Investigators from the Michigan State Police (MSP) Alpena Post and the Alcona County Sheriff's Department are seeking information from the public to help identify human remains found in Northern Michigan 23 years ago.
A bow hunter discovered the human skeletal remains in October 1994 while walking in a wooded area off Bamfield Road, between Curtisville and Alcona Dam, in Alcona County. The Alcona County Sheriff's Department was the lead investigating agency with the MSP crime lab assisting in the recovery of the remains from the scene.
Michigan State University Anthropologists have determined the remains are that of a female 30-50 years old and approximately 4' 7" to 5' 6" tall. The woman was likely of European ancestry, commonly referred to as Caucasian, but no population group should be excluded. Evidence of a fracture to the skull indicates she may have experienced some type of trauma at or around the time of her death. The remains may have been in the wooded area for up to four years before being discovered.
As DNA technology advanced, so has the investigation. A mitochondrial DNA sample was collected by scientists at the University of North Texas Health Science Center for Human Identification and a full DNA profile has been uploaded to the Combined DNA Index System (CODIS) database. A case profile has been posted on the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) database at https://identifyus.org/en/cases/8371.
First image (left) – Two-dimensional sketch completed by a MSP forensic artist. This was drawn in graphite and used anthropological landmarks on the skull to give a glimpse of what the woman may have looked like when alive.
Second image (middle) – Digital rendering completed by a forensic artist from Louisiana State University's Missing Persons Molecular and Medical Genetics Department. This technique was aided by a 3D scan of the skull.
Third image (right) – 3D clay model of the skull completed by a FBI forensic artist. This technique is much like the two-dimensional approach, but uses clay applied to the cast skull.
If you have a lead on who this person might be, please contact D/Sgt. Jennifer Pintar, MSP Alpena Post, 989-354-4101 or Deputy Nathanael Leeseberg, Alcona County Sheriff's Department, 989-724-6271.
Michigan State University Department of Fisheries and Wildlife invites teachers, educators and volunteers to three evenings of Sportfishing and Aquatic Resource Education at the Wittenbach Wege Center, 11715 Vergennes SE, Lowell, Michigan, on December 4, 12, and 14, from 5:30-9:00pm each day.
This workshop is open to anyone, even those who may want to learn a bit more about fishing to be able to volunteer for local fishing events, or even teach you own family!
Coordinated through Michigan State University's Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, this workshop is a partnership with MSU Extension, MSU 4-H Youth Development, Department of Natural Resources, Wittenbach/Wege Agiscience Center, schools, and community service organizations and many others to educate young people about our natural resources through FISHING.
This is a workshop based on the Project FISH philosophy of hands on, multiple-contact sportfishing and aquatic resource education. We will offer activities in Aquatic Ecology, Tackle Crafting, People and Fish Management and actual Angling Skills. Participants will leave with curriculum activities, equipment, even a fishing rod & reel, and access to supplies and resources to begin a successful fishing program/club with children in the classroom or in an after school setting.
Michael Lemanski holding his state-record cisco (formerly known as lake herring).
The Michigan Department of Natural Resources confirmed last week that a new state-record had been set for the fish known as cisco (formerly known as lake herring). This marks the second state-record fish caught in 2017.
The fish was caught Friday, June 9, at 10 a.m. by Michael Lemanski of Florence, Wisconsin, on Lake Ottawa in Iron County in the western Upper Peninsula. Lemanski was still-fishing with a homemade jig. The fish weighed 6.36 pounds and measured 21.8 inches.
Jennifer Johnson, a DNR fisheries biologist in Crystal Falls, verified the record.
Robert Rogers, of Hartford, Wisconsin, set the previous state-record for cisco (lake herring) in 1992, when he caught one while trolling the East Arm of Grand Traverse Bay. That fish weighed 5.4 pounds and measured 25 inches.
State records are recognized by weight only. To qualify for a state record, fish must exceed the current listed state-record weight and identification must be verified by a DNR fisheries biologist.
To view a current list of Michigan state-record fish visit michigan.gov/staterecordfish.
The Michigan High School Athletic Association has completed its second year of collecting head injury reports from member schools and continues to build data that will assist in identifying trends and progress being made to reduce the incidence of head injuries in school sports.
Following a first mandate to do so in 2015-16, member schools again were required to report head injuries to the MHSAA identifying the sport that each student-athlete was participating in and whether the injury was sustained during practice or competition. As reporting for the 2017-18 school year is now underway, schools again are required to designate if potential concussions occur during competition or practice and at which level—varsity, junior varsity or freshman.
The full report of all head injuries experienced during 2016-17 by student-athletes at MHSAA member high schools—including percentages by sport (per 1,000 participants), gender and team level, as well as data tracking when athletes returned to play—is available on the Health & Safety page of the MHSAA Website at https://www.mhsaa.com/portals/0/Documents/health%20safety/concussionreport1617.pdf.
As with the first year of reporting, the MHSAA received data from more than 99 percent of its member high schools after the fall, winter and spring seasons and continued to track each injury report through its conclusion this summer. Member junior high and middle schools also were allowed, although not mandated, to report their potential head injuries; and those findings are not part of the published report.
The 2016-17 concussion report found an 11-percent decrease in the number of confirmed concussions from the previous year. Student-athletes at MHSAA member high schools encountered during 2016-17 a total of 3,958 head injuries—or 5.2 per member school, similar but lower than the 2015-16 average of 5.9. Total participation in MHSAA sports for 2016-17 was 283,625, with students counted once for each sport he or she played and only 1.4 percent of participants experienced a head injury; that percentage in 2015-16 was 1.6.
Although the total number of confirmed concussions was significantly lower in 2016-17, a number of findings detailing those injuries fell in line with results of the 2015-16 survey.
Boys experienced 2,607—or 66 percent—of those injuries, nearly the same ratio as 2015-16 and as boys participation in sports, especially contact sports, remained higher than girls. More than half of head injuries—55 percent—were experienced by varsity athletes, which also fell within a percent difference of last year's findings.
A total of 2,973 head injuries—or 65 percent—came in competition as opposed to practice. More than half took place during either the middle of practice or middle of competition as opposed to the start or end, and 52 percent of injuries were a result of person-to-person contact. The largest percentage of athletes—27 percent—returned to activity after 6 to 10 days, while 23 percent of those who suffered head injuries returned after 11-15 days of rest. All of these findings were within 1-4 percent of those discovered from the 2015-16 data.
Contact sports again revealed the most head injuries. Ranking first was football, 11 and 8-player combined, with 44 head injuries per 1,000 participants—a decrease of five head injuries per 1,000 participants from 2015-16. Ice hockey repeated with the second-most injuries per 1,000, with 36 (down two injuries per 1,000 from 2015-16), and girls soccer was again third with 28 head injuries per 1,000 participants (also down two from the previous year).
In fact, after football and hockey, the next four sports to show the highest incidences of head injuries were girls sports—girls soccer followed by girls basketball (23 per 1,000), girls competitive cheer (22) and girls lacrosse (20). Although girls basketball moved up from fifth to fourth for highest ratio, it did see a decline of six injuries per 1,000 participants from 2015-16.
Startling indications of another potential trend were seen again in the number of reported head injuries suffered by girls and boys playing the same sports. Soccer, basketball and baseball/softball are played under identical or nearly identical rules. Just as in 2015-16, females in those sports reported significantly more concussions than males playing the same or similar sport.
Female soccer players reported double the concussions per 1,000 participants as male soccer players, while female basketball players reported nearly triple the number of concussions per 1,000 participants (23 to 8). Softball players reported 11 concussions per 1,000 participants, and baseball players reported four per 1,000. The numbers from all three comparisons remained consistent from what the survey found in 2015-16.
It is the hope that Michigan's universities, health care systems and the National Federation of State High School Associations will take part in analyzing the data and questions that have arisen during the past two years. Michigan State University's Institute for the Study of Youth Sports submitted a paper titled "Gender Differences in Youth Sports Concussion" based on the 2015-16 results, and that subject will remain closely monitored in 2017-18 and beyond.
"The Institute's research concluded that there is merit for believing females may be more susceptible than males to having concussions because of structural differences to the neck and head, and also due to neurological differences in the brains of females and males. But the findings also show merit for believing females may be more honest in reporting concussions," said MHSAA Executive Director John E. "Jack" Roberts.
Roberts said that while it's significant to note the similarity in statistics over the first two years of injury report collection, the lower percentages in 2016-17 don't necessarily represent a trend; that conclusion can only be made after more data is collected in years to come. Some differences in data from the first year to the second could be the result of schools' increased familiarity with the reporting system, the refinement of the follow-up reporting procedure and other survey error that is expected to decrease with future surveys.
"Our first survey in 2015-16 raised some initial themes, and the data we collected this past year and will continue to collect will help us identify the trends that will guide our next steps in reducing head injuries in interscholastic athletics," Roberts said. "However, the necessity for more data to determine these trends should not delay our efforts to experiment with more head protection and modified play and practice rules in contact sports like ice hockey, soccer, wrestling and lacrosse, which all ranked among the top 10 sports for numbers of head injuries per thousand participants.
Schools report possible concussions online via the MHSAA Website. Reports are then examined by members of the MHSAA staff, who follow up with school administrators as those student-athletes continue to receive care and eventually return to play. Student privacy is protected.
The reporting of possible concussions is part of a three-pronged advance by the MHSAA in concussion care begun during the 2015-16 school year. The MHSAA completed this past spring (2017) the largest-ever state high school association sideline concussion testing pilot program, with a sample of schools from across the state over the last two years using one of two screening tests designed to detect concussions. The second year of the pilot program (2016-17) allowed participating schools to use the sideline detection tests in all sports but mandated they be used in sports (11 total over three seasons) showing the highest prevalence of concussions.
The MHSAA also was the first state association to provide all participants at every member high school and junior high/middle school with insurance intended to pay accident medical expense benefits—covering deductibles and co-pays left unpaid by other policies—resulting from head injuries sustained during school practices or competitions and at no cost to either schools or families. During 2016-17, a total of 139 claims were made—20 fewer than in 2015-16—with football (44) and girls basketball (27) the sports most cited in those claims for the second straight year.
Previously, the MHSAA also was among the first state associations to adopt a return-to-play protocol that keeps an athlete out of activity until at least the next day after a suspected concussion, and allows that athlete to return to play only after he or she has been cleared unconditionally for activity by a doctor (M.D. or D.O.), physician's assistant or nurse practitioner.
In addition, the MHSAA's Coaches Advancement Program, which includes courses that must be completed by all varsity head coaches hired for the first time at a member school, has augmented for this fall its already substantial instruction on concussion care. Separately, rules meetings that are required viewing for all varsity and subvarsity head and assistant coaches at the start of each season include detailed training on caring for athletes with possible head injuries.

