descendants among my grandmother Cora Bertha Barker's ancestors.

I've found some new sources of information since that earlier post: the entry for Edward inThe Great Migration book, and several online local histories and genealogies that include the
Coburn family. Not surprisingly, two ofthem were written by Coburn family members. One
of them is a History of Dracut, Massachusetts, written by Silas Roger Coburn, which had
this on Edward and his family:

"In the list of passengers who sailed from Liverpool in 1635 on the Ship Defence in command of Capt. Bostock, the name of Edward Colburn appears. His home was in Wilts County, England, and when, at the age of seventeen, he arrived in Boston, he went to Ipswich and was employed by Nathaniel Saltonstall, who owned a large estate in that town,and who later committed the management of the farm to him. The plan of the town of Ipswich does not include any farm belonging to Edward, although he owned some outlying land. He married Hannah, whose surname is not given in the records, but references in private letters lead to the conclusion that her name was Rolfe. His neighbor, Samuel Varnum, had purchased in 1668, a tract of land in what was known as "The Wilderness north of the Merrimac," which later became Dracut. Large tracts of land in this vicinity were for sale and probably influenced by his neighbor Varnum at Ipswich he purchased a tract as already described in a former chapter. As the Indians were troublesome, he occupied a garrison house near the river, and


with his wife and children, who were born at Ipswich, he removed here in 1669. His children were Edward, John, Robert, Thomas, Daniel, Hannah, Ezra, Joseph, and Lydia. The greater part of the Coburns and Colburns in the United States descend from the six younger brothers, Edward2 being killed in King Philip's war in 1675, as already recorded. The descendants of Edward and Hannah had been prominent in public affairs in town and state. In the lists of those who served in the different wars which have occurred since the settlement of the town, the name of this family appears defending the rights and liberties of the country. On the Roll of Honor the names of 33 Coburns appear as serving in the War of the Revolution."pp371-372scientists to conduct scientific projects in these areas to better understand the consequences of these environmental and anthropogenic constraints on live history traits of organisms inhabiting these areas including fishes.

this differential expression reflects the effects of natural selection, which could sort out some specific adaptive polymorphisms that may increase the relative fitness of populations in their natural environments. However, considering the extensive temporal variations of salinity conditions in the Saloum and Gambia estuaries throughout the year, the idea that divergent selection could lead to fixation of mutations seems unlikely. Indeed, the salinity in the Saloum and Gambia estuaries increases during the first months following the end of the rainy season, because of intense evaporation \[[@B6]\], and then becomes quite stable at the end of the dry season. Thus, during the long dry season, the estuary only exhibits minor variations in salinity. By contrast, during the short rainy season, salinity in the estuary is very unstable and canfrom Guiers Lake and Hann Bay.

Collision course

Since moving to Spain last April, I have witnessed countless ideological collisions between the Catholic Church hierarchy and the government of Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero.

Gay marriage? He legislated for it. Express divorce? No sooner said than done, thanks to Mr Zapatero.

And it left Church leaders fuming.

The right to educate children in moral principles... belongs to the parents. It's a principle that's recognised by our constitution

Agustin Losada

The prime minister's liberal social agenda outraged Catholic conservatives to the point where, ahead of the general election here in March, the Conference of Spanish Bishops put out a barely-disguised appeal to Spaniards to cast their votes elsewhere. But it fell on deaf ears,and Mr Zapatero's Socialist Party was re-elected.

Since then, battle has been rejoined - with schools as the front-line.

The prime minister stands accused of seeking to indoctrinate the youth of Spain, through an innocuous-sounding new compulsory subject called Education for Citizenship.

To the horror of some Catholic parents, the syllabus touches on delicate social themes like divorce, abortion and sexuality.

"If you are able to lead kids to a certain way of thinking, you can have full control of them - that's what I think the government is trying to do now," complains Agustin Losada, a parent whose formal objection to the new classes is supported by Madrid's Conservative regional government.

Mr Losada adds: "The right to educate children in moral principles does not belong to the government, it belongs to the

The performance of the century

The world’s only amateur theater troupe dedicated to re-creating notable events in the history of Jefferson County turned up at the Crooked River Ranch Independence Celebration on Saturday, performing two short skits to celebrate the county’s centennial.

The on-again, off-again “Jefferson County Players” are on the road this summer to mark Jefferson County’s 100th birthday, performing at community eventsin every corner of the county. Jerry Ramsey, president of the Jefferson County Historical Society, said the performances are a fun way to engage local residents with the community’s past.

Along with the skits, the historical society has assembled a traveling exhibit of historical photos, maps and other documents it’s been taking from town to town this summer.

The Jefferson County Players performed two skits Saturday, the first telling the story of how Culver was named the county seat when Jefferson County split from Crook County in 1914, only to lose the designation to Madras two years later.

Ramsey said Gov. Oswald West inadvertently created the spat by appointing a Madras resident, a Culver resident and a Metolius resident to serve as the new county’s commission. When it came time for


their first order of business to name a county seat, the three men all cast votes for their hometowns and refused to budge.

The deadlock continued over more than two days and 280 ballots, Ramsey said, until commissioner and Metolius resident John King gave in and cast his vote for Culver. Two years later, county residents voted to establish a permanent county seat in Madras, Ramsey said, and a few months after that county officials, joined by a few “good ol’ boys,” headed to Culver and carted away the records and other holdings of the fledgling county government.

Ramsey said there’s still some low-level resentment in Culver about the episode, and he expects to hear about it when his group performs the skit later this summer at the Culver Crawdadin the north to the next screen.

plays an Arab, but he gives a very descent performance as a man of politics who transform into an unexpected hero. Vladimir Kulich also gave a very strong performance as the head of the twelve vikings, Buliwyf. The rest of the cast was simply good as well, giving off both humor and testosterone. The camera work was both thrilling and dangerous, which reminded me very much of the intense camera angles in Predator.The scenery and cinematography is superbly crafted, the heart racing score of Jerry Goldsmith was both haunting and moving. the battle sequences were smaller, no where in the league of Lord of the Rings but they were exciting and intense with plenty of bloodshed. And I also have to mention that the make up job wasvery well done from the wigs to the scars that the warriors gained and held throughout the film.However, the first half hour of the film was somewhat hard to follow, due to the fact that the dialog was in different languages and hard to follow while other cast members such as a surprise appearance of Omar Sharif, was trying to interrupt the happenings to Banderas' character, as well as to the audience. The film I might add was a bit too short, and over way to quickly, making it more of an action flick rather than an epic like Braveheart or Gladiator, and a few intermediate stories were not solved fully.


students at the University of Oregon conceived and designed the innovative configuration.

