MSHP officers found Meidell’s body and his overturned boat Monday morning on Bryant Creek about a half-mile north of Cook’s Landing, a Missouri Department forward of Conservation river access, according to an online MSHP drowning incident report. 2 a.m. The MSHP report says the accident occurred when the 2018 Lowe utility boat “side impacted” a debris pile in the stream, capsizing, and entrapping Meidell in the Sunday, debris pile, causing him to drown. The accident was investigated by MSHP Cpl. J. R. Roberts assisted by MSgt. B. D. Foster, Cpl. L. B. Monahan and Trooper C. P. March 10 Chatman. It was MSHP Troop G’s first drowning fatality of 2019. This week’s sheriff’s dispatch log (see page 12) shows that a call came in at 5:23 p.m. Saturday, March 2, saying Meidell hadn’t been heard from since Thursday, Voter when he had launched his boat onto Norfork Lake at Udall. (The Times was unable to confirm the date of Meidell’s departure to go fishing. Although the person who registration called the sheriff’s office on Saturday said he’d left on Thursday, members of the search team say a friend told them he’d had coffee with Meidell Friday morning, and deadline is Meidell had said he was going fishing later that day.) The sheriff’s dispatcher noted in the log that, at 8 p.m. Saturday, an attempt was today made to ping Meidell’s cell phone, but there was no response because it had been out of service too long.

Page 2 • OZARK COUNTY TIMES • Wednesday, March 6, 2019 Fourth and fifth elk poaching cases since 2011 MDC seeks information in elk poaching cases The Missouri Department of Conservation continues to seek information in the case of two adult elk shot Friday, Feb. 8, near the Log Yard area of Shannon County. One of the elk was a 10-year-old bull that was brought to Missouri from Kentucky in 2011. The other was an adult cow that was born in Missouri. Conservation agents note that no parts of either animal were removed. As is the case with most poaching incidents today, says MDC, these actions had nothing to do with providing meat for a family. “It appears these poachers simply wanted to shoot elk for fun or out of spite, and that’s abhorrent,” said MDC’s Protection Division chief Randy Doman. Doman said this marks the fifth known elk poaching incident since the elk population was restored in 2011. Elk poachings in the state also include an adult bull in December 2015, a two-month-old calf in August 2018 and a bull calf this past January. In the 2015 case, the poachers removed the bull’s antlers with a chainsaw and left it otherwise untouched in the woods where it fell. Doman said it’s important to note that poaching is not hunting, and poachers are not hunters. “These poaching incidents are ethically wrong and represent unacceptable moral con- duct,” he said. “We know Missourians care about conservation, wildlife and the laws that protect their wildlife resources. These actions don’t represent the values of Missourians and hunters here.” When elk restoration began in Missouri in 2011, one of the projected benefits was an increase in tourism to the Missouri Ozarks. Visitor surveys conducted at the two self- guided driving elk tours at Peck Ranch and Current River conservation areas determined the elk brought nearly $1.3 million in increased economic activity to the region in 2016. This data included regional economic impacts such as food, lodging and transport expenses of more than 11,000 visitors that toured these areas in 2016. “The restoration of elk is appreciated by many people, businesses and organizations in the area,” Doman said. “The citizens here take great pride in their hunting traditions and their wildlife resources. A healthy, growing elk population brings significant economic and cultural benefits to these communities, and the senseless waste of the people’s resources should not be tolerated.” MDC photo MDC announced in 2018 that plans for a limited elk hunting season may soon be forth- This is the carcass of a 10-year-old bull elk that was shot and left near the Log Yard coming. However, poaching cases may impact both elk tourism and the timing of an elk area of Shannon County. An adult cow elk was also shot and left in the area, hunting season. according to MDC.

