#the 2nd pic was my attempt at a sort of party pic

October 2nd 1721 saw the little known Battle of Coille Bhan.
This was more of a skirmish in real terms, but history recall it as a battle, to me the numbers involved make it less so. The way I look at it is that this was also an attempt by the Government of the, still quite new, Union, to impose some sort of rule to the Highland Clans, in this instance it can also go down as leading from an often overlooked Jacobite uprising in 1719, called The “Little Rising“.
The background was that government forces had failed to take the lands of Mackenzie of Seaforth. The taxes being collected by Mackenzie's factor, Donald Murchison were being sent to Mackenzie himself who was living in exile in France for his part in the '15 Jacobite uprising, after which his lands were forfeited to the crown. It was decided that a second attempt should be made to seize Mackenzie of Seaforth's estates.
This time 160 soldiers of Colonel Kirk's regiment left under the command of a Captain McNeil, who unlike their predecessors who had been ambushed in Glen Affric, McNeil took a longer but easier route from Inverness to Dingwall then onto Strath-Garve and Loch Carron.Mackenzie's force were led by Colonel Donald Murchison who had led the ambush at Glen Affric, and I bloody wish my spell check didn't keep trying to make me say Africa instead of Affric!!!
Anyway the Colonel marched his men up a mountain pass called Mam Attadale, a "gallant" relative, named Kenneth Murchison volunteered to attempt an ambush with a small party of 13 at Coille Bhan (White Wood), while the bulk of the party should remain where they were.
Captain McNeil with 18 men of his government force advanced on Kenneth Murchison's position. They received fire in which several of the government troops were wounded and one was killed. McNeil persisted in attacking his enemy and eventually he defeated them and Kenneth Murchison's men withdrew, as they were unable to resist any further, there is no mention of the Jacobite's losses.
The long and short of it is, although Captain McNeil had defeated this advance force, he soon heard of the larger group of Mackenzies waiting at Attadale under the command of Donald Murchison, unwilling to take on these men, who also held the high ground McNeil, himself wounded retreated and high-tailed it back to Inverness.
Kenneth Murchison quickly rejoined Colonel Donald on Mam Attadale, with the cheering intelligence that one salvo of thirteen guns had repelled the hundred and sixty red-coats. No further attempts were made on Mackenzie of Seaforth's lands.
This episode confirmed the view in the south that the Jacobite clans equated with banditry and disorder, but Donald Murchison was also a bold man, reading on, in the History of The Mackenzies he appeared in Edinburgh two years later with £200 in back rents, looking for someone to take it over to France, he was not so stupid as to make himself conspicuous and is said to have been wearing "the garb of a lowlander", he did however spend two weeks in the capital, and although he was a wanted man went unmolested during this time.
Mackenzie of Seaforth, also known as William dubh MacKenzie or Black MacKenzie, like may other Jacobites during earlier uprisings, was later pardoned and returned returned to Scotland in 1726, he died in 1740.
During the '45 uprising, such was the split across The Highlands one of his sons fought on the Hanoverian side in the campaign, whereas a large part of the Clan Mackenzie followed the chief's cousin George Mackenzie, 3rd Earl of Cromartie chose to fight for the Jacobite cause.
The pics shows moorland and Lochcarron, the expanse of land that Clan MacKenzie enjoyed as their own, and their clan crest with the motto Luceo Non Uro (I shine, not burn). MacCoinneach the Gaelic name for the clan means son of the fair bright one.

Zelda & Zach
ihatemyguts: Good thing you told me how bubble boy posi Robyn’s ‘rents are
ihatemyguts: ‘cos that felt like such a brush-off
ihatemyguts: I feel kinda bad, it’s low-key just upset her with no shopping trip pay-off 😬
inandout: your first date was today
inandout: the insane jealousy must have forced me to forget
ihatemyguts: Obviously
ihatemyguts: moping and staring out of open windows would be bad for your health
ihatemyguts: probably
ihatemyguts: can’t have that
inandout: mope hard enough and fling myself all over the house, they’ll call it exercise
ihatemyguts: I’d let Rob know but her parents would probably sue me
ihatemyguts: I did some research
ihatemyguts: and yeah, flare-ups fucking suck, but if she was struggling that bad rn she’d be in hospital getting her 💉 on
ihatemyguts: makes me ⁉️ if the meetup will happen
inandout: makes me wonder if her brothers are allowed out
inandout: if they are maybe they can help us smuggle her to the meetup
ihatemyguts: not just a pretty face
ihatemyguts: that’s a damn good idea
ihatemyguts: I can slide in their DMs
inandout: Cranking up the jealousy metre to give me a full work out, I see, are you gonna be a PE teacher when you grow up?
