What Can I Do to Make My Puppy Stop Nipping My Hands?
We all love puppies. They are so cute and cuddly. They are the closest thing to perpetual love machines that we could possibly imagine. Because of that, we love to play with them. We pick them up, give them hugs, play with their little paws, give them kisses, and allow them to do just about anything they want.
It is so cute to watch them chase the ball that we have rolled under the chair at the far end of the room. Seeing them bark at the leaves floating outside the back window never gets old. Feeding them by hand and letting them lick our fingers is just the best. Once they finally get their little bark, we find that so cute. They will bark at us, and we will make funny little whining sounds back at them.
It is always so much fun to play hide and seek with them. Well, it really isn’t “hide and seek”, it usually is “Where am I?, Where am I?, Where am I?”, and as soon as our puppy looks at us, we jump up and down and run off, hoping that they will chase us.
As long as we are having fun and mutually engaging with our little puppy, these are really fun activities. The problem arises when we decide we are done and need to work on the computer, answer our phone, read a book, have dinner, or go to bed. We turned our “off switch”, but nobody told our puppy to turn off their “off switch”. On top of that, what were all the “things we were teaching our puppy” while we were mutually going nuts?
The answer is “Probably not all good stuff”. Some of this “not all good stuff” is often nipping.
How can we interact with our puppy and not have him nip? It all is based around proper communication and focused behavior. Robin and I have a great dog training article that explains all of this. Please read our dog training blog titled “What Can I Do to Make My Puppy Stop Nipping My Hands”.

If you haven't already, you might want to check out the book, "Quail Plantations of South Georgia and North Florida" by Hank Margeson. I never had the money to hunt plantation style. Instead, I raised and trained my own dogs and depended upon the generosity of farmers and landowners here in northern Georgia for a place to hunt. Sadly, the quail population here is now non-existent. People blame coyotes, but the real culprit is house cats, both tame and feral. There should be a bounty on all cats found off their owners' property. Anyway, to my question...I see several images on your Tumblr where people are shooting straight up in the air. The clothing seems indicate that the location is Europe. What style hunting is this? Thanks!
Great to hear from you and thanks for reaching out. Yes, Hank's book is very good and I know his family very well. Many of his photographs of South Georgia plantations are on permanent display at a popular hotel in the region that regularly hosts quail hunting events, as it is again this week. Most of the quail hunting plantations that the area is known for are privately owned and hunting there is for family and guests, many of which fly in from around the country throughout the Nov-Feb wild bird season. There are also many commercial plantations in the area which offer great hunting opportunities from Oct-March, but there's quite a bit of difference in hunting on the preserves vs the humbling speed of the reclusive wild birds. Wild birds simply can't handle the pressure that a steady diet of paying customers would bring. As for the loss of wild birds in North Georgia and most of the country, the culprit is primarily the loss of habitat. There are a variety of things that wild birds need in order to survive, starting with a couple of thousand acres of contagious habitat, enough sunlight to allow the needed ground cover, regularly disturbed (ideally every 2 years) sections from fire and soil dicing (which creates the preferred nesting habitat), areas left for escape, and other spots that grow weeds that will propagate seeds and insects to benefit the broods that are hatched from June-early October. Vast homogeneous commercial timber tracts, large unmanaged closed canopy federal forests, small tracts, large ag fields, and shopping centers just won't do. If you want quail, you have to give up much of the economic benefits of land ownership that most owners/investors require. As for the traditional English countryside attire and high bird shooting, that is a style of pheasant hunting that is very popular in much of Northern England. In a way it is similar to our commercial quail hunting preserves as in both cases the birds are raised and released, as compared to the much more exclusive red grouse hunting in England that has some similarities with our wild quail hunting as both birds are a limited resource and hunting is primarily available to those that are either well-connected or have large budgets. Thanks again for your questions and good luck in the field!

A LifeVac is a special device used to help save people from choking. It works by creating a strong suction to pull out whatever is stuck in someone's throat, allowing them to breathe again. The device has a mask that fits over the person's mouth and nose. When you push down and pull up on the handle, it creates a vacuum that can dislodge the object. LifeVac is easy to use and can be a lifesaver in emergencies when someone is choking and can't breathe. It's important because it can be used quickly and easily, even by people who are not trained medical professionals, to help save lives.

Spirit Identifies Fallen Soldiers
After the Civil War, many communities "adopted" the graves of unknown soldiers, lavishing them with care and ceremony. Four graves in north Georgia were tended by employees of the Western and Atlantic Railroad.
