Fun ! Passion ! Singerie ! Nous sommes en juin 2024 et vous êtes bien sur le flux rss de Cornelius & Zira, le fanzine audio dédié en grande partie à l'univers de la Planète des Singes. Aujourd'hui, on teste un nouveau format puisque vous vous apprêtez à écouter l'épisode 0 de Ape City News. Ape City News - Ep#0 - Un Jeu de Rôle Planet of the Apes pour cet automne ! Ça fait un petit moment que j'ai envie de faire un format plus court pour relayer des informations concernant l'actualité de la saga Planet of the Apes ou pour mettre en avant du contenu intéressant que j'ai pu voir ou écouter à propos de notre franchise préférée, en tout cas la mienne. Donc aujourd'hui, on va parler d'une campagne de financement participatif lancée par Magnetic Press concernant un jeu de rôle Planète des Singes. Alors, pour être tout à fait transparent, on ne peut pas vraiment dire que je sois rôliste, donc je vais vous présenter le projet, mais je ne vais pas vraiment pouvoir me prononcer sur ce qui concerne les mécaniques de jeux. Par contre, le contenu en lui-même et les personnes qui ont travaillé dessus, ça, je peux en parler beaucoup mieux. Et pour continuer dans la transparence, je n'ai aucun lien avec Magnetic Press, l'éditeur du jeu, mais par contre, j'ai déjà participé à la campagne Kickstarter, qui s'achèvera le 13 juillet 2024. On peut d'ors et déjà annoncer que la campagne est un succès puisque les 14 K EUR nécessaires à la sortie du jeu ont été récoltés en un quart d'heure. Au moment où j'enregistre cet épisode, 1100 personnes ont soutenu le projet ce qui va permettre de récolter 175 K EUR. Donc si le projet vous intéresse et si vous pouvez vous le permettre financièrement, a priori, on est au moins sûr des voir le projet aller à son terme. D'autant plus que, c'est probablement important de le préciser, il s'agit d'un jeu officiel. J'entends par là que Magnetic Press a obtenu la licence Planet of the Apes auprès de Disney. Le projet a été approuvé en amont. Donc en participant dès maintenant, on est assuré de pouvoir tenir le jeu entre nos mains cet automne. Sur le site de Kickstarter, il est question de septembre ou octobre, en tout cas. J'ai conscience que cet épisode commence à ressembler à une réunion Tupperware, mais, comme je vous l'ai dit, au final, je n'ai rien à y gagner à vous faire de la retape pour ce JDR. Alors pourquoi est-ce que je suis si excité par la sortie future de ce jeu alors que je ne suis pas même rôliste ? Déjà parce que ça confirme ce que je disais suite au rachat de la Fox par Disney : peu importe si les futurs films seront bons ou mauvais, au moins, cela veut dire que la franchise va continuer d'exister et donc que l'univers étendu de Planet of the Apes va également continuer d'exister. Et surtout, ce qui provoque mon enthousiasme, ce sont les noms qui figurent sur ce projet ! En premier lieu, on va parler celui qui semble chapeauter le projet en temps que directeur de la création et de la narration, à savoir ANDREW GASKA dont j'ai déjà parlé à plusieurs reprises dans Cornelius & Zira, notamment parce qu'il a écrit les romans Conspiracy of the Planet of the Apes et Death of the Planet of the Apes. Je vous renvoie à l'épisode 19 de Cornelius & Zira qui était consacré à ce roman. Je vous réexplique le concept : Conspiracy of the Planet of the Apes se déroule pendant Planet of the Apes, le film de 1968, mais au lieu de suivre Taylor, on va suivre Landon. Dans Death of the Planet of the Apes, l'histoire se déroule en même temps que celle de Beneath the Planet of the Apes, mais cette fois-ci, au lieu de suivre Brent, on va suire Taylor. C'est à dire que dans les romans de Gaska, les personnages secondaires deviennent des personnages principaux et ce qui se passe à l'arrière-plan ou hors-champ passe soudain au premier plan. Le plus impressionnant étant que Gaska arrive à intégrer à ses histoires des éléments de l'univers étendu de la saga et qu'il parvient dans son récit à résoudre les problèmes de cohérence et de continuité entre la plupart des œuvres. C'est du très grand art ! Mais Drew Gaska n'est pas seulement l'un des plus éminents spécialistes de la franchise Planet of the Apes, il a également travaillé sur les jeux de rôles Alien et Terminator, donc, a priori, il sait parfaitement comment concevoir des jeux de rôles de franchise. Donc lorsque j'ai vu popper l'info qu'il travaillait sur un RPG Planet of the Apes, j'étais déjà convaincu, je le reconnais fort volontiers. Mais le nom de Drew Gaska n'est pas le seul qui m'est familier dans cette histoire ! RICH HANDLEY