"Great for disbudding time"
We use these to shave goat kids horn buds before disbudding. They work great on their little heads rather than the full sized clippers.
"Nice for the price!"
This is a great little clipper. I bought one about a year ago for clipping my average haired mare. It's perfect for keeping her trim looking fresh; not too loud and a good size. It hasn't needed another battery yet and the blade still cuts great. I keep it oiled and use a blade coolant/cleaner spray. I don't bathe my girl before clipping her but I do brush the sand out of her hair. I'd recommend this for light duty clipping and would happily buy another when this one dies.
"Works but dont expect long life"
I like these for quick touch ups on udders - I have show dairy goats. But they die quickly and when I tried to open it up to see if clogged and thats why it wasn't working, everything popped out and I cant locate how to put it back together. :( guess its not to big of a deal since it was dead anyway. But just that to say - don't expect to fix it on your own, or be careful everything explodes out.
"handy tool"
I have ordered at least 6 or 7 of these over the years.They are really handy and do great touch ups especially on ears and stomach and legs,but they don't last very long and are strictly for very light shaving.They clog easily.I ordered one silver pair that never did work,but I did not bother to send it back.They are inexpensive enough to order two and usually they last about a year.They are very handy for quick touch ups at a show.

Hello everyone.
I plan on doing a brood break for my hives very soon to help with varroa management. I was either going to:
1. remove the queen in a small nuc and let the hive requeen itself
2. cage the queen on the frame for 2-3 weeks.
For those of you using brood breaks to help with varroa management, any tips on which you think is the better way to go? Since I will have grafted queens to replace queens if needed, I don't necessarily need more queens. It would take a bit less equipment to give the brood break by caging the queen on the frame though.
Please share with me your experiences.
Thank you!

I never said Brady was bad, just not a goddamned G.O.A.T. People calling him that is what makes him overrated...
Also, the patriots further fell to 10-6 with Brady returning in 2009...

Last week I gave you fifteen marketing ideas. Read it here. You hopefully found a few very helpful and want to implement. However is time holding you back?
With 101 things to do when running or managing a small business - where do you find the extra time to add in something called marketing (rather than advertising) when there are so many other concrete activities taking up your time?
Here are five suggestions.
Time management
1. Get help
You can do anything you want, you just can't do everything. So get help to do the lower value tasks you have to do (such as administration, marketing, calling/reminding customers, cleaning the house/mowing the lawns) to free your time up to do the income production.
If you earn $90 an hour, why do the $20 an hour work? My suggestion for a first step is to get local students (use student job search) to help you on a small part time basis. Use them when you want, and you have lower per hour wages and no employment hassle or responsibilities.
2. Focus on best income earners
If one business activity provides a higher income on time/investment involved, focus your marketing in that area.
Use technology
3. Use a smartphone
If you don't have a smartphone already, get one. Not only are they coming down in price, they are the epitome of convergence, giving you at least 17 different appliances that fit in your palm. There are many ways you can use the built in Video camera, still camera, voice recorder, GPS system, internet, calendar, email, computer, alarm, stop watch, timer, clock, calculator, note pad, music player, book reader, photograph album, calculator..... for business. Oops forgot to mention phone.
4. Use SMS reminders
Almost everyone has a cell phone and it is a totally accepted mode of communication with your customers. If you work on appointments- each hour is an asset that once passed is gone forever. If you initiate appointment prompts (don't forget your 2:30 message tomorrow) you'll be able to lower your no-shows or late arrivals.
5. Systemise for immediate response
You can be very clever and respond to your emails and messages very quickly. You will have repetitive paragraphs you sms or email. Don't' forget your appointment; what days you have free next week, the like. In your phone notepad, write them out once and save. Then anytime you have to email or sms, copy the paragraph from your notes and paste into the email or sms. It will save you heaps of time, boost your customer service and help you book more appointments with minimum effort.

Beep! Beep! Beep! Meet Blue. A muddy country road is no match for this little pick up—that is, until he gets stuck while pushing a dump truck out of the muck. Luckily, Blue has made a pack of farm animal friends along his route. And they're willing to do whatever it takes to get their pal back on the road.
Filled with truck sounds and animals noises, here is a rollicking homage to the power of friendship and the rewards of helping others.

