Abigael Ajuma graduated from Episcopal High School in 2017.
Abigael Ajuma comes from Katelenyang, a village in western, Kenya. Through Rev. Gideon Pollach, Zach Drennen, Mr. and Mrs. Doyle and Mr. and Mrs. Douglas, she was introduced to Episcopal High School. She won a full scholarship. On August 2, 2013, Abigael made the multi-thousand-mile journey to EHS. By the end of her high school career, she was a monitor, a maroon mentor, a member of the service council, a librarian’s assistant, a captain for both girls varsity cross country and track and field, and a high list student. Additionally, she was honored with the Quentin Prize for Conduct, Scholarship and Character and an award for diligence in the study of mathematics.
Abigael’s journey to higher education was an especially difficult one. Despite her excellence in academics and extra-curricular activities, Abigael was only accepted to 4 out of the 30 colleges and universities she applied to. Unfortunately, none of these four institutions offered her a full scholarship she needed to attend. The uncertainty of Abigael’s future constantly worried her guardians and parents back in Kenya. Fortunately through an EHS parent, Abigael was connected with St. Lawrence University. She applied and was accepted. Through scholarships and Go-Fund Me contributions, Abigael was able to attend SLU. There, she excelled!
-As a sophomore, she studied abroad at East China Normal University in Shanghai, China.
-She worked at Lechuang Youth Social Service Center in Hangzhou, China (summer, 2019).
-Held at least two on-campus employments to cater to her five siblings’ education and financially support her subsistence- farming parents.
-A co-president to Project PengYou club on campus.
-Graduated with a double major in government and global studies and a minor in Chinese studies.
-Presented her global studies honors thesis titled A Historical Analysis of How Capital Via Philanthropy Undermines Kenya’s State Power at the Mid-Atlantic Undergraduate Social Research Conference.
-Inducted to the Pi Sigma Alpha honor society of political science.
- A fellow for the Tedra Cobb for Congress campaign.
Next, Ms. Ajuma secured a summer internship in Foreign Policy at the revered Brookings Institute. She’s ecstatic to learn about the security issues facing her continent and the effectiveness of proposed solutions. Most important to her, though is the opportunity to elevate the voices of the marginalized citizens of the global south and particularly, Africans. With her OPT card (1 year authorization to work in the US post-grad), she hopes to find a more permanent position in international relations and global development. Later, she will pursue masters in international relations and international law.
As a young African woman in a foreign country, it is with no doubt that Abigael’s transition to and experience at EHS was a challenging one. Fighting to fit in, Abigael struggled with severe homesickness, loneliness and confusion, but you would never know given her big smile and jovial personality. Reflecting on her time at EHS, Abigael promises to be a support system to future African students. She remains grateful to the institution for the opportunity that has and continues to open doors she would never have imagined entering ten years ago.

