Brookhaven Elementary School kindergarten students wore Grinch hats that said, “My heart grew three sizes today,” during the school’s annual Grinch Day. Celebrating Dr. Seuss’ cherished character from “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” the day’s activities were an opportunity for students to spread kindness, just like the Whos in Whoville as they converted the Grinch one Christmas Eve.
Teacher Jennifer Drake told her students, “Today is about kindness and working together, giving compliments and helping others.”
Each of the classrooms was set up with various activities that supported English language arts, math, and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) activities. Students constructed sleighs out of Lincoln Logs, tested their pattern skills with the Out Run the Grinch game, labeled the Grinch with vocabulary words, and rolled the dice to count the number of water beads to fill the Grinch’s heart. They also built Christmas trees out of plastic cups, crafted paper Grinch faces and, of course, settled on the carpet to read “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.”

Public schools in Portland, Oregon, are teaching children that Thanksgiving is about genocide and racism. Mary Grabar reports, "Pity the poor child in Portland, Oregon, schools. While many still think of Thanksgiving as a time to come together with family and friends to celebrate our multicultural heritage over a festive meal, eighth-graders in the Antifa epicenter have the notion drummed into them that Thanksgiving really is a celebration of the genocide of the Indians by greedy capitalist Europeans."
We as Americans have a disheartening way of draining the meaning from holidays. Our culture has made Christmas and Easter totally secular. July 4 is all about booze and loud noises, and we can no longer tell the difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day.
For the offended "Woke" folk to go after the few trace amounts of thankfulness left in the Thanksgiving holiday, is truly evil.
As Grabar pointed out, what these children have had "drummed" into their heads is a lie. This is not enlightenment—it is darkness. As Jesus warned us, "See to it, then, that the light within you is not darkness" (Luke 11:35, NIV). This is especially egregious, because school is supposed to be about learning, not about lies. And teachers should care enough about children not to lie to them.
How and why should Christians defend Thanksgiving? That we cannot immediately answer how and why speaks to our present condition before God. And are we surprised that we can't answer them?
The steady diet of "feel good" sermons being preached in most churches have not equipped us to push back against the tide of wickedness. We were caught flat-footed when marriage was destroyed and the death culture of abortion took the land.
The concept of Thanksgiving is very biblical: The word thanksgiving occurs 29 times in the Bible, and the concept of giving thanks is found in 93 additional verses. Most of us know Psalm 100 by heart, especially verse 4: "Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name!" So, it is small wonder those who serve the powers of darkness and who have plans for evil hate the spirit of gratitude behind Thanksgiving.
There are epic reasons to defend Thanksgiving: The oxygen of freedom is gratitude. Any day that forces us to stop, take a deep breath and thank God, adds to our national lifespan. What the socialism-promoting teachers in Portland, Oregon, are doing is sowing seeds to bring about an early death for America.
If there are such things as "big fat lies," this one is morbidly obese. In fact, the origin of Thanksgiving is, in itself, the very rebuke all those teachers in Portland need. Far from genocide and greed, Thanksgiving came to us out of the purest motivation possible.
Cheryl Magness wrote, "Sarah Josepha Hale, the author of the children's song 'Mary Had a Little Lamb,' has historically received much of the credit for the establishment of Thanksgiving as a national holiday. Pilgrim Hall, a museum in Plymouth, Massachusetts, dedicated to preserving and passing down the history and stories of the Pilgrims, calls Hale the 'godmother of Thanksgiving.'"
Hale was an established poet and writer, when in 1837, she began writing a series of editorials advocating for a national Thanksgiving holiday. George Washington, John Adams and James Madison had issued Thanksgiving proclamations in the early years of the nation, but after Madison's 1799 proclamation, the practice had ceased.
As the Civil War approached and the nation became increasingly divided, Hale saw a national Thanksgiving observance as a means of bridging the divide. On Sept. 28, 1863, just under three months after the Battle of Gettysburg, she wrote a letter to President Abraham Lincoln entreating him to call for a national celebration of Thanksgiving. On Oct. 3 of that year, he did so.
Thanksgiving Should Bridge Divides and Cultivate Unity
A review of Hale's campaign to make Thanksgiving a national holiday is a good way to remember what Thanksgiving is about. In her writings, Hale emphasized our identity as Americans, our need for community and our dependence on God—the very things we too often forget in our own observances.
In 1860, Hale wrote:
Everything that contributes to bind us in one vast empire together, to quicken the sympathy that makes us feel, from the icy North to the sunny South, that we are one family, each a member of a great and free Nation, not merely the unit of a remote locality, is worthy of being cherished. We have sought to reawaken and increase this sympathy, believing that the fine filaments of the affections are stronger than laws to keep the Union of our States sacred in the hearts of our people... We believe our Thanksgiving Day, if fixed and perpetuated, will be a great and sanctifying promoter of this national spirit.
To make something beautiful into something ugly, to exalt the vile above the sublime, seems to be the stock in trade of the modern left, composed of American Communists bent on destroying this nation. They must not be allowed to get away with their lies ... especially not their lies to children.
I say it as much with a fervent prayer as a greeting: Happy Thanksgiving and God bless America! {eoa}

Thanksgiving means real, not ideological, inclusiveness. President Abraham Lincoln profoundly demonstrated this fundamental point. On Oct. 3, 1863, the White House issued the Thanksgiving Proclamation, declaring the last Thursday of November to be a “day of thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens.” He also humbly requested “the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore … peace, harmony, and [...]

La Navidad calienta motores en las plataformas de streaming, y somos muchos los que ya hemos puesto el árbol, comprado nuestro vestido con brilli brilli para Nochevieja y colocado los calcetines para que ni Papá Noel ni los Reyes se pierdan. Por eso ya va siendo hora de que comience también la maratón de películas navideñas en la televisión, tanto las clásicas como las novedades que nos traen las plataformas de streaming. Te enseñamos las mejores películas de Navidad de 2018 de Netflix, HBO, Movistar+ y Amazon Prime Video para que el espíritu navideño te posea por completo.
Cambio de princesa
Las protagonistas, una panadera de Chicago y una futura princesa, se parecen tanto que podrían pasar por la misma persona. Por eso la princesa planea hacerse pasar la una por la otra durante las Navidades. Las dos aceptan, pero pronto descubrirán que no va a ser tan sencillo como esperaban.
Al estilo del Tú a Londres y yo a California de Lindsay Lohan, Cambio de princesa, lo nuevo de Netflix que se estrena el 16 de noviembre, tiene como protagonista absoluta a Vanessa Hudgens (High School Musical), y ha venido para sorprendernos estas Navidades.
Sam Baldwin, un arquitecto viudo, es engañado por su hijo de ocho años para contar su historia en un programa de radio. Una de las miles de mujeres que lo escuchan y quedan prendadas de su encanto es Annie Reed, una joven periodista que está a punto de casarse. Él decide volver a salir con mujeres, y ella duda sobre lo que es el amor.
Tom Hanks y Meg Ryan protagonizan Algo para recordar, una emblemática comedia romántica de los 90 ambientada en la época navideña y que tiene mucho amor.
Crónicas de Navidadse estrenará el próximo 22 de noviembre, y cuenta la historia de Kate y Teddy, dos hermanos que acaban colándose en el trineo de Santa Claus para grabarle con su cámara. Están a punto de cargarse las Navidades, pero pronto formarán una alianza con él para que todo siga el cauce previsto.
¿Kurt Russell haciendo de Papá Noel? Si creías haberlo visto todo, es que aún no habías descubierto la Navidad en Netflix.
Tom Hanks es el maquinista del Polar Express, un tren que llega a casa de un niño en Navidad para que haga realidad sus sueños. Polar Express es una película de Robert Zemeckis, nominada a tres Oscar, y fue la primera en rodarse por completo en performance capture, un sistema de animación que captura los movimientos del actor y los transforma en imágenes animadas en tres dimensiones. Mucha nieve y magia en esta adaptación del libro "El expreso polar", de Chris Van Allsburg.
En el pueblo de Villaquién todos celebran la Navidad menos el Grinch, un ser gruñón y peludo que vive en lo alto de la montaña y cuya única compañía es un perro. Una dulce niña intentará averiguar por qué el Grinch detesta las fiestas navideñas.
Tanto si odias la Navidad como si la adoras, El Grinch es una de las elecciones más divertidas para esta época del año. Esta comedia, donde Jim Carrey brilla con su peculiar humor, fue ganadora de un Oscar en 2001 y tiene una nueva versión animada en los cines.
La nueva película de Bradley Walsh es una producción original de Netflix y cuenta la historia de una fotógrafa en una mala racha (Kat Graham) que hereda un antiguo calendario de adviento cuyo contenido parece tener la habilidad de predecir el futuro.
Es Navidad y Ram Pelzer (Hoyt Axton), se adentra en el barrio chino de una ciudad en busca del regalo perfecto para su hijo Billy (Zach Galligan). Allí encuentra a Gizmo, un encantador Mogwai cuyo cuidado exige mucha responsabilidad: no debe darle la luz brillante, no debe estar en contacto con agua y, por mucho que llore, nunca, nunca, puede comer después de medianoche. El problema es que no será tan fácil cumplirlas como parece.
Por mi parte, no imagino una Navidad sin Gizmo, la ternura personificada. Mucho humor, acción y toque navideño que hacen de Los Gremlinsun clásico del cine fantástico perfecto para disfrutar en estas fechas.
Ellen (Eliza Taylor), es la irresponsable heredera de un gran emporio de la industria del regalo. Para darle una lección, su padre decide que a cambio de recibir su regalo navideño, Ellen deberá viajar de incógnito a entregar la tradicional carta de Navidad a su tío Zeke, el extraño socio de su padre.
Herencia Navideña es un “drama ligero romántico” y fue una de las apuestas de Netflix para las pasadas Navidades. Este año también está disponible para los rezagados que no la vieron, o para los que sí lo hicieron y quieren repetir.
Cuando los McCallister se marchan a París para pasar las vacaciones de Navidad, se olvidan de un pequeño detalle: su hijo Kevin no está con ellos en el avión. Para el pequeño es una maravillosa noticia, al fin podrá hacer todo lo que sus padres le prohíben, hasta que una pareja de ladrones intenta robar en su casa. Solo en casa es la comedia americana que transformó en estrella a su protagonista Macaulay Culkin y es ideal para que el espíritu navideño por fin entre en ti.
Amber (Rose McIver) es una joven periodista que debe cubrir en Navidad la sucesión del trono del polémico príncipe Richard (Ben Lamb) en el pequeño reino de Aldovia. Tras una desastrosa rueda de prensa, Amber decide colarse en el palacio real para intentar sacar algo en exclusiva. Allí será confundida con Martha, la nueva maestra de la princesa Emily (Honor Kneafsey). Amber irá conociendo mejor al príncipe durante los días que pasan hasta la ceremonia de sucesión, disputada por el conde Simon (Theo Devaney), primo del heredero y segundo en la línea de sucesión.
Un príncipe para Navidad fue de lo más sonado en las pasadas Navidades de Netflix. Esta producción original del gigante del streaming es según Espinof, un placer culpable. ¿Te vas a resistir a este romance navideño? Y si te enamoras, Netflix también tiene la segunda parte, Un príncipe de Navidad: La boda real.
En una pequeña ciudad española se inventan una campaña caritativa de Navidad destinada a familias ricas con el lema "Cene con un pobre". Para participar en la cabalgata que organizan contratan a Plácido (Cassen), un honrado trabajador, y a su motocarro. Él acepta, pero justo ese día le vence una letra para pagar el vehículo y empieza a luchar con bancos, notarios y ricos que no harán nada para impedir el embargo de su único medio de vida.
Un clásico entre los clásicos. Luis García Berlanga nos sumerge en la España más tradicional con una comedia de 1961 que llegó a estar nominada al Óscar a la Mejor película de habla no inglesa.
Impulsado por el whisky barato y la codicia, Willie Stokes (Billy Bob Thornton) de nuevo hace equipo con su compañero Marcus (Tony Cox), para planear un robo en la víspera de Navidad. La entidad elegida esta vez es una organización benéfica de Chicago dirigida por Diane (Christina Hendricks), una mujer con un corazón de oro y una líbido de acero. A la banda se les une Sunny Soke (Kathy Bates), que eleva el nivel de ambición de la banda, al tiempo que baja los estándares de comportamiento criminal.
Tras el éxito de Bad Santa, Billy Bob Thornton repite en su papel de Willie Soke, el Santa Claus más irreverente del cine. Esta comedia navideña, es ácida, satírica y muy divertida, y la elección más gamberra de esta lista.
Jack es el rey de la Ciudad de Halloween. Supervisa las delicias macabras, los escalofríos y las sorpresas que se exportan al mundo real, pero está aburrido de esa rutina. Un día, por accidente, Jack tropieza con una entrada a la Ciudad de la Navidad y se queda extasiado con los colores, los juguetes y la alegría que ve. Obsesionado con la idea de hacerse con el control de la Navidad, convence a sus súbditos para que lo ayuden a suplantar a Santa.
Recuerdo como si fuera ayer cuando fui al cine siendo una niña a ver esta película de animación de Tim Burton. Flipe tanto con Jack y con este gótico cuento navideño, que aún hoy tengo un muñeco suyo disfrazado de Santa Claus en la estantería de mi salón. La mezcla perfecta entre la Navidad y Halloween tiene nombre y es Pesadilla antes de Navidad.
Chris (Ryan Reynolds) es un buen chico, aunque un poco pardillo. El día de la graduación del Instituto decide armarse de valor y confesarle su amor a Jamie (Amy Smart), pero ella le quiere... solo como amigo. Diez años más tarde, Chris se ha convertido en un atractivo y prometedor productor musical. Su éxito con las mujeres le ha hecho olvidar su fracaso con Jamie. O al menos, eso es lo que él cree. La gira con la estrella del pop Samantha James (Anna Faris), le obliga a hacer escala en su antiguo pueblo en Navidad. Muy a su pesar, va a reencontrarse con su familia, sus amigos... y con Jamie.
Si has visto Deadpool sabrás que Ryan Reynolds tiene una maravillosa vis cómica. Y esta comedia romántica tan navideña es una demostración más de ese talento humorístico. Desenfadada y con mucha nieve, Solo amigos es perfecta para ver después de un atracón de polvorones y bajar esas calorías de más con carcajadas.
El detective John McClane (Bruce Willis) decide viajar a Los Ángeles en Navidad, cargado de regalos, para intentar rehacer su vida familiar. Al llegar a la oficina de su mujer Holly ignora lo que Gruber y una docena de terroristas planean: sellar el edificio y tomar como rehenes a los empleados. Pero McClane no ha sido visto, y ahora, solo con un arma y su valor y astucia, deberá desbaratar el plan de los asaltantes.
Jungla de cristal es la película navideña con más acción (y la mejor según algunos) que encontrarás para estas fechas. Porque en Navidad también pueden gustarte las balas, los puñetazos y los héroes americanos.
George Bailey (James Stewart) es un honrado ciudadano que siempre se ha sacrificado por los demás. Dirige un pequeño banco familiar, a pesar de los intentos de un poderoso banquero por arruinarlo y abrumado por la desaparición de una importante suma de dinero, decide suicidarse. Pero entonces aparece Clarence (Henry Travers), un ángel de segunda clase que es enviado a la Tierra con la misión de disuadirle, y ganarse así sus alas. Para ello, le muestra cuál habría sido la vida de aquellos que le rodean si él no hubiera existido.
Este clásico de Frank Capra, basado en el cuento de The Greatest Gift de Philip Van Doren Stern, es la típica película para ver abrazado a los tuyos mientras una lagrimita te recorre la mejilla. Todos influimos en la vida de los demás, aunque a veces pensemos que no, y Qué bello es vivir es perfecta para recordarnos que somos importantes.
Un sacerdote (Álex Angulo) cree haber descifrado el mensaje secreto del Apocalipsis según San Juan: el Anticristo nacerá el 25 de diciembre de 1995 en Madrid. Para impedir el nacimiento del hijo de Satanás, el cura se alía con José María (Santiago Segura), un joven aficionado al death metal. Ambos intentan averiguar en qué parte de Madrid tendrá lugar el apocalíptico acontecimiento. Con la ayuda del profesor Cavan (Armando de Razza), presentador de un programa de televisión de carácter esotérico y sobrenatural, el cura y José María invocan al diablo en una extraña ceremonia.
Alex de la Iglesia firma este film, el más satánico y siniestro de nuestra navideña lista, que es una mezcla de comedia, terror y thriller. El día de la bestia se llevó seis premios Goya, incluyendo el de Mejor director, y aporta el toque más grunge a tu Navidad cinéfila.
Howard Langston (Arnold Schwarzenegger) es uno de esos padres que suele pasar poco tiempo en casa con su familia. Cuando se acercan las navidades, le promete a su hijo que tendrá el mejor regalo del mundo, el muñeco del superhéroe de moda, Turboman. Cuando Howard se quiere dar cuenta, el día de Navidad está a la vuelta de la esquina y no se ha preocupado en absoluto de comprar el deseado juguete. Ahora está agotado en todos los centros comerciales y su única esperanza es el sorteo de una radio local.
No podíamos dejar fuera a Arnold Schwarzenegger y su odisea buscando el regalo de su hijo, Jake Lloyd (Anakin en la saga de Star Wars). Esta vez Terminator no tirará de fuerza ni de armas, sino de humor en una comedia clásica de Navidad.
¿De verdad pensabas que no incluiríamos Love Actually
en una lista de películas navideñas? Desde hace 15 años no imaginamos una Navidad sin ella. Es todo lo que debería ser el espíritu navideño: está cargada de amor, de ternura, de regalos, de nieve, de amistad y de familia. Es realmente divertida, dulce y se ha convertido en una tradición navideña tan importante como comerse las uvas de fin de año.
Ocho historias que se cruzan en un reparto de esos que enamoran. Hugh Grant, Martine McCutcheon, Colin Firth, Emma Thompson, Alan Rickman, Martin Freeman, Keira Knightley, Andrew Lincoln, Liam Neeson o Bill Nighy son algunas de las caras conocidas de esta comedia romántica británica que nos enamoró desde el primer día. Love Actually es Navidad, ni más ni menos.