Pakistan – in a state of emergency.
Homelessness is a very complex issue. There are many things that can lead to someone becoming homeless, including the following reasons.
Unemployment is always an issue for some, but has become so for more people over the last two or three years due to the economic climate. The reasons for unemployment leading to homelessness are obvious, if people lose their jobs they may no longer be able to afford to pay the mortgage or rent. This has been a particular problem due to some of the large mortgages some have. In many ways, this is all a knock on effect of the rise in house prices over the last few years.
Addiction to drugs or alcohol can take over someone's life. This can cause all sorts of social problems for the individuals involved and makes it very difficult to function properly. It is one of the most common causes of homelessness. It can lead to unemployment or relationship breakdown, which then goes on to cause homelessness.
Those in abusive families may feel they have no option but to leave their home, and if they have nowhere else they can go it may lead to homelessness. There are many young homeless who sleep on the streets and these include those who left home due to abuse. But it is also adults who can suffer abuse. Many are homeless due to abuse from their partner. This is more common with women than men.
Many who leave prison have nowhere to go and to begin with they may have no obvious income stream. This means they have no home to go to, and are unable to afford to buy or rent anywhere. Therefore, the streets may be the only option. The authorities have often been criticised for not having systems in place that can help those released from prison. It is not only homelessness that can be caused by this, but reoffending, and for some it can become a vicious cycle.
A surprising number of people end up homeless following a divorce. If a family breaks up someone will have to find somewhere new to live, and this is not necessarily easy. There may be no obvious place to go and lack of money might be a problem. Some may end up sleeping on the streets temporarily, and for a few this can lead to longer term homelessness.
In the UK a lack of social housing is sometimes a cause of homelessness. The list of those requiring housing is significantly longer than the amount of social housing available. A large part of the issue is the price of housing meaning it is unaffordable for many.
In some countries natural disasters can lead to homelessness. Obviously regions where natural disasters are more commonplace are more susceptible to this. This is less likely in richer countries where better contingency plans are usually in place, although the affects of Hurricane Katrina in the United States in 2005 is an example of a rich country where a natural disaster lead to many becoming homeless.


