Jardin Majorelle, Marrakech
The house was originally constructed for Jacques Majorelle in the 1930s and from the beginning, the walls were painted in 'Majorelle blue'. He designed a garden around the Art Deco house with the rare and exotic plants he'd collected worldwide.
The garden was first opened to the public in 1947, but fell into disrepair after his death in 1962. It was saved from developers when Pierre Berge and Yves Saint Laurent bought it in 1980 and since then the garden has been restored, with many plants added.
Following Saint Laurent's death in 2008, the garden passed to a new non profit 'fondation' to ensure the conservation and maintenance of the property. The fondation has already opened a fascinating Berber museum within the grounds and are currently working on the 'Musee Yves Saint Laurent' which is due to open later this year.
I previously visited this garden in 2006 with two primary age children in tow. I remember worrying that a garden visit was likely to be very painful, but actually the combination of spiky cacti, bright colours and, most particularly, turtles in the pool proved a winning combination.
Fast forward to 2017 and the turtles have gone, but the other elements are still very much in evidence.
Unlike the Jardin Secret, this garden is outside the centre of Marrakech and the entrance is off what feels like a residential street, but like the Jardin Secret, there is significant use of water in the design.
It doesn't have the striking layout of the Jardin Secret, and is definitely busier, but its still a fascinating space with much to recommend it. Perhaps I'll return in another ten years to check our the new museum.
Oh, and if you're wondering how they keep that blue paint looking so fresh…
Le Jardin Secret, Marrakech
If you want a wonderfully detailed account of this garden, including the history, do head over to the Frustrated Gardener who visited late last year (and in much sunnier weather!)
I realised when we were forced to land in Casablanca to refuel (due to a 40 mile wide thunderstorm sitting over the Marrakech airport) that the weather for our short trip was unlikely to be balmy, and indeed it wasn't. Having said that, by Saturday the weather had improved, and by Sunday (when I took my 'Aloe Aloe' Wordless Wednesday picture) the sky was a fabulous blue. Sadly, on Friday when we went garden visiting, all was rather grey.
Le Jardin Secret is situated in Marrakech's central souk and is an extraordinary oasis amongst the chaos. It has been open less than a year after a redesign by Tom Stuart-Smith and a fabulous renovation. It is an absolute triumph.
The space consists of two separate gardens, the first square and the second rectangular which abut on a corner, each largely invisible from the other.
In this photo you can see the exotic garden to the middle right, with the second, larger, Islamic garden in the main part of the picture. The link between the two is deliberately small, creating a contrast between the narrow link and the wider gardens themselves.
The first photo is of the exotic garden, looking back to elegant reception building seen at the rear. The view looking the other way, as you first enter the exotic garden, is below.
Whilst not a huge fan of battleship grey, it makes a striking back drop for the wonderfully textured planting and the colourful Aloes.
I love this Dasylirion acrotrichum – it reminds me of Heatherwick's ill fated 'B of the Bang'.
Although the exotic garden is segmented and symmetrical, the larger Islamic garden is even more strictly laid out. The rectangular shape is split into four quadrants, with each quadrant further split into four.
And whereas the planting in the exotic garden is contemporary and from all over the world, the planting in the Islamic garden is much more traditional with repeated planting of olive, pomegranate, fig and date. Only the herbaceous planting underneath the trees is a modern interpretation of the original swept earth.
The grasses really were extraordinary en masse like this.
Throughout both gardens are beautiful rills and fountains, with water being an essential element in Islamic gardens.
The original water system in Marrakech utilised ground drainage tunnels (established in the late eleventh century) which carried water from the Atlas mountains into the city's mosques, hammams and some of the great houses, including Le Jardin Secret.
An exhibiton shows numerous photos taken during the renovation, including this one of the painstaking tile work
From the Islamic garden we climbed up to first floor level above the Oud el Ward pavilion to lunch in the new cafe.
From here we climbed a further beautifully tiles staircase
to the top of the tower, from where the layout of the garden was clear. As the website says "The garden is as a matter of fact a metaphor of heaven; it is a sacred place, laid out according to rigid geometrical rules, in which the Muslim order asserts itself over the wild disorder of nature." Heaven indeed.
Just time to admire one of my favourite plants, Melianthus major, before running the gauntlet of the hawkers once more….
Spanish stepping
Just back from a fabulous walking holiday in Spain, this time in the mountains behind Alicante, staying in the charming Casa Carrascal in the village of Parcent.
And again, like last year's week, the wild flowers were stupendous,
including Pyramidal and
Woodcock orchids.
Enough of all that, back to the City smoke tomorrow…
(New) England summer
Years ago I holidayed in New England, pregnant with the son who turned eighteen last New Year's Eve, an event which in part triggered the creation of this blog.
And this summer we returned, with son and daughter in tow, conscious that this may well be our last family holiday.
The first week was spent in Boston where I felt quite seriously devoid of floral life. There were however, some incredible 'faux' flora to entertain me. Firstly those at the Harvard Museum of Natural History. The museum has an extraordinary collection of glass flowers (including the Penstemon above) made by German father and son Leopold and Rudolf Blaschka, who were commissioned to produce the incredibly detailed and accurate flowers for use in teaching botany at the university.
The blooms were made by softening the glass – initially painted and later the glass itself was coloured – and then blowing or shaping it, often relying on wire supports for structure. As well as creating the blooms they often created magnified models of plant parts:
There are over 3,000 models representing 830 plant species, and whilst some were a little dusty and uninspiring, the vast majority were perfectly astonishing. I find it hard to fathom the expertise required to create accurate botanical drawings, but the idea of creating these models in 3D is just extraordinary – particularly bearing in mind the commission began in 1886.
Keeping with the glass theme, the Museum of Fine Art had a magnificent sculpture by American artist Dale Chihuly. I remember when he exhibited in both the V&A and also Kew Gardens and think he is an amazing innovator.
