History and location
Very soon after reaching Fort George at the mouth of the Columbia River on his first inspection trip west of the Rocky Mountains, Governor George Simpson determined to make the Columbia District independent of imported foodstuffs by establishing farms and raising not only grains, vegetables, and fruits, but also cattle, sheep, and hogs. As early as November or December 1824., he could foresee the time when beef, pork, and butter would be among the products in sufficient supply to be exported to Alaska, Hawaii, and other Pacific lands. [1]
The site selected at about that same time for the new Fort Vancouver struck the Governor as being almost ideal for livestock raising. "A Farm to any extent may be made there," he noted in his journal before March of the next year; "the pasture is good and innumerable herds of Swine can fatten so as to be fit for the Knife merely on nutricious [sic] Roots that are found here in any quantity." [2]
The herds at the new depot were started. with livestock moved from Fort George when the latter post was abandoned in the spring of 1825. According to Governor Simpson, these animals consisted of thirty-one head of cattle and seventeen hogs, the heritage of the small herds built up by the Astorians and Nor'Westers, chiefly through imports from California and the Hawaiian Islands. [3] These numbers may not have been entirely accurate, however, because Dr. McLoughlin in later years gave varying figures. In 1837, for instance, he wrote that when he took charge of Fort Vancouver in 1825 there were three bulls, twenty-three cows, five heifers, and nine steers. [4]
Despite occasional flooding of the meadows along the river and despite poisonous roots that for several years decimated the hogs, Fort Vancouver quite fulfilled Governor Simpson's expectations as an excellent location for livestock raising. By the time of his next visit to the Columbia during the winter of 1828-29 he found that there were 153 head of cattle, "independent of calves," about 200 hogs, and 50 goats. In addition, 6,000 pounds of salt pork had been produced for local consumption. [5] But Simpson declared he would not be satisfied until the cattle numbered 600 head and until "our Piggery enables us to cure 10,000 lb of Pork pr Annum." [6]
Chief Factor McLoughlin diligently applied himself to meeting this goal. From the beginning he had determined that no cattle should be killed, except an occasional bull to supply rennet for cheese making. This policy received hearty support from Governor Simpson and was rigidly adhered to, despite occasional grumblings from the employees and the sometimes vehement protests of visiting seamen and ships' captains, until 1836, when forty head were slaughtered. During the spring of 1837 the cattle at Fort Vancouver consisted of 229 cows, 58 bulls, 178 oxen and steers, 61 heifers, and 159 calves. [7]
As early as 1830 McLoughlin had explored the idea of having cattle brought back from California by the trapping parties ranging into that Mexican province. [8] The more he thought about the prospects of the cattle industry in the Oregon Country the better he liked them, but he believed the project would prosper only if independent of the fur trade. Thus in 1832 he proposed that the officers in the Columbia District organize "The Oregon Beef & Tallow Company" to conduct cattle raising on a large scale.
The London directors vetoed this idea, but they accepted the premise, endorsed by Governor Simpson, that the livestock industry could be profitable. They believed the operation should be a Company directed branch of the fur trade, and toward the close of 1834 they sent McLoughlin dollars to the value of L300 to be used for the purchase of cattle but to be spent only as Governor Simpson should direct. They also instructed him to examine lands near Puget Sound and elsewhere north of the Columbia for places suitable for large-scale cattle raising, because they did not wish the new enterprise to be conducted in the Willamette Valley, which, it was feared, would fall to the Americans. Simpson heartily approved the idea, pointing out that cattle were cheap in California and directing McLoughlin to buy 5,000 head and have them driven to the Columbia as soon as an opportunity offered. [9]
But Chief Factor McLoughlin, denied the chance to make a personal profit, lost his enthusiasm for cattle raising. He did not follow the instructions to examine Whidby Island, though he did admit to having explored the area about Fort Nisqually and the head of Puget Sound, where he had found "pasturage for an immense number of cattle." [10] Both he and the directors were diverted from the project by a dispute with the Russian American Company over transit across the coastal strip of southeastern Alaska, but undoubtedly he could have pressed forward had he so desired. In 1837 he half-heartedly instructed Michel Laframboise, the leader of the Southern Party of trappers to California, to bring back 600 head of cattle should he not find a good place to hunt beaver. [11] Seemingly Laframboise found trapping more congenial than driving cows, because if there is a record of his returning with cattle the writer has not yet seen it. McLoughlin did, however, subscribe to a "substantial interest" on behalf of the Company in an expedition by a party of Willamette Valley settlers who went to California and brought back cattle during that same year. [12]
During the next year the captain of the Company's vessel Nereide, in San Francisco Bay to purchase sheep for delivery to Fort Nisqually, negotiated with General M. O. Vallejo with a view to buying cattle to be sent overland to Fort Vancouver. Apparently this action laid the foundation for the purchases that followed in later years. This move seemingly was made after direct orders, dated January 1837, were received from the Governor and Committee instructing McLoughlin to obtain a herd of from 500 to 1,000 young cattle from California "as early as possible" and to establish a new "grazing farm." [13]
While McLoughlin was away on furlough during the greater part of 1838 and 1839, Chief Trader James Douglas, in charge of Fort Vancouver during his absence, seems to have attacked the problem of the livestock with more vigor. Finding that the pastures around the depot were too limited in extent to support the numbers of cattle, sheep, and hogs on hand', he dispersed the cattle into three herds: one at the fort, one on the present Sauvie Island in the Columbia River, and one on the Tualatin Plains in the Willamette Valley. In addition, ninety-five head were sent to the Cowlitz River, where a farm was being started. He urged the London directors to send out blooded rams from England to improve the quality of the flocks. [14]
These preparations came none too soon. On February 6, 1839, the Hudson's Bay Company and the Russian American Company signed the agree ment by which the former -firm leased the mainland portion of the Alaska "panhandle." Under this arrangement the Hudson's Bay Company promised, among other things, to deliver annually to Sitka for ten years l5 tons of salted beef, 1-1/2 tons of ham, and 8 tons of butter, along with large quantities of grain and flour. [15]
This obligation evidently was the spur that led the Company to strengthen and reorganize the large-scale cattle raising venture. When legal advisers warned that the firm's charter might be jeopardized by major investments in commercial ventures outside the fur trade, the directors formed what was in effect, if not in law, a subsidiary corporation, the Puget's Sound Agricultural Company. It was organized in 1839, as Governor Simpson later wrote, "with the view of producing wheat, -wool, hides, and tallow for exportation." [16] He forgot to mention the beef and ham, but those items certainly must have been in the minds of the proprietors.
Chief Factor McLoughlin was in London while the new association was being formed. He was placed in charge of its affairs in the Columbia District and as compensation for these added duties was granted an annual salary of £500 in addition to his chief factor's share in the profits of the Hudson's Bay Company. This recognition smoothed McLoughlin's ruffled feelings, and apparently he returned to Fort Vancouver that fall somewhat more reconciled to the cattle trade.
During 1839 the London agents of the Puget's Sound Agricultural Company instructed McLoughlin to establish two farms for the firm, ' one at Cowlitz and the other at Nisqually. As a result, the Hudson s Bay Company farm at Cowlitz was transferred to the new association, while Fort Nisqually became jointly owned by the two companies. Livestock operations were to be concentrated at the latter post, which became the chief station of the agricultural firm. Flocks and herds were likewise to be shifted from the Hudson's Bay Company farms, including that at Fort Vancouver, but McLoughlin was also "to import from California as early as possible, sheep and black cattle, the former to be conveyed by sea, and the latter by the Bona Ventura trapping expedition on their return in 1841, say about 1,000 young cows." [17]
McLoughlin was slow to obey the injunction to transfer Fort Vancouver's flocks and herds to Cowlitz and Nisqually. On March 20, 1840, he informed Governor Simpson that to have moved the calves and lambs during the spring would have been "injurious to the Hudson's Bay Company and the Puget's Sound Association," but he promised to get a drive under way as soon as the annual inventory was taken. [18] Evidently this promise was kept, because by September 1841 there were 1,200 cattle and 6,000 sheep at Nisqually. [19]
The number remaining at Fort Vancouver was still substantial, however. Sir George Simpson visited the depot during the late summer of that year and reported finding between 400 and 500 cattle and 1,500 sheep there. [20] Somewhat remarkably, Lieutenant Wilkes, who was visiting Fort Vancouver at the same time, found the stock on the "Vancouver farm" to number about 3,000 cattle, 2,500 sheep, and about 300 brood mares. [21] One can only assume that he did not differentiate the livestock belonging to the Hudson's Bay Company from a large band of cattle and sheep that was owned by the Puget's Sound Agricultural Company and that had lately arrived overland from California and was then on the south bank of the Columbia waiting to be driven to Nisqually. [22]
As these figures demonstrate, the plan to import livestock from California was successful. Because the topic lies somewhat outside the main theme of this report, only a few highlights of this operation will be mentioned here. Alexander Simpson purchased about 700 sheep and shipped them in the Company's barque Columbia from San Francisco Bay during the fall of 1840. [23] Very early the next year Chief Factor James Douglas visited California and bought 661 cows and 3,670 "choice Ewes" and escorted them into the Sacramento Valley to get them started on their long overland drive to Fort Vancouver. [24]
Governor Simpson was so pleased with the results that on March 1, 1842, he told McLoughlin that no more livestock were needed. "We had it at one time in contemplation to get some more cattle and sheep conveyed from California to the Columbia River," he wrote, "but I think that now we have a sufficient number of these animals, if they be properly attended to, and . . . no further step should be taken towards procuring any more sheep or cattle from California." [25]