Business Leaders: Thomas Edison
American inventor Thomas Alva Edison was born in Milan, Ohio in 1847. As one of the most influential inventors in the world, Edison's creations have become the basis for much of the technology that exists in modern society. His passion for creating helped to spread the use of electricity and lighting at a time when electrical lighting was a rarity. From his youth to the time of his death in 1931, Edison had obtained 1,093 patents for his inventions. Of those, his contributions to electricity made up roughly 356 of these patents.
His Early Years
Thomas was the youngest child born to his middle class parents, Samuel and Nancy Edison. Although his parents had seven children, three of them had passed away before Thomas' birth. Edison himself was a sickly child growing up, even fighting a case of Scarlet Fever. He had three living siblings, two brothers and a sister.
In 1854, Samuel Edison moved his family to Port Huron, Michigan, where he got a job as a lumber worker. While attending school in Port Huron, Edison's teacher found his extremely curious nature and active behavior unacceptable. The teacher claimed that Edison was “addled” or simple-minded. This comment led Thomas' mother to remove him from school. Believing that her son was highly intelligent, Nancy Edison began home schooling him instead.
This departure from school eventually led 12 year old Edison to work at the Grand Trunk Railroad to Denver in 1859, where he sold newspapers and eventually began printing his own newspaper from the baggage car that also doubled as his laboratory. It was during this time that Edison lost most of his hearing. There are a number of different stories about the actual cause of his hearing loss. Some believe that it occurred after being hit in the ear by a conductor following an accidental fire in the baggage car. Others believe it stemmed from his battle with scarlet fever. Despite the loss of his hearing, Thomas learned how to use the railroad telegraph. This new skill found him working telegraph jobs around the country from 1863 to 1869. By 1869 his love of invention led him to quit his most recent job so that he could devote time to his innovations.
Edison started Pope, Edison and Co. in October of 1869. That year he had his first patented invention, which was an electric voting machine. Unfortunately, his invention was not well received by politicians at the time. One year later he merged his company with Gold and Stock Telegraph Co. and started another company to manufacture stock printers, called the Newark Telegraph Works. During this time he made and patented many improvements to telegraphs and even created an electric pen in 1875. The electric pen had declining success until 1880 when others produced electric pens that did not require a battery as Edison's invention did.
In 1877, as the result of experimentation with the telephone and telegraph, Thomas Edison invented the phonograph. This led to the establishment of the Edison Speaking Phonograph Company in 1878. The creation of the device also earned him the nickname “The Wizard of Menlo Park.” Edison eventually set aside his work on the phonograph in favor of other inventions for nearly 10 years. His interest in the device returned in 1887 after others made improvements to the machine. This led Edison to make his own improvements to the device.
Thomas Edison's most famous inventions revolved around electricity. He is known as the creator of the incandescent light bulb and bringing electric light to the streets and homes. In 1879, after experimenting with numerous types of lighting elements called filaments at his Menlo Park lab, he developed a lamp that used a carbon conducting element which received an electric current to produce light inside of a globe-shaped glass container. The resulting light bulb proved to be stable, lasting over 13 hours. A few months after he received a patent for this invention, he found other materials that would allow a bulb to last for hundreds of hours. While he did not invent the world's first light bulb, he did invent the incandescent type; this technology was the first to make incandescent light bulbs useful in homes. Eventually, it also led to his invention of the electric chandelier. He also invented a new type of generator which, while later proven to be inefficient, was shown at the Paris Electrical Exposition of 1881 and hailed at the time as a technological wonder. Edison then created the world's first electric power station for public use in London, England in 1882. In the same year, he established a power station on Manhattan's Pearl Street to generate electricity for New York street lights and homes. Only five years later there were more than a hundred stations in America alone, which Edison owned and operated.
In 1888, Edison began working on a motion picture device that would “do for the eye what the phonograph does for the ear.” In 1891, he applied for patents for the kinetograph and the kinetoscope. The kinetograph was the first motion picture camera and the kinetoscope was a small box like device that allowed a single person to view movies when looking through it. The kinetoscope eventually evolved into the kinetoscope projector, which allowed many people to view movies at one time. Later, he developed a kinetophone to synchronize sound with film, but had little success. By 1918, the growing film industry no longer held interest for Edison and he removed himself from the motion picture industry.
Edison significantly slowed his creation of inventions and in 1911, he reorganized his many company's under a single organization called Thomas A. Edison, Inc. When the United States faced the threat of World War I, Edison became the head of the Naval Consulting Board in 1915. During this time, he performed research for the navy, much of which involved submarine detection. Throughout the 1920s, Edison's health began to decline. Despite his illness, he began working on an alternative rubber source. He was continuing this research when he went into a coma on October 14, 1931. Four days later, Edison passed away. On October 21 of that year, President Hoover asked that all electric lights around the United States dim for one minute in honor of Edison and him many achievements and advancements in electricity.

Robert Mapplethorpe - Waves, 1980
Jared Leto + 20 years of acting
These are five of the seven pictures Dorothea Lange took of Florence Thompson in Nipomo, Calif. in February, 1936. Thompson was a pea-picker and mother of seven children. Ever since Lange took her iconic photograph of Thompson — shown above in the best-known form, and at bottom in un-modified form (note the thumb in the lower right) — she’s been known as the Migrant Mother. These are five of the seven known Lange photographs of Thompson. Each is in the collection of the Library of Congress.
Tonight most PBS stations will premiere an "American Masters" documentary on the life and work of Dorothea Lange. Titled "Dorothea Lange: Grab a Hunk of Lightning," the film looks at Lange’s life from her upbringing outside New York City, to her emergence as a major American photographer. Lange is best-known for her work chronicling the Dust Bowl era, but her oeuvre includes much more, including pictures of Depression-era labor strife, the internment of Japanese-Americans and early environmentalist documentary photography. Such was Lange’s stature that just after she died in 1966 the Museum of Modern Art devoted just its sixth retrospective of a photographer’s career to her work.
Taylor was the lead guest on last week’s Modern Art Notes Podcast. She and host Tyler Green discussed the documentary and Lange’s life and work.

Works of Sri Vidyaranya
Sri Vidyaranya’s literary contributions comprise works on Vyakarana, Mimamsa, Smriti, Purana, astronomy/astrology, Mantra Sastra, music, Darsana and Advaita Vedanta. The more important of them are Jaiminiya Nyayamala, Parasara-smriti Vyakhyana, Smriti Sangraha, Vyavahara-Madhava, Sri Vidyatirtha-Dipika, Vivaranaprameya Sangraha, Panchadasi, Jivanmukti Viveka, Drig Drisya Viveka, Aparokshanubhuti-Tika, and six Upanishad-Dipikas.
Of these, Panchadasi is an important work in Advaita Vedanta, so called because of its division into fifteen chapters, dealing with topics of metaphysical and spiritual importance. In the Brhadaranyavartikasara, Sri Vidyaranya summarises Sri Sureshwaracharya’s work. Dipikas on Aitareya and Taittiriya Upanishads and Sri Shankara’s summary of the twelve principal Upanishads, are also attributed to Sri Vidyaranya.
Madhaviya Shankara Vijaya is the work of Sri Vidyaranya. Because of its high poetic merit and objectivity, it is considered the best for recitation during Shankara Jayanti.
Drgdrsyaviveka is considered a combined work of Sri Vidyaranya and His predecessor, Sri Bharati Krishna Tirtha. The works of the two Jagadgurus are among the greatest treatises in post-Shankara Advaita literature and both of them occupy a unique place in the history of religion.