Reviews for this host's other properties
A great stay in the mountains for hikers. Quietly situated. Little sun and much cooler than elsewhere (lower) on the island. The bbq was not used and the heater was on. The yaccuzi roof made this stay for us, very successful. Nice and attentive host. A nice restaurant in the village, if necessary. within walking distance (half hour). Car is very desirable.
Een prima verblijf in de bergen voor wandelaars. Rustig gelegen. Weinig zon en aanmerkelijk koeler dan elders (lager) op het eiland. De bbq werd niet gebruikt en de kachel moest aan. De yaccuzi op het dak maakte dit verblijf, voor ons, zeer geslaagd. Aardige en attente host. Een leuk restaurant in het dorp, evt. op loopafstand (half uur). Auto is zeer gewenst.
We were in February 2014 for 10 nights in this farm. Friendly welcome and good care during the stay by Miguel. Daily fresh fruit and bread. Amenities Finca good and original. In the kitchen, 1-2 bowls would still make sense. Quiet location, unfortunately we were a bit unlucky with the weather and could not make the most of the cozy outdoor area and pool.
To explore Good starting point for hikes and around the northern part of the island.
Wir waren im Februar 2014 für 10 Nächte in dieser Finca. Freundlicher Empfang und gute Betreuung während des Aufenthaltes durch Miguel. Täglich frisches Obst und Brot. Ausstattung der Finca gut und originell. In der Küche wären 1-2 Schüsseln noch sinnvoll. Ruhige Lage, leider hatten wir etwas Pech mit dem Wetter und konnten den gemütlichen Außenbereich und Pool nicht auskosten.
Guter Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen und um den nördlichen Teil der Insel zu erkunden.
Lomo Caballo is a nice house. The screens on the windows are necessary and need replacing. There should also be a hor be placed in the bedroom. The garden chairs need to be repaired. Needed But also as I said it's a nice stay.
Lomo Caballo is een mooi huisje. De horren voor de ramen zijn noodzakelijk en aan vervanging toe. Er moet ook een hor in de slaapkamer worden geplaats. De tuinstoelen moeten nodig worden gerepareerd. Maar verder zoals gezegd het is een mooi verblijf.
A pretty, cosy house in very peaceful and quiet surroundings. Lots of good walking paths in the vicinity. Beautiful mountain scenery. Modest food shops and restaurants in the village a couple of kilometres away. A perfect place if you are looking for peace and quiet and nature experiences.
Very nice house in a small beatiful village in a vally surounded by mountains. If you want to get away from alle the tourist resorts, this is the perfect place. Do visit Rock Nublo, but be aware that you have to do a lot of mountain driving :-)
The house, with it's own garden, a small garage and a sun terrace (with barbicue) is a gem. Getting in/out of the garage takes some learning but do-able in a small car. There is street parking about 150m away. The house is large, a very relaxing house with a vally view to the sea from from the terrace. It was a pleasure to stay there. It is on a hill so keeps you fit. There is a small supermarket (but very good) within walking distance. Unlike may proerties, this house has enough space for 6 without being cramped or using temporary beds - it has three good bedrooms, a TV lounge, a large sitting room and a reasonable kitchen - perhaps a bit cramped for 6 in the kitchen, but it works. I have given 4 stars, the only reason not to give five is the hill acces for a car.If you use a big car - then you would need to park 150m away. Conclusion:- It is a lovely house and garden, well worth the effort of climbing the hill, secluded, not overlooked, a real gem.
The house was beautiful, with stunning views of the sea and the Teide volcano on Tenerife. Glorious garden and a warm housekeeper made our stay perfect. The only downside is the somewhat tedious Directions on the winding coastal road.
Das Haus war wunderschön, mit herrlichem Blick auf Meer und den Vulkan Teide auf Teneriffa. Prachtvoller Garten und eine herzliche Haushälterin machten unseren Aufenthalt perfekt. Einziger Minuspunkt ist der etwas mühsame Anfahrtsweg auf der kurvenreichen Küstenstrasse.
We had a great week at the Finca. The surroundings are beautiful and the house is built with lots of love and in top order. The owners were always approachable and have nice but unobtrusive care of us. Every time again!
Wir hatten eine großartige Woche in der Finca. Die Umgebung ist wunderschön und das Haus ist mit ganz viel Liebe ausgebaut und top in Ordnung.
Die Vermieter waren immer ansprechbar und haben sich nett, aber unaufdringlich um uns gekümmert. Jederzeit wieder!
We had a very nice week on Gran canaria. The house had a good size for us and the Telde area is very good if you want to make tours all around the island. It is almost necessary to have a car as the house is pretty far from everything. The house is nice with many rooms, a big bathroom and two small ones. There is a pool wich was nice for the adults but it was too deep for small children.
Very nice house for self catering offside and lonely situated among palm trees and orange trees in a mountain valley between. Directions has led us right to the house, although in between Zeifel arose. 2 restaurants and shopping for the most important place in St. Lucia (about 10 minutes). Enough to buy water. Trail to ponce around. Drive to Maspalomas 1 hour. Good starting point for trips in the interior. Good place to chill out, relax. DVD, Satellite, German and English books and Resieführer site. Plenty of cutlery, crockery and cookware.
Sehr schönes Haus für Selbstversorger Abseits und einsam gelegen unter Palmen und zwischen Orangenbäumen in einem Bergtal. Anfahrtbeschreibung hat uns richtig zum Haus geführt, obwohl zwischendurch Zeifel aufkamen. 2 Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten für das Wichtigste im Ort St. Lucia (ca. 10 Minuten). Genügend Wasser einkaufen. Wanderweg nach Tunte in der Nähe. Fahrt nach Maspalomas 1 Stunde. Guter Ausgangspunkt für Fahrten im Inneren. Guter Platz zum Ausspannen, Faulenzen. DVD, Satellitenfernsehen, deutsche und englische Bücher und Resieführer vor Ort. Ausreichend Besteck, Geschirr und Töpfe.

Surpassing Verizon, TracFone notches 1.1M net adds in Q4
Feb. 9 2011 - 6:03 pm - América Móvil's TracFone MVNO service netted a whopping 1.1 million new subscribers in the fourth quarter of 2010, finishing the period with a total of 17.7 million subscribers.
TracFone's net adds put it in the same league as some of the nation's Tier 1 wireless carriers. For example, Verizon Wireless (NYSE:VZ [1]), the nation's largest wireless carrier, recorded 955,000 total net customer additions in the fourth quarter, ending the period with 102.2 million "total wireless connections."
Such a comparison isn't completely fair, however. TracFone doesn't operate its own wireless network--instead, as an MVNO, the company essentially piggybacks on the networks of Verizon , AT&T Mobility (NYSE:T [2]) and T-Mobile USA, reselling their services under TracFone's brands, which include Straight Talk, Net10 and others. Thus, TracFone's net customer additions are also counted by its host carriers under their "wholesale" column.
Nonetheless, TracFone's stellar growth is notable. The company has grown its U.S. subscriber base from 14.4 million in December of 2009 to 16.7 million in September 2010 to 17.7 million at the end of the fourth quarter of last year.
As for TracFone's subscriber metrics, the company's minutes of use skyrocketed 219 percent year over year, from 94 in the fourth quarter of 2009 to 300 in the fourth quarter of 2010. TracFone attributed the growth to its Straight Talk unlimited service. TracFone's average revenue per user grew from $10 to $14 during the same period while its churn remained relatively unchanged at around 4 percent.

Great Coverage!
Straight Talk uses one of America's best networks, so you're assured of great coverage, fewer dropped calls and clear connections.
Whether you talk, text or send and receive data, Straight Talk's got you covered.

CTIA-The Wireless Association's statement on usage and cost for mobile phone calls
WASHINGTON, DC – CTIA-The Wireless Association® issued the following statement today in response to the OECD Communications Outlook report on usage and cost for mobile phone calls:
The headline from the recently released OECD Communications Outlook report reads that Finland, the Netherlands, and Sweden have the lowest prices for mobile phone calls among OECD countries, while the highest prices were found in Canada, Spain, and the United States. But since U.S. consumers enjoy the lowest per minute rates of all of the OECD countries, what today's OECD report really shows is that some international comparisons just don't make sense – especially when built on flawed assumptions.
The real story is buried on page 275 of the OECD report which states:
"It is important to note again that the OECD calling pattern in the basket can be significantly different than common calling profiles in a specific country. For example, the high-usage OECD basket includes 1,680 outgoing voice calls per year while users in the United States average 9,600 minutes of voice calls (combined incoming and outgoing) per year. In this case the basket provides the cost of buying exactly the calls and messages in the OECD basket rather than what may be considered a 'typical' bundle in the market."

