Crossing the Divide: Conversations in Irish Folk Music
A Performance by Professor Sean Henne
March 17, 2020
Presented by Professor Sean Henne
In honor of St. Patrick’s Day and in keeping with its humankind series, West Shore Community College presented a musical presentation and lecture by Professor Seán Henne. Drawing on the strength of his family’s Irish musical tradition and his own experiences as an Irish studies scholar, Professor Henne traces themes of loss and reconciliation across several Irish folksongs. Both the history of Ireland and the experiences of immigrant families like Henne’s are full of hardship and alienation. But they are also full of hope and efforts at making real, positive, human connections despite the challenges, and that is the theme of the evening.

Breccia is an inspired grouping of poems from celebrated poet, translator, anthologist and essayist, Pierre Joris. After a limited initial publication by Station Hill/ Guernica, this wonderful collection will be finally be available once again.
“[Breccia] is a showcase for poems from roughly twenty, sometimes rather fugitive, volumes, written and published during a time when Joris was living as a kind of postmodern nomad. One of the virtues of this in-gathering of work is that it makes clear the extent to which a sense of ‘nomadism’ — of being intensely in a place because one knows one has already left it — marks Joris’ poetry…. The sense of immediacy in his work is striking. But the images of weather and shifting light and shade that give so many poems their climate of feeling, always play against a complex flow of conceptual activity and the possibility, but only the possibility, of archetypal permanence…” — Don Byrd
“…This is honest, radical work, close to the beginning of a poetic disenchanted with its own airs and graces…Pierre Joris is a wonderful poet of remarkable breadth of concern and lyric occasion.” — Robert Kelly
“…The scope of the work is large, the thrust is synthesizing, the idiom particular and rich…” — Jerome Rothenberg
TO THINK WITHOUT FEAR
The Liberation of the Imagination
A new and previously unpublished book by the late Anthony Duncan, author of The Christ, Psychotherapy and Magic. In this extraordinary work Duncan openly and frankly examines the experience of psychic communication with “extra-terrestrial” contacts, and the leaps of faith and mutual acceptance on which such contact depends. Incorporating many of his own personal experiences, the book represents a sane and sensible discussion of a controversial subject by a Christian priest and mystic who has never been afraid to think and minister beyond conventional boundaries.
THE CURVE OF THE LAND
Set in 1980s Britain against the backdrop of ecological crisis, The Curve of the Land is a circumspect novel about our modern relationship with the Earth, which in this case is represented by the landscapes of western Britain. Jessica, an ardent but unfulfilled activist, joins a tour of megalithic sites hoping to find renewal from relationship burn-out and a sterile work environment. The characters on the tour are a good cross-section of the way ‘new age’, occult and mystical threads got grafted on to the more intellectual or ‘respectable’ British stock, throwing up eccentric cameos of people and comic situations. The mysterious atmosphere of the stones and her growing attraction for the charismatic tour leader builds to a final shamanic climax in the wilds of West Penwith, Cornwall.
Author of The Return of King Arthur: Completing the Quest for Wholeness, Diana Durham explores eco-shamanism, sex magic, goddess and ‘Gaia’ consciousness, as well as emerging archaeological and scientiﬁc ﬁndings pertaining to the sacred sites of Britain. Strongly influenced by Jungian psychologist Sylvia Brinton Perera’s Descent to the Goddess: A Way of Initiation for Women, The Curve of the Land follows the journey of a woman in contemporary society seeking to reconnect to an ancient land and share in its spiritual topography.
THE FAIRY REALM
While examining various belief traditions across Europe and the United States, The Fairy Realm consults an assemblage of anecdotal evidence as to the existence of fairies and other creatures that appear in fairy tales – giants, ogres, trolls, mermaids, brownies, wildmen, kelpie, puca and other mythological beings. Ronan Coghlan, whose works include The Encyclopaedia of Arthurian Legends, Handbook of Fairies, Irish Myth and Legend and The Grail, examines an array of alleged fairy sightings in a bold endeavour to find where fairies fit into the modern scientific concepts of the universe. Unlike myriad books churned out on ghosts and extraterrestrials, this book rigorously tackles the possibility of fairy existence, and in doing so dares to approach all manner of sceptical argument and ‘borderline science.’
“So I cannot say for sure how old I am because I cannot see my beginnings. When I try to look, I’m peering into the lake bottom which is my genesis: things are stirred up, rising like muddy, formless wraiths that soon dissolve back into the dark, cold waters. There is a pressure in those depths on my eyeballs which makes my vision not true. Strong currents. Things touch me: debris? rotting vegetation? old loves? mouldering corpses? memories of my creation? It is deep, deep water and yet I can breathe it as well as air…”
