Rafa Cabrera-Bello hits a chip shot on the third hole during a practice round Monday at Augusta National Golf Club.

GUEST COLUMN: PART ONE: 'Icing down' the azaleas: A short history of Augusta National
Time and time again people have asked me to tell them if ice is used at the Augusta National Golf Club to delay the bloom time of the azaleas.
Most have asked me this question as soon as they learn that I had at one time worked on the nursery crew at this famous golf course. The question is usually asked with an aside, "Is this why the Augusta National is so beautiful with the azaleas blooming right at Masters time, and are they keeping this horticultural practice a secret?"
Until writing this I have kept quiet and not answered this question for anyone and have thus kept this secret. During my one year as an employee of this club with its beautiful course that was the brainchild of Georgia's Bobby Jones, the people who asked me knew that I certainly had the opportunity to obtain an accurate answer to their question, even though I would not tell them.
They were right about my being in a position to find out as my nursery work took me all over this course and even into the "cabins" used by the members of this exclusive club. All the azaleas on the entire course were met by me a number of times during that year in the regular day-to-day work of feeding, pruning, mulching and checking these plants.
Then there was the day that, with another member of the nursery crew, we fed almost every azalea on that entire 18-hole course! (The two of us did not feed any of the azaleas on the Par 3 course.) That day we spread almost a ton of plant food! So in my regular work at the National I got to know their azaleas quite well.
What I learned by questioning my fellow employees and my boss about the horticultural practices used allowed me to come to a good and what I believe is an accurate and truthful answer to give these curious folks. However, before letting you know what was learned about the use of ice, please allow me to share with you a little background about the "course that Bobby built." I will also give you a little of the history behind the plants that were selected for the course and the man with a Rome connection who did it. That way my answer will have more meaning.
The architect for this course was a team effort by Bobby Jones and a British man by the name of Dr. Alister MacKenzie, who had at one time been a practicing physician in his home country. This doctor gave up his medical practice for a most unusual reason — the game of golf was curing more of his high-strung executive patients than his medicines!
He is quoted as saying: "How frequently have I, with great difficulty, persuaded patients who were never off my doorstep to take up golf, and how rarely, if ever, I have ever seen them in my consulting room again."
After closing his practice, MacKenzie started designing golf courses in his native England and eventually all around the world. During his lifetime he was the architect and designer of more than 50 courses, including golf courses in Argentina, Ireland, Uruguay, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. The last course he worked on, to the best of my knowledge, was Augusta National. Of the many links he designed in the United States are the famous Cypress Point Club in Monterey, California, and Pasatiempo at Santa Cruz.
When Bobby Jones retired from golf in the 1930's after all his success as an amateur, he chose Augusta as the place where he wanted to construct probably what was his dream golf course. He said that it would be America's answer to the Old Course in Scotland where the game of golf began. Augusta was selected as the site rather than his hometown of Atlanta because in Augusta the milder climate allowed the golfers to have more days throughout the year to play the game.
The site for what would eventually become Augusta National had been first an indigo plantation in the 1800's and then the location of one of the most successful nurseries in the United States — the old Fruitland Nurseries. It was from the expertise of the owners of this business that the real beauty of this golf course began, not the architects.
The story of the man who made these selections, certainly with the assistance of his family, is interesting and demonstrates how so many pieces came together to make Augusta National the beautiful course that it is today. Back in the 1800's a family named Berckmans migrated from Belgium to the United States and settled in New Jersey. The father was trained as a horticulturist so the family started a nursery business. Realizing the advantages of moving to a warmer climate, Prosper Berckmans — one of the sons — undertook a trip through the southern United States to find a new site for the family business. He even came to Rome, probably attracted to our area because of the Belgium settlement here.
He eventually selected Augusta. What was called the Fruitlands Nurseries purchased land where Augusta National is now and the business truly prospered. Fruitlands became one of the most successful nurseries in the nation. They even added a landscape design service to their business. Prosper Berckmans designed and executed a landscape plan for both the Norton Home place — known as Valley View — outside Cartersville and was also responsible for the design and choice of the plants at Barnsley Gardens.
This is the first of a four part column series. Tommy Robins is a Rome native who has worked on the nursery crew at Augusta National Golf Club, home of The Masters. He owned a landscaping business but is now retired and resides in Cave Spring.

About the Carroll's Historic Home:
Literature for Life contributing author, Mary Lea Carroll, remembers vividly what sold her and her husband, Bill, on a 100-year-old Dutch Colonial when they were house-hunting in the Historic Highlands neighborhood of Pasadena.
"My husband is 6 foot 5, and he didn't have to duck anywhere in the house," she said. "It was love at first sight."
The Carrolls had lived in the Highlands for five years and wanted to stay there when they moved up to a larger house in 1992. "It's a wonderful neighborhood," said Bill Carroll, 44, partner in a motion picture advertising firm, "with nice families, older houses and beautiful trees."
The Carrolls home has five bedrooms and three baths in 4,000 square feet and was built in 1890 by David J. MacPherson, the civil engineer whose greatest achievement was the famous Mt. Lowe Scenic Railway. The trolley-and-cable car railway, which opened in 1895, ran six miles from Altadena to Mt. Lowe, 3,300 feet above in the San Gabriel Mountains. It closed in 1937.

