The Binc staff have returned from Chicago, IL and recovered after a jam packed week attending Book Expo America 2016. Pam, Kit, and Penny DROVE to BEA 2016 this year since the Windy City is so close to Ann Arbor (#BEAorBust), along with board member and INscribe Digital EVP Anne Kubek.
Our First In-Person Board Meeting
On Tuesday, the day before BEA 2016, the staff and board of directors met for the first in-person, all-day board meeting in Binc's history! It was beneficial for everyone to finally meet face to face and be able to chat between sessions. Topics ranged from past accomplishments and successes to future planning and goal setting. The board voted Matthew Gildea to the role of Vice-President. Congratulations to Matthew!
And board president Lori Tucker-Sullivan surprised everyone with a cake to celebrate Binc's 20th anniversary! Thanks Madame President!
After the meeting everyone enjoyed dinner together to wind down, leading to plenty of talking and laughter.
Drinks with Binc (party pictures)
Wednesday brought the first half-day of BEA. Binc was once again welcomed to the ABA Booksellers Lounge to meet with bookstore employees from around the country.
We saw lots of old friends from across the book industry, from publishers to booksellers. We had the chance to meet many new booksellers who were attending BEA for the first time because of the Chicago location. After the trade show floor closed, Binc staff and board members hosted a 20th anniversary "Drinks with Binc" party at Doc B's. We had a great turn out with Binc fans filling the bar area. Though the party was LOUD, everyone had a fun time catching up with friends and colleagues from all facets of the book industry.
Party with a Purpose
After staying out way too late on Wednesday, Thursday brought another full day of meeting booksellers in the ABA lounge and on the floor at BEA. Penny attended a fantastic educational session on Facebook marketing from Cindy Ratzlaff who said if you only do one thing for social media this week, take a video of what you did at BEA!
The trade-show floor was hopping with tons of author signings and even a performance by Kenny Loggins that had everyone dancing.
After the show, the staff headed to the amazing Publishers Group West 40th anniversary party at the Double Door. Binc was again the designated charity for for this very popular party and attendees generously donated almost $1,300 to help booksellers. The great Mavis Staples and her band put on a tremendous show and had everyone cheering for more!
We can't thank Elise Cannon, Leslie Jobson and all the folks at PGW enough for giving Binc this great opportunity to reach out to booksellers with our message of helping one another.
Farewell to BEA 2016
On the last day of BEA 2016, our volunteer extraordinaire, and Chicago Cubs super-fan, Jennifer Keeley joined us in the ABA Lounge to keep an eye on our table while the staff visited the floor and attended educational sessions, including one given by Anne Kubek on Five Questions Publishing Leaders Need to Ask about Metadata. Now we know what BISAC codes are and how they can drive sales for publishers.
We also got the opportunity to meet and take selfies with the friendliest person in the world, actress and author, Jamie Lee Curtis!
As the day wrapped up, and set-up for BookCon began, we were sad to see BEA 2016 end. We enjoyed seeing new faces, the convenience of the Windy City venue and the relaxed Midwestern pace was a welcome change from the frenzy of NYC. (Yes, our Midwest roots are showing!)
This year's BEA in Chicago was a whirlwind of activity (pun intended) for the Binc staff and board members. It was great to see so many old friends and make many new connections. Thanks to all the booksellers, publishers, authors, volunteers and organizers for helping and supporting us at BEA each year! 2016 is a huge year for Binc, as we celebrate our 20th anniversary, and we're excited to share our adventures with so many supportive book people.
See you next year in New York City!

Enjoy this two-day tour around the Heart of England where you'll visit award-winning gardens, with sweeping lakes and parkland. Learn all about Shakespeare, including a tour of Anne Hathaway's family home set in a glorious English cottage garden.
Download the Shakespeare, Lakes and Grand Gardens itinerary (PDF, 1,547 KB)
Your tour begins at one of the country's top visitor attractions, the 725-acre Trentham Estate, just outside Stoke-on-Trent affectionately known as 'The Potteries'. There's plenty to do at Trentham, you'll find award-winning gardens, a shopping village, a garden centre, Monkey Forest and Aerial Extreme, a tree-based high ropes adventure course.
Located in The Trentham Estate is one of England's must-see gardens. Explore this stunning garden with a mile long 'Capability' Brown designed lake, Italian Garden, woodland and maze. From spring to autumn get close to nature and take a barefoot walk – it's positively encouraged. Look carefully and you may even see some fairies. Don't forget to bring your camera as this garden is a photographer's dream throughout the year, with picture-perfect views at every turn.
It's a one and a half hour drive south to the historic town of Stratford-upon-Avon, synonymous with William Shakespeare. Start your afternoon with a visit to Shakespeare's Birthplace, the house where the world's most famous playwright was born and grew up. Learn all about Shakespeare and follow in the footsteps of other well-known visitors including Charles Dickens, John Keats, Walter Scott and Thomas Hardy. Take a well-earned break in the café overlooking the garden before a pleasant 30-minute walk to the hamlet of Shottery, for our next stop at Anne Hathaway's Cottage and Gardens. See where the young Shakespeare courted his future bride at her picturesque family home. It's a traditional thatched cottage with many original features set in glorious gardens full of colour.
Visit during the spring and summer months and explore the butterfly trail or enjoy the amazing scent of the sweet peas, at their best in August. Return to the town of Stratford-upon-Avon for an evening meal at one of the many great places to eat shakespeares-england.co.uk

After a hearty English breakfast set off on a 15-minute drive to our next place of interest, Charlecote Park, a Victorian home set in landscaped deer park in a tranquil riverside setting. Take time to visit the house with treasures from the early works of Shakespeare to an impressive Beckford table. Follow the processional footsteps of Queen Elizabeth I from park to court through the historic Tudor Gatehouse. The 'parterre' formal gardens loved by Queen Elizabeth I are laid out in a symmetrical pattern on a gravel walkway, brimming with colour throughout the year. Take a stroll through the 'Capability' Brown inspired parkland and find the perfect spot to enjoy a picnic with views across the river Avon. But be aware, you may have to share some with the Jacob sheep and fallow deer who live here.