UTEP Women Picked Second In 2013-14 Conference USA Preseason Poll
Oct. 8, 2013
Like UTEP Women's Basketball On Facebook
IRVING, Texas – The UTEP women's basketball team was picked second in the 2013-14 Conference USA Preseason Poll, as voted upon the league's 16 head coaches. Additionally, senior forward Kayla Thornton was tabbed to the all-conference preseason team for the second straight year.
"We have a lot of work to do," UTEP head coach Keitha Adams said. "We're excited to get our season started. We understand that we have several new members to our conference and every night out will be a dog fight."
The 2013-14 season will mark the 40th in program history. The Miners will be vying for their school-record eighth straight year with at least 16 wins. UTEP has not experienced a losing season since 2005-06.
UTEP returns four starters & seven letterwinners overall while adding seven newcomers.
UTEP will play host to the Conference USA Championships for the second time since joining the conference. The league's pinnacle event is slated for March 11-15, 2014.
The Miners are coming off their fourth 20+ win season in the past seven years. UTEP finished 22-10 & advanced to the 2013 Conference USA Semifinals in spite of having lost three key players to torn ACLs.
Sophomore Irene Gari (5.5 ppg, 3.0 rpg), junior Chrishauna Parker (9.0 ppg, 9.2 rpg & 3.9 apg) senior Kayla Thornton (15.3 ppg, 8.7 rpg, 61 steals) & senior Kelli Willingham (9.7 ppg, 2.9 apg & 2.8 rpg) return as starters from 2012-13.
Sophomore Cameasha Turner (3.1 ppg, 2.0 rpg & 1.0 apg) also earned a letter last year.
Sophomore Jenzel Nash is expected back after missing the entire 2012-13 season due to a torn ACL in an exhibition contest while senior Kristine Vitola was granted a redshirt after competing in just three games before also sustaining a torn ACL.
Reinforcements are also on the way for the 2013-14 campaign in the form of a seven-member recruiting class. Sophomore Agata Dobrowolska (member of the junior national team in Poland), sophomore Anete Kirsteine (2012 All-Jayhawk West second team & WBCA All-America honorable-mention), freshman Anzhelika Moiseychenko, freshman Sparkle Taylor (2012 & 2013 Associated Press Class B All-State team), junior & El Paso Stacie Telles (2013 Western Junior College Athletic Conference Second Team, 2013 All-Region 5 team & 2012 WJCAC honorable-mention) & junior Johnishia Welles (2013 All-Arizona Community College Athletic Conference Second Team, 2013 All-Region Second Team) should provide quality depth.
League newcomer Middle Tennessee State was tabbed as the favorite.

As a Ducks fan this bothers me greatly for obvious reasons. I am/was a Chip Kelly fan, and now I am forced to hope he crashes and burns in Philly.
I don't see how anyone can speculate accurately right now if he will be successful in the NFL or not, you just simply do not know.

Samsung NX300 and NX210 camera reviews: compact and well connectedBy Kevin Carter - Tuesday July 09 2013 Sensor Review
Samsung is one of the few makers with the capability to supply sensors for its own mirrorless cameras. The Wi-FI enabled finder-less NX300 and NX210 are just two of such cameras from the consumer electronics giant featuring an APS-C size 20.3Mpix CMOS image sensor. Read on to find out just how well these cameras performed in our lab.
With six models in the range currently, Samsung offers largest choice of cameras of any of the mirrorless makers. Each model features WiFi connectivity built in, accounting for the firm's choice of 'Smart' moniker but each model also shares a propriety APS-C size 20.3Mpix CMOS sensor. According to the firm this imaging sensor is notable for its large pixel structure resulting in more efficient light-gathering and higher sensor sensitivity, however detail is scant on sensor architecture. We've analyzed the performance of the mid-range $599 NX210 as well as the top-of-the-range $799 NX300. Among other features, this model adopts a slightly revised version of the sensor complete with an on-chip phase-detection AF pixel array, which promises faster autofocus even in low light levels.
Further readings for the Samsung NX300 and NX210 camera reviews: compact and well connected
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.

largest choice of any mirrorless system?
"We've analyzed the performance of the mid-range $599 NX210 as well as the top-of-the-range $799 NX300."
NX210 is not mid-range, it is last-generation of the same NXxxx line. Their current gen lineup is 3 cameras - NX1100, NX300, Galaxy NX. And the largest mirrorless system by far is m43, with only current generation including Olympus E-PM1, E-PL5, (E-PL6 in Japan), E-P5, E-M5 and Panasonic GX1, GF6, G6, GH3, BlackMagic Cinema Camera and Pocket Cinema Camera, and if you insist on including previous generations still for sale new, there are plenty more.
Added by XCLN | July 11 , 2013
Yes - but consider also the Fuji X-M1
Will be better than all these in IQ and low light capabilities, you can guesstimate based on the X100 sensor -the only one tested here last year.
Nowadays too the "old" Fuji X100 beats all these cams easily ("used" are really practically same as new )
Added by josa | July 10 , 2013
Aa a NX user, I am happy what I just read.

nx300: a great great camera
I've been using it for about 75 days and it's so much better than any other camera I used before. Low light performance is improved from the older nx200, but what is most evident is the processing speed and fast operations. Everything reacts in a millisecond and the hybrid af is gorgeous. Touch to focus and touch to shoot are also great features, along with focus peaking. Imo, this is the best mirrorless camera at the moment. If only it had tan evf in the same rangefinder like shape...

"Until the Kingdom Comes," photographs by Simen Johan
The almost-life-size photographs in Simen Johan's "Until the Kingdom Comes" series seem natural, but something is a bit . . . off. The initial images are captured in zoos and farms (sometimes using taxidermy and road kill), but then they're changed digitally (for instance, an old bison lies in a landfill). Johan says he intends to "confuse the boundaries between opposing forces, such as the familiar and the otherworldly, the natural and the artificial, the amusing and the eerie." The images are on display at Brown University's David Winton Bell Gallery, 64 College St, Providence. They say Johan's work is "part of an existential search for spiritual or philosophical truth. He sees his animals not as personifications of humans, or as animals as such, but rather as part of the universal spirit that encompasses us all." The exhibit runs through February 17 (Monday-Friday 11 am-4 pm, Saturday and Sunday 1-4 pm) | 401.863.2932 | brown.edu/bellgallery

Detroit Tigers ace Justin Verlander is among the many pitchers across the majors who have shown decreased velocity early this season, as Jeff Passan detailed in a recent story for Yahoo! Sports.
Verlander's average fastball this season has registered 93.2 miles per hour, according to PITCHf/x data on FanGraphs.com. That's his lowest mark in the seven seasons for which such data is available; his average last year was 94.7 mph.
Passan's research cited figures from Baseball Info Solutions (91.9 mph) and Brooks Baseball (92.5 mph), in comparison to Verlander's April 2012 reading of 93.8 mph, according to FanGraphs.com. So, the drop could be as much as roughly 2 miles per hour.
Verlander, 30, acknowledged Wednesday that he's aware his velocity is down. But he doesn't seem concerned, either. "The most encouraging thing is it's been picking up my last couple starts," he said.
Verlander, who said he feels completely healthy, pointed out that he's still building arm strength because he delayed the start of his offseason throwing program after logging 266 2/3 innings last year.
The 2008 season marked the last time Verlander's average fastball dipped below 94 mph, according to PITCHf/x. That was his worst season in the big leagues. But Verlander is better able to handle the decrease this season (however long it lasts) than he was then. His command and secondary pitches are far more advanced, and pitching in the low 90s with increased movement (especially early in games) has become a larger part of his overall approach.
Verlander's performance has not suffered to any noticeable degree. He's 2-2 with a 2.13 ERA in four starts this season, entering Thursday's intriguing matchup with Kansas City ace James Shields.

