(Continued on Page 14) T HE S PIRIT P A G E 2 Grand Knight’s Message Brother Knights, Merry Christmas! It’s a little early for me to be using that greeting, as it’s only the beginning of December. But, we’re already in Advent, which means Christmas is near. As evident by this newsletter not being ready by the 1st of the month, I’ve been getting busy and time just keeps slipping away. I’m sure many of you will experience this same feeling as we all prepare for the coming holiday. As I write this, there are only three weeks left to do my Christmas shopping. I always dread going shopping for Christmas gifts, mainly because doing so has the reverse effect on me. Instead of feeling good about giving to others, I feel discouraged by the constant drumming commercialism. The emphasis seems to be on buying ra- ther than giving. COVID may mitigate this a little this year, but I’m sure traffic, crowds, and just the running around to find that ‘perfect’ gift is sure to wear me down. Other holiday preparations also seem to add to the lack of Christmas spirit for me. Got to put up the Christmas tree, put up the lights on the house (always more help putting up than taking down), sending Christmas cards to relatives and close friends (fewer each year), all mixed with the push at work to get things done before the end of the year, or before a few days off at the end of the year. Life was much simpler when I was a kid. There was the long awaited month-long Christmas break from school, followed by growing anticipation for the big night. The only cares I had was whether Santa heard my request for that toy. That’s it. I didn’t have to buy gifts for others, so I didn’t know the joys of fighting the mall crowds, heavy traffic, and where I grew up, snow squalls that seem to make traffic even that much more enjoyable. No, I just counted the days waiting to reap the fruits of my ‘goodness’ from the past year. Santa knows I’ve been good, right? How could he not put that coveted gift under the tree on Christmas eve? Then, Christmas Day! We most often started by signing ‘Happy Birthday’ to Jesus and enjoying a slice of birth- day cake. Then on to the living room. Wow! There seemed to be an endless array of gifts under the tree (although I probably only got three or four small packages — clothes didn’t count. The next week or so was spent enjoying the gifts I received, most of which lasted past New Year’s Day. Fast-forward 50-plus years. Back to reality. No more childlike anticipation. No more month long vacation. No more carefree enjoyment. I miss those days. Sounds like I need to re-focus my energy to the coming of Christ Jesus. That’s the best gift I could imagine. Every other gift pales in comparison. How could I not be overjoyed this time of year? Maybe all the things I mentioned would be more enjoyable, would have more meaning, if I were to keep the rea- son for the season in mind as I went through the motions of Christmas shopping, decorating, working, and just living. How could keeping the coming of our Saviour in mind not lead to a joyous Christmas season? I know, I’m human, destined to settle into the same old routines. I guess going through life is like navigating a cruise ship. It just wants to move in a straight line, and it takes a Herculean effort to change course. I guess that’s why man came up with the notion of making New Year’s resolutions. I always had trouble keeping my New Year’s resolutions, until I finally made one I could keep: No more New Year’s resolutions! Well, COVID will make this Christmas unlike any we’ve experienced before. Things won’t be the same this year as last. That could be a good thing in some ways. We may be forced to spend time with our families (in small groups, of course). We will probably stay at home and relax. Whatever this Christmas season holds for you, I hope that you find the peace of that silent night so long ago. I hope you enjoy this Christmas with your family, friends, or whomever you spend your holiday with. Nobody knows what 2021 will hold for us. Only hour Heavenly Father. My guess is next year will be better in many ways that this year. I look forward to a return to ‘normal’ and seeing many of you at our typical Council events. If I do not see you (likely, given COVID restrictions), I wish you all the best for Christmas and the New Year! Feliz Navidad! Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to people of good will!

    April 21, 2020 Dear Parents/Guardians and Community Members, I hope that you, your families, and your loved ones are doing well, staying healthy, and that remote learning continues to be workable for you and your child. It has been so exciting to see updates of scholar’s watching their videos, engaging with new texts through EPIC!, and diligently working in their packet. We are so thankful for our strong partnerships with families that ensure our scholars’ learning is as rigorous and joyful at home as it is in our school buildings. With our Chicago and Cincinnati schools currently closed through the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year, enclosed you will find the next three weeks of Elementary School remote learning packets for instruction starting on Monday, April 27th and running through Friday, May 15th. You will notice that this round of packets contains blue stars after certain questions. If your student normally receives modified work according to their individualized education plans, he or she should do only the problems with a blue star next to them. If not, students should complete all questions. If you have any questions, please reach out to your child’s teacher for clarification. Additionally, you will notice supplemental resources at the end of the packet. These materials should serve as a support to all students as they complete their remote learning work. Please reach out directly to your school leaders with any questions, and thank you for continuing to take care of yourself and each other. I am looking forward to seeing all that your scholars continue to achieve during remote learning! My best, Stacey Shells Harvey ReGeneration Schools CEO 21 de abril de 2020 Estimados padres / tutores y miembros de la comunidad, Espero que usted, sus familias y sus seres queridos estén bien, se mantengan saludables y que el aprendizaje remoto continúe siendo viable para usted y su hijo.

