The film, starring Poul Reichhardt and Lisbeth Movin, is a suspense tale revolving around the memories of a Danish saboteur as he awaits his execution in a German war-time prison. Filmed in Denmark only months after the end of the German occupation during WWII, Red Meadows is a clear ovation to the Danish resistance fighters and considered a stylistic masterwork. The film received the Palme D’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. In German-occupied Denmark during WWII, the young Danish saboteur Michael (Poul Reichhardt) sits in a Gestapo jail and

Excerpt: Buildings Births Deaths A hyperlinked version of this chapter is at end{sloppypar The Bevier House Museum , referred to simply as the Bevier House prior to its conversion from a private residence, is located in Marbletown , near Kingston, New York . The house is also the home of the Ulster County Historical Society and is currently open to the public as a museum .Bevier House is believed to have been constructed around 1680 by Andries Pieterse Van Leuvan. The original part of the house, currently the kitchen, was designed in the Dutch style and was probably a one-room, one-story structure. In 1715 the house was bought by Louis Bevier, son of the New Paltz patentee, who expanded the structure and operated it as part of a large farm. The house was donated to the Historical Society in 1938 after being used by seven generations of the Bevier Family between 1715 and 1939, during which it was expanded to the two-story building currently standing. The museum displays a series of additions and renovations that explain its history and provide context for the artifacts donated by the family and numerous others. The museum’s collection includes farm implements , home furnishings and decor, and an array of American Civil War memorabilia relating directly to Ulster County . It also includes the earliest-known land

Chapters: Lewis and Clark Expedition, Timeline of United States History, Great Falls, Oregon Pioneer History, Burr Conspiracy, William Dunbar, Pike Expedition, Malta War. Excerpt: The Burr conspiracy in the beginning of the 1800s was a suspected treasonous cabal of planters , politicians , and army officers led by former U.S. Vice President Aaron Burr . According to the accusations against him, Burrs goal was to create an independent nation in the center of North America and/or the Southwest and parts of Mexico . Burrs explanation: To take possession of, and farm, 40,000 acres (160 km²) in the Texas Territory leased to him by the Spanish . When the expected war with Spain broke out, he would fight with his armed “farmers,” to seize some lands he could conquer in the warall illegal by rules of warfare .Jefferson and others had Burr arrested and indicted for treason with no firm evidence put forward. Burrs true intentions are still considered ambiguous to some historians, who claim he intended to take parts of Texas and some or all of the Louisiana Purchase for himself. They claim Burr envisioned a new empire in the West over which he would rule. This historically unproven version of a conspiracy by Burr to take American land is still in print in many biographies, encyclopedias, and even history books. Letters written to this version can be found in letters by contemporaries who distrusted Burr, but no solid evidence can be found.James Wilkinson General James Wilkinson was one of Burrs most important co-conspirators. Though it was eventually discovered that his involvement in the conspiracy was most likely an attempt to further his own personal and political goals, he worked closely with Burr to develop a plan for secession. The commanding General of the Army at the time,

 A Cafecito Story/El Cuento Del Cafecito


A Cafecito Story/El Cuento Del Cafecito


$3.66


“A Cafecito Story” is a story of love, coffee, birds and hope. It is a beautifully written eco-fable by best-selling author Julia Alvarez. Based on her and her husband’s experiences trying to reclaim a small coffee farm in her native Dominican Republic, “A Cafecito Story” shows how the return to the traditional methods of shade-grown coffee can rehabilitate and rejuvenate the landscape and human culture, while at the same time preserving vital winter habitat for threatened songbirds.Not a political or environmental polemic, “A Cafecito Story” is instead a poetic, modern fable about human beings at their best. The challenge of producing coffee is a remarkable test of our ability to live more sustainably, caring for the land, growers, and consumers in an enlightened and just way. Written with Julia Alvarez’s deft touch, this is a story that stimulates while it comforts, waking the mind and warming the soul like the first cup of morning coffee. Indeed, this story is best read with a strong cup of organic, shade-grown, fresh-brewed coffee.