a également participé. Rich Handley est un spécialiste des mondes de l'imaginaire, notamment de Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek et évidemment La Planète des Singes, ce qui avait donné lieu à une interview au sujet de ces trois saga, en compagnie de Draven de GalactiFrak et de Rémi de Star Trek pour les Nuls que vous pouvez retrouver évidemment sur le flux rss de Cornelius & Zira. Rich Handley est également un nom très souvent cité dans ce podcast puisqu'il est l'auteur de Timeline et Lexicon of the Planet of the Apes, deux livres précieux pour quiconque travaille sur Planet of the Apes. Il a aussi codirigé Bright Eyes, Ape City, un livre qui revient sur les différentes œuvres de la saga et Sacred Scrolls: Comics on the Planet of the Apes, qui revient plus en détail sur les comics de la saga. Dayton Ward, qui fait aussi partie de ce projet de jeu de rôle a écrit des articles pour ces deux livres Rich Handley a également co-édité Tales from the Forbidden Zone, une anthologie de nouvelles se passant dans l'univers POTA en compagnie de JIM BEARD, que l'on retrouve également dans cette aventure. Et, oui, on a aussi déjà parlé de Tales from the Forbidden Zone dans l'épisode 22 de Cornelius & Zira Parmis les auteurs, on retrouve aussi GREG COX, à qui l'on doit la novélisation de War for the Planet of the Apes et DAVID F. WALKER qui a déjà travaillé sur plusieurs comics POTA et, encore oui, on en parlait déjà des deux dans de précédents épisodes de Cornelius & Zira - vous retrouverez tous les liens dans le notes de l'épisode (et logiquement, vous êtes en train de les lire, c'est méta !) Je vais en rester pour la liste des auteurs, même s'il y' en a d'autres encore. On va juste dire, comme ça, en passant, que les illustrations des couvertures des livres ont été confiées à BILL SIENKIEWICZ, ce qui parlera sûrement aux fans de comics qui écoutent cet épisode (ou qui lisent ces notes). Alors, justement, vu qu'on parle de livres, en quoi consiste ce jeu ? Je vais résumer ici ce qui est indiqué sur la page de la campagne sur le site de Kickstarter. Le jeu va permettre d'incarner un chimpanzé, un gorille ou un orang-outan, en prenant en considération les différences entre les espèces dans la saga classique. Donc si vous jouez un chimpanzé, a priori, vous êtes un scientifique, si vous incarnez un gorille, vous êtes un militaire, si vous choisissez d'être un orang-outan, vous avez grave la classe. Vous avez compris l'idée. Vous pouvez également être un astronaute perdu dans le temps ou bien un humain muet, voire même un mutant télépathe ! Certains détails donnés laissent comprendre que des éléments issus de la série animée ont été intégrés aux histoires, ce qui n'a rien d'étonnant quand on connaît bien le travail de Drew Gaska. Deux livres ont été rédigés : le livre de base et The ANSA Files. Le livre de base fait plus de 300 pages et contient différentes histoires ainsi que 24 archétypes de personnages (et aussi des illustrations qui ont l'air magnifiques). Parmi les personnages, on en découvrira des nouveaux, créés pour le jeu, mais aussi des personnages iconiques de la saga. Le deuxième livre, The ANSA Files fait également plus de 300 pages et contient des informations sur les 5 films de la saga classique, les comics et les novélisations. En plus, on peut également faire l'acquisition de cartes, de dés, de figurines en résine, bref, de quoi ravir les fans de Planet of the Apes qui peuvent se permettre de dépenser sans compter. Je ne vais pas aller plus loin dans les détails parce que je dois reconnaître que je ne suis ni familier des jeux de rôles, ni de ce type de campagne de financement participatif, donc je n'ai pas vraiment de références en la matière. Je sais qu'il y a des rôlistes dans l'auditoire de C&Z, donc je serai très curieux d'avoir vos retours, aussi bien via les réseaux sociaux que via les commentaires YT. Je dois aussi dire que je n'ai pas prêté autant de temps que je l'aurai voulu pour vous parler de ce jeux, pour des raisons personnelles mais aussi parce que le climat politique français actuel me préoccupe beaucoup et que je passe ces derniers jours plus de temps à écouter ou lire du contenu politique. Je ne voudrais d'ailleurs pas terminer cet épisode sans dire quelques mots à ce sujet. Ça ne me paraît pas incohérent avec La Planète des Singes parce que cette saga véhicule évidemment un message politique, en questionnant les rapports de domination, notamment et en critiquant le racisme, la peur de l'autre, le fanatisme, la paresse intellectuelle et