Your Rating Product ValueBull Regular 12in All Natural Bully Sticks 10ct The bully sticks in the stores in the Alpine town in Idaho I live in cost $5.60 a stick... unfortunate that our hound dog eats them in 10 minutes!!!! The 12inch set of 10 bully sticks from this website came fast, efficiently packaged, and very reasonably priced. They are a bit thin though! (Posted on 11/12/13)

- pretty good! Review by jean
Your Rating Product ValueBull 100 ct Regular 12in All Natural Bully Sticks I have no basis for comparison as I have never bought Bully Sticks before from anyone else, but I cut them in half for my jack russells and they enjoy them. 12" was too long to manage. They aren't crazy about them and eating them quickly as some other reviews indicated, but they like them. Pretty expensive when a rawhide seems comparable, but good for a change. (Posted on 6/21/13)
- Great for small dogs Review by Barry
Your Rating Product ValueBull 100ct Thin 12 inch All Natural Bully Sticks Thinner than a pencil, lightly smoked, "stinky", just the way our girls (Havanese) like them. They were a big hit. The only reason I did not give them 5 stars is that they are more expensive than the regular size. Although being honest they come 12 inch lengths and the regular come 6 inch.
Customer service was great when we specified we did not want a product from India. Would buy again and recommend without hesitation. (Posted on 5/16/13) - Great Product Review by Texas Gal

Your Rating Product ValueBull 100 ct Regular 12in All Natural Bully Sticks Unfortunately, my spoiled rotten Border Collie has expensive tastes. He loves bully sticks and is very happy with my order.

Your Rating Product ValueBull 25 ct Regular 12in All Natural Bully Sticks Nice resealable packaging, VERY low odor, consistent sizing and very quick shipping. I agree with those who said the regular size turns out to be too thin for my Border Collie who LOVES bully sticks, but since all diameters are listed AND there is a scale figure in the photo, this is really just my own fault. Will definitely order this brand again, probably in the jumbo diameter. Thank you! (Posted on 2/3/13)

Your Rating Product ValueBull Regular 12in All Natural Bully Sticks 10ct I just ordered 5 times what I ordered the first time of your brand of bully stix. regular 12 inch bully stix.
You are the only bully stix sellers that truly send all bully stix the same size and width I ordered. In the past I ordered 12 inch ones from Cadet and got almost every size but 12 inch. They are very poor in QC. thank you for your consistency in size and lenght in your bully stix. As long as you keep this up I will order from you. (Posted on 12/21/12) - Perfect for my dog Review by Reagan
Your Rating My dog loves these even better than the thicker ones available at the store. The people who think they are too thin may want to try the thicker ones. I think the thicker ones are too hard for my dog and he gets disinterested after awhile. These seem to be perfect. He will chew through one in a couple of hours. I always get the 12 in ones.

Your Rating My dog loves these bully sticks. I bought them through Value Pet b/c of the low price. Unfortunately, they last maybe 20 minutes.

Your Rating My dogs love these sticks. They are the perfect size for small dogs. The only thing that I would say is next time I will buy the low or no odor sticks. I got the low and no odor before and I will buy them next time. I had no clue how stinky they are. My dogs love them either way. I actually think they like the stinky better. :) I will buy bully sticks from here again. They are a great price. Thanks (Posted on 3/10/11)
- Good value Review by MC
Your Rating This is great value for the price. These are 12 inch bullies, but they are definitely small. They are about as big around as a pencil. My dog is a heavy chewer, so each one only lasts about 30 minutes. For a regular dog they'll probably last longer, and you can't beat the price. (Posted on 3/10/11)