Take a short 45-minute drive north to the historic city of Lichfield and location of Erasmus Darwin House. Located by the cathedral, this was the home of Dr Erasmus Darwin, scientist, doctor, inventor, poet, botanist and grandfather of Charles Darwin. Enter through the maturing herb garden at the rear, formally divided into Mrs. Darwin's culinary herb garden and Dr Darwin's medicinal herb garden. Learn all about Erasmus Darwin, one of the greatest polymaths of the 18th century and Staffordshire's forgotten hero. "A fool you know, is a man who never tried an experiment in his life".
Just around the corner you'll find Lichfield Cathedral, the only medieval English cathedral with three spires. Take time to explore and learn about the long history of this important cathedral. Enjoy an afternoon tea or early supper in the unique 13th century walled garden, at Chapters 'the Café in the Close'.

We left our stunning lakeside retreat at Lagos de Colon and headed for San Cristobal for Christmas. New Years called for new plans, but we had fallen in love with this city on the way south, and heading north found her no less magical. That is other than the fireworks Christmas Eve that went on for nearly seven hours straight.
Christmas day, itself, was spent in the company of new friends, and with those still at camp from months before, all united by the holiday spirit. Alas, our time here was short. The question of where to ring in the new year had perplexed us for a time but once the decision to trek northwards was made we knew it had to be San Miguel de Allende.
The path less traveled is always our choice so our journey north took us to the Gulf of Mexico and the state of Veracruz, an as-of-yet undiscovered (to us) region. The first night on the road found us in Catemaco. This lakeside town is meant to be lovely. After a long drive and under cloudy conditions I'll take everyone else's word for it. One short night and we continued on, not relishing long travel days but feeling SMA calling us.
We settled on the unusual at the El Manglar restaurant parking lot in spritely named Chachalacas. For 100MX and the price of a pair of Micheladas and some shrimp, we had an ocean front campsite at our disposal for the night. When we arrived the local crowd was in full force, continuing their Christmas long holiday celebration, but as soon as the evening came upon us the parking lot cleared out and we were the long souls left. We had the beach to ourselves, the company of an adorable camp dog whom we called Mango, and some of the filthiest bathrooms we've seen yet.
Mango, having firmly attached himself to us, seemed intent on jumping on board for the road trip and we must admit, for just a moment, we wavered. As we pulled away I glanced back and rather than mournfully watching us go, he had already lasered in on the first arrivals at the restaurant and scampered their direction in search of a snack. So much for dog loyalty!
We hadn't loved Cholula the first time through. Yes, we know we should have given both it, and Puebla, a chance by hitting the historic center but big cities are rarely our gig. Thus, on the route north, we planned to take some side roads and head straight for Teotihuacan, one of our favorite spots. After three months stationary in Guatemala we were road weary and cranky after a few days on the road and I am simply grateful that, not far outside of the Mexico City driving zone, Jim asked which day of the week is was that we were not able to drive there, based on our license plate.
The travel gods were not in our favor that day as Wednesday was, in fact, a NO GO for us. Having just paid a hefty toll to take said highway, my mood was none too pleasant as we regrouped and, late in the day and without a lot of options, we changed course and made our way back to Cholula. Now, it's not that the town or campground is bad. We had stayed at Trailer Park Americas on our way down and it's just fine. We just were not in the mood for the traffic and congestion of the Puebla area and cringed at the thought.
Luckily, with the holidays still in full swing, the roads were smooth sailing, and a quick night and fast exit north raised our spirits. It was December 30 and San Miguel was on our radar.
Many overlanders and other "tough" travelers love to toss scorn towards SMA. And, granted, she is a glitzy, touristy, gringo-filled bonanza. But, she is also so much more. We had spent nearly two weeks in this most beautiful city on our way south and, as fortune would have it, nearly three weeks there this time around.
SMA is history and art personified. Walks through town are filled with scenery straight out of the "Most Beautiful Cities in Mexico" coffee table books. The stores are packed with wrought iron door knockers, amazing lamps, and gorgeous tilework. The meandering streets lead to the main plaza surrounded by hundreds of years of history. Truly, it may indeed by touristy but, guess what? As with all other miraculous sites of the world, there is a reason for the popularity. San Miguel is, quite simply, one of the most breathtaking places we have ever been.
Our planned time turned into a week, then two. In low season we had the place mostly to ourselves. In high-season, we were full with a revolving gate of travelers. And yet, there were "the regulars". Immediately upon our arrival Bill and Patty greeted us with good cheer. Kelly and Lizzy became immediate friends and tequila buddies. Edye, with her beautiful Saluki, camped right across from us. She was intimately familiar with the town and introduced us to several excellent finds.
Our days were spent working, socializing, trying out new restaurants, and hours wandering the back streets in search of an even lovelier scene. Dinner at Orequidea Comida Thai restaurant came complete with a back rub for me as the Thai chef is also going to be offering massage soon. A dog-friendly restaurant, Aspen not only got to join us for dinner but received her very own bowl of chicken and rice.
Sadly, we found the small bakery down the street from camp closed down, but discovered a new treat in the form of the best empanadas in the world, served out of the back of a mini-van along the side of the road. Nearly every day our morning walk found us ending here to spend 30MX, around $1.50USD for two flaky, still warm, empanadas with a choice of fillings. Jim preferred fresa (Strawberry) whereas I was inclined to go savory changing it up between fillings ranging from roasted poblano-mushroom to pepperoni-mozzarella.
