Quote from: talkingamoeba on March 14, 2008, 11:06:06 PMToo cool JP. Just wondering, are Africanized more likely to build in the open?Not sure, but I think they are more prone to build in the open. I have seen pics of open ahb hives and I have read of open ahb hives....JP
Well, it is almost a week later. Did they call you and let you take it away? What a great looking hive!!!DennisB
I thought the AHB was more prone to living in holes in the ground rather than out in the open like that. They settle into storm drains, manhole covers, well heads, etc. Eh, what do I know about them, hopefully they'll never develop the ability to live up here in the frozen north! :-P

|William Luther Bigelow Lawrence Diary Excerpts
|Excerpts from the diary of William Luther Bigelow Lawrence. He details joining the Nashville Guards, the scarcity of provisions, and the surrender of Nashville. He proclaims the trampling of private rights by Federal soldiers, the fleeing of his slaves, the demise of his grocery business, and the destruction of his farm and property with the Battle of Nashville.
|Historical note
|Before the Civil War, William Luther Bigelow Lawrence practiced law in Nashville and managed his farm, "Hillside" located south of Nashville. During the war, his fledgling grocery business failed. After the war he would try his hand at store keeping again, involve himself in farm management, and teach school. His wife, Corinne Hayes, was the sister of Adelicia (Hayes) Franklin Acklen Cheatham.

Thermometer 32°. Willie & I in doors nearly all day. Yesterday was the day appointed for the execution of the notorious John Brown of Harpers Ferry & Kansas memory. I see from reports by the telegraph that he has paid the extreme penalty of the law for his crimes at Harpers Ferry, where he headed an insurrection the object of which was to free the slaves of Virginia, some four or five others were condemned to die with him. This is the first scheme of the kind which has ever been openly attempted in this country & it has promptly met with its just retribution, but yet I fear, speedily as it has been quelled it is but the beginning of a chain of events which will ultimately end in the dissolution of our glorious Union.

The internecine war of Lincoln waged against the unoffending South still progresses, every preparation is being made to fasten the yoke of bondage upon the beautiful & chivalrous Southern country. But our people are determined to be forever free & independent of the Northern fanatics & tho the war may be long & bloody we will never submit. Many battles have already been fought with great odds against us yet in almost every single engagement the Great God of battles has favored our side. Mason & Slidell have been captured, thrown into prison & subsequently ignominiously surrendered to the British Lion. The Stone Blockade has commenced & England & France are indignant. A fair product now exists of the breaking up of the blockade. Provisions are exceedingly scarce in the Cotton States. Pork is selling at $40 per barrel & not enough to supply the demand. Beef has been packed extensively in this place and sells at $30 per barrel. The Government has bought many thousand hogs for the use of the Army at 10 cents gross. Clothing & shoes bear enormous prices. We trust in Providence & hope for the "better day a-coming" Sunday Jan 19th The Revolution moves on, and attack upon Bowling-Green has been expected for some time but as the invader still stands aloof – Nashville seems to be the great aim of our enemy at present, he has already advanced upon Forts Henry & Donelson & causes considerable excitement here Sunday Feb 16th A few days since Fort Henry fell into Federal hands. Today Nashville is all excitement in consequence of the surrender of Fort Donelson with Gen. Buckner & some ten thousand men. Federals looked for him in a few days –" [Page 75] "1862 Feb 23rd Sunday.

This day was celebrated here by a Military Procession & Speaking at the Capitol. The display of Union flags about the City was meager in the extreme, scarce a dozen private houses showed their colors. The citizens took no part whatever in the Procession.

Our corn crop is splendid, or wheat indifferent our oat a failure. The Federal Soldiers have materially injured the Poultry crop in this region of country. January Anno Domini 1863 Many incidents of importance to the People & to the Nation have transpired since my last writing in this book, which are now matters of history. The first Summer in this portion of Tennessee witnessed a "Reign of Terror" which I hope never to see enacted again. Communication between this place & Louisville being cut off gave license to the Federal Soldiers to commit acts of barbarism unbecoming a civilized people even toward a savage foe. Private rights of every character were trampled under foot in the most outrageous manner. But thank Heaven we have yet a little life to live upon & things look a little better now. Gen. Negley was Commandant of this Post last Summer but his command is now at Murfreesboro. The great & bloody Battle of Stone's River has just been fought & is now a matter of history. May 1st My fencing being all destroyed or removed about my tillable land, have rented some land from Mrs Montgomery at $3 per acre, & have made a garden in my Poultry yard. Daniel Bryson of the 78th Penn has been military guard for our Premises for six months. June 1st The war still goes on with little or no prospect of a speedy termination.

Bragg has fallen back to Look-out Mountain, Gilmore & the Fleet have attacked Fort Wagner, meeting a repulse & heavy loss. The prospect of the Confederacy at this time look decidedly "blue". The draft is being carried out in the North generally including men of all colors & the blacker the better. In New York however in consequence of mob violence & resistance draft has been temporarily suspended. Gen R. L.

Made a little corn & hay for the which are very thankful. Friday March 11th Determined to make something to live upon if possible during these troublous times, I have this day formed a Partnership with D.

