Tougli Story. turkey for my Christmas least I started out to buy— The best one in the market to obtain I meant- to try; Thought I, It shall ndt be my fault If In the town there bo A better turkey than tho one tbat shall bo brought to me. I at a corner stopped as up the street I took my way, Where on a stand there, Improvised, a Binglo turltoy lay. My look of Inquiry at onco tho watchful dealer caught, And, coming forth, a oustomer to make of me be sought. " Come, lot me sell you that," said he, with smiles upon bin face; " A better one I know you cannot find in all the place; Of all the stook of turkeys that I brought to town with me, purchasers have found for all except the ono you see. Aud, If I oan dispose of it, this one the fiftieth makes— They took so with tho people that they went off like hot cakes; • And it is not three hours quito since my sales'began. Would you believe it, sir? I sold four turkeys to one man. " Now, as I really do not care that single one to keep, And, wishing soon to start for home, I'll nell t to you cheap." Quite taken with the man's address, I credulously heard All that ho said to me about that solitary bird. The turkey was a large ono, and in truth looked plump enough; Moreover, how was I know that all he sal.l was stuff? So, laying down the needful stamps, I brought my fowl away— Truly a foul transaction was the one that marked tbat day. How littlo thought I, as toward my domicile I strolled, Tbat not alone the turkey but its purchaser was sold, And that tho smiling man, whose face seemed stamped with honesty, Was an outrageous swindler, and had mado a goose of mo! But to resume my narrative: I took the turkey home, And to my Christmas-dinner I invited friends to come; Requested of my kitchen maids to have it nicely done, And to prepare it so tbat it should be excelled by none. On Christmas day my friends and I assembled at my board, Wbich teemed with all tho luxuries the market conld afford; The dishes, filled with delicacies, made a grand array— To crown the pleasing picture, in tho midst tho turkey lay.

I To say a grace o'er such a fowl was a disgrace and fiktime; True, it was Innocently done—our friend was not to blame. Could he have known it was a fraud, as afterward be knew. Ho would not have allowed himself so mesh a thing to do. I- Well, then, "the brother," in good faith, compiled 1 with my request- Over that bird he Baid a grace with fervor and with j zest; I And it was rendered gracefully, and nicely worded, too, And, much impressed, we all "gave oar" uutil he had got through. Now, all things being ready, with my gleaming knife in band, To carve the turkey, at tho table's head I took my stand; That it was somewhat bard to cut misgivingB might havo caused, But, thinking that tho knife was dull, I helped my guests and paused. Then to the eating of his share did each himself address. But in a trice the wholo of thom showed signs of dire distress; They could not with that meat between thom bring their jaws together, For oh I that bird was not a whit more tender than whit-leather. Oh I what a wretched sight was tbat to seo them crunch away, Whilo each one at his neighbor glared with looks of wild dismay 1 They found that fowl for toughness by nothing tongh excelled, And, as they could notchewit, to eschew Itwerc compelled. The faces of the company reflected their chagrin. And I—ah 1 who Bhall paint the tribulation I was tny— stood as though fo marblo turned, not knowing A'hat to do, Wishing the floor would open wide and let me tumble through. There was no holping it, and I had but ono course to take— Au awkward explanation I was thero compelled to make; And then, to make the best of an extremely bad affair, I took my friends to a saloon and ordored turkey there. A sumptuous Christmas feast was Boon upon that table seen; All hands enjoyed it—champagno flowed—all was again serene; And each one made a vow that, should ho o'er that dealer see, He'd put ahead upon tho man that got ahead of me.

