What Is It that Pleases the Maker?
Spring 2014 Programs
In Civilization in Transition (CW Vol. 10), Jung's thoughts span 41 years, from 1918 to 1959. This reading course will focus on selected readings that are as important today as when Jung first penned them. "The Role of the Unconscious" and "The Spiritual Problem in Modern Man" provide Jung's views of the function and purpose the unconscious, how it impacts self-knowledge, and how it helps in maintaining one's identity in the face of the pressures of society. "The Meaning of Psychology for Modern Man" and "The Undiscovered Self" address the relationship between the individual and mass society. This includes the plight of the individual in modern society, religion as a counterbalance to "mass-mindedness," the individual's understanding of himself, self-knowledge, and the meaning of self-knowledge. "The Rise of the New World" and "The Complications of American Psychology" provide a glimpse of Jung's description of or projections on American culture. As he said, Thus, when I have to say something serious about Americans and their peculiar psychology, my European audience is not shocked exactly, but at all events somewhat puzzled and inclined to disapprove. What the Americans will feel about my ideas remains to be seen (par. 947).

Our capacities toward relationship and openness to the "other," while still remaining tuned to one's own true self, depend on our psychological immune reactions. -Edward C. Whitmont
The immune function, essential for sustaining life in a hostile environment, can be activated through the placement of an antigenic substance into the body, an inoculum that will produce or boost immunity to a specific disease. This process is analogous to the alchemical principle of conscious meeting unconscious, creating the prima materia, and integrating the shadow, the central theme of Jung's work. Our immunity is interdependent on sleep, nourishment, and exercise. All of these interactions of psyche, matter, and movement occur through the transfer of energy and are mediated through what the alchemists call the subtle body.

We will continue the study of Donald Kalsched's ideas, presented in his celebrated publication on childhood trauma and its consequences. We learned in Part I of this study that very early in life a human being "tends to become cruelly divided against himself and becomes a self-frustrating and at times even a self-destroying creature" and that this becomes the "root of psychotic, psychosomatic, and psychoneurotic tensions and illnesses." Because of this early trauma, the psyche becomes the battleground of titanic forces of dissociation and integration, and the original trauma is not retained in the memorable personal form but in the archetypal daimonic form; it is retained in a magical layer of consciousness that is not accessible to the ego and instead manifests in dreams, fantasies, object-images, and interpersonal struggles. For healing and ego-integration to occur, the early trauma has to be "incarnated" into the personal world of human experience. This often happens as an experience of re-traumatization. [Participation in part 1 is not prerequisite.]

Continuing our deep psychic exploration of kriya yoga astrology, we will turn to Mars and Saturn. These planets are known to astrologers, respectively, as the lesser and greater malefics because they cannot be accessed without passing through or sitting with fear, constriction, anger, passion, frustration, and burnout. In this course we will consider them in a dialogical relationship as hearth (Saturn) and fire (Mars), habit (Saturn) and the energy of transformation (Mars).
We will use film, art, poetry, literature, myth, and importantly, food, as a means to examine these two planets. There are two yogic maxims that will be deeply examined in this course to better understand the dialog between Saturn and Mars: "From food you get mind," and "If you want to change the patterns of childhood, stop eating the foods of childhood."
These two maxims, in all their symbolic richness, tap directly into Saturn — the rigid patterns around food, culture, childhood, and cultivated adult eating habits that, when broken, often cause the psyche to erupt, and Mars — the anger, passion, and energy that can be unleashed when the psyche is invited to try something new.
This is the fifth in the series of malefic planets we have contemplated. In the kriya yoga tradition, astrology is an initiated experience that allows one to explore the parameters of their own psyche and their own life experience, rather than having it interpreted by another. As always the course will culminate with the participants presentations of their own projects synthesizing the materials presented in the class and their meaning to the participants own psyche and life.
Heidi Lindemann and Michael Perry are lineage holders in the Kriya Yoga tradition (an Indian alchemical tradition) and are authorized to initiate and teach Kriya Yoga and its related teachings. The techniques of Kriya Yoga involve a psycho-physical means of self-inquiry and are an initiated path to understanding one's own psyche in the context of the macrocosm. The Swami order is one of the oldest, continuous, living initiatory and alchemical systems extant. Heidi and Michael combine their experience to make yogic teachings accessible to western minds by use of comparative mythology, storytelling, astrology, and other symbolic systems. They are regular course leaders at the Jung Society, the Theosophical Society, and have delivered lectures on Samkhya Yoga to colleges and seminaries.
Every form of addiction is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol, morphine, or idealism.
Wind blowing over water disperses it, dissolving it into foam and mist. This suggests that when a man's vital energy is dammed up within him, gentleness serves to break up and dissolve the blockage. -Richard Wilhelm, The I-Ching, Hexagram 59: Dispersion
Unconditional care for the Self is a process that embodies gentle acceptance of the totality of our self, including those parts that we disown and find repugnant. In this way, we don't become pathogenic to ourselves and become our own worst enemy to our shadow, our greatest source of growth. As a result of not being seen as children, of being disrespected, neglected, criticized, judged, and violated, we may have dissociated and imprinted the qualities of the original perpetrators deep in our psyche. Developing unconditional care is an antidote to self-attack and autoimmune reactions within the psyche, which block the dissolution of compensatory defenses and addictions and integration of the shadow.
The alchemical operation solutio turns solid into liquid through dissolution or baptism. In the classic alchemical treatise, The Splendor Solis, an illustration depicts an old king sitting in the alchemical bath while a man applies a bellows to the fire underneath, to "wash out the murkiness and shade" so the king can be purified and transformed into the prima materia. Achilles, whose well-intentioned mother, the nymph Thetis, bathed Achilles in the river Styx as she held him by the heel so that he could become immortal, might have asked, "Mom, what are you doing?" She might have answered, as Alice Miller said ironically, its "for your own good," leaving his heel the one vulnerable place left to later magnetize the fatal arrow during the Trojan War.
How can we make the arrow point an inoculation of consciousness? Often we are shot with the arrow over and over before we get the message that we have magnetized our own rejected primal wounds. If we can treat that repugnant wound consciously, uncritical of our failure in battle, even venerate our repugnance, we may be able to re-baptize ourselves and re-experience the essence of our wounds and see the blessing of these symptoms that hitherto have been perceived as enemies. We no longer throw out the baby with the bathwater.
Richard Wilhelm introduced Chinese Alchemy to Jung, who synthesized the teachings with Western Alchemy, creating a more effective psychology. Jung said of Wilhelm, "[H]e has inoculated us with the living germ of the Chinese spirit."
In this course we will explore a cross inoculation of Eastern and Western alchemical concepts that promote solutio, such as myth and dream analysis and active imagination from the West and the I-Ching, Tibetan Tantric practices, such as dream and sleep yoga, dark retreats, and the use of mantra and meditation from the East.

