The Soul's Code: In Search of Character and Callingby James Hillman
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Plato and the Greeks called it "daimon," the Romans "genius," the Christians "guardian angel"; today we use terms such as "heart," "spirit," and "soul." For James Hillman it is the central and guiding force of his utterly unique and compelling "acorn theory," which proposes that each life is formed by a particular image, an image that is the essence of that life and calls it to a destiny, just as the mighty oak's destiny is written in the tiny acorn. It is a theory that offers a liberating vision of childhood troubles and an exciting approach to themes such as fate and fatalism, character and desire, family influence and freedom, and, most of all, calling - that invisible mystery at the center of every life that speaks to the fundamental question "What is it, in my heart, that I must do, be, and have? And why?" The Soul's Code dedicates itself to what is truly innate, not to how it got this way or where it's going. Hillman does not see human beings as results or, worse, victims of their lives, nor does the promise or even seek a "cure"; instead he welcomes the necessity of every aspect of what makes up a life and advocates using "symptoms" as clues to what the daimon demands. Essentially, Hillman believes that there is more to life - to each individual - than can be explained by the traditional "either/or" categories of genetics and environment. His method is to use the extraordinary (an extensive array of examples from Yehudi Menuhin to Jeffrey Dahmer) as a way to inspire the ordinary, as well as urging his readers to reexamine their childhood impulses, fantasies, thoughts, and even accidents, all of which reflect the "blueprints" that give direction to the course of a biography.
Some call it" genius". Others have named it "spirit", "daimon", and even "guardian angel". But while philosophers and psychologists from Plato to Jung emphasized the fundamental essence of our individuality, our modern culture refuses to accept that a unique, formed soul is within us from birth, shaping as much as it is shaped.
Now in this extraordinary bestseller, James Hillman presents a brilliant new vision of our selves not defined by family relationships or the mentality of victimization. Drawing on the biographies of such disparate people as Ella Fitzgerald and Mohandas K. Gandhi, James Hillman argues that character is fate and shows how the soul, if given the opportunity, can assert itself even at an early age. The result is a reasoned and powerful road map to understanding our true nature and discovering an eye-opening array of choices — from the way we raise our children to our career paths to our social and personal commitments to achieving excellence in our time.

EmEditor Professional (32 bit) User Reviews
out of 31 user reviews
"Great Editor"
Version: EmEditor Professional (32 bit) 5
Compared to TextPad, UltraEdit, and even some open source editors like ScITE, I found EmEditor to beat them all (IMHO). EmEditor contains many features, easily customizable, a very easy UI, and a free academic licence too! What more could I ask for?
"Like they said, best text editor ever!"
Version: EmEditor Professional (32 bit) 5
I love the beautiful interface, the speed, and the plug-in support. I also appreciate having a separate HTML source viewer, and the tray icon is very useful.
"best text editor yet"
Version: EmEditor Professional (32 bit) 4.13
(1) Loads quickly even on slow PIII machines
(2) Can open multiple documents with it's own tabbing system (like firefox)
(3) Search and replace within files spanning unlimited subdirectories
(4) can configure layout based on file type
(5) syntax highlighting
(6) Regular Expressions option for search and replace
(7) SIMPLE user macro record/execute
(8) more complicate macros for geeky users based on javascript
(9) contains no bundled malware
(1) isn't free
(2) phones home during trial period
(3) no new plugins have been released in three years
(4) website contains some EngRish
(5) no repository of scripts for users on their site. This would be give it that added value it's currently lacking
(6) the average user (not me) apparently can never figure out how to escape tabbed document mode. (Combine all)
"Great tool!"
Version: EmEditor Professional (32 bit) 4.13
One of the most interesting product to edit text files (e.g. for PHP, ASP, Java...). It has a lot of interesting features: recognizes a lot of file types, highlighting syntactic words of language in use, and it is completely customizable; there is a kind of "window split" and "window join", and a tabbed management of open files; it is possible to find files in a directory tree containing certain words; supports Kanji and Unicode fonts/characters, automatically recognizes return-type in files (^M, ^J^M, ^J, etc), adapting the remaining edit. It is possible to download and use plugins, and it is possible to write macros.
It is not a full programming environment :-)
"Best text editor ever!"
Version: EmEditor Professional (32 bit) 4.13
Clear, intuitive interface. Syntax highlighting. Tabbed editing of documents. Supports lot of formats. Lightweight, takes less resources than Notepad when idle. Get EmEditor now! I bought it.
None at all. It's gorgeous!

Millennium Scenes was written in 1998-99: rather than an empty celebration of the turn of a century, the composer writes that 'I had in mind a series of fleeting images... - a TV commercial, perhaps, a couple arguing, laughter, a dead animal on the road, religious fervour, a child being hit - almost anything, in fact, but all of them real events taking pace around the turn of the millennium.'
By contrast with the massive orchestra of Millennium Scenes, Notturno explores the night landscapes evoked by poet Salvatore Quasimodo, while As Kingfishers Catch Fire exploits the colours of flute, clarinet, harp and string quartet. Chamber Symphony, which closes the disc, juxtaposes ideas of the mechanical and natural, partly inspired by the composer's fascination with the writings of William Blake.