Yes, it was a marriage " for love;" there was 110 denying that. Many a wealthier, wiser, prettier and more prudent girl would have been glad to have the Bev. Beranger Haslem—in his own congregation, too—but he must needs pick np this strange wilding from some outlandish place, and set at the head of his influential city church, as "pastor's wife;" and, peeing that she had no money, family nor expectations, what else could, he have chosen her for but blind, stupid love ? And yet, but four months after the " coming home," behold Laurette in her husband's study, where sho sits with corrugated brow before his half-written sermon, not crouching lovingly on the foot-stool beside him, with her dainty toy work in her lap, as the normal run of idyls would have it, but standing before him, the table between them, passionate tears in her eyes, reproach, despair on her countenance, her hands clasped in a frenzy of woe! " Why did you ever bring me here?" she shudders out in tragic, breathless gasps; "not because you loved me. Ah, no, Beranger, never that! Don't seek to comfort me by your cold assurances. I know better now!" "My dearl my dear!" expostulates Mr. Haslem, gently, but in rather a discouraged tone, as jf he was finding his better-half a bit of a.handful to manage. Mr. Haslein ia a great'man; his heart is in his work, and Jus true desire is to do his duty in the sphere in whioh God haa placed him; but if he had not also placed his heart, in the keeping of this restless, eager girl, he would never have taken her to be the companion of his life; consequently these wild words fall almost like an outrage on his ears, though he assures himself she can surely never mean them, nor do him such injustice. " Yes, yes, I know that I only trouble you!" cries Laurette, the burning teats beginning to fall over lier scorching cheeks—" that I have no place here but to cause anxiety—that but for me you would be a happier and more successful man. I know all that 80 well I am no comfort to you, no advantage in your work, and I have come to " "Laurette," interrupts ,he, wildly; " have I ever said anything like this to you!" " Oh, no, no! You are too patient and good, but I know—I know you never would have chosen me, Beranger, but that you took pity on my great love for you, which I, poor fool! could not hide I" " Why will you torture yourself thus, dear? Do yon find me unkind or neglectful to you, that you should fancy such things?" "No, too kind; too considerate!" murmurs the young wife, wringing her hot hands; " too uncomplaining for it to be real. Don't I know what your wife should be? Why didn't you marry a wise, useful young lady, whose poor, foolish heart would not torment you with so much lovo and yearning? You don't need any worship—it is only extravagance to you I" " I thought I wanted it, Laurette, or I would not have asked you for it," sighs Mr. Haslem, feeling words to be idle, while she will twist them so strangely. "But you know better now,"gasps Laurette, with a hysterical laugh, "and so do I, to my despair, Oh, Beranger, never think that I blaniecl youl". . , -a ■ /_ ■ ... '.t'-f^'J- She stands a mouient, whitening to i^^mmfi0mmwmm flu.;. if slfe longed, even yet to cast herself at his feet, and implore his tenderness or forgiveness, but his eyes are on his unfinished sermon, longingly as it seems, and she turns away and creeps softly from the room as if crushed. " My darling," begins the young husband, looking up, and then he discovers that he is alone. " After all," he muses, " it is better to leave her to come to reason herself— she always does—and then lean tell her, perhaps, more strongly than I have ever done, how deep and strong my love is for her. Poor little Laurette, I wonder why she doubts me ? " But it is Saturday evening, and his sermon must be finished, so he puts away domestic perplexities with an effort, and plunges into theology. With all his excellencies—and he is truly an affectionate, ever-thoughtful husband—Mr. Haslem does not altogether understand the way to treat his Laurette. She is passionately loving, impulsive, diffident, and full of nervous, generous, impossible fancies; he, calm, strong, well-balanced, earnest in affection, inflexible in duty. She is stung to frenzy by some words which malice has poured into her ears, burdened with thoughts and cares, and hours of pain, whose meanings she dare not understand, but which drive her fevered, craving heart the closer to him; and he, all unconsoions of the teeming, surging fancies, all unknowing of those sorrowful, heavy hours, wonders at the inequality of her spirits, and her many exactions, while lie loves her none the less nor neglects Jiis duties a whit the more. , You might call them, at this stage of the Idyl, Snow -md Pire, and wonder little at the sequel. It was close ch Sunday morning when the pastor put away his work and thought of rest! Never mind, it was a good sermon, jnnd before leaving his study he prayc-1 humbly that it might be blessed tolsome among his flock, perhaps even *f> his own ewe lamb. Laurette ha| not yet retired. Foolish girl, she njist be sitting alone down stairs waitingior him. The gas wri not lit in the parlor, but at the sound *ff his steps in the hall the housekeeper,*^ elderly woman with a peculiarly cap- eye, came up from the kitchen regifti, a note in her hand. "Mis' Sas^m has gone out, sir, and she told me notfo disturb you on no ac- coant till yni would come down, and to give you th""* note. I expect, sir," said the womarijjdemurely smoothing down her apron j wli her stealthy eye watched hii master's face, "she's gone to spend tfe evening at some of them friends of tters, and wants you to go for her. It'si rainy night for you to go out after jfbur work, sir, but—he I he 1— you'll nofget the comfort with a young wife thatfou had when you was your own maefr!" But IVr. Haslem was deaf to |old Mortha'ejvords of wisdom. He hd torn open the note, and read what ttfped him cold and blind'as stone. i| This iom his own little wife I I am j&ing away—out of your life forever, Berango*."!

