Indian trust asset reform: Provides Native American tribes greater autonomy over the management and use of their nonmonetary assets held in trust by the federal government.
Trevor's Law: Requires federal agencies to document and track childhood and adult cancer clusters.
VOCA, Victims of Crime Act distribution changes: Stopped a budgeting tactic that had prevented fines and penalties from being spent to aid victims, their intended purpose. The change resulted in a 600 percent increase in funds available to victims, from $500 million in 2015 to $3 billion in 2016.
Heavy trucks: Allowed higher maximum weights on trucks using interstate highways in Idaho, to align with neighboring states.
Short-Line Railroad Infrastructure Tax Credit: Created and extended tax incentives to increase investment in short-line railroads.
Alzheimer's Accountability Act: As part of a major budget law, required reporting of annual resources needed to support research to prevent and treat Alzheimer's by the National Institutes of Health; it resulted in increased appropriations for Alzheimer's research.
Violence Against Women Act reauthorization: Reauthorized and expanded the landmark 1994 law to protect victims of domestic and sexual violence, which had expired and become the subject of a two-year legislative fight.
Teen dating violence protection: Crapo has long pushed this, and succeeded in making teen dating violence part of the federal domestic violence definition so that all federal domestic violence programs, including both preventive and response services, apply to teen dating violence.
As of the latest campaign finance report, filed July 15, Crapo had $5.1 million in his campaign war chest, more than five times Democratic challenger Jerry Sturgill's balance of $427,514. But Sturgill's fundraising has been prodigious for a first-time Democratic candidate in heavily Republican Idaho. As of July 15, he'd raised more than $270,000, nearly all from individuals, plus loaned his campaign $240,000 of his own money. The majority of Crapo's contributions have come from PACs, many of them representing financial interests.
In nearly a quarter-century in Washington, D.C., Idaho Sen. Mike Crapo has quietly built a reputation as a diligent, hardworking conservative who plays by the rules, quickly rises to leadership positions and is willing to reach across the aisle to get big things done.
So his 2012 arrest for drunken driving was especially jarring – it didn't fit the image of the teetotaling, Mormon senator, a Harvard-educated attorney known for his quiet advocacy on health, tax and budget issues.
Crapo has labored in the shadow of a beloved older brother and successful Idaho politician who died young of cancer; fought a tough fight following his own cancer diagnosis while serving in the Senate; and weathered the DUI scandal with low-key apologies, a pledge to swear off alcohol and dogged work. When he held a record 200 town hall meetings across Idaho over the past two years, no one asked him about it.
Crapo's biggest splash in Washington, D.C., came when he served on the Simpson-Bowles Commission and the bipartisan "Gang of Six" senators pushing a big, tough plan to cut the national debt by both cutting spending and raising revenues – a plan that included reforming the tax code, lowering tax rates while eliminating loopholes and reforming entitlements like Medicare and Social Security. He's not often been in the national news since, aside from the DUI.
But in his most recent six-year term in the Senate – his third – Crapo sponsored seven major bipartisan bills that became law. They included the Indian Trust Asset Reform Act, which passed this year, and a significant change in how fine and penalty funds are distributed to crime victims, which resulted in an increase in funds to victims from $500 million in 2015 to $3 billion in 2016. He has more bipartisan initiatives in the works on nuclear licensing, which could benefit the Idaho National Laboratory, and funding for fighting wildfires.
"My style, my approach is to build bipartisan solutions and support," Crapo said. It's the only way, he said, to get anything passed in the Senate, where a 60-vote majority is required in the 100-member body.
Crapo has long been known as the opposite of a back-bench bomb-thrower. His landmark Owhyee Initiative legislation in 2009 brought together ranchers, recreationists, conservationists, county commissioners and others to resolve land-management issues and designate a new wilderness in southern Idaho. After eight years of work on the project, he became an outspoken advocate for collaboration.
But his rhetoric seemed to take a sharp turn to the right in 2015 as he approached re-election. His campaign thumped repeatedly on his conservative bona fides – his long-standing support for gun rights and anti-abortion voting record.
Perhaps most notably, Crapo went on "Tea Party Bob" Neugebauer's radio show in spring 2015 and praised nine Republican Idaho legislators for "doing their jobs" in maneuvering to defeat a must-pass child support enforcement bill on state sovereignty grounds. The Legislature was forced to hold a special session later that spring to pass an amended version of the bill.
Crapo said in a statement afterward that he supports child support enforcement and wasn't taking a position on the legislative fight. And he maintains now that his comments on the radio show were misconstrued. But he defends his rhetoric through the year, which apparently succeeded in heading off any challenge from the right in the GOP primary, in which he was unopposed.
"I have always been very, very conservative," Crapo said. His ratings from the American Conservative Union, which has been rating members of Congress for the past 45 years, bear that out: In 1996, the group gave him a 95 percent rating. In 2015, it was 96 percent.
Crapo was just 15 when his older brother, Terry, was elected to the Idaho Legislature. Within two years, Terry Crapo would rise to become House majority leader.
After graduating with honors from Brigham Young University, Crapo served as an intern for then-Idaho GOP congressman Orval Hansen. It was the summer of the Watergate break-in.
When Crapo was admitted to Harvard Law School, he was following in his brother Terry's footsteps.
"I wanted to be like my brother," he said.
As a young lawyer, Crapo clerked for a 9th Circuit Court of Appeals judge in San Diego for a year, then accepted a position with a big Los Angeles-based law firm that was opening an office in San Diego. After a year, he moved back to Idaho and went into practice with his brother.
Terry Crapo died of leukemia in 1982 at age 43. Two years later, Mike Crapo was elected to the Idaho Senate.
He ran for office despite his brother's warning that practicing law full time and also serving part time as a state lawmaker is a big, difficult-to-manage time commitment.
