He first appears in the episode, Kissed, when Greer goes to the kitchen looking for items for a picnic, assuming he can't read. She leaves the list after being called by Mary and he sends the basket to her that night.
After Greer's romantic night with Prince Tomás is ruined, she goes to the kitchen to return the food and ends up chatting with Leith. He reveals that he comes from a family of shepherds but chose to leave them to work in the palace. They share a brief kiss, Greer's first, and she leaves troubled. Later he's seen with a stain of white flour in his cheek, marking him as the man that Nostradamus prophesied that Greer will fall in love with.
In Hearts and Minds, Leith meets up with Greer at the Costume Ball after she leaves a costume for him in his room. When they see each other at the dance they eventually share a kiss.
In A Chill in the Air, Greer makes an attempt to spark things up with a visiting lord but is distracted by Leith and wine is spilled on her dress. In the halls, Leith meets up with her and offers to clean her dress. Later, Leith delivers the dress to Greer and when he starts flirting with her she reminds him how she needs to find a husband and asks him to not to flirt and talk to her. At the end of the episode, Leith assumes she's there to tell him to do something, she goes and kisses him, after she tells him that she will be married one day but doesn't want to regret what she could have done with her time at the castle.
In Left Behind, Leith and Greer are spending time together by cooking in the kitchen. When the castle is under siege, Leith, Greer, and the other kitchen servants are trapped in the kitchen. During the feast, a guard tries to find out where Greer is and draws his sword against Leith.In The Darkness, he and Greer discuss First Light and how he has to prepare lots for it. During the festival, he comes up to her with an invitation from Lord Castleroy to dine with her. During dinner Lord Castleroy gets caught on fire and Leith puts it out, after Greer shows affection towards Leith and asks him if he is burnt, Lord Castleroy appears to know that there is something going on. Later Greer convinces Lord Castleroy to let Leith have a position in one of his spice factories as a trainee because of saving his life.
In Monsters, Leith is first seen giving out cake to the female servants on whom will find the bean to become Queen of the Bean for a day. He seems to be jealous watching Mary bless Greer and Lord Julien's engagement. Later, Leith visits Greer's chambers for one last stolen moment only to be caught with her by Lord Julian. Leith is taken to the dungeon and Lord Julian kindly breaks their engagement. As a result, Leith is drafted into the royal army instead of being sent to prison thanks to Lord Castleroy, Greer's fiancee.
Leith returns in Higher Ground. In battle, Leith saves Prince Francis from nearly being killed. Later, they are ambushed once again by the English. They have a huge canon making it impossible for them to escape. They have no choice but to stay and fight or to die trying. Francis notices that the English have stashed all of their gunpowder right beside the canon, and he comes up with an idea to take them down. The others, however, aren't too enthusiastic, claiming that they're merely "chess pieces" in this war. Francis insists that he doesn't view them as throwaway pawns. He's able to convince the men to carry out his plan. They distract the English while Francis climbs atop a hill and fires a single arrow into the stockpile of gunpowder. His aim is perfect and his the target. The men cheer at their success, but then they realize that Leith has been gravely injured. Francis refuses to leave him behind but Leith insists that it's pointless. Francis asks Leith if there's anything for him in France—or anyone, rather. He says that there is a girl he loves back at court, but he's in no position to be with her. Francis begs to differ. Leith is a friend of the Dauphin now, so he may have more to offer his lady love when he gets back. Titles, land, money, and knighthood. Whatever awaits Leith, the prospect gives him the ability to summon his strength and carry on. Leith agrees to this and Francis helps him walk to safety.Leith is back at the French Court in Slaughter of Innocence. Leith approaches Francis about the land deed he was given as reward for what happened on the battlefield. Francis regrets not being able to give him a title and wishes his new friend luck with the girl he wants to impress, just as a member of the king's guard harasses a young woman in the hallway. Leith steps in and gets him to back off, but he has to reject her offer to get a drink due to his loyalty to Greer and eagerness to show her what he has to his name. He goes to see Greer in her room and tells her of how he's now a noble and the land he received from Francis. However, whatever her feelings for Leith may be, Greer tells him that he's the comfortable choice - someone who can't cover even 1/10 of her father's debts, someone who wouldn't be able to keep her sisters from being sold to the highest bidder. Before leaving for the naval spectacle, he tells her to take a risk and to trust love, for once in her life.
During the spectacle, Greer believed Leith was on the ship that exploded and was proven wrong when he was shown to have survived the naval spectacle stunt. In her room, he believes that they are about to give themselves to each other, she cannot marry him. He takes the words harshly, tearing into her about how he'll rise to become the man she thinks she needs and how he's to never be hers again, before storming off and leaving her emotional.
By the end of the episode, Leith meets the woman from earlier, whose name turns out to be Yvette, and attempts to buy her a drink, though she rejects the offer, saying she has to go meet a man.

