According to U.S. Census data, there are nearly 5,000 farms in little old Connecticut. That sounds pretty good. Except the demographics suck.
The average age for farmers here is 57.6 years. The largest single farming age-category is 65 and older. There are just 76 Connecticut farmers between 25 and 34 years old.
"We have to start changing that," insists Nichki Carangelo, "otherwise there won't be anybody left [to farm]."
Carangelo is one of a new wave of Connecticut farmers hoping to revolutionize the face and dynamics of growing food in this densely populated, mega-urbanized, prohibitively land-expensive state of ours.
She's 25 years old. She and her life-partner, Laszlo Lazar, dream of having their own farm some day. But they have no idea how they could possibly come up with the money to bid for agricultural land in a place where a 20-acre family farm in Madison can run you $1.3 million.
"Right now, there's no way we could afford to buy anything here in Connecticut," says Carangelo. "We're so priced out of the market that it's insane."
The indirect route Carangelo has mapped out to achieve her farming dream involves aging farmers willing to become mentors and lease arrangements where labor can help replace cold, hard cash.
Kathryn Redford, 27, is another of these new-wave agriculturalists. But she's taking a very different approach: Redford is growing mealworms and other insects to feed both animals and humans. And she's doing it in her New Haven apartment.
Other new-generation farmer wannabes are hoping to pool their talents and resources into cooperatives. There's also talk of "incubator farms" on state land where new farmers could get experience and support on start-up plots.
No matter which of these strange new agricultural roads is taken, the going is never easy.
"It's a steep, uphill climb" for young farmers, says Susan Willis, one of Carangelo's mentors and partners. She owns Bitta-Blue Farm in Killingworth, a six-acre operation that Willis has been working for 35 years. "I don't see how any [would-be farmers] manage to get a good start."
Willis, who is 65, works side-by-side with her young protégé on her intensively farmed vegetable-and-dairy-goat operation. In return for labor, Carangelo gets half the profits from the veggies grown at Bitta Blue.
In addition to the huge challenges of high-cost land, new farmers in this region are also up against an industrialized food system that has basically frozen most local farmers out, Willis says.
The farming census statistics show how much Connecticut's agricultural landscape has changed. The number of farms has risen (from about 3,500 three decades ago to nearly 5,000), but the size of farms has dropped from an average of 130 acres to 83 over that same time period. And the total amount of land under cultivation has plunged by more than 50,000 acres — a decline of about 11 percent from what it was in 1978.
There are some favorable winds blowing for Connecticut's new breed of small, organically oriented farmers. Willis says the Internet has made it easier for farmers to directly connect with consumers, and rising interest in locally grown, healthy foods at restaurants and farmers' markets is helping.
Carangelo, a Waterbury native, is counting on that new "locavore" demand for high-quality, organic food. She's also counting on people like Willis and Kelly Goddard and Kingsley Goddard for assistance and farming expertise.
The Goddards own the 20-acre Barberry Hill Farm in Madison, where Carangelo and Lazar are renting a 10-acre back pasture where they raise "pastured" chickens for meat. (Carangelo's website explains that pastured chickens actually get to peck and feed in fields. "Free-range" usually means birds have some sort of access to the outdoors, but rarely get to hunt for bugs and seeds and stuff in a real farm pasture.)
"They don't charge us any money," Carangelo says of the Goddards. "In exchange, we do work on their farm."
While Carangelo splits her days between Killingworth and Madison, Lazar helps out when he's not working part time on a third farm in Cheshire.
The chickens they're raising in Madison start out as chicks they bring in from hatcheries in Missouri and Pennsylvania. They plan on raising five batches of 75-80 birds each, putting them out to pasture, doing their own slaughtering, and selling directly to people at the farm.

