Clay Mineral
For other uses, see Clay (disambiguation).
Clay is a general term including many combinations of one or more clay minerals with traces of metal oxides and organic matter.[1] Geologic clay deposits are mostly composed of phyllosilicate minerals containing variable amounts of water trapped in the mineral structure.
3 Grouping
4 Historical and modern uses
4.1 Medical and agricultural uses
4.2 Clay as a building material
Clay minerals are typically formed over long periods of time by the gradual chemical weathering of rocks, usually silicate-bearing, by low concentrations of carbonic acid and other diluted solvents. These solvents, usually acidic, migrate through the weathering rock after leaching through upper weathered layers. In addition to the weathering process, some clay minerals are formed by hydrothermal activity. Clay deposits may be formed in place as residual deposits in soil, but thick deposits usually are formed as the result of a secondary sedimentary deposition process after they have been eroded and transported from their original location of formation. Clay deposits are typically associated with very low energy depositional environments such as large lakes and marine basins.
Primary clays, also known as kaolins, are located at the site of formation. Secondary clay deposits have been moved by erosion and water from their primary location.[2]
Clays are distinguished from other fine-grained soils by differences in size and mineralogy. Silts, which are fine-grained soils that do not include clay minerals, tend to have larger particle sizes than clays, but there is some overlap in both particle size and other physical properties, and there are many naturally occurring deposits which include silts and also clay. The distinction between silt and clay varies by discipline. Geologists and soil scientists usually consider the separation to occur at a particle size of 2 µm (clays being finer than silts), sedimentologists often use 4-5 μm, and colloid chemists use 1 μm.[1] Geotechnical engineers distinguish between silts and clays based on the plasticity properties of the soil, as measured by the soils' Atterberg Limits. ISO 14688 grades clay particles as being smaller than 2 μm and silts larger.
Depending on the academic source, there are three or four main groups of clays: kaolinite, montmorillonite-smectite, illite, and chlorite. Chlorites are not always considered a clay, sometimes being classified as a separate group within the phyllosilicates. There are approximately 30 different types of "pure" clays in these categories, but most "natural" clays are mixtures of these different types, along with other weathered minerals.
Varve (or varved clay) is clay with visible annual layers, formed by seasonal differences in erosion and organic content. This type of deposit is common in former glacial lakes. When glacial lakes are formed there is very little movement of the water that makes the lake, and these eroded soils settle on the lake bed. This allows such an even distribution on the different layers of clay.[2]
Quick clay is a unique type of marine clay indigenous to the glaciated terrains of Norway, Canada, Northern Ireland, and Sweden. It is a highly sensitive clay, prone to liquefaction, which has been involved in several deadly landslides.
Historical and modern uses
Clays exhibit plasticity when mixed with water in certain proportions. When dry, clay becomes firm and when fired in a kiln, permanent physical and chemical changes occur. These reactions, among other changes, cause the clay to be converted into a ceramic material. Because of these properties, clay is used for making pottery items, both utilitarian and decorative, and construction products,[3] such as bricks, wall and floor tiles. Different types of clay, when used with different minerals and firing conditions, are used to produce earthenware, stoneware, and porcelain. Prehistoric humans discovered the useful properties of clay. Some of the earliest pottery shards recovered are from central Honshu, Japan. They are associated with the Jomon culture and the deposits from which they were recovered have been radiocarbon dated to around 14000 BC.[4] Depending on the content of the soil, clay can appear in various colors, from a dull gray to a deep orange-red.
Clay tablets were used as the first known writing medium, inscribed with cuneiform script through the use of a blunt reed called a stylus. Purpose-made clay balls were also used as sling ammunition.
Clays sintered in fire were the first form of ceramic. Bricks, cooking pots, art objects, dishware, and even musical instruments such as the ocarina can all be shaped from clay before being fired. Clay is also used in many industrial processes, such as paper making, cement production, and chemical filtering. Clay is also often used in the manufacture of pipes for smoking tobacco. Until the late 20th century bentonite clay was widely used as a mold binder in the manufacture of sand castings.
Clay, being relatively impermeable to water, is also used where natural seals are needed, such as in the cores of dams, or as a barrier in landfills against toxic seepage (lining the landfill, preferably in combination with geotextiles).[5] (See Puddling.)
Recent studies have investigated clay's absorption capacities in various applications, such as the removal of heavy metals from waste water and air purification.
Medical and agricultural uses
Recent research indicates that macaws visit clay licks periodically to eat from them.[6]
A traditional use of clay as medicine goes back to prehistoric times. An example is Armenian bole, which is used to soothe an upset stomach, similar to the way parrots (and later, humans) in South America originally used it.[7] Kaolin clay and attapulgite have been used as anti-diarrheal medicines.
Clay as a building material
Clay is one of the oldest building materials on Earth, among other ancient, naturally-occurring geologic materials such as stone and organic materials like wood. Between one-half and two-thirds of the world's population, in traditional societies as well as developed countries, still live or work in a building made with clay as an essential part of its load-bearing structure. Also a primary ingredient in many natural building techniques, clay is used to create adobe, cob, cordwood, and rammed earth structures and building elements such as wattle and daub, clay plaster, clay render case, clay floors and clay paints.

Nothing changes everything
There might be a scene where two people are casually talking; then, from some detail in the conversation, the characters suddenly comprehend each other's true feelings. In that instant, action stops, actors freeze, and from stage left wooden clappers go battari!
The two characters resume speaking as though nothing has happened; however, in the instant of that battari!, everything has changed.

Coronavirus Journal: Under the Sign of the Crocodile
Doubt entered our way of knowing, alongside danger: another feature of the Anthropocene. – Anna Lowenhaupt Tsing and Niels Bubandt, "Swimming with Crocodiles", Orion, Spring 2020, 70.
Like many, I have become somewhat obsessed with the novel coronavirus. Most days I spend a good chunk of time tracking the tragedies and transformations it has already wrought, as well as trying to understand the shape of what is to come.
How I think about the virus and its impacts changes at least a little every day, and has changed quite a lot over these weeks. I wrote earlier that I thought of the coronavirus as a message, and I still think so. Not that I think of it as an intentional message from God, Nature or Gaia, so much as a foreshadowing of what is coming, what is unfolding. Many of us have had the luxury of living within a benign, stable environment for all our lives. The coronavirus may be the first wave of the cataclysm we have called "climate change." This is what climate change will be like, to live it. This uncertainty. This pain. This breakdown of systems designed to function under stable environmental and social conditions. The difference is that this is just a little nudge, just one little ripple on a global scale, rather than the relentless cascade of breakdowns that climate change will bring. And this little nudge is sending us into a tailspin. Continue reading "Coronavirus Journal: Under the Sign of the Crocodile"

Peter Uihlein ( ; born August 29, 1989) is an American professional golfer who formerly played on the PGA Tour and the European Tour and now plays in the LIV Golf League. He was a member of the victorious U.S. team at the 2009 Walker Cup, where he compiled a 4–0 match record. Uihlein won the 2010 U.S. Amateur and is a former number one ranked amateur golfer in the world.

Amateur career
Uihlein was born in New Bedford, Massachusetts to Wally and Tina Uihlein, and grew up in Mattapoisett. Wally Uihlein is the retired chairman and chief executive officer of the Acushnet Company, a golf equipment manufacturer which comprises Titleist and other brands. At age 13, Uihlein moved to Bradenton, Florida to attend the David Leadbetter Golf program, part of IMG Academy's Pendleton School. He was named Player of the Year by the American Junior Golf Association (AJGA) in 2005 and again in 2007, becoming the fifth boy in the award's history to win more than once, joining a list that includes Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods. Uihlein was featured in a 2006 Sports Illustrated article spotlighting then-teenage athletes including Tyreke Evans, A. J. Green and John Tavares.