Schoolgirls help launch HPV vaccine campaign
Over 150 Bradford schoolgirls helped launch a local campaign last week to persuade teenagers to complete the three jab HPV course.
HPV lead for NHS Bradford and Airedale Linda Scott said: "We decided to seek help from these schools, not only to boost the number of girls having the vaccination, but also because we felt these girls would be more effective at reassuring their peers that the jab was ok and they should get themselves protected against cervical cancer."
Readers' comments (1)
This is great! My daughter became involved in a facebook discussion when some of her friends said they wouldn't have the jab because they didn't like needles! All the girls made valid points but those in favour of vaccination won through. It proved to me how strong peer pressure is - and how sensible teenagers can be!

Highways among local aspirants' pledges-A A +A
Monday, May 6, 2013
NEW roads that will connect Cebu's eastern and western seaboards, or go from north to south, are among the promises some local candidates have made in the run-up to May 13.
"There are a lot potential roads that need to be improved that would connect, for instance, Asturias to Danao City. The effect of that road if we build that would be tremendous because it would open up commerce and trade from the mid-western part of Cebu to the eastern part of Cebu. You can just imagine the opportunities that would be opened up," said Rep. Pablo John Garcia (Cebu Province, third district).
Garcia, who is running for governor under One Cebu, recently attended a "Tell it to Sun.Star" session. He said another road that could be developed is one from Tuburan to Catmon town.
He said he is not closing the door to a trans-axial highway, like the one proposed by the late Vice Gov. Greg Sanchez, but that the study for it needs to be reviewed.
He said such a project would be so costly that a public-private partnership might be a more feasible way to pursue it.
In 2007, P10 million was set aside by the Cebu Provincial Government for the preparatory work on the trans-axial highway project and its components.
It was supposed to be a four-lane highway from Daanbantayan in the north to Santander town in the south. It was also supposed to have provisions for water supply and power.
Earlier, Liberal Party gubernatorial candidate Hilario Davide III said he would revive the trans-axial highway project if he gets elected as governor. This is his second attempt, after losing to Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia in 2010.
Gigi Sanchez-Zaballero, the vice governor's daughter, recently said she will pursue the trans-axial project if she is elected to the Provincial Board.
Speaking in last week's 888 News Forum at Marco Polo Plaza, Zaballero blamed "political harassment" for the project's failure to take off.
The vice governor died on April 29, 2011.
"That is (trans-axial highway) a very good project that was never realized because of political maneuvering," Zaballero said.
Zaballero is the LP's lone candidate for the Provincial Board (PB) seats representing the third district. She is running against reelectionist PB Members Alex Binghay and his son-in-law, Ian Zambo.

Transforming the Holiday Spirit: Mason Pitches in for First #GivingTuesday
Posted: October 19, 2012 at 1:15 pm
Black Friday and Cyber Monday have become synonymous with the holiday "buying" season. But this year, Mason is helping to launch a national effort focusing on the holiday "giving" season by participating in #GivingTuesday on Nov. 27.
#GivingTuesday has put social media at the heart of its approach to building support and raising awareness about the power of giving. This first-of-its-kind effort harnesses the collective power of a blend of partners — charities, families, businesses and individuals — to transform how people think about, talk about and participate in the giving season.
#GivingTuesday aims to inspire people to take collaborative action to improve their local communities, give more, give better and give in smarter ways to the charities and causes they care about.
This year, Mason is focusing its #GivingTuesday efforts on increasing philanthropy and volunteer recruitment for the Early Identification Program (EIP). In collaboration with seven local public school systems, Mason's EIP provides access to educational resources for middle and high school students who will be the first in their families to attend a college or university. Currently, 600 students are pursuing higher education as a result of the EIP and its partners.
"We're excited about the possibilities that focusing on EIP might provide," says Marc Broderick, vice president for development and alumni affairs. "By participating with so many partners nationally and globally, Mason has the opportunity to raise both funds and awareness for this innovative and successful program, opening up new opportunities for students in the local area to access higher education."
To learn more about #GivingTuesday and how you can support EIP, visit the website.

