Ethically Speaking - Dealing with an Opposing Party Who is Proceeding Pro Se
When I was in law school, I thought having a client whose opponent did not have an attorney would be a great thing. Such a case would, I thought, be easy. It would be sort of like playing a game with no opponent--an almost guaranteed win with little or no opposition. I could not have been more wrong.The reality is that representing a client against a party proceeding pro se presents challenges much greater than representing a client against a party who has an attorney. Everything is harder, not easier, both for the lawyer and the judge when one party is pro se. Unfortunately, neither the rules which govern lawyers' behavior nor the code which regulates judicial conduct address in any detail the issues which arise, leaving the question of how to deal with a party who does not have a lawyer largely unanswered. This column is an attempt to provide some guidance to lawyers and judges when they find themselves in the inherently awkward position of dealing with an unrepresented party.Defendants in criminal matters are entitled to lawyers paid by the government if the potential outcome is incarceration and they cannot afford their own (they also have a right to represent themselves). In most civil cases, however, there is no such right. (There are exceptions. For example, a parent in a termination of parental rights case or a parent in certain juvenile cases also has a right to counsel.) The absence of a right to counsel does not mean, of course, that the issues in a lawsuit or other legal matter do not involve vitally important matters, such as custody of a child in a divorce or paternity action, or significant financial liability for something. Rather, such actions involve critically important issues, but one simply does not have a right to an attorney (an indigent person may qualify for the services of a legal aid lawyer, but qualifying does not create a right to counsel. Most such offices cannot come close to meeting the demand for their services.) In addition to persons who qualify for, but cannot obtain legal assistance from legal aid offices, the sad truth is that many persons who are not eligible for civil legal assistance are not able to pay for an attorney to represent their interests. (I often joke that I could not afford to hire myself. It's not really a joke. While I could afford some of my time, I would be very hard pressed to retain myself for any length of time, such as to represent me in a contested divorce case). As a consequence of the high cost of legal representation, eighty percent of the legal needs of low-income Americans go unmet. The same is probably true of the legal needs of low and lower-middle class Americans. It has become fairly common, therefore, for one party to a lawsuit or other legal matter to be without representation. Natural persons have a right to represent themselves. "Any person may appear, prosecute or defend any action pro se. Partnerships and sole proprietorships may appear through the owners." By contrast, "Corporations and unincorporated associations (other than partnerships and individual proprietorships) may appear only through an attorney licensed to practice in Wyoming." (In Small Claims Court, "corporations, partnerships, associations or other organizations may litigate actions on behalf of themselves in person or through authorized employees, with or without an attorney . . .")The Preamble to the Wyoming Rules of Professional Conduct (the "Rules") provides "general orientation" to the Rules. It reminds lawyers that they "should be mindful of deficiencies in the administration of justice and of the fact that the poor, and sometimes persons who are not poor, cannot afford adequate legal assistance." Because of these deficiencies, "all lawyers should devote professional time and resources and use civic influence to ensure equal access to our system of justice for all those who, because of economic or social barriers, cannot afford or secure adequate legal counsel." To try and meet that need, the Rules contain an aspirational goal for each lawyer to provide fifty hours of pro bono service per year. In addition, that same sense of professionalism should carry over into lawyers' treatment of persons who are proceeding pro se. Finally, lawyers should never forget that the Rules "do not . . . exhaust the moral and ethical considerations that should inform a lawyer."The Ethical Framework for LawyersThe Rules are premised, for the most part, on a lawyer representing a client whose interests are adverse to those of another party who is also represented by a lawyer. With two exceptions, the Rules do not address the responsibilities of a lawyer who either represents a client proceeding against another party who is proceeding pro se or a lawyer who is dealing with one or more parties whom the lawyer does not represent (while the Preamble and Scope of the Rules also mention persons proceeding pro se; the Rules, not the Preamble, Scope or Commentary, bind lawyers. "[T]he text of each Rule is authoritative.").The first, and most important, time the Rules address a lawyer's responsibility when representing a client against a person proceeding without an attorney is in Rule 4.3, which is entitled "Dealing with unrepresented persons." It says:In dealing on behalf of a client with a person who is not represented by counsel, a lawyer shall not state or imply that the lawyer is disinterested. When the lawyer knows or reasonably should know that the unrepresented person misunderstands the lawyer's role in the matter, the lawyer shall make reasonable efforts to correct the misunderstanding. The lawyer shall not give legal advice to an unrepresented person, other than the advice to secure counsel, if the lawyer knows or reasonably should know that the interests of such a person are or have a reasonable possibility of being in conflict with the interests of the client.Six phrases in the Rule are in bold, as each of them articulates an important duty for a lawyer representing a client against a person proceeding pro se.First, the Rule applies when a lawyer is "dealing on behalf of a client with a person who is not represented by counsel." It applies, therefore, whenever a lawyer is representing a client whose adversary does not have a lawyer. The Rule does not say that a lawyer must inquire whether he or she has a lawyer, but it should be read as though it did. The reason is simple. The Rule applies whether the lawyer knows or not. By contrast, if the lawyer "knows" that the other person is represented by a lawyer, the lawyer "shall not communicate about the subject matter of the representation" with that person, unless the lawyer has the permission of the other lawyer, or is authorized to make the communication "by law or court order." In other words, if the person does not have a lawyer, Rule 4.3 applies. If he or she does, Rule 4.2 applies. The only way for a lawyer to know which Rule to follow is to ask if the person has a lawyer. Accordingly, Rule 4.3 should be read to include a duty to ask if the person with whom the lawyer is communicating is represented by a lawyer.Second, when a lawyer is dealing with a person proceeding pro se, the lawyer "shall not state or imply that the lawyer is disinterested." Again, the reason is simple. Often, if not usually, a non-lawyer assumes that a lawyer is looking after his or her interests, even when the lawyer has been retained by the other party. While that makes no sense to lawyers, it is a common misconception. In particular, an unrepresented person may not understand that the duty of the lawyer retained by the