President Obama's plans are to appoint 32 Czars within his administration. These are people about whom Congress does not advise or consent, and about whom the press is conveniently incurious. So far, the press thinks they're all just brilliant and they have no problem with a president appointing 32 Czars accountable only to him.
Whadda you think of that? You comfortable knowing that these "czars" escape serious but are given some rather potent power with little oversight?
I mean, come on…can you imagine if Bush had named 32 czars, while also "shredding the constitution" with all those policies Barack Obama is keeping place?
Can you imagine Bush naming almost three dozen czars while Michigan faced 15% unemployment, the deficit was topping a trillion bucks and a healthcare plan that no one who is being honest actually thinks is anything but a mirage was being shoved through congress, unread and undebated? And while
Harriet Miers Sonia Sotomayor, who looks to be rather underwhelming, was being ushered to her seat on the SCOTUS? Would the press really be so quiet if this were going on under a different president? Would the left?
Would you?
They're all interesting characters, so far as I can see. The energy czar hasn't bothered to read the Cap and Trade Bill, but she's you know…the Czar.
I don't like it much. I know we've had a handful of "czars" in the past, but there has always been a sort of twinkly irony to the title – until now. Take a look at the damn list and ask yourself how you feel about seeing the word "czar" used without irony, over and over again, in reference to an American administration.
An Information Czar? A Pay Czar? A Copyright Czar? A Great Lakes Czar? An Urban Affairs Czar? Oh, look…a Terrorism/WMD Czar!
You feel good about it? I don't. I see all those czars, and I know there are more where they came from, and that our nation is going to devolve into a sort of stagnant bureaucracy filled with connected elites on one side, handing out the goods, services and medicines, and the rest of us on the other side, putting our dreams away as we stand in line, hoping we will get what we need, and dreading the news that no…our sick grandmother is not worth saving. No, that third pregnancy is not allowed; too hard on the planet, based on these flawed and fraudulent and "fundamentally wrong" and flim-flamming hoo-hah and clearly "unsettled" sciences and lies that some have worked so diligently to sell.
Kinda wants to get me down on my knees, praying to a merciful God who should long ago have lost patience with us, and has never much liked others playing God for themselves.
Let's start with a couple of prayer requests…Please pray for 6 year old Ethan, who has just been diagnosed with Giant Axonal Neuropathy (GAN) which is a rare genetic disorder. This disorder will slowly take away his ability to move, talk, see and think. Life expectancy is 20-30 yrs. I was asked to share this link to promote awareness.
Also, please keep 29 year old Liz in your prayers as she undergoes her treatment for a brain tumor.
Do you know, there are people in the world – and this won't surprise you – who think that if a kid like Ethan is going to have a difficult life, he should be "spared" from it all by taking that life away from him, that doing so would be both "compassionate" and would help keep government coffers in the black? It does not matter to them that Ethan's life is the life he has; they would not like that life, and so they think he should not have his life, either. Plus he is taking up room on the planet and costing money for a life that isn't going to be productive enough "for the people."
Do you know that there are people in the world who think a vibrant, beautiful 29 year old who has been given a poor prognosis should probably just be encouraged to take a few pills, lie down and die. That "easier" and "kinder" way is deemed by some to be more "sensible," because they do not understand the value, meaning and mystery of suffering.
And heavens – they're all so smart that if they don't believe there is value or dignity to be found in our suffering, then there mustn't be any!
The New York Times blares a headline, and they sound very excited, like Pravda announcing a new, glorious day: "Why We Must Ration Health Care". That's going to translate into "heathcare for Upper West Side Me and Mine, but not for Middle Class Yours and Thine" sooner than any of us realize. Obamacare hasn't even been passed yet, but that's a mere formality. In the heads of the elite press-progressives, they're already there, and the rest are already deciding whose life is worth it, and whose is not.
