I originally ordered this rug in blue. It is beautiful but the color is not as muted as it appears on the screen. I returned it and purchased this rug in black. I love it.

I originally ordered this rug in blue. The rug was delivered very quickly and it was beautiful. However, the color is different than the color appears online. No surprise there. It just didn't match my room very well. However, I ordered the same rug in black and I love it. It is beautiful, came quickly and the return of the first rug was easy.

Peregrines on the Clock Tower
June 2009
No Second Clutch
There is no second clutch of eggs despite courtship behaviour from both of the peregrines. They have been avoiding the original nest for some time now and are still using the second nest on the east side of the clock tower as a base.
The birds have been sitting in the more shady spots because of the hot weather we've been having recently (often, annoyingly, just out of sight of our scopes on City Hall Lawn!) but we've still been getting some great views of them.
A highlight of this past week was the pair tucking into a pigeon and at one point they both fought over it!
The adults will stay around for the whole of the summer and will continue to pose for the camera, which is providing high quality images of the peregrines and is giving us lots of fun with the windscreen wipers!!

Urban Fellows Program
Undergraduate students attending a Rochester-area college, and Rochester residents who attend college elsewhere, are encouraged to apply to the Urban Fellows Program, a unique ten-week summer program. Successful applicants will have a demonstrated interest in community or public service, urban issues, or other areas of civic engagement. Fellows receive stipends and housing at the University of Rochester for their service with community based organizations and agencies in the Rochester community.
The Urban Fellows Program emphasizes civic engagement, promotes learning about urban issues, and fosters an appreciation for cross-cultural issues and urban life. The components of the program include:
Summer Fellowships
Students are placed in a paid fellowship in agencies located in the City of Rochester. Fellowship placements are in a variety of fields, including health care, education, public safety, women's issues, economic development, youth, faith-based activity, and housing. While student interest will be considered, placements are based on the needs of community organizations. Projects that previous Fellows have undertaken include business recruitment and marketing plan creation for neighborhood commercial development; working on neighborhood issues alongside a City Councilperson; a study of end-of-life issues at an inner-city health facility; development and delivery of services for runaway and homeless teens; an arts program at a juvenile residential facility; and researching health care needs and the disparities in African American communities.
Urban Issues Workshops
Students attend daylong seminars mid-week led by faculty members and community leaders. The seminars are designed to inform Fellows about the history, politics, demographics, and sociology of urban systems, with particular attention to Rochester. Seminars are complemented by an experiential component that includes off-campus visit, conversations with community leaders, and group discussions regarding the strengths and challenges facing the Rochester area.
Community/Cultural Based Activities
Students are invited and encouraged to participate in the cultural events and activities of the City, including neighborhood festivals, neighborhood association meetings, and other recreational and cultural events. Many of these gatherings include weekend and evening participation. Some events will be mandatory.
End of Summer Symposium
With support from staff and faculty, students develop a presentation based on their readings and experiences, and present this work at a closing ceremony at City Hall. All community and college participants are invited for this celebration.
Wednesday, May 21, 2014-Tuesday, July 29, 2014 (dates are subject to change).
How- Students
Applications for the 2015 Urban Fellows program will be available by December, 2014 and will be due in March, 2015. If you have any questions about the program please contact Emma Rainwater in the Rochester Center for Community Leadership.
Embark on Summer of Community Engagement
An interest meeting schedule will be posted in the fall 2014 semester.
How- Host Sites
Applications for the 2015 Urban Fellows Program will be available for host sites by November, 2014 and will be due in February 2015.

Mahindra opens new tech center near Detroit
by Jeremy Korzeniewski (RSS feed) on Sep 23rd, 2012 at 2:01PM
You didn't think you'd heard the last from Mahindra, did you? Back in July of 2012, Mahindra confirmed that it had basically given up its quest to sell small diesel-powered pickup trucks in the United States. According to a report from TheDetroitBureau.com, however, the Indian automaker is now opening a technical center in Troy, Michigan, near Detroit. "Because of its ties to the automobile industry and motor sports, Detroit is known as the Motor City around the world.

Torn meniscus facts
- The knee is the largest joint in the body.
- Cartilage within the knee joint helps protect the joint from the stresses placed on it from walking, running, climbing, and bending.
- The medial and lateral menisci are two large C-shaped cartilages that sit on the top of the tibia.
- A torn meniscus occurs because of trauma caused by forceful twisting or hyper-flexing of the knee joint.
- Symptoms of a torn meniscus include pain, swelling, popping, and giving way.
- Treatment of a torn meniscus may include observation and physical therapy with muscle strengthening to stabilize the knee joint. When conservative measures are ineffective treatment can include surgery to repair the cartilage tear.

