It is really hard too apply this nail polish! It is way too runny, and it takes about 4 coats to make it opaque enough. Now nail polish is all over my fingers...The finished nail looks ok with the "sorbet" look.
If it was easier to apply I would give it another star

I love this color. I bought it on sale thinking it was orange-y red. It looks nothing like it does in the bottle. It's a sheer poppy pink (I use 3 coats). I love it on my feet, but I really love it on my fingers. It looks a little different in different lights...sometimes it looks like a neon pink (not cheesy 80s neon pink) and sometimes it looks like a true poppy pink. I feel like your pink options are either super light, barely pink, reddish pink, or pepto bismal pink...this was the pink I was looking for.

I just bought this today and I going to return it and buy a different polish. I know this is a "jelly" or "sorbet" finish...whatever you want to call it, but I can't get the damn thing to be opaque-ish at all. The tips of my natural nails aren't uniformly white and I hate having them show through.
I will admit this is a nice color but my Peach Daiquiri from Essie looks like an opaque ringer for this color. That being the case alone would make me return this, but in this case it isn't the only reason.
I attempted two times to paint my nails with this color and I know sometimes you have bad polish days. You know the days were you can paint and repaint your nails a million, gagillion times and keep messing them up? That's sorta what I'm talking about, but seriously I had these little wiggly fingers of mine painted with a top coat and like two hours later they just mushed. The first time I was literally able to pull the top coat and the 2-4 layers of polish off my nail. I have had polish smear and chip, but never pull of my nail like half dried elmer's school glue.
I think if you like jelly finishes give this polish a try. It is a pretty color and not a bad finish, but I just couldn't seem to get it to work for me, which is fine. I think I will return and buy a different orange OPI polish, perhaps Call Me Gwen-ever.

Honestly, the color is not my style. I don't know, I'm not a super fan of bright, neon-ish coral pink nail polishes like this one. My friend bought me this nail polish at a local salon for my birthday, and I'm not too pleased. The color is very bright, almost childishly bright. I know coral was in season for a while, as well, so it makes me feel really bad to write this. Also, it is very difficult to achieve the level of opaqueness that I usually can get with other OPI's that I own. Drying time is okay, a little on the long side, but nothing too bad. It lasts a while, which is nice, except I'm not a fan of the color haha. I imagine the price is $9, like any other OPI polish, which is acceptable. I really do like OPI, I just don't love this color. I probably will get negative feedback here on this nail polish review, seeing as all the good reviews got thumbs up...

Hmmm...I don't think many people are aware that this is a jelly finish. It's not expected to be opaque. (Just like matte polishes are not going to be shiny no matter how many coats one puts on) But OPI didn't label this as jelly so I kind of understand the low ratings. On to the review...
This makes my nails look like Jolly Rancher candies. Yum! Visible nail lines are to be expected. However, I didn't like the streakiness, so it took about 3 or 4 coats to cover that and the more coats the less it resembled candy...bummer :(

I hate to be the party pooper here, but I'm not a fan of this polish. I was expecting a beautiful slightly red, more coral/pink hue that I got from my first glance at the bottle (it seems similar to OPI on Collins Ave but more pink) but when applied, I'm left with a light to medium, very sheer coral/pink. Two coats is not enough, as it's practically see through. I think three may be more opaque, but this isn't enough to make me want to use the polish again. Who really wants to deal with three coats of nail polish? Not I. The color in the bottle isn't the color left on my nails.

I haddd to buy this since I live close to Galveston. Anyway, I think many people don't like the jelly/sorbet finish of this polish. It is definitely one of those semi-sheer polishes that shows your nail line in the sunlight. I, however, love jelly polishes more than any other. The color is beautiful and looks great on nails and toes. It's a pretty summertime color. This jelly has a pretty thin formula, which I like because it dries faster. I find that it does need a topcoat though, to make it extra shiny and pretty. If you prefer cream polish formulas, I have a Borghese one that is almost identical to this one in color, so you may want to check that one out next time you're at the drugstore.

My favorite part is the color! It's on the pinker side of coral, but I'd still call it a coral. This is my third day of wearing it and I have light chipping, had to redo my thumb nail because the chip got too big (this is two coats with top coat).
I'm not sure how much I love the opacity of it, which is why I gave it 4 instead of 5. Seeing it in the sun today really made me realize how sheer it is. I wish it was just a bit more opaque. I'll try three coats next time. I do quite like it, mainly because the color is just SO fantastic, and would still repurchase :)

I like this colour since it's a beautiful shade for summer. Also, a lot of the time I do have issues with colour chipping around the edge of my nails but this one lasted 4 days before serious chipping (usually one of my nails will have chipped by 2 days after polishing, even with base and top coats).
It took me 3 coats to get the coverage I wanted, which was a bit of a pain but at the same time the glossy finish and long lasting performance was well worth it.
I would re-buy another sorbet but it's probably a colour that's great for right now but I'll move on from....hence the no to re-buying. If you're a coral fan then I'm sure you would re-buy.

Love it. On me, it's a pretty close true coral. VNL does not bother me and in fact, I quite like the change from more "full coverage" polishes. I am going to pick up another sorbet (probably Houston We Have a Purple) and plan to keep my eyes out for new sorbets added in the future. And I ADORE the glossiness and ease of application!!!