Human Action
XXII. THE NONHUMAN ORIGINAL FACTORS OF PRODUCTION1. General Observations Concerning the Theory of Rent
In the frame of Ricardian economics the idea of rent was an attempt at a treatment of those problems which modern economics approaches by means of marginal-utility analysis.[1] Ricardo's theory appears rather unsatisfactory when judged from the point of view of present-day insight; there is no doubt that the method of the subjective-value theory is far superior. Yet the renown of the rent theory is well deserved; the care bestowed upon its initiation and perfection brought forth fine fruits. There is no reason for the history of economic thought to feel ashamed of the rent theory.[2]
The fact that land of different quality and fertility, i.e., yielding different returns per unit of input, is valued differently does not pose any special problem to modern economics. As far as Ricardo's theory refers to the gradation in the valuation and appraisement of pieces of land, it is completely comprehended in the modern theory of the prices of factors of production. It is not the content of the rent theory that is objectionable, but the exceptional position assigned to it in the complex of the economic system. Differential rent is a general phenomenon and is not limited to the determination of the prices of land. The sophisticated distinction between "rents" and "quasi-rents" is spurious. Land and the services it renders are dealt with in the same way as other factors of production and their services. Control of a better tool yields "rent" when compared with the returns of less suitable tools which must be utilized on account of the insufficient supply of more suitable ones. The abler and more zealous worker earns a "rent" when compared with the wages earned by his less skillful and less industrious competitors.
The problems which the rent concept was designed to solve were for the most part generated by the employment of inappropriate terms. The general notions as used in everyday language and mundane thought were not formed with regard to the requirements of praxeological and economic investigation. The early economists were mistaken in adopting them without scruple and hesitation. Only if one clings naively to general terms such as land or labor, is one puzzled by the question why land and labor are differently valued and appraised. He who does not allow himself to be fooled by mere words, but looks at a factor's relevance for the satisfaction of human wants, considers it a matter of course that different services are valued and appraised differently.
The modern theory of value and prices is not based on the classification of the factors of production as land, capital, and labor. Its fundamental distinction is between goods of higher and of lower orders, between producers' goods and consumers' goods. When it distinguishes within the class of factors of production the original (nature-given) factors from the produced factors of production (the intermediary products) and furthermore within the class of original factors the nonhuman (external) factors from the human factors (labor), it does not break up the uniformity of its reasoning concerning the determination of the prices of the factors of production. The law controlling the determination of the prices of the factors of production is the same with all classes and specimens of these factors. The fact that different services rendered by such factors are valued, appraised, and dealt with in a different way can only amaze people who fail to notice these differences in serviceableness. He who is blind to the merits of a painting may consider it strange that collectors should pay more for a painting of Velasquez than for a painting of a less gifted artist; for the connoisseur it is self-evident. It does not astonish the farmer that buyers pay higher prices and tenants higher leases for more fertile land than for less fertile. The only reason why the old economists were puzzled by this fact was that they operated with a general term land that neglects differences in productivity.
The greatest merit of the Ricardian theory of rent is the cognizance of the fact that the marginal land does not yield any rent. From this knowledge there is but one step to the discovery of the principle of valuational subjectivism. Yet blinded by the real cost notion neither the classical economists nor their epigones took this step.
While the differential-rent idea, by and large, can be adopted by the subjective-value theory, the second rent concept derived from Ricardian economics, viz., the residual-rent concept, must be rejected altogether. This residual-claimant idea is based on the notion of real or physical costs that do not make any sense in the frame of the modern explanation of the prices of factors of production. The reason why the price of Burgundy is higher than that of Chianti is not the higher price of the vineyards of Burgundy as against those of Tuscany. The causation is the other way around. Because people are ready to pay higher prices for Burgundy than for Chianti, winegrowers are ready to pay higher prices for the vineyards of Burgundy than for those of Tuscany.
In the eyes of the accountant profits appear as a share left over when all costs of production have been paid. In the evenly rotating economy such a surplus of the prices of products over and above costs could never appear. In the changing economy differences between the prices of the products and the sum of the prices that the entrepreneur has expended for the purchase of the complementary factors of production plus interest on the capital invested can appear in either direction, i.e., either as profit or as loss. These differences are caused by changes which arise in the prices of the products in the time interval. He who succeeds better than others in anticipating these changes in time and acts accordingly, reaps profits. He who fails in his endeavors to adjust his entrepreneurial ventures to the future state of the market is penalized by losses.
The main deficiency of Ricardian economics was that it was a theory of the distribution of a total product of a nation's joint efforts. Like the other champions of classical economics Ricardo failed to free himself from the Mercantilist image of the Volkswirtschaft. In his thought the problem of the determination of prices was subordinated to the problem of the distribution of wealth. The customary characterization of his economic philosophy as "that of the manufacturing middle classes of contemporary England" [3] misses the point. These English businessmen of the early nineteenth century were not interested in the total product of industry and its distribution. They were guided by the urge to make profits and to avoid losses.
Classical economics erred when it assigned to land a distinct place in its theoretical scheme. Land is, in the economic sense, a factor of production, and the laws determining the formation of the prices of land are the same that determine the formation of the prices of other factors of production. All peculiarities of the economic teachings concerning land refer to some peculiarities of the data involved.2. The Time Factor in Land Utilization
The starting point of the economic teachings concerning land is the distinction between two classes of original factors of production, viz., human and nonhuman factors. As the utilization of the nonhuman factors is as a rule connected with the power to utilize a piece of the earth, we speak of land when referring to them.[4]
In dealing with the economic problems of land, i.e., the nonhuman original factors of production, one must neatly separate the praxeological point of view from the cosmological point of view. It may make good sense for cosmology in its study of cosmic events to speak of permanency and of the conservation of mass and energy. If one compares the orbit within which human action is able to affect the natural environmental conditions of human life with the operation of natural entities, it is permissible to call the natural powers indestructible and permanent or — more precisely — safe against destruction by human action. For the great periods of time to which cosmology refers, soil erosion (in the broadest sense of the term) of such an intensity as can be effected by human interference is of no importance. Nobody knows today whether or not cosmic changes will in millions of years transform deserts and barren soil into land that from the point of view of our present-day knowledge will have to be described as extremely fertile and the most luxuriant tropical gardens into sterile land. Precisely because nobody can anticipate such changes nor venture to influence the cosmic events which possibly could bring them about, it is supererogatory to speculate about them in dealing with the problems of human action. [5]
The natural sciences may assert that those powers of the soil that condition its serviceableness for forestry, cattle breeding, agriculture, and water utilization regenerate themselves periodically. It may be true that even human endeavors deliberately directed toward the utmost devastation of the productive capacity of the earth's crust could at best succeed only with regard to small parts of it. But these facts do not strictly count for human action. The periodical regeneration of the soil's productive powers is not a rigid datum that would face man with a uniquely determined situation. It is possible to use the soil in such a way that this regeneration is slowed down and postponed or the soil's productive power either vanishes altogether for a definite period of time or can be restored only by means of a considerable input of capital and labor. In dealing with the soil man has to choose between various methods different from one another with regard to the preservation and regeneration of its productive power. No less than in any other branch of production the time factor enters also into the conduct of hunting, fishing, grazing, cattle breeding, plant growing, lumbering and water utilization. Here too man must choose between satisfaction in nearer and in more remote periods of the future. Here too the phenomenon of originary interest, entailed in every human action, plays its paramount role.