Creating and maintaining an online presence is an important part of your job search. Many people I speak with do not feel that it is necessary for them to have an online identity. However, it is not uncommon for potential employers to Google job applicants. Knowing this, it becomes more apparent why it is so important to have an online presence. When you are googled you want information that YOU want to appear to be there and wow your potential employer!
Creating an online presence does not mean you must suddenly join Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn all at once! If you are just interested in a strictly professional presence then LinkedIn is where you should be focusing your attention. LinkedIn is like a Facebook for professionals and offers a great way for you to network and keep in contact with that network. Maintaining and creating relationships with people in your field of interest is integral to you being successful in your job search and LinkedIn acts as a tool to enhance these networks and relationships.
LinkedIn allows you to highlight important work experience and gives you an ability to control what pops up if your name is googled. Having a LinkedIn profille pop up in google is better than having nothing appear at all!

NFPA 70®: National Electrical Code® (NEC®) Softbound, 2011 Edition

|Watch NFPA®'s interview with Donny Cook, Chief Electrical Inspector, Shelby County Department of Developmental Services, Shelby County, AL, to hear him discuss the 2011 NEC®.
"The NEC is truly everybody's Code. The NEC sets up a minimum basis for safety, and it reacts to the latest knowledge. If the general public understood how the latest NEC protects us all from electrical hazards, people would insist on it.
|Now that there are governmental incentives, more users will want to take advantage of these systems, and we need to ensure safety by making sure they're properly installed, inspected, and approved. The easy-to-use requirements in Article 694 help people make use of energy saving technologies.
Another timesaving solution in the 2011 NEC is the addition of new Article 399 containing prescriptive requirements for overhead distribution systems for large users. This allows designers, installers, and inspectors to conduct and approve an installation for non-utility-owned equipment based on the NEC. Time is money, and this expanded NEC coverage for premises wiring is extremely practical."
|Watch NFPA's interview with Jim Pauley, Vice President, Industry and Government Relations, Schneider Electric, to hear him discuss the benefits of NFPA 70: National Electrical Code®.
|Watch NFPA's interview with Donald Bliss, President & COO, NI2 Center for Infrastructure Expertise, to hear him discuss the benefits of the NEC, as well as its relation to NFPA 1600®: Standard on Disaster/Emergency Management and Business Continuity Programs.
James Carpenter states:
"Electrical professionals need to keep up with the ever-changing technology and requirements of the industry, and homeowners and building owners should know how the 2011 National Electrical Code protects lives and property from electrical hazards. The NEC strives to keep up with technology and new ways of doing things. For example, wind power and solar power are becoming more popular energy sources and the 2011 NEC provides rules and regulations to keep alternate energy systems safe. In my career as an electrical inspector, I've recognized the dangers of incorrect installation practices that have led to fires and or shock hazards. Following the latest NEC would alleviate these risks."
James Carpenter,
Retired CEO and Executive Director,
International Association of Electrical Inspectors (IAEI)
Susan Newman Scearce states:
"The NEC is THE key element in making our world a safer place to live, work, worship, and play. It's a daily tool in my role as an electrical inspector. The electrical industry unites together to guide, mentor, and revise the Code. We strive to apply it correctly to prevent tragedies rather than react to them. As a member of the International Association of Electrical Inspectors, I'm involved on a Code panel that examines the NEC from the enforcement, application, and utilization perspectives.
The 2011 NEC incorporates knowledge gained from many sources throughout the field -- and will improve Code users' ability to apply the rules with new definitions and expanded marking specifications. The 2011 Code improves safety with new requirements for field-marking equipment with available short-circuit current, a new exception added to working space about electrical equipment to address meter sockets, and expanded clarification of lighting source for working space. Without continuously developing the NEC, the electrical industry as a whole would be diminished in its effectiveness and ability to protect consumers. The 2011 NEC is the sole implement we need in our goal for electrical safety."
Susan Newman Scearce,
Deputy Electrical Inspector,
State of Tennessee
Jack Wells states:
"The NEC is important as a facilitator to ensure that new technologies -- with the purpose of making us less dependent on fossil fuels -- in fact can be used safely. Failure to adopt the National Electrical Code in its most recent edition may well present obstacles to implementing some of the national priorities we have to switch to renewable energy resources."

