Definitely our favourite weekend of the year is the Virgin Active London Triathlon. A chance for the whole team to get together (apart from Sam who was off racing Ironman Switzerland), do a bit of racing and to spend some quality time with several of our sponsors.
As always the team mixed some serious racing with a lot of smiles and managed to come away with first and second place in both the men's and women's Olympic Plus races thanks to Richard Hobson, Matt Molloy, Catherine Faux and Alison Rowatt as well as a win for Charlie Pennington in the sprint category.
In the months before the event we had signed up several new sponsors and the team spent a lot of time at the Skechers Performance Division stand at the expo discussing the merits of their various shoe models which the team are testing throughout 2013.
The team also helped out on both days at the Virgin Active stand, we certainly have been made to feel a part of their family over the past three years and love to get involved and to help people #getgoing by joining their gyms around the country.
Here is a gallery of images from the weekend, thanks so much to Virgin Active for making it happen and for supporting grass roots triathlon in the way that they do.

Well, I actually had a totally different post planned for today. But, with the recent events as they are, I wanted to make some remarks.
I've kept this blog very non-political, only really expressing my opinions if someone asked. And, I'm not interested in making this post about my opinion, either.
However, this has been possibly one of the most divisive, controversial elections in recent history. I felt I'd be somewhat remiss to not at least say a few words. :)… Read More »

Repeatable Weighing for Better Automotive Quality Control
METTER TOLEDO is pleased to announce that results from real world client installations are in, and the IND780 weigh terminal performs with the reliability METTLER TOLEDO is known for in tough automotive quality-control testing environments.
The IND780 terminal is a perfect match for the automotive industry, where weight is used to check compliance of the car, or of individual components during assembly. With simple connectivity for multiple sensor technologies, IND780 can connect to up to four weighing platforms. This allows the IND780 to produce, accurate, traceable quality control results in several applications along a production line simultaneously.
Smart Data Management
Depending on floor scale configuration, the IND780's flexible weigh system can be programmed to measure variables such as individual wheel weight and total vehicle weight simultaneously. An easy to read color display means the automotive assembly user sees every desired value and weight combination at a glance. This simplifies the number of weigh steps required, reducing processing time and increasing productivity. Furthermore, the terminal offers quick-switch soft keys that allow simple export of weigh results in either kilos or pounds. A front-display zero soft key resets all system scales in one stroke.
Configurable softkeys permit single key-press recall and many other important features and functions as well. Target and tolerance records for overunder-checkweighing can be stored, saving time and reducing error risk. The terminal also has built in TraxEMT predictive diagnostics software so scale maintenance can be planned in advance—instead of allowing errors to pass or causing extensive and expensive downtime.
With the optional TaskExpert programming tool, IND780 can calculate an even greater number of individual weigh variables in an instant. Quality control experts can develop custom applications to ensure the quick capture of more detailed assembly variables, such as individual axle weights.
Performance-Driven Scales
In a common vehicle-weigh configuration, the IND780 is connected to four METTLER TOLEDO Vertex 2158 floor scales. The Vertex 2158 features a low, user-friendly profile that minimizes operator effort when loading and unloading. Optional ramps make the scale drive-up, drive off and provide accessibility from all sides, enhancing the scale's versatility.
Vertex 2158's unique, patented METTLER TOLEDO rocker pin suspension makes the scales ideal for automotive manufacturers. It allows the weighing platform to move laterally, ensuring optimum force transmission to the load cell. This prevents the load cell damage that can occur when loads are processed quickly—such as drive-on, drive-off weighing—which can cause premature platform failure and poor results. Essentially, the design ensures distortions, uneven floor conditions and lateral shearing forces are absorbed for outstanding accuracy.
Overall, the Vertex 2158-IND780 combination creates a robust, durable weighing system that automotive manufacturers can depend on for years of reliable results.

White Paper Discusses Maintaining Sustainable Quality with Weighing
In food production, accurate weighing can greatly impact the overall quality and integrity of the product, as well as enhancing a business's productivity and competitiveness. When a food manufacturer's weighing equipment is not verified, it risks inaccurate weighing and inadequate process quality, safety and compliance. In a new white paper, "GWP - The Global Weighing Standard for the Food Industry," the experts at METTLER TOLEDO have outlined how the global

Orticanoodles is the pseudonym for two Italian artists, a very active and tight-knit duo, composed of Wally and Alita. Wally was born in Carrara, where he attended Art School and in 1996 he moved to Milan to attend the course in Advertising Art Direction at European Institute of Design. In Milan, he met Alita. Both in love of the stencil technique, they began to create drawings and handmade posters, quickly making themselves known in the Street art world.