ANNALS OF CRIME about Megan Meier, a teen-age girl who committed suicide after an exchange of hostile messages on MySpace. Writer describes newsvans parked on Waterford Crystal Drive, in Dardenne Prairie, Missouri in November to cover a tragedy that came to be known as the MySpace Suicide Hoax. A year earlier, thirteen-year-old Megan Meier had committed suicide after an exchange of hostile messages with a boy named Josh Evans who had befriended her on MySpace. Megan's suicide was precipitated by a hoax: "Josh Evans" was a fake, a cyber-character created by neighbors who lived down the street from the Meiers. Writer describes the fluid nature of users' identities on sites like MySpace and Friendster. By the time Megan's parents came home from the hospital, Josh Evans had vanished from MySpace. It wasn't until a month after her death that a neighbor named Michele Mulford told the Meiers that Curt and Lori Drew, who lived four houses down, had created "Josh" in concert with their thirteen-year-old daughter, a longtime friend of Megan's. The two thirteen-year-olds had recently quarreled. For nearly a year, on the advice of the police, the Meiers had kept quiet about the Drews' involvement. After investigators determined that the Drews' actions had not broken any laws, the Meiers spoke with a local journalist, Steve Pokin, who revealed the ruse in his column. Pokin's story threw Dardenne Prairie into paroxysms of recrimination. Writer discusses Megan's childhood in Dardenne Prairie and her fickle friendship with the Drews' daughter, which eventually fizzled. The Dews had never been popular on the block. They seem to have been regarded as local inconveniences. For eighth grade, the Meiers transferred Megan from the local public school to Immaculate Conception Dardenne. Megan soon began asking her parents for permission to open a MySpace account to chat with her new friends. They agreed, with a number of restrictions, including that one of them be in the room at all times when she was on the site. Describes Megan's online friendship with "Josh Evans," an online Frankenstein's monster, geared to the needs of an excitable, insecure teen-age girl. Tells about several suspicious exchanges with "Josh" that might have indicated to the Meiers that he was a hoax. Writer describes the series of hostile messages that resulted in Megan's suicide and the decision by the local police not to bring charges against the Drews.

After touring the Queens campus of St. John's University, they visited St. Thomas More Church to reflect on their visit. "The church was open, so we went in and sat there for a little while," said Janet Hetzel. "We all had a warm and peaceful feeling about the University. On the drive back to Long Island, Dana decided that St. John's was her first choice." The Hetzels were thrilled with their daughter's decision, to say the least. "St. John's has a pristine reputation in the academic world and we wanted our daughter to have the best," said Kevin Hetzel. He added, "Dana's grandfather and aunt were active members of the St. Vincent DePaul Society, so it's no coincidence that Dana ended up at a Vincentian university." Now, as Dana enters her sophomore year in The School of Education, her parent's enthusiasm is as strong as ever. "Dana is getting a tremendous education here and we believe there will be many doors open to her," Mrs. Hetzel added. Dana is enrolled in The School of Education's Five - Year Combined Degree Program, which will allow her to complete both undergraduate and graduate degrees in just five years —– at considerable savings in cost and time. When she's not in the classroom, Dana is extremely involved in the St. John's community and has been named a Dean's Scholar, the highest academic honor in The School of Education. As a Dean's Scholar, Dana represents The School of Education at major events. Dean's Scholars must have a minimum of a 3.75 GPA. She is also a member of Kappa Delta Pi, the education honor society, the Phi Eta Sigma national honor society, the Music Ministry and other service organizations. Eager to enrich her life and broaden her horizons, Dana will experience European culture, art, and politics by spending the spring 2012 semester studying in Italy, France and Spain through the University's Discover the World: Education program. Naturally, the Hetzels are proud of their daughter's many achievements at St. John's. Moreover, they are they are impressed with her maturation during her short time at the University. "She has grown intellectually, socially and spiritually since attending St. John's."