l'obscurantisme. Si vous écoutez Cornelius & Zira, c'est que vous êtes francophones ou que vous avez une bonne maîtrise du français mais, après tout, vous n'habitez peut-être pas en France. Alors on va faire très court : des élections anticipées vont bientôt avoir lieu ici et le risque d'avoir un gouvernement d'extrême-droite en France est très grand. Je pense que je vais prêcher des convertis en disant qu'il faut voter pour faire en sorte que l'extrême-droite et ceux qui leur servent de marchepied ne passent pas. Ca me semble difficilement concevable qu'on puisse aimer La Planète des Singes et voter pour l'extrême-droite mais vu leurs récents scores, d'un point de vue purement statistique, ce n'est pas impossible. Si jamais c'est votre cas, je vous assure, vous êtes passé complètement à côté du message principal des œuvres de la saga Planet of the Apes. Mais il n'est jamais trop tard pour bien faire. Relisez le roman de Pierre Boulle, revoyez les films et votez pour le Nouveau Front Populaire ! Apes together strong ! Comme vous pouvez vous en douter, j'aurais vraiment beaucoup plus à dire sur le sujet, donc, sait-on jamais, peut-être dégainerai-je une série d'épisodes “Singes & Politique” si jamais ça intéresse des gens parmi vous :) C'est sur ces belles paroles que je vais vous laisser. Si vous avez écouté cet épisode en peignant des figurines, en faisant un jet de D10 ou en votant pour le Nouveau Front Populaire, vous étiez forcément dans le vrai ! D'ici au prochain épisode, portez vous bien, prenez soin de celles et ceux que vous aimez en votant du bon côté et à tobien les primates !!!

Welcome back to our fifth episode of a five-part miniseries exploring how a focus on local food builds relationships with people and the environment.  If you haven't followed this miniseries, you may want to go back and listen from episode 26, Localizing the Regional Food System. In this episode of Root Words, we'll explore how Vermont Farmers Food Center's reopening will help usher in, not only regenerative agriculture, but a regenerative way of life for the region.  And we'll wrap up the series by hearing how a vibrant and well supported community food web creates a more circular, localized economy where we all thrive together.  Let's start by checking back in with the Vermont Farmers Food Center.   In 2019 VFFC completed a USDA Funded feasibility study and business plan for the campus with the purpose of developing the additional buildings into infrastructure that supports small food business access and creates local jobs.  In 2021, VFFC received federal grants to renovate its buildings so it can fully implement its business plan. However, one of the initial requirements in this process was an environmental review, which revealed harmful contamination from the site's industrial past that would need to be addressed before any renovation could begin. Unfortunately, in January 2022, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, VFFC had to close Farmers Hall, the central gathering space for the local food community.  While these dual challenges were a temporary setback, it has not deterred VFFC.   After two years, the doors will be reopening.  VFFC board member Phillip Ackerman-Leist says that two years of pandemic challenges, remediation, and expansion efforts have provided a wealth of lessons learned, and he is excited to see the organization continue to grow.  Relocalizing our economies creates a future of thriving communities.  A future full of potential and opportunity.  A future of community and civic engagement, and environmental and physical well-being.   It has taken generations for us to arrive at the unaccountable global system that we have.  It is not an easy road back and we'll all have to actively center local food and businesses to push back against the entrenched centralized power of global corporations.   It seems like a lot, and it is.  The good news is that there's a lot of ways to work for change, and everyone is needed and can find purpose in this work.   Do what you can to support your local farmers and organizations like Vermont Farmers Food Center.  If you're in Vermont consider joining your local hunger council.  We've compiled localization resources from this mini series on VFFC's website at vermontfarmersfoodcenter.org/local   This miniseries was produced by Stephen Abatiell and Julia Anderson. Special thanks to Philip Ackerman-Leist, Heidi Lynch, Greg Cox, Steve Gorelick, Shane Rogers, and Lyle Jepsen, as well as all of the folks who spoke with us throughout this series.