See 'Lime Green Icicle Tower' below, admittedly not very flowery, but you've got to admire the scale!
And to finish the faux theme, a gorgeous little crocheted fig.
With regard to real blooms, the only garden I managed to visit in Boston itself was the Boston Public Garden, where the planting was, whilst not really to my taste, certainly striking.
I'm still in New England as I post this (Rockport MA actually), so if any of of my US readers have any suggestions for gardens to visit in the area I'd be delighted to hear from you.

I discovered this skirt in the current February 2007 issue of Lucky Magazine (page 142) and I'm kind of in love. :] 'Cept its $388.00 "Ah... no."
I've already got some plaid flannel that I plan to use to sew the skirt myself... I'm going to bleach it a bit to give it a similar faded look...
I just can't seem to figure out how the pieces of the skirt would go together... It looks to me like its made up of drastically flared segments gathered up in a bubble hem... but its a little tricky to tell exactly what's going on.
Any thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated!
PS: Sorry about the poor picture quality... I searched forever online for a better photo of the skirt but to no avail... I ended up scanning it straight from the magazine. :/

May 30th, 2014
Conservative estimates from a 1999 study released by Boston College's Center on Wealth and Philanthropy (CWP) predicted national wealth transfer in a 55-yr period from 1998 to 2052 would amount to $40.6 trillion in 1998 dollars, which translates into $52 trillion in 2007 dollars.
CWP has updated those numbers, and the wealth transfer is expected to be higher.
An estimated $59 trillion will transfer from 93.6 million American estates between 2007 to 2061, according to CWP's updated study, which would amount to the greatest transfer of wealth in U.S. history.
While federal taxes will claim $5.6 trillion, and heirs will receive $36 trillion, charities are expected to receive nearly $27 trillion, in a combination of estate bequests and lifetime giving.
Read more in an article from the Philanthropy News Digest, or download the press release and full report from the CWP.

Remembering Two Political Crusaders in Government
Former President Jimmy Carter and the late Congressman Claude Pepper will always be remembered for combating the complexities of our society by sponsoring legislation that legitimized sufficient welfare for all humanity. President Carter served as the 39th president of the U.S. from 1977-1981. Carter also served as a member of the Democratic Party and as Governor of Georgia prior to his election as president. Claude Pepper was a Democratic politician who was elected into the Florida House of Representatives in 1928 and served from 1929-1930. Pepper represented Florida in the U.S. Senate from 1936-1950 and in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1962 until his death on May 30, 1989.
During that time period, Carter and Pepper shared a loyal friendship and comradery in government which proved to be a conscientious commitment to securing the rights and liberties of all citizens. The trailblazers advocated for health and education reform, overturning segregation and providing equal housing and job opportunities for all races including women, the handicapped and the aging population. The two also helped pass the Mandatory Retirement Bill in 1986 which abolished age discrimination in the workplace. Throughout their exemplary careers, they both remained steadfast during moments of opposition by the Republicans and their own Democratic party. Despite opposition, both leaders worked towards eradicating ignorance and delving into public policies by levying Republicans and Democrats to form an alliance, conducive to creating good government.
Amazingly, Carter and Pepper shared similar backgrounds. Both men were raised around African Americans who were loyal friends that worked beside their families each day. As young men they both witnessed families living in poverty stricken areas who lacked adequate healthcare, food or housing. They were raised in Christian homes in rural areas in the south where electricity and indoor plumbing were uncommon. Carter was born on October 1, 1924 in Plains, Georgia on a peanut farm owned by his father, James Earl Carter Sr. Claude Pepper was born on September 8, 1900 in Chambers County, Alabama in a poverty stricken rural area. Pepper's parents (Joseph and Lena Pepper) were sharecroppers. Even though both men grew up in remote areas, their families embraced the importance of receiving an education which equipped them for their aspirations in life. The pure nature of humble beginnings bestowed a notion of morality and validity in leadership among these courageous men. Thus, allowing Pepper and Carter to vigorously use their platform in government to harness the needs of others by serving as a surrogate to reduce impoverishment in our society.
Today the Claude Pepper Library & Museum at Florida State University holds the Claude Pepper Papers which contains correspondence that exhibits Carter and Pepper support and respect for each other. These materials are available for researchers and may be discovered through the collection's finding aid. The library also displays several photographs of the two leaders attending various events and solidifying legislation together not only in the Claude Pepper museum but through DigiNole, the FSU Digital Repository.
We invite all researchers from various backgrounds to come in and take a glimpse back into time on how several politicians have changed the scope of government to maximize various opportunities that we are all benefiting from today. We hope that our collection will not only educate you but inspire each of you to be great leaders of merit academically and professionally.

The Mud Angels: Florence During the Flood
Today's blog post was written by Lindsay Fasce, a senior history major and Heritage Protocol & University Archives intern.
As of 2017, the Florida State University has a vast international studies program, which offers just under 50 programs in over 15 countries around the world. This program has grown rapidly since the launch of the first study abroad program in the fall of 1966, when 120 university students traveled to Florence, Italy for an 8-month program in the historical city. While in Florence, the students and faculty witnessed the flooding of the city when the Arno River broke its banks and poured into the city streets. They joined the aid effort to help the city protect, salvage, and preserve the priceless works of art and manuscripts damaged in the flood.
As an intern with Heritage Protocol & University Archives, I was given the task of researching these students and the efforts they made to help the city of Florence. This project began just in time for the former students to return to Florida State University in April of 2017 for a 50th reunion celebration.
I started from the beginning, searching through the existing materials in the archives for information on the inaugural Florence program. I then read through and studied all the donated materials from the alumni. I was able to use the materials I found with those donated to the archives recently to attain a better understanding of what happened leading up to the flood and the events succeeding the flood.