Like his brother, Crapo was elected to a leadership position, assistant majority leader, in just his second term. He ran for president pro tem, the Senate's highest leadership post, in his third term and won. The Senate leader he succeeded, Jim Risch, had been unexpectedly defeated for re-election that year; Risch is now Idaho's junior senator, serving with Crapo.
"I got pulled further into the statewide politics because of that leadership position, and it just got very, very busy," Crapo said. "I was still practicing law full time and trying to be the pro tem of the Senate, and there wasn't enough time to do it. So I had to either quit the Legislature and practice law full time or run for Congress," turning his legislative work into his full-time job.
Elected to the U.S. House, Crapo again rose swiftly into leadership, starting with election as leader of his freshman class.
Crapo briefly considered running for governor in the 1990s, acknowledging that family considerations made it desirable to return to Idaho. His wife, Susan, and five children still lived in Idaho Falls, often seeing him only on weekends. But he ended up sticking with his path in D.C.
When he moved from the House to the Senate in 1998, he ran for an open seat as then-Sen. Dirk Kempthorne ran for governor. Crapo quickly adjusted to the Senate's slower pace and need for a bipartisan majority to move any legislation.
Crapo is now the chief deputy whip in the Senate's Republican leadership team – the No. 2 position under Majority Whip John Cornyn – and also has chaired the "Committee on Committees" each session of Congress since 2004. That's a key position, appointed by the majority leader, that requires him to work with every member of the caucus and handle negotiations on which senators get on which committees. Though it's called a committee, he's the only member.
Crapo was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1999, his first year in the Senate. "It's just an entire shock when one gets that kind of a diagnosis," he said.
He still tried to keep up with his Senate schedule.
"I made it to almost if not every vote," he said.
Crapo already had made health and funding for biomedical research a big priority in his Senate career, partly as a result of having two brothers, an uncle, a brother-in-law and two sons who are doctors.
But he said his experience with cancer strengthened his understanding and commitment to health issues. He became an advocate for men's health, and for years he sponsored booths at county fairs around Idaho encouraging men to get tested for prostate cancer.
Crapo's legislative record is more substantive than flashy. But if he succeeds in winning a fourth term – and the polls have him heavily favored – he'll be the first Idaho senator since Frank Church to do so. Church was a famed national figure, a Democrat who ran for president, opposed the Vietnam War, crusaded against abuses by the CIA and FBI and had major influence on the nation's foreign and domestic policies in the 1970s.
Maya MacGuineas, head of the Campaign to Fix the Debt and president of the nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, has worked with Crapo on the federal debt issue.
Crapo says some pieces of what he worked for in that effort have been passed since then, including caps on discretionary spending and some budget process reforms.
He's built seniority on two major Senate committees, banking and finance, while also serving on the budget committee; that gives him a say in budget debates. The finance committee's jurisdiction covers taxes, all aspects of generating revenue and entitlement programs including Medicare and Medicaid.
But it's the banking committee on which Crapo is the ranking GOP member, meaning he'll likely become chairman if Republicans hold their Senate majority in November. That panel has oversight of financial institutions, economic policy, the insurance industry and securities markets.
It's also an area rich with interested parties who contribute heavily to political campaigns. That's partly why Crapo has amassed such a huge campaign war chest – more than $5.1 million in cash on hand as of the close of the last reporting period.
In addition, the same interests have contributed to Crapo's political action committee, the Freedom Fund, which has raised millions and hands out big donations to other Senate candidates and state and national Republican Party committees.
According to the Center for Responsive Politics, the top five interests that have contributed to Crapo over his career are securities and investment; insurance; leadership PACs; commercial banks; and health professionals.
He said it's his commitment to "a free market and reducing government regulation" that draws those donors to his campaign.
"I am still advocating for the very same things I said I would in my very first campaign," he said.
Crapo has been the lead sponsor of 63 bills in the past six years. The most common topics were tax credits and deductions; restricting the Environmental Protection Agency or other federal agencies; health care; and tribal issues.
He also serves on the Indian Affairs Committee and the Environment and Public Works Committee. In the most recent session of Congress, he sponsored 29 bills, twice as many as Risch, his fellow Idaho senator.
But the more remarkable number is seven – the number of Crapo's bills signed into law in his most recent six-year term. That's come as Congress has been in one of its least productive periods in modern history.
Just this year, Crapo saw his Indian asset trust reform bill signed into law, which gave Native American tribes more autonomy over the management and use of their assets held in trust by the federal government. Also signed was Trevor's Law, a measure named after Boise resident and cancer survivor Trevor Schaefer that requires federal agencies to document and track childhood and adult cancer clusters.
Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., was Crapo's leading Democratic co-sponsor on the Indian trust asset bill. Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., joined him on Trevor's Law.
Still, he says he's willing to say no.
Crapo also has co-sponsored 730 bills and 130 amendments over the past six years.
The single vote that's drawn the most criticism may have been Crapo's vote in March 2015 in favor of a budget amendment sponsored by Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, that authorized creation of a "spending-neutral reserve fund relating to the disposal of certain federal lands." It passed 51-49.
He said it could have applied to exchanges or other moves that could be part of good land-management decisions. But sportsmen in Idaho decried the symbolism of the amendment and said Crapo could have blocked it. His Democratic challenger, Jerry Sturgill, has seized on the vote as a sign of how Crapo has changed.
Shaw said Crapo's public statements have grown more conservative as Capitol Hill has become more polarized.
"I wonder if he is trying to convince himself that he hasn't changed, that his rhetoric hasn't changed," he said.

