Saturday, June 26, 2010. I love the new Blogger templates! I was never very happy with the last template I had, so I was glad to see some new ones, and had a hard time choosing one. Finally decided to stick with pink. I've been reading a lot of short stories lately- not for any particular reason, just because I keep finding good collections. Here are a few reviews and recommendations. The New York Stories. Good Evening, Mrs. Craven. A Harvest of Stories. By Dorothy Canfield Fisher. In the prologue, the a...

Hits and Misses: Plagiarism: What Is It & Why Does It Matter?
http://gerardcox.blogspot.com/2016/07/plagiarism-what-is-it-why-does-it-matter.html
Hunting, fishing, cooking, and other critical aspects of life. Wednesday, July 20, 2016. Plagiarism: What Is It and Why Does It Matter? When you use another writer's intellectual property- language, visuals, or ideas- in your own work without giving proper credit to that person, you commit plagiarism. Pretty simple, right? And I bet you didn't realize that this description of plagiarism is itself plagiarized: I took it word for word right from Diana Hacker's A Writer's Reference. I had a sense of deja vu.

Hunting, fishing, cooking, and other critical aspects of life. Monday, February 15, 2016. Reshaping the Stock on a Marlin Golden 39 A. I didn't think to take a photo of my rifle when I acquired it, but (except for the scope) it looked almost exactly like the one illustrated here in an earlier Marlin advertisement:. Sanding and whiskering were straightforward. Next came dying the stock to give it more color. I used a blend of aniline dyes (3 parts Dark Walnut, 1 part Red Mahogany, and 1/2 part Ant...I let...

http://gerardcox.blogspot.com/2016/09/fitting-new-grips-to-uberti-44-army.html
Hunting, fishing, cooking, and other critical aspects of life. Monday, September 26, 2016. Fitting New Grips to a Uberti 44 Army and Fixing Three Mistakes. After looking at a number of websites, I ordered a kit from Tombstone Gun Grips. Epoxy, which can be reversed with a heat gun. While the grips are still a bit oversized, fit the spacer. Here is where I made the first. See that empty space just above the bottom of the grip frame? If not, the grip will not keep vertically aligned. I could have avoided t...

My wife and I have just returned from a wonderful trip to Portugal, where we ate seafood almost every day. This recipe adapts the Portuguese method of cooking clams and garlic sausage together in a covered pot, a. Portuguese clams are different from ours, so I have substituted mussels. B. Utter clams would also be good. 2 pounds of mussels. 2 garlic cloves, minced.