Hello, I'm Wayne Allyn Root for Personal Liberty. I don't mean to say, "I told you so." But I told you so.
I've predicted disaster for the U.S. economy since the day of Barack Obama's election in 2008. I've got it all memorialized, in writing, in two books and hundreds of commentaries. In Time magazine I called Obama "the greatest jobs killer in world history." In my latest national bestseller, The Ultimate Obama Survival Guide, I've listed hundreds of statistics proving that the U.S. economy is headed for a total collapse. But that was all written months ago. The worst was yet to come.
The results are in. The picture is grim. Here are some frightening economic numbers to think about the next time the lying, manipulating mainstream media tells you that we are in "recovery."
First, almost 50 percent of Americans have less than $500 in savings. Not surprisingly, one out of three residents of Obama's home State of Illinois live in poverty. A mind-numbing four of five Americans either are experiencing poverty, foreclosure or welfare, or they will in their lifetime. Four out of five. Say goodbye to the myth of the American dream. It's only a nightmare now.
Ditto for the American middle class. Obama has massacred it. Our middle class now ranks 27th in the world. I've argued from day one that Obama's goal was to create a two-class society. The two classes are the super rich (who are beholden to Obama for corporate welfare and government contracts) and the poor (who are beholden to Obama for checks to survive). Look no further than the new immigration bill to see the final destruction of middle-class wages.
More grim news: Auto sales are collapsing. Construction jobs are falling off a cliff. And U.S. factory orders just suffered the biggest drop in a year.
What about jobs? Isn't that picture getting rosier by the minute? Well, actually, no. Let's analyze the real numbers. Since the start of 2013, we've gained 953,000 jobs; but, amazingly, 731,000 of them are crummy, low-wage, part-time jobs. That's means almost 80 percent of the jobs created in America are part-time jobs that won't pay the bills of a typical middle-class lifestyle.
The best jobs are manufacturing jobs. Well, under Obama they are losing out by 10-to-1 versus crummy, low-paying jobs. Facts don't lie: So far this year more than 246,000 low-paying waiter or bartender jobs have been added to the U.S. economy, versus only 24,000 high-paying manufacturing jobs.
How bad is it? Well here's a Hall of Fame triple play:
The Obama Administration just hired a company to promote Obamacare over the phone to Americans. Guess what? Even those jobs are part-time, with no health insurance.
The head of the Internal Revenue Service just testified in front of Congress that he'd rather keep his own health insurance than switch to Obamacare. The IRS is in charge of Obamacare, and they don't want any part of it.
And the second-biggest employer in America is now a temp agency. Good luck getting a quality job in this Obama economy.
Still not convinced? Food stamp rolls are growing 75 times as fast as employment. The national debt has increased by 50 percent under Obama, even though he promised to reduce it. Obama promised to reduce health insurance bills for an average American family by $2,500 per year. Instead, your health bills went up by $3,000 per year. The men's labor participation is the lowest rate ever measured since they started tracking it in 1948. And here's the clincher: 90 million able-bodied, working-age Americans are not working.
All of this misery morphs together in one tragic new statistic of the Obama economy: There are more Americans getting "food assistance" checks (101 million) than working in the private sector (97 million). We are certainly witnessing the complete destruction of the middle class. It's been a purposeful plan by Obama from the first day — just as I predicted from the first day.
And if you think help is on the way, I've got a bridge to sell you… in Detroit. The biggest city to ever go bankrupt, Detroit, has been run by Democrats since 1962. That's more than half a century of 100 percent Democrat rule, using the exact same policies as Obama. The city is now in ruins. Detroit leads the Nation in illiteracy, welfare, food stamps, violent crime, murder, abandoned properties and broken street lights.
The city of Detroit's downfall is built around four core ideas: never-ending entitlement spending, the most government employees per capita of any city in America, monstrous debt and the highest property taxes in America. It's no surprise then that Detroit is hopelessly bankrupt. But wait, isn't that Obama's exact prescription for prosperity for the Nation? High taxes, more spending, more debt and more government employees. Bingo. Help isn't coming, folks. The cavalry isn't riding in to save you. They are coming to kill us.
Detroit is certainly the future of America under Obama. It's the exact same policies. We are experiencing Groundhog Day: doing the same stupid things and expecting a different result.
One last morsel of food for thought: The EU is in the middle of a Great Depression. Countries like Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Greece and Cyprus face total disaster. Their economies are ruined for generations to come. Yet America under Obama now has more debt than every country in the European Union, combined. Our country has more government debt than any country in the history of the world.
Say goodbye to the U.S. economy. It's been nice while it lasted. But remember: I told you so. I'm Wayne Allyn Root for Personal Liberty. See you next week. Same time, same place. God bless America.

Finally, you moved away from home and are living on campus—now it's time to celebrate! Partying and hanging out are natural things to want to do once you've tasted a little bit of freedom during that first semester, but it's important to keep track of why you're there—to graduate. Sadly, many students face the reality of not graduating on time as a result of getting off track. Keep your goal of graduating a reality by implementing these tactics into the next four years of your college experience.
Choose Your Friends Wisely—the first mistake most students make is hanging out with the wrong crowd. If you realize your friends like to hang out more than study, it may be time to start distancing yourself from that crowd and finding friends who have a better handle of balancing fun with studies. The constant Friday night parties could soon turn into nightly events and might deter you from your schoolwork. If you don't nip it in the bud now, you'll be scrambling to pull up your grades before you know it.
Invest in a Planner—keeping track of what's due and when it's due will help you plan your social activities a little better. Not everyone likes to use a calendar or planner and if that's the case for you, that's fine. Just find out what does work for your organization style and use it. Jotting down deadlines or using a smart phone will help you turn in that paper on time. Understanding how to prioritize will be a great skill set to implement early. All internships and employment opportunities will require some sort of organizational skills.
Understand Your Academic Catalogue—schools change catalogues almost yearly, however you have the choice to stick with the catalogue you received upon your freshman year. Your catalogue will be a guide as to what courses are required in your selected major. Think twice about taking that pottery class if it doesn't fit within the timeline to graduate. Taking courses that deviate from the suggested course load my harm you. Stay aware of any changes that may impact your major's track and how they may affect your path to graduation.
Stay in Touch With the Registrar—they will know exactly where you stand in terms of graduating on time. It's important to check in at least once a semester to reconcile the academic hours you have recorded and the hours they have. If there does happen to be some discrepancies, it's better to catch them a year before graduation than a few months before.
Staying focused and understanding the real reason why you're in school will help curb most activities that could prevent you from graduating on time. If you have problems finding a balance or if your coursework is too much, talk with your advisor and let them know about any issues you may have. It's better to acknowledge a problem early on than let it become too unraveled and difficult to repair.