In 2007, Uihlein won the Terra Cotta Invitational. In 2008, Uihlein chose to attend Oklahoma State University, where he struggled with his game for a long stretch during his freshman year. Nonetheless, he was named to the 2009 Walker Cup team and posted a 4–0 record for the victorious U.S. squad. He won the Dixie Amateur in December and became the world's number one ranked amateur golfer in May 2010. After runner-up finishes at the Big 12 Championship and the NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championships, Uihlein won the Sahalee Players Championship by seven strokes.

On his 21st birthday, Uihlein defeated David Chung 4 & 2 in the 36-hole final of the U.S. Amateur at Chambers Bay in University Place, Washington. Uihlein became the fourth Oklahoma State player to win the event, and first since Scott Verplank in 1984. In September, Uihlein won the Mark H. McCormack Medal for being on top of the World Amateur Golf Ranking at the end of the amateur season, following the European Amateur and U.S. Amateur events.

During his junior year, Uihlein won the Ben Hogan Award, given to the best college golfer in the nation. He was also named a first team All-American. Uihlein tried unsuccessfully to defend his U.S. Amateur title in 2011 when he lost in the quarterfinals. He played the European and PGA Tour qualifying schools in 2011, but failed to earn tour cards on either tour. He decided to turn professional in December 2011.

Professional career
Uihlein finished in a tie for 12th at his first professional event on the Challenge Tour at the 2012 Gujarat Kensville Challenge. Uihlein has also played on the Sunshine Tour, where he finished T4 at the 2013 Tshwane Open, an event co-sanctioned with the European Tour. Uihlein earned his first professional win in 2013 at the Madeira Islands Open, a dual-ranked event on the European Tour and Challenge Tour. He ranked 14th in the 2013 Race to Dubai money list with eight top-10 finishes, and was named the European Tour's Sir Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year.

In 2017, Uihlein played the Puerto Rico Open on the PGA Tour via a sponsor's exemption and finished fifth. A week later, he finished 23rd at the Shell Houston Open. These earned him enough FedEx Cup points for a place in the 2017 Web.com Tour Finals. He won the first tournament to earn a place on the PGA Tour for 2017–18.

Uihlein played 26 events on the 2017–18 PGA Tour, making the cut 16 times. He had eight top-25 finishes, four top-10 finishes, and three top-five finishes. In round three of the Wells Fargo Championship, he had a birdie/eagle streak of 7-under on six holes, which tied him with Jonathan Randolph for the longest streak on the PGA Tour for the 2017–18 PGA season. He finished at number 64 in the FedEx Cup standings, qualifying him for the FedEx Cup playoffs in his rookie season, winning $1.8 million for the season.

During the 2018–19 season, Uihlein played a total of 29 events on the PGA Tour. His best results were a T7 at the RSM Classic in November 2018, and a T5 in May 2019 at the AT&T Byron Nelson tournament. He won $840,000 during the season, finishing at number 133 in the FedEx Cup standings.

In 2021, Uihlein won his second Korn Ferry Tour event at the MGM Resorts Championship.  He would go on to earn his PGA Tour card for 2022 with a Top 25 finish in the Korn Ferry Tour Finals.

On June 9, 2022, Uihlein was one of 17 PGA Tour members suspended for playing in the Saudi-backed LIV Golf.

Creetown Initiative Ltd (CI)
All the community
Creetown, Dumfries & Galloway, and Scotland wide.
In 2000 a group of local people came together to address the need for affordable housing in the Creetown area. This led to the setting up in 2004 of the Creetown Initiative to address local needs and the delivery of a range of regeneration projects to support the local economy including: environmental, renewables, sport and healthy living, community facilities, art and education. The Creetown Initiative Consultancy arm was created in 2006 when community groups elsewhere saw what was happening in Creetown and wanted assistance to carry out similar projects in their own area. The consultancy has now worked with other groups on over 80 projects across Scotland.
£50,000 – £70,000
The group owns and manages three buildings including the Creetown Initiatives office, The Waverley Hall, and the Creetown Enterprise Centre.
Our current assets total in excess of 100,000 pounds Sterling. This figure will rise on completion of the Enterprise Centre.
In 2000 a group of local people came together to examine options for providing affordable housing and regeneration projects in the Creetown area. Subsequently, in 2004 the Creetown Initiative was set up to address a range of local needs. In 2006 the initiative accessed funds to employ a full time project worker to take forward its regeneration plans. Since 2006 we have created 4 full-time posts, and 4 part-time or occasional posts and in 2009 became a social enterprise/development trust/community anchor.
Creetown Initiative Ltd currently has a core team of trained personnel with expertise in project implementation and management, as well as regeneration, funding, community consultation, business planning and accountancy skills.
Any local resident can be a member. The group currently has 8 board members who meet once a month to discuss the company's business, ongoing and future projects as well as strict focus on the company's finances.
CI works with the Community Council and also links with other community groups in the area on an informal basis.
CI works closely with the Dumfries and Galloway Council, Southern Upland Partnership, Third Sector Interface, SEPA, SNH, Forestry Commission, DTAS and is currently working with other initiatives and community organisations in Selkirk, Edinburgh, Newton Stewart, Kirkcudbright, Gatehouse of Fleet, Stranraer and Moniaive.
Now based in offices in the centre of the village, Creetown Initiative has grown closer to the people it serves. There is a constant flow of visitors to the office, people wanting to get involved, people with ideas, people simply looking for information.
Creetown Initiative aims are the delivery of local projects which support young and older people, the local economy, the environment, renewables, sport and healthy living, community facilities, art and education.
Creetown Initiative aims are the delivery of local projects which support young and older people, the local economy, the environment, renewables, sport and healthy living, community facilities, art and education. Since 2006 we have secured funding in excess of £2 million for local projects, including a £200,000 play park redevelopment, a new sports pavilion, a muga, a car share scheme and a bike loan scheme. Over £200,000 has been secured for a range of projects in Balloch Wood, we have a bee conservation project, we manage the local youth club and the neighbouring towns (Newton Stewart) youth clubs. We publish a quarterly magazine, have a film making unit and are a Creative Place winner.
The group now owns and manages three buildings including Creetown Initiatives office, The Waverley Hall, a community hall facility which supports a number of community groups and activities, and the Creetown Enterprise Centre, a former public house which is being developed to create a 29 bed bunk house, art and craft cooperative and base for our cycling, upcycling and car share scheme. This project is supported and funded by "Growing Community Assets" and will open Easter 2017.
Rather than relying solely on grants, Creetown Initiative is now using the expertise it has built up to undertake paid consultancy services across Scotland. The main services we offer are fund raising, governance advice, feasibility studies, business planning, project management and community consultation. We also offer support for rewewable projects and building projects. The consultancy has now worked with other groups on over 80 projects across Scotland, including raising £1.9m for the Theatre Royal Dumfries, the £1.4m development of the former Johnston School in Kirkcudbright and the development of a new Development Trust for Stranraer which is aiming to create an Oyster Festival, designed to help regenerate the coastal town of Stranraer. Other consultancy work includes the setting up of youth groups, securing funds for sporting facilities, carrying-out community consultations and creating community action plans.ank and Linlithgow.
We have raised over £2m for local projects since 2006.
We have built a muga which is used by both local people and those from the wider area of Dumfries and Galloway. 50 people use this facility every week of the year, especially young people.
We have started a new youth group and carryout associated youth activities. An average 70 youngsters are being supported each week, enabling them to participate in activities. We now manage youth provision in the neighbouring town of Newton Stewart
We are supporting the development of a new community centre. Once developed Creetown will run its own community centre removing any commitment and liability from the council. We estimate that 150 people will use the centre each week.
We have delivered two a major arts project (Inspire and Creative Places) which enabled people of all ages the chance to participate in the arts. Over 1000 people participated in the various events.
The development of Balloch Wood, a community woodland project, restoring paths, building bridges, interpretation buildings, planting over 10,000 new trees, shrubs and plants. We estimate that over 5000 people visit the woodland each year. The woodland serves as a conservation project and provides people with the opportunity to get out doors, helping improve and maintain their health.
We run an up-cycling project designed to reduce landfill from clothing/textiles. We organise sewing work shops and clothes swap meetings
We are looking at developing a Nordic Walking project which will attract new visitors, whilst offering local people the chance to get fit and healthy.
We have carried out a domestic carbon reduction programme, which helped people reduce their energy bills. Over 100 households were supported, where they were helped to reduce their energy bills.
We have developed Creetown's King George V Playing Fields (£200k was secured to develop the park)
Started a community car sharing club. (£30,000 was secured to purchase two cars). A third (all Electric Car) has just been added to our fleet.
Developed a Wheels2Work scooter loan scheme, providing transport for people seeking employment or training across Dumfries & Galloway.
We are creating Creetown Enterprise Centre which will support new and existing jobs. Attract visitors and help boost the local economy.
Working with the complex and challenging bureaucracy. Statutory bodies tend not to trust community groups, and yet we achieve so much.

