Future Surgeons: Principles of Anatomy
Aim: The main aim of this course is to increase awareness amongst senior medical students of the very important links between anatomy and surgical practice. Some years ago the Edinburgh Medical School Student Surgical Society approached the College requesting cadaveric anatomy teaching with a particular surgical emphasis. Several informal tutorial sessions were held, from which this course developed. The target audience now includes senior medical students (3rd year and above) from any medical school. The course does not aim to serve as a systematic anatomy revision course or to directly supplement any anatomy teaching the students may be receiving in their own medical schools.
Fee: £55 (£45 Student/ Foundation Affiliates of the College)

Protestors Worry Planned Parenthood Staff and Patients
Local Matters
VERMONT — There was a time when working at an abortion clinic necessitated wearing a bulletproof vest. Or stepping over chained protestors blocking the front door. In some cases, it meant giving your life. Is the past repeating itself at Planned Parenthood of Northern New England? Not quite, but employees say patients and staff are increasingly being harassed and intimidated at clinics in Vermont, Maine and New Hampshire.
Emily Blistein, PPNNE public affairs director for the state of Vermont, says workers throughout New England are reporting increased pro-life activity at their clinics. She points in particular to events at Burlington's Mansfield Avenue and Barre's Washington Street facilities. "It has sort of changed over the last few months, from a typical . . . handful of protestors to a larger group who are encroaching much more close to our property boundaries, and using protest techniques they haven't used in the past," says Blistein.
PPNNE staffers say they respect the protestors' right to be there, but add that the recent surge in activity has upset patients entering the facility. Particularly disconcerting was a discovery of fake bullets outside the Burlington clinic. Staffers found the faux ammo this past summer and reported it to the local police.
Patients have complained about one man — a regular — who sports red tape over his mouth with the word "Life" written across it. The man, says Blistein, has been seen standing on the Burlington clinic property line, alone or sometimes with a group of young protestors. He walks slowly and stares.
In April, a group of 40 protestors — presumably from outside Vermont — appeared with the red tape on their mouths, says Blistein. They stood directly in front of the health center, humming at entering patients and refusing to move out of the way. Blistein also says protestors have been seen taking notes in front of the building and sprinkling holy water on the sidewalk. Staffers think they may be writing down license plate numbers, or recording the comings and goings of patients and staff.
Patients also report being approached by protestors, who often hand out pro-life literature. "The patients have said they don't want people to come up to them about these personal decisions," says Blistein. "The patients that come to us are upset because they feel they are being judged, and they feel intimidated."
Planned Parenthood Assistant Director of Medical Services Erin Carmichael says that, in addition to upsetting patients, the recent protests have had a chilling effect on the staff. "The surge in activity is concerning because anti-choice activists have a history of threats and violence," says Carmichael. "The history is very real, and any reasonable person would feel threatened as their activity escalates."
Blistein believes the Roman Catholic Diocese of Burlington is responsible for the recent upsurge. She points to a column called "Montpelier Matters," which is written by Michele Morin and published biweekly by the diocese. Recent editions of the column, which appears in the Vermont Catholic Tribune, feature plentiful pro-life information, including guidelines on how to pray at abortion centers, approved by Bishop Salvatore Matano. "Montpelier Matters" also lists specific times, dates and locations of pro-life events at abortion clinics in Vermont.
Gloria Gibson, the Diocese's director of communications, denies it has anything to do with the recent increase in activity, describing the demonstrations as "spontaneous." "What you have is a lot of different people from different walks of life that feel the same," says Gibson. "All they do is pray. They don't have signs. They don't have messages. There's no demonstrations of any kind. They just simply pray . . . I don't even know what religions they are."
When pressed about the pro-life material in "Montpelier Matters," Gibson says Morin is merely a part-time columnist, and "a lot of the stuff she does is not initiated by and not promoted by the diocese."
When contacted, Morin refused to speak with Seven Days on the record. In an email response to a request for an interview, she said the diocese has never organized a protest at an abortion center. Morin attributes the effort to a Montpelier-based group known as the Vermont Right to Life Committee, whose executive director, Mary Beerworth, just happens to be Morin's sister.
When Seven Days asked Morin to comment on a recent issue of her column describing a "Peaceful protest at the abortion center in Barre," she did not respond. Morin's column also estimates how many "abortion customers" enter the Burlington clinic on a given day, a figure she reaches by observing how long each person stays in the building and whether they come with a companion.
"I think that's a bit disingenuous, to say that they don't have an organized effort," responds PPNNE's Blistein, adding that 97 percent of PPNNE's care is prevention-based, and most patients do not come to its clinics for abortions.
But VRLC's Beerworth doesn't shy away from the issue, and says county chapters of her organization do indeed spearhead local protests. Beerworth denies any knowledge of note taking, and says she has never witnessed blocked sidewalks or trespassing — later adding that VRLC does not condone protestors approaching or addressing those entering the clinic. But she admits, "You can't control everybody."
Beerworth also says VRLC's mission is "totally different" from that of the diocese. VRLC stays away from religious rhetoric and embraces protest. "Anyone who doesn't want to do it the way we do it is not welcome to join us," she adds.
Beerworth attributes the recent surge in protests to VRLC's efforts, as well as to a progressive increase in Vermont's abortion rate. She claims that, after dropping steadily each year since 1985, numbers of abortions have started to rise, and that about 15 abortions are performed each week at the Burlington clinic and about six in Barre. "In the end, they are primarily in the business of abortion," Beerworth says of PPNNE. "They may not like it, but it's the truth."
"It saddens us that the protestors claim to be there to help women, but they have no regard for the emotional effect their judgmental presence actually has," says PPNNE's Carmichael. She adds that encounters with the protestors have reduced some women to tears.
"We have a right to do it," says Beerworth. As for PPNNE, "If they're proud of what they do, it shouldn't be disturbing them in the least."
This month, PPNNE began enlisting the help of volunteers to escort patients in and out of the Burlington clinic. (Until the mid-1990s, the clinic contracted with an off-duty police officer to monitor the building.) When protestors do come on PPNNE's property, they get a warning before police are summoned.
Deputy Chief Mike Schirling of the Burlington Police Department says the cops responded to a call in August. A woman at the Burlington PPNNE clinic was "in the office yelling about ripping dead babies out of bodies," he reports. "She wanted to see where they were keeping the dead bodies."