  • Reed Boats and Experimental Archaeology on Lake Titicaca
    Paul Harmon tests the capabilities of the local totora reed boats. In the past few decades, hollow-hulled wooden boats of European design have largely replaced totora reed boats among the Aymara and Uru-Chipaya peoples of the region. Reed Boats and Experimental Archaeology on lake titicaca by alexei vranich, s much as archaeologists grumble about the scientific merit of Thor Heyerdahl’s paul harmon, and Kon Tiki journey from Peru to Polynesia, one thing is certain: he started a trend. On chris knutson the positive side, archaeologists began experimenting with a variety of ancient n o m technologies as a means to understand r a H l the past. On the negative side, a generation of adventurers u a P d A n decided that the best way to prove their ideas was to build a a h c i raft and set it adrift. Since the famous Kon Tiki, at least 40 sim- n a r V i ilar expeditions have generated adventure by inventing more e x e l and more improbable ways to get from one place to another. A 20 volume 47, number 2 expedition Boats made of everything from popsicle sticks to wine corks have been spotted all over the world, including a reed boat seen recently cruising down the Amazon River en route to Africa using powerful outboard motors! As we spent three months assembling nearly two million totora reeds into a giant bundle 13,000 feet above sea level on the edge of Lake Titicaca in South America, we wondered in which group we belonged, the archaeologists or the adventurers? TIWANAKU AND ITS MONOLITHS Around AD 500, one of the small villages along the shores of Lake Titicaca grew into the largest city that had ever existed in the Andes.

  • Uros Hand Made Reed Floating Islands
    Uros hand made reed floating islands A proved ancient technique Today a closed cycle in practice to learn from Tomorrow an innovative development Rocío Torres Méndez Because of global warming, rising sea levels and the running out of fossil fuels, it is important to look for sustainable adaptable solutions. Therefore special attention should be given to the potential of floating reeds in construction. This paper is about a closed cycle example in practice, to learn from. It tells the history of a millenary South American civilization named Uros. It gives an overview of sustainable daily practices of the Uros - who live on floating organic hand made islands on the cold waters of Lake Titicaca at 3810 m above sea level in Puno, Peru - and their potential for future innovative developments. The objective of this paper is to highlight the importance of researching the Totora plant’s floating properties, which will give us insights into its possible diverse applications as a floating material of construction. This study bridges science with traditional knowledge, an inspiring lesson for developing innovative ideas. 1 Location: Puno- Peru Figure 1 : Islands located at five kilometers east from Puno port at 3810m above sea level Source: Google earth The Totora plant This paper is about the Totora plant that grows in Titicaca Lake. Its scientific name is Schoenoplectus californicus ssp. tatora. Totora is an aquatic plant which grows in humid places, wetlands, along rivers and lakes. This plant has a long stem (400 cm long approximately) and its stem section has a circular shape (d =1.5 cm aprox).

    FLAG REPORT 1 ATLANTIC OCEAN EXPEDITION Crossing the Ocean on a Reed Sailing Boat In July 2007, Sabrina Lorenz set sail across the Atlantic with ten others and Wings WorldQuest Flag #3 to prove that intercontinental trade was possible in prehistoric times. Expedition leader Dominique Görlitz invited Sabrina, an experienced scientific scuba diver, and Andrea Müller to be the two women to sail aboard the Abora III, a reed boat similar to those used in predynastic Egypt. Long before Columbus or the Vikings voyaged to the New World, growing evidence indicates that people regularly crossed the Atlantic. Cave drawings from the Magdalene Old Stone Age cultures in France and Spain attest to advanced nautical knowledge.

Chapter One defines the. context physically and. to some extent culturally. It begins with a discussion of the boats used by the fishermen, which suggests that in this respect at least Suakin is culturally more akin to the Middle East, or "dhow world", than to the interior of Sudan. The environment in which these boats operate and the appearance of the town is then described. This appearance and the presence of the current population is accounted for in Chapter Two, which relates the history of the town and its people. In Chapter Three, the concept of "ethnic grouping" is developed from earlier concepts in order to classify the present population. The concept is applied in Chapter Four, where there is also an examination of the activities, organisation and sizes of these groupings. Chapters Five and Six give a detailed account of the fishing industry in Suakin, including an assessment of a development project aimed at improving productivity and an elucidation of two "universal" methods of profit distribution by share allocation.