Richardson calls for 21st century 'house calls'
Richardson proposed a plan that would allow seniors to get health care at home.
DAVENPORT, Iowa (CNN) - Democratic presidential candidate Bill Richardson proposed a "house calls" medical plan Thursday that would allow senior citizens to get health care at home they now can only get at the hospital.
The New Mexico governor unveiled the plan, called "Independence at Home," at the Divided We Fail/AARP/Iowa Public Television presidential candidate forum on health and financial security. He said it could save $13 to $16 billion a year by reducing emergency room visits and hospital admissions.
"Through electronic technology, they can get their care at home," Richardson said. "They can do it instead of having 13 doctors and having to go to the hospital the healthcare would come to them at home."
Richardson spokesman Tom Reynolds said the program would be entirely voluntary and would fall under Medicare, at no additional cost to the system.

Clinton: 'My mother lives with us'
Senator Hillary Clinton, D-New York
DAVENPORT, Iowa (CNN) - Hillary Clinton responded to a plan that Democratic rival Bill Richardson announced would bring health care directly to people in their homes–as opposed to forcing them to go to a hospital–by talking about her own mother.
"This is an issue that affects all of us," Clinton said. "My mother lives with us, as well, and we see it every single day."
Clinton press secretary Jay Carson said the candidate's mother has lived with the Clintons for "at least a couple of years" but that she¹s "as able and capable as they are."
"She just lives with them," Carson said.
Clinton made the comments at the Divided We Fail/AARP/Iowa Public Television presidential candidate forum on health and financial security.
She called for long-term care tax credit for people providing respite care. She said if the United States were to lose all it's caregivers, it would mean "a $300 billion cost to replace what is done out of love and out of family and other relationships."

Obama: Senate debate on ad 'makes no sense'
Senator Barack Obama, D-Illinois
(CNN)—Democratic presidential candidate, Senator Barack Obama said Thursday, "I happen to believe that General (David) Petraeus has served this country honorably." But he also said he did not cast a vote in the Senate on Thursday condemning an ad from MoveOn.org that attacked Petraeus, because he thought it was a distraction.
Speaking at a campaign rally in Atlanta, Georgia, Obama said the Congress could better spend its time figuring out ways to care for returning veterans, and making education more affordable for American families. "The notion that we're wasting time debating about a newspaper ad, makes no sense," the senator from Illinois said. "So I didn't even vote on that vote, I just said I'm not going to vote on this. This is the kind of game playing that the American people are tired of."
Twenty Democrats in the Senate joined the Republicans in the 72-25 vote that officially repudiates the group's ad. Sen. Joe Lieberman, an Independent from Connecticut, also voted for the measure, sponsored by Texas Republican John Cornyn.
Senator Hillary Clinton of New York, also a candidate for the Democratic nomination, voted against the measure. She has been criticized by several Republican presidential candidates for not distancing herself from the ad.
Obama was introduced by former NBA star Dominique Wilkins, and the musician Usher at his rally Thursday.

Jackson: 'Acting white' remark misinterpreted
Watch Rev. Jesse Jackson's interview from Thursday's American Morning.
WASHINGTON (CNN) - The Rev. Jesse Jackson told CNN Thursday that a South Carolina newspaper misinterpreted his comments when it reported he said Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama is "acting like he's white."
"There's an unfortunate misinterpretation," Jackson told CNN's Kiran Chetry on American Morning. "The fact is, I endorse Barack without hesitation and support him today unequivocally."
Jackson, who ran for president in 1984 and 1988, endorsed Obama's White House bid earlier this year.
The State, a South Carolina newspaper, reported Wednesday that Jackson was highly critical of Obama and the other presidential candidates for not paying more attention to the recent racially-charged incident in Jena, Louisiana. Jackson reportedly made the comment after a speech at Benedict College, a historically black college in Columbia.
When informed the newspaper intends to stand by its reporting of the quote, Jackson said, "I have not in any way engaged into the degrees of blackness debate. He's black, authentic and brilliant. I support him and I stand by that position."

Reid: Frustrated Dems will keep pushing for end to Iraq war
Reid said Thursday Republicans "want to protect the president more than they want to protect our troops."
WASHINGTON (CNN) - Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Thursday that Democrats are disappointed that they have been unable to force President Bush to change course in Iraq, but vowed to keep pushing with or without Republican help.
GOP senators have successfully filibustered every Democratic-led push to bring troops home from Iraq, using a procedural vote Wednesday to kill a proposal that would have required the Pentagon to give troops returning from Iraq stateside time equal to their time in the combat zone.
Though six Republicans joined Democrats in voting for the plan, the final vote was four short of the 60 needed to break a filibuster.
"They want to protect the president more than they want to protect our troops," said Reid, D-Nev.
And by a wide margin Thursday, senators killed a proposal by Wisconsin Democrat Russ Feingold to cut off money for the war. The vote was 70-28.

Clinton ripped off Edwards' health care plan says wife
Watch Mrs. Edwards criticize Clinton's health care plan in an interview with CNN.
COLUMBIA, South Carolina (CNN) - Elizabeth Edwards, the wife of Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, attacked Sen. Hillary Clinton's health care plan Wednesday as a carbon copy of her husband's plan, and accused the New York Democrat of selling lobbyists insider access to the government.
In an interview with CNN before attending a rally here for protestors on behalf of six African-American students in Jena, Louisiana, Mrs. Edwards accused Clinton of "insider cronyism" and trading political access for campaign donations. This comes on the heels of similar sentiments put forth by her husband in recent weeks.
"You can have a meeting with a member of Congress if you donate to Hillary's campaign," said Mrs. Edwards. "What this is saying is she's willing to sell special access to the government if you just have the check. Isn't that just exactly what John is saying we shouldn't be doing?"
Mrs. Edwards also said that she sees almost no differences between Clinton's health care plan, unveiled Monday in Des Moines, and that of her husband.
"I don't call it Senator Clinton's health care plan," Edwards said. "I call it John Edwards' health care plan as delivered by Hillary Clinton. The truth is that anyone who tries to describe Hillary's health care plan will run through every material part of John's health care plan.
"I just have to wonder, if John released his plan at the beginning of February, what took her seven and a half months to endorse it? We're glad for the endorsement."

Kucinich, Gravel: We were snubbed - again
Kucinich and Gravel were not invited to two big Iowa events this week.
DES MOINES, Iowa (CNN) - For the second time in one week, Democratic presidential candidates Rep. Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio, and former Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel will be absent from an Iowa stage on which the majority of their opponents will be standing.
Thursday night marks the Divided We Fail/AARP/Iowa Public Television presidential candidate forum on health and financial security. It also marks the second time this week that an event or organization has not exactly welcomed these two candidates with open arms.
The first was Sunday– Iowa Sen. Tom Harkin's annual Steak Fry.
Spokespeople from both Sunday's and Thursday's events say the two candidates would have been allowed to schmooze and hold hands with the rest of the pack had they met the criteria–a stronger physical presence in Iowa.
Mark Fetterhoff, a spokesperson with the AARP Divided We Fail initiative, said every candidate was invited, but there were two stipulations for Thursday's forum that neither candidate met by the deadline: a physical campaign office in Iowa and at least one paid campaign staff representative performing full-time duties in the stateon behalf of the candidate since at least August 1, 2007.