#ElectionBurger breaks RocoMamas' records
Posted January 27, 2017 by retroviral
The sensational growth and success of the RocoMamas brand – both in South Africa and in key international markets – has seen the franchise grow from three to 50 stores in a matter of 18 months. Based on the brand's growth trajectory, the decision was made to appoint Retroviral as its lead creative agency in the second half of 2016, due to a symbiotic relationship in terms of ideation and communication approach.
For its first campaign for the brand, Retroviral recently collaborated with Tribeca Public Relations to launch the irreverent RocoMamas #ElectionBurger campaign that saw the burger chain's sales increase 20% year-on-year, making it the most successful campaign in the brand's three-year history.
Conceptualised by Retroviral, the six week #ElectionBurger campaign was launched at a media, influencer and RocoMamas fan event where guests were introduced to the three official burger contenders on the campaign trail – #TheDonald, #TheHillBill, and #TheJoker.
Communication of the #ElectionBurger campaign was primarily driven through digital media, public relations and of course, positive word of mouth. The nature of these communication channels made it easy for RocoMamas to measure its return on investment: not only did #ElectionBurger trend nationally on Twitter within two hours of the launch, the RocoMamas Facebook page grew by 20 000 fans in just six weeks.
RocoMamas fans voted for their favourite burger candidate by posting a photo of their burger of choice on Twitter or Instagram, along with the hashtag assigned to it. The campaign yielded 14 million 'opportunities to see' on Twitter over its six weeks, with the thousands of votes on both platforms, RocoMamas' reputation as the most Instagrammed burger in South Africa was further cemented.
Interest in the brand exploded. The number of unique visitors to the RocoMamas website hit 57,000 unique visitors – a 70% increase year-on-year. And it wasn't only local burger fans who voted by visiting branded pages and sites. The #ElectionBurger was such hot property that it made global news on BBC World, Ads of the World, and made it onto the front page of Reddit.com, which is read by 200 million people each month.
Beating its competitors from the get go, #TheJoker burger's final tally of Instagram and Twitter votes as well as total sales during the campaign saw it win the hearts and minds of RocoMamas' voters far and wide. #TheDonald came a close second, with #TheHillBill bringing up the rear (foreshadowing what was to come in the US election results).
"Both agencies played to each other's strengths," says Mike Sharman, co-founder of Retroviral. "Together we drove the #ElectionBurger social conversation, developed content, and managed media interviews, influencer engagement and burger tastings. Everything was perfectly timed to coincide with the results of the US elections which culminated in the announcement of the #TheJoker as the campaign winner. A sign of the times!"
"The success of the RocoMamas #ElectionBurger campaign proves that combining the best use of social media with traditional public relations achieves powerful, measurable results for a brand," says Nicky James, co-owner of Tribeca Public Relations.

