Architecture Parallax, designed by William / Kaven and completed in 2019, is a five-story mixed-use building fronting Williams Avenue in Portland, Oregon. The 66-unit project features iridescent dark brick masonry and is highlighted by an electric blue gradient of vertical panels across the entire facade, an architectural intervention designed by Daniel Kaven. The panels gradate across the facade and appear unique from various angles; in particular, the autocentric experience driving up Williams Avenue, which is a one-way, appears differently from the pedestrian experience walking the opposing direction. A series of canvases from Kaven’s ongoing multimedia project Architecture of Normal adorn the lobby and hallways of Parallax. The pieces explore the history and future of the American West in relation to advancements in transportation. The base of Parallax consists of a continuous glass storefront that engages the Shaver and Williams frontages at the public street level. In an homage to a mural that once adorned the industrial building formerly on the site, William / Kaven commissioned the original artist, Tom Cramer, to create large-scale murals for both the base of the building and the residential lobby.

The home was designed as a refuge for extended family gatherings and to withstand the harsh conditions of the Lake Michigan shoreline. The ground floor is organized with three nodes in a pinwheel plan; the front being for arrival, the center for public gathering, and the lakefront for a private suite. The second floor features a den for film viewing, as well as a bunk room and two bedroom suites that all front on the massive lake expanse. The exterior of the structure is made of shou sugi ban and structural concrete. The project has been published in Architect Magazine, Dezeen and Gray Magazine, and was honored with a 2019 AIA Michigan Honor Award. Of the design, the AIA Michigan jury said: “The restrained material palette, exposed structure and sense of craft in this home creates wonderful spaces to live while the sensitivity to massing and siting creates a powerful connection to the beautiful site.”
54800889_1_6	54800889	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel%20Kaven	Daniel Kaven	Daniel Kaven. Architecture In November 2017, Kaven unveiled a proposed design for the tallest building on the West Coast, dubbed the Portland Twin Towers by the press. The development project, designed to occupy the site of a soon-to-be-demolished United States Postal Service headquarters, would include two skyscrapers connected by a glass-enclosed botanical bridge 680 feet in the air, as well as multiple high-rise buildings offering retail, office, hospitality, and residential typologies. The Broadway Corridor proposal has received wide media coverage, including in The Architect’s Newspaper, Dezeen, and Polis Magazine.

Architecture In 2011, William / Kaven completed the design of Interchange, a private residence oriented around a central courtyard. The project was recognized by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) with a 2011 Merit Award. In 2013, The Wall Street Journal published Interchange, writing: “The C-shaped home wraps around a central courtyard in back. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls face the courtyard, allowing a view from the kitchen and dining area into the master bedroom on the courtyard's other side. Connecting the spaces is an office which also has floor-to-ceiling glass windows. The interior rooms move around the courtyard, progressing from public (kitchen, dining and living room) to semi-private (office) to more private (master bedroom)."

Writing Kaven’s book Architecture of Normal (Birkhäuser, 2022) is a visual and literary exploration of how evolving forms of transportation have shaped the built environment of the American West since the arrival of the Spanish in New Mexico. The book includes extensive historical photography and original artwork by Kaven.

Kaven is known to orchestrate an immersive atmosphere in his gallery shows wherein photographic media and installations explore a single larger narrative. In a review of Kaven's solo show at Gallery 500, art critic John Motley wrote, "What makes Kaven's show so obsession-worthy is not the masterful way he shifts between media, but through the information he omits. With only a handful of events and scenes represented, the viewer is left to draw connections and conclusions from narrative fragments."

Photography In addition to Kaven’s architectural photography of his projects, which has been featured in outlets such as Dwell, ArchDaily, Gray Magazine, and Architect Magazine, the medium is the foundation for his visual art. His body of work often intermingles his photowork, archival images and his drawing and painting. A large selection of his photography and photo-based visual art is published in his book, Architecture of Normal.

In 2000, Kaven directed and produced The Glass Pool Incident, a multi-channel documentary feature about the lives of youth across five continents on the last day of the millennium. The film premiered at the Guild Cinema in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 2001 and was subsequently featured at a number of film festivals, including the New York International Independent Film and Video Festival. Variety reviewed the film in a March 2003 issue.