Q: Dynamic memory C My task is to create program that reads all the words from file and puts into output file those words, that are identical from beginning to end (i mean aha, oho, asdsa, assa, etc). And task requires usage of dynamic memory (university), but I have been stuck in this place for days because I can't find why it doesn't want to do what I intend to do. I have 4 words in file. Those 4 printfs should print all words, but my program prints 3rd word, (null) and segmentation error. I use one-sided dynamic memory.
Please explain why it doesn't work, because I can't do it myself. Thank you in advance!
Code:
/*
 * Task: Write program, that finds all words from file which reads from beginning to end (lets call them mirror-type words)
 */

#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<stdlib.h>

struct elements
{
        char str[255];
        struct elements *next;
};

/* Function checks if given word is mirror-type word */
int is_mirror(char str[255])
{
        int length = strlen(str);

        int to = (length % 2 == 1) ? (length - 1) / 2 : length / 2;

        int i = 0;
        while (i < to)
        {
                if (str[i] != str[length-i-1]) return 0;

                i++;
        }
        return 1;
};

int main()
{
        FILE *in;
        in = fopen("3_12.in", "r");
        if (in == NULL)
        {
                printf("Input file doesnt exist.\r\n");
                return 0;
        }

        char str[255];
        fscanf(in, "%s", str);

        struct elements *beginning, *element;

        element = (struct elements *) malloc(sizeof(struct elements));
        strcpy(element->str, str);

        beginning = element;

        do
        {
                fscanf(in, "%s", str);

                element->next = (struct elements *) malloc(sizeof(struct elements));
                strcpy(element->str, str);

                if (feof(in))
                {
                        element->next = NULL;
                        break;
                }
        }
        while(1);

        printf("%s\r\n", element->str);
        printf("%s\r\n", element->next->str);
        printf("%s\r\n", element->next->next->str);
        printf("%s\r\n", element->next->next->next->str);

        fclose(in);
}

A: Looking at your code it looks likes you missed a step in your loop. You never advance passed the second word because element is never updated.
Code Snippet
do
{
    fscanf(in, "%s", str); //Get the string

    element->next = (struct elements *) malloc(sizeof(struct elements)); //Create a new element at the end of the list

    element = element->next; //Move forward to the newly created element

    strcpy(element->str, str); //Copy the read string into the newly create element's `str`

    //If we've hit the end of the file, put a null at the end of the list and break
    if (feof(in))
    {
            element->next = NULL;
            break;
    }
}
while(1);

Check out this page it has some great information on linked lsits (which is what you're using).
Edit 1
I noticed an error with the original code I had written. Where str is set it was overwriting the original element's str value. The code would never create a list longer than 1 element and that one element would always have the last word in the file followed by a null.

A: Here is how it should be with two words to be read.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<stdlib.h>

struct elements {
  char str[255];
  struct elements *next;
};

int main() {
  FILE *in;
  in = fopen("test.txt", "r");
  if (in == NULL) {
    printf("Input file doesnt exist.\r\n");
    return 0;
  }

  char str[255];
  fscanf(in, "%s", str);

  struct elements *beginning, *element;

  element = malloc(sizeof(struct elements));
  strcpy(element->str, str);
  element->next = NULL;

  beginning = element;

  do {
    fscanf(in, "%s", str);
    element = malloc(sizeof(struct elements));
    strcpy(element->str, str);
    element->next = NULL;

    beginning->next = element;

    if (feof(in)) {
      break;
    }
  } while (1);

  printf("%s\r\n", beginning->str);
  printf("%s\r\n", beginning->next->str);

  fclose(in);
  free(beginning->next);
  free(beginning);
}

So, you are trying to build one linked list. I create in the above example one node, set the first word read to it element->str, and element->next to NULL.
Then I set the beginning to that node. Note that instead of beginning, people usually use head, since it's the first node of the list.
Then I do the same thing for the next word and I am inserting the new node as the second node of the list.

You see that you need to build a list, because this is getting big. I learnt how to do that through this code.

Do not cast what malloc() returns.

A: change
beginning = element;

do
{
        fscanf(in, "%s", str);

        element->next = (struct elements *) malloc(sizeof(struct elements));
        strcpy(element->str, str);

        if (feof(in))
        {
                element->next = NULL;
                break;
        }
}
while(1);

printf("%s\r\n", element->str);
printf("%s\r\n", element->next->str);
printf("%s\r\n", element->next->next->str);
printf("%s\r\n", element->next->next->next->str);

to
beginning = element;

while(EOF!=fscanf(in, "%s", str)){
    element->next = (struct elements *) malloc(sizeof(struct elements));
    element = element->next;
    strcpy(element->str, str);
}
element->next = NULL;

printf("%s\n", beginning->str);
printf("%s\n", beginning->next->str);
printf("%s\n", beginning->next->next->str);
printf("%s\n", beginning->next->next->next->str);

and add palindrome check.

Detroit — In 2017, Michigan's biggest city posted its lowest tally of criminal homicides in more than a half-century: 267, Detroit Police Chief James Craig confirmed Monday.
That number, if it holds upon review, is the fewest criminal homicides since the 214 recorded in 1966. But that was at a time when Detroit had a population of more than 1.5 million people — a rate of about 14 homicides per 100,000 residents.
The 267 homicides in 2017, compared to Detroit's most recent estimated population of about 673,000 as of July 2016, is a rate of about 40 per 100,000 residents.
Compared to the 305 homicides in Detroit in 2016, the 2017 tally represents a 12 percent drop. In 2015, Detroit recorded 295 homicides.
Later this week, police department brass will discuss the official 2017 data at a press conference, police said.
Only four times since 1966 has Detroit finished a year with less than 300 homicides: 1966, 1967 (the year of the uprising), 2015 and 2017. In 1968, the total shot up more than 100, from 281 in 1967 to 389. At the high water mark in 1974, Detroit had 714 homicides.
Mayor Mike Duggan credited 2017's drop in homicides to the expansion of two initiatives: Project Green Light, a surveillance program at some 240 gas stations, fast-food restaurants and other businesses in the city, which provides high-quality video to investigators; and Operation Ceasefire, a program in which police partnered with the U.S. Attorney's Office and Wayne County prosecutors to identify gang members and others who are likely to commit crimes or be victims.
"Chief Craig has started to have the necessary resources," Duggan told The Detroit News on Monday. "The criminal element is starting to pause."Craig, who also serves as deputy mayor, also credited the lower crime numbers in part to Project Green Light.
Craig called those virtual patrols "force multipliers" that allow police the ability to monitor known and emerging hotspots for crime remotely in addition to patrols done by scout cars.
Craig said the city has 232 Green Light locations, and the goal is to have 400 by the end of next year.
Duggan cited last month's arrests of twin brothers filmed while allegedly shooting up a gas station on Fenkell as a success of the Green Light program.
"Two or three years ago, we would've only been able to offer a general description," Duggan said. "With Green Light, we had clear video and were able to quickly make the arrests."
The other program city leaders cite as a factor in falling crime is the expansion of Operation Ceasefire. Craig said he expects to roll out that program citywide by March. It's currently operating on the east side and in the 6th Precinct on the west side.
Duggan called Operation Ceasefire "a team effort of all the agencies" involved, including the Detroit Police Department, the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office, and the Detroit branch of the U.S. Attorney's Office, which Duggan described as "the most aggressive in America in prosecuting gang violence."
"We have got the most advanced system of crime intelligence that the police department has ever had," Duggan said. "They are able to pull data instantly; if a shooting happens at 2 a.m, we have the ability to pull data and have a really good idea which groups are involved and be out the next day responding."
Some targeted in Operation Ceasefire are connected to educational and job-training opportunities, Duggan said.
"One guy (once targeted in Ceasefire) is a manager at a manufacturing factory now," Duggan said.
Another, Craig said, chose not to show up to a Ceasefire meeting as planned. Within two hours, he was arrested for violating his probation. Soon after returning to the streets, he was killed, he said.
In recent years, advances in medicine also have driven down homicide numbers nationwide, Craig added.
Duggan and Craig both cited the police department's closure rate for homicides — 58 percent as of two weeks before the new year — as another factor in building trust with the community.
"When you have relationships with the community you serve and protect, they talk to you," Craig said.
He compared the closure rate to the 11 percent it was in 2012 before he arrived. Part of the problem police had, he said, is that the community "had lost confidence in us."
Seeing suspects be arrested and face charges has helped, he said.
Other major metropolitans are also reporting drops in homicides for the year.
In Chicago, homicides also fell from the historic high of 771 in 2016 to 650 in 2017, a decline of about 16 percent, according to the Associated Press.
The New York Daily News is reporting New York's police probed 290 homicides for 2017, the city's lowest mark in nearly 70 years.
Detroit's four-day respite in homicides to end the year was not without violence.
On Saturday, a 23-year-old man was shot on the west side while driving with a four-year-old boy in his backseat.
Early on New Year's Eve, a 30-year-old man was shot twice after allegedly arguing with a man in his 50s at a club on Eight Mile.
And in the last hour of 2017, two men were shot in separate incidents – one shot in the hand outside a liquor store in southwest Detroit, the other in undetermined circumstances on Seven Mile and Gratiot – in two of the six shootings that rang in the new year.


