How Does It Feel ...
Some people may wonder what it feels like to launch a new book. This particular debut was filled with feelings not previously experienced with my five psychoanalytic publications. Of course, it’s not that my clinical books lacked personal revelations. In fact, I candidly shared my failures as well as my achievements throughout those academic volumes, as I did in my published papers.
This sharing was an effort to teach colleagues and students through my own experiences since, although each patient and therapist have a unique therapeutic relationship, much can be learned from the mistakes and successes of others and may prove useful at some point in the future. I must confess that I too benefitted from my own thinking in retrospect and reflecting on the past.Now that I look back, my psychoanalytic compositions were indeed a type of memoir writing
However, my latest publication, "The Most Beautiful Place in the World, a Memoir of a Psychoanalyst and the Realization of a State of Mind”, is a true memoir in the literary sense. Although a memoir is novelistic with an unfolding story line or plot, and scenes intermixed with narrative and a story that unfolds. It differs from fiction because it is my story, not the story of someone I know or characters I’ve created for the page. I’m certainly no Proust, but the phenomenon of “involuntary memory” is clearly active in my memoir. Emotions and sensual experiences repeatedly bring back buried recollections and lend new meaning to past happenings as well as those events, places, people and experiences that took place in the four year spanning my decision to retire and the first three years that my husband and I lived “At Home and in Paris”.
The above quote from the famous French poet, Paul Valery, translates as follows:“The life of man is divided between two literary genres. One begins by writing his desires and ends by writing his Memoirs”. This quote fit me to a tee as I had always felt an intense desire to practice psychoanalysis. Now, in retirement and on the first day of the first Covid-19 confinement in France, I was provoked to began to write a memoir.
It felt then, as it feels now, that I was able to devote a year of my life, 6-8 hours per day, to this work of literature that was intended to be centered around just four short years of my life, laced with sudden, involuntary evocations of autobiographical memory. It included a full range of sensory and emotional expressions that dated back to my early childhood, skipped throughout my teens, into a complex adulthood, and on to what I now refer to as my eldership. Looking back, as I have done during those ten plus re-writes of the book, I feel as if the act of writing this memoir functioned as a third analysis for me. I feel much of significance was uncovered that hadn’t been in quite the same way as it was during the crafting of this tale. I gained many new realizations of a sudden and surprising nature, and I still feel as if I unearthed an altogether new layer of my psyche, a new understanding of events, people, and places in memories, both new and old. The most interesting realization for me was that the most beautiful place in the world, that for nearly 40 years I had thought was the city of Paris, turned out to be a state of mind, one that I was fortunate enough to discover during what otherwise might have been some very dark and unpredictable days.
The memoir began with a nightmare within a nightmare. As I wrote in the prologue, "It was originally intended to tell the unlikely story of an American psychoanalyst who retires from her private practice in Los Angeles and moves to Paris, something everyone says that nobody does”. However, it was as if my hands were placed on a ouija board rather than a computer keyboard, as the mysterious forces of my unconscious "linked everything since my retirement to...the past, and in any order it [damn well] pleased...interrupting the flow of my intended story” and leaving something that was meant to be linear in a crazy mixed up maze of past and present that bit by bit began to appear like a work of art. When I started to write, I could only be certain that I had no intention of going beyond the end of the year 2019, diving into the murky waters of the terrible, unthinkable pandemic that threatened humankind and still threatens to change all life as we know it going forward. Whether in a state of fear or one of scientific curiosity, I felt then as I feel now that we have no choice but to learn to accept the unacceptable and to expand our imaginations in order to make way for the unimaginable.
As of launch day June 1st, I have many feelings about the final publication of my memoir. I am joyful to have finished a 326 page book, half again as substantial as each of my previous five volumes; I am proud to have been able to manage my distress and my fear of the unknown through engaging in a creative endeavor; I am hopeful that the product of that endeavor will be an interested readership who will find inspiration amongst the stories of my own transformations; And finally, I am content in the knowledge that I am still able to contribute productively to society in some small way.


What is a .VELLUM file?
A .VELLUM file is the native file format for VELLUM, a book formatting software specifically designed for creating ebooks and print-ready books. It's a proprietary format that stores book content, layout, and formatting information in a structured manner.

Key characteristics of .VELLUM files:
Book Content and Layout: .VELLUM files store the actual text content of the book, including chapters, sections, and headings. They also contain information about the book's layout, such as margins, page numbers, and headers/footers.
Formatting Information: .VELLUM files embed formatting instructions for the book's text, such as font styles, sizes, and colors. This ensures consistent formatting throughout the book and across different platforms.
Ebook and Print-Ready Formats: VELLUM can export .VELLUM files into various ebook formats, such as EPUB, MOBI, and KF8, making them compatible with various ebook readers and platforms. Additionally, .VELLUM files can be converted into print-ready PDF files for physical book printing.