other party is to act "zealously" on behalf of the other party. Instead, the lawyer may be incorrectly viewed as a disinterested professional whose job is to seek justice (although a prosecutor has the duty to act as a "minister of justice," other lawyers do not.).The simple fact is that a lawyer is not disinterested, and to state or imply that he or she is violates a lawyer's obligation not to "make a false statement of material fact of law to a third person." A lawyer should, therefore, assume that an unrepresented person does not understand the lawyer's role, and he or she should always take steps to make sure the unrepresented party knows who the lawyer represents, and that the lawyer's job is to get the best deal possible for his or her client. Those efforts should be documented in any phone conversation, forms or letters that the lawyer prepares.Third, even if the lawyer does not make the foregoing assumption, there are times when the lawyer must clear up any misunderstanding about the lawyer's role. That is when "the lawyer knows or reasonably should know that the unrepresented person misunderstands the lawyer's role." The Rule's use of both "know" and "reasonably should know" imposes additional obligations on the lawyer. "Knows" is subjective, meaning "actual knowledge . . . [although a] person's knowledge may be inferred from circumstances." (The last clause simply means that a lawyer may not close his or her eyes to the obvious.) The use of the phrase "reasonably should know" brings in the objective, reasonable lawyer standard: "Reasonably should know" means that "a lawyer of reasonable prudence and competence would ascertain the matter in question." The only way to "ascertain" whether the person has a lawyer is to ask. The only way, therefore, that a lawyer can discharge his or her duties under Rule 4.3 is to inquire if the apparently unrepresented person has a lawyer. The first statement out of a lawyer's mouth, therefore, when the lawyer is dealing on behalf of a client with any other person, should be to ask whether that person has a lawyer. If the answer is "no," Rule 4.3 applies. If the answer is "yes," Rule 4.2 (the anti-contact with represented parties' rule) applies. Fourth, if the lawyer learns that the unrepresented person misunderstands the lawyer's role, "the lawyer shall make reasonable efforts to correct the misunderstanding." The inclusion of "reasonable" in the obligation, once again, brings in the objective standard of "a reasonably prudent and competent lawyer." Such a lawyer would explain the identity of the lawyer's client, as well as how he or she is looking after the lawyer's client's interests, and not those of the unrepresented person.Fifth, the lawyer must be careful not to give legal advice, for which the unrepresented person is likely to ask. A lawyer who represents a client and is dealing with an unrepresented party "shall not give legal advice to an unrepresented person, other than the advice to secure counsel." This prohibition makes sense as the giving of legal advice may give rise to an attorney-client relationship. If that happens, the lawyer will have two clients, with interests that are likely to be directly adverse. That will result in a concurrent conflict of interest which is probably one that may not be waived, and the attorney will have to withdraw from representing both clients. (It is unethical to even ask for a waiver of a conflict that is not waivable.)Finally, the advice to obtain counsel is to be given "if the lawyer knows or reasonably should know that the interests of such a person are or have a reasonable possibility of being in conflict with the interests of the client." There will be few times that a lawyer dealing with an unrepresented party will not "know" or "reasonably should know" that the interests of the lawyer's client and those of the adverse party "are or have a reasonable possibility of being in conflict." Accordingly, a lawyer should assume a conflict, or at least a potential conflict, and advise the unrepresented party to retain an attorney.Read as a whole, the Rule boils down to a simple proposition. A lawyer should not take unfair advantage of an unrepresented party. While the argument may be made that a lawyer ethically must do so to benefit the lawyer's client, as part of being a zealous advocate, that argument does not fly very far. It is based on the premise that a represented client will "benefit" by his or her lawyer taking unfair advantage of an unrepresented party. That is not always the case. Sometimes the wiser, and safer, course is to not push the envelope and run the risk that an apparently advantageous agreement or result is thrown out.Although the case has not arisen in Wyoming, it has elsewhere. In In re Matter of the Marriage of Foran, the Washington Supreme Court considered the enforceability of a pre-nuptial agreement which had greatly benefitted one party who had been represented, at the expense of the other, who had not. The agreement had been drafted by the lawyer for the husband-to-be. The day before the parties were to leave for their wedding trip, they came in to read and sign the agreement. The lawyer advised the wife-to-be that he was not her lawyer, and that she should seek the advice of another lawyer. She declined and signed the agreement. At the time of the divorce some years later, the wife challenged the agreement, which was found to be unenforceable. The Washington Supreme Court upheld that determination. One reason for its ruling was that the then prospective wife "did not have sufficient time to consult with independent counsel . . . . The only realistic choice would have been to postpone the wedding . . ." The court discussed the reason for providing such an opportunity. Its reasoning is apt to the issue of a lawyer negotiating a deal with an unrepresented client that significantly favors the lawyer's client. "The purpose of independent counsel is more than simply to explain just how unfair a given proposed contract may be; it is for the primary purpose of assisting the subservient party to negotiate an economically fair contract." A Foran type analysis is likely similar to how a court will review a one-sided transaction in which the unrepresented client makes a claim that he or she misunderstood the lawyer's role, and thought the lawyer was there to help both. The lawyer better be able to show that he or she complied with Rule 4.3, or the formerly unrepresented party will have a good argument to set aside the agreement. (Agreements entered into in violation of the rules may be voidable.)To avoid such a situation, a lawyer should advise the client that an unfair agreement negotiated under inappropriate circumstances may not be enforceable. Only with such advice can the client make an "informed decision" about whether to proceed with the agreement. If the client insists on pursuing such a path, even after being advised that the agreement may not be enforceable, that decision should be followed, so long as it does not involve a fraudulent or criminal act.The other mention in the Rules of an unrepresented party is in Rule 2.4, a new Rule that describes the duties of a lawyer serving as a "third party neutral," the Rule's term for "mediator." As in Rule 4.3, which addresses a lawyer's duties when dealing with an unrepresented party and is described above, Rule 2.4 strives to prevent an unrepresented party from misunderstanding the role of a lawyer acting as a "third party neutral."Traditionally lawyers represent clients, and that is still their primary function. Now, however, they often play other, non-representational roles: "[A] lawyer may