06:44:45 - 11 - Ch. 10 What Comes From Corn
Slosson reviews the transformation of alchemistry from an obscure and imprecise practice to the science of chemistry. Along the way, he explains how the modern industrial world now relies on fertilizers, explosives, textile materials, polymers and metals.By exploring the properties of a once undervalued element, the high strength of vanadium steel made the Ford car possible. Another element, cerium, appears in butane lighters and was once seen as a threat to the match industry in France.In his chapter on oils, Slosson reviews the development of hydrogenated oils, especially during WWII, in the search for a way to reuse otherwise discarded components of corn and cottonseed. Through the revolutionary reaction of hydrogenation, waste materials became a stable product that wouldn't spoil when packaged or carried without refrigeration. Once thought of as a miracle, shoppers were once willing to pay more for fully hydrogenated oils than their natural, unsaturated forms. Only in recent years has evidence of health risks checked their popularity and given them the image of cheap, unhealthy fillers. (Summary by LivelyHive)

Selected Essays by Voltairine DE CLEYRE (1866 - 1912)

01:23:20 - 22 - The Economic Tendency of Freethought
Voltairine de Cleyre (1866-1912) was, according to Emma Goldman, 'the most gifted and brilliant anarchist woman America ever produced.' Today she is not widely known as a consequence of her short life. De Cleyre was especially influenced by Thomas Paine, Mary Wollstonecraft and Clarence Darrow. After the hanging of the Haymarket protesters in 1887, she became an anarchist. 'Till then I believed in the essential justice of the American law of trial by jury,' she wrote in an autobiographical essay, 'After that I never could.' She was known as an excellent speaker and writer - in the opinion of biographer Paul Avrich, she was 'a greater literary talent than any other American anarchist' - and as a tireless advocate for the anarchist cause, whose 'religious zeal,' according to Goldman, 'stamped everything she did.'

Many librarians have felt the need and expressed the desire for a select collection of children's Christmas stories in one volume. This book claims to be just that and nothing more. Each of the stories has already won the approval of thousands of children, and each is fraught with the true Christmas spirit.

Derniers combats, conclusion de la paix.L'Odyssée est une des deux œuvres majeures d'Homère et en même temps de la littérature européenne, aussi je suis persuadée qu'il est important que les anciennes œuvres littéraires grecques soient enregistrées par des voix grecques.

The semi-invalid Mrs. Moulton and her long-suffering husband are touring Europe with their two adult daughters, Jane and Lydia. They have firm ideas of what is proper and decorous. Mr. Moulton's young relative, Catalina, does not fit this ideal. Her dress is too short. She mixes with the natives. She wants to visit Spain... not, in itself, a problem; except she proposes to travel in a third class compartment on the train! Funds will not stretch to any other class, and if the Moultons refuse to accompany her, she proposes to walk! What will become of them all? Surely only doom, disaster and the loss of reputation lie ahead. - Summary by Lynne Thompson

CATIL
librivox-EgH03RHcHcU
Catilinarias (Discursos contra Catilina) by Marcus Tullius Cicero (106 - 43 BCE)
Genre(s): Classics (Greek & Latin Antiquity), Political Science
Read by: Epachuko in Spanish
Chapters:
00:00:00 - 01 - Primera Catilinaria - Ante el Senado, 8 noviembre 63 AC
00:30:42 - 02 - Segunda Catilinaria - Ante el pueblo de Roma, 9 noviembre 63 AC
00:59:50 - 03 - Tercera Catilinaria - Ante el pueblo de Roma, 3 diciembre 63 AC
01:29:20 - 04 - Cuarta Catilinaria - Ante el Senado, 5 diciembre 63 AC
Estos discursos tuvieron lugar en el año 63 A.C. en el seno de las disputas entre dos facciones políticas: los optimates y los populares por el control del Senado romano. Cicerón despliega sus dotes y maestría como orador en su momento de máximo esplendor e influencia. Sus argumentos y giros, son la esencia misma de la actividad política, de la que siempre ha sido y será un referente muchas veces imitado pero pocas veces igualado por su frescura, elegancia y capacidad de encandilar al oyente.
En la Primera Catilinaria, la más memorable y audaz, Cicerón persuade al Senado de que Catilina tiene en marcha una conjura para acabar con la República, aunque todavía no puede probarlo. La argumentación es tan genial, que Catilina se ve obligado a abandonar avergonzado el Senado y la ciudad lo que sirve a modo de autoinculpación.En la Segunda Catilinaria Cicerón se dirige al pueblo de Roma, les advierte de los peligros de la conjura y la necesidad de ser vigilantes, anunciando que no tendrá compasión para aquellos que atenten contra el Estado. La Tercera Catilinaria sirve para dar cuenta al pueblo romano, exponiendo las confesiones, cartas y testigos que probaban ya, sin duda, los planes de golpe de estado de Catilina y sus partidarios, ya detenidos. En la Cuarta Catilinaria Cicerón se dirige al Senado antes de que decidan sobre el castigo a imponer a Catilina y sus secuaces: la pena de muerte (de la que él es partidario) o la cadena perpetua, y subraya su papel como abnegado servidor de la República.
Estos cuatro discursos se toman de la traduccion de Luis Navarro, intelectual y erudito del siglo XIX. (Introducción por Epachuko)