Europe faces yet another recession, and the prospect is shaking global financial markets. To eliminate the persistent threat of collapse, Europe must drop the euro, and Germany must abandon mercantilism.
When the euro was adopted in 1999, domestic prices, the face values for bonds and loans, and bank accounts were translated into euros according to prevailing exchange rates for national currencies at the time.
Initially, the single currency posed few significant problems. Over time, however, differences in labor market policies and geographic conditions that are difficult for governments to alter caused productivity to grow more rapidly in Germany and other northern economies. Also, Germany and northern states pursued mercantilist, exported-driven growth strategies.
Prices for many goods made in Italy and other southern economies became too high to be competitive in the north. Those countries imported more than they exported and financed the resulting trade deficits by borrowing from the north.
In Spain, a property boom permitted homeowners to run up large mortgages, and banks borrowed heavily from the north to finance those. In Italy and Greece, governments spent and borrowed heavily through bond financing to prop up employment.
In the wake of the global financial crisis, private borrowers and governments could not pay their debts. To obtain financial assistance from the IMF, European Central Bank and northern European governments, Mediterranean governments implemented severe austerity.
Budgets were slashed, and unemployment rocketed but fundamental problems went unaddressed. Wages and prices remain too high in the south, and German Chancellor Merkel clings to mercantilism.
Europe never fully recovered from the Great Recession. Unemployment exceeds 12 percent in Italy and Portugal and is about 25 percent in Spain and Greece.
Deprived of markets for exports in the south, industrial production in Germany fell this summer, and across Europe inflation is nearly zero.
The European Central Bank, unlike the U.S. Federal Reserve, is prohibited by its charter from purchasing trillions of euros of bank and government securities to prop up growth, but in any case, that would be only a temporary fix.
With mortgages and businesses loans denominated in euros, it is tough for prices to fall the 25 percent needed in southern economies to make exports competitive in the north. If workers and businesses took wage and price cuts that large, they would default on loans underwritten by creditors in the north.
However, if southern countries again had their own currencies, their exchange rates against the German and other northern-country currencies could fall enough to make their exports competitive in the north.
For the perpetual economic crisis in Europe to end, two things are necessary.
Europeans must recognize that the euro is a straightjacket that impedes price adjustments to compensate for differences in productivity among countries and permit markets to function effectively. The euro is not necessary–the European Union enjoyed prosperity, not unending recession, before the euro.
Germany and other northern states must recognize to have adequate markets for their exports they must import too, or their southern customers must borrow ever larger sums–something financial markets cannot accommodate. Northern governments must readjust their economies to balanced trade with the south, and substantially increase domestic consumption, likely through increased government spending.
Germany, having the largest economy and being the most significant creditor state, must recognize these realities but Merkel, like a medieval doctor bleeding a patient, clings to the false notion that austerity and double digit unemployment will cure southern Europe–it simply won't.
Italy and other southern states must abandon their antiquated labor market policies and profligate government spending. Germany must reform too, and the euro must go.

Backyard sanctuaries are pleasant for both birds and people, and they're fairly easy to provide. Consider the basic elements of habitat: Food, water and shelter.
Providing food doesn't require filling feeders. Feeders can be fun because they draw birds for easy viewing, but they also require periodic cleaning to minimize spreading disease; usually once a month with a nine-to-one water to bleach solution. Hummingbird feeders require cleaning and refreshing every 2-3 days in summer.
Plants will feed birds with less fuss. Berries and seeds on shrubs, grasses and trees are natural food supplies. Flowers, especially tubular ones like fuchsia and penstemon, offer nectar to hummingbirds. Benign neglect of gardens leaves old seed heads for winter consumption and unraked leaves for scratching for the food they hold. Even without bird-edible fruits and seeds, plants feed insects which become the main source of protein for songbirds. Native plants are usually best, as they have evolved with the birds and insects of the area and usually support them most effectively.
Avoid pesticides and herbicides. At worst they poison the birds. At best they kill off the birds' food source.
Plants also offer shelter. Some birds roost high in trees, others in shrubs and others on the ground under brush. If décor and fire safety call for pruning, consider retaining some low shrubbery for sparrows or quail. Woodpeckers carve numerous holes in dead wood, creating homes used by many bird species. You may choose not to leave whole snags standing; just a standing trunk can invite excavations that bluebirds, wrens, flycatchers, titmice, nuthatches and swallows readily use.
Those familiar cavity-nesters will also use home-made nesting boxes. To find bird house directions go to www.wintuaudubon.org and click on "Places to bird/Attracting birds." It's best to mount your birdhouses in shaded areas in Shasta County.
Of course, ensure that your yard is as feline-free as possible. Outdoor cats kill 15-20 percent of North American birds every year, including nearly 50 percent of suburban fledglings.
A shallow pan of water, refreshed every day, makes an easy water supply. A trickle of running water invites more visits. Small pumps are inexpensive and can run a home-made fountain if electricity is safely available.
For permanent pools, mosquito-fish are available. Call the Shasta Mosquito and Vector Control District at 365-3768.
Consider commercial fountains carefully. Songbirds prefer shallow puddles. A sloping edge will accommodate birds of different sizes for both drinking and bathing. Steep edges inhibit use.
Birds have lost vast swathes of former habitat. The wildfires are hardly the worst of it. If we can curb the super-sizing of them, fires are natural and the cycle of light burn and fresh regrowth benefits many species. The more devastating disruption is the permanent and widespread habitat conversion of historical oak woodlands, wildflower fields and riparian meanders into row crops, monoculture orchards and tree farms, pavement and buildings. Now climate change is expected to further eliminate half the seasonal range of 314 North American bird species.
It's a tough time to be dependent on an ecosystem. We can shape our yards to offer the food, water and shelter that will help many birds still find homes.

The distractions in medicine make it easy for a physician at any stage in her career to feel frustrated, overwhelmed and discouraged. The pressure to compete can become more destructive than constructive. And when you measure your progress against your peers the results can add to further disappointment and rattle your confidence.
Physicians remember the moment the decision to become a doctor is made. At that moment there is a strong desire that motivates you to develop the plan and take the steps to achieve the goal. Quite possibly, you mapped out more than one pathway that would lead you to medical school, graduation, training, and achieving your goal. The goal of becoming a doctor.
So how did you get off course? How do you lose sight of the career and life that you had always dreamed of? When did you take your focus off your goal?
What you may not have realized is becoming a doctor is not the end goal. In fact it is just the beginning. Achieving the MD is the beginning of the real work of building a life and career that honors your gifts and talents, and allows you to be of service to the patients and medical community you choose. The success you desire is within your reach when you commit to defining and refining the vision for your life and career. Your vision will continue to blossom as you achieve one milestone, such as becoming a doctor, and then move towards the next. Begin the process of defining and refining your clear vision with these 3 steps.
Create a clear vision of who you are in medicine. Yes, you are a doctor. What does that mean to you? It goes beyond the medical knowledge you've acquired and encompasses the gifts, talents, and experiences that contribute to your expertise. Why is this so important? Each of us have unique gifts and talents that we bring to our medical careers and are needed in medicine. They are often the very things that you do so easily that you take them for granted. Your gifts, talents, and interest will direct your path. Some physicians are meant to be clinicians, others researchers, while others will find their home in nonclinical arenas. The objective in this first step is to take the time to define who you are and what is best for you that allows you to use your assets for career and life success. Once you've created your clear vision, you will use it as the backdrop to future decision making. You can stop comparing your path to others and define success on your own terms.
Commit to lifelong learning. Although medical school graduation was the end of formal academic education, the learning is just beginning. Success in the modern world of medicine requires far more than the knowledge of the medical school curriculum. The advances in technology now demand a certain level of mastery of the technology used in your specialty. Then there is learning how to optimize your communications skills, your leadership skills, and your people management and negotiation skills, to name a few. Mastery of these skills can make you a sought after expert. Neglecting this skill set can keep you struggling to get ahead.
Clear the Clutter. Clearing the clutter is a critical piece to creating your clear vision of success. It creates the space for you to see where you are and where you are going. The first step in clearing the clutter is to shift from negativity and what is missing in medicine and focus on the possibilities of your desires. Much of the media and online presence around medicine focuses on the problem of what is not working in healthcare. The solutions that you seek in your career and in your life often can't be found in the midst of the problem. Negativity and complaining has become so ingrained in the culture of medicine that we are often unaware it.
One recommendation to clients is to keep a diary of their conversations. At the end of the day review the entries and evaluate whether they were life affirming and inspiring or did they leave you feeling stressed out. Often clients are surprised at how much of their inner and outer conversations are not helpful.
Physicians who make the decision to stop comparing and complaining open themselves up to the world of possibilities. They become empowered to see how they are uniquely positioned to create solutions for their work environment, their career path, and their life. From this positive, solution oriented vision, they attract the right people and the right opportunities to move to their next level of success.
Interested in discovering how defining and refining your clear vision can catapult you to your next level of success? Let's connect and talk. Email me at Stephanie@NurturingMDs.com to get acquainted.