Film Kaven’s narrative short film Naked Seoul screened in conjunction with an immersive installation of the same name at Gallery 500 in 2004. In a review of the work, art critic Richard Speer wrote, “It’s a hypnotic short wherein each frame is immaculately composed and color-corrected. This is the kind of installation seldom seen and direly needed.” The show was designed as an immersive film and photography installation. Photographic plates were mounted in sections to large-form LED light boxes and shown in conjunction with filmwork, utilizing light emanating only from the art and installations to illuminate the entire gallery.

The Colorado Classic is a four-stage cycling race that was first held in 2017. First organized with both men's and women's races, the men's race was discontinued after the 2018 edition; the Classic continues as a women-only event. The men's version of the race was designated as 2.HC and was part of the UCI America Tour. In 2017, the race was long and was held in Colorado Springs, Breckenridge, and Denver. In 2018, the first two stages were in Vail (August 16–17) and the last two were in Denver (August 18–19). The Denver stages were accompanied by a music and cycling fan fest extravaganza called Velorama.

In December 2018, the organizers announced that the Classic would become a women-only race from 2019 forward. As part of the change, the women's purse was increased from $20,000 in 2018 to $75,000 for 2019—which was $5,000 more than the purse for the final men's Classic in 2018. The Classic became the only standalone women's stage race in the Western Hemisphere included in the official UCI calendar; the 2019 edition was the first to be part of USA Cycling's Pro Road Tour and is classified as a 2.1 race by the UCI. The 2020 edition was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gameplay The map the player receives from uncle Niccolo resembles those of the period: it is highly accurate close to Venice but grows much less so the further one goes. The mechanic has been praised by reviewers: "Though its gameplay was nowhere near as sophisticated as that of its near contemporary Civilization, Merchant Prince/Machiavelli did a better job of capturing what exploring is really like. Very rarely in the human experience are people pushing into an entirely blank unknown space. There are always rumors, always guesses, always some advice either from locals or past chronicles."

Reception Computer Gaming World called it "an excellent game of strategy and intrigue". Computer Game Review gave it a platinum triad award (high marks from three reviewers) before naming it the magazine's 1994 strategy game of the year. The Swedish magazine High Score scored it as 100%, calling it "a completely brilliant strategy game" (). The German magazine Power Play gave the game a 79%, calling it "a true gem in the genre of economic games" () and principally faulting its simplistic graphics. On the other hand, PC Player gave it a rating of 56, finding it essentially similar to The Patrician and Hanse, and Game Bytes considered it "almost great", given that the AIs—while otherwise competent—were unable to negotiate and interact at the level of Master of Orion, released the same year.

Merchant Prince was a runner-up for Computer Gaming Worlds "Strategy Game of the Year" award, which ultimately went to Master of Orion. The editors called Merchant Prince "a strategy game that captures the greed and treachery of medieval Italy even more than the classic Machiavelli boardgame from The Avalon Hill Game Company."

David Cook complained that "Machiavelli quickly becomes a game of doing the same old thing over and over" and that "for a game that touts its historical basis... it just doesn't mine the richness of their period". Jay & Dee gave it 3 of 5 stars.

Later views on the series It has subsequently earned praise compared to other turn-based strategy games, including by professors of history. By 2009, Troy Goodfellow was enthusing, "Merchant Prince/Machiavelli is one of the very few strategy games that gave you partial information and very few games since have picked up that torch. Fog of war generally applies to enemy troop positions, of course, but map information in strategy games is generally either perfect or perfectly unknown. Exploring is less about moving hesitantly to what you think is there and more about walking boldly into the darkness because you know that the next civilization can't be too close or that no one ever starts more than a few seconds from a gold mine." Home of the Underdogs describes it as "undoubtedly one of the best—if not THE best—medieval strategy games ever released".

Cora Millet-Robinet (28 November 1798 – 7 December 1890) was a French agricultural innovator and silk producer. She was the author of a highly popular handbook of farming, household management and cookery, known in English as The French Country Housewife.
54800994_0_1	54800994	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cora%20Millet-Robinet	Cora Millet-Robinet	Cora Millet-Robinet. Biography Her father and mother, both French in origin, had farmed in the French Caribbean colony of Saint-Domingue, which had become the independent state of Haiti. Dispossessed as a result of the Haitian revolution, they moved to Paris where Cora Robinet, their first daughter, was born. Nothing is known of her childhood or education. In 1823 she married her mother's brother, lieutenant-colonel François Millet who, likewise born in Saint-Domingue, had recently been widowed and had come to live with his sister's family in Paris. He also owned a château and farm in Poitou, La Cataudière in the commune of Availles-en-Châtellerault (département of Vienne). After their marriage he and Cora took up farming there, eagerly experimenting with the latest scientific methods. In 1832 they were joined by Stéphane Robinet, Cora's elder brother, a well known chemist. All three took a special interest in silkworm farming and the production of silk, an industry which was then rapidly expanding in France.