In 2009, Schlossberg, architecture professor Nico Larco, and a group of like-minded colleagues formed the Sustainable Cities Initiative (SCI) to bring student ideas into sustainable planning on a massive, indeed, international scale. One street at a time, this multi-disciplinary team of future architects, environmental scientists, engineers, urban planners, geographers and social policy specialists is researching and redesigning a better world.

“In every university around the country, there’s this brilliance that never leaves the walls of the classroom,” Schlossberg said. He and his colleagues hope to change that.

design by Matt Linn

Under the umbrella of SCI is its Sustainable Cities Year Program (SCYP). As part of the SCYP, University of Oregon classes across diverse disciplines partner with a city tosolve problems and improve existing parks, public buildings and communities. Over the course of a year, about 500 students devote tens of thousands of hours to help the city achieve a higher degree of economic, communal and environmental sustainability.

In its six year tenure, SCYP has partnered with Salem, Gresham, Medford, Springfield, Lane Transit District, and now, Redmond. Students have designed bike trails and street lamps, re-imagined vacant lots, created development plans to revitalize neighborhoods, and lent their expertise to hundreds of other real world projects.

Engaging students in real world projects is, in itself, not a novel idea. What sets SCYP apart is the scope and cohesiveness of the project. Bringing academic expertise across industries into focus on one city promotes interdisciplinary learning that leads to real environmental and

Pope Francis loves Erdogan: he gave him 50 minutes, not the usual 30 he accords to world leaders.

“Erdoğan discussed the plight of the Christians [sic] minorities in the Middle East and promised to mobilize Turkish support to help them in every possible way, just as the Ottomans did in their 600-year history.”

In reality, the Christians in the Ottoman Empire suffered the institutionalized discrimination and harassment of dhimmitude, punctuated with occasional open persecution. I detail this at length in my next book, The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, which is scheduled to be out this summer.

“This of course brought the president to the issue of the rising tide of Islamophobia in the West. He asked the pontiff to help Muslims and stand up to this situation, whichcould turn into a disaster in most areas of Western Europe. The problem that started as xenophobia has mushroomed into enmity toward all Muslims, especially in Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Austria and France. The Vatican has also drawn attention to the problem, but Turkey wants a concerted and continuous international effort to fight Islamophobia.”

“Islamophobia” is used to refer to persecution of innocent Muslims, which is never justified, as well as to honest analysis of how jihadis use the texts and teachings of Islam to justify violence and oppression, as I explain in my last book, Confessions of an Islamophobe. The conflation of the two acts as a tool to restrict the freedom of speech and bring the public discourse in the West into line with Sharia blasphemy laws.

With his mast snapped into three pieces, Hatfield piloted the Spirit of Canada for 30 hours before reaching shore in Ushuaia, Argentina.

It took him nearly a month to repair the boat, but Hatfield stayed in the race and on May 31, 2003, he pulled back into Newport, finishing 10th overall and first in his class.

That same year, Hatfield began working with the Broad Reach Foundation for Youth Leaders, a Toronto-based charity that teaches at-risk youth to sail.

As an honorary director of the board, Hatfield worked passionately to promote the sailing program, said Marguerite Pyron, executive director of the charity, in an interview Monday.

“He would meet with potential supporters and talk about the value of developing confidence in youth who normally have very little opportunities accessing this type of activity,” Pyron said.

Pyron described Hatfield as a kind, unpretentious man who dreamed of exploring new places.

we do not reach petitioner railroads' alternative contentions.

2
* The railroad lines which are the subject of the Commission's order constitute a main line segment of the Rock Island's tracks.  The "Tucumcari line," as that segment is called, extends from Santa Rosa, New Mexico, to St. Louis, Missouri, via Kansas City, Missouri, for a total distance of 965.2 miles.

3
In March 1975 the Rock Island filed a petition for reorganization under section 77 of the Bankruptcy Act, 11 U.S.C. § 205.  A trustee was appointed by the reorganization court and approved by the Commission.  While attempting to formulate a feasible reorganization plan, the trustee has continued to operate the Rock Island.  In December 1978 the Rock Island trustee, joined by the Southern Pacific Transportation Company ("SPT")and its subsidiary, SSW, filed an application with the Commission seeking approval of a purchase agreement whereby the SSW would pay fifty-seven million dollars to buy the Tucumcari line.  The Commission has engaged in extensive hearings concerning the application, which is still pending at the present time.2  The petitioners in the case at bar have vigorously opposed the proposed purchase at all stages of the Commission's proceedings.

4
During the five years since the Rock Island filed its petition for reorganization, it has been unable to substantially improve its financial condition.  In August 1979 two railroad unions struck the Rock Island and other union employees honored their picket line.  Because of the strike, the Rock Island management was unable to continue essential service, and on September


11125 on the basis that Rock Island line was "currently suffering from a lack of cash which makes its continuing operations impossible in the face of national transportation requirements."3  The Kansas City Terminal Railway Company ("KCT") was directed by the Commission to provide service over substantially all the Rock Island lines, including the Tucumcari line.4  On November 30, 1979 the Commission extended its directed service order and directed KCT to continue service for an additional ninety days over a slightly reduced portion of the Rock Island tracks, including the entire Tucumcari line.5

6
On the same day as the Executive Order was issued and before the Commission had ordered directed service, the St. Louis Southwestern Railway Company with the support of the trustee for the Rock Island filedan application seeking authority to operate temporarily over the Tucumcari line pending final Commission action on its purchase application.  SSW stated that it would provide the service at its own expense and that the Commission had "implied power" in an emergency to grant its application.