ihatemyguts: *prays they aren’t like 12*
ihatemyguts: imagine if that was my life’s ambition
ihatemyguts: wear unflattering sportswear and give kids complexes
ihatemyguts: even without the potential life-shortening illness, I’d reconsider that
inandout: it tracks that you’d wanna make them 💩 and bringing back the bleep test could work
ihatemyguts: okay I’m not 🦹♀️ or 🐯 levels of sweet but is that what you really think of me? 😏
inandout: I think there’s only one rebel teacher coming to mind and I haven’t watched that film so all I know is they stand on desks
inandout: probably not a perfect fit for you
ihatemyguts: I could force you to watch it for our first date
ihatemyguts: and ask you, what your dream job would be
inandout: Netflix and chill or cinema screening of the ‘classics’?
inandout: we could do a drive-thru
ihatemyguts: hmm 🤔
ihatemyguts: there are pluses to ‘em all
ihatemyguts: cinema, we could laugh at all the snobs and 🤓s
inandout: Cool, reach out to me with the time + date when it’s showing
inandout: Are you allowed 🍿?
ihatemyguts: oh hell no
ihatemyguts: have to find another way to hold my hand
inandout: 🦸♀️ said she was gonna look up ice breakers and stuff, hopefully it was a fruitful search and she won’t mind sharing the info
ihatemyguts: do you think she legit didn’t realize how thirsty that boy was for her
ihatemyguts: or is it all uwu coy-ness
inandout: It’s hard to tell
inandout: but if I remember my glasses I’ll do my best to decode her body language from 6 ft away
ihatemyguts: aside from hospital, have you ever met someone else with cf?
inandout: Nope
inandout: jokes aside, it really is discouraged
ihatemyguts: that’s a hard one to get your head around
ihatemyguts: far as adjustments go
inandout: getting Robbie at this meetup won’t be easy
inandout: separate ones mean we might not have her there
ihatemyguts: I reckon we can trust you and Kara to keep the teen love story fictional
ihatemyguts: for all our sake’s
inandout: She’ll get her man
inandout: it’s not like bad advice and dating pitfalls are just a click away
ihatemyguts: cosmos never steered ANYONE wrong
inandout: Yahoo answers neither
ihatemyguts: might be confused as to why they’re not related
inandout: [I like to think he’s just sending his fave yahoo answer answers now for the lols]
ihatemyguts: [meme back and forth lads]
ihatemyguts: if she gets her date we could go into the matchmaker business
ihatemyguts: start at home
ihatemyguts: 🤖 don’t last forever
inandout: Rob’ll need to be next or she won’t forgive us
inandout: and we’ll soon get tired/guilty of seeing the amount of 😿💔 spam the chat
ihatemyguts: we’ll have to liberate her first
ihatemyguts: in a literal way
ihatemyguts: not the pretentious, free your 🧠 type of vibe
inandout: Kidnap’s playing into her parents’ fears but we don’t have a better option
ihatemyguts: now it’s my turn for a potential 💡
ihatemyguts: what if that is exactly what she should do
inandout: jump scare them?
ihatemyguts: if she did some actual wild shit to show them they’re being suffocating, ‘scuse the mention, then they’ll have to compromise and let her do normal kid things and everyone will win
ihatemyguts: I realize getting her to wild out might be a problem
ihatemyguts: catfish it though?