McLoughlin did not entirely obey this injunction. For example, Clerk Francis Ermatinger returned from the 1841-42 trapping expedition to California with eighty-three cattle he had purchased on his own account. Because such private enterprise on the part of employees was not permitted, McLoughlin bought the livestock on behalf of the Hudson's Bay Company. Captain Joseph Gale and a small group of Oregon settlers went to California by boat during the fall of 1842 and re turned to the Willamette Valley the next year with 1,250 cattle, 600 horses, and 3,000 sheep. J. W. Nesmith, who lived with Gale during the winter of 1843, apparently later indicated that 2,000 of the sheep may have been for the Puget's Sound Agricultural Company. [27]
During 1843 Jacob P. Leese of Sonoma, California, arrived in Oregon with a herd of 400 to 500 cattle and a band of perhaps as many as 900 sheep. [28] McLoughlin, not wishing to see the Willamette settlers form a cattle company in opposition to the firm he represented, invested £500 of his own funds in purchasing a substantial number of the cows. The Governor and Committee disapproved this transaction, be cause they believed the Company already had enough cattle, but they reluctantly agreed to reimburse McLoughlin for any expenses involved. [29]
Due to such purchases and to natural increases the number of live stock required for domestic use and for export was soon reached. By 1845 there were 2,280 cattle and 5,872 sheep at Nisqually alone. [30] During the spring of 1844 the Fort Vancouver farm, including the establishment on Sauvie Island, possessed 718 horses; 14 mules; 1 donkey; 172 oxen; 65 bulls; 1,034 cows, steers, heifers, and calves; and 832 pigs. [31] If the later testimony of James Douglas was correct, there were 517 horses, 1,915 cattle, 800 pigs, and about 3,000 sheep at the post in 1846. [32]
While the problem of quantity was solved, the matter of quality continued to plague both the Hudson's Bay Company and the Puget's Sound Agricultural Company as long as they remained in the beef producing business. The sheep, though about "as low in quality as they could well be" when imported from California, were gradually improved through crossing with blooded rams shipped from Europe. [33] The dairy herd was brought up in quality by breeding the California cattle with stock driven across the plains by American settlers or imported from England. [34]
With the beef cattle, however, little could be done. As the herds increased in size, the animals could no longer be confined on islands or in fenced fields but had to be allowed to roam under the care of employees who were not always attentive enough. Inevitably, many escaped and wandered at will. As early as 1839 James Douglas noted that the cattle were "becoming unapproachably wild." [35]
Deprived of the benefits of crossbreeding, the beef cattle re mained about as they had been when in California--thin, tough, wiry, long-horned brutes, wild as "the buffalo on the Saskatchewan." [36] When required for slaughter they had to be hunted down and shot like deer. [37]
Quite as difficult as building up the herds was the problem of producing fresh and preserved meat in sufficient quantity and of suitable quality to meet the needs of both the Company and the export trade. As late as 1839 Fort Vancouver was processing little more than enough meat to satisfy the requirements of domestic consumption and those of the Company's vessels. At least such a conclusion might be drawn from the fact that when Capt. Edward Belcher of the Royal Navy visited the depot during the summer of that year he was told by James Douglas that the Columbia District was "not in a condition to supply" bullocks and other provisions to such of Her Majesty's vessels as might enter the river. [38]
The terms of the Russian contract, which became known on the Columbia during the fall of 1839, proved embarrassing to McLoughlin. The next year he sent Alexander Simpson to Honolulu and to California in what was evidently a desperate search for enough casks to put up 600 hundredweight of beef. Simpson was also to salt the beef if procurable at either of those places, but because no casks could be obtained, the venture came to nothing. [39]
McLoughlin informed the Russians that he might not be able to meet the contract requirements for 1841, but the officials in Sitka were willing to wait until the next year. They indicated, however, that they expected the contract to be met with respect to meat in 1842 and succeeding years. [40] Evidently McLoughlin was able to comply with this demand. During Outfit 1844, for example, the Company shipped to Sitka 115 casks of salt beef, each weighing 215 pounds, from Fort Nisqually and 80-40/112 hundredweight of salt beef and 53-64/112 hundredweight of salt pork from Fort Vancouver. The beef in these shipments came to within 80 pounds of meeting the requirements of the contract, while the pork greatly exceeded the amount called for. [41] By the summer of 1845 McLoughlin believed he could provide 100 barrels of beef and 50 barrels of pork for export to Tahiti if a suitable price could be obtained. [42]
The quality of the meat sent to Sitka may not have been all that was desired, however, As early as 1842 complaints had reached the Governor and Committee in London concerning the "unsound state of the Salted Meat" provided at Fort Vancouver for use in the Company's vessels. From the samples they had seen, the directors told McLoughlin, the complaints were well founded. On December 21, 1842, they said they would try to send out from England "a person, qualified to make up preserved Meats for exportation," but evidently they were never able to find a man willing to bury himself in the far-off Columbia District for the offered "moderate wages" of about £75 a year. [43]
McLoughlin promised to give particular attention to the matter. [44] But perhaps he was not very successful in bringing up the quality, because in the fall of 1844 the Governor and Committee shipped out a patented "salting machine, for salting meat, fish, hides, &c." more effectively. Where the machine was set up has not yet been determined, but seemingly it was not a great success. [45]
It is obvious that by at least 1843 or 1844 there was need at the depot for a sizable storage area for the substantial quantities of salt meat prepared for domestic consumption, for the Company's shipping, and for export to the Russian colonies and elsewhere. This condition held true despite the facts that the larger part of the pre served meat supply seems to have been produced and processed at Nisqually and that by 1844 a substantial portion of the beef for Sitka was being shipped from Victoria. [46]
The first time a structure specifically named a "Beef Store" can be identified at Fort Vancouver is on the plan drawn by Lieutenant M. Vavasour during the fall of 1845. It was situated in the northwest corner of the fort enclosure, roughly eighty-five feet east of the west stockade wall and about thirty feet south of the north palisade (see Plates VI, VII, VIII, vol. I). It lay somewhat more than forty feet directly west of the Wheat Store.
43. Ibid., 6:299; What may have been an early recipe for salting beef at Fort Vancouver was jotted down by Clerk Edward Ermatinger in a notebook, evidently about 1828 or 1829. The formula was: "To Salt Beef Boil 8 pounds of Salt, 2 pounds of Sugar and 2 ounces of Salt petre, in six gallons of water, skim it; when cold pour it on the Beef." Ermatinger, "Old Memo. Book," n.p.
A glance at the "Line of Fire" map of September 1844 reveals that this same structure was standing at least a year before Vavasour's visit (see Plate V, vol. I). A large building, labeled No. 18, is shown on the Emmons plan of 1841 in the same general area of the courtyard (Plate III, Vol. I). Described by Emmons as a "General store House--provisions, Dry goods, Hardware, &c," its shape and dimensions seem to be similar to those of the later Beef Store. But the specific location seems quite different. The warehouse shown by Emmons is north of the well and the Granary. Vavasour's Beef Store is 'south of the well and west of the Granary.
In view of the inaccuracies of the Emmons drawing, already discussed several times in this report, it would not be safe to state positively that the Beef Store of 1845 was a new structure that re placed Emmons's warehouse. In fact, because of its early demise there is some reason for thinking that the 1845 Beef Store was then already an old building that had been utilized exclusively, or at least largely, for meat storage when the need arose. At the same time, however, it must be admitted that the important differences in location do indicate a new structure. For the time being, then, the question of when the Beef Store was erected must remain unanswered.
Whatever its origin, the Beef Store was destined to play a major role in Columbia District operations for only a short period. By March 1845 Chief Factor James Douglas was already talking about expanding the farm at Fort Victoria on Vancouver Island. "And then," he said, " we may kill our Beef and Pork there, more readily than in this River." [47] This move was to be a facet of the transfer of the main district depot from Fort Vancouver to Fort Victoria, which has been discussed earlier in this report.
Records thus far examined have not revealed to what extent this shift was actually made. Archibald McKinlay, who was clerk at the Oregon City post from early 1846 to 1849 and a frequent visitor to Fort Vancouver, testified years later that he believed the Company shipped no beef from the Columbia River depot after 1846 nor any longer slaughtered cattle there "by the wholesale." At Vancouver, he said, the Company thereafter killed only for its own use, and by 1849 the herds were so depleted that beef had to be bought from the settlers. [48]
As late as mid-summer, 1848, there were still large flocks of sheep, at least, at Fort Vancouver. [49] But by 1849 the general exodus of employees for the gold fields and the incursions of squatters who stole or wantonly shot the Company's stock made it impossible for the firm to maintain sizable herds, particularly of cattle. Some were driven to "positions of greater security"; others were permitted to run wild. [50] During October 1852 Chief Factor John Ballenden, then in charge of Fort Vancouver, decided to end all sheep breeding at that place and directed that the re maining f lock be driven overland to Fort Nisqually. [51]
The physical history of the Beef Store appears to reflect this picture of decline. One "Beef Store," seventy-five by thirty feet, was included in the 1846-47 inventory of Company property at Fort Vancouver. [52] What may be this structure appears on the Covington map of 1846 or some what later, though if so it is not shown in the correct location (see Plate XIII, vol. I). However, the Beef Store is clearly visible as the long, low, gable-roofed building to the right of the Granary in the 1847-48 painting by an unknown artist (Plate XV, vol. I) and in the 1851 drawing by George Gibbs (Plate XVIII, vol. I).
But the building appears to have been pulled down within a year or two after 1851. It was not listed by Dr. H. A. Tuzo among the buildings he found within the stockade upon his arrival in 1853.53 It was not shown on the careful survey made under the direction of Lieutenant Colonel Bonneville in 1854 (see Plate XIX, vol. I), nor can it be detected in the view of the post made by an unknown artist that same year (Plate XX, vol. I). In fact, no written or pictorial record of the Beef Store has been found later than 1851. It must be assumed that because the Company no longer had need for a beef store at Vancouver, the structure formerly used for that purpose was removed.
Archeological excavations in 1952 were unsuccessful in determining the exact location or outline of the Beef Store. Its site is now designated as Building No. 3 on the site plan of Fort Vancouver National Historic Site.
The Columbia District employee rolls for Outfit 1845 provide no clue as to which employees might have been assigned to the Beef Store.