7
On September 27, 1979 the Commission served a notice inviting comments on SSW's petition for temporary authority.  By December 3, 1979, the date of the Commission's decision granting the application, sixteen replies had been received by the Commission.  Four parties favored granting the petition, eleven were opposed, and one party was neutral.  The protestants challenged the Commission's statutory authority to issue an order, maintained that the order would prejudice their rights as parties adverse to the application for purchase of


the Tucumcari line pending before the Commission, pointed out numerous operating problems with joint service by SSW and KCT over the Rock Island's lines and stated that significant irreparable revenue losses would occur to them even under temporary SSW control of the Tucumcari line.

8
On December 7, 1979, four days after the Commission had extended KCT's directed service authority to operate the Tucumcari line, the Commission entered Service Order No. 1411 ("the order") which is at issue here, granting SSW and its corporate parent, Southern Pacific Transportation Company (SPT), emergency authority to operate temporarily over the Tucumcari line without Government subsidization.  The Commission based its decision on section 11123 of the Interstate Commerce Act, 49 U.S.C. § 11123.  The Commission stated that the grant of temporary authorityto SSW was necessary because while directed service by KCT under section 11125, 49 U.S.C. § 11125, afforded a temporary answer to Rock Island's problems, it was not "a long-range solution or even an ideal short-term one."  Directed service, the Commission noted, could not last for longer than 240 days and created a significant drain on the federal treasury.  Relying on its expertise in the rail area, the Commission determined that an emergency existed within the meaning of section 11123, 49 U.S.C. § 11123, despite the implementation of directed service.  The Commission also found that the grant of temporary authority to SSW to operate the Tucumcari line would reduce the drain on the federal treasury.

9
In its decision, the Commission stated that it was relying on


the same over eighty years of use by the Commission and the railroad industry.

37
The first use of the term "car service" of which we are aware occurred in 1902, when the Nation's railroads, having abandoned the custom of shifting freight between the cars of connecting roads and having instituted the practice of interchanging the same loaded car to connecting lines to its ultimate destination, agreed upon a code of "car service rules" which regulated the return and in general the interchange of freight cars.  The Interstate Commerce Act, as enacted in 1887, did not mention "car service," but the term was used by Congress in the Esch Car Service Act of 1917, ch. 23, 40 Stat. 101, amending the 1887 Act.  According to its proponent Congressmancontend that the Commission's power to issue "permits" has never and does not now include allowing carriers to operate over other carrier's lines.  A "permit," they allege, as used both in the railroad industry and in subsection 11123(a)(4), is a term of art referring to the grant of authority which allows a shipment to enter a port or terminal which has been placed under an embargo.14  When an embargo is placed or approved by the Commission, any traffic moving into the area may do so only under a "permit" or pass exempting it from the embargo.  According to petitioners, the Commission has never before issued a permit, and cannot properly issue one, which in addition, allows the shipment to move by one carrier over another


suspend, or annul them."  41 Stat. 477.  (emphasis added).  The legislative history, although quite meager, supports the narrow interpretation advocated by petitioners.  The only reference to the word "permits" appears in the following remarks made on the floor of the House of Representatives by Congressman Esch:

53
You know how the ports in New York, Boston, and Philadelphia were cluttered up with a vast congestion of freight during the summer of 1918 before the armistice was signed, and you remember how embargoes had to be issued way back to the interior where the commerce originated.  This bill gives the Commission the right of levying embargoes to prevent goods moving to the port terminals and thus congest not only the port terminals but the sidings ofin bulk from a western point to Baltimore, and is reasonably certain that he will have a ship ready when the grain arrives, he requests the designated agent of the carrier at Baltimore to permit him to make the shipment.  If he is able to demonstrate to the agent's satisfaction that the ship will be in the harbor to receive the shipment, a numbered "permit" is issued which says, in effect, that the carrier will accept a specified number of cars to move to Baltimore from a designated point of origin.  (emphasis added.)

58
Five years later, and after the 1920 enactment of the provision giving the Commission emergency power to "direct traffic under permits," 41 Stat. 476, the Commission again defined the "permit" system:

59
In Baltimore Chamber of


with the Commission to operate all or part of the RI system on a noncompensated basis under 49 U.S.C. § 11123 . . .  or similar provisions.

5
 The extended directed service order was scheduled to expire on March 2, 1980.  Subsequent to oral argument in this appeal, we were advised by petitioner RLEA that the Commission has further extended the period of directed service to 11:59 p. m. on March 23, 1980

6
 After the Commission issued its order, SSW filed motions with the Commission seeking postponement, clarification and modification of the Commission's order.  As of this date, SSW has not yet begun operating the Tucumcari line.  On March 10, 1980, SSW notified the Rock Island that it will enter upon and operate the Tucumcarilowest rate throughout the month.

Short, medium, and long-term rates rose from the previous month. The yield curve widened a bit from the previous month reversing direction as it had narrowed in December. The one-month bill had one session where it held a higher rate than the three-month bill.

Short-term rates took a dramatic turn upwards after being stuck at zero for several years while long-term rates continued their slow and steady decline. The yield curve continued to narrow but it also narrowed from the bottom up. A narrowing from the short-term is a warning sign for an inversion that indicates recession.

Short-term rates and medium-term rates continued to rise in December while long-term rates dropped from the previous month. The yield curve continued to narrow as it had in the


However, the yield curve narrowed from the bottom up and that has been a steadfast indicator of recession.

Short-term rates continued their steady rise in October and medium and long-term rates tempered their rise from the previous month. The yield curve narrowed after widening in the previous month. Short-term rates have slowed their rise in rates but October breaks with the previous two months where the one-month bill had a session with higher rates than the three-month bill. That is, the one-month bill maintained the lowest rate throughout the month for the first time in three months. That is a promising sign as a narrowing of the yield curve from the bottom up has been a steadfast indicator of recession. All rates rose in October.

Short-term rates resumed their steadyrise in September and medium and long-term rates returned to their relatively more rapid rise. The yield curve widened after narrowing further in the previous month. Short-term rates have slowed their rise in rates but September marks the second month in a row where the one-month bill had a session with higher rates than the three-month bill and an inversion of the yield curve from the bottom up has been a steadfast indicator of recession. No inversion has occurred yet but special attention needs to be paid to short-term rates in the near future. All rates rose in September.