This bike looks nice.Until you go to put it together. The directions are horrible, they are generic directions that could apply to any bike Huffy makes, you have to search through them to find the parts that apply to your bike with almost no clear diagrams showing you which parts are needed and very small text. There is no parts inventory to validate that you even have everything in the box.The final straw was that the front fork is too narrow and the front tire will not physically fit, meaning that instead of waking up to a new bike for his birthday, I have to run around trying to find another bike and try to salvage the day for my son. Thanks a lot Huffy, I will be looking for another brand from now on.

Quick service and delivery!

Bought this for my 3 yr old grandson for Christmas, quick delivery. I haven't opened the box yet though because it was delivered right before Thanksgiving. The box is in great shape so I'm not concerned.

About Me Casual/ Recreational
The bike was pretty easy to put together. We purchased it for our son's 3rd birthday. The pedals are a bit stiff and hard for him to push to rotate, but I think they'll become easier with use. The bike seems very sturdy.

This bike is really cute and was a great purchase! My little boy loves his new big boy bike. The only negative thing about the bike is the fact that there on stickers on it that will wear off and become faded with outdoor use.
great christmas gift
By busy school mom of 2
from shelby oh
I went to toysrus to get this bike for my son for Christmas. Unfortunately they did not have any in stock. So had to order it. Store said would not be in for 10 days. I bought it on a wed it came that same Saturday. Very fast with the shipping. I can not say how much my son loves his new bike because he won't be getting it for a couple months. But I took the bike out of the box to ensure everthing was in there. All the parts were in excellent condition and all parts were in the box. I was really impressed on the packing as well. O would recommend not only to purchase this but if the store does not have something in stock to order it because it's ships fast and is free to store.

Too hard to peddle
By Mom of two little boys
from Tampa, FL
My son is three and knows how to peddle and plays outside a lot. He is active and pretty strong. However, I was surprised that he could not make this bike at all. He was frustrated since he could not use the bike. We have to return it but are busy people. I think it was put together incorrectly in the store....I hope.

(NEWSER) – Two people have died, and 130 hospitalized in a plane crash at San Francisco Airport today. Additionally, some of the 291 passengers and 16 crew members who were on board Asiana Airlines flight 214 remain unaccounted for, San Francisco's mayor and a spokesperson from the San Francisco Fire Department said at a press conference, reports CBS. The San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center says it is currently treating eight adults and two children in critical condition, reports CNN. Early reports say the tail of the Boeing 777 broke off as the made a hard landing.
"The plane started coming in at an odd angle, there was a huge bang and you could see the cloud of huge black smoke," says a witness, per CBS. A passenger tells CNN that he thought it was coming in a little sharp, "All of a sudden, boom, the back end just hit and flies up into the air and everyone's head goes up the ceiling," he says. The plane came from Seoul, South Korea and had been in the air for 10 hours and 23 minutes. Flights in and out of the airport—California's second busiest—have been stopped, but the airport says it will be opening two runways "shortly," reports CNN.

Pretty little book, big laugh
Imagine our shock on our daughters big day when a guest discovered that our pretty little guest books title page said,
"Our Weeding"
No time to go get another book and I doubt we can get a refund on a book we had to use. I guess we have to just use it a as memory. Didn't ruin our day but certainly was a disappointment.