Expenses are very heavy & profits short. Dec 15th The great Battle of Nashville was fought today in which the Confederates under Gen Hood was completely overthrown by Gen Thomas. From my hill I witnessed the engagement & listened to the incessant roar of the artillery the rattle of small arms & the shouts of the advancing columns. The Federal lines of ranks ran transversely across my place & just by my front door. Gen Beaty made his Headquarters at my house with his Staff & servants occupied every room in it. A portion of the time the weather was very cold & all my fencing, the work of many months of toil to me was swept away in a very few days. All my Quarter Buildings & oat houses were entirely consumed & all furniture that I had not moved to town was completely destroyed. I also lost all my stock, consisting of cows, horses, hogs, pigs, & c. We are at present staying at Charley Thompson's who has kindly taken us in until the excitement is over. Dec 24th The military have left my premises & Oh what an uninviting prospect is before me! All my lovely forest & shade trees destroyed, my beautiful yard a mudhole & ruin & debris scattered all around me, nothing but the naked dwelling left & yet how thankful I feel for even that little. It might have been worse" [Page 80] "1865. Anno Domini 1865. Back home again, not the beautiful, quiet place I left a short time since, but a rugged, churless, barren, forlorn, "Black-House". We have gone to work to make ourselves comfortable for the balance of the winter. We can keep warm at all events, as the amount of "rubbish combustible," lying about us is considerable. March 30th Have moved our Grocery stock to Wm. Lyons & Co on Market Street. Have concluded to close out & dissolve partnership. We have not been as fortunate in business as we had hoped we should be & Groceries have tumbled upon the first prospect of Peace. July 4th 1865 Peace, Glorious Peace once more smiles upon our distructed Country. Swords will be sheathed & the artillery cease to belch forth its distructive contents, but yet it is dreadful to reflect upon the number of Gallant Spirits that have been sacrificed in the bloody contest that I hope never to see renewed again Dec 1865 Have spent the Summer & Fall mainly in making repairs & fences around my land East of the Granny-white Pike into about 10 acre lots, which I propose to rent or lease, as under the present state of labor I cannot cultivate to my satisfaction. Much land is offered for sale & lease in this county & many transactions in that way take place daily. We have laid off Rokeby Place also for the purpose of renting & leasing out."

George Graham was arguably at the height of his managerial powers during the afterglow of Italia '90. Sprinkling his pre-season interviews with phrases like "hunger" and "fighting spirit", he was clearly psyching the team up for another assault on the First Division summit some 12 months after the night at Anfield.
Tellingly, he also spoke about "battling against the odds to achieve goals". It was a portend of the forthcoming 1990/91 campaign, which was laden with adversity and obstacles. Graham raided Highbury's coffers in order to rejuvenate his jaded ex-champions, although his first purchase, QPR stopper David Seaman (£1.3million), proved to be a controversial choice, as he replaced the popular John Lukic in goal.
Shoring up the central defence was Andy Linighan, whose £1.25 million move from Norwich City provided excellent back-up for David O'Leary, Tony Adams and Steve Bould. But it was the arrival of Cremonese's Swedish winger Anders Limpar which was arguably the boldest move by Graham in the transfer market. A replacement for the outgoing Brian Marwood, Limpar's impact during the early months of the season, along with Seaman's consistency behind the back four, proved the springboard for Arsenal's title charge.
Unbeaten in their first eight league matches, the Gunners side headed to Old Trafford to face Alex Ferguson's emerging Manchester United, and a smartly taken goal by Limpar was sufficient for Arsenal to come away with all three points. Yet arguably the pivotal point of the season lay in the brawl between both sides which ensued in the second half, and which saw Graham's men deducted two points. The Football League's decision was reached just days before Arsenal faced reigning champions Liverpool at Highbury, and newspaper headlines suggested that the League had gifted the title to Kenny Dalglish's men.
Alan Smith recalled: "We used the points deduction to our advantage, and George used it to further cement our fortress mentality." The sense of injustice felt by the players certainly worked in their favour as they swept Liverpool aside 3-0 at Highbury in a game shown live on ITV. Even after captain Tony Adams was jailed for drink driving offences, Arsenal never looked back. They won the title by seven points from Liverpool, having also won 1-0 courtesy of Paul Merson's goal at Anfield in early March. Smith with 22 league goals, ran out Golden Boot winner, and Arsenal only conceded 18 goals all season.
A single defeat (2-1 at Chelsea) prevented the Gunners from going through the entire league season unbeaten, and Graham expressed his hope that Arsenal could go on to prosper in the European Cup the following season.
The reigning champions endured a tricky start to the following campaign, but quickly fell into their stride by late September and began to score goals at will. Graham remained convinced that an out-and-out striker was needed and bought Ian Wright from Crystal Palace for £2.2 million in late September. His impact was sensational, bagging a hat-trick on his league debut at Southampton. But it was the manner of the Club's departure from Europe which arguably changed the course of the Club's fortunes in the 1990s.
After gaining a hard-fought 1-1 draw in the Stadium of Light against Benfica, Arsenal came unstuck in the return match at Highbury, losing 3-1 on the night. "George Graham wasn't impressed," explained Anders Limpar. "We played the type of helter-skelter football which he didn't like. Arsenal lost their self control that night." Arsenal finished fourth that season and were top scorers in the league, but Graham realised that if the Gunners were to be successful in Europe, they would need to be tighter in midfield and play more on the break than had been evident in 1991/92.
Those Arsenal fans who traipsed into a three-sided Highbury the following season (the North Bank was being redeveloped so the 'Mural End' was created) watched a team shorn of David Rocastle (sold to Leeds), often without Paul Davis and Limpar (consigned to the reserves) and with combative midfielders Ian Selley and David Hillier more the order of the day.
Up front, the pressure upon Ian Wright to score the required goals, as Alan Smith's goal tally dried up, was immense. Yet Wright invariably delivered (to the backdrop of, "And it's Ian Wright FC"). He netted two sensational strikes at home to Nottingham Forest that season in an FA Cup clash and ended up with 25 goals at the end of the campaign as the Gunners won both the Littlewoods and the FA Cup. Both finals were won against Sheffield Wednesday, and although neither game (nor the FA Cup Final replay) were classic encounters, Graham's men dug in and revealed their fighting spirit. Steve Morrow and Andy Linighan proved themselves to be unlikely heroes in the process.
The following campaign saw Arsenal conquer Europe and win the Cup Winners' Cup final against a far more technically-gifted Parma team containing the likes of Faustino Asprilla, Gianfranco Zola and Tomas Brolin. In front of over 20,000 ecstatic Arsenal fans in Copenhagen, singing "1-0 to the Arsenal," Smith's superb winner was enough to land the trophy, with Ian Wright suspended. It may have been one of the most memorable nights in Arsenal's history, but the final neatly encapsulated what Graham's team had become: doughty fighters who could tangle more skilful opponents up in a web of harrying and pressure football, and nick a winning goal.
That style may have been sufficient to grind out victories in two-legged European encounters, but a more attacking style (embodied by Eric Cantona and Andrei Kanchelskis at Old Trafford) was needed to win the Premier League. Graham's days were numbered, as whispers of financial impropriety began to circulate, and with his team mired in mid-table, he was dismissed in February 1995. With two league titles and four cups to his name, not to mention the signatures of players including Wright, Lee Dixon, Nigel Winterburn and Bould, Graham had mastered the art of moulding 'blue collar' players into winners.
But as Alan Smith recalled: "By 1995 I think George had said pretty much all he had to say to us." With Arsenal under the temporary control of Stewart Houston, they succumbed to Nayim's late goal for Real Zaragoza in Paris in the Cup Winners' Cup final. Everyone associated with Arsenal admitted that it was time for a new direction, and a new playing style. Salvation lay just around the corner...
- Just 25,558 turned up to see Arsenal beat Derby 3-0 on Boxing Day 1990, amid train strikes and storms. Those who attended saw a "David Seaman assist" as he hit the bar with a mammoth goal kick, and Alan Smith snapped up the rebound
- The Gunners scored six goals in a remarkable second-half blitz against Sheffield Wednesday, winning 7-1 after drawing 1-1 at half-time
- Arsenal's record appearance holder, David O'Leary, bowed out in style by winning the FA Cup at Wembley in 1993 on his final turn-out for the Club