Who's to say fashion designers don't enjoy a little role playing every once in a while? For the March issue of Harper's Bazaar, Kim Kardashian wasn't the only one who dressed up like her favorite movie character. The mag also cast some fashion heavyweights in recreations of director Mike Nichols's most famous flicks.
The Mark Seliger-shot spread pays homage to Nichols (who, by the way, is married to quite a fashionable lady) by having Prabal Gurung's Benjamin cozy up to Diane von Furstenberg's Mrs. Robinson à la The Graduate, and Winona Ryder and Marc Jacobs have at it as Martha and George from Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig of Marchesa also make an appearance as Working Girl's Katharine and Tess.)
The designers were certainly game for the playful shoot. "I got to see Diane undressing. What more could I ask for?" Gurung quipped, while von Furstenberg explained: "I love Prabal. It was so easy to seduce him. He's adorable." Jacobs has an even stronger (or shall we say indelible?) tie to the film he helped portray: "I've seen the movie about 100 times. I have George and Martha tattooed on my arm." Talk about method posing!
So, who is more believable — Prabal and Diane, or Winona and Marc? (Also, check out the behind-the-scenes video below!)

Why do you think nuclear energy is important? Nuclear energy is critical because we can't be dependent on one source of energy. We need to create opportunities for a better life for our children and must leave a legacy in this planet that we care for them and for our beautiful planet Earth.
Nuclear power is an established technology that can provide large amounts of cheap, stable, carbon-free electricity..

How ironic is it that as of 2005, the country with the highest rise in Satanic conversions and occult practices would be Italy – home of The Vatican? There, in the very epicenter of Catholicism, Italian teenagers started following Satanic and occult religions. Take the example of the Milan-based band The Beasts of Satan, who murdered three people and inspired The Vatican to start some month and two-month programs teaching priests about exorcism and possession.
That quite reminds us of the new film The Rite, starring Anthony Hopkins. In the film, priests take classes in exorcism and have to perform the complicated rituals in some harrowing and chilling situations. We're looking forward to it.

This hotel was recommended to us by regular visitors. You can't go wrong with a recommendation can you??
We were on a 2 day DBB deal and with the Spa across the road we were looking forward to a relaxing weekend.
We had afternoon tea in the conservatory as there was a function on in the bar area.
The afternoon tea was more than acceptable, however the decor and fabrics were lacking the finer touches of TLC and a duster. A lot of broken blinds and cobwebs.
Never mind, we bought a drink and went back to our room. there was a knock at the door and here was the hotel manager with a tradesman wanting to measure up the furniture for glass tops. Would we mind?? Well what can you say. There was another knock at the door 5 mins later with complimentary drinks and snacks for our inconvenience... fair enough all's good and nice touch.
When we arrived for dinner we were asked what room we were in, which we told them. We were met by a vague confused look and asked if we were both dining? Strange question as we were both there....no matter.
We sat down and proceeded to read the menu. We were paid a visit by the restaurant manageress at our table who said that there was a problem with our booking.
She said that we had only booked for 1 night for 1 person in 2 rooms....this was supposed to be 1 room for 1 couple for 2 nights.
After some serious embarrassment and affront on our behalf we had to leave the table in order to go to our room to get our tablet so we could display our email correspondence and confirmation to show that we had booked correctly and paid up front...which we were able to prove that we had. It was the hotel who had messed up our booking.
We were assured that the DBB deal would be honored without any issue for both nights..and given a voucher for a drink for the following evenings meal.
Now very much on edge and uncomfortable we ordered our food.
The Shin of beef was out of this world. Absolutely amazing. My wife had it the following night and was again blown away by it.
Breakfasts were exceptionally good as well.
We were all packed up on the Sunday morning having a coffee in our room before going to check out only to have the housemaid knock and come straight in without waiting for a response. This could have been extremely embarrassing.
When checkout came we had been charged for the drinks we got the coupon for....really.
In summary. Fabulous food, dusty decoration in need of some TLC, Botched booking. less
Very friendly hotel, good food, comfortable rooms.