inandout: 💡⭐️
inandout: getting her to agree to do it for real would take longer than we have but you’re right, faking it wouldn’t take any time at all
ihatemyguts: get Lauren to picture whatever the hell she’s up to
ihatemyguts: sorted
inandout: + there’s your next photo challenge ready to be accepted, dressing as if you were going on a date with 👵🌈✨ instead
ihatemyguts: hold my neon
ihatemyguts: and think, do we clue Rob in on this plan now or do it on her behalf first, ‘cos we could hit up her house phone with some madness to get ‘em sus now and when she’s like wuuuuut it’ll sound even more
ihatemyguts: or is that a bit evil genius instead of 🦹♀️
inandout: Does she even have a house phone? We don’t
inandout: you’ll have to find another way to trick my parents into believing I’m a badass
ihatemyguts: I bet they do
ihatemyguts: can’t trust a mobile
ihatemyguts: and I bet they don’t have a microwave, they’re that sort
ihatemyguts: obvs I’ll just direct them to Lauren on your friends list with a 🤔
inandout: We should probably warn her, in case she takes it the wrong way
inandout: or decides to stand up to them for her YA movie moment
ihatemyguts: yeah, you’re right
ihatemyguts: if she doesn’t go for it, her brothers might be of use still
ihatemyguts: have to focus my evil energy elsewhere
ihatemyguts: such as…
ihatemyguts: 🥁
ihatemyguts: [one of the crazier lewks from babyteeth for the photo challenge]
inandout: 🤞🏻 one of them is old enough to drive the people carrier
inandout: Uhh… that was a suspiciously fast transformation
ihatemyguts: didn’t know you was challenging a pro?
ihatemyguts: and someone with a lot of time on her hands
inandout: I do now
inandout: and I’m guessing it’s not every day you get stood up based on what else I know about you
ihatemyguts: it’s a first
ihatemyguts: not that I constantly ask people out
ihatemyguts: but that is what I’ve put across so fair enough
ihatemyguts: what am I interrupting for you?
inandout: I’m waiting on friends
inandout: this could end in both of us being stood up
ihatemyguts: am I a drag you down with me type?
ihatemyguts: hmm
ihatemyguts: nah, I’ll cross my fingers that your friends aren’t flaky
inandout: Late, but I’d be too if it wasn’t my house
inandout: What are you gonna do now shopping’s off?
ihatemyguts: life is one big photo challenge, right
ihatemyguts: yours is ‘whatever will make your friends double-take when they open the door’
ihatemyguts: it’s a good question
ihatemyguts: we’re going to virtual shop tomorrow but she wasn’t up for it today
inandout: Wait for it and their faces
inandout: + you’re virtually invited to watch movies and play games, you won’t be the only one who isn’t here in person
ihatemyguts: 👍
ihatemyguts: cool
ihatemyguts: meeting new people is my new thing, as long as your mates are down/not the level of nerd that they might get a nosebleed if a girl is about
inandout: Some of them are girls if that helps
inandout: and my brother won’t be there to bring down the cool
ihatemyguts: low-key a shame
ihatemyguts: have to meet him before the first date though
inandout: I’ve got a father you can ask for permission if you’re feeling old-fashioned
ihatemyguts: full set
ihatemyguts: fun
ihatemyguts: mines in scotland so we’ll let you off that trek
inandout: But a road trip is a coming of age movie staple! 😫 Has Netflix aired any YA without one + are you willing to take that risk?
inandout: mine’s a workaholic but we’ve got years to catch him
ihatemyguts: forget the meds, see who gets fucked up first
ihatemyguts: it’d be a journey, for sure
ihatemyguts: do you know what he does? ‘cos so’s mine and I couldn’t tell you, tbh
inandout: Or mix them up and see what happens when you take the ones for my 💩
inandout: He’s a sales manager, he says, but why so vague?
ihatemyguts: sounds like something they’d do at cool parties
ihatemyguts: and that sounds suspish
ihatemyguts: they should have this 🤓 but with a moustache instead of the buckteeth
ihatemyguts: dads are elusive creatures… conspiracy time, what are they all up to
inandout: Not sure that’s the topic Rich has been watching vids on but I’ll ask
ihatemyguts: he can always tactfully ignore you if he’s 😳
ihatemyguts: like he does with 👵🌈✨ when she’s extra
ihatemyguts: more than usual
inandout: Be harder to do that in person
ihatemyguts: I think everyone will still get on
ihatemyguts: unless fibrofog shows, then that’ll be teen show worthy drama, of course
inandout: I think he’s genuinely blocked, he’d need a 2nd account to find out about it
ihatemyguts: hope he’s seen catfish too
inandout: He’d be a fan of the one where the man refused to believe it wasn’t Katy Perry
ihatemyguts: it does seem like the sort of thing she’d do
ihatemyguts: poor bastard
inandout: 😂
ihatemyguts: ultimate photo challenge, catfishing everyone and then going for the ruveal
ihatemyguts: might need more than just a wig 🤔😏
inandout: Dressing like her would make my friends do a double-take
inandout: [pics of some of her outrageous lewks with his head put on]
ihatemyguts: 😂😂😂
ihatemyguts: you suit the 🍦🧁🍭🍩✨
inandout: We’ve probably got a can of squirty cream lying around for hot chocolate
ihatemyguts: inhaler but make it ~sExxxIii~
