June is PRIDE month and we're celebrating by bringing you an episode about efforts to bring LGBTQ+ history to light. As one guest, historian William Mann writes, “Throughout its history, Connecticut's LGBTQ population has moved from leading hidden, solitary lives to claiming visible, powerful, valuable, and contributing places in society.” In this episode, we talk about what historians have found in Connecticut's Colonial records, some surprising connections to famous individuals and landmarks and at the end of the episode, there's a recommendation for three places to visit to celebrate LGBTQ+ history. In order to prepare for this episode, two digital resources created by our guests were used. Both of these are available on the web and the links are below. The first is the Historic Timeline of Connecticut's LGBTQ Community online exhibition directed by William Mann for the Connecticut Museum of Culture and History. Mann is an author and historian whose books include Kate: The Woman Who Was Hepburn, named a Notable Book of the Year by the New York Times; The Wars of the Roosevelts: The Ruthless Rise of America's Greatest Political Family; Behind the Screen: How Gays and Lesbians Shaped Hollywood; and Tinseltown: Murder, Morphine and Madness at the Dawn of Hollywood. He is an Assistant Professor of History at Central Connecticut State University, where he teaches LGBTQ History. See the timeline here: https://www.connecticutmuseum.org/lgbtqtimeline/ Mann is available for lectures and book talks. He can be reached at williammannauthor@gmail.com The second digital resource is a recorded lecture, Intemperate Habits: LGBTQ History from a Connecticut Perspective, a talk by Dr. Susan Ferentinos . She is an advisor to an inspiring new project, the Ridgefield LGBTQ Oral History Project. The Ridgefield Oral History project is a partnership between the Ridgefield Historical Society and Ridgefield Pride that will train high school students to conduct oral interviews with members of Ridgefield's gay community. Ferentinos is a public history researcher, writer, and consultant helping cultural organizations share untold stories about women and LGBTQ people. She is advising the Ridgefield LGBTQ Oral History Project and has recently worked with the Palmer-Warner House in East Haddam, Connecticut, and the Eleanor Roosevelt National Historic Site in Hyde Park, New York.

Craig Andrews joins us to chat about his amazing Cancer story, getting throat cancer, going through chemo and then finding out about Black Salve. He then used this against his doctors orders to heal his skin cancer. We chat about his travels around the world, the FDA - and the Australian equivalent, the fasting and sugar test to find out about his cancer, how Black Salve (Bloodroot) works, stimulating the immune system and balancing hormones. This natural and ancient healing method has been used through many ages and is completely demonized now of course, by the Cancer and Medical industries. See his video evidence of how it works. And we show some of the pictures during the video. In the second half we get into the astonished Senator that took his info up the chain and got shut down, the protocols, John Campbell's YouTube as a resource, his daughter and her Covid Jab injury and healing, how he told the Japanese doctors to asperate the needle prior to injection. Guess the only country that is doing this? Then we chat about Borax at the end, the potential benefits of this - another natural and inexpensive potential cure if taken correctly. We talk about the dosages and also getting from Japan to Australia during Covid Vaccine mandates, more Covid stuff re Ed Dowd's work and the organization he works with to help prosecuted whistleblowers...

With a new self-produced record on the horizon, Kris and the SouthEnd Mistakes continue to captivate audiences with their high-energy performances and soul-stirring ballads, promising an unforgettable musical journey where every note strikes a chord and every lyric speaks to the heart.
Today's poem is Bloodroot by Mary-Alice Daniel. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual.In this episode, Major writes… “Bluegrass conjures up the past in ways that feel both celebratory and painful. They call it mountain music, and some believe the creeks, rivers, valleys, and woods carry a hurt that one hears in all that fiddling, a sentimental history of Appalachia, but also a palpable history of poverty, subjugation, bondage, and musical ingenuity. That haunting, for me, is embedded in the folklore and spirit of the South, which I am just beginning to feel in my body.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

