Cleansing The Colon Naturally
February 19, 2015 By glennsines
When it comes to maintaining good health, there is no more important step than maintaining a health colon. According to Dr Bernard Jensen, world authority on colon cleansing with over 50 years' experience in colon cleansing, "it has become crystal clear that poor bowel management lie at the root of most people's health problems1". Dr Jensen claims he has treated over 300,000 patients at his clinic over the years. Another strong advocate of bowel cleansing, and one I started following some 35 years ago is Dr Norman Walker. He says, "Few of us realize that failure to effectively eliminate waste products from the body causes so much fermentation and putrefaction in the large intestine, or colon, that the neglected accumulation of such waste can, and frequently does, result in a lingering demise!2"
My Introduction to Colonic Irrigation
I first started reading books by these two gentlemen back in the late 1970s not long after I returned form an extensive vacation in South America. I returned home with a Peruvian I met on a train in that country, and she was complaining of not feeling well. Several visits to Doctors resulted in her being told she was making it up. As you can imagine this did not make us happy, so we started researching. IN those days Google didn't exist, so we started looking up Natural Therapists in the Yellow Pages. We came across a number who recommended juicing and colonic irrigations as a way to improve health and reduce toxicity. Two we visited were Thomas Fizel in Epping and Connie Vaccaro in Surrey Hills. A few days after starting Colonics, my partner's symptoms disappeared and never came back.
The results were so dramatic, we both signed up for a course of colonics, passing hundreds of litres of water through our bowels. I felt more energy and we were so impressed we purchased a machine of our own. To this day I still have occasional enemas to maintain good health.
For the next 6 years, my focus was on Natural Health. I would juice gallons with my juicer, got into Wheatgrass juice, addition of fiber to the diet, purchased and grew as much organic raw food as possible, and even purchased raw wheat and stone ground it into flour. I read every article and book I could find on the subject and concluded there was no documented evidence that any harm could come from doing these things. I must admit in modern times there are some precautions about Colon Cleansing. It is important to have a mineral rich diet, and not have this treatment if your bowel is very weak or perforated. For the rest of us it can produce massive improvement.
The Colon
If you study the anatomy of the colon, you will discover it has a horseshoe shape, Ideally faecal matter forms in the upper colon and is squeezed down the tube using peristaltic action until it is eliminated. Normally you would see remnants within 24-48 hours. If matter doesn't reach the other end within that period you have an issue. In the west people often experience less than 1 bowel movement a day, and it can take 3-7 days for some to complete the process. When transit time is this long, the colon starts to deteriorate, forming pockets of putrid material, the large intestine becoming distorted due to the weight of stagnant faecal matter, and clogging due to hardness of stools and lack of water to flush the organ out. Eventually the membranes on the bowel walls break down and autointoxification can occur where toxins move back through the bowel wall into the blood stream. This can be very dangerous.
Another major issue many face is prolapse of the colon where the top (transverse) section starts to droop in the middle. Gravity plays a part in this, and it further reduces the capacity of the organ to function efficiently. Bernard Jensen suggests that one of the reasons for this is the western toilet and tells us squatting to defecate is much preferred. I don't see myself doing this, but it is food for thought.
Symptoms Of A Sick Colon
Virtually any disease symptom may be traced to an issue in the Colon. While this may seem an excessive claim, think of it this way. The body is a complex organism. Under normal circumstances, we ingest nutrients in our food, extract nutrition to feed the cells, and discard what is left over into the intestines.
As the food passes through the intestines, additional nutrients are extracted and pass through the colon walls helping us get maximum benefit from our food. This is an important part of body functioning. If there are too many toxins, systems start to break down. First and foremost of these is the immune system, which is essential in preventing illness or disease. If your immune system has to expend too much energy fighting toxicity, you will feel tired and lacking energy, and eventually get sick. Keeping a strong immune system is important and there are certain supplements that can really assist here.
There has even been research establishing a connection between the brain and the colon. This means your mood and motions are to some extent controlled by what is going on in your bowel. In this way the Colon possesses intelligence, making keeping it healthy even more important.
Here is a personal story from one person outlining many of the illnesses that can show improvement after correct cleaning of the colon.
"Today in my 60th year, my health is the best it has ever been. Obviously, with a statement like that, my health has not always been good. The poor health conditions I had in September 1988 are shown below.