In 1964, Dean Dr. Ross Oglesby brought a group of Flying High Circus students on a performance tour through Europe. While in Europe, Dr. Oglesby was inspired by his surroundings and developed the idea for a study abroad program that would be conducted in the historical Italian city of Florence. The idea developed into a program, and with the help of a Florence Committee under President Blackwell, the program opened in the fall semester of 1966 headed by Dr. Conrad Tanzy.
Students interested in the program received brochures with information on the program costs, the curriculum, faculty, the facilities, and the application process. Once the applications were turned in and interviews conducted, 120 students were chosen to participate in the inaugural Florence study abroad program. Not only were the students and their families excited about the Florence program, the communities of the chosen students began to cover their stories and interview them on their upcoming historical trip. After months of preparation, the selected students flew out of New York on August 1, 1966, and arrived in Florence on September 1, 1966, for eight months of study in Italy.
The students and faculty were housed in the Hotel Capri, located close to the heart of Florence, just west of the Arno River. The Hotel Capris was not the first facility considered to house the program when Dr. Oglesby was developing and planning the idea of a study abroad program with the Florence Committee. While in Europe in 1964, he met an Italian Countess in Florence who wanted to sell her Villa to the University to use for the program. Florida State University officials informed the committee that the University, as an institution, could not buy property and they would have to find accommodations elsewhere. The program was then moved to the Hotel Capri, as its size could efficiently handle the program and its location was advantageous to the students and faculty studying in Florence.
The first days of November brought unwavering heavy rains that filled the dams along the Arno River. On November 4, 1966, the waters of the Arno River broke through the embankment and flooded Florence. Flood waters reached threatening levels in the blocks surrounding the river and caused damage as well as casualties. When the flood waters receded, it left deep deposits of mud and silt in its wake, mixed with spilled oil from cars caught in the flood. The mud made rescue and clean-up efforts difficult, and every passing day added to the destruction of the priceless art works and manuscripts housed in Florence. The Hotel Capris, the home of the FSU Florence program, was far enough away from the river where damage was minimal and all the students were safe, but the hotel was without power. The students had the choice to travel back home, but all the students and faculty decided to remain in Florence. President John E. Champion sent letters to the guardians of the students informing them of the situation and the students' decision to stay in Florence.
Volunteers that aided in flood relief efforts were later called the "gli angeli del fango," or "Mud Angels." Among these Mud Angels were Florida State students who assisted volunteers with digging through the mud and oil to preserve priceless artwork and manuscripts. The students trudged through the mud every day to libraries and churches to help with disaster recovery, then returned to their hotel covered in mud which still had no power or running water. After many days of aid work, the risk to the student's health grew too great and the students and faculty were sent to Rome until conditions improved. In Rome, the students were awarded a certificate by the City of Rome officials for all their efforts to aid Florence and were even thanked by Pope Paul VI. In March 1967, the students left Florence and returned home safe. In 2016, the 50th anniversary of the flood, the students were invited back to Florence to be awarded and thanked for all their efforts.
Emmett Till & the Press: The Davis Houck Papers
One of our most meaningful projects in Special Collections & Archives is the management of the Emmett Till Archives. The Till Archives collects, preserves, and provides access to primary and secondary source material related to the life, murder, and memory of Emmett Louis Till, whose death in 1955 is significant in the history of the African-American Civil Rights Movement. Our most comprehensive resource for researchers interested in national press coverage of the Till murder and related events is the Davis Houck Papers.

A Stereoscopic Multi-Dimensional Experience
The Digital Library Center partnered with the Department of Art History to host a UROP student this semester, Chase Van Tilburg. Here is a bit about him and his work over the last two semesters.
My name is Chase Van Tilburg, I am working towards my Bachelor's of Arts in Art History and my Masters of Arts in Museum and Cultural Heritage Studies. I currently work for University Housing as a Resident Assistant. In Fall 2016 I was granted the life changing opportunity to be a part of the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP). Through UROP I was introduced to the John House Stereograph Collection.
Going into this project, I was both excited and nervous. I truly did not know what to expect. I began with little knowledge of digital archival work and of what a Digital Archivist was. While working with the John House Stereograph Collection, I really looked deep into the images when identifying them. With each card I wrote metadata for, it felt as if I was a part of the image. Documenting each card forced me to dig deep into the historical and visual context of each image and do detailed research into each card to properly identify the locations, monuments, and architecture.
Working with this collection I realised that it is not enough to just look at the cards on the computer. The experience of physically handling each card and viewing them stereoscopically is an extraordinary and vital experience, one in which I want to make available to everyone. To do this I am taking this collection beyond the 2D digital image and am taking these cards into the 3D realm by scanning each card into a 3D model with the help of the FSU Morphometrics Lab. This project helped me to discover a passion for Museum and Cultural Heritage Studies, and for that, I will be forever grateful.
Frederick C. Jackson Collection online
The Institute on World War II and the Human Experience has partnered with the Digital Library Center to bring selections of its holdings to DigiNole. Some of the recent additions are from the Frederick C. Jackson collection. We welcome guest contributor Emily Woessner, the student who is processing the Jackson collection and completed the description for the digital items.
Frederick C. Jackson was a 21 year old infantry soldier from Connecticut when he was shipped to Anzio with the 180th Infantry Regiment, 45th Infantry Division during World War II. I myself am 21 years old, but instead of fighting in the Battle of Anzio I am processing Jackson's collection here at the archives of the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience at Florida State University. After researching the battle and connecting the dots, I am reminded and beyond grateful for the service and sacrifice of these brave men.
Beginning on January 22, 1944 the Battle of Anzio would be a four month long ordeal between British and American Allies against the Germans in Italy. The main goal of this campaign was to break through the Gustav Line just south of Cassino, Italy. Another potential aim was to take Rome. The Allied campaign was led by British General Holder Alexander, American Lieutenant General Mark Clark with the help of American Major Generals John P. Lucas and Lucian Truscott.