Question Time Justice 28 January 2014
During Question Time the Minister of Justice answered question regarding animal cruelty, delays in the justice system, drugs and rural crime.
In the light of the recent horrific case of animal cruelty, Justice Minister David Ford was questioned by Robin Newton on the sentencing options available following convictions for animal cruelty. While pointing out that the Agriculture and Rural Development Minister is responsible for legislation regarding cruelty to animals, Mr Ford agreed that the recent example of cruelty is "abhorrent and to be totally condemned". As such he sees the sanctions set out in the 2011 Welfare of Animals Act as appropriate and assured that his department will play their part in upholding them. However Mr Newton viewed the seven custodial sentences resulting from the 124 convictions in the last seven years as not enough of a deterrent, fearing that punishments are being viewed as little more than "a slap on the wrist". The Minister agreed that there is a wide level of public concern and that the issue would be a pressing matter for the Lord Chief Justice in his sentencing guidelines.
Karen McKevitt then asked the Minister about procedures in place for dealing with prisoners found to be in possession of drugs. The Minister acknowledged that there is a problem within the prison system with drugs being smuggled in and with prescription medication being found in possession of prisoners not entitled to it. Procedures such as passive drugs dogs, cell searches and 'supervised swallowing' are in place to help the problem and the Health and Social Care Trust is on hand to offer support. Any prisoners found in possession of drugs are referred to the police for disciplinary action.
The Minister was also questioned on the impact the recent Haass proposals will have for his department. Mr Ford highlighted that the issues of the past have proved toxic in forming trust in the justice system, saying that "we simply cannot afford not to deal with our past". The Minister also agreed with Kieran McCarthy on the importance of justice for victims of the past concluding that it is a "vital necessity on moral grounds". When pressed on his view of the final Haass proposals document the Minister feels that it is "close to what is required" and confirmed his commitment to making sure any agreed proposals are successfully implemented. He also pointed out that both the British and Irish Governments will be required to step up when it comes to funding the budget that will be required to ensure that the past is positively dealt with.
During topical questions the main topic was the Minister's decision to change the job criteria for the new Chief Constable. He also answered questions on the pipe bomb attacks in Portglenone and Ahoghill and on the compensation payments to police officers who suffered from hearing loss.

The Indian River High School football team will face one of their toughest tests since the start of the season this Friday night, when No. 1-ranked Woodbridge comes to town for what will be the Indians' Homecoming game.
The 6-0 Blue Raiders are 2-0 in the Henlopen South and coming off their third straight shutout and a 54-0 win over Seaford (1-5, 0-3) on Friday, Oct. 14.
This year, they're again led under center by sophomore quarterback Troy Haynes. The 5-foot-10, 160-pound signal-caller managed touchdowns through the air and on the ground last year in what was the Blue Raiders' own Homecoming game, during a 34-0 win over the Indians after the game had gone into halftime scoreless.
First-Team All-Conference running back Terrique Reddick has again been the Blue Raiders' bell cow for his senior campaign, joined by senior running back Anwain Holden, who poses a threat as a return man as well, and recently returned a 73-yard kick for a touchdown against Lake Forest on Monday, Oct. 3.
Both Reddick and Holden also play in the Blue Raiders' secondary.
Defensively, Woodbridge has allowed only 19 points this season, posting shutouts against Polytech, Lake Forest, St. John Paul Catholic and Seaford.
The defensive line is anchored by senior defensive tackle and Florida transfer Brian Ireland, who at 6-foot-2, 280 pounds, could spell trouble for the Indians' offensive line, along with senior defensive tackle and 2015 First-Team selection Leah Styles.
The line is bookended by 2015 First-Team defensive end Shymere Vessels, back for his senior campaign, and senior defensive end and 2015 Second-Team selection Blaize Rayford, who will also see action at tight end.
While IR head coach Phil Townsend said his squad needs to play some of their best ball for an upset, he was also encouraged that his squad should be getting back to full health for the game.
Senior linebacker Gianni Gottschalk is scheduled to return for the matchup and should be a key factor in keeping the running game at bay, after sitting out last week against Milford. Gottschalk will strengthen the linebacking core led by senior Joey Ciriello, coming off an 11-tackle, two-sack performance, senior linebacker Zion Howard, racking up nine tackles in the middle, and sophomore Jacob Anderson, recording his first career interception.
The team is also scheduled to return freshman quarterback Jalen Snead and running back Kevin Custis, with Custis back in the secondary at corner.
Senior running back George Martin saw the lion's share of the carries last week, going for 111 yards and a touchdown, on 19 carries, and is currently averaging more than 100 rushing yards per game. Anderson also got into the backfield mix against the Bucs, going for 26 yards on seven carries.
The game is scheduled for a 7 p.m. kickoff on Friday, Oct. 21, at Indian River High School's football stadium. Homecoming festivities will be held at halftime.


Military.com and Monster.com have ranked cities based on job availability and opportunity. Lawton turned up at number 6 on that list last week.
I think we are usually shocked when we turn up on a national list -- and it's for something good (hello teen pregnancy, STD's and more). It's worth the reminder if you live and work here -- and it's a great excuse to recruit people to our area.
Lawton's ranking is due to several factors. Military.com reports that Lawton is a cheaper-than-average place to live with lots of opportunities in a variety of industry. We have a city that has lots of industrial opportunities, healthcare jobs and, of course, military and contracting.
Lawton has a job growth of 85% -- which means we're looking to grow for years to come!
So, if we are so great . . . who beat us?
Champaign, Il was at number five due to their tech boom. Des Moines, IA is a cheap place to live with cost of living 20% under average. Manchester, NH is big with healthcare and the number one spot went to Cheyenne, WY with an unemployment rate of under 4.2%. Of course -- you would have to live in remote WY or snowy NH to take advantage of the top two spots.


For the exhibition Freeing Architecture, conceived specifically for the Fondation Cartier, Ishigami re- veals twenty of his architectural projects in Asia and in Europe. These projects will be presented through a series of large-scale models, accompanied by films and drawings, which document their different stages of conception and construction. In dialogue with Jean Nouvel's iconic building, this event is also the first large-scale solo-show that the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain has devoted to an architect.
In Freeing Architecture, Ishigami elaborates upon his most recent research into function, form, scale and the environment in architecture, thereby revealing his vision for the future of the field. Through over 40 models, as well as numerous films and drawings, the exhibition presents twenty projects from their genesis to the complex process of their realization.