- Sinusitis – constant nasal drainage
- Asthma – occasional difficulty breathing
- Tonsillitis – perpetual sore throat
- Bronchitis – air passage infection
- Oesophageal spasm – difficulty swallowing
- Gastritis – two dozen Digel everyday
- Colitis – alternate constipation and diarrhoea
- Spastic Colon – lower back pain
- Haemorrhoids – protruding half inch with every bowel movement
- Bowel Movement Haemorrhaging – squirting raw blood with every bowel movement
- Arthritis – knees, elbows and fingers hurt and stiff.
- Bursitis – Lumbago, Rheumatism – shoulders hurt
- Gout – right foot swollen two sizes wider than left
- Boils – arms with many small boils-large pimples
- Migraine Headaches – frequent and severe
"That's quite a list. I have eliminated or minimised all of them without prescribed medication. The AMA identifies many of these symptoms as "Irritable Bowel Syndrome". According to the AMA Home Medical Encyclopedia, (c 1989), "the cause is not understood and their is no cure".
"I removed eight pounds of residual, putrefied, petrified food and waste material and parasites from my digestive system. I filled the toilet four times a day for eight weeks with stuff I had never seen before. It looked like three inch long by a quarter of an inch 80 wedges from an automobiles black, hard rubber radiator hose – or automobile tyre chunks.
"Eliminate this foul material and the body will correct its "Irritable Bowel Syndrome". Food particles had progressively coated and clogged my small intestine microvilli since I took my first meal. Nourishment could not get through this impacted toxic roofing tar-like layer. My micovilli were passing toxins from the spoiled particles to my blood. My body was being starved and poisoned at the same time because the microvilli could not function as intended. Waste was not eliminated. My microvilli were at least 95% contrafunctional.
"HERBAL DIETARY FIBRE removed the accumulated particles from my digestive system. This thorough cleaning restored my small intestine functions. Toxins continue to be removed from every cell in my body. Pharmacy laxatives and popular high-fibre foods do not have the cleaning power required to remove this compacted, toxic sludge. This product has allowed my body to heal itself.
Taken from "Cleansing the body and the colon for a happier and healthier you using Herbal Fiberblend" by Teresa Schumaker and Toni Schumaker Lund.
Intestinal parasites are a major cause of health issues. I have met a couple of people who discovered tape worms of over a metre living in their intestines. Once the tapeworm left the body, they had an amazing improvement in health. Another lady revealed her young son suffered from pinworm. She knew this because she could see them in his stools. Medical treatments such as combantrim failed to remove the parasites, and a trip to the Doctor and Colonoscopy revealed the bowel was all clear. Unfortunately the next day, more pinworms appeared. Cleansing the colon using a herbal mixture finally got rid of the parasites.
Hookworms, roundworms, giardia and other parasites thrive in an unhealthy colon. When you start getting the bowel back in shape, they leave, especially if you include some herbs that they don't like! Herbs such as pumpkin seeds, shavegrass, Violet, and black walnut hulls are particularly effective in eliminating intestinal parasites. Ridding the body of these invaders can take from a few days to many months. A report in the Miami Herald suggests that 1 in 4 are infected with some sort of intestinal parasites. As the name implies, they are energy sappers and slowly drain the strength from your body.
Parasites stick to the bowel walls and it can take more than colonic irrigations and enemas to get them to loosen their grip.
Colon Cleansers
While enemas and colonic irrigation are commonly used colon cleaning methods, there are a number of other ways to do this.
Doctors will use chemical enemas which stimulate the bowel and cause a rapid evacuation. This can, of course, cause permanent damage and possibly perforate the bowel. Regrettably most if not all medications are toxic, and will therefore add to the toxic body burden eventually leading to chronic conditions.
Dr Dennis Burkitt wrote a book back in the early 1980s suggesting we do not have enough fiber in the diet. Suggestions in Australia are 35 grams of fiber for females and 30g for males. The average person in the US or Australia consumes around 15 grams of fiber a day, well short of the recommendation. It is important to have adequate fiber for the bowels to work correctly as this helps carry toxins out of the body on a regular basis. Therefore any colon cleansing product should include adequate fiber.
There are numerous herbs and potions to cleanse the colon. Some are quick acting cleanses, while others are slower, allowing the large intestine to gradually recover. We prefer the latter type. Bulking the colon with fiber such as Psyllium Hulls helps, but is not enough to get things working as they should. Amongst all of these cures and treatments there is one that stands out. AIM Herbal Fiberblend Is a combination of 17 different herbs, designed to rejuvenate this most important organ. Virtually unchanged for over 20 years, this product gets results consistently and over an extended period.