The Battle of Anzio, unfortunately, turned into a poorly executed campaign that saw too few Allied troops assigned to such a major task. The Allies had roughly 75,000 troops compared to the German's 100,000+. After four months of fighting, gridlock, and a command change the Allies were eventually able to capture Rome, but ultimately unable to break the Gustav Line. The Battle of Anzio saw the death of 7,000 and wounding/missing of 36,000 Allied soldiers. The Germans sustained losses of 5,000, wounding/missing of 36,000, and the capture of 4,500 soldiers. Although the campaign was widely criticized afterwards for its poor handling and communication, Churchill defended it saying it accomplished the goal of keep German troops occupied and away from Northwestern Europe where the invasion of Normandy was to take place several months later.
Frederick C. Jackson was not left unscathed by the battle, however he did survive. On March 23, 1944 he was hit by shrapnel causing damage to both of his arms and the loss of his right eye. He was subsequently evacuated and returned to the U.S.
We are fortunate enough today though that the letters between Frederick and his parents along with a few other personal belongings have found their way to our Institute. The new digital collection includes those letters as well as a diary from 1944. We are given a chance to revive this young man's story and reflect on all he and his fellow soldiers did for this country and the world. I recommend anyone taking the time to glimpse into the past so that they may better understand and appreciate the present.
Emily is a third year international affairs major with minors in German, museum studies, and art history. Since August 2016, she has worked as an assistant archivist at the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience at FSU and will continue to do so until she graduates in spring 2018. This summer she looks to expand her archiving experience as she embarks on an internship at the National Museum of American History in Washington D.C.
Degrees of Discovery: The History of Science at Florida State
The Florida State University Heritage Museum exhibit Degrees of Discovery examines the history of science at Florida State, tracking the school's development from early educational institution to twenty-first century research facility. Since the late nineteenth century, science has served as a fundamental aspect of education at Florida State University and its predecessors. After World War II, a surplus of wartime laboratory equipment and veterans allowed FSU to meet the increasing demand for science education across the country. Early programs focusing on physical sciences laid the groundwork for the development of advanced courses in a variety of fields, including meteorology, oceanography, chemistry, and physics. The creation of innovative research facilities offered new avenues for interdisciplinary collaboration and continues to encourage scientists from around the world to take advantage of the advanced technologies offered on and around the Tallahassee campus.
The process of creating this exhibit included extensive research into both the history of the University and scientific trends throughout the past century. Though Heritage Protocol & University Archives contains a wide array of scientific photographs from the 1950s and 60s, locating a variety of primary source material to tell a cohesive narrative was a challenge. In addition, as a literature student, my scientific knowledge was sorely lacking. In order to contextualize FSU's developments, I interviewed faculty and current students involved in the sciences to gain a wider understanding of practice and principle. Research also involved reading transcripts of oral histories, scanning negatives from laboratory photo sessions, tracking the development of honor societies, and comparing a century's worth of course catalogs to determine how science education changed over time.
Another challenge of working with such a broad subject was that relevant items were spread throughout the collections of both HPUA and Special Collections. A newsletter published by the 1973 Speleological Society was tucked away in the Archives, for example, while a postcard donated by two alumni offered an early look at the Science Hall. Perhaps one of the most interesting finds was a set of hand-crafted lab equipment from the 1960s; as part of a chemistry class, students were responsible for creating their own glass stirring rods and tube connectors. During this time period, glassblowers on campus would even create unique, made-to-order equipment for scientists who needed a particular shape or style of instrument.
The practical side of installing the exhibit, however, limited some of our object selections. Because we cannot regulate the natural light from the large, albeit beautiful, stained glass windows in the Heritage Museum, older photographs were digitally reproduced and mounted to avoid damaging the original items. Adhering images to foam board for support and cutting them down to size was more difficult than I anticipated – straight lines and I clearly don't get along – but with the help of the Archives Assistant, the resulting photos offered an impressive visual timeline of the school's scientific evolution. Curating this exhibit was an incredible learning process about creative design, museum principles, and even some scientific facts. Degrees of Discovery offers visitors a glimpse into the ever-changing world of science while reminding us that the basis of discovery – curiosity, inquiry, and creativity – will always be a part of human nature.
Degrees of Discovery: The History of Science at Florida State will be on display in the Heritage Museum in Dodd Hall beginning in mid-April. The museum is open Monday-Thursday, 11AM to 4PM. An online exhibit with additional content will follow.
Ready for its Closeup: The J.R. Clancy Collection
On many personal notes, this collection is cool. One, I was a theater nerd in high school and I'll be honest, I never gave much thought to the stage rigging. This collection is changing things. Two, J.R. Clancy calls my hometown its hometown. So, I've enjoyed getting to work with this collection which is a very good thing because we'll be working with it in the Digital Library Center (DLC) for a long time into the foreseeable future.
The J.R. Clancy stage rigging firm was established by stagehand John Clancy in Syracuse, New York, in 1885. The firm is known for innovating products and techniques for stage design including the Welch tension floor block, the automatic fire curtain, and automated stage rigging. The collection itself includes architectural and engineering drawings related to construction and renovation projects managed by the firm, including theatrical designs, drawings for standard parts, wiring diagrams, and standard assemblies for stage rigging systems. You can see the finding aid for the collection in Archon.
The collection here at Florida State University was acquired through the School of Theatre several years ago with the idea that the collection would be digitized in its entirety in the future. Due to the nature of materials, and the scope of the collection (numbering in the the tens of thousands of drawings!), we've been doing some major planning and thinking through the digitization project. The collection itself is still in processing which adds another challenge on top of the volume of it. So, for the moment, the collection is being digitized by patron request through the Clancy firm. The first batch of materials is now available online through this process. This set of drawings are for rigging components for the Centennial Concert Hall in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada which is getting ready for a renovation project and wanted the original rigging plans for their upcoming work.