Bicyclist Dies After Being Hit By Driver In Bushwick Hit-And-Run
Jen Chung
Modified Jul 1, 2017
Ben Fractenberg / DNAinfo
A bicyclist in Brooklyn who witnesses say was in a bike lane before being rear-ended by a driver on Friday morning died from his injuries.
Ronald James Burke, 32, died at Kings County Hospital after being found in Bushwick, near Central Avenue and Linden Street, with trauma to his head and body.
A witness told DNAinfo, "He was bleeding from the back of his head. He can't move. He was breathing heavily."
According to NYPD Highway District's Collision Investigation Squad's preliminary investigation, a 2005 Acura going south on Central Avenue with a green light hit Burke who was going east on Linden Street.
However, witnesses said that Burke was biking in the Central Avenue bike lane and was rear-ended by the driver. NYPD narratives of bicyclist fatalities are not necessarily always accurate.
The Acura's driver stayed until EMS arrived but fled before police arrived at the scene.

The White House: The History Of An American Idea, published by the White House Historical Association, will acquaint and delight history enthusiasts, scholars and casual readers alike. Highlighted by little known details about official and domestic life, The White House brings together the story of the architecture of the White House and the story of the first families and designers who shaped it. Just as the American presidency is a unique office, so is the residence of the holder of that office. The White House: The History Of An Idea weaves together a story of constant change — architectural, social and political.
"Although built in the experimental years of the new nation and altered over the more than 200-year history, the White House remains the natural symbol of the American presidency and perhaps the best-known residence in the world. The history of the house is a story of survival and growth that parallels that of the nation it has come to symbolize," writes author William Seale.
Designed by Irish-born architect James Hoban and built by Scottish stonemasons, the house required preservation efforts fewer than 25 years after its construction. Burned to a smoke-blackened shell by the British in 1814, the house was rebuilt, later to be threatened with replacement but retained, condemned to destruction but made new. Many of the presidents hired architects and made changes both large and small.
The White House offers a rare glimpse of long-vanished interiors and the discarded contributions of such giants of American architecture and design as Benjamin H. Latrobe, Thomas U. Walter, Louis Comfort Tiffany, and Charles F. McKim. Illustrations include drawings and photographs from the Historic American Building Survey as well as a large selection of historical plans, prints, and photographs, many never brought together in one volume.
William Seale is a historian, writer, and restorer of historic buildings. He has served as White House historian for the White House Historical Association, the National Park Service and as curator of American Culture at the Smithsonian Institution. He has taught at Columbia University, the University of South Carolina, and Lamar State University. He received his M.S. and Ph.D.degrees from Duke University.
The White House Historical Association was established in 1961 as a non-profit organization to enhance the understanding, appreciation and enjoyment of the White House. All proceeds from the sale of this book and other association products are used to fund acquisitions of historic furnishings and artwork for the permanent White House collection, assist in the preservation of the public rooms and further its educational mission.

Dinosaurs Had Wings Long Before They Could Fly
"The first wings may have been advertising billboards."
Wikimedia / Durbed
Jacqueline Ronson
Stephen Brusatte, a paleontologist with the University of Edinburgh, thinks it's time to change the way we think about the evolution of flying birds.
In an article published Thursday in Science, he argues that dinosaurs evolved wings and feathers long before they could fly, experimenting flight in ways that were very different from those of modern birds. "The more fossils we find, the more it seems like a whole bunch of small, feathered, winged theropods closely related to modern birds were experimenting with different types of flight," he tells Inverse by email.
Rewind 170 million years. We are in the Jurassic Period, 100 million years before the rise of the Tyrannosaurus rex. There's a group of small, carnivorous dinosaurs called the coelurosaurian theropods running around after even smaller prey. It's from this group that birds rose up, though not in a linear way. Not all of them evolved towards flight, and those that did took different paths to get there. What made this diverse group of flapping birds and proto-birds possible is that they already had the basic structures necessary for flight, although entirely by accident, as these features evolved for different purposes altogether. "They had the body and biology perfectly suited for flight — they were small, they had wings, they could grow fairly fast and probably had a high metabolism, and those were the right cocktail of ingredients to begin playing around in the air," Brusatte says.
It's not a chicken and egg situation -- wings and feathers came before birds. Science / Brusatte
A treasure trove of new fossil evidence, particularly from China, has shown that dinosaurs had feathers long before they could fly. They started as hair-like filaments, which became soft, downy feathers, and then stiff, plumaceous feathers. "The fact that pennaceous feathers first show up in fairly large theropods — about the size of a horse — that couldn't fly is provocative evidence that these feathers didn't evolve for flight," says Brusatte.
Stranger still, some dinosaurs grew full, feathered wings that had nothing to do with flying. Ornithomimus, for one, looked a bit like an ostrich and probably ran very fast but certainly could not have flapped its small wings fast enough to get any lift. "The first wings may have been advertising billboards — big sheet-like display structures used to attract mates and intimidate rivals," Brusatte suggests. "Modern birds use their wings (and the pennaceous feathers that make up the wings) for many things other than flight — display, for instance. If I had to make a gut call, I would say that pennaceous feathers and wings probably evolved for display, and then later were co-opted as airfoils for flight."
Remember Psittacosaurus, that weirdly adorable little dino unveiled last year in all its realistically colored glory? It had a strip of spiky tail bristles that most certainly weren't for flying.