Everything you need to know about the largest planet in the solar system
July 19, 2022 by sildenafilandtadalafil.com
Space has always interested people. This curiosity has increased as technology has improved. Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar system, and its natural satellites are of particular interest to many scientists.
In human history, Jupiter already has a significant importance and its name bears witness to it. Actually, they are The Romans who baptized him Thus, with reference to God is Jupiter. Among the Greeks, it would be equivalent to King of Gods, Zeus. It is interesting to note that at that time, neither the Romans nor the Greeks knew the magnitude of the planet. Nevertheless, the Romans appointed him king of the gods.
Largest planet, a minor celestial body
As a result, Jupiter The largest planet in the solar system. However, there is Smaller than the Sun whose mass 99.8% of the mass of this planetary system. In fact, stars in the universe may even be hundreds of times larger than our own. Betelgeuse (α Orionis), for example, has A radius 750 times that of our star.
And just to compare planets, Jupiter has a rival in the Milky Way. This is an exoplanet entitled to Thirteen times the mass of our gas giant. His name is Hall OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb and about 20,000 light-years from the blue planet.
however, Jupiter is Bigger than the other seven planets solar system. He even got a nickname "Queen of the Planet".
As a reminder, the solar system consists of one star and eight planets. In fact, if astronomers consider Pluto Like a planet, it was engaged The location of dwarf planets in 2006. Pluto was then the smallest planet, but now it is Wednesday.
A few statistics to remember about Jupiter
The planet has a queen Mean diameter is 142,984 km, Which is the eleventh quality of the world. As for its volume, it is Can hold 1,300 planets The same size as our planet. Finally, Its mass is about 318 times that of Earth. In concrete terms, it is 2.5 times heavier than the other seven planets combined.
Also average distance Between Jupiter and Sun is 778 million km. In comparison, Earth averages 150 million km (astronomical unit or AU) of the Sun. Because of this distance, the light It takes the end 43 minutes to reach the surface of Jupiter
Speaking of time, An adjacent day (one day and one night) lasts on Jupiter 9 hours 55 minutes. nevertheless, a year on the planet Lasts about twelve Earth years. More precisely, it completes one complete revolution around the Sun in 4,333 Earth days.
Formation of the largest planets
As a reminder, there are two main types of planets: telluric and airy. Telluric planets Composed of various elements and usually solid, the world an example Conversely, Gaseous planetsThey consist mainly of gas, This is the case with Jupiter.
It is written Mostly dihydrogen (85%) and Helium (13%). Apart from these gases, it contains oxygen, neon, hydrogen sulphide, carbon and ethane. Apart from that it creates its composition as well as its shapeIt belongs to the category of gas giants.
Therefore, there is no Jupiter No hard surface. in place, cloud band And strong wind Act as a surface.
In addition, it should be noted that gas Gas giants present not identical. Contrary to popular belief, Gas overlap to form several levels.
Despite its features, experts still believe Jupiter has a rocky core. Its mass would be about ten or twelve times that of Earth.
The largest planet and its characteristics
First, there is its location. starting from the sun, Jupiter is in fifth placeRight after Mars, Earth, Venus and Mercury. Moreover, apart from being closest to the Sun, Mercury is also the smallest planet solar system
Next, the gas giant presents character work. A priori, these spots would be the result of gas layers However, it is Especially the rotational speed The meteorite growth of the planet is the main cause. The fast wind And Huge temperature fluctuations It also has an effect on the color of Jupiter.
Specifically, the largest planet in the system rotates on its axis almost 45,000 km/h at the equator. Although the blue planet has a rotation speed of 1,700 km/hr. So, despite its size, one sidereal day on Jupiter is worth 10 Earth hours.
Finally, These are many features favorable Great red spot appearance, a specificity of Jupiter. This task is actually a huge storm. The phenomenon is aptly named because it exists 12,000 km wide And 15,000 km long. This storm can therefore contain the volume of the Earth which is about 14,000 km in diameter.
About the Great Red Spot: We see it shrinking for about forty years.
Michael Le Bars
In recent years, scientists have noticed a decrease in the size of the Great Red Spot. However, Jupiter can keep this job permanently. At least that's what Michel Le Bars, CNRS director of the Out-of-Equilibrium Phenomena (IRHE) research institute, thinks.
Does Jupiter support life?
This is a good question from the atmosphere Jupiter contains water and oxygen. Unfortunately, water is not in a liquid form. According to astronomers, it is present in gaseous state And difficult (ice crystals) in the atmosphere of a gas giant.
The Juno space probe In 2016, the queen of the planet was able to study and determine the amount of water present in its atmosphere. space exploration Determined that water would represent 0.25% of all the gases of Jupiter.
Not one, but more than sixty moons
A In the early 1600sAn astronomer named Galileo observed Jupiter Through his astronomical telescope. It was during this observation that he noticed four moons Those who have been nicknamed Galilean satellites. Today, these moons are known as the most influential of the planetary queens. They are: Callisto, Europa, Ganymede and Io:
Callisto there is Especially old surfaces With many craters.