Product 652/1128
Book Summary Five Princesses. Five Dragons. A coincidence? I don't think so.
In the fairytale kingdom of Werthing Ton Fallorian (or WTF for short), fairytale folk have gone insane. With the imps of lust and wickedness on a rampage, no one is safe.
The Quest: Save the world. With sex... and magic? Definitely.
The Complication: Sex is deadly. Magic is broken. And nothing is going right.
Captured by an evil queen, chained to a sexy he-man of incredible proportions, and forced on a quest that no sane person would take, Princess Penelope must travel the treacherous swampland of Andvari. A terrible place of twisted magic where sex and murder are forbidden.
Shane Masters, on the other hand, believes every curse has its loophole, and every rule has a bend.
When their passion ignites, nothing can stop them. Not even death.
"The story was unique, well written, and so much fun... sexy and had just the right amount of wackiness to have me laughing. I really enjoyed the beautiful descriptions and the fun adventure as well as getting to know each of the characters."
"...an enchanting little tale that opened with a nice hook. The author's comical voice sparked my interest and kept me turning pages. With its interesting characters and charming plot... a must-read for any erotic fantasy lover."
"Ms. Montgomery tells an exciting story with lots of humor and an ending that will leave the reader breathless."
Princess Penelope came to slowly. A blanket of fog seemed to press on her thoughts. Her last memory was tainted, smeared by magic. Where am I? Her cheek was cushioned against a very firm pillow.
"Hello there."
A pillow that rumbled in a sexy baritone?
Penelope tried to sit up. It was then that she noticed it wasn't a pillow, but skin she was cushioned against. With shock, she realized she was lying on top of a man. She tried to move, but his large hands held her against a very sexy, and very hard body. She gaped at the sleepy-eyed and bare-chested rogue. His face was ruggedly handsome, as though chiseled from stone. If not for his expressive eyes and sensual lips, she would have thought he was a sculpture. Her fingers itched to trace the curve of his lips. A glint of color drew her attention, and she noticed the silky fall of streaked hair. Black and indigo. A mark of the fey. Absolutely stunning. For the first time in her life, Penelope was speechless.
"Where do you think you're going?" He buried his face in her hair and inhaled.
Shivers of delight ran down her spine. This would never do.
"Get your hands off me." She couldn't move her feet. He had his leg wrapped around her calves, trapping her. What in the five kingdoms was going on? Her last memory was foggy. She'd camped for the night. How did she end up here? And where was here? "You need to let me go, now." She tried a voice of command, but it came out like a breathless whisper.
"I can't do that." She could hear the smile in his voice.
"Let me down."
"I can't do that, either." His husky drawl made a woman think of morning sex and breakfast in bed.
She tried to push away, but his hold tightened until she gasped for breath. Anger burned away any bit of fear she might have had. Penelope collapsed against him with a huff. Fine. He wouldn't let her go. He shifted against her, and she nearly moaned at the evidence of his excitement.
It had been entirely too long since her husband's untimely death. Two years without sex was an eternity, but the curse on her house would extend to whomever she took to her bed.
It wasn't worth it. She let her gaze wander over the incredible build of the man. What she wouldn't give to have a go at this one. A spark of guilt ate at her.
She put her hands under her chin and stared up at the man. No hardship there. He was too handsome for words. His eyes flashed an intense blue. Entrancing. The same blue streaked through his dark hair. Magic. Fey magic. She froze. Was he working for Diane? "Why can't you let me go?"
"There are flesh-eating penumbra on the floor." He spoke the word with a clipped accent, one she'd heard her professors use when reading the old texts. That childhood memory was of a different time, a different life.
Penumbra. Why did she know that name? Penelope's eyes widened with realization. Penumbra were shadow beasts. Carnivorous, efficiently so. Another one of Diane's twisted creations. "Are you sure?"
His smile disappeared. "Your predecessor suffered. By the time he screamed, it was already too late. So I pulled you up here the moment you were dumped in the cell. They only come out at night and never rise above the floor, but I wasn't going to take that chance."
A knot of fear tightened in her chest. "Thank you for that."
His fingers toyed with her hair, gently caressing, lightly brushing against it. "It has been my pleasure, I assure you." He watched her with a sensual awareness that sent her body into a riot of sensation.
Penelope's body definitely liked the attention. Her nipples were hard points of sensitivity, and her pussy grew slick with sexual interest. From the way his eyes shuttered and the twitch of his cock against her stomach, she'd guess he was aware of how it affected her. She cleared her suddenly dry throat and looked around the small room. Crystalline bars surrounded them on three sides. The floor and ceiling were polished marble. No purchase there, and deadly slippery should they need the floor for traction. A solid wall behind them. How did I end up here? Was Diane behind this? Or someone working for her? It wouldn't be the first time a bounty hunter had tried to claim the reward.
"How did you get caged?"

