The Year of the Cobbler

By: Rodney Marshall,Joe Townsend,Jefferson Lake,Tom Rostance,Norman Maycock,Martyn Ingram,Jeremy Casey,James Heneghan,Tom Reed,Gareth Willsher,Phil Agius,Peter Gleasure,Tom Ingram

November 2015. As police and the national press investigated the 'missing millions' loaned by local government - for an unfinished stand - and the borough council understandably demanded their money back, things were looking bleak at Northampton Town Football Club. With staff unpaid and fans demanding answers in vain, HMRC's winding-up order threatened to send the club into administration or even oblivion. Against a backdrop more fitting for a soap opera, there emerged a unique, almost surreal story of solidarity and success. Five months later - shattering a host of club records in the process - the Cobblers were champions before any other League club had even sealed promotion. The Year of the Cobbler reflects upon life as a lower division football fan and, more specifically, a season which both nightmares and sweet dreams are made of... 'Forget Leicester - Northampton Town are English football's story of the season.' (The Sun)

The Papers of Thomas Jefferson, Volume 15

March 1789 to November 1789

By: Thomas Jefferson

In Volume 15 Jefferson, a veteran of the councils of his own country's revolution, becomes an eyewitness of the opening events of the great upheaval in France in 1789. The Archbishop of Bordeaux and his colleagues of the National Assembly ask Jefferson's aid and counsel in drafting a new constitution; he declines in July but gives a private dinner in August for Lafayette and the moderates who wish to form a coalition and thus avoid civil war. He is catapulted into the limelight by Mirabeau's attack on Necker for the shortage of grain and flour. He advises Lafayette about the latter's proposed draft of a Declaration of Rights and proposes a compromise charter for France in order to gain time, to consolidate the advances already made, and to allow public opinion to ripen. Jefferson dines with De Corny and learns at first hand what happened at the fall of the Bastille. Three days later he is among the crowds with Dugald Stewart, the young Scottish philosopher, as Louis XVI is "led in triumph by his people thro' the streets of the capital." He writes long dispatches to Jay and private letters to Thomas Paine and Richard Price, among others, detailing the events that he regarded as "the first chapter of the history of European liberty." Early in September Jefferson becomes ill and, treated by a philosopher-physician, is possessed by the idea that "the earth belongs in usufruct to the living." He urges Madison to develop this concept and to apply it to American legislation--but his ostensible purpose is supported by arguments addressed wholly to the situation in France, whereby he furnishes justification for the abolition of ancient debts, the public appropriation of feudal grants, the wiping out of hereditary privileges, and the eradication of monopolies. Late in September, with Polly, Patsy, Petit, and two servants, Jefferson leaves Paris for a six months' leave, unaware that the same day the United States Senate confirmed his nomination as Secretary of State. Four weeks later he lands in Norfolk, where he is greeted by the officials--and finds that politics and anti-federalism are far from inactive in Virginia.

Competitiveness and Knowledge

An International Comparison of Traditional Firms

By: Knut Ingar Westeren,Hanas Cader,Maria de Fátima Sales,Jan Ole Similä,Jefferson Staduto

In the twenty-first century technology has become global, and firms compete using knowledge and capital. The ‘traditional firm’ has a need for innovation and depends on efficient knowledge management to improve productivity. This book examines five firms that produce the same commodity, white chicken meat, in different parts of the world and under very different conditions. It brings to bear the expertise and international perspectives of the author team, utilizing theoretical discussions and case studies to address the question: How do local firms use knowledge to compete in an increasingly globalized world? This book will be of interest to any postgraduate student, researcher or policymaker hoping to achieve a firmer grasp of innovation and knowledge management: a recurring and highly pertinent theme in contemporary economics.

The Papers of Thomas Jefferson, Retirement Series, Volume 5

1 May 1812 to 10 March 1813

By: Thomas Jefferson

The Retirement Series documents Jefferson's written legacy between his return to private life on 4 March 1809 and his death on 4 July 1826. During this period Jefferson founded the University of Virginia and sold his extraordinary library to the nation, but his greatest legacy from these years is the astonishing depth and breadth of his correspondence with statesmen, inventors, scientists, philosophers, and ordinary citizens on topics spanning virtually every field of human endeavor.--From publisher description.