If You Don't Fix The Problem
The consequences of a putrid colon left unattended are decaying of other organs and eventually death. Other organs that handle detoxification are the liver, kidneys and Thyroid, and any issues with these three can indicate an overload of toxins and issues with the colon. Attending to the colon is the first step in alleviating the issue, although not the only one. Extensive vegetable juicing, fasts, use of a greater quantity of water and liquid zeolite provide support to cleansing with a fiber product.
The beauty of fiberblend is that unlike colonic irrigations, it does not leach essential sodium and other salts form the body. You do have to be careful with nutritional imbalances with excessive passing of water through the body. People have become ill hiking the Kakoda trail from drinking too much water, because it reduced sodium levels.
There are a number of other colon cleansing products and systems available. While we don't have personal experience with them, they are often complicated to administer, expensive, or both.
Here is some promotional information from a site that sells these products. The site reference is coloncleanseguidedotorg

Social change colloquia past
Author Tom Fels and media artist Mark Tribe will speak on Tuesday, March 5, 2013, from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., in Room 2601 on Floor 26, of the Du Bois Library at UMass Amherst. The event, "Peace and War: Assessing the Legacies of Sixties Activism Today," marks the completion of the eighth annual Social Change Colloquium.
Longtime independent writer and researcher Tom Fels' new book Buying the Farm: Peace and War on a Sixties Commune (UMass Press, 2012) explores the long history of Montague Farm, north of Amherst, one of the era's iconic experiments in social change. Before drawing his own conclusions about it in the book, he recounts the farm's many early contributions to the counterculture, and later the farm's devolution at the hands of competing farm-family factions, inviting us to question the balance between idealism and effectiveness. "For today's young," says Tom Hayden, author of The Long Sixties, "the economic future is far more bleak and global warming an unprecedented threat. Out of necessity, many will be searching for meaningful forms of communal self-sufficiency, healthful food, and renewable energy. Tom Fels' captivating and profound reflection on one earlier commune, Montague Farm, founded in the 1960s, offers hard-learned reflections, some practical, some eternal, from a time when communes were the chosen path of many." In the first hour of the colloquium Fels will read from Buying the Farm. There will be a question and answer period following the reading.
Mark Tribe is part of the next generation to be inspired by sixties activism. His Port Huron Project (2006-2009) is a series of reenactments of protest speeches from the New Left movements of the Vietnam era. Enacted at the site of the original event, each speech was delivered by an actor or performance artist. Videos of these performances have been screened on campuses, exhibited in art spaces, and distributed online as open-source media. As Julia Bryan-Wilson wrote in Artforum, in January 2008, "More than just recovering the past, these re-speaking projects use archival speeches to ask questions about the current place of stridency and forceful dissent, and the possibilities of effective, galvanizing political discourse." In bringing the words of Cesar Chavez, Angela Davis, Stokely Carmichael, and others to the public through contemporary media, Tribe, in this portion of his work, creatively recycles earlier activism to relate it to issues of today. In the second hour of the colloquium, Tribe will show and discuss some of his work.
Delevingne will discuss the mass media's role in the nuclear power issue and his own responsibility before and after the Three Mile Island accident and Chernobyl disaster. Anna Gyorgy will discuss citizen action and democracy, with international examples based on her work with the Clamshell Alliance, and, more recently, with the strong German anti-nuclear/pro-solar movements.
New England was an epicenter of the antinuclear movement of the 1970s and 1980s. Sparked by the proposed construction of nuclear power plants in Montague, Massachusetts, and Seabrook, New Hampshire, a grass-roots movement blossomed in the region, drawing on a long tradition of non-violent political protest. Shortly after arriving in the United States from his native France in 1975, the photojournalist Lionel Delevingne began covering the antinuclear movement, including the history of civil disobedience and occupation at Seabrook, the aftermath of the Three Mile Island disaster, and other protests from New York to South Carolina and Europe.