Detroit has some interesting bike history due in part to the strong connection between bicycles and early automobile manufacturing.
One interesting connection is the Dodge Brothers Company, second only to Ford in car sales during the 1920s and now a brand of the Chrysler Corporation.
But before the Dodge Brothers made cars, they made bicycles.
From the book, The City of Detroit, Michigan, 1701-1922 by Clarence Monroe Burton, William Stocking, Gordon K. Miller:
The Dodge motor car stands as a tribute to the work of two brothers – John F. and Horace E. Dodge. As young men they learned the machinist’s trade in their father’s shop at Niles, Michigan, which was their home town.
In 1894 they went to Windsor, Ontario, where they became machinists for the Dominion Typograph Company. Their ability to produce excellent machine work and tools brought them to the attention of Fred S. Evans, a Detroit manufacturer.
About this time the brothers invented the first ball bearing bicycle, and after this accomplishment they joined Mr. Evans in organizing the Evans & Dodge Bicycle Company in 1897 and leased the plant of the Dominion Typograph Company at Windsor, carried on the business for two years, then sold out to a Canadian bicycle concern.
With their plant equipment, the machinery and the cash received in the deal, they came to Detroit and in 1901 opened a machine shop in the Boydell Building on Beaubien Street.
When, in 1903, Henry Ford began the manufacture of his motor car, he asked the Dodge brothers to undertake the manufacture of engines, transmissions and steering gears in quantity production. This they did and so rapidly did their business grow in connection with the development of the Ford car, that when they abandoned the Hastings Street plant in 1910 it was the largest and best equipped machine plant in Detroit.

Years of accumulated knowledge, gained experience, and the search for effective solutions inspired the transformation of this book into a groundbreaking work.
The Business of Poker is more than just an ordinary textbook. It has become part of Brazilian poker history. Written by one of the protagonists of this development, the book offers a comprehensive approach covering everything from legal issues and licensing to assembling a qualified team and sourcing specific materials. Plus, the book covers management techniques, a marketing plan, and everything you need to know to succeed in the poker industry.


Michelle Obama's senior year thesis at Princeton University, obtained from the campaign by Politico, shows a document written by a young woman grappling with a society in which a black Princeton alumnus might only be allowed to remain "on the periphery." Read the full thesis here: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4.
"My experiences at Princeton have made me far more aware of my 'blackness' than ever before," the future Mrs. Obama wrote in her thesis introduction. "I have found that at Princeton, no matter how liberal and open-minded some of my white professors and classmates try to be toward me, I sometimes feel like a visitor on campus; as if I really don't belong. Regardless of the circumstances underwhich I interact with whites at Princeton, it often seems as if, to them, I will always be black first and a student second."
Story Continued Below
The thesis, titled "Princeton-Educated Blacks and the Black Community" and written under her maiden name, Michelle LaVaughn Robinson, in 1985, has been the subject of much conjecture on the blogosphere and elsewhere in recent weeks, as it has been "temporarily withdrawn" from Princeton's library until after this year's presidential election in November. Some of the material has been written about previously, however, including a story last year in the Newark Star Ledger.
Obama writes that the path she chose by attending Princeton would likely lead to her "further integration and/or assimilation into a white cultural and social structure that will only allow me to remain on the periphery of society; never becoming a full participant."
During a presidential contest in which the term "transparency" has been frequently bandied about, candidates have buried a number of potentially revealing documents and papers. In Hillary Rodham Clinton's case, there's been a clamoring for tax records, White House memos and other material the candidate's team has chosen to keep from release. The 96-page Princeton thesis, restricted from release by the school's Mudd Library, has also been the subject of recent scrutiny.
Earlier this week, commentator Jonah Goldberg remarked on National Review Online, "A reader in the know informs me that Michelle Obama's thesis ... is unavailable until Nov. 5, 2008, at the Princeton library. I wonder why."
"Why a restricted thesis?" asked blogger-pastor Louis Lapides on his site Thinking Outside the Blog. "Is the concern based on what's in the thesis? Will Michelle Obama appear to be too black for white America or not black enough for black America?"
Attempts to retrieve the document through Princeton proved unsuccessful, with school librarians having been pestered so much for access to the thesis that they have resorted to reading from a script when callers inquire about it. Media officers at the prestigious university were similarly unhelpful, claiming it is "not unusual" for a thesis to be restricted and refusing to discuss "the academic work of alumni."

