	Where Have All the Flowers Gone?
		I understood the flowers' role of support for us in the past, and the increased levels of support and inspiration they offer us today through their essences as inspiration for our healing individually and globally.
		Flower essences are generally taken in oral form; a few drops, one to several times a day, and can also be added to baths or applied to environments via sprays.
		Though the specific conflict may change, the energies of war and its aftermath are likely to remain with us for some time, and well as the need for inner peace for individuals.

	Colombia Flower Exports
		During the 1980's, authorities repeatedly seized cocaine hidden in flower crates arriving at Miami's airport, and American growers complained that their Colombian competitors were receiving unfair subsidies from narco-traffickers.
		Colombia is the South Korea of flower exporters, having doubled foreign sales to $200 million in the 1980s by producing efficiently pioneering distribution through supermarkets.
		Flower importers, who have been paying counter-dumping fees of 4.4 percent since 1987 against an adverse final ruling in the case, now fear that the department will force them to pay tens of millions in duties on roses sold over the past year.

	The Republic :: The Culture Wars become the Flower Wars
		Flower Wars were among the most important method of obtaining sacrificial victims.
		These wars were ritual battles between rival Aztec armies, and were designed to produce the fewest number of casualties and the greatest number of captives possible.
		The culture war, like a flower war, is meant to thin the ranks of the people who trigger these feelings.

	Environmentalists Against War
		The report says war costs are expected to continue to grow in the next decade.
		Even if U.S. forces were reduced from 258,000 today in Iraq, Afghanistan and other military operations around the globe related to the war on terrorism to 74,000 by 2010, the Congressional Budget Office estimates that war costs would still grow by $371 billion from fiscal year 2007 to fiscal year 2016.
		The Pentagon had hoped to reduce its troop presence in Iraq to fewer than 100,000 by the end of this year, but military commanders are planning to keep at least 140,000 troops there through the spring because of the high level of violence.

	Human Flower Project
		With flowers bright as the rind of tangerine, Ashoka tree in bloom is a knockout.
		Plant genealogies are usually figured out via the DNA of chloroplasts (the flower parts that turn sunlight into energy), but Rafflesia, a parasite, has no chloroplasts—it sucks nutrients out of its host, a jungle vine, instead, so scientists hadn’t been able to place this strange tropical plant into a botanical family until now.
		The views (and we suppose the flowers, too) of inner city Minneapolitans are different from those in the Minneapolis suburbs, and from those in Green Bay and Duluth, though all live in a “Blue State.” That’s because politics, like gardens, thrive in microclimates.

		Colombian roses are soon to be at the center of a budding trade war.
		U.S. flower growers who have suffered huge losses over the past decade are battling against a complete renewal of the act.
		Most Colombian flower farms are located in the savannas near Bogota, far from the mountainous regions in the southeastern provinces where most of Colombia's coca is grown, and where the Colombian military routinely blankets fields with the mass aerial spraying of herbicides, flying high to avoid rebel gunfire.

	Human Flower Project
		At the 11th hour of the 11th month of the 11th day, Allied powers signed the Armistice with Germany in 1918, ending World War I. The moment will be remembered today in many countries, including Australia the U.S., and the United Kingdom.
		The traditional war memorial flower among the former Allies is, of course, the red poppy, papaver rhoeas.
		One of the most thoroughgoing and fine analyses of flower symbolism we’ve found is this superb essay by Stacy Chambless entitled “A Memorial in Scarlet." The article carefully documents poppy symbolism from ancient Greece to the current war in Iraq, with special emphasis on rites of remembrance.

	WEM 1/700 HMS Buttercup
		The story of the Flower Class corvettes begins with the realisation that Britain was lacking in ships capable of providing escort to convoys in the case of war.
		By war's end the Flowers had metamorphosed from a quaint-looking two masted, short foc's'led vessel with a pop-gun on the bow to a more purposeful and warlike vessel.
		I have long been interested in the Flower Class corvettes – ever since seeing an article in volume 1, issue 1 of the defunct Scale Ship Modeler on a large scale scratchbuilt one.

	SHADOWMARCH \| Preview
		A single flower, a hellebore, stood in a vase of volcanic glass in the middle of the huge desk, glowing almost radioactively white in the pool of a small, artful spotlight.
		Both snow and the flower itself were unlikely to have been found in the Holy Land in those days, but that has never hurt the story's popularity.
		He stared at the spotlit flower, letting his thoughts wander down some of the darker tracks of his labyrinthine mind, and waited, patient as stone, for the figure behind the desk to speak.

	A progressive's Art of War
		War is usually the last refuge of the incompetant or the first resort of the insane or psychopathic.
		A covert state of perpetual war (while overtly professing a desire for peace) is essential to the existence of the USA as it is currently constituted.
		Anybody trying to oppose this State of War in any serious way (I dont mean just waving placards on the street against a particular war – I mean any attempt to modify or terminate the fundamental setup) is neutralised or removed by whatever means is neccessary, as were JFK and Nixon.

	The New American - Feeding the God of War - September 9, 2002 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		For that reason war was a form of worship and a necessary activity that led them to establish the Xochiyaoyotl, or ‘flower war.’ Its purpose, unlike that of wars of conquest, was not to gain new territories nor to exact tribute from conquered peoples, but rather to take prisoners for sacrifice to the sun.”
		Concealing themselves behind a barricade of flowers, the treacherous leaders would witness the consummation of their betrayal as their armies were taken away to serve as fodder for Aztec altars.
		Confronting the prospect of a pointless resumption of the UN-mandated war with Iraq, and an open-ended “war on terrorism,” Americans must understand that these conflicts are fundamentally no different from the “Flower Wars” of Aztec antiquity: Ritualized bloodshed through which an embedded ruling elite retains its hold on power.

	About the NEHS - Harrogate Flower Shows
		During the Second World War the NEHS's activities were virtually suspended, although they did compile and publish a "Dig for Victory" pamphlet and many thousands of copies of this were distributed gratuitously throughout the war years.
		The early post war years were a time of austerity and restrictions, so it was not until April 1947 that the first post-war Spring Flower Show was staged in the Sun Pavilion in the Valley Gardens.
		A Flower Academy, which was first held in the Old Swan Hotel in 1953, was introduced into the Spring Show in the Valley Gardens in 1956 and became the forerunner of the magnificent Flower Arrangement and Floristry Marquee we know today.

		This grew to outright demand from Hitler to annex the area, and threatened war against the advice of his Generals who were sure Germany was not ready to stand up in a World War.
		The Conference lasted two days, fearing another war and in the most infamous case of appeasement, the Sudetenland was turned over to Germany.
		It played key role in the Polish campaign, and in the final battles of the war when it was stubbornly defended by German troops.

		The Allies, wishing to avoid war at almost any cost, stood idly by when Austria was annexed, gave in to his demands in Czechoslovakia, and allowed the return of the Memel district.
		A series of Medals, known as the "Flower War medals", were created to commemorate the three historic occupations.
		They commemorate, however, the troubling road that led to War, and they hung from the chests of the men who took place in these events.

	Amazon.ca: War Of The Flowers: Books: Tad Williams (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The war of the title is one of numerous factions fighting among themselves, and with it, Williams darkly satirizes every sort and condition of politics, ideology, religion, and other human foibles, much as he did in the Otherland saga.
		The faerie lords are at war, one of them has a pretty mischevious plan regarding the parallel world of humans and Theo, our unwilling human hero, is at the centre of the plot.
		All in all, War of the Flowers left me with a desire to explore more of Tad William's work.
