The Society for the History of Natural History
The Society for the History of Natural History is a friendly international society for everyone who is interested in natural history in the broadest sense. This includes botany, zoology and geology as well as natural history collections, exploration, art and bibliography. Everyone with an interest in these subjects professional or amateur is welcome to join. For a brief history of the society, click here.
SHNH is known for its friendliness and provides a focal point for the history of all aspects of natural history. It has a thriving international membership and regional representatives organise local meetings. An international meeting is held at regular intervals, the most recent being held in the United States in November 2012. A number of meetings and events are scheduled for 2013 so do visit the Meetings and Events pages for more information. Of especial interest will be our meeting on Alfred Russel Wallace.
The Society's main publication is Archives of natural history, produced twice a year, and distributed free to all members. It contains refereed, illustrated papers and book reviews and is published for the Society by Edinburgh University Press. All volumes published from 1936 are now available online.
From time to time, the Society also publishes other works of interest. To celebrate SHNH's 75th anniversary in 2011, we published History and mystery, an anthology of the most interesting, bizarre and entertaining notes and queries from the Society's newsletters. Other publications include: Darwin in the Archives and A Century of Discovery.
An informal Newsletter is produced three times a year and distributed free to members. It contains details of forthcoming meetings, news of other events, a lively Notes & Queries section, members news and new publications.
On this site you will find information about the Society, its activities, publications and how to join us. You will also find news and up-to-date information as well as links to useful resources and further information.

Had you decided to make a film on the topic of sexual abuse in the Church, or did you find this specific story first and then build from there?
I think it was both. I read the piece by Laurie Goodstein (in the New York Times) and that convinced me, because it's not enough to have a subject that's important, but the reason it will make a good film. That story convinced me that it would make a good film, because the crime was so horrible, because it seemed there were heroes at the heart of it, these deaf guys, and because it led to a particular story that led all the way to the top.
Did you know going in that it would go so far, all the way to the current pope?
I did in a way, because one of the rationales for Goodstein's piece was that there were documents that connect the story in Milwaukee all the way to the current pope, to his years prior as a cardinal and to the coverup. That was a key piece of evidence. What I didn't know when I started was just how vast and how longstanding this cover-up has been. That really did surprise me.
READ MORE: Alex Gibney on the Reaction to His 'Zero Dark Thirty' Article and Why He Chimed In On The Debate
One of the aspects of the film that was new and striking to me was the idea of the psychology that allows for people to accept and keep secret these kinds of abuses. Was that something new to you going into it?
It's something that's become increasingly interesting to me both in this film and a film ["We Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaks"] that's coming out at Sundance -- this idea of noble cause corruption. The idea that it's not ironic that a priest would commit abuse or even cover it up more substantially -- it's part of the package. Predators sometimes hide in plain sight where they know they have access to victims, where their status puts them above reproach and because of their status the institution will protect them. And the Church says to itself, well, there's so much good that we do, we can't let a few bad apples get in the way of all that goodness -- so we better hush it up. In so doing they're committing a more unspeakable crime, which is when they know there's clear and present danger to children they not only close their eyes to that danger, they actually allow that danger to continue.
How do you see this film fitting in with the explorations of abuse of power that you've explored in your past work? It's become something of a theme for you.
It does seem like maybe it's time for me to do a romantic comedy. But maybe I'd find an abusive power relationship. It could be interesting. This one does have a lot of similarities, in structure and also in theme, with "Taxi to the Dark Side." [There's] one small incident, and by following the reverberations of that incident you go right to the very top. What you're doing is looking at the mechanism of power and how it is abused and how institutions become corrupted because they believe their own bullshit. They think the end justifies the means, so in that sense I think this one is quite similar from a structural perspective to "Taxi."
Do you see the idea the institutions can self-regulate as part of the problem?
Yes, I do. Look at Wall Street or Penn State or the Boy Scouts. Institutions can't self regulate because they're too imbued with their own sense of high purpose and rectitude. So we depend on other organizations for checks and balances to make sure they not only talk the talk but walk the walk. It should also sensitize all of us to look at what we all do at the institutions we work in, to see if there's some rumbling in our gut telling us that something's wrong.
When I did "Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room," I talked to a lot of people, some of whom agreed to talk to me but not on film, off the record, and they all talked about this gnawing in their gut, this feeling that something was wrong. But they didn't listen and went right on by and in so doing they became caught up in the corruption that was the institution. Part of this is training for all of us. When you feel that something's wrong, it does pay to listen. Imagine if that guy who saw Jerry Sandusky abusing that kid in the shower had gone to the police instead of Joe Paterno.