hax11 is a hackbrary to Hook and Augment X11 protocol calls.
I initially created hax11 to work around poor MST support in Linux GPU drivers; however, its use outgrew its initial purpose. hax11 was initially based on kislotniq’s simple dell4khack library, however it no longer shares any code with its ancestor, and now uses a different approach (intercepting the X11 socket connection instead of library calls).
hax11 attempts to fix game and full-screen application issues on Linux, such as:
- starting on the wrong monitor
- spanning too many monitors
- spanning one half of a tiled (MST) monitor (such as some 4K/5K/8K monitors)
- refusing to allow selecting a desired resolution
It can also work around some common annoyances:
- exclusively grabbing the mouse or keyboard
- forcefully pausing the game when the window loses focus
- not restricting the mouse cursor to its window/monitor
- messing with the X PRIMARY selection

Under normal circumstances, illustrations from an elementary school book that the lieutenant governor displayed at a press conference would be considered fair game for a news publication. However, not in this case.
Rather than using the illustrations themselves, the Rhino is providing a link to those illustrations with a warning that this link is to graphic illustrations of sex acts that many may not consider appropriate. However, they are from a book currently being used in in North Carolina elementary schools. Here is the link: https://ibb.co/qRKqd9j
The News & Observer has confirmed Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson’s statement that the illustrations are from a book that is available in some public school libraries in the state.
This is what Robinson called “filth” and has stated repeatedly that he does not believe it is appropriate for elementary school children, whether it is in the library or used in the classroom.
Because Robinson made strong statements against this type of graphic sexual material being used in North Carolina’s public elementary schools to teach children about transgenderism and homosexuality, he is being viciously attacked by the left.
At the press conference, Robinson was asked if the problem he had with the illustrations was that they depicted homosexual sex acts and Robinson pointed to the illustration and said, “I’m talking about things of this nature, whether it be heterosexual or homosexual doesn’t matter.”
He added, “Any type of highly sexual material of this nature does not need to be spread in the schools.”
Robinson, who is North Carolina’s first black lieutenant governor, also displayed several of the emails that he and his office have received regarding this latest controversy (some of which are shown below).

State after writing a variety of henrietta lacks was an example on pinterest, but when i saw rebecca skloot, questions.
Most people have never heard of Henrietta Lacks.
Yet, for more than 60 years, her cells have been used to help save countless lives. Henrietta Lacks is the woman behind the cells that revolutionized the medical field — helping develop the polio vaccine, cloning and numerous cancer treatments.
Last week, the Rabin Martin Book Club discussed the impact of HeLa cells and the ethical issues related to informed consent in medical practice. As a striking contrast to the immeasurable good made possible through research on HeLa cells, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks offers a poignant depiction of the deep injustices she and her family experienced.
The story of Henrietta Lacks is a prime example of the ethical tradeoffs the scientific community grapples with in pursuit of the common good, but it also signaled a turning point.
It revealed a tangible opportunity for the public to voice concerns and demand appropriate measures be taken to learn from past mistakes.
The rights and privacy of the Lacks family were formally addressed after German researchers published the full genome sequence of a HeLa cell line which reveals all genetic predispositions on a public database, without consulting the family. While their actions were not illegal, the controversy resulting from this breach of privacy prompted long overdue action on behalf of the National Institutes of Health NIH.
For the first time, it was decided that before any NIH-funded research on HeLa cells can be published, it needs to be approved by a board that includes two Lacks family members.The race issues in The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks connects to Thomas Jeffersons, Notes on the State of Virginia, because throughout the reading, Jefferson clearly has racist views towards African American and Henrietta Lacks can relate to the racism.
What Life Lessons Can Be Learned From The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot? There are many lessons to be learned from the biography Immortal life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca plombier-nemours.com offers advice on scientific research, family dynamics, law, bioethics, among others.

It revealed a tangible opportunity for the public to voice concerns and demand appropriate measures be . V. Conclusion In conclusion, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks emphasises that although the HeLa cells play a very important role in advancing major technology, the scientists should have informed the Lacks family that the cells were being used.