Of these three, Cora was the one who wrote, both for a scientific readership and for the general public. Her first book, in 1841, offered "Advice to young women on their life and their motherly duties when nursing children". In the same year she published the first of a series of "reports on the farming of silkworms ... by Messrs Millet and Robinet and Mme Millet" (her husband, her brother and herself). Her popular books focus on children, on women's education, and on the work typically done by 19th century farmers' wives: the kitchen and household, the management of servants, the farmyard or basse-cour with its poultry, the keeping of pigeons and rabbits. The most famous of all her books, Maison rustique des dames or The French Country Housewife, first published in two volumes in 1844/1845, is an encyclopedia of cookery, the country household, and many aspects of farming. Regularly updated, this work remained in print for a hundred years: the 21st edition appeared in 1944.

In 1847/1849, François and Cora sold La Cataudière and bought the partly ruined Domaine de Pont near Genillé, which they restored and extended. François died in 1860. At some date after that Cora went to live at a smaller property, La Berlonnière, at Saint-Benoît, probably easier for her to manage alone and close to Poitiers where she had contacts with publishers and was an honorary member of the Poitiers Society for Agriculture, Sciences and Arts. She was also a corresponding member of two French agricultural societies and of the Royal Academy of Agriculture in Turin. In 1884, at the age of eighty-five, she was one of the first two women to be honoured with the title Knight of the Order of Agricultural Merit.

As a sulfo-alkylating agent, 1,4-butanesultone is used to introduce the sulfobutyl group (–(CH2)4–SO3−) into hydrophobic compounds possessing nucleophilic functional groups, for example hydroxy groups (as in the case of β-cyclodextrin) or amino groups (as in the case of polymethine dyes). In such, the sulfobutyl group is present as neutral sodium salt and considerably increases the water solubility of the derivatives.

Preparation A lab scale synthesis of 1,4-butanesultone starts from 4,4'-dichlorodibutyl ether (accessible from tetrahydrofuran treated with phosphorus oxychloride and concentrated sulfuric acid), which reacts with sodium sulfite forming the corresponding 4,4'-butanedisulfonic disodium salt. By passing it through an acidic ion exchanger, the disodium salt is converted into the disulphonic acid which forms two molecules of 1,4-butanesultone at elevated temperature and reduced pressure under elimination of water. The yields obtained range from 72 to 80%.

Starting from 4-chlorobutan-1-ol (from tetrahydrofuran and hydrogen chloride in 54 to 57% yield), the sodium salt of 4-hydroxybutan-1-sulfonic acid is obtained with sodium sulfite. This salt is converted with strong acids (such as hydrochloric acid) into the very hygroscopic 4-hydroxybutanesulfonic acid and cyclized to 1,4-butanesultone under elimination of water.

The cyclization of 4-hydroxybutanesulfonic acid in aqueous solution proceeds particularly efficiently when heated with high-boiling, water-immiscible solvents (for example 1,2-dichlorobenzene or diethylbenzene, both boiling at about 180 °C) in which 1,4-butane-sultone dissolves and is thereby protected from hydrolysis in the aqueous medium. 1,4-butanesultone is obtained in yields of up to 99% upon reflux within one hour.

The vacuum distillation of the sodium salt of 4-hydroxybutanesulfonic acid leads in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid directly to 1,4-butanesultone. The sodium salt of 4-chlorobutane-1-sulfonic acid, which is obtained from 1,4-dichlorobutane with sodium sulfite, can also be cyclized to 1,4-butanesultone by heating to 180-250 °C.

The free-radical initiated sulfochlorination of 1-chlorobutane leads to a mixture of positionally isomeric sulfochlorides and chlorination products and is therefore not suitable for the direct preparation of 1,4-butanesultone.

Properties 1,4-butanesultone is a viscous, clear, colorless and odorless liquid which reacts in boiling water (to 4-hydroxybutanesulfonic acid) and alcohols (to 4-alkoxybutanesulfonic acid) and dissolves in many organic solvents. At temperatures below the melting point, the compound crystallizes giving "large, magnificent plates". [3] Compared to the homologous γ-sultone 1,3-propanesultone, 1,4-butanesultone is significantly less reactive as alkylating agent, but classified as mutagenic and carcinogenic.

