Elsa's Legacy - The Born Free Story
Elsa the Lioness truly did leave a legacy. She proved to us
that Lions are not just eating machines as portrayed
in most TV nature programs, but individuals with a wide range of
qualities, capable of varied emotions, deep trust and lasting friendship.
Born Free was a book and then came a film that changed forever the way we
think about wildlife. This lovely and touching documentary shares with
us the story of the Adamsons' life with Elsa. Their diaries, home movies and
detailed records reveal an intimate look into their pioneering work and
unique relationship with lions and leaves us with a new appreciation for the
world of animals we never knew until Elsa and Born Free opened our eyes!

Adamson's book about Elsa the lioness, who was raised by a Kenya, East
Africa game warden and his wife and then given her freedom. Like
the book which shares the same title, this movie shows us that wild animals
are individuals capable of trust, understanding and affection. This is a
timeless film, sincere and engrossing. Its message of respect, trust, love
and determination is as relevant today as ever. Oscars for Best

After George Adamson was tragically murdered by Somalian poachers,
while bravely saving the life of a young tourist and his assistant, Gareth
Patterson rescued the three lion cubs for which George was caring for in
Kenya East Africa. Gareth, who worked with George just before his death,
shared a similar passion for the lion, having studied the fragile population
still surviving in the remote Tuli bushlands of Botswana. Gareth came to the
rescue. He translocated the lion cubs, Batian a male and females Furaha and

at the turn of the new millennium, Fulcrum: an annual of poetry
and aesthetics is a one-of-a-kind international literary annual
that includes poetry, critical and philosophical essays on poetry,
debates and visual art in every issue. It aims to offer an evolving
map of what is most important and vibrant in the current poetic
process throughout the English-speaking world, with occasional detours
into other lands. Fulcrum publishes poetic and critical
work of the highest quality from all regions populated by the English
language and generates a global cross-talk on vital issues among
poets, critics, philosophers, artists, psychologists and other humanists.
The annual strives to act as the hub of the global social network that is poetry, and thereby to enrich the diversity, flexibility, and aesthetic and communicative capabilities of English. The idea of Fulcrum was born out of the realization that the hardest thing for literary artists is to keep on speaking terms with each other. Contemporary English-language poetry does not yet know itself well. Genuinely international, broadminded anthologies remain in short supply. Fulcrum welcomes poetry marked by all kinds of local accents, in a variety of forms, registers and dialects.
Much of the available plethora of
aesthetic discourse by poets today is resignedly tautologous, speaking
as it does to the converted and the like-minded. It typically originates
in what are known as “the poetry camps”—institutionalized
mutual admiration societies sharply circumscribed by their narrow
political and aesthetic agendas. Fulcrum’s goal,
by contrast, is to produce intelligent sparks through the twining
of differently charged wires. Poetry—the total poetic energy
of our language transmitted through its finest practitioners—will
benefit from a greater self-knowledge gained from genuine conversations
across geographical and aesthetic space.

Disney’s shift to streaming is officially underway with this week’s launch of Disney+ along with its flagship show, the Star Wars series “The Mandalorian.”
On the latest episode of the Original Content podcast, we discuss our initial reactions to the new streaming service.
Responses - Anthony - Breadth - Library - Disney
It turns out that we had fairly different responses: Anthony was impressed by the breadth of the content library (nearly every Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars film, along with 30 seasons of “The Simpsons”), while Darrell was more interested in the original content. Jordan, meanwhile, found herself initially excited about the library, only to wonder how much time she really needs to spend watching her childhood favorites.
As for that original content, we also have a spoiler-free review of “The Mandalorian.” Disney is releasing...

Data Extraction Libraries
What are Data Extraction Libraries?
The process of gathering pertinent information from studies that you have determined are eligible for your review and organizing it in a way that will enable you to synthesize the research and reach conclusions is known as data extraction. While software libraries or frameworks are known as "data extraction libraries" offer functionality for extracting structured data from a variety of sources, including web pages, databases, documents, or APIs. Developers may concentrate on the data extraction logic rather than low-level parsing or data handling thanks to data extraction libraries, which make it easier to extract specific information from complicated data sources.