There are institutional conditions that cause the persons involved to prefer satisfaction in the nearer future and to disregard entirely or almost entirely satisfaction in the more distant future. If the soil is on the one hand not owned by individual proprietors and on the other hand all, or certain people favored by special privilege or by the actual state of affairs, are free to make use of it temporarily for their own benefit, no heed is paid to the future. The same is the case when the proprietor expects that he will be expropriated in the not too distant future. In both cases the actors are exclusively intent upon squeezing out as much as possible for their immediate advantage. They do not concern themselves about the temporally more remote consequences of their methods of exploitation. Tomorrow does not count for them. The history of lumbering, hunting, and fishing provides plenty of illustrative experience; but many examples can also be found in other branches of soil utilization.
From the point of view of the natural sciences, the maintenance of capital goods and the preservation of the powers of the soil belong to two entirely different categories. The produced factors of production perish sooner or later entirely in the pursuit of production processes, and piecemeal are transformed into consumers' goods which are eventually consumed. If one does not want to make the results of past saving and capital accumulation disappear, one must, apart from consumers' goods, also produce the amount of capital goods which is needed for the replacement of those worn out. If one were to neglect this, one would finally consume, as it were, the capital goods. One would sacrifice the future to the present; one would live in luxury today and be in want later.
But, it is often said, it is different with the powers of land. They cannot be consumed. Such a statement is meaningful, however, only from the point of view of geology. But from the geological point of view one could, or should, no less deny that factory equipment or a railroad can be "eaten up." The gravel and stones of a railroad's substructure and the iron and steel of the rails, bridges, cars, and engines do not perish in a cosmic sense. Only from the praxeological point of view is it permissible to speak of the consumption, the eating up, of a tool, a railroad, or a steel mill. In the same economic sense we speak of the consumption of the productive powers of the soil. In forestry, agriculture, and water utilization these powers are dealt with in the same way as other factors of production. With regard to the powers of the soil, too, the actors must choose between processes of production which render higher output at the expense of productivity in later periods and processes which do not impair future physical productivity. It is possible to extract so much from the soil that its later utilization will render smaller returns (per unit of the quantities of capital and labor employed) or practically no returns at all.
It is true that there are physical limits to the devastating powers of man. (These limits are sooner reached in lumbering, hunting, and fishing than in tilling the soil.) But this fact results only in a quantitative, not in a qualitative difference between capital decumulation and soil erosion.3. The Submarginal Land
The services a definite piece of land can render in a definite period of time are limited. If they were unlimited, men would not consider land a factor of production and an economic good. However, the quantity of soil available is so vast, nature is so prodigal, that land is still abundant. Therefore, only the most productive pieces of land are utilized. There is land which people consider — either with regard to its physical productivity or with regard to its location — as too poor to be worth cultivating. Consequently the marginal soil, i.e., the poorest soil cultivated, yields no rent in the Ricardian sense.[7] Submarginal land would be considered entirely worthless if one were not to appraise it positively in anticipation of its being utilized in later days.[8]
The fact that the market economy does not have a more ample supply of agricultural products is caused by the scarcity of capital and labor, not by a scarcity of cultivable land. An increase in the surface of land available would — other things being equal — increase the supply of cereals and meat only if the additional land's fertility exceeded that of the marginal land already previously cultivated. On the other hand, the supply of agricultural products would be increased by any increase in the amount of labor and capital available, provided the consumers do not consider another employment of the additional amount of capital and labor more appropriate to fill their most urgent wants. [9]
The useful mineral substances contained in the soil are limited in quantity. It is true that some of them are the outgrowth of natural processes which are still going on and increasing the existing deposits. However, the slowness and length of these processes makes them insignificant for human action. Man must take into account that the available deposits of these minerals are limited. Every single mine or oil source is exhaustible; many of them are already exhausted. We may hope that new deposits will be discovered and that technological procedures will be invented which will make it possible to utilize deposits which today cannot be exploited at all or only at unreasonable costs. We may also assume that the further progress of technological knowledge will enable later generations to utilize substances which cannot be utilized today. But all these things do not matter for the present-day conduct of mining and oil drilling. The deposits of mineral substances and their exploitation are not characterized by features which would give a particular mark to human action dealing with them. For catallactics the distinction between soil used in agriculture and that used in mining is merely a distinction of data.
Although the available quantities of these mineral substances are limited, and although we may academically concern ourselves with the possibility that they will be entirely exhausted one day, acting men do not consider these deposits rigidly limited. Their activities take into account the fact that definite mines and wells will become exhausted, but they do not pay heed to the fact that at an unknown later date all the deposits of certain minerals may come to an end. For to present-day action the supply of these substances appears to be so abundant that one does not venture to exploit all their deposits to the full extent which the state of technological knowledge permits. The mines are utilized only as far as there is no more urgent employment available for the required quantities of capital and labor. There are therefore submarginal deposits that are not utilized at all.
In every mine operated the extent of the production is determined by the relation between the prices of the products and those of the required nonspecific factors of production.4. The Land as Standing Room
The employment of land for the location of human residences, workshops, and means of transportation withdraws pieces of soil from other employments.
The particular place which older theories attributed to urban site rent need not here concern us. It is not especially noteworthy that people pay higher prices for land they value more for housing than for land which they value less. It is a matter of fact that for workshops, warehouses, and railroad yards people prefer locations which reduce costs of transportation, and that they are ready to pay higher prices for such land in accordance with the economies expected.
Land is also used for pleasure grounds and gardens, for parks and for the enjoyment of the grandeur and beauty of nature. With the development of the love of nature, this very characteristic feature of "bourgeois" mentality, the demand for such enjoyments increased enormously. The soil of the high mountain chains, once merely considered a barren dreariness of rocks and glaciers, is today highly appreciated as the source of the most lofty pleasures.
From time immemorial access to these spaces has been free to everybody. Even if the land is owned by private individuals, the owners as a rule have not the right to close it to tourists and mountain-climbers or to ask an entrance fee. Whoever has the opportunity to visit these areas, has the right to enjoy all their grandeur, and to consider them his own, as it were. The nominal owner does not derive any advantage from the satisfaction his property gives to the visitors. But this does not alter the fact that this land serves human well-being and is appreciated accordingly. The ground is subject to an easement that entitles everybody to pass along and to camp on it. As no other utilization of the area concerned is possible, this servitude completely exhausts all the advantages the proprietor could reap from his ownership. Since the particular services which these rocks and glaciers can render are practically inexhaustible, do not wear out, and do not require any input of capital and labor for their conservation, this arrangement does not bring about those consequences which appeared wherever it was applied to lumbering, hunting, and fishing grounds.