Following The Giftie and The Fat Git Alan Richardson returns to the Arthuriad once more in order to tell the story of Lancelot du Lac, and not quite the one you might be used to from Malory, Geoffrey of Monmouth, Von Eschenbach or Chrétien de Troyes. His du Lac is part ancestral faery being, part “magickal current,” part historical member of the del Acqs family, and wholly an archetype resonating to the “various tetchy aspects” of the author’s personality. With his usual aplomb Richardson utilises the first person narrator to coax du Lac to tell a story by what he says, but also another, separate, parallel story by what he doesn’t say. The experimental nature of the book is what gives this story its peculiar impetus and readers will be treated to a probing, circuitous fiction in order to find their own unique du Lac, who at the end of the process should be as clear as an unmuddied lake.
BEYOND THE SUN
This book contains the formerly unpublished Inner Order Teachings of the missing order of the Golden Dawn – Whare Ra. Whare Ra managed to keep secret and above all keep running long after the other Golden Dawn magical orders had given up the ghost. Closing in the late 1970s, the Order was founded by Dr Robert Felkin nearly 100 years ago. From its base in New Zealand, Whare Ra became a secret forefront of occult teaching.
Nick Farrell presents the Second Order Rituals of this Order including the 6=5 and 7=4 in their complete and unedited state as well as the 6=5 training papers and lectures. He also examines the history of Whare Ra and provides commentaries to the rituals. Contained in this book are the 6=5 experiences of the poet WB Yeats and other adepts who went through the various initiations. It also contains magical exercises inspired by the Whare Ra material.
THE RITE OF THE GODGAME
Experimental Fiction and the Persistence of Religion and Magic
Experimental, fabulist and postmodern fiction is often seen to present an official break with traditional storytelling and Roland Barthes’ famous ‘Death of the Author’ announcement came hard on the heels of Nietzsche’s equally shattering “God is dead and we have killed him…” claim. In a robust study of the most experimental, self-reflexive and deconstructionist fictions of the twentieth century, Daniel Staniforth examines the presence of religious and theological discourses often found in tandem with a stated aversion to them, where authors attempt to break from tradition but get caught up in the trappings. Without confining the twentieth century to a vacuum, or splintering it through myriad separatist ‘isms,’ Staniforth explores the experimental fiction of our time as an extension of the European avant-garde and modernist movements, which in turn are informed by nineteenth century collectives. In a book that willingly sidesteps the boundaries between art, fiction, philosophy, theory and theology, he examines the presence of enduring tropes and how they incorporate appended discourses to provide for an ambient and metaphoric state within fiction. The direct analogue between artistic creations and the foremost creation; between the writer and the traditional god; between the reader and the receiver of ideology provide for a series of mirrored states that become active through language. Included in the ambitious scope of this work are various related commentaries on surrealism, hermeneutics, metatheology, liturgy, dualism, ritual magic, illusion, theatre, dream theory, cathartic theatre, cinema, game theory, ventriloquism, puppetry, labyrinths, automatism, cyberspace, mythology, channelling, poetry and the mysteries.
EARTH GOD RISEN
The story of the Horned God can be heard in various mythologies from around the world and like the Goddess he has become part of our psychological and spiritual heritage. Alan Richardson revisits Earth God Rising, last published in 1995 by Llewellyn as part of their Men’s Spirituality Series, adding a new commentary and a number of illustrations.
Readers of Alan Richardson have come to love the sartorial wit, honest assessment and fresh exploration. His expertise on magical matters and its practitioners make for an insightful commentary on male deity – but always prodding readers to forge their own paths and make up their own minds. Earth God Risen is an excellent book for both new seekers and seasoned practitioners.
What is the true underlying nature of reality and what is my place in it? Does my life have meaning, or am I a cosmic accident? Are the answers to these questions found in religion, or is science where the real enlightenment lies? Is it even possible to know? In this bewildering world of differing beliefs, what chance do I have of finding any genuine truth? And where do I even begin? With two words: question everything.
In childhood, we are all like sponges, soaking up information without any critical thinking. As adults, how much of our worldview reflects beliefs and assumptions from those early years that we have never reassessed? Darryl Sloan steps outside of conventional wisdom and brings together a wealth of insight from the spheres of religion, philosophy, science, psychology, parapsychology and occultism. A highly unusual, but deeply rational and life-changing truth emerges from this esoteric study: the Universe is One, and you are It.
ENOCHIAN CHESS OF THE GOLDEN DAWN
Enochian Chess began in the late 1800s when occultists W. Wynn Westcott and MacGregor Mathers updated the Enochian system of magic for the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. They incorporated a fourhanded chess game originally dubbed ‘Rosicrucian chess’ – later renamed ‘Enochian Chess’ due to its derivation from the Enochian Tablets of Dr. John Dee.