serve as a third-party neutral, a nonrepresentational role helping the parties to resolve a dispute or other matter. . . ." The key to acting as a "third-party neutral" is that the lawyer does not represent any of the parties to the dispute. Rather, the lawyer "assists two or more persons who are not clients . . . to reach a resolution of a dispute . . ."It is increasingly common for cases to go to mediation. Wyoming even has a rule that allows either party or the judge to ask that a case go to some type of ADR. If that happens, the lawyer who is acting as the third-party neutral has duties similar to a lawyer for a client who is dealing with an unrepresented party: The lawyer[S]hall inform unrepresented parties that the lawyer is not representing them. When the lawyer knows or reasonably should know that a party does not understand the lawyer's role in the matter, the lawyer shall explain the difference between the lawyer's role as a third-party neutral as opposed to a lawyer's role as one who represents a client.The goal is the same. That is, unrepresented persons should understand that the third-party neutral does not represent them, and is not, therefore, looking after their interests as an attorney would. Unlike an attorney who represents another party, however, the third-party neutral is a disinterested professional, from whom all parties can properly expect something different. Beyond Lawyers' EthicsAs noted earlier, the Rules "do not . . . exhaust the moral and ethical considerations that should inform a lawyer." Instead, they establish, for the most part, the floor, beneath which a lawyer may not sink, and the ceiling, above which a lawyer may not rise. In between is a lot of room, in which a lawyer can ethically decide how to practice. It is, unfortunately, ethical to be a jerk. It is also ethical to be a professional, treating everyone, clients, lawyers, judges, court personnel, unrepresented parties, and others, with dignity and respect.Far too often, lawyers decide that it is in their interests, or their clients', or both, to unfairly take advantage of an unrepresented party. While it is certainly ethical to get a good deal for one's client, that can be done professionally and civilly. Perhaps the ultimate question a lawyer should ask of a proposed course of conduct is "how will this benefit my client and the legal system in the long run?" Too often, the question is confined to whether there is some short-term gain. And while there might be, that should not be the question. A good guide to how lawyers should behave, not just what is or is not ethical, is contained in the Litigation Standards adopted by the United States District Court for the District of Wyoming. Though the standards are designed primarily for lawyers interacting with other lawyers and the court, they apply, in part, to lawyers' treatment of non-lawyers, and their general standards should apply to everyone.For the most part, the Litigation Standards are common sense. The standards were "specifically designed to apply to those attorneys who perceive themselves solely as combatants or believe they are retained to win at all costs without regard to fundamental principles of justice." The standards contain what should be self-evident guidelines, such as "[a]ttorneys shall treat each other, the opposing party, the Court and members of the court staff with courtesy and civility, and conduct themselves in a professional manner at all times" Similarly, it should go without saying, but "[a]ttorneys shall not engage in obnoxious or antagonistic behavior." Finally, while the guidelines contain numerous other admonitions, I particularly like the statement that "[c]ursing, sarcastic commentary, use of an attorney's voice in a loud, angry or hostile manner in the course of out-of-court depositions or other proceedings are violations of this [litigation] standard." Why a lawyer would need to be told to be a decent human being in dealing with others, including judges and lawyers, is a mystery, but the standards were obviously enacted for a reason. And while the vast majority of Wyoming lawyers don't need to be told to behave, there are a few who do. Similarly, the vast majority of lawyers will treat pro se parties with the respect and dignity they deserve. There will be those, however, who do not, somehow thinking it is in their, or their clients' best interests not to. They are wrong. There is no benefit, and a lot to lose, by acting otherwise.The Ethical Framework for JudgesHaving one party unrepresented places a judge in an inherently awkward position. On the one hand, judges do not want to penalize parties who have retained counsel by helping unrepresented parties too much. On the other, judges are understandably reluctant to see injustice or unfairness happen to anyone, and yet judges cannot intervene too much. How to balance those competing considerations is a challenge.The Wyoming Code of Judicial Conduct (the "Code") places great importance on the independence and integrity of the judiciary. The Code makes it clear that judges should afford everyone the chance to be heard, but it doesn't provide much guidance on how that is to be done. Canon 2, which says that a judge "Shall Avoid . . . the Appearance of Impropriety," places a higher burden on judges than on lawyers (the "appearance of impropriety" standard was part of the Wyoming Code of Professional Responsibility. That code, however, was replaced in 1986 by the Wyoming Rules of Professional Conduct, which did not contain the appearance standard. The current Rules are the same in that respect.) Avoiding the appearance of impropriety seems to include treating all litigants, whether represented or not, with dignity and respect. The Code also directs that every litigant, represented or not, should get his or her day in court. "A judge shall accord to every person who has a legal interest in a proceeding, or that person's lawyer, the right to be heard according to law." At times, that right is more important than the outcome. One, even a lawyer, has a much easier time accepting a negative result if one feels that he or she has been heard and treated fairly. As the United States Supreme Court has noted, "the courts have an independent interest in assuring compliance with ethical standards and the appearance of fairness . . . ."Courts generally follow fairly formal, prescribed procedures. The Wyoming Rules of Civil Procedure generally apply in civil proceedings. They "govern procedure in all courts of record in the State of Wyoming, in all actions, suits or proceedings of a civil nature and in all special statutory proceedings" unless otherwise specified. In criminal cases, the Wyoming Rules of Criminal Procedure generally apply. Similarly, the Wyoming Rules of Evidence also usually apply to most judicial proceedings. Having the Rules of Procedure and the Rules of Evidence apply makes it difficult, at best, for a non-lawyer to know what to do or how to do it. The most important exception to the applicability of the rules of procedure and evidence is Small Claims Court. In contrast to most courts, which are designed for lawyers, Small Claims Courts are designed for lay persons. "No formal pleading other than the claim and notice is necessary. The hearing and disposition of the hearing shall be informal." Furthermore "strict" rules of evidence "shall not apply" in Small Claims Court. Judges in Small Claims Courts, therefore, have substantially more leeway to provide assistance to pro se litigants.Beyond Judicial EthicsHow far a judge should go in assisting a pro se litigant will always be a difficult decision. It will not be difficult, however, to