Not So Wordless Wednesday – Frederick Hudson Family
I have recently posted about Frederick Hudson and his wife Sarah Morris. The blog posts were transcriptions of the obituaries I found for them on my recent trip to Kansas. You can read them here: Frederick and Sarah. Both of the obituaries are the old school articles full of details and descriptive drama.
I was able to locate these obituaries on my trip because of the research I did before visiting the Kansas State Archives. My process was to first look at my family tree to see who lived in Kansas and what information I have for them. Next I checked online databases and family trees to see if there was any additional information (or hints) available about these people. Once that was completed, I spent hours combing through the online catalog for the archives to make a list of microfilm to pull.
I enjoyed the pre-research research. Not only did I identify holes in my research, I met a new cousin. When searching for Frederick Hudson on www.ancestry.com, I found an online family tree that included a photo of the entire family!!
I quickly emailed the owner of the tree. We have confirmed that we are third cousins with Frederick Hudson as our common ancestor. I asked and Carol gave me permission to download a copy of the family photo and use it on this website.
My direct line ancestors are Clemie Lou Hudson and her parents, Frederick Hudson and Sarah Jane Morris.
The first copy is one I have altered to identify each family member.
This copy is unaltered. The back of the photo reads:
Back Row L to R, Berry Hudson, George Hudson, Ralph Hudson.
Next row L to R, Sytha Lester Hudson Moore, Minnie Hudson Hetzer,
Frederic Hudson, Clemie Lou Hudson Lawbaugh, Sarah Morris Hudson,
Mary Belle Hudson Goodman Howard.
"This picture given to me (Edna Lucille Moore Conner), daughter of Sytha Lester Hudson Moore, by Frances Hudson, wife of Virgil Hudson after his death Jan 2, 1968. His father was Berry Hudson (Uncle Berry was buried in Northwest corner Elmwood cemetery K.C. Mo. 12th & Elmwood, 12th Street side of Elmwood Cemetery. Virgil Hudson buried in La Cygne cemetery. George & Ralph Hudson buried in LaCygne. Sytha Lester Hudson Moore buried in Mt. Moriah cemetery (block 10) K.C. Mo. Minnie Hudson Hetzer buried in La Cygne cemetery – so is Frederic & Sarah Hudson also Aunt Belle Hudson Howard."
Sunday's Obituary – Sarah J Morris
Sarah Morris is my 3rd great-grandmother.
She is another ancestor that I really do not know much about. I found her obituary at the Kansas State Archives on my trip to Kansas last month. I feel really lucky to have another great obituary in the paper to learn more about my ancestor. Along with a lot of personal information about Sarah, the obituary has great descriptions of the grief of the family.
Mrs. Sarah J Hudson
Another of La Cygne's good mothers has passed from this world to her home in heaven. A family that she has tenderly cared for and nursed to manhood and womanhood is now deep in grief. The old home that has been one continued pleasure for more than a quarter of a century with a good mother presiding over it is now stilled in the sadness that death brings.
Last Monday afternoon the spirit of Sarah J. wife of Frederick Hudson, departed this life and went to claim the reward in heaven that is promised to all good women. Mrs. Hudson had been in poor health for some time and while it really could be no surprise that the silver cord of life should sever at the ripe old age the deceased had attained, yet even with that possibility the friends and relatives were unprepared to meet the crisis. To take from the home the mother who has been its guardian for so many years is something that is hard to temper the heart to forego.
Sarah J. Morris was born in Pike county, Illinois, August 6, 1835; she was married to Frederick Hudson December 30, 1855 and they removed to Kansas the winter of 1880 where they have resided ever since. In the sixteenth year of her life the deceased joined the Christian church and has been a worker for the Lord ever since. She leaves a husband, and seven children who are W.B. Hudson of Kansas City, Mrs. W.H. Lawbaugh of Wellington, Kansas, Mrs. F.H. Howard, Mrs. Chas. Moore, Mrs. L. H. Hetzer, and Ralph and George Hudson all of this place to mourn her death. Two brothers, Samuel Morris of Dallas, Texas and Geo. Morris of Pittsburgh, Kansas also survive.
Funeral services were held at the family home in the south part of town on Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock by Elder R.A. Odenweller of Pleasanton. His remarks were very beautiful and he pictured the kind and loving woman who had fought life's battles to the end and through it all maintained a sweet friendship for all. After the ceremony at the home the large concourse of grief stricken friends interred the body of the departed on in the Oak Lawn cemetery.

Sunday's Obituary – Frederick Hudson of La Cygne, Kansas
Frederick Hudson is my 3rd great grand father on my maternal side.
I found this obituary at the Kansas State Archives last weekend. I was so excited to find an obituary that offered so much information! Definitely another dancing at the microfilm reader moment. You know you are among friends when other researchers do not look at you funny but instead smile at your victory dance. My favorite part of the obituary is the description of the moments when Fred passed away. La Cygne is pronounced La Scene. Thank you to my Kansas cousins for teaching me this!!
Old Citizen Passes Away
Fred Hudson died at his home in the south part of town Tuesday evening. He had been a resident of La Cygne since 1880 and had an active part in building the town. Bricklayer and plasterer by trade, soon after coming here he started a brick yard and began manufacturing brick. Most of the brick buildings in town are built with the Hudson brick. Because of failing health Mr. Hudson quit active work several years ago.
Frederick Hudson was born in Scalford, Leicestershire, England, August 22, 1834, and died in La Cygne, Kan., May 22, 1923, at the age of 88 years and 9 months.
When about nine years of age he came with his parents to America, making the voyage in a sail ship. Landing at New Orleans he traveled up the Mississippi River to Illinois, where he grew to manhood and worked with his father at the bricklaying and plastering trade which he followed so many years.
He was married to Sarah G Morris at Milton, Ill., on December 30, 1855. To this union were born ten children, four of whom are still living and were with him when the end came. With his family he moved to La Cygne, January 1, 1880 and since the death of his wife, 19 years ago he has made his home with his son Ralph and family who have cared for him so devotedly, sparing no pains to make his life as pleasant as it was possible to do. Two or three years ago he suffered a stroke of paralysis but recovered sufficiently to be around most of the time, until last Friday morning when he had a serious attack and never fully regained consciousness. He made a confession of religion in his early manhood and later united with the Christian church at La Cygne during Rev. Irwin's meetings several years ago and was one of the deacons of the church for some time, but owing to his age and failing health he had not been very active in church work in late years.
He was an honest, upright citizen, honorable in all his dealings, a good neighbor, a devoted husband, a kind and loving father and a friend to those in need. He bore his sufferings patiently with never a murmur or complaint, and after a life of usefulness he passed peacefully away just as the sun was sinking to rest, and when the spirit was taking its flight he quietly laid his hands down as though he had finished his work and passed to his reward. His wife and two sons, W.B. and George H., and one daughter, Mrs. Belle Howard preceded him in death several years ago; also three children died in infancy.
He leaves one son, Ralph, of La Cygne; three daughters, Mrs. Clem Lawbaugh of Wellington, Mrs. Minnie Hetzer and Mrs. Sytha Moore of Parker, eighteen grand children, eight great-grandchildren and a host of relatives and friends to mourn his loss.
Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Boyer at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Hudson and the body was laid to rest in Oak LawnCemetery.
Those from out of town for the funeral were: Mr. and Mrs. C.A. Moore and children and Mr. and Mrs. L.H. Hetzer of Parker; Mrs Clem Lawbaugh and son of Wellington; Mrs. Ida Hudson, Mrs, Irvin Wagner and Mrs. Hazel Smith of Kansas City; Fred Moore of Miami Station, Mo.