Very well written OP. I'm probably the biggest Ultimate Doctor Doom fan in this forum, so I definitely feel your sadness.
I started a thread a while back explaining why I think Doctor Doom cannot possibly be dead. In case you haven't had a look: http://forums.comicbookresources.com...ive&highlight=
Ignore the later posts as it starts to get off topic, such as debating about Sue being smarter than Reed (which is rubbish).
As you said, that's hardly Millar's fault, he was told to do so by the editorials. At least he gave a plausible explanation, which didn't contradict continuity or change the character (he still has the goat legs, they're just covered up). I never see you giving Loeb shit for changing Thor's hammer or Sabretooth's adamantium claws. The former with a terrible cover-up and the latter with NO explanation whatsoever.
Yes, he despised Reed, so he wanted to take everything he had away from him, make him feel terrible.
Wrong again. Maybe you don't really understand Doom. As ebari said, Doom wouldn't allow Reed the glory and satisfaction of saving the world. So he did it himself. And he explicitly asked that he be remembered as the one who saved the world, showing that he's really doing it for the glory, to one up Reed. He was the exact same Doom as before.
And again I don't see you giving Loeb shit for changing characters like Thor, where they DO become extremely out of character. Instead I see you praising him for doing so.
While I do wish that most of the characters are still alive, I still wouldn't say f*ck "dead means dead". However, some "dead" characters can be brought back very plausibly without it being some "magical" ressurection.
Doctor Doom is an example. He should still be in the Zombieverse, and the one Ben killed could hardly have been Doom.
Or Wolverine. His incredible healing factor makes it possible for him to come back without it being a cheesy resurrection.
Janet can also be brought back, through the Jocasta Project, which still hasn't been touched on. Of course, I wouldn't expect her to be the same character as before but she can still be brought back without a cheesy resurrection.
Other characters that I'd love to see return are Hank Pym and Beast, but I don't see any way of bringing them back without it being a "magical" ressurection. As much as I love them, I'd say they should stay dead.

Bring back Ultimate Doctor Doom
Read my previous post, I did acknowledge Loeb's cover-up for Thor's wrong hammer. And as Robbie said the stone hammer was used throughout Loeb's book, highly unlikely that it was Mad's call.
And your bias is very clear. "Just because Sabertooth didn't use them doesn't mean he doesn't have those awful freaking things." Same thing for Doom, just because you can't see his goat legs doesn't mean he doesn't have them. And Millar actually had the decency to EXPLAIN it. He wasn't disrespecting Ellis because it was editorial's idea, AND he provided an explanation. Loeb on the other hand just decided to make Sabretooth use his fingernail claws like his 616 counterpart (which Sabretooth previously never did in the UU), with no explanation whatsoever.
Bring back Ultimate Doctor Doom
Not to mention it's not Millar's fault Greg Land had problems tracing goat legs.
"There's a reason i don't have a list of villains as long as Bruce's, Barry's or even yours. When i deal with them, i deal with them." - Wonder Woman to Superman. My Blog
I only read so many Ultimate books, but I got around to reading Ultimatum and thought there version of Doom looked small and weak. Is his name really 'Van Damme'? because I saw Time Cop when it came out and it was alright...
As a related note, when they got Joe Mad! back to do some comics, they should of had him doing a Thor book. Look at his Battlechasers stuff. It would of been killer.

Posts tagged but that was really just the worst thing in the world
i definitely didn't think you were excusing it!! (lol i've always wanted to say "it's a comic. fuck realism.") but yeah. ugh. the worst part about ultimates is them trying to be "realistic and gritty". sigh.
my friend Eddie REALLY likes ultimates and sometimes I just want to punch him because FUCK ULTIMATES, MAN
I read the first volume of Ultimates and I was like "Okay this is fine. I mean, it's a angsty but I suppose it is realistic and Cap is kind of a douche but maybe he's just sad and they'll work this out and be friends in the next volume." However I thought it was all pretty okay - stupid costumes aside (DO YOU THINK THIS A STANDS FOR FRANCE?!?! - instant classic)
then I read some more ultimates
and a little bit more