Short-term rates paused their steady rise in August but medium and long-term rates began to fall. The yield curve continues to shrink but it only indicates a recession if it


shrinks from the bottom up. The upward tick in the short-term maturities' rates pause is promising as it is a decent indicator that a recession is not on the horizon. All rates fell in August with the exception of the one-year note which rose slightly.

The month of July found short-term maturities' rates continuing their upward trend that started earlier in the year. Long-term maturities' rates have leveled off after dropping slightly earlier in the year. The upward tick in the short-term maturities' rates is troubling as it is a decent indicator of an ensuing recession.

The Isro scientists used their technical skills to indefinitely extend the Mars Orbiter Mission, and the spacecraft continues to take scientific observations. The Mars Orbiter Mission has discovered superhot argon in the upper atmosphere of the red planet, a finding that has implications on the energy deposition in the upper Martian atmosphere, and is an important step in explaining why the Martian atmosphere escape rate is higher than previously believed.

An experimental payload on board the Mars Orbiter Mission, known as the Mars Exospheric Neutral Composition Analyser (MENCA) made the discovery. The MENCA is one of the five scientific payloads on the orbiter. MENCA is a mass spectrometer, developed


by the Space Physics Laboratory of the Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre in Thiruvananthapuram. The observations were made in 2014, when the orbiter was at its closest distance to the surface of the planet, known as the periapsis. The MENCA previously progressed scientific understanding by studying the unique characteristics of the upper Martian atmosphere during evening time.

The superhot argon in the upper atmosphere is not a persistent occurrence. Normally, the upper atmosphere on Mars has a temperature of -3.15 Celsius. In the obrits when superthermal neutral argon atoms are observed, the temperature spikes to 126.85 Celsius. The hot argon atoms are extremely energetic, and hence have high kinetic temperatures. The research has been published in the Geophysical Research Letters vol. 44, a journal of the American Geophysical Union (AGU).

LastPlans for a major shopping center and on-site hotel on the city’s southwest side are underway.

Bourn Cos. is planning the outdoor center on Irvington Road, west of Interstate 19, and is in negotiations with several retailers, restaurants and hotel chains.

The 58-acre site will be developed in phases, with about 220,000 square feet of shopping space to come online by fall of 2017, said developer Alan Tanner of Bourn.

At full build-out — in about 3½ years — the center could have up to 600,000 square feet of retail space.

Anchor tenants will be on the west side of the center, facing I-19.

Restaurants and retailers will dot the east and south sides, facing the interstate and Irvington Road.

The site is owned by the city of Tucson and used by Tucson Water

The greatest road race festival in the world will roar back into life on May 30th, 2009!

After the excitement of the 2008 Isle of Man TT celebrations, when fans were treated to some of the most competitive racing the event has ever seen, all eyes are now on TT2009.

The HM Plant Honda team, who have supported BikeWise over the years, consists of four seasoned campaigners to include 14-times TT winner John McGuinness, six-times North West 200 winner Steve Plater and five-times Sidecar TT winner Nick Crowe, with passenger Mark Cox.

2009 marks Honda's 50th anniversary of participation in motorcycle racing - beginning with the 1959Isle of Man TT races. Since then, globally, Honda has endeavoured to win in every racing category it has entered. With pure road-racing and the Isle of Man TT races being so close to heart, 2009 sees one of Honda's strongest ever rider line-ups for the road, as the marque attempts to celebrate its Golden Road-Racing Anniversary in style with yet more wins.

John said, "It's a pleasure to continue my time withHM Plant Honda - one of the most respected teams in the road-race scene and also, to be back with some of the mechanics that I've had TT success with in the past. I know that with the team behind me and even further developments and improvements to both the Fireblade and CBR600RR we'll be in good


shape for both these important events."

John will take part in the Superbike, Supersport and Superstock races at the Isle of Man and Superbike and Supersport classes at the North West.

Joining John is Steve Plater, a regular winner of the North West 200, but a relative newcomer to the Isle of Man TT races. Despite only beginning his TT career in 2007, where he became the fastest newcomer of all-time, Steve scooped a Supersport win in 2008.

"For me in 2009, the North West 200 and Isle of Man TT races are so close to my heart and a massive part of my season," said Steve. "I've won a few races at the North West, but I'm still hungry for more. I took three wins from four races there thisthe TT for HM PlantHonda are Nick Crowe and passenger Mark Cox. Nick originally began his TT career as a passenger in 1995, before his first race as driver in 2002. He has five TT wins to his credit. Mark started his riding career as a solo rider, but when he got the chance of standing in for an injured sidecar racer he's never looked back. Mark has experienced success at World Championship and F2 Championship level. Nick said, "To be associated with the HM Plant Honda team is an honour! I've got five TT wins and missed out in 2007 due to problems, but we learnt from our mistakes and came back this year to win both races. We'll both be aiming to do the same in


2009!" Mark added, "We did the double at the TT in 2008 after a disappointing 2007, so we've learned from that and want another double with HM Plant Honda in '09!"

HM Plant Honda Team Manager, Havier Beltran, said, "We've got an incredibly strong line-up for the roads in 2009 - a very important year for Honda - celebrating its 50th anniversary of road-racing, which began with Honda's first assault on the Isle of Man TT races. John is still the man to beat around the 37.73-mile Mountain circuit, while Steve has proved to be one of the most remarkable newcomers of recent years, surprising many TT regulars with his speed around the course and taking a Supersport win last year. Both riders also have enviable reputations around thelegendary North West 200 course, with Steve and John taking wins around the nine-mile 'Triangle' circuit. Nick and Mark have shown their speed by taking two wins this year and we'll be backing them 100% so they can do the same in 2009. We're also very happy to be continuing our road-racing relationship with Dunlop for 2009."

Celebration activities at the 2009 TT event to mark Honda's 50th anniversary of racing are currently in planning and will be announced in the near future.