"Bi-polar and over 50? Fat, Anemic and over 60? Didn't go to Harvard and you have asthma? You're just a plumber, and you need a valve replacement? Please go to the Edward G. Robinson Room, that's right, the one with the big green door and the projector, the classical music and the red pill. No, the red pill! Thank you for serving your nation and "the people" by not putting up a fuss about staying alive."
Here is a helpful video on rationing.
Bookworm expounds on the creepy, weird and troubling, "let's just kill people and force abortions to save the earth" sorts that our president is naming as czars within his administration. Writes Bookworm:
People of goodwill have always envisioned a place in which everyone lives in harmony and material comfort. War is gone. Hunger is gone. Each community is a perfect amalgam of density and space, allowing for high functionality and rural aesthetics that flow effortlessly into each other. Heaven on earth.
The only problem with this whole Heaven on earth thing, of course, is those pesky humans. Humans are erratic. Some have the temerity to be born smart and some dumb; some are placid, some feisty; some strong, some weak; some submissive, some aggressive. Whole cultures are poisoned by these variables. The people who keep giving into their base human nature are making perfection impossible.
For many, the solution to these impossible humans has been a strong hand: Hitler promised perfection, as did Mussolini, Lenin, Mao, Pol Pot and Stalin. Humans — damn their imperfect hearts — could be corralled into virtue, and if corralling didn't work, killing would suffice.
Given the effort it takes to force humans to be perfect, all of these Statists, without exception, realized that some humans simply weren't worth the effort it would take to perfect them. They were in the way. How much better, then, simply to rid the world of them before they even became nascent. The was Margaret Sanger's plan. Hitler liked that idea too. Through a combination of genocide (Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, etc.) and sterilization (the generic "unfit," although quite a few, my uncle included, came in for genocide too), he was acting with the best will in the world. How else, after all, could he make the world a better place for his good Germans? And undoubtedly, if asked, he would have said, "What's good for the Germans is good for the planet."
Do read the whole thing.
And then, if you missed it, read this surprising piece.
More on Obama's Creepy Science Czar. Not comforting.
Glenn Reynolds talks about the Hidden Costs of National Health Care, and it's a terrific read.
Obama: Buck Up, America and take your medicine.
At Instapundit a debate as to whether or not this bill outlaws private insurance. It's all a big guess, though, right? Since they're not letting us see the bill, even though Obama promised we'd get all that sunshine and transparency, and five days to read things online before they're voted on? Right? More here.
Ed Morrissey has more
Ann Althouse – who voted for Obama, by the way – wonders Why the Democrats won't give us a chance to see the healthcare bill.
Blue Dog Dems: may "bring Pelosi's healthcare plan down". It's Obama's plan. He's the guy out there selling it.
Michelle Malkin wonders: if the blue dogs have any bite, and she tells you who to call.
Jimmie Bise Jr: The People's Glorious Healthcare
Jules Crittenden: Breaking America's Healthcare to fix it. I wonder if Pelosi is going to be using the same coverage I'll get?
Gateway Pundit: Video and lots of links
Mememorandum: has all the links. I'm gone for the rest of the day.
Maggie's Farm: Says folks been played for suckers.
Push the healthcare through before the public finally clues in, and it's too late!
Let me say this again – because some people seem unable to differentiate between "hate" of a man, and "well placed concern, maybe okay hate" of his suspect policies and the lack of any checks upon him by the press, or members of his own party – that I do not "hate" this president. But there is very little about his "lets not waste a crisis" presidency that I can support or trust. For some, my pointing out these things that make me uncomfortable is construed by them as "hate," probably because that's what they felt for the previous president so they can't believe I can object this much and not hate. I can't help what other people think, though. This is still America, and folks are free to think and believe whatever they like.