PENNHURST GHOSTS OF MAYFLOWER II
READER'S FAVORITE BOOK REVIEW * * * * *
Reviewed by Melinda Hills for Readers' Favorite
Even the most die-hard nonbeliever would have to admit there is something strange going on at the former Pennhurst State School and Hospital. Pennhurst Ghosts of Mayflower II by Tamera Lawrence relates the author’s personal experiences as a guide in the Mayflower building during the annual Pennhurst Halloween Haunt. During her time in the Pennhurst complex, Ms. Lawrence not only sees and feels strange phenomena herself, but also deals with guests of all ages and backgrounds who experience a wide range of encounters themselves.
Although relatively short, Pennhurst Ghosts of Mayflower II chronicles seven weeks of the Haunt, describing in clear and vivid detail the sightings and physical encounters experienced by the author, other employees, and the guests. Ms. Lawrence also provides interesting background material about the facility, its original purpose and some of the residents, as well as first-hand comments from former employees regarding the treatment of people and the use of certain areas. You can just imagine the thrill of seeing the ball move in the art room or the airplane that had been a popular toy, and even the terror of having your hair pulled or ghostly fingers caressing your skin.
Pennhurst Ghosts of Mayflower II is a great introduction to exploring haunted buildings and especially as a guide for anyone interested in visiting the actual Pennhurst site. Tamera Lawrence’s personal touch makes it quite real, even for those who prefer to stay in the safety of their home and read about such adventures. Join Ms. Lawrence and the thousands of brave souls who have visited what is said to be one of the most active haunted sites in Pennsylvania and test the boundaries of your belief!

Elmo, Dorothy and Books I love
A quick post to show you my finished Elmo and his pet goldfish Dorothy on her stand for a student of mine. She wanted one done for her son's first birthday and I am very pleased with how it has turned out. I added tylose to my fondant to make it stronger and dry hard. I also textured Elmo's fur using a Wilton tip 233. You can pipe fur using this tip too if you wish but since it was going to be moved around, I thought it was safer to texture it. Didn't want Elmo losing his fur when he was moved! Unfortunately, (as seems to be always the case), I forgot to take any photos of the process, but I will try to do a tutorial to show you how I did Elmo.
Thinking about how I started off with my first figurine, which was little Harry Potter (see post here), I have learned a lot along the way. I get lots of useful information through Youtube and the web, but also through books. One book that I have found really useful for stand-up fondant figures in particular is Squires Kitchen's Guide to making Sugar Figures by Jan Clement-May. In this book, she shows you the basics of figure modelling before going on to more complex figures. The book is divided into chapters for Occupations (like builder, nurse and fireman), Hobbies (like horse rider, ballerina and footballer) and Celebrations (like Santa, bride and groom). A very useful book to read if you want to progress in making stand-up figures. If you are keen on making fondant animals, another book I love is 100 Fondant Animals for Cake Decorators by Helen Penman. Her animals are easy to do and look cute too (which is sooo important)! I made this cute little zebra for an upcoming cake with her book.
If you'd like more details on these and other books that I read and love, you can find them on my blog through the Amazon link. If you have any questions or comments, I'd love to hear from you. Happy decorating! :)

Last night, a few of us had an interesting discussion of G. K. Chesterton's The Man Who Was Thursday. All of us came to the discussion with basically the same question...what in the world happened at the end of the book? Re-reading the last chapter, we came to the conclusion that the key not only to understanding that chapter but the entire book came in Sunday's words to the council.
"I am the Sabbath," said the other [Sunday] without moving. "I am the peace of God."-Man Who Was Thursday Ch. 15
The entire book hinges on Sunday, who he is, what he is in this strange nightmare. Perhaps...Sunday is life. Sunday is both rest and peace, and chaos and hell. Both extremes, sorrow and darkness, and joy and light, residing in one entity.
Life is like that...the same hand that gives us hell, gives us rest as well. We experience pain and loss, but then we experience love and restoration.
Is Sunday life? Think about it.
Some other questions that I and others have come up with that I'd be interesting in exploring.
1) When does this story start and stop becoming a nightmare?
2) What is a mask that reveals?
3) Is Rosamund real life? Who/what is she truly?
4) What significance do colours play in the story?
Under the mercy,


Running the Coast: 1000 Miles with the Striped Bass Migration is a new film from filmmaker Jamie Howard. What started out as seasonal plan to film anglers intercepting striped bass quickly morphed into a multi-year journey from the Chesapeake Bay to Maine. This film captures the world's largest migration in all conditions and every method used to catch these fish.
The DVD contains the three part mini-series all on one disc, capturing the 5 year process. Whether you fish the shallows of Rhode Island or the famous blitzes off Montauk or even further down the coast, see the striped bass as never before.