After being on a bit of a reading rampage this weekend, I realised it made no sense to do two separate posts about the two books I finished in the past two days (so many twos!). So after thinking of the ways I could roll the reviews into one, I actually started to question the way I present book reviews.
And alas, an idea struck me. I always hesitate with book reviews anyway (so dubious to give too much away, whilst keeping the main elements of the plot evident), so have decided to start formatting them slightly differently.
I may decide a few weeks down the line that actually this sucks, but for now let’s give it a go.
The Book Thief By Markus Zusak
Perfect for: The reader that is enchanted by the written word and loves a good cry
If you liked: The Boy in the Striped pyjamas and anything by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, this is the one for you
I’ve been meaning to read this book for ages; in fact, when I was a lot younger I did give it a go… I just couldn’t get in to it. But picking it up now took me to another world, full of innocence, history and magical passion.
The story follows Liesel, a girl from Nazi Germany, and her experiences throughout the war. With unexpected twists and surprising additions to the cast, the historical context of the tale draws you in from the word go.
Narrated by death, you would expect this to be a dark novel; you may think that is where we draw the similarities with Zafon. But no, it is deeply touching and intensely moving. The similarities come from the role of words and books for the characters, and their power to transform lives. A huge plus for the avid book lovers out there.
Full of the most endearing and heart-rendering characters I have ever found in literature, The Book Thief is quite easily one of the most delightful books I have ever had the pleasure to read. From start to finish, the words spun like gold off of the page.
Final thought: Read the book before you see the film! I am incredibly nervous about whether the film will capture the essence of the story. Only time will tell!
Before I go to Sleep by SJ Watson
Rating: 3.5 *
Perfect for: The thrill seeker
If you liked: Gone Girl then you will absolutely adore this.
Christine is a 47 year old woman. Every day, she wakes up and has no idea where or who she is. No, it’s not a case of wine-head (guffaw guffaw); Christine suffers from anterograde amnesia.
An interesting subject even without the twist. This psychological thriller delves into the idea of your history being re-written, and who we can really trust.
Reminiscent of Gone Girl (in the way that I nearly screamed when the twist unveiled itself), it’s a real page turner. Incredibly clever and intricate in its plot, I finished this in a day. It was that gripping, there was no way I could put it down.
The structure of the book is integral to the pace and mystery surrounding the story. It is what makes it such a spine-tingling read. For me, it actually topped Gone Girl; a stunning debut novel for SJ Watson.
Final thought: This, I believe, is going to make a corker of a film. If they do it right, it’s going to be something spectacular.

Projective GeometryEric Bainville - Oct 2007
In these pages, I present an introduction to projective geometry, from the point of view of the 3D graphics programmer. 3D projective geometry is the underlying model of many 3D graphics libraries, such as OpenGL or DirectX, because it provides an unified way of handling all Euclidean, affine, and projective transformations, including the perspective projection. It also handles well the case of objects at infinity.
The projective space can be defined in various ways. The book of J.G. Semple and G. T. Kneebone (Algebraic Projective Geometry, Oxford Classic Texts) provides a definition based on coordinates. The book of H. S. M. Coxeter (Projective Geometry, Springer) provides an axiomatic definition, and makes the link to coordinates only at the end of the book. These two approaches define the same projective space. I recommend taking the time to read these books.
For the 3D programmer, the coordinates based approach is obviously the one to use, and it will be presented in the following chapters. The reader is supposed to have a basic knowledge of linear algebra. I won't give formal proofs of the various properties exposed here. What I describe here is the real projective space of dimension 3.

The most recent beta features of Plex offer a modern answer to one of the most common modern problem: having to trawl through Disney Plus, Netflix, HBO Max, and other streaming services to find something to watch. The firm unveiled a new “Discover” tool that collects and suggests material from several streaming services, as well as a universal watch list that compiles everything you want to watch in one location.
The Discover screen functions similarly to the homepages of most streaming services, providing suggestions on what to watch next, but with the added capability of displaying material from many libraries. It should not, however, overload you with options that you do not have access to. There is a feature that allows you to choose only the streaming services you are subscribed to. Plex has been attempting for several years to establish itself as a legitimate one-stop-shop for streaming.
They have also introduced a new “watch from these locations” tool, which is useful if you already know what to watch but aren’t sure where to look for it. It adds a A section was added to the movie and TV program information page that displays which streaming providers offer that material. Plex may even direct you to the streaming service from the website in some versions of the software (which is accessible on devices such as the Apple TV, Roku, Fire Stick, smart TVs, PlayStation, and so on).
The number of streaming providers Plex supports with these capabilities is extensive. It contains all of the major names, such as HBO Max, Netflix, Disney Plus, Hulu, Amazon Prime, and Peacock, as well as about 150 others (such as Martha Stewart TV). With a few exceptions, if you can legitimately stream what you’re viewing someplace on the internet, Plex can inform you about it. You may also instruct it to search your Plex libraries for self-hosted videos or other files.
According to Plex’s help page, not all platforms enable forwarding the user to the associated streaming app. According to Reddit posts, one major platform that can’t handle the linking is Roku.

Linguists postulate that the average person uses "taboo" words eighty to ninety times a day, so why not mix it up a little? This irreverent guide will give you something ill-mannered to say no matter what corner of the globe you're in.