Tricia & Sean got married in Cloughoge Chapel, Newry, County Down.
After a few photos with their photographer Ryan McDonald on the golf course behind the church, it was straight on to Castlewellan Forest Park for their bridal party photos.
Then it was on to Hugh McCanns Newcastle County Down for the reception. Later they had the first dance to the Ella Henderson song 'Yours' This was followed with live music provided by The Breakfast Club.
Claire & John got married in St. John the Baptist Church, Portadown. From there they headed to the beautiful National Trust house The Argory near Moy, for a photo shoot with close family. Then on to the Armagh City Hotel for the reception, the evening entertainment was kicked off with live music from Sugartown Road, followed by a special performance from the very talented Celtic Storm.
Wendy & Ashley got married in St Annes Church of Ireland Dungannon. Then on to Roe Valley country Park & Dog Leap House, Limavady for the photos, followed by their reception at Radisson Roe Limavady.
Danielle & Fergal got married a few days after Christmas at St Threse Chapel Belfast, the guests were pleasantly surprised to find a 'vintage bus' awaiting when they exited the church. They all headed to Ten Square in the centre of Belfast for the reception with a quick visit to the front of the city hall for some memorable photos, perfect!!
Donna & Wayne tied the knot just outside Tandragee with a romantic candlelit service in Mullavilly Parish Church. Afterward, a warm welcome awaited the newlyweds at Tandragee Golf Club where they held their reception. Following the first dance, the night was just beginning as friends and family took to the floor and danced the night away.

Unconventional developer has big plans to expand Belfast waterfront
Abigail Curtis | BDN
Entrepreneur Paul Naron as pictured in this Oct. 19. 2016, file photo.
By Abigail Curtis, BDN Staff • December 22, 2018 1:00 am
BELFAST, Maine — Paul Naron, 69, a businessman who moved to Belfast from Florida about 10 years ago, is not a typical retiree. He's not even a typical developer.
But his development projects have been changing the Belfast waterfront. And in a moment when it seems that just about any proposed development in Belfast quickly becomes a lightning rod for opposition and controversy, his projects have caused anticipation rather than a ruckus.
Naron, who is best known for opening the United Farmers Market of Maine in a former window manufacturing showroom on Spring Street, is onto something new. His latest project is renovating the former French & Webb boatbuilder's workshop and a 1-acre lot, which he purchased in June, and the more ramshackle former Consumer's Fuel garage next door, which he bought in 2017.
His ideas for the two buildings are big and include the possibilities of tripling the size of the marina. Naron also wants to add a yacht club and a restaurant hopes will be a comfortable gathering place that emphasizes conversation and community. He might even add a hotel.
One of the drawings for the renovation of the former Consumers Fuel building, purchased last year by Belfast businessman and developer Paul Naron.
Naron would rather not commit to a precise plan, saying that he has achieved development success because he's been flexible, not rigid, in his thinking. He knows he does not want the structures to look greatly different than they do now or have an expanded footprint.
And he said that profit is not his ultimate goal — making a better Belfast is.
"I want to live here, and I want to be proud of what I'm doing," Naron said. "Money is not my God. This is a personal thing."
Naron's development plans are moving through the city's permitting process and earlier this month were approved by the Belfast Intown Design Review Committee.
The Belfast Planning Board is scheduled to review his application Jan. 9 and then make recommendations to the Belfast City Council, which will need to give the plan final approval.
He does have a positive track record so far with turning his visions into reality, according to Belfast officials. In the spring of 2017, he opened his Saturday-only farmers market in the former Mathews Bros. window showroom with dreams of making it a destination for visitors and locals that would remain vibrant even during the long Maine winters.
Developer and businessman Paul Naron has a vision for the Belfast waterfront that emphasizes community over profit.
It sounded ambitious, but that's what happened, and the Saturday markets are still easily bringing in 1,000-2,000 people, Naron said. Now, he is turning his attention to two other buildings he has purchased on the waterfront, both located just a block or so from the farmers market building.
Councilor Eric Sanders said he has not seen Naron's plan yet and cannot comment on the specifics. He was happy to talk about his own experience with the developer, saying that he first met Naron a couple of summers ago when Sanders was performing in an outdoors summer musical with the Belfast Maskers theater group.
"There were huge rainstorms and forecasts for more rainstorms," Sanders said. "Paul volunteered to allow the Maskers for free to do the show in his [farmers market] building. That pretty much showed his colors to me as a community participator and all-around nice guy. Yes, he's a businessman, but he certainly loves this community and has shown that since Day One."
According to the plans, the existing marina near the former garage at 15 Front St. would be tripled in size, and the popular Harbor Walk pedestrian trail would continue to run through the properties.
The United Farmers Market of Maine eventually may move from its current Spring Street location to the former French & Webb building at 7 Front St. But that move won't happen until the new building is renovated to create a large space with windows that overlook the harbor.
"You have to have a place to break bread together," Naron said.
According to Sadie Lloyd, a planner with the City of Belfast, there has not yet been significant public comment on Naron's plans. A few neighbors have indicated they are concerned about the view or parking, but the buildings are not changing in height, she said, adding that Naron's portion of the waterfront will remain accessible to the public.
"Even though he may own these properties, they're not shut down for public access," she said. "I have to give full credit to Paul for that. He made the decision to invite the public on his property."
Zach Schmesser of Our Town Belfast said that the development certainly could be an asset to the city.
"Paul Naron's projects on the waterfront have the potential to be a great extension or addition to our existing downtown," he said.

We're tipping those picked last don;t want to make this public, but hey —just getting to an All-Star game is a win in itself. So don't be a baby about it.


I don't remember Kathy buying that shirt but I guess she has it somewhere. Jamie and I went to Andrew's to meet up with the Kathy-birthday gang. Everyone was pretty well buzzed by the time we arrived (Jamie supplied with Gerber Daisies) but we dealt with the poor service and the utter incompetence at the bar. Where were you Chris >:o That's an angry face. Afterwards, we went to Jamie's parents' house while Jamie took care of their dogs. Jamie dropped me off from there and I spent the rest of my night Schenkrizing my analysis. Yeah, go Schenker.

