Book Review: Move Without Pain
Martha Peterson’s book, Move Without Pain, is an important new contribution to the work of Hanna Somatics education, and to individuals looking for a user-friendly introduction to the Hanna Somatics exercises, to work with on their own or as an adjunct to private sessions.
When I first learned about Hanna Somatics, I was thrilled to find Thomas Hanna’s book and read the primary source in detail. As a natural health practitioner, I was fascinated to study the principles involved, but there was a bit of a disconnect for me when it came to performing the exercises he describes. I sensed that I was missing certain subtleties of movement and awareness in order to be most effective and to adapt them to my individual needs.
Soon afterward, when I read Ms. Peterson’s book, I was so impressed by how she explained the concepts in more practical terms that helped me “get” it. It’s important for people to understand how Hanna Somatics works so that they can become more attuned to their own body’s process of learning more relaxed and functional movement. So she discusses why people have pain, the role of the brain in either restricting or allowing natural movement, and how that relates to what our muscles are doing.
Her explanations are very easy to grasp, the writing flows smoothly and the layout is so visually pleasing that it’s very enjoyable to read through the book and pick it up again and again to refer to as needed.
The photos in the book of Ms. Peterson performing the various exercises, which are organized sequentially, make it easy to see how each is done, and simple instructions next to each photo make it easy to refer to. I’ve found many books on movement that, due to poor layout and how the images are displayed, the movements are too difficult to visualize. Move Without Pain with its excellent information and layout that makes the instructions come to life, makes Hanna Somatics more accessible to everyone.
I feel that Hanna Somatics is an important part of natural health education. It deserves to be made accessible to anyone interested in changing habitual movement patterns that cause pain and to allow the wisdom of the body to regain control for greater freedom of movement and alleviation of pain. I can wholeheartedly recommend Move Without Pain to anyone interested in learning more about Hanna Somatics and/or wanting to start learning the exercises - to help with a specific pain issue or to increase flexibility, reduce stress, and generally feel better in their body.
I’ve been fortunate enough to have a Hanna Somatics practitioner nearby, and find that personal guidance is tremendously helpful especially for those who have certain physical limitations or need to tailor the exercises to their needs.
Private sessions can also help with the nuances that make the daily practice even more effective, as well as providing more support and encouragement on a personal level. So I will be recommending Martha Peterson’s work to my friends and clients - which includes not only her book, but instructional DVDs and private sessions either in person or by online video conferencing. See Essential Somatics for more information.


Graphic Language: The Art & Literature of Comics (on display at the University of Iowa) traces the origins of comics, from the evolution of graphic style alongside printing technologies to their conceptual roots in satire and serialized short fiction. This path is well-defined through the chronological presentation of the works around the perimeter of the exhibit, and the inclusion of early images that are not yet "comics" yet were clear stepping stones for the medium.
Additionally, Graphic Language highlights the craft and technique of the individual comic artists. When converting hand-crafted images to reproduced prints, the subtle gestures of the hand of the artist are often lost. The original works, up to twice as large as their printed counterparts, show these subtleties. The explanatory labels and signage emphasize this point, and note the individual craft behind a usually mass-produced and commoditized medium.

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE LUNA EMPIRE
father was the island’s penultimate ruler; everything that happened during his
rule was what Plato later called the “nature of the gods interfering with the
nature of man” and the “inability to survive true happiness.” It was during his
rule that the entertainment empire was created, which they called LUNAparks—gambling
halls, strip clubs, gladiator battles, and everything else that came to the
isolated island from the continent.
In his better years, his father
was a thickset man with a round Moon face; the fire symbol in the middle of his
forehead was like one of Luna’s craters and was the ideal source of inspiration
for the court poet to write the an ode in praise of the “eternal ruler.”
was also during his father’s rule that Zeus decided to punish the degenerate
human race, even though the reason wasn’t the fall of mankind, as the eschatologists
like to think. What really angered Zeus was his visit to the Amilos Province.
There, unbeknownst to him, the god was served human flesh. As revenge, the
ruler of Olympus turned the ruler of Amilos into a wolf—so that he himself
would have to eat human flesh.
Zeus battered the Amilos palace
with ferocious lightning; it seemed that would be enough for the gods, but it
The gods of Olympus met and
unanimously agreed to wipe out mankind—by sending upon them a terrible storm
with earthquakes and torrential rains.
After us, the deluge, was the
most commonly heard phrase that summer.
Amaru’s memory, his grandfather was a monumental gray-haired man with thick
eyebrows and a bad set of dentures. He was a monument among monuments; you
couldn’t throw a rock without hitting something dedicated to the great Successor,
a pyramid or bust; Poseidon and Luna had more dedications, but none of them
were as grand as the orichalcum pole erected in his grandfather’s time, which
was engraved with words specially chosen by the court poets; they were engraved
with golden words into the pole:
“Our ruler is a spirit of the
earth, who appears at nightfall and shines like lightning in the broad expanse
An anonymous historian had
something else to say about this era:
“The sun hid behind the clouds
all summer long. There was complete silence across the land; a thick fog
covered the people and fields like a sail. The air was heavy and oppressive;
the people had no happiness or joy.”
This is the time of Amaru’s
grandfather is better described in another ancient Greek record:
“The entire world looks like a
field of corpses. A red evening glow—the blood of those sentenced to death. The
stars—the scattered bones of the dead. A bright moon—a skull.”
This era was known as the Great
Fire or the Great Terror, but his grandfather—a sneering, bearded man with a
pipe between his lips—inspired fear in everyone from Tyrrhenia in Europe to the
land on the other side of the sea.
And it was he who introduced the
concept of TWO WORLDS.
reality, the ancient Greek myth about Athena’s and Poseidon’s quarrel has
immortalized the memory of the Greek-Atlantean war. This myth doesn’t say
anything about the reasons for the war, or that the islanders’ seaside sunsets
as well as sunrises were red—but that even the Moon rose bloody.
Two-thirds of Asia’s population
was killed in the name of the Luna Empire, as was three-fourths of Europe’s
population. The bearded ruler also wiped out half of the island’s population,
who were slow to realize that the sign of the Sun had no room in their lives.
The thousand-years-old Sun cult
was reduced to rubble in less than a decade.
Once he’d finished with the
islanders, his grandfather turned to Europe and Asia.
Athenians pushed the Atlantean forces back to the sea, and forced them to
retreat to the island. Since that war (which, let’s remember, the bearded ruler
referred to as the TWO WORLDS WAR), no ship fared the sea between the continent
and the island, except for on moonless nights.
Herodotus believes that the Atlantean
lost the war (which was the real first world war) because the Athenians and
Asians DIDN’T worship the Sun, and because many of their gods were similar to
those of the Atlanteans.
The Luna Empire showed its
weakness for the first time, and thousands of warriors returned to the island,
Their hearts retreated into the
shadows of doubt—was the Moon a false god?