"Google's Ideological Echo Chamber", commonly referred to as the Google memo, is an internal memo, dated July 2017, by US-based Google engineer James Damore () about Google's culture and diversity policies. The memo and Google's subsequent dismissal of Damore in August 2017 became a subject of interest for the media.

The company fired Damore for violation of the company's code of conduct. Damore filed a complaint with the National Labor Relations Board, but later withdrew this complaint. A lawyer with the NLRB wrote that his firing was proper. After withdrawing this complaint, Damore filed a class action lawsuit, retaining the services of attorney Harmeet Dhillon, alleging that Google was discriminating against conservatives, whites, Asians, and men. Damore withdrew his claims in the lawsuit to pursue arbitration against Google.

Course of events James Damore was spurred to write the memo when a Google diversity program he attended solicited feedback. The memo was written on a flight to China. Calling the culture at Google an "ideological echo chamber", the memo states that while discrimination exists, it is extreme to ascribe all disparities to oppression, and it is authoritarian to try to correct disparities through reverse discrimination. Instead, the memo argues that male to female disparities can be partly explained by biological differences. Alluding to the work of Simon Baron-Cohen, Damore said that those differences include women generally having a stronger interest in people rather than things, and tending to be more social, artistic, and prone to neuroticism (a higher-order personality trait). Damore's memorandum also suggests ways to adapt the tech workplace to those differences to increase women's representation and comfort, without resorting to discrimination.

The memo is dated July 2017 and was originally shared on an internal mailing list. It was later updated with a preface affirming the author's opposition to workplace sexism and stereotyping. On August 5, a version of the memo (omitting sources and graphs) was published by Gizmodo. The memo's publication resulted in controversy across social media, and in public criticism of the memo and its author from some Google employees. According to Wired, Google's internal forums showed some support for Damore, who said he received private thanks from employees who were afraid to come forward.

Damore was fired remotely by Google on August 7, 2017. The same day, prior to being fired, Damore filed a complaint with the National Labor Relations Board (case no. 32-CA-203891). The complaint is marked as "8(a)(1) Coercive Statements (Threats, Promises of Benefits, etc.)". A subsequent statement from Google asserted that its executives were unaware of the complaint when they fired Damore; it is illegal to fire an employee in retaliation for an NLRB complaint. Following his firing, Damore announced he would pursue legal action against Google.

Google's VP of Diversity, Danielle Brown, responded to the memo on August 8: "Part of building an open, inclusive environment means fostering a culture in which those with alternative views, including different political views, feel safe sharing their opinions. But that discourse needs to work alongside the principles of equal employment found in our Code of Conduct, policies, and anti-discrimination laws". Google's CEO Sundar Pichai wrote a note to Google employees, supporting Brown's formal response, and adding that much of the document was fair to debate. His explanation read "to suggest a group of our colleagues have traits that make them less biologically suited to that work is offensive and not OK ... At the same time, there are co-workers who are questioning whether they can safely express their views in the workplace (especially those with a minority viewpoint). They too feel under threat, and that is also not OK." Unauthorized ads criticizing Pichai and Google for the firing were put up shortly after. Damore characterized the response by Google executives as having "shamed" him for his views. CNN described the fallout as "perhaps the biggest setback to what has been a foundational premise for [Google] employees: the freedom to speak up about anything and everything".

Damore gave interviews to Bloomberg Technology and to the YouTube channels of Canadian professor Jordan Peterson and podcaster Stefan Molyneux. Damore stated that he wanted his first interviews to be with media who were not hostile. He wrote an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal, detailing the history of the memo and Google's reaction, followed by interviews for Reason, Reddit's "IAmA" section, CNN, CNBC, Business Insider, Joe Rogan, Dave Rubin, and political commentator Ben Shapiro.

In response to the memo, Google's CEO planned an internal "town hall" meeting, fielding questions from employees on inclusivity. The meeting was cancelled a short time before it was due to start, over safety concerns as "our Dory questions appeared externally this afternoon, and on some websites, Googlers are now being named personally". Outlets found to be posting these names, with pictures, included 4chan, Breitbart News, and Milo Yiannopoulos' blog. Danielle Brown, Google's VP for diversity, was harassed online, and temporarily disabled her Twitter account.

Damore withdrew his complaint with the National Labor Relations Board before the board released any official findings. However, shortly before the withdrawal, an internal NLRB memo found that his firing was legal. The memo, which was not released publicly until February 2018, said that while the law shielded him from being fired solely for criticizing Google, it did not protect discriminatory statements, that his memo's "statements regarding biological differences between the sexes were so harmful, discriminatory, and disruptive as to be unprotected", and that these "discriminatory statements", not his criticisms of Google, were the reason for his firing.