Two of the graves, along the tracks near Adairsville, intrigued Alice B. Howell. During a table-tapping séance around 1939, Alice asked the spirits to identify the two Confederates. The table obliged and tapped out the names Jack Kirby and Tice Furrow. The spirit world, it turned out, knew its soldiers. Research in the National Archives confirmed the identity of Furrow, and the federal government supplied a regulation veterans' headstone. There were too many J. Kirbys for a definite identification, so Alice ordered a stone for that grave. On May 1, 1974, the comrades were reinterred at Adairsville's East View Cemetery attended by local, state, and federal officials.
Two Confederate graves remain at Allatoona Pass-one to the south, the other to the north-and the railroad still cares for them. The most accessible is to the south, and the graves have generated several paranormal stories, including the wandering spirits of the men and a ghost dog that chases passing trains.

This map has a lot of issues, so I spent an unnecessary amount of time fact-checking all the shows and where they're located. Places in "italicised quotes" aren't real places. Using the "town, state" format even for big cities to make things clearer. I know probably too much about American geography for someone who's never been there, and I still get confused.
CORRECT
Molly of Denali: "Qyah", Alaska Clarence: "Aberdale", Arizona South Park: "South Park", Colorado The Amazing World of Gumball: "Elmore", California Sit Down, Shut Up: "Knob Haven", Florida Squidbillies: "Dougal County", Georgia Lilo & Stitch: The Series: Unnamed locality in Kauai, Hawaii Napoleon Dynamite: Preston, Idaho Twelve Forever: "Bethune", Iowa Courage the Cowardly Dog: "Nowhere", Kansas Hoops: "Lenwood", Kentucky Bunnicula: New Orleans, Louisiana The Spooktacular New Adventures of Casper: Friendship, Maine Craig of the Creek: "Herkleton", Maryland The Loud House: "Royal Woods", Michigan The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends: "Frostbite Falls", Minnesota Ellen's Acres: A hotel outside Tonopah, Nevada Assy McGee: Exeter, New Hamspshire Kid Cosmic: Unnamed town, New Mexico Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: New York, New York Big Mouth: Westchester County, New York The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants: Piqua, Ohio Gravity Falls: Gravity Falls, Oregon Arthur: "Elwood City", Pennsylvania (confirmed by the show's official Twitter) Little Bill: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Family Guy: "Quahog", Rhode Island The Legend of Calamity Jane: Deadwood, South Dakota King of the Hill: "Arlen", Texas (Didn't even look this one up until I needed the city name) Beavis and Butt-Head: "Highland", Texas (The state wasn't made explicit until the 2022 movie Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe) American Dad!: "Langley Falls", Virginia Rick and Morty: Somewhere outside Seattle, Washington
CORRECT, BUT
The Owl House: "Gravesfield", Connecticut (Much more heavily set in Bonesborough in the Boiling Isles, which is not a real place, though a few episodes do return to Gravesfield) Steven Universe: "Beach City", "Delmarva" (The landmasses are a little different in the universe of Steven... Universe, and the state of Delaware doesn't exist, but an official map labels the body of water north of Beach City as Rehoboth Bay, which is a real bay in Delaware, and would put Beach City in the same location as the real-world Long Neck, Delaware) (RIP to everything south of Indian River Bay, though) Fetch! with Ruff Ruffman: Boston, Massachusetts (This is a live action kid's game show with an animated host, so I'm not sure it qualifies as an animated series) Infinity Train: North Branch, Minnesota (The show is set on a magical train that travels through an otherworldly desert. The main human character of the first season is from Minnesota, but she spends almost the entire season trapped on the train, and the other seasons follow different characters, and generally spend even less time on Earth) Futurama: "New New York", "New New York" (New New York City is explicitly built over the ruins of its real-world counterpart, and is basically New York But Futuristic)
IMPLIED
Rugrats: Unnamed city (All indications point to California) Garfield and Friends: Unnamed City (Garfield is very occasionally stated to take place in Muncie, Indiana, where its creator Jim Davis lives, but I don't know if the Garfield and Friends show ever brings this up. I don't think US Acres was ever given a location) Bob's Burgers: "Seymour's Bay" (Evidence points to New Jersey, but it's never made explicit) (I'm finding conflicting things on whether Seymour's Bay is the canon name or an out-of-universe nickname) Jimmy Neutron: "Retroville" (A Texas number plate is visible in the movie, and a line on a map showing a trip the characters take in one episode clearly starts in Texas. Otherwise, the state is never specified)
UNCLEAR