Summary of the Novel
Before reporting for work, migrant workers George Milton and Lennie Small spend the night on a peaceful riverbank. For the second time, George has to take away a dead mouse that Lennie has been petting. He consoles Lennie by recounting the story of their dream farm where Lennie will tend rabbits.
Before retiring, George tells Lennie to remember this place by the river, because if Lennie ever gets into trouble he must return here and hide in the brush until George comes for him.
Friday, in the ranch's bunkhouse, the men meet Candy, the old, crippled swamper; the boss's arrogant son, Curley, who is always ready to fight; and Curley's new wife, who is pretty and flirtatious.
Also entering the bunkhouse are Slim, an experienced and respected work-team leader, and Carlson, a ranch hand. Both men are friendly and welcome George and Lennie to the ranch.
Friday night, after a half day's work, Lennie goes to the barn to visit the puppy Slim has given him. Back in the bunkhouse, George confesses to a sympathetic Slim that they left their previous job because Lennie was accused of attacking a girl.
Later that evening, when Candy's dog, lame and blind with age, enters the bunkhouse, Carlson suggests that Candy shoot it to put it out of its misery. Candy reluctantly agrees to allow Carlson to shoot the dog with his Luger pistol. Though deeply saddened at the death of his longtime companion, Candy says later that he should have shot his dog himself, instead of letting a stranger do it.
Sitting in the bunkhouse, George and Lennie again talk of their dream farm. Listening quietly, old Candy offers his life's savings, half of the money they will need to buy the farm, if he can become a partner in their dream.
Curley and Slim return to the bunkhouse, arguing about Curley's wife. Curley sees Lennie smiling and accuses Lennie of laughing at him. He punches Lennie without retaliation. When George finally gives the word, though, Lennie catches Curley's hand and crushes it.
Saturday night, while the others are in town, Lennie wanders into Crooks's room, where Crooks tells Lennie of his loneliness. After Candy joins them, Curley's wife comes in. When they try to get her to leave, she professes her own loneliness and makes a deliberate attempt to talk to Lennie, but she is driven away by the return of the other ranch hands.
The next day, Sunday, Lennie returns to the barn to pet his puppy. Curley's wife comes in, talks to Lennie, and lets him caress her hair. When she tries to make him stop, he panics and accidentally breaks her neck. Realizing she is dead, Lennie flees.
Candy and George discover the body of Curley's wife, and they know the other men will want Lennie lynched. As the men are preparing a search party, Carlson announces that his gun is missing. In spite of George's insistence that Lennie would never kill on purpose, the men want Lennie shot on sight.
At the riverbank awaiting George, Lennie is confronted with images of his dead aunt and a giant rabbit, both chastising him for disappointing George. When George arrives, he comforts his friend. As he hears the others nearing, he helps Lennie imagine, for the last time, their dream farm. With great difficulty, he places Carlson's revolver at the back of Lennie's head and pulls the trigger.
Only Slim understands what has happened. He comforts George and reassures him that this was what he had to do.
Steinbeck drew heavily from his own experiences. Four of his novels, Tortilla Flat, Of Mice and Men, In Dubious Battle, and The Grapes of Wrath, and several short stories are set in and around his hometown of Salinas, California. Reflecting his own love of central California, these stories take place in towns, ranches, and valleys that lie between the Gabilan Mountains and the coastal Santa Lucia Mountains.
Steinbeck was also acutely aware of the social and economic problems of the times. Having lived during the Great Depression of the 1930s, during bread lines and soup kitchens, during labor unrest and escalating unemployment, he was spared the suffering that befell so many. But he knew first hand the problems that they faced.
Before the Great Depression, and between sessions at Stanford University, Steinbeck worked at odd jobs on California ranches. During one summer early in his college career, Steinbeck bucked barley on a ranch just south of Salinas. These experiences exposed him to the lower strata of society and provided him with material that would later appear in his novels of the 1930s.
Tortilla Flat (1935) drew on his experiences with Californian migrant workers living on the outer fringes of society. This was his first attempt to rouse an audience's pity for the conditions of transient laborers, but it was not to be his last.
Steinbeck continued to speak for the exploited man with In Dubious Battle (1936). This controversial novel was an account of migrant workers caught in a California labor strike. Steinbeck had witnessed up close the intolerable conditions under which these men were forced to work. He had seen certain groups who were badly hurt by the system in which they lived. In the novel he tried to create something meaningful from the behavior of these exploited people who were not able to speak for themselves.
Of Mice and Men (1937) maintains this focus on the migrant worker, here portraying his elusive dream of owning his own land. This is the same dream shared and lost by so many of the Depression era.
Following Of Mice and Men, Steinbeck continued his research into migrant worker conditions by spending four weeks with them, sharing in their living and working routines. He published several feature articles that reported on the dismal conditions he found. Steinbeck also drew from this experience while writing his Pulitzer Prize-winning The Grapes of Wrath (1939).
List of Characters
George Milton—The migrant ranch hand who takes care of Lennie. He is one of two main protagonists in the story. He is slender, small and quick, with a dark face, restless eyes, and sharp features. Taking care of Lennie shows George's need for companionship, but also his high moral character and compassion because Lennie is such a burden and George is completely loyal to him. George dreams of owning a small farm of his own, but his dream is lost.
Lennie Small—George's mildly retarded travelling companion and the other main protagonist in the story. He is a huge man, with large, pale eyes, a shapeless face, and sloping shoulders. Lennie is frequently portrayed in animal terms and loves to pet soft things. His name is an example of irony because he is large and possesses incredible physical strength, yet he has the mind of a child. Lennie also dreams of owning a farm with his friend George, but Lennie causes the ruin of their dream.
Slim—The master "skinner" or mule driver of the ranch. He is tall man with long black hair who does not feel the need to wear high-heeled boots. Respected by all, Slim is a master at his trade and has moral authority over the other men. Quiet, grave, and perceptive, he invites confidence by accepting people as they are. Slim respects Lennie's hard work and consoles George when Lennie dies.
Candy—The old crippled ranch hand who has lost a hand. Afraid of being fired when he gets too old to work, he offers his life savings to become a part of George and Lennie's dream. His companion is an equally old crippled dog that stinks; after Candy allows Carlson to kill the dog, he regrets not having done it himself.
Crooks—The black stable hand who is proud and aloof. His spine has been left crooked from a horse's kick, and he rubs liniment on his painful back. Bitter and lonely, Crooks lives in isolation in the harness room. His only recreations are an occasional game of horseshoes with other men, but most of the time he spends by himself reading. He listens with longing to Lennie tell of his dream ranch and he yearns to be part of it.
Carlson—The big-bellied ranch worker who kills Candy's old dog. Practical and down to earth, he focuses on actions and doesn't notice people's feelings. He provides the gun used by George to kill Lennie.
Curley—The boss's son. A little man, he is always looking for a fight, especially with men who are bigger than he. Curley has brown face and eyes, tightly curled hair, and a hot temper, and prides himself on having been a welterweight boxer. Recently married, he spends much of his time looking for his pretty wife.
Curley's wife—The pretty, flirtatious, and unnamed wife of Curley. She has red lips and fingernails and wears heavy makeup. Her hair hangs in tight sausage curls, and her red shoes are decorated at the instep with red ostrich feathers. She is said by the men to give them "the eye," and they brand her as a "tramp." She knows Curley is mean and does not like him. In her loneliness and unhappiness, she tries to make friends with Lennie. She is never given a name in the story.
The boss—Another unnamed character. He is a short, stocky man wearing high-heeled boots with spurs to show that he is not a laborer. Like his son, the boss has a hot temper and frequently takes his anger out on Crooks. At Christmas, he brought in a gallon of whiskey for the boys in the bunk house. He is suspicious of George's interest in Lennie.
Whit—A young laboring man on the ranch. He is friendly and likes to talk, but he is already stooped from the hard work on the ranch. He reads a letter to the editor of a Western magazine written by a former worker at the ranch.
Estimated Reading Time
Of Mice and Men is one of Steinbeck's short novels. It is only six chapters long, and about one hundred pages. It reads rather quickly, and it should take the average reader fewer than four hours to complete.
The novel can be divided into four sections, corresponding to the four days entailed in the plot, with each section taking place on a different day. Chapter 1 takes place on the Thursday night the men spend by the river. Chapters 2 and 3 cover Friday. Chapter 4 occurs on Saturday night. Chapters 5 and 6 contain the events of Sunday.
Summary (Masterplots, Fourth Edition)
Late one hot afternoon, two men carrying blanket rolls trudge down the path that leads to the bank of the Salinas River. One man, George Milton, is small and wiry. The other man, Lennie Small, is a large, lumbering fellow whose arms hang loosely at his sides. After they drink at the sluggish water and wash their faces, George sits back with his legs drawn up. Lennie imitates him.
George and Lennie are on their way to a ranch, hired to buck barley there. Lennie had cost them their jobs at their last stop in Weed, where he was attracted by a woman's red dress. He had grabbed at her clothes. He became frightened by her screaming and then would not let go of her; George was forced to hit him over the head to make him let go. They ran away to avoid a lynching.
After George lectures his companion about letting him talk to their new employer when they are interviewed, Lennie begs for a story he has already heard many times. It is the story of the farm they would own one day. It would have chickens, rabbits, and a vegetable garden, and Lennie would be allowed to feed the rabbits. The threat that Lennie would not be allowed to care for the rabbits if he does not obey causes him to keep still when they arrive at the ranch the next day. In spite of George's precautions, their new boss is not easy to deal with. He is puzzled because George gives Lennie no chance to talk.
While the men are waiting for the lunch gong, the owner's son,...