Coleraine and District Motor Club officials have confirmed that the 2009 International North West 200 will take place on Saturday 16th May with Race Week festivities commencing on Saturday 9th May. The date had been pencilled in on the motorbike racing calendar for several weeks and was


to put in place an exciting week of activities and events to help celebrate the North West 200's 80th birthday and the event's official launch will take place on 8th January 2009 at the Belfast Waterfront Hall.http://www.northwest200.org/

The Indiana Fever selected former guard Feyonda Fitzgerald with the 20th overall pick and eighth pick in the second round of Thursday’s WNBA draft in New York. FanRag Sports Network predicted Fitzgerald would be selected 18th by the Washington Mystics.

The Fever went 17-17 in 2016 and earned the fifth seed in the WNBA playoffs. Tamika Catchings, the league’s second all-time leading scorer, retired at season’s end.

In the 2016-17 season, Fitzgerald helped the Owls make their first NCAA tournament appearance since 2011. She started all 32 games,averaged 17.3 points per game, ranked Top 10 in Division I in assists per game and shot 82.7 percent from the free-throw line. Fitzgerald became Temple’s first Big 5 Player of the Year recipient since 2012 and the fourth All-American in program history.

Fitzgerald becomes the fourth Owl to be drafted. She is the first former Temple player to be drafted since Shey Peddy was a second-round selection in 2012. Fitzgerald will graduate as the program’s second-leading scorer and the career assists leader.

Their father is enthralled with it, while his teenage son and daughter, as well as his wife, aren’t particularly excited. Another motor home shows up, driven by an old man who used to live in the woods. It seems like all of them are getting along at first, as they share dinner around the campfire, but once the old man goes back to his motor home,


it turns out he has plans to kill them! You see, he has a crazy son named Bernie, whom he broke out of the institution, and the old man intends to steal the family’s fancy motor home, mainly because he envies their microwave oven! He sends Bernie out with his trusty axe, and he makes short work of the vacationers. However, his father dies of a heart attack before he can take advantage of his new microwave! *Sob*

The issues that had caused the war ripped Kentuckians apart. Families were as deeply divided as Henry Clay ’s grandsons, three of whom had joined the Union army while four others had fought in the Confederate army.

The northern section of the state, where Goebel was from, was urban, industrialized, and opposed to slavery; the western and southern sections were rural and agrarian. In September 1861, the state was predominantly Unionist. After the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, angry slaveholders in Kentucky turned their sympathies southward.

During Reconstruction, Northern Republicans arrived in the commonwealth with intentions of ending white rule and enforcing civil rights for blacks. They treated nearly all citizens,


Union sympathizers included, as if they were raving rebels. That made a great many Kentuckians angry. The majority were Democrats who despised “Black” Republicans (so-called because they supported legal equality for blacks), formed a rock-solid voting block that intimidated African-American voters, and controlled the state for thirty years following 1865. Ex-Confederate politicians were especially popular, more so if they had lost an eye or a limb in the war.

When thirty-one-year-old William Goebel, a staunch Democrat, entered politics in 1887, Democratic power was beginning to decline. Economic conditions were poor; workers’ wages were low; farmers were steeped in debt; and taxes were high.

Not your typical Southern politician, not even a Southerner by birth, Goebel had no ties to the Confederacy. He was the son of German immigrants who hadcome to the United States in the 1850s after the reform movement in their native land failed. The Goebels believed in abolitionism and civil rights for women and blacks. William was born in Sullivan County, Pennsylvania, in 1856, and he spoke only German until he was six years old. After his father returned from a stint in the Union army, the family moved to Covington, in Kenton County, Kentucky. Across the Ohio River from Cincinnati, Covington was the second largest city in the commonwealth, with thriving German and Irish immigrant communities.

After graduating from the Law School of the Cincinnati College, Goebel was invited to work in the law firm of ex-governor John White Stevenson. Stevenson admired the young man, whom he thought had an excellent legal mind and


sound values, and he introduced Goebel to the Democratic party ’s key players, who welcomed him at first.

Under Stevenson, chief counsel for the Kentucky Central Railroad, and the politician-attorney John G. Carlisle, for whom he also worked briefly, Goebel became expert in contracts,corporations, and railroads. He observed how big businesses circumvented their responsibilities and put profits above their workers’ welfare. With no state laws regulating employment practices, the only way to redress abuses or negligence was through the courts.

In 1883, Goebel went into private practice and began taking on corporations and railroads, specifically the Louisville and Nashville Railroad (L&N), the largest rail network in Kentucky. Many overworked, underpaid railroad employees came to him, as did widows of men killed in train wrecks.

When he successfully defended railroad employees arrestedwas furious because he owned stock in that corporation. In retaliation, he blocked Goebel’s chance to become a judge on the Court of Appeals. Sanford’s closest friends were Theodore Hallam and Harvey Meyers Jr., law partners and also ex-Confederate politicians who “managed” politics in Kenton County. This triumvirate watched the young senator ’s progress, interfering with it whenever they could.

Goebel argued vigorously for improving schools and for women to have the right to vote for school board members and to serve as school trustees and as members of the Board of Education. He wanted more rights for blacks as well. He favored regulations for doctors, restrictions on convict labor, better prisons, and free roads. He sided with legislation that was unfriendly to banking interests. He blamed Republicans for


practically everything, but a number of Democrats came to rue his influence. His reforms made voters happy but infuriated the ex-Confederate ruling class.

Enraging L&N magnates, Goebel created a wish list of railroad regulations. He was determined to protect the Railroad Commission, make the railroads pay their fair share of taxes, and stop them from interfering with the state’s business. L&N lobbyists were ubiquitous. They worked all over the state, giving free passes, money, food, and whiskey to legislators and anyone else who had any influence in state or county government. The formidable Milton H. Smith, president of the most powerful monopoly in Kentucky, had been sitting in the catbird seat until lawyer-senator Goebel intervened.

During Goebel’s first term in office, the Railroad Commission increased the tax valuation on thelast thing L&N wanted was for Goebel to be a member of it. L&N knew that Goebel would use, as biographer James C. Klotter says, “the constitution as a vehicle to enact laws which he had not been able to pass in the more conservative legislature.”