What Is Yoga in America? Lessons from my students.
Yoga is the student who finally feels safe - and falls deep asleep in savasana (relaxation pose) - not waking while the rest of the group picks up the room and says their goodbye's. After a period of time she awakens - in more than one sense of the word.
Yoga is the long time practitioner, precise in her practice, always a perfect practice. Through a simple breath awareness exercise, she finds her practice a container of restriction. The discovery of fluidity in her body-breath returns her home.
Yoga is the lady, fearful of getting on the floor, who three classes later is on her mat laughing and playing - her child has returned.
Yoga is the woman who feels the benefits of a fun gentle practice, yet who is conflicted by her pastor's teachings. She finds her own way in both worlds.
Yoga is the woman who shares her recovery from breast cancer reconstruction, and re-empowers herself to relocate to share her life with her (grand) family.
Yoga is the man who breathes for the first time - in a class of women.
Yoga is the student, feeling good in a posture, guided to remain off the "edge-of-effort", who nonetheless "tries to make it better". Ouch!
Yoga is the child in the womb driving mom insane with the intensity of life within - and mother finding balance in her outer and inner worlds.
Yoga is compassion for your students.
Yoga is gratitude for all your students teach you.
Yoga is practice in an empty dusty office.
Yoga is practice in a slick polished studio.
Yoga is being while the dentist and her assistant are knuckle deep in your mouth.

The name "Kai Chi Do" literally translates to "Free Spirit Way" or "Free Energy Way". The process of Kai Chi Do takes you through The Five Elements – Root, Air, Fire, Water, and Earth - to free blocked energy. As physical and emotional resistance dissolves, you feel Life Energy flowing freely throughout your body and consciousness, uplifting you.
And bringing you home to your Self.

Citizen's Police Academy a rewarding experience
During the last 10 weeks, a small group of Torrington residents and business professionals participated in an intensive and extremely informative Citizen's Police Academy conducted by the Torrington Police Department.
Last spring, downtown merchants met with Officer Anthony Pietrafesa and Chief Michael Maniago to find out how we could help change a misperception that downtown is not a safe environment, especially since we all felt it is indeed safe. We established a neighborhood watch for downtown and signs were posted. I was asked to be the unofficial block watch captain. As we developed more awareness of life outside our doors, we soon realized we truly have a safe downtown, and we have a police force dedicated to the well-being of all Torrington neighborhoods.

Why are you walking around barefoot?
i hate it when you step on those pieces of pinecones in your bare feet and not only does it hurt cuz it digs into ur foot but then the sap keeps it stuck to your foot and even when you peel it off, you still got that sticky sap on ur foot that sticks to the ground when you take a step and you gotta really scrub it with soap and water to get it off, ugh PISSES ME OFF
cuz why not the only bad things are stepping on pinecone bits and dookie

Luongo: 'In a way, I'm kind of lucky'
Aug 24, 2013, 8:41 PM EDT
In the first two parts of his exclusive interview with TSN's James Duthie, Roberto Luongo laid out the range of his emotions dealing with all of the trade drama with the Vancouver Canucks.
Part three introduces more mixed feelings, as he shares some sympathy for Cory Schneider, who once again finds himself in a platoon situation alongside Martin Brodeur and the New Jersey Devils.
"I kinda feel bad for him because he deserves to be a starter and he's going to have to wait now with Marty there still," Luongo said. "In a way I'm kinda lucky because I get to start and play, which is all you can ask for at this point."
(The "at this point" underscores Luongo's frustration quite well, doesn't it?)
Luongo states his belief that Schneider, 27, is ready to be a superstar in the NHL.
He also (almost) confirms his Twitter avatar, acknowledges his goal to start for Team Canada and much more, so click here to watch part three of the exclusive interview.