Gli Usa hanno saputo trarre grandi vantaggi economici dalla Prima guerra (imperialistica) mondiale, tanto da assumere alla sua conclusione una posizione per la prima volta dominante nell’economia mondiale. Gli Stati Uniti avevano atteso il momento opportuno per entrare nel conflitto, dopo aver sfruttato per diversi anni la propria posizione neutrale per lucrare extra-profitti vendendo materiale bellico e altre merci ai paesi impegnati nella guerra, in particolare all’Impero britannico e francese. Inoltre durante questi anni le grandi potenze internazionali imperialiste concorrenti degli Stati Uniti si erano distrutte a vicenda, in una spaventosa guerra di logoramento. In tal modo le enormi riserve auree delle altre grandi potenze imperialiste erano andate in buona misura a riempire i forzieri delle banche degli Stati Uniti. Poteva così iniziare ad affermarsi a livello internazionale quel signoraggio del dollaro che andrà compiendosi pochi anni dopo nel corso del secondo conflitto (imperialista) mondiale.
Il democratico Wilson era riuscito a ottenere un secondo mandato come presidente assicurando le masse popolari statunitensi, assolutamente contrarie ad andarsi a farsi uccidere in una guerra fra potenze imperialiste europee, che gli Usa sarebbero rimasti neutrali. Del resto la politica di neutralità attiva aveva consentito un grande rilancio dell’economia statunitense che aveva lucrato ingenti extra-profitti, essendo in buona parte venuta meno, a causa della guerra, la concorrenza straniera su quanto restava del mercato mondiale e trovando amplissimi sbocchi nei mercati paganti costretti dalle esigenze belliche ad acquistare in tempi brevi a prezzi superiori a quelli di mercato. Inoltre, le spaventose distruzioni belliche avevano spazzato via la precedente prima grande crisi di sovrapproduzione che era stata fra le principali ragioni strutturali, ovvero socio-economiche, del conflitto.
Wilson si era deciso a entrare in guerra, rompendo la promessa elettorale cui doveva la rielezione, dopo la Rivoluzione russa e l’uscita dalla guerra del paese dei soviet. La fine della guerra con la Russia aveva permesso alle forze degli imperi centrali di dislocare il grosso delle proprie truppe sul fronte occidentale, rompendo l’equilibrio che si era creato negli anni precedenti con le truppe anglo-francesi, che tanto aveva favorito l’arricchimento degli Stati Uniti. Ora, invece, la guerra rischiava di durare poco, anche per l’eccezionale successo della propaganda bolscevica contro la guerra imperialista e, inoltre, gli Usa rischiavano di non poter essere rimborsati dei propri enormi prestiti all’impero britannico e francese se essi fossero stati costretti alla resa e a ripagare le spese belliche dagli Imperi centrali.
Inoltre l’uscita dalla guerra dell’ultrareazionario Impero russo, consentiva alla propaganda democratica statunitense di spacciare l’entrata nel conflitto degli Usa come una crociata per la democrazia e la pace contro i guerrafondai imperi centrali. In tal modo gli Stati Uniti non solo avrebbero favorito una relativamente rapida sconfitta degli imperi asburgico, guglielmino e turco-ottomano, ma avrebbero potuto fronteggiare il successo della propaganda bolscevica nella sua lotta contro la guerra imperialista. Tanto più che Wilson aveva introdotto nei propri quattordici punti, un vero e proprio manifesto dell’entrata in guerra degli Stati Uniti, oltre alla parola d’ordine già bolscevica del diritto dei popoli all’autodeterminazione, che così grandi consensi mieteva a livello internazionale, la creazione per la prima volta nella storia di una Società delle nazioni, che avrebbe dovuto permettere la realizzazione dell’utopia della pace perpetua, tagliando l’erba sotto i piedi ai comunisti, che miravano a trasformare la guerra imperialista in una guerra civile rivoluzionaria volta a eliminare con l’imperialismo la principale causa dei conflitti.
D’altra parte, nonostante tutti questi sofisticati strumenti ideologici, Wilson non aveva tenuto nel debito conto che la volontà collettiva nazional-popolare che gli aveva consentito l’elezione per il suo impegno a mantenere la pace nel paese, si sarebbe dissolta al momento delle elezioni, visto il clamoroso tradimento delle proposte elettorali da parte del Partito democratico. Tanto più che proprio il presidente democratico aveva reintrodotto lo stato di segregazione razziale a livello federale nei confronti della popolazione afro-americana che aveva abolito il repubblicano Lincoln. Inoltre, alla faccia del principio di autodeterminazione, Wilson aveva continuato a considerare l’America latina come il proprio cortile di casa, dando vita a una escalation degli interventi imperialisti, in particolare nei paesi dell’America centrale, per impedire che i governi democraticamente eletti potessero portare avanti una politica contraria agli interessi degli Stati Uniti.
Così, mentre il tradizionale elettorato popolare democratico fortemente deluso disertò in masse le urne, la destra repubblicana riuscì con parole d’ordine populiste a motivare i propri elettori e a conquistare nuovi elettori nei ceti subalterni con la proposta demagogica di assumere nel dopoguerra una posizione isolazionista, che avrebbe portato gli Stati Uniti a non spendersi più per la pace fra le popolazioni imperialiste europee, in nome della parola d’ordine: prima gli americani!
Le prime elezioni presidenziale del dopoguerra furono anche le prime elezioni a suffragio universale, dal momento che per contrastare la capacità di attrazione della Russia rivoluzionaria il governo statunitense era stato costretto a riconoscere il diritto di voto alle donne, dal momento che già con le rivoluzioni russe del 1917 le donne avevano conquistato per la prima volta nella storia in un grande paese gli stessi diritti degli uomini. Le elezioni videro la netta affermazione del candidato presidente repubblicano Warren Gamaliel Harding. Ripreso il controllo del governo i repubblicani impedirono agli Stati Uniti di far parte della Società delle Nazioni, nonostante quest’ultima fosse stata proposta e sostenuta proprio dagli Usa.
Durante il suo mandato (1921-1924), il presidente repubblicano attuò all’interno del paese la tradizionale politica ultraliberista, ma populisticamente abbandonò il dogma del libero mercato, alzando barriere doganali volte a colpire la concorrenza delle merci straniere nel mercato statunitense, che dopo la vittoria nella guerra si era notevolmente espanso, senza contare che i capitali sovraprodotti negli Stati Uniti potevano essere investiti con profitto nella ricostruzione post-bellica, in primo luogo delle stremate grandi potenze europee. I repubblicani si affermano ideologicamente mediante lo sciovinismo e il conformismo. Inoltre, sfruttando il fantasma del comunismo che, per la prima volta, turbava in modo significativo i sonni dei proprietari statunitensi, il governo repubblicano si distinse nella persecuzione, con i metodi più drastici e spietati, del sindacato di classe.
L’IWW (Industrial Workers of the World), l’organizzazione sindacale più radicale, è di fatto spazzata via e, più in generale, tutto il sindacalismo conflittuale è fortemente indebolito a tutto vantaggio dei sindacati gialli e neocorporativi, sempre più controllati dalla malavita organizzata. In questo periodo si sviluppa la caccia dei fascisti ai sindacalisti radicali, diversi esponenti vengono trucidati e linciati e, anche in questo caso anticipando le politiche repressive dei fascismi europei, molti militanti sono internati. In un arco di tempo brevissimo, nel gennaio 1920, vengono arrestate oltre 10.000 persone senza aver commesso nessun reato, prima i dirigenti comunisti, poi uomini politici radicali e infine semplici immigrati; talvolta torturati, sono in larga parte deportati in quanto spesso recentemente immigrati. Ciò permette ai repubblicani di attuare la politica populista di destra del blocco dell’immigrazione non clandestina giustificata con la fobia del comunismo. In tal modo, necessariamente aumentò considerevolmente l’immigrazione clandestina, ancora più strumentale a ricattare i lavoratori impiegati e a rompere la solidarietà all’interno della classe operaia. In tal modo per impedire lo sviluppo della coscienza di classe, si mirava a sviluppare una coscienza nazionalista, sciovinista e razzista.
I governi repubblicani e la crescita del capitalismo monopolistico
Sulla stessa linea si muove il successore di Harding, morto nel corso del suo primo mandato, Calvin Coolidge. Grazie alla illusoria ripresa economica, dovuta al boom degli investimenti improduttivi nelle speculazioni borsistiche, dal 1922 fino allo scoppio della bolla speculativa del 1929, Coolidge sarà rieletto presidente, per essere sostituito nelle successive presidenziali del 1928, da un nuovo candidato repubblicano orientato a destra: Herbert Hoover. Creditori di 10 miliardi di dollari dagli europei, in particolare Francia e Inghilterra, i creditori statunitensi ne ottennero in interessi circa un terzo, grazie agli investimenti dei capitali Usa sovraprodotti in Germania, favorendo la ripresa economica che gli consentì di onorare gli spaventosi interessi sul debito contratto a causa dei punitivi trattati di pace nei confronti dell’impero britannico e francese. In questi anni vi è, in particolare negli Stati Uniti, un’enorme crescita del capitale monopolistico, che va di pari passo con lo sviluppo di sempre più spaventose differenze socio-economiche fra una sempre più ristretta minoranza di proprietari dei grandi mezzi di produzione e la grande maggioranza del genere umano sempre più costretta a vendere come merce del più infimo valore la propria forza di lavoro e, all’occorrenza, quella delle proprie mogli e figli.

Blacks and the GOP have a very unhealthy relationship with each other. The GOP generally has no problem telling minorities what they feel about them, and do not generally promote nor pass policies to help African Americans out. However, there was a time when the majority of African Americans that could vote chose to align with the Republican party--the so-called party of Lincoln. In this episode of University College, we briefly discuss the history of Blacks and the Republican party--as well as why it might be time to consider a switch from the Democratic party. We'd love to hear your feedback.

Are you talking about the boot over the ball joint or the bushings themselves? The Ball joint is integral to the unit so the control arm needs to be replaced in it's entirety if it's bad. If the rubber itself is the only issue, you can by replacement rubbers.
The symptom of a bad upper control arm is a thumping or clunking over bumps. To test them you need a pry bar and there are a myriad of views on how to do that. You should see less than 1/8" of movement up and down using a pry bar. Now you want to be careful not to tear into the rubber boot but if it's already set...

Thanksgiving means real, not ideological, inclusiveness. President Abraham Lincoln profoundly demonstrated this fundamental point. On Oct. 3, 1863, the White House issued the Thanksgiving Proclamation, declaring the last Thursday of November to be a “day of thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens.” He also humbly requested “the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore … peace, harmony, [...]

The theme today is TOPHAT wearers. We've got four of them in the grid, and a grid-art TOPHAT made from black squares under SUNTANOIL. And me, I see the black squares below the TOPHAT as little arms that are either holding it up, or about to grab it and bring it back down onto a head that lies below the grid. Or maybe the arms are pulling the hat lower onto a SADFACE... can't you just picture it? So can I, but I was not able to find a photo online. Kind of amazing, really... so I'll use this instead:
I was a little surprised by ABELINCOLN, instead of Abraham, but I guess WILLYWONKA uses a nickname, too. I'm not sure about SCROOGEMCDUCK and FROSTY... those could be their full first names.
BRAVURA (Great technical skill) and ADULATE (Put on a pedestal) were nice, and getting the full RANAMOK, instead of one half cluing the other, felt like kind of a bonus. I've never heard the term BLEEDER (Grounder that squeezes between two infielders, in baseball slang), however, and I can't say I like it. In fact, that whole North section is rather unpleasant, with AIRTUBE and SWEARAT standing out so prominently.
I don't know... maybe it's the horizontal symmetry that I don't like today. I'm visually drawn to the entries FRANCA, NATANT, SMELT, and WASON (Had a base, as a runner in baseball) (odd), none of which is especially exciting. We also get a lot of initials and abbreviations (RLS, EAP, SOPH, IVS, AAA, ONEA, DTS, RNA, AOL, CDS, OMN, AGT, OTS, DAS), and, well... I didn't much love it.

Here at Donnell Lincoln of Salem, we want you to be prepared for harsh winter driving conditions. Understeer and oversteer are two types of slides that can happen on ice, and if you start to slide or fishtail, then you're more than likely driving too fast for the road conditions. Here are some ways that you can correct a slide.
Oversteer causes more accidents than understeer. If you have a vehicle with rear-wheel drive, then you are more likely to experience oversteer. To correct an oversteer slide, don't hit the brakes because it will trigger further sliding, and try to turn into the slide to regain control.
It's also important not to panic if you start to slide on the ice. Although understeer sliding and oversteer sliding are both dangerous, an oversteer slide causes the car to have angular momentum, which can cause it to spin out and rotate faster.
If you have a dog, then you'll likely want to take him with you in your car at some point. However, your vehicle should be dog-friendly so that it's easy to clean and comfortable for your four-legged friend to ride in while traveling in Salem.
A vehicle design that looks like a box or a rectangle is usually best for pets and crates. You'll be able to easily get the crate in and out because the shape is similar to the vehicle. This design is usually a bit more comfortable for dogs because of the open space instead of cramped quarters in a sedan or smaller car.
Harnesses are an option to consider after you find the car from Donnell Lincoln of Salem that you want. These are like seat belts for dogs that are attached to your pet's leash and the seat. They can keep your pet from moving around a lot while your driving.

THE WINNETKA COMMUNITY HOUSE FITNESS CENTER I recently canceled my gym membership at a large national company and switched to the smaller and local Fitness Center at the Winnetka Community House. Not only was the cost half of the previous fee, but I’m thrilled with the equipment, staff, space, and fellow gym members. Speaking of fellow gym members, I was lying on my mat and going through some tortuous ab repetitions this week and overheard two older gentleman having a thoughtful conversation about William Faulkner. He’s one of the authors who English majors (me) had to read and most of us disliked his writing. Too convoluted, labyrinthine, and obscure for me. Yet they were tackling the subject - two men in their eighties! One one had recently taken a course on Faulkner and the other remembered reading the Portable Faulkner. I was enchanted with the idea of working out in a gym and hearing such sublime subject matter. Most gyms have loud music (there’s music here but not deafening), loud people, and lots of slang, swearing, and grunting. But a deep conversation about an American author considered an icon to English professors. No, you won’t be hearing that too often - Back to the physical space at the Fitness Center. It’s clean, the equipment is newer, there’s plenty of space for everyone, and the cost can’t be beat. I missed using a particular smaller gizmo that I liked at my old gym - I requested it at the Winnetka Fitness Center - and voila, it appeared a week later. Talk about customer service! Separately, Pelaton bikes are available and there are many fitness classes to choose from. There’s also one of those trolley-like things that holds a lot of weight that you can push and pull up and down a long hallway. If you’re into swimming or yoga, you’ll have to go elsewhere. But for a good and solid workout in the heart of Winnetka, the Winnetka Fitness Center can’t be beat. And trust me, the older folks will continue to have their own conversations, but there are plenty of young people - even college and high school aged, who frequent the Fitness Center.

Bill Kirchen reminiscences on Commander Cody, Iggy Pop, and Bob Dylan before the Ann Arbor guitar legend's Honky Tonk Holiday
Ann Arbor native Bill Kirchen is instrumental in creating the rootsy country-rock-blues-folk mix we today call Americana.
Kirchen hit it big early in his career as the lead guitarist for Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen; he’s responsible for the dazzling guitar work on their enduring 1972 hit “Hot Rod Lincoln.” He’s since become known as an absolute master of the Telecaster guitar, playing with a nearly endless list of impressive names through the years.
Most recently, though, Kirchen has found one more way to shine: He’s become well known for his Honky Tonk Holiday tours, which showcase some of the most amazing, overlooked Christmas-themed gems you’ve never heard, alongside some other favorites from throughout his storied career.
On Sunday, Dec. 1, Kirchen brings his annual holiday spectacular home to Ann Arbor for a show at The Ark.
Dusting off should-be-classics like “Daddy’s Drinkin’ Up Our Christmas,” “Silent Surfin’ Night,” and “Truckin’ Trees For Christmas,” Kirchen -- now based in Austin -- will appear with his backing band The Hounds of the Bakersfield, featuring Rick Richards on drums and David Carroll on stand-up bass.
Kirchen took the time to answer a few questions via email, reflecting on the upcoming show and his time in Ann Arbor.
Q: You’re based in Austin, Texas, now? A: Yep. Chased the grandkids, daughter, and son-in-law down here almost 10 years ago. I’ve been coming down here to play music the better part of 50 years, so I have a lot of friends and history here. It’s still a soulful town. We’re struggling with explosive growth, but that comes with the territory. It’s a magnet town for pickers and writers, with no actual music industry! I like the community here, but need to make a lot of my livelihood on the road.
Q: How long have you been playing with the Hounds of the Bakersfield? A: Since I moved to Austin, though we rotate the band name. I’ve known bass player David Carroll much longer, at least 20 years. Drummer Rick Richards I met when I got here.
Q: How often do you get back to Ann Arbor? Do you still have any family here? A: At least once a year. Still have a sister Betsy and a brother Harold and sister-in-law Pam in Ann Arbor.
Q: Do you have any particular favorite memories of your days in Ann Arbor? Any favorite hangouts or events that you still think of fondly? A: Heck yeah. A great place to “grow up,” and I use the term loosely. Favorites? The Ark. The Cinema Guild, for old B&W movies as a kid; then, later, George Manupelli’s Film Festivals. The MUG in the Union and Dominick’s were where I’d find the bohemian crowd in the mid-'60s. While a senior at Ann Arbor High, I created a work/study program that allowed me to leave for the day at lunch, head up to campus, and just hang out. Sweet. It turned out to be actually very enriching, not to mention way more fun than school at that point.
There was a tremendous folk music scene here. Herb David’s Guitar Shop saw it all come and go. He fixed up a banjo for me that my mom got during a 1930s banjo craze. I saw Clarence and Roland White and the Kentucky Colonels at the Golden Vanity downtown, Junior Wells and Buddy Guy, then the Kweskin Jug Band at the Canterbury House, and much more. Odetta, Bill Monroe, Dave Van Ronk, Pete Seeger, Mike Bloomfield, Brownie McGee, all at various places on campus. I watched Bob Dylan, solo ’64, at my high school from up in the light deck right above the stage.
Q: What was it like to be part of the Ann Arbor music scene back in those days? A: Ann Arbor was a crossroads for musicians, artists, fellow travelers, and advanced thinkers, many of whom I’m still friends with today. For every name artist I mention, there were a dozen locals and visitors who had a very big impact on me.
When I started, I met a lot of musicians at the U of M Folklore Society meetings. Three of them were, among other things, country-blues players. They had an apartment with motorcycles in pieces in the kitchen, a living room crammed with guitars, cool blues records, and a harpsichord one of ’em built. I was just a kid, a junior in high school, but they’d let me come over, play records, and show me how to fingerpick guitar.
I loved Mississippi John Hurt, who I heard there. They said why don’t you go to the Newport Folk Festival and see him? So summer of ’64, barely 16, I hitchhiked to the festival, saw John Hurt, The Staple Singers, Bob Dylan, Jim Kweskin, Lightnin’ Hopkins, Skip James, Son House, The Swan Silvertones, Jimmie Driftwood, Doc Watson, Johnny Cash, Judy Collins, the list goes on and on. That festival, and the one next year, pretty well blew away the competition for what I was going to do before I, or if, or when, I grew up.
In ’64 this guy drives up and parks right on the sidewalk of the Union in his Peugeot car, which actually still had a crank you needed to stick in the front to start it, if your starter motor was broken, like his. I visited him at the Tassajara Zen Center in Big Sur, and still see him today in Vancouver where he teaches ocean sailing and celestial navigation. Another guy came through town who had played with Bill Monroe, and I sat in with him and sang a song. He sold me a Martin D-18 guitar and taught me how to hop freight trains.
In 1966, two buddies and I hopped those freights back from SF to Ann Arbor, where we started my first electric band, The Seventh Seal. Psychedelic folk-rock. We rented the bandshell in West Park for $15 a pop and put on the town’s first outdoor rock shows one summer, every Sunday afternoon. ["Local Group Denies Playing Riot-Causing Music," Ann Arbor News, July 19, 1967]
Two noted musicians from the U of M rock ’n’ roll scene saw the Seal on stage at the Cinema Guild, playing along with some Warhol movie while Gerard Malanga danced around the stage in chains. They invited me to play with them, and that became Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen. We played Mark’s Coffeehouse basement, Mr. Flood’s Party, The Blind Pig, the Canterbury House, Hill Auditorium, frat parties, the Cinema Guild, the Ozone Homecoming Parade, and doubtless many more that have slipped through the cracks.
At the ’65 high school senior talent show I put together a jug band, The Who Knows Pickers. We had learned “Subterranean Homesick Blues,” already out and on the air, a rock ’n’ roll record by Dylan. I electrified my guitar, but the director wasn’t having it. He’d gotten hay bales for us, and that was that. I went back to Newport that summer of ’65 and saw Dylan go electric with Bloomfield. I heard no boos. My take is that people in the audience overwhelmingly loved it. Booing as an audience team sport began later.
The Iguanas were also on that high school talent show. Jim Osterberg (Iggy Pop) sang “Jolly Green Giant” from atop a tall riser while drumming. About a year later I caught the tail end of the first Stooges (then the Psychedelic Stooges) performance at their manager’s house, right up the street from me. Iggy had spray-painted his face gold and was sitting on the floor shoving a mic in and out of a vacuum cleaner. A little later, when he got the band up and running, they were undeniable. We did a couple great shows with them in the late ‘60s.
One more Ig-related influence: Danny and Michael Erlewine’s The Prime Movers, with Iggy on drums, were fantastic. Blues, New Orleans, heavy roots stuff. Danny was my first electric guitar hero. Two songs, in particular, stuck with me. Their keyboard player, Robert Sheff, worked at Discount Records, and when asked he found me the album Home of the Blues with “Ooh Poo Pah Doo,” by Jessie Hill, plus a Swan Silvertones album with “Seek Seek and Ye Shall Find.” Quite possibly the best two albums I’ve ever owned. Sheff, now Blue Gene Tyranny, is a longtime avant-garde composer living in NYC. The Once Group, a free-wheeling Ann Arbor music and art collective, had lured him up to town from his native Texas.
Q: Your “Honky Tonk Holiday” shows are known for showcasing little-known but fantastic gems of holiday music. How do you find these songs? Have you specifically sought them out, or just stumbled across them over the years? A: They find me! There are a lot of vernacular music genres where holiday songs of questionable taste are not a problem.
Q: What makes for a good holiday song? What are a couple more traditional holiday songs that you love? A: I love all the traditional carols, probably know at least a dozen, but only the first stanza or so. Someday I’d like to go caroling again, where you go around in the evening and stand under people’s windows and serenade them. Pro tip: This Christmas, buy a bunch of kazoos, enough for all the family and guests; then get everybody on ’em and buzz through the carols. You will thank me.
Q: As one of the founders of the Americana movement, how would you assess the overall health of the genre today? Any particular favorite artists you think deserve a wider audience? A: I think that’s a young man’s job. I like a lot of what I’ve heard and am certainly not worried about the future of Americana, or pop, or acid death metal. Technology will change and the genres will morph and sort themselves out. I enjoy it when friends recommend great new stuff, or my pals put out cool new stuff, or I discover tunes online. But I don’t seek it out or really keep track.
I already have way more music under my roof than I’ll get a chance to hear in this lifetime. Now you kids get off my lawn.

Thanksgiving means real, not ideological, inclusiveness. President Abraham Lincoln profoundly demonstrated this fundamental point. On Oct. 3, 1863, the White House issued the Thanksgiving Proclamation, declaring the last Thursday of November to be a “day of thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens.” He also humbly requested “the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore … peace, harmony, and [...]
It seems to me that we are guaranteed two rights, liberty and equality, in the founding instruments of our republic, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. There are other rights, like freedom of religion, and principles, like government, as Abraham Lincoln phrased it in his Gettysburg Address of 1863, “of the people, by the people, and for the people.”The founding of our country also entailed free markets, limited government and — in contrast [...]
Nebraska Extension’s Landlord/Tenant Cash Rent Workshops for 2020 and Beyond will provide the latest leasing, real estate and management information to operators, tenants and landowners in Nebraska this winter.
The daylong workshop is scheduled in 19 communities throughout the state, between Dec. 6, 2019, and March 18, 2020.
Extension educators Austin Duerfeldt, Jim Jansen and Allan Vyhnalek have collaborated to develop a program that will address agricultural finance and the real estate market, negotiation skills and considerations for leases and strategies for farmland succession and communication.
“Austin, Jim and I have put together an excellent set of topics and have completely rewritten our land management curriculum for this set of workshops,” said Vyhnalek. “We encourage both landowners and farmers to attend to hear about land management in the next decade.
Registration for the free workshop is requested to ensure enough materials are available. Updated information is available at farm.unl.edu.