After withdrawing his complaint with the National Labor Relations Board, Damore and another ex-Google employee instead shifted focus to a class action lawsuit accusing Google of various forms of discrimination against conservatives, white people, and men. In October 2018, Damore and the other former Google employee dismissed their claims in the lawsuit, in order to pursue private arbitration against Google. Another engineer, Tim Chevalier, later filed a lawsuit against Google claiming that he was terminated in part for criticizing Damore's memo on Google's internal message boards.

Daniel Kaven. Architecture Parallax, designed by William / Kaven and completed in 2019, is a five-story mixed-use building fronting Williams Avenue in Portland, Oregon. The 66-unit project features iridescent dark brick masonry and is highlighted by an electric blue gradient of vertical panels across the entire facade, an architectural intervention designed by Daniel Kaven. The panels gradate across the facade and appear unique from various angles; in particular, the autocentric experience driving up Williams Avenue, which is a one-way, appears differently from the pedestrian experience walking the opposing direction. A series of canvases from Kaven’s ongoing multimedia project Architecture of Normal adorn the lobby and hallways of Parallax. The pieces explore the history and future of the American West in relation to advancements in transportation. The base of Parallax consists of a continuous glass storefront that engages the Shaver and Williams frontages at the public street level. In an homage to a mural that once adorned the industrial building formerly on the site, William / Kaven commissioned the original artist, Tom Cramer, to create large-scale murals for both the base of the building and the residential lobby.

The ground floor is organized with three nodes in a pinwheel plan; the front being for arrival, the center for public gathering, and the lakefront for a private suite. The second floor features a den for film viewing, as well as a bunk room and two bedroom suites that all front on the massive lake expanse. The exterior of the structure is made of shou sugi ban and structural concrete. The project has been published in Architect Magazine, Dezeen and Gray Magazine, and was honored with a 2019 AIA Michigan Honor Award. Of the design, the AIA Michigan jury said: “The restrained material palette, exposed structure and sense of craft in this home creates wonderful spaces to live while the sensitivity to massing and siting creates a powerful connection to the beautiful site.”

The development project, designed to occupy the site of a soon-to-be-demolished United States Postal Service headquarters, would include two skyscrapers connected by a glass-enclosed botanical bridge 680 feet in the air, as well as multiple high-rise buildings offering retail, office, hospitality, and residential typologies. The Broadway Corridor proposal has received wide media coverage, including in The Architect’s Newspaper, Dezeen, and Polis Magazine.

Daniel Kaven. Architecture In 2011, William / Kaven completed the design of Interchange, a private residence oriented around a central courtyard. The project was recognized by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) with a 2011 Merit Award. In 2013, The Wall Street Journal published Interchange, writing: “The C-shaped home wraps around a central courtyard in back. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls face the courtyard, allowing a view from the kitchen and dining area into the master bedroom on the courtyard's other side. Connecting the spaces is an office which also has floor-to-ceiling glass windows. The interior rooms move around the courtyard, progressing from public (kitchen, dining and living room) to semi-private (office) to more private (master bedroom)."

Kaven is known to orchestrate an immersive atmosphere in his gallery shows wherein photographic media and installations explore a single larger narrative. In a review of Kaven's solo show at Gallery 500, art critic John Motley wrote, "What makes Kaven's show so obsession-worthy is not the masterful way he shifts between media, but through the information he omits. With only a handful of events and scenes represented, the viewer is left to draw connections and conclusions from narrative fragments."

In a review of the work, art critic Richard Speer wrote, “It’s a hypnotic short wherein each frame is immaculately composed and color-corrected. This is the kind of installation seldom seen and direly needed.” The show was designed as an immersive film and photography installation. Photographic plates were mounted in sections to large-form LED light boxes and shown in conjunction with filmwork, utilizing light emanating only from the art and installations to illuminate the entire gallery.

Colorado Classic (cycling). The Colorado Classic is a four-stage cycling race that was first held in 2017. First organized with both men's and women's races, the men's race was discontinued after the 2018 edition; the Classic continues as a women-only event. The men's version of the race was designated as 2.HC and was part of the UCI America Tour. In 2017, the race was long and was held in Colorado Springs, Breckenridge, and Denver. In 2018, the first two stages were in Vail (August 16–17) and the last two were in Denver (August 18–19). The Denver stages were accompanied by a music and cycling fan fest extravaganza called Velorama.