Lanzmann's 'The Last of the Unjust' Portrays the Judenrat as Moral Heroes of the Shoah
In a candid conversation, the great filmmaker considers his Jewish Orpheus, banality, and his final word
Telling Murmelstein's story also meant crafting a new style distinct from Shoah, in which interview scenes were conjoined with first-person testimony by Lanzmann, and even the judiciously chosen archival material that had been barred from Lanzmann's masterwork. Shoah had required one distinct set of rules, and Last of the Unjust prompted another: "This is a film of absolute freedom. I am completely free. I did not depend on what I did before. And it was very important to use these archives. It is very strong."
Before being deported to Theresienstadt, Murmelstein had been a prominent rabbi in Vienna, bearing helpless witness to the decimation of the once-flourishing Viennese Jewish community. Eichmann, in Murmelstein's estimation, was no mild-mannered bureaucrat, but an avatar of unimaginable horror, an endlessly brutal and inhuman emissary of anti-Semitic rage and cruelty. Murmelstein dismisses Arendt's arguments in two scoffing words: "Him, banal?" One of The Last of the Unjust's seminal additions to our understanding of the Holocaust is Murmelstein's account of the years spent tangling with Eichmann. In Vienna, Eichmann bled wealthy Jews' bank accounts before turning over precious exit visas, and he also treated Theresienstadt as a private slush fund, enabling him to bankroll his own activities without needing to make financial requests of the Nazi hierarchy.
Murmelstein served as an assistant to the head of the Theresienstadt Jewish Council before taking over the role after his two predecessors were, respectively, shot and deported to Auschwitz. As Terezin's Scheherazade, Murmelstein was required to spin out the Nazis' tall tales, pretending to the world that a ghetto where tens of thousands of people were starved, beaten and tortured before being deported to death camps was a humanely-governed Jewish enclave. He was, in his own estimation, the Sancho Panza of the concentration camps, "pragmatic and calculating."
In his interview, Murmelstein advocates for his case: The deportation of the crippled and elderly from Theresienstadt was not his decision, but solely the Nazis'. His own seeming lack of empathy for the victims of the Nazis was a product of his own tenuous position as an intermediary: "you don't get very far by weeping or wavering." Ultimately, Murmelstein is at once one of the survivors, and kept permanently apart from the tragedy of the Holocaust: "I don't have the right to cry with those women."
The trial of Adolf Eichmann in Israel in 1961, and Arendt's reportage in her controversial book Eichmann in Jerusalem, had calcified the stereotype of the Jewish Council elder as a morally corrupt charlatan, preserving his own life at the expense of those he professed to represent. Murmelstein was hiding out in Rome as an exile from Israel, where he yearned to go, by the Jewish community that had needed his intercession. He was now a kind of lay war criminal, his protective schemes recalibrated as an untrammeled lust for power. Murmelstein acknowledges his love of adventure, and even his taste for power, but forcefully rejects any claim that he abused that power. "I believed I had something to accomplish," he tells Lanzmann.
Like Shoah, The Last of the Unjust provides firsthand testimony to the Holocaust that, in many instances, undoes or reverses established beliefs. According to Murmelstein, Kristallnacht was not spurred by Herschel Grynspan's assassination of diplomat Ernst von Rath in November 1938, but by another perceived Jewish atrocity: the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the Weimar state, the "Jews' Republic." And with the little-known Nisko concentration camp, the Nazis were already deporting, and exterminating, European Jews as early as 1939, testing the international response to the future genocide.
The Last of the Unjust is a travelogue through the past, with scenes of Jewish prayer—the Kol Nidre from Yom Kippur, the kaddish for the dead—being ritually reenacted in the places where the Jews of Europe had once gathered, and gather no more. For Lanzmann, the presence of the cantor, chanting in a Vienna synagogue surrounded by the names of the dead, was less a religious affair than a relic of the dead: "He's all alone, the man in the synagogue. It is Jewish memory, it is a memory of the past." Calm prevails where terror once reigned; a thin trickle of river now marks the demarcation line between German- and Soviet-controlled Poland, once the barrier between life and death for Polish Jews. Lanzmann is as moved as ever by the peacefulness of places once wracked by violence.
The film ends with Lanzmann and Murmelstein strolling through 1975 Rome. Murmelstein is breathing a sigh of relief at having endured one more trial—this time the inquiries of the French filmmaker and intellectual who had come to visit him. Murmelstein says that Lanzmann has been "playing the prosecutor" and describes him as "the final danger to come my way." He is joking, in a sense; Lanzmann insists on the humorousness of Murmelstein's remarks when I bring them up. But of course there is more than a little truth to them, as well. Lanzmann has been appointed judge and jury over Murmelstein, and The Last of the Unjust is a decided verdict of not guilty—more than that, of underappreciated moral decency. Whether we trust Murmelstein to quite the same extent that Lanzmann does is one of the more intriguing unanswered questions of the film.
As Lanzmann and Murmelstein stroll in the Roman sunshine, we may think about how much the onetime elder of Theresienstadt might have appreciated his portrayal in The Last of the Unjust. Lanzmann sees him as a Jewish Orpheus, who has visited the underworld and returned to testify. We may also take note of the Roman landmark in the distance—one specially selected by Murmelstein as an appropriate backdrop to this conversation. The Arch of Titus was constructed by the Roman emperor Domitian in the aftermath of another Jewish catastrophe—the destruction of the Second Temple, and the sacking of Jerusalem, in the year 70. Legend has it that no Jew has ever walked underneath the arch in the two thousand years since. It isn't true, exactly, but it expresses something powerful nonetheless about resilience and determination in the face of horror.
Murmelstein and Lanzmann keep their backs to the arch, symbolic representative of the manifold calamities of Jewish history, but it hulks over them, ever-present, shadowing their every step. With trepidation, I asked Lanzmann whether he believes The Last of the Unjust to be his final word on the Holocaust, or whether there will be further films on the subject. "Excuse me, you are not entitled to ask me such a question," he replied. "I don't know. Maybe I can make some other film."