inandout: [a lil video of his failed attempt to re-create that in her insta DMs or wherever because idk if they can send stuff like that here]
ihatemyguts: Katy dat you 😍😍
inandout: I’ve agreed to only string you along for 4 years not 6 and I don’t have any savings to spend 25% of on a 💍
inandout: looks like the comparison starts and stops with our black curls
ihatemyguts: not much of an orlando bloom clone myself so it’s alright
ihatemyguts: pirate is always an excellent disabled-friendly costume though so add that to the ideas board we should start
inandout: If we decide the next meetup is fancy dress, Lauren will never go back home
ihatemyguts: that’s the mood
inandout: [sends her whatever he did for the photo challenge and his friends reaction to it because why not say they’ve arrived and there’s a similar feral mood here]

Animals, Apparently, and Beautiful: ax ех D4 24739 SUPER friendly Boy. Soooo happy, playful and energetic. Rex adores people and getsp. super wiggly and waggy when you interact with him. He LOVES to cuddle and thanks you with lots of kisses. 4 yrs old, 65 lbs Waiting on Love @ Brooklyn ACC TO BE KILLED 6/1/19 Six times Rex has been in and out of the shelter. His owner comes back for him and then a bit later he is back! And through it all, Rex has remained a staff favorite - FRIENDLY, AFFECTIONATE and SO HAPPY! <3 A volunteer writes: There's friendly and then there's FRIENDLY! Rex squarely belongs in the latter category. He just adores people and gets super-wiggly and waggly when you interact with him. He thanks you with lots of face kisses, which are pretty hard to resist. He's sooooo happy and playful and has lots of energy. Rex finds everything around him to be of interest - the birds flying above, the dog being walked across the street, the stray plastic bag floating in the wind - it all fascinates him! Rex occasionally gets too focused on something, but it's very easy to distract him - just click your tongue or call to him and he'll immediately look right up at you. Better yet, give him a treat and he'll completely forget what had so absorbed him just a minute ago. Rex can also get a bit overexcited when you interact with him (he's just so playful!), but here too it's very easy to refocus his energy. When I gave him a treat, he immediately settled down and we continued our walk. If you'd like to meet this super-friendly, happy, high-energy boy, come on down to the Brooklyn ACC shelter where he's awaiting his forever home. Short volunteers note June 2018 Rex has been officially coined as "Sexy Rexy." He is truly beautiful. All the staff love him. He saw one of his favorites in the hall and literally did a hop skip in the air. When I had Rex tethered outside to get pics, I was taking pics of another dog and he got so jealous. He really is a ladies man, loves to cuddle, but he's sort of wild when he does it. He was dancing for a treat today. <3 A volunteer wrrote in 2014: Rex is a big puppy who deserves well his name. Indeed, he is royal looking and eye catching. Although his coat has the most beautiful markings, his pale greenish yellowish eyes are what makes Rex so attractive. Rex is leashed easily. He salutes on the way every single dog in his ward.He does not respond to a pooch barking at him. In the street, he eliminates right away as we exit the building, pulls a little , chases the pigeons and aims toward other dogs, curious to see them. His tail his high like it is most of the time. Free in a pen, Rex is one boisterous boy. Let’s not forget that despite his big size, Rex is ONLY…8 month old…He loves to play ball, jumps in the air to catch it or runs after it. He retrieves at my feet. Rex loves treats and will sit on command for them. He does not always listen and orders have to be repeated. Sounds familiar? Like a kid… Rex can be petted all over. He can be a little mouthy at times and jumpy. He tried once to go for the leash but a treat made him change his mind. Rex is a youngster we have at the Manhattan Care Center. He is a big boy, energetic and has a personality.. Like any puppy, he will need training to be on the same page as his new owner or family. His majesty Rex is all worth the investment that will be put into him. He could become a rockstar of a dog…Come and meet Rex…son. and make him yours… REX´ VIDEOS May 2019 Party Animal https://youtu.be/ZPyal8vaVbM Big Lug https://youtu.be/H0snPP4Gamc September 2018 https://youtu.be/NJ1Z2CuidSM June 2018 https://youtu.be/G1WXubiykY4 https://youtu.be/VZ6ZvOISzcQ August 2014 https://youtu.be/3W03uOOkB5U https://youtu.be/G1WXubiykY4 June 2014 https://youtu.be/vv6EfCE0Uqs REX, ID# 24739, 5 yrs and 1 month old, 56.8 lbs, Brooklxn Animal Care Center, Large Mixed Breed Crtoss, Brown / White Neutered Male, Returned as a Stray (was Returned to Owner 09/26/18) Shelter Assessment Rating: Medical Behavior Rating: Yellow ------------------------------------------------------ NOTES 6th STAY / Intake: 09-15-18 REX ID# 24739 Brooklyn ACC aka KINGSTON aka WILLY (ALT ID – A0995114 and A1011690) - 4 yrs old, 65 lbs Brown / White Neutered Male Returned as a Stray (was Returned To Owner in June) Intake Date: 09-15-2018 UPDATED NOTES FOR REX!! 9/24/2018 During walk with a caretaker, Rex was removed from the kennel without issue and without any attempts to cage fight with neighboring dogs.

