George Nicholson 1760-1825
(text from the 1st edition, 1883 )
Among the least known, but none the less the most estimable, of the advocates of the rights of the oppressed species and the heralds od the dawn of a better day, the humble Yorkshire printer, who undertook the unpopular and unremunerative work of publishing to the world the sorrows and sufferings of the non-human races, claims our highest respect and admiration. he has also another title (second only to humanitarian merit) to the gratitude of posterity as having been the originator of cheap literature of the best class, and of the most instructive sort, which, alike by the price and form, was adapted for wide circulation.
George Nicholson was born at Bradford. He early set up a printing press and began the publication of his Literary Miscellany, "which is not, as the name might lead one to suppose, a magazine, but a series of choice anthologies, varied by some gems of English literature. The size is a small 18mo., scarcely too large for the waistcoat pocket. The printing was a beautiful specimen of the typographic art, and for the illustrations he sought the aid of the best artists. He was one of the patrons of Thomas Bewick, some of the whose choicest work is to be found in the pamphlets issued by Nicholson. he also issued 125 cards, on which were printed favourite pieces, afterwards included in the Literary Miscellany. This 'assemblage of classical beauties for the parlour, the closet, the carriage, or the shade,' became very popular, and extended to twenty volumes. The plan of issuing them in separate numbers enabled individuals to make their own selection, and they are found bound up in every possible variety. Complete sets are now rare, and highly prized by collectors."
Of his many useful publications may be enumerated - Stenography : The Mental Friend and Rational Companion, consisting of Maxims and Reflections relating to the Conduct of Life. 12mo. The Advocate and Friend of Woman. 12mo. Directions for the Improvement of the Mind. 12mo. Juvenile Preceptor. Three vols., 12mo. The books which concern us now are - On the Conduct of Man to Inferior Animals (Manchester, 1797 : this was adorned by a woodcut from the hand of Bewick). And his magnum opus, which appeared in the year 1801, under the title of The Primeval Diet of Man : Arguments in Favour of Vegetable Food; with Remarks on Man's Conduct to [other] Animals (Poughnill [sic: Poughnhill], near Ludlow).
The value of The Primeval Diet was enhanced by the addition, in a later issue, of a tract On Food (1803), in which are given recipes for the preparation of "one hundred perfectly palatable and nutritious substances, which may easily be procured at an expense much below the price of the limbs of our fellow animals. . . . Some of the recipes, on account of their simple form, will not be adopted even by those in the middle rank of life. Yet they may be valuable to many of scanty incomes, who desire to avoid the evils of want, or to make a reserve for the purchasing of books and other mental pleasures." He also published a tract On Clothing, which contains much sensible and practical advice on an important subject.
Nicholson resided successively in Manchester, Poughnill (sic), and Stourport, and died at the last-named place in the year 1825. "He possessed," says a writer in The Gentleman's Magazine (xcv.), "in an eminent degree, strength of intellect, with universal benevolence and undeviating uprightness of conduct." The learned bibliographer, to whom we are indebted for this brief notice, thus sums up the character of his labours: "In all his writing the purity and benevolence of his intentions are strikingly manifest. Each subject he took in hand was thought out in an independent manner, and without reference to current views or prejudices." (1)
In the brief preface the author this expresses his sad conviction of the probable futility of his protests :-
"The difficulties of removing deep-rooted prejudices, and the inefficiency of reason and argument, when opposed to habitual opinions established on general approbation, are fully apprehended. Hence the cause of humanity, however zealously pleaded, will not be materially promoted. Unflattered by the hope of exciting an impression on the public mind, the following compilation is dedicated to the sympathising and generous Few, whose opinions have not been founded on implicit belief and common acceptation : whose habits are not fixed by the influence of false and pernicious maxims or corrupt examples : who are neither deaf to the cries of misery, pitiless to suffering innocence, nor unmoved at recitals of violence, tyranny, and murder."
In the whole literature of humanitarianism, nothing can be more impressive for the sympathising reader than this putting on record by these nobler spirits their profound consciousness of the moral torpor of the world around them, and their sad conviction of the prematureness of their attempt to regenerate it. In both his principal works, he judiciously chooses, for the most part, the method of compilation, and of presenting in a concise and comprehensive form the opinions of his humane predecessors, of various minds and times, rather than the presentation of his own individual sentiments. He justly believed that the large majority of men are influenced more by the authority of great names than by arguments addressed simply to their conscience and reason. He intersperses, however, philosophic reflections of his own, whenever the occasion for them arises. Thus, under the head of "Remarks on Defences of Flesh-eating," he well disposes of the common excuses :-
"The reflecting reader will not expect a formal refutation of common-place objections, which mean nothing, as, 'There would be more unhappiness and slaughter among animals did we not keep them under proper regulations and government. Where would they find pasture did we not manure and enclose the land for them? &c. The following objection, however may deserve notice :- 'Animals must die, and is it not better for them to live a short time in plenty and ease, than be exposed to their enemies, and suffered in old age to drag on a miserable life?' The lives of animals in a state of nature are very rarely miserable, and it argues a barbarous and savage disposition to cut them prematurely off in the midst of an agreeable and happy existence; especially when we reflect on the motives which induce it. Instead of a friendly concern for promoting their happiness, your aim is the gratification of your own sensual appetites. How inconsistent is your conduct with the fundamental principle of pure morality and true-goodness (which some of you ridiculously profess) - whatsoever you would that others should do to you, do you even so to them. No man would willingly become the food of other animals; he ought not therefore to prey on them. Men who consider themselves to be members of universal nature, and links in the great chain of Being, ought not to usurp power and tyranny over others, beings naturally free and independent, however such beings may be inferior in intellect or strength. . . . It is argued that 'man has a permission, proved by the practice of mankind, to eat the flesh of other animals, and consequently to kill them; and as there are many animals which subsist wholly on the bodies of other animals, the practice is sanctioned among mankind.' By reason of the at present very low state of morality of the human race, there are many evils which it is the duty and business of enlightened ages to eradicate. The various refinements of civil society, the numerous improvements in the arts and sciences, and the different reformations in the laws, policy, and government of nations, are proofs of this assertion. That mankind, in the present stage of polished life, act in direct violation of the principles of justice, mercy, tenderness, sympathy, and humanity, in the practice of eating flesh, is obvious. To take away the life of any happy being, to commit acts of depredation and outrage, and to abandon every refined feeling and sensibility, is to degrade the human kind beneath his professed dignity of character ; but to devour or eat any animal is an additional violation of those principles, because it is the extreme of brutal ferocity. Such is the conduct of the most savage of wild beasts, and of the most uncultivated and barbarous of our own species. Where is the person who, with calmness, can hear himself compared in disposition to a lion, a hyena, a tiger or a wolf? And yet, how exactly similar is his disposition.
"Mankind affect to revolt at murders, at the shedding of blood, and yet eagerly, and without remorse, feed on the corpse after it has undergone the culinary process. What mental blindness pervades the human race, when they do not perceive that every feast of blood is a tacit encouragement and licence to the very crime their pretended delicacy abhors! I say pretended delicacy, for that it is pretended is most evident. The profession of sensibility, humanity, &c., in such persons, therefore, is egregious folly. And yet there are respectable persons among everyone's acquaintance, amiable in other dispositions, and advocates of what is commonly termed the cause of humanity, who are weak or prejudiced enough to be satisfied with such arguments, on which they ground apologies for their practice! Education, habit, prejudice, fashion, and interest, have blinded the eyes of men, and seared their hearts.
"Opposers of compassion urge : 'If we should live on vegetable food, what shall we do with our cattle? What would become of them? They would grow up so numerous they would be prejudicial to us - they would eat us up if we did not kill and eat them.' But there is abundance of animals in the world whom men do not kill and eat; and yet we hear not of their injuring mankind, and sufficient room is found for their abode. Horses are not usually killed to be eaten, and yet we have not heard of any country overstocked with them. The raven and redbreast are seldom killed, and yet they do not become too numerous. If a decrease of cows, sheep and others were required, mankind would readily find means of reducing them. Cattle are at present an article of trade, and their numbers are industriously promoted. If cows are kept solely for the sake of milk, and if their young should become too numerous, let the evil be nipped in the bud. Scarcely suffer the innocent young to feel the pleasure of breathing. Let the least pain possible be inflicted; let its body be deposited entire in the ground, and let a sigh have vent for the calamitous necessity that induced the painful act. . . . Self-preservation justifies a man in putting noxious animals to death, yet cannot warrant the least act of cruelty to any being. By suddenly despatching one when in extreme misery, we do a kind office, an office which reason approves, and which accords with our best and kindest feelings, but which (such is the force of custom) we no longer enjoy happiness, they may perhaps be deprived of life. Do not suppose that in this reasoning an intention is included of perverting nature. No! some animals are savage and unfeeling; but let not their ferocity and brutality be the standard pattern of the conduct of man. Because some of them have no compassion, feeling, or reason, are we to to possess no compassion, feeling, or reason?"
In another section of the book Nicholson undertakes to expose the inconsistencies of flesh-eaters, and the strange illogicalities of the position of many protesters against various forms of cruelty, who condone the greatest cruelty of all - the (necessary) savagery of the butchers :-
"The inconsistencies of the conduct and opinions of mankind in general are evident and notorious; but when ingenious writers fall into the same glaring errors, our regret and surprise are justly and strongly excited. Annexed to the impressive remarks by Soame Jenyns, to be inserted hereafter, in examining the conduct of man to [other] animals, we meet with the following passage :-
" 'God has been pleased to create numberless animals intended for our sustenance, and that they are so intended, the agreeable flavour of their flesh to our palates, and the wholesome nutriment which it administers to our stomachs, are sufficient proofs; these, as they are formed for our use, propagated by our culture, and fed by our care, we have certainly a right to deprive of life, because it is given and preserved to them on that condition.'
"But it has already been argued that the bodies of animals are not intended for the sustenance of man; and the decided opinions of several eminent medical writers and others sufficiently disprove assertions in favour of the wholesomeness of the flesh of animals. The agreeable taste of food is not always a proof of its nourishing or wholesome properties. This truth is too frequently experienced in mistakes, ignorantly or accidentally made, particularly by children, in eating the fruit of the deadly nightshade, the taste of which resembles black currants, and is extremely inviting by the beauty of its colour and shape. (2)
"That we have a right to make attacks on the existence of any being because we have assisted and fed such being, is an assertion opposed to every established principle of justice and morality. A 'condition' cannot be made without the mutual consent of parties, and, therefore, what this writer terms 'a condition,' is nothing less than an unjust, arbitrary, and deceitful imposition. 'Such is the deadly and stupefying influence of habit or custom,' says Mr. Lawrence, 'of so poisonous and brutalising a quality is prejudice, that men, perhaps no way inclined by nature to acts of barbarity, may yet live insensible of the constant commission of the most flagrant deeds.' . . . A cook-maid will weep at a tale of woe, while she is skinning a living eel, and the devotee will mock the Deity by asking a blessing on food supplied by murderous outrages against nature and religion! Even women of education, who readily weep while reading an affecting moral tale, will clear away clotted blood, still warm with departed life, cut the flesh, disjoint the bones, and tear out the intestines of an animal, without sensibility, without sympathy, without fear, without remorse. What is more common than to hear this softer sex talk of, and assist in, the cookery of a deer, a hare, a lamb or a calf (those acknowledged emblems of innocence) with perfect composure? Thus the female character, by nature soft, delicate, and susceptible of tender impressions, is debated and sunk. It will be maintained that in other respects they still possess the characteristics of their sex, and are humane and sympathising. The inconsistency then is the more glaring. To be virtuous in some instances does not constitute the moral character, but to be uniformly so."
We can allow ourselves space only for one or two further quotations from this excellent writer. The remarks upon the common usage of language, by which it is vainly thought to conceal the true nature of the dishes served up upon the tables of the rich, are particularly noteworthy, because the inaccurate expression condemned is almost universal, and that even, from the force of habit, amongst reformed dietists themselves :-
"There is a natural horror at the shedding of blood, and some have an aversion to the practice of devouring the carcass of an innocent sufferer, which bad habits improper education, and silly prejudices have not overcome. This is proved by their affected and absurd refinement of calling the dead bodies of animals meat. If the meaning of words is to be regarded, this is a gross mistake; for the word meat is a universal term, applying equally to all nutritive and palatable substances. If it be intended to express that all other kinds of food are comparatively not meat, the intention is ridiculous. The truth is that the proper expression, flesh, conveys ideas of murder and death. Neither can it be easily forgotten that, in grinding the body of a fellow animal, substances which constitute human bodies are masticated. This reflection comes somewhat home, and is recurred to by eaters of flesh in spite of themselves, but recurred to unwillingly. They attempt, therefore, to pervert language in order to render it agreeable to the ear, as they disguise animal flesh by cookery in order to render it pleasing to the taste."
His reflections upon the essential injustices (to use no stronger term) of delegating the work of butchering to a particular class of men (to which frequent reference has already been made in these pages) are equally admirable :-
"Among butchers, and those who qualify the different parts of an animal into food, it would be easy to select persons much further removed from those virtues which should result from reason, consciousness, sympathy, and animal sensations, than any savages on the face of the earth! In order to avoid all the generous and spontaneous sympathies of compassion, the office of shedding blood is committed to the hands of a set of men who have been educated in inhumanity, and whose has been blunted and destroyed by early habits of barbarity. This men increase misery in order to avoid the sight of it, and because they cannot endure being obviously cruel themselves, or commit actions which strike painfully on their senses, they commission those to commit them who are formed to delight in cruelty, and to whom misery, torture, and shedding of blood is an amusement! they appear not once to reflect that whatever we do by another we do to ourselves."
"When a large and gentle Ox, after having resisted a ten times greater force of blows than would have killed his murderers, falls stunned at last, and his armed head is fastened to the ground with cords; as soon as the wide wound is made, and the jugular veins are cut asunder, what mortal can, without horror and compassion, hear the painful bellowings, intercepted by his flow of blood, the bitter sighs that speak the sharpness of his anguish, and the deep-sounding groans with loud anxiety, fetched from the bottom of his strong and palpitating heart. Look on the trembling and violent convulsions of his limbs; see, whilst his reeking gore streams from him, his eyes become dim and languid, and behold his strugglings, gasps, and last efforts for life.
"When a being has given such convincing and undeniable proofs of terror and of pain and agony, is there a disciple of Descartes so inured to blood, as not to refute, by his commiseration, the philosophy of that vain reasoner?" (3)
In his previous essay, On the Conduct of Men to Inferior Animals, Nicholson has collected from various writers, both humane and inhumane, a fearful catalogue of atrocities of different kinds perpetrated upon his helpless dependants by the being who delights to boast himself (at least in civilised countries) to be made "in the image and likeness of God." Among these the hellish tortures of the vivisectionists and "pathologists" hold, perhaps, the bad pre-eminence, but the cruel tortures of the Slaughter-House come very near to them in wanton atrocity.
- In a sketch of the life of George Nicholson, contributed to a Manchester journal, by Mr. W. E. A. Axon.
- Perhaps the fallacy of this line of apology, on the part of the ordinary dietists, cannot be better illustrated than by the example of the man-eating tribes of New Zealand, Central Africa, and other parts of the world, who confessedly are (or were) hominiverous, and who have been by travellers quoted as some of the finest races of men on the globe. The "wholesome nutriment" of their human food was as forcible an argument for their stomach as the "agreeable flavour" was attractive for their palates. Such glaring fallacy might be illustrated further by the example of the man-eating tiger who, we may justly imagine, would use similar apologies for his practice.
- On the Conduct, &c., and The Primeval Diet of Man &c., by George Nicholson, Manchester and London, 1797, 1801. The author assumes as his motto for the title-page the words of Rouseau - Hommes, soyez humains! C'est votre premier devoir. Quelle sagesse y a-t-il pout vous hors de l'humanité? "Humans, be humane! It is your first duty. What wisdom is there for you without humanity?"