Laura will lead a discussion of her latest book "Focused on the Spirit."
From the Back Matter:Well-known for his articulation of the "shadow side" of human individuality and culture, C.G. Jung wrote a great deal about the question of evil throughout his life and in scattered places in his work.
In this book his position is pieced together from many sources. In his early work on the unconscious, for instance, he considered the role of evil in the mental processes of the severely disturbed. Later, he viewed the question of moral choice within the framework of his ideas about archetypes and discussions about moral choices, conscience, and the continual ethical reflection that is necessary for all of us. The material here includes letters to Freud and Father Victor White and selections from his writings ranging from his Answer to Job to his travel piece on North Africa.
April Barrett is in service to the dissemination of Jung's thought through her participation and training with the Creative Initiative Foundation, the Guild for Psychological Studies, and the Jung Society of Washington, for which she is program co-director, executive director, and secretary/treasurer of the board.
In this five-week interactive and experiential class, participants will be will be asked to bring two copies of one or two of their dreams. Each dreamer will then draw some aspect of his/her dream. We will look carefully at the Dream Drawings, first from a personal point of view and then from a collective point of view. This process will be enhanced by use of active imagination and amplification in the style of C.G. Jung. We will ask how the dream informs our understanding of self and then how it applies to the collective, to life on Earth today, in the small circles of our lives and the larger ones, as well.

We are happy to let you know that at the suggestion of people close to us we are going to enlarge our community. Our goal is to explore new ways to bring fresh and meaningful content to both old friends and new ones. As we continue our journey into our new community we will be exploring Jungian ideas, spirituality, my books, those I've co-authored with my wife, exercises from the workbook and seminars we have developed, exerts from lectures and the series I have done for several years at a local bookstore.
Our exploration will begin with my book SACRED SELFISHNESS. For those of you who have read and valued the book you will have the opportunity to find new ideas and a renewed sense of purpose in what we are presenting. And, you can now share the front matter and chapter one in the book with friends and family (download the free PDFs here.) After our initial opening we will continue every two weeks with the most compelling points in the next chapter and interesting exercises from the SACRED SELFISHNESS WORKBOOK. I will also be looking forward to sharing my new reflections that will come up as I look at this material again and hear from you.
There is, of course, a story behind why I am doing this. As I review my life I am very clear that my myth is to be a Jungian Analyst, a seeker and a healer. Part of this myth is to share what I have learned in a way that may help others in their efforts to find a self that is broader and stronger and a life that is beyond what they could have imagined. In other words I want to share in ways that may help you in your journey of individuation, finding your myth and living into the pattern of a fulfilled life that is inherent in every one of us. This is a journey to fulfill this pattern which is both instinctual and Divine, psychological and spiritual, and yet must also be lived fully.
Just as I am clear about my myth I am also clear the pattern for my life exists but I cannot know it in advance. Oh, how I often wish I could. But, my task from mid-life on has been to remove the blocks that separate me from it, seek to discover it and then live into it. And so, I've come full circle in the story behind this understanding. I want what I have learned and experienced, and what I can still learn and experience, to contribute to the river of life and not to someday simply disappear into the ground.
I would like to give a special invitation to those of you who have subscribed to my newsletter to join us in this new community. At the same time I will continue my newsletter approximately every other month. We will be sharing our new content through Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and a portal through the website of the Center for Spiritual Resources of the Episcopal Diocese of Western North Carolina.
I also want to give my sincere thanks to all of you for your interest in Jung, my work and for your responses and contributions.

Despite having the lowest-ranked offense in the NFL, the Jacksonville Jaguars pose a threat to the Buffalo Bills' secondary on Sunday.
The Jaguars' passing game has been revived the past two weeks since veteran Chad Henne took over for second-year man Blaine Gabbert. Henne has 615 passing yards in two games.
Jacksonville's starting receivers are Justin Blackmon, the fifth overall pick in the 2012 draft, and second-year man Cecil Shorts III, a fourth-round pick out of Division III Mount Union last year.
Shorts leads the NFL with a 20.8 yards-per-catch average. Fourteen of his 36 catches have gone for 20 or more yards. He has a TD catch of 50 or more yards in three straight games and four catches of 50-plus yards overall. (Those went for 80, 52, 67 and 59 yards).
"He's a good yards-after-the-catch guy," said Bills safety Jairus Byrd. "A lot of their big plays have been runs after the catch."
"He does a good job of getting open and getting separation from corners," said cornerback Leodis McKelvin. "They get the ball in his hands nad he makes guys miss. It's the YAC that really been making him successful."
Blackmon, the former Oklahoma State star, has more than half of his receiving yards the past two weeks. He had seven catches for 236 yards against Houston two weeks ago and five for 62 last week vs. Tennessee."In college he was the offense," said cornerback Aaron Williams, who faced Blackmon in college. "For every rookie, it's a slow transition from college to the NFL. I went through it. He's gone through it. But now you see him catching more balls and making more plays. He's always been a playmaker."

---- — DERRY — Derry Public Library could save a lot of money once it gets upgraded to natural gas.
That is what officials hope for as a plan to convert the 23,000-square-foot library's HVAC systems from oil to natural gas gets closer to a start date.
The town is currently seeking proposals from contractors. The cost of the conversion could be approximately $83,000; the money was included in the town's fiscal year 2014 capital improvement plan.
"This has been a long-term goal," Public Works Director Michael Fowler said.
The project will be done in several phases, Fowler said, with the initial phase beginning later this summer to extend the gas main from Park Avenue, across East Broadway to the library.
Natural gas could save the library thousands of dollars per year. Fowler said the library was already spending about $14,000 per year on its approximate 4,500-gallon fuel oil usage.
Town officials and library board members have had the project on the radar for some time.
"The cost of (natural gas) is so much cheaper," Town Administrator John Anderson said during this year's budget process.
He said there even may be a possibility of tying nearby Grinnell Elementary and Gilbert H. Hood Middle schools into a natural gas link once the library goes online.
The library could save thousands of dollars simply because it would no longer require regular Department of Environmental Services inspections of its 5,000-gallon underground oil storage tank.
Helping the library save money on energy costs is part of the town's mission to be as energy-efficient as possible, Fowler said.
"Whenever possible, we try to be proactive," he said. "This makes sense for the town."
Other town facilities are reaping benefits. Energy-saving efforts are already in use in many buildings, Fowler said, including the fire department, police station, and municipal center.
When the police department went from propane to natural gas, utility bills dropped about 7 percent.
"We've been pretty consistent with our energy efforts," Fowler said.
The town's other library, Taylor Library in East Derry, also saw energy-saving changes. In 2013, town officials approved measures to put cost-saving measures into place at the tiny library, including replacing storm windows, sealing leaks, insulation work and adding energy-efficient light bulbs — simple changes that keep the building cooler in summer and warmer during the winter.
Another historic building in town, Veterans Hall, also got major upgrades. The town used Energy Efficiency Community Block grant funding to give the 85-year-old building a major face-lift.
The building got exterior improvements, roof repairs, new energy-efficient windows and doors, and a more efficient boiler and radiant heat system.

CLEVELAND -- At his locker stall after the game, Buffalo Bills linebacker Nick Barnett was stumped.
My question: Which of the Bills' defensive linemen had the best game today?
"Wooo," Barnett said with a wide smile after the Bills beat the Cleveland Browns 24-14. "That's a hard one to answer.
"I think all of them were playing fast and running around. They were causing havoc and making plays. That's the way we envision that line playing."
Each of Buffalo's starting defensive lineman got in on the sack attack, and they were phenomenal against the run, holding dangerous Cleveland running back Trent Richardson to 27 yards on 12 carries.
"We came out with the mindset we have to make them one-dimensional," Bills safety George Wilson said. "We did that."
Cleveland had 33 rushing yards as a team and managed only four rushing first downs.
Richardson, last year's Heisman Trophy runner-up at Alabama, did have a 6-yard touchdown, his longest gain of the afternoon. Buffalo bottled him up, and when Barnett over pursued in the backfield, Richardson bounced outside.
"I told the coaches and I told the D-line, 'We have to hit him before he hits us' because he's the type of running back who gets after it," Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus said. They were Alabama teammates. "He hits DBs. He hits linebackers. He hits D-linemen. We've got to hit him and swarm the ball."
The Bills swarmed rookie quarterback Brandon Weeden, too.
Mario Williams and Mark Anderson, the Bills' big-ticket free-agent defensive ends, notched their first sacks with their new team. Anderson's came on a third-down from the Bills' 49-yard line in the fourth quarter and forced a punt.
"Across the board, they had to pick their poison," Williams said of the Browns' troubles. "At the end of the day we played off one another and made it happen."
Defensive tackles Kyle Williams and Dareus also had sacks. Dareus shared his with Mario Williams in the fourth quarter. Weeden threw an interception on the next play to seal the game.
"Wish we could do it every week," Kyle Williams said. "We had guys that stepped up in big parts of the game. Everybody along the front made some plays. We did a great job in the run game, so we're pretty happy with how things went today.
"That's what we have the guys to do. Everybody can make plays at any point in the game. When you've got guys all along the front who, when they get one-on-one [blocking], they have the chance to win and can win."

Comments about Sixsixone MX3 Knee Brace 2011:
hard to find the right setup with inside padding to fit knee. not so adjustable. pads will pinch skin (when bent) or cause a rash due to friction while used. am about to give up on these after too many attempts of setting up.
It is not possible to stand upright with your knees locked. maybe it is a feature, maybe a design flaw, it is not comfortable, for sure...

A Hydrographical and Chorographical Chart of the Philippine Islands
This magnificent map of the Philippine archipelago, drawn by the Jesuit Father Pedro Murillo Velarde (1696–1753) and published in Manila in 1734, is the first and most important scientific map of the Philippines. The Philippines were at that time a vital part of the Spanish Empire, and the map shows the maritime routes from Manila to Spain and to New Spain (Mexico and other Spanish territory in the New World), with captions. In the upper margin stands a great cartouche with the title of the map, crowned by the ...
General Atlas of All the Islands in the World
Islario general de todas las islas del mundo (General atlas of all the islands in the world) is the greatest work by Seville cosmographer Alonso de Santa Cruz (1505–67). The atlas was begun during the reign of Holy Roman Emperor and King of Spain Charles V and finished in that of his son King Philip II, to whom it was dedicated. It consists of 111 maps representing all the islands and peninsulas of the world, and showing all the discoveries made by European explorers from 1400 to the mid-16th ...
Java and Australia
This manuscript map of Java and the tip of northern Australia is a copy of an earlier work by the Malaysian-Portuguese cartographer Emanuel Godinho de Eredia (1563-1623). In the 16th century, Portugal sent several expeditions to explore the islands south of Malaysia; it is possible that they gained some knowledge about the geography of Australia from these missions. Some scholars have speculated that the Malays had a knowledge of Australia, which Eredia somehow absorbed. The first documented European sighting of Australia was by the Dutch navigator Willem Janszoon, in 1606.
Codicil of Queen Isabel the Catholic, Executed at Medina del Campo, on November 23, 1504
On November 23, 1504, three days before her death, Queen Isabella of Spain signed, in Medina del Campo, a codicil before the same notary, Gaspar de Gricio, and five of the seven witnesses who had been present on October 12 for the signing of her last will and testament. In the testament, the queen addressed the fundamental aspects of government by the Catholic monarchs. In the codicil, besides reaffirming what she had stipulated in the testament, she addressed questions directly affecting peninsular government and showed her concern for Spanish policy ...
The Dutch Republic, Enlarged and Edited: Produced with the Care and Work of Matthaeus Seutter
This map of the United Provinces of the Netherlands was engraved by Matthaeus Seutter (1678-1757), an engraver and publisher from Augsburg, Germany. Seutter studied printing in Nuremburg and in Augsburg, as an apprentice to Jeremias Wolff, before setting up his own printing house in 1710. Seutter generally enlarged and engraved the work of others but did very little drawing of original maps. This map was printed by Tobias Conrad Lotter (1717-77), Seutter's son-in-law, who took over the business after Seutter's death.
Settlement in the East Indies
This sketch is from a collection of 27 drawings on 15 sheets in the National Library of South Africa presenting the earliest realistic depictions of the Khoikhoi people, the original inhabitants of the Western Cape. The drawing shows a Dutch East Indies country scene with tropical flora, simple human dwellings, and a solitary figure in the foreground. The artist who made the drawings in this collection has not been identified. He most likely was a Dutchman, born in the 17th century, who was attached in some capacity to the Dutch ...
Settlement in the East Indies
This sketch is from a set of 27 drawings on 15 sheets that was discovered in the National Library of South Africa in 1986. The drawings are important for presenting the earliest realistic depictions of the Khoikhoi, the original inhabitants of the Western Cape. The sketch depicts a Dutch settlement in the East Indies, showing a street with buildings and trees. A similar drawing depicting the same structures in the Rijksprentenkabinet in Amsterdam has been ascribed to Cornelis de Bruyn (circa 1652–circa 1727). This drawing in pencil is the ...

The drawings are important for presenting the earliest realistic depictions of the Khoikhoi people, the original inhabitants of the Western Cape.

The Complete World Map
The author of this work is unknown. The name of the person who copied the manuscript appears at the end of the work, signed Zhou Yousheng. Some have attributed authorship to Ai Nanying (1583–1646), a late-Ming essayist and literary critic, who wrote a work entitled Yu Gong tu zhu (Explanatory text to the map of the Yu Gong), the central concept of which was the traditional Chinese view on geography. According to that view, Yu of the Xia dynasty (circa 2070–circa 1600 BC) divided the Middle Kingdom into ...
The Administrative Maps of the Ming Dynasty (Incomplete Copy)
The author of this work was Chen Zushou (died 1637), a late-Ming literary author. A native of Yanling (present-day Changzhou, Jiangsu Province), Chen Zushou received his jin shi degree in 1634 and became, in the following year, an official at the Bureau of Operations, one of the four bureaus in the Ministry of War. In 1636, while working at the ministry, he wrote this book, based on a large number of earlier works and contemporary local records, including maps. The original edition, very rich in content, had three juan in ...
The Attack of Manilla, October 1762
The Seven Years' War (1756-63) was a world-wide conflict between Britain and France that also involved Spain as an ally of France. In 1762, the British sent Admiral William Draper, with an expeditionary force of some 2,000 European and Indian (Sepoy) soldiers, to attack Manila in the Spanish colony of the Philippines. The Spanish offered little opposition, and on October 2, 1762, the acting governor-general, Archbishop Manuel Antonio Rojo, surrendered the city. The British occupation lasted until 1764, when the Philippines reverted to Spanish control as part of the ...
Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Competition Drawing
The Vietnam Veterans Memorial, originally designed as a student project by Maya Lin for her degree at Yale University Architectural School, has become a profound national symbol and a seminal piece of American monumental architecture. Undertaken to heal a nation torn apart by the controversial war, the competition attracted proposals from thousands of veterans and architects. Lin envisioned a black granite wall, in the shape of a V, on which the names of the American military dead and missing would be inscribed. The architect hoped that "these names, seemingly infinite ...
Comprehensive Map of Vietnam's Provinces
This undated brush and ink manuscript map of Vietnam during the 19th century combines features of the traditional cartography practiced in both China and Vietnam with some Western elements. The place names and a text block in the lower right-hand corner are in classical Chinese calligraphy, the writing system used by both Chinese and Vietnamese scholar-officials. Traditional elements include its pictorial style (mountains, trees, and structures such as the border gate between Vietnam and China), lack of precise scale, and emphasis on mountains and water. A large number of mountains ...
The Burmese Empire a Hundred Years Ago, as Described by Father Sangermano, with an Introduction and Notes by John Jardine
Vincenzo Sangermano (1758–1819) was a Roman Catholic priest, a member of the Barnabite religious order, who served as a missionary in Burma from 1783 to 1806. After initially going to the then-capital city of Ava, he settled in Rangoon, where he completed construction of a church and a college of missionaries. While heading the college, Sangermano undertook pioneering research on the political, legal, and administrative system of the Burmese Empire and on Burmese cosmography, science, religion, and manners and customs. Sangermano based his work on personal observations and inquiries ...
Burma Under British Rule
Joseph Dautremer was a French scholar specializing in Asian languages who served for a time as the French consul in Rangoon, the capital of British Burma. Burma Under British Rule is a detailed study of Burma, with chapters devoted to the history, people, physical geography, economy, and international trade of the country. A brief concluding chapter deals with the Andaman Islands, where the British maintained a penal colony. Originally published in Paris in 1912, Dautremer's book was translated from the French into English by Sir (James) George Scott (1851 ...
A Narrative of the Mission Sent by the Governor-General of India to the Court of Ava in 1855, with Notices of the Country, Government, and People
In December 1852, at the conclusion of the second Anglo-Burmese War, the British annexed the southern and coastal regions of Burma (known as Lower Burma). Pagan Min, and later his brother Mindon Min, continued to rule Upper Burma. In 1855, Arthur Phayre, the British commissioner for the annexed territories, visited the court of Ava in Upper Burma as part of an effort to improve relations with Mindon. Henry Yule was secretary to Phayre and accompanied him on the mission. This work, written by Yule, is a modified version of the ...
The Colonization of Indochina
La colonisation de l'Indo-Chine: L'Expérience anglaise (The colonization of Indochina: the English experience) is an 1892 case study of the British colonial experience in Asia and its lessons for France in the administration of French Indochina (present-day Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam). The author, influential French essayist and colonial theorist Joseph Chailley-Bert (1854–1928), was a passionate advocate of reforming France's colonization practices and governing strategies, which he argued were deficient in both design and execution, and of the need to draw upon the successful experiences of the ...
The Province of Burma; A Report Prepared on Behalf of the University of Chicago
Alleyne Ireland (1871–1951) was a Fellow of the Royal Geographic Society in London who, in 1901, was appointed by the University of Chicago to head a commission to study colonial administration in the Far East. Ireland's first major project, published in 1907, was this exhaustive, two-volume study of Burma, at the time under British rule as a province of the Indian Empire. Volume one contains a general description of Burma, a history of Britain's acquisition of the colony, and chapters on the people, government, general administration, civil ...
A Voyage in the Indian Ocean and to Bengal, undertaken in the Years 1789 and 1790: Containing an Account of the Sechelles Islands and Trincomale
Louis de Grandpré was a French army officer who made an extensive tour of the Indian Ocean region in 1789-90. This account of his voyage is an English translation of the original French version, which was published in Paris in 1801 under the title Voyage dans l'Inde et au Bengale fait dans les années 1789 et 1790, contenant la description des îles Séchelles et de Trinquemaly. Grandpré began his voyage in the French-controlled Île de France (Isle of France), as Mauritius was called, passed by the Maldives, and visited ...
Portuguese Possessions in Oceania
This book by Affonso de Castro, an infantry captain in the Portuguese Army who served as governor of East Timor (present-day Timor-Leste) from 1859 to 1863, is one of the earliest historical studies of this former Portuguese colony. The work is in two parts. The first part examines the history of East Timor from its occupation by the Portuguese in the 16th century, and recounts Queen Mena's conversion to Christianity and the disputes with the Dutch over the region. In the second part of the study, the author examines ...

SUV driver pulled over motorist, threatened to arrest him
The incident happened about 8:30 p.m. Police said a man was driving on Wason Road when a white SUV pulled up behind him. The SUV driver flashed his fog lights off and on, signaling the other driver to pull over.
The SUV driver did not say he was a police officer or show a badge, police said, but he threatened to arrest the occupant in the other vehicle.
Police said the driver of the SUV is described as a white, middle-aged man with medium length salt and pepper hair. He was wearing a white shirt and blue jeans.
Anyone with information about the incident or other such activity is asked to call police at 603-886-6011.

My kids unload off the bus on part of the 4-lane section of Avondale Road in unincorporated King County. Year after year I am amazed at how many cars following the bus will continue to pass the bus after the bus has stopped and the stop sign is extended. In fact, I have seen several cases where cars will pull out from behind the bus and go around it after the bus has stopped. What those drivers may not realize is our bus driver is writing down their license plate numbers and they can expect to receive a ticket in the mail for $394! Last week alone she caught 7-8 drivers including two in one day at our bus stop. Bus drivers have the right to fill out a form to send in for the police to contact the registered owner(s) of the car. You can be sure our bus driver is filling out those forms!
According to this article in the Puget Sound Business Journal, King County has now contracted with a service to add cameras on the buses to catch drivers who pass the bus once the stop sign has been extended.
http://www.bizjournals.com/seattle/morning_call/2012/10/pass-a-stopped-school-bus-face-a-fine.html Personally, I think it's a great idea and definitely needed considering the number of infractions I have seen at my stop alone.
Please slow down and pay attention when you are following a bus. A child's life is not worth the extra minutes you are saving by making an illegal pass.

Roundabouts are now a part of daily life for many unincorporated Redmond residents.
As part of the ongoing Novelty Hill construction project, King County has installed two roundabouts, one at Union Hill Road and 196th Avenue Northeast, and another at Novelty Hill Road and 195th Avenue Northeast.
A reader contacted us earlier this week to say many drivers haven't learned how to safely proceed through the intersections with new roundabouts: "No one seems to know that the people in the circle have the right of way and people entering the circle have to yield."
Have you witnessed any collisions or near-misses at Redmond's new roundabouts? Tell us in the comments section.
For those in need of a refresher, here are some tips from King County's Road Services Division:
- SLOW down. A speed of 15 mph or less is appropriate throughout the roundabout.
- LOOK for pedestrians at the crosswalks as you approach and exit the roundabout. Stop for pedestrians; they have the right-of-way.
- YIELD to all vehicles in the roundabout. Look to your left and wait for a gap in the circulating traffic before entering.
- ENTER the roundabout. Once in the circulating lane, do not stop and do not overtake vehicles ahead of you.
- EXIT the roundabout in the direction of your destination. Street signs are posted to guide you.
King County touts roundabouts as a safer, cheaper and more efficient alternative to traffic signals. For more information, check out the attached PDF from King County, or visit WSDOT's "How to use a roundabout" web page.

After a month or more of indulging at holiday parties and splurging on gifts, the time has come to get back on track. Lace up your sneakers and lock up your credit card or face constant reminders from bossy lifestyle publications, which will most certainly devote the start of 2013 to demanding we get back to our "better" selves. Or so they'd have us believe.

The Superchips Flashpaq offers premiere levels of performance enhancement and diagnostic ability for gasoline and diesel models in a compact, easy-to-use size. Under all speeds and throttle levels, the Flashpaq can boost horsepower for quicker speed, torque for more towing ability, or increase fuel economy as you choose. Varying factory settings for fuel/air mixtures, timing, fuel injector flow, throttle responsiveness, and automatic transmission shift points produces amazing results, and the Flashpaq delivers for a price that's hard to beat. If your car or truck is already fitted with a cold-air intake package, low-restriction exhaust system, or even aftermarket throttle body, the Flashpaq will adapt to new learned parameters. No matter what type of driving you use the Flashpaq for, legal emissions levels will be maintained.
Transmission shift points can also be revised to shift at higher or lower rpms, or controlled manually by you. If your transmission is more advanced and provides varying levels of shift firmness, those can be adjusted as well. Diagnostic trouble codes for any vehicle system can be retrieved, stored, and cleared whether your check engine light is on or off. The Flashpaq is also equipped to recalibrate your speedometer for larger tire sizes, change the factory setting that limits your vehicle's top speed, and adjust engine rev cutoff to whatever you choose. The Flashpaq unit is backed by a 1-year manufacturer warranty against manufacturing defects.163.77 359.47
Founded in the United Kingdom as P.J. Detection Techniques in 1977, Superchips was originally involved in racing and became one of the first tuner companies to gain in-depth expertise on modifying engines equipped with electronic fuel injection systems. As engineering expertise grew on a variety of fuel systems and engine types, the company first debuted a line of power-enhancing performance products to the consumer market in England, then worldwide. After changing their name to Superchips in 1991, the company established itself in the United States a year later. The company grew to specialize in hand-held programmers and today remains on the cutting edge of turning modern computer-controlled vehicle functions into creative tuning applications. In 2005, Superchips was acquired by MSD Performance and became affiliated with MSD Ignition, Edge Products and Racepak parts. Today, Superchips USA is based out of Sanford, Florida and performs all production in the United States.Product Reviews (8)

The Flashpaq Tuner has done what it was reported to do. The installation was relatively easy for a novice like myself. I have clearly seen an improvement in fuel economy, and it has helped me to be more aware of my driving habits. I am looking forward to towing my son's boat.

This Superchips programmer is a must have. It gave my car nearly 30 more HP and torque. I did also add a K&N cold air intake to go along with the programmer. I can tell the difference in speed, and my MPG is at about 20 mpg, which is a 4-5 mpg gain from what I initially had. Just a final note, don't fall for those scams that say you can increase horsepower up to 50+ for a low cheap price, they don't work. If you want true gains, it will cost more than 100 bucks. But overall, this is my second CAI and Superchips combo, and I am completely satisfied.8 people found this review helpful.Was this review helpful for you?

The device is certainly easy to use, all one needs to do is plug it in and follow the prompts. The process is a bit slow and when you do it for the first time, you wonder if it is actually functioning. This is a minor criticism as it worked fine. However, there has been little or no improvement to my fuel economy. I also put a cold air induction in and so far my mileage is worse not better. Performance has improved and I have only monitored it for 300km so far and only 50 km towing my RV, so the jury is still out. Also I have not tried the performance settings yet. I suspect that this is where most of the gain will be, but for now I'm trying to increase towing power and fuel economy.11 people found this review helpful.Was this review helpful for you?

Community in shock after body discovered at home in Fareham
Updated 4:29pm Monday 13th January 2014 in News By Emma Streatfield, Senior Reporter
A community spoke of its shock after a man's body was found in a Hampshire home.
Today the only evidence of the police drama that unfolded the day before were two police cars stationed on Gordon Road in Fareham.
A property which one of the police cars is outside of has its porch light on and purple tape on the door.
There is also a child's car seat in the front garden. Police have launched an investigation after the body was found inside a terraced house yesterday morning.
A 41 year old woman has been arrested in connection with the incident. Police are not confirming what she was arrested on suspicion of.
Residents told how they were first alerted that there was something wrong when they saw numerous police vehicles.
Diane Hale, 59, a part time medical receptionist, who lives on the road said: "My husband said have you seen all the police? There were two or three ambulances, a couple of police cars and a crime scene van parked across the other side of the road. And the woman from the van had her overalls on.
"During the day there were still police there, two policeman on the door. It's not an every day occurence, it's just something you think happens elsewhere, it doesn't happen in your road. I don't know them at all. We have had police officers knocking on the door they didn't give out any information."
A 78 year old man who also lives on Gordon Road said: "We have been here 40 years. We have never had any trouble at all."

Not as shocking as Emma Streatfield's (a senior reporter, no less) butchering of all known rules regarding grammar and spelling.

NORMAN — A 20-year-old man who allegedly stole a vehicle at gunpoint Thursday morning in southeast Norman was apprehended in Oklahoma City.
Police Capt. Tom Easley said at 11:22 a.m., the victim notified police of the stolen vehicle from 1100 Oak Tree. Police located the vehicle being driven by Michael Aaron Vinson, of Norman, near 12th Avenue Southeast and Lindsey Street.
A police pursuit ensued and ended in the 4500 block of Southeast 89th Street and Sunnylane Road in Oklahoma City, where Vinson was taken into custody.
Norman officers were assisted by officers from other law enforcement agencies.
Officers arrested Vinson on complaints of robbery or attempted robbery with a dangerous weapon; possession of a firearm in the commission of a felony; eluding a peace officer; larceny of an auto; leaving the scene of an accident and no valid driver's license.

How-To Geek
DIY Photo Booth Features Custom Single-Purpose Button
What do you do if you need users to be able to press a keyboard button but you don't want then roughing up the keyboard or accessing any other buttons? Build a custom and durable single-use button.
Over at Rasterweb they wanted to build a simple photo booth setup for an office party. They used a Mac with a web cam and the Adobe Air-based Sparkbooth to power the setup but one thing was missing–a simple trigger. By default the software responds to a tap of the space bar but putting out a keyboard seemed like a recipe for people hitting the wrong keys, knocking the keyboard off the stand, and other undesired outcomes. To remedy the situation they built a sturdy and fool proof button that did one thing and one thing well: send the space bar command to the attached computer.
Hit up the link to see additional photos of their setup and their detailed button build guide.

Houston vs. LA Lakers, 04/17/2013 22:30
LA Lakers -145
Harout says at 15:04 et
Taking ML Lakers on this one.
This is actually one of the games that matter on tonight's card.
Regardless of what happens to the Utah and Memphis game...
The lakers have a different goal now, and it is not only to make the playoffs, but to also claim the 7th seed to face a banged up spurs team instead of the young and heated thunder. They match up better with the spurs. The Rockets have set themselves up in danger with a loss in Phoenix two nights ago, and it has left the door open for the Lakers.
The loss of kobe has been a big loss to them moving forward to the playoffs, but i have no doubt that the team will be as competitive without him. They have another superstar in Dwight Howard in the block, and regardless of his poor overall contributions this season for the lakers, he has developed a new characther and matured in different aspects. It is his turn to turn this team to a contender, at least for the rest of this season, and i believe in him.
"Sometimes plan B is stronger than plan A" and i believe so with kobe out. From what i seen last game, there is no doubt that he is capable of it, and i think he will continue to dominate alongside with Pau inside. I think this team just went from average to solid.
Kobe is one of the greatest players to ever play the game, and I am not going against that, but what i am referring to for the lakers moving forward, and what they can grow to be in these playoffs.
Lets face it, kobe demanded the ball a lot, and he definitely has the knack of getting it done, but now the team has opportunity for every single individual teammate to get a feel for the ball, while at the same time revolving their play around their dominant big men who are both all-star caliber.
With kobe out now, and the impact it made on the team, regardless of what happens in Memphis for Utah, this team is out there playing for their big bro with their heads up high. Ever since Kobe has been out, Lakers have grown closer as a team, making visits to his house, developing excitement for tonight and strategizing for the game (as seen through social networking sources), and are going to go out there and give it their best regardless of the circumstance. They have the biggest fan base out in LA, and with a sold out game tonight for the last game of the season, there is a lot of pride and loyalty to play for.
3 Units LAL ML for me.