Reports: bloody cricket bat found in Pistorius's bedroom
By Matthew KitchenFeb 18, 2013, 12:30 PM EST
A South African newspaper is suggesting that a bloody cricket bat found at the home of Oscar Pistorius last Thursday could be the key piece of evidence in the ongoing murder case.
The well-regarded City Press, citing sources close to the investigation, is reporting that police officers found the bat in Pistorius's bedroom after being called to his house Thursday morning to investigate the murder of Pistorius's girlfriend, model Reeva Steenkamp.
"There was lots of blood on the bat. Forensic tests will show whose blood it was," said a source the paper claimed had inside knowledge of the case, but police are suggesting this information didn't come from them.
The City Press also reports that Steenkamp's skull was crushed and that Pistorius carried her downstairs to his foyer, where paramedics tended to her before she died last Thursday.
"Steenkamp was still breathing and Pistorius tried to resuscitate her in the foyer," the report continued. "Paramedics and police arrived on the scene and, minutes later, she was declared dead.
"Steenkamp was wearing her nightie at the time. When the police inspected Oscar's bedroom, they found her overnight bag and iPad on the floor. A holster for a 9mm pistol was found on Oscar's side of the bed."
Lastly, the paper alleges that Pistorius called a family member Thursday morning, but not the cops, who were alerted to the scene by the sprinter's neighbor.

In Defense: Lullaby Covers, Part II – Rock 'n' Roll
Posted by Jaime Joshi at 5:00 pm	Add comments
In Defense takes a second look at a much maligned cover artist or album and asks, "Was it really as bad as all that?"
When it comes to parenting, there are really only two rules you need to follow:
1) Mammas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys.
2) Mammas, don't let your babies grow up to listen to bad music.
I'm sure there's something else in there about head injuries and not touching the stove, but I don't have kids so that's not really my area of expertise.
What I do know is that music that caters solely to children is, for lack of a better term, insidious crap formulated to make adults weep in agony. Almost aggressively cheerful and mind-numblingly repetitive, children's music operates on the misconception that children aren't very bright, and therefore aren't capable of understanding or appreciating the adult concepts found in good music.
Admittedly, "I've been afraid of changing because I built my life around you," is a heavy concept to lay on a five-year-old, but they do understand sadness, and is there any song more heartwrenching than Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide"?
The original is devastating, and the addition of twinkly, tinkling instrumentation only serves to cement the song's legacy as the aural equivalent of teardrops.
Great music – even lullaby covers of it – fosters a well-rounded perspective, and in an increasingly global society, erudition is something a parent should aim for.
There have been countless studies on musical neuroscience, and at Scotland's Heriot-Watt University, Professor Adrian North theorizes that one's taste in music is directly connected to their personality. In a study of over 36,000 in over 60 countries taken over the course of three years, North asked participants to rate a range of musical styles in order of preferences.
In no big surprise to anyone, reggae fans were considered to have laid-back personalities. However, fans of Top 40 pop music were considered to be ill at ease and uncreative… which might help explain the unfathomable success of "#SELFIE" by the Chainsmokers, which peaked at #16 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Want your kid to get into college? You've got to make like the tobacco industry and hook 'em on the good stuff while they're young. In this case, the "good stuff" being jazz (credited with fans who have high self-esteem as well as high levels of creativity), blues (credited with fans who are creative, outgoing and gentle) and soul (whose fans are typically creative, gentle and at ease).
Although these rock lullabies are created for children, I have no shame in admitting just how many times these cover songs have lulled me to sleep. There is a tremendous amount of comfort derived from the familiar, and for me, comfort comes in the form of the music I grew up listening to.
When you're winding down for the night and trying to clear the day's static from your head, Eddie Vedder howling about an inability to find a better man doesn't exactly put your mind at ease. On the other hand, a wordless, wood-block accented version of the track will even the flow of your breathing and have you sleeping like a child, proverbial and otherwise.
Yes, lullaby covers of beloved songs could be considered twee or (worse yet) dilutions of the originals, but they serve a pretty great purpose – they help introduce children to music that will carry them through the rest of their lives.
Besides, your kid sing-shouting about a Little Deuce Coupe is a helluva lot more tolerable than him caterwauling about the tire rotation of the city bus.

Famous Islamic experts note that her translation of Quran is not only accurate, but is also made in poetical form. It is closer to the original than all the previous Russian translations. The translation was finished in 1991 and submitted to the Islamic academy Al-Azhar for review.
She said in an interview in 2011, "When I read the Quran, I felt in love with it, which made me translate it into Russian".
She also admitted that she found a lot of difficulties, but scholars like Sheikh Ahmad Kaftaro, the former Mufti of Syria, and his son Sheikh Mahmoud Kaftaro helped her a lot thorough her work.

Local organization provides free meals for children during the summer
Posted 3:45 pm, June 5, 2019, by Troy Washington, Updated at 05:30PM, June 5, 2019
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — School is out. That means some children aren't getting the consistent and balanced meals that they're used to.
All throughout the city, there are plenty of places that are offering free meals to children in need.
"Sometimes during the summer weather, children don't get a chance to get a wholesome meal like they would during the school year," Willean Lee, with Creative Life Incorporated, said.
Lee has specialized in making sure children receive meals during the summertime for 15 years.
"We are having baked chicken, we are having broccoli, we are having baked potatoes, as well as a roll, an apple and their choice of milk," she said.
At Creative Life Incorporated a nutritious meal is always on the menu.
"I grew up in south Memphis. I know about the Summer Feed Program, because I was apart of it as well."
Meaning, she isn't serving half-hearted plates. Lee is a product of the very program she's working with now.
"It's a real good feeling to come back and service others in the community."
Aside from serving up the food groups, the program is keeping the brain going too.
"We took them out today to the Civil Rights Museum, and every Thursday we do a field trip."
It's all at no cost to parents.
Creative Life Incorporated is located at 1222 Riverside Blvd. Meals will be provided until July 19. Breakfast is served is served from 7:45 a.m. to 8:45 a.m. Lunch is served from noon to 1 p.m.
Meals are provided on a first come, first serve basis. For more information call (901)-775-0304.
For parents looking for summer camps, those are out there too.
The city of Memphis has sports camps starting now through July 2019. If you would like to learn more, click here. The Memphis Police Department is also putting on a free camp for children.

