Nebraska Right to Life 1 NEBRASKA RIGHT TO LIFE LINCOLN AROUND THE NEBRASKA STATE The 44th an- nual Nebraska Walk for Life, sponsored WALK FOR LIFE by Nebraska Right to Life, was held Saturday, January 27th at the State Capitol and UN-L Student Union in Lincoln. 5,000 pro-lif- ers from around the State took part in the brief program at the Capitol and then marched down 14th Street to the Student Union. There, key- note speaker Ann McElhinney talked about her movie and book about abortion- ist Kermit Gosnell, who is serving a life sentence in prison for manslaughter of a patient and for the infanticide of unborn babies within his filthy Philadelphia, PA, clinic. We hope you will help us get “Gosnell” the movie in theaters across Nebraska upon its release! Kicking off the Capitol program were Governor Pete Ricketts, Lt. Governor Mike Foley, U.S. Senators Deb Fischer and Ben Sasse, Congressman Jeff Fortenberry, State Senator Dan Watermeier and a number of other State Senators and elected officials who were introduced. 2 Nebraska Right to Life SAVE THE DATE Sunday, March 18, 2018 Monday, March 19, 2018 Hastings, Nebraska Columbus, Nebraska Tuesday, March 20, 2018 Lincoln, Nebraska Is Physician-Assisted Suicide Coming to Nebraska?

In Nebraska, Planned Parenthood of the Heartland is the leading Title X grant recipient receiving nearly $300,000 per year. Under the pro-life language in LB 944, to be compliant: A. An organization can physically, legally and financially separate its abortion-related activities from its Title X ser- vices and still be eligible for Title X funds. Or, B: An organization can completely stop its abortion-related activities and remain as a clinic providing Title X services for women and men. How will this affect clinics that don’t aid in or refer for abortion? It won’t! Clinics and health centers not assisting in any way with abortion will remain fully eligible for Title X funds under the new provision. Will this cause women and men to lose health care services they need? The only reason anyone would lose access to Title X services under this provision would be if clinics involved in abortion-related activities refuse to follow the guidelines of the Title X funding program.

Luebke When Europeans visit the Great Plains region of the United States, they are impressed by the newness of the place. Coming from communities that often are filled with physical evidence of great age, they are re­ minded that here virtually none of the visible marks of Euroamerican culture are more than a mere century old. Before 1854, the year in which Nebraska was leg­ islated into existence, permanent residence in this place was technically illegal. Except for the never­ numerous Indians, a few fur trappers and traders, and some soldiers and their camp followers clustered around Fort Kearny, Nebraska had no population.

  • 1 from Mesopotamia to the Nebraska State Capitol
    From Mesopotamia to the Nebraska State Capitol: Assyrian Revival and New American Meanings Eva Miller From Mesopotamia to the Nebraska State Capitol: Assyrian Revival and New American Meanings Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue’s influential ‘prairie skyscraper’ design for the Nebraska State Capitol, inaugurated in 1928, has long defied stylistic categorisation. A now greatly overlooked element of its unclassifiable style was noted in numerous assessments at the time which identified ‘Oriental’ ‘Assyrian’ or ‘Assyrian-Babylonian’ features which, despite (or because of) their associations with a deep antiquity, contributed to the new, distinctly American architecture of the building, and of its sculptural programme by Lee Lawrie. This article considers the Assyrianising tendencies of the Capitol in the context of Art Deco interest in ‘revival’ of ancient styles, and American civic architecture’s engagement with the ancient Middle Eastern past as an origin of civilization. Goodhue’s close collaboration with Lawrie, muralist Hildreth Meière, and ‘symbologist’ Hartley Burr Alexander exemplified the productive and creative application of revived ancient iconography, which was employed in Nebraska in the service of various historical narratives and as a reflection of the designers’ aesthetic appreciation for Assyrian sculptures. Finally this article also investigates how the Capitol’s treatment of the ancient Mesopotamian ‘lawgiver’ Hammurabi influenced ‘Hammurabis’ in subsequent sculptural contexts, including in the State Capitol of Louisiana, American federal government buildings, and the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago.1 In 1929, the year after architect Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue’s new State Capitol at Lincoln, Nebraska (fig. 1) opened to the public, the Nebraska-based journal The Prairie Schooner published a seven-page poem by a certain Rosemonde E.

    How Dinosaurs Came To The Nebraska State Capitol by Neale Monks Palaeontologist, British Museum Copyrighted by Neale Monks All images courtesy Office of the Capitol Commission and University of Nebraska The Vision of Bertram Goodhue As impressive as the Nebraska State Capitol is from the outside, on the inside it reveals a level of subtlety and sophistication in its decoration that many architects and art historians consider it one of the finest public buildings in America. Virtually every surface and fixture has some connection with law, government, or history. Nowhere is this more dramatic than with the mosaics on the second floor that form a pageant of scenes from the past. Copyrighted by Neale Monks All images courtesy Office of the Capitol Commission and University of Nebraska A Visual History of Nebraska The mosaic floors of the Foyer and Rotunda retell the history of Nebraska from several perspectives, the cosmic, the natural, and the human. Their symbolism derives from the work of the head of the Department of Philosophy at the University of Nebraska, Hartley Burr Alexander. At the urging of the Capitol Commission, Goodhue met with Alexander to seek advice on formulating the overall thematic programme for the new Capitol design. At the entrance of the Foyer is a panel containing an image of a cosmic deity forging the matter and energy that from which all things are made. Further into the Foyer are three circular panels, known as tondi (pronounced “ton-dye”), containing more allegorical figures that represent the earth, plants, and animals upon which human society depends.

Upon completion of the Nebraska State Capitol, in their final report to the Nebraska State Legislature on January 1, Galen Hadley Speaker of the Legislature 1935, the Nebraska Capitol Commission stated, Vice-Chairman “ It is difficult for Nebraska to realize what it has done, but the people of your nation know, and they look to you for careful preservation of what has become Michael Heavican a jewel among Historic Monuments.” Chief Justice Supreme Court Vice-Chairman Nebraska achieved and preserves its monumental Capitol through the hard work and dedication of architects. Frank Lloyd Wright, perhaps the Kim Wilson best known architect in America, described architecture as the mother art, Dean “Without architecture of our own we have no soul of our own civilization.” College of Architecture, UNL The Nebraska State Capitol provides an architectural soul for Nebraska. Nebraska’s first two state capitols were designed by Chicago architects Michael Smith following the standards of the time: columns, pediments, domes. They were Executive Director & CEO designed to be reminiscent of the nation’s Capitol. It was leading Omaha Nebraska State Historical Society architect, Thomas R.
