". However, a spokesman for ABB told the Guardian Thursday, May 8, that "board members were informed about the project which would deliver systems and equipment for light water reactors". The success of campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq have enhanced the status of Rumsfeld in Washington. Two years after leaving ABB, Rumsfeld now considers North Korea a "terrorist regime ..teetering on the verge of collapse" and which was on the verge of becoming a proliferator of nuclear weapons.
During a bout of diplomatic activity over Christmas he warned that the U.S. could fight two wars at once - a reference to the then forthcoming conflict with Iraq. After Baghdad fell, Rumsfeld said Pyongyang should draw the "appropriate lesson". Critics of the administration's bellicose language on North Korea say that the problem was not that Rumsfeld supported the Clinton-inspired diplomacy and the ABB deal but that he did not "speak up against it", according to the paper. "One could draw the conclusion that economic and personal interests took precedent over non-proliferation," the paper quoted Steve LaMontagne, an analyst with the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation in Washington as saying. Many members of the Bush administration are on record as opposing Clinton's plans - saying that weapons-grade nuclear material could be extracted from the type of light water reactors that ABB sold. Rumsfeld's deputy, Paul Wolfowitz, and the state department's number two diplomat, Richard Armitage, both opposed the deal as did the Republican presidential candidate, Bob Dole, whose campaign Rumsfeld ran and where he also acted as defense adviser. One unnamed ABB board director told Fortune magazine that Rumsfeld was involved in lobbying his hawkish friends on behalf of ABB. The Clinton package sought to defuse tensions on the Korean peninsula by offering supplies of oil and new light water nuclear reactors in return for access by inspectors to Pyongyang's atomic facilities and a dismantling of its heavy water reactors which produce weapons-grade plutonium. Light water reactors are known as "proliferation-resistant" but, in the words of one expert, they are not "proliferation-proof". The type of reactors involved in the ABB deal produce plutonium which needs refining before it can be weaponised. One U.S. congressman and critic of the North Korean regime described the reactors as "nuclear bomb factories". North Korea expelled the inspectors last year and withdrew from the nuclear non-proliferation treaty in January at about the same time that the Bush administration authorized $3.5m to keep ABB's reactor project going.
Just months after Rumsfeld took office, President George Bush ended the policy of engagement and negotiation pursued by Clinton - saying he did not trust North Korea and pulled the plug on diplomacy. Pyongyang warned that it would respond by building nuclear missiles. A review of American policy was announced and the bilateral confidence-building steps, key to Clinton's policy of detente, halted. By January 2002, the Bush administration had placed North Korea in the "axis of evil" alongside Iraq and Iran. If there was any doubt about how the White House felt about North Korea this was dispelled by Bush, who told the Washington Post last year: "I loathe [North Korea's leader] Kim Jong-il." North Korea is thought to have offered to scrap its nuclear facilities and missile program and to allow international nuclear inspectors into the country. But Pyongyang demanded that security guarantees and aid from the U.S. must come first. Bush now insists that he will only negotiate a new deal with Pyongyang after the nuclear program is scrapped.
Washington believes that offering inducements would reward Pyongyang's "blackmail" and encourage other "rogue" states to develop weapons of mass destruction. Web Results 1 - 10 of about 2,960 for Rumsfeld sold nuclear reactors to N. Korea. (0.16 seconds)
