Garlic Breeding System Innovations2007 •
This review outlines innovative methods for garlic breeding improvement and discusses the techniques used to increase variation like mutagenesis and in vitro techniques, as well as the current developments in florogenesis, sexual hybridization, genetic transformation and mass propagation. Sexual sterility of garlic reduces its potential for improvement of desired traits. Restoring fertility in this crop, which has been vegetatively propagated for millenia, provides new genetic possibilities for breeding purposes and/or genetic studies. In this context the recent developments on the manipulation of garlic florogenesis are discussed and it is shown that specific environmental conditions might allow for fertility restoration and seed production in bolting garlic. Furthermore the introduction of Agrobacteriummediated and biolistic gene transfer systems in garlic, a species known for its recalcitrant behaviour in in vitro culture, are reviewed. Attention is paid to the development of a high quality callus year-round production method for transformation. Also the first garlic transgenics resistant to beet armyworm (Spodoptera exigua) and herbicides will be introduced. Garlic friable embryogenic calluses are of pivotal importance for the establishment of cell suspension cultures needed for rapid multiplication of elite garlic genotypes. The development of these suspension cultures are discussed in this review. It is shown that a large number of somatic embryos (potentially 8 x 10 9 to 10 11) can be produced annually, from a single clove, for each current variety and that the conversion into plantlets amounts approximately 50%.

NAUTCH GIRLS: The Hidden Gems of Indian Dancing History with Special reference to Kathak Dance2022 •
Nautch Girls were a unique class of Courtesans who played a significant role in the society during the 18th -19th centuries in India. They were - a dancer, singer, performer, and occasionally a provider of sexual favors. But in the whole context, they were the preserver of dance. They embodied a delightful blend of various dance styles, including both classical and popular dance, making numerous appearances throughout the ages. The paper is an attempt to give an account of the journey of a dancing girl and their transition from Apsara to the Nautch Girls who were the real hereditary women dancers of what we see today as Kathak dance.
Peaceable Witness among Muslims
"Peaceable Witness" chapters 8 & 91999 •
While seeking to revise my book "Peaceable Witness among Muslims" (1999) I am sharing two chapters with readers of the periodical called "Seedbed." It's been almost 25 years since the book's publication and I am reflecting on my presentation, trying to take stock on how it has worked out in thought and practice. The chapters posted here formed the heart of my distinctive contribution out of a peace church background and lively experience of a strong, orthodox Muslim majority culture.
The article delves into galleys as omnipresent warships in the medieval Mediterranean. It analyses their performance, propulsion, sailing mode, and behavior on choppy seas. The paper elaborates on the craft's freeboard, wintering, and provisioning. The concluding chapter sums up the storyline.

QUAND L'HISTOIRE FAIT SON CINEMA Un film réalisé sur la guerre de Vendée, contre les manifestations du Bicentenaire de la Révolution française, est l'occasion de montrer les différentes utilisations de l'Histoire par des hommes de spectacle, par des politiques, par les habitants de la région et surtout par les journalistes, dont les textes composent la documentation étudiée. Par les mots employés dans la presse, différentes intrigues historiques se déploient, se télescopent dans une fabrication de l'histoire qui est peut-être la façon d'être de l'Histoire.