In 2004, they started their first illegal actions in the street, stickering and pasting up posters. In their laboratory, situated in the Ortica district in Milan, Orticanoodles logos took shape. With the subversive power of Zibe, Orticanoodles started a blazing activity in the streets, soon evolving into a real urban guerrilla campaign. The image of the brand Orticanoodles has made its appearance in the streets of main European cities. Currently, the duo is in production, creating a series of portraits. Often, the choice of subject for their work, is made as a form of social criticism and at other times the choice was simply driven by inspiration and respect towards the same. The most recent works, with the new concept Stencil on Stencil, are a collection of portraits of famous leaders, celebrities and provocative artists, combined with intricate matrices of finely cut stencil which contain a written message. The concept is to cancel the physical work, the pictures are above the words, thus creating a mutual relationship between the subject and his message.
To date the duo has painted several stencils autonomously, as a form of free expression on the streets of many cities, and they also participated in important international events and festivals in addition to exhibiting works in museums and private exhibition spaces, both domestic and foreign.

Dating script service
Sure, it is difficult to compete with the marketing budgets of behemoths such as Match.com; however there is still a large market for unique dating websites that focus on something specific.For example, in the UK there are always adverts for uniform dating websites.Their small business plan retails at .95 per month and offers additional features such as webcam chat and matchmaking.To access all features, you need to subscribe to their corporate plan at .95 per month.Still, I got an inside view of how profitable the niche can be.
Banner and Google Adsense advertising can also be integrated into the design.
Stepping up to the business plan at 9.95 will also add classifieds and music support.
All licenses include free installation, free support, and free updates.

We realized a few weeks ago, when Walmart contacted us directly that having an option to use our contacts and existing factory relationships to offer a "front of the line--fast pass" that many of our other customers could benefit as well. As I've told companies over and over, this is an "option" for those that are stuck, behind, have no alcohol pumps or 50ml bottles or anything pertaining to hand sanitizer. Go To Front of the Line--Click Here
The pandemic caught many people off guard and they are being forces to stop all production or pay exorbitant rates for their hand sanitizer suppliers. We believe this option helps everyone. The pricing is higher than normal but NOT excessive and it gives our clients the option to run their packaging in a matter of days...not months.
Companies are using us to drop in a "fill in pump order" or a quick molded 50ml with clear lid to help a retailer or relief agency. The point is, it is an option that no one else is offering, and we are honored and proud to do so.
What Happens On May 1st?
On May 1st many US states are planning to open for business. What concerns me and anyone else in the hand sanitizer business is this...if you think demand is bad now (no one is working on site) wait until people go back to work and numbers spike! Plus, May 1st to May 5th is a Chinese holiday...where orders will back up, production will stop, and further demand on an already taxed Supply Chain will really push the limits. Use Fast Pass Option--Click Here
Get In Line--Any Line--But Get In Line
Look, if you need alcohol compliant pumps or gallon containers or 50ml bottles or anything else pertaining to the hand sanitizer business, Place An Order! Companies are hoping that some friend of a friend is going to come through for them and they will learn the hard way. 2 weeks ago the lead time for alcohol compliant 38-400 pumps was 60+ days. Now, 2 weeks later it is past 90 days and climbing. If you plan to be in this business and forecast that you'll need supplies at some point...get your orders placed and place a deposit to get in the production line. Nothing is going to happen until you put Cash Down. Sorry to be so blunt, but hypothetical situations are over.