Tonight, the Pep’s homework consisted of him figuring out what words need to be capitalized. There was a section regarding books, stories, poems and songs. One of the books in the list was Charlotte’s Web. Here was the comment the Pep made while capitalizing Charlotte’s and Web.
“Oh yes, this is the one about ‘that’ pig, isn’t it?! I just don’t quite understand what is so special and great about ‘that’ pig!”
And now that I think about it, I wonder if his opinion would change if Charlotte was a ninja pig? Or better yet, what if there was a Charlotte’s Web video game?
Then, she would surely be the coolest pig of all time to an eight year old, wouldn’t she?!


On graphic novels
When we emigrated from South Africa to New Zealand, we decided that we would only bring with us that which could fit into a box. No furniture, big toys or bookshelves. (I just have to say that I had a truly lovely set of bookshelves. Little boxes in mahogany wood, with a ladder!)
I still regret not bringing my awesome bookshelves with me, but the contents of those bookshelves could most definitely fit into boxes, and so I hauled over thirty boxes halfway across the world with me. (About three quarters of the boxes that we packed up to bring with us was books. Mostly mine, since my partner reads e-books on his cellphone.)
Amongst all these books there wasn't a single graphic novel, and whenever my partner - a huge fan of Asterix, or my Dad, who grew up on the German Max and Moritz cartoons, would suggest I try a graphic novel, I scoffed. Pictures are for kids, not big people. I read words.
But last month I read Hildafolk, by Luke Pearson, for my youngest and I was hooked. The illustrations! They said so much more than mere words could! I felt like such a traitor turning my back on words like that, but... they were good!
Then I read Relish, by Lucy Knisley, and I promise, I'll never scoff at the idea of graphic novels again. (Maybe at Anime books though... but who knows, I have yet to try one.)
So if you're looking for something entertaining to read over the holidays, I can highly recommend the following:
- Hildafolk, by Luke Pearson
- Relish, by Lucy Knisley
- Persepolis, by Marjane Satrapi
- Maus, by Art Spiegelman
- Book Yourself Solid, by Michael Port (the illustrated version)
- There Is No Right Way To Meditate, by Yumi Sakugawa (she has others as well.)
My list is still short, because I'm only just discovering this genre, but if you're an avid graphic novel reader, then please share some of your favourites with us in the comments;-)
Your takeaway from this article
Challenge yourself these holidays to read one book from a genre that you never read in. Who knows... a whole new world of reading might open up to you!


IV. The Life and Teachings of Jesus
Three books provided the backbone for Part IV: (1) A Harmony of the Gospels for Historical Study (1904, 1932) by Stevens and Burton, which presents "an analytical synopsis of the four gospels"; (2) Atlas of the Historical Geography of the Holy Land (1915) by George Adam Smith, which contains every city, village, place and other geographical feature mentioned in Part IV; and (3) The Perfect Calendar for Every Year of the Christian Era (1926, 1927) by Henry Fitch, which allows one to find which day of the week any particular date fell on (e.g. that March 16, A.D. 1 was a Wednesday). Two Bible dictionaries—one by Hastings (1909), one by Smith (1870)—were regularly drawn from. Other much-used sources were the Life of Jesus books by Edersheim, Smith, Barton, Bowie, Murry, Wilson, and Fiske & Easton, as well as novels by Norwood and Poling. About thirty-five other books were also used, but in only a few papers at most. Papers 131, 160, 170 are specialized papers in which one source, used in no other paper in Part IV, was the dominant influence.

Getting into college used to be a matter of researching colleges in guidebooks, filling out a few forms, sending in grades and waiting for the acceptance letters to roll in – but those days are long gone. Now, college admissions is big news, big business and often a big disappointment for families who don’t know the score. It’s time to get back to the simple wisdom about higher education.
Not only does Ellen give students and parents info in a fun, no nonsense way, but she speaks from the heart and tells real-life stories that capture the true nature of the experience – some amusing, some ordinary, and some heart-wrenching – to which students and parents can relate. Ellen serves as source that families of college-bound students can depend on to help them recognize simple truths and avoid common pitfalls.
Ellen Richards provides parents and students with the wisdom they need, including: what is happening now in the world of college admissions, what to do as a result, when to do it, and how to know when to stop.