Today's episode is a special treat. We are discussing food, feminism, values, and love with two amazing women. I'm joined by the founders of Bloodroot, “A feminist restaurant and bookstore with a seasonal vegetarian menu.” Bloodroot is a unique space that celebrates diversity in feminist thought, food, and cultures from all over the world. It's been called an “indispensable gathering spot for progressive women.” I was privileged to enjoy lunch there recently, and I am thrilled to share Bloodroot with you today. Selma Miriam and Noel Furie are the founders of Bloodroot, which has been serving its customers in Bridgeport, CT, for over 40 years. Selma and Noel are two of the original members of the lesbian collective which began in 1977 and has grown to include women from all over the world. It's in a beautiful waterfront location that has become a sanctuary for feminist thought and radical political discourse over the years. Their restaurant is known for its vegetarian food that incorporates unique dishes and flavors from all parts of the world. Selma and Noel are very much pillars of the feminist movement, and their series of essays are featured in the book, Our Daily Lives Have to Be a Satisfaction in Themselves: 40 Years of Bloodroot. Show Highlights: Selma and Noel share highlights in their journey and the beginnings of Bloodroot How and why the early feminine movement rejected all male and female stereotypes How Bloodroot became a place for “angry feminists” to find out who they were and exist outside the patriarchy How they were very intentional in creating their space, even down to logistical details in the day-to-day running of a restaurant Why Selma and Noel are committed to showcasing foods from around the world as a way of getting to know each other and different cultures Why diversity is important under the feminist umbrella to respect all beliefs and cultures Why Selma and Noel are happy to be “living their values” and working hard in connection to the earth How our culture misinterprets sex and love–as opposed to the meaning of real love What Selma and Noel think about today's feminist movement and why they feel hopeful for the women of today Thoughts and advice from Selma and Noel about living in your purpose How creativity and expression are manifested through every endeavor of Selma and Noel Hear Selma and Noel answer rapid-fire questions about helpful advice, grounding habits, favorite hot beverage, last meal on earth, morning routine, inspiring people, what they are reading/recommending, and what's bringing them joy right now.

The Friday Newsletter | Daily Gardener Community Historical Events 1802 Birth of Dorothea Lynde Dix, Boston activist, writer, and schoolteacher. As a young woman, she visited England and met the philanthropist and mental-health reformer Samuel Tuke, the director of the York Retreat. There, the patients tended the flower and vegetable gardens surrounding the buildings. Samual called his methods "moral treatment," His work inspired Dorothea to pursue new ways of treating mental illness back home in America. Dorothea championed the causes of the marginalized, incredibly the mentally ill. She successfully lobbied for the creation of mental asylums. Despite today's negative connotations, the word asylum was initially intended to be a place of safety and refuge. Dorothea's asylums were a complete departure from the punitive madhouses that had come before. Today, the Dorothea Dix Park in Raleigh stands on the site of North Carolina's first mental health facility, Dorothea Dix Hospital, which existed for 160 years. Before that, the land was part of the Spring Hill Plantation, which was worked by hundreds of enslaved people for 150 years. Dorothea Dix Park is known for daffodils in spring and a field of sunflowers at the end of July. Dorothea Dix often included flower petals in letters to her friends. In 1829, she wrote a book of Floriography ("FLOOR-EE-ah-grah-FEE") or the language of flowers called The Garland of Flora. Dorothea wrote, The rose is the flower and handmaiden of love – the lily, her fair associate, is the emblem of beauty and purity. 1928 Birth of Maya Angelou (books by this author), American poet, memoirist, and civil rights activist. Maya once wrote, On late evenings when quiet inhabits my garden when grass sleeps and streets are only paths for silent mist I seem to remember Smiling. 1929 Birth of James A. Duke (books about this person), American botanist and writer. He's remembered for his Handbook of Medicinal Herbs and the best-selling book The Green Pharmacy (1997). He developed Dr. Duke's Phytochemical and Ethnobotanical Databases at the USDA. James once quipped regarding dandelions: If you can't beat them, eat them. 1944 On this day, English and American bombs hit the Botanical Garden in Bucharest. The garden's herbarium lost 500,000 sheets of specimens - roughly two-thirds of their collection. The origins of the garden date back to 1874. The garden found a champion in a 28-year-old Romanian botanist and naturalist named Dimitrie Brandza. Today the garden is named in his honor. Dimitri came to Bucharest to be a professor at the Department of Natural Science at the University of Bucharest. He created the botany department at the Natural Science Museum, only to see his entire plant collection destroyed by a fire two years later in 1884. But the fire ignited a new passion for Dimitri, which was the creation of the botanical garden, which opened in 1891. The garden's 42 acres are home to a museum, a greenhouse, formal gardens, wild spaces, lakes, ponds, and research buildings. The garden is a living part of the biology department at the University of Bucharest. Grow That Garden Library™ Book Recommendation The Graphic Garden by Keith Williams This very, very green-covered book came out in May of 2020, and it's the first monograph from landscape architect Keith Williams. This book features all of Keith's projects to date. Now Keith is one of the country's leading landscape architects. Keith is a partner, along with Mario Nievera, in their design firm called Nievera Williams Design, a genuinely groundbreaking landscape architecture firm Is based in South Florida. Together, Mario and Keith have been designing fantastic outdoor spaces for over two decades. One of the wonderful things about this particular book is that Keith shares with us the transformations and pictures of his gardens, showcasing his work process from the beginning of the project all the way through to the end. In this way, you can see how he looks at spaces and incorporates different elements into these monumental design projects. And there's a reason he calls it the Graphic Garden, and that's because it's so visual. Keith is very generously sharing everything— all the pictures, all of the drawings, and the details regarding his approach to designing gardens. So if you are a garden designer, this book is a must because you will learn from a true expert in garden design. Now I have to say that when I first got this book, I was so blown away. It was way more than I anticipated. The level of detail is fantastic. You will learn about layering in gardens and how each layer contributes to the garden's overall design. And the other thing that I want to mention quickly is that I shared a great video of Keith and his partner, Mario, in a video with Steele Marcoux of Veranda, and they're talking about garden design, their unique perspectives, and their approach to it, which is just so fascinating. I learned a ton of little tips and views on garden design just from watching that particular video. So that's in the Facebook group for the show. But this book is a little gem — and since it's new and there weren't that many of them published — it is an investment, but it is so worth it. This book is 216 pages of the best of Keith Williams and his work in gardens. You can get a copy of The Graphic Garden by Keith Williams and support the show using the Amazon link in today's show notes for around $70. Botanic Spark 1938 On this day, the Canadian Naturalist Charles Joseph Sauriol, wrote in his diary: For a few minutes this morning I fumbled around my Wild Flower garden... Little points which will soon be Bloodroots. Cautious little down covered stems and buds that will later become Hepaticas. Narrow leaves the forerunners of spring beauty. Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener And remember: For a happy, healthy life, garden every day.
The Plant of the Week is Bloodroot, or Sanguinaria canadensis. I chat with podcaster (GardenDC) and magazine editor (Washington Gardener Magazine) about the new book she has co-authored with Teri Speight called 'The Urban Garden'. There is follow up information on last week's Plant of the Week, the Virginia Blue Bell, and I talk about how I will, in theory, if it warms up, prune my Camellias this week. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/intothegarden/support