Use The Fast Pass--
Get an order in and we can then push and pull your project to fruition. Without an order, we've got nothing to push. The Fast Pass--Use It Now
Please review information and let us know how we can help. There is light at the end of the tunnel and we can help you get there...faster! Contact Us Directly 216-373-1005

Archive for the 'cognitive apprenticeship' Category
It has been a while since I posted, which can only suggest that I've been busy elsewhere. Indeed I have been pre-occupied, implementing and evaluating the first cycle of design-based research involving the machinima initiative. But I should have been formatively sharing the research journey here… no excuses in the second cycle of implementation 🙂
This project is funded by CQUni Learning and Teaching Grants in which the aim is to:
investigate ways in which a particular model of learning, namely cognitive apprenticeship may be embedded in traditional pedagogical approaches such as lectures and tutorials. The key objectives of the study are threefold: identify learning and teaching strategies based on the principles of cognitive apprenticeship; develop teaching and learning resources that support this model of learning within the accounting education context; and evaluate the impact of this pedagogical approach with a group of students in an auditing course. An increased value placed on teaching and quality of student learning outcomes is the core aim of the research.
We have disseminated preliminary findings at a couple of internal forums at CQUni available here: Presentation 1 – Cognitive Apprenticeship in Accounting Education, Presentation 2 – Second Life Machinimas.
A refereed paper will also be published at the proceedings of ascilite Melbourne 2008 Conference, titled Bringing 'second life' to a tough undergraduate course: Cognitive apprenticeship through machinimas.
Why cognitive apprenticeship: The analysis phase of the auditing course redesign
Posted January 30, 2008on:
The traditional approaches to the learning and teaching of courses within the accounting discipline have long been criticized as lacking rigours to adequately prepare graduates for the profession (Accounting Education Change Commission, 1991; Albrech & Sach, 2001; Carr & Mathews, 2002). Because of the limitations of approaches commonly found in traditional lectures and tutorials many graduate accountants cannot "integrate rule based knowledge with real world problems" (Catanach, Croll & Grinaker, 2000, p. 583) and, as Sundem (1994, p.39) points out, "the average graduate accumulates a storehouse of knowledge, but has difficulty applying it to real situations". According to Brown, Collins and Duguid (1989), this untenable situation is a product of a didactic education system which assumes a separation between knowing (learning – "know what") and doing (use – "know how").Such problems resonate with issues we have identified in the auditing course. Feedback from students' course evaluation for instance describes some underlying course design problems, an example of which is shown below verbatim:
"If our school provide some career is better, it helpful to us. In addition, you can employ some experience auditor to come to discuss in real world. Sometime, we just got theory. Actually, we do not [in] reality know all things in real world. If you employ them, i believe it is helpful to us to understand more. And then we prepare some material and obtain more knowledge to help us in our future job."
Deeper analysis of the whole course confirmed that one of the key pedagogic design problems was the lack of opportunities for students to apply knowledge and skills in professional problem solving situations which, given such opportunities, should raise students' competency level. Consequently, we have also identified that our goal for the course redesign is to enable students to behave and think like professional auditors by allowing them to collaborate and identify problems through observation, have access to authentic business artifacts, and make decisions through evidence-based conclusions. If we were to "enculturate" students to think and act like auditors, the culture of the accounting profession and, in particular, auditing practice must be central to this redesign.
We have found a direct alignment between our design problem and the seminal work of Collins, Brown and Newman (1989) on cognitive apprenticeship. The idea behind cognitive apprenticeship approaches is that it attempts to enculturate students into authentic practices through activity and social interaction, similar to craft apprenticeship. The central tenet is to promote learning within the nexus of activity, tool and culture in which students are
"exposed to the use of a domain's conceptual tools in authentic activity — to teachers acting as practitioners and using these tools in wrestling with problems of the world. Such activity can tease out the way a mathematician or historian looks at the world and solves emergent problems. The process may appear informal, but it is nonetheless full-blooded, authentic activity that can be deeply informative — in a way that textbook examples and declarative explanations are not" (Brown, Collins & Duguid, 1989).
Guided by the principles of cognitive apprenticeship, the first phase of the course redesign for the auditing course is underway and the necessary approval process for this redesign has taken place, which will be implemented in Term 1 2008.

Jimmie Keith Stewart, Petitioner-appellant, v. Stephen T. Smith, Warden, Respondent-appellee, 959 F.2d 236 (6th Cir. 1992)Annotate this Case
Before NATHANIEL R. JONES, RALPH B. GUY, Jr. and BATCHELDER, Circuit Judges.
Jimmie Keith Stewart, a Kentucky state prisoner, requests the appointment of counsel on appeal from the dismissal of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. This case has been referred to a panel of the court pursuant to Rule 9(a), Rules of the Sixth Circuit. Upon examination, this panel unanimously agrees that oral argument is not needed. Fed. R. App. P. 34(a).