One lazy day was spent with Kelly and Lizzy at El Manantial, a 100-year-old bar. The local specialty was a flight of sorts of a sipping tequila, a lime mix, and a clamato-habanero mix. The idea to take a sip of tequila, a sip of lime, and then a sip of the clamato mix. Absolutely divine. Combined with a variety of small plates, this was a favorite day in a year filled with a whole lot of magical moments.
One night we roused most of the camp and headed to dinner and a show, the type of event that would have cost us several hundred dollars in the US. Here in Mexico it was a splurge for us to be sure, but for around $40 USD we scored a couple of glasses of wine each, a delicious if somewhat skimpy dinner, and one of the best evenings of entertainment ever in the form of Gil Gutierrez and Lobo.
Gil is a well-known figure in SMA and owns the Bistro Mi Casa restaurant, set in a gorgeous old building with a stunning view of the cathedral. If the setting alone wasn't worth the price of admission, the music certainly is. Gil is, himself, a very talented Spanish guitarist, and the addition of Lobo was the creme de la creme. A fitting end to our time in this delightful town.
As we left town we waved a heartfelt goodbye to new friends, as ever wondering if we would see them again down the road. Further northbound we would trek towards yet another town full of magic… Zacatecas.

I promise not to tell a joke about them visiting a bar…
Often students go into their chosen field on autopilot, without consideration as to their fulfillment or even awareness of other possibilities. I imagine an idyllic world where people have the innate ability to become whatever they choose, and apply it to a greater good.
I recently read with great interest, an article in the Toronto Star about the dying art of shoemaking. This got me thinking about all the work that goes on day to day, by so many people who go unrecognized and unnoticed.
From a young age, we are conditioned to appreciate very specific career paths – doctors, lawyers, teachers, nurses, and architects as top of mind examples. But when you get out into the business of making a living, networking, and engaging with people from all walks of life, it's then that the volume of opportunities and their merit become more apparent.
Having said that, awareness and ability are only part of the equation. Financial resources must also be considered. Interestingly, also in the news that same day as the article on shoemaking, it was announced that a select number of "low income" students will be able to take the LSAT free of charge, in an effort to "level the playing field". I am encouraged to know that bright students who may have been deterred by the cost of the test will now have a chance to put themselves in the running for the career they seek...in this case law.
There are so many factors at play influencing the career we choose – awareness, skills, and financial resources are just a few. Regardless of those influences, I hope that the story of the shoemaker inspires more people to give broader consideration to all that is required to make this world hum. It's a big world. With any luck we find our place and fulfillment in our path, be it one that is publicly celebrated or not.

Nigerian-blooded, Dubai-based rapper GMAC presents "Turnt Up", his new single produced by Dameon Hughes. "Turnt Up" comes on the heels of the release of his previous single "Arab Swag" (listen on Soundcloud) which details his life in Dubai, where he moved five years ago. His event company UrbanBushMan has brought the likes of Nicki Minaj, Beenie Man, Ryan Leslie and Ace Hood to perform in Dubai. "I was working on the beat with Dameon Hughes while watching the news on the Mike Brown case and started researching other cases of police brutality on African Americans and I wanted to channel all that emotion into the beat I was vibing to, and 'Turnt Up' was born," GMAC says. "'Turnt Up' is a tale of my personal journey in the music industry as an artist in retrospect, the celebration of hiphop as a form of art, the success of millions of black people around the world that hustle everyday to make ends meet, the kids in the projects with dreams to be whatever it is they aspire to be in life and most importantly a tribute to the souls of thousands of victims of police brutality that didn't even make the headline news because #BlackLivesMatter and it's up to us to stand up for what is Just- Justice."

Arthur Janov
Dr. Arthur Janov is one of the world's leading psychologists and author of 11 books, including the international bestseller, The Primal Scream and his newest book, Primal Healing, published in November 2006. He is the Founder and Director of the Primal Center in Santa Monica, California. He has been elected to the Academic Hall of Fame of Claremont Graduate University.
Dr. Janov received his B.A. and M.S.W. in psychiatric social work from the University of California, Los Angeles and his Ph.D. in psychology from Claremont Graduate School. Before turning to Primal Therapy, he practiced conventional psychotherapy in his native California. He did an internship at the Hacker Psychiatric Clinic in Beverly Hills, worked for the Veterans' Administration at Brentwood Neuro-psychiatric Hospital and was in private practice for 1952 till 1967. He was also on the staff of the Psychiatric Department at Los Angeles Children's Hospital where he was involved in developing their psychosomatic unit.
The course of Dr. Janov's professional life changed in a single day in the mid-1960's with the discovery of Primal Pain. During a therapy session, he heard (as he describes it), "an eerie scream welling up from the depths of a young man who was lying on the floor". He came to believe that this scream was the product of some unconscious, intangible wound that the patient was unable to resolve. Since then, Dr. Janov has devoted his professional life to the investigation of that underlying pain and the development of a precise, scientific therapy that could mitigate its lifelong effects.
Dr. Janov has been conducting revolutionary research in the field of psychotherapy for more than three decades. As the originator of Primal Therapy, he has treated thousands of patients and conducted extensive research to support his thesis that both physical and psychic ailments can be linked to early trauma. He has concluded that patients can dramatically reduce such debilitating medical problems as depression, anxiety, insomnia, alcoholism, drug addiction, heart disease and many other serious diseases. In 1970 he introduced his radical new approach to therapy to the general public in his first book, The Primal Scream, which became a best-seller and has since sold more than a million copies worldwide.
In the last 30 years Primal Therapy has established itself as the only therapy producing deep changes in a host of psychosomatic symptoms and psychological problems. As Director and Supervisor of Research with the Primal Foundation Laboratory, Dr. Janov was the first psychologist to submit his results to scientific scrutiny. Studies at Rutgers, the University of Copenhagen, St. Bartholomew's Hospital in England and the University of California at Los Angeles have all supported his theory that Primal Therapy can produce measurable positive effects on the function of the human brain and body.