If, in the neighborhood of these mountain chains, the space available for the construction of shelters, hotels, and means of transportation (e.g., rack railroads) is limited, the owners of these scarce pieces of soil can sell or rent them on more propitious terms and thus divert to themselves a part of the advantages the tourists reap from the free accessibility of the peaks. If this is not the case, the tourists enjoy all these advantages gratuitously.
5. The Prices of Land
In the imaginary construction of the evenly rotating economy buying and selling of the services of definite pieces of land does not differ at all from buying and selling the services of other factors of production. All these factors are appraised according to the services they will render in various periods of the future, due allowance being made for time preference. For the marginal land (and, of course, for the submarginal land) no price is paid at all. Rent-bearing land (i.e., land that, compared with the marginal land, bears a higher output per unit of input of capital and labor) is appraised in accordance with the degree of its superiority. Its price is the sum of all its future rents, each of them discounted at the rate of originary interest.[10]
In the changing economy people buying and selling land take due account of expected changes in the market prices for the services rendered by the soil. Of course, they may err in their expectations; but this is another thing. They try to anticipate to the best of their abilities future events that may alter the market data and they act in accordance with these opinions. If they believe that the annual net yield of the piece of land concerned will rise, the price will be higher than it would have been in the absence of such expectations. This is, for instance, the case with suburban land in the neighborhood of cities growing in population or with forests and arable land in countries in which pressure groups are likely to succeed in raising, by means of tariffs, the prices of timber and cereals. On the other hand, fears concerning the total or partial confiscation of the net yield of land tend to lower the prices of land. In everyday business language people speak of the "capitalization" of the rent and observe that the rate of capitalization is different with different classes of land and varies even within the same class with different pieces of soil. This terminology is rather inexpedient as it misrepresents the nature of the process.
In the same way in which buyers and sellers of land take into account anticipated future events that will reduce the net return, they deal with taxes. Taxes levied upon land reduce its market price to the extent of the discounted amount of their future burden. The introduction of a new tax of this kind which is likely not to be abolished results in an immediate drop in the market price of the pieces of land concerned. This is the phenomenon that the theory of taxation calls amortization of taxes.
In many countries the owners of land or of certain estates enjoyed special political legal privileges or a great social prestige. Such institutions too can play a role in the determination of the prices of land.
The Myth of the Soil
Romanticists condemn the economic theories concerning land for their utilitarian narrow-mindedness. Economists, they say, look upon land from the point of view of the callous speculator who degrades all eternal values to terms of money and profit. Yet, the glebe is much more than a mere factor of production. It is the inexhaustible source of human energy and human life. Agriculture is not simply one branch of production among many other branches. It is the only natural and respectable activity of man, the only dignified condition of a really human existence. It is iniquitous to judge it merely with regard to the net returns to be squeezed out of the soil. The soil not only bears the fruits that nourish our body; it produces first of all the moral and spiritual forces of civilization. The cities, the processing industries, and commerce are phenomena of depravity and decay; their existence is parasitic; they destroy what the ploughman must create again and again.
Thousands of years ago, when fishing and hunting tribesmen began to cultivate the soil, romantic reverie was unknown. But if there had lived romanticists in those ages, they would have eulogized the lofty moral values of the hunt and would have stigmatized soil cultivation as a phenomenon of depravity. They would have reproached the ploughman for desecrating the soil that the gods had given to man as a hunting ground and for degrading it to a means of production.
In the preromantic ages in his actions no one considered the soil as anything other than a source of human well-being, a means to promote welfare. The magic rites and observances concerning the soil aimed at nothing else than improvement of the soil's fertility and increase in the quantity of fruits to be harvested. These people did not seek the unio mystica with the mysterious powers and forces hidden in the soil. All they aimed at was bigger and better crops. They resorted to magic rituals and adjurations because in their opinion this was the most efficient method of attaining the ends sought. Their sophisticated progeny erred when they interpreted these ceremonies from an "idealistic" point of view. A real peasant does not indulge in ecstatic babble about the soil and its mysterious powers. For him land is a factor of production, not an object of sentimental emotions. He covets more land because he desires to increase his income and to improve his standard of living. Farmers buy and sell land and mortgage it; they sell the produce of land and become very indignant if the prices are not as high as they want them to be.
Love of nature and appreciation of the beauties of the landscape were foreign to the rural population. The inhabitants of the cities brought them to the countryside. It was the city-dwellers who began to appreciate the land as nature, while the countrymen valued it only from the point of view of its productivity for hunting, lumbering, crop raising and cattle breeding. From time immemorial the rocks and glaciers of the Alps were merely waste land in the eyes of the mountaineers. Only when the townsfolk ventured to climb the peaks, and brought money into the valleys, did they change their minds. The pioneers of mountain-climbing and skiing were ridiculed by the indigenous population until they found out that they could derive gain from this eccentricity.
Not shepherds, but sophisticated aristocrats and city-dwellers were the authors of bucolic poetry. Daphnis and Chloe are creations of fancies far removed from earthy concerns. No less removed from the soil is the modern political myth of the soil. It did not blossom from the moss of the forests and the loam of the fields, but from the pavements of the cities and the carpets of the salons. The farmers make use of it because they find it a practical means of obtaining political privileges which raise the prices of their products and of their farms.
NOTES:[1] It was, says Fetter (Encyclopaedia of the Social Sciences, XIII, 291), "a garbled marginality theory."
[2] Cf. Amonn Ricard als Begründer der theoretischen Nationalökonomie (Jena, 1924), pp. 54 ff.
[3] Cf., for example, Haney, History of Economic Thought (rev. ed. New York, 1927), p. 275.
[4] Legal provisions concerning the separation of the right of hunting, fishing, and extracting mineral deposits from the other rights of the owner of a piece of land are of no interest for catallactics. The term land as used in catallactics includes also expanses of water.
[5] thus also the problem of entropy stands outside the sphere of praxeological meditation.
[6] Ricardo, Principles of Political Economy and Taxation, p. 34.
[7] There are areas in which practically every corner is cultivated or otherwise utilized. But this is the outcome of institutional conditions barring the inhabitants of these regions from access to more fertile unused soil.
[8] The appraisal of a piece of soil must not be confused with the appriasal of the improvements, i.e., the irremovable and inconvertible results of the investment of capital and labor that facilitate its utilization and raise future outputs per unit and future inputs.
[9] These observations, of course, refer only to conditions in which there are no institutional barriers to the mobility of capital and labor.
[10] There is need to remember again that the imaginary construction of the evenly rotating economy cannot be carried consistently to its ultimate logical consequences (see above, p. 248). With regard to the problems of land one must stress two points: First, that in the frame of this imaginary construction, characterized by the absence of changes in the conduct of affairs, there is no room for the buying and selling of land. Second, that in order to integrate into this construction mining and oil drilling we must ascribe to the mines and oil wells a permanent character and must disregard the possibility that any of the operated mines and wells could be exhausted or even undergo a change in the quantity of output or of current input required.