|Born: c.460 BC at Kos, Ancient Greece|
|Died: c.370 BC at Larissa, Ancient Greece|
Hippocrates was an ancient Greek physician who was born around 460 BC on Cos, an Aegean island. Many consider him to be the “father of medicine” because he transformed the path of Greek medicine. He believed that diseases were caused by some type of natural action instead of being caused by the spirits or gods.
His Early Life
Hippocrates was the son of Praxithea and Heracleides. His family’s wealth allowed him to receive a very good education when he was child. After studying nine years of reading, spelling, writing, physical education, poetry, singing, and music, he attended two years of secondary school.
Hippocrates likely studied medicine under his father. He observed not only his father, but also another physician, Herodicos, on how they treated patients. His training may have included trips to the Greek mainland and quite possibly to Libya and Egypt to learn other medical practices.
Hippocrates was given credit for healing many, such as Macedonia’s king, whom he had treated for tuberculosis. His dedication to healing was tested when he fought the plague in Athens for three years from 430-427 BC. The peak of his career occurred during the time of the Peloponnesian War (431-404 BC).
Later, Hippocrates taught medicine to his own sons, Draco and Thessalus. The physician and teacher role blended well when Hippocrates started a school for medicine in Cos around 400 BC. One of the main things that he taught was that it was important to keep a record of the patient’s condition and symptoms.
The Hippocratic Corpus
A body of writing that has been attributed to Hippocrates is the Hippocratic Corpus, a collection of medical books. It contains 70 books and they are considered to be the oldest known books about medicine. Each subject matter was written for a particular reader or student. Some books were written for physicians and some for pharmacists while others were written for the layman.
This ancient Greek doctor recommended diet and physical exercise as remedies or cures for ailments. However, he pointed out that some individuals who could not or would not follow these recommendations would most likely need some type of medicine. His writings also taught that physical handling may cure physical troubles, such as a dislocated shoulder, where the physician could position it back into place.
The Hippocratic Oath
The Hippocratic Oath is a document on medical practice ethics and morals. It was credited to Hippocrates, although new information indicates it could have been authored after he died. This is believed by many to be the most famous document of the Hippocratic Corpus.
Even though the Hippocratic Oath today is not often applied in its original form, it is still the foundation for many other oaths or laws that outline what the good practice and morals of medicine should be. These oaths are commonly taken by today’s medical graduates.
The Death of Hippocrates
Very little is known about the death of Hippocrates apart from different possible years in which he may have died. A variety of sources state it was 377 BC, but others disagree. Regardless, his contribution to the medical world still endures in modern medicine around the world.


Louis Joseph César Ducornet: A Remarkable Foot Painter of the 19th Century
Louis Joseph César Ducornet, born on January 10, 1806, in Lille, France, left an indelible mark on the art world as a painter who defied physical limitations. Known for his exquisite works executed solely with his foot, Ducornet’s life and artistry illuminate a remarkable journey.
Early Life and Challenges
Born to humble parents, Ducornet faced a challenging start on January 10, 1806, in Lille. His life took an unexpected turn as he was born with phocomelia, a condition resulting in shortened or missing limbs. Deprived of both arms and a left leg, Ducornet had only four toes on his right foot. His father, devoted and supportive, carried him during his childhood when walking proved impossible.
Ducornet’s resilience surfaced in his early years. As a child, he discovered an artistic inclination, picking up pieces of charcoal with his toes. His spontaneous sketches exhibited such promise that local recognition followed. Recognizing his potential, the municipality of Lille facilitated his journey to Paris in 1824.
Artistic Pursuits in Paris
In the vibrant art scene of Paris, Ducornet’s talent flourished. Guided by esteemed mentors such as Guillaume Guillon-Lethière, François Louis Joseph Watteau, and François Gérard, he defied physical constraints to pursue his passion. Despite his disability barring him from competing for the Prix de Rome, Ducornet garnered multiple medals at the Salon, a testament to his artistic prowess.
Notably, he painted an impressive eleven-foot-high portrayal of Mary Magdalene at the feet of Jesus after the resurrection. The French government acquired this masterpiece, solidifying Ducornet’s place among respected artists.
Legacy and Later Years
Louis Joseph César Ducornet’s dedication to art continued throughout his life. He passed away in Paris in 1856 at the age of 50, leaving behind a legacy of resilience, talent, and artistic innovation.
Ducornet’s story resonates not only for his remarkable paintings but also for the triumph of creativity over physical challenges.

Louis Joseph César Ducornet’s journey, from a young boy with a birth defect to a celebrated foot painter, exemplifies the power of passion and determination in overcoming adversity. His foot-painted masterpieces, fueled by an unwavering spirit, continue to inspire and captivate art enthusiasts worldwide.