When in high school, I was big into power lifting competition (until my knee injury and 3 knee surgeries later....needing a new knee at 23 years old is no fun at all...). So, at that time I was a bigger guy, and they called me Beef on the football team. Outside of the football field, my nickname was Butterbean...for other reasons. Don't ask me how I got BeefyBeefo out of beef, but I've been using it for years and it's never already being used by someone else

Literature review Trafficking in human beings
2010-08-24 17:16:00.0
Download right click "save as"
This study aims at the deconstruction and analysis of the existing literature on human trafficking. The document divides itself into a summary, an evaluation, synthesis and comparison, and the critique of the existing studies and reports. The research is mainly based on recent studies from leading authorities, and high-prestige or high-visibility sources such as the university presses of highly ranked universities or articles published in the leading journals in the field of human trafficking from late 1990s. Nevertheless, studies from international governmental organizations, non-governmental organizations, think-tanks, governmental agencies and international newspapers have also been taken into consideration.The study did not focus on independent or freelance researchers or on human smuggling studies. Due to a restricted timeframe of seven months, only English, Italian, French and Spanish sources could be considered and analyzed.

Pueblo man pleads guilty to killing three Alamosa teenagers
PUEBLO, Colo. - A Pueblo man pleads guilty to killing three teenagers from Alamosa while driving drunk.
The three teenagers were in Pueblo for a church event April 28, 2012 when police say 37-year-old Gilbert Sanchez crashed into the girls' car. Sanchez had two teenagers in the bed of his truck. They were ejected out of the truck but survived. The girls in the other vehicle died.
At court Wednesday, Sanchez pleaded guilty to five of the 15 charges he faced. Margie Gonzales was in the courtroom to hear the fate of the man who killed her granddaughter, 18-year-old Anisa Montoya.
"This man took my only granddaughter. I will never have another granddaughter," Gonzales said. She made the trip to Pueblo from New Mexico so, she says, she could begin to heal.
"I needed to hear him say he was guilty," Gonzales said. "I waited 300 plus days to hear him say that and to say 'I'm sorry. I did it.'"
Sanchez pleaded guilty to driving drunk the night of April 28, when he killed three teenage girls. A roadside memorial on Pueblo Boulevard and Northern Avenue is a painful reminder of the three lives lost that night: Anisa Montoya, Serina Sena and Selena Mascarenas.
"No matter how we slice this pie, he was drunk. And for that he had to pay," Gonzales said.
Gonzales says her granddaughter was a faithful woman, well liked by everyone. She was student body president, just one month shy of graduating from high school. "One day I hope to see her, but today she's not here," Gonzales said.
Sanchez asked the judge if he could stay free on bond until he is sentenced so he could spend time with his children, but the judge denied that request.
Sanchez will be back in court May 17 for sentencing. He could face up to 68 years in prison.

I am a freelance Carnival costume maker, Samba dance teacher and life model. I've worked up and down the country teaching both Carnival costume making and Samba dance in various schools and at events. I mostly work in Nottingham and the surrounding areas as a life model. I've dabbled in chocolate making and will hopefully be launching something along those chocolaty lines this Autumn. Yum. Everything I am or have dabbled in is self taught, gleaming whatever information I can along the way from specialists and enthusiasts alike. I like the contrast of dance and making versus life modelling. It's taken me a while but I am now challenging myself in every way I can.

Fade In - Men's Hair Styles

The fade is a haircut that proves classic style never dies. Here's how to make it work for you.

Before we bust out the scissors, let's talk terminology. A "fade" haircut is one in which the hair at the sides and back of the head is cut very short—usually short enough to see the skin underneath—with the hair gradually decreasing (i.e., fading) in length, starting out long at the top of the head and ending up short near the ears and nape of the neck. The fade can be traced back to the bons vivants of the Roaring Twenties, who made it the defining do of the decade. The style has been around ever since, cycling in popularity about every 30 years, most recently with barbers across the country reporting an increased demand for the Darmody—a version worn by the eponymous character on HBO's Boardwalk Empire. It's obvious why the fade has never faded away: It's easy to ask for and easy to take care of, and its endless variations fit almost every hair type and face shape. Although any barber worth his pole can make the fade fit what mother nature gave you, here's what you need to know to look your dapper best.

By now you've probably already heard that our friends at the POC (People of Color) Zine Project are leaving for a 14-day tour starting today. We couldn't be more excited.
In November 2011, we partnered with POC Zine Project and Barnard Zine Library to produce "Meet Me at the Race Riot: People of Color in Zines from 1990-Today," a panel and corresponding zine show at Barnard College. After the event, Daniela Capistrano, founder of POC Zine Project, immediately started planning their 2012 tour, Race Riot!, with fellow Meet Me at the Race Riot participants Mimi Thi Nguyen and Osa Atoe. The tour kicks off tonight at 538 Johnson and returns to Brooklyn on October 7th to close the tour at Death by Audio.
The tour will consist of "DIY" events (like the kickoff this evening) featuring bands, music, and readers, as well as school-sponsored panels, bringing POC zines into the university. For a preview, see a video of our Meet Me at the Race Riot event produced by Barnard.
We at For the Birds have been busy making copies of Mimi Nguyen's Race Riot zines to accompany the zinesters on their tour, and we'll be sending copies of our own zine So You Want to Start a Feminist Collective… and International Girl Gang Underground to join them!
POC Zine Project has been spotlighting all of the members of the tour on their tumblr. Here are some of our favorite quotes:
I think that being able to tour & travel has helped me deal with how white punk can be because I've been able to make connections with black & brown punks all over the country and even internationally.
Even though zines are largely seen as either a literary art form or as a "music thing," imagine the transformative nature that zines could have in all aspects of our lives? The power of narratives being read straight from the pens of those living them with out fear of persecution within and outside of their own community, or, inversely, the recognition of a POC voice within their community and power lying in the ease in which a zine can be created—we don't need anyone's publishing money, we don't need anyone's approval.
I wanted to go on this tour… to connect with other punks of color about this thing we love and sometimes hate, to present something –a zine, a tour— that might make sense of that push and pull and give it a history, and then to create something new between us.
Emphasizing the voices of POC in Zine culture (and any media) is imperative to revolutionizing any "alternative" space. If diversity isn't present we aren't moving forward.
I decided to join the [POC Zine Project] tour because I thought it was an awesome opportunity to hang out with women of colour who I could hopefully talk to about things that I think about alot, but don't necessarily get to talk about that much in the communities and cities that I live in! I'm working on the third issue of my punk zine Fix My Head, which is a collection of interviews with "Punx of Colour," mostly women who have been playing in hardcore/punk bands for some time, and their experiences of racism/fetishisation/exclusion/etc.
For all of the Race Riot tour dates and details, check this link and be sure to follow along with the POC Zine Project tumblr.