Updated: April 12, 2014 6:17AM
College Baseball 2014
(2013 record in parentheses)
Lewis (33-18)
Coach: Tim McDonough (8th season)
Players to Watch: Jake Murray (Sr., OF), Ben Albano (Sr., OF), Kyle Kapka (Sr., C), Tom Helwich (Sr., P), Eann Cox (Jr., P), Kendall Paluch (Sr., P), Phil Warner (Jr. P).
Outlook: McDonough likes the makeup of his team, which will be trying to make the NCAA Tournament for the third straight year. Helwich (10-2, 1.95 ERA) should anchor the staff while Albano (7 HR, 39 RBI), Murray (10 HR, 29 RBI) and Kapka (26 RBI) will fill out the middle of the batting order.
McDonough: "We have to have consistency in all facets to have a successful regular season in order to even qualify for the conference or NCAA Tournament. We're expecting another solid season and to make another run in the NCAA Tournament."
Moraine Valley (13-26)
Coach: Cole Farmer (3rd season)
Players to Watch: Michael Levigne (2nd year, P), Kyle Belluomini (2nd year, P/1B), Jason Hine (1st year, SS), Mike Renken (1st year, 2B).
Outlook: The Cyclones will be freshman-heavy this season, but Farmer's squad has some talent to build off last season's disappointing 13 wins. Bouncing back from labrum surgery two years ago, Levigne (Sandburg) is working hard to be Moraine's ace. Belluomini will be counted on to provide pop on offense.
Farmer: "We're changing the attitude about not just playing games, but winning some college games. These guys have that attitude, just want to play. We've got some smart baseball guys with high baseball IQ who understand the game."
Prairie State (31-19)
Coach: Bill Storrs (3rd season)
Players to Watch: Bobby Sheppard (Soph., INF), Joe Prete (Soph., P), Carter Bialka (Soph., OF), Dan Ohde (Soph., INF/OF), Dominic Hartman (Soph., C/OF).
Outlook: Blending young pitching with a strong returning cast, Storrs is eager to see what his Pioneers are capable of doing. Sheppard, the reigning Illinois Skyway Collegiate Conference Player of the Year, has committed to the University of Buffalo. Prete will be Prairie State's ace.
Storrs: "I'm excited about this group; it's a great group of kids who are working hard. We've got to stay within ourselves, not try to do too much. Home runs can be few and far between, so we need to hit the ball on the ground and on a line, get on base and do the little things."
St. Francis (31-24)
Coach: Brian Michalak (3rd season)
Players to Watch: David Kuhne (Sr., OF), Joe Ruge (Sr., 1B), Brad Porter (Sr., OF/P), Jake Butler (Sr., P), Adam Panayotovich (Jr., P).
Outlook: The Saints are focusing on good, old-fashioned baseball with a reliance on pitching and defense. St. Francis already has played 21 games (9-12) this season. Butler and Panayotovich provide a solid 1-2 duo on the mound. Kenny bats leadoff and patrols center field while Ruge is an NAIA Gold Glove winner at first base. Both players are four-year starters.
Michalak: "If it sounds cliched, we're focusing on each game. We want to get ahead and stay ahead, and we need our pitching and defense to keep us in games. Our offense can score, scratch some runs across here and there. We'll find ways, knowing we're capable of winning all our games."
St. Xavier (23-18)
Coach: Mike Dooley (22nd season)
Players to Watch: Scott Vachon (Sr., P), Chris Klein (Sr., P/RF), Brad Myjak (Sr., OF), Tom Keating (Sr., 1B), Jim Augle (Soph., OF).
Outlook: The Cougars will try to send longtime coach Mike Dooley out on top. St. Xavier has dropped seven of its first eight games this season, but Vachon (7-0, 3.19 ERA last season), Keating (28 RBI), Augle (26 runs, 25 RBI), Myjak (27 RBI) and Alec Barnhart (28 runs) will try to get the team back on track.
Dooley: "The expectation level is high. We've got a good core of seniors who want to go out on top, and our goal is to win conference. We'll have a stretch of 12 games in nine days coming up so we'll have a good feel of where we're at in terms of strengths and weaknesses."
South Suburban (30-26)
Coach: Steve Ruzich (28th year)
Players to Watch: Steve Letz (Soph, OF), Dominic Albanese (Soph., OF), Ben Santori (Soph., P), Matt Hoge (Soph., SS), Cody Moskovsky (Soph., C), Stefano Belmonte (Fr., 3B), Ryan Waaso (Fr., P).
Outlook: The Bulldogs return a strong core in the field and in the batting order, but the key may be how the pitching staff develops behind Santori (Marian Catholic). Ruzich likes his team's strength up the middle. Albanese bats leadoff and patrols center, while Hoge is a reliable shortstop.
Ruzich: "We're going to be really young on the mound with Santori the only returning pitcher, so we're going to need some young pitchers to step up. I like our freshmen pitchers, and they're going to get better, get that consistency."
Trinity Christian (25-24)
Coach: Justin Huisman (4th season)
Players to Watch: Danny Britt (Sr., P), Pete Krygsheld (Sr., INF), Joe McCaw (Jr., OF), Brad Kopale (Jr., IF/P), Mark Munizzi (Jr., C), Steve Brewer (Sr., IF).
Outlook: Huisman said his team's bread and butter will be its pitching and defense, Britt is solid at the top of the rotation. The Trolls have eight seniors on the roster.
Huisman: "It's difficult to simulate being outside, so you do the best you can until you can get out there. We lost some good seniors from last year, but we've got some different players who are ready to produce. Our offense will be a work in progress, but our goal is to be playing in the postseason."

Game Of Thrones Hockey Jerseys: Direwolves And Dragons UPDATE: Order Window Is Closed
This order is now closed. Stay tuned for more Game Of Thrones-inspired hockey jerseys in the coming weeks. Thanks to those who ordered!
No ETA on when the Direwolves jersey will return, it is such a popular item. I'm thinking next Winter.
Posted on February 1, 2012, in Geeky Hockey Jerseys Available and tagged browncoats, Game Of Thrones, Geeky Hockey Jerseys, hockey jersey. Bookmark the permalink. 36 Comments.
The GoT designs are awesome because they included the house name or a play on it. Direwolves is obvious, but dragons are everywhere in fantasy. I liked the crest better when it featured Targaryen.
I'll be scraping together couch cushion change for the Direwolves… Do you think "Winter's Coming" will fit? =)
Yeah, I was hoping it had the 'Team' name, too! :-(
What about 'Conquerors'?
"Aegon Targaryen, the first of his name, also known as Aegon the Conqueror"
I'd rock that out with either 'TARGARYEN' or 'STORMBORN' on the back!
As The Emperor would say…."Do it!"
I love the addition of ' Dragons' to the new Jersey! Especially due to the 'O'. Nice touch, matching it with the 'O' in Direwolves.
Thanks! I will be ordering one of those for sure…..Then patiently – and anxiously – waiting for THE NIGHT's WATCH jersey next month!
Very cool, I vowed I would not miss ordering when they came back, so order placed!!
Lets see the Night Watch design,,,may have to order another…
well, I'll need to see it first,I'd have picked up a Dragons jersey had its colors been reversed-too much red for my tastes, looks sharp though-just wouldn't on me
Does this design of the Direwolves jersey NOT include the NHL-esque shield on the back that says "Winter is Coming" ?
TARGARYEN looks the best to me for team title! These are really cool and I will also be scraping change out of the couch for one or if hidden treasures I may find- both of these great jersey designs. Awesome as usual.
Any update on whether 'Winterfell' and 'Winter is Coming' can be added? It would really add to the jersey design
Dave, why do you tempt my wallet so!?
On a side note, how does the design-to-production process work? You mention changing the design. Will there be different versions of these produced depending on the current design when ordered? Or do you gather the orders first, settle on a final design and then go to production?
Keep up the awesome work!
Shame about the youth sizes… :-(
My wife will be upset. She likes to have them nice and close fitting! She wears it more like a shirt than a jersey.
Just discovered these, cant believe how awesome they are I want to order all of them! But I'll probably have to hold out for a Lannister jersey. Hey Dave, any chance at a Rohan jersey in the future?
Alright, order placed,invoiced,paid,card charged-Any idea when Rinkgear will be shipping these?
By the by I'll second the notion on LoTR jersies
Any chance of a Hunger Games jersey? That logo in gold on a jersey with some kind of fiery red or orange as the primary would look sweet.
i so want one. i cant believe i saw this a week late.