This looks like your regular caramel custard pudding, but it’s actually sweetened with a gula melaka syrup for a local twist on a classic dessert. The subtle flavour of the palm sugar really brings out the smooth creaminess of this dessert. It’s easy to make, too!
” Smooth, sweet custard with a touch of gula melaka ”
- For the caramel:
- 1 cup gula melaka, chopped
- 2 -3 Tbsp water
- For the custard:
- 500ml milk
- 4 egg yolks
- 1/2 cup gula melaka, grated
- 1 -2 drops vanilla essence
- Pinch of salt
1. Preheat oven to 160 degrees celsius
2. Make the syrup first: cook down the gula melaka and water in a pot until dissolved and slightly caramelized (use your nose as a guide! it should smell juuuust slightly burnt). When done, divide the caramel equally into two ramekins.
3. For the custard, whisk the egg yolks with the grated gula melaka until slightly fluffy. Add the vanilla essence and whisk to combine.
4. Heat the milk to slightly below boiling. Turn off the heat. Pour the hot milk little by little into the egg mixture and whisk constantly. Divide into the two ramekins.
5. Place the ramekins in a deep tray. Fill water up to halfway up the tray. Cover with foil then cook in the oven for 45 – 50 minutes.
6. Cool down before serving. Just upend the puddings onto a plate… or eat it straight out of the ramekin!
This recipe uses milk for a light, smooth pudding. You can use double cream for a thicker pudding, or go half-and-half for the best of both worlds.