Summary (Magill's Survey of American Literature, Revised Edition)
The original manuscript of Of Mice and Men suffered a fate that gives writers nightmares: When Steinbeck and his wife were out one night, their dog, Toby, tore the first half of the finished manuscript to shreds. It was Steinbeck's only copy, so he had to rewrite half of the book. Steinbeck gave the dog meager punishment and said that he had a certain respect for the beast's literary judgment.
The book is one of Steinbeck's warmest. Lennie, a migrant ranch hand, is mentally retarded. George, also a migrant ranch hand, travels with him and looks after him. The story opens and ends on a riverbank off the main road, separated from the world of machines and impersonal technology. It is to this place that George tells Lennie to return in case of trouble. As in many of Steinbeck's novels, this riverbank, and the cave in which Lennie suggests that he and George might live away from the world, is a back-to-the-womb motif.
Lennie is large and strong. He likes soft, furry things. He likes them so much that he sometimes crushes the life out of them accidentally in showing his affection. He keeps mice in his pocket, but they do not survive his attention. Lennie lives on dreams. He longs for the day that he and George will own a little land and a house, a place where they can hide from a world that Lennie does not understand and that George does not trust. George and Lennie are different from the other ranch hands because they have each...

In a relatively short novel, Steinbeck is able to raise and discuss important human issues: the importance of friendship, the need for people to take responsibility for others less fortunate than themselves, the tragedy of circumstances interfering with people's plans for the future, and the insensitivity of some people toward those of different racial background, social status, or intellectual prowess. These social issues are dramatized in a carefully plotted story that keeps the reader's attention focused on the main characters, building to a violent climax in which the ethics of violent solutions to human problems are called into question.

Of Mice and Men opens with a physical description of the topography of the Central Valley of California. "A few miles south of Soledad," the Salinas river winds through an idyllic scene of yellow sands, golden foothills, and deer that come to the shore to drink at night. It is in this setting that we first meet Steinbeck's two protagonists, George Milton and Lennie Small. George is "small and quick, dark of face, with restless eyes and sharp, strong features." Lennie is "his opposite, a huge man, shapeless of face, with large, pale eyes, with wide, sloping shoulders." They have just come from the town of Weed in Northern California where Lennie had gotten into some sort of trouble, forcing them to flee south. There they are now looking for new work on a ranch. As the two talk it becomes clear that Lennie is mentally handicapped: he cannot quite remember what had happened in Weed; he speaks with a child's vocabulary; and he bursts into tears when George makes him give up the dead mouse that he has been secretly petting in his pocket. At first George lectures Lennie on what a burden he is, with the recent events in Weed as an example:
His voice rose nearly to a shout. "You crazy son-of-a-bitch. You keep me in hot water all of the time." He took on the elaborate manner of little girls when they are mimicking one another. "Jus" wanted to feel that girl's dress—jus' wanted to pet it like it was a mouse—Well, how the hell did she...

