Summary

Con artists who push scams have a crucial factor working for them besides the sorry state of our economic system, and that's the lack of a uniform, comprehensive, national clamp down by law enforcement officials.
It's exceedingly hard to track, shut down, and bring these rogue companies to justice, as many will confirm today. And because most consumers wind up getting taken for a relatively little sum of money, attorneys are seldom willing or able to get involved, nor do local law enforcement representatives.
According to the Better Business Council, only twenty-three % of the bureaus responding to a survey reported any law enforcement actions taken against scams in their area, in spite of the fact that ninety-three

	of the bureaus around the country have got complaints about scams.

Here we will show you what these are and how to avoid them.

    This re-issue of BB's classic memoir will be enjoyed by all who appreciate fine country writing, and who believe passionately in the resilience of Mother Nature, despite the follies of mankind.
Denys Watkins-Pitchford (better known as BB) wrote these wonderful essays on the English countryside in the 1930s - a time of peace and renewal between two world wars. The book was finally published in 1941 when, as BB puts it, England was 'in the darkest hour of our history.'
BB captures here in words and sensitive wood engravings the wonders of English wildlife and countryside.
Includes essays on:

- ravens and rookeries
- the stone curlew
- the purple emperor butterfly
- a woodcutter's house
- an encounter with a wildfowler one frosty dawn
- a night fishing on the Solway
- the strange behaviour of song thrushes
- the rescue of a black labrador
- a favourite copse
- the accidental death of a groom
- village characters
- hedgerows - and many more topics

    Jellies and Their Moulds

    Peter Brears has a long acquaintance with jellies in every guise. He was fed them in childhood, he turned to curating their moulds and associated artefacts while director of York and Leeds museums, he has made them for innumerable historical food shows and events.And jelly is a much bigger thing than some packet from the supermarket mixed with boiling water. In the first place, it was not factory-made gelatine that did the setting, but any number of ingenious adaptations of kitchen materials and ingredients. In the second, it was not just a simple clear, coloured solid, but an optical prism to show off and transform the foods contained within it. It was the cook's greatest resource for introducing colour, variety and delight into the table display.The book sketches in the history of jellies, particularly in England, and discusses their place within a meal; gives several recipes based on the various setting agents (carrageen, gelatine, isinglass) and also for cereal moulds (flummery, tapioca, semolina, rice, cornflour, etc.); describes how jellies may be assembled by layering, embedding, lining and inclusion of fruit, nuts, gold, etc.; and gives an excellent illustrated account of the various forms of jelly moulds.

    The History of London

    Walter Besant

    Walter Besant was a novelist and historian, and his topographical and historical writings, ranging from prehistoric times to the nineteenth century, were probably best known through the detailed 10-volume Survey of London published after his death.This earlier single volume covers, in less depth, the whole period from prehistory until the 19th century. The book appears originally to have been written for boys, and, indeed, the chapters are called "Lessons". However, it is a very readable history and provides a fascinating insight into both London's past and the government of the City at the time the book was written (1894). (Summary by Ruth Golding)