In this revised version of her classic text C.L. Zalewski explores Enochian chess both as a fascinating teaching tool in Western Magic and also an exciting game. She has added a new chapter with instructions on how to use the game four dimensionally, which she calls ‘Trans-dimensional Chess,’ that breaks down a complex process and allows for keen players to unlock new and amazing dynamics.
The Edge of Forever
A Middle Eastern Legend from possible Sumerian origins portrays the essence of evil as a voluptuous woman. In Hebrew lore her name is Lilith, once made infamous as Adam’s first wife and the mate of Lucifer, Archangel of Hell, now immortalized as such in the world of literature, art and music
The Name of Lilith so terrified ancient Israelites and their neighbours that amulets were fashioned to be worn to fend of evil fiends, demons and monsters of the night who sought out the innocent to corrupt them with her peculiar sexual charms. The same fear races in the blood of many today, not only in the lands of the prophets and kings, but throughout the modern world. First published by Ide House in 1998, Lilith: The Edge of Forever provides a fresh history of this archetypal woman, woven skilfully by Filomena Pereira into a web of stunning sensuality, myth and magic for all to see. No longer a cartoonish deviant force, Lilith comes alive in this bold study complete with new insights and sustained connection.
MUSIC AND THE CELTIC OTHERWORLD
Many cultures throughout history have made reference to an Otherworldly or spiritual dimension of music, and Scotland and Ireland are no exception. From the descriptions of the supernatural power of the ‘fairy’ harp in the Scottish ballads to the sacred music of God’s Heaven in the saints’ lives, Celtic sources provide a rich and varied selection of references to music and its perceived Otherworld power and influence.
First published in 1999 by Edinburgh University Press, this important book is the first ever comprehensive collection of references from primary source material in translation from early Celtic tales, folklore, ballads, place-lore, saints’ lives, poetry and proverbs. Dr. Karen Ralls is a noted medieval scholar, lecturer, conference speaker, historical sites tour guide and workshop presenter. Her books include Medieval Mysteries: A Guide to History, Lore, Places and Symbolism, The Templars and the Grail: Knights of the Quest, The Knights Templar Encyclopedia and Mary Magdalene: Her History and Myths Revealed.
“This is a fascinating study of an important and neglected theme in Celtic literature and religion. Meticulously researched and sensitively written, it highlights the importance attached to music in both pre-Christian and early Christian Ireland and Scotland and its particular association with the Otherworld.” – Dr Ian Bradley, University of St Andrews
“…an authoritative and accessible book on the spiritual dimension of music.” – The Scotsman
“A fascinating study which is highly recommended.” – The Cauldron
COMING EARLY 2015
IN THE GROVE OF THE DRUIDS
The Druid Teachings of Ross Nichols
A major study of the work of one of the seminal thinkers in Western Paganism. Ross Nichols was Chief of the Order of Bards Ovates and Druids until his death in 1975. He was a man who believed passionately in the power of myth, poetry, ritual and drama, and in the interconnectedness of the world’s religious systems. This fascinating and wide-ranging selection of Ross Nichols’ work contains writings on key themes including ritual, festivals, mythology, symbolism, temple architecture and archaeology, and the links between Druidry and other ancient wisdom traditions. It is the essential resource for students of Druidry and lovers of Celtic spirituality.
PORTRAIT OF SWEENEY
The ever-enigmatic Hugh Fox explores the inner sanctum of an LA-based Irish priest revisiting his hometown of Athenry, Ireland. This homecoming manifests both psychologically and metaphysically, not only showing the conflicts in the psyche of a Roman Catholic priest but also taking on the wider issue of the social sea change that has been taking place in the last few decades with the secularisation of society. As with previous novels, Fox shows both depth and subtlety in the agonising of his eponymous hero, artfully portraying conflicts that have a resonance with contemporary society. He presents this in his accustomed and very vivid way through the conversations between characters and his acute and amusing observation of them.
Portrait of Sweeney could be read as a doff of the cap to James Joyce’s Irish portrait in that it also shows some Modernist éclat. The deeper psychological and philosophical concerns of the priest fittingly called Joseph are transmuted to the reader through Notebook entries that intertextually weave with the larger narrative, which in the author’s own words present a “primitive existentialist entirely in love with The Now, caught between Catholic theology and the idiot materialism/superficiality of the contemporary world.” Although principally known as a poet, Hugh Fox has amassed an invigorating body of fiction and it’s no wonder that Bill Ryan likens him to the “Paul Bunyan of American Letters, part myth, part monster, and, myself-as-subject, a magnificent non-stop storyteller.”