What Kind of LGBTQ Events Will I Find Here?
We compiled a global calendar of festivals and events around the world that have an LGBTQ theme but are not specifically pride events. Since pride events are so common and numerous, we've created a completely separate calendar including hundreds of events around the world—click here to view our Gay Pride Calendar. The events on this list include a variety of festivals, gatherings or events with different themes ranging from music, art, food, sports, dance, advocacy, comedy and more. While each event may be different, the common thread that binds all these together events is the celebration within the LGBTQ community.
We have published this calendar to inform the LGBTQ community of important festivals and events globally to offer a complete source for planning your travel. This event calendar includes more than 100 listings, but you can sort and filter the list by region and date to determine where you want to go or when to plan your trip. Events displayed in light grey have already taken place for the year. Some of the cities and event organizers listed here are also IGLTA members, which are designated by the 'Member' badge next to the event listing. IGLTA membership indicates a city's willingness to actively welcome the LGBTQ community to that destination. Some IGLTA members also have enhanced membership, including Featured Destination or Global Partner. Global Partners are an elite group of global brands that have committed to improving travel for the LGBTQ community worldwide.
Why Visit a Destination During a Local Festival or Event?
Visiting a destination during an LGBTQ festival or event is a great way to not only see the city, its landmarks and learn its history, but also to immerse yourself in the local LGBTQ community. Whether traveling alone, with friends or family, visiting during a festival or event can be a fun way to experience a new destination and IGLTA can help you find LGBTQ-friendly business in almost any location to help make you trip memorable, safe and exciting.
The International Gay & Lesbian Travel Association is the world's leading network of LGBTQ-welcoming tourism businesses.