text: 4 Shaken but not stirred!!!ZOMBIENATIONZ | 24/11/2010 | See all ZOMBIENATIONZ's reviews (145)Top 100 Reviewer Top 100 Games Reviewer Even though this game has had a pretty good panning by the critics and reviews have not been great i like the Bond franchise, so thought what the heck lets give it a go.Im very glad i did.I actually enjoyed the first game "Quantum of Solace" and this is pretty much a similar one.The graphics are a step up from that release, but not a huge one.The one foot sections are good with some detailed levels and complex layouts, but varying detail on the textures.....some sections are awesome but others appear rushed with little detail which is disappointing.......for example the casino with its lovely night time views and marble floors are the opposite to some of Athens rough texture work.The vehicle sections are fun if a little frustrating to control at times......the graphics here seem to have had more care with good fx especially the water levels, there are some real standout moments like the hovercraft and highway chase scenes!Sound wise it is good although some of the speech seems a little muffled and low volume wise.The score by Richard Jacques deserves a mention as it captures the power of the best John Barry tracks, it really fits the bill here.Playability is strong with a good Bond vibe running through it, though think more modern gadget-less Bond than the old style.Multiplayer seems to have a good community with 3 online game modes, my favourite is the straight forward team deathmatch with levelling up on weapons and uniforms etc.It is a fun departure from the single player.Overall a good game which misses out on the 5 stars simply due to lazy programming around the graphics and lack of continuiety with them etc, with more work this could and should have looked a stunner given Bizarre Creations previous pedigree in FPS and driving games.Still though, its really strong and well worth a blast!!!!!

Hudson Valley
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The bye week proved to be just what the Giants needed. Riding a two game losing streak going into Sunday's game against the Packers, the Giants looked to grab a win at home.
The early minutes of the game looked like the night was going to be more of a shootout than blowout. After a rebuttal touchdown by Aaron Rodgers early in the first quarter, Green Bay would only score once more in the entire game.
The Giants, however, had themselves a night to remember and build on. Big Blue scored five times and kicked a field goal to win Sunday night 38-10. The running game showed some life, rushing for only 147 yards but two touchdowns.
Meanwhile, after struggling in his last three games to get the ball into the endzone, Eli Manning accounted for three passing touchdowns and 249 yards. Most importantly, he had zero turnovers. So far this year he's had 11 interceptions.
Hakeem Nicks, Victor Cruz, and Rueben Randle each had a receiving touchdown.
The Giants will look to keep the positive momentum going as they head to Washington next week for a division rival matchup.

Carrying A Torch For Columbia
Who would you say is Hollywood's most prolific actress? Who would you guess has appeared in the most motion pictures over the course of their career? A Golden Age star such as Bette Davis or Joan Crawford? One of the young talents who seem to be in almost every new film coming out? The answer may surprise you … but to get to that answer, we have to go back — far, far back. Let's start at 1919, although our journey will go further back still.
1919 saw the founding of Columbia Pictures in Hollywood, which was originally called Cohn-Brandt-Cohn Film Sales after its founders, brothers Harry and Jack Cohn and their partner Joe Brandt. The name never really stuck with the public and in 1924 the Cohns changed the name to Columbia Studios, after the female personification of the United States of America (seen at left in this World War I poster). Early Americans were familiar with this image of "Lady America" as she was represented in many paintings and newspaper editorial cartoons. She was eventually supplanted as the image of America in the 1920s with the growing popularity and appeal of the Statue of Liberty. The Cohn brothers wanted that same instant recognition for their films and had the studio artists design "their" Columbia with Lady Liberty's torch (seen below in their 1934 logo).
Here's where it gets sticky. In 1939, the logo was revised into the image we are all familiar with today. Many actresses have claimed to be the models for the early Torch Lady logo, among them Claudia Dell, Evelyn Venable, Dorothy Revier, Viola Dana and Amelia Batchelor (both Venable and Batchelor are listed as models in their IMDB credits). I favor the argument for Venable – although the studio never publicly acknowledged her as the model, the comparison photos in this article are pretty convincing proof: http://magazine.uc.edu/issues/0912/Venable.html
This logo was used up to 1976, when it went through a number of variations, due to a number of different corporations (including Coca-Cola) becoming partners with the studio. For a while the Torch Lady was gone entirely, to be replaced by just the expanding rays from her torch. That all changed in 1992, when the studio (which was now a subsidiary of Sony Pictures Entertainment) decided to go back to the classic logo, but reinvented for the new era. They chose New Orleans artist Michael Deas to create an image for the ages and the one that is still known today.
When Deas got the assignment, he interviewed a number of models for the new face of Columbia, but could not find exactly what he wanted. A friend at the local newspaper told him he had just the woman for the job, a graphic artist named Jenny Joseph. Deas met with her and agreed instantly – this was his Columbia. Jenny had never done any modeling, but was willing to give it a go. The entire session was done over her lunch hour, with Deas draping her in a sheet and having her hold a desk lamp from the office. The result was history. For more on their meeting and to see Jenny today, take a look at this recent news clip from 2012: http://www.wwltv.com/news/10pm-Hoss-Columbia-Pictures-Logo-Artist-176043361.html
So there is your answer … neither Bette Davis nor Joan Crawford nor any of today's starlets – the hardest-working actress in Hollywood is no actress at all, just a graphic artist who decided to pose as a lark over her lunch hour. The next time you go to the movies and see the Columbia logo appear, do what I do: quietly smile and wave to her and whisper, "Hi, Jenny!"