Goebel did just that. He was successful in securing the Railroad Commission a place in the new constitution, which meant it could not be abolished except by a majority of voters. He was also instrumental in getting a method of railroad property tax valuation included. When the new constitution was finally passed, it also included child labor laws and a requirement that employers pay employees in lawful money, not company store checks.

Kenton County kept reelecting Goebel to the Senate, and his peers in


the Senate elected him president pro tempore. According to the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette on April 13, 1895:

No man in the Senate was listened to with more respect and he almost invariably puts through measures he advocated. As a rule, Senator Goebel was a reticent and retiring man, but when he took to the floor to champion a measure, he was lightning. . . . He has done more than any man in Kentucky to break up certain corrupt rings, and the lobby hated him cordially, but at the same time feared him like a wrath to come.

Of course, not everyone in Kenton County was happy about Goebel’s ascension. John Sanford had been fuming since Goebel repealed the toll roads. Sanford’s temper flared again after Goebel represented a groupof citizens opposed to increases in tolls on the bridge John Roebling had built between Covington and Cincinnati, another of Sanford’s investments. As many as seven thousand citizens who lived in Covington and worked in Cincinnati crossed that bridge to and from work. The last straw for Sanford came when Goebel moved three accounts—the city ’s, the county’s, and the schools’ deposits—from his bank to Frank Helm’s First National Bank of Covington. With that blow, Sanford, known for his quick temper, publicly stated he was going to kill Goebel or be killed.

What actually precipitated the incident between Goebel and Sanford involved what was called in those days “posting,” a noxious practice by which a person could anonymously publish insulting information about his enemy.

On October 11, 1899, the Hartford


consciousness, died an hour or so later.

According to the coroner, several people on the street witnessed the shooting and “the evidence clearly proved that Sanford drew his revolver and fired the first shot. The county judge, a Republican, . . . discharged Goebel as evidence showed that Sanford had threatened to kill Goebel, and had drawn and fired first.”

For a while, Goebel put off running for public office and instead devoted his energy to obtaining control of the political party machinery in his home county. To get reelected in 1897, he had to wrest control of Kenton County away from Sanford allies Theodore Hallam and Harvey Meyers. He started out in petty ward politics, organizing labor against capital and targeting any business financed by more than two owners.Before long, he had a smoothly running political machine with statewide influence. He had “his own men” holding offices in the city and the county governments, and each of “his” office-holders hired only “his men.” By 1897, Goebel had become Kentucky ’s first real boss. Even as Democrats became divided over the gold standard (which Goebel supported) and Democratic power began to decline, Goebel was being called “Kenton King.”

In 1899, tired of having to wrangle with the governor to get things done, Goebel decided to run for the office. In an era when nominating conventions were frequently loud and raucous, this nine-day Democratic convention, held in June at the old Music Hall on Market Street in Louisville, was, as the New York Times described it on June 24,


of Congress

Nominations of Goebel, Stone, and Hardin were made on the fourth day of the convention, which had been so noisy and threatening that Redwine asked the chief of police to bring in some of his men before the voting began. For four days and nights, numerous rounds of delegate voting took place, with each candidate receiving about one-third of the votes. It was hot and humid in the cigar-smoke-filled hall, and delegates were tired and angry. Cowbells rang and horns blew while the band played “Dixie” over and over. Bored with the stalled votes, the delegates wanted to go home and reconvene at a later date. Then Goebel, sitting in a far corner of the stage and observing the bickering, stood up to speak, and the hallas have the operators and manipulators of the trusts.” Proud that he was a selfmade man, Goebel played up his own humble origins:

I have not had a powerful family connection nor wealth to aid me. I am not the chance bearer of a great name made famous by somebody else. I sprang from the ranks of the common people, and there is nothing under heaven’s sun of which I am prouder.

In his campaign speeches, Goebel talked about the close relationship his opponent, William Taylor, had with the railroads. He reminded his audience that Republican Governor Bradley had vetoed nearly every reform bill that Goebel and his colleagues had written. On many occasions, Goebel stated, “I believe that the railroad corporations should have a bit in their mouths and


against Milton Smith and his two cronies for criminal libel and put them in jail for at least two years.

Much to everyone’s surprise, on November 7, 1899, Goebel narrowly lost the election by a little over 2,000 votes. He took the news graciously, thanking his supporters and saying he planned to go home to rest awhile.

Goebel’s supporters, however, did not give up so easily. They identified thousands of ballots to be thrown out and convinced Goebel to ask for a recount. As specified in the state constitution, contested elections in the governor and lieutenant-governor races were to be decided by two Contest Committees, one for each office; each committee made up of eleven members of the legislature. Names of each legislator were written on separate slips of paperthat were rolled tightly and dropped into a box. The clerk then shook the box and drew eleven names, reading each name aloud. The committee to decide on the governor ’s race had nine Democrats, one Republican, and one Populist, who, Klotter says, usually voted Democratic.

On the morning of January 30, 1900, shortly after 11:00, Goebel was walking briskly across the Capitol grounds with two friends. It was clear and cold that morning, but eerily quiet and vacant. Over the four preceding days more than a thousand armed mountain men from eastern Kentucky, a Republican stronghold, had blanketed the grounds. Governor Taylor and Caleb Powers, his secretary of state, had sent for them to protest the election recount and to intimidate the Contest Committee that was meeting.

The Louisville


Courier-Journal declared, “Armed Mob of Mountaineers Invade Frankfort to Bully the Legislature.” Reports said L&N had brought the “Mountain Army ” to Frankfort free of charge, but the railroad denied it. That morning of January 30 not a single mountaineer was in sight.

When Goebel was a few feet from the broad steps of the entrance to the three-story state Capitol Building, a shot rang out from the Executive Building. A bullet struck Goebel in the chest on his right side. Trying to reach in his pocket for his pistol, he dropped to the ground. When he tried to rise, his friend Jack Chinn exclaimed, “Lie down or they will shoot you again.”

Goebel was hemorrhaging. Men frantically rushed to carry him back to the Capital Hotel, where Dr. E.in the streets. Many onlookers carried guns and pistols.