Stewart entered a guilty plea to charges of first degree burglary, first degree unlawful imprisonment, two counts of first degree sodomy, and first degree rape. He received a sentence of sixty years imprisonment. In this habeas petition, he attacked the constitutionality of Ky.Rev.Stat. § 439.3401, which requires that he serve one half of his sentence before becoming eligible for parole. He also raised claims regarding the voluntariness of his plea, alleged ineffective assistance of counsel, the denial of post-conviction relief, and the voluntariness of his confession. Stewart has not addressed any of the latter claims in his brief on appeal; they are therefore considered abandoned and will not be reviewed. See McMurphy v. City of Flushing, 802 F.2d 191, 198-99 (6th Cir. 1986).
Upon consideration, it is concluded that the arguments regarding the constitutionality of the Kentucky violent offender statute are meritless. Accordingly, the request for counsel is denied, and the district court's judgment dismissing this petition is affirmed. Rule 9(b) (3), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.

|[DMS Seminar] Dr. Suvrajit Bhattacharjee (Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata) -- Quantum Groups
|Wednesday, Feb 19, 2020
|11 a.m. - noon
|108, A P C Ray
|Quantum groups were unleashed to the world by Drinfeld in his 1986-ICM address. They are represented by Hopf algebras. Initially developed by Drinfeld with applications to physics in mind, quantum groups interacted with a number of other interesting objects. In this talk, we shall try to convey some of the original motivations for introducing quantum groups. No background will be assumed. We shall start from the very basic, by introducing what a Hopf algebra is, and go as far as providing systematic solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. Time permitting, we shall try to look at them from an analytic perspective and introduce what are called Compact quantum groups a la Woronowicz.

Hey there, being new to Rift I started out with a warrior which I've been playing for a bout a month now (lvl 32) and so far enjoyed what the paragon and paladin builds have to offer (since till now I've only had to either tank or dps in groups).
However I had to switch servers and therefore start a new character now. Was going to go warrior again but then I got to thinking that maybe there's a better calling for me.
I like to be in the thick of battle and enjoy mele fighting much more than casting from range. Both tanking and dpsing are fun imo. I've got little to no experience (or interest) with healers, mages or archers in mmos... though recently I've found myself intrigued by the support roles in RIft so I will probably want to play that too from time to time.
I am aware that late game (especially in raiding) I'll have to switch my roles quite a bit and that's perfectly fine with me. So having in mind all the preferences I listed above which calling would you say fits me the most? (which one excels at what I want to do and as such would be asked to by my group more often than not)

Studying abroad can be one of the most exciting experiences of your life. It's the time to immerse yourself in all the educational and cultural experiences you can find, and try to have as much fun as possible! But many of the incredible activities you want to do on your year abroad will cost money, and being short on cash is a typical problem for students wherever you are! Right from booking the tickets to managing the daily expenses you need money almost everyday.
So what can you do to save money while studying abroad? We've put together 7 top tips which will go a long way to helping you out!
Do your research:
Before you embark on your year abroad, make sure you do all the research you can. Make sure to do the year as economical as possible. If you haven't yet decided on a university, you should look at the cost of living in different locations, look for budget-friendly options in the cities where prices tend to be higher. Accommodation is a significant expense you do as a student. It is vital for you to find the best deal while booking a house to live for the next few years.
Get a part-time job:
Part-time jobs may sound tricky to come by if you are a student abroad, but it is also the way to earn money and gain some prior work experience which will be beneficial for you in future. The universities also offer part-time job and internship opportunities to the students. Inquire at your university, about the part-time job and internship opportunities and they might be able to help you out. Having a job while studying is the perfect way to earn the extra amount you need to savour your year abroad. Just make sure you have enough time to maintain a balance between your work and academic life!
Learn to cook:
One of the most significant expenses for any student is eating out. It's okay for your bank balance to eat out on special occasions, but if you're eating at cafés and restaurants just because you aren't much of a cook then you need to do something about it! Making your own delicious food from necessary ingredients can save you loads of money when you're in a foreign country, and you can learn about the local cuisine too!