WARR ACRES — Accused by police of being drunk, driving the wrong way in a fast-food drive-through lane, impersonating law enforcement and spitting on a police officer, an attorney was arrested Friday in Warr Acres. Another attorney, who was reportedly the passenger in the wrong-way vehicle, was arrested and accused of public intoxication, according to police. Attorney Lewis B. Moon, 42, and Oklahoma County assistant public defender David James Bedford, 32, were arrested about 1:40 a.m. at Whataburger, 7820 N MacArthur. The restaurant manager called police and said the driver of a Cadillac Escalade nearly hit another car in the drive-through lane. The caller said the driver and passenger appeared intoxicated, Warr Acres Police Sgt. Alan Davidofsky said. When a police officer arrived, Moon, the driver, was uncooperative and was "taken down,” Davidofsky said. He said Moon spit in an officer's face. Davidofsky said Moon pulled out a badge from the Oklahoma County sheriff's office and claimed to be a deputy. Sheriff's spokesman Mark Myers said the badge actually is known as a sheriff's "eagle badge.” The badges are given to people who support the sheriff's department, but they are not official law officer badges. Myers said the badges are not given to people who promise political support or financial contributions but are more of a "keepsake.” On a videotape made at the Warr Acres Police Department, Moon is shown asking over and over to be taken to "county,” and cursing at police officers. "While they were here, Moon was dropping names of judges and threatening to sue everyone. Then comments were made about tracking down the clerks who called him in,” Davidofsky said. On the videotape, released to The Oklahoman by the Warr Acres Police Department, Moon said he was thrown against a wall and thrown into a police car. He says he asked for ice for a swollen elbow but was not given any. Moon was taken to the Oklahoma County jail and booked on complaints of having actual physical control of a motor vehicle while intoxicated, impersonating a law officer, resisting arrest and placing bodily fluids on a law officer, Davidofsky said. He said Moon refused to take a breath test to determine whether he was intoxicated. Myers said Moon was released from the jail Friday morning on $8,000 bail. Bedford was arrested on a complaint of public intoxication and released from jail early Friday after posting $245 bail on the Warr Acres municipal complaint, Myers said. Bob Ravitz, Oklahoma County public defender, said Friday he was gathering details about Bedford's arrest. "I am looking into Mr. Bedford's actions and after a thorough investigation I will determine what, if any action is appropriate,” Ravitz said. Moon did not return telephone messages left at his law office Friday.

