  • Prayer - a Sacred Conversation "Consult Not Your Fears, but Your Hopes and Your Dreams
    Established 1967 www.lucannewsletter.ie Subscription 80c Sunday 16th May 2021 Prayer - A Sacred Conversation "Consult not your fears, but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential. Concern not yourself with what you tried and failed in, but what it is still possible to do. Now is the time to put aside past and present setbacks and failures and look with confidence to the new day called tomorrow. "Pope John XXIII". A personal relationship, with God is indeed a sacred gift that brings rich blessings. I love the following reflection on prayer. "Spiritual poverty clings to nothing and nothing clings to it." Lord, forgive us that we are so busy when we come into your presence. We have to tell you all our needs in case you might forget some of them. We make many resolutions in case you don't think well of us. We are anxious to get some teaching from you that will keep us faithful to your will. We thank you for the times when you invited us just to be quiet and remain in your love, your permanent unconditional love, the kind you had from your Father. "Prayer is not meant to change the world. It is meant to change us so that we will then change the world." Lord, we have made the commandments into cold, objective obligations, and many of them, at that. We thank you that they are gestures of love; The tender embrace between husband and wife before leaving for work. The words of wisdom that a great leader speaks to his intimate followers on his deathbed.

  • Kinship, Environment and the Forest Service: Homesteading in Oregon's Coast Range
    Redacted for privacy Redacted for privacy Redacted for privacy Redacted for privacy Redacted for privacy Redacted for privacy Redacted for privacy ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In May of 1992 Billee Hoornbeek, then the Siuslaw National Forest Archaeologist, approached me with the idea of doing my master's thesis on the Siuslaw's homesteads. Billee was about to retire, and recognizing the information potential of the 34 boxes of homestead records on loan from the Federal Records Center, she was looking for someone to illuminate the information in those valuable documents. When she first showed me the 34 boxes of case files, I was overwhelmed and a little bewildered about what research possibilities those boxes contained. Billee then rattled off numerous research topics that she felt the homestead records could address, and so I told her I would think about it. Well, obviously I said yes, and I am so grateful to Billee for introducing me to homestead research that has developed into a favorite subject area for me. Many other people lent their assistance on this thesis and I would like to thank them. Ken McCall, Alsea Ranger District Cultural Resource Technician, was familiar with the study area and the concentration of homesteads it contained and recommended it for my research. He also referred me to Evelyn Payne Parry, a local historian who had lived in the area. Ken also organized the three Passport in Time volunteer projects that I used for field research on the homesteads. Whenever I was looking for information on the homesteads, or needing another copy of a homestead record, Ken was always willing to help fmd it.

  • 1966 Record Releases
    1966 UK Record Releases by Date This is a list of all UK 45 singles and EP’s found on the 45 cat website and any new release sheets as of the 15/03/2016. Generally records that don't have a full release are not included. Some spoken word only records are not listed, plus “story” ones. Records that would have had a specific week when they were fist released, but which dates have not been found, but are known to have been issued on an actual month are included at the end of each weekly listing for the month in question. Numbers in red indicate ownership on 45 cat for those with 5 or more. In some cases, such as chart hits, the number of “wants” is added on. Caution should be noted with ownership figure, as the record might have only been available as a promo record that wasn’t issued to the public. These however will be popular with collectors of records. If it is known to be never issued to the public, what is called on the 45 Cat site as a “stock” record. Then that will not be included. In some cases records by well known acts were never issued as “stock” and some of these have been included, but such records are shown as “promo only”. They are included to show that the record couldn’t have made the charts in 1966. At least as a UK issue! Records that made the charts of the time are only stated where no specific week has been found or if a chart record fails to score 5 ownership indications - indicated by the term hit.