Welcome back to our fourth episode of a five-part miniseries exploring how a focus on local food builds relationships with people and the environment.  If you haven't followed this miniseries, you may want to go back and listen from episode 26, Localizing the Regional Food System. In our last episode we explored some relationships that people have with their foodways and some of the impacts that are felt when these relationships are damaged.  And we heard how some folks are restoring their communities' relationships with the land and with each other. If the community food web relationships are strong and vibrant, it may become possible to create a physical space that can be an active center to the web, providing enough general use attributes for the entire web to thrive.    In this episode, we'll explore Vermont Farmers Food Center's plans to rejuvenate the historic buildings at 251 West Street in downtown Rutland, Vermont and build an urban food center on the site of the former Lincoln Iron Works. Buildings aren't usually what comes to mind when we envision a vibrant local food system.  We may picture a densely cultivated field or perhaps a farmer chatting up customers at market, but like many background players, buildings- physical spaces to work, gather, warehouse, and create- play a vital role in our food system.    In a globalized food system, buildings like this are often faraway and out-of-sight, increasing energy demands for transportation while decreasing accountability to the community of consumers. Likewise, our own towns and cities often have “out-of-sight” spaces that fall into decay after their initial era of usefulness has waned, sometimes even becoming dangerous liabilities for the community if left inactive for too long.  251 West Street in Rutland, Vermont is just this sort of site.  The 2.9 acre industrial site hosted many forms of manufacturing over the past 170 years.  Notably, the Lincoln Iron Works centered a thriving community that anchored families and adjacent businesses to Rutland, but like many manufacturing centers in the U.S. the gears eventually ground to a halt when the globalizing economy shifted this work elsewhere.   Local historian, Jack Crowther, has researched this site's rise to prominence and subsequent fall into disuse.  Adaptation and reuse of aging infrastructure provides a path forward that revitalizes neglected, once-thriving areas, and protects open spaces from unnecessary sprawl.   Lyssa Papazian has been working for 30 years in historic preservation and is now based in Putney, Vermont. Vermont Farmers Food Center brought her in to assess the eligibility of the buildings at the 251 West St. site for listing on the national historic register. Lyssa says that historic preservation and adaptive reuse are starkly different.  Preservation is important in some instances, but its use is narrowly appropriate. Today in Rutland, a local food movement is reigniting the community and the people that fill the historic architecture with purpose will adapt it to further use, ultimately keeping the spaces relevant.   My grandfather Peter worked in the Lincoln Ironworks during its last great phase of output for the war effort.  My great grandfather Pasquale worked in the Lincoln ironworks even before that in the 20's.  During Pasquale's days at the Iron Works, the factory workers unionized and joined the American Steel Workers to push back against the power dynamics of that day's economy.   Farmer and Vermont Food Center founder, Greg Cox, has shown similar determination that those fellas would have respected by having the audacity to revive an aging factory through a driven community effort, ultimately pushing back against the centralized power of today's global food system. In 2012, when area farmers and food producers needed more space, Greg saw the potential of 251 West Street.   Farmer, author, and VFFC board member, Philip Ackerman-Leist, has learned that providing opportunity in the middle of the food system is a critical component to overall food system resiliency, and that a large former factory might be an ideal location for a community food web hub. In many ways 251 West Street is the ideal location.  Unfortunately, sometimes our past catches up to us, and we are faced with confronting it.  Before Vermont's farmers ever created organic food guidelines that pushed back against conventional chemical agriculture, that industrial chemical legacy was already entombed at 251 West Street from a long history of manufacturing and subsequent neglect. In 2021, as VFFC was furthering the reuse efforts of the site, an environmental assessment of the property revealed trichloroethylene or TCE contamination. TCE is a known carcinogen, and was likely left behind from industrial degreasers used in the mid 20th century.   After the contamination was discovered VFFC shut down the old Iron Works building, now called Farmers Hall, on the 251 West Street site.  This forced the winter farmers' market to relocate in the middle of the season and caused disruptions to the pandemic-era prepared meals program.   The plan to adapt this piece of the city's industrial past to create new local food opportunities, seemed to be in jeopardy.   