Today, the media has successfully diverted our attention from important issues to a political power game. The following questions are not unreasonable: Does a foetus undergoing pain deserve analgesia? Does a baby born alive in an abortion clinic warrant resuscitation? Can we justify sex-selective abortions? While such questions warrant thoughtful answers, the media would much rather distract us with the likes of Geoff Shaw and dirty political bargains, than address the heart of these matters.
The 2004 Australian code of practice for the care and use of animals for scientific practice stipulates that animal embryos subject to experimentation have the same analgesia requirements as adult animals. In 2008, the Victorian parliament rejected an amendment to make mandatory the provision of pain relief to a foetus about to be aborted.
Science claims that babies can feel pain at 22 weeks. The media has portrayed Shaw’s proposed amendment to afford foetuses analgesia as “radical”, but how can this be the case when we would not even put an animal through the same pain?
Furthermore, while liberty and freedom are an integral part of democracy, since when did freedom mean that babies are not permitted to be resuscitated simply because they take their first breaths in an abortion clinic as opposed to the arms of wanting parents?
Rather than critically engaging with the issues Mr. Shaw has raised, politicians and social media have dismissed his propositions as “radical” and a mere exploitation of his position holding the balance of power. Mr Andrews has claimed that the Labor party “is not going to get involved” and furthermore, “no one that quite frankly has any decency” would involve themselves in such legislation. But why? What is so indecent about resuscitating a baby born alive? Why is analgesia out of the question for human foetuses but a given for animal ones?
In a country that prides itself on the free expression of and engagement with ideas, it’s surprising that the Age and subsequent publications have resorted to ad hominum attacks at Mr Shaw for colloquially referring to the uterus as a “tummy”. This lack of critical engagement reflects a desire to maintain the status of abortion as an inalienable right, even if it means depriving our own kind of the care granted to animals or ignoring the cries of an abortion survivor.

Group hopes Bridgeport steps in to save historic home
A nonprofit organization is stepping in to save a Bridgeport home that is also a piece of baseball history.
First Hit, Inc. wants to turn the house of Jim O?Rourke, an early baseball great, into a museum to showcase memorabilia from Bridgeport?s only Hall of Fame player. O?Rourke is credited with getting the first hit in the National League, for Boston, when it was formed in 1876.
O?Rourke was born in 1850 and was the son of Irish immigrants. He overcame anti-Irish prejudice and played for Boston in his early days. In 1879, he won a National League championship with the Providence Greys and later had a couple of stints with the New York Giants, the last of which was in 1904 when he was almost 60 years old.
The house is currently located at Steel Point, an area slated for redevelopment.
The city of Bridgeport has offered locations where the house can be moved so it will not be torn down. It hopes to do work near the O?Rourke house toward the end of the year, which could mean the end of efforts to save the house.
First Hit says none of the proposed alternative sites have worked out. The organization says more effort should have been put into incorporating O?Rourke?s house into the plans.
Mayor John Fabrizi says the city has tried to find a solution, but it can't foot the bill.

French spirits maker Pernod Ricard <PERP.PA> doesn't expect sales to rise until next year as second-wave COVID-19 lockdowns are likely to hit its business heavily in the last three months of 2020, the company said on Thursday.
French spirits maker Pernod Ricard <PERP.PA> expects its second quarter to be "very disrupted" due to restrictions tied to a resurgence of COVID-19 infections, notably in Europe, its chief executive told Reuters on Thursday.
French spirits maker Pernod Ricard said sales would return to growth in the second half of its 2020/2021 fiscal year, although the downturn in travel retail and disruptions from the COVID crisis would still impact its second quarter.
Corona Capital is a column updated throughout the day by Breakingviews columnists around the world with short, sharp pandemic-related insights.
Pernod Ricard looked to strong spirits sales in Europe and U.S. supermarkets as one bright spot during the coronavirus pandemic after reporting a 77 percent drop in net profit and a 1 billion euro write-down on Wednesday.
French spirits maker Pernod Ricard said on Thursday the coronavirus pandemic would not hit its full year profit as strongly as initially feared, citing more resilient sales in U.S and Western European supermarkets and strong cost control.
Pernod Ricard <PERP.PA> and Diageo <DGE.L>, two of the world's biggest spirit makers, have stopped receiving orders for their imported brands from India's defence canteen stores where they were sold at concessional prices, industry sources told Reuters.

Pernod Ricard SA CFO Helene de Tissot tells analysts during a call:

Drinks manufacturer Pernod Ricard said two bond sales on Wednesday totalling 1.5 billion euros, which will be used to refinance bank debt facilities, were heavily subscribed.
French spirits group Pernod Ricard warned on Tuesday of a hit of around 20% to its current operating profit as a result of the slump in business caused by the global coronavirus crisis.

French spirits maker Pernod Ricard remains confident over its medium term-prospects in China despite the coronavirus epidemic which will hit its full year sales, its chief executive told Reuters on Thursday.

