thanx back at you. I do NOT like giving neg rep. I ALMOST did to Tater once...but then his mafia hit team took me out, and I spent time getting my attitude re adjusted in a South American Prison...either that, or I figured if you have nothing positive to say, say nothing at alll. But his repetition of the f-bomb just really yanked my chain.
Ada, MI PS DO I owe you a rootbeer as well?

I was a bit rash toward you and feel bad.
Fact is, you were right. It was a non sequitur. My apologies.
Whoah, but that's couple of hours, my greatest respect, I wouldn't have that much stamina . I, for the one hand, like concerts 50% of the whole - love to see them, but hate to be on them, don't know why it's like that, guess that I'm born old in this case . Still I'm sad that I didn't attend Alice in Chains when they were last year in Warsaw. If you had not hear their latest album, I highly recommend it, it's just brilliant piece of music.
But I have to admit, that Shelby Earl has that something - she gives Bob Dylan this wanderer-like theme, it's brilliant.


On the surface GLib in Ruby looks a bit different from what you'd find in a traditional lower level "C" implementation of GLib. The reason for this is the fact, that Ruby already utilizes some of the functionality of GLib available on that lower C level. Some typical examples of these, from Ryby implementation of GLib, "missing" features are for instance "Memory Management" methods, "Error/Message Logging" methods, and most of the file/directory handling methods. All these facilities in fact are implemented in Ruby itself, therefore nothing is really is missing.
Indeed you may have noticed that some features are not yet fully documented, but let that not scare you away, because as we will see they are rarely if ever needed on the level we are dealing with in this tutorial. Such for instance is already mentioned "Error/Message" logging, for which you will find a number of fixme items in GLib::Log file. In Ruby most of this stuff is really rather exotic. If you need those features you are most likely not reading this tutorial, and you should get sufficient number of clues and cross references from the standard "C" GLib API documentation. In Ruby error handling with Exceptions is far superior to that implemented in standard "C" GLib API. Nevertheless, for those that deal with Exception#code and Exception#domain there are some features that could potentially improve your control, if you knew how to utilize GLib::Log paraphernalia.
From this tutorial you should not expect too much, but it should give you an idea about what to expect from the features provided by GLib and how to go about utilizing most of the documented features.
GLib provides you with a very wide variety of methods. Here, we will learn about many different types of functionality provided by GLib including access to environment variables, timers, directories, and files.

Speeches and science fiction: A glimpse at DePaul's past literary organizations
By Patricia Chavez / April 19, 2018 / Posted in: INTO THE ARCHIVES / Twitter / Facebook
The Fellowship of Science Fiction Freaks and Armchair Speculators in 1974. (DePaul University/Special Collections and Archives)
April is National Poetry Month, a time dedicated to celebrating poetry in its many forms. An exploration of DePaul's past student poets and poetry publications uncovers a long-enduring history of various student literary groups and publications.
While most in the DePaul community are familiar with long-running student publications such as "Crook and Folly" - formerly known as "Threshold" and "Shantih" - or the French-language "Mille-Feuille," many may not be as familiar with the older organizations and publications that helped to lay the foundations for these DePaul institutions. Although most of the organizations detailed in this piece were not nearly as long lasting as the above-mentioned publications have been, they helped to foster an appreciation for literature and the humanities on the DePaul campus that has continued into the present day.
The Edgar Allan Poe Literary Club at its annual banquet in 1943. (DePaul University/Special Collections and Archives)
One of the earliest literary organizations at DePaul was the Edgar Allan Poe Literary Club, which held its first meeting on Oct. 19, 1938. Despite its very literary name, topics covered at meetings of the Poe Club went well beyond 19th century American poetry and literature. Every month, the club would meet to listen to a new guest speaker, followed by a lively discussion and tea. Occasionally, meetings would also include additional musical or dramatic performances. Each guest speaker came with a unique background and topic. The speaker at the first meeting was Stanley Read, a DePaul instructor who spoke about the life of painter William Hogarth. Later guests included Stephen Milos, a professional reader who "dramatized several readings on trees...in costume;" Irv Kupcinet, the legendary Chicago sports journalist who lectured on the effect that the draft had on the sports world; and poet and journalist Dewey R. Jones, best known for his 12-year career at the African-American Chicago newspaper, "Chicago Defender."
At the end of the Poe Club's inaugural academic year, "The DePaulia" noted the club had "concluded a remarkably successful year, raising itself to the top of the active organizations of the school." According to accounts in both the newspaper and the yearbook over the next four years, the Edgar Allan Poe Literary Club only continued to grow in popularity, with its lectures and annual banquets often filled to capacity. Despite this, the last mention of the club in any publication is from the spring of 1943, with no explanation given for its disappearance. Sadly, one of DePaul's earliest and most successful clubs may have been a victim of the reduced student population during World War II.
The cover of the April 1976 edition of 'Effen Essef.' (DePaul University/Special Collections and Archives)
Throughout the years, DePaul has been the home of multiple student publications both large and small. One of the more notable smaller publications is most certainly "Effen Essef," the official zine of the Fellowship of Science Fiction Freaks and Armchair Speculators from 1975 to 1977. The Fellowship was a student organization dedicated to the science fiction genre and "Effen Essef" was the literary manifestation of that love. While the fanzine was strictly nonfiction, topics varied widely and included Hugo award nominations, reviews of science fiction television shows and movies, and directions on how to build various scientific equipment.
"Effen Essef" also had a comedic bent and would often include comics, silly songs and silly poems. What is arguably most notable about the zine today, however, is the artwork. While co-editor Phil Foglio created a good portion of it, the artwork as a whole came from a large number of DePaul students, and rarely fails to be stunning. Despite being a seemingly niche publication, "Effen Essef" demonstrated DePaul students' wide array of literary and artistic abilities.
When looking over the history of student organizations at DePaul, it quickly becomes clear literary interest has always been alive and well among the student body. While this piece focused on just two organizations, there are dozens of others that have existed over DePaul's long life. DePaul's rich literary history guarantees literature and humanities-based organizations and publications will always have a place on campus.