text: Elena Vaitsekhovskaya's interview with Tamara Nikolaevna Moskvina: "In our country, we have more coaches than skaters" http://winter.sport-express.ru/figureskating/reviews/35535/ My conversation with Tamara Moskvina got an unexpected twist from the very beginning. I wanted to ask her a rather banal set of questions regarding the new programs of her pupils, Yuko Kavaguti and Alexander Smirnov, and the recent closed test skates in Sochi. But I haven't even had time to pick up a voice recorder, when Moskvina very casually said, "Unfortunately, there aren't many people around to whom I could turn to for an advice... " . EV: Who was that kind of person for you, Tamara? TNM: At one time, it was Mila Pakhomova, and no one actually knew about that. Elena Tchaikovskaya's group, including Pakhomova and Gorshkov, had always been very closed off. But it happened so that when Alexei Mishin and I were still competing, Pahomova and I often shared hotel rooms. Then I realized that she and I had very similar views on many things. And when I started to coach, I could call Mila at any moment and discuss anything with her. Programs, music, different ideas. And I've always liked the way Mila held herself. If she had any weakness, no one could ever tell. We, as Mishin said, "provincial finches", could be poorly dressed, Pakhomova always looked like a queen. And remember the look of supremacy she always went on the ice with! EV: Did you like Mila as a coach? TNM: I have not had a chance to watch her in work - after all, we lived in different cities. But judging by the results,when Mila coached Elena Batanova and Alexey Soloviev (two-time junior world champions in ice dancing. - EV), she achieved big success with that team. I remember how one night, during some event, when we, as usual, shared a room, Mila suddenly started crying and said: " Tamara, I'm going to die soon... " That's when I found out about her illness. We kept that very close emotional bond between us until her death. Recently, by the way, I found a very good psychological term in one book: the reference point. It's not just a person to whom you can trust completely in any situation, but also the one who gives you peace of mind and confidence by his mere presence. EV: You didn't have any other person like that in your life? TNM: Another one was Iris Baker, an English dance coach. I met her in 1962 in Geneva - she worked in the secretariat of the European Championships. Iris was older than me, but we somehow became friends. And it lasted for many years. EV: Do you know the feeling when around you, there are less and less people of the same TNM: Age? EV: Not only. Age indicates also a certain circle of interests, communications, attitudes, values. And I wanted to ask not so much about age, but about people who speak the same language. TNM: I communicate with many people who are much younger than me, and I can say that I really like that. Young people might also be interested in me - I can see how people listen to me, when there is an occasion for socializing. Age-related interests do not always help to get together often, which is another issue. EV:That's what I meant. TNM: In such cases, I say to myself: "Tamara, don't wait until someone approaches you. Go ask them yourself. Find topics that will be interesting to younger people. Engage them in conversation." For me, it is really interesting to know their opinions about my athletes, about my work. I cannot just hope that the audience will consist of the people of my generation only. So I should not only understand what the younger audience wants to see, but also give it to them. So that the majority of people who came to the event would end up rooting for my students, instead of their rivals. EV: Could you set the program to rap music? TNM: To be honest, I have this music that was written for me two or so years ago, and it's rap. EV: Who was it for? TNM: For Yuko and Sasha - for a gala number. There was never the right time for that music. Maybe I will have to give it to someone else, if we end up not using it. EV: It was quite a surprise for me, and many other people, when you teamed up with Oleg Vasiliev. It looked like you, and especially Oleg, judging by some of his interviews, were quite far from being able to start working together again. TNM: You know, I take calmly other people's interviews. Perhaps the person didn't have the full information or was misinformed, or maybe at some point in his life, it was hard for him to admit his mistakes and he subconsciously wanted to find the cause of his failure in someone else. Vasiliev and I had a great time working together when I was coaching him, then Oleg became my colleague, and we parted our ways. It is very likely, by the way, that at a certain stage of his coaching career, Oleg sincerely believed that it was me who didn't let him have a breakthrough. But for me, it was always more important what I know about myself, not what others think of me. I never did anything I could be ashamed of. EV: When did you start thinking about taking steps towards your former student? TNM: When Artur Dmitriev left St. Petersburg for Moscow. We worked together for a long time, and maybe Arthur was tired of the fact that I led him for so many years, as an athlete, and has continued to lead, in a way, when he became a coach. When I felt it, I even offered him to go to work at the Academy, where he would have his own ice and full independence. I did not want him to leave Peter. But in the end, he decided to leave. That's when I began thinking: who I can call to help me in my work ? Natasha Mishkutenok is in America, Lena Bechke is in America, Denis Petrov is in China, Anton Sikharulidze is in Moscow, Lena Berezhnaya and Oksana Kazakova both have little children. And anyway, after an athlete becomes an Olympic champions and has a fairly high earnings in all sorts of shows, it isn't easy to move on to coach's salary. Figuratively speaking, it is like falling off a mountain. As an avalanche. You were on top just a moment ago, and suddenly you are sitting on the ground, where you need to disassemble the stones to build something without having the slightest idea how to do it. Vasiliev came to St. Petersburg from Chicago from time to time. So I decided to talk to him. I, in general, try to talk with all of my athletes. Even when everyone, as you say, thought that there was an animosity between us, Oleg and I sometimes went for coffee together, talking about our daughters , discussing some other problems - up to a guinea pig that lived in Oleg's house. Especially since now we have absolutely nothing to fight over. And working together is better. Although I must say that there are more pair skating coaches than athletes in our country at the moment. For a year, there have been an announcement at the Yubileyny ice rink that the coaches Moskvina, Kazakova and Berezhnaya invite to join their pair skating group. One girl came. Single skating coaches also stopped giving away their athletes. Even when there is someone to give. EV: And do you keep looking? TNM: I have been, not anymore. I understand that when an athlete comes to me, he expects that I will be dealing with him, not my assistants. But I don't want to take responsibility for someone else's work anymore, to be honest. EV: It was decided to make the pre-season test skates completely closed. From your point of view, is this secrecy justified? TNM: No. Up to a certain time, everyone, of course, try to keep their work secret. But