It was dry read, IIRC, and Ambrose is enthusiastic about the whole enterprise regardless of all the corruption that he describes.<br /><br />I suggest the whole chapter be read for proper context<br /><br />https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/books/first/a/ambrose-nothing.html<br /><br />Nothing Like It in the World<br />The Men Who Built the Transcontinental Railroad, 1863-1869<br />By STEPHEN E. AMBROSE<br />Picking the Route 1830-1860<br /><br />(snip)<br /><br />That is why Lincoln's question to Dodge was inevitably an integral part of the question of slavery's future in the American Republic, an economic question that was also the burning political and overwhelmingly moral question of the day. Lincoln, meanwhile, was about to accept seventeen lots in Council Bluffs as collateral for a loan he was considering making to fellow attorney Norman Judd. So he was in Iowa, among other reasons, to see for himself if the lots were worthwhile as collateral. The answer to that question was the railroad potential of the Great Plains.<br /><br />(snip)<br />JaimeInTexashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08729407700850451849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-50711869331748761092021-10-13T06:55:23.534-05:002021-10-13T06:55:23.534-05:00I ordered a tube of Bimectin off Amazon a few days...I ordered a tube of Bimectin off Amazon a few days ago.

Lincoln gave us the Federal leviathan, while setting the country back for decades, or longer. Washington used the .gov to ruin the farmers, as virtually the first action of his rule.<br /><br />The higher a politician gets, the harder one must look to see any good in them.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722792638246578812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-57365852157336380612021-10-12T15:00:24.308-05:002021-10-12T15:00:24.308-05:00Five weeks ago I was staring up at Lincoln's m...Five weeks ago I was staring up at Lincoln's massive granite head, beside those of Jefferson, Washington, and Teddy Roosevelt, and appreciating the beauty, and contemplating.

The prices get better, but check the reviews about shipping.<br />ALSO CHECK that you are buying the ivermectin only, and not one of the combined medicines which has other drugs in it. Dosages are usually indicated in units per 100 lbs, so work it out from there.<br />Some sites also recommend the addition of vitamin D, Zinc, vitamin C, and Azithromycin or doxycicline. These you may be able to talk with your doctor about, or research online. Stories about Uttar Pradesh, India should have information as to what has worked there. <br />John in Indy John in Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05726277544639088808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-11535574779708565192021-10-12T14:26:18.621-05:002021-10-12T14:26:18.621-05:00I am no Luteran and know little of the peculiariti...I am no Luteran and know little of the peculiarities of the doctrine which makes them different from other sects, but Martin Luther's words are hard to improve upon: "Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God.