PUBLIC LANDS … In another coup of sorts for our county, I won the chairmanship of CCI's Public Lands committee for the next two years at last week's meeting. A coveted state leadership position, it puts me in line to helping direct CCI's lobbying efforts even more directly – and gives our county a bigger say in how public lands are treated in Colorado … The vote was close, but it was another indication of the blue-green shift in state politics that we see happening. I narrowly beat out the presumed next-in-line for the seat after the former chair's retirement this year. Commissioner John Martin of Garfield County, a Republican, had been serving as vice-chair, and expected to step into the seat vacated by retiring Commissioner Jake Klein of Otero County. Instead, I pulled a bit of an upset, and won the chair. Martin will continue to serve as vice-chair … Public Lands is particularly important as eight of its members, including the chair and vice-chair, are paid to attend National Association of County meetings three times a year – giving San Miguel County a larger say on the national stage vis-à-vis public lands, as well as the state scene.
WEEKLY QUOTA … "Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends – hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism – these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths. What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility, a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task." – Barack Hussein Obama, 44th President of the United States
DENNIS DAIGLE … Dennis was a good Green friend. When we started a local Green Party chapter in Telluride, he was one of the first to sign on. I didn't know him that well then, but I came to deeply appreciate his activism on behalf of a more ecologically sound community … We traveled to a state Green meeting one year, and I remember spending more time sharing stories with Dennis than listening to the Green candidates (all of whom lost) talking about their platforms and strategies. An intriguing man, he will be missed here.
ARNE NAESS … A Norwegian philosopher who took his values and principles beyond the classroom, he won fame as part of a protest against the flooding of Mardalsfossen waterfall in the Seventies where protesters chained themselves to the dam site … He is considered the founder and coiner of the term, Deep Ecology, and he was good friends with my teacher, the late Dolores LaChapelle of Silverton … Norwegian Sjur Paulson's movie, Loop, which featured Naess in its final scenes, played at the 2007 Mountainfilm festival here in Telluride … Naess died earlier this month at 96, although he was playing his piano up until last year.

This is the third pigtail bridge so far so I must like them. So far 2 are on roughly LP ish guitars I made and the 3rd is on a 2 cutaway semi hollow that normally I would have put a vibrato on. My initial comments about the tone pros studs suggested by SM still stand and I'm perfectly happy with standard studs and bushings I get in the UK which are easier to adjust and still sound as good as the tone pros studs.The 2 cutaway guitar sounds great with this bridge and Lace red at neck and a SD lil '59 at the bridge.The bridge is installed with no offset on the bass side.
My tech guy already fitted one of those on my '65 Gibson SG Junior (the nickel version though) with excellent results, but somehow I insisted on trying out a Tone Pros AVT- II with locking posts for my lastest project, a '80's Mosrite V88 body with a custom made neck. At the time to do the final set-up though, I noticed some twangy, banjo-like annoying buzzing coming from the G and B strings. I tried about 4 different sets of strings, all with different gauges (GHS and Ernie Ball) but nothing worked. So I got one of those Pigtails here and ditched the locking posts in favor of some traditional stainless steel posts too, and BAM! Problem solved. Improved sustain and the intonation seems easier to get right too. Now, if Callaham could clone this Pigtail design using the same technique and material they use for their ABR-1's, then there wouldn't be a better wraparound on the planet.
Gibson with studs not centered, so strings were not centered. Needed a wraparound without pre-notched inserts. This bridge worked perfect. Used tone-pro studs, and the action improved greatly.
I swapped out the original stock Gibson wraparound bridge with a Pigtail. I don't hear any signifigant change in the guitar's tone. From my point of view, that is a good thing. I think the sustain is about the same, maybe a little less but so close to the original I really can't tell for sure. Being able to intonate the guitar is really nice though. I've always been able to work around it with my fingers but it is nice none the less. I tried to use the original studs but the bridge tilted up in the stock posts; not good. I got a pair of the TonePros locking studs and problem solved. The locking studs also keep the bridge securely in position when restrining. There is zero buzz from this bridge, it really is exceptionally well made. Great on my LP Jr, perfect fit. Just buy the TonePros locking studs and swap the lot out. Keep the original in a box so you can put things back to stock and retain the guitar's value. It's really a straight swap with zero machining or fickering with the guitar. Probably the best bridge for a LP Jr out there.
Very pleased with this product. I used it in the restoration of an old 70s mongrel LP Jnr. Amazing difference. Sustain, attack and across the board tone are way improved. Also the radius and saddle spacing (once notched) are a lot more accurate than the original. The guitar has a very low profile, but there's plenty of room for positioning and intonation adjustment. Tonepros studs fitted perfectly into the existing metric posts, there's still a bit of lean but once locked tight, it's solid as a rock. One tip: put a 30 degree bend in the Tonepros spanner to avoid scratching anything.
I got this to replace the solid wraparound tailpiece on an old LP special. Intonation problems on that guitar made playing things higher on the fretboard sound slightly out of tune. Once I installed this, intonation problems were solved (with a little fiddling), and the tone is still as great as it used to be.
I purchased this bridge as an upgrade of the Schaller wraparound on my Bresett guitar. The tonal improvement was definitely noticeable with slighty enhanced mids and a more open tone. It also has more saddle adjustment than most wraparound bridges. I will include this bridge on future builds.
I had to recently switch out with the Schaller Bridge/Tailpiece, which to my surprise was poorly engineered - if you have to have the bridge set low on the Schaller, it FORCES you to dig the strings into your finish (Uhhhh, WOW!) so I "Settled" for this bridge, which I was a little hesitant about, mainly because I am not overly excited about products that put a "swine" reference in it.. all joking aside - this bridge was pretty awesome and the tone on my second build is beyond anyone's expectations - this is called "The Silver Willow" guitar - search for it on the net for some amazing photos and videos. Thanks Stewie!
Order this one, you're not gonna regret it. It replaced my PRS wraparound bridge, and improve its tone and intonation a lot!
I wanted to upgrade the "lightning bolt" bridges on my old SGs, so I could adjust the intonation easily. The Pigtail does the job beautifully. The stud spacing was perfect, unlike some others I tried, and it's nicely made of made of lightweight aluminum.