Legend of Dracula: The Succession of Blood (鮮血の伝承, Rejendo obu Dorakyuria: Senketsu no Denshō?) is an ability Vlad III gained through the distortion of his heroic legend, allowing him to alter his aspect to become the vampire modeled after him. In exchange for the sealing of his normal skills and Noble Phantasms, all attributes are boosted, and he obtains the capacity to shape shift into mist and assorted animals. Being in nature similar to a Dead Apostle, he possesses the Curse of Restoration and the Mystic Eyes of Enchantment, as well as weaknesses against daylight and holy symbols.[1]
- ↑
[] Fate/complete material IV: Extra material - Fate/Apocrypha - Vlad III, p.304-305 English | Japanese
Vlad III, the Lord Impaler
He is the lord impaler of the Principality of Wallachia. Motivated by a love of his nation and a duty to maintain its sovereignty and power, he purged all who would oppose its interests. Though there is an aura of danger about him, he in fact possesses a modest and considerate personality; but his opinions and unrestrained manner of expression lend easily to the impression that he is a sociopath who has disengaged himself from the standard mores of society. He tries to ignore the reputation of the vampire modeled after him in a mature manner -- but somehow, representations of him that he comes across will end up being destroyed.

This is the real man (1431-1476) who was the model for the legend of Dracula. He had a very clear sense of justice but was also brutal, as he executed about one fifth of the population of his country through his life. His homeland, Wallachia, was a small country stuck between the large nations of Turkey and Hungary. He led a tragic life, during which he murdered his father, buried his older brother alive, and went to war against his younger brother. His war against Turkey was a desperate battle including guerrilla warfare and scorched earth tactics, and several times, he left mountains of Turkish enemy soldiers he impaled. He was captured in Hungary due to political circumstances, and spent 12 years in prison. Then, in 1476, he turned his back on Orthodox Church and converted his country to Catholicism; the same year, he died in battle against the Turkish army and his younger brother Radu. He was 45.

Within a range of 1 kilometer, a maximum of 20 thousand pikes can gradually manifest over time, bursting from the ground to impale opponents. Manifested pikes remain as a physical barrier that eliminates free ground, and evasion thus becomes less likely with passage of time. The sight of the pikes impose a curse-like psychological effect, destabilizing an opponent's mental condition with oppressive anxiety or fear.
- Legend of Dracula: The Succession of Blood
An ability gained through the distortion of the Servant's heroic legend. The Servant can alter his aspect to become the vampire modeled after him. In exchange for the sealing of his normal skills and Noble Phantasms, all attributes are boosted, and he obtains the capacity to shapeshift into mist and assorted animals. Being in nature similar to a Dead Apostle, he possesses the Curse of Restoration and the Mystic Eye of Enchantment, as well as weaknesses against daylight and holy symbols.
- Class: Lancer

No, in Pennsylvania wine is sold only through state-owned stores or by
PA-based winemakers themselves. IIRC, these "vending machines" aren't
exactly the stick-your-money-in-and-get-the-bottle type. You have to
show your driver license or state ID to the machine and wait for
approval from a state bureaucrat who is remotely monitoring the
machine. I'll be glad if this state ever stops treating its citizens
like subjects, but I'm not holding my breath.

For 22-year-old engineer Ian Schon, none of the options on the table were for him. So what is an enterprising young tinkerer to do? Why, design his own pen, of course!

Micky Parsons' X Factor dream shattered as District3 bow out
Posted: November 12, 2012|
ONLY one of our region's X Factor finalists proved they were The Best Of British this week, after District3 bowed out of the competition.
The trio – which includes Cleethorpes' Micky Parsons, 18 – found themselves in the bottom two again after failing to secure enough public votes with their interpretation of Eric Clapton's Tears In Heaven.
The trio chose Bruno Mars' Just The Way You Are as their save me song, as they fought against fellow boyband Union J for their place in next week's show.
After Louis refused to send either of his acts home, it fell to the remaining three judges to decide their fate.

Gary said what he thought would be a "simple" decision was complicated by District3 giving "one of their worst" vocal performances so far in the sing off – opting to send the boys home.
Nicole also voted to keep Union J, saying she felt they were "more mature" and "ready for it".
Although her opinion was rendered academic, Tulisa said she would have saved them.
The boys thanked everyone for their "amazing" experience and all those who had voted for them throughout the competition.
The results came as a shock, as the female judges were impressed by their return to their vocal harmony roots, with Tulisa describing it as their best performance in the competition so far and a tearful Nicole Scherzinger praising the strength of their harmonies.
However, Gary Barlow was less impressed, telling the trio he believed they "didn't have the edge" of rival boy band Union J.
And the voters clearly agreed. Micky's father, Steve Parsons, said: "We are so pleased they have got this far in the competition.
"They have worked really hard and I am sure their music career will kick-start from here."
The weekend went better for Tetney's Ella Henderson, who admitted she is "feeling the pressure" of being the only girl left in the competition – but was determined to bring "girl power" to the proceedings.
The Best Of British theme brought additional challenges for the 16-year-old, who took on a stripped back version of Tinie Tempah's Written In The Stars.
As reported, Tinie helped to secure Ella her place in the live shows, after appearing at Judge's Houses as Tulisa's guest judge.
Gary Barlow said: "You're what this competition is all about."
Nicole described her as "one righteous babe" while Louis Walsh repeated his assertion that Ella is the best female singer the X Factor has seen since Leona Lewis.
Tulisa said Ella had been "epic" but urged all her fans not to sit back and assume she was safe.
And on Sunday, The Daily Star claimed leaked X Factor voting results showed she was in danger of being in the bottom two.
Her delighted mum, Michelle said: "I think Ella did a fantastic job, she always does, and she makes every song her own.
"This is something that she has always wanted to do, and every week she seems to be getting better and better."