Welcome to guest blogger Amy Eisenstein, whose superb guidebook—Major Gift Fundraising for Small Shops—was just released . Grab it, it's great.
Wish you knew how to build and deepen relationships with people who can advance your issue or cause—like major gift prospects—but you just don't how?
Fundraisers who work in small development shops are frequently overwhelmed by the details of grant writing, direct mail, and event planning. I've been there, and I bet you have too.
As a result, you can end up leaving a lot of money on the table. And you marketers face the same pressures from a different set of challenges!

It's been 13 days since I last updated. Oh man, it's going to be SUCH a long update. Crazy.
But for now, I'm just thinking. Daydreaming. Hoping. Dreaming. Reminiscing.
Daydreaming. Daydreaming of the future, of the next few months, of the few remaining plans and ideas I have. I can't publicly say what some of them are here, but they are very creative and neat ideas that I have been holding onto for months! And I am anxious to begin. And I daydream of what will happen after their initiation, daydream of what the future will bring, and daydream of how I will try to change the world.
Hoping. I'm hoping to change the world. To do something grand with my video games, have some kind of huge cultural impact, have an influence so large that I can help lots of other people. Hoping for this goal that doesn't seem so far out of sight, and hoping that life will continue to be happy. It really has been just like a dream.
Dreaming. Dreaming of attaining impractical goals. Of never giving up, of always going onwards, and even when you are told that you can never succeed, to push on. And I dream of other things, that I probably cannot say, but are some of my larger aspirations, that I spend hours working on trying to get, and envisioning what I can accomplish. It is such a contrast from the past.
Reminiscing. Reminiscing on how I used to be. A soulless unemotional socially-retarded sad-sack excuse of a person. A person who sincerely believed that their value as a human being wasn't worth a dang thing. A waste of air, resources, energy, and space. A horrible altruist only able to hurt other people. And so it goes that as life ran, I had to catch up, and now things are different. I can't remember anything before 8th grade. Barely can remember 9th. But I can remember all those times where it seemed like the world did not care for me, always leaving me alone, to feel the horrible pain of the worst two emotions possible: uselessness and loneliness.
And now things are different. I have great friends, a caring family, a huge support, helpful teachers and mentors and role models, an understanding of emotions and all the crazy social complexities that govern this loonybin.
It makes me happy and calm to think of such things. As I wait to get some Calculus work, this reminds me of why I continue to try to be as good as I can, of why I want to be the best friend I can.
How can one not be happy, if everything is always okay?
And when I feel bad, or guilty, I now have these philosophies to help me get through. I could feel the worst guilt in a long time
And that is okay.
Because everything is always okay, and will just keep on getting better.