This hour on Where We Live, we look into strategies that build resilience in local bookstores and discuss pandemic book launches. Long-time indie bookshops continue to stay afloat and even thrive despite the ongoing pandemic. Amazon controls more than half of the market for print books and at least three-quarters of publishers' ebook sales. We also talk to booksellers about trends, including eliminating or reducing inventory-holding costs by selling on Bookstore.org –the Amazon for indies. The American Booksellers Association (ABA) lists the top five trends for indie bookstores in 2022. According to the ABA, nationally, 250 indie bookstores opened, and 98 closed in 2020 and 2021. Here is a list of Connecticut's indie bookstores: Barrett Bookstore, Darien (since 1939) Hickory Stick Bookshop, Washington Depot (since 1951) Breakwater Books, Guilford (since 1972) Atticus Books, Middletown (since 1975) Bloodroot, Bridgeport (since 1977) Books on the Common, Ridgefield (since 1984) RJ Julia, Madison, (since 1990) Bank Square Books, Mystic (since 1998) Book Trader Cafe, New Haven (since 1998) Elm Street Books, New Canaan, (since 2003) A New Page, Middletown (since 2003) Burgundy Books, Old Saybrook (since 2005) New bookstore openings in Connecticut include: Title IX: A Bookstore, a pop-up bookshop in New London The Key Bookstore's brick-and-mortar bookshop in Hartford Athena Books in Old Greenwich Pink Wave Books & Cafe (online) Wordsmith Bookshop, scheduled to open in Simsbury in May Reader's Block, opened in Stratford Book Club on the Go (online, pop-ups, book delivery) New York's Shakespeare & Co., expected to open its first Connecticut bookshop in Norwalk. Also, plans are underway to launch Next Chapter Books and More, an ELITE (Educating Learners In Transition Environment) Program's student-run bookstore and coffee shop in Trumbull. Several of the new bookshops sell to under-represented communities, and all are focussed on building a local third space. We discuss the ‘doing well by doing good' indie business model. Will it endure? We also look into store closures and fundraisers to keep indies open. That Book Store in Wethersfield and Elliot's Bookstore in Northford are among those that shut down, while fundraisers are underway to reopen New Haven's Never Ending Books, and to keep Bennett's Books in Deep River open.

Rebecca talked with returning guest, David Dacre who started Nature Reigns with his parents Maureen and Gordon. He now runs the business alongside his wife Karolina and their 3 children. Nature Reigns products are nutraceuticals, dermaceuticals, and quantum nano supplements. David has been a herbalist for over 10 years and imparts healing and therapeutic frequencies into all of the Nature Reigns formulations. The conversation shined on a fascinating new product, Nano Gravion, a breakthrough in the support of healthy cell function. Abnormal cell size can lead to cancer and various other ailments that can lead to degenerative diseases. David explained in great detail the importance of a healthy immune system. He not only shared how Nano Gravion works, but how having a clean diet and a positive mental outlook specifically protects the body's cells. A 2016 study and an earlier 2012 study showed that Graviola (you can find the links on Nature Reigns website) may have some positive benefits against cancer. Each of the ingredients in Nano Gravion plays an important role in healthy cell function. The ingredients are Graviola, Bloodroot, Camu camu, AhiFlower extract, Sangre De Grado, and Kakadu. Nature Reigns is the product of a lifelong desire to help people lead a healthier life, physically, mentally, and spiritually.