treat everyone with dignity and respect. Just as there should be no need to tell lawyers they should behave decently, there is no reason to tell judges that either.Perhaps one of the better suggestions I heard from a judge was that a judge should, at the outset of a trial involving a pro se litigant, explain the procedure to be followed. As the perception that most folks, including many law students, have of court is based on what they have seen in the media, explaining how things really work will accomplish a couple of things. First, it will correct any misperception that the lay person has about court. Second, it may convince a lay person that he or she will have the chance to be heard, and, in the meantime, keep quiet (or at least quieter).Beyond explaining procedural matters, it may help if a judge explains his or her ruling. Telling a person why he or she "lost," or why the judge cannot do what the person wants, may help a great deal.Finally, when all is said and done, patience and courtesy go a long way. While we all get impatient and want to get on with whatever is next, allowing a person to vent may be the reason he or she is in court. While the time may come that a judge owes it to everyone to put a stop to inappropriate behavior, that time is probably later, rather than sooner. SummaryWhether we want to admit it or not, we are all, lawyers and judges alike, part of the system. How we behave and treat others will have a lasting impact. It will determine whether the unrepresented persons with whom we interact respect the system or despise it. As lawyers, the words of the preamble to the Wyoming Rules of Professional Conduct should ever be in our minds. "A lawyer, as a member of the legal profession, is a representative of clients, an officer of the legal system and a public citizen having special responsibility for the quality of justice." The quality of justice depends, in significant part, on how participants, whether represented or not, are treated.Similarly, "[t]he role of the judiciary is central to American concepts of justice and the rule of law. . . . [J]udges, individually and collectively, must respect and honor the judicial office as a public trust and strive to enhance and maintain confidence in our legal system." Treating all litigants with patience and courtesy will do much to enhance the public's confidence in the legal system.At the end of the day, we lawyers and judges can choose how we treat others, including pro se litigants. We can choose to treat them with dignity and respect, or with impatience, as some lesser beings who are not blessed (or cursed) with a legal education or a black robe. And after all, "it is the choices we make . . . . that show who we truly are, far more than our abilities."John M.

Virginia College RN program?
- 0Mar 17, '09 by allthgsthroughchristMy sister talked with a recruiter today. She said that the recruiter said the program in roughly 27 MONTHS, and they do not allow any transfer credit from previous schools. The tution is $400 dollars a credit hour. I think that the program is very new to Mobile. I do not know about the GPA requirements. Hope this helps.:wink2:
- 0Mar 22, '09 by matchsticktgtThe RN program in Birmingham is 7 semesters and is a bit over $5,000 per semester. They have yet to graduate a class, so are on "probation" until first graduating class takes the NCLEX exam. It is a night program though, with clinicals at night or weekends. You have to pass the TEAS test to get in.
- 0May 7, '12 by iluvmyboysI am currently speaking with an Admission Represenative from Virginia College as well. I agree with just about everything that you have said, except for the fact that they do accept outside credits. I took a lot of my prerequisites at Faulkner University in Birmingham and they accepted all of them at Virginia College. I hope that helps :-)
- 0May 8, '12 by HM-8404I talked to the people in Birmingham when I first got out of the military. Unless it has changed they require you to go through their LPN program first then go into their RN program. The cost was so high I quickly decided against them. It was going to cost more than going through Nursing School at UAB or Samford.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

I met Kristin via twitter and I've really gotten to admire her as an artist and amazing mom & person. Her products can be found here where she sells handmade, beautiful eco-friendly t-shirts and children's plushies, mobiles & more. They are seriously gorgeous! Her choice of fabrics amazes me all the time.
Please check out her incredible video on Vimeo where she draws on her sewing machine. Non-stop! Be amazed. Please stop by and peruse Kristin's blog here..
So where was I? lol. Oh yes, being tagged..
Here are the rules:
The Tag game goes as follows:
Go to the 8th folder in which you store your photos
Select the 8th photo
Post it to your blog and tell the story behind it.
After following the above instructions, you are 'supposed' to tag 8 other bloggers.
So, on to the 8th folder and 8th photo I found... this! I think this was the day when Keira and I went downtown shopping together. We found the big bow headband à la Madonna circa 80's at Forever 21. Gotta love that store! It was less than 7$ and she felt like a princess wearing it. Of course, Keira hates wearing stuff on her head so the bow lasted about 5 minutes before she tore it off and flung it somewhere. lol.
Thanks Kristin for tagging me!
And here are my list tagging 8 others! Like Kristin wrote, please don't feel pressured to post anything, it's just pure fun..

Nice little course with a few low tunnel shots and baskets are hidden behind trees you have to make sure you have a clear shot at them.We started this course early in the morning the first five holes we were being quite not hitting chains because the baskets are way to close to the street and the house.

"These were yummy! An awesome recipe & a great twist on an old southern favorite. These cook much faster sauteed than my mothers all day boiling method. And I think they had more flavor. The only change I made was I added some ham (only bec'I had it on hand) but it would've tasted fine w/out it. THANK YOU BIG DADDY!"

Our long-lasting relationship with the sea has fostered a deep commitment to the health of our oceans. During the past two centuries, we have assumed an increasingly active environmental stewardship role. As we've grown to become a leading global supplier of marine Omega-3 EPA/DHA oils, our responsibilities and commitments have also become global in nature. Our global perspective has led to an environmental stewardship approach that entails forging and upholding practices and processes designed to sustain the worldwide health of the planet and ecological marine systems on which our human health relies. Our eco-solutions extend long-term and require ongoing commitment and action in three areas: sustainability, traceability and accountability.
For over 170 years, Epax has developed and produced marine-based oils for human nutrition. Historically rooted in a glacially carved fjord in Norway, we've always depended upon the sea for our livelihood. As a result, we've developed a respect and reverence for all things marine.

Amazon.com, the online company famous for selling everything from books and CDs to groceries and toys, has entered the video download business.

The shows that are currently available encompass several different genres that include classic and current shows — and more are forthcoming! Miss the latest episode of 24, Prison Break, Bones, First Down, or CSI? Amazon has them — often the day after they're shown on TV.