now it is important to get as much feed-back as possible - reviews, opinions , criticism. On the other hand, there are advantages of closed test skates. Not all the athletes are ready to skate two full programs in early September. Moreover, some try to avoid it. It is completely useless to show up in public when you're out of shape. EV: I know that Kavaguti/Smirnov's got mixed reviews in Sochi. Why did you choose "Katyusha"? TNM: First of all, I tried to imagine what other teams would do. I was thinking: Tatiana Volosozhar and Maxim Trankov will definitely choose something pathetic or a drama. Aliona Savchenko and Robin Szolkowy will likely prefer fast and modern style. The Chinese are lyrical with beautiful lines. Canadians have technique. What do we have to offer considering that Yuko and Sasha were only the sixth by the end of last season? Make a theatrical program? It's not that good for the short program: acting distracts from the elements. EV: Then tell us what is the highlight of the new short program. TNM: The music, which arranged in such a way that the familiar "Katyusha" is hardly recognizable background. This is important, because anyone, hearing familiar tune starts listening and looking closely. It is a tribute to the host country. And most importantly, this music is very comfortable for the athletes to perform all the difficult technical elements to. So that the judges see all the things they need to see. If you are interested in what this program is about ... EV: You have just articulated it quite brilliantly. The poetry is completely unnecessary, I think. TNM: I have, by the way, two backup variants. EV: When a coach talks about possible replacement , it does not contribute to the certainty of success, to be honest. TNM: Why? If you are going to travel from Moscow to St. Petersburg, do you really consider only one travel option? You always have to have a backup plan. EV: Why are you planning to include a quad throw in the free program? TNM: Being the sixth pair of the world half a year before the Olympic Games, you need to have a clear view of situation. What else can we offer if not the difficulty? By the way, to include the [quad] throw in the free program is not my wish, but my athletes'. If so, it is my task as a coach to prepare the necessary conditions. I think that we have managed to deal with this element. Both physically and technically. EV: Who were you watching more closely - your skaters or their competitors? TNM: I watched the others mostly at practices. I liked Volosozhar and Trankov. The most important thing that they have is security. EV: The fact that the spotlight has shifted to that team in the last two years, is it a plus or a minus for your athletes? TNM: Yuko and Sasha have no problems with that. If there are such problems, it can always be seen. And then you need to have a sensible view of situation: if my height is 148 centimeters, I'll never be able to take a two-meter height. And here we have a team that stands above most of the athletes in the world, and mine in particular, in their technical abilities. But this does not mean that we are not going to try to show our best at every competition, gaining maximum points wherever possible. The main thing is that we have hope. This is the thing that motivates people . EV: And if you hope does not come true? TNM: It can happen, too. The list of risks, as they say in business, is always present in sport. You shouldn't put on the blinders, seeing only one goal. Because it can happen that a truck, so to speak, comes from around a corner and you just do not have enough time to get out of its way. You need to thoroughly assess the situation and be prepared to sneak through the crack, if it suddenly opens. I know it very well , because not all of my students came through the open door. EV: What do you mean? TNM: Valova and Vasiliev sneaked into the same crack in 1983. One of Stanislav Zhuk's pairs suddenly fell ill just before European Championships, and my athletes were to replace them. I then gathered all my courage and went to the head of sports committee of the Department of winter sports and asked to send me as a tourist, so as not to leave them without a coach. Oleg and Lena took second place, and a month later they won the world championships. A similar situation occurred with Dmitriev in 1998, when he started to skate with Oksana Kazakova. They barely made it on the national team . EV: Returning to the Olympic season, is it possible for the four-time world champions Aliona Savchenko and Robin Szolkowy to reach another level, what do you think? TNM: I think it is. Even the fact that they intend to do a triple Axel throw that they tried last season, says that these athletes are more than serious. When a skater performs successfully element of this complexity, it provides, in addition to the points, greater self-confidence. Inner conviction that you have an additional trump card. This year, as far as I know, Aliona and Robin chose "The Nutcracker" for their free program - what else can I say? The charming music of the Russian composer. The audience is going to love that music. I myself had this idea. What stopped me, it was the fact that my students already skated to "The Nutcracker". In 1992. EV: When you coached Berezhnaya and Sikharulidze, Igor Bobrin worked with them as a choreographer. Petr Tsernyshev has been working with Kavaguti and Smirnov for the past two years. How does a coach finds "his" choreographer? TNM: Organizational issues always play a big role: whether athletes, coach and choreographer can find the time to work together or not. We had worked with Bobrin and Natasha Bestemyanova, they choreographed very interesting programs for Yuko and Sasha, but our schedules, unfortunately, did not agree this season: everyone always has their obligations. Program components are paid a lot of attention now. And this means a lot of dance moves. Tsernyshev is a dancer. Moreover, he worked as a dance coach for many years in America, teaching everyone, including the beginners. Although I think that choreographers need to be changed. EV: Well now is not that difficult to go to a choreographer in any country. TNM: You see what this is about... To go for a couple of days to a particular specialist is possible, but in this case, he will make a program based on what an athlete can do. That is, he would have to go down on the athlete's level. And I need to get my athletes up as high as possible. So that they not only get the program, but also learn something new. In this respect, Tsernyshev was the perfect choice for us. EV: Do you ever think what you will do after the Olympic Games in Sochi? TNM: I, as usual, have options. EV: Related to the sport? TNM: Not necessarily. There are plenty of activities I am interested in, but never had the time for. It is so much more prosaic at the rink. I've been through it so many times that I know exactly how much time it will take, how much energy it will require. EV: Are you afraid that you may not have enough energy? TNM: You know, I had a close relative who has led an active life teaching and died at 85. And it happened so that I set this age as some kind of a life limit. But just the other day I was at a concert dedicated to the 90th anniversary of our famous coach and scientist, an honorary citizen of St. Petersburg Mikhail Bobrov. He has phenomenal memory, he writes beautifully. I looked at him and said to myself, "Tamara, don't be a fool. Make a plan and live as you want!"