Recess: Unnamed city (One episode has the kids take the Arkansas Elementary School Achievement Test, which is the basis for it being put in Arkansas in this map. Coordinates given in another episode would put the school in Pennsylvania) Regular Show: "City" (A few things indicate California, including the state flag being visible in one episode, but other things contradict this and place it further east) Curious George: "City" (The location was never given in the books, but the show has a line that says that the airport the characters are currently at is in Chicago, Illinois) The Boondocks: "Woodcrest" (The comic strip is definitely set in Maryland, but the show has some indications early on that it's set in Chicago, Illinois, with the exception of an episode where the main characters fly back to Chicago to attend a funeral. Later episodes imply that the show is set in Maryland) The Chicken Squad: Unnamed locality (An episode about a lost phone implies that the show is set in North Dakota. I can't find much more than that) Harvey Girls Forever!: "Harvey Street" (One episode includes a view from space of a bright light on the street, but the location is vague, and looks more like Missouri than Oklahoma to me. A showrunner confirmed on Twitter that this shot did not mean the show was set in Kansas, and that the street is actually "located in the great state of… oops, out of characters!") Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood: "The Neighborhood of Make-Believe" (Disclaimer: I never saw Mr Rogers' Neighborhood because it's an extremely North American thing. But I think the title neighbourhood was literally supposed to be Fred Rogers' neighbourhood in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, while the Neighborhood of Make-Believe was always an imaginary place with no real-world counterpart.) Peanuts: Unnamed City (I'm not sure which Peanuts animated series this is on the map, but the comics never make the location explicit. The closest is a strip from 1957, in which Lucy shows off a trophy that names her "Outstanding Fussbudget of Hennepin County". That would place the setting in Minnesota, in or near Minneapolis. But a later strip from 1963 introduces a character named 555 95472, whose surname has been changed to his ZIP code. ZIP code 95472 is in Sebastopol, California, where Charles Shultz's studio was.) Hey Arnold!: "Hillwood" (There are a lot of indications that the series takes place in the US part of the Pacific Northwest, so Oregon, Washington or Idaho. And at the end of one episode, Helga and her mother are seen driving past a "Welcome To Washington State" sign when returning from out of state. But there are also some implications that it takes place in New York City, particularly with the architecture, and the way the school is numbered)
DEFINITELY INCORRECT
Sniz & Fondue: Unnamed locality (Only source on being located in Missouri seems to be an addition to the Wikipedia page in November 2006 with no edit reason given) Big City Greens: "Big City" (The show is based in part on the creators' childhood in rural Michigan, but the show itself never mentions a state.) (If Michigan gets Big City Greens, might as well give Alabama Phineas and Ferb for similar reasons. Give the south something.) Sheep in the Big City: "The Big City" (Only source on being located in Missouri seems to be an addition to the Wikipedia page in January 2010) with no edit reason given) Daria: "Lawndale" (The setting of the show is unclear, but it doesn't appear to be set in Texas. The setting is extremely urban northeast, in my opinion. In an interview, one of the show creators said that he thought of the setting as being a mid-Atlantic suburb, and gave Maryland and Pennsylvania as possible locations. The idea that the show is in Texas seems to be based on the show being a spin-off of Beavis and Butt-Head, but Daria's family explicitly moved to Lawndale from Highland at the beginning of the first episode.) Chalkzone: "Plainville" (Only source on being located in Wisconsin seems to be an addition to the Wikipedia page in November 2006 with no edit reason given)
OTHER POSSIBILITIES (not on the map)
-The Ace Ventura: Pet Detective cartoon is set in Miami, Florida, and has a lot more episodes than Sit Down, Shut up -The Beetlejuice cartoon is set in "Peaceful Pines", Connecticut, and has more episodes than the Owl House, as well as seeming to spend more time in the real world. -I don't know much about China, IL, but it is unambiguously set in Illinois, unlike Curious George, or the Boondocks. Has less episodes than either of those, though. -Soul Eater is set in "Death City", Nevada, and only has one less episode than Ellen's Acres, with double the running time. -If Big Mouth is a runner-up for New York, Archer should be too. Even discounting the seasons that moved the setting to Los Angeles, or Los Angeles but in the 40s, or a fictional Pacific Island, or space, it's got more episodes than Big Mouth. -The animated show set in the District of Columbia with the most episodes is either Our Cartoon President, or Freakazoid!, depending on how you define an episode. Couldn't find anything for any of the US's overseas territories.
Longest Running Cartoon Set in Each State (based off of number of episodes)
#I actually wrote this months ago and forgot to post it#No clue how to tag it#misconceptions#I guess?#That one person going around editing random categories onto Wikipedia articles in November 2006 has several things to answer for#Kind of surprised that there was no cartoon I could find set in Puerto Rico but also not that surprised#...Oh wow the reblog viewer doesn't keep the readmore so the whole thing's down there#Sorry about that!

What Steps Can I Take to Have Thanksgiving a Great Time for Everyone, Including My Dog?
Holidays are always great times. Although most holidays mean that “we get a day off from work”, there are a lot of other things that go on besides that. Different holidays mean different things. On the 4th of July, we usually gather with our friends outside somewhere, fire up the barbeque, and watch fireworks.