Happy Birthday William Prosser!
Last Monday would have been William Prosser's 112th birthday - a fact I would not have remembered had it not been for my friends at the TortsProf Blog! As everyone knows, his influence on Tort law in the United States was invaluable and the textbook inspired by his own original one is still one of the most popular ones (if not the most popular one) in American law schools. In honor of the ocassion, I am copying an entry I posted here last year: Have you ever wondered what it would have been like to have had Prosser as your Torts professor? Well, now you can get a little bit of a sense of what it would have been like... Professor Chris Robinette from Widener Univ. School of Law had a student recently whose grandfather had Prosser for Torts at the University of Minnesota Law School in 1938-39. The student had his grandfather's notebook for the class, which Prosser taught while working on his hornbook now known as "Prosser on Torts." Interestingly, the student's grandfather, Leroy S. Merrifield, went on to became a Torts law professor himself at George Washington University Law School. Prof. Robinette studied the notebook and wrote a law review article about it. The article, The Prosser Notebook: Classroom as Biography and Intellectual History, is available through the Social Science Research Network (SSRN). You can access it here. As he points out, "the notebook provides the thoughts of an eminent torts scholar, in the process of creating arguably the most influential hornbook on torts, as channeled by a student who would go on to become a Torts professor." And now, the good news: we all have the unique opportunity to see the actual notebook! Thanks to the magic of digital photography and the work of Berkeley law archivist William Benemann, the notebook is now available online here. Go there, check it out and spend some time reading a piece of Tort law education history.

On July 10, 2019, the City held its first GPAC meeting. The purpose of this meeting was to introduce the GPAC to the General Plan process and begin initial GPAC feedback regarding issues and opportunities that should be addressed as part of the Update. Some of the initial issues the GPAC felt should be addressed included traffic congestion, housing availability and affordability, access to city amenities and transit, homelessness, sustainability and resiliency, and economic development. Several initial opportunities the GPAC felt the General Plan should capitalize on included Pleasant Hill’s civic minded and engaged community members, opportunities to embrace new innovations in sustainable practices and technology, building upon city amenities (such as parks and open space) as well as the future Pleasant Hill Library, further collaboration with the school district and Diablo Valley College, and continuing coordination with regional agencies and entities.
This is the first in a series of GPAC Meetings where the GPAC will make General Plan recommendations o the Planning Commission and City Council regarding the Vision, Guiding Principles, Alternatives, and Policy Development based on community feedback and input. The next step for the GPAC is to convene in August to review community input from the a pop-up booth at the Summer Concerts by the Lake on August 4, 2019.
If you have any questions regarding the process and overall Update program, please contact Troy Fujimoto with the Planning Division at


Mr & Mrs Gren was published in 2011 as part of a short residency at The Exchange Gallery. The book was hand printed and bound by us in a pop up studio in the gallery space, where visitors were able to watch the various processes involved and talk to us about the project, our concepts and methods.
Based on a mnemonic (m.r.s.g.r.e.n.) we used at school for remembering the defining features of 'living things', the book is a combined scientific and poetic exploration of what it is to be alive, and what it is to feel alive. Across two chapters, Walter and Vivienne meet and fall in love. The narrative connects their shared life, equally reflecting the nuances that make each individual, and contemplates the specific traits that fulfil us as living things.
The book is silkscreen and letterpress printed in an edition of 40 on heavyweight cartridge paper, has a grey cloth cover and silver fastener with a grey slip.