Part of the fun of making my latest book, Willoughby’s World of Wonder, is that I got to create a variety of weird, small critters. Sure, there are lots of big creatures in Willoughby’s, such as a Pegasus, Unicorn, sea monsters, Giants, Kraken, and so many more, but the little creatures are just cute. Mostly.
The creature above is an Egyptian Book Mite. These diminutive beasties love to eat old scrolls, parchment, and vellum, and thus destroyed the Great Library of Alexandria. The librarians there deliberately set the place ablaze to hide the severe damage the Book Mites did.
The Wild Hare Hen is is an Easter favorite amongst the children. Hatching from brightly-colored shells, the Hare Hens were given as gifts during this holiday season. They cannot be domesticated, however, as successive generations of captive Hare Hens, and their eggs, lose their colors, until they become blank white. Many scholars believe that finding the colorful eggs in the wild led to the tradition of the Easter Egg Hunt.
City dwellers are already familiar with the Sky Rat. Half-rat, half-pigeon these vermin fly through the subway tunnels in great flocks, swarming into subway stations, heralding the arrival of trains. They are generally considered unclean animals.
The Wheel Snake evolved from simpler species of snakes because of the need to survive in hostile environments. These snakes have four separate digestive systems, allowing it to capture and eat new prey even as it is still digesting other prey. This comes in handy in the desert, where food is scarce, and bounty must be taken advantage of. It leaves a distinctive spiral trail as it moves through sand or soft dirt.
Willoughby’s World of Wonder is available on my site and on Amazon.

Seeing a child sit down with a book is always such an empowering sight. Whether it be a 2 year old analyzing the pictures in a book, or a 13 year old deeply engrossed in a novel, literacy education happens through all ages.
Oftentimes parents ask, “How do you even begin to teach reading?” The most important tool is to read to your child at home. Not only is it his or her first exposure to books, but it begins to open the door to literacy and fosters a love of reading at a very early age. It also helps children develop language and listening skills and prepares them to eventually understand written
language. Lastly, reading aloud to children – whether it is a simple picture book or a classic novel- stimulates their imagination and expands their vocabulary and understanding of the world. Children model behavior, so the more you read at home, the more likely they will love books and want to learn how to read.
Schools build upon this foundation and add the instructional approach. A great foundational reading program is not only one that teaches the necessary skills, but also includes authentic practice using these skills. Although worksheets are how most of us were taught, hands-on practice and being able to physically manipulate words through repetition makes more connections than simply filling in the blank . It’s also important to have a program that reaches all levels of learning. Many programs teach “to the middle” and leave out learners who might be excelling or needing additional assistance.
At The Parish School at St. Edward, starting in Kindergarten, the learners utilize a unique program entitled Wilson Fundations. This is a systematic program designed for foundational reading and spelling skills which emphasizes phonemic awareness, phonics-word study, high frequency word study, fluency, vocabulary, handwriting, and spelling. When children are exposed to foundations of reading in a systematic approach their base knowledge for literacy strengthens. Wilson Fundations also instructs through a systematic exposure to chants, hands-on practice using white boards to label words and magnetic boards to manipulate words. As children continue to acquire literacy skills and layer on additional knowledge onto an already solid foundation, learners are able to more readily accept those skills while continuing to challenge themselves and show great progress in their reading ability as a life-long reader.
Wilson Fundations is an extensive research-based program. Often times there are programs that have what appears to be great strategies, fun activities, and visually appealing. These types of programs could be great for home use as a supplement to the classroom instruction, however, as a school, it is important to implement a program that has years of use and backed by research. In a program review conducted by Florida Center for Reading Research (FCRR), all aspects of foundational reading such as phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension were taught and practiced with using Wilson Fundations and no weaknesses in the program were noted.
Research and foundational skills aside, the true moment of a successful reading program is watching it being used in the classroom and observing how the children are retaining the information. When one steps into an English Language Arts classroom at The Parish School at St. Edward, the amount of engagement and passion for learning are very evident. In speaking with the learners about what they are currently reading, the vocabulary they use to explain their book and the connections they are able to make to their life or to our Catholic faith are always astonishing.