On Easter we normally go to church and then look for Easter eggs with our kids. On Memorial Day we remember the sacrifices that so many American soldiers gave so that we could live in the land of the free and the brave.
Many of our holidays are based on the premise that we will be sharing it with our family. Many of our family could be the ones we live with every day, and many could be the ones that have traveled across the country to share that time with us. Although most of these holidays are still only one day long, the activities and conditions related to these holidays could last for several days or more.
Holidays are special and there are often unique activities that take place on them. Since they are “our holidays”, we understand this and are prepared for the day. The problem is that our dog normally has no idea what is taking place. On top of that, we probably haven’t adjusted our “holiday action plan” to include their participation and natural reactions. Thanksgiving is such a holiday. We know what is going on, but our dog doesn’t have a clue. This could be bad.
Robin and I have a great dog training article that explains what to do to prepare your family, your family guests, and your dog for the events and conditions surrounding the celebration of Thanksgiving. Please take a moment and read our dog training blog titled “What Steps Can I Take to Have Thanksgiving a Great Time for Everyone, Including My Dog”.

Two “established” or tax-supported churches were conspicuous in 1775: the Anglican church and the Congregational church. A considerable segment of the population did not worship in any church; and in those colonies that maintained an “established” religion, only a minority of the people belonged to it.
The Church of England, whose members were commonly called Anglicans, became the official faith in Georgia, North and South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, and a part of New York. Established also in England, it served in America as a major prop of kingly authority; British officials naturally made vigorous attempts to impose it on additional colonies (ran into wall of opposition). In America the Anglican Church fell distressingly short of its promise; secure and self-satisfied, like its parent in England, it clung to a faith that was less fierce and more worldly than the religion of Puritanical New England (sermons were shorter; hell less scorching; and amusements, like hunting, were less scorned). So dismal was the reputation of the Anglican clergy in seventeenth-century Virginia that the College of William and Mary was founded in 1693 to train a better class of clerics for the church
The influential Congregational Church, which had grown out of the Puritan Church, was formally established in all the New England colonies, except independent-minded Rhode Island. At first Massachusetts taxed residents to support Congregationalism but later relented and exempted members of other denominations. Presbyterianism, though closely associated, was never made official. Ministers of the gospel, from the Bible to world, grappled burning political issues; as the start revolution against the British crown could be heard, sedition flowed free from pulpits; Presbyterianism, Congregationalism, and rebellion became a neo-trinity.
Many leading Anglican clergymen, aware of which side their tax-provided bread was buttered on, naturally supported their king. Anglicans in the New World were seriously handicapped by not having a resident bishop, whose presence would be convenient for the ordination of young ministers (had to travel to England to be ordained). On the eve of the Revolution there was serious talk of creating an American bishopric, but the scheme was violently opposed by many non-Anglicans, who feared a tightening of the royal reins
Religious toleration had indeed made enormous strides in America. Roman Catholics were still generally discriminated against, as in England, even in office-holding; but there were fewer Catholics in America, and hence the anti-papist laws were less severe. The anti-papist laws were also less strictly enforced; and in general, people could worship, or not worship, as they pleased
In all the colonial churches, religion was less fervid in the early eighteenth century than it had been a century earlier, in the beginning. The Puritan churches in particular sagged under the weight of two burdens: their elaborate theological doctrines and their compromising efforts to liberalize membership requirements. Churchgoers increasingly complained about the “dead dogs” who droned out tedious, overerudite sermons from Puritan pulpits. Some ministers, on the other hand, worried that many of their parishioners had gone soft and that their souls were no longer kindled by the hellfire of orthodox Calvinism; liberal ideas began to challenge the old-time religious beliefs of churchgoers. Some worshipers now proclaimed that human beings were not necessarily predestined to damnation and might save themselves by good works; even more threatening were the doctrines of the Arminians, follows of Dutch theologian Jacobus Arminius, who preached that individual free will determined a person’s eternal fate. Pressured by these “heresies,” a few churches grudgingly conceded that spiritual conversion was not necessary for church membership; together these twin trends toward clerical intellectualism and lay liberalism were sapping the spiritual vitality from denominations.