Dr. Janov and his wife, Dr. France D. Janov, co-director at the Primal Center, have lectured worldwide on Primal Theory and Primal Therapy, including to the Royal College of Medicine, London, England; Hunter College, New York; Karolinska Medical and Research Center, Stockholm, Sweden. His work has also been the subject of a PBS special in the United States and of documentaries in Germany, England, France and Sweden.
The latest research conducted at Dr. Janov's Primal Center on the effects of Primal Therapy on the brain was performed by Dr. Erik Hoffman, former Professor of Neurophysiology at Copenhagen University. This research has shown very clear changes in the brain as a result of feeling.
Dr. Janov has authored twelve books. His latest is "The Janov Solution, Lifting Depression through Primal Therapy- published September 2007. These books have been translated into twenty-four languages, throughout the world.
In 1989 in an effort to expand the Primal network, Dr. Janov established Dr. Janov's Primal Center in Santa Monica, California with his wife, Dr. France Janov.
We recognize the great need for therapists and therapy in the world. It is to that end that Dr. Janov's Primal Center was established in 1989 as a treatment, training, and research center under Dr. Arthur Janov's personal supervision. All the therapists here have had years of intense training with us and are all caring professionals. There are also other therapists who practice independently, outside the Center who have completed the training and maintain an association with us. You should verify credentials to practice Primal Therapy through our office.

From Primal Healing:
I've been on edge lately. Actually, I've been losing it really, but with good reason. Everyone is conspiring against me, even the therapists. That is how I went into my session on Tuesday. So you think I'm smoking dope again, and you told all the other therapists and everyone now hates me. Valerie (my therapist) didn't respond much, except to say, "How does that make you feel?" I'm always getting screwed; somebody is always out to get me. I'm always getting blamed for something, and everyone always ends up hating me for some reason or another. As I'm saying this, I start to feel a knot of tension in my stomach and a deep sadness. My eyes start to get blurry, and it's hard for me to talk. What's happening? Valerie says that I feel that I'm not good enough, I can't do enough, and nothing I do will ever be enough! I can't please everyone. I can't be perfect! I start to break down and cry.
The feeling keeps penetrating and my crying becomes serious. I lose all sense of time, and then out of the blue, this flashback pops into my head. I'm in high school during computer class hiding my face in my arms and pretending to sleep while everyone else is busy doing their work. I was miserable back then, and I would usually spend my days in class sleeping or pretending to sleep. The teacher called me up to her desk, and I was thinking, "Oh shit, I'm in trouble again," or maybe she was going to ask me if something's wrong. That's what I wanted her to say: "Is something wrong Nathan? What's the matter? Can I help you? You can talk to me, I'll listen." But no, she asked me some stupid question about my homework, I answered and went back to my desk to sleep.
Now the tears are pouring because nobody can see how much I hurt, nobody wants to help me, nobody cares, and I feel worthless! My muscles start to clench and I start to cough. I cough and cough and cough, to the point where it feels like I'm going to vomit. But I don't. A pressure seems to release after these coughing fits and I just lay there limp and flooded with tears. I calm down a bit and Valerie says, "Ask for help."
"No, I don't want to!"
"No, I don't want to; they should have been able to tell. They should have been able to see how much pain I was in, how hurt I was."
"Help me! Please help me! I need help!" And I'm back in it, full blown crying, spasms, muscles tensing up, and coughing. It goes on like this until I remember that phone call I made.
Just a few days ago, on Mother's Day, when out of guilt more than anything, I called my mom. "Happy Mother's Day," I said. But all heard back was how well my brother is doing. He just bought a new motorcycle, he just got a new dog, he just did this, he just did that. And I feel like shit, because my life is shit, and I can't get it together. She just keeps rubbing it in, making me feel worthless. Nothing I do is good enough. I can't do anything right; I'm such a disappointment! Here come the tears again. I realize that these present-day feelings stem from this. These memories of being neglected and manipulated all my life. But not only that, as the session winds down, my therapist tells me that she didn't think I was smoking dope, and she didn't tell the other therapists anything like that. It was all in my head! The animosity isn't real, the conspiracy isn't real, everyone against me isn't real. It was all just a feeling, me acting out a feeling. And for me that is the hardest thing to take. Realizing that my feeling's distort reality so much that I can't even tell what is real anymore, and then realizing that I have been doing that my entire life. Repeating this vicious cycle over and over and over. I think of how much time I've wasted chasing these false ideas. All the untrue things my feelings led me to believe and how it has made my life a complete mess.
But I feel relieved as the session ends, like some weight has just been lifted. And that is what makes this therapy so amazing. It is what makes these therapists so amazing. They are able to pull these things out of you, things you didn't even know were there and not only recognize them but feel them so you can change them and rebuild your life, a real life.
Case Study: Daryl—Three Non-Feeling Therapies
In cognitive behavioral therapy, the therapist focused almost exclusively on asking me to "change my negative thoughts" to more positive thoughts. For example, I was feeling very negative toward myself at the time this therapy occurred, and I would find this kind of self-talk happening within myself: "I'm a failure in my career." The therapist would ask me to "re-word" this statement to myself to say, "I'm not succeeding in my career at the present time." Well, this did not help at all. In fact, I simply got all jumbled in a lot of mechanistic ways of trying to handle internal problems that only ended in frustration and discouragement.
Another key approach of this cognitive behavioral therapist was to present me with a list of 12 "should" statements that people tend to use. Then, she would ask me to repeat the statement without using the word "should." For example, one of the original statements might have been, "I should be more competent." She would ask me to re-phrase this to say, "I am competent." Of course, this did not help at all because I did not, in fact, become any more competent by simply saying, "I am competent. " Much of her approach revolved around convincing me of the irrationality of my behavior in using "should" statements. To a great extent, she provided me with a list of rules and asked me to obey those rules. This approach completely ignored the feelings below the surface that were driving me to feel what I felt and, therefore, to say what I would say. Her approach did not take into account the principle of repression.