Allison wants to hire Zane Donovan, a brilliant young particle physicist, to help Stark and Henry research the universe's earliest moments using a Chaotic Inflation Device that can, essentially, re-create the Big Bang. Zane, however, has just been arrested for stealing 3.1 million dollars from the government. As a result, Allison orders Jack to keep Zane in custody until he proves that he can be trusted.
Jack locks up Zane and, at Lupo's suggestion, fits him with a high-tech tracking bracelet that can also deliver mild electrical shocks and activate a restraining field if the prisoner tries to escape. In response, Zane cheerfully makes mischief. He grosses Jack out about Vincent's grilled chicken, flirts with Lupo and hacks the sheriff's office computer from within his jail cell. He pauses in his antics only when, on a trip to Global Dynamics, he's awed by the Chaotic Inflation Device.
On schedule, Stark and Henry activate the device, which will take 24 hours to build up to the Big Bang. That massive explosion must be contained by layered particle fields, which Henry must monitor closely. The next morning, however, Jack finds Henry laughing at cartoons while the protective fields weaken. Allison and Stark are also goofing off. In fact, Jack discovers that most people at Global are acting like kids - and pretty wacky kids at that.
Only a few scientists still have brainpower, and none of them knows how to fix the collapsing containment fields. One, a veterinarian named Dr. Emily Glenn, determines that the affected scientists have critically low levels of G.A.B.A. - gamma-aminobutyric acid. Loss of this neurotransmitter can cause Alzheimer's-like symptoms. Because specific types of radiation can diminish G.A.B.A., Jack wonders if Zane tweaked the Big Bang experiment to emit such radiation. Unfortunately, he can't ask, because Zane has just used his technical brilliance to ditch the tracking bracelet and break out of jail.
Zane's genius, however, is no match for Jack's common-sense police work. Soon back in custody, Zane swears that he would never sabotage the Chaotic Inflation Device, because it's too important an experiment. Choosing to believe him, Jack urges Zane to act generously and save the day. Zane agrees, but with only 43 minutes until the artificial Big Bang occurs, there may not be time for him to fix the containment fields. Meanwhile, Dr. Glenn proves that radiation isn't causing the scientists' mental decline. Even if Zane succeeds, Jack must still discover what's causing Eureka's epidemic of silliness.

Cocoa Prices Hit 32-Year High
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Cocoa futures leaped to a 32-year high Friday as a disputed presidential election continued to rock the world's number one cocoa producing nation.
Cocoa prices for May delivery settled up $61, or 1.8% at $3,499 a metric ton. Cocoa traded as high as $3,511 a metric ton Friday, hitting a 32-year high for a most actively-traded contract, according to Bloomberg data.
The Ivory Coast continues to be embroiled in political turmoil. The conflict involves Laurent Gbagbo, a ten-year incumbent who refuses to step down, and Alassane Ouattara, who declared victory during the country's 2010 presidential elections, and wants Gbagbo to formally resign.
On Jan. 23, Ouattara ordered a cocoa export ban to restrict the flow of funds to Gbagbo. The action was supported by both African and Western leaders who believe that Ouattara is president-elect and that Gbagbo must step down.Quattara indicated that he intends to extend the cocoa export ban for another 30 days if Gbagbo continues his resistance. Rodger Wegner, the secretary general of the German Cocoa Trade Association has expressed concern about the impact an extension of the ban would have on already tight cocoa supplies.

Dwight Howard picks Houston Rockets, Vegas adjusts championship odds
Howard follows in footsteps of Hakeem and YaoFollow The Linemakers on Twitter
Published: Jul 06, 2013
Dwight Howard has apparently decided to sign with the Houston Rockets. Although no press conference has been held to announce the specifics of the deal, a person close to the situation told USA Today Sports, who then broke the story Friday afternoon.
Las Vegas sports books had already done some tinkering with their odds to win the 2013-14 NBA Championship when rumors began surfacing last week about Howard's plans, but now that it's rumored to be official, they can go all-in with the odds move rather than just the precautionary adjustments on multiple teams that also included Golden State and Dallas as well.
"I don't see this as being that big a deal for Houston," said Wynn sports book director John Avello, "but it was still enough for us to drop the Rockets from 20-to-1 down to 12-to-1."
Avello isn't one of Howard's biggest fans and doesn't believe adding him to the mix elevates them over teams like Oklahoma City and San Antonio in the West.
"There's no doubt about his defensive abilities, but I would have concerns in other areas beyond the free-throw line, such as his lazy attitude and constant complaining. That type of stuff gets old after a while."
The Rockets were already a playoff team prior to the signing with James Harden averaging 25 points-per-game last season, but the adjustment on the Rockets is more about staying ahead of public perception on the Rockets. No matter how you feel about Howard, he does make Houston better.
As for the Lakers, Avello stayed put at 15-to-1.
"Now they've (Lakers) got some money to fill in some missing pieces, and if Kobe gets back 100 percent with Pau Gasol being a focal point again due to Howard being gone, there might be better chemistry," said Avello. "I wouldn't count out the Lakers just yet."
Kobe Bryant is coming off surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon injured during an April 13 game and is shooting for a return to action in November or December.
The LVH Super Book moved the Rockets from 15-to-1 down to 12-to-1 after the news. Last week they had moved the Rockets from 25-to-1 down to 15-to-1 on the probability that Howard would choose the Rockets.
However, the LVH isn't as confident as Avello is about the Lakers improving by subtraction. They've raised the Lakers' odds from 40-to-1 all the way up to 100-to-1, the highest odds ever offered on the Lakers in Las Vegas prior to a season beginning in at least 34 years, or since Magic Johnson became a Laker.Follow The Linemakers on Twitter