Delevingne is the co-author of Drylands, a Rural American Saga (University of Nebraska Press, 2011); Northampton: Reflections on Paradise (Nouveau Monde Press, 1988); and Franco-American Viewpoints (Nouveau Monde Press/Wistariahurst Museum, 1988). His work has been exhibited frequently in the U.S. and abroad and published widely in the mainstream and alternative press, including the New York Times, Newsweek, Mother Jones, Vanity Fair, Le Figaro Magazine, and Die Zeit. Delevingne has participated in many award-winning projects sponsored by National Endowment of the Arts/Humanities (NEA), Massachusetts Endowment for the Humanities, University & College Designers Association (UCDA), University Professional & Continuing Education Association (UPCEA), and Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE).
Anna Gyorgy was active in the early movement against nuclear power, and is the author-editor of the classic work NO NUKES: Everyone's Guide to Nuclear Power (South End Press, 1979/1981). She is in the process of returning to the U.S. after 25 years abroad, where she has since 1999 coordinated the multi-lingual website project: "Women and Life on Earth" (www.wloe.org).
The related exhibit "To the Village Square" includes some of the movement's most memorable images, shot by Delevingne, along with materials drawn from the rich anti-nuclear collections held in the UMass Amherst Libraries' Department of Special Collections and University Archives.
Why These Stories Need to be Told in their Variety, their Intensity and their Honesty" (Nov. 10)
Social justice activist Tom Weiner will give a talk on his recently published book Called to Serve: Stories of Men and Women Confronted by the Vietnam War Draft. The book is the fruit of years of extensive interviews with chapters for people who made different choices among the available options: to serve, to resist, to leave the country, to become a conscientious objector, or to find a way around the draft altogether as well as a chapter for those who loved, counseled and supported. His presentation will include several of his interview subjects who will share parts of their testimonies. Weiner recently donated the tapes of the interviews and the transcripts to Special Collections and University Archives.
On Friday, October 1, Steve Lerner will talk about his new book Sacrifice Zones: The Front Lines of Toxic Chemical Exposure in the United States. The event will be held from 1.30-3pm in the Gordon Hall, 418 N. Pleasant Street, Amherst.
Across the United States, thousands of people, most of them in low-income or minority communities, live next to heavily polluting industrial sites. Many of them reach a point at which they say "Enough is enough." In Sacrifice Zones, published by MIT Press in 2010, Steve Lerner tells the stories of twelve communities, from Brooklyn to Pensacola, that rose up to fight the industries and military bases causing disproportionately high levels of chemical pollution.
Steve Lerner is research director of Commonweal and the author of Eco-Pioneers: Practical Visionaries Solving Today's Environmental Problems.
This event is co-sponsored by the Political Economy Research Institute's Environmental Working Group and Special Collections & University Archives
On Thurs. October 28, Amy Bass will talk on "Whose Broad Stripes and Bright Stars? The 1968 Olympics and the Creation of the Black Athlete," in Room 803, Campus Center, UMass Amherst. The event is co-sponsored by the Feinberg Family Lecture Series organized by the UMass Amherst Department of History, and is free and open to the public.
Amy Bass is professor of history at the College of New Rochelle. She is the author of Not the Triumph But the Struggle: 1968 Olympics and the Making of the Black Athlete and Those About Him Remained Silent: The Battle over W. E. B. Du Bois. She is the editor of In the Game: Race, Identity, and Sports in the Twentieth Century. Bass has an M.A. and a Ph.D. in history from Stony Brook University. Her research interests include African American history, modern American culture, identity politics, and historical theory and methodology. She has served as research supervisor for the NBC Olympic unit at the Atlanta, Sydney, Salt Lake, Athens, and Torino Olympic Games.
Dr. Bass's talk will explore the black power protest at the Mexico City Olympic Games by Americans Tommie Smith and John Carlos in 1968. Their moment on the victory dais effectively linked American sports and racial politics in the U.S. She will examine how the black power protest in Mexico became the defining image of the 1968 Olympics. She will also explore how the Olympic Project for Human Rights mobilized black athletes to assume a new set of responsibilities alongside their athletic prowess, forcing Americans, and the world, to reconsider the role of sports within civil rights movements.
- Speaker:
- Raymond Mungo
- Raymond Mungo was a key figure in the literary world of the late 1960s counterculture. A founder of the Liberation News Service — an alternative press agency that distributed news reflecting a left-oriented, antiwar, countercultural perspective — Mungo moved to Vermont during the summer of 1968 and settled on a commune. A novelist and writer, his first book, Famous Long Ago: My Life and Hard Times With Liberation News Service (1970) is considered a classic account of the countercultural left, and his follow-up Total Loss Farm (1971), based on his experiences on the Packer Corners commune, was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. Mungo has written several novels, screenplays, dozens of essays, and hundreds of newspaper and magazine articles during a literary career of more than four decades. For the past ten years, he has worked as a social worker in Los Angeles, tending primarily to AIDS patients and the severely mentally ill.