LOS ANGELES — James Gandolfini's lumbering, brutish mob boss with the tortured psyche will endure as one of TV's indelible characters.
James Gandolfini said he gravitated to acting as a way to get rid of anger. I don't know what exactly I was angry about." His first big break was a Broadway production of "A Streetcar Named Desire." While Tony Soprano was larger than life, Gandolfini was exceptionally modest.

A supporting actor for years, James Gandolfini vaulted to fame in 1999 as Tony Soprano, the north New Jersey mafia chieftain who sought counseling for panic attacks under the everyday pressures of raising a family and the stresses of life in organized crime. The series highlighted his vulnerabilities as a father and brutality as a mob boss.
The role gave him a chance to explore a complicated a criminal mind that transcended the characters that traditionally populate cime dramas. Frequently conflicted by his behavior and actions, Tony Soprano routinely cheated on his wife, bumped off disloyal captains and confessed his fears to a therapist played by Lorraine Bracco.
The series finale, which aired on June 10, 2007, and drew 11.9 million viewers, left fans to ponder Tony's fate. In the last scene, as the Soprano family gathered for a family meal at a restaurant, the screen suddenly went black - a sign, some said, that Tony had been rubbed out by one of his many accumulated enemies.
Series creator David Chase offered no additional clarity. "I have no interest in explaining, defending, reinterpreting or adding to what is there," Chase said in an interview published in New Jersey's Star-Ledger.
Gandolfini's role on "The Sopranos" won him a Golden Globe and three Emmy awards during the show's six seasons from 1999 to 2007, according to IMDB.com. The series was twice awarded Emmys for outstanding drama.

But his portrayal of criminal Tony Soprano in HBO's landmark drama series "The Sopranos" was just one facet of an actor who created a rich legacy of film and stage work in a life cut short.
Gandolfini, 51, who died Wednesday while vacationing in Rome, refused to be bound by his star-making role in the HBO series that brought him three Emmy Awards during its six-season run.
No cause of death was given by HBO and Gandolfini's managers Mark Armstrong and Nancy Sanders in a joint statement confirming his death.
Coroner Antonio Spasola at Rome's Policlinico Umberto I hospital, in the upscale Parioli neighborhood, declined to give a cause of death. Officials at the morgue confirmed that Gandolfini was brought there.
"He was a genius," said "Sopranos" creator David Chase. "Anyone who saw him even in the smallest of his performances knows that. He is one of the greatest actors of this or any time. A great deal of that genius resided in those sad eyes."
HBO called the actor a "special man, a great talent, but more importantly a gentle and loving person who treated everyone, no matter their title or position, with equal respect."
Organizers of the Taormina Film Festival in Sicily were scrambling to put together a tribute to Gandolfini, who had been expected to attend the festival's closing ceremony this weekend and receive an award. Organizers Mario Sesti and Tiziana Rocca said Gandolfini will instead be honored with a tribute "remembering his career and talent."
Sesti and Rocca said they had spoken to Gandolfini hours before his death "and he was very happy to receive this prize and be able to travel to Italy."
Joe Gannascoli, who played Vito Spatafore on the drama series, said he was shocked and heartbroken.
"Fifty-one and leaves a kid — he was newly married. His son is fatherless now. ... It's way too young," Gannascoli said.
Gandolfini and his wife, Deborah, who were married in 2008, have a daughter, Liliana, born last year, HBO said. The actor and his former wife, Marcy, have a teenage son, Michael.
Gandolfini's performance in "The Sopranos" was his ticket to fame, but he evaded being stereotyped as a mobster after the drama's breathtaking blackout ending in 2007.
In a December 2012 interview with The Associated Press, he was upbeat about the work he was getting post-Tony Soprano.
"I'm much more comfortable doing smaller things," Gandolfini said then. "I like them. I like the way they're shot; they're shot quickly. It's all about the scripts — that's what it is — and I'm getting some interesting little scripts."
He played Defense Secretary Leon Panetta in Kathryn Bigelow's Osama bin Laden hunt docudrama "Zero Dark Thirty." He worked with Chase for the '60s period drama "Not Fade Away," in which he played the old-school father of a wannabe rocker. And in Andrew Dominick's crime flick "Killing Them Softly," he played an aged, washed-up hit man.
On Broadway, he garnered a best-actor Tony Award nomination for 2009's "God of Carnage."
Deploying his unsought clout as a star, Gandolfini produced a pair of documentaries for HBO focused on a cause he held dear: veterans affairs.
He was mourned online in a flood of celebrity comments. "The great James Gandolfini passed away today. Only 51. I can't believe it," Bette Midler posted on her Twitter account.

