  • A History of the Rise of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Wisconsin
    A History of the Rise of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Wisconsin Written and Compiled by: Hal Pierce Anyone with historical information about the rise of the Church is invited to share that information by sending it to this website and it will be added. Thanks. 1 Sources Sources include, “Polygamy on the Pedernales” by Melvin C. Johnson, Utah State University Press 2006; and “Minnesota Mormons” by Fayone B. Willes, 1990; “The Quest for Mormons in the Lead Mines of Wisconsin” and “Potosi Branch History” by Daniel M. Kelty, and “Wikipedea.” EARLY WISCONSIN CHURCH HISTORY Wisconsin Territory was created during 1836 and became a State of the Union on 29 May 1848. The seemingly inexhaustible supply of pine trees of Wisconsin and their easy access by the Black and Mississippi rivers became a wonderful source of wood for building the Nauvoo Illinois houses, business enterprises and Church buildings, including the temple, after the Saints settled there in the spring of 1839. Also, skilled lumbermen had joined the Church and their talents could be put to good use. During June and July 1841 William Oglesby Clark laid groundwork for the first Branches of the Church in Western Wisconsin. William was born 25 June 1817 in Madison, Indiana and joined the Church on 12 April 1835. His mission involved finding and mining Lead in extreme southwestern Wisconsin. He worked in the area of Potosi. At the beginning of his Mission in Wisconsin he visited the home of Church members Isaac Zanes and Alvira Gilmore Whitaker. There were several members of the Strong family in the area that had joined the Church and most were likely related to Moses Strong who had migrated from Vermont.

  • Chapter: 4. Approaches
    Chapter 4 Approaches Introduction This chapter discusses general planning and conduct of instrument approaches by pilots operating under Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Parts 91,121, 125, and 135. The operations specifications (OpSpecs), standard operating procedures (SOPs), and any other FAA- approved documents for each commercial operator are the final authorities for individual authorizations and limitations as they relate to instrument approaches. While coverage of the various authorizations and approach limitations for all operators is beyond the scope of this chapter, an attempt is made to give examples from generic manuals where it is appropriate. 4-1 Approach Planning within the framework of each specific air carrier’s OpSpecs, or Part 91. Depending on speed of the aircraft, availability of weather information, and the complexity of the approach procedure Weather Considerations or special terrain avoidance procedures for the airport of intended landing, the in-flight planning phase of an Weather conditions at the field of intended landing dictate instrument approach can begin as far as 100-200 NM from whether flight crews need to plan for an instrument the destination. Some of the approach planning should approach and, in many cases, determine which approaches be accomplished during preflight. In general, there are can be used, or if an approach can even be attempted. The five steps that most operators incorporate into their flight gathering of weather information should be one of the first standards manuals for the in-flight planning phase of an steps taken during the approach-planning phase.

  • The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Not All Killed by John Wayne: The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk 1940s to the Present A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in American Indian Studies by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 © Copyright by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 ABSTRACT OF THESIS Not All Killed by John Wayne: Indigenous Rock ‘n’ Roll, Metal, and Punk History 1940s to the Present by Kristen Le Amber Martinez Master of Arts in American Indian Studies University of California Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Maylei Blackwell, Chair In looking at the contribution of Indigenous punk and hard rock bands, there has been a long history of punk that started in Northern Arizona, as well as a current diverse scene in the Southwest ranging from punk, ska, metal, doom, sludge, blues, and black metal. Diné, Apache, Hopi, Pueblo, Gila, Yaqui, and O’odham bands are currently creating vast punk and metal music scenes. In this thesis, I argue that Native punk is not just a cultural movement, but a form of survivance. Bands utilize punk and their stories as a conduit to counteract issues of victimhood as well as challenge imposed mechanisms of settler colonialism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, notions of being fixed in the past, as well as bringing awareness to genocide and missing and murdered Indigenous women. Through D.I.Y. and space making, bands are writing music which ii resonates with them, and are utilizing their own venues, promotions, zines, unique fashion, and lyrics to tell their stories.

  • GAMES – for JUNIOR OR SENIOR HIGH YOUTH GROUPS Active
    GAMES – FOR JUNIOR OR SENIOR HIGH YOUTH GROUPS Active Games Alka-Seltzer Fizz: Divide into two teams. Have one volunteer on each team lie on his/her back with a Dixie cup in their mouth (bottom part in the mouth so that the opening is facing up). Inside the cup are two alka-seltzers. Have each team stand ten feet away from person on the ground with pitchers of water next to the front. On “go,” each team sends one member at a time with a mouthful of water to the feet of the person lying on the ground. They then spit the water out of their mouths, aiming for the cup. Once they’ve spit all the water they have in their mouth, they run to the end of the line where the next person does the same. The first team to get the alka-seltzer to fizz wins. Ankle Balloon Pop: Give everyone a balloon and a piece of string or yarn. Have them blow up the balloon and tie it to their ankle. Then announce that they are to try to stomp out other people's balloons while keeping their own safe. Last person with a blown up balloon wins. Ask The Sage: A good game for younger teens. Ask several volunteers to agree to be "Wise Sages" for the evening. Ask them to dress up (optional) and wait in several different rooms in your facility. The farther apart the Sages are the better. Next, prepare a sheet for each youth that has questions that only a "Sage" would be able to answer.