Hi, everybody. Today we're back in Kansas to learn the story of Delia Rich Miracle, a woman who ran a photography studio in Emporia, Kansas, in the 1880s and early 1890s. Her story is intriguing not just for her own accomplishments, but also for the unusual twist that brings her in touch with a woman accused of poisoning.
But first, let's talk about Delia Rich. But first, let's focus on the story of Delia Rich, the photographer in Emporia Kansas.
Actually, when she was doing photography, she billed herself as D.B. Rich — that's the initials, letter "D" and the letter "B" Rich. Her first name at that time was "Delia," but later in life, she actually reverts back to using her full first name, which was Cordelia.
Now Cordelia Rich, was one of eight children born to a Quaker family in Indiana. In the 1850s, the family moves to Kansas — at first Lawrence, and then after a couple of years, they wind up in Emporia, Kansas.
Now it's there that a young teenage Cordelia Rich asked her mother for a new calico dress. But, as but as she later explained, her mother said that there wasn't money.
I mean, the family had arrived in Emporia, Kansas, with just $1 in their pocket.
So Delia is encouraged by her mother to go out and get a job if she wants to get a new Calico dress.
Cordelia takes herself off to the local photographer, a man by the name of Page., and asks to be hired as his apprentice.
Now, Mr. Paige had not intended to hire a girl for this position. And he tells her initially that she's going to have to work for free for 3 months in order to prove herself.
But fate intervenes when a visiting photographer, who's in the store, suggests to Mr. Page that he hire Cordelia Rich, to be his assistant because she looks "strong, healthy and intelligent."
Fast forward a few years and Delia Rich, as she's now known, is the assistant to Mr. Page, and she's billed as that in the newspapers, and also in the directory for Emporia, Kansas at that time.
She's advertising in the newspapers, as we seen with so many photographers in that period. She's advertising tintyped. She's advertising specials on cabinet cards. She advertises at one point that her specialty is baby pictures.
So she's really going strong as a photographer, and we can track her in the newspapers and her career right up until 1892, specifically September of 1892, when she sells her studio. Why? Well, she's about to get married.
A man in town named John L. Miracle recently has lost his wife, and so, in October of 1892, John L. Miracle marries Delia B. Rich.
Interestingly, in 1880, although she is working for Mr. Page at the studio (and she has been for a few years at that point), she's still living at home with her parents, and it doesn't list an occupation [for her] in the census.
But any case, Delia Rich, or as she's professionally known, D.B. Rich, is having success working for Mr. Page.
But then …. another photography studio that was run by two gentlemen … well, that studio is going to undergo some changes when one of the gentlemen leaves town.
Delia, who has saved up her money working for Mr. Page … she's got the $300 necessary to buy into the studio run by a Mr. Waite. Mr. Waite, and Delia Rich — running the studio of Waite and Rich, are very successful.
And after a couple of years, when another studio [in Emporia] comes open, Mr. Waite encourages Delia to buy that other studio, so that they can basically not have competition, because they're working well together.
So she does open a new studio on her own, and bills it as "D. B. Rich & Co."
A couple years later, Mr. Waite retires, and D.B. Rich buys out his portion of the studio they have been running together.
So D.B. Rich has really settled in Emporia and been very successful for about 10 years at this point, running a studio all on her own now, once Mr. Wade has retired.
After their marriage, Delia B. Rich gives up her studio. [She and her husband] seem to go into business, maybe doing groceries for a while, maybe you're running little store, maybe working for others. It's not exactly clear from the newspaper clippings that we found what exactly they're doing.
In the in the 1895 census, as well as the 1900 census, they're both working [as clerks], but neither in a [photography] studio.
It's just interesting to see that throughout the early 1900s D.B. Rich is working with her husband [and not as a photographer].
And then when her husband becomes ill, she actually is not working for herself, but working to support the family another way..
John L. Miracle sadly dies in 1910.
And after that, Mrs. D.B. Miracle shows up in the newspapers because she's very prominent in town.
She's active at several organizations.
It even turns out that one point where she wins the raffle for a new gold watch at the jeweler's!
But she's also doing a lot of good works.
Howevr, she's also doing photography again — apparently either because she needs the money or because she's just really interested in photography again — she turns up in the 1920 census working for another photographer as a retoucher.
The retouching is something she'd actually learned back when she was working for Mr. Page and his gallery back in the late 1870s and early 1880s. That's the kind of work that she later describes as the thing that she did the most of in those early days.
Now when I say she "describes this", we have the advantage of having a big interview with Delia published in the newspaper in 1928.
I love the fact that in 1928, the newspaper, The Emporia Gazette, decided to interview, Mrs. Cornelia B. Rich Miracle about her career as a photographer.
She hadn't been a photographer running a studio for many years at that point, but she was still active, as I said in 1920, when she's in the census actually working as a retoucher for someone else.
So what I love about this interview is that Mrs. Miracle, as she's known, then, describes some of the aspects of working in a photo gallery in the 1870s and 1880s. describing some of the processes of the photography itself, and also things that she did, and how she ran a business at that time.
I want to just read you from this article, little bits and pieces.
Now, the first anecdote is from when she started working in Page's photograph gallery, and she was assigned as an apprentice to do a very important job.
Let me explain by just quoting from the article.
"One errand the new apprentice did every morning was to go to the home of Mrs. Tyler Johnson, 5th and Merchant, where each day she bought a fresh egg for five cents. With the egg, albumen was made fresh every day to coat the glass for the wet plate process in making pictures. Tintypes were also made in the Page gallery, 4 on a plate, and on these, Mrs. Miracle got her first lessons in photography. With a small brush she was taught to apply the red coloring — like rouge — to the cheeks and lips of the tintype pictures, much as girls and women today apply it.
Next, she learned to spread varnish over the rouge, and it was something of an art to hold the tintypes at the exact angle by which the varnish was prevented from streaking the faces. Then the pictures were cut apart and put into paper cases."
Let me just stop it there for a moment. It's really interesting to hear somebody talking about that wet plate process. I talked about it a little bit back in the episode about Elizabeth Withington, who figured out how to do wet plate photography out in the field without a portable darkroom wagon.
Mrs. Miracle (who was at that time, of course, known as Miss Rich") was working as the apprentice and learning how to do it by first just learning how to coat those wet plates with the necessary materials, including the egg, to allow the wet plate to be used for photography.
Re that description of her with the small brush applying the rouge … you can go into antique stores and actually see some of the tintypes with that kind of rouge and that sort of painting applied on [the tintype]. That was typical of what's called retouching work.