Happy Thanksgiving!
Holiday hours are posted here: revised schedule.
New to Krasker: A Place at the Table
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving –a day of celebration, family and, perhaps above all for many of us, FOOD! But it is also a time of year that people reach out to help those Americans in financial need who would otherwise be left out of the holiday repast. So today we are taking a moment to call your attention to an important recent acquisition to the Krasker Collection: the 2012 documentary A Place at the Table. Featuring actor Jeff Bridges, A Place at the Table takes a sobering look at poverty in the United States and the lack of access lower-income individuals have to nutrient-rich, unprocessed foods.
A Place at the Table may be booked by current Boston University faculty for screening in Boston University courses. BU students interested in screening A Place at the Table in-house at the Krasker facility should call us as 617-353-8112.

Show & Tell: Young Frankenstein
We at Krasker Talks! sure have the Halloween spirit today. On that note, our very own evening supervisor Dave Perkins is sharing with us a little piece of spooky-fun film history from his personal collection of film memorabilia: an original movie poster for Mel Brooks' 1974 masterwork Young Frankenstein. Being a film historian, I flipped when I saw what amazing condition it is in. The colors are remarkably vibrant because it has been stored away from strong lighting. So let that be a lesson to all would-be collectors! Posters are like vampires. You gotta keep them out of the sun.

Saturday, December 31, 2011, 01:59 PMJust taking a moment to reflect on the incredible year 2011 was for Twisted Sister fans. While all of the local news broadcasts are calling 2011 a year that many wish to forget, for so many SMFs, 2011 was a year we will remember forever.
This time last year, we were still flying high from the winter twisted trip to South America--a land where Heavy Metal still reigns supreme, and the people's passion for music is surpassed only by their warmth, kindness and love. I arrived as a scared fan, but departed as a part of a heavy metal family.
The Spring of 2011 gave us one of the best US shows (and setlists) to date--a spectacular charity concert for Ocular Immunology & Uveitis Research in New York City, coupled with the extraordinary Pinkburst Project auction in Boston, the following afternoon.
Nothing could have prepared us for the summer of 2011--a Twisted tour of Europe that would stretch across the UK, Spain, Hungary, Canada,Czech Republic, Greece, Finland and remarkably, Russia! (Still kicking myself for not getting the visa lined up in time!) Nothing could have been greater proof that while cultures, dialects and customs may vary, rock and roll is a universal language of the heart and soul.
For this fan, it was a dream come to true to travel to Greece, where the Twisted Sister fans proved to our Twisted five that Greece was well worthy of the two shows they received that year. Finland was a land full of hospitality and beauty, with a passion for Twisted Sister and heavy metal that was unsurpassed. Quebec City was magical, whimsical and dream-like. SMFs everywhere share that one common bond-- a love for Twisted Sister and glorious rock and roll!
If I leave this Earth with any regrets, it is only that I could not join the Twisted fans in the other counties that they visited---every single country that Twisted visited gave them a warm welcome, energetic crowds and allowed Twisted Sister to do what they do best--put on the best live heavy metal concert anywhere!
And so my babies, not knowing what 2012 will bring us, I can only wish all of you--the S.M.F. friends of Twisted Sister--all over the world, a year of good health, prosperity, personal growth, love and most of all, peace. May the year ahead bring us all together once more-- my deepest heartfelt thanks to everyone in the band, the road crew, the management and of course, the fans!
Happy New Year....and I hope to see you on the road in 2012