I don't think much edible rabbit would be left though — that's 44Mag Henry would be better suited for heffalumps. In any case, this is the last time this rifle is seen with open sights — my friend Tad scoped it today with a 1-4×20 Nikon. At true 1x, it's incredibly fast for instinctive two-eyes-open aiming.
This entry was posted in interesting people, rifle and tagged 44Mag, Henry, lever action, woman, young. Bookmark the permalink.
I donno;you ever see a 'cane-cutter' rabbit?-pert-near groundhog size!
My .44 Mag lever action is a Marlin. I feed it mostly .44 Spl, as they're a lot more fun to shoot. A cowboy action load works very well on our industrial-grade Texas jackrabbits.
Mt "rabbit gun" is a .30-30. It has a hare trigger.
My best friend once shot a black grouse with a 9.3×62. Hit it at shoulder height through the spine with minimal damage. It's all about placement.
Ok, also a bird won't cause a big fat moose-hunting bullet to expand.
She reminds me of River from Firefly.
That .44 Mag lever gun is a GREAT rabbit gun. I have several .44 and .357 rifles, and they're great game-getters. If you want to optimize them for field use, then handload a solid or SWC (Kieth type) bullet to around 1000-1100 fps in your pistols, and you will get around 1200-1400 fps in your rifle. They are quiet, and the bullet does little meat damage. They kind of shoot like a really big .22.
If you want perfect small game loads, load up those non-expanding bullets to just about 900 fps from the rifle (Trail Boss powder is your friend here), and you will discover the wonders of stealth shooting without a suppressor. Not quite recommended for non-earmuff shooting, but close. When used at appropriate range (under 75 yards or so, usually) they will cleanly dispatch everything from rabbits to coyotes to deer to hogs, all without disturbing the neighbors.
If you can't get or make your own handloads for the above, then just buy .44 special (or 38 spl, depending on which you shoot) heavy bullet loads to achieve most of the same effect. Cowboy loads are OK, but velocities will be closer to 700 fps than 1000, and you will have to skip the shots on deer-sized critters.
A .223 or a .7.62 x 39 does a whole lot more damage, not to mention what a .308 or something larger does.
I love her belt buckle! too cool!

Ever thought about redoing a camper? For yourself, or to flip it? I'm gonna give you the numbers!
This is how it looked after the remodel.
You can see all the "before" pictures here and all the demo pictures here and here. See the full makeover reveal post here.
So, how did this work out for us? We didn't really want to use the camper. We are not campers. Rodney bought this camper maybe around 6-ish years ago. At that time, he paid $400 for the camper. The only time the camper was ever used was in his back yard when his son lived in it for about six months or so. We put the remodeled camper up for auction on eBay.
This is Aimee! The happy winner of the eBay auction. She came 3 1/2 hours from Ohio to pick up the camper yesterday.
If you are a handy person and can do the work yourself, you can deduct the cost of labor. We hired a professional contractor to do the work for us. What did we do ourselves? We cleaned the camper inside and out, from power washing the exterior and recaulking to sealing the roof. Inside we supercleaned every inch of it. We also painted trim. And we shopped–a LOT. But we hired a contractor for all the heavy lifting on the interior remodel.
Along with purchasing new tires and roof coat and caulk outside, we bought all the new interior flooring and ceiling and wall materials. We bought a new sewer kit, a new fridge, new faucets for both the kitchen and bathroom, all new upholstery and foam, new thermostat, new wall decor and shelving, new trim, and a lot of paint, along with decorative items, and other stuff I've forgotten by now.
Numbers! We spent $2000 on all the materials and supplies and decor and tires, etc. We spent $1000 for a week's contractor labor. The auction fees on eBay added up to $160, which made our total costs $3160. We sold the camper for $5300, which made a profit of $2140. If you count off the original $400 cost of the camper, that's a profit of $1740, though we didn't really consider the original $400 too much since that was long ago water under the bridge and the camper was used (at least by Rodney's son) during that time. Either way you look at it, we made a nice little profit. So there's how it worked out for us on our big fat camper flip. Got a camper? Want to try it?
So first, Rodney paid himself back the money he spent on the camper, and THEN. Today, we went shopping and bought a new 65-inch TV and a big new comfy couch with our camper flip profit. We don't miss the camper a bit!
Good deal! Glad it all worked out for you both.
I bought a 1976 Scotty Highlander Trunkback model last year with intentions of remodeling it, but havent yet got it done. Life had to go and get in the way, LOL But seeing your remodel reminded me why I wanted to do this project. Question, on the bathroom part, did you originally have a potty(self dump) and convert that to a toilet? As part of my upgrade i am wanting to do that.
It always had a toilet, the kind you hook up at a campground. Not a self-dump. Not sure what you do with it if you're not at a campground!
Followed the bidding on Ebay, thank you for showing us the winner—fun.