France suffers first troop losses in CAR
PARIS - Agence France-Presse
French soldiers patrol to secure an area after exchanges of gunfire during a disarmament operation in the Combattant neighbourhood near the airport of Bangui, on December 9, 2013. AFP photoTwo French soldiers have been killed in the Central African Republic's capital, the presidency said Tuesday, the first reported casualties since a military operation began last week to restore order in the troubled country.
The two paratroopers were on a night patrol near the airport when they were injured in a clash, parliamentary speaker Claude Bartolone said after a meeting with the prime minister, adding they could not be saved.
"With much sadness, the president learned of the deaths in combat of two French soldiers last night in Bangui," French President Francois Hollande's office said in a statement.
"They lost their lives to save many others.
"The president expresses his profound respect for the sacrifice of these two soldiers and renews his full confidence in the French forces committed -- alongside African forces -- to restoring security in the Central African Republic, to protecting the people and guaranteeing access to humanitarian aid."
France has deployed 1,600 soldiers to its notoriously unstable former colony, a resource-rich but impoverished majority Christian nation that was plunged into chaos after mainly Muslim Seleka rebels seized power in a March coup.
The troops are part of a UN-mandated effort to restore order, with the African Union also due to beef up an existing peacekeeping mission to 6,000 men.
On Monday, they began disarming fighters in Central Africa after a wave of sectarian violence in the capital left nearly 400 people dead.
According to Bartolone, speaker of the National Assembly, the two soldiers were involved in a clash near Bangui airport.
"They were injured and very quickly taken to the surgical unit but unfortunately, they could not be saved," he said after the briefing on the CAR.
Hollande, who is attending Nelson Mandela's memorial service in South Africa, will travel to Bangui later on Tuesday with Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius.

Ford adopts a global approach
FORD'S NORTH American operation is looking to Europe to help A in its quest to downsize its product line-up to meet what it describes as "dramatically changing conditions"
It has just unveiled the One Fordpackage, an accelerated programme to introduce smaller and more fuel-efficient models. It aims to have 40% of its North American offering shared with Ford of Europe by 2010, with 100% alignment by 2013.
One key area is to rationalise its global LCV product range from the four platforms used for existing EconolinefTransit models to just one, which is expected to happen in 2011.
The plans also state that mid-2009 will see the arrival of a new Transit Connect, to be built for Europe at a retooled plant in Romania, but which will also be sold in North America.

|The Golden Boy|
|Eternal Youth and the Spirit of Enterprise|
|Medium||Gilded bronze statue|
|Dimensions||525 cm (207 in)|
|Location||Manitoba Legislative Building, Winnipeg, Manitoba|
The Golden Boy (official name: Eternal Youth and the Spirit of Enterprise) is a northward-facing statue perched on the dome of the Manitoba Legislative Building in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Arguably the province's best-known symbol, the statue was modeled after the Roman god Mercury (Greek: Hermes) and is meant to represent the prosperity and entrepreneurial spirit of Manitoba.
The statue depicts a nude young man running forward carrying a torch in one hand and a bundle of wheat in the other.
Weighing 1,650 kilograms (3,640 lb), it stands 5.25 metres (17.2 ft) tall from the toe to the top of the torch, and 4.27 metres (14.0 ft) from head to toe. When first installed, the tip of his torch—at 77 metres (253 ft) above ground—was the tallest point in all of Winnipeg.
The construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway began to open the West in the late-19th century, and as result, thousands of immigrants began settling in and near Winnipeg in 1881. By 1911, the population of Manitoba had increased over seven-fold, to 461,394. That year, as the province was rich in natural resources, and Winnipeg (its capital) was a hub for agriculture, grain trade, and other enterprises, the Government of Manitoba announced plans to construct a new legislature, which Manitoba politicians hoped to represent this emerging strength and vitality. Being judged as best reflecting this goal, Simon's designs intended to create a building of inspiration, and his 'crowning glory' would be the statue positioned at its highest point.
In the summer of 1915, Simon commissioned Parisian sculptor Georges Gardet to create the statue. Over the next 18 months or so, the men exchanged transatlantic letters and drawings regularly. These documents are now preserved at the Archives of Manitoba in Winnipeg.
Simon prepared the shaft for statue to be built in two parts: the upper part, extending from the statue to the centre of the ball where it would fit into the coupling, was to be built in France. The lower part of the shaft would be built in Winnipeg, upon delivery of the statue. As both metals and lathes were needed for the war effort, obtaining even basic materials for the statue was difficult; in a memo to the Manitoba Minister of Public Works in December 1917, Simon explained that it "was impossible to obtain [the shaft] either in England or in France owing to war conditions". Eventually the upper shaft was constructed in Chicago and shipped to France. Simon had also wished for the statue to be cast from one piece of material without any joints or seams. Given the metal shortage in France, however, several smaller pieces were used.
Purchased by the Government of Manitoba from France, the statue was completed by Gardet in 1918, cast in bronze by the Barbedienne Foundry. The factory was bombed but the statue was not damaged.
The statue was placed in the hold of a freight ship for transport to Canada. The ship was then commandeered for war service and directed to transport allied troops and supplies. The statue remained in the ship for the remainder of the War, making two trips across the Mediterranean and five transatlantic crossings.
The statue arrived in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and was shipped by train to Winnipeg, where it was placed atop the Manitoba Legislative Building on 21 November 1919, in time for the official opening of the Legislative Building in 1920.
Although made of bronze, the statue—originally and officially titled 'Eternal Youth and the Spirit of Enterprise'—was nicknamed 'Golden Boy' from the onset, as the new bronze figure shined and reflected the sun, making the figure appear to be made of gold.
Renovation and restoration
In the 1940s, the bronze statue was painted gold. This would be followed in 1951 by its first gilding with 50,000 square inches of 23.5-carat gold leaf, measuring 3.25 square inches per sheet. In 1966, the Government of Manitoba had an electric lamp installed atop the torch of the statue, which was first lit on 31 December 1966 to mark Canada's centennial celebrations in 1967.
In 2002, the statue required repair because rust was accumulating on the inside of its hollow core and its iron supports were eroding away; Alpha Masonry, the general contractor for the restoration project, lowered the statue to the ground for a complete overhaul and regilding. On 9 February 2002, the Golden Boy returned to the ground in a custom-made aluminum cage after almost 83 years in place.
In August 2002, the statue was regilded with a micro-thin coat of 23.75-karat gold leaf in a climate-controlled enclosure in full view of the public. During the restoration, the statue was also placed on public display at the Manitoba Museum and at the Forks National Historic Site. Prepared by Bristol Aerospace with a custom-manufactured paint from Germany, the statue was regilded using 4,000 sheets of extra-heavy gold leaf. A new steel support post was installed by ISIS Canada, accompanied by a structural health monitoring system—monitors and gauges for measuring vibrations and strain as well as for wind stress and temperature effect on the statue and support structure.
The Golden Boy was returned to the Legislative Building and re-installed on the dome on 5 September 2002. It was rededicated by Queen Elizabeth II, Queen of Canada, during her 2002 Golden Jubilee tour of Canada the following month. The restoration cost a total of CA$1.1 million. The regilding cost $34,000, with the gold-leaf costing $5,600.
The new gilding is expected to last about 25 to 30 years. Since its restoration, the Golden Boy's torch is no longer lit because its electrical cord had been one of the causes for the rust found in 2002. Instead, it is lit at night by floodlights.
The Golden Boy was modelled by Giovanni da Bologna after the 16th-century sculpture of the Roman messenger god of trade, profit and commerce, Mercury. The sheaf of wheat in the statue' left arm represents the fruits of labour, while the torch in its right hand represents a call to youth to join his eternal pursuit of a more prosperous future. The statue faces in a north direction, pointing towards the Manitoba region to symbolize its importance as a provider of important natural resources and economic opportunity.
"Manitoba Golden Boy" is a traditional fiddle tune in the statue's honour. The chorus includes the following:
He’s the symbol of success
At the gateway to the west
And he’s our legendary pride and joy.