shelbyville, indiana - 6/30/2012 hi there. i am new to this site. i appreciate reading and learning about new places. presently i live in shelbyville,indiana. it is a nice place. there is low crime here and it is a clean area to iive in. i will say that our weather is very weird. today it was like 106 degrees. it is a dirty heat. i have lived out west, in the military and and overseas, it is just a different type of close heat. these last few years we have been getting winter ice storms. this past winter i slid out of my drive to go to work, and then i slid in my drive when i got home. that was really scary.i really hate the cold. thank you for this site. i appreciate you. have a nice day. warm regards, claudia[read more...]
Quiet & Conservative - 2/27/2012 That sums up Indiana - for the most part. With a church on every other corner, no liquor sales permitted on Sunday EXCEPT at restaurants, the atmosphere is fairly mundane. It has it's crime, Indianapolis has even been on one of the regular cop shows. So it's definitely not innocent. But it's far from Las Vegas. There are no mountains, no oceans or beaches - unless you want to count the dunes on lake Michigan or Indiana beach on lake Shafer. If you are looking for low cost of living and a fairly quiet life, Indiana is a good state for that.[read more...]
Great If You Are A Republican - 12/5/2011 Indiana made history in 2008 when it voted democrate for the first time in a presidential election in like 46 or 64 years...all though the state goes through periods where leaders work in a bipartisan manner like the senator team of center leaning Republican Richard Lugar and Blue Dog Democrate Evan Bayh. But like all good things that team came to an end and Mr. Lugar is left standing alone on Capital Hill defending the middle ground for those of us who still believe it exists. Rhe state wasted untold amounts of my tax dollars to amend the state's constitution to criminalize same sex unions. That was the deal breaker for me. Seperation of church and state does not exist here. Leave your union membership at the door. Expect everyone around you here to assume you did NOT vote for Obama. And don't expect the local high school to teach your children evolution side by side w/creationism like federal law mandates. They just see that as some no good outsiders oppinion...unless of course that outsider is Jesus Christ or one of his followers. Think Chicago's got gangster political problems? Who do you think it's little sibling Indianapolis learned from? There's still a lot of those old partnerships thriving here today. I thought that maybe when my generation got old enough we would help pull politics into the middle around here, but not enough of the old, white, rich, protestant, men have vacated their positions yet. Too socially conservative and Christian based politics here for me to wanna spend another 35 years here. Getting out ASAP[read more...]

Indianapolis Indiana my point of view - 4/9/2011 Indianapolis has a few goods and a way more bad... Yes its cheap ,but the lifestyle is horrible.. people here are racists , fake , polite(fake polite) ,there's a lot of trash and rednecks !.big % of men have no jobs, no teeth ,no fashion common sense , no education ,and very stack up.....Most of Hoosiers never been out of Indiana there whole life's.!?!!i was shocked about it!! and i am sure and i know there's some very nice people,who don't belong to this category , but i live here almost 7 years ,and i lived north side, south side, west side, east side ..basically all the sides of Indianapolis and is pretty much the same.except north side when you have rich ignorant uneducated people..NOT ALL...but the majority! and veeeeery racist.!!!!!! very very!!!they dont like Diversity here, and if you from Europe they can NOT tell the differences between latino race and European..!!! also they are racist to each other..blacks with latino - white with black and so on.....I do not like it here ,but because of very wrong choices that i made i have to be here for little more while...after that i will DEFINITELY MOVE OUT OF INDIANA..

Church Planting - 3/24/2008 I find that there are great opportunities for planting new churches, culturally progressive but fundamentally and doctrinally conservative in Indiana. I see the state moving toward making strides in promoting jobs and new industry to our state. That coupled with the growing cities in the state is impacting the smaller outlying communities. The influx of people moving into those areas of job growth potentially proves to be fertile soil to plant new and vibrant local churches to serve those growing communities with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.[read more...]