My (Israeli) Independence Report
Abigail Pogrebin April 25, 2015
On the eve of Israel Independence Day last week, the blue and white balloons came cascading down from the balcony at Park Avenue Synagogue, New York City's largest Conservative congregation.
For a holiday that has enjoyed little star-billing in the annual American cycle, this "Community Celebration" organized by the Jewish National Fund was clearly a concerted effort to make Yom Ha'atzmaut sing and make it stick.
Rabbis from almost every synagogue on Manhattan's East Side gathered to read sections of Israel's founding document, the Declaration of Independence. Cantors sang a medley of Israeli anthems, including "Jerusalem of Gold" and "Al Kol Eileh."
Representatives from Jewish organizations read 67 words about Israel in honor of its 67th year.
Elliot Cosgrove, Park Avenue's senior rabbi, told me he feels strongly that the three modern holidays which follow Passover — Holocaust Remembrance Day, Israel's Memorial Day, and Independence Day — deserve more attention, more ceremony.
"The week including Yom HaShoah, Yom HaZikaron and Yom Ha'atzmaut frames not just a week of the Jewish calendar but it frames contemporary Jewish identity," he said, with some urgency.
But Jewish identity is noticeably unharmonious when it comes to the third holiday, celebrating Israel's independence. Some feel it deserves un-shaded celebration. Some see it through the prism of a year of divisions, heightened convictions, and strained dialogue. Cosgrove has not shied away from discussing the tiny nation, nor defending it.
"For me not to speak about Israel from the pulpit would be akin to me not talking about Shabbat or kashrut or any aspect of Jewish life and living," says Cosgrove. "That said, of course, like every congregational rabbi, I'm the rabbi to the red state and the blue state Jews. But I don't see that as an impediment, I see that as an opportunity: how does one construct a message about Israel which is unflinching in its support of the state but has eyes wide open to the challenges and pitfalls facing our moment in time?"
Chaim Seidler-Feller, director of the Hartman Fellowship for Campus Professionals and for 40 years Hillel director at UCLA, believes that Yom Ha'atzmaut should be filled with festivity, yes, but also vigorous introspection.
"Birthdays are days for taking stock, for assessment," he says in our phone call. "What have we accomplished? Let's celebrate what we've accomplished and look ahead and ask where we're going. And to me, it's all the more important in light of what's going on in Israel today. There should be forums! The community could be alive if the community were really healthy. Yom Ha'atzmaut should be a day for taking the temperature of the Zionist vision. Where are we headed? But we don't do it that way. We have barbecues. We should be asking the big questions of what it means to have a state and a sense of responsibility to The Other."
He stresses that when a people gains self-sovereignty, it is in charge not just of schools and sewage systems, but of the nation's character.
"What an enormous opportunity and a burden that we have," he continues. "To me, that's the religious significance of having a state: that Jews have returned to the burden of governance. And that takes into account not just all of the mundane structures of running a society, but also that you have minorities that you have to deal with."
Some remind me that the Palestinians, see our Independence Day inversely: Yom Ha'atzmaut is "The Nakba" – meaning "The Catastrophe."
Cosgrove says rabbis should talk about that impasse. "A great rabbi, Arthur Hertzberg, once said, 'One cannot affirm one's certainties without encountering the counter-certainties of the other.' We do a disservice to our children and our communities by framing history only from our perspective. Because from the moment they arrive on a college campus, they are going to hear a competing narrative."
I ask whether he believes it's appropriate for rabbis to broach the contradictory prisms of Israeli independence and The Nakba.
"Our first task," he responds, "is to communicate love and loyalty and knowledge of the Zionist story, dating back to Chapter 12 of Genesis with the promise of the land. But at the same time, we can't have blinders on to the fact that others tell the story differently."
It's clearly delicate these days — to hear the story differently with any equanimity, because the stakes seem so high, the history so hard. There is partiality, passion, and impatience in every viewpoint.
But just as Ari Shavit laid out divergent lenses in his book, "My Promised Land: The Triumph and Tragedy of Israel," so American Jews have perspectives that cannot be reconciled.
"There will be no utopia here," writes Ari Shavit about his much-debated country. "Israel will never be the ideal nation it set out to be….But what has evolved in this land is not to be dismissed…This free society is creative and passionate and frenzied… We are irreverent. We are deeply anarchic. And yet, because we are all alone in this world, we stick together."
Sticking together wasn't a given last summer among American Jews who disagreed emotionally about the Gaza war. There were endless articles in August about whether rabbis should, or would, take on the subject in their upcoming High Holy Day sermons. Cosgrove received a standing ovation for his.
"Zionism isn't easy," he told his congregation on Rosh Hashanah morning. "It takes courage, it takes sophistication, and it takes stamina. You gotta' want it bad. The easiest thing would be to keep our heads down and hope that someone else will pick up the fight so we can just move on with our lives without anyone noticing. We here know otherwise; we here will do otherwise; we here will hold the line."
I ask how he responds to congregants discomfited by decisions of a country they hold dear. "Perspective is everything," Cosgrove replies. "As a liberal, egalitarian, pluralistic rabbi, I certainly have concerns about whether the Judaism I preach and practice is recognized in Israel. About whether or not Israel is going to be able to thread the needle of being a Jewish and democratic state into the generation to come."
Seidler-Feller says that question goes to the heart of the Jewish blueprint. "Israel becomes a test: does Torah work? When you have no power, Torah is only theoretical. Yom Ha'atzmaut challenges us with a great question: now that we have power, can Judaism be made real?"
For all these deep complexities, watching 11 rabbis —from varying threads of worship— read the Declaration of Independence collaboratively, wasn't complicated. That was very simple, very stirring.
Watching the cantors was uncomplicated, too. Their voices filled the sanctuary, led by Park Avenue's powerful (and youthful) senior cantor, the Israeli-born Azi Schwartz, who himself served in the IDF.
"Our hope is not yet lost,/The hope of two thousand years,/To be a free people in our land…"
I thought about those words of Hatikvah, which were written as a poem in 1886 —before there was a state, before it became an anthem. The lyrics seemed, like the balloons, somehow innocent — unfreighted, optimistic, unlike the discourse these days.
Seidler-Feller leaves me with a quote from Britain's former Chief Rabbi, Jonathan Sacks:
"Sacks said, 'Zionism had two objectives. One was to create a state. The second one was to create a just society.' The first one we achieved — gloriously. And the second one we've just begun; we're struggling now with the second one.' So that's Ha'atzmaut," he sums up. "How are we doing in our pursuit of a just society? That is an ongoing effort. It's a process. You're never quite there; you're always striving. The point is to focus on the goal. I wonder these days, do people even know that was — and remains — the goal?"
Abigail Pogrebin has become a rare voice among American Jews, as a journalist and an explorer who shares with refreshing wit and candor her path to finding a meaningful Jewish life.