Michelle Obama thesis was on racial divide
By JEFFREY RESSNER
The latest report on Obama's missing thesis comes from MSNBC. Written his senior year at Columbia University, Obama's thesis was about Soviet nuclear disarmament. It's only natural to wonder what the budding socialist turned presidential candidate thought of nuclear proliferation in the early 1980s.
His former professor, Michael Baron, recalled in an interview with NBC News that Obama easily aced the year-long class. Baron described the paper as a "thesis" or "senior thesis" in several interviews, and said that Obama spent a year working on it. Baron recalls that the topic was nuclear negotiations with the Soviet Union. "My recollection is that the paper was an analysis of the evolution of the arms reduction negotiations between the Soviet Union and the United States," Baron said in an e-mail. "At that time, a hot topic in foreign policy circles was finding a way in which each country could safely reduce the large arsenal of nuclear weapons pointed at the other â€¦ For U.S. policy makers in both political parties, the aim was not disarmament, but achieving deep reductions in the Soviet nuclear arsenal and keeping a substantial and permanent American advantage. As I remember it, the paper was about those negotiations, their tactics and chances for success. Barack got an A."What MSNBC doesn't report is that Baron, or at least a Michael Baron who also happens to run an electronics company in Florida, has given $1,250 to Obama. Maybe if the Obama campaign would release the thesis and Obama's college transcript like a normal presidential campaign, we could all decide for ourselves whether Obama deserves an A.


You will read two (2) books this summer. One is a required book and one is a free choice book.
The required book assigned by your Language Arts teacher is:
Students will be TESTED on this book during the first week of school!
Each student will also read a book of their choice that
Students may NOT choose a graphic novel unless it has been included on the lists of suggested titles. See links at the bottom of this page.
All students will do one of the projects described on the 6th Grade Projects page related to their free choice book.
This year, the middle school / high school library will be making summer loans of reading materials to reregistered students. We have a wide selection of fiction and true life stories, and students entering grades 6 through 8 are welcome to borrow their free choice summer reading books from our library.
The titles on the suggested reading lists have been approved by our Language Arts teachers for 6th grade free choice summer reading. Each book is linked to its Amazon page. Just click on an image to read a summary of the book on Amazon. In most instances, you will also be able to look inside the book and read a few pages. Once you decide on a book, stop into the school library and check out a copy. We hope this will help you select summer reading books that you will enjoy!
A word about reading levels: Our Language Arts teachers have required that your free-choice reading selection be written at your reading level. To assist you in making appropriate selections, we have placed the Lexile measure below the title of each book where it is available. The Lexile measure is a guide to the overall text complexity, and thus reading level, of a text. It takes into account such factors as the vocabulary used and sentence length.
Grade 6 falls into the 850-1050 Lexile range. The Lexile level of works of fiction is generally lower than that of nonfiction.
The Lexile measure is not a measure of age-appropriateness. All of the books on this list are appropriate for students in grades 6-8. If you would like to learn more about Lexile measures, here are three short videos:
the fine print: Summer loans are reserved for students who are registered for the fall semester, are domiciled in the U.S., and have no outstanding obligations to the middle school / high school library. All books will be due back in the library during the first week of school in September. Lost or damaged books will be the responsibility of the student.

A Passion For Leadership
This book by Cam Marston (a speaker and researcher on generational trends with a focus in financial services) examines how to apply some of the research on the three biggest generations (Baby Boomers, Gen X, and Gen Y) in the context of financial advisory firms.
Descripción del producto
While many books on generations and demographics just talk about broad differences across the generations, Marston’s book focuses in much greater detail on how the concepts can be applied; for instance, Boomers prefer that you tell the story of where you and your firm came from, and prefer tried-and-true well-established businesses and brands, while X’ers are much less patient with background stories and want you to get to the point and be transparent, and Millennials demand instant communication and the latest technology but often prefer to work in groups (and it may be easier to meet with them if you invite them as a group!).


“American students aren’t afraid to ask questions,” Bella Wu, a visiting librarian from China's Northeast Normal University (NENU), replies to a question about the differences between students in the U.S. and China. “Chinese students work with one another to find answers. Our education systems have a lot to learn from one another.”
As a truly global university, GW has long recognized the importance of learning from other cultures and of bringing multiple viewpoints together to discuss and solve problems. GW Libraries and Academic Innovation (GWLAI) are in conversation with institutions all over the world, but the most robust is our partnership with NENU, located in Jilin Province of the People’s Republic of China. Although named a “normal” (teaching) university, NENU is a comprehensive public institution with a student body size equivalent to GW.
Chinese and U.S. academic research libraries share many challenges. Both are working to support students as creators, users, and informed consumers of information in all its forms. Chinese libraries have been very successful in using technology to promote information literacy and improve efficiency. American libraries are leaders in promoting and communicating services directly to students and in helping to build a community of self-regulated learners — students equipped to evaluate and control their own learning.


