# Sue Landon Vaughan

Sue Landon Vaughan (October 12, 1835 – July 22, 1911) was an American artist and writer best known for falsely claiming to have originated the Memorial Day holiday.

## Early life

Susan Hutchinson Adams was born in Missouri in 1835, the daughter of John Adams and Mary Gill, she was educated at Fielding Institute, Lindonwood College and Fulton Female College in Missouri and taught school in Jackson, Mississippi in 1865.

## Personal life

She married Cornelius Lewis Neville Vaughan in San Francisco, California in 1876. Her husband died in 1893 and she moved to Arlington, Virginia to live with her sister Sallie Adams.

## Claim to fame

Vaughan claimed to have started the Memorial Day holiday on April 26, 1865. This date and her name appear on the southeast portion of the Confederate Monument in Jackson, Mississippi.
Briefly, the story goes that Vaughan (Adams, at the time) was at a friend’s home north of Jackson, Mississippi on the night of April 25, 1865. Around midnight, two couriers arrive to tell them that their army is on the verge of surrender. Vaughan grabs a pencil and scrap of paper to write a plea to the "daughters of the Southland" to garland the graves of the dead soldiers the next day. The note is pinned to the jacket of one of the couriers who rushes to the newspaper office to have it printed in the next day’s paper. The following morning everyone meets at the cemeteries and the graves are heaped with flowers, starting the Memorial Day holiday.
She apparently wrote several similar versions of the story. The Mississippi Archives preserves a letter Vaughan wrote in 1897 describing the circumstances surrounding her inauguration of the holiday. Many of the details differ from another version of the story published in the Confederate Veteran magazine in 1898.
In their book, The Genesis of the Memorial Day Holiday in America, Bellware and Gardiner take issue with Vaughan’s claim. There is no contemporaneous evidence of her actions, despite claiming that she wrote her appeal in the Mississippian newspaper and no record of any witnesses to corroborate her story. In addition, the details she describes do not match the historical record of the surrender of General Taylor to General Canby at the War’s end. Her story is similar to the verifiable account of Mary Ann Williams. Williams wrote a letter to the press in March 1866 that was reprinted throughout the South. She proposed an annual decoration custom starting on April 26, 1866, the anniversary of Johnston's surrender to Sherman. Vaughan's claim was determined to be just one of the many hoaxes that arose to explain the origin of the holiday.
Vaughan attempted to capitalize on her claim by copyrighting a couple of drawings she made in 1908 and selling them as postcards.

## Death

Aged and destitute, Vaughan applied to the Masonic and Eastern Star home for the District of Columbia and was admitted in 1909. She died there in 1911. She is buried at Mount Olivet United Methodist Church in Arlington.
# Rhynchocorys

Rhynchocorys is a small genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Orobanchaceae. It was formerly classified in the family Scrophulariaceae.
It is native to Europe, Morocco and Algeria.

## Etymology

The genus name Rhynchocorys derives from the two ancient greek words ῥύγχος (rhúnkhos), meaning "snout, muzzle, nose", and κόρυς (kórus), meaning "helmet, head", which is a reference to the shape of the style.

## Phylogeny

The phylogeny of the genera of Rhinantheae has been explored using molecular characters. Rhynchocorys is the sister genus to Lathraea and Rhinanthus. These three genera share phylogenetic affinities with members of the core Rhinantheae: Bartsia, Euphrasia, Tozzia, Hedbergia, Bellardia, and Odontites. Melampyrum appears as a more distant relative.

# Ted Phelan

Edward John Phelan JP (1874 – 28 March 1961) was a New Zealand trade unionist, politician and rugby league administrator.

## Biography
### Early life and union career

Phelan was born in Auckland in 1874 and attended Wellesley Street School. He left school aged 14 and attained a job as a tally boy in a sawmill north of Wairoa. He married Ellen McIlroy in 1896. They had one son and two daughters. In Wairoa Phelan made a name for himself in public affairs. He was elected a member of the local hospital board and was a prominent member of the local branch of the Timber Workers' Union.
He later returned to Auckland and in 1907 became national secretary of the Timber Workers' Union. He held this post for a record 30 years. He then proceeded to serve as Dominion President of the union.