When Jesus rose from the dead, grief departed, and His suffering—so wrenching and complete—became a thing of the past.
At the moment of Christ’s resurrection, His focus, and ours, turned to the future.
The miraculous lesson of Easter is this: Through Jesus’ death on the Cross, we have been granted a second chance.
We have permission to leave our old lives behind and focus on the new day, with all its potential for joy and choices that honor God.
Have you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour? If not, Easter is the perfect time to ask Him into your heart and your life.
Stop reliving the past and beating yourself up over all the mistakes you’ve made. The slate has been wiped clean!
Make a decision to paint a new life for yourself, bright with the colors of redemption, grace and renewal.
Jesus loves you. Happy Easter! By Joyce Meyer

On 21 August 1936, football reporter and author J.A.H. Catton died at the age of 76. He was widely regarded as the greatest sports writer of his day and is considered the father of modern football journalism.
He got his start as a reporter in 1875 when he went to work for the Preston Herald and began covering local side Preston North End. In 1886, he began writing for The Athletic News, a weekly sports journal based in Manchester. He wrote under a pseudonym, first using "Ubique," and then "Tityrus." He later became the editor and helped drive circulation up to 50,000 by 1891, then to 100,000 by 1893 and 170,000 by 1919.
In 1926, Catton published a book, The Story of Association Football, which further helped publicize the increasingly-popular sport.
By the time of his death in 1936, newspapers in Britain devoted substantial coverage to football, due in significant part to his efforts.


Methodist Children’s Home School (MCHS) students visited classrooms of Hewitt Elementary to share Christmas stories from Spanish books. The students were from Ms. Rojas’ Spanish 1 and 2 classes.
On Dec. 16 and 17, the MCHS students read to children in pre-K through second grade from the classrooms of Ms. Faith Foster (pre-K), Ms. Jessica Lopez (Kindergarten), Mr. Frederick Herrera (first grade) and Ms. Irene Martinez (second grade). Ms. Foster’s class created an alphabet book in English that they also shared with their visitors. MCHS student Beyonce accompanied her book, La Pinata, by singing “Feliz Navidad” to the class.
As part of the project, MCHS provided the four classes with a set of English books from Scholastic for their classroom libraries.
“The purpose of this partnership was for our students to practice reading in Spanish through Christmas themed books,” Ms. Rojas said. “The partnership was beneficial for both groups because the Pre-K students were also able to practice speaking English through their alphabet books.”
The schools plan to carry on the partnership through next semester.


My new book is out!
I am very excited to let you know that my book 'Azara and the Unicorns' is finally finished and now available on Amazon as an ebook and paperback. I am looking into having some hardback books printed which will be a special, signed edition available directly from me.
The book is beautifully illustrated by Janett Bonnet.
It is suitable for age 6yrs – 10yrs and is an enchanting story of magical fairies, Mother Earth, Unicorns and of course, Azara who has her very own guardian angel, Angelina. The unfolding story shows children the importance of looking after our beautiful world and how we should be kind to all nature and loving to one another other.
Do you believe? Believe in what? In magical things of course! Well, Azara does, and she has a secret.
It is her 8th birthday party. All her friends arrive, and each give her a birthday present. She excitedly opens them, but as she opens the last present, she has tears in her eyes. The room is silent. Whatever is the matter? Azara decides to tell her friends the sad story of the unicorns and why they disappeared. In the glade at the bottom of her garden, Mother Earth and her fairy helpers ask Azara and her birthday friends, to promise to help them make the world a happier place once more. They all agreed, but Azara wondered how on earth they were going to do this. Her elder sister, Elisabeth, is always telling her how silly she is, and there are no such things as fairies, because she can't see them. Will they keep their promise? Will Elisabeth ever be able to see the fairies and will the unicorns return?