Sawney Payne (1854-1922) and his wife Cora Gatewood Lewis (1865-1951) practiced a legacy of earnest work, educated minds and civic mindfulness that continued for over 120 years.
Payne was born in Louisa County, VA in 1854 to Joseph and Grace Payne. The 1870 Census records list him as not being able to read or write and working as a farm laborer. However, Sawney was a man on the move!
In the 15 years since the passing of the 13th Amendment (1865) abolishing the institution of slavery, Payne’s status had changed dramatically. The 1880 Census reported the 26-year-old as working for the railroad as well as having the ability to read and write.
Armed with his freedom and aspirations for a better life, Sawney Payne left the place of his birth heading north presumably in search of improved employment and the prospects of a suitable bride.
Culpeper became home; perhaps influenced by finding that one special woman. Sawney Payne, at age 31, and Cora Gatewood Lewis, a 20-year-old from Culpeper, married in 1885.
During the late 1800s, sustainable work for a young Black man in Culpeper County was a scarcity. Payne would often be away from home for weeks finding employment in areas to the north. His great- granddaughter, Angela Chapman, remembers her grandmother telling how her father hated being away from the family and putting the burden of child rearing solely on the shoulders of Cora.
After ten years, Payne had saved a small amount of money and he and Cora made a life-changing decision: Payne would open his own business as a licensed barber, and they would buy a house within walking distance of the shop.
Black ownership of real property within only a few decades after the end of slavery was not the norm; however, in 1895, with the support of Rev. Willis Madden and the congregation at Antioch Baptist Church, the Payne’s went into debt for $171 and purchased the house at 121 West Slaughter Street (now West Piedmont St).
From 1900 to 1940, the Paynes would be the sole African American family on the block. “The neighborhood children would play in our backyard and grandmother’s only rule was that everyone got along. If they did not, she sent them home,” remembered Angela Chapman.
Having paid off their debt by 1900 and with a house full of children plus an in-law or two it was time to build an addition. A substantial L wing was constructed circa 1910 that included an eat-in kitchen, parlor, foyer with new staircase and two bedrooms on the second floor bringing the total bedrooms to four.
The well- landscaped yard, enclosed with a white picket fence, included a small barn for livestock and hay storage, fruit trees, and a vegetable garden. The house was wrapped on two sides with a covered porch that enjoyed Cora Payne’s green thumb.
The Paynes exemplary citizens and demanded the same of their children. All were members of Antioch Baptist Church; the five sons each became licensed barbers, and the two girls, Lillian, and Annie, were sent to college to become teachers. You may remember N. Gordon Payne owner of the large house and small barber shop next to Antioch Church (in Sugar Bottom), Annie Payne Lovell who taught Culpeper’ students for forty (40) plus year, grandsons Henry Gordon “Ace” Payne also a barber and a civic leader, and Jimmy Payne of Jimmy’s Shoe Shop. The relationship with the Culpeper community continued for 120 years punctuated by the family’s dedication to education, civic mindfulness, and a strong work ethic.

There are certain times of the year that the press refer to as "The Silly Season". A time when hard and fast news is thin on the ground and the silliness factor comes into play.
What kind of stories you may ask get printed in the silly season? Well, to be honest stories about cat's that can play the harmonica, stories about how someone returned a library book 53 years after they'd taken it out from the library, and stories about a man marrying a goat or something?
But the best stories are the ones that involve free energy. Over the years there have been many and it is no wonder the press and indeed public treat them with contempt.
However, every now and then something comes along that defies logic. Orbo for example.
Count on this my friends, the press will at this stage fail to realise with confidence that the free energy claims are indeed true and we are dealing with the biggest story in recent history. There will be a middle-of-the-road cautious approach taken to presenting the story as factual.
Top marks will go to any newspaper or media that "beleive' in the story and treat it with any seriousness.
I'm guessing the BBC won't touch it with a barge poll, since they always like to play it safe, but this story is a tabloid winner, and let's be honest the biggest selling newspapers are tabloids.
Incidentally, rather bizzarely the best previous coverage was from none other than (you'll choke on your coffee when you hear this) FOX News!!!
Neil Cavuto did a fantastic job of interviewing Sean and FOX treated the story with surprising seriousness. Now maybe it was the producer's day off or he had to go to an Illuminati meeting or something, but it's true - FOX done good.
Let's hope they all realise that this IS the scoop of the millenium.