- Todd Gitlin
- While a college student in the early 1960s, Todd Gitlin rose to national prominence as a writer and theorist of the New Left. A president of Students for a Democratic Society in 1963-1964, he was a central figure in the civil rights and antiwar movements, helping to organize the first national mobilization against the war in Vietnam, the March on Washington of 1965. After receiving degrees from the University of Michigan and the University of California Berkeley, Gitlin joined the faculty at Columbia University, where he is currently Professor of Journalism and Sociology and Chair of the doctoral program in Communications. Over the past thirty years, he has written extensively on mass communication, the media, and journalism. The author of twelve books, Gitlin is today a noted public intellectual and prominent critic of both the left and right in American politics, arguing that pragmatic coalition building should replace ideological purity and criticizing the willingness of those on both sides to use violence to reach ends to power.
- Talk II:
- Thurs, Oct. 29, 2009, 4 p.m., Blake Slonecker, Assistant Professor of History at Waldorf College, will present a talk, "Living the Moment: Liberation News Service, Montague Farm, and the New Left, 1967-1981.
- Speaker:
- Junius Williams
- Writer and activist.
- Parker Donham
- Journalist and former press secretary for Eugene McCarthy
- Speaker:
- Tom Hayden
- Fmr President of Students for a Democratic Society
For nearly fifty years, Tom Hayden's name has been synonymous with social change. As a founding member of the Students for a Democratic Society in 1961, he was author of its visionary call, the Port Huron Statement, the touchstone for a generation of activists. As a Freedom Rider in the Deep South in the early 1960s, he was arrested and beaten in rural Georgia and Mississippi. As a community organizer in Newark's inner city in 1964, he was part of an effort to create a national poor people's campaign for jobs and empowerment.
When the Vietnam War invaded American lives, Hayden became a prominent voice in opposition, organizing teach-ins and demonstrations, writing, and making one of the first trips to Hanoi in 1965 to meet with the other side. One of the leaders of the street demonstrations against the war at the 1968 Chicago Democratic Convention, he was one of eight organizers indicted — and eventually acquitted — on charges of conspiracy and incitement.
After the political system opened in the 1970s, Hayden organized the grass-roots Campaign for Economic Democracy in California, which won dozens of local offices and shut down a nuclear power plant through a referendum for the first time. He was elected to the California state assembly in 1982, and the state senate ten years later, serving eighteen years in all, and he has twice served on the national platform committee of the Democratic Party.

As part of its annual Colloquium on Social Change, the Department of Special Collections and University Archives of UMass Amherst presents a panel discussion and readings from a new book, Time it Was: American Stories from the Sixties, a set of short memoirs written by people who participated in a wide variety of Sixties-era movements and events. Join us for speakers Johnny Flynn (American Indian Movement), Sheila Lennon (Woodstock), Tim Koster (Draft Lottery "Winner" and Conscientious Objector), and Karen Manners Smith, who spent five years in a religious cult.
For students, the readings and discussion provide an opportunity to hear stories that move beyond Sixties mythology towards an appreciation of the real — but no less exciting — experiences of young people in that tumultuous era. Non-students and members of the Five College and surrounding communities will find this panel discussion a chance to reconnect with their own memories of the period.

Solander, Arvo A.
Arvo A. Solander Papers, 1930-1958.
Call no.: MS 587
Graduating from Harvard in the thick of the Great Depression, Arvo A. Solander worked as a civil and sanitary engineer for a variety of state and federal agencies, including the Civil Works Administration and the Civilian Conservation Corps. During the 1930s, as opportunity arose, he filled positions as a road engineer, in the design and construction of water and sewage plants, in pollution control, as a safety engineer in the shellfish industry, and in mosquito control, taking jobs throughout Massachusetts and as far away as Tennessee. After using his talents as an officer in the Sanitary Corps during the Second World War, based primarily in Arkansas, Solander returned home to Massachusetts and opened a private engineering office in South Hadley. He worked as a civil engineer and surveyor until his death in January 1976.
The Arvo Solander Papers consists of twenty-four bound volumes documenting thirty years of varied work as an engineer, including his contributions to the construction of the Quabbin Reservoir. Within the bound volumes are a wide range of reports, typescripts, sketches and diagrams, graphs, contracts and design specifications, photographs, and postcards.