As we add more to this collection, we'll be sure to highlight it here on the blog. In the meantime, the collection does have a finding aid and is available upon request in the Special Collections Research Center Reading Room.
Claude Pepper Library Presents Gov. Reubin O'Donovan Askew Papers
The Claude Pepper Library highlights the life and legacy of Reubin O'Donovan Askew.
Reubin Askew was an American politician, who served as the 37th governor of the State of Florida from 1971-1979. During his administration, he became a tenacious advocate of tax reform, consumer protection, financial transparency, education financing, and civil rights. Most importantly, throughout Askew's career he maintained an impeccable reputation for his integrity and loyalty to his family and all Floridians.
Reubin O. Askew, was born on September 11, 1928 in Muskogee, Oklahoma. In 1937, he and his mother moved to Pensacola, where Reubin graduated from Pensacola High School in 1946. Later in 1946, he entered the United States Army as a paratrooper and was discharged as a Sergeant. Askew then attended college at Florida State University where he received a B.S. in Public Administration before joining the United States Air Force in 1951. Askew also served as president of FSU's Government Association and student body president during his years at FSU. In 1951-2 he received his Masters' degree in Public Administration from the University of Denver and Florida State University. In 1956, he received his LLB from the University of Florida. Over the course of his lifetime, Askew was granted 15 Honorary Degrees from multiple institutions.
Askew's public official career began when he served as Assistant County Solicitor for Escambia County from 1956-1958. In 1958, he was elected to the Florida House of Representatives and then to the State Senate in 1962. During his tenure in the State Senate, he served as President Pro Tempore from 1969-1970. Askew was elected Governor in 1970 and again in 1974, making him the first Governor to be elected for a second, consecutive 4-year term.
After retiring as Governor in early 1979, Askew joined the Miami law firm of Greenberg, Traurig, Askew, Hoffman, Lipoff, Rosen and Quentell. In October of 1979, he was appointed by President Jimmy Carter as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary as a United States Trade Representative. In 1984, Askew became the first Floridian to run for President of the United States and in 1987 he announced his candidacy for United States Senate.
Following his political campaign activities, he and his wife, Donna Lou Askew, resided in Tallahassee, Florida, where Askew served as the Professor and Eminent Scholar Chair in Florida Government and Politics.
If you are a student or researcher, who needs primary resources on Reubin O. Askew, please feel free to come by the Claude Pepper Library to view the collection in its entirety. The collection consist of congressional correspondence during the time he served in the House of Representatives, Florida State Senate, and as Governor of Florida. The Pepper Library also has Askew's campaign files, newspaper articles, photographs, audiovisual materials, memorabilia, and copies of speeches. A finding aid for the collection can be viewed online. The collection was donated by Reubin O'Donovan Askew in 2008.
Digital Windover
In 1982, a construction crew started what was supposed to be a routine de-mucking of a small pond in preparation for road construction of Windover Way. It is located in east central Florida, about 16 miles inland from the Atlantic Ocean. However, in the course of the construction work, human remains were discovered. Once it was determined they were not of forensic interest, the construction company contacted Florida State University anthropology faculty to create a research proposal for the landowners.
What followed was three field seasons at Windover from 1984-86 that uncovered the remains of 168 individuals as well as other culturally significant objects from a mortuary pond dated from between 6000-5000 BC. Because of the peat and small pond nature of the site, not only skeletal material but also normally perishable organic artifacts were also discovered. Perhaps most interestingly, enough brain matter was recovered from some skulls to conduct DNA sequencing on the remains.
A partnership with the Department of Anthropology is bringing data from the Windover digs to DigiNole. We have loaded the first batch of materials which includes field notes and excavation forms from the digs. More field notes and forms will follow shortly. We've also working with Digital Support Services at the University of Florida to digitize x-rays of the bones found at Windover. Maps and digitized slides from the seasons will come at a later date as well.
The DLC has been excited to work on this project as it lets us continue to develop models for these sorts of "split" projects where digitization is happening both in the Department of Anthropology and the DLC, allowing each group to work in their area of expertise as well as splitting the work to move forward in a more efficient way.
For more information about the Windover site and the work done there, see Doran, G. H., & Thomas, G. P. (2015). Windover: an overview. Tagungen des landesmuseums fur vorgeschichte halle, 13, 1-19. To see the digital collection, visit DigiNole.

Consulting: Corporate Logotherapy
Meaning Management Training – Makes Me Think
It is not the job that counts but the manner in which one does the work – our attitude towards it and whether it is meaningful and a source of creative value and self-fulfilment.
Aims and Objectives
- Equipping businesses with powerful tools and techniques from the world of practical philosophy,
and the latest research and empirical evidence in psychology
- Employing a multidimensional model of management for maximisation of productivity and profits
- Engaging passion and purpose for performance
- Empowering employers and employees through meaning and values
- Enabling excellence through realising the highest potential of the workforce
- Enhancing morale and motivation
- Engendering inner resilience for real results
- Encouraging innovation and creativity
Three Meaning-at-Work Seminars
1. Seven Principles of Best Business Practice
Our main motivation is meaning. In this seminar the focus is on finding personal meaning at work because a dispirited workforce leads to diminished happiness and decreased productivity. Wellness is our real wealth.
Attitudinal Adjustment: Adopting an affirmative attitude (an outlook of realistic optimism leading to a purposeful plan of action)
Will to Meaning: Committing to meaningful goals and tasks (three main ways)
Meaning of the Moment: Focusing on the importance of the present (not multitasking)
Paradoxical Intention: Avoiding working against yourself by becoming fixated on an intended outcome or desired result – obsessing on the outcome (causing anticipatory anxiety)
Self-Distancing: Looking at yourself from a distance in order to gain proper perspective ('responding' rather than 'reacting')
De-Reflection: Shifting your area of attention in order to alleviate boredom, depression, anxiety, agitation, and stress (from worry to wellness)
Self-Transcendence: Relating to some cause or call greater than yourself (seeing success as service)
These seven principles revolutionise and humanise our working lives by bringing deeper meaning to the world of work itself.
