  • M.'S Story Jay and Tava Musial, Who Were Living in Michigan at the Time
    M.’s Story Jay and Tava Musial, who were living in Michigan at the time, had planned a family trip for Memorial Day weekend, but not before stopping by their daughter’s pediatrician’s office. Tava had noticed her daughter M. Rhapsody frequently had to go to the bathroom. Assuming she had a urinary tract infection, they hoped to get antibiotics and be on their way. M.’s lab work revealed no signs of bacteria but indicated her blood sugar was extremely high. Five days after her eighth birthday, M. was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. The Musials’ weekend getaway quickly rerouted to St. John’s Hospital in Detroit where M. spent a full week learning how to manage diabetes. Shortly after M’s diagnosis, the Musial family relocated to Sheppard Air Force Base in Wichita Falls, Texas. Relocating also meant finding a new endocrinologist for M. It was at that first appointment that Dr. John Caras recommended Diabetes Education at United Regional. Diabetes is a disease that affects the whole family, especially when a child is diagnosed. Diabetes Education also provides a support group for kids and their families. “M. comes to every appointment with a smile on her face and has never let her diabetes hold her back on anything,” said Nicole Benz, Diabetes Nurse Educator at United Regional. Children’s Miracle Network at United Regional provides scholarships for kids with Type 1 Diabetes to go to Camp Sweeney. This three-week camp’s goal is that every child who attends camp will not only learn about his or her condition but will find the inner strength each day to do what it takes to live a healthy lifestyle.

  • “Bo Diddley” and “I'm a Man” (1955)
    “Bo Diddley” and “I’m a Man” (1955) Added to the National Registry: 2011 Essay by Ed Komara (guest post)* Bo Diddley While waiting in Bo Diddley’s house to conduct an interview for the February 12, 1987 issue of “Rolling Stone,” journalist Kurt Loder noticed a poster. “If You Think Rock and Roll Started With Elvis,” it proclaimed, “You Don’t Know Diddley.” This statement seems exaggerated, but upon listening to Diddley’s April 1955 debut 78 on Checker 814, “Bo Diddley” backed with “I’m A Man,” it becomes apt, perhaps even understated. Bo Diddley (1928-2008) described his own place in music history to Loder. “People wouldn’t even bother with no stuff like ‘Bo Diddley’ and ‘I’m A Man’ and stuff like that ten years earlier [circa 1945] or even a year earlier [1954]. Then Leonard and Phil Chess decided to take a chance, and suddenly a whole different scene, a different kind of music, came in. And that was the beginning of rock and roll.” The composer credit for Checker 814 reads “E. McDaniels,” and there begins the tale. Bo Diddley was born Ellas Otha Bates in McComb, Mississippi on December 30, 1928 to a teenage mother and her local boyfriend. He was raised, however, by his maternal first cousin, Gussie McDaniel, to whom he was taken to Chicago, and given her surname McDaniel. He grew up on the South Side of the city, where he learned violin, trombone and, at age 12, the guitar. Before long, he was playing for change on the local streets.

General Information The Latin script1 or Roman script is a major writing system of the world today, and the most widely used in terms of number of languages and number of speakers, with circa 70% of the world’s readers and writers making use of this script2 (Wikipedia). Historically, it is derived from the Greek alphabet, as is the Cyrillic script. The Greek alphabet is in turn derived from the Phoenician alphabet which dates to the mid-11th century BC and is itself based on older scripts. This explains why Latin, Cyrillic and Greek share some letters, which may become relevant to the ruleset in the form of cross-script variants. The Latin alphabet itself originated in Italy in the 7th Century BC. The original alphabet contained 21 upper case only letters: A, B, C, D, E, F, Z, H, I, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, V and X.