When we think of Thanksgiving, we usually think of pilgrims and Indians gathered for a harvest feast at Plymouth, but it was Abraham Lincoln who gave us Thanksgiving as a national holiday. Prior to Lincoln, each state celebrated Thanksgiving on different dates according to the discretion of each state’s governor. In 1863, in the middle of the Civil War, Lincoln issued a presidential proclamation for a national day of Thanksgiving.After noting the many blessings of God in spite of the [...]

As a result, Lincoln Financial has launched “The (Un)spoken Plan” campaign featuring a social experiment called “Restaurant Talks,” just as Americans are gathering around holiday tables this season.

Most Americans assume that the Thanksgiving holiday has always been associated with the Pilgrims, Indians, and their famous feast. Yet that connection is barely 150 years old and is the result of white Protestant New Englanders asserting their cultural authority over an increasingly diverse country. Since then, the Thanksgiving myth has served to reinforce white Christian dominance in the United States. It is well past time to dispense with the myth and its white nationalist connotations.
Throughout the colonial era, Thanksgiving had no association whatsoever with Pilgrims and Indians. It was a regional holiday, observed only in the New England states or in the Midwestern areas to which New Englanders had migrated. No one thought of the event as originating from a poorly documented 1621 feast shared by the English colonists of Plymouth and neighboring Wampanoag Indians. Ironically, Thanksgiving celebrations had emerged out of the English puritan practice of holding fast days of prayer to mark some special mercy or judgment from God, after which the community would break bread. Over the generations, these days of Thanksgiving began to take place annually instead of episodically and the fasting became less strictly observed.
The modern character of the holiday only began to emerge during the mid to late 1800s. In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln declared that the last Thursday of November should be held as a national day of Thanksgiving to foster unity amid the horrors of the Civil War. Afterward, it became a tradition, with some modifications to the date, and spread to the South too. Around the same time, Americans began to trace the holiday back to Pilgrims and Indians. The start of this trend appears to have been the Reverend Alexander Young’s 1841 publication of the Chronicles of the Pilgrim Fathers, which contained the only primary source account of the great meal, consisting of a mere four lines. To it, Young added a footnote stating that “This was the first Thanksgiving, the harvest festival of New England.” Over the next fifty years, various New England authors, artists, and lecturers disseminated Young’s idea until Americans took it for granted. Surely, few footnotes in history have been so influential.
For the rest of the nation to go along with New England’s idea that a dinner between Pilgrims and Indians was the template for a national holiday, the United States first had to finish its subjugation of the tribes of the Great Plains and far West. Only then could its people stop vilifying Indians as bloodthirsty savages and give them an unthreatening role in a national founding myth. The Pilgrim saga also had utility in the nation’s culture wars. It was no coincidence that authorities began trumpeting the Pilgrims as national founders amid widespread anxiety that the country was being overrun by Catholic and then Jewish immigrants unappreciative of America’s Protestant, democratic origins and values. Depicting the Pilgrims as the epitome of colonial America also served to minimize the country’s longstanding history of racial oppression at a time when Jim Crow was working to return blacks in the South to as close to a state of slavery as possible and racial segregation was becoming the norm nearly everywhere else. Focusing on the Pilgrims’ noble religious and democratic principles in treatments of colonial history, instead of on the shameful Indian wars and systems of slavery more typical of the colonies, enabled whites to think of the so-called black and Indian problems as southern and western exceptions to an otherwise inspiring national heritage.
Americans tend to view the Thanksgiving myth as harmless, but it is loaded with fraught ideological meaning. In it, the Indians of Cape Cod and the adjacent coast (rarely identified as Wampanoags) overcome their initial trepidation and prove to be “friendly” (requiring no explanation), led by the translators Samoset and Squanto (with no mention of how they learned English) and the chief, Massasoit. They feed the starving English and teach them how to plant corn and where to fish, whereupon the colony begins to thrive. The two parties then seal their friendship with the feast of the First Thanksgiving. The peace that follows permits colonial New England and, by extension, modern America, to become seats of freedom, democracy, Christianity and plenty. As for what happens to the Indians next, this myth has nothing to say. The Indians’ legacy is to present America as a gift to others or, in other words, to concede to colonialism. Like Pocahontas and Sacajawea (the other most famous Indians of Early American history) they help the colonizers then move offstage.
Literally. Since the early twentieth century, American elementary schools have widely held annual Thanksgiving pageants in which students dress up as Pilgrims and Indians and reenact this drama. I myself remember participating in such a pageant which closed with the song, “My Country Tis of Thee.” The first verse of it goes: My country tis of thee/ Sweet land of liberty/ Of thee I sing./ Land where my fathers died!/ Land of the Pilgrim’s pride!/ From every mountain side,/ Let freedom ring!” Having a diverse group of schoolchildren sing about the Pilgrims as “my fathers” was designed to teach them about who we, as Americans, are, or at least who we’re supposed to be. Even students from ethnic backgrounds would be instilled with the principles of representative government, liberty, and Christianity, while learning to identify with English colonists from four hundred years ago as fellow whites. Leaving Indians out of the category of “my fathers” also carried important lessons. It was yet another reminder about which race ran the country and whose values mattered.
Lest we dismiss the impact of these messages, consider the experience of a young Wampanoag woman who told this author that when she was in grade school, the lone Indian in her class, her teacher cast her as Chief Massasoit in one of these pageants and had her sing with her classmates “This Land is Your Land, This Land is My Land.” At the time, she was just embarrassed. As an adult, she sees the cruel irony in it. Other Wampanoags commonly tell of their parents objecting to these pageants and associated history lessons that the New England Indians were all gone, only to have school officials respond with puzzlement at their claims to be Indian. The only authentic Indians were supposed to be primitive relics, not modern, so what were they doing in school, speaking English, wearing contemporary clothing, and returning home to adults who had jobs and drove cars?
Even today, the Thanksgiving myth is one of the few cameos Native people make in many schools’ curriculum. Most history lessons still pay little to no heed to the civilizations Native Americans had created over thousands of years before the arrival of Europeans or how indigenous people have suffered under and resisted colonization. Even less common is any treatment of how they have managed to survive, adapt, and become part of modern society while maintaining their Indian identities and defending their indigenous rights. Units on American government almost never address the sovereignty of Indian tribes as a basic feature of American federalism, or ratified Indian treaties as “the supreme law of the land” under the Constitution. Native people certainly bear the brunt of this neglect, ignorance, and racial hostility, but the rest of the country suffers in its own ways too.
The current American struggle with white nationalism is not just a moment in time. It is the product of centuries of political, social, cultural, and economic developments that have convinced a critical mass of white Christians that the country has always belonged to them and always should. The myth of Thanksgiving is one of the many buttresses of that ideology. That myth is not about who we were but how past generations wanted us to be. It is not true. The truth exposes the Thanksgiving myth as a myth rather than history, and so let us declare it dead except as a subject for the study of nineteenth-and twentieth-century American cultural history. What we replace it with will tell future Americans about how we envision ourselves and the path of our society.

SPRINGFIELD – Only eight days after a nonprofit organization founded by conservative commentator Glenn Beck requested it be lent a priceless, handwritten copy of the Gettysburg Address to display at a “pop-up” museum in Dallas, Texas, the staff at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum had the document packed and ready to move.
The man who is said to have overseen and expedited that loan was fired in September by Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker, and the state’s Office of the Inspector General released a report Friday revealing it recommended that termination.
“The people of Illinois are fortunate that the Gettysburg Address and other artifacts ultimately returned safely to the ALPLM in June 2018, despite the risks that were taken,” the report concluded.
The report details that former ALPLM Executive Director Alan Lowe “mismanaged” the museum by lending one of five existing copies of the Gettysburg Address that was handwritten by President Abraham Lincoln – which is valued at $20 million – to Mercury One, “an inexperienced, unaccredited and unknown museum.”
The report said Lowe was contacted by Beck, who was interested in helping the museum pay down about $9 million in outstanding debt remaining from a $25 million purchase of what is known as the Taper collection in 2007.
The museum eventually received $50,869.60 in proceeds from the loan.
But the report said the risk far outweighed the small reward. The move was allowed despite a lack of written security and storage details about the destination facility, according to the report, which also said the document was handled by untrained professionals. Its installment at the Mercury One facility also apparently was livestreamed on Facebook.
Investigators found Lowe said the loan to Mercury One also was about publicity.
“When asked how the loan benefited the state of Illinois, Mr. Lowe said that the people of Illinois want the ALPLM to be a nationally and internationally recognized institution, rather than a ‘mom-and-pop shop, where people come and look at a cabinet of curiosities,’ ” according to the report.
But several circumstances surrounding the loan – its quick turnaround, Lowe’s unwillingness to listen to staff, problems with the insurance certificate and lack of documentation – led investigators to call for Lowe’s immediate removal.
According to the report, Historic Preservation Agency standards were put in place in 2013 to prohibit any future loans of the Gettysburg Address because of its age, worth and condition. That agency, however, was abolished by executive order in 2017 by former Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner.
Although that executive order made ALPLM its own state agency directly responsible to the governor, it also called for the governor to appoint a board of trustees to oversee the museum. No appointments to that board were made at the time of the loan, however, and the governor’s office apparently was not consulted, according to the report.
According to testimony outlined in the report, Lowe used the absence of a board to justify his complete control over the lending process. Pritzker has since appointed all 11 members to the board, which is led by former U.S. Rep. Ray LaHood. It will oversee the appointment of Lowe’s successor.
Carla Smith, the museum’s registrar, testified, according to the report, that most loans require at least six months’ advance notice before an item can be released. The Gettysburg Address was released eight days after an informal request was made.
Smith also testified that the museum never received a Standard Facility Report from Mercury One. That document is an industrywide report detailing storage plans, humidity levels, security precautions and other important aspects of the receiving facility that are expected to be completed if any loans are to take place.
The report also noted that Lowe and Michael Little, then the museum’s chief operating officer, accepted travel and lodging reimbursements from Mercury One on a trip they made to Texas for the unveiling of the exhibit. Per the report, those reimbursements were accepted without approval from ethics officers.
“Both Mr. Lowe and Mr. Little traveled to Texas at Mercury One’s expense in June 2018; neither took the time to oversee the Gettysburg Address and other artifacts being uncrated, installed or repacked while they were there, but rather were there in ‘marketing mode,’ engaging and interacting with people Mercury One brought in for the exhibit. These networking opportunities may have provided Mr. Lowe connections for his consulting business, and likely led to employment for Mr. Little at Mercury One,” according to the report.
Little, who later was hired by Mercury One, also was found to have “intentionally interfered with an [inspector general’s office] revolving door investigation conducted under the Ethics Act,” by claiming he had no contact with Mercury One employees in the year before his Dec. 5, 2018, departure as a state employee.
“Those statements were false. To the contrary, over less than three months in 2018, Mr. Little exchanged approximately 53 emails with Mercury One staff, including his new supervisor, Mercury One Executive Director Suzanne Grishman, about matters unrelated to his prospective employment at Mercury One,” the report stated.
The report also found that Lowe maintains a consulting business related to archives, museums and public policy centers, and has served on an advisory board for Mercury One since 2018, “at the same time he continued advocating for the ALPLM to make additional loans to Mercury One.”
The report said Lowe, who was hired in 2016 to lead the ALPLM, denied receiving any compensation from Mercury One.
Two further loans for Lincoln artifacts to the company were denied by ALPLM in 2018 and 2019 because of new protocols that were put into place after the Gettysburg Address loan.
McHenry City Council members will consider permanently reducing impact fees during a meeting Monday.
In September 2018, the city agreed to reduce impact fees by 50% in an effort to spur development on about 300 plots in various housing complex lots throughout McHenry. Municipalities throughout McHenry County have gone the same route to encourage development.
It was in 2018 that developers with the Oaks of Irish Prairie and Legend Lake subdivisions asked the city for a reduction. The Patriot Estates, Liberty Trails and Lincoln Hills subdivisions also were eligible.
Municipalities collect impact fees from developers that then go to various taxing bodies such as the police department, schools or park and library districts to offset the costs of additional residents.
In 2004, McHenry determined that the value of 1 acre of improved land was $107,586, and impact fees were based off those costs. Under the new proposed formula, the value of that same acre of land would be $80,000.
City officials hired Harrison and Associates Inc., a land use and valuation consulting company, to recommend an appropriate fee schedule moving forward.
“Unfortunately, over the past several years, the single-family residential development market has been decimated,” Frank Harrison of Harrison and Associates said in a letter to the city. “Between 2008 and the current date, the market for single-family residences, particularly new single-family residences, has been reduced significantly.”
Many builders were left with potential subdivisions for which there was no market, resulting in foreclosure and bankruptcy, Harrison said.
“To date, there is no meaningful market for undeveloped subdivisions in eastern McHenry County, regardless of the level of improvements in the subdivision,” he said.
Under the new fee structure, developers of single-family detached homes would pay between $3,929 and $9,041 in impact fees, depending on the number of bedrooms in each home. That number is down from fees ranging from $7,826 to $15,267.
Developers of attached single-family homes such as townhomes and duplexes could pay fees between $2,144 and $7,164, down from the original fee range of between $3,297 and $14,120.
Apartment developers would pay between $2,265 to $6,337, down from the original fee range between $3,517 and $12,551. The fewer number of bedrooms in each unit, the less the impact fee would be.
The council will meet at 7 p.m. Monday at the municipal building, 333 S. Green St.
SPRINGFIELD – Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker is planning to spend $40,000 of his own money to renovate his state Capitol office next month, according to a news release distributed by his staff.
Those changes will be mainly functional, however, with no major changes planned for the carpeting, wallpaper, furniture or other cosmetic areas.
“The Office the Governor in Springfield will undergo renovations beginning the week of Dec. 10 with the goal of improving functionality for staff. It is expected to conclude before the end of the year,” Jordan Abudayyeh, Pritzker’s press secretary, said in a statement last week.
Abudayyeh said the work will take place in the governor’s second-floor Capitol working office, as well as in the reception area outside of it. The renovations will include soundproofing in the office and installation of a partition to make the reception area “more accessible to staff.”
The governor’s staff said the changes to the reception area, which is the public-facing office space visible through plate glass windows on the Capitol’s second floor, are temporary and can be easily removed at a future date.
According to a news release, the administration worked with the Architect of the Capitol to ensure modifications “will not compromise the historical integrity of the office.”
The “ceremonial office” – an area which frequently hosts news conferences and is complete with a 1918 Robert Root painting of an 1858 debate between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglas – will be unaffected by the renovations.
Pritzker’s office also said the work will be done by a union firm and union subcontractors.

She leaned across her dressing table and gazed into the gilt-framed mirror on the wall. Strange, she thought, how much time you can spend studying your own face, and then scarcely know it. Her nose, at least, never altered: it was short and straight: but everything else seemed to change with her mood. Her upper lip was thing, almost prim, her lower lip full and sensual; the lock she combed across the massive brow was blond but the rest of her hair, which fell in waves below her shoulders, was chestnut. Her eyes were large, wide-set, deep blue, clear and penetrating in their outward gaze though not always lucid within; tonight she was happy, and the intruder who sometimes lurked behind them was nowhere to be seen. (p. 1)
Summary: Mary Todd is a young beauty from a Kentucky family who lives in Springfield, Illinois, where she is beginning to catch the interest of a number of men, most notably the up-and-coming Stephen Douglas. She is ambitious, has a vast number of important connections through family and friends, and wants a political husband. Into her life at this point comes the most unlikely suitor of all, young ungainly Abraham Lincoln, a largely self-taught small-time lawyer with folksy, backwoods ways. He is also interested in politics, and also ambitious, although he is sometimes faced with crippling self-doubt and extended bouts of depression due to the apparent mismatch between his ambitions and his background. He is a good speaker, however, with a name for 'lucible' speeches; folksiness is in fashion in Illinois due to the Log Cabin and Hard Cider campaign; and Abraham has a reputation for good-humored integrity, which tends to make up for his lack of a fancy background. Mary could have a more promising man, and certainly a much prettier and wealthier man, but something about Abraham's mix of seriousness and humor holds her attention like nothing else.
Marriage mixed with politics makes for choppy seas, however strong the marriage may be. Theirs would be a marriage with its share of fights, although Abraham usually could defuse such arguments to mutual satisfaction. It would even more often be filled with long tedium; both law and politics in that day were on-the-road jobs. When Abraham is not gone for the circuit courts, which in those days literally traveled through a territory, he is often gone for political speaking engagements to help out some Whig, and later Republican, candidate or other. And Lincoln did not actually have any kind of great success; it would be exaggeration to say it was mostly failures, since there were definite successes, but he mostly muddled along. He managed in 1846 to be elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, which he served one two-year term, mostly just toeing the party line; he had pledged to serve only one term, so he then went back to law. He supported Taylor in the 1848 election, and for that was offered governorship of Oregon Territory; both he and Mary agreed that this would effectively end their political ambitions, so he passed that up and continued working at law. So it went until 1854, when, having been elected to state legislature, he made a play for the U.S. Senate (at that time elected by state legislatures), and failed. He became a Republican for the 1856 elections and backed Dayton and Frémont, campaigning for them throughout Illinois. Buchanan, the Democrat, won instead, but the campaigning made Abraham a well-known figure in Illinois politics. He then made a play for the Senate again, this time against Stephen Douglas; while the Republicans won the popular vote, the Democrats won more seats in the state legislature, so were able to elect Douglas. Throughout it all, Mary used her connections to try to keep him afloat, and it eventually paid off by making Lincoln the Republican candidate for the 1860 elections. And, of course, South Carolina seceded on December 20, 1860, shortly after it was clear Lincoln had won.
It was a hard time to become President all around, but it's sometimes overlooked amidst other things that Washington, D.C., was a very Southern city, sharing more with Virginia than anything, and Republicans were not welcome there at all. Mary did her best to undo this. The White House at the time was famously shabby, having had very little more than minimal maintenance on it for decades, and Mary set out to try to navigate the byzantine customs governing how it was funded -- not always successfully, and in such a way that she developed a reputation for someone who liked to spend money (which in fairness was perhaps partly true), but she did manage to restore a great deal of social respectability to the Executive Mansion.
But through it all, there were tragedies of a nonpolitical kind to deal with, as well. Their son Eddie died in 1850 at the age of six. Their fourth son, Tad, born in 1853, had a cleft palate. Their son Willie died in 1862 at the age of twelve. The death of Willie in particular would hit both parents hard; Mary started attending seances in the hope of seeing him again.
And, of course, one day shortly after the end of the Civil War, and shortly into Lincoln's second term, the couple took time out to go to Ford's Theatre to re-watch a play, Our American Cousin, that Abraham had previously liked. Washington, D.C., was a very Southern city.
Stone's novel is essentially a novelization of Mary's life, since it is largely from her perspective that everything is seen. But Mary Todd Lincoln had a significant role to play in her husband's career, through her connections, through her support, through her formidable administrative ability. She did a great deal to make him presentable to the world, and to keep him presentable to the world, as he often did a great deal to give her ambitions a bit of realism. The title, Love Is Eternal, is written on the wedding band that Abraham gives to Mary. It is a motto of hope more than anything else, appropriate for the beginning of a marriage and for its end.
Favorite Passage: Mary Todd's first introduction to Abraham Lincoln:
In the midst of the bedlam she thought she suddenly had taken leave of her senses, for out of a trap door above the speaker's stand a pair of feet emerged, and then a naked pair of calves, then long legs that kept dropping downward into the room, legs that seemed to cover the full twelve feet from the trap door to the stand. As she sat there in a state of shock the rest of the man finally appeared, a long scrawny torso and neck, arms that seemed to her even longer than the incredible legs, a dark, gaunt, bone-ridged homely face and a disheveled stand of thick coarse black hair.
Turning her head slowly she saw that the men in the aisles and on the platform had frozen in their tracks. After a moment of silence which hung in the air even as had the descended apparition, the man began speaking in a high nasal voice.
"Hold on, gentlemen. This is a land of free speech. Baker has a right to speak, and if you take him of the stand you'll have to take me, too." (p. 38)
Recommendation: Recommended. It builds slowly, but gets quite interesting as it goes.