How do I find my man's "G-spot" and intensify his orgasms? I want to give him the same extraordinary pleasure he gives to me.
Dear "T":
Congratulations on your attitude. If there is one secret to a great sex life, it's the spirit of giving and receiving. The simple fact that you want to give back what you get makes you a superior lover.
The female Grafenburg spot, or G-spot, is a region that when stimulated can produce intense pleasure and sometimes orgasmic response. In women, it's found about one-third up the vagina, toward the front, and is often thought of as the urethral sponge. In men, there really is no identical "spot." In the book Total Sex: Complete Guide to Everything Men Need to Know and Want to Know About Sex, based on an extensive survey done in Men's Fitness magazine, the authors allude to the male G-spot as his prostate gland. The prostate is found by placing a well-lubricated (and, perhaps, condom-covered) finger inside the anus. Once you feel the sensation of pushing against a walnut-sized lump, you have reached the prostate. Pressing or rubbing it creates an intense pleasurable sensation for most men.
Most Americans have such a negative attitude about anal touch that the whole idea of rubbing his hot spot that way may be more than you can bear. However, if you wish to give your man the "same extraordinary pleasure" he gives to you, stimulating his prostate is what you want to learn how to do. Because this gland has so much nerve conduction to the area, it's easily aroused, often resulting in an intense orgasm. Obviously, this is a great way to let your partner be in pure receptive mode, something that many men find a relief and a delight.Answer:

Relating to believers of Islam.
Webster Dictionary
see Moslem
A Muslim, also spelled Moslem, is an adherent of Islam, a monotheistic Abrahamic religion based on the Qur'an—which Muslims consider the verbatim word of God as revealed to prophet Muhammad—and, with lesser authority than the Qur'an, the teachings and practices of Muhammad as recorded in traditional accounts, called hadith. "Muslim" is an Arabic word meaning "one who submits to God". Muslims believe that there is no other God but the one true God who is referred to with the name Allah. God is eternal, transcendent, absolutely one, and incomparable; that he is self-sustaining, who begets not nor was begotten. Muslim beliefs regarding God are summed up in chapter 112 of the Qur'an, al-Ikhlas, "the chapter of purity". Muslims also believe that Islam is the complete and universal version of a primordial faith that was revealed at many times and places before, including through the prophets Abraham, Moses and Jesus. Muslims maintain that previous messages and revelations have been partially changed or corrupted over time, but consider the Qur'an to be both unaltered and the final revelation from God—Final Testament. Most Muslims accept as a Muslim anyone who has publicly pronounced the Shahadah which states, "I testify that there is no god except for the God, and I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of God." They also believe that Muhammad is the Seal of the Prophets and the final prophet. Their basic religious practices are enumerated in the Five Pillars of Islam, which, in addition to Shahadah, consist of daily prayers, fasting during Ramadan, almsgiving, and the pilgrimage to Mecca at least once in a lifetime.

Tributes have been pouring in from across the country, following last week's tragic school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut. But a Sandy Hook tribute song by a rock band from Seneca Falls is now going viral.
Let's be honest: you don't expect a touching tribute, from a rock band whose first hit, was titled "Heartless."
"In that song, I scream the word 'explode' as the first lyrics of the song," said Jon Lamanna, vocalist.
This is the unapologetic rock band, "Cry to the Blind." And if you're somehow missing their softer side, you're in for a surprise.
"I wrote music to it, and I actually didn't show it to the band for about two years. Because I didn't think they would like it, it's not typical of what we do," Lamanna said.
The song is called "Night Light." It was recorded only a month ago, as an acoustic project.
But after Sandy Hook, inspiration took hold.
"I got a text message from my guitar player," said Lamanna.
"I was laying in bed, I was watching the TV, and I said, "I gotta let Jonny know, we gotta try to make a video out of this," said Matt Spaker.
"We just got the ball rolling all in one day. We really just put it together... and it came together great."
Any meaningful song transcends its own music and lyrics. It takes hold of us on a personal level.
For Jon and Matt, that meant dropping their front as musicians and looking for the light in their other job: as fathers.
"The song that we did, and the video, it really helps people feel better and stuff," said Lily Matty, Jon's daughter.
"It's just kind of a common thing, but it's still really sad," said Maizy Spaker," Matt's daughter.
"If that's the perception of a nine-year-old, that it's common for someone to come into a school and shoot a bunch of innocent people, let alone a bunch of innocent children – then there is something wrong with our society," Jon said.
"But then she looks at that video, and then it almost triggers in her brain: here's the faces of these kids and these teachers, she begins to really get it," said Matt.
From time to time, many of us may have lost our way in the dark abyss of tragedy. Sometimes, even adults need a night light.