Giving Thanks for Saint Theodore Guerin
Last Sunday we had a special Mass at the Cathedral. It was in honor of Saint Mother Theodore Guerin. She is our first saint from Indiana. She is the founder of the Sisters of Providence Mary of the Woods order. She is also the foundress of St. Mary of the Woods College.
Mother Guerin was French, very French. Her father had served in Napoleon’s navy. She was born in 1798 in Brittany France. Two of her younger brothers died t an early age. Her father was murdered by a bandit. She knew about suffering and she knew about surviving. She also knew how to be stubborn.
At age 20 she asked her mother for permission to join a religious order, her mother refused. She again made the same request five years later and her mother finally agreed. She joined the Sisters of Providence and took her perpetual vows in 1831.
She became a gifted teacher and a healer of the sick. Skills that would prove to be invaluable in the wilderness of Indiana.
The young nation of the United States was on the move. The wilderness was moving west, all the way to Indiana. Immigrants were an important part of the expanding nation and its expanding economy. Vincennes Indiana had played an important part in the states history. It was a political, military and trading center for French North America. It then became part of British North American and was part of the territories belonging to the colony of Virginia. In the 1832 it was the seat of the Diocese of Vincennes.
Bishop Brute was tasked with serving the needs of Catholics for the entire state of Indiana. This was no small task. The state was a magnet for immigrants from Ireland, France, and Germany, many who were Catholic. Bishop Brute requested a religious order from Europe to serve the needs of the growing Catholic population.
A physically fragile Sister Guerin was asked to head this important mission. After much prayer and discernment she agreed. She then made a three month journey. After traveling by ship, train, and wagon she and five sisters arrived in the wilderness of Indiana near Terre Haute in Oct. 1840.
From humble beginnings she showed why she was the right choice for the job. She learned English and negotiated with businessman. She founded the St. Mary of the Woods College. She farmed, raised crops and cared for livestock.
She established schools in Jasper, Vincennes, Fort Wayne, St. Peter’s and Terre Haute Indiana. She worked to establish centers in Illinois. She opened two orphanages. She opened additional schools in Evansville, North Madison and Columbus Indiana. She became the “Mother of the Catholic School System in Indiana”. The Order's schools expanded to include Chicago, Los Angeles and Boston. We celebrated her accomplishments at the cathedral because she had founded a school on the Cathedral Square. She is part of our history.
At the time of her death there were 67 professed sisters, nine novices and seven postulants.
Pope John Paul II described Mother Theodore Guerin as "a perfect blend of humanness and holiness". Last year Pope Benedict completed the canonization process and she was declared a Saint. Last week our Diocese celebrated and gave thanks for a Hoosier Saint who faced prejudice, wilderness and adversity and still managed to make a significant contribution to her adopted nation.


Electric Irish Homes: Rural Electrification, Domestic Products and Irish Women in the 1950s and 1960s is a research project looking at the effects of rural electrification on rural Irish housewives and homes during the 1950s and 1960s, focusing on the importation, promotion, cultural context and significance of domestic electrical products and their meaning to a generation of rural housewives. It was funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council from 2016 to 2019, and includes the Kitchen Power exhibition in the National Museum of Ireland – Country Life and a forthcoming monograph.
Although electric products for cooking or cleaning were seen as modernising and liberating technologies in other countries, this project will use archival research, object analysis and oral history to consider to what extent these meanings held for Irish women, particularly against the background of Irish establishment attitudes to the role of married women as domestic housewives. As the rural electrification project of the Electricity Supply Board (ESB) was rolled out across the State, the majority of domestic electrical products such as irons, fridges or vacuum cleaners were largely imported from Britain, Europe and the United States, and the project will look at the specifics of product ranges available in Ireland, and consider the implications of ‘modern’ influences from outside the state, particularly before the Scandinavian Report on Irish Design (1962) kickstarted the native design industry in the late 1960s and 1970s. Outputs include a monograph, journal articles, and an exhibition in the National Museum of Ireland – Country Life, accompanied by a community textile art project. The project has also been supported by a Design History Society Research Travel Grant, 2015 and the Fundació Història del Disseny 2nd Alfaro Hofmann Collection Research Grant for the Study of Domestic Appliances: The Vacuum Cleaner, 2015.
The Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) funds world-class, independent researchers in a wide range of subjects: ancient history, modern dance, archaeology, digital content, philosophy, English literature, design, the creative and performing arts, and much more. This financial year the AHRC will spend approximately £98m to fund research and postgraduate training in collaboration with a number of partners. The quality and range of research supported by this investment of public funds not only provides social and cultural benefits but also contributes to the economic success of the UK.

To reconstruct the life and works of a colossus centuries later is no cakewalk and more so to translate it into a stage show much less so. Kudos to Kamala Srinivasan of Hamsini for being able to put together in a ballet format, the life and works of 13th century Tamil Vaishnava saint and scholar Vedanta Deshikan based on history, myth and literature on the occasion of the 750th year of the saint’s birth. His spiritual literary works abound by sheer numbers, poetic brilliance and profound philosophical content. The dance drama, “Vedanta Deshika Stotra Vaibhavam” fulfilled the criteria of a theatrical with the right dose of dance, song and music, dramatic elements, settings/props and characters to carry forward the narrative.
Himanshu Shrivastava as Vedanta Deshikan was picture perfect with a composure and restraint that was uniform throughout the play. His mime through gestures (hasta mudra) conveyed all that there was that had to be said while his facial expression remained calm with distant looks so akin to a spiritually realised soul. The story of the saint’s life from birth was traced through group dances celebrating milestone events like his cradle ceremony, his initiation into study by his maternal uncle, his marriage and so on. The English voice-over and the digital backdrop contributed to the story’s progress making it very comprehensible to a non-Tamil audience.
Adhering to the spirit of the theme which was more about his contribution to the volume of spiritual/religious literature of his times, the dance drama dealt deftly with his compositions, especially his popular poetic hymns to specific deities like the Garuda (mythical eagle), lord Hayagreeva (horse-man, deity of knowledge), Sri Rangnatha to name a few. And the composition and rendition of these verses was picturesquely depicted through song and dance – an aspect where this ballet scored over others of its kind.
As the saint gets initiated into the ‘Garuda mantra’ and begins chanting, we get to see dancer S.Vasudevan as Garuda swoop like a huge eagle on stage giving darshan to Deshikan. Vasudevan’s dancing propensity was at its peak as he emulated the bird in flight flapping its wings as also Hayagreeva where the dancer entered the stage giving the impression of a galloping horse. His brisk dance sequences were superbly staged coming as they were at the appropriate moment and enlivening the episode. His hasta mudras were articulate as was his footwork deciphering the deity being invoked. The Sudharshana chakra (of Vishnu) was epitomised through an exceptional dance which wheeled as it converged and diverged alternately creating an illusion of a chakra rotating in full vigour. The Rasleela which went down well with the audience was like a moving tableau. Not to leave the tradition of Bharatanatyam, the dance drama wrapped up with a tillana executed adroitly to sheer instrumental music. Careful selection of costumes in keeping with the times gave an air of authenticity. The show was hosted at New Delhi’s India Habitat Centre.

