Profiting from the Plains looks at two inextricably linked historical movements in the United States: the westward expansion of the great Northern Railway and the agricultural development of the northern plains. Claire Strom explores the persistent, idiosyncratic attempts by the Great Northern to boost agricultural production along its rail routes from St. Paul to Seattle between 1878 and 1917. Lacking a federal land grant, the Great Northern could not make money through land sales like other railways. It had to rely on haulage to make a profit, and the greatest potential for increasing haulage lay in farming.
The energetic and charismatic owner of the Great Northern Railway, James J. Hill, spearheaded most of the initiatives undertaken by his corporation to boost agricultural production. He tried, often unsuccessfully, to persuade farmers of the profitability of his methods, which were largely based on his personal farming experience. When Hill’s initial efforts to increase haulage failed, he shifted his focus to working with outside agencies and institutions, often providing them with the funding to pursue projects he hoped would profit his railroad. At the time, state and federal agencies were also promoting agricultural development through irrigation, conservation, and dryland farming, but their agendas often clashed with those of the Great Northern Railway. Because Hill failed to grasp the extent to which politicians’ goals differed from those of the railroad, his use of federal expertise to promote agricultural change often backfired. But despite these obstacles, the railroad magnate ironically remained among the last defenders of the small-scale farmer modeled on Jeffersonian idealism.
This fascinating story of railroad politics and development ties into themes of corporate and federal sponsorship, which are increasingly recognized as fundamental to western history. As the first scholarly examination of James J. Hill’s agricultural enterprises, Profiting from the Plains makes an important contribution to the biography of the popular and controversial Hill, as well as to western and environmental history.

I write this book, "God Is" "The Gospel of Rev. Phil" not as a speculator or as a spectator; I write this book to document my experiences of the Great Mystery. "God Is" is a Spiritual journey not a religious one. I present this book as a gift of Grace to you, just as the spiritual experiences I share with you were a gift of Grace to me. Because of these experiences I am able to deal with life on life's terms without the use of any mood or mind-altering substances. I have learned how to be of selfless service to my fellow spiritual beings. I believe each and every religion, theology and spiritual practice points its practitioners in that direction. I write this book for a number of reasons. One of those reasons is to transmit "The Gospel of Rev. Phil" (The Good News of Rev. Phil) which is to introduce you to an all-powerful, all-knowing, ever-present, unconditionally loving, non-judging Divine Presence. This Presence wants nothing but your greatest good to be made manifest in your life and works for that outcome.
God repeatedly intervened in my life, saving me from myself, in the hope that I would, at the next crossroad, choose to walk towards the light instead of away from it. I didn't need to be a disciple or devotee of any teacher, practice or religion in order for God to provide me with an option of transformation. God is unconditionally loving. I didn't need to address God by a certain name, I just chose whatever I wanted to name this entity, and not self-will, to be my guiding force. I didn't need to meditate or pray in a certain way; I needed to just surrender in whatever fashion resonated with me. I didn't need to prostrate myself in a prescribed fashion, I needed to master my ego. "God Is" is unconcerned with ceremony, ritual and dogma, just my Soul's development. My being was enough for the option of progressive enlightenment to be available. I didn't have to save my Soul, I had to educate it.
Описание: Terres de haute technologie, les pays germanophones sont egalement celebres pour leurs phenomenes de reaction contre la modernite et la vivacite de leurs cultures alternatives: scene underground de Berlin, groupes anthroposophiques, etc. Entre le « mouvement de jeunesse », les communautes New Age contemporaines et les bohemes de RDA, les differences semblent l’emporter. Par son regard transversal, le present ouvrage revele pourtant toute une serie de liens unissant les differentes formes de resistances souterraines a l’autorite dans les pays germanophones au XXe siecle. Il interroge la tendance propre aux phenomenes contre-culturels a cumuler progressisme et tendances regressives, a privilegier les actions indirectes sur la realite collective et a abolir la distinction entre vie privee et action politique. Ce livre contient des contributions en francais et en allemand. Il resulte d’un colloque international qui s’est tenu a Saint-Etienne les 5-6-7 avril 2012. Bei aller technischen Fortschrittlichkeit sind die deutschsprachigen Lander ebenfalls fur ihren beharrlichen Widerstand gegen die Moderne und die Lebendigkeit ihrer alternativen Kulturen bekannt: man denke an die Berliner Untergrundszene, die Vielzahl anthroposophischer Gruppen u.v.m. Ideologisch wie strategisch scheint dabei zunachst einmal den Wandervogel, zeitgenossische New-Age-Gemeinden und die DDR-Boheme mehr zu trennen als zu einen. Der vorliegende Sammelband deckt allerdings auch eine ganze Reihe von Gemeinsamkeiten zwischen diesen Erscheinungen auf. Er befasst sich insbesondere mit der bei gegenkulturellen Phanomenen haufig zu beobachtenden Tendenz, progressive und regressive Bewegungen miteinander zu verknupfen, indirekte Aktionsformen gegen die bestehende soziale Ordnung zu bevorzugen und die Unterschiede zwischen Privatleben und politischer Aktion aufzuheben. Das Buch fasst die Ergebnisse einer internationalen Tagung zusammen, die vom 5. bis zum 7. April 2012 in Saint-Etienne stattfand.

Описание: "The book is informed by the Vietnamese immigrations of the nineteen-seventies but is filled with social observation of contemporary middle-class culture and indie sensibility . . . Quietly beautiful, Strom's stories are hip without being ironic." --The New Yorker When The Gentle Order of Girls and Boys was first published in 2006, it was groundbreaking in its depiction of contemporary young Vietnamese women living in the United States, centering their ordinary lives as mothers, lovers, friends, and daughters against the backdrop of immigration and assimilation. Available now for the first time in paperback and featuring a new introduction by Dao Strom, The Gentle Order of Girls and Boys is a beautifully written, psychologically astute foray into the rite of female passage. Mary is a college film student full of yearning who's confounded by the casual give-and-take of the people around her; Darcy, a twenty-something musician, must confront the dark and unknown in the form of a naked stranger who repeatedly breaks into her ramshackle sublet; Leena, aged thirty, is isolated and alone after having been transplanted from Vietnam to Texas through marriage to an American businessman; and finally Sage, a new mother in her early thirties who finds herself, while on a road trip with her four-year-old boy and his father, entertaining thoughts of new romantic possibilities. With both shrewd insight into the moral perils of contemporary life and a deep compassion for the fumbles we make along the way, The Gentle Order of Girls and Boys is as intimate as it is sweeping--revealing the gritty truths of loving, leaving, and growing up.