Mr. Hasl*?ja is once more in his study, waring at his Ohristmas sermon, with care'-, and weary sadness in his pale face-rH*. heart fighting for truth amid uracil despair within. The room had not that bright, dainty air it wore six months ago, though old Martha prided herself on taking the best of core of " her ministor." The fire bnrned dimly, half-smothered in ashes; the books were piled anyhow; tho little sewing-chair -waited on the hearth—waited still! On tks night the Child of the world was bom—the Holy Babe who was to bring such joy. Suddenly the door was opened wide, bnt siljtofclyj.and Laurette stood there, tho snfiir. oa bej- poor garments, a great, light growing, on her white ritt'jwr aniatwtdhtA'agt**! nibr-«at """ " __ * WTfftt a phantom ?

"Beranger!" breathed Laurette, timidly, "I've brought yon a Ohristmas gift—-our child!" "My God!" ejaculated Mr. Haslem; "is this possible?" He put his arm around them, and, scarce conscious, drew them to the fireside, placed her in the vacant ohair, fell on his knees before her, and, trembling exceedingly, pressed them both to his heart. " Oh Lord, Thou hast been kind and pitiful!" he gasped. "Are you glad?" whispered the lost Lugrette, between quivering heartbeats; or shall I leave him with you, and go away and leave you in peace?" He tightened his embrace, and moaned as he kissed her. " Still doubting, my darling—my darling? Oh, how could you desert me so? Am I so poor a husband to you as that?" "Oh, tell me to stay! Let me hear you bid me welcome!" rang out the young voice, with its old, passionate, yearning cadence. " God witness between us that my heart is entirely set upon you," cried Beranger, solemnly; "and that I have known no moment of happiness since I lost you. I never loved another—never desired other woman than you; and though I might have seemed cold in my manner, darling—I always loved you first and best, and deepest of all earthly gifts to me 1" " How good—how good God has been to send me back to you!" wept Laurette, winding her arms about him she had so mistrusted. " I didn't taink it possible you would forgive and take me home; I thought you would be stern and hard, as good men often ore to the weak and wicked." "Why did you go, dearest?" whispered Beranger, fondly. "I'm not going to—yes, I'll never conceal any trouble from you again," said the young wife, determinately; "and this was what turned me wild altogether. Old Martha never liked my coming here, and always was telling me what changed times you had—how none of your friends would come to the house because they weren't pleased with your choice, and how unhappy you seemed to be; and at last she told me there was a young lady you had been engaged to, a good, pious, energetic worker in the church, that the congregation would have been delighted with—Miss Vanson, you know -and, ahl me, when I compared my useless self to her, and remembered how my lovo must have made you take me out of pity, I couldn't —couldn't stay to be a burden " "Hush, my beloved wife; don't cry on this happy, white night of our lives! That was all false, and Martha shall find a place elsewhere. Now, tell us about this little fellow." They both pored over the soft waxen faco of the sleeping infant, joy in the mother's and in the father's eyes. "He came three weeks ago," murmured Laurette, blushing happily, "and it was to give him to you I lived and worked so hard. He kept me from despair and wrong many a dark day, and so, as soon as I could travel, we came." , "Our little boy," breathed-the pastor, softly kissing him, and then, with tender, but most grieving reproach,- he cried: "Oh, how could you leave me, and battle through it alone—and I never knew?" So that was how Laurette came back to Beranger Haslem. The Cultivation of the Oyster. Prom an illustrated article by Mrs. S. B, Herrick, in Scribner's Monthly. descriptive of the unique methods pursued in " The Johns Hopkins University" of Baltimore, we quote the following extract from the forthcoming report of the Summer School of Biology connected with the institution: " The investigations regarding the development of the oyster have led to the important and unexpected conclusion that the breeding habits of the American oysters are so different from those of the oysters of Europe that the methods of artificial oyster propagation which have been carried on to such perfection in France and elsewhere must in this country be replaced or supplemented by others. The eggs of the European oyster are fertilized and hatched within the shell of the parent, and are retained there until the young are ready to attach themselves. The most critical period in tho life of the young is the time when they are discharged from the parent shell to swim in the water until they find a place to settle down for lifo. The adult oysters are accordingly placed, at the breeding season, in inlets or basins, among tiles which are prepared to furnish a surface for the attachment of the young as soon as they escape from the shell of the parent. " The eggs of the American oyster are discharged into the water before they are fertilized, and, as fertilization in the open sea is a matter of chance, this is the period of greatest mortality. The experiments of the last summer have shown that the eggs can be artificially fertilized in the laboratory, in a small quantity of water, and the great- eat danger to the young can thus be escaped. Since the young^ American oyster swims at large in tho open sea daria&the fontf'which .ihe oysters of tW «keil <*f the seem to be imprachcabie7for,tlie''''ticIea'' and currents might carry the young twenty miles or more from the tiles before they were old enough to attach themselves. The proper -method in this country seems to be the placing of great numbers of artificially-fertilized eggs in those waters which are shown by the presenco of natural oy3ter-tanks to be favorable to the growth of tho animals. While the French method may be pursued to the advantage of the cultivator, and may therefore be left to individual enterprise, the proposed method would be for the benefit of the whole community, and seems to be a proper field for aotion by the State." What He Mistook for a Dog. A young man who had recently ar rived from the East was engaged at the United States fishing establishment on McCloud river. One day last week he took a towboat and pulled up the river a short distance, crossed to the opposite side, and prepared to go ashore. Just as he was stepping out of the boat, the young man looked up on the bank over his head and saw what he thought was a large mastiff dog. "Some of those Indians have stolen him," he thought to himself, "and I will take him home with me." Climbing the trail with difficulty, he was soon face to face with his mastiff. He whistled, and snapped his thumb and fingers coaxingly, but, instead of taking his advances kindly, the animal uttered a low growl, and, oscillating his tail from side to side, prepared to go for that young man. The latter, now terribly alarmed, started for his boat, tumbling headlong down the hill, and just managed to get into his craft and push it into the stream as an immense specimen of the California lion landed upon the shore. Of course, the lion would not take to the water, so the young man was safe; but he says he shall be careful how he makes overtures to strange dogs in a strange country after this. He was entirely unarmed at the time, and, after he got into his boat, heard the growls of another in the bush, showing that there was j evidently a pair of the "creatures." Portland Oregonian.