One of my four year old son's absolute favorite things to do right now is to find hidden pictures in his "Look and Find" books. He especially loves the new Iron Man, Avengers, and Spiderman Look and Find books that Santa brought him for Christmas. We actually have a special Mommy/Son time to look for hidden pictures after story time and sister's bedtime each night. My son is really getting quite good at finding pictures and can sometimes spot an object faster than his mama. I love this time of the day, just a little one-on-one quite time with my boy.
Recently I found a neat book on one of our trips to the public library. I grabbed it on a whim from one of the top shelf displays. The book was called Alphabet City by Stephen T. Johnson. The book doesn't have any text, but is compiled of a series of paintings of uppercase alphabet letters found in a city. My son and I really enjoyed flipping through this book and trying to figure out where the letter was on each page. It was also great because my son could practice tracing the letter with his finger to show me that he had in fact found where the letter was.
After reading the book, I thought, wouldn't it be interesting to combine one of my son's favorite activities with seeing what letters we could find around our house? It can be a bit tricky for kiddos to find their own letters around the house at first, so I went around snapping pictures with my iPhone of some letters that I found. Later I showed my son the pictures I took and asked him what letters were in the pictures. He correctly identified each one with ease. Here are a few examples that I found. I found an I under a bench,
an X on the back of our kitchen chairs,
and an O on the top of the paper towel dispenser.
Now we are in the midst of a household hidden letter mission. It's my hope that after seeing a few of my examples, my son will start to find some of his own. I'll keep you posted on how that goes. What letters can you find around your house?

The case provides an example of an individual who meets harsh criticism, personal attacks, and broad resistance despite clear evidence that what he is proposing is right and could save the lives of thousands of human beings. The case recounts the story of Dr. Ignaz Philip Semmelweis, a pioneer in medical antiseptic procedures who is today known as “the savior of mothers.” In 1847, Semmelweis discovered that the practice of hand disinfection in obstetrical clinics can effectively eliminate the outbreak of puerperal fever (“childbed fever”), a condition that killed up to 30 percent of mothers and babies in maternity clinics at the time of the case. The relatively short case – which is designed to be handed out during class – is divided into three parts. Part A describes the situation at Vienna General Hospital in 1846, when Semmelweis is assigned to head one of the two maternity clinics. Much of this part is dedicated to describing the natural experiment that Semmelweis encountered when learning that the two clinics had vastly different mortality rates. Part B lists the many hypotheses that Semmelweis had formulated and refuted, reports on his discovery that the contamination of women by doctors performing anatomical dissections of corpses is causing puerperal fever, and reveals his findings that it can be easily and effectively treated through hand disinfection. Part C provides an account of the resistance he faced from the medical establishment, despite the overwhelming evidence that Semmelweis had collected in support of his findings.
The case has the potential to be an eye-opening experience, as it describes a situation in which the protagonist of change is unable to convince the relevant community, despite having clear evidence: Semmelweis can prove that he is right, but instead of receiving recognition and gratitude and having his recommendations adopted, he meets resistance, personal attack, and ridicule. This is an important lesson for students, who often believe that change can effectively be brought to groups, organizations, and societies when there is clear evidence that proves the integrity of a new proposition.