GRAND RAPIDS -- Floyd Mayweather's adviser acknowledged Friday night that he has been instructed to entertain inquiries about possible fights.
Mayweather has not fought in more than a year and recently called a family member to discuss various comeback possibilities, including a fight with Manny Pacquiao, but had not shown interest publicly before.
"Everybody's talking about Floyd, so he gave the word to see what's out there and if it's something he's interested in, we'd consider it," Leonard Ellerbe said. "That's not saying he's going to do anything, just that he said, 'See what's out there.'
"The bottom line is, since all this is going on, Floyd has given me pretty clear instructions to evaluate whatever's offered, and if it's something worthwhile, he'll consider it."
Mayweather has been linked to possible fights next year against both Pacquiao, who replaced him as pound-for-pound king after he retired this year and solidified his spot with an upset this month of Oscar De La Hoya, as well as Ricky Hatton.
Hatton lost a 10th-round technical knockout in the 32-year-old Mayweather's most recent fight, in December 2007.
Richard Schaefer, CEO of Golden Boy Promotions, which represents Hatton, reportedly said this week that Hatton-Pacquiao talks are close to fruition. Bob Arum, whose Top Rank Inc. represents Pacquiao, has said he expects no fight announcement for the Filipino star until next year.
Ellerbe said he had not had direct discussions with representatives of either Hatton or Pacquiao about fighting Mayweather but added, "I've gotten calls today that are probably going to lead to that."
"Mr. Mayweather's name has been ringing like Christmas bells everywhere," Ellerbe said. "Every conversation we see is Floyd, Floyd, Floyd. With Floyd being out of boxing, these guys are using his name to elevate their names and their positions. So Floyd gave instructions to find out what their positions are."

It all started with a bean.
Since 1954, Christmas designs have been the hallmark and cornerstone of Annalee Dolls. From that date until today, it has been the plump, merry, and “uniquely Annalee” Santa Claus that has symbolized the heart and soul of the company.
Annalee Thorndike’s first Santa was a 12-inch bean-nosed Santa with hand-painted features, a cotton beard, and boots whose soles were repurposed from an unused strip of linoleum that was left over from her kitchen. (Yes, an actual uncooked Joseph’s Coat bean was used for the nose.) Since that first Santa, thousands of Christmas designs featuring all types of elves, animals, and various characters have found their way into collectors’ homes where they are loved and passed down through the generations. Annalee dolls have become a cherished part of our Christmas traditions.
Today, the Annalee tradition continues with the release of four new 2023 Christmas Collections. This year’s collections, each designed around an individual theme, offer a mixture of traditional and contemporary styling that is playful, cozy, fanciful, and, in true Annalee flair, forever whimsical. In keeping with tradition, each collection includes new unique Santa and Mrs. Claus designs. New cheerful snowmen, spicy gingerbread men, and heavenly angels also will capture your attention. Dozens of enchanting animals of all kinds also enhance each collection. Plus, some of the most magical (and well-dressed) elves to ever come out of Annalee’s workshop are ready to spread joy and help you have the happiest of holidays. Let’s get started and explore each new collection.
Bold and, ahem, oh so jolly, the 2023 Jolly Collection features a classic red and white striped fabric combined with bright red and green felt to really capture the spirit of the season. The smiles are really big in each Jolly design. Each design has a playful and cuddly appeal that immediately brings a smile to the face and warms the heart. Highlights of the collection are three new wickedly wonderful “naughty elf” designs, a cooler-than-cool Jolly Cardinal, and a stately and handsome Jolly Snowman. You also won’t be able to resist the twin Jolly Red and Jolly Green elves in their oh-so-cozy and adorable cable knit sweaters. They’re sure to be collector favorites.
The 2023 Plaid & Pine Collection is designed with a little touch of country charm. Simply put, it’s beautiful. A subtle red plaid print is coupled with soft heather gray felt in each design. Accents include pine sprays, rustic jingle bells, red berries, and burlap. The festive menagerie of animals make this collection truly stand out. You’ll fall in love with the striking fox, mama moose, playful mice, gift-giving squirrel, gray tabby kitty, and a very precious donkey. Plaid and Pine also features two distinct Santa and Mrs. Claus designs, in 9-inch and 15-inch versions.
Everyone’s favorite Christmas flower is the inspiration for the 2023 Poinsettia Collection. Each design in this series is beautifully elegant with its delicate red and white floral print, soft red velour, and precious poinsettia accents. Just like the flower it is inspired by, each design will add a festive touch to your home for the holidays. The poinsettia’s symbolism of good wishes, love, and hope can be seen in a majestic pony, two very friendly penguin designs, two statuesque reindeer designs, a traditional snowman, and an adorable polar bear (you just want to cuddle him). And let’s not forget the new Santa and Mrs. Claus designs. They’ve really got the spirit.
Some of the best moments and traditions of the holiday season happen in the kitchen. Everyone loves making (and especially eating) favorite holiday dishes and desserts. That’s why Annalee has featured chefs, cooking, baking, and cookie and candy designs as part of its annual tradition. The 2023 Holiday Sweets Collection is a bright and whimsical group of chefs and critters that really share a love for Christmas treats. Each design is made extra sweet with a very festive and colorful candy cane print. And in true Annalee fashion, Santa and Mrs. Claus lend helping hands in the kitchen. Remember, Santa really loves his cookies and treats. You’ll also really like to cozy up with the Cocoa Share Mice and Rolling Pin Mouse.
Annalee’s talent for capturing the spirit of the holiday season in her Christmas-themed designs lives on today with the new 2023 collections. Each of the almost 100 new designs stands out with their distinctive features, lifelike facial expressions, and unique positions. It’s this attention to detail that sets Annalee dolls apart and keeps collectors coming back year after year. Christmas just wouldn’t be Christmas without Annalee. Which new Christmas collection or individual design do you like best? Let us know at firstname.lastname@example.org.