Beyond The Box: A Modern Home in Brussels
A young couple build a striking house outside Brussels that imbues classic modernist forms with color, wit, and an unconventional attitude toward family life
By Gisela Williams
Verney Family
Even from the outside, the Verney house stands out like a woman wearing edgy Alexander Wang among a flock of matrons in classic twin sets. The front façade is the meeting of two Tetris-like rectangular blocks; one is made of a light-gray treated concrete and the other is an enormous mosaic of darker-gray stone tiles. With its lack of windows or formal entrance, the house looks like an abstract contemporary fortress.

Ahead of the Nov. 23 matchup between Manny Pacquiao and Brandon Rios, HBO 2 will air Pacquiao-Juan Manuel Marquez III and Rios-Mike Alvarado I on Nov. 15 and 16.
Vic Darchinyan on Nonito Donaire: "I'm going to come and expose him and show to all of the world that I can beat him, and not only just beat him, but I can beat him easily."
Manny Pacquiao and Brandon Rios will be featured on HBO's 24/7 beginning on Saturday in advance of their Nov. 23 welterweight fight.
The flyweight battle between former titleholders Giovani Segura and Hernan Marquez lived up to the expectations of hardcore fans, with Segura scoring the KO in the waning moments of the 12th round.
Brandon Rios: "I love to hit somebody in the face. To me, it's better than sex. To me, boxing is better than sex. That's my orgasm. I f–kin' love this sport so much."

Brandon Rios expects to be faster and lighter on his feet against Manny Pacquiao as a result of working with Alex Ariza, but and his trainer, Robert Garcia, don't discuss strategy with the strength and conditioning coach.
It appears that someone will be getting knocked out during Saturday's middleweight clash between WBA titleholder Gennady Golovkin and Curtis Stevens.
Brandon Rios on Manny Pacquiao: "He's in there with a live dog, he's not in there with a little puppy… I'm going to be a motherf___ing pit bull mixed with a Great Dane, mixed with a Rottweiler, mixed with a Bull Terrier…"
Manny Pacquiao on the Brandon Rios fight: "I never go looking for the knockout, but you can be sure after getting careless with Juan Manuel Márquez, I won't be setting myself up for getting knocked out."
Adrien Broner on what to expect from his upcoming bout with Marcos Maidana: "You're going to see an electrifying victory from Adrien 'The Problem' Broner. You will see why I'm the lottery pick to take over this sport."
HBO's Face Off With Max Kellerman will feature Manny Pacquiao and Brandon Rios in advance of their 147-pound clash in Macau on Nov. 23
Manny Pacquiao said that he predicted Tim Bradley's victory over Juan Manuel Marquez, and that he is "okay" with his stoppage loss to Marquez.
The late Emanuel "Manny" Steward trained Thomas Hearns, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr., Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis, Wladimir Klitschko and Mike McCallum among his seemingly endless list of current and former world champions.
Tim Bradley, Juan Manuel Marquez and the others fighters on their nine-bout card on Oct. 12 tested negative for banned substances, according to the Nevada State Athletic Commission.

No action on issue of residency
School board questioned where student lived
KENT — The Board of Education has opted not to take any further action against a family who it felt were not residents of the town but sent their son to Kent Center School for four years.
Chairman Paul Cortese issued a statement last week from the board that explained that no action would be taken. "After the decision of the impartial hearing board and a subsequent appeal to the state Department of Education, the Board of Education considers this issue closed," the statement said.

