Tragedy in Connecticut: How do children, parents move forward? | Synopsis

Tragedy in Connecticut: How do children, parents move forward?

Excerpt:

On Friday, at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. , a gunman (or two gunmen) opened fire in a classroom, wounding multiple people and, perhaps, killing dozens. The gunman is now dead. Blood was spilled in an elementary school. An entire kindergarten classroom is unaccounted for as I write this. Kids whose major concern was whether their art projects were up to par and how many hours were left before recess collided with the ultimate terror of a madman seeking to end their lives. Kindergarteners are almost certainly among the casualties. And the psychological bleeding from this incident will not be easily stopped. The limits, which even the most violent (or violently ill) among us would seemingly never violate, continue to be violated. The shooting of 5-year-olds would have seemed to be one such limit.

Hong Kong: A cruise for cremains

Cincinnati - Spring Grove Cemetery & Arboretum "Light after Death" by David Paul Ohmer

Excerpt:

New sketches from a company in the city on China's southern coast have proposed the creation of a floating cemetery. Designed as a possible solution to Hong Kong's shortage building space -- particularly for graveyards - Bread Studio has come up with "Floating Eternity." The structure would hold a rotating wall of 370,000 niches which are compartments allotted for people to place their urn containing the remains of their loved ones. Designed like a cruise ship, the floating cemetery would anchor along Hong Kong's coastline, docking at a designated pier for visitors who want to visit their deceased relatives. "Architects are always made to think about life when designing buildings but not many think about death," said Benny Lee, a designer at Bread Studio.

"I was watching TV and saw a group of people encouraged by the government to scatter their loved ones' ashes in the sea and noticed that the boat they were using to transport people out was really small. I thought why not make that boat bigger, better and more enjoyable for families."
0.110258	"The design also focuses on plenty of greenery with bamboo gardens; something you don't see in the stony graveyards in Hong Kong despite them being chiseled into hills because there's simply no space," said Lee.
0.260138	"A floating cemetery is the next natural step in Hong Kong's history of graveyards," said Lee.
0.0295217	"We're aware that the wall of columbarium on the floating cemetery will also, at some point, reach its limit so we suggest stacking up additional storeys on top of the wall," said Lee.

"But most importantly, it's a short-term alternative. Who knows, we could be seeing a sea of floating cemeteries in a few years from now."

Key:

Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