In this episode, Dr. Jenny O'Connor talks to the award-winning poet Annemarie Ni Churreáin, who gave an online seminar this semester at WIT on the way in which literature can develop a critical consciousness in students. This event was organised by English lecturer Dr Christa de Brún, who joins Jenny to chat about using one of Annemarie's poems to challenge and stimulate students' thinking. Annemarie has had her poetry published in the Poetry Ireland Review, The Stinging Fly and her first collection, Bloodroot, was shortlisted for highly prestigious awards in Ireland and the U.S. She is a member of the Writers in Prisons Panel co-funded by the Arts Council and the Department of Justice and was also the artist in residence at the Centre Culturel Irlandais Paris. Her new collection, The Poison Glen, is out now. Note: The Critical Thinking through Literature event, featuring Annemarie Ni Churreáin, was funded by the National Forum for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education.
We're keeping the Halloween spirit going with the Vampire vs. Werewolf packed "Underworld." This movie definitely has a vibe. Lots of production value, over the top action sequences, blue tint, and slow motion. It was a product of the early 2000s action movie formula and we are so appreciative. We pair it with a Pinot Noir from Bloodroot. Metacritic Score: 42/100Movie Sync Notes: We watched "Underworld" on Netflix. We start "Underworld" 4:38 into the pod and push play on part two 1:07:42 into the pod.

TRANSCRIPT OF AUDIO From the Cumberland Gap to the Atlantic Ocean, this is Virginia Water Radio for the week of April 19, 2021. This revised episode from May 2014 is part of a series this year of spring-related episodes. MUSIC – ~12 sec – instrumental This week, we feature a Virginia musical group’s version of a traditional Finnish waltz tune, named for a plant community that, like good music, depends on the right timing. Have a listen for about 35 more seconds. MUSIC – ~36 sec – instrumental You’ve been listening to part of “Flowers of the Forest,” by No Strings Attached, on their 2003 album, “Old Friend’s Waltz,” from Enessay Music. Just as in a well-done waltz, timing is crucial for low-growing, spring-blooming forest plants. Such plants live under trees whose leaf canopy will close by late spring, blocking much of the sunlight and rainfall from reaching the forest floor. As a result, many non-woody forest plants are adapted to take advantage of early spring’s interaction of warming soil and air temperature, available moisture, increasing light, and the activity of emerging insect pollinators to reproduce and to store enough energy underground to survive the coming year. Bloodroot, Spring Beauty, Trillium, and many other Virginia woodland plants follow this strategy: show up early, use colorful flowers to show off for foraging insects, and then produce fruits and seeds before the summer’s shade. Thanks for No Strings Attached for permission to use this week’s music, and we close with about 25 more seconds of “Flowers of the Forest.”MUSIC – ~27 sec – instrumental SHIP’S BELL Virginia Water Radio is produced by the Virginia Water Resources Research Center, part of Virginia Tech’s College of Natural Resources and Environment. For more Virginia water sounds, music, or information, visit us online at virginiawaterradio.org, or call the Water Center at (540) 231-5624. Thanks to Ben Cosgrove for his version of “Shenandoah” to open and close the show. In Blacksburg, I’m Alan Raflo, thanking you for listening, and wishing you health, wisdom, and good water.

Chanelle believes that intention, ritual, and using low-doses of plant and spirit medicine offer some of the greatest impacts to our healing. Her love and study of mysticism play a large role in her work, and she weaves her divinatory practices with tarot, pendulum, and astrology to deepen her offerings. It is in the spirit of the seasons and the lunar months that Chanelle approaches her healing work: that all things wax & wane, that everything has a cycle, a pattern; that health & well-being are not stagnant but in fact change as we do, from month to month: moon by moon. When Chanelle is not in the apothecary, you will find her making improvised & atmospheric sound-collage music under the name of allesandre, playing in her gardens, submerged in the water, or writing poems.

Chanelle believes that intention, ritual, and using low-doses of plant and spirit medicine offer some of the greatest impacts to our healing. Her love and study of mysticism play a large role in her work, and she weaves her divinatory practices with tarot, pendulum, and astrology to deepen her offerings. It is in the spirit of the seasons and the lunar months that Chanelle approaches her healing work: that all things wax & wane, that everything has a cycle, a pattern; that health & well-being are not stagnant but in fact change as we do, from month to month: moon by moon. When Chanelle is not in the apothecary, you will find her making improvised & atmospheric sound-collage music under the name of allesandre, playing in her gardens, submerged in the water, or writing poems.