Price: $55.00

- Description
- Reviews
Yoga: The Art of Transformation, the world's first examination of yoga's visual history, explores the discipline's meanings and transformations over time; its goals of spiritual enlightenment, worldly power, and health and well-being; and the beauty and profundity of Indian art. The book's illustrations include sculptural masterpieces of historical and divine yogis, exquisite Mughal paintings of militant yogis and romantic heroes, Islamic divination texts, 15-foot scrolls depicting the chakras (energy centers of the body), and 19th-century photography.
Written by leading scholars from the disciplines of religion, sociology, anthropology, and art history, the book is characterized by interdisciplinary perspectives that make it an important resource for scholars; yet the text is eminently accessible to general audiences. In addition to seven major essays, the book includes 250- to 1,500-word catalog entries that illuminate the artworks' individual qualities by situating them, for the first time, within intersecting historical, artistic, and yogic networks. Hardcover, 328 pages, 250 illustrations; 12"l. x 10"w.

Henry Ketcham wrote his reverential - but never cloying - biography of Abraham Lincoln in 1901, long after the 16th president of the United States was assassinated and even longer since Ketcham was promoted to brigadier general in the Union Army. And yet the human subject of this audiobook feels immediately present, admirably resurrected by the love of a writer.
Actor Brian Troxell has an extensive resume in film, television, and voice work. In his performance of The Life of Abraham Lincoln he takes listeners on a colorful journey from the president's impoverished childhood on the western frontier through the Civil War. Troxell has a lot of ground to cover, but he does so with style and vigor, further enlivening material that is already intimate and accessible to listeners.
In his introduction to The Life of Abraham Lincoln, Henry Ketcham notes that there has been so much written about Lincoln that the legend has begun to obscure, if not to efface, the man. "In this biography the single purpose has been to present the living man with such distinctness of outline that the reader may have a sort of feeling of being acquainted with him."
Ketcham's clearly-written, unadorned account of Lincoln's life achieves its stated purpose, never removing its focus from the man who became the 16th President of the United States and led the nation through some of its most turbulent and difficult times.

"Good overview of Lincoln's life"
Good narration, well told overview of Lincoln's life. If you're looking to learn more about Lincoln, this is a good starting point to understand his life broadly, and from here you can decide what aspects of his life you want to study more.
"Pretty good"
Well written and the way he makes points are well done. I've read many books on the assassination of Lincoln and this book gets a few facts wrong.
"Excellent book"
Superb, efficient factual summary.
Highly recommend it for anyone who needs a factual introduction to his basic background.

They love what they do, and are doing amazing things marrying skating with the traditional dance world. They have a big Gala coming up honoring Richard Dwyer, and I wanted to help them promote their good works. Listen to how they survived over the years when other shows didn't, and how they manage to do so much with so little resources.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Views: 26
Where to begin in what regard? With reading or making? In terms of buying, hunt down some good distros (seeing as you're in the States, maybe someone else can point you in the right direction), or see if you can find some zines that you like via this site (check out the "New Issue Announcement Thread") in the forums.
In terms of making a zine, well, you sit down with paper, scissors, glue and a pen and get busy! Though if you're completely new to the scene and haven't yet read any zines then totally get yourself a bunch and use them to get inspired. All the smaller details for making zines you can probably find via the forums on here, or google, or pick up a copy of something like Stolen Sharpie for tips. Or if there's something particular you're stuck with, I'm sure people here can help out!
There's also groups on here, you can join the ones that interest you (there's a fashion zine group for example, even poetry and art zine groups), from there you might find more on what you're after.
Welcome btw! Hope that was of at least some help!
Hi Jayde.
My name is Parv and I am from the UK. I'm studying architecture here. Anyway, I'm doing an experiment in zines and free space. My zines are called scream. The name scream is made up of 6 zines: sublime zine, creative zine, romantic zine, expressionist zine, activist zine and moving zine. The idea behind these zines is that I send them to people interested in creativity. They are blank zines. Nothing inside, ready for you to channel your own ideas and artwork into and then you can pass them onto the next person should you wish. If you send the zine back to me, having photocopied it for yourself, I will be exhibiting the work in an exhibition in a gallery in Manchester. If you're interested then email me at email@example.com. It would be great to get people from another country involved in this! I guess thats part of the romanticism about zines also... you can engage with so many people from different places and see what they're about.
If anyone else reads this post then please email me if you're interested! Thanks so much and welcome to the zine scene Jayde.