The United States Consul General at Berlin, Mr. Kreismann, has communicated to the Department of State a new process paten ted in Germany for preservation of the dead. The liquid used is prepared as follows: In 3,000 grammes of boiling water are dissolved 100 grammes of alum, 25 grammes of cooking salt, 12 grammes of saltpeter, 60 grammes of potash, and 10 grammes of arsenic acid. When cool it is filtered, To 10 liters of this liquid & liters of glycerine and 1 liter of methylic alcohol are added. The process of embalming is by saturating and impregnating the bodies with it. Prom 1-J to 5 liters of the liquid are used for a body. Pbenoh history in the past hundred years exhibits three women who have perhaps experienced more splendor and more bitter grief and mortification than any other three women in the world— Marie Antoinette, Josephine, and Eugenie.

A little Waterloo Sunday-school miss was asked by her teacher, "What must people do in order to go to heaven?" "Die, I suppose," replied the little one. Tho teacher did not question her any further. " Who," said a member of the Canadian House of Commons to the members who were trying by interruptions to choke him off, " who brayed here ?" " It was an echo," retorted a member, amid a yell of delight. After spending three mortal hours in getting to windward and crawling carefully toward two supposed big buffaloes, a Western hunter found his supposed game to be a St. Louis girl taking a walk on the prairie with her ear-muffs on. Young men should always beware of the following paragraph, which was started by a Philadelphia paper, and is now going the rounds. The chances - are that the man who wrote it is tied to a woman with a hand like a Japanese fan, and a voice that would make a buzz- saw pause in astonishment. It reads: " Marriage is a safe way to gamble; if you win, you win a pile, and if you lose, you don't lose anything." BEMINISOENCES OF StJMMEE.

Occasionally you will meet a young man who gets on the train somewhere in Ohio, and when some fellow passenger asks him how far he is going, he will say, "Omaha!" in the tone of a brakeman calling a station, and then look up and down the car to observe the amazement and awe of tho other passengers, and you will notice that he looks a little bit disappointed because they do not take off their hats and ask to shake hands with him and want to know where he comes from and all about Mm. But by-and-by when he learns, from casual remarks dropped carelessly now and then, that the man behind him is going to San Proncisco, and the one in front of him is going to Japan, and the old fellow on the other side of the aisle is just returning from St. Petersburg, the young man drops his voice to a husky whisper, shrinks down into his duster so that no one can see him, and tells the next man who asks him about it that he is only going out here a little ways.—Burlington Hwwk-Eye. n 4 ^& it