You can buy single episodes or complete seasons for one price. This is great for anyone who wants to check out the last episodes of their favorites. For the fans of television series finales, you can check out the incredibly popular Firefly and Star Trek, the animated classics The Jetsons and Jonny Quest, or even the Pamela Anderson sitcom Stacked!
Right now, Amazon is offering one episode of any series from their library for absolutely free. Click here for details. It doesn't get any cheaper than that — so don't wait!!

Jesse Reklaw's graphic memoir, told through conceits like cat histories and card games, is about his childhood and involves family, death, mental illness, sex and drug use. The graphic novel is told in five parts: In "Thirteen Cats" (featured in The Best American Comics), Reklaw discovers coping mechanisms that mimic his family pets; "Toys I Love" relates the author's pre-pubescent brushes with deviant sexual activity, and the way innocence converges with real sexual trauma; "The Fred Robinson Story" tells the story of Reklaw's period stalking perfect strangers; "The Stacked Deck," in which hereditary influences towards criminal behavior, drug use and depression are explored via card games the author played with his family; and "Lessoned," a family history of mental illness.
The second Slow Wave collection turns the dreams of strangers into the most insightful, humorous, and clever four-panel comic strips you have ever read. This hardcover volume captures the sublime pleasure of tumbling through the freewheeling narrative of our sleeping lives. Each strip is an adaptation of the many dreams submitted to Reklaw from all over the world, every one a unique and compelling journey into a landscape to which we all travel. The Night of Your Life is a testament to the ability of comics to illuminate the corridors of the imagination with wit, sincerity, and joy.
This daily diary in comic book format candidly details the cartoonist's lifestyle of inking, drinking, and anxious thinking. Like a mashup of Jim Davis and Franz Kafka, these dense yet economical strips document frustration, chronic pain, and all the filthy jokes that Jesse's cartoon pals make. Plus there's cute kitty cats and gags about lasagna. OK, just kidding about the lasagna.
See what no one was supposed to see again: pictures of hopeful students, accompanied by unflattering, behind-doors quotes from their professors and employers. Distills the essence of a bygone era from a dumpstered stash of confidential biology applicant files circa 1965-1975.
Collecting the very best from the first three years of Slow Wave.
"Fascinating, strange, and hilarious!" — Roz Chast "Crisply drawn little surreal stories that seem eerily familiar. It's smart, funny, and full of wacky non sequiturs." — Bill Griffith

Extreme Whitetail Deerhunting
Where Does Whitetail Outfitters Hunt
EDITOR'S NOTE: "I finally did it," Charlie Tobias said. "I got that deer of a lifetime." This week you'll meet Charlie and several other deer hunters who have taken the bucks of their lifetimes while extreme whitetail hunting this year in Manitoba with Whitetail Outfitters.
On this my first trip to Manitoba to hunt wilderness whitetails, I quickly learned that wilderness was where we were. We never saw a road, another hunter or any other reminders of civilization in the area where we hunted. I never even spotted an airplane flying over the place where I hunted.
I had as my guide Wyman Sangster, a retired member of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police (Mounties). He was as tough as boot leather, friendly as your pastor, strong as a young ox and thought like a deer. He hailed from Stonewall, Manitoba, Canada, and had hunted and patrolled the wilderness in this region for many years.
"The hunt by Whitetail Outfitters takes place in the North Interlake region of Manitoba, between Lake Winnipeg and Lake Manitoba," Sangster said. "Our camp is located about a quarter of a mile off the west bank of Lake Winnipeg. This wilderness area, which was burned over in 1989, has no human population but has a young, big-deer population in this 1200-square miles. The three hunters in our camp this week have 200-square miles to hunt."
When I asked Sangster what made the deer in this section of Canada so big, Sangster explained that, "The severe winters, the abundance of forage, the thickness of the cover and the lack of hunter pressure breed big bucks. Since the deer in this region have plenty of food, they don't move much. To find them, hunters must scout a lot and look for thick bedding areas of willow or spruce next to open spots where the deer can feed. Our average 10- or 12-point buck will weigh from 210 to 265 pounds each, but we see and take many deer that weigh more than 300 pounds."
The trip into your hunting camp involves a true adventure. You can spend two hours trying to go 6 miles on snowmobiles and ATVs to get to your hunting site. The temperature will range from 32 degrees to -20 degrees, and you often will spend 12 hours at a time in one tree stand. However, the wait and the severe weather will prove well worth the trip when you take one of the monster bucks that you'll see this week. So, let's get on with the week, and let the hunters tell their stories."
Charlie Tobias:
Charlie Tobias of Danville, Pennsylvania, took a huge whitetail that proved to be the best buck of his life. "The ride into camp was quite an adventure," Tobias reported. "We broke through the ice several times as we came across the beaver pond. I learned quickly why I'd been advised to wear hip boots. I had to keep getting off the four-wheeler to help push it out of the ice and mud.
"On the second day of the hunt, I was in the stand before daylight after getting up from a warm bed and enjoying a good, hot breakfast. At 8:00 a.m., I saw a doe and a small 8 point walk right under my tree stand. I'd have shot that 8 point in my home state of Pennsylvania, but up here in Manitoba I knew I was looking for a bigger deer. At 9:30 a.m., three does came within easy range of my stand. Then at noon I saw three more does.
"At 12:45 p.m., a doe ran in front of my stand, and I could hear a buck grunting behind her. As the buck moved from my left to my right, I saw his huge antlers 75 yards from my stand. When I spotted those antlers, I knew he had to be the biggest buck I'd ever had the opportunity to take. While the buck ran through the brush, chasing the doe, I looked for an opening. Once the buck ran through the opening I fired. I saw the buck hunch up and knew that I'd hit him. But he kept going. The second time I shot, the buck went down and came up again. Finally, I put him down.
"I got out of the tree and started walking toward my downed buck. I could see his big beams coming out of the snow and prayed that the other side of his rack was as big as the side I could see. When I finally got to the deer and pulled his head up, I almost started crying I was so proud and excited. I thought to myself, 'I finally did it. I got the deer of my lifetime.' I'd been searching for this buck all my life. The buck scored 140 points Boone & Crockett.