Spring Walk-Throughs - Roofing Tops the List
by G. Leonard West, LS West, LLC
Spring has arrived and there is much work to be done. Roof inspections are at the top of the list. Along with your clipboard, bring a set of binoculars and a camera with a good close-up lens. Please be careful. A safe inspection is imperative. An experienced professional should inspect roof areas/items that cannot be observed from the ground or a safe area of a flat roof.
Let's get started
When you establish your repair list, be aware of any warranties that may exist for your roof system. There may be repairs (wind damage/leaks) that are covered by the workmanship warranty. Address repairs promptly to minimize any resulting damage. Again, be safe and enjoy the spring season.

My current employer has recently applied for my h1b petition and got notification regarding the selection in lottery and it was applied in premium processing. Hopefully, within next two weeks I will know about the approval decision for the new h1b but as far as I know that it won't be activated till October 1st. My current status is F1-OPT and the initial period is getting expired on June 30, 2014. If my h1b petition is approved, I know that I won't need to apply for OPT extension as I will be automatically be eligible to work during cap-gap extension. However, my question is whether I can switch to any other company in the mean time before October 1st, 2014 assuming that the h1b petition will be approved in next two weeks.
Yes, a new employer can file a petition in your behalf.

PHILADELPHIA - The Quakers finished their second weekend of play in strong fashion, as two title were captured at the St. Joseph's Invitational while another was won at the USTA Collegiate Invitational on Sunday afternoon
At the St. Joseph's Invitational, freshman Zach Katz captured the No. 1 singles title by first defeating Delaware's Courtney Scott 6-3, 6-2 in the semifinal. In thefinal, Katz had to come from behind after losing the opening set in a tiebreaker. He was able to rebound in the second set, 6-2, and prevailed 10-6 in the third set tiebreaker to defeat the Hawks' Alex Veronis for the title.
In doubles play, the duo of Katz and classmate Ivan Turudic took care of Drexel's Nikoloz Kurdatze and Manu Bajpai 8-6 to take home the No. 1 doubles title. The freshmen were up 5-1 and looked poised to take the match with relative ease, but Drexel fought back hard, eventually pulling to within 7-6, before Turudic was able to serve out the match for Penn.
Head coach Nik DeVore was pleased with his underclassmen's play. "This was a good test for our two freshmen against some talented upperclassmen from Drexel, said DeVore. "I was really happy with how strong our team stayed mentally once Drexel mounted a comeback."
At Flushing Meadows, the team of Jason Lin and Jason Magnes took home the Flight D doubles title by defeating Princeton's duo of Richardson and Yegya-Raman, 8-4. In the Flight E singles final, sophomore Robert Wong fought hard but fell just short against Cameron Ghorbani of Dartmouth 6-4, 3-6, 6-4. In the Flight F singles final senior Zach Gorn lost to Alex De Chatellus of Dartmouth 6-2, 6-3.
Next up for the Red and Blue is the ITA All-America tournament in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Oct. 3-9, where Senior Hicham Laalej will compete in the qualifying draw. The ITA
All-America tournament is the largest and most competitive college tennis tournament in the country. A portion of the team will also be competing in the Columbia Invitational Oct. 8-10.

What the hell was he thinking. I guess he though he could snap that plastic bag and just ride his bike through it. Instead he caught it with his neck and ended up hitting his head on the concrete. This kid needs some physics lessons asap.
For every action, there`s an equal and opposite reaction, Dumbass meet ground, ground meet Dumbass.
Future moped rider.
the next string he runs into in life will be a G string
If your going to be stupid you have to be tuff.
a little faster it would of been funnier...
And now he rides the short bus
i got to give him credit for getting to the finish line
snap crackle pop Bike krispies....
Clotheslined by plastic, hilarious.
Was that industrial plastic wrap which was used to clothes line the bike riding victim?
Well, he crossed the finish line, and he's finished.
I did that once running from the cops. I was hopping fences and hauling ass through backyards when my face met a volleyball net. I was fuckin booking like Forrest gump to. Almost made dumbest criminals lol.
kid runs up and says....."can i have your bike if your necks broke dude"

By Rob W. Hart/ There's this saying, that you shouldn't post anything on a social networking site that you wouldn't want your grandmother to see. I'm going to take it a step further: Don't post anything a prospective agent/publisher/reader would hold against you.
I don't think I need to remind you how important sites like Twitter are for marketing and networking. It's sort of like the Wild West – cool, mysterious, but also sometimes dangerous and if you're not careful you'll catch dysentery.
If you're here, there's a good chance you know the basics about Twitter, so we'll skip the introductions. Instead, I want to talk about the intricacies of tweeting.
Here are the top 10 mistakes writers make on Twitter, and how to avoid them:
1. Sharing negative news: I was eliminated in the first round of the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award contest, but I never wrote about it (until now, oops). Say an agent I queried checks my Twitter feed and sees it. He or she might think, "If it wasn't good enough for them, it's not good enough for me."
2. Over-sharing about the process: This relates to the first point but deserves to be broken out. If you're querying and you get rejected, don't say it. Don't even think about naming the agent/publisher. Don't name names in general. The inside baseball of the process is best left unsaid. Wait for your memoir to do it.
3. Being humble to the point of disparaging yourself: Self-deprecation is not as adorable as you think it is. Or, there's a difference between realistic and humble. Yes, we're all students and we all want to learn, but be confident. Own what you do.
4. Maniac tweeting: Unless you're building an image as the next Hunter S. Thompson, keep it clean and concise. Remember, you are being judged on everything you write. 'Shock value' is synonymous to 'cheap shot'.
5. Not minding your 'mentions': I've got a really good friend who sometimes mentions me in tweets that are wildly inappropriate. It's fun, and I love him, but I still delete them. I'm not endorsing censorship, but I am promoting a professional front.
6. Not publishing helpful content: People aren't going to follow you to hear about your sandwich. They're going to follow you for content. The occasional silly tweet is OK – you are not a robot – but make an effort to tweet content that people will want to read.
7. Ovetweeting: Do you often lose followers? Is it often when you tweet 17 times in a day about your blog post? That's why. I unfollowed someone because they tweeted massive lists of people to follow on Writer's Wednesday, and it took up my whole feed.
8. Auto-following and Auto-DMing: Unless you are super famous, and maybe even then, you don't need to do this. People who catch it will think you're insincere, and you don't need to follow everyone who follows you.
9. Not engaging people: It's called social networking for a reason. Don't just retweet a few links and call it a day. Talk to people. Don't feel bad if they don't reply back. But be nice and make friends.
10. Not learning the lingo: I'll be #amwriting this as my next entry, but you need to know which hashtags are going to lead people to your doorstep. And knowing the common abbreviations helps too, because it'll really save you on your 140-character limit if you want to talk about your MC in the your WIP.

The Los Angeles Dodgers could be preparing to make some room in their crowded outfield by finally moving Matt Kemp.
Dave Stewart, Kemp's agent, suggested last week that his client could be joining a new team this season when he said Kemp wants to be an every-day center fielder and wouldn't be opposed to a trade if the Dodgers couldn't make that happen.
It appears that plan likely will come to fruition as Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reported Friday "the Dodgers are making calls, and rival executives have the feeling the Dodgers are ready to move on, if possible."
One person who is ready to move on, reportedly, is Kemp.
"Eight years is a long time to be in one place," Stewart told Heyman by phone. "Sometimes change is good. This might be the time to change."
According to Heyman, five teams are interested in acquiring the 29-year-old outfielder's services, or at the very least have reached out to the Dodgers and explored the idea.
Kemp has struggled to return to his 2011 National League MVP runner-up form. He's batting .268 with eight home runs and 38 RBIs this season — a far cry from three years ago, when he hit .324 with 39 home runs and 126 RBIs.
Kemp still has $107 million remaining on his contract beyond this season.