OK, all. How many of you have used or are using those white, plastic pail invertible hive feeders. They are sold by various bee supply companies in 1, 2 or 3 gallon sizes. I am particuly interested in those of you who are using them now during the cold months. HAS ANYONE FOUND THAT THEY DO NOT LEAK!! I would be extremely intersted to find a type that does NOT. They seem to work OK (not leak) during the warm months but when the daily temperatures start to cycle below freezing, they seem to inevitably do so. I would like to solve this problem in that I like the concept of invertible feeders over the hive-top feeders for 2 reasons:
1) The syrup source is closer to the bees (they have to travel less distance away from cluster warmth to retrieve it).
2) No drowning
Anyone who has ideas as to why the leaking occurs and practical ideas to solve this problem is more than welcome to share them here. I have my own ideas but want to see what you all may have to say first.

Ballard Traffic Watch
Part of West Commodore to close for siphon project work
Beginning Monday, Nov. 11, a small section of West Commodore will be closed for approximately three weeks due to work on the Ballard SIphon Replacement Project. This work is weather dependent. Traffic will be detoured around the road closure via 23rd Avenue West, West Jameson Street and 24th Avenue West. The road closure is necessary to repave West Commodore Way in front of the project area.
What to Expect During the Road Closure:
- Traffic control signs and staff to ease congestion through the area
- Parking restrictions along the detour route (see map)
- High levels of activity involving crews, trucks, materials, grinding and paving equipment; noise and dust typical of a construction site
- Increased truck traffic along the detour route
- Typical work hours Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. until 6 p.m.; longer weekday hours and Saturday work possible
Landscaping work to close one lane of Holman Road Saturday, Nov. 2, and the following Saturday
Urban Forestry crews of the Seattle Department of Transportation will cut back ivy and prune trees on Holman Road from North 105th Street/Greenwood to Third Avenue Northwest tomorrow, Saturday, Nov. 2. They will close the southbound, outside lane from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
On Saturday, Nov. 9, Urban Forestry crews will support volunteers from the neighborhood, including residents and businesspersons, to continue removal and cutback of ivy. As the on the previous Saturday, the southbound, curb lane of Holman Road will be closed from approximately 11th Avenue Northwest to Northwest 87th Street.
Removal of invasive vines is important to the health of trees. Ivy will quickly grow up the trunk of a tree, smothering the tree's branches, and eventually killing the tree. Even when kept only around the base of the tree, ivy still robs the tree of nutrients and can cause rot in the trunk which can lead to tree falling over. Also, trees that have their canopies covered with ivy may not be able to withstand the additional wind or snow load caused by the extra leaf area of the vines.
Major street improvement project starting on N 105th St
Beginning on Thursday morning, July 25 and continuing until November, SDOT will be installing storm drains and reconstructing the roadway on N 105th St between Holman Rd NW and Aurora Ave N. For this work, the contractor working for SDOT will detour eastbound traffic on Holman Rd NW and N 105th Street at Greenwood Ave N.
Two signed detours will be established for eastbound traffic:
Option 1
- South on Greenwood Avenue North
- East on North 85th Street
- North on Aurora Avenue North
- East on North Northgate Way
Option 2
- North on Greenwood Avenue North
- East on North 130th Street
- South on Aurora Avenue North
- East on North Northgate Way
Large trucks eastbound on Holman Rd NW will be detoured at Greenwood Ave N, north to North 145th Street, then east on North 145th Street, or south on Greenwood Ave N and east on N 85th St.
At least one lane of westbound traffic on N 105th St will remain open at all times. Access to businesses will be maintained. While sidewalks are being constructed, pedestrians will have access on at least one side of N 105th St.
In addition, transit will be re-routed, and bus stops may be closed or re-located. For information on bus service, look for Rider Alert notices at bus stops, see Metro Online, www.kingcounty.gov/metro, or call (206) 553-3000.
At the completion of Phase I, the construction activity will move east to the Phase II section of N Northgate Way between Aurora Ave N and Corliss Ave N.
Improvements will include roadway repaving, new sidewalks and curb ramps, drainage improvements, street lighting and traffic signals, and Intelligent Transportation System components. When it is completed in the summer 2014, it will have significant benefits for the public and motorists, including:
- Improved safety for pedestrians
- Elimination of potholes
- Eased traffic congestion
- Improved water quality
- Improved transit speed and reliability
- Real-time information for travelers

text: I was wondering if anybody is interested in purchasing custom built performance parts that are better than other "store-bought" intakes and parts. I can build custom cold air intakes (single or dual filter setups), porting & polishing throttle bodies (service), and other services and parts like that. The cold air intakes consist of; intake tube(black, brushed, polished, or chrome), K&N or AEM racing filter, clamps, couplers (red, blue, or black), MAF adapter, and heat shield. *Pre-filter is available at an additional cost* All of these services and parts will be sold on eBay if there is a decent interest in these parts & services. My cold air intake will filter, perform, and sound better than other "store-bought" intakes and they are much cheaper! Post if you have any questions or if you are interested in these products. I take pride in my work and will stand by it!

Efforts to domesticate new, high-yield, perennial grain crops require patience and persistence—but such plants could transform agriculture
David Van Tassel, Lee DeHaan
Grains form the basis of the global food system, and they can relatively easily be processed into liquid fuels. Many new possibilities for crop development can be found in these plants. Perennial grains developed from tropical plants are the most obvious area for further research. We do not know how well the temperate-grassland–adapted species we are working on might perform in the humid or arid tropics, but even if they can be bred for adaptation to those climates, there is a wealth of indigenous vegetation likely to produce better candidates.
Saline environments are even more challenging. More than 4 million square kilometers of cropland are already salinized, and additional land is at risk, mostly as a result of years of irrigation. Although plant breeders are having some success in increasing the salt tolerance of standard crops, others have predicted that strong salt tolerance is genetically complex and that domestication of wild halophytes (salt-loving plants) might be more successful in the long term. At least one halophyte has traditionally been harvested for grain by the Native Americans of the Colorado River delta: Distichlis palmeri.
Woody crops have been traditionally placed in a separate category from grains, but some, like chestnuts and hazelnuts, have food value similar to plants more usually recognized as grains. Breeding for reduced height and threshability might make it possible to harvest these nuts nearly as easily as corn. Any plant with starch-, oil- or protein-rich reproductive structures that can be harvested, transported and processed like a grain is a candidate for investigation.
Most humans will be seed-eaters for the foreseeable future, it seems. Alternatives to seed-based food systems, such as algae or enzymatic conversion of cellulose, have been proposed, but they have received almost no funding. Fortunately, we live on a planet with more than 220,000 species of seed-bearing plants. These species occupy almost every global habitat across a wide span of plant forms and sizes. The crop base of the world's food system could be dramatically broadened in the next several decades—if other organizations can replicate the conditions Wes Jackson created at the Land Institute, in which projects are given, in his words, "the freedom to fail," along with sufficient time to prove their potential.