### Political career

He was elected to the Auckland City Council in 1925 on a Labour Party ticket, remaining a member for 13 years. He was a popular councillor and "topped the poll", receiving more votes than any other candidate, in 1933. He declined nomination to stand for the mayoralty in 1935 citing a conflict of interest, as he was also running the Hotel Auckland for Ernest Davis, who had already declared his candidacy. In 1938 he was unexpectedly denied re-nomination by the Labour Party alongside sitting councillors Arthur Rosser and George Gordon Grant.
Phelan was approached to stand for Parliament in the 1930 Parnell by-election, but he declined the invitation to seek the Labour Party nomination.
He was also a member of the Auckland Harbour Board and Auckland Transport Board. He retired from his last political office, the Auckland Transport Licensing Authority, in 1953 after nearly 30 years of public service.

### Other activities

He was also involved in various pro-war and veteran support causes during and after World War I. He was a board member of both the Rehabilitation Board and the War Relief Commission Patriotic Association.
Phelan was actively involved in the Rugby League movement in New Zealand. He was a trustee of Carlaw Park in Auckland and helped oversee the construction, use and maintenance of the ground. His involvement in the sport peaked when he was appointed the manager of the New Zealand team's 1911 tour of Australia, their first official overseas tour. He donated a shield named after himself to the Auckland rugby league (the Phelan Shield) which is still played for today.

### Later life and death

Phelan died in 1961 aged 87 years. He was survived by three children. Ellen has predeceased him by 25 years, having died in 1936.

The Faceless Man marks Di Martino's first time directing a feature length film.

## Plot

After recovering from cancer for three years, Emily plans a weekend away with her friends to cope with the fear of getting sick again.

* Lorin Kauffeld as Nina Hancock
* Martin Astifo as Dave Eddison

## Production

Di Martino chose to create The Faceless Man after directing his short film "Five O'Clock", as he wanted to create a feature length movie. He initially debated whether to make a monster or a gangster film before choosing to work the two ideas into a single film. Di Martino cites Get Out as one of his inspirations for the film, describing Jordan Peele's film as an elevated horror film. Of The Faceless Man, Di Martino stated that he wanted it to be "a unique experience. One that goes through different genres and at its core. A deconstruction of the slasher films and creature features. I wanted the experience to weave in black comedy to create a very offbeat adventure. At the same time have a looming presence of evil." The character of Eddie was written specifically for actor Andy McPhee and Di Martino felt that he didn't know "who I could have gotten if he said no."
The origin of the Faceless Man was originally intended to be included in the movie but was dropped after Di Martino watched Hereditary, as he thought that "the cult explanation was so badly executed I didn’t want to try and explain the origins in my film in a way like that."

## Release

The Faceless Man premiered at the 2019 Melbourne Underground Film Festival, where it won six awards that included Best Director and Best Film. The film had a VOD release on 28 August 2020 through Freedom Cinema.

## Reception

Filmmaker Brian Trenchard-Smith called the film "the new face of Ozploitation". Bobby LePire of Film Threat gave a positive review, calling the film "sublimely perfect in every way you can imagine."

The Essential Mary Chapin Carpenter is the second compilation album by American singer-songwriter Mary Chapin Carpenter, released by Columbia Records on November 4, 2003. Unlike Carpenter's first compilation album, Party Doll and Other Favorites (1999), which comprised a mix of studio and live versions of her greatest hits, The Essential Mary Chapin Carpenter features the original studio versions only.

## Reception

The album reached No. 63 on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart. AllMusic rated the collection 4-out-of-5-stars, writing: "While the majority of these tracks are also included on Party Doll and Other Favorites, the difference is Essential contains the radio versions, not alternate takes or live tracks. Both discs are recommended to fans of Carpenter's modern folk/country hybrid." Barnes & Noble stated: "It's a challenge to summarize Mary Chapin Carpenter's deep catalogue on one disc, but this Essential release does a fine job of surveying the impressive range and sophistication of the singer-songwriter's music over the past decade-plus."

## Track listing

All songs written by Mary Chapin Carpenter, except where noted.

Lascari borders the following municipalities: Campofelice di Roccella, Cefalù, Collesano, Gratteri.