2. Wellness in Work
The greatest asset of any organisation is its personnel. People perform optimally when they fire on all three cylinders: body, mind, and spirit, in life and work. The body works best when it harnesses health (sleep, eating, exercise), the mind when it's achieving positive emotional energy (well-being) and focused mental attention, and the spirit when it seeks a compelling sense of purpose. Wellness is our real wealth
Body: Physical Sustainability (Endurance)
Mind: Psychological Self-Expression (Awareness)
Spirit: Philosophical Significance (Meaning)
When we exist in all three modes we move from surviving to thriving. All three dimensions of the person influence how an individual works and must interact harmoniously and in an integrated way. This promotes innovation and increases productivity and creativity. By meeting our multidimensional needs in the workplace the balance of being can be attained and maintained.
3. The Science of Success
Success depends on values, vision and virtue. Values give rise to goals (aspirations); a vivid vision enables us to envision our goals; and virtue is a value in action. Success is less about power, position and prestige, and more about personal flourishing. Success is about contribution not recognition. One can be very successful in one's professional life and still feel that life is meaningless. This phenomenon can be described as despair despite success. On the other hand, there can be fulfilment despite failure.
The Seven Conditions and Components of Success (leading to entrepreneurial excellence)
- The Hedgehog Concept
- The Principle of Obliquity
- The Profit-Seeking Paradox
- The Four Quadrants
- Success as Service
'Don't aim at success – the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's dedication to a cause greater than oneself '. Frankl
'Man is a goal-seeking animal. His life only has meaning if he is reaching and striving for his goals'. Aristotle
Executive Coaching (one-to-one)
- Acting as a catalyst in implementing permanent, positive, and meaningful change in your work
and life
- Helping you towards actualising personal and professional goals
- Enabling optimal organisational performance
- Utilising the most effective coaching techniques from the world of Franklian psychology and
practical philosophy
- Offering practical ways to enable you to move forward
- Discovering realistic outcomes
- Becoming more aware and developing a plan of action
QUESTION: What can you change and where is your area of freedom?
Our coaching programme draws on the insights of Logotherapy and Stoic philosophy to uncover your unique values, vision, and vocation.
Because it's not just about goal-setting, motivation, or success. But about finding your passion and purpose again, and determining what's holding you back.
It's about finding a fresh approach to problems and recurring patterns of behaviour.
Corporate Counselling
Psychological support, assistance, and training to deal with work-related issues. There is a crying need for counselling in the workplace. Mental health and wellness have a direct impact on productivity.
We need to see work not solely as an occupation but as a creative contribution.
Absenteeism and anxiety, stress, depression, low morale and motivation, fears and fatigue, bullying and boredom, inertia and lack of initiative, mismanagement and meaninglessness, are silent killers that corrode productivity.
'Executive's Disease' stems from a feeling of inner emptiness and existential frustration. The factory manager or financial magnate can become entirely devoted to making money (work mania). With such a person, livelihood overshadows life.
Corporate Counseling advances a multidimensional model, addressing all our aspects: Body, Mind, and Spirit.
Only by deploying these three dimensions can we hope to flourish and prosper.
Workshops & Training Sessions
Individually-tailored to your company's needs which can range from two-hour workshops to two-day trainings covering:
- Job Crafting
- Strategies for Stress
- Answer to Anxiety
- Anger-Management
- Leadership Skills (the diamond model & the four pillars of leadership)
- Resilience Training (turning tragedy into triumph, and obstacles into opportunities)
- Dilemma Training (the seven-step method)
- Creativity and Innovation (the six steps of creative problem-solving – CPS)
- The Art of Discernment: Good Decision-Making
- Meditation for Managers
- Socratic Dialogue
- Conflict Resolution (six-steps)
All the above workshops draw on logotherapy and Stoic philosophy – a unique and powerful blend for success in business.
- Provide you with powerful psychological, evidence-based tools and techniques, skill-sets, and
strategies to deal with corporate challenges (for example the logotherapeutic technique of
paradoxical intention has a 74% success rate.
- Motivate you through meaning for enhanced entrepreneurial excellence (companies who prioritise
meaning in their mission statements show increased profits in their financial statements)
- Inspire you to become more innovative and creative, productive and profitable
- Focus you on setting goals, reaching targets, and concentrating on the tasks at hand
- Help you to improve your mental attitude and mindset to adapt to potentially stressful situations
- Teach you how to self-detach from personal problems and predicaments to better realise your
work potential.
- Enable you to become clearer about what's in your power to choose, change, and control

The Akitsushima-class seaplane tender was a class of two 4,700 ton seaplane tenders that entered service in 1942 and 1943 respectively.
In 1938, the IJN wanted to use their large-sized flying boats more effectively, because the Kawanishi H6K was the only aircraft able to hit Pearl Harbor directly from the Marshall Islands. However, the Marshall Islands did not have flying boat facilities at that time. Early in 1939, the IJN converted the oiler Kamoi to a seaplane tender. However, she was not able to repair seaplanes.
The IJN therefore planned two kinds of seaplane tenders which were included in the Maru 4 Programme. One was a 10,000 tons class flying boat carrier, the other a 2,400 tons class flying boat tender. These plans were not able to pass the assessment by the Ministry of Finance. These two basic plans were revived by the Maru 5 Programme in 1941. However, their construction did not begin. Therefore the IJN planned a 3,500 tons class tender, which was a scaled-up model of the 2,400 tons class. The ships should be able to maintain, repair and supply seaplanes. The IJN intended to accommodate the flying boat by bow-up trim and slope at first, however this plan was cancelled and the Akitsushima-class was equipped with a 35-ton crane. The IJN changed the design frequently, ending up with a displacement increased by 1000 tons.