Dog jumps on Assessor, consistently rubs his shoulder on the Assessor, and will not allow Assessor to conduct the assessment. Sensitivity:: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, eyes are averted, and tail is in neutral position with a relaxed body posture. Dog's mouth is likely closed for at least a portion of the assessment item. Tag:: 3. Dog repeatedly turns quickly away when touched, or repeatedly spins toward the touch, and repeatedly tries to exit. Dog may be crouching, tail is tucked, mouth closed, body stiff. Paw squeeze 1:: 2. Dog quickly pulls back. Paw squeeze 2:: 2. Dog quickly pull back. Toy:: 2. Dog takes toy away, keeps a firm hold. His/her body is between you and the toy, and is loose and wiggly. No growling or stiffness. Summary:: Rex was highly anxious and distracted during his assessment, seeking exiting throughout. He tolerated most handling without issue though displayed a low threshold for arousal when engaging in play. Summary (1):: Rex was brought in as a stray so his behavior around other dogs is unknown. 6/17: When off leash at the Care Center, Rex greets the novel female with a high stance, chattering a little. He becomes sexually motivated, attempting to mount her a few times but responds well to being re-directed. When she solicits his attention by barking in his face, Rex offers a slightly over the top correction- hard bark and lunge towards her. The two then move away from each other. Date of intake:: 6/16/2018 Summary:: Loose, wiggly, allowed all handling Date of initial:: 6/18/2018 Summary:: Active, friendly, allowed all handling ENERGY LEVEL:: In the care center, Rex has been active and enthusiastic. He may have a low threshold for arousal and needs guidance to learn how to appropriately channel that energy when he becomes overstimulated. He will need daily mental and physical stimulation and exercise, and a force-free, positive reinforcement-based training class may help him to learn impulse control and to train desirable behaviors that can be rewarded. IN SHELTER OBSERVATIONS:: 9/15/2018 Rex broke out of his collar in the lobby and ran towards another dog; his body was stiff and hackles raised. Staff was able to secure Rex on leash and move him away BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:: NEW HOPE ONLY Behavior Asilomar: TM - Treatable-Manageable Recommendations:: Place with a New Hope partner Recommendations comments:: Place with a New Hope partner: Due to the severity of Rex's reactivity towards other animals displayed in shelter, we believe he would be best set up to succeed through placement with an experienced rescue partner. While Rex has displayed some social behavior towards familiar handlers, he remains highly anxious and aloof during one-one interactions; since we have no known history, we cannot be certain of his behavior in a new home environment. Force-free, reward-based training is advised when introducing or exposing Rex to new and unfamiliar situations. Potential challenges: : Social hyperarousal,On-leash reactivity/barrier frustration Potential challenges comments:: On leash reactivity/barrier frustration: At the care center, Rex has been observed to react to other dogs on leash, lunging towards them, barking and growling. On one occasion Rex broke free from his leash and ran up to another dog, stiff with raised hackles. Rex may need positive reinforcement, reward-based training to teach him to look at you rather than other dogs and novel stimuli that may startle him. We recommend a front clip harness or head halter to help manage this behavior. Social hyper-arousal: Rex has displayed low threshold for arousal, rapidly escalating and quickly tipping over to aggression while on leash when passing other dogs. Immediate intervention and consultation with a qualified veterinary behaviorist/professional trainer is strongly recommended to aid in addressing this issue to prevent further behavioral concerns that may appear in the future if not treated right away. We recommend only force-free, reward based training when introducing or exposing Rex to new and unfamiliar situations. *** TO FOSTER OR ADOPT *** HOW TO RESERVE A “TO BE KILLED” DOG ONLINE (only for those who can get to the shelter IN PERSON to complete the adoption process, and only for the dogs on the list NOT marked New Hope Rescue Only).

