The Night Country

The Night Country



"Eiseley has met strange creatures in the night country, and he tells marvelous stories about them . . . For Eiseley, storytelling is never pure entertainment. The autobiographical tales keep illustrating the theses that wind through all his writing-the fallibility of science, the mystery of evolution, the surprise of life."-Time. "The autobiographical details that [Eiseley] uses in most of the essays have power over the reader's imagination precisely because they have been filtered through a heightened sensibility. Most of us see; Eiseley challenges us to be aware."-America. "A sort of Odyssey by a man in dialogue with nature and evolution; Eiseley remains one of our foremost humanists-and prose stylists."-Christian Century. "[Eiseley] is the raconteur par excellence. His tales . . . all make fascinating reading."-Library Journal. Toward the end of his life, Loren Eiseley reflected on the mystery of life, throwing light on those dark places traversed by himself and centuries of humankind. The Night Country is a gift of wisdom and beauty from the famed anthropologist. It describes his needy childhood in Nebraska, reveals his increasing sensitivity to the odd and ordinary in nature, and focuses on a career that turns him inward as he reaches outward for answers in old bones. Gale E. Christianson, author of Fox at the Wood's Edge: A Biography of Loren Eiseley, is a professor of history at Indiana State University, Terre Haute.

Not Ready For Mom

Not Ready for Mom Jeans



A laugh-out-loud novel about motherhood, life, and the quest for eight hours of sleep.Event planner and famous blogger Clare Finnegan expected to go back to work after her daughter was born. After all, she worked hard for her success...and it's not like now that she has a child she has to buy a minivan, wear Mom Jeans, and give up her career! Right?            Despite more than a few pounds of baby weight still left to lose, Clare dons her Miss Piggy Pants and returns to work. She plans a swanky Sweet Sixteen party, pulls off a million-dollar golf outing, has to come to terms with her mother's breast cancer, and is left so exhausted that she can't remember her ATM card's pin number. Then, after another meeting runs late, and she misses another one of her daughter's milestones, Clare allows herself to examine an alternate choice: staying home.  "Lipinski's snappy dialogue and acerbic wit are so engaging, you don't need a minivan to enjoy this ride." -Jen Lancaster, New York Times bestselling author

Ken Berry And Forrest Tucker


Ken Berry and Forrest Tucker in TV's Classic Sitcom F Troop (1965-67)









L-r: Ken Berry, Forrest Tucker, Larry Storch, Melody Patterson in F Troop


Richard M. Bluel Creates F Troop


Richard M. Bluel (1925-1992) created F Troop for Warner Bros. Television. Bluel got his start in Hollywood as a writer, scripting episodes for such television drama as Wire Service, Man with a Camera and Bourbon Street Beat. He went on to serve as producer for TV's The Gallant Men (1962-63), Temple Houston (1963-64), The Green Hornet (1966-67), The Second Hundred Years (1967-68) and The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo (1979-81).


Ken Berry Heads F Troop Cast


Ken Berry heads the cast as the bumbling Captain Wilton Parmenter. Known as the "Scourge of Appomattox," Parmenter's fortuitous sneeze led to a decisive Union victory over Confederate forces in the waning days of the Civil War, earning him the Medal of Honor for his accidental cavalry charge.


Other principals are Forrest Tucker as Sergeant Morgan O'Rourke, the shrewd, scheming head of O'Rourke Enterprises; Larry Storch as Corporal Randolph Agarn, O'Rourke's excitable business partner; and Melody Patterson as Jane Angelica "Wrangler Jane" Thrift, owner of the general store and Captain Parmentier's passionate girlfriend.


Other F Troop regulars include Frank DeKova as Chief Wild Eagle, James Hampton as inept bugler Hannibal Dobbs, Bob Steele as the ancient Trooper Duffy, Don Diamond as hip Indian brave Crazy Cat, Joe Brooks as the half-blind lookout Trooper Vanderbilt, Ivan Bell as Trooper Duddleson, John Mitchum as the non-English speaking Prussian Trooper Hoffenmueller, Ben Frommer as Smokey Bear and Edward Everett Horton as Hekawi medicine man Roaring Chicken.



James Hampton as F Troop's bugler Hannibal Dobbs


F Troop's First Season


F Troop made its ABC television debut on Tuesday night, September 14, 1965, in the 9-9:30 (ET) slot. Network competition was The Red Skelton Hour (CBS) and the NBC Tuesday Night Movie.


The first episode, "Scourge of the West," introduced Captain Wilton Parmenter, whose Civil War heroics lead to his assignment as commander of Fort Courage in 1866 Kansas. Parmenter has his hands full, trying to pacify the "fierce" local Hekawi tribe, rein in his enterprising first sergeant and ward off the advances of the blond, overly eager Wrangler Jane.