Books are truly treasures every one should look for. Good books are the lighthouses that enlighten our families, school and society. They soothe the spirit, educate the heart, improve characters, explore unknown lands, and lead us to wisdom piety and delight.

The Tobique Valley Genealogy and Local History Group of Plaster Rock, New Brunswick, Canada has much of interest to folks with connections to the Scotch Colony. Dedicated individuals have done the hard work of recording cemetary records and making the data available on their website.
Another nugget on the Tobique Valley website is a newspaper clipping which describes the beginnings of the Scotch Colony. The photograph of the article is very valuable and interesting reading. Here is the transcription which readers may find easier to read.
The Settling of the Scotch Colony
By Chris Allen
The settling of the Scotch Colony in Victoria County by families from Aberdeenshire and Kindardineshire, Scotland, was in large part an exercise in faith and personal fortitude. Most of those who emigrated to New Brunswick were fairly well educated and had skills and trades which provided the families with a decent livelihood, although by no means were they well off. The Scots people had cultural and family ties that went back hundreds of years, they were proud of their heritage and strongly united in religious beliefs.
At that time, in the late 19th century, life in Kincardineshire, as elsewhere, was lived at a much slower pace than in our modern day. People were secure in their social positions, and they knew what to expect from life. However, the aristocratic “lairds” (lords) in each parish owned all the property and most people had to work under the laird’s directions.
Working for the lairds also meant that people would never change their situation. But that was not a concern for people—it was just how life was—until the Scots became inspired by the idea of owning their own land and obtaining it for free in far away New Brunswick.
There was a lot to lose by their emigration to Canada, but they figured they could bring the good qualities of their Scottish culture and transplant it to a Scotch colony provided only people of good character partook in the emigration to New Brunswick.
Their way had been organized and prepared by a Captain William Brown of the Anchor Line of steamers from Stonehaven, Scotland. Capt. Brown had negotiated with the New Brunswick government for a block of land large enough for 50 families with provisions made to build roads, clear two acres of land and erect a cabin for each family who wanted one.
In April 1873, 545 Scots sailed from Glasgow, Scotland, on the steamer S. S. Castalia for Saint John. It was a difficult farewell for the people as they left family member, friends, and their secure way of life behind in Scotland. All they had to carry them into the unknown was their dreams of being masters of their own domain and their religious faith. By these, they would be guided safely through whatever was encountered.
The S. S. Castalia landed in Saint John in May after a rough voyage. The colonists embarked aboard smaller boats to sail up the St. John River to Kilburn. The colonists discovered that there were no roads built or cabins prepared on the lots as has been negotiated by Capt. Brown with the provincial government. The woods were thick and still had more than a foot of snow on the ground, which made it difficult to move their baggage and supplies out to their new properties.
Most of the families tented in Kilburn or slept in granaries for the first three or four weeks, until paths were cleared and small cabins constructed on the lots.
The settlers were not used to the hard physical work such as chopping trees and dragging heavy logs for land clearing and construction projects.
The settlers were not used to the hard physical work such as chopping trees and dragging heavy logs for land clearing and construction projects. After six weeks of exhausting work, 30 of the settlers gave up and went to work in Woodstock, Fredericton, or Saint John.
The next three years was a trying time for the Scottish settlers. The climate was much harsher than what they were used to and consequently they lost much of their planted crops to bad weather. Their living conditions were primitive and there was much work to be done just to survive.
Many families were going into debt, were often hungry, and their clothes were down to rags. There were no jobs in the area for earning more money, and they had no doctor or minister to tend to their physical and spiritual needs.
At the time Rev. Peter Melville arrived in the Scotch colony in 1875, he found the settlers in a sorry state. People were depressed and apathetic, social tensions among groups threatened to break up the colony. Most families kept only to themselves and held private religious services at home, and taught only their own children. There was no longer the high idealism as before or the social cohesiveness they knew in Scotland when life was easier and their church was foremost in their culture.
However, Melville was a great leader and organizer. He quickly brought people out of their depression and apathy by encouraging them to organize schools, prayer meetings, Bible classes, and elect Elders and Deacons to the church. He got the settlers to actively participate in their community again. This, in conjunction with his religious services, helped revive the positive attitudes the settlers had enjoyed before in Scotland.
The Scottish colonists were remarkably strong to so quickly shed their apathy, forget about personal grievances, and come together again as a colony of Scotsmen. Life was still physically hard, but it improved each year through much hard work.
Under the guidance of Melville the settlers built four schools and their first “Kirk” (church). Schools were built in Bon Accord, Kincardine, Upper Kintore, and Kintore. The first kirk was built in Kincardine from lumber supplied from each district.
Melville left the Scotch colony in 1878, and various ministers periodically resided in the colony, supported by the Mission Board of the Presbyterian Church, as the colonists had no cash to pay the stipend for a regular minister.
Nearly 20 years of hard work passed before the colonists were established enough to provide the money for a permanent minister. In 1896, Rev. Gordon Pringle became the minister and his stipend was set at $500 per year.
Pringle served as minister for the Scotch colony for 58 years. He was well loved and respected for his untiring work for the settlers. Under his direction and energy the colony grew and prospered. Churches were built in the other districts, and people grew well enough off to have an active community life with Scottish dances, poetry and music sessions, Burn’s Night, St. Andrew’s Day, and more.
Their dreams of starting a Scotch colony in New Brunswick where people could enjoy the rewards of their labours on their own places eventually came true. Through continuous labour and despite desperate times, the settlers persevered to at last build a comfortable life style with their Scottish heritage and church foremost again in their lives.