The all-star guests on "true love" range from legends Like Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, and Bonnie Raitt to younger stars including No Doubt, The Roots, and Trey Anastasio. The caliber of these collaborators reveals the impact that Toots has had on several generations of rockers and rappers, while appearances from reggae icons Bunny Wailer and Marcia Griffiths show the respect granted to the man who might be the musics greatest living vocalist. At the heart of it all is that voice - drenched in soul, rooted in gospel, and still breathtakingly powerful after almost four decades in the spotlight.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Nikon AF-S DX 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR Lens by Dave Bar When you're photographing high-intensity sports or high-energy toddlers, fast autofocus can be your best friend. It can make all the difference between crisply focused images of that winning soccer goal or junior blowing out the birthday candles, and a blurry mess. Nikon's AF-S DX 55-300mm VR zoom lens gives you the impressive telephoto power and fast autofocus you need for taking rapid-fire shots of far-off subjects, or even ones as close as 4.6 feet. Its versatile focal range and optical performance make this lens a great choice for snapping sparkling clear images with your Nikon digital SLR camera. Steady your hand-held shots The lens has built-in Vibration Reduction so your photos will come out crisp in all different sorts of lighting conditions. Built-in motion sensors steer a special set of optical elements inside the lens, neatly compensating for camera movement and stabilizing the image. You get much sharper pictures even in low-light conditions where slower shutter speeds and hand motion can easily cause blurred images with a regular lens.

Features Specifications Warranty Information Features Overview: The Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 55-300mm, f/4.5-5.6G ED VR lens is a 5.5x telephoto zoom lens, ideal for capturing distant subjects at athletic events, family pictures, sunsets, and travel shots, etc. It is designed for use with compact DX-format cameras, but can be used with larger FX-format cameras in the DX Crop Mode. The angle of view is equivalent to a focal length of 82.5 to 450mm in FX/35mm format D-SLRs. Super Integrated Coating: Nikon's Super Integrated Coating (SIC) enhances light transmission efficiency and offers superior color consistency and reduces flare. ED Elements: Two built-in Extra-low Dispersion (ED) elements offer superior sharpness and color correction by effectively minimizing chromatic aberration, even at the widest available aperture. High Refractive Index: The lens features a High Refractive Index (HRI) lens element which keeps the lens compact while offering high contrast, even at maximum aperture. Silent Wave Motor (SWM): The exclusive Nikon Silent Wave Motor (SWM) enables fast, accurate, and quiet auto focus. Focus Mode Switch: You can easily switch between manual and auto focus operation by using the convenient A-M Focus Mode Switch, located on the barrel of the lens. If the camera is set to Manual Focus, the focus mode is Manual, regardless of the setting of the switch. For Auto Focus, both the camera and the lens must be set to AF. Nikon VR II Image Stabilization: Engineered specifically for each VR Nikkor lens, the Vibration Reduction II Image Stabilization enables shutter speeds at up to 4 stops slower than would otherwise be possible. Vibration Reduction is performed through a lens-shift method using voice coil motors (VCMs). Even when the camera is mounted on a tripod, Vibration Reduction can reduce vibrations that may occur due to the shutter release. You can turn Vibration Reduction on or off using the VR switch on the barrel of the lens. Diaphragm: The lens is equipped with a rounded 9-blade diaphragm, which renders a more natural appearance of out-of-focus image elements. Lens Hood: The lens comes with the HB-57 snap-on type lens hood. The hood adds approximately 1-5/8" to the overall length of the lens. You can invert the hood and snap it onto the lens for storage, if desired. Specifications Type of Lens: Type G AF-S DX lens with a built-in CPU Type of Mount: Nikon F-bayonet type Filter Diameter: 58mm Focal Length: 55-300mm Closest Focus Distance: 4.59' at all zoom positions Aperture Range: f/4.5 to f/22 at 55mm; f/5.6 to f/29 at 300mm Lens Construction: 17 elements in 11 groups with 2 ED lens elements, and one HRI lens element.