What will Marvel Studios do next?
Marvel Studios has been around since 1993, when it was founded to pursue film opportunities for Marvel Comics characters. Prior to this, only a handful of films had been made based on these characters, and they had been dismal, low-budget affairs. While rival comics company DC had seen the Superman and Batman franchises yield blockbusters, Marvel had yet to find the same success. Marvel Studios helped change that, negotiating deals with major studios and exerting greater creative control.
They found success early on, as partnerships with New Line Cinema, 20th Century Fox and Columbia Pictures yielded Blade (1998), X-Men (2000) and Spider-Man (2002), respectively. Each of those three films was considered both an artistic and commercial success, and each would yield an even more successful sequel. While other Marvel properties were not as critically well received (including Daredevil, the Ang Lee-directed Hulk, two Punisher movies, Elektra, two Fantastic Four movies, Ghost Rider, and the abysmal third chapters of the Blade, X-Men and Spider-Man franchises), few were actually box office bombs and the power of Marvel Studios continued to grow.
Finally, in 2008, the company was able to begin producing films independently. This is where I come in. I had watched some of the earlier movies, and had even found some of them enjoyable, especially the first two X-Men movies, which were ridiculous in many ways but had good character development. I was not prepared for Marvel was able to do with full control of its own creations, though. I read some comic books as a kid, and had a vague idea of who all of these super-people were, but I wouldn't have considered myself a fan-boy. However, that all changed when I saw these films. The independent Marvel movies have become like heroin to me, and I am an unapologetic junkie.
Marvel Studios does three things differently than anyone else doing superhero films:
1) They stayed true to the characters. They changed some of the details, but the essence of who those characters are did not change. They didn't dumb anything down and they didn't compromise their ability to tell a larger story over time by throwing the coolest parts of 17 different story lines together in the first movie. They knew their characters inside out and had faith that those characters had deep reservoirs of compelling stories to tell. They gambled that audiences would like them for who they were.
2) They stayed loyal to their fan base. Comic books are action-packed, larger-than-life, pseudo-science, short-attention-span, soap operas. So are Marvel's movies. They tend to not hold anything back, and are filled with the same sense of wonder, humor and balls-to-the-wall excitement that got our blood pumping as eight-year-olds. Ang Lee tried to make an artistic Hulk movie that was filled with allegories of human nature. Marvel understood that the Hulk needs to smash things. Sure, there's some romance and intrigue and other fine plot points to consider, but Marvel makes sure that it never gets in the way of what they know we want to see.
3) They created a shared universe where all of their film characters co-existed. Each movie pretty much stands on its own, but by tying together very minor plot points and adding a heaping helping of Easter eggs in the background, they drive the fan-boys wild and set up a world where anything can happen.
Here is a list of all of the independent Marvel Studios movies to date that have either been released or scheduled for release:
Iron Man 3 – Merging Iron Man into the same universe as Thor opens up the possibility of bringing in Iron Man's most famous enemy: the Mandarin and his ten magic rings.
Marvel Studios has said they would like to release two films a year. The rights to a lot of their key properties still reside with other studios, which presumably will work hard to keep the rights: Columbia has Spider-Man. Crystal Sky has Ghost Rider, and Fox has X-Men (including Wolverine and Deadpool), the Fantastic Four (including Silver Surfer) and Daredevil. (P.S. – Fox sucks. I'd kill for Marvel to get the rights to Daredevil.) However, there are still plenty of other characters that Marvel could use to create compelling movies within the shared Marvel Cinematic Universe. Assuming they do make two movies per year from 2013 on, here is my best guess of what else we are likely to see for the rest of this decade:
Ant-Man – A founding member of the Avengers in the comics, Dr. Henry Pym creates a process that allows him to shrink to the size of an ant or grow as big as a skyscraper. According to Marvel Studios head-honcho Kevin Feige, the script (by Scott Pilgrim vs. the World director Edgar Wright) is almost complete. With any luck, it will also introduce Pym's eventual wife and fellow-Avenger, Janet van Dyne, a.k.a. the Wasp.
Doctor Strange – Rumors are that the studio is hard at work to make this one happen soon. Doctor Stephen Strange is Marvel's master of magic, and from what I understand he has some really cool and bizarre tales that would adapt well to screen. Johnny Depp might be a good choice for the lead. Guillermo del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth, Hellboy) should direct.
Captain America 2 – I would like to see this film further explore the character's adjustment to life in the modern world, while tying in elements of his former life in World War II through flashbacks. We could learn that the evil organization Hydra has survived and that Cap has to finish a job that he started long ago. This could also set up…
S.H.I.E.L.D. – Bring back the non-super-powered crew from The Avengers: Nick Fury, Black Widow, Hawkeye, etc. This movie could also introduce us to Carol Danvers (the future Ms. Marvel), Falcon and any number of other cool Kung-Fu/super-gadget folk. Here's a fact: the entire G.I. Joe franchise was originally created as a cheap copy of S.H.I.E.L.D. Let's see what the original can do. (I'm guessing James Bond meets The Fast and the Furious.)
Thor 2 – I don't know much about this character and I haven't seen the first one yet (it opens today in the U.S.!), but I think a sequel showing Thor at full power for two hours fighting some pretty nasty enemies could be great fun.
The Inhumans – When I was a kid, I saw a picture of Black Bolt and thought he was the coolest super hero I had ever seen. He is the leader of the Inhumans, a group of mutant/alien/I-don't-really-know-what people that live secretly in a secluded land. He never speaks, because a simple whisper from him will unleash enough power to knock down a building. He has other powers too, but I don't know what they are. Comic books were weird back in the 1970s. I didn't quite understand what I was reading. Still, from what I do understand, other people were similarly enchanted by these weirdos, and there might just be a story there.
The Black Panther – Dating back to 1966, this was the first major Black super-hero from either Marvel or DC, and remains a fan favorite. His real name is T'Challa, and he is king of the fictional African nation of Wakanda and a part-time Avenger. Introducing him in his own movie could set him up for a role in…
The Avengers 2 – Bring back the original crew, plus Ant-Man, Wasp, Black Panther and maybe Ms. Marvel. Do something over-the-top amazing that blows every other action movie that's ever been made out of the water. Is that too much to ask?
Heroes for Hire – Luke Cage (a.k.a. Power Man) and his partner Iron Fist are two more fan-favorites. They are an odd couple: think Rush Hour, but with Mr. T and Bruce Lee instead of Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan.
Captain America 3 – Now that we've seen Cap adjust to the modern world, this installment should see his world shaken to the core again by introducing an old friend turned enemy: the Winter Soldier.
Planet Hulk – One of the more popular Hulk story lines sees the Hulk banished to another planet because he's too dangerous for Earth, and he ends up conquering it or something, I think. Anyway, this would be too cool, so just do it.
Iron Man 4 – Sure, why not?
Thor 3 – Beta Ray Bill, anyone?
Annihilation – Featuring Nova and some of the other cosmic characters (although, sadly, not Galactus and the Silver Surfer, unless Marvel can get the rights back from Fox). It could be hinted at with references from previous cosmic movies like The Inhumans, Planet Hulk and even Thor 3 (especially if Beta Ray Bill is introduced).
S.H.I.E.L.D. 2 – We should be ready for another one if these if the first one did well. Winter Soldier could factor in, and maybe more new characters could make an appearance, like the Falcon. Also, this could set up…
The Avengers 3 – If we haven't seen Ultron yet, now could be the time. There are a host of other heroes (the Scarlet Witch, Wonder Man, the Vision, etc.) and baddies that we could see as well.
Namor, the Sub-Mariner – At this point, if Marvel is still going strong, I'm guessing they can even turn their naked-pointy-eared-fish-man-(with-wings-on-his-feet-WTF?) into a winning movie! Of course, this would launch a whole new realm of cross-over possibilities if Marvel Studios shouls re-acquire the rights to the Fantastic Four by then...
UPDATE: Marvel Studios has announced Thor 2 as its second film of 2013, much sooner than I had anticipated. Meanwhile, scripts for Ant-Man and Doctor Strange movies have been completed. Here, then, is an updated prediction with an emphasis on wrapping up the three-film Thor and Captain America franchises ASAP. I am assuming Iron Man will be the only franchise to go beyond three films – and maybe without Robrt Downey Jr. beyond the third installment.
2013 – Iron Man 3, Thor 2
2014 – Captain America 2, Doctor Strange
2015 – Ant-Man, S.H.I.E.L.D.
2016 – The Avengers 2, Heroes for Hire
2018 – Captain America 3, Doctor Strange 2
2019 – The Black Panther, Heroes for Hire 2
2020 – The Avengers 3, Annihilation
2021 – Iron Man 5, Planet Hulk
2022 – The Inhumans, Namor the Sub-Mariner
Towards the end of the decade, the emphasis shifts more to the cosmic side of Marvel. (And, of course, hopefully to the Fantastic Four if Marvel can re-acquire the rights.) By overlapping certain story elements, Marvel should be able to maintain continuity even as they de-emphasize characters like Thor and Captain America to avoid audience fatigue and allow their current crop of actors to roll. Then, after a suitable amount of time has passed, current characters can be re-introduced (with new actors if necessary) without losing any of that continuity.