The stage was thus set for a rousing religious revival. Known as the Great Awakening, it exploded in the 1730s and 1740s and swept through the colonies like a fire through prairie grass. The Awakening was first ignited in Northampton, Massachusetts by an intellectual pastor, Jonathan Edwards; perhaps the deepest theological mind in America, Edwards proclaimed with burning righteousness the folly of believing in salvation through good works and affirmed need for complete dependence on God’s grace. Warming to his subject, he painted in lurid detail the landscape of hell and the eternal torments of the damned—“Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” was the title of one of his most famous sermons. Edwards’s preaching style was learned and closely reasoned, but his stark doctrines sparked a warmly sympathetic reaction among his parishioners in 1734; four years later English parson George Whitefield loosed a different style of preaching on America and touched off a conflagration of religious ardor that revolutionized spiritual life. A former alehouse attendant, Whitefield was an orator of rare gifts. His magnificent voice boomed sonorously over thousands of enthralled listeners in an open field (many were envious of him). Triumphantly touring the colonies, Whitefield trumpeted his message of human helplessness of divine omnipotence; during those roaring revival meetings, many sinners professed conversion. Whitefield soon inspired American imitators (style of preaching). Orthodox clergymen, known as “old lights,” were deeply skeptical of the emotionalism and the theatrical antics of the revivalists; “new light” ministers, defended the Awakening for its role in revitalizing religion. Congregationalists and Presbyterians split over this issue, and many of the believers in religious conversion went over to the Baptists and other sects more prepared to make room for emotion in religion
6. The Awakening left many lasting effects; its emphasis on direct, emotive spirituality seriously undermined the older clergy, whose authority had derived from their education and erudition
a. The schisms it set off in many denominations greatly increased the numbers and the competitiveness of American churches
b. It encouraged a fresh wave of missionary work among the Indians and even among black slaves, many of whom had to attend revivals
c. It led to the founding of “new light” centers of higher learning such as Princeton, Brown, Rutgers, and Dartmouth
d. Perhaps most significant, the Great Awakening was the first spontaneous mass movement of the American people; it tended to break down sectional boundaries as well as denominational lines and contributed to the growing sense that Americans had of themselves as a single people, united by a common history

1. A time-honored English idea regarded education as a blessing reserved for the aristocratic few, not for the unwashed many; education should be for leadership, not citizenship, and primarily for males; only slowly and painfully did the colonists break the chains of these restrictions
2. Puritan New England, largely for religious reasons, was more zealously interested in education than any other section of the colonies
a. Dominated by the Congregational Church, it stressed the need for Bible reading by the individual worshiper; the primary goal of the clergy was to make good Christians rather than good citizens
b. Education, principally for boys, flourished almost from the outset in New England; this densely populated region boasted an impressive number of graduates from the English universities, especially Cambridge, the intellectual center of England’s Puritanism
c. New Englanders, relatively early, established primary and secondary schools, which varied widely in the quality of instruction and in the length of time that their doors remained open each year
d. Back-straining farm labor drained much of youths’ time and energy
3. Fairly adequate elementary schools were also hammering knowledge into the heads of reluctant “scholars” in the middle colonies and South
a. Some of these institutions were tax-supported; others were privately operated; the South, with its white and black population diffused over wide areas, was severely handicapped logically in attempting to establish an effective school system (wealth families had tutors)
b. The general atmosphere in the colonial schools and colleges continued grim and gloomy; most emphasis was placed on religion and on the classical languages, Latin and Greek
c. The focus was not on experiment and reason, but on doctrine and dogma; the age of one of orthodoxy, and independence of thinking was discouraged—discipline was quite severe (whipping occurred)
4. College education was regarded—at least at first in New England—as more important that instruction in the ABCs; churches would wither if a new crop of ministers was not trained to lead the spiritual flocks
5. Many well-to-do families, especially in the South, sent their boys abroad to English institutions in order to receive a college education
6. For purposes of convenience and economy, nine local colleges were established during the colonial era—Harvard, William and Mary, Yale, Princeton, Pennsylvania, Columbia, Brown, Rutgers, and Dartmouth
a. Student enrollments were small, numbering about 200 boys; at one time, a few lads as young as eleven were admitted to Harvard
b. Instruction was poor by present-day standards and the curriculum was still heavily loaded with theology and the “dead” languages
c. A significant contribution was made by Benjamin Franklin, who played a major role in launching what became the University of Pennsylvania, the first college free from denominational control
J. A Provincial Culture
1. When it came to art and culture, colonial Americans were still in thrall to European tastes, especially British; the simplicity of pioneering life had not yet bred many homespun patrons of the arts
a. Like so many of his talented artistic contemporaries, Trumbull was forced to travel to London to pursue his ambitions
b. Charles Willson Peale best known for his portraits of George Washington, ran a museum, stuffed birds, and practiced dentistry
c. Gifted Benjamin West and John Singleton Copley succeeded in their ambition to become famous painters, but like Trumbull they had to go to England to complete their training