I stayed here with a group of ladies for a weekend away. Food was great, rooms very clean and comfortable, staff very friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Beautiful, well kept grounds with a golf course and children's play park included. I didn't visit the spa or pool, but some of the ladies enjoyed these facilities, some used the beauty therapy rooms too. Only two small points. My friend with whom I shared a room has MS. She does not need a wheelchair, but uses a tri-wheeler to walk, and her walking is very slow. We had a lovely comfortable room with what looked to be a brand new wet room. It was very spacious with all the hand rails needed, a shower behind a full length glass screen. However the wash basin was a miniscule, cloakroom sized one which made even teeth cleaning difficult as the mixer tap jutted out over it. But worse was the distance from the main reception----down two long corridors, which took my friend a long time to negotiate. From the size of the bathroom door opening, it's obvious the room has been adapted for wheelchair users, but not all disabled people use wheelchairs, and it surely would have made sense for this room to have been much nearer the reception area and main door. The corridors included two doors which needed to be pulled towards you, which would be difficult for a wheelchair user on their own. As I say, the room itself is well appointed for a disabled user, the only thing that lets it down is the distance from the main door and reception. less
Highly recommend...

I've just spent a weekend at this hotel as part of a group of around 40 people. From the moment we arrived on Friday evening, until we left this afternoon, the staff could not have been more helpful towards us.
This was more than just good service, this was genuinely friendly. Every member of staff acknowledged our presence in corridors, or just passing. It was lovely to be taken care of so well.

I stayed Sept/Oct for 5 nights as a place to come away to work, to have a bit of time to myself, and to enjoy the location. A problem on arrival with my room was dealt with immediately and I found it a really lovely, tranquil place. (If you can avoid weekend weddings).
The staff were very helpful and friendly - particular thanks the to guy in the leisure centre who recommended a route for running locally. I got round there a few times and it was great.
There was an issue with the food a few times - I ordered the same item on room service twice and each time it arrived very differently. And the restaurant could be better. When an issue was raised with them, I was impressed that staff listened to these issues and said they would address them. I do hope they will (And I might well come back and see if they have!).
Overall I think this place has lots of really good things going for it, they just need to sort out a few of the issues that are pointed out here by other reviewers, and bring consistency. less

When learning how to drive is knowing the car itself. The interior and the exterior of a simple car. Furthermore, having an expensive car like Ferrari. If the car is is in manual stick-shift, one must know the first gear, second gear, third gear and the fourth gear. Sometimes, knowing if there is another faster gear.Then, the experience of the amazing death race of one's life in driving. From learning how to drive and practicing it almost every day, an individual is ready for a test drive and into the journey of a long road trip both being offensive and defensive driver. The road of dreams to the unknown will be an adventure.
The story above is a related to many stories to us such topics like studying our academic excellence to pursue the dream career, reaching to the corporate ladder to the road of fame and being famous, or until the end of the road which is in reality is just waiting there silently like a thief.
We take our life as baby steps at a time. Finishing one's track in education, having a prestigious career and the world is in your hands. However, you will see that this is not a good life. There is a the not so good at all. Seeing the deception and not knowing anymore what is right and wrong especially in business. The idealism of everything is fine is just an illusion. The fact of reality is that in dealing the only path where everything is for the business without principles.
Some people changed their career but it is not an easy to the transition and to the fear of the unknown is unpredictable. From a well paying job of fame and fortune, to the adjustment of a simple things of having that kind of a career path. Often times, asking the right questions to the elders for their wisdom will provide us the view of living it right, simple and meaningful.
As man's nature is in the destructive side. Still, we have hope for a good challenge of adventure. Require to have all senses in the picture, a dash of emotions and more on the alertness of intellect in analyzing the environment before having that decision. Wishing for a better life and living it to the fullest.
There is hope for us all. Feelings does not help at all. A need to think is better than reacting to the situation at hand. Therefore, we could take that road trip with a conscience of a simple but more improve life with a purpose. There is a plan for all of us. Have faith and believe that we can make a difference. We only live this life only once, just like a cycle of a butterfly, the journey of flight in life.

The Well and the Mine: A Novelby Gin Phillips
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In 1931 Carbon Hill, Alabama, a small coal-mining town, nine-year-old Tess Moore watches a woman shove the cover off the family well and toss in a baby without a word. For the Moore family, centered on helping anyone in need during the Great Depression, the apparent murder forces them to face the darker side of their community and understand the motivations of their family and their friends. Most townspeople have no money for a newspaper and backbreaking work keeps them busy from dawn until well after dusk. For parents, it is a time when a better life for your children — one that involves clean fingernails and a desk — likely means sacrificing health, time, and every penny that can be saved. For a miner, the thought that you might not make it home from work is as much a part of the morning as a cup of coffee. But next to those daily thoughts of death and hard work are the lingering pleasures of sweet tea, feather beds, and lightning bugs yet to be caught.
"A tight-knit miner's family struggles against poverty and racism in Phillips's evocative first novel, set in Depression-era Alabama. Throughout, she moves skillfully between the points of view of miner father Albert, hard-working mother Leta, young daughter Tess and teenage daughter Virgie, and small son Jack. They see men who are frequently incapacitated or killed by accidents in the local mines; neighbors live off what they can grow on their patch of land; and blacks like Albert's fellow miner and friend Jonah are segregated in another part of Carbon Hill — and often hauled off to jail arbitrarily. When Tess witnesses a woman throwing a baby into their well, no one believes her until the dead child is found, and few are shocked. Tess, hounded by nightmares, and Virgie, on the cusp of womanhood and resistant to the thought of an early marriage to the local boys who court her, begin making inquiries of their own, visiting wives who've recently had babies and learning way more than they imagined. With a wisp of suspense, Phillips fully enters the lives of her honorable characters and brings them vibrantly to the page." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"When you close the book, you'll miss these characters. But The Well and the Mine doesn't just give you characters who'll stay with you — it gives you a whole world." Fannie Flagg, author of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe and Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man
"If you've been waiting for a new voice to rise from the South, here it is. Gin Phillips is the real thing. Her novel, The Well and the Mine, is a stunning triumph: haunting, lyrical, a portrait of the southern family, a story of the human predicament." Vicki Covington, author of Gathering Home and The Last Hotel for Women
"The Well and the Mine weaves the multiple voices of a Depression-era family into a tale that's both tragic and affirming. Gin Phillips evokes the coal-mining country of rural Alabama — its poverty, racial tensions, and labor loyalties — with startling vividness. Like a Gee's Bend quilter, Phillips stitches tradition, color, and necessity into every sentence of this superb first novel." Peter Donahue, author of Madison House,winner of the Langum Prize for Historical Fiction