Echoes from the Farm

Echoes from the Farm

By: Jonathan T. Jefferson

In the early 1970s, when author Dr. Jonathan T. Jefferson (a.k.a. "John-John") was a young child, his parents did something unprecedented for a working class African American family from Queens: They bought an old, dilapidated farmhouse in Upstate New York's dairy country as a summer home for them and their eight children. Initially fish out of water, over the next decade the Jefferson family became part of the landscape, the children eagerly anticipating those precious weeks of adventure in cow country. Echoes from the Farm is Dr. Jefferson's way of sharing the childhood memories from those years that have guided his interests throughout adulthood. Through those memories, he also shares a special part of his family's love and the love that was shown to them in a unique place in the American tapestry. He would not trade his childhood farm experiences for anything in the world. Journey with John-John as he reminisces about collecting apples for his mother's homemade apple sauce, jumping out of a barn window into piles of hay, and warring with one of his older brothers. Laugh heartily as you read about how one of his friends mistook a porcupine for a bear, the frogs' legs he collected for dinner, and his close encounter with the longest snake ever seen in North America. Enjoy the way his most vivid recollections are brought to life by wonderful illustrations. And be inspired to embark on your own adventure to build precious memories for you and your family.

Jefferson's Legal Commonplace Book

By: Thomas Jefferson

Jefferson's Legal Commonplace Book

By: Thomas Jefferson

As a law student and young lawyer in the 1760s, Thomas Jefferson began writing abstracts of English common law reports. Even after abandoning his law practice, he continued to rely on his legal commonplace book to document the legal, historical, and philosophical reading that helped shape his new role as a statesman. Indeed, he made entries in the notebook in preparation for his mission to France, as president of the United States, and near the end of his life. This authoritative volume is the first to contain the complete text of Jefferson’s notebook. With more than 900 entries on such thinkers as Beccaria, Montesquieu, and Lord Kames, Jefferson’s Legal Commonplace Book is a fascinating chronicle of the evolution of Jefferson’s searching mind. Jefferson’s abstracts of common law reports, most published here for the first time, indicate his deepening commitment to whig principles and his incisive understanding of the political underpinnings of the law. As his intellectual interests and political aspirations evolved, so too did the content and composition of his notetaking. Unlike the only previous edition of Jefferson’s notebook, published in 1926, this edition features a verified text of Jefferson’s entries and full annotation, including essential information on the authors and books he documents. In addition, the volume includes a substantial introduction that places Jefferson’s text in legal, historical, and biographical context.

Remembered Self

Emotion and Memory in Personality

By: Jefferson A. Singer,Peter Salovey

A theory for psychologists on the role of memory in personality psychology. In The Remembered Self, Jefferson A. Singer and Peter Salovey persuasively argue that memories are an important window into one's life story, revealing characteristic moods, motives, and thinking patterns. Through experimental evidence, clinical case material, and examples from literature, the authors offer a fresh perspective on the role of memory in personality and clinical psychology. Unlike the conventional psychoanalytic approach to memory, which concentrates on what is forgotten, Singer and Salovey treat memory in a new and different way with an emphasis on what is remembered. Theirs is a bold new theory of memory and self that is both comprehensive and accessible.

The Power of Knowing Your True Identity Volume 1

The Chronicles of the Sons of God Trilogy

By: Dr. Gary M. Jefferson

The need for understanding our true identity is crucial. Without it we really don't know if we are coming or going and we will never know the full benefits of our "true birthright". As you read and study these chapters you will discover the true position, purpose, power, authority and destiny given to us by God. Luke 12:32 "Fear not little flock for it is the Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Knowing our true identity will bring forth the manifestation of Christ's dominion, and the ruling reigning authoritative rights of our God given inheritance on planet earth as a now reality. It's Christ's day, the day of the Lord manifesting forth in his people. A people that will allow him to open their eyes to his illuminating light of glory and understanding. God is ready to move in a generation that will reveal all of himself through Christ. And in a people unveiling mysteries and secrets or any type of ignorance (1 Cor.15:28). It is my prayer that you would travel through each chapter anticipating the destination and embracing "The True Identity" as your own divine inheritance while you maneuver through each revelation and thought in this book. This book “The Power of Knowing Your True Identity” is volume one of the Collection Trilogy “The Chronicles of the Sons of God”.

The Motel in America

By: John A. Jakle,Keith A. Sculle,Jefferson S. Rogers

In the second volume of the acclaimed "Gas, Food, Lodging" trilogy, authors John Jakle, Keith Sculle, and Jefferson Rogers take an informative, entertaining, and comprehensive look at the history of the motel. From the introduction of roadside tent camps and motor cabins in the 1910s to the wonderfully kitschy motels of the 1950s that line older roads and today's comfortable but anonymous chains that lure drivers off the interstate, Americans and their cars have found places to stay on their travels. Motels were more than just places to sleep, however. They were the places where many Americans saw their first color television, used their first coffee maker, and walked on their first shag carpet. Illustrated with more than 230 photographs, postcards, maps, and drawings, The Motel in America details the development of the motel as a commercial enterprise, its imaginative architectural expressions, and its evolution within the place-product-packaging concept along America's highways. As an integral part of America's landscape and culture, the motel finally receives the in-depth attention it deserves.