Unfulfilled Lyrics - Quicksand
To stand the test of time,
to stand alone.
To be without the glue,
that keeps us glued together.
And feeling so excrementable.
It only goes to show you,
how many ways you don抰 know you.
When the bad sets in,
I could use some sleep.
Resting, falling,
falling deeper than deep.
We miss the point to carry on,
we miss the point.
To carry on where.
Things you love but did not get.
And all the times you抳e been upset by,
sponsored linksunfulfilled dreams and visions,
and the guilt for your wrong decisions.
It抯 so hard to pry away.
Pry out from under all the lies,
and distractions of the world,
You抳e seen what they can do,
but you can抰 see your way out.
We miss the point to carry on.
All thing fall through.
That how it feels, when you hear the sound of disappointment.
So unsatisfied,
when the sight's set higher.
Some can抰 achieve, don抰 believe,
there is light at the end at all.
There抯 no light.
Time to reach out for what抯 real,
it抯 easy to miss, insist,
that you shouldn抰 always follow the first thing you feel.

|PVBIA - Letter of the President
President's Letter Nov/Dec 2010
Dear Members,
I attended the quarterly Home Builders Association of Virginia meeting in Falls Church this week. Membership is a crucial topic at the State and Local levels. We have more legislative influence and can accomplish more when we have great numbers. We thank you for your membership this year and look forward to offering you great events, speakers and benefits in 2011.
We would like to thank John Cooley, Culpeper County Zoning, for speaking at our November dinner about the Transportation Impact Fees that are moving through the approval process. If you own land in Culpeper or are planning to expand or move your business in Culpeper, it is in your best interest to take a look at what these fees would add to the cost of your project (www.culpepercounty.gov – go to Planning & Zoning page and page down until you see Transportation Impact Fee Document Review Binder – check out Pg 19 for specific fees for types of development). This is for By-Right as wells as Rezonings. Take the time to attend the December 7 (7pm) Board of Supervisors meeting and voice your opinion!
I have a new Customer for you. Isn't that one of your favorite things to hear? How would you like to open up your business to State projects? The PVBIA with the generous assistance of REC hosted a number of Lead Paint Certification Classes this year. The response we got locally and regionally to these classes was excellent. We would like to follow this up with workshops / classes in 2011. After the wonderful presentation that Coffeewood Correctional Center made about doing business with them or any other state agency at our November meeting, I am trying to find someone to teach local businesses how to navigate the State's eVa system. If you are currently using eVA, please let me "pick your brain" on the subject. In the meantime, check out the state's website at www.eva.state.va.us.
The County has an application for positions on Boards, Committees and Commissions posted on their main webpage (www.culpepercounty.gov). If you really want to make a difference and live in the County, fill out this simple form and participate.
Thank you to the Culpeper Chamber for the very successful mixer in October. We had a trio of builders tending bar and Ed Gentry provided some yummy appetizers for the crowd. We had a fabulous turnout. I met some great local business people and even got a lead for some new business. What could be better. Let's do it again sometime.
Thanks for a great year and we look forward to serving you in the new year.
Happy Holidays,
Alex Cannon

Johns Hopkins Medicine values faculty, staff and students' contributions to programs and organizations that benefit the community. In fact, our five-year strategic plan notes community engagement as part of our people priority. One major initiative that empowers employees to give back is our annual United Way campaign. Every fall, Johns Hopkins Medicine raises funds and awareness about important issues in our own backyard: central Maryland and the D.C. capital region.
The 2013 campaign begins on Monday, October 14, and continues through Friday, November 1. Even though the campaign officially ended on November 1, you can still make a donation through Tuesday, December 31.
Last year, through the generous support of our faculty, staff and students, Johns Hopkins Medicine exceeded its goal. This year's goal is $1,725,912, and we hope to exceed it yet again. We are confident that we can make even more of a difference. Keep reading to learn more about this year's campaign and how you can help change the lives of others.
2013 Campaign Theme: "Changing the Odds for Families Facing Poverty"
What do you picture when you hear the word homelessness? You may picture a man or a woman standing on the street begging for money. Or you may think of someone who has had a difficult life challenged by drug abuse or mental illness. Statistics show that families are one of the most rapidly growing homeless groups. In fact, in the past five years, the homeless student population has more than doubled.
In central Maryland, the cost of housing can be an enormous barrier for many families, considering that a person earning minimum wage would have to work more than three full-time jobs to afford a two-bedroom apartment. United Way has committed to a three-pronged approach that emphasizes homelessness prevention, housing assistance and financial education to help these groups become self-sufficient. To learn more about homelessness in central Maryland and the United Way's solution, visit uwcm.org/family
You Have the Power to Choose
Although the campaign focuses on changing the odds for families facing poverty through the United Way, you choose where your dollars go. You can donate to the United Way general fund, select a specific initiative (such as the Family Stability Initiative or the Johns Hopkins Neighborhood Fund), or choose a 501(c)(3) health and human services organization of your choice. You can even choose a combination of these options.
- To learn more about the United Way of Central Maryland's initiatives, visit uwcm.org/initiatives.
- To learn more about the United Way of the National Capital Area's specific initiatives, visit unitedwaynca.org/work.
- Ready to donate? Visit login.johnshopkins.edu/unitedway to make a donation today.
Thank you for helping the many families and communities who are in desperate need of assistance. United Way needs your continued support in making a difference. Live "United" and help Johns Hopkins Medicine reach its 2013 campaign goal of $1.7 million.