Merchant Prince (video game). Gameplay The map the player receives from uncle Niccolo resembles those of the period: it is highly accurate close to Venice but grows much less so the further one goes. The mechanic has been praised by reviewers: "Though its gameplay was nowhere near as sophisticated as that of its near contemporary Civilization, Merchant Prince/Machiavelli did a better job of capturing what exploring is really like. Very rarely in the human experience are people pushing into an entirely blank unknown space. There are always rumors, always guesses, always some advice either from locals or past chronicles."

Computer Game Review gave it a platinum triad award (high marks from three reviewers) before naming it the magazine's 1994 strategy game of the year. The Swedish magazine High Score scored it as 100%, calling it "a completely brilliant strategy game" (). The German magazine Power Play gave the game a 79%, calling it "a true gem in the genre of economic games" () and principally faulting its simplistic graphics. On the other hand, PC Player gave it a rating of 56, finding it essentially similar to The Patrician and Hanse, and Game Bytes considered it "almost great", given that the AIs—while otherwise competent—were unable to negotiate and interact at the level of Master of Orion, released the same year.

Merchant Prince (video game). Later views on the series It has subsequently earned praise compared to other turn-based strategy games, including by professors of history. By 2009, Troy Goodfellow was enthusing, "Merchant Prince/Machiavelli is one of the very few strategy games that gave you partial information and very few games since have picked up that torch. Fog of war generally applies to enemy troop positions, of course, but map information in strategy games is generally either perfect or perfectly unknown. Exploring is less about moving hesitantly to what you think is there and more about walking boldly into the darkness because you know that the next civilization can't be too close or that no one ever starts more than a few seconds from a gold mine." Home of the Underdogs describes it as "undoubtedly one of the best—if not THE best—medieval strategy games ever released".

Cora Millet-Robinet. Cora Millet-Robinet (28 November 1798 – 7 December 1890) was a French agricultural innovator and silk producer. She was the author of a highly popular handbook of farming, household management and cookery, known in English as The French Country Housewife.

Cora Millet-Robinet

Cora Millet-Robinet. Biography Her father and mother, both French in origin, had farmed in the French Caribbean colony of Saint-Domingue, which had become the independent state of Haiti. Dispossessed as a result of the Haitian revolution, they moved to Paris where Cora Robinet, their first daughter, was born. Nothing is known of her childhood or education. In 1823 she married her mother's brother, lieutenant-colonel François Millet who, likewise born in Saint-Domingue, had recently been widowed and had come to live with his sister's family in Paris. He also owned a château and farm in Poitou, La Cataudière in the commune of Availles-en-Châtellerault (département of Vienne). After their marriage he and Cora took up farming there, eagerly experimenting with the latest scientific methods. In 1832 they were joined by Stéphane Robinet, Cora's elder brother, a well known chemist. All three took a special interest in silkworm farming and the production of silk, an industry which was then rapidly expanding in France.

Cora Millet-Robinet. Of these three, Cora was the one who wrote, both for a scientific readership and for the general public. Her first book, in 1841, offered "Advice to young women on their life and their motherly duties when nursing children". In the same year she published the first of a series of "reports on the farming of silkworms ... by Messrs Millet and Robinet and Mme Millet" (her husband, her brother and herself). Her popular books focus on children, on women's education, and on the work typically done by 19th century farmers' wives: the kitchen and household, the management of servants, the farmyard or basse-cour with its poultry, the keeping of pigeons and rabbits. The most famous of all her books, Maison rustique des dames or The French Country Housewife, first published in two volumes in 1844/1845, is an encyclopedia of cookery, the country household, and many aspects of farming. Regularly updated, this work remained in print for a hundred years: the 21st edition appeared in 1944.

Cora Millet-Robinet. In 1847/1849, François and Cora sold La Cataudière and bought the partly ruined Domaine de Pont near Genillé, which they restored and extended. François died in 1860. At some date after that Cora went to live at a smaller property, La Berlonnière, at Saint-Benoît, probably easier for her to manage alone and close to Poitiers where she had contacts with publishers and was an honorary member of the Poitiers Society for Agriculture, Sciences and Arts. She was also a corresponding member of two French agricultural societies and of the Royal Academy of Agriculture in Turin. In 1884, at the age of eighty-five, she was one of the first two women to be honoured with the title Knight of the Order of Agricultural Merit.