Video: Biden lied about voting against wars
posted at 10:41 am on October 12, 2012 by Ed Morrissey
Here's a good catch from the Washington Free Beacon on a point I missed during the debate itself. Joe Biden attacked Paul Ryan for his votes to support two wars as the reason for the massive deficits we now face. Biden also claimed to have voted against both. The only problem with that argument is that it's entirely false:
"By the way, they talk about this great recession like it fell out of the sky–like, 'Oh my goodness, where did it come from?'" Biden said. "It came from this man voting to put two wars on a credit card, at the same time, put a prescription drug plan on the credit card, a trillion dollar tax cut for the very wealthy."
"I was there, I voted against them," Biden continued. "I said, no, we can't afford that."
Then Sen. Biden voted for the Afghanistan resolution on Sept. 14, 2001 which authorized "the use of United States Armed Forces against those responsible for the recent attacks launched against the United States."
And on Oct. 11, 2002, Biden voted for a resolution authorizing unilateral military action in Iraq, according to the Washington Post.
Of course, in the heat of the debate, few viewers will recall how Biden voted in 2001 and 2003. Considering the Obama administration's constant prevarications on the Benghazi terror attack, though, this kind of lie might stick to Biden's flesh for a while. When it comes to war, you just can't trust Joe Biden to either know the truth or tell it to you.

Shoot one...
What are some options on a CCW .45 caliber???
1. I am used to the Glock system and am not hard-wired to flipping off a safety before engaging in a stressful situation.
2. I am middle-aged medium build but have difficulty in hiding a Glock23 on me (too wide of grip - for concealed)
3. Currently carry Ruger SP101 without difficulty.
BTW - shot my 1st .45 today (Glock 21) and enjoyed it. not much recoil (compared to the .40 or 9mm), more of a push. Nice BIG holes. Used Glock 22 as LEO but hip holster and open carry
Thanks for the input.
Kimber Ultra carry 2 if you can get used to flipping a safety, else id stick with glock
Kahr CW45. Really thin, full handed grip, good trigger, and mine has been flawless. I carry mine everyday with Golden Sabers.
You probably should stop by your local gunshop and take the Colt New Agent in hand; it'll speak for itself about .45acp concealed carry.
if you want a 1911 style then there are a lot of 3" models to choose
i'd rather have a glock model 36
the best and a lot cheaper
You are correct, Glocks are cheap.

A Glock 36 should fit your needs. It has a single stack magazine so it is thinner than other Glocks.
I have a Glock 36, and am liking it thus far. I had one little hiccup during my last outing, but it isn't even broken in yet (could have been an ammo issue). You can see my "showdown" in the following thread with my XD9SC and G36 (far from over, but it's a start ):
And the Showdown Begins....
The "showdown" in that thread, stems from my thread here:
Blazer Brass
3" 1911 platform always seems to conceal the best for me. Th Glock 36, I have to agree with the previous posters on this. I have also the Ruger 345 but I have not tried this out for carry yet. Sigs are a little too wide for my tastes.