I have been involved in our local MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) group for the past 3 years. I am so thankful for the friendship, support, and fellowship I have received.
This year, MOPS International posted on their Facebook looking for Mom Bloggers to review the theme book for next year. Although I have not been the most active blogger lately, I thought this would be a fun way to get back on the blog and share a great book with yall at the same time.
The book is Mom Connection: Creating Vibrant Relationships in the Midst of Motherhood by Tracey Bianchi.
I was able to read the book during my middle of the night feedings with my newborn...talk about a captive audience for the book and a mom needing to hear the message!
The back cover of the book states that the authors "shows us how to
- cultivate deeper friendships that challenge us to grow
- create healthy, life-giving rhythms for our families
- connect and give back to the wider world beyond our doors."
This book was a very easy, quick read. Each chapter had short sections that helped with the flow of the book. This was helpful because as I stated before I was reading while nursing, so I didn't feel like I had to finish a whole long chapter, I could just read a few sections at a time. Also, the author writes in a way that I feel like I am listening to a friend talk instead of reading a book. The author seems very "real," in a book about connections, I truly felt I could connect with the author and the ideas in each section.
The content of the book was very relevant to me as a mother of a 3 year old and a newborn. Many of the topics hit home in areas that I am working on. It was helpful to read that I am not alone in this pursuit and know that other moms have the same struggles and ideas.
Another really interesting part of the book is at the end of each chapter. Each chapter ends with "Five Mom-Tested Tips." The first three are tips to try to apply in our everyday life, the fourth is a prayer or blessing, and the fifth is something to journal about. I think this part of each chapter would be great for MOPS groups or MOPS Steering Teams to use as discussion starters and relationship builders. Also at the end of each chapter is an area to reflect on the ideas discussed. This is called "Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down." The author asks two questions that relate to the topic of the chapter. This is another excellent way to get our minds moving and discussion started. Again, I think it would be helpful for MOPS groups to use this in their meetings as well as the individual reader to reflect. Lastly, each chapter ends with resources to help the reader continue with the topic. The resources range from books to YouTube videos.
Are you a mother of a preschooler? Do you need to connect more to others? Would you like a copy of Mom Connection: Creating Vibrant Relationships in the Midst of Motherhood by Tracey Bianchi to read, encourage, and inspire you? MOPS International, Inc. sent me an extra copy to share with you. Please comment below by Sunday May 20. I will choose a name from the comments below as well as from my local MOPS Facebook group on Monday and announce the winner!
Disclaimer: MOPS International, Inc. gave me the opportunity to read and review this book by sending me a copy as well as a copy to share. All ideas and opinions expressed are my own. I don't know the author, but think I would like to after reading this book! :)