And when I said that Mrs. Miracle became a retoucher for another photography gallery around 1920, that's the kind of work she would have been doing. Except because the photography technology has changed at that point, she was no longer working with tintypes, but with more paper type of photos.
Let me read you a little bit more about what happened later in photography. Again, quoting from that 1928 article …
"Later," Mrs. Miracle continued, "came the dry plate process, and then we did not have to coat our plates every day. The dry plate came ready to use, done up in half-dozen and dozen packages. So we began using Eastman dry plates. I was fascinated with the business and thought of little else.
"My mother said all I knew was the photography gallery, and I lost all the slight interest I once had in washing dishes and making beds. I especially enjoyed making baby pictures and wedding pictures. Now there are grandparents today whose baby pictures I made.
" I stayed at the Pate gallery 8 years and was receiving $3 a week when I quit. Each year I had got a 50 cent or $1 a week raise. I had saved money had taken four shares and Howard Dunlap's Loan Association. And when I began earning $3 a week, I put $1 in the loan each week. At the end of eight years, I had saved $300 I decided to buy into the weight gallery. As Mr. Willett one of the owners was offering his half interest for $700. I drew my $400 out and paid it on the business. And for the remainder I gave my note with payments to be made each month by sacrifice and self denial. I had that $400 paid at the end of the first year. I made far more than $8 a week, and my self denial paid big returns. Mr. Waite was an excellent photographer. He had come here from Hartford, Connecticut, and he took great pains in teaching me my work improve rapidly, especially in retouching.
I am really intrigued by Mrs. Miracle's description of her introduction to the business and how she prospered, and was able to save money and buy an interest in an actual gallery, and leave Pages gallery where she was an assistant. It gives us a glimpse into how much people were making. Even as an assistant she was making $3 a week — well, that was the most she was making, but she was able to save $1 a week. I think she was probably still living with her parents at that time.
But she's prospering as a photographer, and when she gets a chance, after saving her money, she buys into a business.
And then she's actually able to pay off the loan that she takes out in less than a year, because she is so successful.
I also like that this article gives us a glimpse into this Mr. Waite, who was the photographer who had had another partner, and who then has Miss Rich buy into his business. He is assisting her and helping her become successful.
He actually went must have been very impressed with her because of what happens next. Let me just read you a little more from that article in 1928. Mrs. miracle is still explaining about her business. And she says …
"When the new gallery was built in the Jay Opera House block, corner of 5th and Commercial over the Palace clothing store, Mr Waite suggested that I rent the new gallery and run a business of my own, thus keeping out undesirable competition. Already there were four galleries inEmporia: Page's Waite's, Stones, and Hicock's; mine made the fifth. "
So I think it's really interesting that Waite thought enough of her skills that she could run a studio on her own. She goes on [in the article] to remenisce about the first wedding picture she took. She really rememberes about the people she took the pictures of. Which is interesting – I mean, Emporia is a small town in Kansas, but not super small, but big enough to support five photography galleries there in the 1880s. But she remembers the people that she took pictures of and she says that she sees grandparents that she took pictures of when they were children. I mean, Emporia is a small town in Kansas, but not super small, and but big enough to support five photography galleries there in the 1880s. But she remembers the people that she took pictures of and she says that she sees grandparents that she took pictures of when they were children.
It's rare that there are these interviews with these early women photographers where they are reminiscing about their career. And so as a real treat to run across this interview with Mrs. Delia Rich Miracle in December of 1928, where she is looking back at her career.
Mrs. Miracle goes on to live another eight years. She dies in Emporia, Kansas in 1936. Her photography career was at least from 1877 to 1892.
And it's hard to say exactly how often she was working as a retoucher after her marriage. Certainly she doesn't show up in the directories as ever having a profession even after her husband dies. But we do see her in the census in 1920 as a retoucher.
Alright, so that's the story of Mrs. Cordelia B. Rich Miracle.
But here's the thing … in that interview in 1928, where Mrs. Miracle remembers so many of the people she took photos, she does not mention a woman who was a notorious woman in Kansas around 1885.
And Miss Rich was actually somewhat .. I wouldn't say notorious… but certainly very well known for having taken a picture of this notorious woman.
Now, the woman who was the subject of that photo was woman named Minnie Walkup. I mentioned Minnie Walkup last time, because Minnie Walkup met Frankie Morris, the subject of the last podcast episode, when the two of them were introduced to each other in court during the Minnie Walkup's trial.
Minnie Walkup was married to the Mayor of Emporia, who was 30 years her senior. Minnie and the mayor get married after … well, we'll call it a whirlwind romance in New Orleans where Minnie was from.
Minnie and her husband come back to Emporia [in summer of 1885] and less than a month later her husband is dead from arsenic poisoning. And Minnie, who is 16 at the time, is accused of his murder.
So Frankie Morris had had a lawyer who goes to the trial in Emporia to be the lawyer for Minnie Walkup. That lawyer brings Frankie Morris to meet Minnie Walkup during Minnie's trial. This is, as I mentioned last time, a cause celeb in the newspapers.
When Frankie Morris and Minnie Walkup n Emporia in September of 1885, Frankie Morries had just had her convinction overturned, and she was facing a new trial around November – December of that year.
But while she's out on bail in September, her lawyer, who was also Minnie Walkup's layer, brings Frankie to Emporia to meet and chat with Minnie.
Now Minine Walkup, she's accused of the arsenic poisoning of her husband. I hesitated last time to say that Frankie Morris' trial was really the "trial of the century", even though it is covered in all the papers in the summer of 1885. But it was quickly pushed to the background, because now we had a very pretty 16 year-old widow, who was accused of murdering her 49 year old husband. That was the trial of the century! They didn't leave any stone unturned to write up within a short period of time. I mean, the husband dies in August of 1885. Minnie is arrested in September of 1885. The trial starts and continues until November of 1885. So it's a period of just a couple of months.
But there are headlines in the papers, including transcripts of the testimony. There are accusations of prostitution, because the defense claims that Mr. Walkup, who had [a reputation] as an upstanding citizen in Emporia, well, the defense claims that he actually had had a secret life where he was going to houses of ill repute in New Orleans, where he would stay in a boarding house, which was not a house of ill repute, of course, since that's where he met Minnie's mother who ran the boarding house. And Minie was just this young, innocent thing, of course.