Something To Be Tamed by KJ Kabza
Written by KJ Kabza
Four Allarchians locomoted slowly across the neighboring backyard, dragging a tarp between them. I watched them through the biggest crack in the fence. A naked man lay in the center of their tarp, on his back and unconscious. The lines of his ribs were clear beneath his old scars and soldier's tattoos, and I guessed that he had been holding out alone somehow all this time.
Poor bastard. He wasn't going to like this.
The Allarchians kept at it. They're not so good at dragging things, since they don't have skeletons. Landsquids, we had called them, when they'd been nothing but one of the curious alien creatures seen from a distance, watching at the edges of our freshly-established colony. How funny, we had said, as we dug wells and planted crops. Not so funny when they showed up one day with technology in their tentacles, ready to dismantle everything.
The man on the tarp suddenly flailed. The Allarchians looked at each other. Months I've been living in my owner's yard, and I still don't know how they communicate. Ultra-high frequency sound? Pheromones? Telepathy? "Jesus, Mary and Joseph," the soldier moaned. "What is this? Where am I?"
The Allarchians released the tarp and backed away. One of them locomoted to the end of the yard, near the back fence, where a human-house was waiting. The man's one-room cottage was smaller than mine. "Where the hell are my clothes?" he asked, as he rolled off the tarp. He tried to stand but couldn't. "Wait. Is this–?"
The Allarchian by the human-house placed a tentacle on the swinging door and used his (her? its?) suckers to pull it open. I couldn't see the inside from where I stood, but I knew what the cottage would contain: a nest of soft cloth on the floor, for sleeping, and all kinds of miscellaneous junk stolen from the colony, dumped in without system or sense. "No!" the soldier shouted, groggily. He tried to stand again and fell to the yard's carpet of moss. "No! Whatever you want with me, you slimy bastards–"
"They won't hurt you," I called, from behind the crack.
He jumped. It was enough to make him fall over. "Who are you?"
"I'm David. Your neighbor." I smiled. "Nice to meet you."
"My neighbor?" The soldier got to his hands and feet, turning in a circle like a dog, watching the Allarchians watching him. "What the hell is this?"
"That's your yard," I said. "The cottage there is your human-house, for sleeping in. They'll feed you four times a day, which takes some getting used to, but with the longer days here it works out."
The soldier stared at me. His attention gave me a flutter of pleasure. "Actually, I'm really glad you're here," I said. "The guy on the other side of me owns three humans, and I see them chatting together, but we don't really click and I don't talk to them much. And it's not like the Allarchians can speak English. Or talk at all, probably."
The soldier kept staring. "So we're slaves."
I turned around and gestured at the back of my neck. "I don't know if you can see this through the crack, but–"
"Jesus, is that a brand?"
Behind me, the moss rustled with the locomoting of tentacles. My owner. When she reached me, she curled a pair of green-spotted tentacles around my waist and placed an eye against another fence crack.
"Oh God," said the soldier. Only now did he sound afraid.
"They don't make us do anything," I assured him. "They just like to watch. That's why the toilet and shower pipe are out in the open, there, on the other side of your yard. They especially like to watch us shower. And the water is warm, so that's nice."
He put a hand to his mouth.
"They do let you wear clothes otherwise," I went on. "You'll probably find some in your human-house, though they won't fit well. The Allarchians don't really understand clothing."
A silence fell between us. The three Allarchians by the tarp in the soldier's yard swiveled on their tentacles and looked at my owner. She looked back at them.
"You like it." The soldier spoke in a whisper.
"We're not being enslaved or murdered or eaten," I pointed out. "It could be a lot worse."
"You like it." He tried again to stand, and this time, succeeded. "Jesus. What have they done to you?"
My pleasant mood began to falter. "Nothing. Look–it's really not so bad. They take artifacts from the colony and give them to us, and eventually you'll probably get a pocketmedia for some entertainment. I even got some of the printed books. Last week she gave me a ball and a set of jacks. You find diversions."
"I don't want diversions." His incredulity was turning into panic. "I want to get out of here!"
But instead of listening, he lunged for the nearest Allarchian to attack. Its skin turned iridescent blue before it brought up its tentacles. You might as well try to wrestle pythons as physically attack an Allarchian, but I gave the soldier credit for trying.
Thirty seconds later, he was wrapped in its arms and screaming. "Let me out! Let me out!"
A second Allarchian withdrew a short, white tube from a small item bag it carried, and tapped the soldier on the neck with it. He went limp and quiet. The Allarchians rolled him back onto the tarp and finished dragging him into his human-house.
My owner turned and looked at me. I looked back at her. We still had no means of communicating, but I'd like to think that with eye contact, we could still exchange that most simple of social-creature messages: We are sharing this moment.
I spent as much time watching Soldier-Boy in the next few weeks as his new owners did. First he spent several days in a cycle of hiding, pouncing, and being put into unconsciousness. Four times a day, his caring owners cautiously entered the yard and set out food; four times a day, the soldier would try to attack them somehow. He eventually figured out that long-range weapons were better for this. In turn, the Allarchians took away everything in his human-house except clothing, so he'd have nothing to throw at them. When he found that they'd taken all his objects, he took to throwing rocks. Then the Allarchians quit feeding him altogether for a while. By the look of him, he didn't have much fat to burn, and I figured this would calm him down pretty quick. It didn't. It just made him come to me.
"Give me something," he begged in a whisper, through the big crack in the fence. "Please. For the love of God. Anything. Do you have a spare piece of fruit? A handful of nuts? My stomach's eating itself."
"Quit throwing rocks at your handlers, then," I said. "You'll get all the food you want."
I wanted the soldier to like me. Really. I'd been in that yard for 5 months, by my reckoning, with nobody to answer back, and even a paranoid soldier neighbor was much better company than no company at all. But he had to learn that a battle with the Allarchians was one he couldn't win. Otherwise, how could he ever be happy like this?
He finally relented to taking the food they left him, but only by picking up the tray and carrying it back into his human-house, to eat in privacy. Soon he switched to a nocturnal schedule, so he could shower and shit unobserved, too.
"Why are you doing this?" I'd call through the crack in the fence, on nights I couldn't sleep. "Come on. Aren't you at least a little curious about them?"
"No," he'd snarl. "I know enough."
I told him about my owner, hoping that he'd be a little more receptive if he knew what one of them was actually like. I guessed she was female, I said, though I really had no way of knowing. She lived alone, unlike most other Allarchians. I was her only human. I was not allowed in the house, but she often came outside to watch me or keep me company. She loved being in my human-house with me and watching me interact with objects. Her tentacles were muscular and supple, and pet me very gently.
"She what?"
"She pets me."
The soldier stepped back from the fence in horror. On my side of the crack, the moss was worn down from my habitual observation, but on his side, it still grew thick and springy. "You let those things touch you?"
"I let dogs and cats touch me."
"But that's not–these aren't–" His face twisted in anger and discomfort. "Look, you might enjoy being manhandled like some octopus baby, but I don't want those slimy arms anywhere near me."
"They aren't slimy. They're smooth and dry, like snakeskin. And if she wanted to hurt me, she would've done it long ago. I'm telling you, they like us."
He shook his head. "We aren't people to them. Doesn't that matter to you?"
"Well, sure it does. But–"
"And doesn't freedom matter to you?"
I paused. I knew what I was supposed to say, but I didn't know that I believed it. What's freedom? As far as I could tell, freedom meant what had happened to us when our generations-old ship, and everything we'd ever known, had finally landed. It meant I could open the hatches and walk on natural ground, and sure, I got to walk anywhere I wanted–and planets go on for miles and miles (and thousands more)–but freedom also meant I had to burn vegetation, and clear the ground, and plow it, and plant it, and dig irrigation ditches, while everybody around me had to do the same thing or something similar. Freedom meant that I could look up at the open sky for five minutes and marvel, while I had to spend the rest of my waking hours concentrating on taming the dirt. Is that really being free, or just trapped in a new way? And if there's no such thing as freedom, what does it matter how my life is spent, as long as I'm decently happy?
"Never mind," the soldier said, turning his back on me and stalking to his cottage. "I think I know your answer."
The next day the soldier's owners hosted a gathering. Scores of Allarchians arrived at the house next door, parking their soundless vehicles up and down what I could see of the adjacent street. The high windows of the house soon filled up with fanned-out, hanging clusters of Allarchians, like starfish clinging to the sides of fish tanks. I watched the suckers of strangers pulse, the occasional unpeeling of a guest, expressionless faces staring round at each other. Rainbows of color and pattern pulsed over skin. A few of them moved out into the backyard. "Hi guys!" I shouted, thought I knew by now they never responded to speech.
A tentacle touched my hand. I looked over at my owner, who locomoted a few feet away from me, then turned and looked back. She did this several times. This is their only action whose meaning I've been able to figure out–"follow".
To my great surprise, she led me through the gate to the side yard, and from there, to the road. I stopped several times to look around me and stare, overwhelmed by the newness of the same houses and giant ferns seen from a different angle. Slowly, she coaxed me into my neighbor's yard. Then she looked at me and went inside the house.
I stood there uncertainly. What did she want me to do here?
The swinging door to the human-house behind me made a sound. I turned. Soldier-Boy was standing in the doorway, groggy with sleep, blinking and suspicious. He eyed the crowded house behind me. Instinctively, I turned to look, and saw that we had gotten a number of Allarchians' attention. "What's this now?" said the soldier.