SYDNEY (Reuters Life!) - The subjects are dark, the black-and-white images stark, but visitors to an exhibit of old forensic photographs in Sydney will also be confronted by beauty, and a historical side of the city rarely seen.
"Archival Exposure: Illuminating a Dark Past," on display at the Justice and Police Museum, comprises 42 images reminiscent of the classic "film noir" movies of Humphrey Bogart.
The pictures, printed from a collection of 130,000 negatives rescued from a flooded warehouse, were taken by forensic police photographers from 1912 to 1964 and used as evidence in court. They were never intended to be seen by the public.
"I think a lot of people are really surprised and intrigued by the beauty of the images," Holly Schulte, the exhibition's assistant curator, told Reuters.
"A lot of the photographers of the time were going to beautiful places like Bondi and photographing the Harbour Bridge construction," she said. "The police photographers didn't have that aesthetic, but they show so much about Sydney's past."
The images provide a rare insight into the job of a forensic photographer, who needs to have stamina as well as a rational gaze and a steady hand.
There are criminals and victims, blood-stained bedrooms, secret hideouts in the city's underbelly as well as main streets in the images that also highlight the artistic touch of many of these photographers, who managed to produce compelling images when confronted by murder and mayhem.
In pictures such as "Fatal Traffic Accident," viewers can see rain-slicked moonlit streets reflected in the car's headlamp. An atmospheric shot of a shadow-filled backyard still sends shivers down the spine of viewers today.
"You get a real sense of what photographers were faced with. Some of the images are so confronting," Schulte says.
"For me, it's the image of the photographer who has been captured in the reflection of a bedroom mirror. You see him at work, camera set up and he appears very calm.
"But when you look across at what he's actually photographing, that bedsheet with the bloodstains and the gore, you can only imagine what happened there," she said.
The exhibition runs until July 26.

From Chris
I LOVE Squeaky Cheeks.
I was given a sample of it to use in my golf shoes when I golf. My shoes are pretty stiff and when I'm playing a long day of golf my feet perspire. I was looking for a product to help with this problem. My friend recommended it to me and I tried it out. it keeps my feet dry and feeling fresh all day. I have started using Squeaky Cheeks every day now. I have replaced my old stick deodorant with this product and I stay fresh all day long. This product is 100% natural which is my favorite part. do me a favor and look at the ingredients in your stick deodorant. the main ingredient is metal or aluminum. its no wonder why so many women in America get breast cancer when they are putting metals into their armpits every morning.
I am now a lifelong believer in this product. I tell everybody that I know about Squeaky Cheeks and everybody that uses it tell me that they LOVE it too.

49ers competition? Miami readies 2016 Super Bowl push
The San Francisco 49ers' new $1.2 billion Santa Clara stadium - slated to open in 2014 - is already in the running to host the 2016 or 2017 Super Bowl.
The Niners plan to make their stadium the National Football League's most technologically advanced, but now Miami is attempting an ambitious stadium renovation to help their franchise compete for the big game.
According to Miami's WSVN 7 News, the CEO of the Miami Dolphins is meeting with potential investors, and a special election this spring could decide whether public funds will be used for a $400 million modernization of the team's Sun Life Stadium.
If financing for the renovation comes through, it could be a game-changer for which city gets Super Bowl L in 2016.
The SportingNews handicapped each city's odds, with the Niners stadium having "not many" cons and a "good" chance at winning the honor. New Orleans, Tampa and Dallas are all also in the running, and for Miami, our sister paper notes, "The NFL has all but ruled out more Super Bowls here until the stadium is renovated."
In past years, the league has decided Super Bowl honors at a meeting in May.

Top Priority for Choosing the Best Trampoline When talking about things that can be utilized by adults as well as kids, then we should not fail to mention the trampoline. This item is basically used for health and fitness goals, sports activities, or even just for plain fun with the family and friends. There several varieties of trampolines out there in the market. Some are used and installed suitably for outside activities, some are inside the house, when others can be installed in both places. In your goal for the finding the best trampolines, safety is always the number one priority. Nonetheless, safety is not only restricted to the quality or toughness of these sorts of products. Aspects such as the size, shape, and the materials that it is built are all components of safety measures. Fundamentally speaking, although it is not always true, quality or durability of things can be equated to safety. In the industry of trampolining, this principle can be utilized too. Hence, if are planning to purchase a trampoline, it is always suggested to obtain from companies and models that are recognized for excellent quality. The reason pertaining to this is naturally simple to understand in that quality products are resilient, cannot be damaged quickly or ripped apart, hence are safer to be utilized. You may obtain idea on this from various reviews of previous customers of the product, may it be from the World Wide Web or just the regular word of mouth. Moreover, quality may also signify having excellent safety functions or addons. Possibly for a risk-free trampoline, a smartly set cushioning is something that is extremely crucial.
What No One Knows About Trampolines
To guarantee safety in the trampolining, it is also significant to know who are likely to utilize it. If you plan only to use it by children, then a mini trampoline should the product that you will obtain. Enormous trampoline may be hazardous for small children. And if you intend to use for training or athletic reasons, then a bigger trampoline would be safer. That would not need too much explanation.
What Almost No One Knows About Trampolines
Similar with choosing the proper size, the shape of trampoline will also be a factor of safety. It is explained in different internet sources that trampolines may have several shapes. Essentially, you can purchase either the round-shaped, square-shaped, and rectangular-shaped. Each shape is intended for a specific type and number of users. Be sure to know which shape can cater your purpose, otherwise; you are going to trim down the safety level. Trampoline is certainly advantageous and enjoyable, but be make sure to always make safety the top priority. Always search for the superior ones and ascertain the correct size as well as shape of the model to be considered as the best trampoline.

Gone in an Instant: More Than 300 Deer Killed in Freak Lightning Storm
More than 300 reindeer were killed by a lightning strike during an epic storm Friday in Norway.