BONAPARTE BLENKINS sat on the side of the bed. He had wonderfully revived since the day before, held his head high, talked in a full sonorous voice, and ate greedily of all the viands offered him. At his side was a basin of soup, from which he took a deep draught now and again as he watched the fingers of the German, who sat on the mud floor mending the bottom of a chair.
Presently he looked out, where, in the afternoon sunshine, a few half-grown ostriches might be seen wandering listlessly about, and then he looked in again at the little white-washed room, and at Lyndall, who sat looking at a book near page: 59 the door. Then he raised his chin and tried to adjust an imaginary shirt-collar. Finding none, he smoothed the little grey fringe at the back of his head, and began,—
"You are a student of history, I perceive, my friend, from the study of these volumes that lie scattered about this apartment; this fact has been made evident to me."
"Well—a little—perhaps—it may be," said the German meekly.
"Being a student of history then," said Bonaparte, raising himself loftily, "you will doubtless have heard of my great, of my celebrated kinsman, Napoleon Bonaparte?"
"Yes, yes," said the German, looking up.
"I, sir," said Bonaparte, "was born at this hour, on an April afternoon, three-and-fifty years ago. The nurse, sir—she was the same who attended when the Duke of Sutherland was born,—brought me to my mother. 'There is only one name for this child,' she said: 'he has page: 60 the nose of his great kinsman;' and so Bonaparte Blenkins became my name—Bonaparte Blenkins. Yes, sir," said Bonaparte, "there is a stream on my maternal side that connects me with a stream on his maternal side."
The German made a sound of astonishment.
"The connection," said Bonaparte, "is one which could not be easily comprehended by one unaccustomed to the study of aristocratic pedigrees; but the connection is close."
"Is it possible!" said the German, pausing in his work with much interest and astonishment. "Napoleon an Irishman!"
"Yes," said Bonaparte, "on the mother's side, and that is how we are related. There wasn't a man to beat him," said Bonaparte, stretching himself—"not a man except the Duke of Wellington. And it's a strange coincidence," added Bonaparte, bending forward, "but he was a connection of mine. His nephew, the Duke of Wellington's nephew, married a cousin of page: 61 mine. She was a woman! See her at one of the court balls—amber-satin—daisies in her hair. Worth going a hundred miles to look at her! Often seen her there myself, sir!"
The German moved the leather thongs in and out, and thought of the strange vicissitudes of human life, which might bring the kinsman of dukes and emperors to his humble room.
Bonaparte appeared lost among old memories.
"Ah, that Duke of Wellington's nephew!" he broke forth suddenly; "many's the joke I've had with him. Often came to visit me at Bonaparte Hall. Grand place I had then—park, conservatory, servants. He had only one fault, that Duke of Wellington's nephew," said Bonaparte, observing that the German was deeply interested in every word: "he was a coward—what you might call a coward. You've never been in Russia, I suppose?" said Bonaparte, fixing his crosswise-looking eyes on the German's face.page: 62
"No, no," said the old man humbly. "France, England, Germany, a little in this country; it is all I have travelled."
"I, my friend," said Bonaparte, "I have been in every country in the world, and speak every civilized language, excepting only Dutch and German. I wrote a book of my travels—noteworthy incidents. Publisher got it—cheated me out of it. Great rascals those publishers! Upon one occasion the Duke of Wellington's nephew and I were travelling in Russia. All of a sudden one of the horses dropped down dead as a doornail. There we were—cold night—snow four feet thick—great forest—one horse not being able to move the sledge—night coming on—wolves.
"'Spree!' says the Duke of Wellington's nephew.
"'Spree, do you call it?' says I. 'Look out.'
"There, sticking out under a bush, was nothing less than the nose of a bear. The Duke page: 63 of Wellington's nephew was up a tree like a shot; I stood quietly on the ground, as cool as I am at this moment, loaded my gun, and climbed up the tree. There was only one bough.
"'Bon,' said the Duke of Wellington's nephew, 'you'd better sit in front.'
"'All right,' said I; 'but keep your gun ready. There are more coming.' He'd got his face buried in my back.
"'How many are there?' said he.
"'Four,' said I.
"'How many are there now?' said he.
"'Eight,' said I.
"'How many are there now?' said he.
"'Ten,' said I.
"'Ten! ten!' said he; and down goes his gun.
"'Wallie,' I said, 'what have you done? We're dead men now!'
"'Bon, my old fellow,' said he, 'I couldn't help it; my hands trembled so!'page: 64
"'Wall,' I said, turning round and seizing his hand, 'Wallie, my dear lad, good-bye. I'm not afraid to die. My legs are long—they hang down—the first bear that comes and I don't hit him, off goes my foot. When he takes it I shall give you my gun and go. You may yet be saved; but tell, oh, tell Mary-Ann that I thought of her, that I prayed for her.'
"'Good-bye, old fellow!' said he.
"'God bless you!' said I.
"By this time the bears were sitting in a circle all around the tree. Yes," said Bonaparte impressively, fixing his eyes on the German, "a regular, exact, circle. The marks of their tails were left in the snow, and I measured it afterward; a drawing-master couldn't have done it better. It was that saved me. If they'd rushed on me at once, poor old Bon would never have been here to tell this story. But they came on, sir, systematically, one by one. All the rest sat on their tails and waited. The first fellow came page: 65 up, and I shot him; the second fellow—I shot him; the third—I shot him. At last the tenth came; he was the biggest of all—the leader, you may say.
"'Wal,' I said, 'give me your hand. My fingers are stiff with the cold; there is only one bullet left. I shall miss him. While he is eating me you get down and take your gun; and live, dear friend, live to remember the man who gave his life for you!' By that time the bear was at me. I felt his paw on my trousers.
"'Oh, Bonnie! Bonnie!' said the Duke of Wellington's nephew. But I just took my gun and put the muzzle to the bear's ear—over he fell—dead!"
Bonaparte Blenkins waited to observe what effect his story had made. Then he took out a dirty white handkerchief and stroked his forehead, and more especially his eyes.
"It always affects me to relate that adventure," he remarked, returning the handkerchief to his page: 66 pocket. "Ingratitude—base, vile ingratitude—is recalled by it! That man, that man, who but for me would have perished in the pathless wilds of Russia, that man in the hour of my adversity forsook me. Yes," said Bonaparte, "I had money, I had lands; I said to my wife, 'There is Africa, a struggling country; they want capital; they want men of talent; they want men of ability to open up that land. Let us go.'
"I bought eight thousand pounds' worth of machinery—winnowing, plowing, reaping-machines; I loaded a ship with them. Next steamer I came out—wife, children, all. Got to the Cape. Where is the ship with the things? Lost—gone to the bottom! And the box with the money? Lost—nothing saved!
"My wife wrote to the Duke of Wellington's nephew; I didn't wish her to; she did it without my knowledge.page: 67
"What did the man whose life I saved do? Did he send me thirty thousand pounds? say, 'Bonaparte, my brother, here is a crumb?' No; he sent me nothing.
"My wife said, 'Write.' I said, 'Mary Ann, NO. While these hands have power to work, NO. While this frame has power to endure, NO. Never shall it be said that Bonaparte Blenkins asked of any man.'"
The man's noble independence touched the German.
"Your case is hard; yes, that is hard," said the German, shaking his head.
Bonaparte took another draught of the soup, leaned back against the pillows, and sighed deeply.
"I think," he said after a while, rousing himself, "I shall now wander in the benign air, and taste the gentle cool of evening. The stiffness hovers over me yet; exercise is beneficial."
So saying, he adjusted his hat carefully on page: 68 the bald crown of his head, and moved to the door. After he had gone the German sighed again over his work—
"Ah, Lord! So it is! Ah!"
He thought of the ingratitude of the world.
"Uncle Otto," said the child in the doorway, "did you ever hear of ten bears sitting on their tails in a circle?"
"Well, not of ten exactly: but bears do attack travellers every day. It is nothing unheard-of," said the German. "A man of such courage too! Terrible experience that!"
"And how do we know that the story is true, Uncle Otto?"
The German's ire was roused.
"That is what I do hate!" he cried. "Know that is true! How do you know that anything is true? Because you are told so. If we begin to question everything, wanting proof, proof, proof, what will we have to believe left? How do you know the angel opened the prison- page: 69 door for Peter, except that Peter said so? How do you know that God talked to Moses, except that Moses wrote it? That is what I hate!"