"I don't know," I confessed. "Maybe this is… um… a play date?"
He snorted. "If ever I were desperate enough to play with you, it would not be in front of all these… all these whatever."
"We call this planet Allarch, right?"
He mumbled something I didn't catch, then said, "David, right?"
Hearing my name gave me a flutter of pleasure. "Yeah."
"I'm Ramesh. Come inside."
I entered his human-house. They still hadn't given Ramesh anything but clothes, so the space was uncomfortably barren. The nest looked tidy, though. "I don't know how long we have, so let's make this quick. Do they ever let you visit anyone else like this?"
"No. This is the first time she's even let me out of the yard."
Ramesh swore. "I was hoping otherwise. We could've used your greater freedom to organize."
"We? Oh. Other humans."
"Yes, other humans." He scowled at me. "You got people living on the other side of you?"
"Yes. Three Allarchians, three humans."
"Good. I got two on my other side. You talk with them at all?"
"Not much."
"Are they interested in organizing?"
I considered. "They used to talk about it. Now, not so much. I don't really know anymore."
"Would you give them messages from me?"
I hesitated.
"God damn it!" said Ramesh, kicking a discarded sweater. It was tiny, a sweater for a child. "What's wrong with everyone? Is it the food? Something in the water? Because the people on the other side of me don't give a damn either. This whole damn neighborhood is crawling with us, and what do we do? Sit in our little clubhouses and wait for some daily tentacle circle-jerk?"
I made a face. "I don't know what the people on the other side of you do with their owners, but–"
"A figure of speech, David." He kicked a lone shoe, a magnetic boot that was made obsolete when our ship touched down. "Though for all I know, in some houses that's exactly what happens."
"Ramesh…" I didn't know what to say, other than his name. "Ramesh…"
"We had a group of us up there in the hills," Ramesh said. "Did I tell you that? Maybe two or three dozen of us, we got away. Not a lot, but enough to keep the species alive. I was dumb. Went after some game too close to the old colony site. Got nabbed by some tentacled archeologist, or I don't even know. Look–I have to get back. Don't you get it? With so few people left, they're depending on me."
I hadn't known there were others. Now I really didn't know what to say.
"You have stuff in your cottage, right? Is there anything there you can use as a weapon?"
I stuck my tongue into a cheek. When I first moved into my human-house, I found, among the many random items, a bullet gun. My owner obviously didn't know what it was–she wouldn't have let me have it otherwise–but for two weeks I'd kept it hidden anyway, in my nest near my head, listening to my heart pound in the darkness and imagining the cold weight of the weapon in my palms. But I could never do it, and I knew it. I couldn't even bring myself to hunt game, when we'd first touched down. "I'm not a soldier," I said. "I can't hurt anyone. Even if they might deserve it. Which the Allarchians don't."
Ramesh stared at me for a long time, his hands clenched at his sides. Then his face contorted–more like in pain than in anger–and he shoved me.
I stumbled back, surprised, falling into the door and pushing it open. Ramesh stomped after me into the yard, his eyes a pair of rising flames. "Oh you can't, can you?" He pushed me again, harder. "Can't hurt anyone no matter what, can you?"
"Ramesh–Jesus, calm down. If you'd just listen to me for a second–"
"If you'd listen to me," Ramesh shouted, "you'd hear that not all of us want to die in chains, your treacherous piece of shit!"
Then he punched me.
I fell to the moss, feeling shocked. Then strangely betrayed. For a moment my body felt nothing; then the agony in my face rose to a roiling height, and I found it hard to breathe.
"Get up!" Ramesh shouted, because I was a much easier target than an Allarchian.
I didn't. I scuttled backward over the moss, ripping up pieces of it in my haste, expecting the Allarchians to locomote out of the house and pull him away from me. But they didn't. They just came to the windows and stared, watching two unfathomable aliens go at their unfathomable way of interaction.
Ramesh got down on the ground with me, to hit me again. I twisted away, but he still got me in the shoulder, and the impact made me fall flat on my back. He moved over me. I rolled onto my stomach, to see if any Allarchians were approaching now, but they just stood and stared, skins rippling with all those colors.
The soldier grabbed my neck.
My world dimmed into a storm of purples and reds. I couldn't breathe. Ramesh shouted in my ear, "You think I'm anything like you? Something to be tamed? Something that doesn't care how he lives and dies?"
The Allarchians finally came outside. But not to intervene–merely to get a closer look. I reached out to them, mouthing words, as Ramesh's speech muddled to a roar and the world turned black. But the nearness of the Allarchians must have unnerved my captor, because Ramesh finally let go, and I was left gasping atop the moss.
Behind me, the human-house door squealed on its hinges and wobbled shut.
The Allarchians watched me. I only noticed them as a ring of rippling color. I sucked in air, unable to get enough, and when I finally did; the pain in my face came back with a vengeance.
I wanted to cry. I didn't.
The Allarchians wandered back inside. My owner and one of Ramesh's owners remained, staring at me and each other for a long time, occasionally touching me with a probing tentacle. My owner touched my face where Ramesh had hit, much too hard, and I yelped and rolled away.
Her skin rippled yellow and silver. She locomoted a few steps up the side yard and turned to look back me. Time to go home.
Thank God.
Back in my human-house, I used a medikit I'd been given to examine myself. Bruised, but nothing broken. My owner examined me too, but not in the way of a doctor or veterinarian. Just the usual aimless, curious way. I might think she loved me, as all Allarchians loved their humans, but no matter what she felt, she could not understand what I needed.
That night, my palms sweating, I withdrew the bullet gun from under a pile of yarn. Then I set it by my nest.
Ramesh switched to a diurnal sleep cycle, but it wasn't because he'd broken. It was so he could play new games. He clogged the toilet; let the water in the shower pipe run, ripped up the yard's moss, pissed on the Allarchians' house–anything he could think of to inconvenience them. I kept watching him, but only when I thought he wasn't looking. I still wanted Ramesh to like me, but I was afraid to say anything. Even apologize.
About a week later, my owner led me to his yard again. I stopped in front of his side gate and refused to enter. She tried to drag me with a couple of tentacles, but I wouldn't budge, so Ramesh's owners came out to help. What must they think of me, standing by the fence and staring at Ramesh all day? They obviously knew that humans were social creatures. And they could tell that I was lonely.
"He wants to kill me," I yelled, but I knew they couldn't understand, because they picked me up and carried me inside.
I spent a terrifying hour huddled near the back door of the main house, watching Ramesh's human-house for any sign of activity. Ramesh's door did not open.
My owner finally led me home without incident, but she made me return the next day. And the next. And so on.
During the seventh day's visit, Ramesh finally came out of his human-house. I had gotten lazy about watching it, and was near his shower-pipe, passing my hand under the tiniest trickle I could coax the valve to make. Two of Ramesh's Allarchians watched me from a window. "Hey."
I started. Ramesh stood in his doorway, his expression stony. "This wasn't my idea," I said.
"I know. I see them drag you."
Now Ramesh watched me, and I found his gaze much more unnerving than the Allarchians'. Too self-conscious to continue playing, I turned off the water, dried my hand on my (too small, unbuttoned, ill-fitting) pants, and said, "I'll get out of your way."
Ramesh held up a hand. "Wait. I'm sorry about the other day."
"That's okay."
Ramesh put his hands in the pockets of his (too big, held up with a shoelace belt, ill-fitting) pants, and said, "If I can't kill any of them, I swear to God I'm going to kill myself. I can't live like this. Look–I'm a reasonable guy. I don't usually go around beating people up. Even if they're assholes and cowards. This place is making me insane."
I thought about saying, "Apparently," but just said, "Uh-huh."
"I really am sorry."
I nodded. "It was kind of funny–" I started to say, then stopped.
"Just…" I felt myself blushing. I felt strangely guilty for saying this, but the Allarchians couldn't hear me, so what did it matter? "It was kind of funny. In a way. That they didn't stop you from hitting me. I mean… if they value us."
Ramesh smirked, but it was a sad expression. "Does it make you change your mind about them?"
I didn't answer.
My owner came outside, her skin a steady purple, locomoting in a stop-start pattern toward home. I followed her, feeling Ramesh's eyes on my back along the way.
The next time my owner came to my human-house to lead me next door, I picked a random item from my cottage (in this case, a can of lime-flavored, carbonated sugar water) and carried it outside. I thought she might stop me from bringing something over to Ramesh's, but she appeared not to care, because she led me to the adjacent yard without reacting.
"I brought you something," I said to Ramesh, when he poked his head out of his human-house. "Here."
Ramesh took it. "Pop? Only kids drink this stuff."
I shrugged. "Or shake it up and spray it around if you get bored. I don't care."
Ramesh frowned and set the can by his nest. "Thanks."
The next time I came over, I brought a pencil. "What am I supposed to use this for?" Ramesh asked. "Scrawling escape plans on the wall?"
"Good idea," I said, though really, I didn't give a shit.
Then I brought him a digital wristwatch, wholly useless because it wasn't designed for anything but ship's time, in which a day had 24 hours. Next came a bag of marbles. Then a paintbrush. "Are you just unloading your crap on me?" Ramesh asked.
"I'm showing the Allarchians that you can have objects and behave," I said. "They'll start giving you things themselves, and you can be a little more comfortable."
Ramesh pressed his lips together and shook his head. "You really think you're helping me, don't you?"
"But I am helping you. Aren't I?"
Ramesh sighed. "I don't know, David. Maybe if I can rip up some clothes to make a slingshot and blind one of those tentacled bastards with a marble, then yes, you'd be helping me."
I thought of the bullet gun. I didn't mention it.