Olga Zatsepina, President of the Russian American Cultural Heritage Centre, has informed RIA Novosti that the Russian Documentary Film Festival, which will present renowned films from the past 15 years, opens in New York on Friday evening.
The festival is supported and organized by the New Journal (New York), the Russkoye Zarubezhje library foundation (Moscow) and the Russian Cultural Fund.
The festival will open with a showing of Vladimir Zworykin. Russkiy Podarok Amerike (Vladimir Zworykin. Russian Gift to America) at the Tribeca Manhattan Theater. Zworykin, a pioneer of television technology who was born during a time of tragic conflicts in the 20th century and went on to literally destroy the rules of space that had been in effect from time immemorial, is the focus of this film directed by Irina Golubeva, written by Irina Semashko and shot by cinematographer Vitaly Peresypkin.
Vladimir Zworykin. Russkiy Podarok Amerike was produced several years ago for VGTRK (the All-Russia State Television and Radio Company) at the Russky Put’(Russian Way) movie studio. Incidentally, the film premiered in New York, where Zworykin spent his adult life.
Life is Not Easy, a film by Alexey Shishov and Yelena Yakovich, is dedicated to Sergey Dovlatov, an outstanding writer and publisher of the New American emigrant newspaper. During his twelve years in emigration, Dovlatov published twelve books. In Russia, he was known for samizdat (the clandestine copying and distribution of government-suppressed literature or other media in Soviet-bloc countries) and his programme on the Svoboda radio station. After his death, critics wrote that “he transformed his whole life into short story plots. It is absolutely impossible to separate what is true from what is fiction.”
New York audiences will also see Proyavlennoe Vremya (Developed Time), a documentary in the Russians without Russia cycle, directed by Tatiana Karpova and written by Ludmila Demina and Valery Demin. The film’s protagonist Alexey Meltev is a policeman from San Francisco with a Ph.D. in Philology who goes to Moscow to share his experience in the U.S. war on drugs. He brings with him a unique film archive belonging to his father Yury Meltev, who is known for chronicling the Russian Diaspora. Thanks to the Meltevs, the film features a number of cultural icons in exile: the writers Ivan Bunin, Boris Zaitsev, Alexei Remizov and Nadezhda Teffi, the artist Alexandre Benois and the ballet choreographer Serge Lifar. The family documentary film also depicts the lives of the Meltevs – their tragic exodus from Russia, wanderings in Europe, and the romantic love story between the deaf cameraman and his classmate from the Sofia Gymnasium.
The festival will present two piercing documentary films about the Holocaust tragedy during World War II: The World After Auschwitz by Moshe Viatcheslav Kantor, Alexey Shishov and Yelena Yakovich and Brest Ghetto by Yelena Yakovich and Ilia Altman. Brest Ghetto was filmed in 1995 in memory of Brest’s 30,000 Jews, of whom only 19 survived.
The film Varlam Shalamov: A Few of My Lives by Alexandra Sviridova, based on Shalamov’s Kolyma Tales will be also shown at the festival. It is worthy of note that this film by Sviridova, who now lives in New York, was banned in the USSR after its first showing in 1990.

it is found that the user is working with some iteration of Python 2, the wrapper

Saving The Planet Without Costing The Earth
By Donnachadh McCarthy
£12.00 plus P&P
"No.1 Environmental Bestseller"
Amazon April 2006
Featured as an Easy Self-
with Dick Strawbridge, spring 2006.
In "Saving the Planet Without Costing the Earth -
He relates his own experiences in making his lifestyle more planet-
At the end of each chapter he lists simple practical steps that you can take in your
own life. He also provides a really easy do-
He concludes the book with a fascinating description of how he moved from being a classical ballet dancer to being a passionate environmentalist through an unplanned trip into the heart of the Amazon Forest, where he spent time with the Yanomami Indians.
Over 70% of the over 500 suggestions will either cost you nothing or will actually save you money. As Donnachadh says: "Saving the planet does not have to cost the earth".

His home is also the first home in London to receive planning permission to install a grid connected domestic windmill and over 75% of his water needs are supplied by a rain harvester on his roof.

The Medieval Studies Program at Georgetown University offers an interdisciplinary undergraduate minor and major focused on the period from roughly the fall of Rome (5th century A.D.) to the year 1500. The Program's faculty and courses are drawn from 16 different disciplines within the University, with predominant emphasis on the interrelations among art, history, philosophy, and literature. Though the focus of the course offerings is predominantly on the Western Middle Ages, there is increasing representation in comparable periods in non-Western cultures.
Georgetown's location offers students a rich field of opportunity for exploration of medieval art, music, and literature beyond the University: at the National Gallery of Art, the Freer and Sackler Galleries of Asian art, the Library of Congress exhibits, the Folger Shakespeare Library, Baltimore's Walters Art Gallery, Dumbarton Oaks, and, within reach, the major museums and collections of New York, especially the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Cloisters, and the Pierpont Morgan Library.
The students in the program sometimes attend academic conferences on the Middle Ages as far away as New York and Boston; they serve as indispensable assistants at the medieval conferences that the program has sponsored at Georgetown; and they organize an annual Medieval Banquet for over 100 participants, with dishes prepared from authentic medieval recipes, and with medieval entertainments.
The Medieval Studies Program is the sponsor of the first and still one of the best humanities Internet gateways, the Labyrinth, which organizes links to material of use and interest to students and researchers of the Middle Ages.
From 2004 to 2008, the Medieval Studies Program hosted the Annual Conference of the Charles Homer Haskins Society for Viking, Anglo-Saxon, Anglo-Norman and Angevin History.