Nice quality perfected product! Pros: All is nice, what sharpness! Cons: None. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Sweet Lens Written By m, Lansing, MI on Monday, April 28, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Sweet Lens! Zoom is awesome for sports events and finding things in the distance. It's a bulky lens but worth it to capture those moments that are too far away for a standard shot. Pros: Great Zoom and great images captured through this lens. Cons: Bulky and sometimes slow auto focus during sports. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Nice Telephoto Lens Written By James, DFW, TX on Friday, March 21, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Was contemplating on getting either the Nikkor 70-300VR or the 55-300VR. Read reviews where the AF on the FX lens 70-300 was much faster than the 55-300. Ended up getting the 55-300 because this is a lens I probably will not use too often plus price difference between it and 70-300. So far so good, AF is fast and accurate. Good VR at the long end. Pros: Value, sharp, light Cons: Low light photography 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes | No 5 out of 5 Nikon AF-S DX 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR Lens Written By Anonymous, Fitzgerald, GA on Wednesday, January 22, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great Lens Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Just Started Using it and I'm Impressed Written By JasmineW, Coventry, CT on Wednesday, December 25, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) It's hard to give this a rating when I've only had the opportunity to use it twice. My rating could change after I have more experience with this lens. I got this lens specifically to take photos of birds. The first evening I used it, it was already pretty dark and there was snow cover. The birds were out of focus. Since I try to photograph birds at high speed, I think I was asking too much of the camera/lens. The next time I used the lens the lighting was perfect and I got a gorgeous photo of a downy woodpecker. I did not expect to do this well before getting used to the lens. So at the moment I'm very happy with it. The woodpecker was probably about 20" away and I have not had the opportunity to photograph anything that's extremely far away. So far, I have found the focal area to be smaller than I like, but I haven't played around with different options either. Pros: I've only used this lens a couple of times and in good light I was impressed with the picture quality. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 DX 55-300 mm Lens Written By JudyLee, Soddy, TN on Saturday, September 28, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great It gives lots of options in shooting outdoor action. Pros: Response quickly in change of angles and distance. Cons: You have have about 5 - 6 foot distance from subject so inside shots are limited. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 For the money, you can't go wrong Written By A guy who likes Nikon, Arkansas on Friday, September 06, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I wanted a more powerful lens for more nature photography but didn't want to take out a mortgage or donate a kidney. I can't say much that probably hasn't already been said about this lens. It is not as slow as I thought it would be after reading reviews. Mine does make a little bit of noise....more than my other lenses but it isn't enough to really turn heads or make a difference. The focus is a bit soft after the 200mm range but a good post production sharpening software does the trick for me. A great cost efficient lens for amateurs and semi-professionals. Also, the lens cover provided has some bad words been said about it....honestly, mine has worked fine and I am pretty rough on my equipment. Pros: cost, lightweight, vibration reduction (VR) Cons: none so far...considering the price 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Pros: Great zoom capability, crisp, clear shots. Cons: none Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Great Lens for me Written By NMDesertFlower, New Mexico on Monday, May 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased this lens to use with my Nikon D5200, and it is a very good lens! This is the first time I've ordered from Crutchfield, and I was highly impressed with the entire experience. Got this lens at a GREAT price! It takes very good telephoto shots. I live across from a mountain range, and this lens zooms in like I was standing right at the summit! I love it! Great photo quality, and a quiet, fast motor. I was very happy to find a 55-300 as it covers a great deal of focal length without having to have two different lenses. It is perfect for my needs (telephoto and night photography-it takes great photos of the moon). The only things I am not terribly pleased about is the included lens hood and the autofocus-HOOD-it's not of very good quality (which surprised me) and I don't really like to use it. A UV filter might be the ticket here (58mm) to avoid lens flare. The autofocus mode can be a little slow especially if using the lens for night photography or action photos. I missed a few good action shots because the AF was stalling-but thankfully I don't try for many action shots. The manual focus took a little getting used to-it seems slightly awkward to use at first. Maybe it was just me, but I thought I would mention it. Pros: Very reasonably priced, takes great photos throughout the range of focal lengths, quiet Cons: Accompanying lens hood is disappointing-might want to invest in a better one or use a UV filter for this lens. Beware of the slow autofocus in certain situations (night, action) 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

IT WILL USUALLY TAKE A GREAT PHOTO. IF YOU WANT A GREAT ZOOM LENS, YOU WILL REALLY ENJOY THE PHOTOS THAT YOU GET.

Yes | No 4 out of 5 Great Lens Written By Cigar Man, Boynton Beach, Fl. on Wednesday, July 27, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Lens takes sharp, beautiful pictures. There is little, if any, fall off at the edges at any focal length. The AF motor works silently. The only issue I have with this lens is the lens hood that is supplied with it. It is the snap on type, and is flimsy, to say the least. It fell apart and into 4 pieces after only 3 uses. When I contacted Nikon, there "customer service" response was that "I must have abused it". On Nikon's site there are at least 3 other people with the same problem. If you buy this lens, be prepared to buy an after market lens hood. 38 out of 41 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Sell-Side Considerations for Middle-Market Companies
An owner of a private, mid-market company who is contemplating its sale should execute the process with forethought and precision: Sell for the right reason, have an understanding of value, and be prepared to address a host of financial, operational, technology, and human resource issues during the transaction.
The process can be daunting, especially because achieving goals in running a company – whether it is a longtime family business or an up-and-coming entrepreneurial firm – doesn't necessarily translate into achieving those goals when selling it.
This article explores the issues and challenges company owners face leading up to and during the sale process, among them:
- Determining the preferred time to pursue a transaction
- Identifying and vetting interested buyers
- Deciding whether to pursue one-to-one negotiation or a broad auction process
- Managing post-transaction issues such as employee retention and disparate compensation strategies.
Because mid-market company owners often lack experience in M&A, the article suggests that they enlist a team of independent, experienced advisors – investment bankers, attorneys, M&A accounting/forensics professionals, tax and human resource professionals, and asset managers – to provide support before, during, and after the sale.
The article also identifies leading practices that can help a seller prepare for and execute a transaction that achieves their goals for deal value.