Fritz Lang's first American film, "Fury," concerns the story of a man whom, falsely accused of a kidnapping and murder, is held in a county jail against his will and is subject to mob justice at the hands of the local community. Such people burn the jail he is in and believe he dies, but he in fact survives and shows up later on during the trail of some of the lynchers, condemning the masses for their behavior while reflecting on his own mistakes.
Many scenes, in particular the moment when the mob descends upon the jail, are still very captivating, but they seem to be in opposition to earlier moments in the film, where the happy relationship between Joe and Katherine is shown (aping a more lighthearted comedy in the process). The dramatic shift from carefree entertainment to social commentary, then poses an interesting question - is this shift consistent with the tone of the film? It is my argument that it is not, and through careful examination of the film as well as study of its various meanings and messages, it will hopefully be revealed that the shift detracts from the film's underlying social messages. However powerful such scenes may be, they cannot be fully appreciated without our understanding of the main characters. The change from lighthearted romp to stinging critique is too abrupt to justify, and the social commentary suffers to some extent because of this.

Haliburton, Thomas Chandler
Thomas Chandler Haliburton 1796-1865
Canadian sketch writer, nonfiction writer, historian, and author of fictional letters.
The following entry presents selected criticism on Haliburton's works from 1981 to 1997. For discussion of Haliburton's works prior to 1981, see NCLC, Volume 15.
Haliburton was a pioneer in the development of Canadian and American humor literature. He is best known for his creation of the character Sam Slick, a glib, irreverent braggart and shrewd peddler from New England who personified Haliburton's political views on the relationship between England, Nova Scotia, and America. Common themes in Haliburton's various volumes, sketches, and essays include his fervent patriotism for Nova Scotia and his conservative Tory political views. Today, critics chiefly praise Haliburton for his creative rendering of dialects and for his satirical descriptions of various social classes.
Biographical Information
Born in Windsor, Nova Scotia in 1796, Haliburton studied at the Anglican-controlled King's Grammar School and later at nearby King's College. During a trip to England in 1816, he met Louisa Neville who returned with him to become his wife. He resumed the law studies he had begun under the tutelage of his father, a provincial judge, and in 1826, after practicing law for several years, Haliburton became a Tory member of the provincial parliament. Upon his father's death in 1829, he inherited an appointment as judge of the Inferior Courts of Common Pleas. In 1841, the same year that his wife died, Haliburton was named to the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia. He retired from this position in 1856 and shortly afterwards moved to England, where he married his second wife, Sarah Williams. He continued his political career as a member of the House of Commons for Launceston. Haliburton died at his home in Islesworth in 1865 at the age of sixty-nine.
Major Works
Throughout his literary career, Haliburton produced historical and political writings, edited anthologies, and composed miscellaneous fictional sketches and letters. The most popular of his works were several series of sketches featuring the Yankee character Sam Slick. Scholars generally agree that Haliburton began his literary career with A General Description of Nova Scotia, published anonymously in 1823, followed by a re-working of the same material in An Historical and Statistical Account of Nova Scotia (1829). These volumes presented the province's history, its natural resources, and its economic potential for prospective settlers. In his political treatises, The Bubbles of Canada (1839), A Reply to the Report of the Earl of Durham (1839), and Rule and Misrule of the English in America (1851), Haliburton expressed his conservative views concerning Canada's prospective form of government, insisting that a constitutional democracy based on the American system would not be in the best interests of either Canada or Great Britain. Haliburton also wrote The Letter-Bag of the Great Western (1840), The Old Judge (1849), and The Season-Ticket (1860), in which he offered satirical commentary on social and political matters. In the first two series of The Clockmaker (1836 and 1838), the Yankee Sam Slick travels to Nova Scotia. There he meets a Squire, who travels with him, recording Slick's adventures on the road and his comments on such issues as women's rights and the political and social concerns of the Canadian provinces. The third series of The Clockmaker (1840) is set in England, where Sam's negative comments about the country are countered by the Squire and by another American, the Reverend Hopewell. In the two series of The Attaché (1843 and 1844), Sam serves at the American Legation in England. In Sam Slick's Wise Saws and Modern Instances (1853) Sam returns to Nova Scotia to examine the state of the province's fishing industry for the president of the United States. In Nature and Human Nature (1855), the last work in which Haliburton described the Yankee's experiences, Sam continues his investigations for the president and expounds on the condition of humankind, the state of female education, and the superiority of Americans over the English. Throughout these stories, Haliburton expressed his distrust of American democracy and advocated the loyalist view that the Canadian provinces needed strong ties with the British government.
Critical Reception
Of all Haliburton's writings, none attained the popularity or critical attention enjoyed by the Sam Slick stories. In these sketches, collected in the three series of The Clockmaker, the two series of The Attaché, Sam Slick's Wise Saws and Modern Instances, and Nature and Human Nature, Haliburton combines his political views with humorous storytelling. The character of Sam, called the author's "mouthpiece" by critics, provided Haliburton with a colorful means of prodding his fellow Nova Scotians into improving their work habits in order to compete with what the author believed to be the more vigorous and efficient Americans. The enduring interest of the Sam Slick sketches is due, in part, to their humorous presentation of Haliburton's political philosophy. Delivered in Sam's characteristically caustic language, this humor often takes the form of blunt observations regarding the American and British systems of government, the progress of society and technology in Nova Scotia, and the British disdain of life in the Canadian colonies. Sam Slick considers himself a master of "soft sawder," his term for language meant to manipulate others. His skills as a merchant and orator allow him to convince customers that they not only desire, but also need what he has to sell. Though some critics have faulted Haliburton for the over-stylized stereotypical character that is Sam Slick, they have praised his renderings of the American frontier dialects presented in Sam's speech as consistent and largely accurate. Haliburton has been credited with popularizing many colorful and descriptive phrases and words, including "hot foot" for hurrying, "gumption" for courage, and "jawbreakers" for multisyllabic words. The first two series of The Clockmaker were well received by the public. However, subsequent writings were faulted as repetitive and lacking substantial literary merit. Haliburton's work, which has been derided as racist and misogynist, also receives attention from scholars who study the political messages and the dialectic and comic elements that he combined to create didactic narratives that influenced American satire.