Within a half hour, Governor Taylor declared a state of emergency and ordered the militia to Frankfort. He ordered the legislature to adjourn immediately and meet the next week in London, Kentucky, a solidly Republican location, miles away from Frankfort. Reporting threats and rumors of assassinations, newspapers carried headlines warning of violence and bloodshed, such as “Irresponsible Armed Men Brought to Frankfort.”

That night, Democrats from both Houses quietly searched for a place that was not barred by soldiers and yet large enough for them to meet to vote on the Contest Committee’s decision. They finally found a secret location—right there in the Capital Hotel, where Goebel lay dying. By entering the lobby a few at a time, they escaped detection.


Meanwhile, as snow fell outside, Taylor and his colleagues remained locked in their offices in the Executive Building, protected by armed soldiers.

The next day, January 31, the Contest Committee declared Goebel had received the highest number of legal votes and had been lawfully entitled to the governorship of Kentucky for the term beginning December 12, 1899. The report was signed by a quorum of senators and representatives, all Democrats.

Chief Justice James H. Hazelrigg, along with several others, rushed to the hotel and swore Goebel in as governor. Although Republicans tried to spread the rumor that he was dead when he was sworn in, eight witnesses testified that Goebel, dressed in a clean white nightshirt, raised his right hand and took the oath of office. When asked to signto speak, Goebel was sworn in again, this time by a circuit judge. John C. W. Beckham was also sworn in again as lieutenant governor and acting governor. The first act Beckham performed was to replace the Adjutant General Collier with his own man, John B. Castleman, who promptly organized a militia to guard Beckham and the streets of Frankfort.

For the time being, Kentucky had two governors, two lieutenant governors, two adjutant generals, two militias, and two legislatures, each conducting its own business as if the other side did not exist.

With his lungs filled with blood, Goebel died at 6:44 on the evening of February 3, 1900. Before he was buried, two prominent Republicans, David W. Fairleigh, a lawyer from Louisville, and John Marshall, lieutenant governor under Taylor,


and wanted the courts to decide his fate. After Louisville Circuit Court judge Emmet Field ruled in favor of the Democrats, Republicans went to the Court of Appeals, which upheld the lower court’s decision. The Republicans then took the question to the U.S. Supreme Court, which said, on May 21, 1900, the issue was not a federal one and sent it back down to the state. Fearing prosecution, Taylor fled to Indiana, where he lived the rest of life.

By May 22, 1900, life in Kentucky had finally settled down. The double governments had disappeared. Beckham was governor, and peace prevailed in the old Bluegrass State—at least for a while. The only question remaining was, Who killed Goebel? To this date, we have no answer.Wikia is not accessible if you’ve made further modifications.

Buddy "Goldfinger" Schaub (born Louis Schaub) is the trombonist for American ska punk band Less Than Jake. Buddy met Less Than Jake when his band at the time, Dig Dug, was opening for them at the Hardback in Florida. After talking to Vinnie that night he went to a practice and later entered the band becoming the second horn player to join Less Than Jake. The nickname "Goldfinger," as Vinnie describes, originated after the first time they met when Buddy said he wanted to play with them. When they arranged a first practice with him Vinnie couldn't remember his name from being drunk that night so he


dubbed him "Goldfinger" after the gold trombone he played.

Around the time of their first tour he went to Europe with friends and was filled-in for by baritone sax player, Derron Nuhfer, who stayed in Less Than Jake until 2000, even after Buddy's return. He plays bass guitar live whenever Roger Manganelli, the normal bass player, plays second guitar. Buddy has been in Less Than Jake the longest out of all their horn players.

He performs the vocals on a single track for Less Than Jake, Mississippi Mud.nonprofit consumer organization with headquarters in Montgomery County, Maryland.

On Palm Sunday, 03-24-02, the St Therese Church parishioners, diocesan representatives and community leaders broke ground for a new worship facility. The ceremony took place after the 11: 30am mass with Bishop John M. D'Arcy and Father Joseph Rulli presiding. Unlike other groundbreakings, all parishioners were invited to bring their own shovels. The groundbreaking continues a four-year pledge drive which was initiated on Nov. 1st, 2000, (The Feast of All Saints) for a new church and renovation of the current worship space for classroom use.

The original St. Therese Parish was an "army-style" chapel from Baer Field that was relocated from the air base to the Waynedale parish grounds in 1948. The old Army Chapel caught fire in 1950 and then again in 1970. After the second fire St.Therese made a decision to redesign the school into a temporary school/church combination. In the mid-sixties portable classrooms had to be brought in to accommodate the needs of the school.

At present, 200 students are enrolled in kindergarten through eighth grade. More than 2200 parishioners attend mass in the "temporary church" created in the school 32 years ago. The new church will seat six hundred people and the old church will be remodeled for exclusive use as a school. Completion of the project is scheduled for Palm Sunday, 2003, at a cost of 3.35 million dollars. The master building plan calls for the addition of new parish offices, including space for meetings, adult education, and the extension of the existing parish hall. Bishop John M. D'Arcy said at the


WASHINGTON: Harley-Davidson has announced to shift some of the production of its iconic motorcycles overseas against the imposition of steep import tariffs by the European Union, leaving US President Donald Trump “surprised”.

Trump, who has been taking up the case of tariffs on Harley-Davidson by India, which in part is responsible for the current trade tension between the two countries, said he is surprised by such a decision by the motorcycle manufacturer.

In fact, he accused the Wisconsin-based company of raising white flag.

Outside the US, Harley-Davidson has manufacturing facilities in India, Brazil and Australia.

The company in its US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing on Monday said that new retaliatory tariffs by the European Union (an increase from six percent to 31 per cent) will result in an incremental costRon Sparks (comedian)

There, in the high, cold Andes, the traditional way to preserve the vegetable was by freeze-drying. In the 16th century, the Spanish conquistadors brought the potato back to Europe. But this tuber failed to catch on – at first.