Search for cost effective alternatives:
When you're studying in a foreign country, there's only a limited amount you can take with you when you go abroad. You'll probably have to buy items like crockery and cutlery when you're there, so try and avoid expensive shops and stick to charity shops or thrift stores. You can pick up some bargains, or give a home to some good-quality but unwanted items!
Start a savings pot:
Whether you use an actual pot or a nifty smartphone app that rounds up your spending, starting a savings pot in a simple way to save your money will go the extra mile. Putting away small amounts of money will gradually help you to save for something big - which could end up being one of your top experiences during the year!
Get an international money account:
Many banks charge high fees for using the card and accessing money while you're abroad. This is an unnecessary and unexpected expense for students - especially as fees cahrged for the transaction are often hidden! Luckily, there are plenty of options for international mobile money accounts that simplify your money management while you're studying abroad. These accounts let you control your finances through your smartphone, and have no additional charges involved while making a transaction!
Paysend provides international money solutions for students abroad, helping them to manage their money with ease while they're in another country.
Paysend Global Account is an international money account that lets students hold, send and spend their money with a mobile app and international Paysend Mastercard. Students can hold multiple currencies in their account and link their card to one to spend wherever in the world that Mastercard is accepted.
Paysend Global Transfers is an online money transfer platform that lets users send money to over 80 countries worldwide. So if students want to receive money from friends or family back in their home country, they can do so quickly and cheaply - it costs just £1 or €1.5 (or equivalent amount) to send money on the Paysend platform. This means you receive more of the money sent to be used on your student experience!

Antoni Van Leeuwenhoek, a quiet linen draper in Delft, has discovered a new world: the world of the little animals, or animalcules, that he sees through his simple microscopes. These tiny creatures are everywhere, even inside us. But who will believe him? Not his wife, not his neighbors, not his fellow merchants — only his friend Reinier De Graaf, a medical doctor. Then he meets an itinerant goose girl at the market who lives surrounded by tiny, invisible voices. Are these the animalcules also? Leeuwenhoek and the girl form a curious alliance, and gradually the lives of the little animals infiltrate everything around them: Leeuwenhoek's cloth business, the art of his friend Johannes Vermeer, the nascent sex trade, and people's religious certainties. But Leeuwenhoek also needs to cement his reputation as a natural philosopher, and for that he needs the Royal Society of London—a daunting challenge, indeed, for a Dutch draper who can't communicate in Latin.

The Goose Girl
It is Pentecost. Pinksteren. Tomorrow a girl crowned with flowers will parade across the square in front of the Nieuwe Kerk, the bride of spring, followed by a heckling crowd of off-work apprentices. Couples will start courting. Pastors will give thanks for the gift of tongues.
Today geese and their babble occupy the square. Antoni Van Leeuwenhoek is at the market, bargaining. He is a man of middle height, middling complexion, and sober gray eyes, just beginning to get stout, with an itchy dark wig slightly askew. An ordinary man, though this is not his ordinary occupation. He ought to be opening his draper's shop this minute. The housemaid ought to be doing the shopping. But Leeuwenhoek is a most particular man. He prefers to do things himself. So here he is, choosing geese for quills. It is a hateful task, but he is desperate. He has arrived early to beat the tide of arrow- fledgers, down-pullers, scribes, and gluttons. His task outranks all these, did they but know it. Natural philosophy!
The smell of the tarred feet of the huge flock on the air is overpowering. Drovers' dogs guard the laneways. The sounds of hissing and honking are deafening. Some of the green geese are strung on lines, string protruding from the asshole of one into the throat of the next. Herders have fed them fat pork that they will eat and re-eat. Geese are revolting. The drovers are not much better. This is idiots' work. Many are drunk, or slack-faced, or crazy. Getting enough sense out of them to make a deal is a chore. It is the same thing every year.
Suddenly through the gaggle of halfwits and yelling birds the blonde head of a child appears, a girl leading a troop of a dozen geese in a perfect line, like soldiers on parade. She is not much bigger than they are and has no dog, nor even a staff. Her geese are celestially white and twice as big as the others, like harvest birds. They are silent. Their flat feet are bare, except for the first one, which appears to be wearing little red leather boots. They pace past like visiting noblemen. Leeuwenhoek is stunned. Children rarely take animals on the roads, and certainly not girls. It is not like herding them at home. A pasture is one thing, the open road quite another. What can her parents, or her employers, possibly be thinking? A wash of quietness spreads out from the girl and her geese as they cut diagonally through the square, the raucous birds calming, the drovers and householders turning to watch in amazement. He thinks feverishly, Look at the size of them! Think of the feathers! A dozen birds that size, at this season — seventy-two premium quills. Enough for a year, even with all the writing he does. He begins jostling through the crowd in her wake, as the others are still gaping, determined to reach her before some housewife or arbalester's apprentice gets there first. He will buy the lot.