Tsetse control as an element of resource management. An overview of the expertise and experience of the Natural Resources Institute. (Abstract only.) In: OAU/STRC, 1993 (see 17: no. 8321), pp. 221-222. NRI, Central Avenue, Chatham Maritime, Chatham, Kent ME4 4TB, UK. NRI's involvement with the technological, developmental, socioeconomic and environmental impact of tsetse control and resource management is summarised. Aerial spraying is capable of clearing tsetse from large areas in under 100 days if accurately applied. NRI can calibrate the aircraft to produce the correct application rate and drop size, monitor distribution in the spray block and advise on operational procedure. Odour-baited targets and traps are used to control and monitor fly populations. NRI chemists have analysed natural host odours and have used an electroantennograph to identify compounds that are attractive to tsetse. Various compounds can now be dispensed from plastic sachets at controlled rates. The toxicology of both new and established insecticides has been assessed in the laboratory and field, using a range of techniques including a wind tunnel and a method of applying extremely small drops of known size to simulate aerial spraying. The environmental impact of control operations based on aerial and ground spraying has been studied in both the short and longer term.

Centre de Recherche ell Sciences Natllrelles ABSTRACf Ethnobotanica1 inquiries were made in Zaire to collect plants traditionally used for treatment of envenomations. As a result, a checklist of 109 antivenomous plants is presented with their scientific and vernacular names, the locality and the directions for use for each plant. The Zairean antivenomous plants are grouped in three categories: the repulsive, the protective and the curative plants. The part used depends on the structure of the plant. For trees and shrubs, barks and roots are used. Sometimes leaves, fruits and flowers may be collected. For herbaceous plants, the whole plant is used. Drugs (decoction, infusion and maceration) are administrated to the victim orally or externally. INTRODUCTION The use of plants for treatment of various diseases has been practised by many African peoples for centuries (Kokwaro, 1976). Because of many mortal accidents caused by snake bites, people looked for medicine and discovered after many tentative efforts that plants are able to stop envenomations. Thus the antivenomous plants were introduced in the traditional pharmacopoeia. In Zaire. antivenomous plants are not well known by the public because they constitute one of the links of medical secret of the traditional medicine men.

  • Advent Advice from Pope Francis: Choose Prayer and Charity Over Consumerism
    Advent advice from Pope Francis: Choose prayer and charity over consumerism This Advent, choose prayer and charity over consumerism, Pope Francis said Sunday in his first Mass of the liturgical year. “Resist the dazzling lights of consumption, which will shine everywhere this month, and believe that prayer and charity are not lost time, but the greatest treasures,” Pope Francis said in his Advent homily Dec. 1. “This is the drama of today: houses full of things, but empty of children,” he said in St. Peter’s Basilica. Pope Francis celebrated an Advent Mass with Congolese immigrants, in which he warned against the selfish attitudes in a society where “consumerism reigns.” “Consumerism is a virus that affects the faith at its root because it makes you believe that life depends only on what you have, and so you forget about God,” he warned. “The meaning of life is not to accumulate.” “When you live for things, things are never enough, greed grows and others become obstacles in the race and so you end up feeling threatened and, always dissatisfied and angry … ‘I want more, I want more, I want more,’” he said. “One has many goods, but no good is done.” Pope Francis celebrated the Mass at St. Peter’s Altar of the Chair to mark the 25th anniversary of the foundation of the Congolese Catholic Chaplaincy of Rome. The inculturated Mass included traditional Congolese music and the Zaire Use of the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite. “Dear brothers and sisters, you have come from afar. You left your homes, you left loved ones and dear things.

Hylander Deputy Director, International Division before the Subcommittee on Africa of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs 0 on // +4 JEh%L Food-For-Peace Program and IL’/ ,&he Foreign Military Sales Program in Zaire 7 Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee: We are pleased to provide you the results of our reviews of the Food-For-Peace Program and the Foreign Military Sales Program in Zaire, which were done at your request. FOOD-FOR-PEACE PROGRAM First, I would like to discuss the Food-For-Peace Program, highlighting the rice distribution program, the management of counterpart funds, and some of the advantages and disadvantages of various alternatives to the present rice program. The Public Law 480 program has become an increasingly important part of U.S. economic assistance to Zaire. Since 1976, about $66.8 mill-ion has been programed under title I 008~ H which provides for the concessional sale of agricultural commodities. In addition, about $7.3 million has been pro- gramed under title II which authorizes food donations to meet famine or other0 urgent requirements. Rice distribution and monitorinq As you know, the U.S. effort to control and monitor the ‘J in-country distribution of rice provided under title I of Public Law 480 is unique to Zaire. Normally, the United bQ cm ’ States ends its involvement upon delivery of the commodities <J :, to the recipient country.