The presidential campaign of 1840 was a very public one, indeed, in some sense the first fully public campaign; Whigs and Democrats vied by pamphlet, by debate, and by song. Democratic Van Buren was the incumbent; he was struggling, however, due to economic woes following the Panic of 1837. William Henry Harrison, the Whig nominee, launched a populist campaign against him, and a populist campaign, of course, has to be an active and public one. Thus we owe Harrison our campaign cycles. Harrison had been the commander in charge of troops at the Battle of Tippecanoe against the Shawnee. It was not a particularly brilliant work of a tactics, nor did it actually do much against the Shawnee confederacy under Tecumseh in the long run, but it had been in all the newspapers, and Harrison played up his role as the 'Hero of Tippecanoe' to the fullest. Harrison himself was born into wealth and had the best education, but he put himself forward as one of the people, a man who had done real work and would have no problem living in a log cabin or drinking hard cider, in contrast to fancy, champagne-swilling Van Buren in the White House; although both the log cabin and the hard cider had been a sarcastic Democratic broadside against Harrison's early campaign, he took them both and ran with them, to widespread popularity. John Tyler ended up getting the Vice Presidential nomination; no one really knew why, because he was known to be a policy nullity (on the campaign trail, he would answer questions by saying he was in favor of what Mr. Harrison and Mr. Clay were in favor of), but it was probably his being a Southerner with a (supposed) close association with Henry Clay, who had been beaten out by Harrison. But the result was one of the most famous campaign slogans in U.S. history: "Tippecanoe and Tyler, too."
The above was a popular campaign song; I haven't been able to find out who wrote it, and if it's like other campaign songs, I suspect nobody knows. It gets a brief quotation in Irving Stone's novel about the Lincolns, Love Is Eternal, which is what made me dig it up.

As entrepreneurs, we can always learn from studying companies that really understand what they’re doing. From branding to customer service, there is always more to learn. I especially get excited when I get the opportunity to unpack a brand with someone who understands it intimately.
Airbnb is a brand that I’ve come to truly respect. I’ll be completely honest- for the longest time, I was not a fan of the brand. But I’ve come to understand and appreciate why they are a brand that is incredibly respected in the hospitality and technology-driven space. Airbnb is a leader in making their customers feel like they are part of a community. They understand how to make people feel like they belong.
To dive deeper into harnessing the power of community, I’ve brought back a friend of mine, Joseph Michelli. Joseph is an internationally sought after speaker, author, and organizational consultant. His insights encourage leaders and frontline workers to grow and invest passionately in all aspects of their lives. Joseph was named as one of the Top 10 thought leaders in Customer Service by Global Gurus.

Personalization and personal care are different but equally important service factors.
Creating diversity and a sense of belonging is about breaking down barriers.

Generativity is the feeling of wanting to carry on knowledge from previous generations, so Airbnb has created opportunities for social interaction that allows those experiences.
The three important human emotions business should understand: self-fulfillment, trust, and belonging.

Often when launching a new company or business, we are looking for a map that will guide us from seed to conception. On my journey, I looked for any source that would help me on my path. Some strategies worked, but many of them did not.
Looking back, I have to think of how helpful it would have been if someone would have been able to provide a map or guideline that spoke to my specific needs. A plan that lays out the process, framework, and proper sequencing of events that will reap the most significant benefits.
To dive deeper into launching a start-up, I’ve brought on serial entrepreneur, advisor, and author Jon Warner. Five-time company CEO, Jon Warner is a widely respected entrepreneurship expert and mentor having founded and led 3 start-ups. Jon is a noted speaker at businesses, colleges, and conferences across the world. He also lectures on entrepreneurship at both undergraduate and MBA levels.

Thanksgiving means real, not ideological, inclusiveness. President Abraham Lincoln profoundly demonstrated this fundamental point. On Oct. 3, 1863, the White House issued the Thanksgiving Proclamation, declaring the last Thursday of November to be a “day of thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens.” He also humbly requested “the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore … peace, harmony, and [...]

As you gather today, give thanks for US troops far from home (Editorial)
By Advance Media NY Editorial Board
The song says, “I’ll Be Home for Christmas,” but the holiday that truly demands our presence at home is Thanksgiving. If you have ever missed Thanksgiving dinner due to work or travel, you’ve experience the ache of missing family, food and traditions on this quintessentially American holiday.
Few feel this homesickness more acutely than the members of the military deployed around the country and around the world in service to our country. They stand guard so the rest of us can enjoy the blessings of freedom and plenty. Because of their service, there will be empty chairs at many Thanksgiving tables today.
The first Thanksgiving, in 1621 at Plymouth Colony, was a celebration of peace between English settlers and Native Americans. Over time, the holiday came to be linked with war.
During the Revolutionary War, Gen. George Washington proclaimed the first national day of thanksgiving on Dec. 18, 1777, to commemorate the Continental Army’s victory at Saratoga the previous October. In 1789, then-President Washington designated Thursday, Nov. 26, as a national day of thanks to God for aid in winning the war and forming a constitutional government. In true federalist fashion, Washington left it up to the states to decide if they wanted to go along.
It took another war to create a national Thanksgiving holiday. In 1863, as the Civil War raged, President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national day of thanksgiving to be observed on the last Thursday in November. Union victories at Vicksburg and Gettysburg had turned the tide of the war. The proclamation was written by Auburn’s William Seward, Lincoln’s Secretary of State. At the most divisive moment in our history, Seward and Lincoln reminded combatants on both sides that they had much in common. The president invited “my fellow citizens in every part of the United States” to acknowledge God’s grace “with one heart and one voice by the whole American People.” The sentiment was fleeting; the nation’s bloodiest war went on for another year and a half.

ACCLAIMED JAZZ VOCALIST JACKIE ALLEN'S
LIVE CONCERT:
"A ROMANTIC EVENING WITH JACKIE ALLEN:
LIVE AT THE ROCOCO"
TWO-DISC CD + BLU-RAY
(CONCERT CURRENTLY BEING BROADCAST ON PBS STATIONS NATIONWIDE)
AVAILABLE OCTOBER 14, 2019 ON AVANT BASS RECORDS
Over a career spanning more than three decades, renowned vocalist JACKIE ALLEN has recorded 12 CDs that have garnered wide critical acclaim. Downbeat Magazine said that her last album, Rose Fingered Dawn, displays "polished virtuosity... a shimmering paradigm of stylish and sophisticated jazz singing." Allen is now releasing her newest project, A ROMANTIC EVENING WITH JACKIE ALLEN: LIVE AT THE ROCOCO, a two-disc Blu-ray and CD set.
With her smoky and suggestive voice, distinctive phrasing, and improvisatory chops, Allen is a true jazz singer. A natural storyteller, she can interpret jazz ballads with great sensitivity and fluently transform pop tunes into the jazz idiom. As with Allen's other recordings, A ROMANTIC EVENING WITH JACKIE ALLEN presents a mix of musical styles, from classic jazz tunes to up-tempo swing numbers, soulful R&B, lush ballads, and jaunty sambas.
Allen is also an outstanding arranger. She adapted most of the tunes on this album with her own inimitable style and emotive approach to lyric interpretation. She and her husband, the top-notch bass player HANS STURM, have been making music together since the early 1980s. Sturm has performed with a Who's Who of well-known jazz artists, such as Eddie Daniels, Phil Woods, and Randy Brecker, among many others. Allen and Sturm are both distinguished musicians in their own right, and together they make a formidable musical enterprise. The two have teamed up once again to create this unique, two-disc collection, with Sturm producing the video portion of the project.
Although you can find a couple dozen videos on YouTube of Allen's performances, this is the first time she has captured an entire live performance on video. Fans can purchase just the CD recording of the music or the two-disc set containing the Blu-ray DVD of the live performance. The DVD also features interviews with Allen discussing the music, as well as interviews with the band and segments chronicling some of Allen's travels and performances around the country.
Allen and Sturm are originally from Chicago but have been living in Lincoln, Nebraska, for several years. Lincoln is also the home of the Lied Center, the leading arts center in Nebraska whose mission is to present distinguished artists in all art forms and genres from around the country and around the world. Ann Chang, the Center's artistic director, is a fan of Allen's and approached her to do a show around Valentine's Day that focused on romantic songs.
The Lied Center was expanding its performance venues and had recently begun hosting shows at the Rococo Theater in Lincoln. The Rococo is an elegant art space that was called The Stuart Theater when it opened in 1929. As with many old buildings, it went through several transformations over the years, from a movie theater to condominiums on the upper floors, before it was completely refurbished and re-christened in 1981.
With its restored marble and ornate chandeliers, Chang thought it would the perfect venue for Allen's show.With a beautiful location, the romantic theme of the concert, and, of course, Allen's sumptuous vocals, Sturm thought it would be a good idea to video the performance for release to NET, Nebraska's NPR television station. The project, however, took two years to be released. Sturm discovered that, unlike licensing music for distribution, obtaining the synchronization rights for the video was a far more daunting task. With all the rights finally secured, a shortened, half hour version of the video was put into the NETA system. NETA is The National Educational Telecommunications Association, an association representing 275 member stations in 46 states that, among its many services, provides one-of-a-kind documentaries to NPR affiliates. A ROMANTIC EVENING WITH JACKIE ALLEN has already been shown on several NPR stations across the country.
Allen brought her longtime recording band from Chicago to Lincoln for this performance. Besides Sturm on bass, the band includes pianist BEN LEWIS, who has been travelling the world lately with the Lt. Dan Band, which was founded by Gary Sinise to perform at USO shows, entertain troops, and raise money for disabled veterans; versatile guitarist JOHN MOULDER, who has performed with Eddie Harris and Donny McCaslin, among others; and percussionist DANE RICHESON, who is a world percussion specialist as well as a jazz drummer. For this special event, she also brought out BOB SHEPPARD, the Los Angeles-based woodwinds maestro who has performed with an astounding crop of A-list jazz giants.
Sung with the emotional honesty that Allen is known for, the tunes on this recording befit the romantic motif of the evening. Allen opens the CD with "What a Little Moonlight Can Do" that features a duet with Allen and Lewis playing stride piano. Allen's arrangement of the Ellington/Strayhorn classic "Daydream" has a buoyant, lilting feel with some interesting changes in meter. "Lazy Afternoon" has a haunting vibe that features the African mbira, also called the 'thumb piano,' with Sheppard on flute while Moulder and Sturm provide additional harmonic colors. Allen does a funky version of Billy Preston's "You Are So Beautiful," made famous by Joe Cocker. Sheppard really gets down on his tenor solo on Smokey Robinson's "The Way You Do The Things You Do." Arranged by Lewis, Allen simply nails the biting, tongue-in-cheek lyrics on the Rodgers & Hart standard "Everything I've Got."
Paul Simon's "Still Crazy After All These Years" opens with just bass and voice, then is joined by drums and Lewis using the organ setting on his electronic keyboard. Allen arranged "My Funny Valentine" as a samba. It features Richeson playing the pandera, a type of Brazilian tambourine. Burt Bacharach and Hal David's "This Guy" is the quintessential love song. Allen's intimate performance is enhanced by Moulder's classical technique on a nylon string guitar and Sheppard on flute. Allen closes the concert with "Nobody Does It Better," composed by Marvin Hamlisch and Carole Bayer Sager. It was recorded by Carly Simon as the theme song for the 1977 James Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me, and makes it to almost all lists of the top romantic songs ever.
With its stellar musicianship and Allen's sexy and emotive vocals, A ROMANTIC EVENING WITH JACKIE ALLEN has the kind of intimate feel that pairs beautifully with a candlelight dinner and a bottle of good champagne.
A ROMANTIC EVENING WITH JACKIE ALLEN will be available in stores and online everywhere.

Hello, December 2019.

As always, that's only the BEGINNING—hit the links below and plan your week accordingly
Battles, Palm Of the experimental New York foursome that were Battles, only two remain: Ian Williams and John Stanier. No, they didn’t actually battle each other (although they should say they did). It’s funny to think of their 2006 track “Tras”—which sounded like a metal song that became a math equation—as this group’s hit single, but that’s what we were nodding our heads to on the way to shows. Over the past few albums, Battles has fooled with incorporating vocals into their complex and symmetrical “bleep bloop” compositions, and on their new album Juice B Crypts they include one-off collaborations with singers like Xenia Rubinos, rappers like Shabazz Palaces, and groups like Tune-Yards. But I still like their instrumental tracks like “A Loop So Nice” best. (Mon Dec 2, 8 pm, Hawthorne Theatre, $20-25)SUZETTE SMITH
Takács Quartet The folks at Friends of Chamber Music have been welcoming world-class players to Portland for more than 75 years, and tonight and tomorrow, they host four of the best with a sublime program tucked up their collective sleeve.

(Mon-Tues Dec 2-3, 7:30 pm, PSU Lincoln Performance Hall, $32-57)BRIAN HORAY
Daughters, Lingua Ignota It almost goes without saying that Rhode Island noise rock band Daughters comes with a lot of baggage. Even as they debuted in 2003, with their much-lauded Canada Songs, they were seeking to cast off their past lives as the grindcore group As the Sun Sets. Canada Songs was a controlled chaos of screams and blistering guitar licks; by the time you could tell the songs apart, they had you. The band fell out around their third record, as bands do, but reformed to release 2018’s You Won’t Get What You Want which collects a variety of discordant music styles into an interesting and controlled catalog. These days it seems like Daughters frontman Alexis Marshall wants to employ more throbbing-noise and altar calls than chaotic screaming freak-outs, which I would say is a sign of maturity if he hadn’t suggested last year that people should punch journalists they don’t agree with.

Mount Eerie, Julie Dorion It’s been over a decade since the release of Lost Wisdom, the beautifully sparse 2008 collaboration that saw Mount Eerie's Phil Elverum link up with his musical hero, Julie Doiron of Eric’s Trip, along with Canadian musician Fred Squire. Recorded in Elverum’s hometown of Anacortes while Doiron and Squire were on a brief layover between touring and recording sessions of their own, the album was embraced by fans and quickly tucked away, with Elverum moving on to experiment with black metal on Wind’s Poem and Doiron returning to her indie rock roots with I Can Wonder What You Did with Your Day. Fortunately, Elverum and Doiron have reunited for Lost Wisdom pt. 2; the accompanying tour gives Elverum another chance to share the stage with his favorite singer and fans an opportunity to witness these desolate, yet endearing songs in a live setting.

Christmas Ships Parade Since 1954, the mighty waters of the Columbia and Willamette have been home to the ONLY Christmas tradition that’s worth a damn: THE CHRISTMAS SHIPS, a mighty fleet of delightfully decorated boats that patrol our land's dark, dangerous waves—bringing us boisterous light and joy, and banishing sinister sea lions and razor-toothed mer-people to the rotting, watery depths! Nearly every night until Christmas, this jaunty procession of slow-moving, light-spangled boats will valiantly cruise through all sorts of territory, from Milwaukie to Vancouver—AND there’ll be meet and greets, where you can cram your eye-holes with close-up views of the festive boats (!) and meet the fearless skippers (!!) who heroically navigate their vessels across our rivers and into our hearts.

The Thesis The Thesis is known for consistently bringing together some of the most promising names in Portland hip-hop, and this month’s lineup is true to form: esoteric rapper Donte Thomas, R&B/pop crooner Kid Indigo, commanding MC Mickey Taelor, skilled sampler Trox, and locally beloved DJ Verbz. But my personal favorite artist on this month’s bill is Maarquii, the dynamic genderqueer rapper/performer whose latest singles feature a full, expertly produced sound and a good amount of lyrical swagger. “Won’t you bump that new Maarquii?” they ask on “Day Ones.” Indeed, won’t you?

Renato Lima de Oliveira has served since 2016 as the international president general of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul (SSVP), the first Brazilian to hold this position. A husband and father, he also works a “day job” at Anatel (Brazil’s equivalent of the U.S. FCC) in institutional relations. He holds three postgraduate degrees (marketing, regulation, and parliamentary advisory), an MA in political science from the University of Brasilia. He first joined the SSVP when he was a 15-year-old high school student. In his 33 years as a lay Vincentian, he has served the SSVP in various ways: as president of his parish group, president of the local Central Council, and coordinator of communication, formation, and youth. In 2001, he was invited to serve in communications for the Council General International, and in 2008, became vice president for South America. He is the author of seven books, five of which are Vincentian spiritual readings. Under his leadership, the international SSVP has made expanded into 5 new countries and made advances in the areas of youth, management, formation, and the canonization of Blessed Antony Frederic Ozanam. His motto is taken from Mark 9:35: “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all."
Sr. Catherine Mulligan, DC, is a native of Ireland who has coordinated the development of Daughters of Charity (DC) projects in Kenya over the past 12 years. One such project is Project DREAM, a collaboration between the Daughters and the Community of Sant’Egidio. DREAM stands for “Drug Resource Enhancement against AIDS and Malnutrition.” A vast majority of Kenyans live at a subsistence level, including a significant number of refugees. Before opening the DREAM Center on the Daughters of Charity property in Nairobi, the home-based care team conducted considerable research and interviews to establish the groundwork. The Sisters’ alliance with those who are poor, combined with a highly motivated and trained Kenyan staff and the local Ministry of Health providers have contributed to the DREAM program’s remarkable results. For over a decade, DREAM has been applying in sub-Saharan Africa, with extraordinary success, state-of-the-art standards of treatment for HIV/AIDS that are the norm for HIV/AIDS patients in the developed world. DREAM provides testing and integrated, comprehensive care to those who are HIV-positive, with a key focus on the treatment of pregnant women and their children to prevent mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV, with very high success.
Daniel F. Pilario, CM, is the dean at Adamson University's St. Vincent School of Theology in Quezon City, Philippines. He holds both his STL and PhD from KU Leuven, and much of his research covers fundamental theology, inculturation, theological anthropology and sociology, methods of theological research, and political-social theory.
A founding member and former president of DaKaTeo (Catholic Theological Society of the Philippines), Fr. Pilario is also a vice president of Concilium as well as editor of and contributor to other philosophical and theological journals.
Additionally, as a Vincentian priest, for years, he has regularly ministered in a parish in the Payatas garbage dump/landfill site on the outskirts of Manila. It is here that he also ministers to and accompanies the widows and children of those murdered in the extrajudicial “drug war” killings under Filipino President Rodrigo Duterte. And it is for these families that Fr.Pilario has established the SOW Project. SOW stands for “Support for Orphans and Widows,” and the program strives to help them in their recovery by providing psychosocial interventions and treatments that will respond to their economic needs, their quest for justice, and their desire to be healed from the trauma brought about by the tragic death of their loved ones so that they may learn better ways of coping with the challenges of new life situations. Specifically, SOW works to economically capacitate the family, ensure the educational access of the orphans, and support the family in its quest for justice.
The Catholic Church is perhaps the largest provider of health care in the world. From sophisticated Catholic hospital systems to small rural clinics, the Church continues the legacy of healing begun by Jesus. Today, however, the gap between technologically advanced medicine and the needs of the desperately poor continues to widen.
This conference will address some of the most pressing issues facing Catholic health care providers around the globe and brings together speakers from Uganda, India, Ecuador, South Korea, the U.S., Canada, Brazil, Mexico, and Zambia. Panels will discuss
Catholic health care services and strategies biblical and theological narratives of health and healingthe relationship between Western and non-Western traditions of medicinehealing trauma and invisible woundsCatholic partnerships between the global South and global North

When we think of Thanksgiving, we usually think of pilgrims and Indians gathered for a harvest feast at Plymouth, but it was Abraham Lincoln who gave us Thanksgiving as a national holiday. Prior to Lincoln, each state celebrated Thanksgiving on different dates according to the discretion of each state’s governor. In 1863, in the middle of the Civil War, Lincoln issued a presidential proclamation for a national day of Thanksgiving.After noting the many blessings of God in spite of the [...]