Toiling across the square, trying to avoid bites from enraged geese, he meets precisely the person he had hoped would not be here. Johannes. Now, struggling through the throng, he must struggle with his conscience as well. The man is improvident, infuriating, and disorderly, but he is a great painter. He is a friend. He is even a client, though this is not the moment at which to wonder whether the camera will ever be paid for. He swats away the head of an importuning goose.
"Vermeer!" he shouts over the head of a cross-eyed drover, "go home! You cannot afford those prize geese! I am buying them!" One of the painter's many off-putting habits is haggling for things he cannot buy.
"Antoni!" returns the painter, a smallish dark man, likewise making his way across the square, although much more slowly, ceremoniously standing aside for passing drovers, stopping to let the more determined geese go by. He is not making much headway, and Leeuwenhoek passes him by like a meteor, cutting a swathe through the milling necks. He looks back to see Vermeer standing, doffing his cap, whether to a goose or a person he cannot see, a dark blot in the midst of a rippling, cacophonous, white canvas.
By the time the harried artist has made his way across the square, Leeuwenhoek has bought the geese. At least, he thinks he has. He accomplished this by glaring down several affronted women already waiting there, then trying vainly to speak to the goose girl over the din — could she be deaf? — before spinning her around by the shoulder and thrusting all the money he has into her hands. She is still staring at him, grimy and confused, seemingly unable to speak, as Vermeer straggles out of the crowd.
"Johannes, I have bought them," he says warningly, before the painter can speak. He looks at the girl for some sign of assent. She appears uncomprehending. Leeuwenhoek makes a gesture toward the geese, gathering them to himself, and then pats her tiny, dirty hands holding the money. It is a reasonable sum for twelve geese in prime condition, though perhaps not enough for her extraordinary birds. She finally appears to understand what has happened, looking at the coins for the first time. She is suddenly delighted and does a little, wriggling dance. Leeuwenhoek nods firmly, as though they have just shaken hands on the deal. The wonderful geese are his.
Vermeer sighs. "Will you at least sell me a few quills?" he asks. "I need new pencils in the worst way."
Leeuwenhoek looks at him severely, trying to muster up his better judgment. It eludes him. "Fine, fine! Of course!" he replies.
Vermeer, looking hopeful, continues, "And some of those fine metal clamps you made for the ends? To hold the brush hairs?"
"Yes," he says, shortly.
He turns back to the goose girl. He has no idea how to part her from her geese, still strangely silent and attentive, like a group of nuns. He has no idea how to herd geese. He asks the girl, carefully looking into her face, speaking slowly, Can you bring them to my house? She nods solemnly. Leeuwenhoek turns abruptly, relieved, and begins to walk away, toward home. The girl follows him, silently. The geese follow her, silently, in a perfect line. He feels like a bishop. Vermeer wanders along beside them, looking at the goose girl.
What marvelous hair you have, he says to her after a while, conversationally. The girl's hair is filthy and partially covered with a kerchief, but it is indeed splendid and copious. She looks over at him and smiles brightly.
"Have you ever cut it?" he continues.
She shakes her head.
She shakes her head once more.
"Good God," Vermeer mutters to himself, squinting at her. Leeuwenhoek glances back at him speculatively. "Virgin hair, Antoni! Look at it! Perfect! Better than sable!"
"Johannes, you have a house full of children with hair for paintbrushes," says Leeuwenhoek.
"They are all born bald and their mother has coarse hair! It's not my fault!" replies the painter in piteous tones. Leeuwenhoek laughs. The girl ignores their conversation, marching straight ahead.