Edition: up to 100
Category: Gallery Tag: solowiej-wedderburn
Danuta Solowiej (b. 1962) was born in Białystok, Poland. Her art education started with tapestry and painting at the Art Lyceum in nearby Supraśl. She then completed her masters in sculpture at the Fine Arts Academy in Warsaw, specialising in medallic art under Professor Zofia Demkowska. She came to London in 1987 with her husband-to-be, the wood-carver Hugh Wedderburn. In 1988 she was an inaugural student of a contemporary medal course at the Royal College of Art in London, where she was later a visiting lecturer for over two decades. Since her arrival in London she has been an active member of BAMS and later of FIDEM. In 2017 she became a freeman of the Goldsmiths' Company and was presented with the freedom of the City of London.
Solowiej works in several media, but modelling and polychromy are her preferred choices. Her focus on the tactile aspects of sculpture is reflected in the scale of her work. Exhibiting, teaching or making are important to her, but come in no particular order of preference as she finds that they influence and nurture each other. Over the years she has received a number of awards and commissions, some of which are represented in national and private collections worldwide. The plaster heads from her Witnesses series were shown in the British Museum's 2018-19 exhibition Witnesses: émigré medallists in Britain, along with a selection of medals from the museum's collection.
About her BAMS medal, Trust Your Instinct, the artist writes: 'I work by elimination, in pursuit of pure form. I'm after the synthesis of an idea. I would like to think that I'm in step with Matsuo Basho, who said that "The haiku that reveals seventy to eighty percent of its subject is good. Those that reveal fifty to sixty percent, we never tire of." I hope my medal falls within these parameters. I often think that medals are akin to haiku.
'The medal Trust Your Instinct is a reflection on our reasoning as individuals versus herd behaviour. Is symmetry-breaking a sign of rebellion or wisdom, does one exclude the other, who is the odd one out, is it ever clear? Taking advantage of the anatomy of the medal, its two-sidedness and the edge, I find it helpful to think this through.'
Solowiej, Danuta
Greetings From King's Cross

Bob Bytes Back Archive: 8/07/96 Out Of The Frying Pan
Governor George Voinovich couldn't "stand the heat," so "he got out of the kitchen." The Guv got out of the VP stakes because of the growing contract-steering scandal with links to organized crime figures in Cleveland. One look at Voinovich's FBI file would've had Bob Dole muttering "Bob Dole's not about these type of people." Voinovich would not have been able to withstand the national press scrutiny. His former chief of staff, Paul Mifsud, could've been mentored by Spiro Agnew-same type of construction kick-back problems.
The national press wouldn't have muzzled their bloodhounds like the Dispatch is now doing with Bob Ruth. Remember, the Guv's spokesperson, Mike Dawson, called Mafia associate and loan sharker Carmen Parise a "very, very good friend of the Governor." Parise was an associate of James T. (Jack White) Licavoli, reputed organized crime boss. The Guv nominated Parise to the Ohio Turnpike Commission, but he withdrew after the Akron Beacon Journal profiled his past.
The Guv then chose Umberto Fedeli. Fedeli would have you believe that he's a humble civil servant paid $5,000 a year to serve as commission chair where he works 20-30 hours a week and has to put up with nosy reporters. Like the ones at the Plain Dealer who want to know why people getting the construction contracts from the Turnpike Commission are switching their insurance to the Fedeli Group Insurance Company.
Fedeli is the sole owner. S.E. Johnson Companies has received $55.4 million worth of turnpike contracts since January 1995, and has wisely switched their insurance to Fedeli. Can you say quid pro quo? Fedeli is refusing to say who else holds turnpike contracts and buys insurance from him. Just another bad unethical appointment by the governor? No! It's how the brothers Voinovich (Paul and George) routinely do business in Ohio.
And "Landfill" Lashutka has followed the governor's lead. Tens of thousands of dollars of illegal and questionable contributions pour into the campaigns of Lashutka and Cindy Lazarus. Then Columbus Service Director Herb Mack signs an illegal $250,000 contract with Mid-American Waste Removal, the source of the illegal funds. Mack resigns. But in June, Lashutka appoints Mack to the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC). Say you're Les Wexner and want your own New Albany interchange for say, $300 million. Guess which is the first body you'd visit to get them on board? Mack's the mayor's man. He knows how the game is played.
The coverage of Ron Poole's soliciting-a-prostitute incident also speaks volumes about central Ohio politics. It's the mayor's guy-not Judge Deborah O'Neill. Contrast the Poole coverage to the Dispatch's blatant attempt to use hearsay and gossip to run O'Neill out of local politics. Better yet, ask yourself why, when the name of Judge Steve Hayes-Woody's boy-appeared on the client list of an exclusive Columbus call girl ring, and he was caught on video pulling into the bordello, was there no call for a hearing on judicial misconduct.
Having been on the campaign trail with O'Neill in 1992, her great sin is obvious. She met with the late J.F. Wolfe, who wanted her to take a dive in the race against former Dispatch reporter Judge David Cain. When she refused to drop out of the race and kicked Cain's candied behind, her troubles began with the Wolfe Family Newsletter.
The Wolfes immediately had Cain reappointed to an open seat and he never missed a day on the bench. And he brazenly clung to the perks of seniority-check his parking space-despite technically being the newest judge at the time of his appointment. Cain led the charge against O'Neill when she was recently accused of judicial misconduct. There is no level of cover-up and deception the Big D won't stoop to in protecting their good ol' boys.
Meanwhile, the ever-pious governor continues to push his blatantly unconstitutional school voucher program. The Voino-voucher plan, dearly beloved by the Dispatch, includes religious schools, in violation of the First Amendment: "Congress shall make no laws establishing religion…." The ruling by Franklin County Judge Lisa Sadler, a former Voinovich executive assistant, would be laughable if it wasn't so ludicrous and pernicious. Remember, Machiavelli advised the Prince not to take religion seriously, but to be the first one out on high Holy Days to worship.
But hey, the Guv is Carmen Parise's and Umberto Fedeli's "shepherd … they shall not want." Alas, let me leave you with the words of the governor's "very, very good friend" Parise from a taped threat to Teamster driver Jerry Lee Jones. "The day after this [Teamster] fucking election, you motherfucker, nobody is going to bust your fucking head but me, from here down to your prick.. . . . Every time you turn around, I'll have someone give you a fucking beating. You understand me?" Jones was later assaulted by a co-worker. I understand Parise…and why Voinovich dropped out of the Veep stakes.