Summary and Analysis
Chapter 1 Summary and Analysis
New Characters
George Milton: migrant worker who cares for Lennie Small
Lennie Small: mildly retarded migrant worker, George's companion
Following a worn path from the highway, George Milton and Lennie Small come upon the peaceful banks of the Salinas River and stop to rest. After drinking from the river, George reminds Lennie of their destination, a ranch just up the highway where they will work bucking barley.
Sitting in this haven along the banks of the river, George notices Lennie has something in his pocket. When he makes Lennie give it to him, he discovers it is a dead mouse. Lennie says he has been petting it as they walked along. George throws the dead mouse away.
In the evening, George sends Lennie to collect firewood and hears him splash in the water. When he returns, George demands that Lennie hand over the dead mouse. Lennie had retrieved it from the brush pile where George had thrown it.
When Lennie begins to cry, George promises him a fresh mouse. In his frustration, he openly laments being burdened with the responsibility of Lennie. When Lennie offers to go off by himself, George recants and says they have to stick together. Together they have someone to care about them and they have a future, a dream of owning their own farm with rabbits that Lennie will tend.
Before retiring George asks Lennie to try to remember what this...

Chapter 2 Summary and Analysis
New Characters
Candy: the one-handed ranch custodian
The Boss: runs the barley farm
Curley: the boss's newly married, hot-headed son
Curley's wife: the pretty, flirtatious, unnamed wife of Curley
Slim: a jerkline skinner, the respected authority on the ranch
Carlson: an experienced ranch hand
Chapter 2 takes place in the bunkhouse of the barley ranch on Friday morning. George and Lennie enter the bunkhouse behind Candy, the old crippled swamper, an unskilled laborer who cleans up the bunkhouse. He shows them to their two beds and tells George and Lennie about the ranch, about the boss, and about Crooks, the stable buck. When George sees a can of bug killer left by the man who last occupied the bed, a blacksmith, he is concerned about lice. Candy reassures him that the place is clean, and that the boss is a fair man.
After George and Lennie finish making their beds, the boss comes in. When he questions the men about reporting late for work, he notices that George always answers for Lennie. Upon hearing Lennie talk, the man realizes Lennie's mental state. It makes him suspicious and he interrogates George. He asks George if he is traveling with Lennie just to take advantage of his traveling companion. But George allays his suspicions, at least for the time, and he lies to the boss, saying that Lennie is his cousin who was...

Chapter 3 Summary and Analysis
New Characters
Whit: one of the common farm hands who also lives in the bunkhouse
Crooks: a stable hand
Later that same Friday, Slim and George return to the bunkhouse. Outside the other men play horseshoes, while inside Slim and George discuss Lennie. According to George, he and Lennie were born in the same town. George knew Lennie's Aunt Clara who had raised Lennie from infancy. When she died, George became his caregiver. George denies that Lennie is dumb, saying instead that he is simple. He confesses that he played tricks on Lennie in the past but stopped when he realized Lennie's loyalty was so strong that he would do anything George required.
George also tells Slim why he and Lennie left their last job in Weed. Lennie had seen a girl's dress that he thought was pretty, so he reached out to touch it. When he did, the girl began to scream. Lennie panicked, gripped the dress, and wouldn't let go until George hit him in the head with a fence picket. When the girl reported that she had been raped, Lennie was in danger of being lynched, so the two men fled.
When Lennie comes in, hiding a newborn pup that Slim has given him, George demands that he give it back to its mother. He explains that Lennie will kill the pup if it isn't returned to its mother. Slim commends George for his efforts and agrees that Lennie is a "nice fella," a good-hearted person who...

Chapter 4 Summary and Analysis
Chapter 4 takes place on the following Saturday night. It is set in the tidy room of Crooks, the Negro stable buck, who tends to the horses and mends the leather items used with the animals. His room, a shed built against the wall of the barn, is decorated in much the same way as the bunkhouse, except he keeps in his room his leather working tools and medicines. His room also contains more personal items, including books. He has a dictionary and a copy of the California civil code. Crooks is himself crooked, bent to the left by a crooked spine. Steinbeck describes him as a "proud, aloof man," who keeps his distance and demands that the others on the ranch keep theirs.
Crooks is sitting on his bed rubbing medicine onto his back when Lennie appears at his doorway, smiling. He explains that he has come into the barn to look at his puppy. He says that the others have gone into town and that he has gotten lonely. Though Crooks is at first reluctant to have one of the white farm hands in his room, he eventually yields.
Crooks decides aloud that Lennie is completely crazy and that Lennie often doesn't understand and can't remember what George talks about. He recognizes, too, the need of one man to have the company of another, even if it is just someone to talk to, who can't understand completely.
Enjoying his intellectual superiority over Lennie, Crooks begins to taunt him, telling him to imagine...

