Stillwater Mill
The Stillwater Mill was a former textile factory located in Smithfield, Rhode Island. In September 2009, Breakwater Preservation Conservancy was given a donation of some 26 acres of property in Smithfield which included the remaining buildings of the Stillwater Worsted Mills. This was a very exciting acquisition for us as it is not only one of the most scenic locations in Rhode Island but it is also historically unique in that the whole concept of the mill community started on this very spot. During our investigation of T. Levy in 1909 and that the social innovations started there were far ahead of their time, are the creation of the Levy family. This and many other ideas originating at this mill can be argued to have been pivotal events leading towards success in both the first and second world war. Early history Native Americans, including the Narragansett tribe, Nipmuck and Wampanoag tribes, occupied Smithfield for thousands of years. Early roads followed presumed Nativ ...

Still Water (Love)
"Still Water (Love)" is a 1970 hit single written by Smokey Robinson and Frank Wilson (who also produced the track) for the Motown singing group Four Tops. The B-side was "Still Water (Peace)" and both songs appear on the 1970 album '' Still Waters Run Deep''. Background The socially conscious single was a departure from the group's past recordings and produced a smoother sound than the raucous Norman Whitfield productions that belayed on The Temptations. The single features Miracles member Marv Tarplin on guitar. Singers Brenda Joyce Evans and Billie Rae Calvin, brought to Motown by Bobby Taylor (and soon to be part of Norman Whitfield's group The Undisputed Truth), also add backing vocals. This song was noted for its repeated chord structure, beginning with E-Flat Major, shifting to C Minor, then to B-Flat Major over F, before starting again at E-Flat Major, over and over again, without any changes or alterations to the song's fade.

Still Water (sculpture)
''Still Water'' is a large public sculpture in bronze of a horse's head by Nic Fiddian-Green, dating to 2011. It is located at Achilles Way, near Hyde Park Corner in central London, and was initially installed at Marble Arch. The work remains owned by the artist, and is on loan to Westminster City Council. As inspiration for the work, the Marble Arch Partnership explains that the artist's "passion for the equine head began in 1983 as a student at Chelsea College of Arts when he was sent on a visit to the British Museum to seek inspiration. He encountered the Elgin Marbles and was struck by the horse of Selene, a remarkably well preserved fifth-century BC carving, which would become the foundational inspiration throughout his career". Fiddian-Green later reflected that "capturing the skill, vitality, balance and beauty, so evident in these Greek carvings is my continued aim". The artist works in clay, plaster, beaten lead and marble, and oversees the casting of the sculpture into ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