Water on the Table
Is water a commercial good like Coca-Cola, or a human right like air?
Featuring best-selling author, activist and public figure Maude Barlow and her mission to have water declared a human right, protected from privatization, Water On The Table explores Canada’s relationship to its freshwater, arguably its most precious natural resource. The film follows Barlow over the course of a year as she leads an unrelenting schedule as the U.N. Senior Advisor on Water to Father Miguel d’Escoto Brockmann, President of the 63rd Session of the United Nations.
Barlow is a ferociously committed, politically savvy, world-renowned human rights activist and author, often referred to as ‘the Ralph Nader of Canada.’…A very well-made and engaging documentary. Recommended.
University of California Berkeley
Director Marshall delivers a great portrait, while also giving voice to the many counter-arguments, for a balanced but ultimately persuasive plea for Barlow’s case that potable water be included as a human right.
A documentary that’s pointed but visually sumptuous and poetic.

This is an important film, beautifully constructed, seriously examining the values we put on water.

My journey began in 2003 when I read Blue Gold: The Battle Against the Corporate Theft of the World’s Water, Maude Barlow’s first book about the global water crisis. Fast forward to 2007, when I set forth tenaciously to make my first feature-length documentary film that would intimately centre Maude Barlow’s unwavering focus and inspired determination to have water declared a human right. While exploring Canada’s water from both a celebratory and political perspective, it was important to illustrate the dramatic tensions that exist in the struggle to protect water from privatization. Water On The Table presents a nail-biting thesis of strong opposing views to Maude’s vision, from policy makers and business specialists in Canada and the U.S.

Book Drive Tool Kit
Everything you need to know
to run a successful book drive for Read to Grow
Organizing and Running a Book Drive
Everyone who organizes and contributes to book drives helps us reach more children with the gift of books and the promise of literacy. We greatly appreciate all efforts. Most of about 160,000 books we expect to distribute this year have come to us from book drives.
We’d like to help you get started, so please contact us if you plan to run a book drive. Also, please fill out a Book Drive Registration Form. You can call Read to Grow at 203.488.6800 and ask for Linda Sylvester or Evelyn Tomasello. For Fairfield County book drives ask for Myra Healy.
- Set up a committee of volunteers to assist in the book drive. Also, determine what type of children’s books will be collected. (Remember, we collect and distribute books for children from newborns to high-school age.)
- Determine where and when to hold the book drive.
- Determine the time span of the book drive.
- Promote the book drive.
- Set up the book drive collection site.
- Run the book drive.
- Deliver the books to Read to Grow, or arrange for a pick-up.
Step 1: Set up a committee
The best way to form your committee is to start talking to classmates, co-workers, friends, family, and neighbors to generate interest.
Contact your school principal, school and community librarians, scout troop leaders, or religious leaders to ask for support and participation. Remember, there is strength in numbers!
Step 2: Determine where and when to hold a book drive
Possible locations for a book drive:
Schools — especially elementary schools — are among the most important organizing hubs for book drives. Principals, teachers and media specialists usually support these events and will often organize book drives in their schools. Be sure to get permission within the school, through the principal or director, before you start. You can request information from Read to Grow to share with others.
Organizing a book drive in an elementary school is a good way to reach the community, because young students will often involve their parents and siblings. Also, organizing a book drive is a great way for middle and high school students to fulfill community service projects.
Consider providing an incentive for the class that collects the most books, or keeping a graph in the school lobby of how many books are collected by each class and the school as a whole. Remember, it’s a group effort!
- Businesses and service organizations
Many companies and service groups (scouts, civic clubs and men’s and women’s clubs, etc.) choose to collect books for Read to Grow to support families and schools in their area. Running a book drive can be a significant way for a corporation or business to give back to the community in which it is located.
- Religious organizations/places of worship
Churches and temples are great places to hold book drives. Religious school classes or individual students may want to run a book drive for a confirmation, community service or mitzvah project. Ask religious leaders to assist in promoting your book drive and literacy to their members.
When to run a book drive:
Book drives can be held any time. Consider holding a drive in conjunction with other reading or literacy events at your school or library, many of which participate in the following annual events:
- Banned Books Week (September)
- Teen Read Week (October)
- National Family Literacy Month (November)
- Read Across America Day (March)
- D.E.A.R. – Drop Everything And Read (April)
- National Library Week (April)
- Week of the Young Child
- Children’s Book Week (May)
- Get Caught Reading Week (May)
- National Readathon Day (May)
- Reading Is Fun Week (May)
- Screen Free Week (May)
Step 3: Determine the time span of the book drive
Most book drives run from two weeks to a month. Donors need time to receive the information, go through their personal libraries and get the books to collection sites. However, there is no set length of time for a book drive. Work with your committee, if you have one, and with the venue you have chosen to determine what is best.
Step 4: Promote the Book Drive
Publicize! Put an announcement on your group’s social media site, newsletter or calendar. Call Read to Grow for posters to advertise the event, or download an 8½” x 11” poster that you can print yourself. You can also use a Read to Grow logo in your promotion material.
Send your book drive details to Read to Grow, and we will be share them through our social media and on our website.
Take photos. A good photo can be used to publicize an upcoming event, or to recognize a successfully completed one. Email photos in a .jpg format.
(A reminder when promoting a book drive: We want to give children the best quality of gently used books possible. Books should be odor- and mold-free and intact, with no torn or missing pages or covers. We cannot use library books stamped “Discard” or “Withdrawn.”
Step 5: Set up the collection site(s)
Boxes or bins for book collection should be placed where they will be most visible, such as in entryways or lobbies, or, as an alternative, in offices or classrooms.
Boxes or bins should be strong enough to hold large numbers of books. Plastic storage bins (18-gallon) work well.
Step 6: Run the book drive
Keep track of how full the boxes and bins are at the collection site(s). If they are full, move the books into other boxes or swap the full boxes for empty ones. Consider counting the books as they are packed into the boxes that will eventually go to Read to Grow.
Books can be transferred into smaller boxes (such as banker or copy paper boxes) once a bin is full. Boxes with cut-out handles work best.
Posters advertising the book drive should be placed by the book collection bin(s) and in prominent areas around the venue. Posters can be requested from Read to Grow or designed by volunteers. Remember to include:
- start and end dates of the collection;
- site(s) of the collection;
- information of a contact person with the book drive;
- Read to Grow phone number (203.488.6800) and website (readtogrow.org)
Counting the books is extremely helpful to us. It enables us to estimate how much room they will take up in our van if we pick them up and gives immediate feedback to participants/donors on your end. If your book drive involves students, they are usually excited to discover how many books they have collected.
If you can count the books in each box, please mark the outside clearly with the number inside. You can download book drive box labels, but it is not necessary to use them.
Once the collection is over, please remember to remove posters and other promotions.
Step 7: Deliver the books or arrange for a pick-up
Books should be packed in manageable boxes (such as banker or copy paper boxes) and can delivered to the Read to Grow office in Branford (53 School Ground Road) during office hours, Monday through Friday, 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Please contact Read to Grow ahead of time to schedule a drop-off day and time.
If you are unable to deliver the books, we can arrange with you for a pick-up.