And the Mayor fell in love with Minnie and then, just, you know, sparks flew, they got married.
And then it was just a tragic, tragic coincidence that he happened to die of arsenic poisoning a month after they got married.
OK, let me just read you one of the headlines before the trial started: " Who murdered Walkup?" That's the headline in the Kansas Daily Republic on August 26, 1885. And so [the newspaper] speculates that maybe it was this beautiful young woman who was so recently made his wife … or was it the jealous Negress in Topeka, Kansas, upon whom he had formerly bestowed his favors?
And then headlines claim that her relatives are coming to her defense … or the dead husband's relatives are trying to get Minnie hanged for murder. It just goes on and on. The twists and turns are really amazing.
There's been a book recently written about this. It's called The Adventuress: Murder, Blackmail and Confidence Bames in the Gilded Age. It's by a woman named Virginia A McConnell, and I highly recommend it because it is a really remarkable story with all the twists and turns in the Minnie Walkup case.
Now, ultimately, Minnie Walkup takes the stand. She is a very pretty young woman, and the jury is swayed by how vulnerable and young she seems.
So, despite evidence which the prosecution feels really makes their case, things like —she actually bought strychnine over the summer, month before her husband died, and her husband became sick the next day from strychnine poisoning. Just coincidence(?!) and — she was seen buying arsenic, and her husband died of arsenic poisoning. But again, just coincidence (?!).
Despite that evidence, in the end, the jury votes that she is not guilty. So she is acquitted of everything. And again, the papers just have a field day.
Now there are some papers in Kansas who were fervently her supporters, and there are some papers who are fervently not her supporters. And Virginia McConnell's book lays that all out and tells you more about all the ins and outs of the coverage of this trial.
Minnie is acquitted in November, and the next day she wants to get her picture taken. Now, her detractors say it's because she wants to keep her name in the paper, since she likes publicity and that kind of thing. Her defenders say no, she just wanted to get her picture taken to send her her supporters so that they would see how well she was doing.
Let me just read you a passage from Virginia McConnell's book. This is describing the events after the acquittal:
The next day Minnie and the, Jays father and daughter, drove downtown with Minnie dressed up in a "Blue serge dress with scarlet trimmings and a white veil over her small round hat (no widows weeds for her!), and called on some of the people who had remained loyal to her, and had her portrait taken at Delia Rich's studio. She ordered two dozen herself and told Delia she could make copies available for anyone who wanted them. When people stared at her, she stared right back.
So this mention of Minnie Walkup getting her picture taken at Delia Rich's studio was my first introduction to the incredible tale of Minnie Walkup. I mean, my husband and I had bought a cabinet card by D.B. Rich of a young man. And it was while researching D.B. Rich, the photographer in Emporia, Kansas, that we stumbled on this story about Minnie Walkup and the photo that D. B. Rich had taken of her..
There was actually a notice in the newspaper after that picture is taken in November of 1885. It's a little notice taken out by Delia B. Rich & Co, which was the name of D. B. Rich's studio during this period. The notice in the newspaper reads:
To the editor: You and others published a statement that Mrs. Walkup was to receive a royalty upon all the photographs of her that were sold. Mrs. Walkup ordered two dozen photographs for herself, which she paid for, and then at my solicitation, and for my benefit only kindly consented to my furnishing them any pictures that might be required. Please, in justice to the lady, publish this statement. Signed, Delia B. Rich & Co.
And the phrase "for my benefit only" is emphasized in italics in the notice.
So, it's really intriguing. I mean, apparently, D.B. Rich's studio was actually selling this photograph of Minnie Walkup for profit, like selling a celebrity photo. But in this case, the celebrity was the recently acquitted young widow of the former mayor of Emporia.
Now, after all this happens, anyone who is actually supporting Minnie Walkup started to turn against her. I'm going to refer you to Virginia McConnell's book about the Minnie Walkup case, because it's just hard to summarize all the twists and turns in court,… including the moment a couple months later, when Minnie Walkup walk up claims to be pregnant with her late husband's child [spoiler alert – she's not!]
But one of the interesting things about these trials in the 1800s is that they're in such a compressed time frame. They don't wait years to have the trial. They happen right away.
Again, Mr. Walkup died in August of 1885. And so, Minnie Walkup claiming that she's pregnant in December, and it's by her husband — well, that initially is seen as "maybe yes, maybe no". But ultimately, people are very suspicious. And it's just incredible what happens … people come out of the woodwork saying that they've actually slept with her during the trial, when they snuck into the jail. You get the idea.
Now, one of the reasons I think Virginia McConnell actually wrote about Minnie Walkup is because her story continues after Emporia … she ultimately is married several more times. And, tragically (?!), all of her husbands seem to die of poisoning…. Just coincidentally (?!).
She's known in some circles as the black widow of Kansas.
Anyway, Minnie Walkup was not a photographer. But she had this intriguing intersection with Delia B. Rich, who was a photographer, and a very successful photographer, starting from a young age as a teenager, and working up into her 30s when she gets married and gives up photography, or at least gives up her studio, but seems to always keep her hand in doing retouching. The odd coincidence of running across Minnie Walkup in the story of Delia B. Rich, and then running across Frankie Morris and her photography career under her married name of Mrs. FM hear and then her own trial for poisoning … well, it was just too good to pass up to bring you these two stories back to back.
I really want to thank the Lyon County Historical Society Museum for giving me permission to bring you that picture of Minnie Walkup taken by Delia B. Rich & Co. It was exciting to discover the actual photograph there and to see it in the Lyon County Museum. I really want to thank the wonderful people at the museum for also working with me to try to find as much as we could in the directories and other newspaper clippings about both Minnie Walkup and Delia B. Rich, and also John Miracle, Delia B. Rich's husband.
I'll put the links to the Lyon County Historical museum's website, as well as a link for The Adventuress by Virginia A. McConnell, in the episode notes for this episode, which, as always, will be on my website at p3photographers.net. If you have any questions about any of the people I talked about today, or anyone else here on the podcast, drop me an email at podcast at p3photographers.net.
And remember, you can always follow Photographs, Pistols & Parasols on Facebook, at facebook.com/p3 photographers.
Well, that's it for today about Delia B. Rich and her connection to the notorious Minnie Walkup. And also, of course, the connection to Frankie Morris, aka Mrs. FM Hurd and her poisoning tale in the last episode.
Next time, I can't promise to bring you another story about a poisoning … but I can promise another intriguing story about another early women photographer.
But until next time, I'm Lee and this is Photographs, Pistols & Parasols.