The emergence of novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19)1 and the subsequent pandemic present a unique challenge to neurologists managing patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and related neuroinflammatory disorders, such as neuromyelitis spectrum disorder (NMOSD).
National professional bodies (e.g., Italian Society of Neurology and Association of British Neurologists) and patient organizations (e.g., National MS Society, MS International Feder- ation, UK MS Society, and MS Australia) have responded rapidly by issuing guidelines for the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily focused on MS disease-modifying therapies (DMTs). In this commentary, we highlight the implications of COVID-19 for people with MS and related disorders, including the risk of respiratory infections, general health advice, and recom- mendations (from consensus-based guidelines) for immunotherapies, relapse management, and service delivery during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Millicent Garrett Fawcett is to get a statue outside parliament, the first woman to do so. Her achievements and documentations of the women’s suffrage period in the 19th and 20th centuries were compelling. The role she played in the suffragist movement were exemplary and monumental, but the eloquence in which she wrote about the history of the movement is perhaps what stands her out from the rest. Millicent Fawcett would be as proud of this achievement for the fight for equality as the many she saw and fought for throughout her life.
There have been many great women throughout history and the women’s suffrage movement had them in abundance. Nonetheless, Millicent Fawcett stands out from her peers and this statue will represent further progress in the continued fight for gender equality.
Early life and inspiration
Born to a family of Ironworkers, Fawcett’s father owned a pawnbroker in Whitechapel but they eventually moved after her uncle inherited her grandfather’s engineering works, Richard Garrett and Sons. She grew up in Suffolk, where the engineering works was based, then when she was 12, Millicent was sent to London with her sister, Elizabeth Garrett Anderson (first female doctor in Britain), to be educated at a Miss Browning’s private school in Blackheath, this is where she was inspired by MP John Stuart Mill, an early advocate of women’s suffrage.
She spent much of her time in London and met radical MP John Stuart Mill, whom she admired for is practical utilitarianism support of women’s rights rather than abstract principles, along with her eventual husband, Liberal MP, reformer, and professor of economics at Cambridge University, Henry Fawcett. Throughout her life she became a key figure in women’s suffrage even though her primary focus was improving women’s education opportunities and in 1871 co-founded Newham College in Cambridge.
Tireless and passionate
Millicent was a tireless campaigner who took a moderate line to women’s suffrage, also juggled being a writer, political secretary and a supportive wife after Henry was blinded in a shooting accident. Millicent was a radical who flirted with republicanism, supported proportional representation, trade unionism, keenly advocated individualistic and free trade principles. She was long overshadowed by her more militant contemporaries in the Women’s Social and Political Union (WPSU).
She was against the militant activity but provoked the idea that the violence towards women’s rights campaigners was far worse than any ‘militant’ activity by a minority of suffragists. During which time, minor breaches of law such as flag waving were treated with more severity than worse crimes committed by men (Garrett Fawcett, 1912). She also highlighted the turning of the hose upon a suffrage prisoner on a midwinters night and the force feeding of prisoners who were on hunger strikes as turning points in the fight for women’s suffrage.
She continued to fight for women’s suffrage throughout and supported W.T. Stead’s expose of the slave trade. She was a moral advocate of the Contagious Diseases Act and supported in the 1870s, supported the several Reform Bills that when through the Commons, despite the failed attempts of adding Women’s Suffrage Amendments, progress was slowly being made. Millicent was such a prominence figure in British political life, she was asked to conduct an official report on the use of concentration camps during the Boer War after Emily Hobhouse’s damning unofficial report. She produced a balanced and detailed report to parliament confirming the conclusion’s from Hobhouse’s report.
Women’s suffrage united
In the 1890s, she began to unite the women’s suffrage movements across the country and in 1897 became president of the National Union of Women’s Suffrage Societies (NUWSS), the umbrella corporation that linked every suffrage society across the country. Through this she continued to fight behind the scenes during World War I, pushing for reforms in parliament after the war. However, did agree to suspend campaigning efforts to assist the wartime effort, she was convinced that the role played by women during the war would assist the suffrage effort.
Her faith was repaid when in 1919, the passage of the Representation of People Act 1918 had given the vote to women over 30, after which she resigned from her position as president of the NUWSS but continued to work with and support during campaigns to lower the voting age of women from 30 to 21. She died in 1929 aged 82, a year after the voting age for women was lowered to 21 in 1928. Despite her strong willed public image, she always had private doubts whether women would be enfranchised during her lifetime.
Pre -20th brief history of the Women’s suffrage movement
In the 19th century reformers were beginning to become more prominent in the House of Commons but with every election their impatience grew. It was often case that candidates would pledge a Reform Bill but year after year nothing was done. Each party had brought forward Reform Bills however, nothing was done because neither party really wished to enfranchise the working classes. John Stuart Mill came forward and began to really push for a Reform Bill and with the help of Millicent Fawcett, they campaigned for women’s suffrage. But early attempts saw amendments to the bills for women’s suffrage defeated at the first attempt.
Ground was slowly being made with these attempts because it was slowly capturing the public’s imagination and inspiring other women to get involved. John Bright was a defiantly against the idea of women’s suffrages and one of the more vocal opposition voices but in 1867, John Stuart Mill gave a speech in the Commons, described as “masterly” by Fawcett, and convinced Bright to vote with him on the Reform Bill. This was carried but on May 20th, the Women’s Suffrage Amendment was defeated and this was the only time that Bright voted with Mill.
In 1886, after a heavy defeat of another Women’s Suffrage Amendment to the Reform Bill two years earlier, the Women’s Liberal foundation was founded. In 1892, Samuel Smith MP feared the idea that women should vote and sent out a whip signed by 20 members of parliament, 10 each from either side “earnestly beseeching members” to be in their place when the Women’s Suffrage Bill came on and vote against it. This division was the last time that it would be defeated in parliament as straight issue, as in 1897 another bill was put forward and was carried on second reading by 228 votes 157.
The struggle was made harder by the anti-suffragist press and they acted on the assumption that if they say nothing about a political event, then such event didn’t take place. In other words, they would highlight or give prominence to any story or event that would be harmful to the suffrage movement. They would actively avoid the facts about its growing force and volume or record them in a manner that escaped the reader. This resulted in only suffragists who were in contact with other comrades around the world and have their own papers would be able to keep up with the latest information of what has happened and what is likely to happen.

