Please join Melissa Studdard and Tiferet Journal on 6/17/13 , at 7 PM EST, for an insightful conversation with prize-winning poet, translator, and essayist, Jane Hirshfield. We’ll be focusing on Hirshfield’s most recent collection, Come, Thief and discussing other works as well.
Hirshfield is the author of seven collections of poetry and a book of essays, and co-editor and co-translator of four books. Her work, which is frequently anthologized in places such as The Best Spiritual Writing, The Best American Poetry, and The Pushcart Prize Anthology, deals with subjects that range "from the metaphysical and passionate to the political, ecological, and scientific to subtle unfoldings of daily life and experience.” Her honors include The Poetry Center Book Award; the Donald Hall-Jane Kenyon Prize in American Poetry; fellowships from the Guggenheim and Rockefeller Foundations, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Academy of American Poets; Columbia University’s Translation Center Award; and the Commonwealth Club’s California Book Award and the Northern California Book Reviewers Award. In fall 2004, she was awarded the 70th Academy Fellowship for distinguished poetic achievement by The Academy of American Poets, an honor formerly held by such poets as Robert Frost, Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams, and Elizabeth Bishop. In 2012, she was elected a Chancellor of the Academy.
The Christian Science Monitor calls Hirshfield’s poems, “An evocative mix of control and wildness, stunning beauty and unseen forces.” The Washington Post says they are, “Poems that brilliantly portray even mundane experiences as if they were nothing short of revelation.”

Inquiring Sage DGRSD Talks 19
by Inquiring Sage in Culture
Tags: Culture of Resistance Environmentism Justice Feminism Liberty
People cling to the idea that civilization is salvageable, reformable, and all we have. This shortsighted view is what has kept the systems of violence and oppression going for thousands of years; always promoting how things are better while millions/billions starve, are exploited, and while the rape of the natural world is venerated. It is undeniable that this culture only encourages consumption and willfully ignores the truth of its viciousness. It denies that it is unsustainable, violent, and annihilating the possibilities for generations yet to come and millions of species each passing year. The darkness grows...
This talk will focus on the problems of civilization, the possible futures, and the strategies to bring down.

Health, Fitness and Wellbeing are three commonly heard and fort for prospects. It is believed that personal fitness is one of the keys to a long, happy and healthy life.

An increased level of concentration is experienced, many people have more stamina and a greater readiness to meet life’s challenges.

Paul Winter, Earth Music
by The Jazzy Vegetarian in Food
Tags: paul winter Paul Winter Sextet Paul Winter consort vegan healthy recipes laura theodore jazz music
Today Laura Theodore, the Jazzy Vegetarian welcomes master saxophonist PAUL WINTER who is winner of six Grammy Awards and twelve Grammy nominations. We’ll hear about his 50th Anniversary Anthology album of the Paul Winter Sextet, and his journey as a musician and vegetarian. Look for the companion cookbook to Season Three: Jazzy Vegetarian Classics: Vegan Twists on American Family Favorites. (You can pre-order it now!) Paul Winter’s musical realm has long embraced the traditions of the world’s cultures, as well as the extraordinary voices of what he refers to as “the greater symphony of the Earth.” His concert tours and recording expeditions have taken him to thirty-seven countries and to wilderness areas on six continents. Winter’s forming of Living Music Records in 1980 has created the recording forum for the exploration of his musical-ecological sound-vision, enabling musicians to record special Earth Music and reach the human community with music of the wider earth community. The timeless music of Living Music Records is usually recorded in Winter’s barn-studio surrounded by protected woodland, sometimes in natural acoustic spaces such as the Grand Canyon, and frequently beneath the vaults of the Cathedral of St John the Divine, the world’s largest Gothic cathedral where the Consort are artists-in-residence. Paul Winter’s Winter and Summer Solstice Celebrations, and Earth Mass performed each Feast of St Francis, are among the most popular seasonal events in New York City.

The Neonicotinoid View: Neonicotinoid Impact On Bee Growth
by The Organic View in Environment
Tags: Professor Dave Goulson neonicotinoids The Neonicotinoid View Tom Theobald June Stoyer
In the world of beekeeping, neonicotinoids have maintained the spotlight as the scientific evidence continues to grow regarding the decline of the world's bee population. Neonicotinoids are defined by the EPA as a class of insecticides with a common mode of action that affects the central nervous system of insects, causing paralysis and death. All of the neonicotinoids were registered after 1984 and were not subject to reregistration. Some uncertainties have been identified since their initial registration regarding the potential environmental fate and effects of neonicotinoid pesticides, particularly as they relate to pollinators. Data suggests that neonicotinic residues can accumulate in pollen and nectar of treated plants and may represent a potential exposure to pollinators. Adverse effects data as well as beekill incidents have also been reported, highlighting the potential direct and/or indirect effects of neonicotinic pesticides. Therefore, among other refinements to ecological risk assessment during registration review, the Agency will consider potential effects of the neonicotinoids to honeybees and other pollinating insects. Dr. David Goulson, Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Sterling and his team have conducted new research titled “Neonicotinoid pesticide reduces bumble bee colony growth and queen production.” In this special series called “The Neonicotinoid View”, hosts, June Stoyer and special co- host, Tom Theobald will be joined today by Dr. David Goulson, Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Sterling to discuss his research.