The end result will be any child from anywhere in the state can go to any school he or she desires. Like it or not, this is where this state is headed "

ALBANY. N.Y. -- Important testimony on day six of the Joe Bruno re-trial involved two former business partners.
The trial of the former State Senator revolves around what Bruno did, or didn't do, to receive hundreds of thousands of dollars in consulting fees.
Prosecutors say the money was a bribe, and there was little evidence presented Monday to explain otherwise.
Robert Brumley and Chris Downie, who ran companies Bruno allegedly consulted for, were on the stand Monday. Brumley and Downie both testified they had no idea why they were paying Bruno, or what work Bruno was doing for them.
The defense and other witnesses have said the only person responsible for Bruno was the big boss of those companies: Jared Abbruzzese. But even he testified last week that Bruno never completed much consulting work for more than $300,000 in compensation.
Monday's witnesses also offered more hints at why Abbruzzese may have ended the consulting relationship in 2005 having to do with the FBI investigation to his and Bruno's "true" relationship.
Bruno was warned repeatedly by his senate ethics lawyer, Frank Gluchowski, to make a hard record of his consulting work. But no record has been presented at trial.
What's more, Gluchowski said Bruno failed to disclose a conflict of interest. This, although Abbruzzese owned Evident Technologies, a company in the process of receiving grants from the state -- grants Bruno had approved.
The defense, in effect, also blamed Gluchowski for not doing enough homework, and leaving the senator vulnerable to a conflicted deal.
The former Senate ethics lawyer continues on the stand Tuesday.

Investcorp eyes $500 mln in PE deals in 2 yrs
The fund has already completed five transactions worth about $500 million since its inception in 2007.
October 20, 2010 12:32 by Reuters
Asset management firm Investcorp's $1 billion private equity fund expects to make five to six transactions in the next two years as it seeks to deploy remaining part of its commitments and is mulling the launch of another fund, a top executive said
The fund, named Gulf Opportunity Fund I, has already completed five transactions worth about $500 million since its inception in 2007, in sectors ranging from consumer goods and services to logistics, distribution in the infrastructure space and energy-related businesses.
"We have a strong pipeline. Based on broader base of deal flow, I believe we'll invest $400 million to $500 million in the next 24 months," said Azmat Taufique, a managing director and co-head of its Gulf Growth Capital business, the firm's private equity arm in the region.
Investcorp may also launch another fund in the next 18 to 24 months though there are no immediate plans, Taufique said. "$1 bln was the minimum for first fund, and we'd like to grow. It's (a new fund) unlikely to be under $1 billion but whether more than that is difficult to tell," he said.
The global financial crisis dealt a big blow to Middle East private equity as deals dwindled and investors shied away but signs of a revival are increasing hopes that the half billion dollar industry will bounce back.
Private equity investments in the region plunged 80 percent to $561 million in 2009, Gulf Venture Capital Association data showed recently.
"Yes, there was a significant slowdown in PE deals in 2009 compared to say 2008. But in the last two years, we have completed five transactions which from any perspective is not a bad track record for us to be setting," he said.
The Bahrain-based firm, which once floated luxury brands Gucci and Tiffany ,invested about $98 million in October 2008 in Redington Gulf, a distributor and service provider of IT and telecom products in the region.
Some of the firm's other investments include a stake in Middle East gold and jewellery manufacturer L'azurde and a 20 percent stake in Gulf Cryo, a manufacturer of industrial, medical and specialty gases in the Middle East.
The fund may begin to look at exit options for some of its investments in the next 12 months, Taufique said, adding that he was looking at a range of options, including initial public offerings (IPOs) as a mode of exit.
Investcorp suffered its first full-year loss in 2008/2009 as the financial crisis hit its hedge funds business and portfolio companies.
Like a number of Bahrain-based investment houses, it had to raise over $500 million in new capital last August.

Today marks the anniversary of losing my soulmate to a rare genetic disease. I miss him everyday, & the last few days have been increasingly harder leading up to today. I'm a tough resilient bitch when I need to be, but I just don't have the strength for it today.
My heart, my soul, my love, my life. ...forever my Antman.
Vibes, good mojo, happy dances, prayers & the like are appreciated. Thanks.