This therapist became very frustrated working with me. In fact, she discounted and denied the role of feelings in the therapeutic process. I reacted to her approach by being frustrated, discouraged, and disillusioned because her approach did not work for me.
In Jungian therapy, the therapist introduced me to the classical concepts within Jungian psychology: archetypes, anima, animus, collective unconscious, persona, shadow, active imagination, guided imagery, the Self, and interpretation of dreams. He also tried to stay within the classical Jungian psychological model in his therapeutic approach with me. He was a very intellectual person himself, and my gaining an understanding of these primary concepts was important to him. Therefore, he spent a lot of time with me in simply helping me to understand all of these Jungian terms and concepts. He did acknowledge and recognize the principle of repression, and he said that those things that have been repressed are now in "your shadow." His whole approach resulted in one prerequisite to healing on the part of the patient: the patient must have an understanding of these terms, concepts, and principles. His premise was simple: once the patient gains an understanding of her/his problem and these Jungian concepts, healing will naturally occur. So, understanding automatically brings healing.
But, in my case, understanding did not bring healing. Understanding brought mental gymnastics. The process of gaining an intellectual understanding brought a false illusion of healing. I frequently said to myself, "Now that I have an intellectual (intelligent) understanding of what the problems are within me, I will be cured. I had this belief over and over, but it never did bring about true healing. Instead, it brought about a temporary false sense of confidence that "now I've got the problem nailed down, I will be okay."
The Jungian approach helped only temporarily and then, only slightly. However, each time I came to understand the problem, I truly thought that I would be cured. It never happened. As a result I became discouraged and disillusioned. In fact, the process of intellectualizing actually slowed down the healing process in that it covered over the real feelings that needed to be felt.
In Gestalt therapy, the therapist gave an initial impression that feelings would play a primary role in my therapy. In fact, they never did. Gestalt therapy, for me, ended up somewhere in between cognitive behavioral and Jungian therapy. My Gestalt therapist made use of role playing as a way of trying to help me gain insights into my behavior. At times, she would say, "I want you to play your father and use this scenario." At other times, she would ask me to play the role of the boss with whom I was having difficulty at that particular time. In all cases, the role-playing scenarios did nothing to bring about healing. The therapist was very impressed with her approach and what she thought was happening, but I was not experiencing anything significant in terms of real progress. Therefore, over a period of six months to a year, I became discouraged and disillusioned with the process. In fact, I lost confidence in this particular approach as well as in the therapist. She sensed my frustration and this caused friction in our relationship. Eventually, I discontinued my therapy with this therapist.
In conclusion, let me comment on what I see as the need for patients to evaluate and provide feedback to the therapist. It would be so simple for therapists of all psychological approaches to develop an evaluation/feedback form in order to seek feedback on how the therapeutic process is going. What the therapist thinks is occurring might not be the case at all.
Feeling better is fine. But we must keep in mind that the caring we get now cannot make up for the lack of it when it was critical. The critical period has passed. If it hadn't, then the doctor's caring would heal us. Because it is after the critical period, it is only palliative. It may help stabilize a shaky defense system, but it never eradicates need. I will repeat ad nauseam: we cannot love neurosis away. Even if we could resurrect Momma and have her kiss and hug her grown-up child, no amount of love in the present can reverse the damage. That is why a kindly therapist, who is concerned and interested, cannot re-establish equilibrium in his patient. No amount of his caring and insights will induce any profound change. No psychotherapy can alter those needs, nor can the drug-taking or other act-outs they drive, once they are sealed in.
More broadly, we must keep in mind the futility of using ideas to treat the effects of deeply ingrained traumas. As we shall see, it is not possible to use ideas and thinking processes, which literally came along millions of years later in the evolution of brain development, to affect what is lower in the brain and evolved millions of years earlier. (page 52)
No amount of fulfilment later on can replace an early deficit of love and caring. This means that no amount of caring by a therapist can produce any profound change in the patient. She is long past her critical period. To repeat: you cannot love neurosis away. Of course, caring in the present can act as a holding action, keeping the real deprivation at bay for a short time; it tranquilizes but cannot be curative. And it has to be tranquilized all of the time lest the pain surge forth. That is why many patients seek conventional therapy ad infinitum. (page 109)
There is a book called The Blank Slate by Steven Pinker. (4) Dr. Pinker is a well-known writer on matters of the brain. His specialty is cognitive neuroscience. ("Cognitive neuroscience" seems to be one more oxymoron. If neuroscience limits itself to the study of the thinking brain, the rest of the central nervous system and its interrelationships with the thinking area are likely to be ignored.) Pinker claims throughout his work that nurture, the environment, is never a match for nature—what we inherit. He points out that criminals are rarely rehabilitated, which is proof, he believes, that criminal tendencies must be inherited. What he does not consider is first, the impact of early life shaping future criminals, and second, that perhaps our treatment of criminals is what is wrong, particularly when he is an advocate of the cognitive approach, which is bound to fail with criminals. The logic then continues: because we cannot make the criminal well, it must be because it is an inherited tendency. Naturally, this reasoning doesn't put his therapeutic approach into question. Few, if any, professionals have seen the depths of the unconscious and observed the pain imprinted there. Therefore, they cannot know what nurture really is and what it can do to us. This is doubly true when the months of gestation and the first months of infancy are ignored. Because there is hardly any cognition going on, to speak of, in the first three years of life, when cognition is the focus, one is bound to ignore the most crucial formative times in life. (page 129/130)