Perhaps the strangest data point in this story of bird evolution is a little creature named Yi qi. This was a small theropod that arose about 160 million years ago in what is now China, and it had bat wings — a membrane of skin stretched between fingers that may have been used to glide down from tree branches. "The very different anatomy of Yi's wing tells us that it was evolving flight independently of other dinosaurs," says Brusatte. "It was a separate experiment in taking to the sky."
What this all means is that it's no longer safe to assume that feathered, winged creatures that look like birds could fly, or had ancestors that could fly, or were on an evolutionary track in the direction of powered flight. When the asteroid hit 66 million years ago and wiped out nearly all the dinosaurs, there would have been a great diversity of winged flappers — some who flew, some who glided, and some who stayed firmly planted on the ground.
"All dinosaurs other than birds went extinct at the K-Pg [extinction event,]" Brusatte says. "But, we also have to remember that many birds — most birds, actually — went extinct as well. So maybe modern-style birds were just lucky. Or maybe they did have one or more features of their skeleton, or of their biology or growth, that helped them make it through. The ability to eat seeds is one idea, or maybe they could fly better, or faster, or farther than other birds. Or maybe they grew faster or had higher metabolisms. Ultimately, we don't quite know."
Brusatte contends that it will take more than new fossil discoveries to answer the remaining mysteries of the evolution of flight. He wants to see engineers get into the game, building biomechanical models of known winged dinosaurs to see how they fare in wind tunnel experiments, and computer models to evaluate their anatomical capacity for flight. It's an open challenge: "Surprisingly, there is very little work in this area right now."


Join RenegadeEnsemble for a special music performance with German sound artist Robert Stokowy.
From the artist's website: "[Coffee Rings] consists of relief prints that were produced by the artist. Following a written score, specifically framed for the production of this series, monotypes were made as part of an ongoing research process. I investigated the sonic potential of forms that result from indetermined production. The visual artifact becomes a silent sonic piece while it also can be read and interpreted as a visual score for further productions (sound installations, performances in dance & sound). Here the circularity of the score is used as a chance to entering [german: eindringen - to get through, to reach, to urge] the form in order to explore its structure's inner details."

Guardians of the Galaxy is an upcoming American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics superhero team of the same name, produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. It is intended to be the tenth installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film is directed by James Gunn, who wrote the screenplay with Nicole Perlman, and features an ensemble cast including Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper, Lee Pace, Michael Rooker, Karen Gillan, Djimon Hounsou, John C. Reilly, Glenn Close, and Benicio del Toro. In Guardians of the Galaxy, Peter Quill forms an uneasy alliance with a group of extraterrestrial misfits who are on the run after stealing a coveted orb.
Producer Kevin Feige first publicly mentioned Guardians of the Galaxy as a potential film in 2010, and Marvel Studios announced that the film was in active development at the San Diego Comic-Con International in July 2012. Gunn was hired to write and direct the film that September. In February 2013, Pratt was hired to play Peter Quill / Star-Lord, and the supporting cast was filled out over the next several months. Filming began in July 2013 at Shepperton Studios, England with filming continuing in London before wrapping up in October 2013. Post-production completed on July 7, 2014. The film is scheduled to be released on August 1, 2014 in the United States, and will be released in 3D and IMAX 3D.


Hi there, Toi here. I'm back to share another new release with you today. This is one for the teen and adult book lovers of the world. It's an opinion piece I've written to shed some light on book reviewing culture.
Check out these two, variant mock-up covers that didn't make the cut as you enjoy this excerpt.
"I have this theory that if people treated book reviews like food reviews, we'd have more of them. Of course, I do understand that while everyone eats, not everyone reads. I also recognize that eating is a basic human need, and that reading is a form of entertainment, a tool of education and development, and a method of rehashing or discovering history. However, for those who love to read, books are usually a high priority. My question is, why not write book reviews?
When someone walks into a restaurant, they do so with the intention of spending money. In fact, I'd say it's more than an intention. People go to restaurants to pay for a meal, just as people go to theaters to pay to watch movies. After paying for their meal, people often feel compelled to let other people know that the food was good or bad, that the service was good or bad, and that the price and ambiance were balanced or unbalanced.
Ain't Nobody Got Time for Book Reviews © 2018 Toinette J Thomas, published as Toi Thomas.
If you liked this, please consider giving this book a look and check out my Lit Carnivale dream.
Great article, Toi, and one that hits close to home for all of us.
Today on #OurAuthorGang, author Toinette Thomas talks about book reviews and the non-fiction book, "Ain't Nobody Got Time For Book Reviews."
Oh my, so, so true! I only write reviews for books I like, and I feel like I'm always behind on them, LOL!
I get caught up some times, but I'm usually behind. For me, at least, getting caught up is important.
This is probably an accurate assessment of book reviews.
This is just a small snippet, there's more to it.
An Indie author who understands the importance of book reviews--I write one for every book I read.
That's awesome! Yay book reviewers!
This post reminded me I need to leave a review for your book! Ain't Nobody Got Time for Book Reviews is a thoughtful, well-reasoned book about book reviews and book review culture. I think you touch on some points in your book that would surprise the "average" reader. I definitely recommend this book to both authors and readers!
Thanks so much for saying that. I put a lot of thought in it and think it will appeal to people who do actually enjoy reading.