POLL: More than 1,000 BP claims for losses made in Collier and Lee counties
BONITA SPRINGS - Make a claim, get a number.
That was the takeaway from a workshop about the BP claims process held Tuesday at the Bonita Springs Area Chamber of Commerce headquarters off U.S. 41 North.
Anyone who thinks they might have a claim - even if they haven't lost money or suffered damages yet - should go ahead and file one, said Jeffrey Thompson, an Orlando attorney with Alvarez Sambol Winthrop.
"Get a claim number," he said. "Get in the system."
About a dozen business owners and workers attended the workshop. Some have already been hurt by the massive BP oil spill, while others feared they might be in the months and years to come in the wake of what some have dubbed the nation's worst natural disaster.
"It's a changing dynamic as you see from the news every single day," Thompson said. "Now we have a new cap, but there's still seepage."
Even the claims process itself continues to evolve more than 90 days after the Deepwater Horizon rig exploded near Louisiana, killing 11 people and causing the spill that continues to make headlines, he said.
He shared some sobering statistics: More than 2.3 million barrels of oil have poured out of the leaking well into the Gulf of Mexico and more than 587 miles of coastline have been tainted, with most of those miles in Louisiana.
BP has set aside $20 billion for claims. So far, it has paid out about $207 million on more than 156,000 claims, with most of that money going toward lost income and profits, and property damage, Thompson said.
Both businesses and individuals can make claims.
In Collier, there have been about 470 claims filed and so far $342,020 has been paid out.
In Lee, there have been about 680 claims, with a payout of $91,865.
In Charlotte, there have been about 140 claims and $21,852 has been paid out thus far.
In Sarasota, there have been 290 claims with a payout of $28,144.
Thompson used his county as a comparison. In Orange County, where his law firm is based, there have been about 150 claims, with checks written for $246,434.
"We have no shoreline," he said.
There is a local BP claims office at 4121 U.S. 41 East in East Naples, near Sugden Regional Park. But that's not the only place to file a claim.
Claims can be made by calling 1-800-440-0858 or visit www.bp.com/claims.
While BP is paying claims now the future is uncertain, with the chance that the companies involved in the spill could end up in bankruptcy, Thompson said.
"Now the $20 billion that has been set aside, I don't think that is going to be enough," he said.
He warned the group to be sure that before accepting any money from BP that they aren't signing away their right for future damage claims.
Sometimes just signing a check could waive your legal rights, Thompson said.
Michael Briers, an accountant based in Bonita Springs, said businesses and individuals have received more than $100 million in payments in Louisiana on more than 49,000 claims.
After Louisiana, Alabama has the second highest payout of nearly $40.5 million on more than 33,000 claims. Next is Florida with payments of $37.1 million on about 36,000 claims.
"There is a lot of work going into a claim," Briers said.
There is a lot of documentation involved, including tax records, wage loss statements and deposit slips. Fishermen must provide copies of their current fishing license.
Some individuals have made claims for nausea, anxiety, stress and headache. But BP has been slow to pay on those kinds of claims. There have been 362 claims for nausea, for example, and BP has paid out $3,050.
"Bodily injury," Briers said. "Personally, I don't think BP is going to pay many of them."
If claims are denied by BP, other assistance is available. One option is to file a claim with the National Pollution Funds Center at www.uscg.mil/npfc/claims/default.asp.
Interest-free loans are also available through the Small Business Administration.
Two in the group attending the workshop said they had already filed claims with BP.
About a month ago, Nicole and Robert Reed filed their claim. He is a charter captain in Bokeelia on Pine Island in Lee County and has seen his business drop off dramatically since June.
"He is down 50 percent," said Nicole Reed, who attended the workshop for her husband. "I just did all the numbers yesterday."
He was seeing a steady increase in his business before June. He operates Tarpon Magic Charters and has been a charter captain in Bokeelia since 2001.
"He's had people call and say, 'Is the fishing OK?' People are concerned there's oily fish and there's not," Nicole Reed said.
She is gathering all the documents now that are needed to show BP their losses.
Cindy Andrew said she and her husband, Ralph, a commercial fisherman on Fort Myers Beach for more than 15 years, have filed a claim, though they haven't seen much damage yet.
"I've been telling my husband, 'Let's just do it. Let's just do it," she said.
His fishing waters are still open, but they are concerned they may be closed off if oil gets any closer to Southwest Florida.
He primarily catches grouper and sells it to the Fishmonger Restaurant on Fort Myers Beach. Cindy Andrew said he has seen more boats coming to the area from Panama City Beach, where fishermen have been hurt more by the closing of federal waters in the Gulf due to the spill.
The spill isn't the only worry for the Andrews.
"We are concerned with all the fishing regulations now," she said. "All the fishermen have been put on a quota since Jan. 1."
Ultimately, she said, she doesn't know whether she'll move ahead with the BP claim. But she's taken Thompson's advice. She's got a claim number in case she needs it.
"Let them chase you," Thompson said. "Let them tell you what they need."