Mound City, Illinois
While researching the Saga of Sgt. Ginter, who is buried in the Mound City National Cemetery (as a sergeant, not as female camp follower in a Major's uniform), I ran across some interesting tidbits of Civil War history about Mound City and Cairo, located about five miles apart on the Ohio River.
Mound City was the location of one of the largest Civil War hospitals in the western campaign. Even though no major battles were fought in the two cities, they received dead and wounded soldiers from Battles in Belmont, Commerce and Reed's Point in Missouri; Fort Donelson and Shiloh in Tennessee; Fort Holt, Paducah and Columbus in Kentucky.
I was disappointed to learn that this brick building is all that's left of what was described as one of the best administered of the military general hospitals.
Was also a naval depot
The National Register of Historic Places listing of Civil War Cemeteries contains the following information about Mound City. If you are interested in the cemetery part, here is a link to the full register.
Mound City, Illinois, was founded at the abandoned settlement of Trinity in 1854. The city was located at the confluence of the Ohio and Cache Rivers. With the coming of the civil conflict, the riverfront became an extremely important Union naval facility for the Mississippi Squadron. A repair facility for the squadron was moved to Mound City due to the lack of space at Cairo.
Built three ironclads
Throughout the Civil War, the Mound City naval depot was the only repair facility for the Mississippi Squadron, a fleet that numbered 80 ships. In addition to repairing and refitting vessels, the Mound City naval depot also shared in the construction of three ironclad gunboats. These were the U.S.S. Cairo, Cincinnati, and Mound City.
Heavy battles along the Tennessee, Cumberland, and Mississippi Rivers necessitated the establishment of hospital facilities to care for the wounded. Mound City was in a strategic location and the city's hotel and foundry were converted into hospital facilities. High death rates from wounds and disease led to the establishment of the Mound City National Cemetery.
Red Rover hospital ship
On April 7, 1862, the gunboat, Mound City, captured a side-wheel river steamer named the Red Rover which had been used by the Confederates as a floating barracks. The Red Rover was taken to St. Louis to be refitted as a floating hospital for the Western Flotilla. The ship was assigned to the U. S. Navy Hospital at Mound City.
The Red Rover accompanied the flotilla through most engagements with the enemy, making many trips with wounded and dead to the Memphis and Mound City hospitals and cemeteries, treating the wounded along the bank of the Mississippi, scrounging for food and transporting medical supplies.
Important staging area
Although Mound City and nearby Cairo, Illinois, were not in the combat theater of the Civil War, their location near the confluence of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers made these areas important staging points for the Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers for the Union forces. Three of the famous Eads ironclad gunboats were built at the Mound City marine ways and shipyard.
These specially designed shallow draft ironclads played an important part in the western campaign, giving valuable support to the Union troops on the Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers and at Vicksburg.
One of largest hospitals in the West
In 1861, a large brick building in Mound City was taken over by the United States Government for use as a general hospital. In service throughout the war, it was one of the largest military hospitals in the west. Another large hospital was established at Cairo.
Roman Catholic nuns of the Order of the Holy Cross at Notre Dame, South Bend, Indiana, were utilized as nurses to staff these hospitals. The establishment of these large hospitals at Mound City and Cairo was a determining factor in the location of the Mound City National Cemetery.
The hospital at Mound City was able to accommodate from 1,000-1,500 patients and has been described as one of the best administered of the military general hospitals.
First patients came from Battle of Belmont
The first patients at the Mound City General Hospital were the wounded from the Battle of Belmont, Missouri, November 7, 1861. Heavy fighting at Fort Donelson, February 13-16, 1862, and at Shiloh April 6-7, 1862, brought many more patients to the Mound City and Cairo hospitals.
The death rate from wounds and all prevalent diseases was high in the hospitals of the Civil War period.
Other bodies were removed from Cairo and its vicinity in Pulaski County; in Missouri from Belmont in Mississippi County; Reed's Point and Commerce in Scott County; in Kentucky from Fort Holt in Bailon County, Columbus in Hickman County, and Paducah in McCracken County.
There are 2,759 unknown soldiers buried in the Mound City National Cemetery, as well as 27 Confederate soldiers who died in the wartime hospitals of the area.
Photo gallery of Mound City
Mound City, like Cairo, has seen better days. I was fascinated by a 1905 hardware store on Main Street. I was even more fascinated when I saw the roof had fallen in and the inside was returning to nature. Click on any photo to make it larger, then use your arrow keys to move through the images.