While I don't agree with everything Pat Buchanan espouses, there is an air of truth throughout this article. It certainly makes one think. However, I would have ended this editorial with the following correction: "As ever, the outcome of the struggle for the world is in doubt", and now more than ever we come back to ask "To Whom Shall We Go". John 6:69
"To govern the bark of Saint Peter and proclaim the Gospel, both strength of mind and body are necessary, strength which in the last few months, has deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognize my incapacity to adequately fulfill the ministry entrusted to me."
With those brave, wise, simple words, Benedict XVI announced an end of his papacy. How stands the Church he has led for eight years?
While he could not match the charisma of his predecessor, John Paul II, his has been a successful papacy. He restored some of the ancient beauty and majesty...

My name is Nikita Baryshnikov. This is my blog.
A true silver screen icon, Audrey Hepburn's elegant style and elfin beauty are synonymous with 20th Century Hollywood glamour.
She was born May 4's 1929 in Belgium. Hepburn came to the world's attention with a breakout role in Roman Holiday for which she won the 1954 Best Actress Oscar. Her career moved fast and her next film Sabrina not only cemented her status as one of Tinseltown's finest, but introduced her to the designer to whom she would become muse - Hubert de Givenchy.
Givenchy went on to design the actress' personal ensembles, as well as those made famous by her in timeless films such as Funny Face and Breakfast at Tiffany's. She later said, "His are the only clothes in which I am myself. He is far more than a couturier, he is a creator of personality."

Latest National Club Champs Qualifiers Confirmed
Middelburg, Brakpan and Noordelikes are the latest teams set to qualify for the 37th National Club Championships in Stellenbosch next month, following a drama-filled weekend of club rugby action from around the country.
The season-ending tournament, which features the 14 provincial champions, a team from Limpopo, as well as one invited club in a 16-team knockout draw, takes place at the Danie Craven Stadium from September 17-23.
Defending Mpumalanga champions Middelburg retained their title on Saturday after opponents White River, the province's newly-crowned Lowveld champions, withdrew from the second leg of the Super League final. Middelburg, the Hoëveld-Koolveld regional champions, won the first leg 35-8.
Brakpan caused an upset when they beat favourites and defending champions Springs 25-15 in the Valke Peregrine Super League final. Springs, playing on their home ground and in their 15th consecutive final, were expected to retain their crown after losing just one of their 14 league matches, but league runners-up Brakpan, the 2008 Club Champs semi-finalists, hung on for a nailbiting win.
Noordelikes beat Dorp 32-22 in Saturday's Limpopo Blue Bulls final.
All three teams' participation must still be officially ratified by their provinces.
It was however confirmed at a meeting of SARU's Executive Committee in Cape Town on Friday that Western Province Super League A club SK Walmers would be the invited team at this year's tournament.
Middelburg, Brakpan, Noordelikes and SK Walmers will be joined in Stellenbosch by defending champions and KZN qualifiers College Rovers, Roses United (Boland), Maties (WP), Progress (SWD), Shimlas (Free State), Kimberley Police (Griquas), Welkom Rovers (Griffons), Winter Rose (Border), and University of Johannesburg (Golden Lions).
Eastern Province's qualifier will be known on Wednesday when two-time national champions Despatch play Park in the province's Grand Challenge final.
Tukkies will play Pretoria Police in the Blue Bulls' Carlton League final on 10 September, following the students' 37-23 semi-final victory over Centurion on Saturday. Police beat Pretoria Harlequins 34-18 in the other semi-final.
The Leopards will confirm their teams in due course.

Reviews for Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Lotion SPF 50+ by Neutrogena

Light and easy
I tried this in a small tube and loved it. it was light enough to wear without the heavy feel of sunscreen, it's great to wear under make up or on top. I definitely felt better knowing I was protected without my face being an oil slick of normal sunscreen!

This sunscreen is fantastic.
Pros -
Sets nicely
No need for powder - non - oily / non - greasy
Does not break me out
Hydrating and skin feels soft
Cheap ($15 at coles, $12 at Chemist Warehouse)
Cons -
You have to blend this sunscreen in really well as it tends to leave white streaks. On tanned people (NC43) it tends to leave a white cast.
Easily avalible at most stores - I get mine from Coles and Chemist Warehouse. Packaging is amazing and easy to use. Has a high SPF and does a great job at protecting the skin.

I have dry blemish prone skin so have preference for light, oil free, non greasy face sunscreens. I thought I would try this when it was released as SPF 50+ (as my existing sunscreen is a lower SPF), however would not use it daily. I always wear sunscreen on my face, however prefer milks or oil free options. Although this is supposed to be ultra sheer and dry touch I still thought it felt thick. I only use it if Im going to be in direct sun exposure, however prefer my milk - oil free option for incidental sun exposure.

Great stuff!
I really enjoyed using this sunscreen, unlike many other sunscreens I have tried, this doesn't leave my face feeling unpleasant and greasy.
The product is light weight and absorbs into the skin quickly, it dries to a semi matte finish which is great if you plan on wearing makeup over the top of it. The packaging is sturdy and compact and best and importantly of all you wont get sunburnt. Great stuff!

Great Sunscreen
I have a bottle of this sunscreen in my bag ! It is a great product thats light weight, easy to apply, covers nicely, and honestly can not remember the last time i was burnt. It comes it a lightweight packaging that is easy enough to carry around so you have it on hand at all times. I have used it on every member of my family including my three little children and it has never caused irriatation on skin. Its easy to rub in and doesnt leave a thick coating left behind, which would annoy the little ones if it did.

Great lightweight sunscreen
This is a great lightweight and non-greasy sunscreen lotion. I wouldn't describe it as a totally 'dry touch' sunscreen it is a lot less greasy than other sunscreen's on the market and easily absorbs into the skin.
It doesn't feel heavy on the skin but does leave a slight sheer on the skin.

It feels light and non greasy compared to other sun cream. I took the product on a holiday trip to Singapore and Malaysia. It was great because the weather was hot was sweaty but I felt that the product did work. I didn't feel as yucky compared to other sun creams that I used in the past.