Fait Accompli—USDA Decision on Herbicide-Resistant Crops Betrays Farmers and the Public
January 8th, 2014
On Friday, January 3, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) released a draft environmental impact statement (EIS) under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). This clears the way for approval of engineered soybeans and corn resistant to the herbicide 2,4-D, pending a final EIS and pesticide tolerances from EPA. Read More

Do We Need GMOs?
November 25th, 2013
Most observers agree that we are facing big obstacles to producing enough food sustainably in coming decades. Issues of distribution and food justice remain paramount, but production must also be adequate, and the huge impact that agriculture has on the environment must be reversed. Read More
Small Farms, Not Monsanto, Are Key to Global Food Security
October 17th, 2013
In the land of humongous farms, the critical importance of small farms for food security is a counterintuitive message. But if we look at what most of the largest farms are growing in the U.S. Midwest, or Argentina and Brazil, it is corn and soybeans to feed livestock and biofuel production. Neither contribute much to supplying food—and especially good nutrition—to the billions who cannot afford meat. Meat is a welcome part of many diets, but besides being expensive, is also an inefficient means to produce protein. Read More
Small Insect's Big Lessons for the Farm Bill: Agroecology and Breeding Top Monsanto's Industrial Agriculture
August 26th, 2013
My last post discussed the success of public sector scientists who discovered and developed genes in soybean, using conventional breeding, that confer resistance to the invasive soybean aphid. These insects cost US farmers billions of dollars per year.
In contrast, an article in the New York Times in late July used the dramatic example of citrus greening disease, which is threatening the citrus industry in the US, to tout the possibility of GE to remedy challenging pest problems. Whether these will eventually work is far from certain. But we should keep in mind that while such future promises catch the public's eye, breeding continuously makes significant advances in crop improvement. Read More
Genetic Technology's Answer to A Major Insect Pest
July 29th, 2013
It's a huge insect pest problem on soybeans, one of the country's major crops. A recent paper estimates that it costs growers 2 to 5 billion dollars annually in lost productivity and insecticide use. But fortunately technology has an answer—several genes that control the pest, and can reduce or eliminate the need for chemical insecticides that harm people and the environment. Read More

New code of conduct for credit and debit card companies good news for restaurant operators
"This is an important step in addressing concerns of our members about unfair business practices," said CRFA President and CEO,
CRFA has been calling on the federal government to provide greater oversight of the credit and debit card payment systems in
The government is to be congratulated for recognizing the imbalance in negotiating power between credit card companies and merchants. The new code is a first step toward ensuring increased transparency and disclosure by credit card companies while allowing merchants choice of the cards they accept and payment options they provide.
CRFA intends to participate fully in the consultation process regarding the new Code of Practice on behalf of its 33,000 members. CRFA will press the government to carefully monitor its implementation to ensure compliance by credit card companies.

Welcome Club Primo Velo!
After such a great 2014 we are extremely excited to announce the route for 2015! We continue to try to provide a challenging yet fun and sage Road Bike Tour in Colorado. The 2014 CRMBT will be tough to follow as we were the first to ride Pikes Peak but 2015 promises to once again be the weeklong Colorado bicycle tour for passionate cyclists. The Central Rocky Mountains again will offer challenging climbs, beautiful scenery and fun mountain towns for all of the 2015 participants. CRMBT is going to see areas that inspired early mountain men, prospectors, fur traders-you name it to come out to Colorado. Get away from the heat and experience crisp, clean mountain air at 12,000 feet!
What makes the CRMBT special is this is the tour that is created for cyclists by cyclists. We understand what makes a really memorable ride.
First off it's a the route. The 2015 route will take you over some of the highest and most challenging climbs in Colorado. But it's just not the big hills, it's the way the climbs and the days link to each other along with the towns we visit that make the 2015 route a really great ride. You will visit towns that people travel from around the world to visit.
Share this experience with friends and fellow cyclists, but at the CRMBT you're not sharing it with a huge crowd. The ride is capped at 500 riders, so you'll have plenty of opportunity to meet new friends on the road, but you won't get crowded out at the Aid Stations or long bathroom lines. There are hotel rooms available and you will get into the smaller town's restaurants without long waits. If you're camping, you'll find plenty space and showers. In other words - low stress on the logistics so you can focus on the ride.