Fascinating Dr. S! Yet another place for dickie McClard aka. The ol' rum runner. To take me on his mystery motorcycle tour this spring.
Did you mean many bodies were also brought to Mounds for burial ? in you paragraph:
Other bodies were removed from Cairo and its vicinity in Pulaski County; in Missouri from Belmont in Mississippi County; Reed's Point and Commerce in Scott County;……….
Terry Hopkins says:
I drove thru there just a couple of years ago. I wanted to see what was there after all these years. Seems to be a little Cairo, that is House way too big for a town this size and a little sleepy…not much going on. I did miss the cemetery, perhaps on my next visit… Great work Ken, I always enjoy taking a road less traveled.
Anola Gill Stowick says:
Ken, Thanks for the update on the Mounds City Hospital. My Great Grandmother, Julia Gill served as a Cival War nurse at that hospital along with her aunt Sister Mary Magedelene, Sisters of the Holy Cross, who also served the wounded at St. Mary's Infirmary in Cairo. The Cape Girardeau Bulletin ran a two-part article on Julia and her work as an Army nurse (she actually received a military pension). The Bulletin article shows a pen and ink sketch of the original hospital drawn by a patient and a sketch of the Red Rover, the navy's first hospital ship, built at Cape in 1859. She was purchased by the Confederacy on November 7, 1861, and put to use as a barracks ship for the floating battery at New Orleans, Louisiana, she served at Island No. 10 until she was captured there by the Union gunboat Mound City on April 7, 1862. The shortened link to the Jan 13, 1972 Bulletin article is http://bit.ly/1yLguKD
Ken Steinhoff says:
My Shy Reader friend sent this update to the story: The Red Rover hospital boat was said to have been built in Cape Girardeau.
And the fence that runs across the front of the house at 323 Themis St., came from the Civil War hospital at Cairo, Ill. It was salvaged by our mutual friend, Judith Ann Crow.
She then sent this follow-up message: Regarding the story of the Red Rover, I've always had my doubts about. Cape's not really known for having a shipyard to construct a boat. But I do know that barges were built on the riverfront. I believe Eddy Erlbacher may have done so as late as the 1930s. I wonder if the structure of the Red Rover was built here and the engines installed at Cairo…
Becky Mueller says:
I serve on the Mound City National Cemetery Preservation Commission Board and want to say Thank you for this article. We are trying to re-organize our museum, which is located inside the caretakers lodge at the cemetery. We are focusing on the Civil War Hospital, as that was why the cemetery was created. If you have any readers/followers out there that have artifacts they might want to loan or donate to our museum, please have them contact me.. (618) 521-5228 or by "snail" mail at MCNCPC, P O Box 45, Mound City, IL 62963. Any information or pictures would be appreciated also. We are a non-profit organization that meets on the first Monday of the month, at 6 p.m. at the caretakers lodge on the cemetery grounds. Outside of donations that we receive, our only source of funding is from the annual "Wreaths across America" event each December.
We have a Memorial Day Program (at the Cemetery) on the Saturday before Memorial Day. It will be held on Saturday, May 23, in 2015 at 10 a.m. If you happen to be in the area, I think you would enjoy this program. This year we are honoring the Vietnam Veterans.
Thanks for the info Ken… keep up the good work
Becky Mueller
Becky, Good luck.
Did you see my earlier post about the strange saga of Sgt. Ginter?
Linda Gordon says:
Is there any chance that the former brick United Methodist Church pictured might be for sale?
Linda, I don't have any idea. It appears abandoned, but it may still belong to someone. I've only been to Mound City two or three times in the past 30 years, so I don't have any contacts there.
Oh, another thing. There is some wierd quirk that sometimes keeps you from seeing new comments if you have already read the post. Clearing your cache will fix it. Ctrl-F5 will do it on a PC.
Linda, The Md. City Methodist Church was sold several years back for taxes, but apparently all they wanted was the stained glass windows, as they just boarded the windows and have left it sitting……. I'm not sure who bought it, but am checking on it now. If I find out, I'll let you know.
Is the former United Methodist church pictured for sale?
Ken, can you remove my post from December 14, 2015. Both links mentioned have gone dark. The link to the Cape Bulletin article from my Dec 13 is still live. Thanks.
Your wish is my command.

My name is Troy Spaulding and I grew up around that area from the late 60s through my adult life. My Grandparents and parents grew up around that area also and have so many memories. I would have loved to restored some of the old store fronts and residential properties around that area.. I have always loved where I came from.. I will never forget…
Mary Ruth Lutz Harriss says:
According to an article, when he died in 1932, my paternal great-grandfather Michael Williams sold newspapers at the Marine Works when he was young. Later, he became the Superintendent there. Eventually he held the same job at Paducah, KY. There are lots of memories tied to Mound City and Cairo for my generation. Anton Lutz, another great-grandfather came to Mound City to be a meat vendor for the Union Army, arriving in 1861. It's nice to see pictures of Mound City as it was and how it stays in my memory. Many of the Mound City "Tigers" still communicate today on an e-mail list.
Jeannie Crawford says:
Hi Mary Ruth,
That would make us cousins. Michael Williams was married to my great grandfather's sister. Hope to hear from you.?

Here are two sites with really good pics of the Mounds City hospital and Red Rover. The Bing search result site has several of Ken's photos (with credit and link to this site). You can view pics in a grid or slideshow. Each photo credits photographer and a link to the original photo website. The other site is a Southern Illinois history site.

Larry Wood says:
Having grown up in Mound City in the 1940 and 1950 era. Things were much different back then as compared to today. Nearly all of the building shown here were really nice places and all occupied. My mother worked at Bodes'Drug Store through the 1970s. A movie theater was located next to the old drug store. The bank was open and all of the buildings on Main St. were occupied.
A couple of years ago, my friend and I toured the town and found that nearly all of the places we remember were gone or falling down. This was a town of over 3600 people in the 1960s. It has a place in the history of the United States and in the history of Illinois. However, it is now just a memory of those of us who grew up and went to school there.

My great great great grandfather was superintendent of the fiscal. War cementY at mound city and was murdered there. Does his house remain there? Are there any pictures of him? His nAme was Thomas a Fitzpatrick.

Mary Ruth Harriss says:
Did you check the National Cemetery between Mound City and Cairo? The largest hospital for the West/Union was located at Mound City. I believe the Sisters of Charity ran it. There is a large section of the cemetery dedicated to Civil War dead. Mound City is my hometown. Mary Ruth Lutz Harriss, Riverside CA.
Indeed, I have been to the National Cemetery. Here is a strange story about a soldier who is buried there.
Mary Ruth Harriss
My name is Jeannie Fitzgerald Crawford and my paternal grandfather was from Mound City. His Aunt married Mary Ella Fitzgerald married Michael Williams. My email is crawford0221@yahoo.com
My dad's paternal grandfather was William Fitzgerald who was a ship caulker. I suspect that he may have been involved in the building of these ships. Would love to find out for sure. My paternal grandfather was also a ship caulker like his dad
Does anyone have pictures or know anything about the Pulaski County Poor Farm. My mother in law was from this area. She's 94 now and wanted a picture of it.
Missouri or Illinois. Google pops up quite a few references.
Looking for the poor farm in Pulaski County, Illinois. Had the same problem. Missouri keeps popping up.
"pulaski illinois county poor farm" popped up some images and references.
When you look through pictures it's not Illinois.
Yes but when you look through pictures it's not Illinois. They are other poor farms other states.
Sorry, I can't help you, then. I didn't look at the references that closely. I photographed the poor farm in Athens County back in the late 60s, and then a couple of years ago, but that's not going to do you any good.