Inferno (Robert Langdon, #4) By Dan Brown — Critiques, Discussion, Bookclubs, Databases
For all you power leveler's out there, I came across this online... If the starting landscape is finished you are going to follow an Imperial to some tiny ft wherever you may continue to follow the Imperial or even a Stormcloak (you can follow sometimes for this to work). Feeling it absolutely was period, definitely, to return to a state-of rejection before that maintain was taken by last imagined in her head, one final look was taken by the reviewer at the include of the best-selling book Inferno and sighed. When this occurs, I realized that The Winds of Wintertime usually takes another five years, nevertheless it never possibly happened if you ask me that the present of HBO and it might really move by. Game of Thrones didn't turn into a social phenomenon until the year that is next, and I've never considered it lived up-to the textbooks, while we appreciated the present a good deal. Likewise, a selection of ghostwriters mainly wrote the Lovely Valley publications regarding teens of Francine Pascal. The various tools you will require most to publish your NaNoWriMo novel are a large amount of willpower and motivation. If you're considering examining guides more constantly, you may find it helpful. The opening of the guide is one-of its wonderful strengths as Ellison units the booth for the entire novel.

October 2nd 1721 saw the little known Battle of Coille Bhan (Scottish Gaelic for White Wood).
This was more of a skirmish in real terms, but history recall it as a battle, to me the numbers involved make it less so. The way I look at it is that this was also an attempt by the Government of the, still quite new, Union, to impose some sort of rule to the Highland Clans, in this instance it can also go down as leading from an often overlooked Jacobite uprising in 1719, called The “Little Rising“.
The background was that government forces had failed to take the lands of Mackenzie of Seaforth. The taxes being collected by Mackenzie's factor, Donald Murchison were being sent to Mackenzie himself who was living in exile in France for his part in the '15 Jacobite uprising, after which his lands were forfeited to the crown. It was decided that a second attempt should be made to seize Mackenzie of Seaforth's estates.
This time 160 soldiers of Colonel Kirk's regiment left under the command of a Captain McNeil, who unlike their predecessors who had been ambushed in Glen Affric, McNeil took a longer but easier route from Inverness to Dingwall then onto Strath-Garve and Loch Carron.Mackenzie's force were led by Colonel Donald Murchison who had led the ambush at Glen Affric, and I bloody wish my spell check didn't keep trying to make me say Africa instead of Affric!!!
Anyway the Colonel marched his men up a mountain pass called Mam Attadale, a "gallant" relative, named Kenneth Murchison volunteered to attempt an ambush with a small party of 13 at Coille Bhan (White Wood), while the bulk of the party should remain where they were.
Captain McNeil with 18 men of his government force advanced on Kenneth Murchison's position. They received fire in which several of the government troops were wounded and one was killed. McNeil persisted in attacking his enemy and eventually he defeated them and Kenneth Murchison's men withdrew, as they were unable to resist any further, there is no mention of the Jacobite's losses.
The long and short of it is, although Captain McNeil had defeated this advance force, he soon heard of the larger group of Mackenzies waiting at Attadale under the command of Donald Murchison, unwilling to take on these men, who also held the high ground McNeil, himself wounded retreated and high-tailed it back to Inverness.
Kenneth Murchison quickly rejoined Colonel Donald on Mam Attadale, with the cheering intelligence that one salvo of thirteen guns had repelled the hundred and sixty red-coats. No further attempts were made on Mackenzie of Seaforth's lands.
This episode confirmed the view in the south that the Jacobite clans equated with banditry and disorder, but Donald Murchison was also a bold man, reading on, in the History of The Mackenzies he appeared in Edinburgh two years later with £200 in back rents, looking for someone to take it over to France, he was not so stupid as to make himself conspicuous and is said to have been wearing "the garb of a lowlander", he did however spend two weeks in the capital, and although he was a wanted man went unmolested during this time.
Mackenzie of Seaforth, also known as William dubh MacKenzie or Black MacKenzie, like may other Jacobites during earlier uprisings, was later pardoned and returned returned to Scotland in 1726, he died in 1740.