"I would recommend this hunt for a black-powder hunter, a bowhunter or a gun hunter. The trip with Whitetail Outfitters was both an adventure and the hunt of a lifetime. I took my biggest buck ever. You can bet I'll try to go back
What's Hunting With Whitetail Outfitters Like
EDITOR'S NOTE: Hunting the wilderness area of Manitoba, Canada, in the Interlake region provides an opportunity for a sportsman to hunt and take the biggest deer of his lifetime. These deer receive no hunting pressure. Too, hunters have extremely high chances of bagging a monster.
According to the Whitetail Outfitters' guide Wyman Sangster, "Deer will travel along a snowmobile trail -- if it goes through thick wilderness or deep snow. The trail makes deer walking from place to place easier."
On the second day of the hunt, I bagged a really nice 8-point buck that crossed the snowmobile trail we'd made to get to my tree stand. The next morning Sangster put Myron Jorstad from Wisconsin in my same stand.
"Because friends and I had taken as many as three deer from the same stand in one day, I wasn't too concerned that a deer had already been taken from the stand that I was in," Jorstad said. "We could tell by the sign that plenty of bucks were in the area. On the first morning of my hunt, I was on a different stand where a very large 8 point walked right under my stand just before first light. When the buck reached 15 yards from my stand, I could tell he had big antlers -- but not how big. Although the buck had a huge body, he just didn't have the rack I wanted.
"On the second day of the hunt, I had two does come up under me, but they spooked and ran off. That same afternoon I got in the stand where another hunter had taken a buck, and a doe and a buck came within gun range in no time. Because snow was falling, and the wind was blowing, a flap on my tree stand blew in the breeze and spooked both of the deer. When the deer stopped about 50 yards from my stand, I could tell that the buck only had 6 points. So, I let him go on his way.
"About noon on the third day of the hunt, I spotted movement off to my right in the burn-off area. At 150 yards away, I could tell that the buck had nice antlers. I moved to the stand, looked through the scope and decided to take the shot. When the deer took the bullet, he didn't move. I fired again, and this time the buck went down. The buck was 150 yards away, and I could see his antlers without my glasses. What was unusual about this buck was that he fell right on the snowmobile trail where Wyman Sangster had turned around his snowmobile the day before. So, the buck was easy to load. We put him in the sled and brought him back to camp.
"Since this was my first guided hunt, I didn't really know what to expect. I've hunted for more than 40 years, and this hunt was one of the best hunts I've ever been on. I look forward to hunting up here again in Canada as soon as possible. The accommodations were really good: you stay warm and dry; they feed you well; and they give you a place to sleep. The only thing I missed was Monday Night Football on TV. I saw three bucks in three days and had to pass up two of them before I took the deer I bagged. Because sometimes I'd gone the whole season without seeing a buck. This hunt was great, and I can't wait to do it again."
Other Big Bucks
EDITOR'S NOTE: This week you'll meet several deer hunters who have taken the bucks of their lifetimes while extreme whitetail hunting this year in Manitoba, Canada, with Whitetail Outfitters.
Bill La Francoise from Thompkins Cove, New York, took his biggest buck of a lifetime on his trip to the wilderness of Manitoba with Whitetail Outfitters. "I've hunted with Whitetail Outfitters for 13 years. I've taken two 150 B & C bucks up here. However, the buck I took this year scored 165 points, the biggest buck I'd ever bagged.
"I found a lot of tracks in one area. Although I didn't see any scrapes or rubs, the tracks told me this was a really big buck. On the first morning with the wind blowing hard, I saw a small buck at about 8:15 a.m. The wind finally died down after about two hours. I could hear the buck coming from behind me, making plenty of noise as he came through the willows with his face into the wind. Then I could see the deer moving through the thick brush out of the corner of my eye when he was about 60 yards away. Thirty seconds after I saw the deer, I got off the shot. I'd picked an opening along the line of travel that I knew the big buck would take. When the buck stepped into that opening, I squeezed the trigger. The buck went down.
"After the shot, I had to take a minute or two to catch my breath. I knew I'd bagged a really big buck. However, I didn't realize at the time that it was the biggest buck I'd ever seen. Then as I walked to the deer, I could see his massive horns. The buck which weighed well over 300 pounds, gave me the thrill of a lifetime. I'll tell anyone to come on a hunt like this because you can't find whitetails this size anywhere else in the world. These bucks are just monstrous-sized."
Although La Francoise's hunting buddy Mike Nichols took a nice 9 point, Nichols had bagged larger deer before than this one. "I knew I'd have to leave camp early because my wife was ill. So, instead of waiting until the end of the hunt, I went ahead and took this nice buck. I have taken plenty of bucks bigger than this one while hunting with Whitetail Outfitters."
More Big Deer
EDITOR'S NOTE: This week you'll meet several deer hunters who have taken the bucks of their lifetimes while extreme whitetail hunting this year in Manitoba with Whitetail Outfitters.
Clifford Shultz of Bloomsberg, Pennsylvania, also took his buck of lifetime this year with Whitetail Outfitters. Schultz had hoped to find a buck like this 8-point one with unusually high brow tines. Shultz said, "I really loved the trip into the wilderness. The trailer containing all our luggage flipped over, a couple of the four-wheelers got stuck in the mud and ice, and we had to get off and push them out. We also went through some really deep water holes. Just the ride in was a fabulous adventure. I was really looking for a wilderness experience where I'd be back in the woods, never see another hunter from my tree stand and get the opportunity to bag a really big buck. This hunt more than met my expectations. We had five hunters in camp, and all five got their bucks. We had warm tents to sleep in, plenty of good, hot food and great guides who took care of us as though we were their best friends. I came up here needing to lose weight, and I actually gained weight.