Anglican identities
May 29, 2012 June 5, 2020 peterwebster
This review first appeared in Reformation and Renaissance Review 7;1 (2005), 131-2. Whilst reading through it again, I was struck by how topical it remains, and indeed how far sharpened have been some of the questions of Anglican unity and identity the two books raise. They appear here with minor modifications.
Rowan Williams, Anglican Identities (London; Darton, Longman and Todd, 2004)
Edward Norman, Anglican Difficulties (London; Continuum, 2004)
Much work concerning Anglican identity has tended towards two centres of gravity. For many years, analysis of late Tudor and early Stuart religion accepted a straight-forward divide between consensual, moderate, 'English' Anglicans and doctrinaire, inflexible, disruptive Puritans. For a new generation of scholars from the 1980s, a new force of anti-Calvinists or Arminians became the grit in an otherwise harmonious Calvinist oyster. Alongside this replacement of one bi-polar paradigm with another, scholars such as Peter White, and most recently Judith Maltby have sought to carve out a distinctive middle way for nascent Anglicanism, and one less dependent on rival theologies of grace. Anglican identity is to be found in attachment to the Book of Common Prayer and to the rituals and rites of passage of the now genuinely national church.
At the same time, a more present-minded historical approach has been somehow to attempt to capture the spirit or 'genius' of Anglicanism; to divine what the Church of England's secret is that allows it to hold seemingly wildly divergent groups together in the late twentieth century. Bishops and historians, Stephen Sykes, Stephen Neill and John Booty among them have tried to explain how a church, hybrid in its formation and almost pathologically reticent in defining itself, has managed to survive.
The two works under review here both attempt to contribute to the latter debate by means of the former, whilst coming to very different conclusions. The present Archbishop of Canterbury, in a collection of occasional papers and lectures, seeks to explore the loci of Anglican identity, whilst acknowledging the difficulty of the task by the plural of the title. The core Williams locates is not a legislative, ecclesiological one, nor an attachment to ritual. Neither is it to be found in distinctively Anglican doctrines of, say, pre-destination or the Eucharist. It is rather in an attitude to epistemology and a mode of theological engagement with the notion of truth. When faced with the task of engaging with the work of God, Anglicans have been characterised by an attitude of 'passionate patience' whilst faced by 'immensities of meaning … in the wake of a divine action which defies summary explanation. They take it for granted that the believer is always learning, moving in and out of speech and silence in a continuous wonder and a continuous turning inside-out of mind and feeling.' Lest this might suggest a creeping relativism, Williams' passionately engaged seekers after the truth of God would assent to the immutability of that truth, whilst remaining reticent about definitive pronouncement about it.
Each of the essays here is lucid and judicious, making some demands on the reader but with ample reward. For specialists in the English Reformations, the pieces on William Tyndale, Richard Hooker and George Herbert are rich and suggestive. Hooker, so often appropriated as exemplary of every shade of Anglican opinion, emerges here as a 'contemplative pragmatist', steering a painstaking course between ecclesiastical authoritarianism and creeping scepticism. Williams' evocation of Herbert's perseverance in the face of his Afflictions is the clearest example of the type of 'passionate patience' he delineates in the Introduction.
It is in the treatment of these figures as exemplary of a distinctive Anglican approach that an objection arises, although perhaps not one that could ever have been met in a volume of occasional papers such as this. If these are indeed Anglicans avant la lettre, then it may be concluded that the Church of England was not Anglican for perhaps 150 years after its formation. It is difficult to imagine John Jewel or Edmund Grindal, William Laud or Lancelot Andrewes, George Abbot or William Perkins easily fitting this template. It would also be necessary to show a continuity in thought over the two centuries here between Herbert and the next subject, B.F. Westcott, to decide whether such passionate patience is a abiding characteristic of Anglicanism, or a product of more modern and post-modern circumstances. It would be a shame if such a subtle collection as this were unintentionally to fuel an uncritical reading-back of modern Anglican self-fashioning into earlier periods. It is however, perhaps an occasion for optimism that the occupant of the see of Canterbury has sufficient intellectual range to deal with Tyndale and John A.T. Robinson in the same volume, and all the pieces here reward repeated reading.
For Edward Norman, retiring Chancellor of York Minster, Fellow of Peterhouse and former Reith lecturer, there is rather less ambiguity in the sources of identity in the Church of England. For Norman, such musing on identity would be so much rearranging of deck-chairs on a rapidly sinking ship, as the Church of England has no core. The Roman Catholic church in England is better placed to withstand the storms of secular humanism and religious consumerism is that it has a clear sense of its own nature. The problem for Norman is one of ecclesiology, and its roots are traced directly back to the Reformation. By cutting itself off from the historic church and ecumenical councils, the Church of England was left without any universal consensus fidelium to which to appeal, and its erastian polity made impossible the development of any alternative means of defining doctrine. These incompatibilities, submerged for a while by emphasis on the Protestant nature of the church and by universal use of the Book of Common Prayer, were exposed successively by Tractarian revival in the nineteenth century and secularisation in the twentieth. The impulse to accommodate difference, to value unity over clarity, is an Anglican hallmark for Norman as well as for many other commentators. The difference is that it is for Norman symptomatic of the incapacity of the church to formulate doctrine at all. If Norman is right, it will also prove the church's downfall within a generation.
Readers will draw their own conclusions as to which of these visions of Anglican identity promises most, but their simultaneous appearance affords an opportunity to compare divergent uses of the Reformation past in the contemporary church, and may profitably be read by those interested in either.