A lot has been said and written about Aja Raden’s book. It became a best-seller of Amazon.com and New York Times. Madonna and David Duchovny thanked the author for the fascinating journey into the world of jewelry. But experts and historians scolded her for distortion of facts and her own interpretation of events.
The book’s strong points
Working on the project, Raden did a really great job. She raised a huge layer of history. But the result of it should not be taken as ultimate truth. Was the diamond necklace really the cause of the Great French Revolution? And whether the warlike mood of Elizabeth I in relation to Spain was dictated by the desire of the English queen to take possession of “La Paregrina” pearl? Such statements are nothing more than the author’s point of view. But, by the way, it is very curious and has every right to exist.
The book’s weak spots
The biggest part of the book is devoted to several historical events, the supposed cause of which was jewelry. But precious pieces themselves are not the main characters of the narration. There are a lot of inconsistencies with real actions, both historical and geologically-gemological ones. Sometimes the author is too straightforward, and sometimes she bends the stick when “digging for dirt”.
The final conclusion after reading
Charisma, ease of presentation and disclosure of some little-known facts (for example, that the first diamond engagement ring was intended not for the bride, Mary of Burgundy, but for her father Charles the Bold) rightly rewards the publication with a solid four points out of five.

Today would have been the 108th birthday of Rachel Carson. She was a lover of nature, a writer, an ecologist. Born 1907 and died in 1964, she is best known for her highly influential book Silent Spring. This book, which called the alarm on the use of chemical pesticides and eventually helped get DDT banned, has been touted as the start of the grass-roots movement to protect our environment.
It was a spring without voices. On the mornings that had once throbbed with the down chorus of robins, catbirds, doves, jays and wrens…there was now no sound; only silence lay over the fields and woods and marsh. No witchcraft, no enemy action had silenced the rebirth of new life in this stricken world. The people had done it themselves.
I was first introduced to her during my college Environmental Literature class where I read Lost Woods and later Silent Spring. As I read more of her writing and learned more about her, I immediately felt a connection to her and began to see her as a role model. As a kid, I never looked up to astronauts, baseball players or movie stars, but instead filled the need for a mentor with admiration for Ms. Carson.
What I loved so much about her was that she was an outsider in the scientific community and faced great adversity, but still maintained such passion and dedication to the natural world. She was an ecologist and a naturalist, combing beaches and writing to teach people about the wonder and beauty of the living world. She wasn’t a chemist or a nuclear physicist, the “important” scientists during the atomic age she lived in. As a women, she was often disregarded. When writing Silent Spring, she was routinely attacked by the chemical industry and the government called her an alarmist. She was called a “bird and bunny lover, a woman who kept cats and was therefore clearly suspect. She was a spinster who was simply overwrought. Simply, she was a women out of control”. Yet she persevered on, courageously speaking out and taking action to remind us that we are all connected to the ecosystem.
While she lived decades before me, I feel we had lots in common. We both grew up without affluence, and spent childhood observing nature- her in Pennsylvania and the shoreline of New England, me the redwoods and beaches of California’s central coast. From an early age, she loved to read and write, just as I do. But she also possessed characteristics that I admire and wish I possessed, yet struggle with. She never gave up and wasn’t afraid of trying. She was one of only 2 women to work for the Bureau of Fisheries (now the US Fish & Wildlife Service) in the late 1930’s, showing that women are equally smart and important in the scientific field. She continued to write even though she feared she wouldn’t be taken serious because of her sex, and she became known as a trusted voice. When she sensed something was wrong, she researched and wrote and deliberately challenged the popular thought that chemicals in our environment were safe. She questioned the right of the government to expose the public to such substances, and called that such arrogance would only end in the destruction of the living world.
While writing Silent Spring, Ms. Carson was dying of cancer. Yet despite this hardship, she did not give up, and published the book in 1962. The public’s uproar after its release caught the attention of the president and investigations were launched to test the validity of her claims. Communities organized against the use of the chemicals and pesticides. Legislation was passed. Earth Day and the EPA was established. But sadly, she was not around to see the difference she made, as she passed away shortly after the book’s publication. Yet she left behind a wonderful gift, and compels us all to reevaluate our relationship with the natural world.
Happy Birthday, to Rachel. I know I’m not alone in those who admire and honor her. Think of how different our world would be today if there were more people who had the strength that she did, or what our world would be like if there were those who didn’t.