I must hasten to add a caveat here. Nearly every cognitive/insight talk therapy fills the needs of the patient symbolically. The patient is acting neurotically in the hope of getting well. She is being a good, smart, helpful patient. The therapist is focusing only on her. How long has it been since someone paid exclusive attention to her? And for an hour! Is it any wonder that her therapy is addicting; the insights are a small adjunct to it all. The attention is preponderant. I point out elsewhere that the choice of the therapy is often another act-out. The patient is going back for love, caring, and approval. She gets it and it is another symbolic act, and therefore her neurosis is reinforced. The therapist gives us exactly what we needed from our parents; it is, unfortunately, 20 or 30 years too late. It is a bottomless pit that no one can fill. (page 135)
Constantly being on the move is a good example of this act-out; a mad flight from the feeling, just as others who feel as if they are failures are in a desperate search to try to feel like a winner. As I have noted, the definition of an act-out is behaving out of unfulfilled needs. Unfulfilled needs start the accelerator going. Even in depression, which looks like total lethargy and passivity, there is a highly active system. (page 137)
It is easy to become entangled in a mesh of thoughts that bind us, the more labyrinthine the better—hence the attraction of insight therapy. One is now a captive of those beliefs, and he enters into his slavery willingly, because this slavery is also an important defense. If fascism were ever to come to America, it would no doubt come by popular vote not by autocratic edict. We would slip into unquestioning obedience to the leader gladly, for it would relieve us of having to think for ourselves. He would protect us from the evil "out there." I am reminded of those who dive for sharks in steel cages. They have no freedom of movement but it is a fact that the sharks cannot get to them. Their steel cage is their defense and their prison. Chemical prisons are just as strong as those steel ones. They allow for few alternatives in behavior. Beliefs are the psychic equivalent of repression. We can rechannel the flow but we will not change the volcanic activity. We can cap the explosion with ideas, but there is always a danger of another eruption; sometimes it is in the form of a seizure, other times it is found in being seized by a sudden realization—finding God and being born again. (page 178)
In rebirthing or LSD therapy, the patient is plunged into early remote pains; too often the result is incipient or transient psychosis. One of our patients went to a weekend meditation group that practiced deep breathing. (This was without our knowledge. It is forbidden in our therapy, for obvious reasons.) He came back to us in pieces, totally symbolic, speaking of cosmic forces and past lives. That deep breathing weakened his defenses and opened the gates artificially. The overload threw him into symbolism as the frontal cortex struggled to make sense out of liberated pains that were not ready to be felt and integrated. (page 183)
If we follow evolution and allow feeling before ideas in psychotherapy, then we cannot go wrong. If we defy evolution, and use ideas before feelings, then we must, perforce, go wrong. The same is true for those rebirthers who decide to plunge patients into remote and devastating pains right away in psychotherapy. There is no integration because the valence is so heavy and the pains are thrown up out of sequence. The same is true for those who use drugs and hallucinogens to get to deep early feelings. The system cannot possibly integrate (even though often the patient and therapist are convinced that progress has taken place). Integration means a slow descent from the present and top level prefrontal cortex to lower limbic/feeling areas and finally to the deeply rooted and engraved imprints around birth and infancy. We need to prepare the soil for heavy pains. When they intrude suddenly into the top level, there is of necessity a disintegration taking place. We see this in our vital sign research where signs go up and then down sporadically without any cohesion to them. They tell us there is no integration. (page 205)
A person is suspicious of being hurt by others because he was hurt so badly by insensitive parents; in Dan's case, a cruel mother. He projected this fear onto others who he thought wanted to hurt him. Dan was slightly paranoid at the start of therapy, questioning even the nice things he would hear. "Did you really mean it? I thought you were putting me on." His suspicions went from the personal and idiosyncratic (his mother in the past), to the general (everyone else in the present). "They" are trying to hurt me. When we took Dan back from the universal "they" and transformed it into a personal "me," the paranoid ideas were diminished or eliminated. The general had become the particular, which then produced a general law. (page 211)
If the therapist has the need to be helpful and get "love" from the patient, he can act this out in therapy. I remember feeling my need to become a therapist and be helpful, trying symbolically to help my mentally ill mother to get well and be a real mother. No one is exempt from symbolic behavior. And it is certainly more comfortable for a patient to act out his needs and get them fulfilled (symbolically) in therapy, and imagine he is getting somewhere, than to feel the pain of lack of fulfillment. It is understandable that the idea of lying on a matted floor crying and screaming doesn't appeal to some. Pain is not always an enticing prospect. Thus, the cognitive/insight therapist can be similarly deceived and entangled in the same delusion as his patient: both getting love for being smart. It is a mutually deceptive unconscious pact. (page 227)
Religion puts a moral slant on our hidden "evil" forces, but it amounts to the same thing. Psychology becomes religion by another name. If not, what are those impulses? Where do they come from? Are they immutable forces that cannot be changed? If not, how do we change them? Their leitmotif is that demons live inside of us that shall remain unalterable and nameless, a kind of genetic evil. We are born with it, and that is that. Here is where the cognitivists join the Freudians, who join the Jungians, who join the priests in thinking our main job is to hold down these dark, evil shadow forces. The reason that so many psychologists consider those negative forces immutable is that not having deep access, there is truly no way to change them, hence they are immutable. This is an example of circular logic. (page 228/229)
The following are two patients with two different kinds of compulsions. The first, a woman who must hang all her shirts in the same direction. She gets very nervous if one shirt isn't hanging right. The insight in her feeling was, "I could never get it right. Nothing I could do would make my parents say, 'You've done a good job.'" As it is with her shirts, she had to check over and over again because she still felt she didn't get it right. She was acting out symbolically, "Everything I do is wrong. Nothing I can do will make them approve and love me." Another patient is addicted to video games. It is not something he just plays; he is addicted and must do it. Why? To feel like a winner. No matter how many times he won, however, he still felt like a loser, something his father called him constantly. He was trying to shake that feeling, but never could. In life he felt like a failure; he didn't know what else to do to get rid of that feeling. He chose, as in every neurosis, a symbolic channel. Until he felt in a session over and over again, "I'm not a failure, Daddy. Say I'm good— just once!" Feeling that stopped the act-out; he had to feel that many times. (page 252)