[In the following essay, Kelly examines the ways in which Haliburton capitalized on the popularity of the travel book and used it as a medium for expressing his own political views regarding Canadian, American, and British relations.]
Thomas Haliburton's observations on British travel commentaries about America reward examination on several counts. First, they are valuable historically, recreating for the modern reader a phase of Anglo-American relations when these analyses of America renewed hostilities between two nations recently at war. Also, they point up Haliburton's interest in the format of travel writing itself and his adaptation of it in books as diverse as the Account of Nova Scotia, the Clockmaker and Attaché series, and other humorous works like The Letter-Bag of the Great Western, The Old Judge, and The Season Ticket. They reveal as well two general features of Haliburton's satire: the objective appraisal of all sides of a situation, and the didactic personal voice.
Studies of America written by travelling Britons never fail to excite the contempt of Haliburton's famous character, Sam Slick. In the first volume of The Clockmaker (1836), he bluntly states that the writers of these travelogues...

[In the following essay, an earlier version of which was published in Acadiensis: Journal of the History of the Atlantic Region in spring 1984, Brook shows how Haliburton used historical narrative and promotional description to bolster Nova Scotian patriotism by suggesting that the colony embodied the best and most vital qualities of British civilization.]
"This is my own my native land."(1)
Thomas Chandler Haliburton needs little introduction to students of Maritime history and literature. From the moment the first of his satirical Clockmaker series appeared in 1836, Haliburton and his fictional hero "Sam Slick" became international celebrities. And if Haliburton's reputation has subsequently faded abroad, and suffered periods of quiescence at home, he has never wanted for readers, and is even now the object of renewed scholarly interest.2 This paper will not, however, undertake another investigation of Haliburton in his role as "the father of American humour"; rather it will be the purpose here to study Haliburton ante Slick—the young man whose writings were primarily promotional and historical. My intention will be to explain why he wrote, how he wrote,...