Doesn't dry to a matte finish, but still great for use under makeup
I tried a sample this a few months ago as part of a set from PinchMe. It was easily one of the standout products from the set.
It didn't dry to a completely matte finish on me, but was certainly much less greasy and thinner than traditional sunscreens. I like to apply sunscreen under my foundation, as I'm perpetually worried about melanoma and premature wrinkles from even 15 minutes of sun exposure. Generally this isn't a great combo in Summer, because while the sunscreen aids against sun damage, it also causes my foundation to slip and slide around my face.
Though it never dried to a matte finish, using this under my makeup definitely reduced the amount of slip. I'm a bit iffy about Neutrogena's animal testing policy, but I would consider purchasing this in full-size were it on sale and in a much larger tube. (Sidenote: why is sunscreen not cheaper in Australia?!)

Best sunscreen I've ever tried!
I switched to this sunscreen a few years ago after another brand started causing breakouts on my skin and I haven't looked back. Believe the product when it says it is Dry Touch - I've touched my skin numerous times to query that fact and not once have my hands felt or looked greasy afterwards! I don't think it has ever caused me to break out, nor has it irritated my rather sensitive skin. It doesn't feel heavy on my skin either - I've sometimes worn it most of the day & into the evening without feeling an urgency to wash it all off (although 99% of the time I do anyway).
Unlike a lot of other sunscreens, this doesn't smell horrible and it is convenient to throw into your handbag or beach bag for travelling, without taking up too much space. I will admit that if you're not careful with application, it can leave marks on your clothes, but as long as you wash it out quickly, it doesn't stain them permanently.
One downside is is that it is pricey for the amount you get and I wish it came in a larger bottle. You can find it cheaper in Chemist Warehouse most of the time, compared to other stores. That said, I still wouldn't switch brands because this really does work and I'm happy that it now comes in SPF50+ as I need all the SPF I can get being of the fair-skinned variety!

Saturday is Small Business Saturday. This is your opportunity to support the small business owners in your community. And just who are these small business owners?
Well, 28 years ago, because of a job transfer, I relocated from Michigan to Merrillville. I didn't know anyone. A business acquaintance urged me to join the Merrillville Jaycees. It was a great opportunity to meet people by volunteering.
And who else was in the Jaycees? Scott Ribordy (Ribordy Drugs), Cheryl Bakker (Bakker Produce), Nancy Bryan (Bryan's Florist), Hal Slager (Trico Graphics and now a state representative), Rich Miller (Spitz and Miller Insurance) and Gary Miller (Fagen-Miller Funeral Homes and Ambulance) – to name a few. It's easy to see what they all have in common – family businesses and community service.
We were all giving back to the communities in which we lived and worked. We supported those who supported us. Merrillville Jaycees built a haunted house every fall and scared hundreds of visitors. Griffith Jaycees sponsored the annual Easter Egg Hunt in Central Park. Young people giving of their time and talent to help their local communities.
Give thanks to the small businesses that distinguish one community from another. But remember, the survival of the small business is dependent on us. They will be sustained only if we continue to give them our patronage.
And those business owners are essential to charitable organizations, frequently serving on boards, and supporting a variety of causes. Did you know that behind many of our nonprofit organizations, there are two or three major local supporters? Ask anyone who raises funds for local nonprofits, they will tell you those independents are their base of support. It is the local entrepreneurs giving of themselves to support the cause and promote their business.
Northwest Indiana has many galas annually, and the majority of support comes from the local businesses by way of sponsorships and donations of items and services for the silent auctions.
Our local business owners have a vested interest in their community. They need the community to thrive for their existence. We need them to thrive because small local businesses are the largest employer nationally and provide the most jobs to residents.
Personally, as a resident of Highland and employer to 700, mostly Hoosiers, we focus our giving to the local nonprofit organizations. We are solicited almost every day by a nonprofit to help their cause.
Often the neighboring states come into Indiana to do business. They take the easy, low-hanging fruit and contribute little to our infrastructure. There is no vested interest on their part. They can leave any time. It is different for the small business owner who makes the region their home.
So stop and shop the Saturday after Thanksgiving, and do your part to help make this Small Business Saturday one of the biggest shopping days of the year for our small businesses and consider dining at one of our unique restaurants and say "thank you" for being here in the region.

The intense heat this week can be tough on roads, causing cracking, or in extreme cases even buckling.
"Wow! Geez! I'm glad that wasn't my car."
"That was pretty terrifying!"
That's the common reaction when people see this video. It's made it all the way from a Wisconsin cell phone to CNN and YouTube.
The car goes airborne, in the middle of a Wisconsin highway, then slides into the opposite lanes.
The culprit is extreme heat. That "ramp-like" piece of concrete is a result of what's known as heaving or buckling.
"The concrete expands and it has no where else to go and it just pops up," Tim Hanson, City of Rockford Public Works Director explains.
Concrete isn't built to deal with temperatures like we are experiencing right now.
"Once it happens, and it heaves, it's pretty dramatic," Hanson says. "So when you have something like that occurs, we just have to be able to react to it. But there's nothing we can do to prepare for it."
Road crews try to patch up troubled areas when they find them. They use a material that does not often buckle.
"Asphalt has enough flexibility through heating and cooling," Mark Stockman, City of Rockford Street Superintendent says. "It's a little more of a rubberized type of material, for lack of a better comparison. It will expand and contract and not have a catastrophic failure."
The City of Rockford has seen heaving in roads like 2nd Street and areas on Alpine in the past, but luckily, none yet this year.
"I'm surprised we haven't seen anything thus far, with the heat wave that we've had," Hanson says. "And over the next several days, it can happen at anytime. There's nothing that you can really do to combat against it. But when it heaves, we'll hear about it."

|Apple vs. the Bloggers: How It Unfolded and Where It Stands Now
|I hope Apple takes it up to the Supremes.

Response to: I hope Apple takes it up to the Supremes.
To start with, I am reporting on what the court said. I am not second-guessing it just what it said and what it means. Please don't think that your disagreement with the court gives you a license for rudeness.
Showing messages 1 through 1 of 1.
I hope Apple takes it up to the Supremes.

As I said, bloggers or whatever they want to call themselves, are not journalists. You've cited Lauren Gelman's "spin", which is nothing more than a parroting of the EFF spin on the ruling. Unless you're actually engaged in journalism and doing real reporting as opposed to publishing verbatim from another source, you're not a journalist. Publishing stolen trade secrets is not journalism.
Before the reporter's shield law could be invoked, the Mitchell Test must be applied, which the court did not do. They cited that case in their ruling, but only after they had already determined they were going to try to extend the reporter's shield to any blogger.
I can't recall the case citation, but I did read the ruling with interest when it came out. There simply is no First Amendment protection for reporters, no matter what the EFF would like everyone to believe. Regardless of the California Supreme Court decisions, U.S. Supreme Court rulings take precedence.
You're right, this isn't a criminal case--yet. And that should worry the plaintiffs a great deal, because there is no protection for reporters in a criminal case for not disclosing their sources. Should they be convicted, they will spend time in prison.
Rob Enderle should never be asked for a comment, or quoted; he's always wrong whenever the subject is Apple Computer.
The court detailed various options Apple could have taken to possibly find the source of the leak, but in the end, they assumed Apple did none of them, because Apple didn't give them any details on what they had or had not done. There's no evidence to support their conclusion, and unfortunately, nothing to disprove it.
There is a very real difference between "are they journalists" and "are they protected" under Mitchell. You could be a journalist and yet acting in a manner inconsistent with journalism, such as knowingly publishing stolen trade secrets. In that case, you would not be protected by the reporter's shield.
It wouldn't matter if it were the New York Times or the L.A. Times; Apple or any other tech company would sue them if they published trade secrets. Even their editors know better than to get involved in that. Many bloggers, including Jason O'Grady have tried to sell the argument that Apple wouldn't sue a big media organization.
They're wrong, because it's not a question of money; both NYT and LA Times have plenty of money and lawyers on retainer. Apple would sue them anyway.
Apple will appeal, all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court if they have to, and I'm confident this ruling will be reversed.