McLaren team principal Martin Whitmarsh has given Sergio Perez another confidence boost, saying he is moving in the right direction.
The Mexican didn't make the best of starts to life at McLaren, picking up only 12 points in the first five races. He was also accused by team-mate Jenson Button of being too aggressive.
Perez, though, put his head down and he has gradually improved in recent races.
"Checo is showing the intelligence and natural pace that we saw in him before," Whitmarsh said during a Vodafone phone-in.
"He is growing in confidence. He is very young and relatively inexperienced.
"To put himself into daunting place of being a McLaren driver, particularly when we haven't delivered a good enough car, there's been an enormous amount of pressure.
"He still has a lot to learn, he is still more than a decade behind Jenson and yon can't acquire that overnight, but I think he is working in the correct direction."
The inter-team rivalry at McLaren threatened to boil over after the Chinese Grand Prix when Button accused him of "dirty" driving and urged him to "calm down".
Whitmarsh believes Perez can learn a lot from team-ate Button, who has plenty of experience in the sport.
"He doesn't like being beaten either so they are going to fight in a correct and appropriate way," he said.
"Jenson is a tremendous benchmark, the ultimate professional with more than a decade of experience, very intelligent and quick.
"So [for Perez] to come into a new team, with a comparative lack of experience, if you're going to be a star of the future you have to beat your team-mate and he is getting stuck into that now."

Madrid, Spain
The moment I saw this amazing pattern I had to buy it! It's the perfect swimsuit: sexy, covering, flattering and with that retro vibe I love. I'm a curvy girl, so swimsuits aren't my favorite thing to wear, but this one is an exception.
Seriously, if you want to feel like a godess while enjoying the beach, try it. I was a bit scared since was my first time with spandex, but instructions are very detailed and everything went smoothly. The only alteration I did was taking in the bust, I guess I cut the wrong size.
1 meter spandex
1 meter lining
Swimsuit bra cups

I love this suit. Great job. Would like to find this pattern to make this suit for me. Where did you find this pattern?

Es precioso, Sara y además te queda espectacular. Llevo tiempo buscando un bañador estilo años 50 aunque lo tenía algo apartado ya que yo también tengo mis curvas y nunca imaginé que un bañador inspirado en esa época pudiera sentar tan bien. Es súper elegante, estiliza la figura y tiene el color y el estilo vintage que tan de moda están ahora. ¡Divino!
Jun 20, 2013, 09.46 PMby Sara Álvarez
Muchísimas gracias!! No lo dudes, dale una oportunidad! Yo tampoco estaba muy segura por aquello de que los bañadores enseñan demasiado… pero con este me siento super cómoda. La tela la compré en Madrid, en Ribes y Casals, asique si vives cerca igual puedes conseguir la misma tela. Y si no igual en la web la tienen: www.tiendatelas.com

The tradeoff simply isn't worth it at this time for BCB, in my real tanking spec I would rather have Mark of Blood or Rune-Tap vs a single point, which amounts to a paltry .7-1.1% of threat in every parse I have done. 3 points is worthwhile, but impossible to get without dropping Toughness, which is a laughable decision until they implement a tankable fully spell damage boss of difficulty.
Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft - That is the maximum single target threat spec I use that still retains the "core" tanking survival talents -
Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft is what I use for 5 mans, 10 mans, anything else with trivial incoming damage.
I in no way advocate the second build for progression with any current encounter however... it's a single minded TPS/DPS spec built to roll content rapidly.
Edit - I didn't actually answer your question. I don't drop anything, I traded a Mark of Blood point for it. I always have Necrosis as I find it to be an excellent talent. In my build right now I think I am playing around with Corpse Explosion for heroic dailies.