Today we’ve published a report related to comparison of FineReader and Tesseract OCR engines. Both tools were tested on Polish historical documents (printed before 1850) coming from various Polish digital libraries. The comparison concerned both gothic and antiqua documents as well as noisy and clean images. In order to conduct the comparison both engines has been appropriately trained.
When comparing OCR results of both engines, there is no single winner that would outperform the second engine. However, we tried to point out differences between FineReader and Tesseract, their advantages and disadvantages. We invite you to read the report in order to get details of our approach and gained results.
All test cases are based on the ground truth data produced in the scope of the IMPACT project. The comparison itself was part of the pilot work conducted in course of the IMPACT project extension in the first half of 2012. IMPACT is supported by the European Community under the FP7 ICT Work Programme. The project is coordinated by the National Library of the Netherlands.
The full report is available for download on the PSNC Digital Libraries Team website dedicated to the IMPACT project results.

US Book Launch of REDRESS, Ireland's Institutions and Transitional Justice, University College Dublin Press
REDRESS: Ireland’s Institutions and Transitional Justice explores the ways in which Ireland – North and South – treats those who suffered in Magdalene Laundries, Mother and Baby Homes, County Homes, industrial and reformatory schools, and Ireland’s closed and secretive adoption system over the last one hundred years.
How will Ireland redress its legacy of institutional abuse and forced adoption? What constitutes justice? How might democracy evolve if the survivors’ experiences and expertise were allowed to lead the response to a century of gender and family separation-based abuses? These are the questions to which this collection of essays seeks answers. The publication has its origins in the ILA Major-Grant-Award-funded Towards Transitional Justice conference, which took place on the BC campus in November 2018.

This is a treat for a do-it yourself enthusiast like me. I have a very beautiful book named Ideenwerkstatt - Fantasievolle Collagen by Anna Galkina/Alice Rögele and Monika Reiter - Zinnau. This book is in German Language. Try finding a copy of this in English. Please contact me for the ISBN number of this book. The authors of this book have beautifully used general materials that are easily available in every house like pearls, wood pieces, paper, glass, straws, metal lids and many other items with oil paint on canvas to come out with beautiful modern art collages. I am currently working on one and will post a picture of that shortly. Here are a few pictures of the artwork from this book for your inspiration. This book has lovely illustrations and step by step instructions to do this artwork. Theme based items are collected to form a beautiful Collage art work.


In this third episode of my Halloween series, I’m going to share a few stories from Newfoundland folklorist Dale Jarvis. If you can’t tell, my allergies are really kicking my butt, and have been for a while. I won’t subject you to my scratchy voice too much, so Dale will step in.
I have three stories for you. The first is The White Horse, from his book Haunted Waters. The second is the Whistling Ghost of Labrador and the third one is the story of Paddy Mahoney, both from his book Haunted Shores. All Dale’s books are available at Flanker Press or at Amazon:


August is one of my least favorite months every year. The heat gets very tiresome by now; the humidity takes all the wind out of my sails. We had that fabulous cool June, and then Peter and I were fortunate to be in Maine during the worst heat waves in July, although even Maine was hotter than I would have liked some of the time. Now August is being difficult, and I just want summer to be over and crispness to return to the air. I want the freedom to move around outside and live my life without being dominated by the oppressive weather.
Today I decided to escape to the library in Copley Square. We have only two air conditioned rooms at home, and I get tired of being cooped up in there; I realized I could take advantage of the library’s air conditioning and spend the day there instead. Shortly after a small breakfast, I took the air conditioned bus to Copley Square and went right into the library, where it was cool and quiet still in the morning. First stop was the café, for second breakfast, a cup of iced tea and a cheese Danish (Friday treat). While sipping the tea very slowly, I read my current library book, Diana Athill’s Alive, Alive Oh!, reflections of a 97-year-old English writer on what seems important as she looks back on her life–my kind of book. I looked through the Globe on my phone, wrote an email to a former colleague who is still working while I’m blissfully retired, and looked at photos on the 365 Project, which I’ve recently started, all while luxuriating in having the whole day ahead of me to spend in the library in whatever way I wished–a play day!
After a while I got up and wandered around the library taking photos. The McKim building (1895) was built as “a palace for the people,” and I feel privileged every time I pass through the door, which has “Free to All” chiseled in the stone overheard. We take libraries for granted, but what a great concept this was in the 19th century! As a result of the generous civic mindedness of that era we get to have one of the best libraries in the country as our very own. The building is breathtaking, full of inspiration in itself.
All around, murals by Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, painted on canvas in France and installed in these spaces in 1895. I often walk right by them, but I focused on them more today. The various arts and sciences are represented on the sides of the staircase.
At the top, the muses and Enlightenment over the entrance to the Bates Reading Room:
The library takes in a whole city block, so there is plenty of room to roam. I didn’t go to the courtyard today, because it was so hot, but it’s one of my (and everyone’s) favorite spaces and one of the best public spaces in the entire city. Free concerts are offered there in the summer on Fridays at lunch time and Wednesdays in the evening, and it’s a wonderful place to take a cup of iced tea from the café and sit and read. It’s like a cloister, a sanctuary in the heart of the city.
And now for something completely different — I crossed into the Johnson Building (Philip Johnson, 1972), which has recently been renovated by William Rawn Associates. (See the gorgeous photo of the library front on their website.) The strange granite barriers across the front of the Boylston Street entrance, which seemed to defend the building against the street, have come down and been replaced by glass walls, opening up the library to the street and the public.
Not everyone notices the “Free for All” on the stone above the McKim Building entrance, but here it is front and center at the welcome desk just inside the doors.
As a beneficiary for over thirty years of the library’s book collection, lectures, programs, concerts, and classes, I find this sign thrilling. I can’t think of any other institution in our society that offers such riches to every one of us–for free! The library is the center of my city.
Those touch screens in the background of the photo are really fun. The library has fabulous collections of prints and photographs and rare books, which you can look at on the website, but here you can play around and search in different ways, for instance by color, and see the results on the large screens. I often stop for a while and look at things. One day recently I looked through the library’s collection of books designed by Sarah Wyman Whitman, whom I admire greatly–those were the days for book design!
The Johnson Building used to be gray, gray, gray. Now it’s filled with color. I’m not sure all the colors are the ones I would have chosen, but it’s all vastly better than how it was before.
The new Children’s Library on the second floor, which opened last year, is delightful and seems to be a huge success with the young set and their parents. Every time I look in on it, the place is hopping. Mothers stream in there with their strollers, and the pre-readers romp around the carpeted section provided for them. Picture books are displayed everywhere. Since I love children’s book illustration, I like to spend time in there sometimes, and today I looked at some of the books featured in the windows of the children’s library-within-a-library. It is wonderful to see the young ones enjoying this space; one can hope and expect that they will grow up to love reading, and the world will be a better place for it.
What a great idea it was to spend the day at the library–I had such a good time. I’m going to do it again on some of these hot August days and bring my laptop too. There are places to sit and plug in one’s laptop all around the library; on the mezzanine, the windows in back are lined with counters and stools where one can work quietly. It is such a luxury to have clear surfaces to work on, something I don’t seem to have anywhere in my home. I’m lucky to have practically door-to-door bus service to the library as the bus stop is around the corner from my building and the bus drops me off at the library.
If you’re visiting Boston, don’t miss the art and architecture tours of the library or at least look around on your own. Get something in the café and take it to the courtyard or have a lovely tea in the restaurant. The BPL is the first place I take out-of-town visitors. I’m so proud of our library.