Activision Blizzard Leadership Reportedly Silent About Requests to Meet Striking Workers
It seems like Activision Blizzard Recently it has been in the news for controversies more often, whether because of its treatment of activists or because of problems with its video games. Those two things get complicated as Activision employees report claims that the company's brass failed to meet with its QA testers who went on strike.
Activision employees spoke in reverse anonymity about the lack of communication with their striking Raven Software QA testers. These employees have said that the company has not opened any lines of communication to resolve any issues related to the group's walkout, even as Activision claims it is working to resolve the issues. Used to be. Activision management apparently only talked amongst themselves and the recent statement appears to be another round of public word-of-mouth service.
Employees cited "radio silence" from Activision management as "something we expected, but were still disappointed to see."

Євге́н Па́влович Гребі́нка ( , Убіжище, Пирятинський повіт, Полтавська губернія, Російська імперія — , Санкт-Петербург, Російська імперія) — український письменник, байкар, педагог, видавець. Старший брат архітектора Миколи Гребінки.

Життєпис
Народився 2 лютого 1812 року на хуторі Убіжище Гребінківського на Полтавщині (нині — село Мар'янівка) в сім'ї відставного штабсротмістра Павла Івановича Гребінки та його другої дружини Надії Іванівни Чайковської.

Початкову освіту здобув у домашніх умовах. У 1825—1831 роках навчався у Ніжинській гімназії вищих наук. У гімназії почав писати вірші. 1827 року написав драматичний твір для самодіяльного театру «В чужие сани не садись».

У 1829 році почав працювати над перекладом на українську мову поеми Олександра Пушкіна «Полтава». Брав участь у виданні рукописних журналів, складених із учнівських творів Миколи Гоголя, Нестора Кукольника, Миколи Прокоповича, Г. Гребінки. 1831 року закінчив гімназію. Того ж 1831 року на сторінках «Украинского альманаха» в Харкові під псевдонімом Євген Гребенкин побачив світ його перший друкований твір — вірш .

У вересні 1831 року повітове дворянство відрядило оберофіцера Гребінку до 8-го резервного Малоросійського полку, сформованого для придушення польського повстання, але полк з Пирятина не вийшов, і у вересні, після поразки повстанців у Варшаві, Гребінка вийшов у відставку.

1834 року Гребінка переїхав до Санкт-Петербурга, де працював як чиновник, а з 1838 року став викладати російську словесність у військових училищах. Восени вийшла його збірка «Малороссийские приказки», до неї ввійшли переважно байки, а також кілька ліричних віршів, які вже були виразно романтичні за стилем. У 1836 році вийшов переклад поеми Олександра Пушкіна «Полтава» українською мовою. Поруч із творами рідною мовою Гребінка багато писав російською. Це була єдина можливість утвердитися в петербурзькому літературному середовищі. Романтичні вірші поета відразу набули неабиякого розголосу. Його «Очи черные…» та «Помню, я еще молодушкой была…» стали російськими народними романсами.

У червні 1835 року Іван Сошенко познайомив Гребінку з Тарасом Шевченком.

З 1837 року працює вчителем російської мови у Дворянському полку. Бере участь в організації викупу Тараса Шевченка з кріпацтва, збирає твори українською мовою й клопочеться про випуск їх у додатках до журналу «Отечественные записки». Одержавши відмову, із зібраних для додатків матеріалів укладає альманах «Ластівка», який вийшов 27 квітня 1841 року.

1840 року Гребінка допоміг Шевченкові у виданні «Кобзаря». Письменник заохочував Шевченка до поетичної творчості, обіцяючи видати вірші. 1839 року до Петербурга з України приїхав П. І. Мартос, якого Гребінка познайомив з Шевченком і його творами, які, мовляв, можна було б видавати, та немає грошей. Мартос взявся фінансувати видання. Таким чином з'явився на світ 1840 року Шевченків «Кобзар» невеличкою книжечкою, до якого були вміщені «Думи мої», «Перебендя», «Катерина», «Тополя», «На що мені чорні брови», «До Основ'яненка», «Іван Підкова» і «Тарасова ніч».

Того ж 1840 року в журналі «Отечественные записки» вийшла Гребінчина повість «Записки студента», а в «Утренней заре» — повість «Кулик».

1842 року пише повість «Сеня».

У 1843 році Гребінка відвідав Україну, був у Харкові, разом з Шевченком побував у маєтку Тетяни Волховської в селі Мойсівка. Того ж року в журналі «Отечественные записки» надруковано роман «Чайковський» з епіграфами, взятими із Шевченкових творів.

1844 року Гребінка одружився з Марією Василівною Ростенберг († 15 грудня 1894 р.), у шлюбі з якою у них народилася донька Надія (в заміжжі Базилевська). Того ж року вийшов його роман «Доктор».

1845 року познайомився з Пантелеймоном Кулішем, написав нарис «Петербургская сторона».

У 1847 році відкрив своїм коштом у селі Рудці Лубенського повіту на Полтавщині парафіяльне училище для селянських дітей. Того ж року вийшли повість «Заборов» та «Приключения синей ассигнации». З 1846 року Гребінка почав видавати зібрання своїх прозових творів. До кінця 1848 року він видав вісім томів. Помер Гребінка 3 грудня 1848 року від туберкульозу в Петербурзі. Тіло його перевезли в Убіжище, де й поховали 13 січня 1849 року в сімейному склепі.

Творчість

Українське суспільство у 1820—1830-х роках, коли зростав талант Євгена Гребінки, розвивалося в умовах загострення суспільно-політичних відносин, зростання ліберальних і радикальних настроїв. Після наполеонівської війни 1812 року, коли багато жителів Росії й України ознайомилися з життям Європи та порівняли його зі своїм середньовічним кріпацтвом, почали виникати таємні політичні товариства, з яких 14 грудня 1825 виросло декабристське повстання в Петербурзі. 28 грудня це повстання відбулося в Україні, під Васильковом, де збунтувався піхотний полк, загітований декабристами. Новий спалах національної самосвідомості після придушення декабристського руху відбувся під час польського повстання 1831 року, яке знайшло жвавий відгук у середовищі радикально настроєного українського громадянства. Прояви українського національного відродження, зініційовані польським визвольним антиросійським рухом, ширилися на Лівобережній Україні.

Водночас на Правобережній Україні, на колишніх українських землях Польщі, розвиток національної самосвідомості відбувався під впливом української школи польських письменників, найяскравішими представниками якої були Северин Гощинський, Богдан Залеський, Антоній Мальчевський, Юліуш Словацький, Тимко Падура. У ті часи починали свою діяльність Микола Костомаров, Пантелеймон Куліш, Микола Гулак, Опанас Маркович. Уже було видано славнозвісний збірник українських пісень Михайла Максимовича. Надзвичайною популярністю користувалася «Енеїда» Івана Котляревського, яка започаткувала нову українську літературу, писану живою народною мовою. Ці прояви національного відродження в часи царювання Миколи І викликали непримиренну ворожість. Царизм в усіх проявах національного життя вбачав сепаратизм і вживав заходів щодо остаточної асиміляції українських провінцій.