Topol, Sidney
Sidney Topol Papers, 1944-1997.
Call no.: MS 374
An innovator and entrepreneur, Sidney Topol was a contributor to several key developments in the telecommunications industries in the latter half of the twentieth century. A graduate of the University of Massachusetts (1947) and an engineer and executive at Raytheon and later Scientific-Atlanta, Topol's expertise in microwave systems led to the development of the first effective portable television relay links, allowing broadcasts from even remote areas, and his foray into satellite technologies in the 1960s provided the foundation for building the emerging cable television industry, permitting the transmission of transoceanic television broadcasts. Since retiring in the early 1990s, Topol has been engaged in philanthropic work, contributing to the educational and cultural life in Boston and Atlanta.
The product of a pioneer in the telecommunications and satellite industries and philanthropist, this collection contains a rich body of correspondence and speeches, engineering notebooks, reports, product brochures, and photographs documenting Sidney Topol's forty year career as an engineer and executive. The collection offers a valuable record of Topol's role in the growth of both corporations, augmented by a suite of materials stemming from Topol's tenure as Chair of the Electronic Industries Association Advanced Television Committee (ATV) in the 1980s and his service as Co-Chair of a major conference on Competitiveness held by the Carter Center in 1988.

Wood, Robert Coldwell, 1923-2005
Robert Coldwell Wood Papers, 1964-1977.
Call no.: RG 003/3 W66
A distinguished political scientist, specialist on urban affairs, and advisor to two U.S. Presidents, Robert Coldwell Wood was named the first President of the new University of Massachusetts system. A graduate of Princeton and Harvard (PhD 1949), Wood built his academic reputation on the faculty at MIT. An advisor to John F. Kennedy on urban policy, he served in the Johnson administration as Under-Secretary, and briefly Secretary, of Housing and Urban Development before coming to UMass in 1970. His Presidency was marked by considerable turmoil as he navigated the reorganization of the university into a system of three campuses and as he struggled with discontent among students and faculty and conflict with the legislature. Wood died in April 2005 at the age of 81.
Although far from a comprehensive record, the Wood papers offer insight into the tumultuous tenure of Robert C. Wood as President of the University of Massachusetts, 1970-1977. The largest series in the collection (Series 2) consists of the central office files from Boston, including a fairly full record of outgoing correspondence, materials on staff and facilities at the various campuses, minutes of meetings and reports, and records of Wood's numerous trips and lecture engagements while in office.

Radical Student Union (RSU)
Radical Student Union Records, 1905-2006 (Bulk: 1978-2005).
Call no.: RG 045/80 R1
Founded by Charles Bagli in 1976, the Revolutionary Student Brigade at UMass Amherst (later the Radical Student Union) has been a focal point for organization by politically radical students. RSU members have responded to issues of social justice, addressing both local, regional, and national concerns ranging from militarism to the environment, racism and sexism to globalization.
The RSU records document the history of a particularly long-lived organization of left-leaning student activists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Beginning in the mid-1970s, as students were searching for ways to build upon the legacy of the previous decade, the RSU has been a constant presence on campus, weathering the Reagan years, tough budgetary times, and dramatic changes in the political culture at the national and state levels. The RSU reached its peak during the 1980s with protests against American involvement in Central America, CIA recruitment on campus, American support for the Apartheid regime in South Africa, and government-funded weapons research, but in later years, the organization has continued to adapt, organizing against globalization, sweatshops, the Iraq War, and a host of other issues.

Greenwich (Mass.)
Greenwich (Mass.) Collection, 1734-1940.
Call no.: MS 011
Granted in 1737 and incorporated in 1754, Greenwich, Mass., was the first town in the Swift River Valley settled by Europeans. Sitting astride the East and Middle branches of the Swift River and forming the eastern boundary of Hampshire County, Greenwich was primarily an agricultural town with light manufacturing and, beginning in the later nineteenth century, an active tourist trade. The town's population peaked at over 1,100 early in the nineteenth century, declining slowly thereafter.
The records of Greenwich, Mass., offer a long perspective on the history of the region inundated to create the Quabbin Reservoir. The core of this collection consists of the records of town meetings and the Selectmen of Greenwich from the Proprietary period in the 1730s through disincorporation in 1938, but there is some documentation of the town's Congregational Church, a local school, the library, and the Greenwich Improvement Society. This finding aid reflects both materials held by SCUA and materials digitized in partnership with the Swift River Valley Historical Society in New Salem, Mass.