Ramesh's human-house began to fill with objects, things I'd taken him and eventually, things his owners began to offer. I hoped that actual amity with his handlers wasn't far behind, but Ramesh still became hostile when one of them entered the yard. I told Ramesh that I worried that his owners would get fed up and give him away–they still hadn't put a brand on him–but Ramesh had only laughed and said he hoped so, because that meant an opportunity to escape. "I've already explored the fence to death," he said, "and escape that way isn't an option. It looks rickety, but you can't break these boards with a fist or a foot, and in my yard anyway they planted the things deep. If I got led out of my yard every day, like you…" Ramesh glared at me in envious silence, but left the ending unsaid.
"If you could escape without killing anyone," I said, "would you do it?"
Ramesh snorted. "If it would mean I'd get away, then absolutely. How stupid do you think I am? Not all soldiers are murderous redneck idiots, you know."
"I didn't say that."
"You thought it."
"That's fine," said Ramesh. "I always thought you were a gutless coward, so I guess we're even."
"What if I have…"
"What if I have something you could… you know… use."
"Use to what?" said Ramesh. "Dig my way out? Or something I could use for a grappling hook to get over the boards?"
Why had I said anything? "It's a dumb idea. Forget it."
Ramesh's voice turned soft. "Do you have a circular saw? Something like that?"
I imagined bloody, shot-off tentacles writhing on the lush moss of the yard, and I couldn't help but shudder. I didn't want to think about these things, or about Ramesh leaving, and me going back to standing at the biggest crack in the other side of the fence, watching those three humans laugh and talk together without me. "No. It's nothing like that. And it wouldn't work anyway, so never mind."
Ramesh scrutinized me. His face was intense, still, as if he were stalking prey. "Tell me a little more about it," he said.
"Forget it. Really. It's stupid."
"No no. Let's hear your idea."
"I shouldn't've brought it up."
"You have it in your house, right?"
"I said, it would never work."
"Do you not know what it is? Is that it?" Ramesh's eyes gleamed. "Some of the more advanced weapons are hard to figure out. You should bring it over."
"No I shouldn't."
"If they've let you have it this long, then they don't know what it is. David." Hearing him say my name still gave me that disorienting ripple of pleasure, and I felt my resolve weakening. "Come on. Next time."
"I don't know."
"Sure you do. Won't you be glad to be rid of it? You mustn't like looking at it. Knowing it's there. You said you could never hurt anybody, right? You probably don't like that kind of thing lying around your house, right?"
I didn't trust myself to answer. I just shrugged.
When my owner came to lead me away that day, Ramesh stood in the door of his human-house, smiling and watching me go.
Ramesh began to hang out in his yard. But not casually, to let his owners watch him eat or relax or play with dead fern fronds. Ramesh only let his owners see him doing one thing: standing by the big crack in the fence, looking at me.
I knew why. And it was terrifying.
Ramesh didn't talk to me often, on his watch. When he did, it was with an eager, fierce heat that frightened me far more than his old outburst of violence had. "Don't worry. I'll look at that thing you got in your house. I'll figure it out for you. I'll be real discreet."
"If you come over," I said. "If they let you over."
"They will."
I wanted to believe he was wrong. But I didn't.
"Shouldn't you just run away?" I asked. "If you were let out of your yard? I thought you said you wouldn't blow a chance if you got it."
"I wouldn't." His grin widened. "I'll run on the return trip to my yard. Once I've got it with me."
Clearly, before Ramesh's owners led him over, I'd have to hide what he'd be looking for–even though I had nothing to convincingly offer in its place, and even though it would not go well if I gave Ramesh nothing at all. But I couldn't think of a fool-proof hiding place for the weapon.
And the only warning I got was a loud whoop.
I'd been sitting in my yard, finishing lunch. At the sound of Ramesh's ululation, I looked over at the fence and saw motion and color rippling beyond the cracks. Ramesh. Being led from the yard.
I abandoned the tray and ran into my human-house, panic crippling my reasoning. No time to think. I grabbed a random pile of womens' panties and tossed them over the bullet gun, hoping that old taboos and a conservative soldier's values could save me. What if I lied and said I liked to wear the things? Would he be too disgusted to look at them too closely?
My door swung open.
Ramesh entered, grinning. "David. How've you been."
"You're out of breath." He dropped the grin. "Have they been doing anything to you?"
"No. I was just…"
Ramesh followed my involuntary gaze. He smirked at the panties. "Got yourself a little collection? And here I'd been thinking all this time you were boring." Ramesh came closer. "Anything good?"
I stepped in his way. "I'm very embarrassed about it," I sputtered. "And I can't help it. I mean the Allarchians give them to me, along with all the other random stuff I can't use. I mean I haven't traded them with my neighbors yet. Don't–"
He pushed past me and kicked them apart with a booted foot. The panties scattered like wet leaves, and the black, ugly bullet gun skid over the floor toward the door.
It stopped. Ramesh and I looked at each other.
We both lunged for the weapon. I hit Ramesh and he hit me, and in a tangle of fists and legs we rammed into the gun and out the door. It had rained that morning, and the moss was damp. Cold soaked the back of my thin shirt as Ramesh rolled on top of me. I grabbed at the bullet gun and got a handful of mud. Ramesh grabbed my hand. I somehow got my other elbow into his throat and pushed him off, and when he rolled away, I reached again. My hand closed over the weapon's grip, and I realized I had no idea what to do next. Did it have a safety? Was it loaded? Wasn't I supposed to do something with the hammer on the back?
"David." Ramesh's voice was sweet. He rolled into a sitting-up position, palms raised and fingers spread. Mud was slashed across his neck, like his throat had been cut and filth had poured out instead of blood. "Take it easy."
"Don't move."
"I'm not going anywhere. I'm sitting right here." He was even smiling. "I know you're jumpy. We're all jumpy. Is that what you have?"
"It's mine." My fingers found a little button on the side of the bullet gun. I pushed it. Nothing happened, but Ramesh's smile faltered. "I'm not giving it to you."
"Is that your insurance policy against the Allarchians? In case they do something you don't like?"
"I'm not giving it to you!" My hands shook, but I wouldn't put them down. I couldn't. If I did, he'd pounce and take it, and he'd be mad, mad, mad at me for withholding it all this time. And then–?
"I didn't say you were," said Ramesh. "I'm gonna stand up now. Okay?"
I didn't answer. Ramesh stood up. He took a step toward me, slowly, the door to my side-yard at his back. "I'm coming a little bit closer, okay? My hands are still up. Listen, David. Just take a deep breath. I didn't mean to scare you. If this is the only weapon you got, and you want to keep it, I can't blame you. You don't have to give it up, even. Why, you can come with me, if you want, and be in charge of it the whole way. The new colony is only a few days from here. A week, at most. And we managed to salvage a lot. And since we're rebuilding the species, you'll get all the sex you can handle."
"Stop walking," I said, but it came out more like a croak. Wasn't I supposed to press the hammer? I couldn't press it, but I could pull it back.
Ramesh's smile faltered again. He slowed down, but he didn't stop moving. "Okay, David. Deep breath now. Breathe with me. Ready?"
I found myself doing it. I breathed with him. "…and out," said Ramesh, on the exhale. I exhaled. "Okay. One more time. Breathe in…"
Movement caught my eye. My owner, and one of Ramesh's, standing in the windows and watching us. Doing nothing. Caring? Wondering? Waiting? Who knew. I could never know, and they could never tell me.
"…and out," said Ramesh. He was near me now. Six feet and closing. Voice getting softer. "Feel any better?"
I straightened my arms, closed my eyes, and squeezed the trigger.
It was much louder than I'd expected. Like a bomb in my hands. The bullet gun kicked back at me, wheeling to the side like an animal trying to break away. I squeezed instinctively, in panic, and it fired and kicked again. I kept my eyes closed. I squeezed again, and again, until the bullets ran out and it died, a hot dead weight in my hands that would only make a flat click-click.
Then I dropped it onto the moss.
I opened my eyes. Ramesh was flat on the ground on his stomach, arms folded over his head. Beyond him, the supposedly unbreakable boards of the fence around the side-yard gate had shattered like glass.
Ramesh's arms unfolded. He dared to raise his head.
Inside the house, the Allarchians continued to stare at us, their skins rippling with browns.
"There," I sputtered. I couldn't raise my arms to point. I had trouble staying upright at all, in fact, so I just pointed with my chin. "There's your chance. I don't think the Allarchians heard a thing, and they can't see the whole yard from here. It'll take them an hour to realize the fence is broken and you've gone."
Ramesh got to feet. He stared at the gun, silent and muddy on the moss.
Then he raised his eyes to mine, his expression grave, and nodded once.
Ramesh turned and ran.
I stared after him. He rounded a corner and tore down the empty street. I could feel the Allarchians in the window still staring at me, and was dimly aware of their tentacles drifting up the glass, the way a child puts a hand against a portal window when peering out. As long as I acted calm, they wouldn't know something was amiss.
I turned and went inside my human-house, leaving the empty weapon in the mud.
When they realized the fence was broken, there was much panic. That is, I suppose it was panic. Several Allarchians came by, looking at each other and at the fence. They touched the fragments of it. Many Allarchians came to look at me, poking their heads inside my house, then staring at each other. At one point my door became impossible to open, and I concluded that my owner must've locked it. This made no sense to me. I could have run away, but I hadn't. Didn't she see that?
The lockdown wasn't lifted until later that night, well past dinner. I thought I'd wind up spending the night hungry until my door suddenly swung open. My owner stood in the doorway, skin rippling red and purple, holding a well-loaded dinner tray.
Beyond her, glaring construction lights stood around the broken fence, which had been temporarily patched with something like barbed wire. The brightly-lit yard was empty, and the evening breeze was balmy and sweet. She locomoted inside, the door swinging shut behind her, and set the tray beside the nest. Then she looked at me.
I knew what she wanted. I sat and ate, gratefully, while she lowered herself beside me and wrapped me in warm, supple tentacles. She stroked my back and hair. The tip of one tentacle touched my brand, hesitating, then gently stroked the scarred flesh.
"Of course I didn't run," I said. "You were scared, weren't you?"