Unnamed (near Deer Bay)
Prospect, Undetermined
Ag; Au; Pb
This prospect is near the point south of the mouth of Deer Bay. It is near the northeast corner of section 1, T. 77 S., R. 84 E.
There is an old adit less than 20 feet long at this prospect but there is no record of who did the work or when it was done, nor is there any record of production (Herreid and others, 1978; Maas and others, 1991, 1995). The rocks in the area consist of quartz-sericite-chlorite schists, pyroclastic breccia, and metabasite. Locally there are quartz veins parallel to the layering. Herreid and others (1978) collected a sample of pyrite-quartz-sericite schist that contained 20 parts per million (ppm) gold and 90 ppm lead. A table in their report also lists niobium, but they do not give a value for it in their description of the sample nor are significant amounts of niobium likely in this geologic environment. Maas and others (1991) collected 8 samples; their highest value was 210 parts per billion gold and 1.6 ppm silver.
Insufficient evidence to determine.
Explored by an old adit less than 20 feet long; sampled by several government agencies.
This prospect is on land that has been conveyed to the Sealaska Corporation, who hold the surface and subsurface rights, or the land is under application for transfer to them.

Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions: support for 100,000 excellent researchers
By Rebecca Wright
Posted: 7 March, 2017
Commissioner for Education, Culture, Youth and Sport, Tibor Navracsics, said: "On the eve of International Women's Day, I am especially proud that the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions pay particular attention to gender balance, with more than 40% of fellowships awarded to female scientists."
Today the European Union is celebrating the one hundred thousandth fellow benefiting from the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions. To mark this milestone in the history of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, 30 highly promising researchers have been selected to showcase the EU's actions dedicated to excellence and worldwide mobility in research. Since the launch of the programme 20 years ago, the share of female participants has been exceptionally high and 18 of the selected researchers are women.
Tibor Navracsics, Commissioner for Education, Culture, Youth and Sport, said: "Celebrating the award of the 100 000th Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship is a great moment to recall the importance of this programme, which supports our brightest and best researchers in tackling the big societal challenges facing Europe. Marie Skłodowska-Curie paved the way for future generations of female researchers. On the eve of International Women's Day, I am especially proud that the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions pay particular attention to gender balance, and with more than 40% of fellowships awarded to female scientists, are the best performing part of Horizon 2020 with respect to gender."
The 30 chosen researchers represent the 100 000 fellows who have been supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions over the past two decades. The group includes 28 European nationals, one from each EU Member State, one from Colombia and one from New Zealand. Their research topics cover a wide spectrum, ranging from tackling climate change and ground breaking research on fighting cancer to the prevention of violent radicalisation. The 30 researchers have outstanding potential: they achieved the highest evaluation scores in the 2016 call for proposals for individual fellowships. They competed with 8916 proposals submitted by other researchers; of which nearly 1200 proposals were selected for funding.
By enabling researchers to go abroad and supporting cooperation between institutions and industry, the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions play a vital part in strengthening Europe's research and innovation capacity. For every single beneficiary, the EU grant is a crucial boost for their career and the chance to improve citizens' lives by advancing knowledge and innovation.
The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, named after the double Nobel Prizewinning Polish-French scientist famed for her work on radioactivity, support excellent researchers at all stages of their careers, irrespective of nationality. The programme is open to all domains of research and innovation, from fundamental research to market take-up and innovation services. Research and innovation fields are chosen freely by the applicants (individuals and/or organisations).
The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions aim to equip researchers with the necessary skills and international experience for a successful career, either in the public or the private sector. The actions are a key part of Horizon 2020, the EU's research and innovation programme. During the current financing period (2014 – 2020), with a budget of EUR 6.2 billion, the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions are expected to support around 65,000 researchers.
The 2017 call for proposals for Individual Fellowships, with a budget of almost EUR 249 million, will be published next month. The submission forms and documentation will be available on the Horizon 2020 Participants' Portal
MSCA Factsheet


type Describes the target of a cross-reference and may generate cross-reference text based on that description. Only the <xref> element can link to content below the topic level: other types of linking can target whole topics, but not parts of topics. Typically <xref> should also be limited to topic-level targets, unless the output is primarily print-oriented. Web-based referencing works best at the level of whole topics, rather than anchor locations within topics.
When targetting DITA content, the type should match one of the values in the target's class attribute. For example, if type="topic", the link could be to a generic topic, or any specialization of topic, including concept, task, and reference.
Defaults to generic topic, or the processor may retrieve the actual type from the target if available.
role The role attribute defines the role the target topic plays in relationship with the current topic. For example, in a parent/child relationship, the role would be "parent" when the target is the parent of the current topic, and "child" when the target is the child of the current topic. This structure could be used to sort and classify links at display time.


The minimum out epochs determines the minimum number of epochs the output connections must be trained after adding a new candidate neuron.

Maintaining inequality despite expansion: Evidence of the link between parents' education and qualitative differences in educational attainment
Jenny CHESTERS
The restructuring of the Australian labour market decreased demand for low-skilled workers and increased demand for highly skilled workers and professionals further strengthening the relationship between educational and occupational attainment. To satisfy the demand for highly educated workers, the government reorganised the higher education sector increasing the number of universities and trebling the number of places for domestic undergraduate students. Analysing data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia survey, this paper examines the association between parents' education and the likelihood of graduating from university for six birth cohorts of Australians. Overall, the findings suggest that although the expansion of the higher education sector in Australia provided alternative pathways into university, differences in educational attainment, on both quantitative and qualitative dimensions, persist.