A total of 33 additional half-hour episodes followed. Among the offerings were:


"The Phantom Major" - A British officer instructs the troopers in the art of camouflage.
"The Girl from Philadelphia" - Wilton is visited by his old flame from back east.
"The 86 Proof Spring" - Parmenter goes undercover in order to shut down an illegal still that is supplying whiskey to the Indians.
"Johnny Eagle Eye" - A Hekawi brave is drafted into F Troop in order to win them the ,000 prize in a sharpshooting contest.

F Troop's Second and Final Season


F Troop kicked off its second season on Thursday night, September 8, 1966, in the 8-8:30 (ET) slot. The network competition was Jericho (CBS) and Daniel Boone (NBC).


A total of 31 second season episodes were telecast, beginning with "The Singing Mountie" in which Larry Storch appeared in a dual role, playing both Corporal Agarn and his fugitive French-Canadian cousin Lucky Pierre Agarniere.


Other memorable second season segments include the following:


"Yellow Bird" - A woman raised by Indians takes a shine to Captain Parmenter.
"Miss Parmenter" - Wilton's husband-hunting sister trains her sights on Trooper Dobbs.
"What Are You Doing After the Massacre?" - The 147-year-old Chief Flaming Arrow tries to reclaim the Hekawis' land.
"Our Brave in F Troop" - Wild Eagle masquerades as a trooper in order to visit the camp dentist for his throbbing toothache.

F Troop Guest Stars and TV Guide Review


A number of prominent performers graced F Troop's dusty trail. Among the notables: Don Rickles, Milton Berle, Vincent Price, Don "Red" Barry, Paul Petersen, Henry Gibson, Harvey Korman, Mary Wickes, Lee Meriwether, Paul Lynde, Mae Clarke, Pat Harrington Jr., Zsa Zsa Gabor, Phil Harris and Julie Newmar.


"If you don't mind your humor stretched far, wide and then some, you could do far worse this season than make a late TV-dinner date with F Troop ? which is not only the spoof to end all spoofs on Indian warfare but also tells you, in no uncertain terms, how the West was lost," reported Cleveland Amory of TV Guide (11/20/65).



F Troop cast graces the cover of TV Guide, December 11, 1965


F Troop's Best Episode, Trivia, DVD


Best Episode: "V Is for Vampire" (2/2/67) - Horror film legend Vincent Price guest stars as the mysterious Count Sforza, a native of Transylvania who comes to Fort Courage and takes up residence in a spooky mansion.
Melody Patterson (born 4/16/49) was only 16-years-old when F Troop debuted in 1965.
Deceased F Troop regulars: Forrest Tucker (1919-1986), Frank DeKova (1910-1981), Bob Steele (1907-1988), Joe Brooks (1923-2007), Ivan Bell (1914-1977), John Mitchum (1919-2001), Ben Frommer (1913-1992), Edward Everett Horton (1886-1970).
After 65 episodes F Troop officially exited the airwaves on August 31, 1967. The following week The Flying Nun (1967-70) starring Sally Field debuted in its time slot.
On DVD: F Troop - The Complete Seasons 1 and 2 (Warner, 2008).

Now, who remembers the words to F Troop's daffy theme song by Irving Taylor and William Lava? Here's a start: "The end of the Civil War was near/When quite accidentally/A hero who sneezed abruptly seized/Retreat and reversed it to victory..."

How To Make Grape Wine


How To Make Grape Wine - Three Period Fermentation Process


To make your own wine at home, you are going to need an instruction guide, wine making equipment, ingredients and recipes but let's begin by learning the basic process of wine making.

Extract juice from grapes by pressing, soaking or crushing them Add sugar, spices and yeast Transfer to a bottle, jar, bucket or pail and cover Store at room temperature for at least one week to allow for the of fermentation Strain the liquid from the pulp and pour the liquid back into the vessel, discarding the pulp Cover and allow a of fermentation for several weeks but not longer than 8 weeks Repeat the straining process and ferment for a 3-8 weeks, or until the wine has a clear appearance Bottle your homemade wine If the wine isn't to your liking, allow it to age for several months and taste it again



Now that you understand the basic process, you are going to need more details, including recipes, to get started.

We recommend purchasing a basic winemaking guide to help you through the first few batches. A good choice is the (learn more at the link provided in Author's Box below).

It offers all the detail you will need plus comes with a separate book of recipes.

In addition to the wine making guide and recipes, you are also going to need wine making equipment. You can easily find kits which include all the needed equipment, like the carboy (large fermentation bottle), bottle filler and corks.

All of these parts can be purchased separately, but if you are just starting out, buying an equipment wine kit is a smart investment and we believe, the most cost effective option.