MLC Men Lose 2-0 to UNW
NEW ULM, Minn. - The Martin Luther College men's soccer team was unable to generate a goal in a tightly contested 2-0 loss to Northwestern Saturday.
The Knights had the better of their chances in the first half when they played with the help of a strong wind, attempting nine shots and putting three on the goal, but were unable to push anything across the goal line.
The Eagles finally broke open the scoreless tie in the 76th minute on a goal from Sean Taylor.
As the Knights pressed late in the game to try to generate offense, Taylor scored his second of the game in the 88th minute, giving the Eagles the insurance tally they were looking for and the two-goal win.
Eric Hahn stopped seven of the nine shots he faced in net for MLC, while Ryan Lemke finished with a team-high three shots (two on goal).
MLC dropped to 4-13 on the season and 3-9 in the UMAC with the loss, while UNW improved to 9-9 overall and 9-3 in league play with the win.
The Knights will return to action Friday, October 31, when they travel to St. Scholastica for a game scheduled to start at 3:15 p.m.

Mission: Serving the flagship institution of the state, the LSU Libraries provides foundational support for the academic core of Louisiana State University. Library staff organize, preserve, and share resources to meet the information needs of the university community, providing access to resources essential to teaching, research, and service. Our buildings provide both the physical space and the intellectual environment for students, faculty, and staff to meet, engage, learn, and create new knowledge. Library staff go beyond the role of information gate-keepers, teaching important information literacy and research skills and proactively preserving our regions history and culture. Reaching beyond the university community, we extend information services to the state and make our unique holdings available to the world.
The LSU Libraries (http://www.lib.lsu.edu) offers students and faculty strong support for instruction and research through collections containing more than three million volumes, microform holdings of more than four million, manuscripts of more than twelve million items, hundreds of electronic databases, and tens of thousands of electronic books and serials. LSU was among the founding members of the Louisiana Online University Information System (LOUIS) network which provides access to most academic library catalogs in the state. The LSU Libraries' subject strengths include Louisiana materials, sugar culture and technology, Southern history, agriculture, petroleum engineering, plant pathology, natural history, and various aspects of aquaculture including crawfish, wetlands research, and marine biology.
The LSU Libraries belong to the Association of Research Libraries (ARL), which includes the top 113 academic libraries in the U.S. and Canada; the Association of Southeastern Research Libraries (ASERL); Lyrasis (a merger of SOLINET with PALINET); and the Louisiana Academic Library Information Network Consortium (LALINC).
Middleton Library houses the main collections. Assistance is available in person, virtually, and by phone. Guidance in using an academic research library is available by registering for LIB 1001 for one credit hour or by asking for assistance at one of the public service points. Also housed in Middleton are two collections: Carter Music Resources and Education Resources. For material not found in the Libraries, faculty, staff, and students may borrow materials through Interlibrary Borrowing.
LSU Libraries' U.S. Regional Depository Library and the U.S. Patent Depository Library collections are housed in Middleton Library. The Library has been a depository for federal government publications since 1907 and has a substantial number of U.S. documents issued before and after that time. The Library became a Regional Depository Library in 1964. The Library was designated an official depository for U.S. Patents in 1981. The patent collection includes all patents issued from 1871 to the present.
The LSU Libraries Special Collections in Hill Memorial Library provides a center for research in the humanities, social sciences, and fine arts. The primary strength of Special Collections resides in The Louisiana and Lower Mississippi Valley Collections, an outstanding integrated collection that consists of materials documenting the history and culture of the region. It provides rare and early imprints pertaining to the exploration and colonization of the region; books on Louisiana subjects; books by Louisiana authors; Louisiana state documents; extensive and prestigious manuscript collections, which include the personal papers of important individuals in the history of the region, including the Long family; records of business, professions, and organizations; and extensive photographic collections.
The University Archives, administered by Special Collections and housed in Hill Memorial Library, is the official repository for all permanent noncurrent records of academic and administrative units of the University. In addition, the University Archives is the office on campus charged with records management duties.
The Rare Book Collection is wide-ranging and eclectic in nature, with concentrations in 18th century English literature and history; book arts and the history of the book, including the Bruce Rogers Collection; New World exploration and travel; economic history; and science fiction and fantasy.
The E.A. McIlhenny Natural History Collection was donated to the LSU Libraries in 1971, in memory of Edward Avery McIlhenny, whose private library forms the core of the collection. Rich in ornithological and botanical art, it is an exceptional resource for researchers in the history of those fields. High points in this collection include the James Audubon's double-elephant folio Birds of America, and the "Native Flora of Louisiana" collection of original watercolor drawings by internationally renowned botanical artist Margaret Stones.
The T. Harry Williams Center for Oral History is part of the Special Collections. The Williams Center for Oral History was established in 1991 as an interdisciplinary program that supports and encourages the collection, preservation, and dissemination of the social, political, cultural, and economic history of Louisiana through the use of recorded interviews. Recordings and transcripts generated by the program and its affiliated researchers are deposited in the Louisiana and Lower Mississippi Valley Collections.
LSU Libraries Special Collections participates in the LOUISiana Digital Library (http://louisdl.louislibraries.org/) which highlights Louisiana history, culture, places, and people. Another online project is the Civil War Book Review (http://www.cwbr.com/) founded in 1999.