The Psychology of Money: Timeless Lessons on Wealth, Greed, and Happiness
By : Morgan Housel
Doing well with money isn't necessarily about what you know. It's about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people. Money--investing, personal finance, and business decisions--is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don't make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life's most important topics.

Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World
By : David Epstein
What's the most effective path to success in any domain? It's not what you think. Plenty of experts argue that anyone who wants to develop a skill, play an instrument, or lead their field should start early, focus intensely, and rack up as many hours of deliberate practice as possible. If you dabble or delay, you'll never catch up to the people who got a head start. But a closer look at research on the world's top performers, from professional athletes to Nobel laureates, shows that early specialization is the exception, not the rule.David Epstein examined the world's most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors, forecasters and scientists. He discovered that in most fields--especially those that are complex and unpredictable--generalists, not specialists, are primed to excel. Generalists often find their path late, and they juggle many interests rather than focusing on one. They're also more creative, more agile, and able to make connections their more specialized
By : George Orwell
Librarian's note: There is an Alternate Cover Edition for this edition of this book here.A farm is taken over by its overworked, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and stirring slogans, they set out to create a paradise of progress, justice, and equality. Thus the stage is set for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned ?a razor-edged fairy tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible. When Animal Farm was first published, Stalinist Russia was seen as its target. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, under whatever banner, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell?s masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh.

‘Éditions Volumiques’ blurs the boundaries between books, moving images and video games
For quite some time, publishing companies thought they were safe from the digital tidal wave that ruined the music industry and is now threatening Hollywood studios. Our fondness, as readers, for the printed format and the reputation of old, well-established publishers was supposed to protect writers and those who work hard to publish them. Yet, finding a sustainable and profitable economic model that incorporates both print and digital content is already a rising concern for newspaper and magazine publishers, who are experimenting with various models to promote their online editorial content (free, half-free, “freemium,” coupled subscriptions). Especially with the growing momentum of digital tablets and various “ebooks” (such as Amazon’s Kindle), many publishers feel threatened by the technological tools that might overthrow them.
In order to postpone the day when it will be possible to download bootlegged digital versions of books on Mediafire, some publishing companies have organized and launched legal digital ebook catalogues in partnership with legit online booksellers. Other firms are trying to invent a “happy medium,” a fearless, fruitful, and more innovative niche, between printed books and digital tools, forging an alliance that transcends commercialization strategies, changing the content of the books themselves.
French publisher Éditions Volumiques explores the possible ways of tying multiple formats together by inventing hybrid formats that combine electronic or digital tech and good old paper, glue and ink. In this regard, their augmented books look like enhanced modern versions of those large children’s books with folded pages, carved animals, 3D calligraphies and the like. But their ambition exceeds the mere pleasure of creating beautiful objects, as they describe themselves as a “publishing house focusing on the paper book as a new computer platform, as well as a research lab on book, (computational) paper, reading and their relation to new technologies.” The key issue here is interactivity as well as their technique, which blurs the boundaries between books, moving images and video games.

DNA CHANCE FORMATION - IMPOSSIBLE MATHEMATICALLY
Vance Ferrel, B.A., M.A., has written an excellent book based on extensive research, called, "The Evolution Handbook,"
http://evolutionfacts.com/Handbook%20TOC.htm. Part of the description for this book describes it as this:
- "Thousands of scientific facts, disproving every basic area of evolutionary theory. A fascinating book that is easy to read. Full of facts most people are not aware of. Written so key points quickly jump out at you. 1,350 scientific quotations or references."
On Mr. Ferrel's website, http://evolutionfacts.com, you will find loads of information and quotes within the scientific evolutionary fields dispelling evolution.
Below are a couple of links to some of his sections about DNA. Also from his website, I've included the 3rd link below from www.pathlights.com.
And incidentally, one of my favorite quotes on DNA is from a book, "Fearfully and Wonderfully Made," by the late Dr. Paul Brand and Philip Yancey. "The DNA is so narrow and compacted that if all the genes in all my body's cells were put together, they would fit into an ice cube. Yet if the DNA were unwound and joined together end to end, the strand could stretch from the earth to the sun and back more than 400 times."