With spring in the air (at least some days), we thought we’d discuss a couple of interesting early spring flowers that you might be able to spot on a walk or maybe even while doing some early season yard work right in your own backyard. Join us as we discuss Skunk Cabbage, Yellow Trout Lily, Bloodroot, and Coltsfoot.

Today we celebrate the birthday of a man who appreciated simplicity and knew that we would, too. We'll also learn about the Indiana State Flower - it’s not a native - but it sure is beautiful. We hear some words from a 1997 Garden Chore list. We Grow That Garden Library™ with a beautiful book that takes us on a tour of more than seventy English gardens and then shares the elements that make the English garden style so beloved. And then, we’ll wrap things up with an old article that asked Virginians to plant more of the State Flower: the dogwood, and we’ll review some little-known Dogwood facts that will make you think about this genus a little differently...

Important Events February 24, 1955 Today is the birthday of the founder of Apple, Steve Jobs. A lover of simplicity and elegance, Steve once said that, “The most sublime thing I’ve ever seen are the gardens around Kyoto.” To Steve, the ultimate Kyoto garden was the Saiho-ji ("Sy-ho-jee") - and most people would agree with him. The dream-like Saiho-ji garden was created by a Zen priest, poet, calligrapher, and gardener named Muso Soseki ("MOO-so SO-sec-key") in the 14th century during the Kamakura ("Comma-COOR-rah") Period. The Saiho-ji Temple is affectionately called koke-dera or the Moss Temple - a reference to the over 120 moss species found in the garden. Steve Jobs wasn’t the only celebrity to find zen at Saiho-ji - David Bowie was also a huge fan. And when it comes to design, there’s a Steve Jobs quote that garden designers should pay attention to, and it goes like this: “Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But... if you dig deeper, it's really how it works.” And here’s a little fun fact for gardeners: When Steve needed his garden designed at his Tudor-style home on Waverley Street in Palo Alto, he selected the great English garden designer Penelope Hobhouse to install a traditional English cottage garden - a garden she could have, no doubt, designed in her sleep. Nonplussed by the request, Penelope’s son implored her to make room for the job. And when Penelope first met Steve, he made a unique first impression by rolling into the restaurant where they had agreed to meet on rollerblades. Although Penelope designed Steve’s garden, she never actually saw it. Yet she did write about the project in an article for Hortus - it was called, "Malus californica: or, A New Garden for Mr. J." February 24, 2001 On this day, The Daily Journal out of Franklin, Indiana, shared an article called, Selection of State Flower Deserves Much Thought by "Bayou" Bill Scifres ("Sy-fers"). The article discusses the desire to change the State Flower of Indiana. “Well, we are at it again. Again we are embroiled in the state flower hassle, and rank-and-file legislators are telling us they have more important things to do than uproot the Peony as the state flower. Changing the state flower from the Peony to Fire Pink would be as simple as adopting either Senate Bill 57 or House Bill 2053, or both, to get the matter to the desk of the governor. But wait a minute. Is it really that simple? That cut-and-dried? Is this what we really want? Is the Fire Pink Hoosierland's best flora representative? Not native. That's the big rub proponents of the Fire Pink have with the peony. Foreigner. And they are right. Let's face it. We all are foreigners. Is it worse for a wildflower to have come from someplace else than it is for men? The thing that most concerns me is the state flower hassle revolves around the importance of nativeness. The real criteria should be the P&Ps of the issue, pulchritude, and proximity. Certainly, our state flower should be a raging beauty, but even more important, it should be accessible, very common, and be seen by many people, including non-Hoosiers who are just visiting. Fire Pink certainly is beautiful, but not so beautiful as the Cardinal Flower (also native to the state). And neither Fire Pink nor Cardinal Flower are even remotely as common as are several of the other candidates, especially the native spring beauty. Other Indiana Academy of Science candidates were White Nodding Trillium, Blue Phlox, Bluebell, Butterfly Milkweed, Bloodroot (a spectacularly beautiful flower, but not widely seen), Aster, Wood Poppy, Shooting Star, Wild Columbine, and Yellow Trout Lily.” Well, this effort was unsuccessful because today, the Peony remains the State Flower of Indiana. And there are many fun facts about this beautiful plant. In addition to being the Indiana State Flower, Peonies are the flower for China where the peony is called the sho-yu, which translates to “most beautiful.” When Marco Polo first spied the Peony, he wrote that the large blooms looked like "Roses as big as cabbages." As a symbol of wealth and a happy marriage, it’s fitting that the Peony is the 12th wedding anniversary flower. It’s also worth noting that a single peony plant could provide a century’s worth of flowers. Impressively, peonies can live to be 100 years old. If you receive a bouquet of Peonies, make sure to keep the vase filled with fresh water. Peonies are thirsty cut flowers. As for Peony plants, make sure to plant them high and have plenty of patience - Peonies can be slow to get growing. If you wondered why grandma had you plant your banana peels under the Peony bushes, it’s because Peonies love potassium. Potassium helps Peonies stay healthy and develop stronger stems. And if you want to help your Peony store up more energy for the following year, you can cut off