During the '45 uprising, such was the split across The Highlands one of his sons fought on the Hanoverian side in the campaign, whereas a large part of the Clan Mackenzie followed the chief's cousin George Mackenzie, 3rd Earl of Cromartie chose to fight for the Jacobite cause.
The pics showsmoorland and Lochcarron, the second is Attadale Forest Early morning cloud clearing out of the valleys. Forest can mean hunting area, hence the forest without any trees., next is the expanse of land that Clan MacKenzie enjoyed as their own, and their clan crest with the motto Luceo Non Uro (I shine, not burn). MacCoinneach the Gaelic name for the clan means son of the fair bright one.

Animals, Apparently, and Beautiful: ax ех D4 24739 SUPER friendly Boy. Soooo happy, playful and energetic. Rex adores people and getsp. super wiggly and waggy when you interact with him. He LOVES to cuddle and thanks you with lots of kisses. 4 yrs old, 65 lbs Waiting on Love @ Brooklyn ACC TO BE KILLED 6/1/19 Six times Rex has been in and out of the shelter. His owner comes back for him and then a bit later he is back! And through it all, Rex has remained a staff favorite - FRIENDLY, AFFECTIONATE and SO HAPPY! A volunteer writes: There's friendly and then there's FRIENDLY! Rex squarely belongs in the latter category. He just adores people and gets super-wiggly and waggly when you interact with him. He thanks you with lots of face kisses, which are pretty hard to resist. He's sooooo happy and playful and has lots of energy. Rex finds everything around him to be of interest - the birds flying above, the dog being walked across the street, the stray plastic bag floating in the wind - it all fascinates him! Rex occasionally gets too focused on something, but it's very easy to distract him - just click your tongue or call to him and he'll immediately look right up at you. Better yet, give him a treat and he'll completely forget what had so absorbed him just a minute ago. Rex can also get a bit overexcited when you interact with him (he's just so playful!), but here too it's very easy to refocus his energy. When I gave him a treat, he immediately settled down and we continued our walk. If you'd like to meet this super-friendly, happy, high-energy boy, come on down to the Brooklyn ACC shelter where he's awaiting his forever home. Short volunteers note June 2018 Rex has been officially coined as "Sexy Rexy." He is truly beautiful. All the staff love him. He saw one of his favorites in the hall and literally did a hop skip in the air. When I had Rex tethered outside to get pics, I was taking pics of another dog and he got so jealous. He really is a ladies man, loves to cuddle, but he's sort of wild when he does it. He was dancing for a treat today. <3 A volunteer wrrote in 2014: Rex is a big puppy who deserves well his name. Indeed, he is royal looking and eye catching. Although his coat has the most beautiful markings, his pale greenish yellowish eyes are what makes Rex so attractive. Rex is leashed easily. He salutes on the way every single dog in his ward.He does not respond to a pooch barking at him. In the street, he eliminates right away as we exit the building, pulls a little , chases the pigeons and aims toward other dogs, curious to see them. His tail his high like it is most of the time. Free in a pen, Rex is one boisterous boy. Let’s not forget that despite his big size, Rex is ONLY…8 month old…He loves to play ball, jumps in the air to catch it or runs after it. He retrieves at my feet. Rex loves treats and will sit on command for them. He does not always listen and orders have to be repeated. Sounds familiar? Like a kid… Rex can be petted all over. He can be a little mouthy at times and jumpy. He tried once to go for the leash but a treat made him change his mind. Rex is a youngster we have at the Manhattan Care Center. He is a big boy, energetic and has a personality.. Like any puppy, he will need training to be on the same page as his new owner or family. His majesty Rex is all worth the investment that will be put into him. He could become a rockstar of a dog…Come and meet Rex…son. and make him yours… REX´ VIDEOS May 2019 Party Animal https://youtu.be/ZPyal8vaVbM Big Lug https://youtu.be/H0snPP4Gamc September 2018 https://youtu.be/NJ1Z2CuidSM June 2018 https://youtu.be/G1WXubiykY4 https://youtu.be/VZ6ZvOISzcQ August 2014 https://youtu.be/3W03uOOkB5U https://youtu.be/G1WXubiykY4 June 2014 https://youtu.be/vv6EfCE0Uqs REX, ID# 24739, 5 yrs and 1 month old, 56.8 lbs, Brooklxn Animal Care Center, Large Mixed Breed Crtoss, Brown / White Neutered Male, Returned as a Stray (was Returned to Owner 09/26/18) Shelter Assessment Rating: Medical Behavior Rating: Yellow ------------------------------------------------------ NOTES 6th STAY / Intake: 09-15-18 REX ID# 24739 Brooklyn ACC aka KINGSTON aka WILLY (ALT ID – A0995114 and A1011690) - 4 yrs old, 65 lbs Brown / White Neutered Male Returned as a Stray (was Returned To Owner in June) Intake Date: 09-15-2018 UPDATED NOTES FOR REX!! 9/24/2018 During walk with a caretaker, Rex was removed from the kennel without issue and without any attempts to cage fight with neighboring dogs.