The board and staff of Vermont Farmers Food Center had their work cut out for them.   The folks at VFFC are addressing more challenges left over from an outdated globalized economy than they initially set out to, utilizing state money and grant money to do so.  Lyle Jepsen, Executive Director at the Chamber and Economic Development for the Rutland Region is optimistic about the effect a food hub will bring to county wide redevelopment efforts. This time around the site's closure didn't stop all momentum and lead to further decay, this time there was a network built around the continual use of this space. Today's community food web was strong enough to overcome the weight of the site's history.   On the next Root Words we'll hear how Vermont Farmers Food Center's remediation and adaptive renovation efforts are set to support the community food web and create a more circular, localized economy where we all thrive together.   This episode was produced by Stephen Abatiell and Julia Anderson. Special thanks to Jack Crowther, Lyssa Papazian, Philip Ackerman-Leist, Greg Cox, Lyle Jepsen, and all of the people who have brought life to 251 West Street over the years.  If you would like to learn more about the history of the Lincoln Iron Works in Rutland you can find a link to Jack Crowther's Rutland Historical Society report on Vermont Farmers Food Center's website, under the “About” tab.  You can also see VFFC's building renovation plans, visit their website at www.vermontfarmersfoodcenter.org  Root Words is produced in the heart of Rutland County Vermont and is made possible by generous support from listeners like you.  You can support Root Words by visiting us Online

Welcome back to our third episode of a five-part miniseries exploring how a focus on local food builds relationships with people and the environment.  If you haven't followed this miniseries, you may want to go back and listen from episode 26, Localizing the Regional Food System.   In our last episode we explored the community food web, a local alternative to the globalized food system that centers our relationships with our communities and with the land.    In this episode, we look at some relationships that people have with their foodways and some of the impacts that are felt when these relationships are damaged.  Then we'll hear how some folks are restoring their communities' relationships with the land and with each other. At the end, we'll hear what Vermont Farmers Food Center is doing to help build back those community relationships in Rutland.   Steve Gorelick, Managing and Programs Director for Local Futures, believes that the globalized accumulation economy has isolated us from true community.  Steve says that before globalization, our agriculturally based communities were inherently more interconnected, and that this isolation has many serious effects.   Farmer and Vermont Farmers Food Center founder, Greg Cox, believes that global agribusiness' goal is yield, and that individual and community health has suffered in the wake of this approach.     Shane Rogers of Food Solutions New England, believes that social inequities have been exacerbated by an unaccountable global food system, and that communities are their own best experts for rebalancing the power dynamic that a globalized system creates.   Many communities that have been marginalized by the global yield-based economy are rebuilding their relationships with their foodways and creating more just systems while doing so.  We have explored many of these stories on Root Words over the past few years.   In episode 4, Sugaring in Vermont, Vermont Abenaki chef Jessee Lawyer describes his experience practicing traditional indigenous maple sugaring.  In episodes 10, 11, 15, and 16, We explore the Vermont Abenaki's quest for food sovereignty and preservation of their cultural food traditions, and hear from some allies in these efforts.     In episode 18 Taking Space, Vermont RELEAF Collective, I spoke with Olivia Pena, founder of Vermont RELEAF Collective, a network by Black Indigenous, & People of Color advancing Racial Equity in Land, Environment, Agriculture, & Foodways.  This Vermont BIPOC network amplifies and lifts marginalized voices, while building community and sharing opportunities around foodways and land stewardship.     If you haven't listened to our older episodes, they show some real depth to our communities' cultural and social practices around food, and they are worth a listen.   Instead of replaying a segment from one of these earlier episodes, I'd like to play a piece from an unaired interview I did with Rich Holshuh in October of 2021.  Rich is a citizen of the Elnu Abenaki Tribe, and working on the Atowi project that hopes to create balance with communities and with place.  Forced removal separated indigenous people from their land and foodways abruptly.  This and the cultural genocide that followed makes it very difficult for indigenous people to maintain their relationship with place and with their food system.  Rich's Atowi project is doing some really amazing work in partnership with the Brattleboro Retreat Farm and SuSu ComUNITY farm to address this reality.  