In Honor of the Amazing Bicycle Journey of Shawne Camp
HON. JACKIE SPEIER
OF CALIFORNIA IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Wednesday, June 17, 2009
Ms. SPEIER. Madam Speaker, today, a heroic journey came to a successful end when Millbrae, California's Shawne Camp parked his bicycle at the foot of the Washington Monument. In fewer than 50 days, Shawne has ridden from San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge to the nation's capital to raise funds and awareness for lung disease and the American Lung Association.
In 2000 and 2001, Shawne suffered two complete collapses to his right lung. The condition, known as spontaneous pneumothorax, is extremely painful and can be fatal if not treated quickly. After multiple surgeries, Shawne was told that he was unlikely to ever return to full strength and should resign himself to a more sedate lifestyle. But the lifelong athlete wasn't accustomed to taking it easy and set out to prove that he could come back to full strength--and then some.
With support from family, friends and his employer, Shawne turned his success at rehabilitation into a personal crusade to help others. On May 8, he headed north from the Golden Gate Bridge on a solo, self- funded bicycle ride across America to help others suffering from lung ailments.
Over the past five weeks, Shawne has endured mountains, deserts, storms, fierce headwinds, angry dogs and even bears. But he's been supported by legions of devoted followers who have tracked his 3000 mile journey online and countless strangers along the way who have helped with shelter from the rain, a warm shower, or occasional meal.
Madam Speaker, Shawne Camp is an inspiration to anyone who chooses to overcome adversity. His journey has advanced awareness for spontaneous pneumothorax and other lung afflictions and raised money for a very good cause. I am proud to call Shawne Camp my constituent and am delighted to introduce this inspiring young man to my colleagues in the United States Congress.

# In Honor of Johnnie Johnson

IN HONOR OF JOHNNIE JOHNSON
______
HON. DENNIS J. KUCINICH
OF OHIO
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Thursday, November 4, 1999
Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the beloved rock and roller, Johnnie Johnson, for his monumental contributions he has made to American music over the past half-century. The rock and roll community will recognize him for his accomplishments by naming December 1, 1999 "Johnnie Johnson Day" at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio.
It all began on New Year's Eve 1952. The saxophonist for the Johnnie Johnson Trio fell ill and could not perform. Johnnie knew of a local guitar player named Chuck Berry, who agreed to sit in for the occasion. The evening was a smashing success and Berry instantly became a member of the Johnnie Johnson Trio. As their popularity grew, it was evident that Berry had a flare for entertaining audiences. Because of Berry's business insight, Johnnie agreed to make him the headliner. They decided that Berry would write the lyrics, and then he and Johnnie would put the music behind them. They eventually went on to record their first album, Maybellene, in 1955 and later great hits including Roll Over Beethoven, Rock and Roll Music, and Back in the USA.
Although not fully credited in the past, Johnnie Johnson has become widely recognized as the best blues pianist in the world and holder of the trademarks "Father of Rock & Roll" and "Father of Rock & Roll Piano." Recently, Johnnie Johnson has won several "Best Pianist" awards as well as receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Riverfront Times Music Magazine and the city of St. Louis in 1996. In a recent book about the man of music, author Travis Fitzpatrick tells the story of the music and the man that shaped the rock and roll world. Father of Rock & Roll: The Story Of Johnnie "B. Goode" Johnson secures the unsung hero his rightful place in history. Johnnie Johnson is finally on the way to receiving the credit he so rightfully deserves.
My fellow colleagues, please join me in honoring this great musician, Johnnie "B. Goode" Johnson, for his unselfish dedication to music. "Johnnie Johnson Day" is only a small recognition that we could give the man who's music moved us time and again.

In Honor of the Opening of an Exhibit Honoring Mary Baker Eddy at Pace University
HON. JERROLD NADLER
OF NEW YORK IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Tuesday, January 28, 2003
Mr. NADLER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commemorate the opening of an exhibit honoring Mary Baker Eddy at Pace University in downtown New York City. Today, Pace University will host a reception honoring "This is Woman's Hour . . .," a nationally acclaimed exhibit that has traveled around the country educating Americans about the extraordinary life of Mary Baker Eddy, one of the 19th century's greatest women pioneers.
I am pleased to welcome this exhibit to my Congressional district. Mary Baker Eddy may not be as widely known as Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, but she was well known to them. As an author, religious leader, and health reformer, Mary Baker Eddy was one of the first American women to live the life envisioned by the leaders who gathered at Seneca Falls in 1848 for the First Woman's Rights Convention. Commenting on Eddy's success as a spiritual leader, Susan B. Anthony said, "for nineteen hundred years . . . man has been much occupied establishing faiths and formulating creeds for woman to follow . . . . When woman does write her creed, it will be one of right actions, not of theological theories." Eddy's major work, published in 1875, was honored over a hundred years later by the Women's National Book Association as "one of 75 books by women whose words have changed the world." In 1908, at the age of 87, Eddy founded The Christian Science Monitor, which is known today around the world for its commitment to excellence and journalistic integrity.
Mary Baker Eddy has been honored by the National Women's Hall of Fame and the National Foundation for Women Legislators, and the exhibit now open at Pace University has received the praise of leaders in every city and state it has visited. It is now my pleasure to welcome this exhibit to Manhattan. It is fitting that this exhibit opens just a few blocks away from where the World Trade Center once stood; as we come together to envision the kind of future we hope to create, in our city, our country, and around the world, it is wise to remember Mary Baker Eddy's words: "The right of woman to fill the highest measure of enlightened understanding and the highest places in government is inalienable . . . This is woman's hour."