The girl knit her brows. Perhaps her thoughts made a longer journey than the German dreamed of; for, mark you, the old dream little how their words and lives are texts and studies to the generation that shall succeed them. Not what we are taught, but what we see, makes us, and the child gathers the food on which the adult feeds to the end.
When the German looked up next there was a look of supreme satisfaction in the little mouth and the beautiful eyes.
"What dost see, chicken?" he asked.
The child said nothing, and an agonizing shriek was borne on the afternoon breeze.
"Oh, God! my God! I am killed!" cried the voice of Bonaparte, as he, with wide open mouth and shaking flesh, fell into the room, followed by page: 70 a half-grown ostrich, who put its head in at the door, opened its beak at him, and went away.
"Shut the door! shut the door! As you value my life, shut the door!" cried Bonaparte, sinking into a chair, his face blue and white, with a greenishness about the mouth. "Ah, my friend," he said tremulously, "eternity has looked me in the face! My life's thread hung upon a cord! The valley of the shadow of death!" said Bonaparte, seizing the German's arm.
"Dear, dear, dear!" said the German, who had closed the lower half of the door, and stood much concerned beside the stranger, "you have had a fright. I never knew so young a bird to chase before; but they will take dislikes to certain people. I sent a boy away once because a bird would chase him. Ah, dear, dear!"
"When I looked round," said Bonaparte, "the red and yawning throat was above me, and the reprehensible paw raised to strike me. page: 71 My nerves," said Bonaparte, suddenly growing faint, "always delicate—highly strung—are broken—broken! You could not give a little wine, a little brandy my friend?"
The old German hurried away to the bookshelf, and took from behind the books a small bottle, half of whose contents he poured into a cup. Bonaparte drained it eagerly.
"How do you feel now?" asked the German, looking at him with much sympathy.
"A little, slightly, better."
The German went out to pick up the battered chimney-pot which had fallen before the door.
"I am sorry you got the fright. The birds are bad things till you know them," he said kindly, as he put the hat down.
"My friend," said Bonaparte, holding out his hand, "I forgive you; do not be disturbed. Whatever the consequences, I forgive you. I know, I believe, it was with no ill-intent that page: 72 you allowed me to go out. Give me your hand. I have no ill-feeling."
"You are very kind," said the German, taking the extended hand, and feeling suddenly convinced that he was receiving magnanimous forgiveness for some great injury, "you are very kind."
"Don't mention it," said Bonaparte.
He knocked out the crown of his caved-in old hat, placed it on the table before him, leaned his elbows on the table and his face in his hands, and contemplated it.
"Ah, my old friend," he thus apostrophized the hat, "you have served me long, you have served me faithfully, but the last day has come. Never more shall you be borne upon the head of your master. Never more shall you protect his brow from the burning rays of summer or the cutting winds of winter. Henceforth bare-headed must your master go. Good-bye, good-bye, old hat!"page: 73
At the end of this affecting appeal the German rose. He went to the box at the foot of his bed; out of it he took a black hat, which had evidently been seldom worn and carefully preserved.
"It's not exactly what you may have been accustomed to," he said nervously, putting it down beside the battered chimney-pot, "but it might be of some use—a protection to the head, you know."
"My friend," said Bonaparte, "you are not following my advice; you are allowing yourself to be reproached on my account. Do not make yourself unhappy. No; I shall go bare-headed."
"No, no, no!" cried the German energetically. "I have no use for the hat, none at all. It is shut up in the box."
"Then I will take it, my friend. It is a comfort to one's own mind when you have unintentionally injured any one to make reparation. I know the feeling. The hat may not page: 74 be of that refined cut of which the old one was, but it will serve, yes, it will serve. Thank you," said Bonaparte, adjusting it on his head, and then replacing it on the table. "I shall lie down now and take a little repose," he added; "I much fear my appetite for supper will be lost."
"I hope not, I hope not," said the German, reseating himself at his work, and looking much concerned as Bonaparte stretched himself on the bed and turned the end of the patchwork quilt over his feet.
"You must not think to make your departure not for many days," said the German presently. "Tant' Sannie gives her consent, and—"
"My friend," said Bonaparte, closing his eyes sadly, "you are kind; but were it not that to-morrow is the Sabbath, weak and trembling as I lie here, I would proceed on my way. I must seek work; idleness but for a day is page: 75 painful. Work, labour—that is the secret of all true happiness!"
He doubled the pillow under his head, and watched how the German drew the leather thongs in and out.
After a while Lyndall silently put her book on the shelf and went home, and the German stood up and began to mix some water and meal for roaster-cakes. As he stirred them with his hands he said,—
"I make always a double supply on Saturday night; the hands are then free as the thoughts for Sunday."
"The blessed Sabbath," said Bonaparte.
There was a pause. Bonaparte twisted his eyes without moving his head, to see if supper were already on the fire.
"You must sorely miss the administration of the Lord's word in this desolate spot," added Bonaparte. "Oh, how love I Thine house, and the place where Thine honour dwelleth!"page: 76
"Well, we do; yes," said the German; "but we do our best. We meet together, and I—well, I say a few words, and perhaps they are not wholly lost, not quite."
"Strange coincidence," said Bonaparte; "my plan always was the same. Was in the Free State once—solitary farm—one neighbour. Every Sunday I called together friend and neighbour, child and servant, and said, 'Rejoice with me, that we may serve the Lord,' and then I addressed them. Ah, those were blessed times," said Bonaparte; "would they might return."
The German stirred at the cakes, and stirred, and stirred, and stirred. He could give the stranger his bed, and he could give the stranger his hat, and he could give the stranger his brandy; but his Sunday service!
After a good while he said,
"I might speak to Tant' Sannie; I might page: 77 arrange; you might take the service in my place, if it—"
"My friend," said Bonaparte, "it would give me the profoundest felicity, the most unbounded satisfaction; but in these worn-out habiliments, in these deteriorated garments, it would not be possible, it would not be fitting that I should officiate in service of One whom, for respect, we shall not name. No, my friend, I will remain here; and, while you are assembling yourselves together in the presence of the Lord, I, in my solitude, will think of and pray for you. No; I will remain here!"
It was a touching picture—the solitary man there praying for them. The German cleared his hands from the meal, and went to the chest from which he had taken the black hat. After a little careful feeling about, he produced a black cloth coat, trowsers, and waistcoat, which he laid on the table, smiling knowingly. They page: 78 were of new shining cloth, worn twice a year, when he went to the town to "nachtmaal." He looked with great pride at the coat as he unfolded it and held it up.
"It's not the latest fashion, perhaps, not a West End cut, not exactly; but it might do; it might serve at a push. Try it on, try it on!" he said, his old grey eyes twinkling with pride.
Bonaparte stood up and tried on the coat. It fitted admirably; the waistcoat could be made to button by ripping up the back, and the trowsers were perfect; but below were the ragged boots. The German was not disconcerted. Going to the beam where a pair of top-boots hung, he took them off, dusted them carefully, and put them down before Bonaparte. The old eyes now fairly brimmed over with sparkling enjoyment.
"I have only worn them once. They might serve; they might be endured."page: 79
Bonaparte drew them on and stood upright, his head almost touching the beams. The German looked at him with profound admiration. It was wonderful what a difference feathers made in the bird.

- About Plattsburgh
The legal studies program at SUNY Plattsburgh is an interdisciplinary minor designed to complement any undergraduate field of study. Our program's focus is twofold. First, it benefits students considering a career in a variety of legal positions. Second, from a civics perspective, it is indispensable to those who wish to better understand how their community functions every day.
Our program serves pre-law students as well as others with intellectual or practical interest in law and is based on the idea that every student on campus will gain practical benefits from the study of the law and legal institutions which suffuse our society:
The required prerequisite for the legal studies minor is Introduction to Legal Studies (INT 190). Topics covered include duties and responsibilities of attorneys and paralegals, civil and criminal litigation, the court system and alternative dispute resolution, and legal writing and critical thinking.