The physics of sound are much more understood than most realize. Even in medical uses that are
common like using specialized ultrasound to break up kidney stones and such. Likewise, dolphins, killer whales use sonar to locate food and use the destructive aspect. Sonar to kill, used by certain sea creatures and using sonar in war(subs).
I am familiar with medical applications up to an MRI and the principles of resonance. All cells have charges and all cells have specific traits of resonance(spin) that can be manipulated with the frequencies we apply for all kinds of things.
In fMRI we can manipulate those cells to help form our images. We can decipher function. We can administer treatments via ´tags´ and so on. These are newer applications. Likewise, all cells having frequency are susceptible to it. It can be used for various ends. Of course, too much prevention causes anxiety for most docs-bread and butter...
There was a man years ago, now deceased named Royal Rife and he created a frequency generator that he used to ´kill´ different viruses or say cancer. He was hailed as a great inventor and many docs honored him as having created a machine that could attack cells on a basic level. Well, of course, the AMA and several scientific journals decided to blacklist him. Again, back to bread and butter. I believe his device is quite useful and could lead to great success. I do NOT believe he had the end of ALL disease but his invention is available-and I want one.
Tuning forks are used to tune a piano-likewise the celss in your body will key to their specific frequency when the sound resonates through the organ. The heart and the ear entrain to one another and this is being examined more. There is much more to this that is already available and even more greater things that will soon be understood.
Even colors are on a specific frequency-hmmmm
Thx for all the great comments.
Have a great Halloween and don´t get too crazy.

I'll admit, the ladies here at Kennedy Blue have a slight manicure obsession and we love trying all the newest trends that we find on blogs and Pinterest boards. We're constantly scouring the internet in search of cute nail designs for weddings and wanted to show off some of our favorite glitter nail polish ideas for that special day! As much as we love a classic French mani or a subtle nude nail, why not add an extra burst of sparkle to your bridal or bridesmaid look with a stylish and budget-friendly DIY manicure?
1. Bold and Breathtaking: This diagonal design is a quick and easy DIY manicure for the stylish and outgoing bride. Want it for a bridesmaid look? Try a soft neutral on one side and a bold color on the other to perfectly complement your bridesmaid dress or flowers.
Get the look: Paint all of your nails a solid nude color. After the polish has completely dried, cover half of your nail (at any angle you want) with a piece of tape. Paint over the area with your glitter polish to cover the exposed nail. Once the polish has dried, slowly peel the tape off to reveal your look!
2. Girly and Glam: We're all about a great accent nail, and adding just a touch of sparkle to the bridesmaids' manicures makes for a super fun and girly look. We chose a color that complemented our Kennedy Blue bridesmaid dresses in coral, and accented the ring finger with vibrant gold glitter.
Get the look: Paint all of your nails one solid coral color. Once the polish has dried, paint over your entire accent nail with a glitter polish. You may need multiple coats of the glitter to get the dense sparkle that you desire.
3. Romantic and Whimsical: This gradient glitter nail polish idea is a stunning choice for your big day. Whether you use a pretty neutral palette or a pop of colorful glitter, this look can be worn by the bride or bridesmaids.
Get the look: Paint all of your nails a solid pearl-white color. Once the polish has completely dried, take your gold glitter polish and apply it heavily to the base of your nail, lightly pulling it upward. Apply 1-2 more coats of the glitter to the base of your nail to create a condensed, sparkly look.
Now that we've shown you three of our favorite glitter looks, we dare you to try them yourself. Leave us a comment with pictures of your DIY manicures or send them to firstname.lastname@example.com. Happy Mani-Monday!

Taking Your Measurements
For the most accurate measurements, do not measure over your clothing. Your measurements should be taken while wearing undergarments similar to the ones you will wear with your dress. The measuring tape shouldn't be pulled too tight or have too much slack, and should always be parallel with the floor.
**Wedding apparel is typically sized differently than retail clothing, so keep in mind that it's not uncommon to find yourself requiring alterations.
Bust size: Wrap the tape around your back and under your arms at the fullest part of your bust (not underneath the bust).
Waist size: While standing up straight, bend at the waist to one side. Take the measurement where the natural crease happens in your side. This should be a few inches above your belly button.
Hip size: Standing with your feet together, wrap the tape around the fullest part of your hips and butt to get this measurement.
Choosing your correct size
Compare these three measurements to the Kennedy Blue size chart above. It is very important that you order the largest size that corresponds to your measurements. For example, if your bust measures 40.5" (size 12), your waist measures 31" (size 10) and your hips measure 41.5" (size 8), we advise that you order a size 12, and get your dress altered down to custom fit your body. Ordering anything smaller than a size 12 would not fit in the bust area. Please note: Our bridal gown size chart is different than the bridesmaids sizing and is listed below.

Mister C replied to Mister C's topic in Any Other Business / Any Other SportsCheers both. I'm becoming more convinced that a nearly new approved used car with a loan is most economical. Plus keeping it for 5 years!
Mister C posted a topic in Any Other Business / Any Other SportsI've never had a new car and now I'd quite like one. I've been a heavy saver all my life and have a number of investments which are doing ok at the moment. So after a bit of research I'd like the new Land Rover Discovery Sport. When I say new I'd buy a nearly new to save on the immediate depreciation so I reckon I'm looking at £32k for the one I want. Does anyone have any recommendations on the most efficient way of paying for this? I'm currently leaning towards taking a bank loan which are as low as 2.9% atm. I have a good credit score so it shouldn't be a problem getting this rate. I'm not so keen on PCPs as I won't own the car at the end after paying a significant amount and that doesn't feel right to me. I could cash in some investments but it seems that 2.9% is a very good rate to be borrowing at. Anyone have any advice? Is there anything I'm missing? Thanks in advance p.s I know there are many other possibly better ways I could spend my money but I'm not asking for advice on that
Mister C replied to Red Willow's topic in Any Other Business / Any Other SportsLate evening game of golf. Taken on my phone
I think that one depends upon League positions of the opponents. If both those team are in the bottom two you'd probably get the same home attendance with the variable being the number of fans Hunslet bring.
Sorry but I don't know. Whitehaven is a world away from here!
I am a lapsed Barrow fan. I want to take my 7 year old Daughter to watch the event that is Toronto coming to town. I'd pay for two seats in the main stand. she'd probably want a scarf and something to eat. It has reawoken my interest in the club so I'm a bit disappointed to see they are not coming. Sad to say none of the other fixtures excite me and that's as an RL fan first (expansionist) and Barrow fan second. I would probably also have dragged some others along for Toronto (the friends I drag along to the Grand Final) and personally if the club made enough of a fuss I think they would have received a much improved gate We laugh at RU's event crowd but it happens for us too.