"I bagged took my deer on the fourth day of the hunt. On the first day, I missed a buck even bigger than the one I eventually took. On Tuesday, the second day of the hunt, I spotted four big does and a really nice 8 point that just wasn't as big as the one I wanted to take. So, I let him walk off. On the third day of the hunt, the wind was really blowing. However, I was the only person in camp who didn't see a deer. At about 10:00 a.m. on the fourth day of my hunt, I saw a doe off to my left that suddenly disappeared. I decided to get out the lunch that the guide had packed for me, pour myself a cup of coffee and eat. After I put my thermos back in my pack, I looked at the same spot where I'd seen the deer earlier. When I moved to get a better look, I could see antlers. I thought that this might be the same 8-point buck I'd spotted on Tuesday. I decided to go ahead and take him. Once I squeezed the trigger, the buck began to wobble to his left and his right. But the thick brush kept me from getting off a second shot. I could see the deer with my naked eye, but I couldn't see him through my scope. Finally the deer moved out of sight. I took my time, let my pack down out of my tree and climbed down from my tree stand slowly and deliberately. I had to walk about 100 yards to where I'd shot the deer where I spotted a really good blood trail. I followed the buck's blood trail for about half an hour. I looked at my watch, remembering that my guide was coming to check on me about noon. The guide had made a rule that if anyone shot a deer and went after the deer or needed help getting a buck out, then the hunter was to leave his pack by his tree stand. Once the guide spotted the pack, he'd follow the hunter's tracks in the snow and come to help him get the deer out. I knew I needed to get back to my stand and leave my pack for the guide. I left the trail and went back to my tree stand to wait on my guide. Although I hated to quit following my deer, I felt sure the buck would be down. I knew I'd need the guide to help me get that big buck out. I headed back to my tree stand.
"As I returned to my tree stand to wait on my guide, I became more anxious. When my guide, Ryan Hack, arrived at my tree stand, he told me, 'Come on. Let's go, and I'll help you find your deer.' Since Ryan is much younger and stronger than me, I told him to go ahead. I said, 'I'll never keep up with you.' Ryan finally returned and said, 'You got your buck.'
"We had to take a chainsaw and cut our way through the brush to get to my deer with the 4-wheeler. When I finally saw the buck, I couldn't believe how massive his rack was. He was much bigger than the 8 point I'd seen on the first day and was the biggest deer I'd ever taken in my life. I love this wilderness hunting in Manitoba, and I can promise you I'll be back."
Jerry Ward of Danville, Pennsylvania stayed in the same camp as Clifford Shultz. He explained, "I came into camp on a sled and thought to myself, 'Oh, boy.' We were in beaver swamps, water, snow and ice, and I was wondering what would happen to me. At the same time, I was laughing and having the time of my life. The land was wet and sloppy, and I hoped the end of the trail would be better. Then we were really surprised when we got to our tents, which had wood sides and roofs. The tents were warm and comfortable, and the food was delicious. On the first day of the hunt, I saw two or three bucks and several does. I spotted a 4 point, a 6 point and a spike. On the second day I only saw one buck, but I watched a lot of does. On the third day, I'd seen three bucks by 10:30 a.m. -- one a spike, then a 4 point and next a 6 point. After 10:30 I didn't see a deer. The weather turned really cold, and snow began to fall. I used the heater inside the sack that covered the blind and stayed warm - - even though the weather was terrible.
"On the fourth day of the hunt, we rode the snowmobile 20 minutes into the woods and then hiked about 900 yards to get to my tree stand for that day. My guide, Ryan Hack, pointed high in the air and said, 'That's where you're going.' The tree stand was really high on a thin pine, and when the wind blew I got a ride that was definitely something to write home about. The guide assured me that a big buck would come through the area between 3:00 and 4:00 p.m. That day I got so cold in that stand. I started to climb down and walk around two or three times, but I stayed in the stand instead. Then at 2:15 p.m. a big buck stepped out of the thicket. I didn't see him at first because I was grunting at a doe. As the doe walked off, I reached in my pack to get my sandwich for lunch when the buck appeared about 100 yards away. That buck had his ears laid back like he was ready to fight. As soon as I saw his rack, I got my rifle to my shoulder. When I squeezed the trigger, the big buck went down and then lifted his head. Since I thought he might try to get back up, I fired one more time. I screamed, 'Yes!' and then watched him through the scope for about 20 minutes, just to make sure he wasn't going to get up again.
"Finally I got out of the tree stand and went to the buck. I thought to myself. 'Good one. This is the buck you've waited for your whole life. He's got 14 points and weighs about 240 to 260 pounds live weight.' This buck is the biggest I've ever taken in my life. I plan to come back here and hunt again. I don't know if I can take a buck bigger than the one I've bagged this time, but the fun comes in the trying. The guides work hard, and they tell you the truth about the deer you can expect to see. The food is great; the accommodations are warm and comfortable. I will be back again."
Tarsal Glands, Premonitions and Trophy Bucks
EDITOR'S NOTE: This week you'll meet several deer hunters who have taken the bucks of their lifetimes while extreme whitetail hunting this year in Manitoba with Whitetail Outfitters.
Tom Runcle of Chetek, Wisconsin, had waited five days while hunting with Whitetail Outfitters to take his buck. "I'd bear hunted with Whitetail Outfitters for the last two years and had a dynamite hunt each time. On the first morning of my hunt, I had a 10-point buck and a 6-point buck come by me, but neither was the buck I wanted. I'd already decided that I would shoot the best deer of my life or go home with a deer tag in my pocket. On Tuesday, I sat in the same stand and didn't see any animals. On Wednesday, I was in the same stand for the morning hunt and had an 8-point buck come up to a tarsal gland I'd taken from another buck bagged on the hunt. I'd used tarsal glands to lure in deer at home but never seen it as effective as it was up here. However, because the deer was smaller than one I wanted to take, I let him pass.
"On Wednesday afternoon, I decided to hunt right behind the camp less than 200 yards away when I saw the biggest-bodied deer I'd ever seen in my life. He was huge, but his antlers weren't very big at all. He could have been an older buck on the decline. My guide, Wyman Sangster, had put out some deer lure, and the buck skirted around the lure. I'd also put out the tarsal gland I'd used the day before. When the buck smelled the tarsal gland, he stopped immediately and came right to it, putting his nose right up to it.