the seed pods after your peony is finished flowering. Now, medicinally, Peonies were thought to help with pain, and they were used to treat everything from headaches to childbirth. And the childbirth connection to the Peony has roots in Greek mythology. The story goes like this: Asclepius was the god of healing and medicine, and he had a student named Paeon who discovered a root that could alleviate labor pain. This discovery brought Paeon notoriety, and Asclepius could not hide his jealousy, and he grew vengeful. Sensing trouble, Zeus stepped in and turned Paeon into a flower - the peony - and thereby saved his life. And to this day, Paeon, through the peony, helps ease the pain of childbirth. Unearthed Words Visit a greenhouse in a nearby botanic garden for an early spring. Go to your local bookstore to see the new spring gardening books. Survey your tools, prepare them for their new season, and replace any that no longer do their job. While your plants are still dormant, prune summer-blooming shrubs, fruit trees, grapevines, and berry bushes. — The Gardener’s Almanac, 1997, February Chores Grow That Garden Library English Gardens by Kathryn Bradley-Hole This book came out in 2019, and the subtitle is From the Archives of Country Life Magazine. In this instant classic, Kathryn shares her masterpiece that revels in the glories of English gardening. The publisher said this of Kathyrn’s book, “An unprecedented in-depth look at the English garden by one of Britain's foremost garden writers and authorities… Kathryn Bradley-Hole--the longtime garden columnist for Country Life--takes a fresh look at more than seventy gardens from across England and distills the essence of what makes the English garden style so sought after. Seasonal photographs capture the gardens--some grand, some personal, some celebrated, some rarely photographed--at their finest moments, accompanied by sparkling, insightful text. Featuring photographs from the unparalleled archives of Country Life, the full story of the English garden is here, from medieval monastery gardens to the Victorians and the Arts and Crafts movement to the twenty-first century.” And the Wall Street Journal review of this book said, “At a time when the very idea of travel is inconceivable, what a gift to be taken on an armchair tour of the great English gardens.” This book is 492 pages of the over seventy spectacular English gardens by one of the best garden writers on the planet. You can get a copy of English Gardens by Kathryn Bradley-Hole and support the show using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for around $44 Today’s Botanic Spark Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart February 24, 1957 On this day, The Times-Dispatch out of Richmond, Virginia, ran a piece by Pat Perkinson that called on all gardeners to plant the Dogwood (Cornus florida) during the Virginia State Flower Anniversary. “Aside from their significance as the state flower of Virginia, Dogwood trees also are symbolically remindful of the colonists who first found them growing so prolifically here in the 17th century. Not only did they enjoy the bushy trees, but they also put the bark to medicinal use... combatting the effects of malaria. To get an idea of the conditions preferred by Dogwood, we have only to observe the situations in which they grow in nature. As you drive along the highways you will notice that Dogwood flourish in the shade of the taller trees of the forest. Perhaps you would like to situate young trees a short distance from the house where they will be partly shaded and where they may be enjoyed from the windows.” And here are some fun Dogwood facts: In addition to being Virginia’s State Flower, the dogwood is the state tree of Virginia, Missouri, and North Carolina. Native Americans used the Dogwood as a phenological guide, and they planted their corn crop when the Dogwood bloomed. Both the roots and the bark of the Dogwood tree have been used to treat malaria. In Floriography ("FLOOR-EE-ah-grah-FEE") or the language of flowers, Dogwood flowers are a symbol of rebirth. Dogwood shrubs and trees are in the Cornus genus, and Cornus comes from the Latin Cornu, for horn, which references the dogwood being a hardwood tree. Many old botanical reference guides say that the tree used to be called the dagwood - as in dagger - again, another reverence to hardwood. Dogwood trees actually have a hard white wood that used to be harvested to make skewers for cooking. So again, this is another neat tieback to the dag or dagger reference. This is also how the Dogwood got one of its ancient common names: The Skewer-wood. Another ancient reference has to do with the dogwood's fruit, which used to be called dogberries. And as one might suspect, a dogberry was not all that good, and the name implied that the berry wasn’t even good for a dog. Today we know that Dogwood berries can irritate a dog’s tummy. In addition, handling Dogwood or touching the bark can be a skin irritant - so wear gloves when you prune. This brings me to my last point... As with so many flowering trees and shrubs, when it comes to the dogwood, prune time follows bloom time. Every June, after the tree has finished blooming, you can prune the tree back to encourage it to set more flower buds. Never prune your Dogwood after winter ends or before your dogwood has bloomed because then you are just removing the bracts (flowers) before they can bloom in the spring. So with Dogwoods, just remember: prune time follows bloom time! Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener. And remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."
¡¡Muy buenas tardes del domingo 14 de febrero día de los enamorados!! Día de las enamoradas, enamorades o da igual la condición sexual. Viva el amor, a fin de cuentas.