Chapter 5 Summary and Analysis
Chapter 5 takes place in the barn on the following Sunday afternoon. As the men are playing horseshoes outside, Lennie sits alone in the barn. He is thinking and worrying about his dead puppy, upset that he accidentally killed it even though he didn't bounce it very hard. He debates with himself over whether this is a bad thing. It is not bad enough to mean he must go and hide at the clearing, but it may be bad enough to make George so mad he won't let Lennie tend the rabbits when they buy their ranch. Deciding that George will be angry, he throws the puppy across the barn. Shortly thereafter he retrieves the puppy and buries it in the hay.
When Curley's wife comes into the barn, Lennie declares that he will not talk to her because George has told him not to. If he does, Lennie will not be allowed to take care of the rabbits. Curley's wife stays, saying that she just wants someone to talk to, and she insists that the others won't be mad because they will not know.
With Lennie listening, she tells him in detail how she could have been an actress in the movies. She even confesses, as she hasn't before, that she doesn't like her husband.
Lennie, stroking his puppy throughout her discourse, shows no signs of listening to her. When she finishes talking, he begins speaking on the subject which has occupied his mind, escaping punishment for killing the puppy and being allowed to tend the...

Chapter 6 Summary and Analysis
This final chapter takes place where the first chapter began, at the green pool of the Salinas River in the late afternoon. As before, Lennie comes to the sandy clearing and goes to the pool to drink.
Sitting on the bank Lennie begins to hallucinate and he talks to his dead Aunt Clara who had raised him. She scolds him, saying the same things George has always said to him at such times. When she disappears, a gigantic rabbit takes her place. It tells Lennie that he isn't worthy of tending rabbits. It tells him that George is going to beat him and leave him. When George comes out of the brush, the rabbit too disappears.
Lennie, at once, confesses that he has done a bad thing and invites George to scold him. George tries, but only with Lennie's prompting finishes, going through their usual routine.
When George hears the men closing in on them, he tells Lennie to look across the river. As he describes for the last time the farm that he and Lennie have so long dreamed of, he lifts Carlson's gun from his side pocket. With great difficulty he points it at the back of Lennie's head, and as his hand shakes violently, George pulls the trigger.
The men then quickly come out of the brush to join him in the clearing. Slim comes over to where George is sitting and sits beside him, consoling him.
Carlson asks how it happened. George lies and says that he took the gun from Lennie and...

King Noah doesn't listen. Instead, it came to pass that he commanded his priests to kill Abinadi.
(17:1) "And now it came to pass that when Abinadi had finished these sayings, that the king commanded that the priests should take him and cause that he should be put to death."
But Abinadi's words were not spoken in vain. There was at least one who heard him. He was a descendant of Nephi, and his name was Alma.
(17:2) "But there was one among them whose name was Alma, he also being a descendant of Nephi ... and he believed the words which Abinadi had spoken ... therefore he began to plead with the king that he would not be angry with Abinadi."
But King Noah's mind was made up. He was going to kill Abinadi, and now he was going to kill Alma, too.
(17:3) "But the king was more wroth, and caused that Alma should be cast out from among them, and sent his servants after him that they might slay him."
(17:4-10) Alma got away from Noah's priests, and he hid in the woods for a few days. Noah threw Abinadi in prison, and then brought him out to hear his sentence: Death. Abinadi held to his words, and threatens Noah one more time.
(17:4) "But he fled from before them and hid himself ... being concealed for many days did write all the words which Abinadi had spoken."
(17:5) "The king caused that his guards should surround Abinadi and take him; and they bound him and cast him into prison."
(17:6-7) "After three days ... he said unto him: Abinadi ... thou art worthy of death."
(17:8) "For thou hast said that God himself should come down among the children of men."
(17:9) "Abinadi said ... I will not recall the words which I have spoken."
(17:10) "And if ye slay me ye will shed innocent blood, and this shall also stand as a testimony against you at the last day."
(17:11-13) This almost scares King Noah enough to release Abinadi. But then his priests goad him on, and he is forced to burn Abinadi to death. That's how it goes sometimes.
(17:11-12) "King Noah was about to release him ... But the priests lifted up their voices against him ...Therefore the king ... delivered him up that he might be slain."
(17:13) "And it came to pass that they took him and bound him, and scourged his skin with faggots, yea, even unto death."
(17:16-19) While he was burning, he cursed them, saying they will be burned, afflicted with disease, hunted by their enemies...
(17:16) "Ye shall be afflicted with all manner of diseases because of your iniquities."
(17:18) "Ye shall be hunted, and ye shall be taken by the hand of your enemies, and then ye shall suffer, as I suffer, the pains of death by fire."
(17:19) "Thus God executeth vengeance upon those that destroy his people."
(17:20) So Abinadi died, "sealing the truth of his words by his death."
"When Abinadi had said these words, he fell, having suffered death by fire; yea, having been put to death because he would not deny the commandments of God, having sealed the truth of his words by his death."