From Prisoners of Pain:
I use to believe in God but now I understand my religion was more or less an attempt to get closer to my dad, who was a devoted, if not dedicated Christian. That would have the way to close the gap between us, the way to look in his inner life and to show him mine. When I told him enthusiastically about my believe (enthusiasm based on hope I would finally get the answer I desired), no reaction came. It was like I casually had said something. Looking back I realized that from that moment I rejected the whole Christianity. What I intensely had hoped to get from my father, I hoped to get the same from God. I needed someone who could see my Pain, someone I could turn to and talk in confidence with. No one in my environment was like that, so God became that one. I couldn't bear the Pain I was surrendered to, but that became the burden of an Almighty. All I needed was someone who could understand me; and if someone by definition could understand everything, the better it was. God was the father I wanted to have. God was the father in the sense of an enlightened authority, and Christ was the father of friendship and hope. Because I hadn't succeeded to win my father for me by joining him in his 'cage', I stepped out determined and started to pound the bars. I wanted to challenge him to an open reaction from man to man. I got involved in the left-wing politics. It's clear to me where I'm standing now that my involvement in this area (not to mention the objective correctness of my motive) was neurotically motivated. My passionate struggle against the establishment was a symbolic reflection of the struggle with my father. By attempting to make the establishment act justified by pointing on society's injustice, I know that in reality I was trying to push him awake to tell him: 'Look at me, dad; look what you've done to me!' I remember saying very insulting things to him about politics, just to provoke him into a reaction. I did that because he usually was showing such a passive, non-reactive appearance. I symbolized my need for dad by demanding the rulers to take care of the poor and minorities. I proclaimed socialism because I wanted justice for all. (...) I never received what I needed. I stood up for the socially oppressed because for my own oppression
From The Primal Revolution:
When I'm feeling shitty, I can either not like me and try to figure out what's wrong with me, and all the shit I should go through to get me to like me, or I can just feel the pain. Many times I choose the mind trip, and cover up the pain. It hurts, dammit! I don't want to feel it all the time. But always, sooner or later, the 'thinking it out' trip becomes ridiculous, and my Primals begin. (Page 136)
Give a depressive a new outlet, a new job, a party, or a chance to go shopping, and all of the inner-directed pressure now pours out in manic activity. He will literally 'throw himself' into his work. He will be 'happy' for those moments when his work will make him happy. What has really happenedis that he has found an outlet for tension - an outlet that continues to hide the Primal sadness. But great release of tension feels like happiness for the neurotic, and the relief feels better than that inner-pressured feeling that accompanies depression. So we can see that some of us shut down early in life and, sans outlets, become 'dead' and depressed. Others shut down and 'act' alive. If being the 'happy clown' pleases one's parents, then the act will continue. The child will still be sad because he could not be himself. If there was no way to please, if one was disliked, suppressed, and rejected at every turn, then deadness and depression will result. Take away the 'happy clown's' chances to perform, and the lurking sadness will begin to ascend. (Page 142)
Neurotic societies further the dichotomy between the mental and the physical. There are mental workers and physical ones (white-collar and blue-collar workers). In the popular mythology, labourers aren't supposed to think or use big words, and intellectuals do not perform physical labour. Both, being split, may be exploited so that their brains and brawn are used and corrupted in the service of the system. The division between mental and physical workers means that an intellectual can study and work at something, coming up with solutions that have no relevance to real people. The worker can remain at a mindless job, never using his brain at all. In a real society there would be no dichotomy, no split between the body and mind worker. Intelligent people would not tolerate a neurotic, split society. They would not be content to work at unthinking jobs. I believe that the neurotic split has been the reason that a truly psychobiological psychotherapy has not been discovered heretofore. Mental workers (psychologists) have tried to find 'mental' solutions that were psychobiological. (Page 162)
From The Biology of Love:
Today's conventional psychotherapist inadvertently and mistakenly reinforces the gating system of patients by using the tools of concern, listening, care, guidance, and advice. Therapy can become another act-out for the patient who is unconsciously getting what he wants (symbolic fulfillment) instead of what he needs (feeling the lack of fulfillment as a child). The implication is that you can have good intentions and love neurosis away. If all those fail, the therapist uses the more direct means of quelling need/pain by prescribing tranquilizers. A therapist who tries to build a patient's self-esteem by telling her, "You really are capable, you know," is actually encouraging the patient to block out her real feeling of "I'm bad. People don't love me because I'm worthless." By trying to "love" pain away by being "nice," the therapist is fighting reality. He is functioning as the brain gate for the patient. In Primal Therapy, we want to open the gate and let in love, beauty, and life! To do that we must open the gate to real feelings of "No one loves me. I'm unlovable. It is all so hopeless," etc. (Page 279)

About samsara
Never would have pegged Amanda F'n Palmer as the litigious type.
jwz's rant was absurd for a number of reasons, but on this one especially. Palm has all but endorsed PreCentral's homebrew market, and getting it going on the phone is dead simple. There are no restrictions on the phone at all, and no DMCA violations to worry about. Palm will certainly not call you a terrorist for using your phone as you please, either.

Grand Finale: Saints Slam Canaries With Late Comeback, 8-4ST. PAUL, MN August 16, 2018
The St. Paul Saints had not hit a grand slam since July 4, 2016. Tied in the bottom of the eighth with the bases loaded, Zach Walters broke that drought with a home run to right, propelling the Saints to an 8-4 victory over the Sioux Falls Canaries on Thursday night at CHS Field in front of 8,316. The win improves the Saints to 48-36 and puts them alone in first place in the North Division by a 0.5 game, with 16 to go. Gary SouthShore did not play on Thursday night and the Saints have a 1.5 game lead on the second playoff spot as Fargo-Moorhead has yet to finish.