No haber podido acceder a su correo donde tenía sus emails, su trabajo, los pagos por la versión de Android y un largo etcétera. Todo vino por tener problemas para comprar El Señor de los Anillos 4K y lo demás es un hilo de Tweets donde acusa a Google de su incompetencia por estar 3 semanas sin poder acceder a su Gmail, Drive y demás servicios asociados a dicha cuenta. https://gamelx.es/noticias/el-creador-de-terraria-se-coge-un-berrinche-y-cancela-el-juego-para-stadia/ 7.

We ask the writers to reflect on the exhibition, with full liberty to take their own path, responding in fiction, poetry, or otherwise. The writings are published on our website and available in our Gallery. In 2020, Ian Maleney is our Commissioned Writer and in 2019, Annemarie Ní Churrieán was our Commissioned Writer. Ian Maleney and Annemarie Ní Churreáin are two exceptional writers who have emerged as part of a new generation of immensely talented Irish writers. Both have drawn on voices of people from their past and present life to reveal things in our world that can be exciting and unsettling, or both. Ian Maleney’s writings have been praised for their vivid recollection and poetic serenity (Fintan O’Toole) and Lisa McInerney, writing on his debut Minor Monuments (Tramp), describes it as ‘brilliant, pulsing with intellect and insight, with each observation composed so beautifully as to be deeply moving. This is the kind of book that changes its reader.’ Annemarie Ní Churreáin was immediately recognised as a distinctive voice for literature on the publication of her debut collection Bloodroot (2018). Thomas McCarthy (poet) praises her ‘mature sense of the lyric form and a rare sense of lyric completion, rooted in the bloodroot of women’s history’. Danielle Chapman (The Yale Times) speaks of the atmosphere of hiddenness and the possibility for revelation that provide the electricity in her poems. ‘Ní Churreáin’, she writes, ‘slices into the profoundly layered complexity of image with clear lines of powerfully compressed feeling’. At this reading Maleney and Ní Churreáin read from a selection of their texts and poems written in response to the gallery exhibitions, as well as from their published and current writing. The evening will include an introductory conversation with Susan Tomaselli who will discuss the themes in their work, their writing process and how they engaged with the TBG+S Writing Commission. https://www.templebargallery.com/whats-on/events/beyond-silence-listened-for-ian-maleney-and-annemarie-n%C3%AD-churre%C3%A1in-a-reading-and-conversation-with-susan-tomaselli
In "Bloodroot," Author Amy Greene writes her debut novel about generations of families living on the remote and rural Bloodroot Mountain, part of the Appalachian mountains in Eastern Tennessee. This discussion with the author took place on a 2010 episode of "Conversations On The Coast with Jim Foster" originating in San Francisco, California.

Welcome to the BloodRoot Podcast! In this premier episode, listeners will get an introduction to BloodRoot - what the podcast is all about, what types of material you may hear in a typical episode, and a little history about your host.
Until we get fully back on the road again, I’m checking in with a few establishments that are a little closer to home. Here's one just down the road from me. Bloodroot is a vegetarian restaurant and feminist bookstore on the banks of Long Island Sound in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
A four time death race finisher, and two time race director Robin will partner with Peter Borden to direct the 2020Death Race. Robin is matter of fact about his endurance background, but between you and me, it includes things like barefoot trail ultras. This episode includes many of the Death Race’s most legendary stories. What do $50 of Pennies, an Onion King at the top of the mountain, and a Greek textbook have in common? The 2010 Death Race. What about 1,000 sets of stone lifts, Slosh pipes, and a Broken foot? Those all happened in Robin’s 2011 Death Race. Betrayal, carrying kayaks over Bloodroot, and hours of rolling? Those are all part of Robin’s 2012 Death Race. From Cradle to Grave, Death Race In everyday Life from a four time finisher. See photos of Robin in action http://peakraces.com/death-race-podcast/ Lessons: Age is just a number Challenge your children by example Working your body and mind, for a balance in life. Finding the Death race ( be inquisitive). The themes embedded within the Death race have life long meanings. As in life these themes are part of the challenge. Think past the obvious, sometimes what you hear or see is only a part of the story. Challenge yourself to be your best, when you are at your worst. Don't fail to recognize your failures as potential success. There are times, when what is left unsaid, can be as important as what has been said. Achievements are meant to be celebrated, and learned from.