Tile kin discovered at ancient temple grounds
A kiln used to bake roof tiles of Toshodaiji temple more than 1000 years ago was discovered at Toshodaiji temple complex, Nara prefecture, Japan.
Site of the kiln (by Kazushige Kobayashi)
Toshodaiji was founded in 759 by Ganjin (688-763), a high-ranking monk from China's Tang Dynasty, as a place to impart Buddhist disciplines and teachings. The kiln measures measuring 4.2 meters by up to 2.2 meters, were excavated from under the "mieido" building north of the centre of the temple. The discovery offers new insight on the craftsmanship that went into creating the structures of the complex. According to researchers of Archaeological Institute of Kashihara, the kiln was likely used for the roof tiles of the "kondo" main hall and other structures in the temple complex between the late Nara Period (710-784) and early Heian Period (794-1185). According to Michio Maezono, the tile kiln was likely set up on the temple grounds during the final stage of construction of the kondo, east pagoda and other buildings. As Toshodaiji is not a large publicly commissioned temple, so those facilities could have been erected gradually over dozens of years.

Q: Add a button in Manipulate to execute a bookmark animation? I am writing a Manipulate with a set of bookmark animations.   Below is a simple toy example.  However, rather than having to select the "+" icon and select the "Animate bookmarks" to run the animation, I would prefer to add a button in the control list to duplicate exactly the function of `Animate bookmarks'.  As you can see by running the example below, Animate bookmarks animates a set of controls in a continuous fashion through their range of definition as an animation.  Is this possible and if so could someone help me set this up or perhaps direct me to info about doing this?
Manipulate[
 Plot[a + b x + c x^2 + d x^3, {x, -1, 1}, PlotRange -> 2],
 {{a, 1}, 0, 1}, {{b, 0}, 0, 1}, {{c, 1}, 0, 1}, {{d, 0}, 0, 1},
 Bookmarks -> {"frame1" :> (a = 1; b = 0; c = 1; d = 0),
   "frame2" :> (a = 0; b = 0; c = 1; d = 0),
   "frame3" :> (a = 0; b = 1; c = 1; d = 0),
   "frame4" :> (a = 0; b = 1; c = 0; d = 0)
   }
 ]

You can just not use Bookmarks in first place, and just add buttons to run the specific frames.
If you have many frames, this can be easily changed to have a pull up menu used to first select the frame of interest, then have just one button to run the selected frame.

Manipulate[
 Plot[a + b x + c x^2 + d x^3, {x, -1, 1}, PlotRange -> 2],
 {{a, 1}, 0, 1},
 {{b, 0}, 0, 1},
 {{c, 1}, 0, 1},
 {{d, 0}, 0, 1},
 Grid[{
   {Button[Text@Style["frame 1", 10], {a = 1; b = 0; c = 1; d = 0},
     ImageSize -> {60, 30}],
    Button[Text@Style["frame 2", 10], {a = 0; b = 0; c = 1; d = 0},
     ImageSize -> {60, 30}],
    Button[Text@Style["frame 3", 10], {a = 0; b = 1; c = 1; d = 0},
     ImageSize -> {60, 30}],
    Button[Text@Style["frame 4", 10], {a = 0; b = 1; c = 0; d = 0},
     ImageSize -> {60, 30}]
    }}, Spacings -> {.2, 0}, FrameStyle -> Gray]
 ,
 TrackedSymbols :> {a, b, c, d}
 ]

Update
I thought OP wanted just the frames shown.
This runs animation using a button. Speed of animation can be controlled by another buttons.