У таких умовах виник так званий романтичний напрям української літератури дошевченківського періоду, яка живилася подіями народного життя й надихалася ідеями національного відродження. Євген Гребінка, як і багато хто в українській, російській та польській літературі, вдавався в умовах миколаївської реакції до жанру байки, яка мала в Україні давні традиції й досягла найвищого рівня у XVIII столітті в «Баснях Харьковских» Григорія Сковороди та в російських байках Івана Крилова. Гребінка творчо переосмислив здобутки попередників у жанрі байки й надав їм ширшого жанрового звучання, ввівши в них українські реалії та думки, що відображають світогляд українського селянина.

У байках Гребінки відбито соціальні суперечності тогочасної дійсності. Езопівською, сповненою алегорій мовою, він, бачачи соціальну й національну несправедливість тогочасної царської Росії, наважувався говорити сувору і сміливу правду. Майже в усіх його байках хижакам і гнобителям протистоїть простий чоловік, який має здоровий глузд і мораль, і цим протиставляється автором багатим, крутіям, здирникам, чинодралам. Наприклад, у байці «Ведмежий суд» він викриває тогочасні порядки, продажність і корупцію в судових установах миколаївської Росії, де судді, Ведмеді та Вовки, за доносом Лисиці готові розтерзати жертву, бідолашного Вола, за те, що той лиш «їв сіно, і овес, і сіль». Вола за скоєні злочини «справедливий» суд постановив:

…четвертуватьІ м'ясо розідрать суддям на рівні часті,
Лисичці ж ратиці оддать".

Більшість байок Гребінки — «Зозуля та Снігир», «Сонце та Хмари», «Рожа та Хміль», «Школяр Денис», «Грішник», «Ворона і Ягня», «Вовк і Огонь» та інші — своїм корінням сягають у народну творчість і побудовані на зіставленні двох моралей — панської і народної, хижацької і гуманної. Для своїх байок Гребінка використовує традиційні в народній творчості персонажі Ведмедя, Вовка, Лисиці, Орла, а з другого боку постають Віл, Зозуля, Снігур, Ягня, Конопляночка. Завдяки цьому образи й ідеї його творів були зрозумілими для народу й виконували свою моралізаторську та повчальну роль. В одній з найкращих своїх байок — «Вовк і Огонь» Гребінка у досить сміливій критичній формі так висловлює характер взаємовідносин між багатими і бідними:

3 панами добре жить, Водиться з ними,хай тобі господь поможе,
Із ними можна їсти й пить,А цілувать їх — крий нас боже!

У своїх байках, коротких мініатюрах, побудованих, як у драматичних творах, на протиставленні й зіткненні характерів, добра і зла, Гребінка досяг простоти й легкості стилю, влучності характеристики персонажів, завдяки чому його твори стали явищем в українській літературі того часу. Євген Гребінка успішно виступав і як прозаїк, автор історичних повістей, нарисів та роману «Чайковський», присвяченого подіям визвольної війни 1648—1654 років. Цей роман Іван Франко називав улюбленим твором галицько-руської молоді 1860—1870-х років. Створено його на основі родинних переказів, оскільки мати Гребінки походила з роду Чайковських. У «Чайковському» Гребінка, продовжуючи лінію Миколи Гоголя, творами якого тоді зачитувалися Росія й Україна, створив широке епічне полотно, зобразив суворе життя козаків, їхню мужність і вірність у дружбі.

Гребінка звертався й до так званих злободенних тем, дуже гостро вирішуючи тему маленької людини у жорстокому суспільстві. Недарма його роман «Доктор» майже через півстоліття після смерті Гребінки А. Чехов називав серед найкращих творів тогочасної літератури, гідних для перевидання й народного читання. Велику популярність у другій половині XIX століття мали також повісті Гребінки «Приключения синей ассигнации» та «Кулик», в яких він у традиціях гоголівських творів показав жорстоку владу грошей у тогочасному суспільстві.

Окремою гранню творчості Гребінки є його лірична поезія українською та російською мовами. Найкращі з-поміж українських поетичних мініатюр — «Українська мелодія» («Ні, мамо, не можна нелюба любить») стала народною піснею. А російський романс на слова Гребінки «Очи черные, очи страстные» приніс Гребінці ще й світову славу. В історії української культури Гребінка залишився навічно ще й як щирий учасник у вирішенні Шевченкової долі, коли брав участь у викупленні його з кріпацтва та допоміг видати «Кобзар» 1840 року.

Одна з перших оцінок таланту Шевченка також належить Гребінці. В листі до Квітки-Основ'яненка 18 листопада 1838 року він писав: «Є тут один земляк Шевченко, що то за завзятий писати вірші! То нехай йому сей да той! Як що напише, так тільки цмокни, та вдар руками об поли! Він дав мені гарних стихів на збірник».

Автор слів відомого російського романсу «Очи черныя» (уперше було надруковано в «Літературній газеті» 17 січня 1843 року). Крім того, упорядкував один із перших українських альманахів «Ластовка»  (1841). На думку Олени Галети, цей збірник «виділявся серед тогочасних альманахів насамперед тим, що містив твори усіх більш-менш значних українських авторів і пропонував читачеві збірний образ літератури, а не огляд художніх і наукових новинок».

WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump has selected a charter school advocate and GOP donor from Michigan to be education secretary.
Betsy DeVos becomes the second woman chosen to fill a spot in Trump's Cabinet. Earlier Wednesday, Trump named South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations earlier in the day.
Both selections require Senate confirmation.
Trump calls DeVos "a brilliant and passionate education advocate."
DeVos heads the advocacy group American Federation for Children. She's known for supporting charter schools and vouchers.
Before Trump's announcement, some conservatives were complaining about DeVos' ties to the political establishment. They also warned that she previously supported Common Core standards that Trump railed against during the campaign.
The 58-year-old DeVos is a former Michigan Republican Party chairwoman. Her husband, Dick, is an heir to the Amway fortune and a former company president.