SOURCE: Middlebro', Tom. "Imitatio Inanitatis: Literary Madness and the Canadian Short Story." Canadian Literature, no. 107 (winter 1985): 189-93.
[In the following excerpt, Middlebro' claims that Haliburton's "The Witch of Inky Dell" is a successful short story because its combination of gothic conventions, a morally ambiguous hero, and the theme of madness results in compassion for the characters and an "unsettling awareness of the unintelligible on the frontiers of reason."]
Plot in the short story may lead the reader's mind to an illumination of intelligibility, but sometimes it works to shatter the reader's comforting teleological expectations with evidence of irredeemable pointless waste. "I am not fond of expecting catastrophes," wrote the Reverend Sidney Smith, "but there are cracks in the world." The cracks in the design must be undetermined, gratuitous; the imaginatively corrigible does not disorientate, nor strip the reader's mind of all save bewildered compassion. The unwanted death of a character of felt value may arouse this response, but the effect can only be partial, not the what but only the when. Better is madness, for it attacks the existence-justifying mechanism, reason, itself.
One can draw a chart of decreasing intensity from complete madness (raging, sulking, or oscillating between the two) to temporary possession (as lengthy as Don Quixote's,...

[In the following essay, Royot discusses how Haliburton borrowed ideas from various frontier humorists to create Sam Slick and how Haliburton's writings influenced later American humorists.]
A retrospective view of the Clockmaker series makes it clear that Haliburton deliberately established a link between various brands of the American comic spirit. Resulting from his gleanings of folk humour, his achievements were ultimately conducive to a new genre combining oral tradition, popular culture, and literature, as later exemplified in Mark Twain's works. In this respect, the figure of Sam Slick amounts to a palimpsest which seems worth scrutinizing. Through Haliburton's persona New England and Southwestern lore is transmuted and given a fresh perspective. Such hybridization, misleading though it might appear in the past, is essentially based upon a reinterpretation of the picaresque tradition in the New World. Haliburton's vision of Sam Slick epitomizes the seminal contradictions of a committed observer torn between unrefrained self-expression and colonial allegiance. The Connecticut clockmaker's nativist assumptions cut across rural, urban, and sectional attitudes while displaying by turns jingoism,...

[In the following essay, Kelly suggests that Haliburton's writings, particularly The Clockmaker and The Attaché series, serve as political analyses of the relationship between England, America, and the Canadian colonies and are a social commentary on these cultures. She states that the character of Sam is the personification of Haliburton's satire of America and the means by which Haliburton makes fun of the English.]
After the first Clockmaker set in Nova Scotia won surprising acclaim overseas, Thomas Haliburton wrote to a former colleague living in New Brunswick, "I have another volume ready for the press, which is not so local as the other, and I think better suited for English readers."1 Consequently, the second and third Clockmaker and the four-volume Attaché feature the transatlantic "sayings and doings" of Haliburton's famous character, Sam Slick. In these works Haliburton emphasized the need for close ties between the mother country and her colony. But politics were only part of a larger study of the relations between the new and old world in his writing. Using the documentary approach of the travel books popular at the time, Haliburton also...

[In the following essay, MacDonald compares Marx's ideas on technology to Haliburton's philosophy that Nova Scotians should be more progressive in the development of technology, yet remain conservative in their traditional values.]
In a recent symposium, Robert L. McDougall has puzzled over T. C. Haliburton's being a reactionary tory and yet an advocate of technological progress: "How come … we find this [early nineteenth-century Nova Scotian writer] whose notion of utopia seems to be an agrarian economy, stable to the point of inertia and supported by an industrious yeomanry benevolently watched over by country squires—how come such a man takes such an interest in building railways and moving things around?"1 McDougall believes that Leo Marx's Machine in the Garden: Technology and the Pastoral Ideal in America may point the way to an answer: and so with Marx in mind, McDougall decides that Haliburton was "not more American but more North American than I had thought him to be," for he takes Haliburton's preoccupation with "technology and communications" to be "American" or "North American." Thus in Haliburton's opening sketch...