With the Saints down a run in the bottom of the eighth and facing the Canaries closer Kyle Schepel, who had not allowed an earned run in 5.2 innings against the Saints in 2018, Joey Wong started things with a one-out double. Max Murphy singled in Wong to tie the game at four. He finished the night 3-5 with an RBI and a run scored. Then Kyle Barrett, who also had a three-hit game and extended his own hitting streak to 13, singled to put runners on first and second. With two outs and first base open, Brady Shoemaker was intentionally walked to get to Walters, who had just eight hits in his last 10 games. On a 2-0 count, Walters ripped a Schepel heater over the home run porch in right to give the Saints their final lead of the night.
After scoring 30 runs through the first three games of the series, the Saints failed to capitalize with runners in scoring position in the series finale. They racked up another 15 hits, but left 10 men stranded, having to rely on their power to push across early runs.
With two outs in the bottom of the third inning, Burt Reynolds slammed a fastball from Canaries starter Dylan Thompson off the back of the Saints bullpen to tie the game at one. It was Reynolds' 17th home run of the season and 13th as a Saint.
Dante Bichette Jr. then delivered the first pitch of the fourth over the left field fence and, two batters later, Justin O'Conner homered to dead center to give the Saints a 3-1 advantage. Bichette Jr.'s sixth long ball of the year also extended his hitting streak to 16 games. O'Conner, returning from a three-game absence due to illness, went 2-4, hitting his 11th home run of the year, driving in one and scoring one. The four home runs on the night tied a season high.
From there, the offense fell silent as they turned the lead over to starting pitcher Trevor Foss. Despite walking a season-high five batters, Foss pitched 6.1 innings, allowing three runs (two earned), while striking four in his fourth quality start for the Saints.
The Canaries drove Foss from the game in the seventh after he allowed the first two runners to reach and then, after a Jordan Smith sacrifice, Dan Motl cut the deficit to one with an RBI single. Beck Wheeler relieved Foss and, with two outs, threw a wild pitch, which brought home Maxx Garrett to tie the game at three.
Jordan Dean would give the Canaries the lead an inning later, leading off the eighth with a solo shot to left. The 4-3 Canaries advantage would set the stage for the bottom of the frame and Walters heroics.
The Saints begin a two-game set on Friday Night at CHS Field against the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks. The Saints send RHP Jake Matthys (6-7, 4.88) to the mound against RHP Michael Tamburino (6-5, 4.02). It is an Xcel Energy Friday Night Fireworks featuring the music of Led Zeppelin. The game can be seen on the Saints Cable Network, cable access channels in and around the Twin Cities, and heard on Alt 93.3 FM.

[TLBAT] Intranet: The concept behind it
In this post I'll explain how our Download Center will be constructed, how it works and what's the idea behind it.
The Download Center is a project I developed in the past for a company where I worked for; this project was a part of another part of the project that had two main goals: first I was trying to reduce the overall cost of the IT department in Europe, the second was to improve the relationship the IT Department and the rest of the world, that's to say The Users!
At that period the IT Dept. wasn't seen very good because we were spending a lot of money for upgrades, technology changes and so on, this was resulting in a bad consideration of our department versus the users because they just thought "They are spending a lot of money with no real advantage and, above all, I have no visibility on how this budget is spent."
By creating this project and others I was able to A) reduce IT costs by 20% (reduced telecommunication costs with another project) and B) Give the Users more control on their IT assets, expenses and have them do many things "self-service" resulting for us in a significant decrease of the customer calls and consequentially reducing the workload on the IT staff.
Ok, go ahead now and see why I created this project! The company had a lot or "road-runners" that means that many users were travelling a lot in Europe, Asia, US and most of them had no Administrative privileges at all so we had the need of providing them a tool that allowed to obtain the Company licensed software in the easiest, fastest way possible.
The Download Center is a set of ASP pages that relies on 2 Microsoft Access databases and the Domain users/groups membership to work.
The two databases were called downloads.mdb and hits.mdb (we'll discuss later their table structure), while the Domain users/groups part was used to check whether the user visiting the page was entitled to download/install the given software. Let's say: you need Microsoft Frontpage? You must be a member of the "MSFrontPage" security group.
In addition to this feature the Download Center is also capable of redirecting the users to the closes server possible so this also reduce the download times and costs because the road-runners where mainly connected in RAS and VPN from Hotels.
In the next post I'll discuss more about the databases and the start page…keep on reading!

Hi, I'm Katina Chapman and I offer a wide range of alternative therapies that complement each other. Each therapy is designed to help you empower your life, build confidence and feel stronger and healthier.
I worked for over 20 years in Human Resources as a HR Manager and Head of HR. During my time I helped many people overcome anxiety and stress, build confidence and empower their lives. I used the many skills I picked up coaching people as well as the more esoteric skills of meditation and other spiritual practises.
I work with people who are looking to make positive changes in their life. Many of my clients are looking to manage stress, get rid of fears and phobias or lose weight and adopt a new set of habits easily. Habits that are realistic, that meet their goals and that they can live with in the long term.
I recently helped a young girl, who was afraid of flying, fly for the first time to be a bridesmaid in Greece. I helped a boy with a severe fear of dogs, that he'd had his whole life, become relaxed around dogs and even get a puppy. I helped a business executive who was struggling to manage stress, increase productivity and be less stressed at the same time.
I love helping individuals and groups make positive changes in their lives. Nothing encourages me more in my business than hearing the next client who says 'you've changed my life.'
I make positive changes with clients in the minimum of sessions possible. I offer a telephone consultation free of charge and will give an honest opinion as to whether hypnotherapy is the way forward or not for an individual's issues.
Educational Performance
Menopause Relief
For best results and to make a permanent change, I recommend a programme of sessions. Programmes vary in length according to the area you wish to address, typically a programme will consist of 3 to 6 sessions. Each session is personalised to your needs and includes any supporting MP3s, and continued support throughout the programme.