Stay tuned for more on this work in future episodes of Root Words.   Many BIPOC organizations and networks are leading the way to reestablish relationships between communities and with place.    To learn about the work of Atowi and of SuSu CommUNITY Farm, check out atowi.org, and susucommunityfarm.org.     Here in Rutland, farmer and VFFC board president, Greg Cox feels that most people no longer know where our food comes from and we've been detached from our connection to place and to seasonal change because of it, resulting in poor mental and physical health for us as individuals and for our communities as a whole.  Greg feels that communities can be saved by rebuilding economic viability, beginning with a local food economy.  This belief led Greg and others to create the Vermont Farmers Food Center in 2012.     By focusing on seasonal community gathering around food, VFFC creates the space for authentic community connections and empathetic relationships between people and sets the stage for healing and restoration while reconnecting people to their home's natural cycles and rhythms.  By using local food as common ground, VFFC facilitates a place-based culture that engages the community.   Heidi Lynch is the executive director for Vermont Farmers Food Center.  Under Heidi's guidance, VFFC leads a grassroots effort to become more connected to community and place by gathering around local food.    A built awareness around our connections to nature and community through a local food web creates space for dialog, understanding, and healing.  We are all connected to place by our food and to each other through our community food web.  When you become a supporter of VFFC, you establish a local relationship with farmers, food producers, and community members.  You establish a relationship with place.  For more information on becoming a member of the community at VFFC, visit VFFC's website at vermontfarmersfoodcenter.org.    Food is the heart of one of our most intimate relationships with nature. We have the opportunity to connect with the land, the farmers, and our community when we restore relationships through the foods we choose to eat. Through a shared sense of place we can build trust and start healing our relationships with each other.   Rebuilding trust and our relationships with each other and with the land we occupy creates a strong foundation for food web resilience, but in order to bring the food system home you need a physical place, and it needs to be big and accessible. On the next Root Words we'll hear how a grassroots community effort worked to rescue an aging piece of the community's industrial past.     This episode was produced by Stephen Abatiell and Julia Anderson.   Special thanks to Steve Gorelick, Shane Rogers, Rich Holshuh, Greg Cox, and Heidi Lynch.   To learn more, check out the Atowi project at atowi.org, and SuSu CommUNITY Farm at susucommunityfarm.org.     For more information on the community at VFFC, visit vermontfarmersfoodcenter.org.  This Root Words series has been underwritten by Windswept Farm and Rutland Fluoride Action.    Barry Cohen of Windswept Farm strongly supports VFFC and is very encouraged with the Food Hub plan. Barry says, “My farm as well as my partner, The Squier Family Farm, expect to use the food hub facilities with it benefiting our process and profit.”   The folks at Rutland Fluoride Action are dedicated to ending fluoridation of the Rutland City water supply, learn more at RutlandFluorideAction.org.

In November 1933 Weird Tales featured the first published science fiction of Catherine L. Moore, who wrote under the name CL Moore. This story Shambleau features a very cosmic horror style vampire and space rogue decades before Han Solo became a thing. This story has the elegant purple prose that Lovecraft was known for while at the same time featuring themes that would be considered lurid today. In this episode we look into CL Moore's life, growing up in my home state of Indiana, going to college walking distance from my childhood home, her first adventures in publishing, and then of course we talk about the story. Featuring Cora Buhlert who won a Hugo award for best fan writer since we recorded this episode, and bestselling author and editor Greg Cox.

As we come out of winter, the energy of spring starts flowing in our forests again.  Cold nights and warm days don't just mean muddy roads, they mean the sap's flowing again, and it's sugar season.  All over the state folks are boiling in outdoor kettles, homemade evaporators, and sugar houses. In celebration of the season, we're putting out this Sugaring in Vermont episode from our archive.  The episode features a lot of folks from a story gathering we hosted in 2019, including Grace Korzun.  Grace passed away this past October, and we'd like to dedicate this episode re-release in her memory.  Hope you enjoy, and thanks for listening. In this episode we explore the the tree that connects so many of us to place and community, the sugar maple. This episode was produced by Stephen Abatiell, Kara Fitzbeauchamp, and special guest Jessee Lawyer of The Dawnland Kitchen.