Leeuwenhoek's house is close by, near the fish market. The geese follow the girl obediently into the rear courtyard. There is no gate, as he keeps no other fowl or domestic animals, except cats. He is a townsman. He has no use for country nuisances. The addition of twelve live geese is going to be a bit of a surprise for his wife. Soon enough, though, they will all be hanging somewhere and he will be preparing quills. The larder is Barbara's domain. Meanwhile, he will just have to block the entrance with something so they do not escape. He looks around for some suitable object. The girl stands still in the middle of his courtyard, surrounded by flowerpots, the geese standing around her in a precise semi-circle, like a choir waiting for its cue.
"You appear to have bought her, too," says Vermeer bemusedly, pausing briefly at the entrance. "Mind you keep her well. That hair is priceless." He continues on his way.
Leeuwenhoek stands uncertainly. He shuffles his feet. The goose girl stands among her adoring subjects with her back to him. He walks around to face her, behind the ring of geese. The light is behind her, so her small face is shadowed, while the golden ends of her heavy hair under the kerchief appear molten. A light, clear, toneless voice says: "Do not worry. They will not leave. I am here."
Leeuwenhoek is shocked, as if he had never heard anyone speak before. It is as if one of the geese had spoken. The goose with the red boots looks at him inquiringly. The girl is still.
"Aha, you do, ah, speak," he says, stumbling over his words, which suddenly seem remarkable coming out of his mouth.
"Yes," she says.
"Where did you come from?" he asks. "It can't have been far. Their feet are bare, and none are lame."
"It was far. We came slowly. And the tar does no good.
It makes their feet rot."
"Why is this one wearing boots? Who made them?"
"I made them," she says. "He has tender feet."
"Where did you get the leather?"
"I traded a goose for it, in Kampen. She did not like me."
"But these ones do?"
"They will stay in the yard and not run away?"
"Yes, if I tell them."
"Tell them, then," Leeuwenhoek says and watches her curiously. The girl says nothing, to him or the geese, but makes a brief shrugging gesture, a dismissal, a bit like casting seed. The geese, receiving their congé, disperse and begin to wander, nibbling at the flowers in the pots. The girl stands unmoving like a wound-down clockwork.
"Can you go home now? Will they stay?"
"Home?" asks the girl, as if repeating a foreign word.
She is silent a moment. "Yes, they will stay. Why do you want so many geese?"
"I need pens," says Leeuwenhoek. The girl looks blank.
"Quills. For writing. The long wing feathers."
"Oh!" she replies, seeming relieved, "Then you won't need to kill them."
"I won't?" he says, confused.
"Oh no," says the girl, confidently. "I can pluck them. Two times a year, sometimes three, if you feed them well."
"Truly?" he asks, doubtfully. "Do the feathers grow back so fast? At the same quality?"
"They will," the girl assures him. "The birds will scream and bleed, but I will sing to them and they will forget."
Leeuwenhoek is not keen to become a goose farmer. He has quite enough jobs already, and not all of them make money, as his wife is constantly reminding him. He looks at the enormous, eerily white birds now busy destroying his flowers. One beats the air with perfect, powerful wings, the flight feathers spread out like fingers. He looks at the goose girl.
"What is your name?" he asks finally, as if conceding defeat.
"I do not know," says the girl. "Why do I need one? I can tell you their names, if you like. That is Redboots, and that one is Pansy, that one is Scratch ..."
Having been introduced to all the geese in turn, and still uncertain what to do about the girl, Leeuwenhoek goes inside. He sits down at the table in the great room of his house and stares anxiously at the small vase of cuckoo flowers that sits in its own reflection on the highly polished surface. He blew the glass himself and is proud of it, although he has no intention of telling anyone he is a glassblower. It is a professional secret. The vase sits here in plain view all the time, a private joke. Most townspeople of Delft think he is a solid citizen, a draper, a good man of business; a very few interested in such things know him as a lens-grinder, a maker of fine optical instruments. Nothing so frivolous as a glassblower. Guests coming in to his fine paneled room assume it is a Venetian trinket, one that goes with the paintings on the walls, the display of silver and ceramics on the mantel.
And that is the least of the secrets, he reflects, that this vase holds.
Leeuwenhoek knows that it contains a whole new world, stranger and more populous than the Americas: the world of the animalcule. Inside everything we see, everything we touch, this world opens, vaster than the abyss: there is no need to sail off perilously in ships to find it. He may be the greatest explorer in the Republic, and he has never been further than Maastricht. Not that most of his neighbors in the prosperous merchants' town of Delft will believe it, until this precious world that he has discovered through his microscopes yields up items as valuable as tobacco or potatoes or tulips. He has about as much chance of convincing them about the importance of animalcules as he would have of convincing that poor simple girl outside.