Je T'aime: Art Deco Diamond Gold Ring
Octagons within octagons of 18k white gold set off an old European cut diamond of an estimated .07 carats to its best advantage and create the illusion of a stone much larger than its actual weight. The open and pierced mount is emblazoned with four accent designs with a floral motif. A most delightful way to say je t'aime.
Measurements: 5/16 of an inch (0.7 cm) in width north to south on the finger and rises 3/16 of an inch (0.4 cm) in height off the finger (0.4 cm). Weight of 1.5 grams (1.0 dwt).
Ring Size: US 7 (UK N 1/2; Euro 17.25; 54.5 mm; Japan 14) and can be easily sized. Ring sizing information.
Hallmarks: 18k
Condition: Excellent.
Date & Origin: Circa 1930 and is American in origin.
Note: All diamond weights are approximate as the stones have not been removed in order to preserve the integrity of the setting.

I've got an older Toxonics Model 5000 with a 9 inch extenion bar, complete with a 1.5" HHA modified scope. the scope has an Extreme Fire up pin with 5 feet of .10 fiber optic. Have over $150 invested ( got it used ) in the sight and scope, I'll let it go for $100, you pay the shipping. It is NOT assembled in this photo.
In order to get it into the smallest USPS Flat Rate Priority box, I had to disassemble the extention bar, the following photos show how it re-assembles, first attach the T piece to the extention, with the cap screws that are taped into place in the T piece.
Next fasten the extentention T to the back side of the Elevation block. Shown here with out the extention attached.
The scope body mounts with the knurled knob towards the Toxonics label side onto the sectioned brass plate B. The large silver knob A on the front of the sight block locks the sight in place, loosen a bit to move with top or bottom silver knurled knobs, loosen several turns and you can make large movements.

CHAPEL PORTH, ENGLAND - SEPTEMBER 08: Belly boarders catch a wave as they take part in the first heat of the annual World Belly Boarding Championships at Chapel Porth on September 8 2013 in Cornwall, England. Over a hundred surfers of all ages and all on traditional wooden belly boards, gathered for the annual charity event organised for the National Trust and the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI). The event was started in 2002 as a celebration of how surfing began in Britain more than a century ago and because, since the 1920s, Cornwall has become the focus for surfing in the UK. Originally surfers used the wooden 'belly boards' on which they laid down and it was only later that they started standing up, with Cornwall having the first visual evidence of that, in 1929.

The BMC Racing Team's line-up for the UCI world team time trial championship was unveiled Thursday, culminating several months of evaluation of riders and specific preparation for Sunday's race.
Three Return From 2012 Squad
The six riders who will line up for the 57.2-kilometer race against the clock are Steve Cummings, Daniel Oss, Taylor Phinney, Manuel Quinziato, Michael Schär and Tejay van Garderen. "This is a team that we will be proud of, regardless of results," BMC Racing Team President/General Manager Jim Ochowicz said. "However, we are pretty confident everyone has been properly prepared for the race. This is a high priority for the team and one that we have thought about since getting second last year." Three riders – Phinney, Quinziato and van Garderen – return from that squad that came up three seconds short of the winning time by Omega Pharma-Quick Step. BMC Racing Team Assistant Director Max Sciandri said the selection process was difficult. "It becomes a numbers issue, there is a personal component to it, and even a friendship component," Sciandri said. "In the end, making that final selection is like cutting off a little piece of the team and it really hurts. But decisions had to be made." Sciandri said he and Performance Team Advisor Bobby Julich even rode the course this week to get a final feel for what was needed in terms of personnel. "There's no hiding," Sciandri said. "Speed is going to be a key factor."