REALLY - Charlie!! Is that why Trumps arrival to airstrip, his exiting the plane, his entering the SUV, his then exiting the SUV, his walking into the Air Base, his greeting at the Air Base, his extended period of posing with the troops while 870,000 camera flashes lit up the room, his shaking hands with the troops, his chatting with the troops (constant camera flashes) his waving goodbye to the troops, his entering the SUV and departing back to the plane for his return trio home -

Is <i>THAT</i> your idea of "No Press", "No Photo Ops" ??!!
You see, in winger world, this was a noble gesture by the president - just a quiet, under the radar visit - no cameras, no photo ops, no political pandering - simply Donald Trump, spending some quiet time sharing a meal with the troops.
This brazen lying should come as no surprise. After all, this is the Administration and the president who had previously addressed a group of veterans thusly -
July 24, 2018, Philadelphia Enquirer -
<b>Trump to veterans: Don’t believe what you’re reading or seeing</b>
<blockquote>At a Veterans of Foreign Wars Convention in Kansas City, Mo., on Tuesday, President Trump told veterans and guests that they shouldn't believe what they're reading about his administration or seeing on the news.
"Just remember, what you are seeing and what you are reading is not what's happening," Trump said.</blockquote>
Winger World has devolved into a wholly fictitious alternate reality where black is white, hot is cold and lies are truth.
A world where Donald Trump is somehow the second coming of George Washington and Abe Lincoln, all rolled into one - not the gangland criminal, pu##y grabbing, draft dodging, money laundering, tax dodging, ally extorting, Putin puppet and soon to be impeached, irrefutably worst president in modern, if not all, history.

for the Philadelphia Eagles Jerome Brown Jerseys 2019 , which means Howie Roseman and Doug Pederson will spend the next couple of weeks evaluating the 2018 roster. It’s time to start figuring out what this team needs to do to get back to the Super Bowl. Today we’ll continue this roster outlook series by looking at the wide receiver position.THE PLAYERSNELSON AGHOLORRegular season stats: 982 snaps, 97 targets, 64 receptions, 736 yards (11.5 average), 4 TD, 3 rushes for 32 rushing yards, 1 passing attempt for 15 passing yards, 1 fumblePlayoff stats: 9 targets, 4 receptions Black Reggie White Jerseys , 38 yards (9.5 average), 1 rush for 12 rushing yardsReview: Agholor really stood out to me during the offseason. He simply looked faster than I ever remember, routinely burning corners deep during practice. I was thinking he was really going to build off his turnaround 2017 season. That never really happened, though, as he finished the 2018 season with volume numbers similar to last year. He was worse in efficiency, however, with four fewer touchdowns and a decrease in yards per reception.Outlook: It’ll be really interesting to see how the Eagles handle Agholor this offseason. The 2015 first-round pick is currently under contract at a $9.4 million cap figure for 2019. None of that money is currently guaranteed, though, since it’s a fifth-year team option. I really can’t see the Eagles being fine with keeping Agholor at that number. I would guess they’ll try to sign him to a team-friendly contract extension Reggie White Jerseys 2019 , citing Agholor’s massive struggles over his first two years as why the team can’t pay market price for him. If the Eagles and Agholor can’t agree to an extension, they might just have to move on. That would stink for the Eagles because he wouldn’t factor in to their compensatory pick formula when he signs elsewhere. Again, this is a tricky spot for the Eagles. It would be nice to not have to add slot receiver to the list of Philly’s needs this offseason but they shouldn’t overpay to keep Agholor around. PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Ezekiel Elliott took one giant leap that may have saved Dallas’ season.But it was Elliott’s go-ahead 1-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter that helped the Cowboys finally hurdle the Super Bowl champs.The Cowboys showed a second-half spark — and cooled the hot seat for coach Jason Garrett a few degrees — in a 27-20 win over the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night.Cowboys owner Jerry Jones burst into the locker room and channeled his inner Ric Flair with a “Wooo!” that perked up the winners. Jones hit the locker room like a politician stumping for votes, shaking hands with anyone within reach.“Now that was a win, I’ll tell you right now,” he said to a small circle of Cowboys.The Cowboys are just 4-5 but the victory steadied a franchise that saw Garrett again under fire and Hall of Fame quarterback Troy Aikman call for major organizational changes for a franchise far removed from the Super Bowl heyday.Elliott and Dak Prescott quieted the doubters after a dazzling Sunday that put the champion Eagles’ season on the rocks.“You can imagine the way Jason Garrett, his resolve before the game,” Jones said. “I asked him before the game, ‘You feeling any pressure?’ (Garrett replied) ‘It just makes me want to go out and do more to turn this thing.'”Elliott made highlight reels and kept the Dallas’ NFC East title hopes alive when he extended a play in the first half. The Cowboys tried a fake punt on fourth-and-2 from their 31 and Jeff Heath took a direct snap and ran three yards. A few plays later Black Mike Quick Jerseys , Elliott hurdled Tre Sullivan on a 32-yard run to the Eagles 8. Michael Bennett sacked Prescott on third down and Brett Maher kicked a 31-yard field goal for a 6-0 lead.Was it Elliott’s best bound over a defender?“I’ll leave that up to you guys to decide,” Elliott said.Jones was positive it was Elliott’s finest.“We’ve seen him make that move before,” Jones said. “But I don’t know when I’ve ever seen him totally clear it.”While the Super Bowl champions are reeling, the Cowboys didn’t exactly look a serious threat to the NFC East crown. Prescott had 270 yards passing, tossed for one touchdown and also ran for a score. Elliott also had a TD reception , against an Eagles secondary depleted by injury.The Cowboys will need a win at Atlanta (4-5) next week and then a win Nov. 22 against division-leading Washington to really establish themselves as a playoff contender. It’s a leap of faith larger than anything attempted by Elliott that the Cowboys can wrest their way into the NFC playoff picture.But for a night, it was enough.“We had no choice but to win,” said Elliott, who cupped his hand to his ear as he walked off the field to boos.Garrett Mike Quick Jerseys 2019 , who has yet to lead Dallas to even an NFC title game, knew the magnitude of the rivalry game.“We were in a challenging situation,” he said. “We had to come up here and win a football game.”Both teams felt the pressure even before former President George W. Bush performed the coin toss . The Cowboys and Eagles got into a small pregame scuffle that ended on the sideline before players were ushered back into the tunnel.Dallas took a 10-3 lead into the half before Elliott and Prescott got rolling. Elliott ran in from the 1 to give Dallas a 27-20 lead after Prescott completed passes of 24 yards to Amari Cooper and 23 yards to Allen Hurns on the drive.It was the kind of drive that might have impressed Aikman. Aikman, who won three Super Bowls with the Cowboys, said this week “there has to be a complete overhaul of the entire organization .”The Cowboys just shrugged it off as just another controversy that didn’t concern them.“We’re Dallas Cowboys. You guys love to talk about us, you guys love to make stories,” Elliott said. “We’re used to ignoring all the extra stuff and focusing on us.”Eagles fans were spotted transporting a Cowboys coffin into Lincoln Financial Field , perhaps as a symbol of some sort of burial of Dallas’ season.Don’t hold those last playoff rites for the Cowboys just yet.“When you’re feeling low and you see the Grim Reaper,” Jones said Black Chuck Bednarik Jerseys , “and then you come in and have your team perform the way these guys did, I promise you, it is a special feeling.”

Thanksgiving means real, not ideological, inclusiveness. President Abraham Lincoln profoundly demonstrated this fundamental point. On Oct. 3, 1863, the White House issued the Thanksgiving Proclamation, declaring the last Thursday of November to be a “day of thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens.” He also humbly requested “the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore … peace, harmony, and [...]

BEGIN TAPE
Greetings. This is the New York Rare Bird Alert for Friday, November 29th 2019 at 9pm. The highlights of today's tape are GOLDEN-CROWNED SPARROW, BLACK GUILLEMOT, BROWN PELICAN, WESTERN KINGBIRD, NORTHERN SHRIKE, GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GOOSE, TUNDRA SWAN, ICELAND GULL, RED-HEADED WOODPECKER, LAPLAND LONGSPUR, YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT and more.
We've received no reports of the GOLDEN-CROWNED SPARROW visiting Brookside Park in Sayville since last Monday. This park is at 59 Brook Street across from Sayville High School and the feeders are behind the park building where the GOLDEN-CROWNED and accompanying White-throated Sparrows were seen most consistently. It still might be fruitful checking there for this bird.
Last Saturday morning a winter plumaged BLACK GUILLEMOT flew into Shinnecock Inlet and then floated back out again. Unfortunately the only time it was seen.
The immature BROWN PELICAN was still present Wednesday around the inlet to Montauk Harbor often sitting along the west side of the inlet or on sand beaches just inside the inlet.
Also in the Montauk area a NORTHERN SHRIKE was seen this morning at the Theodore Roosevelt County Park on the north side of Route 27 just west of the Deep Hollow Dude Ranch.
The WESTERN KINGBIRD at Jones Beach West End was last reported last Saturday near the Coast Guard Station.
Three TUNDRA SWANS, 2 adults and a young bird, were first spotted last Saturday on the East Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge and were still present today around the mid point of the pond. An immature GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GOOSE was found in a Canada Goose flock Tuesday in Dix Hills the flock frequenting a field at Half Hollow Hills High School West near the intersection of Wolf's Hill Road and Melrose Road. Vagrant geese, except for a few Cackling types have been scarce so far this fall. Though an escaped EMPEROR GOOSE in White Plains recently has raised hopes that more vagrants are on the way perhaps to be pushed down by the upcoming storm.
Last Saturday single ICELAND GULLS were at Playland Park in Rye and along the northeastern shore of Staten Island with 2 at Shinnecock Inlet Sunday when 7 LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULLS were also present along the Shinnecock beaches. Two LESSER BLACK-BACKEDS were also at Smith Point County Park Monday with another on with Central Park Reservoir Wednesday. A possible THAYER'S ICELAND GULL at Argyle Lake in Babylon last Saturday unfortunately got away before all salient field marks could be documented.
During the week COMMON GALLINULES were present at Mill Pond Park in Bellmore through today and on Lotus Lake in Sayville at least to Monday and a RED-NECKED GREBE was seen off Mount Loretto Unique Area on Staten Island Sunday.
An immature RED-HEADED WOODPECKER found Saturday in Central Park's north end was still present yesterday and an adult was spotted at Pelham Bay Park's Hunter Island on Tuesday.
A group of 9 LAPLAND LONGSPURS were identified Wednesday as they flew around the Riverhead sod fields off Route 105 just below Sound Avenue.
The YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT was present yesterday and today at Mill Pond in Bellmore and another continues at Marshlands Conservancy in Rye.
A VESPER SPARROW was still at the recently opened Shirley Chisholm State Park in Brooklyn last Saturday and other interesting late species have featured WHITE-EYED VIREO, LINCOLN'S SPARROW and various warblers including OVENBIRD, NASHVILLE, BLACK-THROATED GREEN and a WILSON'S lingering in Prospect Park.

If I built a school, the first thing you'd meet Are lots of cute puppies! They'd flock to your feet.
Heck! Jack would also add a few zoo animals to enliven the entryway! And getting to classrooms would be by pods shooting through pneumatic tubes!
Teachers in Jack's school would be spared the chores of cleaning chalky erasers or messy marker wipes:
Using a stylus, you write in the air. No blackboard. No whiteboard. No, nothing is there.
And forget the chore of pushing your desks together for group sessions. Jack's got the best gismos to speed up those lessons.
These are my hover desks. See how they glide? They even have bumpers in case they collide.
And Jack is thinkin' about a hologram of Lincoln--making a history lesson a 3-D session!. And to spice up gym sports, how's about trampoline-floored basketball courts? Or a cooling perimeter pool? And how about perks for the playground? Ziplines way up to the sky? And a twisty slide from three floors high?
And for sure, field trips should out-sizzle Ms. Frizzle in Jack's versatile vehicle which can morph-- from undersea to outer space--or any old place!
A guy can dream, can't he? In Chris Van Dusen's funny, fantasy picture book, If I Built a School (Dial Books, 2019), Jack's dream school has something for everyone, from critter-crazy kids to gismo geeks. Van Dusen's bouncy rhyming quatrains make this one a breeze to read, aloud or solo, and Van Dusen's brand of Seussian illustrations give Mulberry Street a run for the money in this new top-selling hit. Younger kids will laugh at the preposterous silliness, and older students will find the story line a great springboard for imaginative writers and young inventors, one that will fire up some creativity among the primary grade set.
Drainage update 11/26/2019
Upcoming Drainage Hearings or Meetings:
No upcoming hearings or meetings.
Project Updates:
CD48 (Cambria Twp.) Checklist items still remain after harvest is completed and things dry up. Mostly grading and in-take maintenance is all that’s left. Some televising also needs to be completed before the project is accepted officially.
JD09 (Le Ray Twp.) The north portion of this improvement project remains to be televised, but all of the southern portion of the improvement has been completed.
JD34 (Le Ray Twp.) We should see some final “punch-list” items being finished soon. Grading, televising and some minor tasks should be completed in 2019.
CD56 (Garden City Twp.) The SWCD staff have supposedly started as of last Friday, November 22, sampling the phosphorus levels before and after our the phosphorus filter. Learning from our neighboring state of Wisconsin, where they installed a similar phosphorus subsurface filter, the filter took a few months to really start seeing huge phosphorus reductions. We will definitely be monitoring our local phosphorus filter for years to come, with hopes of great results.
Water Storage Initiative:
There is a Water Storage Initiative Petition circulating. The purpose of the petition is to allow our fellow Minnesotans' voices to be heard regarding clean water efforts and securing long-term funding. The petition is focused locally for the Minnesota River Watershed area and benefitting southern Minnesota areas of water quality concerns.
The approach gives each individual Minnesotan a voice of contribution towards the future of clean water. The petition is looking to secure funds to support best management practices that incorporate water storage on the land, including wetland restorations, stormwater retention ponds, saturated buffer areas and many other erosion and sediment control type structures.
Speaking from the perspective of County Drainage, we are already doing much of this. We are always looking for ways and areas to improve water quality. With every major repair or improvement, we incorporate plans to include areas of possible water quality structures of various types. Not trying to toot our own horn, but just in the last year alone, Blue Earth County has secured almost $100,000 in grant funding for clean water practices towards various public drainage systems.
We (Blue Earth County Drainage) work very hard with our local SWCD and other groups to secure as much grant funding as we can to support as many clean water projects as we possibly can. Many of these clean water features, or BMP’s (best management practices) would not be installed without the funding from outside sources. It’s hard to get people on-board with spending thousands of dollars for clean water. However, I think it may become easier in the future with more people realizing how big of a difference these clean water projects make.
We will continue to work with our SWCD partners and other groups to secure more funding in the coming years, aimed at continuing to be a local driving force for cleaner water. Locally, we have great groups and people going the extra mile towards achieving cleaner water.

Recent Drainage Inspections – week of November 18 – November 22:
CD35 (Mapleton Twp.) Monitoring water levels and hopefully no new beaver activity.
CD57 (Mapleton Twp.) We are busy with televising areas of sink holes along some older portions of tile.
JD36 Brown (Cambria & Butternut Valley Twps.) Repairs slowly, but surely, continue to proceed for various areas along this drainage system.
CD28 (Lincoln Twp.) The new drop in-take structure is in place. The conditions have been just too wet and muddy for trucks to haul fill out across any fields.
JTD01 Far. (Sterling Twp.) Monitoring our outlet structure from Lura Lake. This structure is one of only two outlets to this lake.
CD56 (Garden City Twp.) Well, it was sink holes and collapsed tiles two weeks ago, now it's beavers building a high-rise hotel in a portion of our open ditch. Photo below doesn’t do true justice to the size of this beaver dam.
We require that all repairs to a county drainage system (tile or open ditch) be authorized by one us in the drainage office, either Craig or myself, before any repairs are made.