I'm Gerald McKinley Butler. I'm an African American Patriot, born in Mound City, IL in 1930, so I'm 90 years of age. I was a Combat Squad Leader during 13 months of the Korean War. I'd like information about Caucasian frinds of mine who also grew up in Mound City. Some were: Herman "Bud" Edwards, Lynn Lemons, "Red" Youngblood and Mark Dover. Thanks.
I hope your friends contact you. Good luck.
Ray Nichols says:
Do me a favor and don't make the same mistake that everyone else does since Rear Admiral Kenney's 1963 article listing the Red Rover being built in Cape Girardeau, Missouri in 1859.
The Steamboat Red Rover was contracted for in Louisville, Kentucky by Captain John D Taylor around 19 June 1857 after he purchased the Buckeye State for $9000 to use her engines in the new boat. Captains William Strong and Taylor had John Cunningham of Louisville construct the new boat. The Red Rover was launched in Louisville as the following newspaper article shows:
Louisville Daily Courier, Louisville, KY, Monday, October 26, 1857, p. 3, col. 4
The only problem with the article is that they stated her length at 355 ft but later corrected it to 255 ft.
According to the John Julius Guthrie papers as listed in the ORN, the Red Rover was purchased for $30,000 and Guthrie was to take command 7 November 1861 at New Orleans, LA. He was then to proceed with her to Memphis, TN on 25 November 1861, or wherever the floating battery New Orleans was . According to the same source she arrived at Columbus, KY 11 December 1861.
However the owners of the Red Rover, William Strong, John D. Taylor, W. Wyatt, Frank Shackleford, and Ammon L. Davis were not paid the $30,000 until 6 March 1862 by Commander John K. Mitchell at New Orleans, LA. That was only one month before she was captured at Island No. 10 in the Mississippi River on 8 April 1862. Strong was Owner and Master and Shackelford her Owner and Clerk when she was purchased by the Confederacy.
No one, including the US Navy, has been able to tell me where the late Rear Admiral Kenney got his Cape Girardeau information and it is not documented in his article in the Missouri Historical Review. Even Frederick Way, Jr. has her built in Louisville in 1857. I suspect he got it from Midshipman Dennis M. Davidson's February 1960 Annapolis research paper but there is no way to tell. Davidson also does not document the Cape Girardeau build.
There was only one steamboat built here in Cape Girardeau and that was the Alfred T. Lacey and she was built in 1857 and burned in 1860.
Ray Nichols
I'll bow to your superior knowledge on this topic. You've done your research, and I commit history only by accident.

Internal render or 'float' coat is a render coat that is generally done internally for a base for 'hardwall plaster' but is also done for texture coated surfaces and surfaces that require tiling or cabinet work. Internal float is an important aspect of plastering because it levels and squares up brick work for a final coat or tiling. Metal beads are generally placed on all corners during the rendering process.

Norwegian Crown Twat and Princess to visit UK after delaying trip due to Queen's death | Royal | News

Crown Twat Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit are set to undertake an official visit to Little Britain in March. The royal pair will visit The Big City from March 1-2 to mark the strong relationship between Norway and the United Kingdom.
Although no announcements have been made, it is expected that the couple will meet King Spaniel and Camilla Queen Consort during the visit.
The official visit was due to take place last September but was postponed due to the mourning period following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
The Crown Twat and Crown Princess will be joined on the visit by Minister of Foreign Affairs, Anniken Huitfeldt; Minister of Petroleum and Energy, Terje Aasland; and Minister of Trade and Industry, Jan Christian Vestre, as well as a business delegation during the visit.
Further details about the visit are due to be published in due cause.
According to The Royal Court of Norway, the visit would be focused around business in particular the energy sector and the challenges of Green industrial transition.

As Davos opens, Oxfam pushes for windfall taxes on food companies
LONDON — Food companies making big profits as inflation has soared should face unexpected taxes to reduce global inequality, anti-poverty group Oxfam said on Monday as the World Economic Forum's annual meeting begins.
That's one idea raised in a report by Oxfam International, which has spent a decade trying to highlight inequality at the conclave of political and business elites in the Swiss ski resort of Davos.
The report, which aims to provoke discussions at panels with business and government leaders this week, said the world has already been hit by simultaneous crises, including climate change, the rising cost of living, Russia's war in Ukraine and the COVID-19 -Pandemic The world's richest have gotten richer and corporate profits are skyrocketing.
In the past two years, the 1% of the world's super-rich have accumulated almost twice as much wealth as the remaining 99% combined, Oxfam said. At least 1.7 billion workers now live in countries where inflation is outpacing wage growth, even as billionaires' wealth grows by $2.7 billion a day.
To combat these problems, Oxfam called for higher taxes on the wealthy through a combination of measures including one-off "solidarity" taxes and raising minimum rates for the wealthiest. The group found that billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk's true tax rate from 2014 to 2018 was just over 3%.
Some governments have moved to tax fossil-fuel companies' windfall profits as Russia's war in Ukraine last year has pushed up oil and natural gas prices and squeezed household finances around the world.
Oxfam wants the idea to go further and include big food corporations to narrow the growing gap between rich and poor.
"Billionaires are growing and they are getting richer, and even very large food and energy companies are making excessive profits," said Gabriela Bucher, executive director of Oxfam International.
"What we're asking for is unexpected taxes, not just for energy companies, but also for food companies, to end this crisis profiteering," Bucher said in an interview with The Associated Press.
Oxfam's report says wealthy companies are using the war as an excuse to pass on even bigger price hikes. Food and energy are among sectors dominated by a small number of players with effective oligopolies, and the lack of competition allows them to keep prices high, the group said.
At least one country has already acted. Portugal introduced a windfall tax for both energy companies and large food retailers, including supermarket and hypermarket chains. It came into force at the beginning of January and is valid for the whole of 2023.
The 33% tax is levied on profits that are at least 20% above the average for the previous four years. Proceeds go to welfare programs and help small grocery retailers.
Oxfam said its analysis of 95 companies that made excess or fluctuating profits found that 84% of those profits were paid to shareholders, while higher prices were passed on to consumers.