"On Thursday morning, I went to another stand on the side of a hill and at first light I spotted a 9-point buck coming from the north. But he left as quickly as he appeared. I never had a chance to glass him. On Friday morning, I returned to the hillside stand. I waited one-half hour and then saw a huge buck moving along the edge of the thicket. He had his nose in the air testing the wind, probably trying to smell a hot doe. I was hunting an area riddled with deer tracks. I believe the buck stopped to try and smell a doe before continuing into the opening. when the buck was only 70 yards away, I fired, and he hunched-up. So, I knew I'd hit him. As he ran out into the planted pines, I could tell I'd gotten him. Since he was circling back but still on his feet, I fired a second time. He vanished.
"I got out of my tree stand and found hair where I'd shot him the first time but no blood. I knew that my gun was properly sighted and that I'd shot for his vitals. When I didn't find any blood, I wondered if I'd hit him low. I continued following the trail and found two little spots of blood. When I got to the spot where I'd hit him the second time, I found more hair but still no blood. I walked about 10 yards over the hill and finally saw him piled-up. The buck scored about 152 points on Boone & Crockett and was the biggest buck I'd ever taken. He was huge and weighed at least 300 pounds live weight.
"We had a great camp: good food, knowledgeable guides and some of the biggest deer I'd ever seen. If a hunter wants the hunt of a lifetime, then this is the place to go. I think I'll have to fast for a week to get my weight back down to what it was before I came up here. As quick as I can get back up here, I'll be back."
Walter Appelle of Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey, had had a tough hunt. During this second trip with Whitetail Outfitters, he was hunting with Mike Nichols and Bill La Francoise, both friends who had hunted with him the year before. Just before the three hunters were ready to leave camp last year, Appelle had taken a nice 10-point buck at 1:30 p.m. on the last day of the hunt. Therefore Appelle had decided to come back and try for a better buck -- again with his same two friends. La Francoise had bagged a huge 165 B&C buck, and Nichols had taken a nice 9 point. Those two left camp early, leaving Appelle to finish the hunt alone.
"After four days of hunting, I'd only seen one doe and had gotten really discouraged," Appelle said.
On Thursday, I went and spent the night with Appelle before his Friday morning hunt. I told him that I had a premonition that he would take a really big buck around 9:30 a.m. on Friday morning. My heritage is Welsh, and the Welsh are known for their mysticism. So, several times I've seen my premonitions come true. Appelle half-heartedly believed that he might take a big buck on Friday.
As Appelle explained, "About 8:30 a.m., I heard some noise in the willows in front of me, but nothing stepped out of the brush. Then about 9:00 a.m., I heard more noise from the brush but still saw nothing. I had a productive scrape line off to my left that I'd hunted the year before. The year before, every day for three days, a doe would come down that scrape line. I'd hear a buck in the thicket grunting and hitting his antlers against a tree, as though he was trying to get the doe to come to him. Then after she left the scrape, the buck would circle around me and go off with her. For three days I knew that buck was there, but I never did see him. Although I could hear deer running through the thicket, I never saw any deer.
"At 9:30 a.m., I remembered what John had said about me taking my deer at that time. I looked at my watch and picked up my gun and thought, 'Maybe John's right. Perhaps I'll get a deer at 9:30.' But nothing happened. However, around 10:00 a.m., I heard a lot of noise in the thicket. At 10:15, I saw a big buck coming out of the thicket headed toward the scrape line. I brought my gun and scope up quickly but couldn't get a clear shot. When the buck was 50 yards away, I knew I couldn't let him get away. I looked for an opening, fired through it and hit him a little bit back from his shoulder. The big buck stumbled, and I fired again. The buck went down. He moved slightly, and I fired a third time. I knew that the deer had a lot of points and a really good rack. I knew that if I didn't get the deer that day I would leave the following day empty-handed.
"I took my time getting out of the tree because I was nervous and excited. Too, I only had one good arm to climb with since I was due to have rotator cup surgery on one of my arms. When I saw the deer's antlers, I said, 'Thank God I waited.' When all my friends went home and left me in camp by myself I really got discouraged. I knew I'd have to stick out the hunt if I was going to get a big buck. This buck was the biggest one I'd ever taken. When I think back in hindsight, I know John was right. My deer was in front of me at 9:30, I just couldn't see him until 10:15. What a great hunt and a great adventure I had. I'm really glad I stayed in camp after my buddies went home. I got the deer of a lifetime."

The major U.S. equity averages finished last week's truncated trading week -- when exchanges were closed for several days because of Hurricane Sandy -- with steep losses on Friday as the October jobs report fell flat ahead of the election.
On Monday, the Institute for Supply Management said its services index fell to 54.2 in October from 55.1 in September, vs. the average economist estimate of 54.5 for last month.
"October's U.S. ISM non-manufacturing index provides more evidence that GDP will grow at an annualized rate of around 2% in the fourth quarter. The decline in the index ... reversed only part of the previous month's gain to leave the index with a small upward trend," noted Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics.
Overseas markets were in the red Monday, as investors around the world anxiously awaited the outcome of the U.S. elections. The FTSE 100 in London closed down 0.5%, while the DAX in Germany lost 0.51%, with Greece getting ready to approach parliament with a new austerity plan, a sequential increase in Spanish jobless claims last month, and the European Central Bank assessing whether it has been too generous on terms on Spanish bank loans.Japan's Nikkei average finished down 0.48% and Hong Kong's Hang Seng closed down 0.47% Monday as a private study of China's services sector declined in October.

Get ready to count...
Do you enjoy watching birds in your garden? Do you have a favourite place to go to watch birds? This coming weekend (29th and 30th January) is the RSPB's Big Garden Birdwatch, an annual survey of the nations birds.
All it takes is an hour of your time to record which birds visit your garden or local park. For a list of local parks in Cardiff, click here.
You could even visit us here at St Fagans museum to record which birds you see from our bird hide. Wherever you choose to go, make sure you wrap up warm, it can be very cold work!
Registration is free and all the information you need is available from the RSPB's website: www.rspb.org.uk/birdwatch