Book Review By Moreen Torpy:
Having watched films starring Hayley Mills, the idea of reading this book was most enticing. Once I began reading, I could not stop. Helen Le Mesurier has written a page-turner book describing her fascination from childhood with Hayley Mills. Through delight at receiving new magazines and photos of Hayley as a child, Helen sets the scene to be crushed when she felt she had to let this collection go. Through life’s ups and downs, Helen weaves the almost-impossible-to-believe story of how she met Hayley and their resulting friendship.
‘Finding Hayley Finding Me’ is a must-read for those who love happily-ever-after stories. And even better – this one is true.
Moreen Torpy, Author of ‘Going Forward, Downsizing, Moving and Settling In’.
Book Review By Carolyn Townson (excerpt from guest blog post ‘A Journey’s End’):
Helen’s story is universal, its plot and the themes are standard issue. It contains the full gamete of human endeavour when viewed in its simplest forms. What makes Helen’s story so wonderfully unique and valuable is that it has the sense of impossibility and improbability and it so clearly demonstrates the heart of human endeavour and the promise of the thing we call hope. Richard Bach captures the essence of Helen’s journey when he says: “You are never given a dream without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however.” And work for it Helen did. Helen’s story is inspirational and it holds the promise for each reader of new territory, new opportunities and new ways of being. Helen’s is not just a story of a young woman who follows her inner-most knowing and dream, this is the story of life itself, the trials and tribulations, the suffering and angst, the intermittent joy and happiness and the fact that we do not have any idea of the grander scheme of things in which we reside. What is mammoth is that this is a further piece of evidence that we co-create our world and reality that we experience.
Helen’s passion for life carries her throughout her years of self-discovery in which her journey to her soul sister, Hayley Mills, was a major backdrop.
Book Review by ‘Gates to My Perception’ blogger Gemma Le Mesurier
There is a new book being released in one week’s time that I am pretty excited about. The title is Finding Hayley Finding Me: My Journey to Actress Hayley Mills. For some people, the name ‘Hayley Mills’ will be quite familiar, for others not so much. In case it helps, Hayley Mills played the original Disney Pollyanna, and starred in the original Disney Parent Trap.
Whether you know about Hayley or not, though, is beside the point. While she is the catalyst for the narrative, and the book certainly is not wanting in interesting details about Hayley and beautiful photos of her that any fan would enjoy, the tale itself is a tale of self-discovery, a tale of personal growth, and of spiritual awakening. In short, a tale that rings true for so many of us.
As you may be able to tell by my comments, I have had the privilege of reading this book already, despite its 27th June release date. That is because I am very close to the author, Helen Le Mesurier, and was honoured to be asked to be the editor of her beautiful book. I have read it numerous times and watched it transform and evolve (much like Helen does in the story itself), and I can honestly say that, with each reading, I have enjoyed it more.
While another memoir, which is currently riding a wave of popularity, Eat Pray Love sparkles with wit, Finding Hayley Finding Me radiates a sense of wonder. We are taken from Helen’s early days living a narrow view of faith, through the soul-expanding lessons she encountered on her journey to becoming friends with Hayley Mills, to what knowing Hayley itself has taught her about spirituality, love, and the value of acknowledging, trusting and embracing who you really are.
Every step of the way synchronicity precedes, and the world blooms for Helen on her journey, which is both physical and spiritual. It truly leaves you wondering at just what the universe is capable of.

Andrew Vietze (that’s Veets) is the award-winning author of more than two dozen books, including his latest, This Wild Land: Two Decades of Adventure as a Park Ranger in the Shadow of Katahdin, a memoir that explores his career as a seasonal ranger in the wildest country in the East. His book Boon Island: A True Story of Mutiny, Shipwreck, and Cannibalism, was a #1 Amazon Bestseller (US History), winner of a Gold at the 2013 Independent Publisher Book Awards in New York, and a 2012 Book of the Year finalist. Boon Island attracted much Hollywood interest and was featured on the Travel Channel at the end of June 2014. Vietze’s previous book Becoming Teddy Roosevelt: How a Maine Guide Inspired America’s 26th President won a silver medal at the IPPYs – the Independent Publisher Book Awards – was honored by the Maine State Legislature, and was a 2010 Foreword Book of the Year Award finalist in the biography category. It also spent weeks on the Maine Sunday Telegram‘s bestseller list and inspired the Lunder New Naturalists program at Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, which used the story of Theodore Roosevelt as an entry point for middle schoolers into the world of conservation. More than 19 schools – and 600 students – participated in the statewide program. His latest book, White Pine: American History and the Tree that Made a Nation was released to much acclaim in 2018.
The former managing editor of Down East: The Magazine of Maine, Vietze has written for a wide variety of magazines and online publications, including Time Out New York, The New York Times’ LifeWire, Crawdaddy!, AMC Outdoors, Popmatters, Hooked on the Outdoors, Explore, Offshore, American Songwriter, Big Sky Journal, MaineBiz, and Maine Times. He’s done work for such varied organizations as NASA, the states of Maine and Texas, Weather.com, several schools and universities, the Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance, and the Natural Resources Council of Maine. Two of his pieces for Down East have won awards for feature writing from the International Regional Magazine Association.
A hardcore fan of Liverpool Football Club, and former singer/guitarist in several indie rock bands, he spends six months of each year as a ranger in the wilds of the Katahdin region. He lives in Maine’s midcoast with his partner, the writer Lilly Hurd, and his son, Leo.