Over the centuries, a handful of European rulers recognized the potato’s potential as a useful food crop and tried to popularize it. Marie Antoinette even wore potato flowers in her hair in an attempt to make it fashionable. But it was the fact that the potato could be grown successfully on fallow land that caused it to be cultivated on a large scale in Europe by the end of the 18th century.

this Forfeiture Order, we impose a monetary forfeiture of $6,000
against Lancaster Educational Broadcasting Foundation ("Lancaster" or
"Licensee"), licensee of noncommercial educational Station WFCO(FM),
Lancaster, Ohio, for violating Section 399B of the Communications Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), and Section 73.503(d) of the
Commission's rules by broadcasting prohibited advertisements over the
Station.
I. background
2. This case arises from a complaint made to the Commission alleging that
noncommercial educational Station WFCO(FM) broadcast prohibited
underwriting announcements during its broadcast of Capital University
college football games during the 2006 season. Thereafter, the Bureau
inquired of the licensee concerning the allegations contained in the
complaint. Lancaster responded to the LOI on September 14, 2007.
3. On February 10, 2009, the Bureau issued a Notice of Apparent Liability
for Forfeiture ("NAL"), finding that the Licensee had apparently violated
the pertinent statute and Commission rules, and proposinga licensee's inability to pay. In its NAL Response, Lancaster
erroneously compares itself to the licensee in Discussion Radio, Inc. In
Discussion Radio, the Commission did reduce the forfeiture based on
inability to pay, but only after first considering the gross revenues of
the licensee. Although the Commission in Discussion Radio did also
evaluate the licensee's losses and modest income, the Commission reduced
the forfeiture because it held that the forfeiture amount either
approached or exceeded the licensee's gross revenues.
8. In contrast, in this case, the forfeiture proposed by the NAL does not
exceed or even approach the gross revenues of Lancaster; it falls well
within the percentage range that our precedents have found acceptable.
While Lancaster has also cited its net losses and low net income, the
Commission has held that "other financial indicators such as net losses,

Payroll processor ADP reported construction jobs increased by 48,000 in December, one of the strongest gains of any industry.

Written by

Paul Davidson
| USA Today

Some economists are raising their forecasts for Friday's government report on December employment after a private survey found the strongest business hiring in more than a year.

Private payroll processor ADP said Wednesday that businesses added 238,000 jobs in December, the most since November 2011.

ADP has had mixed success in foretelling Labor's more closely watched report of private and public-sector job gains. But the firm's accuracy has improved since it began teaming with Moody's Analytics in fall 2012 to compile the report, with the two surveys differing by an average 35,000 to ...Why it matters: The report that Trump tried to fire Mueller

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump pushed back Friday against reports that he ordered White House lawyer Don McGahn to fire special counsel Robert Mueller last June.

“Fake news, folks. Fake news. Typical New York Times fake stories,” Trump retorted dismissively when asked about it by reporters


at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

The reports, first by the Times and then others, said Trump backed off on his attempt to fire the man who is investigating him, his election campaign’s Russian contacts and his firings of FBI Director James Comey and National Security Adviser Michael Flynn — but only after lawyer McGahn refused to relay his directive to the Justice Department and threatened to quit if Trump pressed the issue.

On August 24 and 25, while working on a certain long, horizontal pipe he was coughing a great deal, and on the latter day quit work and went home ill, and died of double lobar pneumonia on August 29th. The claimants contend and the jury found that on those days Broadway inhaled large quantities of sulphur dioxide gas which irritated and broke down the tissues of his lungs, which resulted naturally in the pneumonia which killed him. The appellant contends that he died of disease, perhaps an occupational disease, but not of any accidental injury within the Compensation Law.

It is also testified that a cold does not naturally cause pneumonia, because the cold is confined to the membranes of the nose and throat, while pneumonia attacks only the lungs. On this testimony the jury could find that this case of double pneumonia was an infection naturally resulting from a physical injury to both lungs caused by the inhalation of sulphur dioxide gas. It is proven that sulphur dioxide gas, in the presence of the moisture in the lungs, becomes sulphuric acid, the power of which to destroy protecting skin or membrane is well known. The infection of such a wound in the lungs by pneumonia germs is not unlike the infection of an external wound by other noxious germs. Both are covered byone, escaping only at the openings where the welder was at work; so he might get an accumulation of it. Broadway on his last day at work was heard to exclaim: "This gas is hell." Putting this all together, the jury might conclude that Broadway did encounter an unusual and harmful amount of gas which then and there physically injured the tissues of his lungs. The witness who testified to Broadway's complaint of the gas was positive it was made on the last day of work, though with less positiveness he said they were working on a pipe which was proven by other evidence to have been fixed several weeks earlier. He was testifying a year and a half after the event, and the jury were not bound

he is the wizard and she stole his magical abilities.
There exists several parallel worlds and our world is one of them. Every characters have an alter-ego in each world.
The sister went into another world where she is treated like a queen. I think that she had to switch places with her alter-ego from another parallel world that replaces her in the world she left.
The boy meets the alter-ego of his sister from our world and discovers that his own alter-ego died at birth. At some point he comes into our world and is sick during a car ride.
The boy had a total of 9 lives, represented by matches in a box. Several of them are burnt:

one for his death at birth
one for his deathmatches detail matches as well, which our hero definitely didn't know were special:

Janet discovers a book of nine matches, five of which are already burnt. When Cat foolishly strikes a match and finds himself engulfed by flames, Janet's suspicions are confirmed: Cat, who has always believed himself utterly lacking in magical ability, is actually a nine-lived enchanter.

So yes... Cat has nine lives... and is magical.
And his sister has indeed been stealing his magic:

Gwendolen has been leeching Cat's magic and wasting his lives to fuel her own magic.

The breakdown of his lives and deaths are as follows:
He only has three lives remaining, having lost

the first life when he only just survived being born
the second when Gwendolen put his lives into a book of matches (to make them easier


for her to use)
the third when he drowned in the boating accident that killed his parents
the fourth when Gwendolen used it to turn his fiddle into a cat (which he kept as a pet and named Fiddle)
the fifth when Gwendolen used it to take her into her new world where she reigned as queen
and the sixth when he burned a match from his 'life book' of matches in an attempt to prove that he didn't have nine lives and the matches weren't connected to him

Also worth noting:

Dutch and Finnish-language translations were published in 1980, followed by German. Danish, Italian, and French editions were published in the 1990s (when the four early novels were in print); later Polish and Spanish, Chinese and Vietnamese, Serbian.