The Weekly News-Magazine
THE PRESIDENCY Mr. Coolidge's Week
A hat, a large hat such as Mexican "greasers" wear, such as cowboys wear in the cinema-in short, a sombrero, its rim a burning red, its crown a brilliant blue, was given into the hands of Mr. Coolidge. After a short moment of admiration for so engaging a specimen of the hatter's craft, Mr. Coolidge stuck his head under the hat's ample canopy and in no time became a member of the Smoki Tribesmen of Prescott, Ariz. With the President in the rear grounds of the White House were representatives of the Prescott Chamber of Commerce, who performed the initiative ceremony, explained that the object of the Smokis was to preserve to posterity Southwestern Indian rituals.
It was a talkative week for Mr. Coolidge (see THE CAMPAIGN). He addressed: A large delegation of Manhattan tradesmen, who came before him on the White House lawn bearing ancient guild banners and their own goodwill; the U. S. Chamber of Commerce, before whom Mr. Coolidge went where they sat assembled in their newly dedicated home in Washington; the "Golden Rule Dinner" of the Near East Relief, at which Mr. Coolidge was guest of honor; the $100-a-plate dinner of the Federation for the Support of Jewish Philanthropic Societies, the guests at which sat in Manhattan while Mr. Coolidge sat in his chair at Washington and let his voice be heard over a private telephone wire.
The fourth biennial convention of the United Lutheran Church in America, in Chicago assembled, had read to it a Coolidge greeting: "As I study the three great movements of humanity into the American Colonies-the Puritans into New England, the Lutherans and Quakers into Pennsylvania, and the Cavaliers into Virginia. .
Secretary Slemp, eternally vigilant, stepped between the busy chief executive and a sheaf of letters from Washington renters at odds with their landlords. The renters, threatened with raises, applied excitedly for pres
idential intervention, for army "pup" tents on the White House ellipse in case the landlords remained adamant. Vigilant Slemp passed word about rent raises to the District Attorney, about "pup" tents to the War Department. Realtors offered the President their services and Mr. Slemp thanked them. Thus was the Presidential desk kept free for national business.
The President and Mrs. Coolidge attended a wedding-that of Miss Beatrice Beck, daughter of the Solicitor General, and one S. Pinkney Tuck.
The President canceled all his engagements for Oct. 27, directed the State Department to issue a proclamation of official mourning for the late
Henry Cantwell Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture. With Mrs. Coolidge, the President called on Mrs. Wallace, later wrote her a letter: "His loss will be a grief to the entire nation, for his fine qualities and able, untiring services had endeared him to all the people."
Services at the White House were in the nature of a State funeral.
THE CAMPAIGN Alarums and Excursions
The progress of another week's campaigning brought all the candidates to the eve of the election.
Calvin Coolidge no longer kept his peace. He marched before the members of the U. S. Chamber of Commerce in Washington assembled, and with the aid of 23 broadcasting sta• tions addressed the country at large as well as the Chamber men. All other U. S. radio stations hushed their voices for 45 minutes while Mr. Coolidge enlarged on his favorite topics of economy, reduced taxation, efficient government. He repeated his party's oftcried warning against persons desiring Government ownership of railroads and subjugation of the Supreme Court. Said he "The intelligence, the courage, the faith of the people will support America."
Standing on the south portico of the White House, Mr. Coolidge also spoke, politico-officially, to a delegation of business men representing 47 trades. This time he said: "This is a business country.. it wants a business Government."
Another officio-political utterance was drawn from Candidate Coolidge by the "Golden Rule Dinner" of the Near East Relief. He reminisced about the Administration's foreign policies, saying: "In our country are many exceedingly modest souls. Constantly they depreciate their own as- · sumption that our country has done nothing for Europe, made no contribution to world welfare. . . . I do not think that our country needs to assume any attitude of apology. . America is ready today, as always, to
National Affairs-[Continued]
do its full share. It wants the peace of goodwill and of the Golden Rule."
Also, Mr. Coolidge mailed a long letter via Col. Hanford P. McNider, onetime head of the American Legion, "to the service men and women of America." Said he: "I appeal to you who in the past have proved worthy of all reliance."
Charles G. Dawes headed a general eastward migration of all the stumptouring candidates. Bundling together notes, pipes and baggage in Evanston, Ill., he boarded the Dawes Special. Across flat Indiana sped the train, through sleeping Ohio, over the Alleghenies as Pittsburghers were sitting down to breakfast.
In Harrisburg,
Pa., a Bishop went to the station to pay his respects, but was informed that the candidate was taking a siesta. Disappointed, the Bishop went away; but a few minutes later rail employes beheld General Dawes freshly arisen from his day-bed, smoking on a brassrailed rear platform. Cheers followed the train as it pulled out for Philadelphia.
There the echoes in the Academy of Music crackled and rang with the staccato Dawes voice. "Where do you stand?" the voice demanded, . . . "on the rock of the Constitution and under the flag with Coolidge or on the shifting sands of Socialism?"
Back aboard the Special, the candidate recrossed Pennsylvania, spoke in Pittsburgh, in Washington, Pa., swung down into Wheeling, W. Va., for a mass-meeting, complete with parade and red fire; circled north again through Lancaster, Pa., to Wilmington, Del., where he announced: "The pinheads on the political committees have been advising me to preach one thing in one section of the country and another thing in another section. . . Not so with the women in this campaign."
On to Newark to say this: "I blush for my sex when I think of some of the advice I have received from members of the National Republican Committee of my own sex." Also to reiterate "the shifting sands" alarum. Then a sleep in Montclair, N. J., at the C. A. Hanna home, and the candidate entered Manhattan, crossed to Brooklyn and spoke, slept at the Waldorf, motored to Albany.
John W. Davis. put Tennessee behind him and rumbled into Kentucky. At Franklin, Bowling Green, Elizabethtown, he saluted throngs. In Louisville, the Horse Show pavilion at the State Fairgrounds was his forum. He was among friends and spoke genially, quietly, saving his fire for stormy Indiana, whither he repaired next day for
a third time since the campaign opened. Vincennes, Princeton and Evansville were the stumps selected.
In Vincennes, Mr. Davis was at pains to scotch a rumor that he was kin to Henry Gassaway Davis, Democratic nominee for Vice President in 1904, and that he was a member of a family that had employed non-union labor in its West Virginia coal mines.
In Evansville, he referred to Secretary of War Weeks as "one of the two unmuzzled members of the Cabinet." (The other member evidently being Secretary of State Hughes, who had, up to that time, delivered three formal campaign speeches. Secretary Weeks had just made a speech in Manhattan.) Mr. Davis talked of "a housecleaning at Washington" if he should be elected; of "creeping paralysis" in the Republican system.
Soon after this, Newton D. Baker introduced Mr. Davis to an audience in Cleveland. The introduction and Mr. Davis' speech had to be curtailed in order to be broadcasted, as it was the night of Candidate Coolidge's speech and the air was to be "cleared" earlier than usual. But Mr. Davis, speaking from the very rostrum from which Candidate Coolidge was nominated in June, found time to denounce the tariff and the Republican record and to squelch a heckler who bawled out "What is your stand on the Ku Klux Klan ?"
The second 6,000 mile tour was over. Journeying to Manhattan, Mr. Davis sank into the cushions of his motor car, was whisked off to his Locust Valley (L. I.) home. It was his intention to finish the campaign in and around Manhattan. Said he: "The Democratic Party will win the Presidential election."
No sooner had John W. Davis left Illinois than Charles W. Bryan entered it his first trans-Mississippi appearance. But whereas Mr. Davis had gone chiefly to large towns, centres of capital and industry, Mr. Bryan visited the smaller farming and laboring communities. With Candidate LaFollette harrying north of him, Mr. Bryan devoted two days to scouring the southern part of the state in flag-decked automobiles. He stopped in Christopher, Benton, Fairfield, Mount Vernon (near his birthplace, Salem, where he is still known as "Jack" Bryan, a boyhood nickname). Winding up with a speech at Robinson, he then jumped over into Ohio, working through Norwalk and Middletown (home of James M. Cox-onetime Presidential candidate), and thus back into Indiana, the while Mr. Davis worked the other way, from west to east.
The end of the week found Mr.
Bryan "tired but hopeful" after making seventeen speeches. He returned to Nebraska, nursing a cold, to swing around the home state once again.
The LaFollette whirlwind, out of which a loud voice spoke continually, swept into Illinois after wrenching at Republican and Democratic strongholds up and down the Mississippi Basin. "This campaign," said the candidate in Rock Island, "is between those who produce wealth and those who exploit wealth."
"These protected interests [sugar]," said the candidate at Peoria, "get five dollars for every dollar that
goes into the Federal Treasury. The President saves at the spigot and wastes at the bunghole . . . Cheeseparing policy."
Then the whirlwind gathered speed. It spun along the railroad tracks into Grand Rapids, Mich., and the voice said: "The issue in this election is between constructive men and destructive men."
It tore along the ties into Syracuse, N. Y., and the voice said: "We are determined that Wall Street shall not buy this election." Then it headed for Weehawken, N. J., Aiken, Md., Baltimore, Schenectady, Boston, Pittsburgh.
On the Kansas circuit, Burton K. Wheeler was rebuked. Leading Republicans* admonished him, brought it to his attention that politics was one thing while "merchandising half-baked scandal," "raking up unsupported allegations," "mudslinging," constituted quite another. "Very prettily said," retorted Mr. Wheeler; and continued his attacks on the Coolidge and Dawes pre-office records, through Caldwell, Wellington, Herington, McFarland, Topeka.
Factional strife among the Kansas Third Party leaders occupied his attention a moment then he was off for much-stumped Illinois, speaking in Chicago ("The Dawes' Plan means economic servitude for Germany!") and in Rockford ("Watch Washington for startling 'slush fund' disclosures!").
Meantime, La Follette headquarters. in Washington continued to issue "direct challenges," "defies," "prizes for evidence contradictory to this and that charge," all published under the direction of Candidate Wheeler.
Oct. 27), for certain large rats smelled in the Republican Campaign by Third Party Candidate La Follette. While in full cry, the rat-hunters nosed also at various non-Republican scents and holes.
Democratic Testimony. The week previous, the Committee had taken Republican and Third Party testimony. To round out its survey, the Committee, last week, heard the testimony of Clem L. Shaver, Chairman, and James W. Gerard, Treasurer, of the Democratic National Committee. These gentlemen averred that their total budget added into the neighborhood of $750,000 of which $549,000 had been contributed by some 4,000 persons.
Said Chairman Borah of the Senate Committee: "I saw a statement . . . that you contemplated an expediture of $1,500,000."
Replied Mr. Gerard: "I suppose if they gave us $1,500,000, we would accept it."
Forthwith the Committee adjourned for the day.
Witnesses. Came four subpoenaed Pennsylvanians before the Committee to bear witness to Republican finance in their state. Came also one T. V. O'Connor, Chairman of the U. S. Shipping Board, subpoenaed by the Committee out of curiosity aroused by a statement of his that Soviet Russian money had filtered into the U. S. via Mexico to bolster the La Follette candidacy.
Mr. O'Connor was heard first. He had to admit that he was indebted to Dame Rumor for his information. Said he: "I believe it in my own heart, though I have no way to prove it." He begged "a few days" to find proof.
Then the Pennsylvanians. One Joseph R. Grundy of Bristol, Pa., manufacturer of woolens, told how he and one W. L. Mellon of Pittsburgh had canvassed Pennsylvania's 81 counties by letters "to everybody, irrespective of race, creed, color and previous condition of servitude."
"That," said Senator Caraway, "would include practically everybody in Pennsylvania."
These letters had urged upon their recipients a duty to contribute funds in token of their "gratitude." Another term used was "enlightened self-interest." These terms had puzzled the Committee, drawn fire from Democrats and Progressives.
Mr. Grundy explained: "Gratitude for wonderful opportunities this country has enjoyed through the beneficent legislation of the Republican Party." The rat-hunters had been asked to sniff about for two Republican funds in addition to the regular Party budget -one fund the care of bankers, the other of manufacturers and business men. Mr. Grundy vowed ignorance of
such funds. So did the other three Pennsylvanians, one Nathan T. Folwell (dress goods), Samuel M. Vauclain (Baldwin locomotives), Edward T. Stotesbury (banks); but Mr. Vauclain became involved in an explanation of a
SAMUEL VAUCLAIN "Money doesn't talk."
$10,000 contribution which his company had made to an organization (The American Economic Institute) whose frankly admitted aim was "to protect the railroads against improper legislation."
Asked Senator Caraway: "Then capital has got a perfect right to hire people to go out and manufacture sentiment; is that your view?"
Mr. Vauclain: "Yes, Sir!"
Sitting with the Committee were Lawyers Frank P. Walsh and Samuel Untermyer, representatives of Senator La Follette.
Lawyer Walsh cut in: "If you knew this money was to be used to defeat Senator LaFollette in doubtful s ates, would you object?"
Mr. Vauclain: "I would object." Further interrogated, Mr. Vauclain made it clear that he was a millionaire, that he had lent his name to Mr. Grundy's fund-raising committee for its potent influence.
Lawyer Walsh: "You always winmoney talks!"
Mr. Vauclain: "Money doesn't talk, Righteousness talks."
More Witnesses. Another fine rathunting day dawned. The Committee received a financial bulletin from Republican National Treasurer William V. Hodges ($500,000 collected in five
days since Oct. 10; grand total, $2,200,000; $800,000 to go in order to reach the $3,000,000 budget); received also a request from thorough-going Lawyer Untermyer that additional Republicans be subpenaed. Lawyer Untermyer had reasoned thus: The names of such men as Elbert H. Gary, J. P. Morgan, the Rockefellers and other "recognized Republicans" do not appear on the list of donors to date. From this, we may readily deduce that there is a hidden fund. Go to! Let us quiz the Republican State Chairmen of New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Illinois.
The Committee granted Lawyer Untermyer's request.
Next, Senator Thomas J. Walsh of Montana, Teapot Dome inquisitor, telegraphed to say that he feared $100,000 was going to Montana to be used against him in his fight for reëlection and that this money would not pass through the hands of the National or State Republican Committees. Another scent! Off put the patient hunters once more, Senator Caraway barking long and loudly at Charles D. Hilles, New York representative on the National Committee who was occupying the witness seat that day.
Mr. Hilles guarded his answers, infuriated Senator Caraway, swore he knew of no grounds for Senator Walsh's fear.
After issuing numerous other subpœnaes at the request of Lawyers Walsh and Untermyer, the committee splitSenators Borah and Shipstead returning to Chicago to take additional testimony, Senators Caraway and Bayard remaining in Washington for a like purpose.
Scare
"The American nation tonight faces the greatest crisis in its history since the Union was saved from disruption half a century ago.
"With the deadlock of the last three weeks still prevailing in Congress-the House deadlocked on the election of a President and the Senate still unable to choose a Vice President-the prospect is that the country will be without a regularly elected chief executive when President Coolidge's term expires at noon tomorrow.
"Coming on top of the business depression and winter of unemployment Government chaos has, wrought
a general consternation. .
"President Coolidge, at this hour, is meeting with members of his Cabinet and Republican, Democratic and Third Party leaders in a last effort to obtain a tri-partisan agreement on the unusual steps that it now seems necessary to