THE DEEP MYTHOLOGICAL ORIGIN OF MAN’S REBELLION TOWARDS NATURE
It is worth recalling how and why a small section of the Earth’s inhabitants in Europe were able to embark on a quest for a global domination. What gave the Europeans the power, authority, and legitimacy to dominate the world? Somewhere in history, as recorded in the Bible, the natural order was tilted as human consciousness shifted in a fundamental way. This shift occurred fundamentally as a result of humanity’s rebellion toward the natural order. The creation myths narrated in the Abrahamic religions in the Book of Genesis provide some clues on what took place at the beginning of human history. The Book of Genesis states that the first humans lived in God’s garden (the garden of Eden), but they were expelled because of their disobedience. Genesis Chapter 3 narrates the curse God placed upon creation.
The human race realised that they were alone, naked, and miserable, cursed with suffering and death in a hostile world. The seed of yearning for a reconciliation between nature, man and God was planted. This feeling of alienation made mankind vengeful and hostile toward God, themselves, and creation itself. In a desperate effort to regain their lost paradise, they began to launch a deadly assault on nature, which led them to lose their consciousness. The invention of a hierarchical society, which placed God (or gods), priests, kings and queens at the top, with everyone else in a subjugated state, was man’s first attempt to re-establish order. This man-made order consistently leads to decay, tyranny and collapse. The children of men have died in their millions, in both the establishment and the destruction of this hierarchical man-made order. While many other forms of government have tried to create a fair system that will benefit the community’s needs rather than individuals’ desire for power, all efforts have been in vain. An ancient writer of the Book of Ecclesiastes in the Old Testament reminds us of humanity’s endless pursuit of the wind.
For thousands of years leading up to this point, mankind’s endeavours were largely motivated by their deep desire to find the lost paradise of Eden. Ancient Greek philosophy was borne out of this deep desire to know the highest form of life, the ideal or utopian form of the world, and to understand why the world is the way it is.
Many early European explorers were surprised by the purity, beauty, and mysticism of nature when they went to the islands in Oceania or Caribbean – some even said that they had found the “lost garden of Eden”. Unfortunately, the problem did not lie in the newly discovered islands, but in the unfulfilled void in their heart. The cornerstone of human thinking has, in large part, been dominated by an immense hunger to rediscover the lost eternal home. In order to achieve this, they required power. The descendants of this human family have become desperate to regain Eden. In the process of pursuing this mythological lost paradise, they built astonishing cities and civilisations.
Civilisation emerged out of human communities coming together in a large, organised groups to cultivate the uncultivated natural world. In the process, they destroyed the natural world, enslaved and massacred millions of species, including their own people. The civilisations and cities that they had built became so big, unmanageable, and corrupt that nature and God decided to destroy them to restore the natural order. Religious and cultural myths have left us many signs of what happened to our ancestors. The stories of the Tower of Babel, Sodom and Gomorra, and Noah’s flood warn us of the future fate of mankind and the other species on this planet.
Many kingdoms, empires and civilisations have repeated the same tragic stories as their ancestors. They continue to launch deadly attacks on nature and on their fellow humans and animals, gradually losing their consciousness. Today, we are witnessing the final phase of this aggressive and destructive path. This destruction can be traced to the dawn of the Renaissance in Italy, which is deeply rooted in the psyche of civilised man, ever since their rebellious ancestors were expelled from the garden of Eden.