d. Only abroad could they find subjects who had the leisure to sit for their portraits and the money to pay handsomely for them
e. Copley was regarded as a Loyalist during the Revolutionary War, and West, a close friend of George II and official court painter, was buried in London’s St. Paul’s Cathedral following his death
2. Architecture was largely imported from the Old World and modified to meet the peculiar climatic and religious conditions of the New World
a. Even the lowly log cabin was apparently borrowed from Sweden
b. The red-bricked Georgian style, so common in the pre-Revolutionary decades, was introduced about 1720 and is best exemplified by the beauty of now-restored Williamsburg, Virginia
3. Colonial literature, like art, was generally undistinguished, and for much the same reasons; one noteworthy exception was the poet Phillis Wheatley, a slave girl in Boston at eight and never formally educated
a. Taken to England when she was twenty, she published a verse book and subsequently wrote polished poems that revealed the influence of Alexander Pope; her verse were one of the best of the period
b. The remarkable fact is that she could overcome her severely disadvantaged background and write poetry at all
4. Versatile Benjamin Franklin, often called “the first civilized American,” also shone as a literary light among other things
a. Although his autobiography is a classic, he was best known to his contemporaries for Poor Richard’s Almanack (edited 1732 to 1758)
b. This publication, containing many pithy sayings culled from the thinkers of the ages, emphasized such virtues as thrift, industry, morality, and common sense—Honesty is the best policy, plough deep while sluggards sleep, and fish and visitors stink in three days
c. Poor Richard’s was well known in Europe and was more widely read in America than anything except the Bible (teacher of old and young, Franklin had influence in shaping the American character)
5. Science, rising above the shackles of superstition, was making some progress, though lagging behind the Old World’s progress
a. A few botanists, mathematicians, and astronomers had won some repute, but Benjamin Franklin was perhaps the only first-rank scientists produced in the American colonies
b. Franklin’s spectacular but dangerous experiments, including the famous kite-flying episode proving that lightning was a form of electricity, won him numerous honors in Europe
c. But his mind also had a practical turn, and among his numerous inventions were bifocal spectacles and the highly efficient stove
d. His lightning rod, not surprisingly was condemned by some stodgy clergymen who felt it was “presuming on God” by attempting to control the “artillery of the heavens” (the lightning)
K. Pioneer Presses
1. Americans were generally too poor to buy quantities of books and too busy to read them; however a few private libraries of fair size could be found, especially among the clergy and rich families in the colonies
a. The Byrd family of Virginia enjoyed perhaps the largest collection in the colonies, consisting of about four thousand volumes
b. Bustling Benjamin Franklin established in Philadelphia the first privately supported circulating library in America; and by 1776 there were about fifty public libraries and collections available
2. Hand-operated printing presses cranked out pamphlets, leaflets, and journals; on the eve of the Revolution, there were about forty colonial newspapers, chiefly weeklies that consisted of a single large sheet
a. Columns ran heavily to somber essays, frequently signed with pseudonyms and the “news” often lagged many weekends behind the event especially in the case of oversea happenings
b. Newspapers proved to be a powerful agency for airing colonial grievances an rallying oppositions to the British crown’s control
3. A celebrated legal case, in 1734-1735, involved John Peter Zenger, a newspaper printer; significantly, the case arose in New York, reflecting the tumultuous give-and-take of politics in the middle colonies
a. Zenger’s newspaper had assailed the corrupt royal governor; charged with seditious libel, the accused was hauled to court where he was defended by a former indentured servant, Andrew Hamilton
b. Zenger argued that he had printed the truth but the royal chief justice instructed the jury not to consider the truth or falsity; the fact of printing, irrespective of the truth, was enough to convict
c. Hamilton countered that “the very liberty of both exposing and opposing arbitrary power” was at stake; swayed by his eloquence, the jurors defied the judges and returned a verdict of not guilty
4. The Zenger decision was a banner achievement for freedom of the press and for the health of democracy; it pointed the way to the kind of open public discussion required by the diverse society that colonial New York already was and that all America was to become
5. Although contrary to existing law and not immediately accepted by other judges and juries, in time it helped establish the doctrine that true statements about public officials could not be prosecuted as libel
6. Newspapers were thus eventually free to print responsible criticism of powerful officials though full freedom of press was unknown for a time
L. The Great Game of Politics
1. American colonists were making noteworthy contributions to politics
a. The thirteen colonial governments took a variety of forms; by 1775, eight colonies had royal governors, who were appointed by the king
b. Three—Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Delaware—were under proprietors who themselves chose the governors; two, Connecticut and Rhode Island, elected their governors under self-governing rule
2. Practically every colony utilized a two-house legislative body
a. The upper house, or council, was normally appointed by the crown in the royal colonies and by the proprietor in the proprietary colonies; it was chosen by the voters in the self-governing colonies
b. The lowerhouse, as the popular branch, was elected by the people—or rather by those who owned enough property to qualify as voters
c. In several of the colonies, the backcountry elements were seriously underrepresented, and they hated the ruling colonial group
d. Legislatures, in which the people enjoyed direct representation, voted such taxes as they chose for the necessary expenses of colonial government—self-taxation through representation was a precious privilege that Americans had come to cherish above others