IBM System Storage TS3500 Tape Library
In January of 2013, ARSC upgraded to a completely new storage system. The Sun StorageTek SL8500 was replaced by the IBM TS3500 tape library.
- 1,800 3592JC tape cartridges with a raw capacity of 7.2PB utilizing six IBM TS1140 tape drives
- 400 LTO-4 tape cartridges with a raw capacity of 320TB utilizing six IBM TS1050 tape drives
- Total tape slot count of over 2,600 tapes in a mix of LTO and 3592 media
The Arctic Region Supercomputing Center (ARSC) operates and maintains an IBM TS3500 storage system tape library for enterprise-scale, long-term data storage. Effectively, this system provides unlimited library space for information which has not been recently accessed. This data is stored on Tape cartridges with barcodes that are read by scanners, numbered, and labeled for quick access.
ARSC operates an automated tape cartridge system for storage of users' data. The Storage and Archive Management (SAM) software provides semi-transparent access to the data. SAM automatically copies all user files on the storage servers to tapes in the tape library. Once copies are made on tape, SAM maintains adequate free disk space by releasing less-recently-used data blocks from disk. If a file whose data blocks only reside on tape is opened, SAM automatically mounts the appropriate tape and restores the data to disk.
Access time to a file on a tape consists of the time taken to retrieve and load the tape cartridge into a tape drive (about 10 seconds) and the time required to locate the file on the tape (up to 120 seconds, depending upon where on the tape the file is located) for an average response time of about one minute.
This storage silo offers enhanced data accessibility through dual accessors that increase speed and provide failover protection, including dual maintenance bays available for non-disruptive accessor replacement; as well as the ability to attach multiple simultaneous heterogeneous servers, which consist of a mix of Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Oracle Solaris servers.
Information is always readily available to users as, what appears to be, a seamless extension of essentially unlimited disk space.