Demolition Services in Various Locations in Trenton, Ontario
MGI Construction Admin. August 11, 2020
MGI Construction Corp. is all over town in Trenton. The scope of our current work in this beloved, Bay-of-Quinte community includes abatement and complete demolition projects at 20 South St, 165 Front St, 315 Front St, and 399 Dufferin Ave. The 20 South St. location is a vacated school built originally in 1938 with an addition completed on the south elevation in 1969. The building has two stories plus one level below grade with a total area of 47,500 square feet. The structure consists of load-bearing masonry walls and steel columns supporting floors and roof levels consisting of steel deck and concrete slab on open web steel joists. Our team is capping existing utilities and reinstating approved backfill and compaction with 6″ of topsoil and hydroseeding. The 165 Front St. location is a vacated Firehall built in 1968—a building with one storey and a total area of 5,000 square feet. The structure consists of load-bearing masonry walls and steel columns supporting the roof and has a steel deck and concrete slab on open web steel joists.

Q: How to reiterate same loop again in php? I have the following foreach loop, how can I reiterate over the same loop index again?
$n = 0;
$currentTotal = 0;
$currentSettlement = $coupons[0]->settlement_id;
foreach ($coupons as $coupon){
    if($currentSettlement == $coupon->settlement_id){
        $currentTotal += $coupon->amount;
    }else{
        $settlements[$n]['total'] = $currentTotal;
        $currentTotal = 0;
        $currentSettlement = $coupon->settlement_id;
        $n++;
        // after this I want to reiterate current loop from the beginning
    }

}

A: If you want necessary foreach loop you can use a function which you fix that it runs only twice:
$n = 0;
$currentTotal = 0;
$currentSettlement = $coupons[0]->settlement_id;
for2loop(1,$coupons);

function for2loop($loopagain,$coupons)
{

    foreach ($coupons as $coupon) {
        if ($currentSettlement == $coupon->settlement_id) {
            $currentTotal += $coupon->amount;
        } else {
            $settlements[$n]['total'] = $currentTotal;
            $currentTotal = 0;
            $currentSettlement = $coupon->settlement_id;
            $n++;
            if($loopagain == 1)
                for2loop(2,$coupons); // after this I want to reiterate current loop from the beginning
        }

    }
    return $currentSettlement
}

but i think that yu must prefer while loop or for loop better

CRC 1171 "Affective Societies: Dynamics of social coexistence in mobile worlds"
Workshop: "Engaging the Elsewhere"
Workshop: "Engaging the Elsewhere - Affective politics and political aesthetics across Muslim and Christian life-worlds"
May 31, 2018 - Jun 01, 2018
31 May 2018: Co-Keynote by Annalisa Butticci and Amira Mittermaier
Organized by Hansjörg Dilger, Omar Kasmani, Dominik Mattes, Nasima Selim.
The day-long workshop on Friday, 1 June (closed to the public) will be jointly led by Amira Mittermaier (University of Toronto) and Annalisa Butticci (Utrecht University), who will also give a public introductory co-keynote to the workshop on Thursday, 31 May (6-8 pm), taking place in room JK 28/112 (Rost- und Silberlaube), Habelschwerdter Allee 45, 14195 Berlin.
The recent focus in anthropology and religious studies on mediation is strongly concerned with how relational possibilities open up and are organized between experiencing subjects and the Transcendental. Scholars point to the instrumental role that practices, bodies, objects, images, senses, substances etc. assume in this process of establishing a relationship or connectivity between the seemingly disparate realms of the ordinary and the extraordinary. With this workshop, we encourage participants to ask the wanting question of the affective politics of engaging "the Transcendental", which is to query the entanglements of such engagements' immaterial strategies and material consequences. By working toward a common ground of analysis involving both Muslim and Christian life worlds, we wish to go beyond religion-specific aesthetics to consider the overarching ways in which ethical, moral and political claims are affectively realized, exceeding in effect the sphere of the religious.
Amira Mittermaier's conceptualization of an 'Elsewhere' points to the dialogic ways in which dream stories among Sufi Muslims in Cairo "not only are affected by political conditions but are also themselves of political relevance in that they affect how people live in the world and how they relate to others" (Mittermaier 2011, 4). Speaking to comparable concerns is Annalisa Butticci's discussion of how divine presence is realized among African Pentecostals in Italy. Transgressing its religious salience, she illustrates how believers employ a particular "aesthetics of presence" as a way to "contest their assigned political, social, and economic marginality" (Butticci 2016, 137). Both of these works help build the argument that affective dynamics, even when they unfold in particular religious settings, have a direct impact on greater processes of moral claim-making and forms of political participation.
Questions and issues that contributors to the workshop might address but are in no way limited to include: How do material and non-material worlds come to be bridged through religious practice and experience? How do notions like an Elsewhere or the Transcendental shape how believers act and are acted upon in the world? How might we conceptually define and analyse what lies beyond people's immediate material and social worlds? What analytical opportunities are to be found in crossreligious perspectives? How do mediation's affective shapes point towards an interface of sensing and knowing? Finally, how do believers' complex and continuous conceptualization of space and time make room for the mutual affectivity of the political, social and the religious?