3. Governors appointed by the king were generally able men, sometimes outstanding figures; some, unfortunately, were incompetent or corrupt—broken-down politicians badly in need of jobs
a. The worst of the group was probably impoverished Lord Cornbury, first cousin of Queen Anne, who was made governor of New York and New Jersey in 1702—he was a drunkard, a spendthrift, a grafter, an embezzler, a religious bigot, and a vain fool
b. Even the best appointees had trouble with the colonial legislatures, basically because the royal governor embodied a bothersome transatlantic authority some three thousand miles away
4. The colonial assemblies found various ways to assert their authority and independence; some of them employed the trick of withholding the governor’s salary unless he yielded to their wishes (he was normally in need of money so the power of the purse usually forced him to terms)
5. The London government, in leaving the colonial governor to the tender mercies of the legislature, was guilty of poor administration
a. In the interests of simple efficiency, the British authorities should have arranged to pay him from independent sources; as events turned out, control over the purse by the colonial legislatures led to prolonged bickering, which proved to be one of the irritants that generated a spirit of revolt (Parliament’s Townshend taxes of 1767)
b. Administration at the local level was varied; county government remained the rule of the plantation South; townmeeting government predominated in New England; and a modification of the two developed in the middle colonies—in the town meetings, with its open discussion and opening voting, direct democracy functioned
6. Yet the ballot was by no means a birthright; religious or property qualifications for voting, even stiffer qualifications for office holding, existed in all the colonies at the time in the late 18th century
a. The privileged upper classes, fearful of democratic excesses, were unwilling to grant the ballot to every person in the colony
b. Perhaps half of the adults whites males were thus disfranchised but because of the ease of acquiring land and thus satisfying property requirements, the right to vote was not beyond the reach of most
c. Yet somewhat surprisingly, eligible voters did not exercise this precious privilege and frequently acquiesced in the leadership of their betters who ran colonial affairs (able to vote people out office)
7. By 1775 America was not yet a true democracy—socially, economically, or politically; but it was far more democratic than England and the European continent; colonial institutions were giving freer rein to the democratic ideals of tolerance, educational advantages, equality of economic opportunity, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, and representative government
M. Colonial Folkways
1. Everyday life in the colonies was drab and tedious; for most people the labor was heavy and constant—from “can see” to “can’t see”
2. Food was plentiful, though the diet could be coarse and monotonous; Americans probably ate more bountifully, especially of meat, than any people in the Old World—Lazy/sickly was the person that was hungry
3. Basic comforts now taken for granted were lacking; churches were not heated at all; drafty homes were poorly heated, chiefly by fireplaces
a. There was no running water in the houses, no plumbing, and probably not a single bathtub in all colonial America
b. Candles and whale-oil lamps provided faint and flickering illumination; garbage disposal was so primitive that hogs ranged the streets and buzzards, protected by law, flapped over waste
4. Amusement was eagerly pursued where time and custom permitted
a. The militia assembled periodically for “musters”, which consisted of several days of drilling, liberally interspersed with merry-making
b. On the frontier, pleasure was often combined with work at house-raising, quilting bees, husking bees, and apple parings
c. Funerals and weddings everywhere afforded opportunities for social gathering, which customarily involved the swilling of much liquor
5. Winter sports were common in the North, whereas in the South card playing, horse racing, cockfighting, dancing and fox hunting
6. Over diversions beckoned; lotteries were universally approved, even by the clergy, and were used to raise money for churches and colleges
7. Stage plays became popular in the South but were frowned upon in Quaker and Puritan colonies and in some places forbidden by law; many of the New England clergy saw playacting as time-consuming and immoral—they preferred religious lectures (spiritual satisfaction)
8. Holidays were everywhere celebrated in the American colonies, but Christmas was frowned upon in New England as an offensive reminder
9. Thanksgiving Day came to be American festival for it combined thanks to God with an opportunity for jollification, gorging, and guzzling
10. By the mid-eighteenth century, Britain’s several North American colonies, despite their differences, revealed some striking similarities
a. All were basically English in language and customs, and Protestant in religion, while the widespread presence of other peoples and faiths compelled every colony to cede at least some degree of ethnic and religious toleration (as compared to contemporary Europe)
b. They all afforded to enterprising individuals unusual opportunities for social mobility; they all possessed some measure of self-government, though by no means complete democracy
c. Communication and transportation among the colonies were improving; British North America by 1775 looked like a patchwork quilt—each part slightly different, but stitched together by common origins, common ways of life, and common beliefs in toleration, economic development and above all, were somewhat self-ruled
d. Fatefully, all the colonies were also separated from the seat of imperial authority by a vast ocean some three thousand miles wide; these simple facts of shared history, culture, and geography set the stage for the colonists’ struggle to unite as an independent people

The Carolina Dog: America’s Forgotten Breed
Indigenous to the United States, the Carolina Dog is a rare, primitive canine strain and fairly new to domesticity. They’re medium in size, nimble, and independent; they’re also known for being veritably clean tykes.