Zola Is Not Impressed, and Other NewsBy Dan Piepenbring
- One nice thing about exile is the novelty. Oh, the places you'll go, the people you'll meet … as you're forced out of your way of life and into a strange, foreign land! In 1898, amid the Dreyfus affair and that famous J'accuse fiasco, Émile Zola thought it might be wise to leave Paris for a while. So he exiled himself to London, where he found many wondrous new things to complain about: "At the age of fifty-seven, equipped only with a nightshirt wrapped in a newspaper, Zola made his way to the coast and boarded a boat to England … [He] devoted himself to brooding on all the elements of English life that mystified and upset him. Shirts were 'too short.' Roads weren't 'as good as French ones.' Houses were disgracefully lacking in shutters and featured windows that didn't close properly. Food got 'more and more revolting' by the day. English women were guilty of 'carelessness' (witness the number of hairpins to be found on the city's streets); of spending too much time cycling; and of being insufficiently enthusiastic about breastfeeding ('that is hardly my conception of a mother's duty towards her infant, whatever be her station in life')."
- If you're going to put yourself through the technocratic hell that is the Consumer Electronics Show, you should at least make sure you're not compos mentis beforehand. Erin Gloria Ryan found this the perfect occasion to try LSD for the first time: "Five or six androids on tiny wheels, maybe three feet tall, turned and blinked in unison on a smooth white surface. On their chests were screens displaying a cartoon heart, like a child's drawing of a heart. The hearts were beating. Shitty pop music thrummed. One robot, separated from the dance crew, turned and blinked alone. I felt strongly that the robot on the outside was ostracized because she was too fat, or because she'd hit on one of the dance team robot's boyfriends. Either way, she was not sitting with the cool robots at lunch. I felt really bad for her. I couldn't look her in the plastic eyes."

The Insurance Industry and Innovation
Posted by Ravi Kumar S. (View Profile | View All Posts) at 6:15 AM
Words like innovative and nimble aren't what immediately come to mind when describing the insurance industry. Perhaps, that's because the business of insurance runs on a very basic premise: An army of actuaries utilize algorithms to determine rates for policyholders. If something such as a natural disaster occurs and the companies must pay out on some policies, those companies simply adjust the rates they charge to everyone else. So insurers typically take very highly risk-measured decisions.
In a business as predictable as this one, you wouldn't imagine that bold, imaginative thinking could ever be a part of the corporate fabric. Yet a group from had an extremely enlightening series of meetings with insurance company executives lately. We spoke of how they can use digital tools that ultimately will aid their customers and enrich their bottom lines. Not surprisingly, they listened to what we had to say.
For one, insurers are faced with wafer-thin operating margins despite all the work their actuaries do to re-adjust rates. That's where technology comes into the picture and gives companies advantages that they never knew existed. Not only can insurers use technological solutions to understand risks better; they can price products more competitively in an effort to connect with customers. Add to this situation the advent of Big Data in the insurance sector and these staid companies are making more impactful decisions than ever before.
For centuries the insurance world has been dominated by agencies. But an alternate, low-touch digital channel is evolving and so is the ability of insurers to create an optimal sales mix. Sometimes that mix calls for a balance between the traditional agencies and contemporary digital channels. The digital agenda is so important for certain insurance companies that you now see it as a line item in most annual reports.
Of course, these developments benefit consumers, many of whom are in emerging markets and are not yet policyholders. The emerging markets are an exciting opportunity for Western insurance companies. Extending their reach globally means they must leverage mobile devices and scale existing legacy systems and processes to cope with the scale and volumes of the emerging markets. There's another consideration: Emerging markets are susceptible to high risk and there is naturally going to be an extensive focus on fraud management and analytics. So compliance in a highly regulated Insurance market will continue to have its usual budget allocations.
Nobody ever said expansion beyond North America and Western Europe would be easy, however. The muted investment returns and high penetration levels in those two Western markets are forcing insurers to look beyond them into the emerging Asian-Pacific markets. That kind of expansion will lead insurers to spend heavily on CRM systems because the focus shifts to acquiring customers in under-penetrated markets.
After we met with those insurance company executives, I came away impressed with their clarity of thought and the focus around transforming their corporations. Not only do they understand global issues. They all share a sense of humility and penchant for hard work. These are the kind of qualities that businesses - no matter how old and predictable - exhibit when they begin an exciting innovation journey.

Once again, we have a little something for the addicts of spy photos and for everyone that loves to know things in advance – an image has leaked, revealing a small part of what may be Sprint's inventory notes. This time, it gives information about the Instinct S30 Mini, which is by now a real media star. According to what is written, the stylish device should be available at Brightpoint on April 15 in two color solutions – Graphite and Bronze, at a price of $449.99. Just four days later, on April 19, Sprint will have the Mini all wrapped up and ready for general distribution. At the same time, the LG Lotus will come up with a new Red version, just to make it look a bit more seductive in a lady's hands (ha, a good one, wasn't it?). The little calm is said to show up for "Preferred Retailers and Exclusives only" at $299.99.
Keep in mind that this is a leaked image and the provided information may not be true.

I have VZW, and my wife totally thinks the lotus is a "cute" phone. We both have the Vogue, so she is addicted to smartphones now, but if she wanted a "dumbphone" she would totaly dig the lotus.

I got the permalip implants put into my lips. This is the 3rd time I have had the bottom one put in.
The top one healed perfect. No matter what kind of stitches he uses, one side or the other will not close up on the bottom. What could be causing this and what can I do? Could the implant be too long?

{{ voteCount >= 0 ? '+' + (voteCount + 1) : (voteCount + 1) }}
Thank you for asking about your Permalip implants
- It sounds as though there is a chronic infection where the lips will not heal.
- If so, the implant must be removed and left out for 3 months and then a new one placed.