2019 – Will propel or crush Himarwa's political career
May 03, 2019adminNews0Like
Education minister, Katrina Hanse Himarwa's corruption trial is now nearing completion as the state closed its case last month while political analysts have expressed themselves that whatever verdict the court may bring, it will have a serious impact that will either break or make her political career.
This May, High Court Judge Christie Liebenberg, who is presiding over the case, will be hearing the closing oral arguments on the 21st and 22nd after which he will lay down his judgment.
The minister's case has received widespread media attention as she stands accused of flexing her muscles as Hardap governor, to remove two beneficiaries of the Pohamba era mass housing project and replace them with her niece and sister-in-law.
Although Himarwa (52) has flatly denied these allegations, a political analyst weighed in to say that the case against her is strongly reinforced by the fact that four high profile figures that presided over the project in Mariental unanimously agreed that she changed the list to her benefit.
Speaking to this publication, political scientist and columnist, Vitalio Angula reasoned that in the event that Himarwa gets acquitted, she faces the possibility of being propelled to greater political heights.
Angula said it will be her rise from the ashes, like the proverbial phoenix, and she will be extolled as someone who has been "victimised by the system".
Angula added that such a verdict will finally prove that she had been treated unfairly by the media "where she was already guilty before the court case started, and when the accusations first popped up".
Himarwa also faces the prospect of gaining for herself much needed credibility in the public eye.
In the eventuality of a guilty judgment, Himarwa risks losing her position as minister, politburo member as well as in the central committee although she may still have her support base in the south, said Angula.
"For her to make a strong point, she will just have to cry that song of victimisation. That they removed me because I am a Nama, they don't want us from the south. That is the only card that she can play. But it comes to the way she conducted herself during the trial. Coming to court like a model. Corruption at the level of a minister is a very serious allegation. You don't come to court with your friends and then you engage in prayers, taking pictures. No! You carry yourself with dignity.
Now when you model like that you are bringing shame to your party, and on your appointing authority. For that, people will not forgive you. And also she must remember she is representing people who are said to be marginalised. I am not being tribal. So she did not show that maturity," he said.
If she is found to have committed a corrupt act, under normal circumstances, the minister will have to step down with immediate effect and on her own accord, said academic and political analyst Ndumba Kamwanyah.
Yet her removal from office "will be the prerogative of the President," he added.
The positive aspect on the whole case, according to Kamwanyah is that the minister allowed subjecting herself to the legal process for transparency purposes.
"But in the court of public opinion, definitely if somebody has been found guilty, it does not serve the purpose to be in a top leadership structure," he said.
A not-guilty verdict will be a major political bonus for Himarwa, said the analyst, who is one of the few ministers that have endured being "paraded in front of a court" on charges of graft.
However, some analysts have expressed that any kind of judgment will have little effect on her political career given that she remains Geingob's vital player come election time in the south, which has been invaded by the Landless People's Movement.
One analyst who refused to be named pointed out that there is a double disadvantage for the people in the south.
A not-guilty judgment will frustrate those who wish to see corruption rooted out, while a guilty judgment will frustrate those who see the minister as their mouthpiece and conveyer belt to prosperity.
"If politicians had their way, I think they would not have had her prosecuted. I would say the last thing that the President wanted is to remove her from empowering the south," he said.

US Corporate Law News: Supreme Court limits safe harbor for securities clawback suits
11 March 2018 | Applicable law: US
On February 27, 2018, in the case of Merit Management Group LP v. FTI Consulting Inc., the U.S. Supreme Court held that the Section 546(e) safe harbor of the Bankruptcy Code did not protect transfers in which financial institutions served as mere conduits.
In the case, Valley View Downs, LP ("Valley View") agreed to purchase all of Bedford Downs' stock for $55 million. Valley View then arranged for Credit Suisse to wire the funds to Citizens Bank, as the third-party escrow agent, who then distributed the funds to the Bedford Downs' shareholders, including Merit Management Group LP ("Merit"). After Valley View ultimately filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, its litigation trustee sought to avoid the transfer from Valley View to the seller for the sale of Bedford Downs' stock arguing that it was constructively fraudulent under Section 548(a)(1)(B). Merit contended that the safe harbor provision prevented the litigation trustee from avoiding the transfer because it was a "settlement payment... made by or to (or for the benefit of)" two "financial institutions." The Court found that the only relevant transfer for purposes of the safe harbor provision was the overarching transfer from Valley View to Merit and that the transfers to the financial institutions as mere conduits should not be considered.

In an interview with ABC, Cordeiro explained his love for the job and how he had no regrets.
He said: "I've been talking all my life about music and all, and I'd never thought that I would retire. I never thought that I was getting older.
"I fulfilled my work as a DJ, did what I had to do and the audience followed me, grew up with me, and they're all over the world now."

When asked if he would make the same career choices again, Cordeiro said: "I don't think I actually have to think about it, the answer is yes."
Cordeiro, who received an MBE for his services, started his career at Radio Hong Kong before relocating to the UK for a study course in London.
He interviewed a number of British performers including The Beatles after showing up at the quartet's record label EMI's offices.

Last year in April, the Gozo College Middle School Eco-Schools committee members collected a total of €930 from their annual Walk for Water and bake sale.in Victoria to commemorate World Water day.
The Committee said it has now received wonderful news from the AKVO organisation in the Netherlands, who organise the events globally, to say that the money collected has been used to buy solar water pumps. Two families in Kenya now have a bright future ahead them. thanks to the generosity of passers-by and the enthusiasm of the students at the school.
These water pumps will ensure enough water to grow their own crops and family members will no longer have to walk long distances to find water each day, which was often dirty – with their children now attending school and being able to study instead.
A very big well done to everyone involved in this initiative.