In February, 1974, just as the House Judiciary Committee’s impeachment inquiry into Watergate was getting under way, John Doar, the inquiry’s lead counsel, asked two young staffers to prepare a report. The impeachment of a President was, at the time, all but unprecedented—the only previous instance had taken place more than a century earlier, in 1868—and Doar wanted to know how he and the Committee ought to interpret the famously terse phrase “Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors,” which the Constitution, in Article II, Section Four, established as acceptable grounds for impeachment. One of the staffers assigned to the task was Hillary Rodham, a twenty-six-year-old Yale-trained lawyer who’d joined the staff after working at the Children’s Defense Fund. The other was Bill Weld, a twenty-eight-year-old attorney from a Boston law firm, who at that point was still nearly two decades away from being elected the sixty-eighth governor of Massachusetts. Rodham and Weld were among the earliest staff attorneys hired by Doar, and their first project was to determine what counted as impeachable conduct.
As Weld told me last week, the inquiry staff had set up shop in what had recently been the Hotel Congressional, a block away from the Capitol. Not long after Weld started, Doar called him and Rodham into his office. “He said, ‘Bill, Hillary, I need a memo on what’s grounds for impeachment or removal of a President, but it’s Friday afternoon, so what do you say? You have it on my desk Tuesday morning.’ So we went to the Library of Congress and looked in the law books and went nearly blind looking for a definition of what was an impeachable offense. Many weeks later, a whole bunch of us concluded, or realized, that you don’t look in the law books for that; you look in the newspapers.”
Weld found newspaper articles from Philadelphia in 1787, and comments in the Founders’ constitutional debates, about the impeachment of Warren Hastings, the governor-general of India, which would end in acquittal after a seven-year trial for high crimes and misdemeanors—specifically, gross maladministration, corruption in office, and cruelty. The lessons that the inquiry’s report took from English precedent were, on the one hand, that “high crimes and misdemeanors” had “no roots in the ordinary criminal law” and, on the other, that the phrase was used to describe parliamentary impeachments that had to do with “damage to the state in such forms as misapplication of funds, abuse of official power, neglect of duty, encroachment on Parliament’s prerogatives, corruption, and betrayal of trust.”
Weld is running against Donald Trump for the Republican Presidential nomination next year, but, unlike Mark Sanford, who was, briefly, another G.O.P. primary challenger, he thinks that there is no question that Trump ought to be impeached. When I asked what articles he would draw up this time around, he proposed three. “No. 1”—listed under the heading of bribery and extortion—“would be the Ukraine caper, because that’s such a classic example for impeachment,” he said. “The two things that the framers of the Constitution were most worried about were foreign interference in our affairs and corruption of office, by which they meant—and by which I mean—abuse of the President’s office in order to secure a personal gain, a private gain, whether it’s financial, whether it’s political, whether it’s for the President himself, whether it’s for his family.” Weld says that the evidence presented in the House Intelligence Committee’s public hearings in the past two weeks amounts to “the most quintessential, classical example for impeachment and removal that, frankly, I’ve ever seen or could conceive of. I’ve read the transcript of every page of every impeachment trial in the history of the United States, and there’s nothing like this.”
A second article, Weld suggested, might comprise the “ten examples of clear and convincing evidence of obstruction of justice, which are contained in Volume II of Bob Mueller’s report.” There, too, he said, “I can tell you, having conducted and supervised many obstruction-of-justice investigations, I’ve never seen evidence like that. I’ve never seen evidence so clear.” Weld said “a third possible article would be—similar to the third article against President Nixon—contempt of Congress.” On that front, “President Trump and his defenders have gone beyond any historical claim ever made,” he added, by asserting that “Congress has no authority to investigate him at all.” He alluded to a recent speech by William Barr, in which the Attorney General, as Weld put it, “said that the President’s power under Article II is so absolute that he can’t be questioned as to why he exercised the power.” That, Weld said, is “nothing other than the divine right of kings.”
Zoe Lofgren, a representative from California, also worked for Congress during Watergate, on the personal staff of one of the Democrats who served on the Judiciary Committee. Last week, as Alexander Vindman, a National Security Council director, and Jennifer Williams, an aide to Vice-President Mike Pence, testified in a lavish committee room three floors below her office, Lofgren recalled the arrival of the Watergate inquiry’s staff at the Hotel Congressional, which she remembers as a “really crummy building.” Though Lofgren was still a law student at the time, and had come to Washington to work on a bankruptcy bill, she helped draft one of the articles of impeachment against Nixon. “It was like trying to figure out, ‘We’ve got all this evidence—what are we going to do?’ ” she said. The articles came together quickly: Doar released a first set of proposed articles on Friday, July 19, 1974; public hearings on a revised set began the next Wednesday; and the first votes were held that Saturday, July 27th.
Lofgren is now the second-most senior Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, and a similar task will soon await her and her colleagues. Democrats on the Intelligence Committee, working in consultation with members on the Oversight and Foreign Affairs Committee, have already begun working on a report that will detail the results of the Ukraine investigation. As Ted Lieu, a Judiciary Committee member from California, told me last Thursday, “A number of people on the Intelligence Committee are going to have a very busy Thanksgiving. They will be writing a report to deliver to the Judiciary Committee, and we’ll get that some time in early December.” Once the Judiciary Committee receives the report, it will begin working, in close consultation with Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the House, to determine whether to bring articles of impeachment to the House floor, and what those articles ought to be. “I think if we’re going to go down the road to formal articles of impeachment,” Lieu said, “that we would do it before the end of the year.”
Democrats, for now, are being careful not to say anything too specific about what they expect in the coming weeks. In the two months since the whistle-blower complaint was delivered to Capitol Hill, the Democrats have deposed seventeen witnesses, and they have assembled a strikingly robust factual record of what happened in Kyiv and in Washington this summer. But the price of this remarkable pace is abandoning the luxury of extended planning: the forward-looking horizon of the Democrats and staff members working on the impeachment inquiry has lately been measured in days, not months. As a judicial-committee aide told me on Saturday, “So much of all of this is still being decided on. There’s nothing certain.”
And yet, there is little doubt that at least some articles will be filed. Lieu, for instance, told me that “people can disagree on whether, as a political matter, we should do impeachment, but I think, as a factual matter, the President engaged in misconduct that would qualify as impeachable conduct.” Less certain was how many and how broadly any articles associated with the Ukraine scandal would be framed. On Wednesday—after Gordon Sondland, the Ambassador to the E.U., testified not only that the President had demanded a quid pro quo from Volodymyr Zelensky, the President of Ukraine, but that Mike Pompeo, the Secretary of State, and even Vice-President Pence were aware of the demand—Eric Swalwell, of California, who sits on both the Intelligence and Judiciary Committees, told me that he’d seen “strong evidence” of bribery, abuse of power, and obstruction of Congress. Throughout the inquiry, the Trump Administration has refused to turn over documents to House Democrats, and Sondland complained repeatedly last week that he had not been allowed access to phone records, State Department e-mails, and other documents that would have helped him check his memory about certain details. While Swalwell was still reserving final judgment on which articles he thinks should be filed, he said of the Administration, “The only reason they’re blocking access is because it would help witnesses piece together this scheme rather than exonerate the President.”
A bigger question is whether Democrats will attempt to frame articles around any of the other matters that they have been investigating. A few weeks after Pelosi announced an official impeachment inquiry, in late September, an aide to the inquiry told me that two other Oversight Committee investigations were also being considered as part of the effort, one that examined the President’s potential violations of the Constitution’s foreign-emoluments clause, and another that looked into allegations by Michael Cohen, the President’s former personal lawyer and fixer, that Trump and his company had misled their lenders and the tax authorities about the value of their properties. What’s more, lawyers for the Judiciary Committee have recently argued in court that they are still considering whether to bring articles based on the Mueller report, especially for obstruction of justice.
Unlike in a criminal case, the Watergate report argued, “the cause for the removal of a President may be based on his entire course of conduct in office.” There has been no suggestion that the Democrats are now seriously considering such a broad indictment of the President. As Pramila Jayapal, a Democrat of Washington, put it to me, “This is not about ‘What do we not like about the President?’ and ‘Do we think he’s racist or not?’—which are things that trouble me deeply. But that’s not what this is.” Jayapal, like every other Democratic member I’ve spoken to, insisted that “we’ll literally just follow the relevant facts; we’ll take a look at all of the information in front of us, and then we’ll figure out where we go from there.” At the same time, she said, “what I am struck by as I’ve watched these proceedings is that Ukraine is really just a restatement of a pattern that we saw with the Mueller report.” As a hypothetical example of what a more broadly inclusive impeachment article might look like—“I’m not speculating on what the articles would be!” she said—Jayapal cited obstruction of Congress. Most of such an article, she explained, “could be around what happened with the Ukraine scandal, but you could potentially bring in some other pieces that reflect that pattern.”
For now, the odds appear to favor a narrow set of articles centered on Ukraine. Mary Gay Scanlon, for instance, the vice-chair of the House Judiciary Committee and a former attorney from Pennsylvania, told me, “I know, coming from a trial background, you can’t have the kitchen sink. You have to have a theory and go with it, and not clutter things up too much.” Lieu alluded to his past work as an Air Force prosecutor when he told me that “both for explaining to the American people, as well as to the jury, which in this case are a hundred senators, it’s always more effective to keep things straightforward and simple. You don't want to confuse the issues. Trump has engaged in a lot of misconduct. I think some of the misconduct voters can decide at a ballot box. The difference with the Ukrainian issue is that it directly affects elections.”
For other Democrats, the argument for presenting a narrow set of articles is historical in addition to being political. Lofgren, for instance, told me that she had opposed impeachment when the Mueller report was released. Even though “you had very clear instances of obstruction,” she said, “unless you can see what the coverup is covering up, and whether that activity meets the definition of high crime and misdemeanor, it doesn’t really take off.” In 1998, when she was a junior member of the Judiciary Committee, Lofgren filed a dissenting view in the Clinton impeachment, which she opposed in part based on her reading of the Watergate staff report. “The 1974 Report instructed us,” she wrote, “that: ‘not all presidential misconduct is sufficient to constitute grounds for impeachment. There is a further requirement—substantiality.’ ” As Lofgren described it to me last week, “There’s a lot of things that meet the criteria of bribery. Like, if you eat your peas, you get dessert. But the gravity issue is what damage has been done to the system of government? And what risk is there to the democracy? That’s what we have to decide.” And, although she professes to be reserving judgment for now—“you can’t rule out that something else could pop up tomorrow”—she allowed that “at this point the information that’s in the public arena that’s clear and overwhelming is the Ukraine matter.”
On Monday, a district-court judge is expected to decide whether Don McGahn, the former White House counsel, is required to comply with a congressional subpoena. The case is likely to be appealed, but its ultimate outcome will influence whether key witnesses in the Ukraine matter, such as Mick Mulvaney, the acting White House chief of staff, and John Bolton, the former national-security adviser, feel compelled to testify. Dangerous as the candid testimony of someone like Bolton could be for the President, any public hearings that the Judiciary Committee decides to hold could also present some risk for the Democrats. Unlike the Intelligence Committee hearings, and following the precedent of the Nixon and Clinton impeachments, any Judiciary Committee hearings will formally involve the President at every step: he will be allowed to request new witness testimony; he will be allowed to submit other evidence for the Judicial Committee to consider, including as part of a “full and fair record”; and his counsel will be allowed to attend all hearings, raise objections to any evidence, and question any witnesses. Subject to the approval of the Judiciary Committee chairman, Jerrold Nadler, the President’s counsel will also be allowed to make a concluding presentation, as Clinton’s White House counsel, Charles Ruff, did in 1998. (These rights, however, come with a significant caveat, which did not exist in the Nixon or Clinton impeachments: at Nadler’s discretion, the Judiciary Committee may decide to count any stonewalling by the President as evidence of obstruction of Congress; more drastically, Nadler can even prevent the President and his counsel from calling and questioning witnesses.)
Throughout the inquiry so far, Adam Schiff, the chairman of the Intelligence Committee, has successfully avoided one of the biggest political risks the Democrats ran in putting the Ukraine matter at the center of their impeachment push: namely, that the investigation of a corrupt and ham-handed attempt to smear Joe Biden would end up inadvertently smearing Joe Biden. There was, after all, more than a minor chance that the public hearings, by making reference to the accusations against Hunter Biden, might, perversely, have the same effect as the public announcement Trump demanded of Zelensky. During the past two weeks, Republicans used their time in front of the cameras to mention those accusations every chance they had; even so-called moderates, such as Will Hurd, of Texas, who acknowledged during the public hearing on Thursday that Trump’s call with Zelensky represented “inappropriate, misguided foreign policy,” argued that Hunter Biden’s activities in Ukraine were material to the investigation at hand. Schiff’s unwavering control of the proceedings largely neutralized this threat, but there is no guarantee that Nadler and the Judiciary Committee will have the same luck.
Compared to past impeachment pushes, Democrats’ effort this year has polled well, with most surveys showing majority support for impeachment of the President and more than a few showing majority support for his removal from office. But television ratings dropped each day in the course of the hearings, and, according to a poll tracker at FiveThirtyEight, support among independents for impeachment fell from forty-six per cent on the day before the hearings began to forty-one per cent on Saturday. The risk of diminishing returns is one reason that Mark Meadows, a Republican from North Carolina, told me last Thursday, during a break in the Fiona Hill and David Holmes hearing, that he expected Democrats to keep the articles of impeachment limited to Ukraine. “It’s very dangerous to broaden it out,” he said. “If they spent all this time on Ukraine, with public hearings, and on the impeachment effort, and then, all of a sudden, they throw in a couple of articles where they haven’t had this much time, that’s a hard thesis to support.” Meadows also expects the Intelligence Committee to present its report to the Judiciary Committee the week of December 2nd. “I think it goes at breakneck pace to get to Judiciary and to the floor,” he said. “Any momentum that the Democrats believe they have will only subside if they take a lot longer.”
Given that the House is still expected to impeach Trump on a party-line vote, or something very close to it, I asked Meadows if he thought that the Democrats had overplayed their hand politically. “We won’t know until November of 2020,” he told me. “In my opinion, will this cost some of their Democrat members of the House their seats? I think the answer is yes.” But, he added, “Sometimes, you know, if they believe that their cause is righteous, then that’s probably a cost worth paying.”
Most of the Democrats I spoke to recognize that, as Lieu put it, “it would be extremely difficult to get a conviction” in the Senate, even as they also insist, as Jayapal told me, that “tipping points happen very quickly with public sentiment, and they do depend on the people who have the microphone actually saying how people should think about something. It’s about us helping people to understand what is happening.” But, universally, they argue that what’s at stake in the impeachment fight cuts deeper than any short-term political calculation. “None of us is naïve about the likelihood that, even in the face of overwhelming evidence, the Republican Party is going to do the right thing here,” Sean Patrick Maloney, an Intelligence Committee member, told me after the hearings ended last Thursday. “But, at the end of the day, these things are going to be judged in the light of history, not just in terms of what happens over the next few weeks. I’m very confident about that judgment.”
In May, 2018, Schiff used an Op-Ed in the Times to warn Democrats against impeaching Trump. “Impeachment is an extraordinary remedy,” he wrote, “not to be entertained lightly, and in the case of a president, would mean putting the country through a deeply wrenching process.” In his closing statement on Thursday, however, he explained his reasons for changing his mind: “It came down to timing.” The day after Robert Mueller testified that the President invited Russian interference, he said, “Donald Trump is back on the phone asking another nation to involve itself in another U.S. election. That says to me this President believes he is above the law, beyond accountability.” This was a twist on the argument Democrats have been making for some time. The problem, as Schiff posed it, wasn’t only that Trump abused his power. It wasn’t even that he abused his power to cheat in an election, which was the usual answer to why impeachment, and not mere oversight, was the proper remedy for Trump’s behavior. The problem for Schiff, a former prosecutor, was that Trump was an unrepentant recidivist, a President who was going to keep abusing his office as long as he was allowed to do so.
Ultimately, it will be Nancy Pelosi who decides whether and how any articles of impeachment are framed. Pelosi is known as a meticulous vote-counter, and, given her general tendency not to make legislative moves without knowing that she has the firm support of her caucus, and also her reluctance to support impeachment in the first place, it seems likely that she will only allow articles that have a good chance of unifying Democrats behind them. Yet, in addition to these parliamentary practicalities, she is also, no doubt, alive to the deep symbolism of the choice that now confronts her. Assuming they pass a vote of the full House, the articles will stand as a durable historical marker, a lasting answer to the question of how Pelosi, one of the most effective Speakers of the House in the past century, used her majority to confront a President who, in Weld’s words, “so clearly wants to be a monarch.” In a private caucus meeting in late September, at which Pelosi first announced her support for the impeachment inquiry, television screens in the room quoted a speech that Abraham Lincoln delivered at Cooper Union, in New York, in 1859. “The people are the rightful masters of both Congresses, and courts,” Lincoln said, “not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert it.”
Today’s Thoughts From Rick – “A Day To Put Down The Electronics And Give Thanks”: Thanksgiving was intermittently celebrated on and off since 1789, with a proclamation by George Washington after a request by Congress; AND, did not become a federal holiday until Lincoln’s Presidency in 1863 (during the Civil War). Of all the Holiday’s... Continue Reading →
PRINCETON — It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood at Lincoln Elementary School.
The third- and fourth-grade students came sporting their best cardigans on Tuesday in honor of the late Mr. Fred Rogers, and little acts of kindness were conducted throughout the week to pay homage to his legacy and also in the spirit of Thanksgiving.
PES teachers Cindy Smith and Nicki Butler collaborated on the idea for a recognition week for Mr. Rogers.
“With Thanksgiving all about being grateful, we thought what better way than to focus on him this week,” Butler said.
“There are so many ways to talk about Thanksgiving, and Mr. Rogers is a safe way to talk about kindness and plus the kids have never seen any of his episodes.”
Butler’s students got acquainted with one of America’s most well-known television personalities through old episodes of his series, “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood,” which aired from 1968 to 2001.
As students got a kick out of it, they also got plenty of lessons on the themes he displayed throughout his program. One of the biggest focuses this week was on kindness and empathy. Fourth-graders even teamed up with the third-graders to display acts of kindness. Students and teachers throughout the building also participated in a food drive, proceeds of which were donated to Bureau County Food Pantry.
PES teacher Cindy Smith said one of Mr. Rogers’ more important lessons was showing that no matter how bad a situation is, there are always people who want to help and be kind.
“He had such a soft, calming presence, and he was all about routine. ... I think kids are lacking that today,” she said.
Butler also pointed out that Mr. Rogers handled tough subjects such as racism, death and murder and was able to talk to kids about these in an age-appropriate way.
“He gave kids lessons on empathy. Kids are not born with empathy. It’s something they’re taught and they learn through experience. A lot of kids don’t have that, and so this is just another way to reinforce empathy and show that you can be that helper,” Butler said.
PRINCETON — Next semester, when report cards go out for kindergarteners, parents may notice a more concise report on their student.
On Monday, the Princeton Elementary School Board approved revisions to the kindergarten report card, which are meant to make it an easier document for parents to follow and understand how well their students are doing in class.
The revisions don’t include any changes to assessment, but rather just cleaning up language to eliminate redundancies in the reporting.
PES kindergarten teacher Jessica Pinter said the report card used to be three pages long, but with the new revisions, the report is just short of two pages. She added being able to present a shorter report to parents won’t be so overwhelming for them to take in.
Before the board unanimously approved the revisions, Lincoln Elementary School Principal Kylee Gutshall, who taught kindergarten for 15 years prior to becoming principal this school year, explained to board members the assessment given to kindergarteners.
While at one time, kindergarten was never a graded program, she said PES kindergarten teachers took a different approach several years ago and went to standard base reporting to help parents better understand how their students were progressing.
The core subjects students are assessed in include math, English/language, fine motor skills, and behaviors and work habits.
Before standard base reporting, Gutshall said teachers were using pluses or minuses to track core subjects. The new form of grading uses the numeric system 0-4. A zero means there is no evidence to prove students have met the standard; 1 means there are gaps in understanding the standard; 2 means they’re progressing toward the standard; 3 means they understand the standard, and 4 means they’ve mastered the standard and could teach it to someone else.
“It zeroes in a little bit more specifically for parents to understand where those foundational skills are and how they are progressing, to make sure they have all those before moving on to the first grade and beyond,” Gutshall said.
PES Superintendent Tim Smith said this sort of grading system also allows teachers to keep reteaching the skills to students who need more opportunities to achieve it.
“The kindergarten teachers took a lot of time and effort creating this,” he said. “What they’ve done is made it more concise and easier to read for parents. … I commend the kindergarten teachers and Mrs. Bima for working hard on this.”

I'm fairly certain that you won't have to look too hard to find ways to Buy Local for the Holidays this year. There are events and opportunities on both sides of the bridge here in the Twin Ports, as well as in your own home town as well. Even though next Saturday is promoted as the Buy Local event of the year, you really don't have to wait till then to Think Local.
Benefits of buying local are many. You can actually meet the artisan, and build a relationship with a human being and not just a website. Yes, those A.I. "Assistants" seem to be getting pretty human these days, but there's nothing like a genuine smile with twinkling eyes. Neuroscience says the latter even provides a little dopamine rush.
When you buy local there's also a tax benefit. That is, these are folks who pay taxes locally and help support our community. Who knows where the money goes when you buy online?
Yesterday we visited the Duluth Farmer's Market at 14th Avenue East and Third Street. It was filled with crafters, cheese makers, potters, wreath-makers and all assortment of other creative expressions that would make a home cheerier or a Christmas stocking more delightful.
From there we crossed the bridge to Art on the Planet in Superior. Located on Tower Avenue within a half block of Belknap (park in the rear) it's got all kinds of cool things from wall art to goose quill pens, to Joe Carlson's 4-Leaf Clover pendants, to Kris Nelson Chair Art, and lots more.
I personally like to buy cards and keep them in a drawer where I can shuffle through to find just the right feeling to accompany a check I am sending someone or a birthday greeting. BUY LOCAL. Do as I do... And as I say.
If you do decide to get out and shop around next weekend, there will be the Outdoor Holiday Market on the corner of Hammond and Broadway, kitty-corner from the Red Mug there. Heike McDonald's spices, scarves, novelty items, and scenic gourds are just one booth to stop at. They will no doubt have a bonfire and other booths with friendly people. No robots. (Not yet, anyways.) If the cold is a bit much, grab a coffee at The Red Mug.
There will no doubt be bunches of places to find things in Duluth. Check out Karin Kraemer's Duluth Pottery, then grab another coffee across the street at the Folk School. Need a bite to eat? Tom Hansen has several places on that block now. What's your pleasure? And don't forget to check out the murals that have been added to the Lincoln Park "Craft District" these past couple years.
Now this is cool. A hollow gourd with a cresh inside, lit from within. You can find these at the Holiday Market next weekend in Superior. Look for Heike McDonald and say "Hi."

Did you know that for much of the 19th century, Thanksgiving was only celebrated by New Englanders and Northeastern transplants in the upper Midwest and New York? Learn more about Sarah Josepha Hale and why she so desperately wanted President Abraham Lincoln to adopt the idea of Thanksgiving as a national holiday. Show notes: Meet the Woman […]
When we think of Thanksgiving, we usually think of pilgrims and Indians gathered for a harvest feast at Plymouth, but it was Abraham Lincoln who gave us Thanksgiving as a national holiday. Prior to Lincoln, each state celebrated Thanksgiving on different dates according to the discretion of each state’s governor. In 1863, in the middle of the Civil War, Lincoln issued a presidential proclamation for a national day of Thanksgiving.After noting the many blessings of God in spite of the [...]