Published March 2, 2001 by Cate McQuaid, Globe Staff
It's easy to conjure up the romantic image of an artist in his or her garret, toiling away alone to turn inspiration into art. Printmakers who rely on big presses to make their work don't often have that luxury of solitude. They invest with other artists in cooperative studios, where many people have access to the machinery of their medium. They end up having a different luxury: community.
In 1980, four recent art school graduates rented a space in East Cambridge and installed some presses. Jane Goldman, Catherine Kernan, Ilana Manolson, and Mary Sherwood called their enterprise Artist's Proof Studio. After only four years of creative cross-fertilization, the studio closed when gentrification priced the artists out of the rented space. Its passing was not wasted, though; artists who worked there went on to found their own printmaking studios, in the Boston area and in South Africa.
“Proof In Print: A Community of Printmaking Studios" at the Boston Public Library's Wiggin Gallery, takes a close look at the work of Artist's Proof and its descendants, the Mixit Print Studio and Hand Press Workshop in Somerville, and Artist Proof Studio in Johannesburg, South Africa. The show, which travels here from Johannesburg, is the brain-child of the original Artist's Proof founders and Sinclair Hitchings, keeper of prints at the BPL. The exhibit features a selection from portfolios made especially to trace and celebrate the genealogy of Artist’s Proof. Sales of the portfolios will benefit the South African studio, the only collective of its kind in that region, founded by Artist's Proof printmaker Kim Berman.
There are pictures from the 1980s on view in a side gallery, but the main event is the contemporary work put together for the portfolio. Manolson's "Putting Down Roots," an Ink Jet print and monotype, shows a cluster of plants and stones with roots spraying beneath them, embossed from the ink-stained roots themselves. Berman's "Ashes of Truth" is a three-plate intaglio suggesting a smoky, surreal landscape smol-dering in a mustardy haze, barren save for occasional tufts of grass sprouting against hope.
Berman went on to found Artist Proof - the name a nod to its predecessor - in South Africa. These African prints, by Berman and a half-dozen other artists, stand out from the Boston prints in both color and content; many of the works are saturated with yellows, greens, and reds, and almost all of them are representational, with a strong narrative element Pauline Mazibuko's four-color lithograph “At the Market Place" appears sun-drenched, with women shading themselves beneath a parasol, seated on the ground, selling fruit. Jacob Motsoane's etching and aquatint celebrates a newfound right: A black man casts a ballot, slipping it into the slot of a big, wooden box.
Hand Press Workshop specializes in experimental monotypes. Deborah Olin’s piece from “The T-Shirt Series" suggests she ran the inky T-shirt through the press. At the Mixit Studio, the setup of presses and studio space makes artists more prone to work independently. You can see the independence in the wide range of techniques and subject matter coming from Mixit. Joanna Kao's woodcut "Face" looms up in grainy white from a sea of black ink, a harrowing visage that is grim and war-like. Jennifer Perry's "Mnemosyne II," was printed from a soft etching plate stitched with human hair, delicate and unsettling strands over a bird cage shape.
It's nearly impossible to trace the influences the Artist's Proof printmakers and their descendants have had upon one another. Each is confident enough to his or her own artistry that no work seems derivative of another. The South African prints stand out for the shared vision of their culture; because the culture is still defining itself post-Apartheid, it makes sense that the art would be more narrative as the artists tell the stories of who they are becoming.