About: Jack Myers - Class of 1942
Quincy native completes third book The Co-Pilots Demons
Quincy native Jack Myers has become a prolific author in his retirement years.
Myers, 85, recently completed his third book, "The Co-Pilot's Demons," a fictional work set in World War II.
The book tells the story of a young co-pilot who joined the Army Air Corps after Pearl Harbor with great doubts about his courage. The man's father had proven to be a coward in World War I and carried guilt the rest of his life, transferring those feelings to the son by verbally abusing him.
After the son became a co-pilot on a B-17 stationed in Italy, he flew his missions under a constant cloud of fear that he, too, would prove to be a coward as his father had predicted. The son's moment of truth came one day when his plane literally fell apart and crash landed. The son ends up saving the day, proving he was not a coward after all.
Myers, who served as a bombardier on a B-17, flew 35 missions over Germany, Austria, Hungary, Rumania, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Yugoslavia and Poland during World War II. He knows first-hand the terrifying fears many veterans faced during the war, but most wouldn't even let their best buddies know they were scared to death.
"Instead, they cloaked their insecurities in a devil-may-care attitude to hide their fears from them," Myers said.
Now, many years later, Myers said many veterans are finally able to confront their demons from the past.
That's one reason Myers wrote the book. He wanted World War II veterans -- and veteran from today's wars -- to know it's OK to talk about their fears.
"Those were different times, and we didn't talk much about them," he said. "Nowadays you read in the newspapers all the time about post-traumatic stress disorder. But it wasn't talked about in World War II. There was a stigma about it if you would admit to being uncomfortable about the war."
Myers recounted many of his own World War II experiences in his first book, "Shot At and Missed: Recollections of a World War II Bombardier," which came out in 2004.
Myers pulled no punches in that book. He described in detail what it was like to drop bombs on enemy targets from 30,000 feet while bullets and shrapnel filled their air around him.
"After I wrote 'Shot At and Missed,' I got calls from all over the country," Myers said. "Fellows who picked up my book would call me and we'd talk about things. A lot of these things came out how the war affected them and how it still affected them. They didn't tell their children about it or anyone else, but they talked to me about it. That's when I got the idea to write 'The Co-Pilot's Demons.' "
Myers feels it's important for World War II veterans to share their experiences with others because time is running out quickly on that aging generation, and many great stories are going untold.
"The World War II veterans are slipping away," he said. "They're going by the wayside about 1,500 a day."
In a 2004 interview with The Quincy Herald-Whig, Myers remarked wryly: "In a few more years there will only be me and four or five other guys left."
Myers was born in Barry but grew up in Quincy. His parents, Warren and Alta Myers, moved the family of seven children to Quincy when Myers was 4 years old. The family lived at 520 Monroe in the neighborhood known as Calftown.
In 2007, Myers authored his second book, "Calftown Boy," a collection of stories based in part on his experiences growing up in Quincy.
For example, Myers devoted one chapter of that book to his exploits with the South Side Boat Club's nationally acclaimed rowing teams in the late 1930s and early 1940s. Four-man and eight-man crews competed using racing shells -- long, narrow boats powered with oars. Myers served as coxswain. He'd sit in the stern with a megaphone, shouting the cadence for the burly oarsmen.
Myers' activity with the boat club was interrupted by his stint in the Army Air Corps. Myers joined hoping to become a B-17 pilot. But at 5-foot-3, he was an inch too short. So he became a bombardier instead.
After the war, Myers returned to Quincy for a time. He later landed jobs with insurance companies in Decatur and Springfield. Then in 1961 he moved to Oklahoma City and started his own company, Standard Business Supply.
Now retired, Myers lives on a 160-acre tract in Arcadia, Okla., that he shares with his wife, Regina, and some other family members.
Copies of Jack Myers' latest softcover book "The Co-Pilot's Demons" -- published by Ionic Press and priced at $14.95 -- are available online through amazon.com or through Barnes & amp; Noble. Autographed copies can be ordered by calling Myers at (405) 396-2898; sending e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.org; or by sending a check for $14.95 to Myers at 6000 N. Westminster, Arcadia, OK 73007. He will pay shipping costs for the book.