Hi, Suzie G. here
I am new to Duck Hunting .com .I started out in the Honey Hole :) with this note :
Wanted Older Freezer /Burned Meat (Duluth,Mn./Superior ,WI.area )
I am looking for meat that people are considering throwing away to
make room for fresher ,store bought or game meat . (cleaning out
their freezers /refrigs -older /freezer burned ) Not to mention any
game meat your family just didn't like the taste of :)
I am feeding 2 Golden Retrievers and a Newfoundland dog.My senior ,
rescued , Golden is extremely allergic to ALL grains. We are looking
for any meat except those with injected solutions (ex. some poultry
with added flavor inhansers or salt solutions ),no added spices (ex.
sausage ,hot dogs , balogna ), no smoked meat (ex. sausage , ham ,
bacon )
It does not need to be human grade meat and it does not matter how
old it is . My dogs especially like older game meat .(venison,
elk,bear,buffalo,moose,rabbit ,squirrel
beaver,duck,grouse,goose,quail,wild turkey,pheasant,any game
birds,any fish -whole /filet/heads ,any game heads -venison
heads/with or without antlers,duck heads etc. any game or store
bought organ meats -
ex.liver ,heart,kidney,lungs,esophagus,spleen,pancreas,tongue,cheek
meat,brains, ears, snouts,sweetbreads,lips,oxtails.I would like to
discuss with hunters the possibility of obtaining any "innards " not
stomach or intestines that they normally leave in the field.-ex.
venison heart,lungs,liver etc. Any culls from breeders of
Yes to beef -whole,ground,or parts,turkey (no solution
injections) ,lamb,goat,pork,any store bought or caught fish-except
smoked. yes to veal.You get the picture-They will eat almost
anything !
Please let us help you with your freezer/refrig cleaning needs.
Please pass this request on to family/friends/neighbors/and
especially hunters (in town or elsewhere )We will give them our phone
number/e-mail address for future reference. (hang it on your
freezer :) We will arrange for a pickup location.
Thankyou !!
Jim and Suzie G. and especially our allergic Golden -Delilah (Don't
forget us- Gus- Newf and our Golden puppy-Maggie )
I only re-posted this to tell you a bit about what type of hunting I do so far - and what kind of "kill" I bring home :)
I will be 55 in July. I grew up in a family that raised and showed Kerry Blue Terriors .We went to all of the big dog shows. I was the kennel boy-but only allowed to train the Kerries through Basic class because they were "confirmation " dogs and only allowed to show them when it "didn't count " I was in junior high. When I got older-married-4 kids (youngest 19 yr now ) I fell in love with Newfoundland dogs.The original water dog !! I have had Newfs since 1976 . (started out with Barbara Allen dogs ) My old man Newf -Gus - is 9 yrs old now. I love Newfs but they are HIGH MAINTAINANCE dogs. (LONG hair and up to 175 #'s ) I hate to have to admit it but grooming and bathing is a little rough on the old back and they do bring a lot of water into the boat :) (they are an ancester to the black lab don't ya know-that's where the lab gets it's beautiful big head )
I rescued Delilah (senior Golden-12 now and fell in LOVE with Field Goldens !!) I never thought I could be pulled away from Newfs but she stole my heart. Smaller (60 #) -beautiful red coat- hunting instincts you wouldn't believe-no wonder she was a breeder in a Denver puppy mill for 7 yrs - and a love for her rescuers that has NO bounds. And an easy keeper by comparison.
Because of her - I brought an 8 week old Topbrass Golden pup into my life last July. She is a year old now and WHAT a year it has been !! She's no couch potato that's for sure ! I have taken her through 2 puppy classes ,Basic obediance and we are now in Novice A Competitor class . I am a confirmed Field Golden Person now and will live with them for the rest of my life.
Maggie is the most wonderful dog I have ever lived with. She has every instinct a working Golden could be bred for . I have always believed (I learned this from Barbara Allen -working Newfs ) that dogs should be bred with the body type , spirit,and brains to do the work they were bred to do. This led me -also because of my Newfs -to throw myself into whole prey- raw feeding -as a way to try to alleviate many of the health problems Newfs ( ,labs, Goldens,etc.) have inherited from even O.F.A. certified parents. (hips,shoulders etc. ) I have known the heartache of having show-quality/breeding quality Newfs put down because of hip-displasia/O.C. D./ bloated/twisted stomachs for no apparent cause:( Hence large dog people looking at diet/environment as possible solutions when careful breeding and culling -didn't always seem to work. (the grand experiment -we don't know how it will ultimately turn out yet )
Needless to say I am hooked on Maggie's natural scenting/tracking ability(I love watching her air scent during our FIND IT games ) ,her maniac drive, and unbroken focus on the task at hand. I am loving obediance work with her. My only disappointment is the harsh winter weather here.It's hard to train when there is so much ice you can't stand up (my yard is a hill- of course ) the wind chills of minus 50F and a frozen big lake-when thawed it's 39 F (except for the top few inches :) . I live a few miles from Lake Superior. We're a HEARTY LOT! I was SOOO glad not to be potty training her in Nov. !!!
I came to this group looking for Older/Freezer burned meat (my form of hunting )- I now am a regular visitor of your forums (it's hard to pull myself away--especially hunting dogs and Mn. Duck and even Honey Hole :)) ! ) I now find myself wanting to look for a local retriever club in my area. You might have yourselves a convert- instead of waiting around for -usually guy hunters :) - to give me their "LEFT OVERS " I might just have to go out and rustle it up myself !! We have deer bow hunting here in town. (Duluth ) I spend a lot of time begging hunter friends not to field dress their game but to save it for my dogs. I have even -jokingly- offered to come with them and hold the bucket !! At the beginning of deer hunting season -I looked out my upstairs window -while typing and saw 3 large does running up our street past my parked car Oh to have a gun ! (., and had a black bear walking down my alley . ) This year was the first time I have been able to feed my dogs duck, pheasant ,quail ,and grouse. All from people cleaning out their freezers. My pup had elk,venison and buffalo smorgasboard (SP?-what kind of a MN am I ? :) for breakfast.
As you can tell- I am a fanatic about my dogs and their diet -I will get off my soap box now ! During the other portion of my life I have been an R.N. but am currently working as a Paraprofessional with severly handicapped special Ed. kids. I am hoping to train Maggie as a Therapy dog -in schools/hospitals and nursing homes -if I can ever wear her out ! Yea Right ! and possibly do some agility--if my 55 yr old body can hope to keep up with her. I will definately be getting another Top Brass-Jackie Merten's pup when my elderly canine family crosses over the Rainboe Bridge. (something I don't like to think about )
Hence THE PUP MAGGIE ! I sent my youngest off to college last June and brought her home . Who needs an empty nest
Should I publish this Bio ? I'll be quiet and listen/learn for awhile now..
Suzie G ,Gus My Hairy Boy (Newf ), Beautiful Red Delilah (rescued ,Elderly Golden ) and the ever active Top Brass Magnificent Maggie ("Mom ? When will YOU start bringing home the kill ? yourself ?" )

Scammer targets art lovers in Missouri and four other states
COLUMBIA, Mo. - A man claiming to be an arts and antiquities dealer is targeting Mid-Missourians and he's doing so by using a local museum as his front.
Jonathan Nathan Williams is not only asking residents for money, but also for their valuable art. ABC 17 News has learned he's possibly doing the same thing in four other states.
Williams' website, artsvintage.com, looks legit and to most other Mid-Missourians. He has a phone number, addresses and plenty of information available.
However, the executive director and curator of the Boone County Museum and Galleries said she has started investigating Williams after getting calls from residents claiming someone tried to scam them using the museum's name.
It didn't take long for Jenifer Flink to find the first clue she needed to know they were right -- Williams was using the museum's address on his site.
"Museums work so hard to safeguard their reputation and integrity in a community," said Flink.
But someone threatening that hard work caught the attention of the Boone County Museum and Galleries.
"He claims to be an art and antiquities dealer who operates out of the historical society," said Flink.
Flink was alarmed when she got the first call about someone asking for donations on behalf of the Boone County Historical Society.
"We are not conducting a fundraising campaign that would in anyway involve taking items from anyone's home," Flink said.
After a little investigation, Flink immediately alerted the Columbia Police Department, the Better Business Bureau and the Attorney General's office.
In the meantime, Williams was apparently still trying to scam Mid-Missourians.
"After I received the third phone call, I realized I wanted to look into what was happening here and what he was saying on his website a little more thoroughly," said Flink.
Digging into Williams' website more, she found a Salt Lake City address that turned out to be the Natural History Museum of Utah.
"I called them," said Flink. "So not only was he not affiliated in anyway, they were just as horrified as I was."
The same scenario played out for all of the museums listed on Williams' website. He claimed he consulted with the Amon Carter Museum in Fort Worth, Texas, the C.M. Russel Museum in Great Falls, Mont., and the Clarke Historical Museum in Eureka, Calif. All of those turned out to be lies.
"What this man is doing is calling people and inserting himself into their confidence by falsely lining themselves with an agency in the community such as ours," Flink explained.
ABC 17 News tried tracking down Williams using the number listed on his website. No one would answer the phone call and the line would go dead.
When we tried to verify the number on his website, it was gone.
Since our first contact with the Boone County Historical Society, artsvintage.com went from a professional-looking site to a deactivated site.
"The worst case scenario is he's seeking to buy things from them or have them donate into the collection in the museum and that he's taking someone's treasured family item for himself and just selling it for the money," said Flink.
Flink says although subtle, Williams' website and phone calls raised ref flags. She also noted Williams only used PayPal as a payment option.
Flink pointed out Williams contradicts himself and she doesn't believe it would take someone in the art world to figure it out.
"If you look at all the museums he references, none of them focus on antiquities," said Flink.
Flink says the Boone County Historical Museum focuses solely on Missouri history through the eyes of artists in Boone County.
And as for the phone calls, she said staff would never cold call the community asking for money or antiquities. She added that legitimate society campaign would be well-advertised.
When dealing with the arts, Flink says she understands how easy it can be for someone to pretend to be from a trusted agency, so in order to figure out the legit from the fake, ask the caller how you can get back in touch with them and verify the caller's claims.
The Missouri Attorney General's office told ABC 17 News that they are investigating Jonathan Williams and currently have one complaint against him.