You can find any of these books at Amazon, Barnes and Noble or other good bookstores online. Just reading these books will give you a great deal of information that you need to put up a good fight against entities in your home or that are holding you hostage. These are the best books you could read to understand what is happening and help you figure out why it’s happening to you. I truly endorse these books and have read them all many times. I’ve added more information below so you can really see their value and a synopsis of the information they contain. There is also an additional ‘reading list’ on my Great Links page that simply lists some names of books without full descriptions. But they are also very efficacious to read.
“The Curse of El Diablo”, a true story of God vs the Devil in Northern Mexico, by Sonia Brosz
Deep in the heart of Mexico lies a hidden power that has existed for centuries, where sorcerers and witches practice the ancient art of Brujaria for both good and evil purposes. These Brujos and Brujas are well-versed in the manipulation of power that they use to heal sickness, cast curses, or even kill!
In a local village, a highly respected Brujo-healer is murdered by another Brujo, who inflicts a powerful and continuing curse upon his victim’s family. Help comes in the form of Sonia Brosz, a Charismatic Catholic and Spiritual Warrior experienced in doing battle with demonic forces. With her spiritual partner, Rev. Todd Berg, Sonia travels to Mexico to free the family from the torment of the evil Brujo and bring peace to the area. But the evil they encounter is much stronger and more powerful than they imagined and it soon becomes a very real struggle of life and death.
The Curse of El Diablo is the frighteningly true story of an epic battle between the forces of good and evil, and the triumph of faith over darkness.
“An Exorcist Tells His Story”, by Fr. Gabriel Amorth
In this powerful book, the renowned exorcist of Rome tells of his many experiences in his ministry as an exorcist doing battle with Satan to relieve the great suffering of people in the grip of evil. The importance of the ministry to “expel demons” is clearly seen in the Gospels, from the actions of the Apostles, and from Church history. Fr. Amorth allows the reader to witness the activities of the exorcist, to experience what an exorcist sees and does. He also reveals how little modern science, psychology, and medicine can do to help those under Satan’s influence, and that only the power of Christ can release them from this kind of mental, spiritual or physical suffering.
“An Exorcist Tells His Story” has been a European best-seller that has gone through numerous printings and editions. No other book today so thoroughly and concisely discusses the topic of exorcism.
“An Exorcist: More Stories”, by Fr. Gabriel Amorth and Nicoletta V. Mackenzie
Following up his international best-selling book, “An Exorcist Tells His Story”, Fr. Gabriele Amorth, the renowned chief exorcist of Rome, expands on some of the key topics of his previous book, covering important details about demonic or occult issues. He uses concrete examples from his own experiences and those of other exorcists to illustrate and substantiate his points. Since satanic sects, occultism, séances, fortune-tellers and astrologers are so widespread toda, Father Amorth asks the question why is it so difficult today to find an exorcist, or a priest who is an expert in this field? The example and the teaching of Christ is very clear, as is the tradition of the Church. But today’s Catholics are often misinformed.
Exorcisms are reserved for appointed priests, while all believers can make prayers of liberation. What is the difference? What norms must be followed? What problems are still open and unresolved in this field?
“Interview with an Exorcist” by Fr. Hosea Antonio Fortea
In today’s culture of scientific enlightenment, many consider belief in demonic possession and exorcism to be superstitious remnants of the Dark Ages. Even many Christians, contrary to the clear words of Jesus in the Gospel, scoff at the notion that the Devil and demons really exist. Is demonic possession real? Are believers really in any danger from Satan and his crafty minions? What is the truth about exorcism? This book has these answers, and much more! 100 questions and answers!
Full of facts about exorcism and interesting stories.

“The Demonologist: The Extraordinary Career of Ed and Lorraine Warren” by Gerald Brittle

Illustrated with photos of phenomena in progress from the Warrens’ private collection. For over five decades Ed and Lorraine Warren have been known as the world s most renowned paranormal investigators. Lorraine is a gifted clairvoyant, while Ed is the only non-ordained demonologist recognized by the Catholic Church. Together they have investigated thousands of hauntings in their career.
“Shadows of the Dark” by John Zaffis, Brian McIntyre
John Zaffis is a world-renowned psychic researcher who has investigated thousands of reports of alleged haunting and has witnessed and assisted in over 85 exorcisms to date. He has witnessed and documented levitating furniture, physical attacks by unseen entities and many other inexplicable actions encompassing the supernatural and preternatural. Zaffis also has accumulated thousands of artifacts from case studies including haunted Voodoo dolls, sacrificial swords, and other eerie artifacts from the field. “Shadows of the Dark” is John Zaffis’ extraordinary life story as documented through his case files. This written work is the life, testimony, and frightening recollection of one of today’s top ghost busters.
“Beware the Night” by Ralph Sarchie and Lisa Collier Cool
A sixteen-year NYPD veteran, Ralph Sarchie works out of the 46th Precinct in New York’s south Bronx. But it is his other job that he calls “the Work”: investigating cases of demonic possession and assisting in the exorcisms of humanity’s most ancient–and most dangerous–foes. Now he discloses for the first time his investigation into incredible true crimes an inhuman evil that were never explained, solved, or understood except by Sarchie and his partner. Schooled in the rituals of exorcism, and an eyewitness to the reality of demonic possession, Ralph Sarchie has documented a riveting chronicle of the inexplicable that gives a new shape to the shadows in the dark.
In Beware the Night, he takes readers into the very hierarchy of a hell on earth to expose the grisly rituals of a Palo Mayombe priest; a young girl whose innocence is violated by an incubus; a home invaded by the malevolent spirit of a supposedly murdered nineteenth-century bride; the dark side of a couple who were literally, the neighbors from hell; and more. Ralph Sarchie’s NYPD revelations are a powerful and disturbing documented link between the true-crime realities of life and the blood-chilling ice-grip of a supernatural terror.
“The Rite” ‘The Making of a Modern Exorcist’ by Matt Baglio
Father Gary Thomas was working as a parish priest in California when church leaders asked him to travel to Rome for training in the rite of exorcism. In Rome, as an apprentice to a veteran Italian exorcist, his eyes were opened to a darker side of the Catholic faith he had never known, and he came to see the battle between good and evil as never before. Journalist Matt Baglio had full access to Father Gary over the course of his training, and the astonishing story he found reveals that the phenomena of possession, demons, the Devil, and exorcism are not merely a remnant of the archaic past, but remain a fearsome power in many people’s lives even today. The inspiration for the movie The Rite, starring Anthony Hopkins, this book provides a uniquely intimate glimpse into the chilling world of a real-life Roman Catholic exorcist.
“God’s Ghostbusters” by Thomas R. Horn
Recently some 300 exorcists flocked to Poland for a week-long congress to examine the current fashion for vampirism the world-over and the apparent connection between this fascination and a surge in demonic possession.
This comes as the world is experiencing an explosion of ancient occultism combined with wicked fascination for ghosts and all things paranormal. In the United States alone, there are now more than two hundred thousand registered witches and as many as 8 million unregistered practitioners of “the craft.” On college and high school campuses, vampires, werewolves, and other “creatures of the night” are esteemed as objects of desire and idolized by young men and women who view them as cult icons of envious mystical power. Church goers are enchanted by the darkness as well. An April 13, 2011 article “Mysticism Infecting Nazarene Beliefs” was preceded only a few days before by a Telegraph article describing how a “surge in Satanism” inside the church has sparked a “rise in demand for exorcists” within traditional religious settings.”