Listen to rhythmic music, whether for percussion, string quartet or vocal duet for this New Sounds. Hear works from percussionist Ian David Rosenbaum, Kelly Moran, and the Jasper String Quartet, and a vocal duet from Meredith Monk and Robert Een. From the recent record, Unbound, by the Jasper String Quartet, hear a non-stop motoring work by Judd Greenstein, “Four on the Floor.” Usually the term applies to thumping dance-club bangers, but in this work, pairs of instruments work “with and against each other, until they settle their differences and combine into a shared groove,” according to the composer. Hear music with rhythmic intensity, for prepared piano, with and without electronics from Kelly Moran, and her record, Bloodroot, which is where minimalism and black metal collide. Then, listen to music from Hauschka, who layers player piano with prepared piano. Also, listen to Inuit-style breathing games from Meredith Monk and cellist/vocalist Robert Een, from her long-form work, "Facing North," inspired by the Canadian wilderness. Then, listen to increasingly tricky and complex rhythms in a work by David Crowell for percussionist Ian David Rosenbaum. Plus, hear a work –"Redwood"- involving saxophone and interlocking guitar parts from Empyrean Atlas, the band of composer/multi-instrumentalist David Crowell. And more.

Maestro Classical Podcast 015: Composers in 2010 pt. 2 featuring Max Richter, Rachel Grimes and Quartet San Francisco Max Richter "infra 4" (mp3) from "Infra" (Fat Cat Records) More On This AlbumOriginally conceived as a Royal Ballet-commissioned collaboration between composer Max Richter, choreographer Wayne McGregor and artist Julian Opie, Max Richter's gorgeous score to 'infra' is deservedly given life of its own in this album-length release from FatCat's instrumental/orchestral imprint 130701 Records. The initial setting for 'infra' was as a ballet - written in autumn 2008 and premiered in November of the same year at The Royal Opera House in London – although here Richter’s score is given the full scope of a standalone new album. Expanded and extended from the original piece, 'infra' comprises music written for piano, electronics and string quintet, including the full performance score as well as material that has subsequently developed from the construction of the album – more a continued reference to the ballet than as a "studio album" in the strictest sense. The composition resonates with Max's characteristic musical voice – majestic, involved textures; fluent and sweeping melodies; an enigmatic and inherently intellectual understanding of harmonic complexities that compels and mesmerizes. Richter's work on the ballet came initially from McGregor's invitation, a request for 25 minutes of music for his piece, inspired by T.S. Elliot's 'The Wasteland' and named after the Latin term for 'below'. This eventually became more collaborative as the project developed – Wayne would ask for Max to extend or alter certain passages of music in accordance with his own amendments to his choreography and concept, whilst logging the whole process for a BBC documentary (broadcast, along with the ballet in full, on BBC2 in November 2008). The dance performance was backed with digital images created by Julian Opie – observational scenes of street life, haunting and curiously balletic despite being of the everyday – and Max's score is an appropriately close reference to the traveling theme: "I started thinking about making a piece on the theme of journeys. Like a road movie. Or a traveler's notebook. Or like the second unit in a film - when the scene has been played, and the image cuts away to the landscape going by. This started me thinking about Schubert's devastating and haunting "Winterreise" (Winter Journey), so I used some melodic material from Schubert as a found object in parts of my new piece." Rachel Grimes"Every Morning" from "Books of Leaves for Solo Piano" (Violinjazz Recordings) Buy at Amazon MP3 More On This Album BBC Pioneering Neo-Classicist reveals her solo debut by Spencer Grady, October 13, 2009: "We owe Rachel Grimes big." "..with Music for Egon Schiele …found the conviction and confidence to match her voice.." "Her most wondrous gift was always her ability to paint the most evocative pictures in purest ivory and her lightness of touch allows majestic statements such as the Corner Room and Long Before Us to ring out, echoing with sensuousness and sentiment before drawing the listener back in." New York Times – Live Review by Allan Kozinn, October 14, 2009: "..offered glimpses of an alternate universe in which expansive, unified projects are everything." "..overall serenity.." "..her evident fascination with French music: Ravel and Debussy hover nearby (in the watery imagery and modal harmonies of "Bloodroot" for example)" Quartet San Francisco "Crowdambo" (mp3) from "Látigo" (Violinjazz Recordings) Buy at Napster Buy at iTunes Music Store Buy at Amazon MP3 More On This Album Description of "Crawdambo" from Quartet San Francisco violinist, Jeremy Cohen: "I wrote this piece as an homage to my teacher and mentor, Anne Crowden, who passed away in 2004. Anne instilled in me a dedication to musical expression that truly became the basis of my violin-playing. She communicated to me how important it is that the joy of music-making be evident in my playing at every moment. In this little musical “thank you” to Anne I found myself cooking up a musical soup of favorite sounds, techniques, and rock and classical-infused ideas held together by a mambo rhythm."