Manipulate[
   Which[state == "init", a = 1; b = 0; c = 1; d = 0; state = "running",
          state == "running",
              Which[a > incr, a -= incr,
                 b < (1 - incr), a = 0; b += incr,
                 c > incr, b = 1; c -= incr,
                 d < (1 - incr), c = 0; d += incr,
                 True, d = 1; state = "stop"
           ]
    ];
   Plot[a + b x + c x^2 + d x^3, {x, -1, 1}, PlotRange -> 2]
   ,
   {{a, 1}, 0, 1},
   {{b, 0}, 0, 1},
   {{c, 1}, 0, 1},
   {{d, 0}, 0, 1},
   Grid[{{Button[Text@Style["Animate", 10], {state = "init"},
     ImageSize -> {60, 30}],

    Button[Text@Style["Reset", 10], {state = "stop", a = 1, b = 0,
      c = 1, d = 0, incr = 0.01}, ImageSize -> {60, 30}],

    Button[Text@Style["Slower", 10],
     incr = If[incr > 0.001, incr - 0.001, incr],
     ImageSize -> {60, 30}],

    Button[Text@Style["Faster", 10], incr += 0.001,
     ImageSize -> {60, 30}]
       }}, Spacings -> {.2, 0}, FrameStyle -> Gray]
    ,
    {{state, "stop"}, None},
    {{incr, 0.01}, None},
     TrackedSymbols :> {a, b, c, d, state}
 ]

ps. I do not know how to call/invoke the built-in Animate bookmarks using a button from inside Manipulate itself. May be there is an undocumented way to do that.

A: Here's a way to get the "Animate Bookmarks" control into your manipulate:
Manipulate[
 Plot[a + b x + c x^2 + d x^3, {x, -1, 1}, PlotRange -> 2], {{a, 1},
  0, 1}, {{b, 0}, 0, 1}, {{c, 1}, 0, 1}, {{d, 0}, 0, 1}, Dynamic[
  dummy = Manipulate`BookmarksAnimator[
     Hold@Typeset`specs,
     Typeset`bookmarkList,
     Dynamic@Typeset`animvar,
     Automatic,
     {1.5, True}
     ] /.
    Animator[var_, rng_, opts___] :>
     Animator[var, rng, AnimationRunning -> False, opts]
  ],
 {reset,
  With[
    {res = Manipulate`Dump`reset},
    Button["Reset", res; Typeset`animvar = 1]
    ] &},
 Bookmarks -> {
   "frame1" :> (a = 1; b = 0; c = 1; d = 0),
   "frame2" :> (a = 0; b = 0; c = 1; d = 0),
   "frame3" :> (a = 0; b = 1; c = 1; d = 0),
   "frame4" :> (a = 0; b = 1; c = 0; d = 0)
   }
 ]

This works by directly invoking the relevant functionality from Manipulate itself. As such, it will behave exactly the same, and can automatically process normal bookmark specifications.
Some notes:

*

*The entire Dynamic@... expression is treated as a custom control for Manipulate. As such, you can change where it appears in the list of controls, etc.

*The Automatic argument controls the InterpolationOrder setting of the resulting interpolation that moves through the bookmark states.

*The 1.5 controls the speed of the animation: It gives the transition duration between bookmarks in seconds.

*The True controls whether the values of the variables should be clipped to their allowed ranges (the interpolation might overshoot depending on the interpolation order)

*After constructing the Animator control responsible for the animation, I apply a replacement rule to insert custom options. This allows us e.g. to set the initial state to not running (as done above).

*The reset variable construct is a trick to get the value of Manipulate`Dump`reset, which contains all the initial states of the manipulate variables. After we capture it, we construct a button that evaluates that variable, and also set Typeset`animvar to 1 (this corresponds to the first bookmark, 2 would be the second etc.). Alternatively, you can also just create a "normal" button and set the variables to whatever you want, and then just include Typeset`animvar = ...

*The Typeset`* variables are "magic" variables in the sense that they access the variables created by Manipulate for the bookmark animation functionality. They will be replaced by the relevant DynamicModule variables when displaying the Manipulate

*The dummy = ... assignment is required. It doesn't matter what the variable is called, as long as there is one. This is needed to work around a "bug" within the Manipulate`BookmarksAnimator code that stores a variable in a Module variable instead of a DynamicModule variable. Consequently, the variable is usually deleted after the Module (thanks to the Temporary attribute). Assigning the result of the entire thing to a variable prevents this cleanup.


Now measure the width (including the overhang, you desire) of the countertops.
If you want to include a back-splash multiply the length along the wall by 4 inches (the industry default is 4", unless otherwise specified).
If you have an island or a bar top you need to measure the length times the width, to arrive at the square feet area.