The Carolina Dog is also occasionally called the Yellow Dog, the American Dingo, the Dixie Dingo, and the Yaller. They were feral and lived in the Southeastern United States hundreds of times, and they’re still set up in the wild in some corridors of Georgia and South Carolina.
Carolina Dogs are presumably not going to be exorbitantly tender but will form close bonds with their humans. Show them strong leadership and let them know you’re in charge when training. They may act reticent and cautious of nonnatives, but they don’t tend to bear aggressively.
Doggies of this strain are pack tykes through and through, and they’d thrive in multi-dog and person homes, forming loving bonds with other tykes and humans likewise. They have a high prey drive, so you must watch them nearly around other small creatures.
They love big families and big homes with yards where they can run around. Carolina Dogs are incredibly pious to their humans and sweet and sportful with kiddies.
DogTime recommends this canine bed to give a good night’s sleep to your medium-sized Carolina Dog. You should also pick up this canine-cost toy to help burn off your doggy’s high energy!
Origin: United States
Height: 17.75-19.5 inches
Weight: 30-55 pounds
size: 3-6 puppies
LifeSpan: 13 to15 years
Color: Tan, brown, black, red, cream, or a color combination
Breed Characteristics Of Carolina
Carolina Dogs are generally shy and suspicious in nature, but once a canine accepts a mortal into its pack, those actions vanish toward that mortal. A sighthound of medium figure, they have the general appearance of a jackal or wolf.
Carolina tykes are descended from the doggies that accompanied the Paleo- Indians who traveled from Asia to North America over the Bering land ground.
moment, they can still be set up living wild near the Georgia- South Carolina border, but have also been seen as far north as Ohio and Pennsylvania and as far west as Arizona; pastoral areas are the common denominator.
The typical Carolina canine has refocused cognizance, a fox- suchlike conk, and a tail that curves like a fishhook when it’s raised. They look analogous to Australian Dingoes but, taxonomically, they fall under Canis familiaris.
History
A nod to the strain’s pack intelligence, the Carolina Dog descended from a group of primitive tykes that migrated with the first primitive humans across the Bering land ground from Asia into North America
The tykes ’ remains were set up near other bones from the Southwest Indians, and from there, they moved into Central and South America, as well as the eastern United States.
Studies of free-ranging tykes from the Southeast have revealed these primitive tykes ’ continued actuality. Their appearance, not to mention geste, further indicates a close strain with, or decent from, these primitive tykes
Named the Carolina Dog, and also generally called the American Dingo, the strain was honored by the United Kennel Club in 1995.
Appearance
When a Carolina dog dashes by, you might think you’ve just spotted an Australian dingo. In fact, the resemblance between the two is so strong that Carolina dogs are often called the “Carolina dingo” or “American dingo.”
A Carolina canine is medium-sized with a thin- yet- important frame. His short fur can be unheroic, red, blond, white, black, or black and tan. Some Carolina tykes have white markings along their belly, casket, and throat. Dark sable or mask tails are also possible.
His cognizance, a defining specific of the strain, stands altitudinous and nearly looks a little too big for his long, triangular head. His almond-shaped eyes allude to his intelligence and are most frequently brown, however, there are unheroic and indeed blue-eyed Carolina tykes.
At his other end, his long tail is shaped like a” fish hook,” and reflective of his feelings — wagging with his family and held low around nonnatives, according to the Carolina Dog Club of America( CDCA).
Temperament
As a primitive strain that hasn’t been subject to picky parentage, Carolina canine grains tend to be shy and suspicious. Early socialization and obedience training are vital for a Carolina canine puppy dog to grow into a well-acclimated grown-up.
” They’re great once you earn their trust, but they can be a little more suspicious in nature and a little shy in the morning,” says Laura Pletz, DVM and Scientific Services director at Royal Canin.
Because of his pack intelligence, he’s steadfastly pious to his humans. He might not be exorbitantly snuggly during movie night, but his favorite conditioning — hiking, running, and exploring are each more when you are by his side.
A Carolina canine has putatively endless energy and needs diurnal exercise, says Haylee Bergland, CPDT- KA, CBCC- KA, RBT, editor of pet health and geste at Daily Paws.
Indeed if you wake up beforehand to take your canine on a jam or hike, he will want to head back out again in the autumn. He needs an active proprietor who can keep up with his energetic station.