Over the past couple years, CHRISJLANGE.com has been the online presence of Chris Lange (me). On this site, you will find a sampling of my artwork, including hand-drawn sketches, photographs, and collages.
If you want to know a little bit about me, I will tell you this much: I am a twenty something male originally from St. Louis, Missouri. Growing up, my greatest joys came from baseball, video games, drawing, and food.
I now reside in the Washington, DC area with my lovely wife, and my interests really haven't changed all that much. I end up wearing fancy clothes a lot more now, but that doesn't mean I don't still like ninja turtles. I am also lucky enough to work in the software industry, so I still get to wear tennis shoes a lot (I am a product manager for a company that makes software for media companies).
If you want to know more about me, I suppose that's what the contact button in the bottom right of this page is for.
Thanks for visiting my site.

Rated 5 out of 5�by ramp great value excellent product for the price! very sturdy and light January 6, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by rick147 Good for the price It's a good unit and very easy to assemble. For the price i can't complain December 28, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by MONKA rowing machine Very pleased not only with the rowing machine, which was very easy to assemble, had great easy to follow instructions, gives an excellent work out and it doesn't take up allot of room. The service Dicks sporting goods provided was EXCELLENT ! I was suppose to receive the product after the 11 th, I received it on the 10 th December 18, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5�by Soldier1483 Horrible range of motion This is not what I expected. Granted it was very easy to put together and it is quiet, there is very poor range of motion. Your feet are very low to the ground and your legs are almost extended by the time you pull the bar a third of the way. I do not recommend this to anyone. December 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Tim Easy to assemble and use This rower was really easy to assemble and is very easy to use. I would recommend it to any of my friends. February 13, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5�by tmansbamaw Can't recommend this For the price, we thought this would suffice for a 11 yr old, 90 lb boy. We received it on a Friday afternoon but by Friday night, after our grandson used it a couple of times, it was broken. The pull cord (for lack of better words) broke because the part that holds it up toward the handle was plastic & the cord literally cut through it. I wanted to return it & get our money back but my husband managed to figure out a way to make it work again (after buying new cord). But I can't recommend anyone to buy this and the 2 stars I gave it are generous... Advice to the makers: get rid of the plastic parts. February 8, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Will Excellent piece of equipment for the price. This product was very easy to put together. It is lightweight and seems very durable. I have used this product every other day for the last two weeks and it is holding up well. I get a great workout. It is easy to put away when I'm done. I would recommend buying this product. It is well worth the cost. January 22, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by Dick's Shopper Rarely Decent Rower This little rower is quiet and provides good resistance. It is light and easy to move from one location to the next. Assembly was relatively simple and took about 20 minutes. So far I've put about 4K reps on it and the only problem is a squeak from time to time in the pulley mechanism. I don't anticipate this machine lasting forever but for the price it is a good value. I was pleased that the rower feels solid while using it without the normal shakes and rattles that I have experienced with other home equipment. Overall, this is a good machine to add to your home fitness routine. January 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Ohio good product I did alot of research in selecting a rower & this was a good purchase. It is lightweight and was easy to set up. My 7 yr old likes to use it as well & can easily reset the tension adjustment. Foot pads are great & your feet don't slip out.Seat glides smooth. I do wish it had tension control in the seat. The only tension is in the rope when pulling the bars. Not sure if this was better than getting an eliptical but went with the rower due to space & tucks away in the corner without being seen. I think this was the best buy for the price. December 30, 2012

The Scotts stabilizer is the original and still the best stabilizer on the market. With it's high and low speed valving , adjustable sweep settings, no damping back to center, and 15 clicks of adjustment; How can you go wrong?
We offer this kit for applications using the OEM triple clamp and with the bar mounts in the negative position. In many cases we are able to accommodate some aftermarket triple clamps and or bar mounts especially BRP and Scotts. If your set up is not OEM please contact us so we can get you the proper setup.SPECIAL NOTES:
When mounting a stabilizer on certain OEM applications you may need to bend the crossbar, reverse mount stabilizer or purchase new bars to provide clearance for the stabilizer. Some applications may require slight filing on the frame and or triple clamp or the use of special rubber bar mount bushings for proper tower fitment. In order to determine the proper bar clamp for non OEM applications we will need you to take some measurements from your exiting setup. Providing this information will help insure you get the right parts for your machine. Download our handlebar clamp measuring diagram from our Bar Clamp Info. Page for more information.

WREN MESSENGER is rated out of 5 by 1.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Molly from Just what I was looking for These features make me a super happy cyclist :) great color, green-peach pink contrast great material, water resistance outside and super comfy lining shoulder strap, this is my favorite part! I made my "buy" decision mostly because of this. huge zipper trip, super cute. Only thing I'm not 100% happy, I hope it could be slightly bigger in size, so I could squeeze my jacket and lunch in every morning.