IN HONOR OF THE WORLD PEACE BELL AND THE CITY OF NEWPORT, KENTUCKY
______
HON. KEN LUCAS
OF KENTUCKY
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Mr. LUCAS of Kentucky. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the city of Newport, Kentucky, where the World Peace Bell arrived at its permanent home this weekend. At 12 feet in diameter and 12 feet in height, the bell weighs 66,000 pounds. It is the world's largest swinging bell. I also rise to recognize Wayne Carlisle for his vision, commitment, and enthusiasm, without which the World Peace Bell would not have been possible.
The World Peace Bell is a powerful symbol of freedom and peace. It was cast in Nantes, France, on December 11, 1998, the 50th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Bell has an inscription commemorating that document, as well as engravings marking the most important events of the past 1,000 years.
The World Peace Bell was first rung in Nantes on March 20, 1999, in a public ceremony, and it began a month-and-a-half-long sea voyage from France to New Orleans, where the Bell was made part of that city's July Fourth celebration. The Bell was transported by barge up the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers, making stops in 14 cities along the way. The Bell arrived at its final destination on August 1st.
The World Peace Bell will officially open on September 21, 1999, the International Day of Peace, when it will toll to observe the opening session of this year's United Nations General Assembly. On New Year's Eve 1999, the Bell will be rung once every hour and broadcast so that people in every time zone around the globe will hear the new millennium rung in by our World Peace Bell. This celebration will include leaders of church and state from around the world, as well as participants performing native rituals and wearing traditional costumes.
Mr. Speaker, I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate the city of Newport and neighboring river cities on their successful revitalization efforts. The World Peace Bell is only one of a number of projects coming to fruition in the region. The success of these efforts is a testament to the spirit and hard work of the people of Northern Kentucky.

Himalaya, "also the Circars, Canara and Madras. "Apparently," says Gamble, Masulipatam was the place where the Cactus was first grown, and the species 0. Dillenii D. C."
A fleshy, perennial, leafless shrub, persistent, jointed. Stem branching, formed of successive joints, which are more or less obovate, mostly flat 1ft. long, bearing at first some minute awl-shaped bodies answering to leaves, which soon fall off, and dense woolly hairs, with tufts of numerous barbed bristles and long, sharp spines also in their axils. Flowers bisexual, regular yellow, tinged with red, open in sunshine and for more than ​ one day, arising from the tufts on the upper edges or sides of the joints. Calyx-tube adnate to the ovary, not prolonged beyond it, lobes numerous on the upper edge and on the hollow receptacle of the Calyx. Petals numerous, widely spreading ; stamens numerous, about half the length of the petals. Stigma 3-fid. Fruit fleshy, obovate or pear-shaped, umbilicate at the top, with spine-bearing tubercles near the apex. The joints strike roots, but it is chiefly spread by birds which eat the fruit and drop the seeds (Brandis).
Uses : — The fruit is considered a refrigerant ; the leaves mashed up and applied as a poultice are said to allay heat and inflammation (Ainslie). In the Deccan, the baked fruit is given in whooping cough (Lisboa).
In Dacca, the milky juice is given as a purgative in doses of ten drops mixed with a little sugar (Taylor).
A syrup of the fruit appears to increase the secretion of bile when given in teaspoonful doses three or four times a day, and to control spasmodic cough and expectoration (Dymock).
The ripe fruit when eaten has the power of dyeing the urine red (Miller).
Said to be useful in gonorrhœa. The hot leaf applied to boils hastens suppuration ; the leaf made into a pulp is applied to the eyes in cases of ophthalmia.
I have used joints warmed up for poultices in guineaworm, abscesses with marked effect (K. R. K.).
According to Leather, the fruit consists of Water, 16-96 per cent ; organic matter 60-64, ash 22-40.
A fruit from Nellore, analysed by David Hooper gave the following results :— Carbohydrates 41.89 ; fibre 32.00 ; albuminoids 6.25 ; fat 3.63 ; Water 5.67 ; and ash 10.56. (Report Indian Museum Laboratory. 1904-5 p. 30).

# Indian Medicinal Plants/Natural Order Campanulaceæ

N. 0. CAMPANULACEÆ.
702. Lobelia nicotianœfolia, Heyne., h.b.f.i., iii, 427 ; Roxb. 170.
Vern. : — Deonal, Bokenal, Dhaval (Mar.).
Habitat: — Malabar; on the Ghauts, from Bombay to Travancore.
Tall herbs ; stems usually much branched upwards, 5-12ft., erect, somewhat pubescent or glabrate ; below an inch and a half or more in diameter, and almost solid ; the upper portion is a hollow tube ending in a crowded head of flower spikes which are about a foot in length. Leaves mostly radical, resemble those of the tobacco ; narrowly obovate-lanceolate, lower often 12 by 2in., upper gradually smaller, subsessile, serrulate herbaceous, glabrous or nearly so above, pilose or glabrous beneath. Inflorescence compound ; racemes dense, more or less pubescent ; peduncles ½-1in. and upwards. Flowers large and white. Calyx-tube glabrous or pubescent ; teeth ½in.; linear, glanddenticulate. Corolla ¾-1¼in., glabrous or pubescent. Anthers glabrous, on the back rarely a little hairy.

Uses: — An infusion of the leaves is used by the natives as an antispasmodic (Ph. Ind.).
The dry herbs and seeds are said to be entremely acrid, and, according to Dymock, the dust of the former irritates the throat and nostrils like tobacco. Lisboa states that the seeds contain an acro-narcotic poison, and that they are preferred to Dhatura as a poison, when rapid effect is desired. No mention is made of the plant in Indian medical works ; indeed, it would appear to be more widely known as a poison than esteemed as a drug.
Six ounces of the dry herb yielded to rectified spirit half an ounce of dark brown resinous extract (Dymock).