After you purchase the guide and the basic equipment, you can either choose to use your own ingredients (grapes, sugar, spices, yeast...) or you can buy kits to make specific types of wine, like Chardonnay or Shiraz.

If you are new to wine making, you may find that using an ingredients kit is a good way to start out. We offer a few choices at the link in the Author's box below.

Once you feel comfortable making grape wine using either your own ingredients or an ingredients kit, you can begin to experiment with different flavored wines, like cherry or apple wine.

Learning how to make wine is not only fun but can be very cost effective. One batch usually makes 6 or 7 bottles, and depending on the ingredients, costs about 49 cents per bottle to make. When you consider that the average cost of a bottle of wine runs between and , the savings can really add up.



Sandee Lembke from Theme Party Queen.com invites you to visit her site for more information about Home Wine Making and to learn how to Make Your Own Wine Labels using Microsoft Powerpoint.

The Erotic Films History Of


The Erotic Films History of Turkey -- the First All Turkish Pornographic Film


Movie-making Turks haven't been shy about including earthy subjects or fleshy cinematic scenes in their films since as far back as the 1950's. That's when street-walking prostitutes, drug-dependent harem girls, topless damsels in distress, soapy half-naked bathers, sexually provocative belly dancers, and uninvited-lovemaking first began appearing in conventional Turkish moving-pictures.

The 'intensity' of erotic action in conventional Turkish films escalated in the 1960's when 'lite' erotic opposite-sex scenes began to heat up. And in Atif Yilmaz's otherwise conventional Iki Gemi Yanyana (Two Ships Side by Side), the first lesbian Turkish movie scene -- a scorcher for its day, in which Suzan Avci and Sevda Nur french-kissed on camera -- gave Turkish movie goers a shock when it was first shown in 1963.

Female cinematic sex-symbols during the 'Age of the Turkish Vamp' (1950s - 1960s) included Neriman K�ksal (who made 177 films between 1950 to 1995), Funda Yanar [pictured on our website as a topless dancer in B�y�k Sehrin Kanunu (Big City Law, 1965] and Leyla Sayar -- who, in 1960, performed a memorably bold (we are told) strip-tease act in Atif Yilmaz's �l�m Perdesi (Death Curtain)...

But Leyla Hanim drew the line in 1972, when she realized the direction in which the seks filmleri furyasi (erotic films boom) would lead her. And after a short stint as a night club dancer, she quit the entertainment business altogether... opting instead for a simple, pious life.



In 1972, action-man Beh�et Nacar's Parcali Beh�et (a movie made in a desperate attempt by film-makers to woo audiences away from their newly acquired home TVs and back to near-empty movie theaters seats) became the first Turkish film to be produced exclusively for purposes of eroticism.

And when Parcali Beh�et attracted an overflow opening-day crowd of 7,000 to its initial showing in Konya (Mevlana's 'hometown', in the heart of Turkish religious conservatism) Turkish film-makers took notice (and heart). Subsequently, when the film enjoyed a 6-month run, in two side-by-side theaters smack in middle of that fair city, well, film-makers believed they'd found the holy grail. And from that time through to 1979, the production of erotik Turkish films mushroomed.

The three most popular genres for legally produced Turkish erotik films between 1972 and 1978 were Comedy, Adventure, and Murder Mystery. And they all had a not-very-well-kept secret about them in common. The secret was that Turkish actors and actresses didn't perform the sex-act for real. They only simulated it... Men wore underwear (briefs) and camera angles were chosen to cover up the fact -- sometimes without much success. There are lots of flashes of men's white briefs in the Turkish erotik films made between 1972 and 1978!

Any for-real sex that appeared in these films was performed by foreigners in parcalar (movie film clips) that were inserted at predictable intervals of the Turkish film. Sometimes these parcalar were made specifically for the Turkish film in which they appeared, but in most cases they were just crude cuts of foreign films -- often entirely inappropriate (in focus or coloring) to the Turkish film.

That sort of erotik film-making subterfuge came to a screeching halt in 1979, when the first all-Turkish cast was filmed in the first-ever legally produced and distributed gloves-off pornographic Turkish film, �yle Bir Kadin Ki (A Woman Like That) -- directed by Naki Yurter, starring Zerrin Dogan and Levent G�nsel in the leading female and male roles.

�yle Bir Kadin Ki set the Turkish cinematic industry on fire -- having even greater influence on immediate Turkish movie-making directions than Deep Throat had on American movie-making in 1972. 'Kadin' knocked the financial stuffing out of its soft-core erotik (and conventional) rivals, and it had a profound effect (for a while) on the production of almost every Turkish film (erotic or conventional) that followed -- opening a new chapter in the 'History of the Turkish Cinema'...