Political Notebook: Recounts begin in three Florida legislative races
One Senate primary and two House races headed to recounts Friday after a deadline for counties to report unofficial results from Tuesday's elections.
Chris Cate, a spokesman for the Florida Division of Elections, said in a Twitter message that a recount is required in the Senate District 27 battle between Reps. Jeff Clemens, D-Lake Worth, and Mack Bernard, D-West Palm Beach.
Recounts also are required in a House District 55 race between former Rep. Randy Johnson, R-Sebring, and Cary Pigman, R-Avon Park, and in a District 107 race between Reps. John Patrick Julien, D-North Miami Beach, and Barbara Watson, D-Miami Gardens.
The recounts were triggered because each race was decided by less than one-half of 1 percent of the votes cast.
Most incumbents won legislative races
Despite the throw-the-bums-out messages, most incumbents won Tuesday.
In state legislative elections, a handful of competitive primaries may set the direction of the chambers in the years ahead.
Former Rep. Aaron Bean and Rep. Jeff Brandes easily won their bids for GOP Senate nominations. Both candidates – Bean in Duval and Nassau counties and Brandes in the Tampa Bay region — are aligned with Sen. Joe Negron, R-Stuart.
Negron is running against Sen. Jack Latvala, R-Clearwater, for Senate president in 2016-18.
Meanwhile, the Senate is guaranteed to lose one incumbent as Sen. Ellyn Bogdanoff, R-Fort Lauderdale and Sen. Maria Sachs, D- Boca Raton, battle it out in November.

Anglesey is a place where you can get away from it all. Relax, enjoy the hospitality and lose yourself in the island's winding lanes or on its spectacular coast.
Anglesey boasts 27 award winning beaches, six of them attracting the coveted Blue Flag award. Everyone has his or her favourite beach. The sweeping bays of Newborough, Red Wharf, Cemaes and Lligwy are impressive.Along the west coast you will find small postcard inlets, Borthwen or Porth Trecastell for instance, as well as the world class surfing destination of Rhosneigr. Anglesey becomes an extremely popular destination during the summer months, but such is the abundance of coves and sand, your only company might still be the seagulls, porpoises and a good book.
What is particularly appealing to families is that the beaches are clean. There are six Blue flag beaches, 13 Green Coast Award beaches, and seven Rural Seaside Award beaches. It means that in terms of cleanliness and the purity of water, these beaches far surpass the mandatory guidelines. Please use them….and, please, take your litter home and respect the next visitor.
This Cottage is situated in a lovely rural spot, 1 mile from Llanfairpwll on the Isle of Anglesey. The village of Llanfairpwll, or in full, Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, has the longest place name in Britain. It translates to: St Mary's Church by the white hazel pool, near the fierce whirlpool with the church of St Tysilio by the red cave.
The cottage offers an ideal base for visiting a range of fascinating local attractions and the castles of Beaumaris in Anglesey and Caernarfon on the mainland are both nearby. Seek out the glorious Blue Flag beaches, enjoy Anglesey's 125 mile coastal path or trek up the famous Snowdon Mountain. Nearby Llanddwyn Island and beach is steeped in history and legend and is closely associated with the Patron Saint for lovers in Wales, Saint Dwynwen.
Other attractions in Anglesey include the Copper Mountain with its surreal lunar landscape, Anglesey Oyster Festival in October and Bryn Celli Ddu's well preserved stone-age burial chamber near Llanddaniel Fab. Take a tour around Llynnon Mill - the only working Wind Mill in Wales and visit Oriel Tegfryn Art Gallery, the longest established Gallery in Wales.
For younger visitors Pili Palas' butterfly centre offers a magical experience and also features birds, snakes and other exotic species. Anglesey Sea Zoo, Wales' biggest aquarium offers an amazing world of marine life, shipwrecks and shark pool grids. The short bridge crossing to mainland North Wales offers even more family attractions including Glasfryn Park with karting, bowling, quad biking etc and Hwylfan Fun Centre, North Wales' largest indoor fun centre.

Although Reggae songs are thought to be generally evergreen, only a few stand the test of time in the long run. If that were to be a standing rule, then Blackky's 1991 debut album, About Tyme, turned out to be right on time. It produced countless hits like Blackky's Skank, Rosie, Bang Belly and the controversial Sugar Stick.
The work served as a launch-pad for the then 25-year-old artiste who bagged a deal with Polygram Records, shortly after winning the Lekki Sunsplash Talent Hunt Contest. Although the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission banned the tracks Yanshman, Sugar Stick and Bang Belly, the artiste, who started out as a DJ in 1986, was already a star. In the same year, he received a lot of awards, which signified the level of acceptability for his unique brand of music amongst all Nigerians of different age groups.
The album was unique in the sense that each song was carefully crafted, had easy-to-sing along choruses, very dance-able and capped with very catchy notes. The dungaree-sporting, crew-cut artiste was young and this helped a great deal in the vibrancy of his songs. His other hits over the years include Kissing Game with Naija pop star Esse Agesse, Delilah, Killer Disease and Aro. Although it's been 21 years since his debut album was released, Blackky, now aged 46, remains a reference point till date.