Dog jumps on Assessor, consistently rubs his shoulder on the Assessor, and will not allow Assessor to conduct the assessment. Sensitivity:: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, eyes are averted, and tail is in neutral position with a relaxed body posture. Dog's mouth is likely closed for at least a portion of the assessment item. Tag:: 3. Dog repeatedly turns quickly away when touched, or repeatedly spins toward the touch, and repeatedly tries to exit. Dog may be crouching, tail is tucked, mouth closed, body stiff. Paw squeeze 1:: 2. Dog quickly pulls back. Paw squeeze 2:: 2. Dog quickly pull back. Toy:: 2. Dog takes toy away, keeps a firm hold. His/her body is between you and the toy, and is loose and wiggly. No growling or stiffness. Summary:: Rex was highly anxious and distracted during his assessment, seeking exiting throughout. He tolerated most handling without issue though displayed a low threshold for arousal when engaging in play. Summary (1):: Rex was brought in as a stray so his behavior around other dogs is unknown. 6/17: When off leash at the Care Center, Rex greets the novel female with a high stance, chattering a little. He becomes sexually motivated, attempting to mount her a few times but responds well to being re-directed. When she solicits his attention by barking in his face, Rex offers a slightly over the top correction- hard bark and lunge towards her. The two then move away from each other. Date of intake:: 6/16/2018 Summary:: Loose, wiggly, allowed all handling Date of initial:: 6/18/2018 Summary:: Active, friendly, allowed all handling ENERGY LEVEL:: In the care center, Rex has been active and enthusiastic. He may have a low threshold for arousal and needs guidance to learn how to appropriately channel that energy when he becomes overstimulated. He will need daily mental and physical stimulation and exercise, and a force-free, positive reinforcement-based training class may help him to learn impulse control and to train desirable behaviors that can be rewarded. IN SHELTER OBSERVATIONS:: 9/15/2018 Rex broke out of his collar in the lobby and ran towards another dog; his body was stiff and hackles raised. Staff was able to secure Rex on leash and move him away BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:: NEW HOPE ONLY Behavior Asilomar: TM - Treatable-Manageable Recommendations:: Place with a New Hope partner Recommendations comments:: Place with a New Hope partner: Due to the severity of Rex's reactivity towards other animals displayed in shelter, we believe he would be best set up to succeed through placement with an experienced rescue partner. While Rex has displayed some social behavior towards familiar handlers, he remains highly anxious and aloof during one-one interactions; since we have no known history, we cannot be certain of his behavior in a new home environment. Force-free, reward-based training is advised when introducing or exposing Rex to new and unfamiliar situations. Potential challenges: : Social hyperarousal,On-leash reactivity/barrier frustration Potential challenges comments:: On leash reactivity/barrier frustration: At the care center, Rex has been observed to react to other dogs on leash, lunging towards them, barking and growling. On one occasion Rex broke free from his leash and ran up to another dog, stiff with raised hackles. Rex may need positive reinforcement, reward-based training to teach him to look at you rather than other dogs and novel stimuli that may startle him. We recommend a front clip harness or head halter to help manage this behavior. Social hyper-arousal: Rex has displayed low threshold for arousal, rapidly escalating and quickly tipping over to aggression while on leash when passing other dogs. Immediate intervention and consultation with a qualified veterinary behaviorist/professional trainer is strongly recommended to aid in addressing this issue to prevent further behavioral concerns that may appear in the future if not treated right away. We recommend only force-free, reward based training when introducing or exposing Rex to new and unfamiliar situations. *** TO FOSTER OR ADOPT *** HOW TO RESERVE A “TO BE KILLED” DOG ONLINE (only for those who can get to the shelter IN PERSON to complete the adoption process, and only for the dogs on the list NOT marked New Hope Rescue Only).