I'm from Southern Louisiana. 2 of my friends and I are thinking about making a trip to ND this year for about a week to duck hunt. My mom grew up in Minot but hasn't gone back in quite sometime. We would probably stay somewhere there with distant family. Is there any good hunting anywhere around there? We hunt a lot of marsh land here in Louisiana. I'm just wondering if anyone has any tips. I've looked at the PLOTS system and am doing as much research as I can. It seems like you just find public land and go hunt it but that just sounds too easy being from here. Are the areas really densed down with hunters? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Geaux Tigers!

New Guides Make Texas State Park Visit a Breeze
AUSTIN, Texas — Texans still looking to take a summer trek amid a sputtering economy without breaking the bank need look no further than a nearby Texas state park for an affordable and enjoyable vacation destination. To help you plan and make the most of a visit to many of the state's natural and cultural gems, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department offers two new, free publications.
The 112-page, sixth edition of the Texas State Park Guide puts at your fingertips all you need to know to discover why the more than 90 state parks are "getting better all the time." And, once visitors arrive at their chosen park, they can pick up a Park Visitor Welcome Kit tailored to the Texas tourism region in which the park is located.
The Park Welcome Kit is available at 93 state parks include not only a fold-out Texas state park map with the featured area and the region's parks highlighted and detailed in brief vignettes, but also a wildlife and plant guide, safety tips, ideas for children's activities, an outdoor gear guide, eco-friendly ideas and a regional calendar of events. In addition, each "Go Guide" gives park rangers' recommendations on which parks in the region feature the best scenery, camping, biking, hiking, fishing and other activities, and provides a suggested road trip to see the area's notable attractions.
The digest-size Texas State Park Guide provides a broad overview of the state park system and a centerfold map showing all park locations. Readers can learn about the millions of dollars in state park improvements made possible by increased state funding and bond issues. Today's park visitors will find in many instances upgraded park facilities, reopened campgrounds and hiking trails, improved maintenance, more interpretive programs and better customer service.
"We are creating a world-class park system that will generate tourism dollars and help Texans reconnect with nature," says Walt Dabney, state parks division director.
As in past state park guides, this year's edition features dozens of parks and historic sites within an hour's drive of Texas' major metro areas, as well as snapshots of "far-flung" parks, such as Palo Duro Canyon and Big Bend Ranch, worth the going the extra mile to visit.
The guide also directs readers to the wealth of state park information available on the TPWD Web site. Visit the State Parks & Destinations section of the Web site to access an interactive state parks map, a drop-down list of individual sites and facilities, downloadable park maps and information. There also is a link there to make camping reservations online. You can even "Shop the Outdoors" online for conservation license plates, wildlife posters and stamps, maps and other featured products.
The park guides are available at any Texas state park, state natural area or historic site, as well as TPWD law enforcement offices, Sea Center Texas, Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center, and most Texas Department of Transportation travel information centers, convention and visitors bureaus and chambers of commerce throughout Texas. You also can print selected sections of the guide from the TPWD Web site. The state park guide also is available online in Spanish.
Both the state park guide and welcome kits are printed on recyclable paper and were produced at no cost to the state. Funds to underwrite the publishing of the Texas State Park Guide were provided by Toyota, with additional support from advertisers.Photo Editors: A J-peg file of the color cover is available online for media use: (http://tpwd.texas.gov/newsmedia/news_images/

Home > News & Events > Events Calendar > Muslim Youth and The Post-9/11 World
FIRST Session : America Caught Off-Guard: the unleashing of an "Us and Them" narrative and the creation of "Muslim Engagement" 4pm in L166 One fourth of our planet is Muslim. 1.6 billion people. 62 percent of Muslims are under the age of 30yrs. At no other time in modern history has the convergence of national security, pop culture, media and demographics focused upon a religion -- making this generation of Muslim youth experience their lives through the prism of an "us and them" narrative. Every day since September 12, 2001 Muslims all over the planet have seen the word "Islam" or "Muslim" on the front pages of papers online and offline. How has this impacted them? How do they see themselves and how do they perceive others perceive them? Muslims from Argentina to Zanzibar are experiencing an identity crisis. How have governments and society understood these youth and why does it matter? This study group will explore and address the issues confronting Muslim youth through many lenses. We will learn how words of a President (both George W. Bush and Barack Obama), a terrorist, a Superhero, a hit TV show and a pastor can change the trajectory of a young person's identity, politics and faith. We will analyze the "us and them" narrative of Al Qaeda and the way the US government chose to respond to the "war of ideas" through combatting violent extremism (CVE) programs and what is still left to do. As members of this generation -- you will have a front row seat in the examination of your generation that is Muslim whether living as a minority or as a majority.