The big event takes place with local breweries/cideries from around Chicago who set up shop on the 5th floor ballroom and 6th floor skyline lounge of the DANK Haus German American Cultural Center. Each brewery will showcase at least two different craft beers, with some limited releases being offered. It’s sure to be an event you won’t want to miss!
MSNBC host Joy Reid said Republicans were acting like a "racial and religious cult" for President Trump in response to a poll that said a majority of them view Trump as a better president than Abraham Lincoln, saying they "almost worship him."
"There's a lot of ways if you look at like the public religion research institute numbers that, you know, it isn't just a pejorative to say that it's a cult," Reid said Saturday on her show, "AM Joy." "There's a lot of evidence that is a racial and religious cult of personality in which his base is solidly among the white evangelicals that almost worship him and say that he's the chosen one of God."
PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP: Thank you very much. Please. And it's always nice to begin by saying the stock market is up again. We just set another record. So we should say that.
Very substantially up and I think that is 132 times that we have set a record from the time we got elected on that very great day but it's good to know. A lot of people are very happy. We are doing well. Our country is doing very well in the first lady and I are delighted to welcome you all to the White House on this magnificent autumn day. On behalf of the entire Trump family I wish each and every one of you a very happy Thanksgiving. It's going to be a great Thanksgiving.
We are glad to be joined today by representatives David Rouzer and Jason Smith and a man who has done and I have to say they are warriors, they have all been great warriors, Mark Meadows thank you very much, the three of you please stand up.
They are warriors and agree people and Deb, thank you very much for being here. Thank you. Thanks also to the presidents of the National Turkey Federation, Joel Brandenberger and its Chairman Cameron Doughty who is here with his family and has wife (INAUDIBLE). Where is (INAUDIBLE)? Jan thank you very much. Please stand up for what you do. Also the head of butterball, Chairman of butterball.
That is the biggest there is. Great job and we appreciate your involvement. Thank you very much.
As we gather this week with loved ones across our beautiful land we give thanks to God for the many gifts that he has bestowed upon us. Today we also come together to honor the beautiful feathered friend, the noble Turkey and that's a beauty. It is said that Abraham Lincoln was the first President to spare a Thanksgiving turkey at the request of his son. In 1947 President Harry Truman accepted the first annual national Thanksgiving turkey. In the decades that followed presidents from Kennedy to Reagan would show mercy. See. That's a strong bird--to their birds but it was George HW Bush who first issued an official pardon.
In keeping with that tradition today I will issue a pardon to a pair of very handsome birds, butter and his alternate, bread. That's true. Look at you. Their names were chosen by these students of Harrells Christian Academy in North Carolina, great state. Bread and Butter were raised in Tar Heels state by farmer Willie Jackson who is here with us with his wife Tara and their lovely family and I want to thank you very much. Great job. Great job. Thank you very much.
Thankfully Bread and Butter have been especially raised by the Jackson's to remain calm under any condition which will be very important because they have already received subpoenas to appear in Adam Schiff's basement on Thursday.
It's true. Hundreds of people have. It seems the Democrats are accusing me of being too soft on Turkey but bread and butter I should note that unlike previous witnesses you and I have actually met. It's very unusual.
Very unusual. In any event I expect this pardon will be a very popular one with the media. After all turkeys are closely related to vultures. I don't know if I like that line but there is a little truth to it. But today after the birds will retire to Gobblers Rest at Virginia Tech, great college where they will be cared for and enjoy a terrific life.
This Thanksgiving we bow our heads in gratitude for the newfound prosperity and spirit that is taking place all across America. The country has never been more successful. Our military has been rebuilt. We captured the number one terrorist in the world and killed the number one terrorist in the world, al-Baghdadi and I want to thank our military because there is nothing like our military.
I want to thank Almighty God for shedding his grace on our nation. Our nation is special and we especially send our love to members of the United States armed forces serving all over the world. We are forever thankful for those who wear our nation's uniform and the families to support them, the families are so important. It could never be the same without those great families. Because of their selfless service millions of our fellow Americans are celebrating another wonderful Thanksgiving in safety and in peace and a very special country, a very special place, the Rose Garden at the White House. If you are looking back here that is the Oval Office. Some of you haven't been here before bed every time we walk onto the grounds of the White House we realize how special it is.
So now we reach the moment bread and butter have been waiting for so patiently their presidential pardons. Melania and I wish all of Americans a very happy and blessed Thanksgiving. We love you all. Butter, let's talk to you for a second because I'm going to do something that you are going to be very happy about. Oh, that looks like a dangerous bird.
It just escaped. Butter, I wish you a lot of luck I hereby grant you a full and complete pardon.
Full and complete.
Thank you all very much. That was great. A lot of fun. Thank you very much. Thank you.
I’m not a regular theater critic and this isn’t a review per se. It’s just one person’s take on what it was like when the pop culture phenomenon “Hamilton” descended on Altria Theater, Wednesday, Nov. 20. The smash hit musical is the hottest ticket of the year and the invitation to media night was our chance to see what all the fuss is about, four years after its debut on Broadway.
“Hamilton” has a cult of true believers and, at first glance, it’s easy to see why. This new school epic, which runs nearly three hours, feels like it sprung fully formed from the fertile mind of Lin-Manuel Miranda, who drew inspiration from the biography “Alexander Hamilton” by Ron Chernow. The musical won every award you can imagine (and then some) and we're just now getting the show on its third U.S. tour – not too shabby for a project begun during a Vassar College workshop by a guy who once wrote jingles for disgraced politician Eliot Spitzer.
From the opening note, it was clear that many in the crowd already knew these songs by heart and, with so much Virginia history in the lyrics, it felt like a home team crowd. When was the last time you saw people cheer every time a Founding Father bounded onstage? Like a Kehinde Wiley portrait come to life, these fathers are played by African-American actors who spend much of the production spitting history in bombastic and in-your-face fashion. While not my favorite era of hip-hop, the rapid-fire wordplay keeps you focused on the clever lyrics, lest you miss something. You quickly see that "Hamilton" doesn't push back too hard on any myths of the Founding Fathers, rather it glorifies and delights in them.
Midway through the first act, my initial reaction was that “Hamilton” felt like the producers of “Glee” staging a “West Side Story”-themed Super Bowl halftime show. The impressive scenic design by David Korins reminds me of an industrial Western set with massive wooden structures, while a rotating centerstage provides the most visual moments, such as the freezing of characters during a duel while others revolve around them like a scene from “The Matrix" or an expensive MTV video.
Most impressive was the ease with which Miranda weaves a tapestry of hip-hop, R&B, gospel, blues and jazz, a credit to his fluency in American culture and Broadway traditions. "Hamilton" is brimming with dense numbers that tend to fade into one another without pause; some of the funniest lines happen so quick you almost miss them. Bass lines boom like canons.
The ensemble performances were great: George Washington, who my program says was played by Paul Oakley Stovall, had a huge presence, his booming baritone delivering some of Miranda's best lines – he even got soulful in Act II, which I thought had far better songs. Lead Edrid Utomi was solid in the title role, if his voice seemed a little quiet, Bryson Bruce tackled Thomas Jefferson with memorable gusto and the Britpop segues from King George III (Peter Matthew Smith) were a fun comedic breather. However, some of the women characters struck me as a little regressive, almost like movable props. And while there are flipped races in roles, I didn’t notice any gender fluidity, which seems like a natural move for a production with this kind of modernization agenda.
One simple way to judge Broadway musicals is by whether the songs stick in your head. I can’t say that many of these did, none being hummed during my cab ride home (I was told it was too crazy to even think about parking around VCU). But the soundtrack is massively popular; maybe it's a generational thing. I might’ve liked more funky “Hamilton” flows in the vein of the socially conscious hip-hop I grew up on (Tribe, De La, Public Enemy) -- or if Miranda, who is Puerto Rican, had mixed in a little salsa maybe, or tried any new musical hybrids. These songs felt like lyrical exercises with soap opera transitions -- I thought of R. Kelly’s “Trapped in the Closet” reconfigured for the History Channel -- with hip-hop as the operatic ladder from which to disperse chunks of plot exposition in dizzying fashion.
For the sheer spectacle, you can see why “Hamilton” is so popular. It does breathe some fresh air and relevancy into the usual tourism-driven, franchise-happy world of Broadway. And it felt especially aimed at younger fans who probably would be bored to tears by Spielberg’s “Lincoln” and its handling of similar congressional intrigue.
Still I could never fully shake the weight of the heavy exposition, as if a bulky history book was being speed rapped by a Hot 97 cypher – and worse, the interpersonal character drama never amounts to much, which means (gasp! heresy) the action drags in spots with the drama a little unearned. But give this money-printing musical credit for never fully stepping off the gas, even if Miranda could’ve trimmed maybe 45 minutes for a tighter, more effective show.
The timely story of passionate immigrants building a new country is at the heart of “Hamilton,” and it’s easy to like the production's ambition and heart, as well as the shake-up of Broadway’s approach to hip-hop culture (which a friend and actual theater critic indicated was woeful). Regardless of warped historical facts, “Hamilton” will probably end up doing more than most high school classes to excite younger generations about U.S. history.
But I couldn't help lamenting a little: Weren’t there other characters back then who deserve a louder voice in the history books? Who might’ve also charmed audiences by rapping their stories onstage in 2019 and who, in essence, could tell the same story without the patriotic filters? Maybe Miranda could tackle Howard Zinn’s “A People’s History of the United States” one day.
"Hamilton" runs through Dec. 8 at Altria Theater. Tickets are still available.

Anlässlich der 125-Jahr-Feier der College View Church in Lincoln, Nebraska/USA, wurde ein nachdenklicher Rückblick in die Geschichte dieser lokalen Gemeinde der Freikirche der Siebenten-Tags-Adventisten präsentiert. Im Anschluss daran bat die Gemeindeleiterin, Dr. Linda Becker, im Namen der College View Church, farbige Adventisten um Vergebung für die Art und Weise, wie sie früher behandelt worden seien.
Gemäß OUTLOOK, der Kirchenzeitschrift für die Region des mittleren Westens der USA, sagte Dr. Linda Becker, Gemeindeleiterin: „In der Vergangenheit hat die College View Church Farbige nicht so behandelt, wie wir es hätten tun sollen. Sie wurden gebeten, auf der Galerie zu sitzen oder wurden sogar an der Eingangstüre wieder weggeschickt. Sie wurden nicht so aufgenommen wie die Weißen. Heute bitten wir unsere farbigen Freunde um Vergebung für das, was euch die vorherigen Generationen angetan haben. Es tut uns leid, dass wir euch nicht ebenso als Gottes Kinder gesehen haben, wie uns selbst. Wir bitten euch und Gott, uns zu vergeben. Möge Gottes Liebe alle Menschen erreichen, die in Zukunft in diese Kirche eintreten - unabhängig von Hautfarbe, Status oder Lebensumständen.“
Anschließend wurden die Teilnehmenden an der Feier eingeladen, im Wechsel mit der Gottesdienstleitung an einem speziell für diesen Anlass formulierten Gebet teilzunehmen. Dabei wurde das eigene Zukurzkommen bekannt, um Vergebung gebeten und das Versprechen gegeben, „Gottes Güte für alle Zeiten gemeinsam mit allen Brüdern und Schwestern anzubeten und zu feiern“.

Poppycock! Here is the truth......
Thanksgiving had been celebrated on the last Thursday of the month since the time of Abraham Lincoln. But, according to TIME, during 1939, the calendar had been unusual, as the month started on a Wednesday, so there were five Thursdays as opposed to four.
To restore some order, Roosevelt moved the national holiday to the second-to-last Thursday of the month (a change that many were unhappy with). Instead of focusing on the negative, Roosevelt attempted to justify his decision with a pro-shopping response: merchants would now have a holiday further from Christmas to allow for more shopping time. In a way, this birthed the consumer craze known as Black Friday nearly 80 years ago.
The following year (1940), the change stuck as the second-to-last Thursday (Nov. 21) was declared the official Thanksgiving Day. In 1941, he reportedly admitted that the switch was a mistake, but because the calendars were already printed with the third Thursday as Thanksgiving Day, it was too late to go back.
As 1941 ended, Roosevelt made the final permanent change, as he signed a bill making Thanksgiving Day fall on the fourth Thursday of November, regardless of if it is the last Thursday of the month or not.
And for 2019, you may be thinking, "When is Thanksgiving?" This year, the month of November begins on a Friday, which means the fourth Thursday of the month falls on Nov. 28—it's the first time Thanksgiving has been this late since 2013.
The University of Illinois Springfield cross country program has come far since its humble beginnings in 2015.
Sophomores Blake Jones and Tayrn Christy will appear as the first UIS runners ever in Saturday’s NCAA Division II Cross Country National Championship Meet at the Arcade Creek Cross Country Course in Sacramento, California.
Jones, a Lincoln High School graduate, earned the men’s at-large bid after taking eighth place in the Midwest Region meet at 31:42.3 while Christy, of Geneva, clinched the women’s automatic berth by finishing fifth in 21:09.9. Both were school records.
“They’re extremely hard workers,” Coach Tyler Pence said of Jones and Christy. “They do all of the little things right. It’s not surprising that they’re qualifiers at this meet. They’ve got the total package.”

A Richard Murphy Colloquium by Prof. Sylvia Kahan: "Music's Modern Muse: The Fabulous Life of Winnaretta Singer-Polignac"
--
Sylvia Kahan is Professor of Music at the Graduate Center and College of Staten Island, CUNY, where she is a member of both the Piano and Musicology faculties. As a pianist, she has performed as concerto soloist, recitalist, and chamber musician in all of New York’s major halls and in concerts venues throughout North America and Europe. Her recitals have been broadcast on WQXR, WNYC, and National Public Radio. She has participated in the Tanglewood, Aspen, Waterloo, Delta, and Nancy (France) summer festivals. She has collaborated with the English Chamber Orchestra, sopranos Dame Felicity Lott, Roberta Peters and Shirley Verrett, and members of the New York Philharmonic, Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, and San Francisco Symphony. As a musicologist, Sylvia Kahan specializes in late 19th-century and 20th-centry French music and culture. She has written on women’s roles as music patrons in Paris and New York, Proust and music, 19th-century music criticism, Nadia Boulanger, Claude Debussy, Gabriel Fauré, Edgard Varèse, French mélodie and opera, and the history of octatonicism. Her two books, Music’s Modern Muse and In Search of New Scales (both published by University of Rochester Press), have received outstanding reviews. Music’s Modern Muse served as the inspiration for a lecture and concert produced by the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, and for a segment on Winnaretta Singer-Polignac in the Smithsonian Channel's series, Million Dollar American Princesses. It has recently been published in 2nd edition and French translation as Winnaretta Singer-Polignac: Princesse, mécène et musicienne (Les Presses du reel). Sylvia Kahan served two terms as President of the American Musicological Society-New York Chapter.

About the Colloquium
The Richard Murphy Musicology Colloquium was begun in 1992 by Professor Claudia Macdonald to foster an exchange of ideas on music between colleagues in both the conservatory and college. The series was expanded in 1997 to include outside speakers, and named in honor of Richard Murphy, who taught music history at Oberlin from 1946 to 1978, and was much revered and beloved by his students. He died in 1993.
When we think of Thanksgiving, we usually think of pilgrims and Indians gathered for a harvest feast at Plymouth, but it was Abraham Lincoln who gave us Thanksgiving as a national holiday. Prior to Lincoln, each state celebrated Thanksgiving on different dates according to the discretion of each state’s governor. In 1863, in the middle of the Civil War, Lincoln issued a presidential proclamation for a national day of Thanksgiving.After noting the many blessings of God in spite of the [...]

THE SOUTH ORMSBY ESTATE:
Do you have a hands on approach to maintenance, security and health and safety? We are looking for an Hall Steward/Caretaker
South Ormsby, Lincolnshire
Democrats running the House are planning today to release their bogus report on fake and made up crimes supposedly committed by President Trump that would warrant impeaching President Trump.
President Trump is arguably the best US President since Lincoln, the last great President removed from office by Democrats.
Lincoln was assassinated after holding the country together and freeing Democrat owned slaves during the great Civil War. President Trump is too good for the Democrats. He has an 'America First' agenda which the traitorous Democrats and elites despise.
It's time that we Americans stand and call this what it is. This is another Democrat attempt to remove a President through any means necessary. It is seditious and treasonous. The Democrats in the 1860's that were in on the Lincoln assassination were killed in their escape or hanged high.
We are entering a new phase when it's time to hold all seditious and treasonous Democrats who actively act to remove President Trump from office to the same fate!
In April 1865 the young country of the United States of America ended its Civil War. Only days after the war ended Republican President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated. The war started when Southern State Democrats seceded from the Union and started their own country. These Democrats would not recognize the Republican President of the United States.
Four years later, after more American deaths than any war in US history, the war ended. Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves in the South in the process. This did not sit well with Southern Democrats so they connived a coup attempt to overthrow the government and in so doing assassinated President Lincoln.
Several hundred people were arrested by the government after the Lincoln assassination but most were soon released due to lack of evidence. However, the government did charge and eventually hang four people for their actions related to the murder of the Republican President and for their attempt to over throw the government.
This is America's second Democrat coup attempt!
The Democrats and their Deep State and corrupt media connived a plan to remove President Trump through the made up crime that Trump 'colluded' with Russia to win the 2016 election. This was nonsense as this 'crime' isn't even a crime in our statutory books.
The investigation started without any crime being committed and with a scope that allowed Mueller to look at anything, both against the law. The team put together never would have been allowed in a real court of law because they were all Trump haters and former Hillary Clinton allies. The media never addressed this but then again, the media was part of the attempted coup! There are at least ten reasons why the Mueller coup was unconstitutional and illegal.
Mueller remained silent during the coup while his compatriots in the Deep State DOJ and FBI leaked abusive and dishonest stories to their pawns in the media. The media also kept cheering on Mueller and called him a man of integrity. This was clearly not the case for Mueller's past is full of questionable and corrupt actions while cleaning up messes for the Clintons and other allies in the government.
Eventually Mueller indicted the less fortunate and a group of made up Russians with made up crimes. As of October of last year the Mueller team had indicted 37 individuals and 3 companies, with more than 80% of the indicted individuals related to Russians who may not even be real and probably had nothing to do with our 2016 election.
Mueller's gang was asked to investigate Russian collusion but they only looked at the Trump team and those connected to President Trump. Over 100 times the Deep State DOJ, FBI and Mueller gang deviated from standard practice or committed crimes in an effort to exonerate Hillary Clinton from crimes and indict Trump.
Good men like General Mike Flynn and Roger Stone were mere casualties. Like the Union and Confederate soldiers in the Civil War, to hell with life and liberty, move on with the coup and secession from the Union.
Early on it was suspected that the coup was merely an attempt to harass and remove the President while covering up Deep State crimes. Perhaps it was. Regardless, Americans were very angry with Mueller, the media, the Deep State and the Democrat gang who attempted to overthrow the US government.
Their efforts over three years led to the Mueller report as a result of their Special Counsel investigation. After interviewing, harassing and indicting literally thousands of individuals close to President Trump for any crimes they could connive, they finally completed their investigation after Bill Barr stepped in as Attorney General. After tens of millions spent by the government on the tax payer's dime, and no doubt matching amounts paid for by the President and those close to him in attorney fees, we thought the sham was over.
There was no collusion. It was all an 'obstruction trap' and Representative Nunes referred to it. Barr rightly reported 'no collusion and no obstruction'. If the gang who worked with Mueller would have had anything remotely close to a crime, they would have reported it, but they did not because they could not.
This is a coup!
As soon as the Mueller sham was over, and even before, the Deep State was again planning for their next seditious action to remove President Trump from office. As the Mueller sham was winding down, the Deep State decided to use a call the President made to the newly elected President of the Ukraine for their coup attempt.
Deep State operatives in the White House were spying on the President. Another gang of them listened in on the President's call and then attempted to change the transcript of the call. The President wisely secured the official transcript so it couldn't be edited.
Eventually the gang of Deep State spies and leakers, including a former Ambassador to the Ukraine, young undercover CIA agents spying in the White House and at least one US Representative overseeing a sham committee in the House leaked out their plan.
Like John Wilkes Booth, these seditious traitors think they are in the right. They are blinded by their hate for President Trump based on fear that their actions during the prior Obama Administration will get called out.
Today these actors push forward another plan to remove President Trump from office. The Democrats who run the House are in on it. Although no laws were broken (by the President) they believe the President must be impeached.
Americans have had enough!
It's time for investigations and indictments of these Deep State actors who are attempting this coup of our government. Representatives and Senators in on it should not be exonerated. Hang them if that is what the law requires. Americans want justice! Without justice we have no country!

As the 2020 session of the Nebraska Legislature approaches, the state’s rural broadband policy is ripe for new development.
Rural broadband in Nebraska has seen two big changes in recent months, first when the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) announced its plan for a new broadband mapping requirement. Also, Nebraska’s Rural Broadband Task Force finished its report, which recommends policy change to strengthen rural broadband.
In August, the FCC announced the start of a new program called Digital Opportunity Data Collection. The program includes a new rule requiring Internet Service Providers to report their broadband coverage on a more localized level. Prior to the new rule, the data was collected at the census tract level, which can be as large as a county. With the changed rule, the data reporting level will be more granular, such as a precinct or parcel of property.
The FCC plans to release their full plan for the data collection at a later date. The plan is expected to outline changes to the data submission process for Internet Service Providers and develop a way to crowdsource for accuracy.
In October, after a year-long study, the Nebraska Rural Broadband Task Force announced its final findings. Their report addresses access, mapping, and alternative technologies, among other topics.
According to the report, Nebraska lags the U.S. and neighboring states in fixed and mobile broadband availability.
To enhance federal broadband mapping, the task force encourages crowdsourcing efforts. This is a key recommendation that should be developed into a Broadband Data Validation Program. The FCC also spoke to the need for “a process to collect public input on the accuracy of service provider’s broadband maps.”
The FCC is situated to gather and use the data; however, we do not believe they are as well positioned for validation of the reported information. The state has superior resources for obtaining local feedback to validate the reported data.
The findings also address the need to improve how the state helps fund rural broadband through the Nebraska Universal Service Fund and Public Service Commission. Partnerships between public bodies and private internet providers are important for efficient development in underserved areas. This includes changes to dark fiber leasing, rights of way, and private easement.
Soon, the legislature will act on the proposals. You can review the task force’s findings in their report. In addition, the Transportation and Telecommunications Committee will hold a hearing on the report on Dec. 4, at 1 p.m., in Room 1507, at the Nebraska State Capitol, in Lincoln. The public will have a chance to give testimony during the hearing.

FAIRFIELD — Fairfield residents are in for a bout of déjà vu.
About 2,200 people voted in the city’s mayoral race in November, and they’ll have a chance to vote for that very same race on Tuesday, Dec. 3. The three-way race was between Michael Halley, Connie Boyer and Ed Noyes. Halley received 1,055 votes, good for 47.6 percent, to Boyer’s 883 votes (39.8 percent) and Noyes’s 277 votes (12.5 percent).
Since no candidate won a majority of the votes, city code requires that the top two vote-getters — Halley and Boyer in this case — compete in a run-off election. The run-off election will be only for the mayor’s race, and Boyer and Halley will be the only two options on the ballot. Whoever wins will assume the office held by Ed Malloy for the past 18 years.
Rules for the run-off election are the same as those for the regular election in November. Polling places will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Dec. 3.
The city’s five polling places are:
First Ward — Fairfield High School Auditorium Lobby
Second Ward — Former Lincoln Elementary School
Third Ward — Nazarene Family Center
Fourth Ward — Jefferson County Courthouse
Fifth Ward — Pence Elementary School
Those who are unsure of their polling place may contact the Jefferson County Auditor’s Office at 641-472-2840, or by email at auditor@jeffersoncountyia.com.
Voters may cast an absentee ballot by voting early at the Jefferson County Courthouse during its normal business hours of 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, now through Election Day. The courthouse will be closed for voting on Thursday and Friday, Nov. 28-29. On Monday, Dec. 2, the courthouse will remain open 30 minutes later than usual, until 5 p.m.
Registration
Preregistered voters are required to provide an approved form of identification at the polling place before receiving and casting a regular ballot. Voters who are not preregistered — such as voters registering to vote on Election Day — and voters changing precincts must also provide proof of residence. A voter who is unable to provide an approved form of identification (or prove residence if required): 1) may have the voter’s identity/residence attested to by another registered voter in the precinct, 2) prove identity and residence using Election Day Registration documents, or 3) cast a provisional ballot and provide proof of identity/residence at the county auditor’s office by noon on Wednesday, Dec. 4, 2019.
Election Day Registrant attesters must provide an approved form of identification. For additional information about providing proof of identity and/or residence visit: https://sos.iowa.gov/voterid or call the auditor’s office at 641-472-2840.
Any voter who is physically unable to enter a polling place has the right to vote in the voter’s vehicle. Any voter may declare upon oath that the voter is blind, has an inability to read or write, or is, by any reason of physical disability other than intoxication, unable to cast a vote without assistance. The voter may request assistance from a precinct election official or anyone in the polling place except the voter’s employer, employer’s agent, or an officer or agent of the voter’s union.

