...their cycle of life, eating and being eaten. God has blessed the grey squirrel with many traits that help it to survive in it’s environment. After the grey squirrel matures, it must find a way to eat. Squirrels scavenge for nuts, bugs and other sources of nutrients for sustenance. It will climb trees or find food on the forest floor. After it gathers its food, it is stored in the squirrels stretchy cheeks. The squirrel will hurry to a habitable spot, and dig a hole called a “cache”. They then bury the nuts and come back later to harvest them. The squirrel can make about 50 caches in an hour. Eventually the new squirrel will need a new home to raise its own family. The mates gather sticks and brush and make an oval home known as a “drey”. These dreys are usually one and a half feet tall. These conventional methods of surviving are incredible in and of themselves but God has gifted the squirrel with a few tricks up its sleeve. If a squirrel feels it is being watched while it is digging a cache it will pretend to deposit the food into the hole, bury it and continue on its way throughout the woods. A scientist at the Berkeley Lab said this: “Often humans view animals as not being as adept at handling challenges they face and don’t have an appreciation for their incredible complexity,” he said. “The work at Berkeley enables us to look at the psychology, sensory abilities and learning of squirrels to find resources and deal with a complex, 3-D environment.”(LA Times) This is one of...

...Cultural Event Critique of Musikfest 2010 Alfred J. Haines Humanities 100, Section 010016 Dr. Cynthia Bryson Due September 5, 2010 2 Musikfest 2010 Where: Bethlehem, Pa. When: August 6-15 What: A multicultural musical event covering ten days in historic Bethlehem town center. Once a year the sleepy town of historic Bethlehem is roused to near bliss when the streets come to life with sound. The police barricades and hand painted 'Park Here” signs are the first indication that something is about to awaken in this remote college town. The backdrop for this event is the Moravian College which was founded in 1742 by followers of John Amos Comenius, the 17th century Moravian bishop. Many of the original buildings line the streets along the route of tents and displays, each displaying plagues with descriptions of events that make that place unique. I was able to enjoy three of the ten days mostly with my wife, Diane, one night my teenage daughter even joined us. The distance and my work schedule prevented me from spending even more time at this wonderful event. I have taken notes about the bands and activities that I attended, and some I had only seen in passing. There were more bands and booths than anyone could visit in the little time that was available. My first stop was on at six fifteen when I heard the sound of Jolly Joe Timmer's Polka band. Good old time Polish Polka with dancing in the main tent, my mom would have loved this! The band wore Polish...

...National Humanities Center Resource Toolbox Becoming American: The British Atlantic Colonies, 1690-1763 “You know, we are different Nations and have different Ways.” European Americans and Native Americans View Each Other, 1700-1775 In British America, there was no greater sense of Otherness than between Europeans and Native Americans. Both Indians and Africans represented the "other" to white colonists, but the Indians held one card denied to the enslaved Africans— autonomy. As sovereign entities, the Indian nations and the European colonies (and countries) often dealt as peers. In trade, war, land deals, and treaty negotiations, Indians held power and used it. As late as 1755, an English trader asserted that "the prosperity of our Colonies on the Continent will stand 1 or fall with our Interest and favour among them." Here we canvas the many descriptions of Indians by white colonists and Europeans, and sample the sparse but telling record of the Native American perspective on Europeans and their culture in pre-revolutionary eighteenth-century British America. All come to us, of course, through the white man's eye, ear, and pen. Were it not for white missionaries, explorers, and frontier negotiators (the go-betweens known as "wood's men"), we would have a much sparser record of the Indian response to colonists and their "civilizing" campaigns. . * Royal Library of Denmark “The natives, the so-called savages” Francis Daniel Pastorius, Pennsylvania, 1700 Pastorius...