The animals were situated on the central mountain plateau of Hardangervidda when the lightning struck, leaving the bodies of 323 deer, including 70 calves, scattered along the region.
Norwegian Environment Agency spokesman Kjartan Knutsen told the Associated Press it is not uncommon for animals to be struck and killed by lightning strikes. However, so many perishing at once is unheard of.
"We have not heard about such numbers before," he said.
Knutsen added: "I don't know if there were several lighting strikes. But it happened in one moment."
Knutsen noted that that during bad weather, reindeer stay very close together, which could be one plausible explanation for so many killed at once.
The agency is determining to figure out what to do with the massive amount of carcasses. In many instances, they let them naturally decompose in the area in which they perished.

I wrote these goals in a book and then did nothing with them. After a few weeks of failed effort, I set weekly goals, written in a book that I carried with me. I could pull it out each day and check my progress. This worked for a few months but then a small book in a purse could be easily ignored.
Now each Sunday I write my goals for the week in black magic marker on a piece of paper that gets taped to my bathroom mirror. I am forced to face my successes or failures on a daily basis.
Some of my goals are part of larger goals and some are quick and easy things that I usually procrastinate (like call the dentist to make an appointment). Each week I get the joy of crossing things off my list and feeling accomplished. Some weeks the list is long, some the list is simply "Survive" (that was last's week).
Below is a list of big things I accomplished last year.
- Have my first book be accepted for publication.
- Compete in my first olympic triathlon without dying.
- Become a ski instructor.
- Ski black diamond powder.
- Start a freelance business.
- Slalom water ski.

Pakistan's prime minister appealed for support Friday from parliament in a standoff between his beleaguered government and the military, saying lawmakers had to choose between "democracy and dictatorship."
Tensions between the armed forces and the civilian leadership have escalated in recent months, raising fears of a coup attempt or that the army might support possible moves by a partisan Supreme Court to oust the elected government.
The military and the government have been locked in a standoff for months, but a scandal that erupted last year after an unsigned memo was sent to Washington asking for its help in heading off a supposed coup has caused friction to spike this week.
Opposition parties have spoken out against any military takeover, but they are seeking to exploit the crisis to push for early polls. General elections are not scheduled until early 2013, but many people expect they will take place sooner.
On Monday, the parliament is set to vote on a "show of confidence" in Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani.
The resolution prepared by the government and its coalition partners pledges "full confidence and trust" in the political leadership and says all state institutions must act within limits imposed by the constitution _ an apparent rebuke to the military for crossing into politics. Given the ruling party's majority in the house, it should pass and give something of a boost to the government.
Gilani said the parliament must choose Monday between "democracy or dictatorship."
The government is determined not to step down before Senate polls scheduled for March. That vote is carried out by lawmakers and is expected to give President Asif Ali Zardari's and Gilani's Pakistan People's Party a majority in the upper house, handing it significant political power for the next six years.
The army has staged at least three coups in Pakistan's six-decade history. It still considers itself the true custodian of the country's interests. On Wednesday, it warned of "grievous consequences" for the country in an unusual statement, setting off the latest round of coup fears.
Earlier Friday, two officials _ one in Britain, the other in Pakistan _ said Gilani had called the top British diplomat in the country this week expressing fears that the Pakistani army might be about to stage a coup. However, the British Foreign Office and Gilani's office denied any such phone call had been made.
The prime minister also asked High Commissioner Adam Thomson for Britain to support his embattled government, according to the officials, who didn't give their names because of the sensitivity of the issue.
The British Foreign Office said in a statement Friday there was "no phone call on this matter." The prime minister's office also said Gilani had "not spoken to the British High Commissioner in this regard."
The Pakistani government is unlikely to want to publicly admit to asking Britain for help because it would be taken as a sign that it is worried about its position.
Analysts say army chief Gen. Ashfaq Pervez Kayani has little appetite for a coup, but they say the generals may be happy to allow the Supreme Court to dismiss the government by "constitutional means." The court has legitimized early coups. The Zardari government resisted reinstating Chief Justice Mohammad Iftikhar Chaudhry when it came to power in 2008 because it feared he would topple them.
"The military and the judiciary seem to be one side while the civilian government is on the other," said The Daily Times in an editorial. "The suspicion in the minds of some observers is that an indirect coup might be in the offing against a democratically elected government."
A Supreme Court commission is probing the memo affair, which in theory could lead to Zardari's ouster.
The court has also ordered the government to open corruption investigations into Zardari dating back years. The government has refused. Earlier this week, the court said it could dismiss Zardari and Gilani over the case. Judges are convening Monday for what could be a decisive session.
Zardari traveled last month to Dubai for medical reasons, triggering widely reported rumors he was on the verge of resigning. On Thursday, he traveled to the same city, citing "personal reasons," returning early Friday, said spokesman Farhatullah Babar.
Asked whether Zardari was concerned about his political future, Babar said, "Absolutely not. Why should he be? He is comfortable and perfectly all right."
The nuclear-armed country is facing a host of problems, among them near economic collapse and a virulent al-Qaida- and Taliban-led insurgency. The fight has been complicated by allegations that the country's main Inter-Services Intelligence is supporting some of the insurgents.
On Friday, a government-appointed commission investigating the unsolved murder of a journalist last year said that the ISI needed to be more "law-abiding." The report did not find enough evidence to name any perpetrators in the death of Saleem Shahzad, who was killed after he told friends he had been threatened by the ISI.
The commission called on the ISI to be made more accountable to the government through internal reviews and oversight by parliament. It said its interactions with reporters should be closely monitored.
Also Friday, militants assaulted a police station in the northwestern city of Peshawar, killing three officers and wounding nine others, said police officer Saeed Khan.
The Pakistani Taliban have carried out hundreds of attacks on the army and other security forces since 2007. The attack came a day after militants with guns and grenades killed four soldiers in an ambush in the South Waziristan tribal area.