Historiquement, Thanksgiving était un jour de fête dans les sociétés européennes paysannes durant lequel on remerciait Dieu par des prières et des réjouissances pour les bonheurs que l’on avait pu recevoir pendant l’année. Cette célébration est désormais laïque en Amérique du Nord, les administrations et la plupart des entreprises étant fermées ce jour-là.
Tableau de Jennie A. Brownscombe (1914) représentant Le premier Thanksgiving à Plymouth.
Les survivants ne durent leur salut qu'à l'intervention d'un autochtone nommé Squanto qui, avec l'aide de sa tribu, les Wampanoags, leur offrit de la nourriture, puis leur apprit à pêcher, chasser et cultiver du maïs.
Afin de célébrer la première récolte, à l’automne 1621, le gouverneur William Bradford décréta trois jours d'action de grâce. Les colons invitèrent alors le chef des Wampanoags, Massasoit, et 91 de ses hommes à venir partager leur repas en guise de remerciement pour leur aide. Durant ce festin, des dindes sauvages et des pigeons furent offerts.
Les Pères pèlerins tinrent une célébration encore plus grande d'action de grâce en 1623, après un passage de l'agriculture communale à l'agriculture privatisée et après une plus grande moisson grâce à de la pluie inattendue.
Le 29 juin 1671, Charlestown tint le premier Thanksgiving décrété par une administration publique.
Au cours du xviiie siècle, les colonies ont généralement observé tous les ans des jours de Thanksgiving. Ce n'était pas un jour marqué par la nourriture et la boisson abondantes comme c'est aujourd'hui la coutume, mais plutôt un jour de prières et de jeûne.
Pendant la guerre révolutionnaire américaine, le Congrès continental nommait tous les ans un ou plusieurs jours de Thanksgiving, chaque fois recommandant aux dirigeants des divers États l'observance de ces jours dans leurs États. La première proclamation nationale de Thanksgiving a été donnée par le Congrès continental en 1777.
En tant que président, le 3 octobre 1789, George Washington fit la proclamation suivante et créa le premier Thanksgiving Day décrété par le gouvernement national des États-Unis d'Amérique :
« Une proclamation du président des États-Unis d'Amérique. Considérant que c'est le devoir de toutes les Nations de reconnaître la providence de Dieu Tout-puissant, d'obéir à sa volonté, d'être reconnaissantes pour ses bienfaits, et humblement implorer sa protection et sa faveur, et tandis que les deux Chambres du Congrès m'ont, par leur Comité mixte, demandé de recommander au Peuple des États-Unis qu’un jour public d'action de grâce et de prières soit observé en reconnaissance aux nombreux signes de faveur de Dieu Tout-puissant, particulièrement en ayant donné au Peuple les moyens d'établir pacifiquement une forme de gouvernement pour sa sûreté et son bonheur. Maintenant donc, je recommande et assigne que le premier jeudi après le 26e jour de novembre soit consacré par le Peuple de ces États au service du grand et glorieux Être, qui est l'Auteur bienfaisant de tout ce qu'il y a eu, qu'il y a et qu'il y aura de bon. Nous pouvons alors tous nous unir en lui donnant notre sincère et humble merci, pour son soin et sa protection, appréciés du Peuple de ce Pays, avant que celui-ci ne soit devenu une Nation de pitié ; pour les interpositions favorables de sa Providence lors de nos épreuves durant le cours et la fin de la récente guerre ; pour le grand degré de tranquillité, d'union, et d'abondance, que nous avons depuis appréciées ; pour le pacifisme et la raison qui nous ont été conférés pour nous permettre d'établir des constitutions de gouvernement pour notre sûreté et notre bonheur, en particulier la Loi nationale récemment instituée, ; pour la liberté civile et la liberté religieuse formant à elles seules une vraie bénédiction ; pour les moyens que nous avons d'acquérir et de répandre la connaissance utile ; et d’une manière générale pour toutes les grandes et diverses faveurs qu’il nous a bien heureusement conférées. Nous pouvons alors nous unir en offrant le plus humblement nos prières et supplications au grand Seigneur et Gouverneur des Nations et le solliciter pour pardonner nos transgressions nationales et autres transgressions ; pour nous permettre à tous, en poste public ou privé, de remplir nos nombreuses fonctions respectives, correctement et ponctuellement ; pour permettre à notre gouvernement national de rendre bénédiction à toutes les personnes, en étant constamment un Gouvernement de lois sages, justes, et constitutionnelles, discrètement et loyalement exécutées et obéies ; pour protéger, guider et bénir tous les Souverains et toutes les Nations (particulièrement celles qui ont montré de la bonté envers nous), afin de leur assurer paix et concordance, et assurer un bon gouvernement ; pour favoriser la connaissance et la pratique vraies de la religion et de la vertu, ainsi que davantage de science parmi eux et nous, et accorder généralement à toute l'Humanité un tel degré de prospérité temporelle comme lui seul sait pour être le meilleur.

George Washington proclama de nouveau un Thanksgiving en 1795. Le président John Adams proclama des Thanksgivings en 1798 et 1799. James Madison renouvela la tradition en 1814, en réponse aux résolutions du Congrès, à l'issue de la guerre de 1812. En 1816, le gouverneur Plamer du New Hampshire désigna le jeudi 14 novembre comme un jour férié et le gouverneur Brooks du Massachusetts nomma le jeudi 28 novembre comme "jour de Thanksgiving à observer dans tout cet État". Un jour de Thanksgiving fut annuellement nommé par le gouverneur de l'État de New York à partir de 1817. Dans certains des États sudistes, il y avait opposition à l'observance d'un tel jour du fait que c'était une relique de bigoterie puritaine, mais en 1858 des proclamations nommant un jour de Thanksgiving furent publiées par les gouverneurs de 25 États et de 2 territoires.
Au milieu de la guerre civile américaine, le président Abraham Lincoln, incité par une série d'éditoriaux écrits par Sarah Josepha Hale proclama un jour national de Thanksgiving, qui soit célébré le dernier jeudi de novembre 1863. Depuis 1863, on a observé annuellement Thanksgiving aux États-Unis.
Cependant, au fil du temps, la date de la célébration changea. Le changement le plus récent eut lieu en 1939, alors que Franklin Delano Roosevelt était président des États-Unis : Roosevelt proposa la journée nationale de Thanksgiving par proclamation le quatrième jeudi de novembre en partie parce que la nation était à l'époque au milieu d'une terrible dépression économique (il voulait ainsi donner plus de temps aux achats de Noël).
Manifestations amérindiennes
Depuis l’époque des Pères pèlerinsévangéliques, Thanksgiving est, pour les Américains, une manière de remercier Dieu de la qualité providentielle du Nouveau Monde et de la bonne entente avec les populations indigènes.
Or, pour quelques groupes amérindiens, ce jour représente le point de départ de la destruction de leur continent et des guerres indiennes. En 1676, le gouverneur de Charlestownprofita même de ce jour pour célébrer une victoire sur les Amérindiens. Depuis les années 1970, des manifestations sont organisées en mémoire des Amérindiens (pas tous les ans).

School districts sent letters to parents saying they would no longer put children in locked rooms, while the head of the Illinois State Board of Education apologized to families and said the law that had been in effect “did not sufficiently regulate” isolated timeout, causing “lasting trauma.”
Illinois officials issued emergency rules banning isolated timeouts and some types of physical restraint on Wednesday, the day after ProPublica Illinois and the Chicago Tribune published an investigation that revealed widespread misuse of seclusion rooms. State and federal lawmakers are vowing to seek a permanent ban next.
The hectic week also saw the governor’s office file complaints against eight school districts named in the news story, prompting the state Board of Education to open investigations in those districts and to pledge to look into others where families raise concerns. State investigators who believe school employees committed crimes against children will refer those individuals to law enforcement, and those who investigators believe committed abuse or neglect will be referred to the Department of Children and Family Services, a state board spokeswoman said Friday.
For the Tribune/ProPublica Illinois investigation, reporters examined 20,000 incidents of isolated timeout from September 2017 to December 2018 and found students were put in isolation every day for reasons that violated the law, including as punishment or to force compliance. State law, in place for two decades, said isolated timeouts should be used only when students pose a safety threat to themselves or others.
“These accounts are disturbing, and we recognize and appreciate they may be concerning to parents, students, staff, and members of the community,” the superintendent of Northern Suburban Special Education District in Highland Park wrote in a letter to parents, adding that isolated timeout was used only “as a last resort” for safety reasons. “NSSED is closely monitoring this situation and will continue to abide by ISBE’s guidance.”

At the state board’s regularly scheduled meeting Friday morning, state Superintendent Carmen Ayala directly addressed students and parents affected by the use of seclusion detailed in the ProPublica Illinois/Tribune investigation.
“What happened to you is appalling, inexcusable and deeply saddening,” Ayala said. “The Illinois State Board of Education will aggressively investigate all cases and pursue disciplinary and corrective action to the full extent of the law.”
The investigation revealed how children begged to be released from seclusion rooms, cried out in desperation and rammed into the walls in anger. Staff members kept moment-by-moment logs that often included the children’s own words while in isolated timeout.
Speaking at the ISBE board meeting, school leaders and advocates for people with disabilities called seclusion a “very serious form of child abuse” and a “stain on the fibers of our school buildings.” They praised the emergency ban but said it must become law.
Mark Klaisner, who heads the Illinois Association of Regional Superintendents of Schools, offered his group’s help as ISBE develops permanent rules. The emergency rules expire in 150 days.
“No emergency rules are ever perfect, but something needed to be done immediately and we support that 100%,” Klaisner said. “We think you did the right thing this week by putting your foot down firmly.”

A parent at Bridges Learning Center, which is operated by the Kaskaskia Special Education District in southern Illinois, said she saw staff carrying away the doors of the school’s timeout booths. Wendy Short said she was there to tell school officials that her son would not be returning and to get records of his time in the booths.
Bridges was highlighted in the Tribune/ProPublica Illinois investigation; the school had used isolated timeout 1,288 times in 15 months. It has about 65 students. The district’s director confirmed Friday that the doors had been removed.
As schools adjust to the emergency rules, some parents told reporters Friday that school administrators had forced them to pick up children whom employees had wanted to seclude but could not.
In East Moline, Kirsten Montgomery said she was summoned by a teacher after her 7-year-old son threw objects at school. The staff at The Center, which is operated by the Black Hawk Area Special Education District, told her the boy couldn’t stay there because they could no longer use the “cool-down room,” she said.
School workers also wanted Montgomery to force her son to clean up the mess he’d made, she said.
She wondered: If his behavior was so unsafe that he couldn’t be at school, why would he be safe enough to stay and clean? She said she took her son home.
“I’d much rather him be home with me than locked in a room and scared and angry and hurting himself,” Montgomery said. She said her son had badly bruised his arm as he repeatedly hit the window of the school’s timeout room while there for two hours on Tuesday, wanting to be let out.
The Tribune/ProPublica Illinois investigation documented about 850 seclusions at The Center in the time period examined. Christan Schrader, director the Black Hawk district, declined to comment on the incident, citing student confidentiality.
Jason Mann, who sends his son to Giant Steps in suburban Lisle, said the school asked that the boy be picked up. “They sensed he was about to go into crisis,” Mann said. “What happens on Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday?”
Mann said he feels the now-banned tactics are necessary. “The state took away a few key tools,” he said.
The Lisle private school serves students with autism who often are transferred there when they can’t be educated in their traditional public school. The school’s executive director, Sylvia Smith, said staff must use prone restraint — a physical restraint in which students are put face-down on the floor — to calm some students. Without prone restraint and isolated timeout as options, there will be students whom Giant Steps can’t serve, she said.
“We can’t help them to self-regulate because we don’t have the same tools we had just yesterday,” Smith said. She said students are restrained face-down on the ground if they are biting, hitting or kicking. “If we cannot bring this child into regulation, we have to call 911.”
Kevin Rubenstein, president of the Illinois Alliance of Administrators of Special Education, pledged to work with ISBE to address issues that emerge. “As advocates of children we must address these facts: Some of our schools have staff that are poorly trained; other schools have staff that are not sure how to support students with challenging behavior,” he said.
He ended his testimony by listing several of the children whose experiences with seclusion were highlighted in the ProPublica Illinois/Tribune investigation.
“Isaiah, Eli, Dalton, Jace, Zayvion and Gabriel, and every child in our state deserves better,” he said.
Deputy Gov. Jesse Ruiz on Wednesday filed nine complaints on behalf of children named in the investigation. Two are focused on the Kansas Treatment and Learning Center, run by the Eastern Illinois Area Special Education district in Charleston.
The other complaints are against the Kaskaskia Special Education District, the Black Hawk Area Special Education District, Lincoln-Way Area Special Education, Northern Suburban Special Education District, Tri-County Special Education, Vermilion Association for Special Education and the Special Education District of Lake County.
ISBE spokeswoman Jackie Matthews said schools found to have violated the law face various consequences. Educators could have their licenses suspended or revoked or have to undergo training. Schools could be put on probation or lose their recognition status, which can make them ineligible for state funding.
The emergency rules say that when a student is taken to timeout, a trained adult must be with him or her in the room and the door can’t be locked. The rules apply to any school that serves public school students, including private schools that students attend when they can’t be served by their home districts.
The rules also address the use of physical restraint, including by banning restraints in which a child is on the ground and where their ability to breathe may be restricted.
The rules require school districts to alert ISBE of all instances of timeout and physical restraint within 48 hours, as well as to provide data dating back three school years. State officials had not previously monitored these practices.
State and federal lawmakers are also taking action.
On Thursday, state Rep. Jonathan Carroll, D-Northbrook, filed a bill that would ban seclusion at schools entirely. As of Friday afternoon, it had 46 co-sponsors.
U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin tweeted this week that he would support legislation to end seclusion, which he called a “medieval practice.” And U.S. Rep. Don Beyer, D-Virginia, said he plans to reintroduce legislation that stalled last year — the Keeping All Students Safe Act — that would prohibit seclusion and limit the use of physical restraint in all public schools that receive federal funds.
“The stories you reported from Illinois were sadly very similar to those we’ve heard in Virginia and from across the country, and they will certainly have bearing on the bill,” Beyer said. “I have a lot of confidence that this will be the law in our country in a short to medium time period, six months to two years.”

On October 3rd 1863, President Abraham Lincoln issued a Thanksgiving Day Proclamation which would set the last Thursday of every November as an official holiday of Thanksgiving. During his administration, President Lincoln issued many orders similar to this. For example, on November 28, 1861, he ordered government departments closed for a local day of thanksgiving.
The proclamation came about because Sarah Josepha Hale, a 74-year-old magazine editor, wrote a letter to Lincoln on September 28, 1863, urging him to have the "day of our annual Thanksgiving made a National and fixed Union Festival." She explained, "You may have observed that, for some years past, there has been an increasing interest felt in our land to have the Thanksgiving held on the same day, in all the States; it now needs National recognition and authoritive fixation, only, to become permanently, an American custom and institution."[1]
Prior to this, each state scheduled its own Thanksgiving holiday at different times, mainly in New England and other Northern states. President Lincoln responded to Mrs. Hale's request immediately, unlike several of his predecessors, who ignored her petitions altogether. In her letter to Lincoln she mentioned that she had been advocating a national thanksgiving date for 15 years as the editor of Godey's Lady's Book. George Washington was the first president to proclaim a day of thanksgiving, issuing his request on October 3, 1789, exactly 74 years before Lincoln made it a regular national holiday.
According to an April 1, 1864, letter from John Nicolay, one of President Lincoln's secretaries, this document was actually written by the Secretary of State William Seward, and the original was in his handwriting. On October 3, 1863, fellow Cabinet member Gideon Welles recorded in his diary how he complimented Seward on his work. A year later the manuscript was sold to benefit Union troops. Here is that proclamation:
Washington, D.C. October 3, 1863
By the President of the United States of America.
A Proclamation.
The year that is drawing towards its close, has been filled with the blessings of fruitful fields and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the source from which they come, others have been added, which are of so extraordinary a nature, that they cannot fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever watchful providence of Almighty God. In the midst of a civil war of unequalled magnitude and severity, which has sometimes seemed to foreign States to invite and to provoke their aggression, peace has been preserved with all nations, order has been maintained, the laws have been respected and obeyed, and harmony has prevailed everywhere except in the theatre of military conflict; while that theatre has been greatly contracted by the advancing armies and navies of the Union. Needful diversions of wealth and of strength from the fields of peaceful industry to the national defence, have not arrested the plough, the shuttle or the ship; the axe has enlarged the borders of our settlements, and the mines, as well of iron and coal as of the precious metals, have yielded even more abundantly than heretofore. Population has steadily increased, notwithstanding the waste that has been made in the camp, the siege and the battle-field; and the country, rejoicing in the consciousness of augmented strength and vigor, is permitted to expect continuance of years with large increase of freedom. No human counsel hath devised nor hath any mortal hand worked out these great things. They are the gracious gifts of the Most High God, who, while dealing with us in anger for our sins, hath nevertheless remembered mercy. It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently and gratefully acknowledged as with one heart and one voice by the whole American People. I do therefore invite my fellow citizens in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next, as a day of Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens. And I recommend to them that while offering up the ascriptions justly due to Him for such singular deliverances and blessings, they do also, with humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience, commend to His tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged, and fervently implore the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore it as soon as may be consistent with the Divine purposes to the full enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquillity and Union.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this Third day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, and of the Independence of the United States the Eighty-eighth.
By the President: Abraham Lincoln
William H. Seward, Secretary of State
There is one thing that is totally clear in this proclamation, Thanksgiving presupposes a benevolent God who is deserving of all thanks. These leaders, encouraged by a very wise older woman, new that the greatest way to lift a nation or a person out of the pit of despair (which the country was indeed in) was to turn their attention to the God who is the giver of every good gift. The God, who though we sin against time and time again, provides new mercies every morning. In a time of deep despair, sorrow, and agony the Nation needed something that was bigger than the horrific situation they found themselves in, they needed God, and for one day the entire nation would turn to Him in Thanksgiving. Thus, this proclamation given over 156 years ago is still more relevant than ever. In the midst of our division and despair, our only hope is to look to the God above, repent of our wickedness, and seek to bless others with the blessings we have received.

Adult Toys I the the toys like this that have enough holding power also tend to suffer from they feel too "pinchy" from some of the reviews I read. I thought the issue was initially the shape of the inserted arm but think it a mostly an issue of force applied by the C shape. So likely the toy would need to be held in place while being used for anal play/sex; however, as I typically rub my partners clit while using toys during anal foreplay or during anal sex I could easily see this type of toy being held in place during anal sexThe Tiani 24K looks like it got a bit more holding power + a second vibrator in the inserted part of the toy; however, I a bit hesitant to spend 2X more than I spent on the Tiani 3 to tryBut keep an eye out as hope to try my Tiani 3 during anal sex before finishing my review of the toyI would think inserted normally, this would be great to use for anal sex to give clitoral and G spot vibes while doing anal.

The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.
A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally. B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species. C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead. D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world. E. More unusual vehicular accidents. F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.
A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally. B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species. C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead. D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world. E. More unusual vehicular accidents. F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

Here at Donnell Lincoln of Salem, we want you to be prepared for harsh winter driving conditions. Understeer and oversteer are two types of slides that can happen on ice, and if you start to slide or fishtail, then you're more than likely driving too fast for the road conditions. Here are some ways that you can correct a slide.
The high point of a Bill Kirchen show is the tour of guitar-hero riffs he takes the crowd on in the middle of "Hot Rod Lincoln," a rock 'n' roll rave-up that Kirchen recorded in 1972 as a member of Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen. Riffs from The Beatles, The Ventures, Merle Haggard, Albert Collins, Link Wray, The Sex Pistols, and Jimi Hendrix all come tumbling out of his tweed amp as jaws land in laps and eyes are popping out of heads and rolling around on the floor.…
Speaking of fellow gym members, I was lying on my mat and going through some tortuous ab repetitions this week and overheard two older gentleman having a thoughtful conversation about William Faulkner. He’s one of the authors who English majors (me) had to read and most of us disliked his writing. Too convoluted, labyrinthine, and obscure for me. Yet they were tackling the subject - two men in their eighties! One one had recently taken a course on Faulkner and the other remembered reading the Portable Faulkner. I was enchanted with the idea of working out in a gym and hearing such sublime subject matter. Most gyms have loud music (there’s music here but not deafening), loud people, and lots of slang, swearing, and grunting. But a deep conversation about an American author considered an icon to English professors. No, you won’t be hearing that too often - Back to the physical space at the Fitness Center. It’s clean, the equipment is newer, there’s plenty of space for everyone, and the cost can’t be beat. I missed using a particular smaller gizmo that I liked at my old gym - I requested it at the Winnetka Fitness Center - and voila, it appeared a week later. Talk about customer service! 
Separately, Pelaton bikes are available and there are many fitness classes to choose from. There’s also one of those trolley-like things that holds a lot of weight that you can push and pull up and down a long hallway. If you’re into swimming or yoga, you’ll have to go elsewhere. But for a good and solid workout in 
the heart of Winnetka, the Winnetka Fitness Center can’t be beat. And trust me, the older folks will continue to have their own conversations, but there are plenty of young people - even college and high school aged, who frequent the Fitness Center.

(Dial Books, 2019), Jack's dream school has something for everyone, from critter-crazy kids to gismo geeks. Van Dusen's bouncy rhyming quatrains make this one a breeze to read, aloud or solo, and Van Dusen's brand of Seussian illustrations give Mulberry Street a run for the money in this new top-selling hit. Younger kids will laugh at the preposterous silliness, and older students will find the story line a great springboard for imaginative writers and young inventors, one that will fire up some creativity among the primary grade set.