Insurance Agent Accused Of Scamming Elderly Arrested In NC
Chattanooga Times Free Press (TN)
Kevin Miles, the 41-year-old insurance agent who allegedly scammed more than 30 people, is in custody, according to Catoosa County Sheriff's Office.
Miles was arrested by the Cherokee Indian Police Department in Cherokee, North Carolina.
Miles worked in the Tennessee Valley area as an independent insurance agent for Atlantic Coast Insurance Co. From June 2017 to July this year, he was working with Wilson Funeral Home, a family- owned funeral home that has locations in Fort Oglethorpe, Ringgold, Chickamauga and LaFayette, Georgia.
Sheriff Gary Sisk said the sheriff's office was alerted to Miles' behavior about two weeks ago and has found seven cases of theft by deception and exploitation of an elderly person. There are about 28 more victims, the sheriff believes.
Both of the charges are felonies due to the amount allegedly stolen.
Sisk said Tuesday afternoon that he doesn't know exactly how the Cherokee Indian Police Department found Miles or what steps the department took to find him.
Sisk did say during the initial news conference on Aug. 9 that the Catoosa County Sheriff's Office knew Miles was in the Cherokee area on July 30.
The detective on the case, Tim Busby, had been in the area and the Catoosa County Sheriff's Office notified the Cherokee Indian Police Department about the information they had. Sisk said that played a role in Miles arrest.
Sisk also added that Miles was seen at Harrah's Cherokee Hotel and Casino while in Cherokee.
As of Tuesday afternoon, Sisk said his department still had seven definitive cases but several people have come to the sheriff's office to visit about Miles and the case so more charges are on the horizon.
Miles was also still in Cherokee awaiting extradition back to Catoosa County.

Here! This red rose is for you?
What are Picture Sight Words™?
That's what makes these Picture Sight Words™ unique. As a dyslexia tutor for several years, I have worked extensively with children who struggle with reading and spelling. These specific picture cues have been tested and proven effective across many schools, as they allow the child to use their right-brain, visual strength to recall a picture in place of a letter.
These visual Picture Sight Words™ will help your child recognize (read) sight words faster. In addition, they are the first cards that also teach the child how to SPELL sight words (and if your child struggles with sight words, you know how tedious spelling them can be). The picture cue is related to shape of the tricky letter. Now when the child has to remember that letter, he can tap into his right-brain strength and recall the picture which will tell him what letter it is because it has the same shape. Unlike other picture cards, Picture Sight Word Cards® are not cluttered with confusing visuals. There is only ONE picture in the tricky letter, making it easier to recall. For the first time, the child can "draw" the word, and spelling sight words can become fun!
The 3 sets of Picture Sight Words™ are printed on high quality card stock with protective print coating and are attractive to look at. A sentence at the back of each card uses the sight word; this can be read aloud by the parent or tutor, thus helping the child understand the meaning of the word in context. The cards can be used alone or as part of any Orton-Gillingham or other Reading or Spelling Program. Kids love them, as do parents, teachers and tutors. They work especially well for right-brained learners and children with dyslexia. They also help emerging readers, since younger children who are just learning to read and spell enjoy the picture cues which keep them engaged.
One of the greatest advantages of these Picture Sight Words™ & Picture Homophones™ cards is that they can be used as a stand-alone program to teach how to read and spell sight words, but they can just as easily be incorporated into an existing Reading Program your child is in.
These sight word cards can be used along with any Orton-Gillingham-based program such as Barton, Wilson, etc., or any other reading & spelling program. The repetition provided in structured programs is excellent for dyslexic and other right-brained children.
But Picture Sight Words™ cards give the child something tangible to hold on to in addition to just the repetition, greatly reducing the time it takes to master spelling and reading of sight words. The picture cues embedded in the letter make all the difference.


WELLSTREAMS……… LIVING WATERS FOR THE JOURNEY IN FAITH BY SISTER LAURETTA….
St. Paul wrote to the Corinthians: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ…the God of all who encourages us…so that we might be able to encourage those who are in any affliction with the encouragement with which we are ourselves are encouraged by God." Notice, that Paul, in this short passage, uses the term encourage four times. It must be an important concept for him. It certainly is an important one throughout Scripture. And it should definitely be for us!
However, when life is tiring, when we are struggling, when our future is insecure, it is easy to become discouraged or to overlook and disregard the encouragement of God and others in our lives. Discouragement can creep up upon us all and we can become blind to the abundant comfort God offers us. The result–we harbor ingratitude for the blessings of yesterday, indifference to the opportunities of today and insecure regarding our strength for tomorrow. In quoting this passage of Paul we are reminded that Christ is our encouragement and offers us hope and peace in the knowledge that the Lord knows our troubles and has great concern for us.
Would that be our legacy? Paul talks in Corinthians about the power of encouragement. The Greek translation of encouragement was to "call to one's side, to comfort, to console, to strengthen, to inspire another with courage." The Greek word for encourage is the same one used for the name of Comforter in reference to the Holy Spirit. So when we encourage others, we show that the Spirit really dwells among us and it is the Spirit working in and through us. Max Lucado, author, speaker and artist, tells about his trip to the United Kingdom.
A castle stood in the center of a huge garden and in the garden was a maze – row after row of high hedges with one dead end leading to another. If you were successful in navigating the labyrinth you would reach the small door to the tall castle tower. When Max became lost in the maze he heard his daughter call down to him, "You'll be okay. Just back up and turn right." She was above in the tower with a better vantage point than he had. "Words of encouragement," he says, pointing out the power we have to encourage and guide another's direction. He tells his audiences that we can speak encouraging words that make people better and stronger in many ways.
There are, thankfully, some ways we might accomplish this. First, we need to express our thankfulness to others more frequently – for good service, for assistance given to us, for co-workers, for little kindnesses, for anyone who has been a positive factor in our daily lives. Encouragement is saying with love what a person needs to hear when he or she needs to hear it. Second, we need to make a personal investment in the interests and values of our friends, acquaintances and our loved ones more deliberately. By doing this, we tell them that what they value matters to us as much as what we value ourselves. Third, we need to listen better to the concerns and hardships of others and convince them that we really care. Give them our time to problem solve with them, laugh with them, weep with them. Listen to them!
It is important that we take to heart the words of St. Paul. As we live in the strength of God's encouragement, may we also be that comfort and support for our brothers and sisters. Let us allow God's Spirit, his presence and love flow through us and wash encouragement over those around us as we try to be God's hands and feet in this world. Maya Angelou said it so well. "People may forget what you said, people may forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel!" That's our job — to be that encouragement for the world!