The demand for Python development services is ever-increasing, and rightfully so. Python is a powerful language that is highly versatile and has numerous use cases for diverse market needs. From software development to web app development to game development and more, Python can be leveraged to create reliable digital solutions.
Another significant sphere where Python is shining in the current times is Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. ML and AI are cutting-edge technologies that are highly prevalent due to their terrific data analysis and data processing capabilities.
Today, businesses truly understand the value of data. As a result, they want resources for their enterprise that can dig deep into the data and derive valuable information from it. Here is where AI and ML apps come into play and help process the data in-depth.
The generated insights help lower production costs, increase productivity, and enhance business efficiency. Not many people know, but these AI and ML apps work because they are powered and backed by various Python libraries.
Hence, in this blog, we will explore various Python libraries that power ML and AI apps and help them bring a substantial difference to several industries.
Python libraries are the collection of precompiled codes built for specific, well-defined operations in a program. These codes are usually developed for general operations of a program that stays the same in various applications such as login pages, calendar features, social media integrations, etc.
Apart from the pre-compiled codes, Python libraries also consist of configuration data, templates, documentation, classes, values, etc. This collection of bundled codes makes programming convenient and simpler for the developer as they can skip creating similar functions that serve the same purpose time and again. Python libraries are extremely beneficial in bringing success to almost all Python development services.
Different Python development companies leverage different ways to link libraries with Python programs, depending on their software platform. For instance, in the MS Windows environment, Python libraries have a DLL extension (Dynamic Load Libraries) that is used to link the program to the AI Python library.
When the program is executed, the linker automatically looks for the library extension and further extracts the functionalities of that particular library to get the program working. However complex your program may be, Python libraries provide a great way to ease the development process for developers.
Read the Guide to Hire Python Developers for Enhanced Development Experience
You must be wondering, there are countless programming languages, but why do businesses only hire Python developers to build apps for ML and AI programs? The following reasons will help you comprehend why it is so:
Python is based on OOPs (object-oriented programming language) concepts. It means that it is extensible and can use several repositories and libraries. Apart from that, Python consists of numerous automation and interaction tools that make it powerful and functional to create intelligent automation tasks.
One of the reasons everyone wants to hire Python developers and the surging demand for the language is the availability of thousands of Python libraries.
You can find a Python library for almost every existing problem on the planet, making your program development swifter, and easier, and ensuring smooth program implementation and integration.
Python is an open-source language readily available to anyone who wants to learn it. Moreover, natural language processing offers easy readability and has a simple syntax structure that beginners can easily understand.
Being an easy and effective language to learn, it is preferred by a vast number of application developers worldwide.
Python is one of the top-growing languages in the world. Not only Python developers but Python development services globally have quadrupled in the recent few years.
This surge in the number of Python developers has extended the support for the extensive Python community, which is always active and eager to work on new problems and use Python to better the digital world and businesses.

Our Incredible Portfolio Across Various Industry Verticals


This book addresses the most serious internal issue in the African American community, the generation gap. the generation gap has emerged as the tip of an iceberg that threatens the intergenerational cultural continuity of the Black community, because o the growing gap between the young and old.
This book clearly explains the cause of the generation gap and it offers concrete solutions for bridging the generation gap. Powerful, hostile external forces that have attached the African American community since 1968 have caused the Black generation gap. These host external forces include the removal of blue-collar industrial jobs from Black communities and from the United States. The loss of large numbers of blue-collar jobs is the primary reason why the African American family has eroded more between 1619-1968. Drugs have been placed in Black communities at a time when blue collar jobs dried up, making the drug economy a powerful hostile force sapping the strength of African American cultural values. with the weakening of the Black family peer grouse have begun to supplant the extended family community as a socialization force for our youth. The corporatization of the United States and of the world has promoted a shift in thinking away from highly moral values, to a vulgar, individualistic, materialist culture, where bling-bling has come to mean more than human life for too many people. Powerful external forces have worked to produce " A Choice Between Two Cultures." (T'Shaka) Today most Black neighborhoods are not communities.
What this book offers is a way out of the generation gap, and a way out of the male female relationships gap and the historical amnesia gap. That way is African and African American culture, one of only two indigenous cultures to the United States. This book is prescription for action centering upon us drawing from our rich and beautiful culture to heal the division in our communities, and to build a mighty and just people.

Lesson 9 : Read, Read, READ !
“My alma mater was books, a good library.... I could spend the rest of my life reading, just satisfying my curiosity.”
“People don't realize how a man's whole life can be changed by one book.”
- Malcolm X
Here we are in 2017, on the cutting edge of the “Information Age”. Gathering knowledge on how to sauté a steak, Apple Inc. current stock price, and how long the average lion sleeps per day can all be retrieved within the matter of seconds. But what does it really mean? Reading is certainly one of the best ways to equip yourself for success in this world. Life after graduation is just like school. Your professor is Dr. Life now, and your professor may not require it, but recommends that you read so that by the time class lecture is held, you are more likely to engage in meaningful conversation and notice subtle things which you were previously unaware of.
- Find a genre, person , subject which interest you to read
- Your vocabulary, creativity, and overall thoughts are heightened.
- Find a balance between quick reads (articles), and longer writings (books of 250+ pages i.e)
My 2016 Reading List Consisted of Primarily Autobiographies, Philosophy/History, and Non-Fiction Books. Below are several of selections which I found rewarding. Looking forward to different genres in 2017.