“Codex Magica: Secret Signs, Mysterious Symbols, and Hidden Codes of the Illuminati” by Texe Marrs
Codex Magica is awesome in its scope and revelations. It contains over 1,000 actual photographs and illustrations. You’ll see with your own eyes the world’s leading politicians and celebrities—including America’s richest and most powerful—caught in the act as they perform occult magic.

I usually work in gameplay and UI roles in projects that I am involved in and almost always in relatively high level languages. For this reason, in what free time I have available, I occasionally write small, low level utility libraries, mostly in C99 and therefore should be very portable
These are my Tiny Little Libraries. I don’t claim they are the most optimal solutions, nor are they the smallest. Most of the time, they are just small self contained tasks I set myself to see whether I can do it.
The design principle for all of them is very similar. They follow a few key ideas.
- Adhering to C89 or C99 standard. Allows for the libraries to run on everything more powerful than a toaster.
- Have no implied state – everything should be contained within a library context.
- No external dependencies apart form what is absolutely necessary.
- Should run at a minimum on *nix systems, and ideally all on Windows.
- Have simple API with as few exposed functions as possible to provide the functionality required.
This was my first tiny little library and the one that set the design for subsequent libraries. It takes mathematical equations (such as (x^2)+22) and will evaluate them, given values of x.
Potentially my most complicated TL library to date. A small 8 bit processor, initially with 8080 instruction set.
A little lisp interpreter. As with most of these libraries was a proof of concept. It would be nice to make this a more featureful in future.
Client-Server architecture for communicating between processes which may or may not be on the same computer

It is conceived as interfacing with its environment in three ways: i With the physical interface, the soul relates to things that present themselves to our physical senses from the external world. At the same time it makes the moral goodness in us come alive.
As the soul makes its continuing journey from one incarnation to another, it repeatedly passes through the three worlds of the physical, emotional and mental planes.
When the soul finishes its stay in the physical body in one life time, he leaves the body and begins his new life-period. During this time, the causal body sheds its astral and mental energies acquired from the life it has just lived.

Next it becomes clothed with a new set of mental and astral vesture that expresses the faculties inherited from his previous lives. Then he selects a series of goals and life lesson for his next life on earth. This is in the form of a sacred contract that he makes with the Divine and determines what kind of a life he is going to live next. The soul creates his Life Plan prior to his next incarnation.
How to Access the Memories of Your Past Lives
This includes the life purpose that he will take. Although he chooses his experiences before coming to earth again, he does not plan his entire life. He will only devise the major intersections and overall themes that form his personal lessons. Finally he is drawn by forces to the womb that provides him with a suitable body for the next cycle of rebirth.

These type of readings can also give you information about how different people in your life in this lifetime have been involved with you in past lifetimes which means you can understand why you feel and react the way you do with some people who are in your life. You can identify repeating patterns, blockages and behaviours around particular souls so you can move on in your life and theirs.

Close by was a small park inviting me to sit on the warm tree-shaded ground. I immediately felt consumed by a bottomless well of agony and I began to weep for the pain of the little boy as he wailed at the sight of his dead parents and death and destruction everywhere. Sitting there, I felt consumed as though I, David, would never recover and the weight of the tragedy would overwhelm this lifetime and continue to haunt far into the future.
Regaining awareness, I reminded myself to breath into the feelings and to the awareness that this work, this empathic connection and acknowledgement, was the catharsis needed to initiate healing for the entities caught in the tragedy and for my lifetimes carrying the grief and sense of pending loss.
As quickly as the sadness and loss surfaced, it also ceased. The images and feelings were replaced with the presence of the moment.

Knowledge-Based Dynamic Capabilities
Author: Vaneet Kaur
The chapter presents the theoretical standpoint for this book. The chapter reviews predominant theories for gaining Competitive Advantage and carries on with criticizing and synthesizing the current literature. Gaps in current knowledge are identified and a theoretical model is prepared after a thorough review of existing body of knowledge. In doing so, the chapter deeply delves into three parent disciplines: (1) Competitive Advantage which details the major schools of thoughts that explain the sources of Competitiveness; (2) Knowledge Management which covers a brief summary of the Knowledge Management Processes and Capabilities and the benefits of the same to organizations; (3) Dynamic Capabilities which covers the concept, nature and classification of such capabilities. The chapter continues with a discussion of Knowledge-Based Dynamic Capabilities, the transcending intermediate paradigm as a cornerstone leading to the formulation of the research model and the associated hypotheses intended to achieve the research objectives.

At one time Gaelic was spoken over most of the territory of modern-day Scotland and its influence may be seen in the names given to settlements and physical features throughout the country, particularly in those areas (the Highlands and the Hebrides) where the language has historically been strongest. A basic understanding of some typical Gaelic place-name elements can do much to enhance time spent in these areas. Here I have listed a number of on-line resources which may be of interest in this regard. ...more
Among hill-walkers and climbers there is a fairly keen appreciation of the correct names of Scotland’s mountain regions and the hills which lie within them. Having come to landscape photography from such a background, I have found that the names used to describe some of our most photographed places are often at odds with long-standing place-name tradition.
In this article I have highlighted a couple of examples of very well-photographed places where a lot of confusion seems to have arisen. I hope that this might encourage the practice of looking at the map and/or checking original sources rather than simply repeating place-names quoted by photographers who may not be all that familiar with the local geography. ...more

Just as the rainbow, according to the account of the mathematicians, is a reflection of the sun, and owes its many hues to the withdrawal of our gaze from the sun and our fixing it on the cloud, so the somewhat fanciful accounts here set down are but reflections of some true tale which turns back our thoughts to other matters Buy now Thesis Statement About Egyptian Pyramids
