So many chores to do and so little time to get them done: it's the plight that many of us face on a daily basis. When it is not work clutter limiting our tiring minds, it is clutter at home, in the car and even from family. It's no wonder we sometimes believe that the calm and peace we crave is not attainable anymore due to our busy schedules. Yet with the proper plan of action, we all can clear away the unnecessary clutter in our lives and establish a sense of peace. Author Jennifer Dawson experienced her own battles with a cluttered house, intensified with being a newlywed and her mother's passing. However, she saw her clutter as a purposeful path in her life and became an expert in organization. Her new self-help book, The Clutter Explosion, assists readers in achieving a de-cluttered lifestyle once again with useful tips and principles to apply towards getting to the cause of the "stuff" accumulation. Using her acronym of C.R.A.P. to create a plan of action, Jennifer goes from rooms in the house, to the car, to the office, to people themselves to decide what needs to stay and what should go. The goal, as Jennifer states throughout the book, is to treat organization as an ongoing journey, one that is perfected with practice, time and effort. As the clutter disappears, peace will return and the willingness to stay in control of our environments will become a lifelong goal. Organization cannot be attained in a marathon cleaning session. The only way to truly deal with the clutter explosion is to apply small, incremental changes, and continue to make those changes day by day, step by step. Training for any sport involves regular practice and motivation -- organization is the same.

Beside me was a tree, one lone tree. That tree was locally famous because it was the only tree anywhere in that vicinity; yet its presence proved that once there had been a forest over most of that land-now treeless and waste. The farmers of a past generation had cleared the forest. They had plowed the sloping land and dotted it with hamlets. Many workers had been busy with flocks and teams, going to and fro among the shocks of grain. Year by year the rain has washed away the loosened soil. The hamlets in my valley below the Great Wall are shriveled or gone. Only gullies remain -a wide and sickening expanse of gullies, more sickening to look upon than the ruins of fire. You can rebuild after a fire. Can anything be done about it? Yes, something can be done. Therefore, this book is written to persons of imagination who love trees and love their country, and to those who are interested in the problem of saving natural resources-an absolute necessity...

The first comprehensive handbook on the seeds of trees and shrubs produced by the USDA Forest Service was USDA Misc. Pub. 654, Woody-Plant Seed Manual. The manuscript was ready for publication in 1941, but World War II delayed publication until 1948. The boom in tree planting in the 1950s and 1960s created a large demand for seeds and exposed the gaps in our knowledge concerning production and quality of seeds of woody plants in general. The 1974 Handbook proved to be very popular both in this country and abroad, leading to five printings and translations in several other languages. More than a quarter-century after its publication, however, numerous advances in tree seed technology have dictated that a new revision is needed; the result is the current volume. Part I contains information on how to get seeds and raise seedlings. Get Your Copy Now.