[In the following excerpt, McMullin maintains that even though Haliburton's popularity waned and he was alternately labeled a British or an American writer, his Tory philosophy was primarily linked to Canadian intellectual tradition.]
It seems to me that Robert L. McDougall has come closest to answering the question of why Thomas Chandler Haliburton's reputation has waned while lesser writers continue to be read by modern readers. He isolates three possible explanations in his 1959 essay on Haliburton. The first reason has to do with the arena for Haliburton's success:
Present-day accounts of the American tradition in literature assign no place to Haliburton, whose claims to be considered the founding-father of an American strain of humour have been, after all, understandably diminished by the fact of his not being home-grown. Similarly, and again understandably, Haliburton's name today finds little or no place in the annals of England's writers and men of affairs. … I suspect that this exclusion or neglect or whatever you want to call it comes about in both countries, not really on the grounds of...

SOURCE: Haliburton, Gordon MacKay. "The Planter Roots of Thomas Chandler Haliburton." Dalhousie Review 71, no. 3 (fall 1991): 292-309.
[In the following essay, Gordon MacKay Haliburton traces Thomas Chandler Haliburton's ancestry back to Boston and Scotland and argues that his views were influenced by the fact that he and his compatriots were all representative members of the third generation of the Planter community in Nova Scotia.]
Thomas Chandler Haliburton, the first Canadian writer to enjoy international acclaim, was, like all of us, moulded by a combination of genetic inheritance and by the environment around him in his early formative years. What were these influences in his case? Scholars and writers have examined them and have given answers to illuminate the reality they perceive, a reality conforming to their particular interests or arguments. Some detect as the chief element in forming his "Tory" personality, the Loyalist legacy of suffering and sacrifice imbibed at his mother's breast (Chittick 16). Others argue that his more rebellious Scottish Border ancestry made an important contribution to his literary "genius" (Logan 5).
It is surprising that no one has developed an argument founded on the premise that he was fundamentally what he was most likely to have been as a result of his ancestry and environment, a transplanted New Englander among a whole community...

[In the following essay, Panofsky details the publication history of The Clockmaker, focusing on the unauthorized reprintings of the first series in England and America.]
What is known today as Thomas Chandler Haliburton's The Clockmaker series began as a group of sketches entitled "Recollections of Nova Scotia." This series of twenty-one sketches appeared anonymously in the Novascotian, or Colonial Herald, a weekly newspaper published in Halifax by Joseph Howe. The weekly instalments of "Recollections of Nova Scotia" ran from Wednesday, 23 September 1835 to Thursday, 11 February 1836. The Novascotian was published on Wednesday "for the Country" and on Thursday "for the Town." Each sketch appeared in both the Wednesday and Thursday printings of the weekly. The sketches in the Novascotian were incorrectly numbered one through ten and twelve through twenty-two: number eleven was omitted from the sequence. This error applied strictly to the numbering of the sketches; it did not indicate the absence of a sketch.
Complete archives of the separate Wednesday and Thursday runs of the Novascotian do not exist in Canada or elsewhere. The excellent holdings at the Public...

[In the following essay, Clarke proposes that the writings of Haliburton and the Marquis de Sade have been consigned to obscurity due to their similar offensive views on reform—that liberalism is a false promise of equality and that the elite should rule by strength. Haliburton, a conservative, opposed capitalism, reformism, and abolitionism because he saw these as products of a liberal world resulting in a breakdown of the natural hierarchy. Sade, a liberalist, maintained that the strongest members should have the freedom to dominate the weak.]
Admittedly, the incendiary interrogative that sparks this essay derives from Simone de Beauvoir's Faut-il brûler Sade?, or, in English, Must We Burn de Sade?, the title of her 1953 polemic that sought to rescue the writings and philosophy of Donatien Alphonse François, Marquis de Sade (1740-1814), as just matter for intellectual scrutiny. The choice of title is not intended to marry Sade and Thomas Chandler Haliburton (1796-1865), English Canada's grand, definitive writer of the nineteenth century, for that would figure an antinomian perversity. Yet, a parallel between Sade and Haliburton exists: both men's...