Catching up!
Posted By admin on September 11, 2009
Well, despite all good intentions, it all got away from us. We have been so busy in the garden that time on the computer has become a hazy memory!
This year we decided to part company with a huge chunk of lawn and dug it up to plant spuds. We grew First Earlies, Pink Fir Apple (which became known here as Pink Fur Ball) and King Edward maincrop. We harvested over 100lbs of spuds from that! The other spare lawn was given over to a raised bed, constructed of breeze blocks and filled with home made compost from our ten compost bins. This became the outdoor tomato bed, as the greenhouse was full of pepper plants. The tomatoes we grew were Plum Roma, (good, but we still prefer Il Romano), Orange Banana, another plum tom, nice flavour but not outstanding, and Tamina, a salad tomato. Not very tomatoey, but pleasant enough. We'll try different ones again next year.
Red onions and garlic did spectacularly well, but we've decided not to grow them next year, and use the extra space for more garlic, as we use such a lot. It will save more money growing garlic. Beetroot was a good crop , as were (and still are, due to succession sowing) Little Gem lettuces and French Breakfast radishes.
Summer cabbage was good and the red cabbages are now sitting in jars of vinegar, waiting for Christmas. The brassicas are another story.
We were dilligent, we rubbed eggs off by the million, we squished caterpillars by the thousand, we washed them off with the hose. No good. The Cabbage White butterfly had a good time at our expense. next year we will net them.
We've had carrots all season, and it's such a treat to eat a carrot that tastes like a carrot. A lot of the supermarket ones are a lovely bright orange, but have little flavour. We grew Early Nantes and Autumn King. Some of the latter are still in the garden. The leeks look healthy enough too. Plenty of Leek and Potato Soup this winter. I'll put the recipe on the cooking thread later.
The runner beans were slow to start, but once they took off, they went like the clappers! We have over 30lbs of beans in the freezer. We grew Scarlet Emperor, Streamline (good for freezing), and tried Haricot beans too. They grew well, but we came to the conclusion that a decent crop would take too much ground, so it would probably be more economical to buy haricot beans and use the ground for something else.
Courgettes grew so fast that we had too many marrows. Fun to grow, but difficult to use up at their peak, so maybe no more of them next year.
The fruit harvest has been a bit like the Curate's Egg…good in parts. We had a splendid harvest of mid season raspberries, plenty to eat, freeze and make into jam from just six original canes, but the autumn ones are a poor show. Despite watering, we have had no real rain for about 6 weeks here now, it is the driest summer I can remember. The jostaberries were plentiful, as are the blackberries and apples. Greengages were disappointing, but the cherries were wonderful! We have a Stella cherry tree, about five years old and grafted onto a dwarf rootstock so it doesn't outgrow our smallish garden. The fruit was delicious, ane we beat the birds to them!
Our biggest 'investment' this year has been the addition of our ladies, four hybrid hens! They arrived at the end of May as Point of Lay Pullets, and we are getting a steady 3/4 eggs a day. They are little trouble, fun to watch, eat the weeds and vegetable scraps, enrich our compost with their droppings, give us eggs…all this for a few pence a day!
Meet the girls, Kay, Chicken, Chips, and Stew
Back soon with more pics and news

TEAMS: New England Patriots
FOXBORO, Mass. — Had Radio City Music Hall been filled with Patriots fans on Friday April 27 rather than New Yorkers, gasps, followed by boos, may have rained down when the No. 91 overall pick was announced. Many had never heard Duron Harmon's name before when New England made him its fourth pick in the draft. But if Harmon keeps up the same attitude he had on Friday afternoon during the first day of Patriots rookie mini-camp, he could make a lot of analysts and fans look mighty stupid. Out of all the first-year players that spoke on Friday, the Rutgers safety seemed the most eager to dive headfirst into his weighty defensive playbook. "My approach to learning new things is fun. This is what I want to do the rest of my life. I like learning," Harmon said. "I like learning new schemes. I like learning more about football. So it's not really daunting. It's more fun. It's more of a great challenge that I want to conquer to learn the playbook as fast as I can." That kind of attitude may...

Healing meters mean something only if you set them up to show effective heals in combat.
The one I use is SW Stats.
Overhealing means nothing at all as far as I am concerned.
The real question is if you can afford that overhealing or not.
Healing competitive ? Mmmm
There are healers that blind heal the main tank no matters what.
Of course, the guy takes 80% of the damage so is a nice way to stuff you healing numbers.
But a healing priest with COH can't be only healing the tank.
Do you realize that COH heals for 4200 health every second? And you could spam it 4 or 5 times.
That's 21000 healed within 5 seconds!!
But a healer can not be limited to his healing assignment.
If no one is flexible and only heals his assignment then its a guaranteed wipe if one of the healer dies.
His death creates a domino effect in the raid and its over.
To evaluate a healer performance, I usually look at his healing breakdown and total effective healing.
How many people does he effectively care healing?
Where is he (the healer himself) in his own breakdown? (that reveals if he knows where to stand in the fight). The overhealing % could be interesting to check.
Also healing Karazhan and SSC (or TK) are 2 different things.
COH is pretty worthless in Kara but shines in 25 men raids.
From the comments I can read here, a lot of the people have no clue what healing really is.
Healing is more than just healing your assignment!
Healer A heals only Tank A.
Healer B heals only Tank B.
The boss is at 5%
Bad luck for healer B, an add cleaves and insta kills him. Tank B that was on that add is not healed as healer A does not want to heal tank B who is not his assignment... Its a domino effect and a wipe.
You have to be super flexible
To conclude, there is a difference to make about healing trash mobs kills and bosses kills.
Trash mobs favor fast healers. There is almost no mana management on trash.
Which is not the case on bosses.
I look at the complete raid numbers, as well as for each attempts.
BTW, the best of all meters is WWS:
