Carbon Transfer Printing is a book about one of the earliest
photographic processes that provided the first permanent printing
methods, available in one form or another for over 150 years. This
book reviews the extensive history of carbon transfer and related
pigment processes in both monochrome and color, to serve as point
source for a new carbon printer to begin to master the craft of
carbon printing, as well as provide new material for experienced
carbon printers so they can expand their techniques. The book
includes never-before-published information on pre-sensitizing
carbon tissue with newly identified compounds, information on the
safe use and disposal of hexavalent chromium compounds, and
simplified methods of producing 3-color carbon prints. Carbon
Transfer Printing is divided into two parts, illustrated with 175
photographs. Part One is a complete how-to on the carbon transfer
process, from simple to complex, with a troubleshooting guide and
an extensive chapter on digital negatives. Part Two is devoted to
contemporary carbon printers who share their methods and secrets to
creating their beautiful carbon prints. Topics that the book covers
are: Key events in carbon's history How to organize the carbon
workplace Sections on necessary supplies and equipment A
step-by-step digital method of making high quality digital
negatives Simple and advanced methods of carbon printing How to
make carbon tissue, including several methods of pre-sensitizing
How to choose UV light sources for printing in carbon Step-by-step
processing directions How to prepare final support papers
Troubleshooting carbon Multi-layer printing to add tone, or make a
full color carbon print Finishing and final presentation of carbon
prints A gallery of images and advice from contemporary carbon
printers Carbon Transfer Printing is designed for both the
beginning carbon enthusiast as well as for the advanced
practitioner. Backed with extensive research on carbon printing
from books, journals, and magazine articles from the 1800s to
present day, and the extensive personal experience in carbon
printing of the authors, there is enough information in this book
to provide inspiration and proof of both the glorious past of
carbon printmaking and its enduring importance to a new generation
of image makers who value the handmade print.

In March of 2000, Don and Jacque Nelson sat down to meditate
together, calling in guidance to answer the question of "What shall
we do with our lives?" Little did they know that this action would
dramatically and joyfully change their lives forever, resulting in
thousands of people throughout the world being immeasurably touched
and richly deepened by Mary's insights, love, and guidance. This
book provides an overview of these amazing and life-changing
teachings.
The state of Minnesota is in a world of hurt. Drug kingpins and
their minions secretly established their networks. The entire
state... flooded with heroin. The violent crime rate...sky
rocketed. ERs and morgues...crammed with heroin lovers. Bullets are
flying. Innocent bystanders...killed on the streets, and even in
their own back yards. No one feels safe. The media catches the
scent and reacts with a vengeance. With the heat on, the DEA sits
squarely on the hot seat. The boss gives veteran Special Agent Jake
Shaunessey a directive: Put your expertise to work. Clean up this
mess. Take the damned heat off. OR ELSE A very tall order, indeed.
Huge challenges confront Jake and his team. He plunges headlong
into the case. At first, some promise: Numerous leads come quickly.
But the disappointments come just as fast. Violence, havoc, or
corpses confront the agents at every turn. At the same time,
serious problems, both in the office and at home, plague his life.
Jake knows any one of them could shoot down the heroin
investigation. If that happens, the Land-of-10,000-Lakes, as
Minnesota is known, will become a murky cesspool, filled with
tragic headlines and dead bodies. Finally: A break. Jake probes
deep into the bowels of the heroin ring. More blood spills. But
this time it's his.
Here, for the first time, canoeists and kayakers can find helpful
itineraries for exploring the large lakes of Yellowstone and Grand
Teton national parks. Information includes park regulations,
permits required, location of campsites, how to prepare for day or
overnight trips and proper safety.