Vincent van Gogh, the Dutch Post-Impressionist painter, is perhaps one of the most renowned and enigmatic figures in the history of art. His vibrant and emotionally charged works have left an indelible mark on the art world, inspiring generations of artists and captivating audiences around the globe. From his tumultuous personal life to his revolutionary artistic style, the story of Vincent van Gogh is one that continues to fascinate and intrigue.
Born on March 30, 1853, in Groot-Zundert, Netherlands, Vincent van Gogh led a life marked by struggle and hardship. Despite being the son of a minister, he initially pursued a career in art after being inspired by the works of the Dutch Masters. However, his early efforts were fraught with setbacks, and he struggled to find his artistic voice.
It wasn’t until his late twenties that van Gogh began to find success as an artist. His move to Paris in 1886 proved to be a pivotal moment in his career, where he was exposed to new artistic movements such as Impressionism and Pointillism. Influenced by these styles, van Gogh began to experiment with bold colors and expressive brushwork, giving rise to his distinctive artistic style.
One of van Gogh’s most iconic works, “Starry Night,” exemplifies his unique approach to painting. Executed in 1889 during his time at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France, the painting depicts a swirling night sky illuminated by vibrant stars. The expressive use of color and dynamic brushstrokes conveys van Gogh’s emotional state, offering a glimpse into the artist’s inner turmoil.
Despite his artistic achievements, van Gogh’s personal life was fraught with challenges. Struggling with mental illness and financial instability, he endured numerous setbacks throughout his life. His relationship with his brother Theo, a steadfast supporter of his art, provided a source of stability amidst the chaos.
Tragically, van Gogh’s life was cut short when he died by suicide at the age of 37. In death, however, his legacy endured, and his work began to receive the recognition it deserved. Today, Vincent van Gogh is celebrated as one of the greatest artists of all time, his paintings fetching millions of dollars at auction and drawing millions of visitors to museums each year.
Beyond his artistic achievements, van Gogh’s life serves as a testament to the power of perseverance and passion. Despite facing immense adversity, he remained dedicated to his craft, producing some of the most iconic works in the history of art.
In conclusion, Vincent van Gogh’s life and work continue to captivate and inspire audiences around the world. From his innovative use of color and brushwork to his poignant depictions of the human experience, van Gogh’s legacy remains as vibrant and enduring as his art. As we continue to unravel the mysteries of his life and work, one thing remains clear: Vincent van Gogh will forever be remembered as a true master of the canvas.


The "Dwarves" of Stonelir
Dwarves, or "Short elves", come from a land called Stonelir. They are called "Short elves" Because their original country was full of 2 Giant races, and a race of dragons called "Vakin". Meaning compared to the other race they were small, but in reality they were only a couple inches smaller than an average human. They escaped from a civil war between the 2 Giant races called the "Castal" and the "Fortal". The war became so dangerous for the whole continent that there was only the 3 races left, The Dwarves, the Castal, and the Fortal. The Dwarves, only being a small group left, prayed to the god of creation, "Lor'kas", and fled from their homes in the middle of the night into their new home, Arkacia. At their arrival, they found a mountain to call their new home. As they had to dig their way through the mountain, with being very skilled in technology, they created many ways to make their job easier. Their first invention was the "Sharp Hammer" or the "Shif Volen", so they named their first city Volenfell, in translation "The City of the Hammer". It is said the Dwarves settled and worked more and more on new technology, eventually inventing an airship, but this is just a myth for no one knows the secrets of the mysterious "Short elves". Many have tried to get a member of their society to spill their secrets but Dwarves are the most resilient of Arkacia, and all attempts have failed. Now it is up to King Jovan, brought to Arkacia by his fleeing family, to keep the Dwarven race alive and thriving.
The original colonies of the Dwarven race worshipped many different gods and goddesses, but the only ones left to flee were those that worshipped the "God of Creation" Lor'kas. Lor'kas is the father of Brûl and Kul, the god and goddess of death and destruction, Azar the goddess of Light, Barka the patron god of the Earth, and Kalil the guardian.
At the beginning of time it is said that there were many different gods and goddesses, all different kinds of pantheologies, and they all ruled the universe. Lor'kas, born of Matter, was the first to start the creation of the land of Stonelir. Lor'kas created the Dwarf races and Dragon race of "Vakin". Realizing there was no balance on earth, he had to created his son and daughter, Brûl and Kul. These two juvenile god and goddesses quickly turned to tyranny and created the two evil races of Giants, the Castal and Fortal.
It is said that the father of King Jovan of Volenfell's father, Johan, was the first to create Magical Gems. Dwarves are known for their advanced technology but this was so advanced that he kept the secret to himself. Before his passing on his travels to Arkacia, he kept his creations hidden and told no one where they were, and took the secret to his grave. After the discovery of these gems in Arkacia it seems that these gems were found, and spread throughout the lands. Jovan's father's secret is a secret no more. All now have access to its magical powers.
After months of King Jovan being away searching for a way to defeat the undead army, his dwarves still did not hear from him. It is almost as he vanished from thin air. With their leader missing, the citizens chose to flee their home, and Arkacia all together. The town of Volenfell has fallen in to disarray, and who knows what torments their leader is going through. Volenfell, alas, is no more, for now...

Trismus is a multifactorial symptom which is most commonly presented after the removal of lower third molars. Upper third molar is a rare but true cause of trismus and must be included in the differential diagnosis. We present a rare case of trismus caused by the presence of malposed upper third molar, obstructing the forward movement of coronoid process of the mandible and restricting further mouth opening.