BUTE had no fewer than five representatives in the annual Tartan Week parade in New York recently.
Four island residents – Colin Fulcher, John Digney, John Webster and Sam Lawrie – took their place among the many pipe bands, clans, societies, other organisations and representatives of Scotland in the parade down Sixth Avenue – also known as the Avenue of the Americas.
The fifth person with Bute connections in the parade was none other than this year’s Chieftain, Bob Winter, the Lord Provost of Glasgow, who owns a holiday home in Kilchattan Bay and is a frequent visitor to the island.
Colin told us: “The people of New York were so friendly and welcoming to us and we would recommend this city to anyone.
“It was an unforgettable experience, and the sight of thousands of people waving Scotland flags and cheering us on is one which we will remember for many years!”
The Manhattan parade, though, wasn’t the only Scottish-themed event in North America last week to have a link to Bute: 340 miles north of New York, at the St Andrew’s Club in Toronto, Chris and Hazel Markwell, who have a holiday home in Port Bannatyne, attended an event organised by the Scottish Government, VisitScotland and Scottish Enterprise to celebrate the deep links of friendship, culture and commerce between Canada and Scotland.
Chris, who organised last year’s ‘Baird of Bute’ celebrations, marking the centenary of Scotland’s first heavier-than-air powered flight from the beach at Ettrick Bay, told us: “The entertainment was provided by Skerryvore, an award-winning band from Tiree, and guests enjoyed featured products of Scottish food and drink.”
Among those also present at the Toronto gathering was retiring Argyll and Bute MSP and Scottish Government enterprise and tourism minister Jim Mather, who, Chris told us, made generous mention of the area in his speech at the event.

A former contestant of “The Bachelor” died from an apparent suicide over the weekend in Columbus, Ohio. Lex McAllister, who appeared on season 14 of “The Bachelor” with Jake Pavelka as the lead, died from an overdose.
TMZ reports that McAllister’s death was the result of suicide, according to authorities and her family.
Lex wasn’t on the show long. She was eliminated after the first week. She stirred up trouble after speaking out about Jake’s breakup with “Bachelor” winner, Vienna Girardi. She said the breakup wasn’t Vienna’s fault.
— E! Online (@eonline) February 16, 2016
Law enforcement sources in Columbus received a 911 call Saturday at around 2 p.m. with the caller stating that Lex had texted her earlier that day saying she wanted to “end her life.” The caller then went to check on her and it appeared Lex McAllister had overdosed on prescription pills.
According to USA Today, the caller was an unidentified friend.
The former “Bachelor” contestant was taken to a hospital in stable condition but, her body started to shut down. By Tuesday morning, McAllister’s family agreed to stop life support and Lex died.
A family member said Lex struggled with depression and bipolar disorder. Lex McAllister was 31-years-old.
Jake Pavelka reacted to Lex’s death by tweeting: “Im so sad to hear about Alexa. Such a beautiful girl. My heart breaks for her family. Covering them in prayer during this rough time.”
This is the second contestant of that particular season of “The Bachelor” to kill herself. Gia Allemand, also appeared as a contestant on Jake’s season of the show. She committed suicide in 2013 by hanging herself with a vacuum cleaner cord from a staircase at her home in New Orleans.