text: Once again I have the opportunity to boast about the excellence of the Auburn Symphony under the direction of Maestro Michael Goodwin. This past weekend, Oct. 24-25, Maestro Goodwin took us on a journey , a musical tour actually, of Mussorgsky's amazing original piano masterpiece showing us how its full potential was realized in Ravel's vivid orchestration. The audience loved the piece and responded with shouts of "bravo" and clapping that went on for quite a while. Congratulations, Maestro and orchestra. It was truly magnificent. Curtis Kidwell was our guest soloist playing the oboe, and was brilliant. We are so fortunate to have Curtis as the principal oboist with the Auburn Symphony. Congratulations to you, Curtis. Before the orchestra played, Jennifer Keck, our former executive director, was acknowledged and thanked for her years and many hours spent pulling everything together making the Auburn Symphony work so perfectly. Thanks again, Jennifer. We miss and love you more than ever. The Auburn Symphony is no longer a "hidden treasure." It is the greatest treasure Auburn has. With great appreciation I thank you, Auburn Journal, for your support in printing our ads and articles. Pat Steidel, Auburn

Picture: Josh Brolin 23rd Santa Barbara International Film Festival - Santa Barbara, California - 30.01.08
LATEST: Police officers who arrested actors Josh Brolin and Jeffrey Wright have submitted video footage of the alleged bar brawl in Louisiana to legal officials for review.
Cast and crew of Oliver Stone's forthcoming George Bush biopic W were celebrating its wrap on Saturday (12Jul08) when they allegedly got involved in a fight between revellers at the Stray Cat bar in Shreveport.
Brolin, Wright and five crew members were arrested.
Police Chief Henry Whitehorn has since submitted video footage of the alleged incident to the city prosecutor's office, which will decide whether to proceed with charges.
Whitehorn says the footage has come from patrol car cameras and audio from officers' microphones, however he would not elaborate on the content. Wright and Brolin were arrested at 2am after they allegedly tried to impede local police officers who were splitting up the brawl.
The pair received misdemeanour charges for interfering with police, and posted a $334 (GBP167) cash bond the same night.
They are all due back in court on 2 December (08).

The rules of TRAX are simple: place tiles adjacent to those already in play such that the colours of the tracks match. The objective is to get a loop or line of your colour while attempting to stop your opponent in their colour. What gives Trax its strategic depth is the forced play rule which allows (or even requires) multiple tiles to be played in a turn.

CSRmesh™ Development Kit accelerates Internet of Things product development
Development kit enables rapid deployment of Bluetooth® Smart prototypes using game-changing CSRmesh protocol
Cambridge, UK and San Jose, California, USA
Bluetooth® innovator CSR plc (LSE: CSR; NASDAQ: CSRE) today announces the launch of its CSRmesh™ Development Kit, which will allow developers to get hands on with the recently launched CSRmesh Bluetooth Smart protocol. The kit, which became available from selected CSR distributors from July 2014, includes development boards, a USB programmer and access to the development platform (SDK) which includes example applications to accelerate the development of new low power connected Internet-of-Things (IoT) products. The SDK is initially offered with software supporting networked lighting applications, with updates for home automation and other IoT applications based on CSRmesh due later in the year.
The technically disruptive CSRmesh protocol, which launched earlier this year, allows for an almost unlimited number of Bluetooth Smart enabled devices to be simply networked together and controlled directly from a single smartphone, tablet or PC for the first time. The solution combines a configuration and control protocol with CSR's proven Bluetooth Smart devices, including the CSR101x™ family. CSRmesh has already been adopted by several Tier-One lighting manufacturers, including Samsung, for its smart lighting solutions.
"We are seeing Bluetooth Smart underpinning many more products as the Internet-of-Things shifts from concept to reality," says Rick Walker, Marketing Manager for IoT at CSR. "By launching the CSRmesh Development Kit we are equipping developers with the tools they need to innovate and take advantage of the many opportunities offered by the IoT. We are helping them to bring networked devices to market as quickly and simply as possible."
The CSRmesh protocol uses Bluetooth Smart to send messages to other Bluetooth Smart devices in the network, which in turn relay them onward. Messages can be addressed to individual devices or groups of devices. It is also possible for devices to belong to multiple groups. Control is enabled via any recent smartphone that supports the Bluetooth Smart standard, or via standard control devices such as light switches or control panels that have been Bluetooth Smart enabled.