Mugamore

By: Jonathan T. Jefferson

This book was developed to compare the real life educational experiences of an average child during the last generation in which the United States led the world in education to a real child's experiences today (when the United States is no longer in the top 20). The practice of labeling students with a disability has reached the status of a dangerous standard practice. Increasing demands for educational accountability will lead to more students being labeled and left behind. Written from a unique in-depth child's point-of-view, this book is designed to trigger a paradigm shift from automatically labeling children to patiently allowing them to grow into themselves. The author compares common disabilities chapter-by-chapter in sync with the child's intentions (or lack thereof). This sharing of the educational lives of two children, coupled with peer reviewed literature and research, provides powerful motivation for change....

Port Jefferson

By: Robert Maggio,Earlene O'Hare,Port Jefferson Free Library,Port Jefferson Village

The history of Port Jefferson, a village on Long Islands North Shore, is rich with the lore of ships and the sea. Once called Drowned Meadow because of flooding at high tide, the town was renamed Port Jefferson in 1836. Those same harbor waters, which overran their banks, would become the natural resource that made Port Jeffersons first industryshipbuildingpossible. By the mid-19th century, the village had become one of the principal shipbuilding centers on Long Island and a major port of entry. The names of many prominent shipbuilding families are preserved in the villages streets and institutions, including Mather, Jones, Bayles, and Hawkins. When the shipbuilding industry declined in the late 1800s, Port Jefferson used its seaside location to reinvent itself as a recreation destination, attracting notables such as Franklin Roosevelt. The communitys heritage is evidenced today in the numerous well-kept historic homes and buildings that stand along the hilly, tree-lined streets overlooking the harbor.

The Empire of a Thousand Planets

By: John M. Jefferson

Almost 100 years have passed since the Union of Neptu united the people of the planet. But Cat, the Neptian computer, predicts an imminent attack by the Qhan, a reptilian race, under their self-appointed god Qhatan and the Empire of a Thousand Planets. Neptu and the Qhan home planet, Zhra, are connected by a star gate that has long been sealed, but the despotic Qhatan will stop at nothing to open it again, draining both his resources and his people. When young psychic Joran of Zhra contacts Cat after Qhatan brutally terminates his father, Cat foresees a way to stop their predicted invasion. He reawakens Jalath the Sorcerer to help the young Zoltan develop his psychic powers, a force against Qhatan, and lead a mass exodus to Earth, which has recovered from nuclear holocaust. Meanwhile, on Zhra, Joran seeks to liberate his people, but Qhatan’s minions stalk him in Zhra’s subterranean tunnels, and as Jalath travels the states of Neptu looking for candidates to establish a new colony on Earth, a group of zealots will stop at nothing to discredit Jalath’s knowledge and work. The third book in the Devistor series, The Empire of a Thousand Planets plunges readers once again into Jefferson’s deeply sophisticated universe, only to find it balancing on the edge of a knife.

The Phantom Empire

II Devistor

By: John M. Jefferson

“Ladies and gentlemen,” the Lataran president began grimly, eyes scanning the room, “we thank you for making time in your busy schedules to come here. Alarus and I are jointly hosting this urgent meeting. We want to make it clear from the outset that neither of us alone originated the request for your presence. We have a situation which transcends our national interests.” Three hundred years have passed since the events of The Search, the first book in the Devistor series, and the western hemisphere of the planet Neptu has developed into fifteen disparate nations with economic ties, the two most powerful being Latara and undersea Zenaja. Out of nowhere, their uneasy peace is jolted by an entity calling itself the Union of Neptu, which launches a shocking cyber-attack on every nation simultaneously and demands that all the governments surrender to them. Zenaja and Latara summon all the other nations to a conference and then head up a search for this mysterious Union. What they discover is absolutely world-changing, but a nationalist political faction in Zenaja seizes control, and rather than uniting against a common enemy, Neptu is soon teetering on the brink of world war. Guided by the mystical Cat, who survives throughout the centuries, the current people of Neptu must somehow face these epic challenges, confront their complicated past, and find a way to devise a different world—lest none of them survive. With unique and compelling characters, a potent mix of fantasy and science fiction, and a hard-driving plot with surprises around every corner, The Phantom Empire returns readers to a deeply fascinating world with an anguished history.
