While some see these plants as a nuisance, they are from the same family as sunflowers and offer many potential benefits. Every part of the plant has a use, whether it is making tea from the roots, crafting salads from its greens or making syrup and garnishes out of the flowers. “‘Weeds’ are only ‘weeds’ because they’re plants that are in the wrong place,” said Susannah Howard, Citizen Potawatomi Nation tribal member and graduate student at the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry. “There’s a lot to be said for plants that come up in places we don’t necessarily want them, but they’re definitely still usable.” Research indicates not all dandelion varieties are native to every part of North America, but the plants now thrive across the continent. While some employ eradication measures, Thinking outside-the-box for plants that some attempt to eradicate could provide key solutions to food accessibility. for many centuries, people sought them out as a source of food and “We need the plants that are resilient, and want to forage elsewhere, make sure you around you who have these foraging medicine.

  • Lenten Devotional
    Gleaning America’s Fields Feeding America’s Hungry Daily Lenten Devotions scripture readings • reflections • prayers Walk Humbly is a time of self-examination, evaluation, and sometimes drastic personal changes. HowLent quickly the joy of Jesus’ entry to Jerusalem on Palm Sunday turns to the horror of his arrest, the mourning of his crucifixion, and the joy of seeing Jesus alive, Easter Day! What a mix of emotions the followers of Jesus must have experienced. What uncertainty! Consider others as they are in the midst of their own drastic changes. Some have lost jobs while others have lost their homes. Finances have been depleted, but their children are still hungry. Where are they to turn? As we step into Lent in 2021, chastened by nearly a year of living with and through the Coronavirus pandemic, the theme of this year’s Lenten devotions may seem a bit strange—Walk Humbly. It comes from the book of the Old Testament prophet Micah, “What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?” (Micah 6:8) What does “walking humbly with God” mean in these days? Perhaps it is just treading lightly on the earth, realizing that our time here is short and we are all more fragile than we previously real- ized. Over the next 47 days, as you read these devotions, you’ll share in the reflections and prayers of a diverse group of writers and thinkers, all contemplating Micah 6:8 from within the time of the pandemic. Over the last year, hunger needs in the U.S.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

Some of these sites pertain to the lives of Oklahoma’s original settlers—the Wichita and Caddo, and perhaps such relative latecomers as the Kiowa Apache, Osage, Kiowa, and Comanche.

  • Chapter III the FOUR VINCENTIAN VOWS: YESTERDAY and TODAY
    Chapter III THE FOUR VINCENTIAN VOWS: YESTERDAY AND TODAY Those who become detached from the desire for worldly goods, from the longing for pleasure, and from their own will become children of God. They enjoy perfect freedom. For it is only in the love of God that real freedom is found. They are people who are free, who know no law, who fly, who go left and right, who fly still more. No one can hold them back They are never slaves of the devil nor of their own passions. Oh, how happy is the freedom of the children of God! SV XII, 301 Since the publication of the previous chapter in an earlier form,' many people have encouraged me to attempt something similar in regard to the four Vincen- tian vows.' I am grateful for their stimulating me to engage in the research and reflection whose fruits I offer below. As with all such projects, I have been helped enormously by the research of others,' particularly in the first part of the chapter. But I have also attempted to examine the writings of St. Vincent anew. I. "Five Characteristic Virtues: Yesterday and Today," Vincentiuiw 29 (1985) 226-254. 2. Many have encouraged me by their use of my article on the five virtues in retreats and formation programs and by their translating it into various languages. But I am especially grateful to J.-O. Baylach, former editor of Vincentiana, who was the first to suggest the idea of another article focusing on the vows. I hope that what I have written here addresses the topic at least somewhat adequately.