## History

In 1693, a group of peasants moved from Gratteri in the mountains, to a zone near the sea. They began to build houses around an existing bell tower. Baron Gaetano Ventimiglia gave the new hamlet the name of Lascari, in honor of his descent from the strain of Lascari's emperors of Constantinople. In 1840 Lascari became independent from Gratteri and in 1890 the right to a territory was granted but only in 1924 the town obtained it. Today the territory is about 10.4 square kilometres (4.0 sq mi) with a population of 3,500. Lascari is located 50 kilometres (31 mi) east of Palermo, the capital city of Sicily. During these last years a lot of detached or semi-detached houses have been built near the beaches, so in the summer a lot of holiday-makers come here from Palermo or other towns in the centre of Sicily. The town hall is in "Aldo Moro" square.
# The Crab and the Fox

The tale of the crab and the fox is of Greek origin and is counted as one of Aesop's fables; it is numbered 116 in the Perry Index. The moral is that one comes to grief through not sticking to one's allotted role in life

## The fable

The Greek version of the story (Καρκῖνος καὶ Ἀλώπηξ) is pithily told and concerns a crab that abandons the seashore and crawls into a neighbouring meadow where it is eaten by a fox. The comment there is that "this fable shows that people are bound to fail when they abandon their familiar pursuits and take up a business they know nothing about".
The fable appeared in the Medici manuscript in the 15th century and later among those recorded by Roger L'Estrange (1692). In Victorian times the story appeared in George Fyler Townsend's new translation with the moral "Contentment with our lot is an element of happiness".

## Natural history

Crabs are not a natural food for foxes but anciently they were confused with crayfish and there is a freshwater species of crayfish that is eaten by foxes in the Balkan Danube region. There is in addition a South American Crab-eating Fox about which Aesop could not have known.

# Lanfredus

Lanfredus (Latinised from Lantfrid or Lanfred) (died 730) was duke of Alamannia under Frankish sovereignty from 709 until his death. He was the son of duke Cotefredus. Lanfredus's brother was Theudebald.
Following Cotefredus's death in 709 and the accession of Lanfredus and his brother Theudebald, the Frankish maior domus Pepin of Herstal invaded Alamannia and fought against yet another duke, Willehari, whose territory was restricted to the Ortenau in western Alamannia. This campaign can be seen as an attempt by Pepin to impose royal authority on the duchy following the death of Cotefredus and also to assert his right to influence or even control the succession within the duchy. Pepin’s campaign against Willehari might therefore have taken place to assist Lanfredus and Theudebald in their claim to the duchy. However, both Lanfredus and Theudebald were hostile to Pepin’s successor.
After Pipin’s death in 714, Lanfredus dissolved all links with the royal court and its new maior domus Charles Martell.
Alamannic resistance against Frankish supremacy was tenacious. In 722 Charles Martel forcefully subdued the duchies of Alamannia and Bavaria but in the following year both duchies again rose against Carolingian supremacy.
In 724 Pirmin founded the Reichenau Abbey under the protection of Charles Martel, Lanfredus and Theudebald considered this a provocation and in 727 Theudebald ob odium Karoli ("out of hatred against Charles") evicted first Pirmin and, in 732, his successor Heddo from Reichenau. The Abbey of St. Gall, however, founded 719 by the Alamannic monk Otmar, was favoured by the dukes of Alamannia and the regional aristocracy.
Between 724 and 730 Lanfredus usurped the right to issue a law-code whereas up until then law-giving had been one of the major activities of the Merovingian kings. He instigated a revision of the Laws of the Alamans (Lex Alamannorum Lantfridus), a sign and an expression of his claim to be an independent ruler. Even though in the law-code the king is mentioned as dominus, there is no reference to the role of the maior domus, which is an indication of Lanfredus's loyalty towards the Merovingian dynasty.
In 730 Charles Martell invaded the duchy with an army once again. Lanfredus's death is recorded for the same year. Whether this occurred as a result of the fighting is not clear. His brother Theudebald succeeded to the duchy as sole ruler.

* The Book of Cupid, God of Love or The Cuckoo and the Nightingale, by John Clanvowe
* The Organ Concerto in F major "The Cuckoo and the Nightingale" by George Frideric Handel