Night by Night by Jack Jordan
'If you're reading this, I'm dead.'
Rejected by her family and plagued by insomnia, Rose Shaw is on the brink. But one dark evening she collides with a man running through the streets, who quickly vanishes. The only sign he ever existed - a journal dropped at Rose's feet.
She begins to obsessively dedicate her sleepless nights to discovering what happened to Finn Matthews, the mysterious author of the journal. Why was he convinced someone wanted to kill him? And why, in the midst of a string of murders, won't the police investigate his disappearance?
Rose is determined to uncover the truth. But she has no idea what the truth will cost her...
Release date: 2nd May 2019
What I thought
Night by Night is a heart-breaking, heart-stopping read that I couldn’t put down! 5 STARS!
The story follows the life of Rose whose world has spiralled out of control after developing chronic insomnia. From the very first line I was immediately drawn to Rose and her challenges. Here is a woman who had her life together and everything she wanted, only to find it all destroyed by her inability to sleep.
What I loved about this book is how the author held nothing back. It was incredibly raw and emotionally charged, but entwined within this portrayal of a woman at rock bottom is also an AMAZING thriller of a story that had me wondering if the society I live in is as open-minded as I would like to believe it is.
I could not turn the pages fast enough!!
My thanks to the author, Corvus and NetGalley for the advanced copy.

"I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same..."
from the Oath of Allegiance
Every American citizen should have some familiarity with the Constitution. After all, it’s the supreme law of the land and gives us all our fundamental rights as human beings and as Americans. Even if you just become familiar with the Bill of Rights (the first ten amendments) you will gain some insight into the power this document has in shaping our government, our laws, and our own lives. The principles of equality, individual rights, fairness, due process, and democracy are inscribed in our great Constitution.
We, at newcitizen.us, want to make sure you have both easy access to and complete, comprehensive information on our Constitution. To this end we have listed, what we believe, are the five most important websites related to the Constitution. We suggest you review all five and bookmark your favorites:
The Constitution, Analysis and Interpretation
FindLaw, U.S. Constitution with Annotations
The United States Constitution Online National Constitution Center
National Center for Constitutional Studies
We are a country of laws. There are hundreds of thousands if not millions of laws at the federal, state, county, and local levels. America has more lawyers per person than any other country in the world—no wonder, we have all these laws to deal with!
One of the wonderful and empowering abilities of the internet is that many of these laws are now made available to you, the ordinary citizen, without having to visit a law library or ask a lawyer. The old adage that “ignorance of the law is no excuse” is starting to gain some credibility again with the evolution of the internet.
We are limiting are discussion to federal laws, but we encourage you to visit the websites of your state and local governments so you can also bookmark their legal websites.
Laws Versus Regulations
What you need to understand about United States law is that there are laws, and there are regulations.
Laws are passed by the legislative branch, Congress, and signed into law by the President. All the laws that Congress passes and the President signs become slip laws initially and are published in the Federal Register. More importantly, all the laws that are passed eventually end up in the United States Code (USC). The USC is a collection of all the general and permanent laws of the United States. This makes it relatively easy for us non-lawyer types to find all federal laws because the USC offers one-stop shopping.
Regulations are the executive branch’s interpretation and implementation of federal laws. They are written by the various federal government agencies like the USCIS, State Department, and Treasury Department. Regulations are not laws. Violating a regulation does not necessarily mean mean you are violating a law. Regulations when they are first written are also found in the Federal Register. Eventually, all regulations make their way into the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) which is one-stop shopping when it comes to federal regulations.
For each law found in the United States Code, there is usually (but not always) a corresponding regulation found in the Code of Federal Regualations. So if you are searching for a law in the USC, make sure you also look for the corresponding regulation in the CFR and vice versa.
Now that you understand the difference between laws and regulations, the websites for the United States Code, the Federal Register, and the Code of Federal Regulations will make a little more sense.

How Ours Laws are Made This is an excellent summary of the legislative process, which would be of interest to any inquiring citizen or aspiring political activist.


Braving the Wilderness by Brene' Brown.
True belonging requires us to believe in and belong to ourselves so fully that we can find sacredness in both being a part of something, and standing alone when necessary. But in a culture that’s rife with perfectionism and pleasing, and with the erosion of civility, it’s easy to stay quiet, hide in our ideological bunkers, or fit in rather than show up as our true selves and brave the wilderness of uncertainty and criticism.
The wilderness is an untamed, unpredictable place of solitude and searching. It is a place as dangerous as it is breathtaking, a place as sought after as it is feared. But it turns out to be the place of true belonging, and it’s the bravest and most sacred place you will ever stand.