If book genres were pieces of clothing, then fantasy would be my favorite, worn-out pair of blue jeans. If you want to escape your own world and observe one that is usually both less complicated and more bleak than your own, with fascinating characters that almost never exist in real life, this is the list for you.
- The Farseer Trilogy, Robin HobbThis world is beautiful. Especially when you get to the description of the mountains and those wonderful stone objects that would almost certainly be killed by a movie director. It is also medieval and consequently sexist, but that doesn’t make its best characters any less winsome. There is a refreshing throwback to the ideas of honor and integrity, but it isn’t overbearing, nor does it take away from the inherent cynicism of many of the characters. The magic is genuinely interesting, and is one of the few books I’ve read that actually attempts to answer the question “If magic exists, why is its use in battle limited to eleventh hour rabbit-out-of-hat type victories, complete with church choir scores and lots of light?”
- The Mistborn Series, Brandon SandersonIf you haven’t read this yet, you’re missing out. A female protagonist whose author managed to paint her as independent while finding a less lazy way to indicate femininity than ‘effortless sexiness’. The world is fascinating. Although the ‘what if the Dark Lord had won’ idea falls slightly flat in my opinion (it’s the same as a world where the Dark Lord hasn’t yet been defeated, which is covered by a fair number of authors), there’s plenty to sustain interest, what with the idea of Allomancy, the probing of privilege and trauma, and the nuanced treatment of what happens after you beat the bad guy.
- The Underland Chronicles, Suzanne CollinsThis series is slightly less gritty in tone, with a twelve year old (who sounds about sixteen) as the protagonist. But it’s Suzanne Collins pre-Hunger Games, and it’s got the same sharply novel perspective on saving the world as her more popular series, The Hunger Games. It’s not alternative universe exactly, with Gregor entering the Underland through his NYC apartment. But it’s definitely fantasy, with the giant talking bats, rats and (eurgh!) cockroaches. For young adult fiction, it has one of the best portrayals of battle hardening I’ve ever read, and an incredibly sympathetic treatment of prejudice, bias and traditionalism. Its realistic in how it kills important characters and refused to have a ‘happy ending’, and it gets points for including a crabby old Rat as an extremely enjoyable greybeard character and an adorable toddler as a Princess.
- The First Law Series, Joe AbercrombieIf you’re a seasoned reader of this genre, you’ll note the subtle self-satire that the author employs almost from the beginning, and uses to amplify twists and turns until the plot is no longer familiar. Which can be confusing, because the setting is. There is no bad guy in this series – just a bunch of people who happen to want different things. There is no noble leader – just a lazy douchebag with a point to prove. There is no true love – just love (?). There is no antihero – just a terribly unfortunate man who is unapologetically bitter. There is no overturning of the social order – just reordering. And yet there are swords, wizards, distressed damsels, noblemen, peasants, soldiers, robbers, vigilantes, and empires. It takes a while to pick up, but the dry humor and the realistic characters move it along nicely.
- His Dark Materials, Philip PullmanSinister and sweet in equal measure, this book is an overwhelming mashup of magic, mystery, action, romance, philosophy, science, and religion. And Pullman isn’t posturing – it’s all smart and researched. The story is an achingly beautiful one about coming of age in the most unfamiliar of fantasy settings. It is a chronicle, most importantly, of the loss of innocence on one’s own terms. It is an ardent supporter of individual autonomy. By the time we’re finished with Lyra, our minds and hearts are so used to being stirred simultaneously, that it is a while before anything else is good enough.

In a slightly different timeline than ours, the explosion of information and misinformation came to be considered a direct threat to society. In a daring decision, it was decided to create a new government agency dedicated solely to information management. Some thirty years later, in 2019, the government still monitors and controls information, suppressing anything they find undesirable, but standing against their abuses of power are the libraries, with their special agents called 'the book soldiers'.

Lettice Curtis did her best to record all the names of every Air Transport Auxiliary pilot in her book, ‘Forgotten Pilots’. But there were a few omissions. One of them was British aviatrix Marjorie Spiller, also known as Margery. Pre-war actress, pilot and flying instructor, she served briefly with ATA. She died in 1942 from ill health.
Her story is now on record here. It also provides a small insight into Pauline Gower’s admirable leadership skills as Commandant of the Women’s ATA.

Phone novel is the fiction that can only be read on cell phones. SMS, E-mail and Java application are the main ways to give form to a phone novel. Java application gives the most compact design in these methods. The first phone novel was published in 2004 in Japan, titled ‘Deep Love’ written by Yoshi. Later, phone novels caught on in Korea, China and Switzerland. Phone novels are also called Mobile novels, Cell phone novels and Mobile fiction. In November 2004 an attempt was made in India by a man called Ro Gue to create a SMS novel-Cloak Room- in English by sending 16 SMS to customers. But the attempt was stopped without a real ending.
The first phone novel to be released in any Indian language is Neelakkannukal (Blue Eyes) written & presented by P.R.Harikumar, a lecturer in Malayalam, Sree Sankara College, Kalady. The size of the novel with all its six chapters is 70KB. This is embedded in a screen as a Java Application. Any Java enabled mobile phone is qualified enough for reading this Malayalam novel in its small screen. No other program or font is needed for the purpose. The story depicted in this novel-Neelakkannukal-is about a lady teacher who travels in wrong ways due to her ill-fated life conditions. The mental agony she feels due to the same is beautifully pictured in the novel. To give chance to experience the nature of his works, he has already distributed 600 copies of this phone novel free of cost among the Malayalam readers worldwide. The novel was well received worldwide by the Malayalam community.
Earlier, Harikumar has made the mobile editions of Adhyatma Ramayanam in Malayalam (340 KB in size) and Thirukkural in Tamil (110 Kb in size). Both of them made headlines in the media.