Getting to the specifics of the case, the Court divided my comments in the email criticizing the judge up into four categories and found that only the one in which I made the factual mistake of stating that the judge I criticized presided over the opening of the estate unsupervised without bond, when it was in fact the case was opened by another judge who briefly had the case some two years before I became involved. In the other categories of speech the Court found the comments were constitutionally protected or I had a reasonable basis for making the statements.
Then on the second charge, that I had improperly tried to influence judges via an ex parte communication, a letter I sent to Marion County judges about the process they are supposed to be following when distributing civil forfeiture proceeds, the Court found there was no violation, even noting that the letter, which the Commission continually claimed was ex parte, was sent to the prosecutor, the Attorney General, and the public safety director, all parties involved in the issue of how the civil forfeiture money gets divvied up at the trial and appellate level.
So if you're keeping score at home, I won on 4 of the 5 points of law, 80% of the case.
The good news on attorney free speech is that the Indiana Supreme Court appear to recognize that statements of opinion are not covered by Rule 8.2. On the other hand, the Court failed to distinguish between public and private communications, thereby leaving attorneys vulnerable to having their private emails and conversations scoured for Rule 8.2 violations for judicial criticism. Also, the Court fell short of the apparent position taken by the United States Supreme Court that attorney speech can only be curtailed when it directly affects the administration of justice in a pending case and that disciplinary rules can't otherwise be used to limit attorney free speech, including speech critical of judges.
Attorneys from across the country are wanting an attorney free speech case to go before the United States Supreme Court to curtail states use of disciplinary rules to target attorney speech critical of judges. I think it's inevitable that's going to happen as the U.S. Supreme Court seems to have a keen interest in free speech cases and there seems to be no support among conservatives or liberals on the Court for the types of professional sanctions states are imposing on attorneys for judicial criticism.
Back to my case, one of the things the Court found as an aggravating factor is that I was "obstreperous" with the Commission. I had to look the word up to confirm the meaning. According to one on-line dictionary, the word means " resisting control or restraint in a difficult manner; unruly."Certainly I did resist what the Commission was doing to me. The logical conclusion from the Court's decision is that the case was overcharged and overprosecuted. But I wish the Court would take a closer look at how the Commission conducts itself in these cases and the extremely poor priorities of Executive Director Michael Witte that had led to enormous resources being devoted to cases like this while neglecting to even do an investigation when attorneys such as William Conour are accused by clients of stealing money. If the Court takes a closer look at what happened in my case, I think the it will find conduct by the Commission to be totally out of line:
- Shortly after writing an article critical of the Commission, Executive Secretary Witte began filing grievances against me, including based on a letter from a judge that had sat dormant in his office for months.
- The Commission made no effort to talk to me or any of my witnesses during the supposed investigation of the grievances. In fact, there is no evidence that there was ever an investigation ever done during the grievance procedure.
- Two years later, and with no action whatsoever on the grievances, I met with Governor Pence's right hand man and discussing a key watchdog position at the public employee retirement commission. Then I was suddenly hit by charges filed by the Commission which effectively knocked me out of consideration for any job in the Pence administration. Once again, there had been no investigation or attempt to talk to witnesses before the Commission filed the grievance.
- The Commission spent enormous time and resources to put together a very lengthy charging complaint against me as if I committed the most serious ethical violations.
- The Commission filed Count II against me in which the Commission falsely characterized my civil forfeiture letter as an "ex parte" communication. Despite my repeated plea that it wasn't ex parte and it wasn't a violation of the rules, the Commission refused to drop the charge causing me to spend time and resources to defend against the allegation. The Indiana Supreme Court found that it was not a violation.
- During these proceedings, the Commission steadfastly refused any effort to resolve matters with a settlement. It was clear that Executive Secretary Michael Witte wanted my law license taken away and he was going to devote as much resources as needed to accomplish that.
- Rather than enter into a stipulation of facts as 90% of the facts in the case were undisputed, the Commission insisted on what turned out to be an 11 1/2 hour hearing, inconveniencing numerous people, including two sitting judges.
- During the 11 1/2 hearing, the room was filled with scores of Disciplinary Commission, a testament to the importance the Commission placed on taking away my license.
- Throughout my prosecution, it was clear that the Commission was being motivated by my criticism of the Commission. This came out explicitly when in some of the filings, the Commission asked for a more severe punishment because I had been publicly critical of the Commission.

Former Wasatch Portfolio Managers Robert Gardiner and Blake Walker, who formed Grandeur Peak Global Advisors, have launched their first two mutual funds: the Grandeur Peak Global Opportunities Fund and the Grandeur Peak International Opportunities Fund.
The Global Opportunities Fund will invest in 100 to 150 stocks of small and micro-cap companies in the U.S. and around the world, including emerging markets—but the portfolio managers will adjust their holdings to cover areas of the globe they see the greatest growth.
The International Opportunities Fund will also invest in 100 to 150 stocks of small and micro-cap companies, but only those outside of the U.S.
“In a world where business is increasingly global and country boundaries continue to blur, we believe the best long-term investment opportunities can be uncovered by investors who are fully canvassing the world to find and consider each company within its global context,” Gardiner said. Grandeur Peak will conduct “hands-on,” bottom-up research, including close valuation analysis, to find “interesting companies in every part of the world,” he added.

Why is Mims hot? What is it about this kid that makes everyone go crazy the moment his #1 hit enters the airwaves? He is from New York. He is a really good and positive performer. His music is about life and its struggles but it’s much more than that. He doesn’t talk about shooting people and the wonderful life he had as a drug dealer and the easy and accessibility of sex. He puts well-constructed verses to hot beats. He makes the club dance to his music. Demanding Hip Hop heads appreciate the sense in the words of his songs. New Yorkers are excited that he is bringing it back. His mother would have been happy she bought him that DJ equipment. And himself he is happy each and every day.
Every thing people mentioned that was wrong with Hip Hop in New York, Mims addressed. He is a fresh new face from the city, as every New Yorker wanted. His records focus on the positive and fun parts of life, as entertaining music should be. He is a guy full of energy, totally focused on his music and on spreading it to the masses, as he always wanted.
This is Why I’m Hot was an independently released record with more spins than just about any other track this year. It blew up like even Mims himself could never believe. It put him on every radio station, into every IPod and into every club in the whole country. What else? He finally brought New York back! As strange as it may appear Mims’ entry into the game was just what the doctor ordered. Music should make people happy. Music should make them forget about the issues and the routine of days. Music is My Savior is the name of his album and he makes it everyone’s savior. His new single, called Like This is already blowing up the airwaves.
Being a newcomer, his story in the industry is super short. His 26 years of life have offered him quite a story thou. Born into a lower-class Jamaican family he’s had a heavy Dominican influence growing up in the Washington Heights. His mom, who helped his passion start by buying him some DJ gear, dies from complication of birth to his sister. Staying a perfect student in school he’s allowed as much positive energy into his life as possible. He is refusing to say that Hip Hop is dead. How can it be dead if his shows get sold out all over the country?
Doing a club tour all over the country now, Mims is feeling pretty good. Everyone believes he is hot. Everyone wants to hear him. He is impacting lives, just like he’s always wanted. Doing 5-6 shows per week, at times 2 per day, he just can’t get enough. He even got his own label, American King Music and can already envision signing other acts to it, helping them get started just like he did. For now, he’s staying humble, excited, focused and positive. In the interview with WORDSnTUNES, he says: “…my biggest goal that I want to accomplish is to remain happy and to remain healthy”.
And this is why he’s hot!

I am guessing (just guessing) that it is starch that has been cooked in liquid to make it like a gel. (like you do when making a sauce). But I don't know.

And natural flavors depends on what it is. If it's in fruit juice, I doubt its beef tallow or something. If it's a dessert, it could be something from butter, eggs, etc.
Most foods have a 1-800 number you can call and ask what the source is of the natural flavoring. I'vew done it for some gravy mix, it was easy.