[In the following essay, Panofsky compares Haliburton's derogatory treatment of women in the The Clockmaker series to the societal norms of the nineteenth century.]
In a recent overview of African-Canadian literature, George Elliott Clarke refers to Thomas Chandler Haliburton as "Canada's most vaunted early writer" (7). More than 160 years following the appearance of The Clockmaker sketches, which established Haliburton as British North America's premier writer, Clarke reaffirms the author's unrivaled, hallowed position in Canadian letters. From the moment of conception, it would seem, Sam Slick ensured Haliburton's renown as a comic genius and a writer of political vision. In fact, throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, literary historians and critics alike—from his earliest biographer V. L. O. Chittick to his most recent editor George L. Parker—have emphasized his humour and political themes when discussing Haliburton.
Like the privileged life he enjoyed, Haliburton's oeuvre occupies a place of privilege in our literary canon. To revisit his work in light of such contemporary concerns as...

New Album 'The Glorious Dead'
The Heavy - New Album 'The Glorious Dead'
Posted on 23/05/2012
Renegade English soul-rockers The Heavy are happy to announce the release of their new album, The Glorious Dead, released 21 August 2012 on Counter Records / Ninja Tune.
The Glorious Dead is the band's third full-length LP, and the follow-up to their acclaimed sophomore record The House That Dirt Built (2009). Self-produced and with their unique, raw eclecticism fully intact, it's their most fully-realized record yet, mixing together soul, hip hop, rock, blues and funk into glorious, raucous party music that is equally full of heart.
The first single is the soaring "What Makes A Good Man," follows in the footsteps of the band's sleeper hit "How You Like Me Now", which achieved gold status, selling half a million copies, helping the album achieve 150,000 sales. The song appeared everywhere from Entourage to The Fighter and saw David Letterman asking for an unprecedented encore of it when performed on his Late Show, all of which has helped usher in much success Stateside. Among the other highlights on The Glorious Dead include the horror film atmospherics of "Can't Play Dead" to the laid-back sincerity of "Curse Me Good," the funked-up hip hop rhythm of "Big Bad Wolf" and the epic, heavy-hitting gospel rock 'n' roll of "Same 'Ol." Throughout, vocalist Swaby's voice soars, packed with yearning and pure soul.
The Glorious Dead is available to pre-order now at The Heavy's webstore and the Ninjashop. You can hear the first single, "What Makes A Good Man," right now via Rolling Stone.

ATLANTA, Oct. 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Esteya®, an electronic brachytherapy system, has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), enabling medical centers in the United States to offer their patients with skin cancer a new treatment option.
Esteya is a new approach for high precision skin cancer treatment. The system relies on a small, high dose rate (HDR) to apply radiation directly to the cancerous site. This direct delivery enables Esteya to focus more therapeutic radiation on the disease target and to minimize radiation to surrounding tissues and organs. Electronic brachytherapy is well-suited for treating skin lesions, such as basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma, achieving a greater than 95 percent cure rate for this technique.
"The interest in Esteya among radiation oncologists during the American Society for Radiation Oncology annual meeting last week in Atlanta was encouraging," John Lapre, EVP Brachytherapy at Elekta commented. "They appreciated the efficient workflow, easy patient set-up, and the short treatment delivery time. They also cited the accessibility of Esteya – due to its compact design and reduced shielding requirements – allowing treatment to occur virtually anywhere patients are seen within the clinic."
The first installations of Esteya in the United States are scheduled to occur in the next few months.
To learn more about Esteya, visit Esteya.com.
Availability of Esteya in target markets is dependent on regulatory admissions and approvals.