"From the time CSR shipped the first single chip Bluetooth device almost 15 years ago, to the launch of CSRmesh this year, CSR has maintained its leadership position in the Bluetooth market by driving innovation," says Anthony Murray, Senior Vice President, Business Group at CSR. "Making this innovation accessible to developers in an easy to use kit is an important part of our strategy, allowing them to use our technology to create an exciting next generation of IoT devices."
The CSRmesh Development Kit features:
- 3x CSRmesh Bluetooth Smart development boards
- 1x USB programmer
- Batteries and Setup Guide
Developers can also purchase additional CSRmesh Development Boards to expand their mesh development and testing. The full CSRmesh development kit is now available from selected CSR distributors from $299. Additional development boards can be purchased from $49 each. Information on CSR's range of Bluetooth Smart development tools and kits as well as technical support can be found via forum.csr.com and WiKi.csr.com.

Hurricane Sandy-Damaged Pier
While the incredible sunset over Barnegat Bay captures your attention first, it is the pier that tells the story. Hurricane Sandy ravaged the New Jersey coast and this pier going out into Barnegat Bay remains witness to the event.
This is an HDR image. Read the HDR article in the tips section of the site for the full story on this one.
16mm f/11.0 20s ISO 100
Getting Creative with Your Shadow
I usually make an effort to keep my shadow out of the frame, but sometimes ... I incorporate it into a composition. I was actually shooting from a tripod, but tried a simulated handheld photo pose for this shot. LOL - this is about as much of me as you will see in our family photos. Aside from what the kids capture here and there.
16mm f/11.0 1/13s ISO 100
Happy Birthday!
Shooting a group of people in a tight space is a good time to pull out the ultra-wide angle lens. Ultra-wide angle focal lengths are not going to be the most-pleasing option from a perspective standpoint (notice how large that left-most foot looks?), but sometimes getting everyone in the shot is more important.
16mm f/5.6 1/50s ISO 640
Fiery Sky Over Barnegat Bay
I still had a 4.5 hour drive home after this sunset settled down at 8:30 this evening. But the late night was so worth it. It would have been hard to design a better end of day show.
Note that the sun had set about 15 minutes prior to this photo, taken at the peak of sky color. Don't pack up until the sky goes dark as you might miss the best part of the show.
28mm f/11.0 1/8s ISO 100
Decorated for Christmas
See those straight lines at the right edge of the frame? Those lines are unforgiving of lens distortion. At 28mm, this is doing a nice job at keeping those lines straight – at least in that portion of the frame. A level camera is also needed for that edge to remain straight.
28mm f/16.0 15s ISO 200
The Outhouse
The outhouse from a long-abandoned one-room schoolhouse sits alone at the top of the hill. Shooting this scene backlit provides bright grass and dark shadows. With the sun being low, those shadows are also very long.
As this lens is prone to flare, positioning the sun mostly behind the tree reduced flaring and gave me a nice burst of light.
16mm f/11.0 1/40s ISO 100
Boardwalk to the Beach
A wooden boardwalk leads over the dunes to a beach with a wave that is starting to break directly in line with the end of the walkway. An ultra-wide angle focal length allows a vast amount of the boardwalk to be included in the frame. And makes it possible to have everything in the frame in focus.
16mm f/16.0 1/25s ISO 160
Beach Flag Code Sign
Even with a wide open f/2.8 aperture at this lens' longest focal length, the background does not become diffusely blurred unless the subject is near minimum focus distance.
28mm f/2.8 1/320s ISO 100

I have mixed feelings on this fight Peej. On the one hand I feel that Lamont can outbox Lucas, but that Lucas is going to rock him no matter what and possibly, at least knock him down. On the other hand, Matthysse is a beast. Plain and simple. He has incredible KO power and he can take a punch himself. It should be a great fight.Posted May 15, 2013 9:59 pm

Just For Fun Cake
- Uploaded By Purseonality
- 2008-02-25 05:39:02
Had a meeting and needed a cake. Originally used the cake itself as a practice cake for an upcoming wedding. I did not like the look of the first try, so I ripped of the white choc fondant and redid it with brown chocolate fondant and shared at my meeting. It was a small 6" cake, but was fun and quick to throw together.