All the food is sustainably grown in North Carolina, a critical part of Hunter's dream.
"I wanted to serve food that I feel really good about serving," said Hunter, who developed relationships with local farmers while working and selling at the Western Wake Farmer's Market. "Working with farmers, you learn how much work they put into something and you can taste the difference. I feel really appreciative of those local ingredients because I know where it came from, who grew it and how it was grown."

Vidalia Onion and Goat Cheese Tart Serves 8
Tart Dough
Preheat oven to 400F
In the bowl of a food processor add flour, salt and cheese. Pulse the mixture until combined. With the motor running, add the butter in pieces until the mixture is crumbly. Add the water and process just until the dough comes together, about 10 seconds.
Turn out dough onto a floured surface. Cut the dough into thirds. Roll each piece of dough into a 12-inch cylinder and line a 9 inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Press the dough into the pan until the sides are about an inch thick. With a sharp knife, scrape off any excess dough from edge of tart pan. Place last piece of dough in center of tart pan. With the heel of your hand, press in the dough from the center to the edges until the bottom is evenly covered about-an inch thick. Let dough rest for about 15 minutes in the refrigerator. Prick bottom of dough with a fork and bake for 10-12 minutes or until dough is lightly golden in color. Remove from the oven and cool.
Tart Filling
In a food processor combine eggs, goat cheese, pesto, Parmesan, thyme, salt and pepper until smooth and thick. Pour the mixture into a prepared tart shell. Be careful not to overfill. Bake until the top of the tart is brown and bubbly, about 20-25 minutes. The tart will continue to cook when removed from the oven. Cool slightly before serving.