Can Mushrooms Rescue the Gulf?
Page 2
More Mushrooms, Less Waste
Eating oil turns out to be just one of many practical applications for fungi. Stamets has demonstrated that they offer cheap and sustainable solutions for encouraging the healthy growth of plants, controlling insect pests, filtering farm waste, and creating medicines to treat human diseases.
Several of Stamets' projects take advantage of the symbiotic relationships that exist between fungi and plants. Certain fungi intertwine themselves with the roots of plants, taking nutrients from them while protecting the plants from attack. Fungi can also make a plant hundreds or even thousands of times more efficient at gathering water and minerals from the soil.
Stamets' company, Fungi Perfecti, manufactures an alternative to fertilizers called Mycogrow, which some organic farmers say provides them with huge and healthy crops without creating pollution.
Another product based on the same principle is the LifeBox, a package made from recycled cardboard that contains the seeds of common trees paired with the spores of specific fungi that partner with them in old-growth forests. You use the box for shipping; the recipient tears it up and buries it in the ground. A cobweb-like growth of white mycelia will appear on the surface a few days later. This fungal network "mothers the seed nursery by providing nutrients and water," according to the project's website, "thus protecting the growing trees from disease, drought, and famine."
The LifeBox project will utilize human networks as well as mycelial ones. Just as this article appears in print, a new app will be released for iPhone, Droid, and iPad that allows users to post the exact location and species of their Lifebox grove and see where others have been planted, too. It's a "blending of nature-based and computer-based technologies," Stamets says. "We need to take the best of each."
Video: 6 ways mushrooms can save the world
His company is also developing fungus-based pesticides that kill ants and termites, as well as a technology that allows sacks of mycelia to filter toxins and dangerous bacteria from farm waste. In each case, the "mycotechnology" allows people to do an everyday task, but with a drastically reduced footprint of toxins and wastes. Far from being the poisonous or dirty pests many people think they are, Stamets says, fungi provide some of the cleanest solutions to our environmental problems.
Mycelia Move to the Mainstream
If you find these ideas fascinating, you are not alone. There is a growing community of people who share Stamets' confidence in the ability of fungi to help save the planet. They include organic farmers who use his company's plant-growth enhancements and farm-waste abatement technologies, mushroom growers who attend his sought-after seminars (sold out through November 2010), and parents who use his LifeBoxes and growing kits to teach their kids about fungi.
They also include leaders of media and culture. In 2008, Stamets was named a "Green-O-Vator" by National Geographic Adventure magazine and one of the 50 Visionaries of the Year by Utne Reader. He recently shared a stage with rocker Sting at an event about social change, and he appeared in Leonardo DiCaprio's film The 11th Hour, a documentary about the need for a radical shift in how humans treat the earth.
Does this mean we can expect to see bins of mushrooms breaking down waste in the Gulf sometime soon? For better or worse, that depends on the decisions of the Coast Guard and British Petroleum officials currently in charge of the cleanup. While they might not be ready to recruit the fungal kingdom just yet, Stamets and the workers at his company are hard at work to make sure that the solutions are ready to go as soon as opportunity appears.
James Trimarco is a writer and activist based in New York City, and a consulting editor for YES! He wrote this article for the Fall 2010 issue, A Resilient Community.

Abigail Adams, Entrepreneurial Woman Extraordinaire
16/01/2011 | (0) | Añada Su Comentario
Abigail Smith Adams (1744-1818) is perhaps best known as the second "First Lady" of the United States. What is less well known is that she became an enterprising woman and sole support of her family when, in the 1770s and 1780s her husband John Adams effectively gave up his law practice for public service. He was instrumental in launching the American Revolution against the British, serving as a member of the Continental Congress from Massachusetts and later representing the fledgling nation to (and negotiating with) the major European powers, in Amsterdam, in Paris, and in London. For over 20 years of their 54-year old marriage, Abigail and her "dearest friend" lived mostly apart, though keeping closely in touch through letters.
Abigail Adams first took over operation of the family farm, managing its tenants and coping with a shortage of farm hands and rising labor costs. She then turned to merchandising and brokering – selling desirable and scarce goods such as chinaware, calico, handkerchiefs and ribbons that John sent to her by ship from Europe. She also speculated in land and acquired extensive holdings, in the face of troubles with currency inflation, counterfeit paper money, and increasing taxation. All this she did in an era when wives were technically deprived of property and the ability to make financial transactions – but she accomplished all this in John's name, serving in effect as her husband's "deputy."
Her biographer, Edith B. Gelles, describes Abigail's activities in these terms, quoting from her very extensive correspondence, which has become a treasure of American history and literature:
"Since she could not own property in her own right, she was obliged to inform John [12 July 1782] that 'You are named in the Charter as original proprietor, so no deed was necessary.' Ironic indeed that John now owned over 1,600 acres of Vermont which he did not want, purchased by Abigail, who had the courage to speculate and the cleverness to negotiate for land she could not legally possess. If the situation appeared unjust to Abigail, she did not write about such a reaction in her surviving letters."
"The Adamses didn't become rich, but that was not Abigail's ambition. Her aim was to maintain the family, to feed, clothe, and educate her children without going into debt. She found that a satisfying goal."
For most women, economic enterpreneurship has been and remains first and foremost about survival. The remarkable Abigail Adams was no exception.