And what is he to do with her? He just set out to buy geese. Geese! Messy, aimless, honking waddlers, yet, perversely, he needs them, or at least their feathers, in order to record the astonishing new world that he is beginning to find, full of lives as strange to us as those of angels.
* * *
Three weeks later Leeuwenhoek knows the names of all of the geese, but not the girl. She is indifferent. He has changed the name of Redboots to Caligula. He is indifferent. The girl is cleaner but still strange and silent.
"She's an odd one," says Barbara. "It's not that I mind keeping her. Now that she's washed, at least. I can't imagine how she's lived so far, poor creature. It's like she's a goose herself. She can tell me nothing about where she came from."
The girl sleeps in the pantry, cares for the geese in the yard, and herds them back and forth at intervals from a pasture he has rented outside of town. He has ordered her, and even pleaded with her, not to keep them over night in the fields, but she pays no attention. She does not understand his fears. She looks at him stolidly, silently, and then does exactly as she pleases. Mostly she brings them back at night, but not always. She claims that they like to graze at dawn, and that the morning dew is good for them.
Barbara has tried a few names for her — Hannah, Bieke, Anna, Grietje — but none of them have stuck. She responds if addressed directly, but that is all.
"The names just slide off her, somehow," says his wife, mystified. "I can't keep track of the one I've just called her. She doesn't care at all. She's just the girl, the goose girl."
"Think of it like a title," Leeuwenhoek suggests.
"She does have a certain majesty," Barbara replies.
"But I'll call her Grietje if the neighbors ask."
"Why would they?"
"People are naturally curious, Antoni," says Barbara, tartly, "about other people. It's only you who are exclusively concerned with bugs."
"Bugs! What? No! They're not bugs, these little animals I see through the microscopes, as I'm always telling you, Barbara —"
"Bugs. Plants. Bits of wood. Scraps of cloth. Dirt. Water droplets."
"Natural philosophy!"
"The crebbemeester has already been to see me about the goose droppings. He knows we've taken in the girl. If she leaves our service he'll alert the orphanage. She's our responsibility now."
"It's very good of you to do this, Barbara," says Leeuwenhoek, humbly. "Geese. Strange children. It's a lot to take on. And all for a few quills. It's just —"
"I know, Antoni. I know. Natural philosophy! If this passion spreads there will be a shortage of quills across the Seven Provinces! You might as well be a scrivener!" She wags her finger at him in mock severity and then continues more seriously, "We seem to have gotten beyond quills, though, haven't we? Now it's about that girl, the poor child."
"We could just slaughter the geese and keep her anyway, as a kitchen maid, I suppose."
"Could we? What would she do? She has no skills in the house. I don't think she's lived in one for years. She can barely talk. If we killed those geese I think she would go mad. Or madder than she is already. They are her family. Her flock."
"She might be a companion for Marieke."
"She shuns Marieke. I think she is afraid of her, afraid of other children."
"So we leave it as it is?"
"Yes," says Barbara. "Of course, it is all quite crazy." She has a good heart.
* * *
Leeuwenhoek is in possession of twelve new quills, the longest wing feathers of Redboots-now-Caligula and the goose called Scratch. They are drying on a reed rack in his study. In his eagerness, he has even dried one over the fire — a fussy business, holding the shaft with clamps and rotating it over the flames like a tiny roast. When he sharpened it, the shaft was so hard it felt like porcelain. He had to whet his knives to trim it properly.
The rest he will point as he goes: it is better that they dry naturally. The birds had screamed horribly, the way women yell in labor, in deep, vibrating, gasping grunts, as the girl pulled out the feathers. He had been watching from the kitchen window. She had laid them across her lap and doubled up their necks under her arm, and, flexing one wing at a time, yanked out the three main feathers on each side. All the time her mouth had been moving in some soundless song. Afterward, they had tumbled off her lap, trembling and tottering, and rejoined the rest of the flock, which had been standing in a frozen silence, clustered against the furthest wall. Soon enough they had all been drifting and browsing together. The girl had brought him the handful of feathers matter-of-factly. Their tips were bloody.(Continues…)