It's amazing - several group hack it to get a whole oxidative physical exercise retributory patch preparing dinner! Back and forth, fund and off - I get all in a moment ago watching! Today, pay curiosity to the way you shift spell you fry. How frequent present do you cross the physical property of your kitchen in one evening? Do you find yourself doing squats to get at your pans? Stretches to get your dishes? Are you proper a best hurdler, track and field complete the dog's plate both incident you go from white goods to stove? All it takes is a few account to re-arrange your kitchen storage, redeeming you a lot of circumstance and liveliness in the longitudinal run.
We all cognize how terrifying it is to lug an point out of the fridge, simply to locate that it has mutated. However, we normally mistakenly bamboozle NON-PERISHABLE near INDESTRUCTIBLE. Even Twinkies have an expiration date! Do yourself a favor present - go finished your cabinets and throw out thing that is old, rancid, stale, or pilary. And as you purge, be in no doubt to livelihood a buying inventory of items you call for to renew. It's likewise not a bad hypothesis to variety improvement out the room a part of your day-to-day "home maintenance" mechanical. You may use these diet "life expectancies" as a go ahead - but once in doubt, material possession your gut (or your nose!):
- Canned foods (2-5 time of life)
- Flours (3-6 months)
- Cereal (6 months)
- Grains / Legumes (1 time period)
- Pasta (1 year)
- Dried Herbs (6 months)
- Spices (6-12 months)
- Condiments (1 period of time)
Every implement or provide that you use tends to slump into one of 5 categories - cleaning, supplies storage, cooking, supplies preparation, and portion. The aspiration is to maintain your outfit close the correct center, making it easier for you to carry out your kitchen duties.
- Your CLEANING facility consists of the sink, dishwasher, and trashcan. Of course, soap, disinfectants, sponges, and rags should be hold on in a cabinet in the neighbourhood.
- The kitchen range is primal to any COOKING activities, so sustenance utensils, hot sheets, pots, and pans inside natural conquer. If you can, too determination the nonparticulate radiation and kitchen appliance into this realm.
- Your FOOD PREPARATION midway should be positioned essential a sizeable space (countertop or coral isle). You will in all likelihood poorness to stock knives, a article board, commixture bowls, blender, substance processor, measuring cups, and remaining associated implements push to by.
- FOOD STORAGE, on the opposite hand, will center on the white goods - and should cover legroom for Tupperware containers, recorded foods, dry goods, and fresh fruits or vegetables.
- Your SERVING halfway may be separate between the room and feeding realm. It is repeatedly easier to retail store small indefinite amount dishes, linens, and candles close by the tabular array - patch flatware, glasses, and plates frequently carry out powerfully somebody to the plumbing fixture (it's easier to put them away after wash).
Now, let's face up to your cabinets and underpants. Limit yourself to one collection of gear per speciality. That may expect golf shot transcribed produce on one support and boxes on another - or abidance dishes detached from specs. Organize your kitchen in a way that makes denotation to you, but try to spurn storing supplies and cookware in cooperation in the said article of furniture.
Storage appurtenances can too do wonders with your on-line holding spaces. Stepped shelving makes it easier to see items unseeable in the rear of a cavernous furniture - and drawer drafting instrument will comfort support your utensils underneath dictate. Remember that rectangular storage containers give somebody a lift up smaller amount scope than curved ones - and pot lids / level cooking utensil are much getatable once feint up in a unsloped rack. Finally, don't forget the oodles way to go around "dead" spaces into expedient holding - plus fallback racks, wall pegs, apathetic susans, cup hooks, stacking bins, hanging storage, and space-saving appliances.
One concluding kindness in your room is motion from one "center" to the adjacent. Some grouping averment that you should be able to range every key contraption in one stair. That seems extremely impractical, very if you have a highly large-scale room. However, you can brand your beingness a bit easier if you hold natural event in consciousness. Try showing your room as a polygon - SINK to STOVE to REFRIGERATOR. Your goal is to maintain those paths clear! If you have to escape waste material cans, usage bins, or any new obstacles to get support and forth, you are doing too by a long way donkey work.

Clinton pledges no prez run in 2004
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) - Hillary Rodham Clinton pledged Wednesday that if elected to the Senate she would not run for president in four years. The first lady also said she hoped the time Juan Miguel Gonzalez spends in the United State will persuade him to remain with his son in this country.
Clinton again defended the government's armed removal of 6-year-old Elian from his Miami relatives, saying it was ''regrettable, but I understand the necessity for it.''
Pressed about her earlier pledge not to run for president in four years, even if Republicans win the White House this year, Clinton said: ''I am going to serve my six-year term as senator. I owe it to the people of New York.''
The first lady also said that while she was a supporter of abortion rights, she could support legislation that would outlaw what critics call partial-birth abortion except in cases where the woman's health or life was at stake. President Clinton has vetoed the partial birth bans twice in the past, each time saying he would sign a bill if it provided exemptions for both the life and the health of the mother.
Clinton's comments came at the end of a long day on the campaign trail in which she went from cow country to a college campus, calling for tax changes to help keep family farms in the family.
Clinton stopped at a more than 100-year-old dairy farm and called for increasing the estate tax exemption for family businesses to $1.75 million. It now is $600,000.
''You ought to be able to leave your land and the bulk of your fortunes to your children and not to the government,'' she told more than 100 people at the farm 35 miles east of Buffalo.
Also Wednesday, Clinton said she had accepted invitations for two televised debates with rival Rudolph Giuliani in the fall.
But the first lady did not commit to a third proposed debate. Clinton and Giuliani have been invited by New York's Independence Party to a forum Saturday in Buffalo. Giuliani has accepted while Clinton said Wednesday she was still ''working it out.''
The Independence Party - the New York wing of the Reform Party - is in the midst of a court battle over its leadership. One faction supports conservative Pat Buchanan and the other adamantly opposes his presidential candidacy.
New York allows major party candidates to count votes received on other parties' ballot lines, which can make the difference in close races.
However, Clinton said Wednesday that she was concerned that pursuing the ballot line of the Independence Party could put her on a ticket led by Buchanan.
''I have a very big difference with him on nearly every issue you can imagine,'' Clinton told reporters after a speech to Democrats in Salamanca, where she stopped on her way to Buffalo for the televised town hall forum.
Juleanna Glover Weiss, a spokeswoman for Giuliani's campaign, said the mayor has made it clear he wants additional debates.
Giuliani was in Manhattan, where he called a reporter a ''jerk'' outside City Hall as a group of English schoolchildren looked on.
Giuliani had been chatting with the children about New York's tourist attractions when the reporter interrupted and asked whether new City Hall security measures were similar to any the children had seen in London.
''Just don't pay any attention to him,'' Giuliani told the children, who were about 11 years old. ''We have embarrassments in America. He's one of them.''
Some of the children seemed confused by the exchange; none of them said anything.
The object of Giuliani's ire, Rafael Martinez Alequin, publishes The Free Press, a tabloid that is highly critical of the Giuliani administration.
The city installed airport-style metal detectors at City Hall on Tuesday. The move was in response to a federal judge's order that the city provide greater public access to the area.