Great Food, Great Music, Great Staff, Great Place! – I love Francesco's and highly recommend it to anyone that is looking for great Italian food. The portions are large, so be ready for left overs! The staff is ready to accommodate any questions or specific needs and are very friendly. They make sure their customers are well taken care of from the moment they sit down. I would recommend one of their seafood dishes and to sit on the patio. It's my favorite place to sit in the summertime and eat dinner. After dinner go into the lounge, their is live music and usually everyone is dancing until the early hours of the morning. It 's a great place to go on the weekends and is always a great experience.
Won't be going back. – I've been to Franchesco's several times and was there again over the weekend, which will be my last visit. I called around 6:45 to see if there were any open reservations for the evening and was shocked by the rude person answering the phone (later found out it was the owner). Went anyway without a reservation and did end up getting seated and served. The food was average at best, small portions, pricey, and the service was not on par with the pricing. For two people our bill was $130 and the experience and food was not worth it. There are too many good places to go that have better food and service that would treat their customer's properly. I've had several friends tell me there recent experiences were the same and that they are done with the place also.
My Favorite Restaurant! – I've been to Francesco's many times in the past could of months and I love it! Although the restaurant is somewhat smaller than other places in Hartford, so a reservation is needed, the food is great, the staff is friendly and the chef is willing to make your food just the way you want it! The lounge in the back is really fun for saturday nights, and I think that people should really make an effort to try it!! I would recommend it to anyone.
Great service, food, & entertainment – Been several times recently on Saturday nights- you need a reservation and it's worth it. Staff is curteous and goes out of their way to make you happy. After you eat, they will reserve you a table in the lounge area where there is live entertainment, and by 10/10:30, everyone is dancing. Always have a great experience here, highly recommended.

Kuchar's final-round 70 was enough for him to take home the trophy as third- round leader Kevin Na stumbled to a 4-over 76, which dropped him into a tie for seventh.
Na's loss followed a trend in which the 54-hole leader has failed to hold on to the lead. The last 54-hole leader to win the Players Championship was Stephen Ames in 2006.
Na dropped out of the lead on the front nine last year, paving the way for Kuchar to move in front. Martin Laird joined Kuchar atop the leaderboard with a birdie at the 13th. Kuchar birdied the 12th and Laird bogeyed No. 14 to give Kuchar a 2-shot lead.
At the 16th, Kuchar hit a tremendous shot from a fairway bunker to the green. He 2-putted for par and cruised home from there as Laird fell three back with a bogey at the last. Kuchar 3-putted for bogey at 17 to trim his lead, but parred the last for the biggest win of his career so far.
Kuchar added another big victory earlier this year when he claimed the WGC - Accenture Match Play Championship. That was one of four top-10 finishes for Kuchar this season. Since 2010, Kuchar leads the PGA Tour with 33 top-10 finishes. Luke Donald is two behind him, while five players are nine top-10s further back.
The field this week includes everyone ranked in the top 30 in the world, as well as 46 of the top 50 from the updated rankings. Jamie Donaldson, world No. 35, is the highest ranked player not competing this week.
Golf Channel has extensive coverage the first two days and early on the weekend before handing off to NBC for Saturday's and Sunday's afternoon coverage.
The PGA Tour returns to Texas for the next two weeks. First up is the HP Byron Nelson Championship, where Jason Dufner birdied the final hole last year to claim his second PGA Tour title in four weeks.
