Two years have passed since the statue of President William McKinley was taken off his pedestal on the Arcata Plaza in a quiet pre-dawn operation and, since that morning, the bronze work has remained out of public view. After being placed on a cushion of tires in the back of a flatbed truck for the 2,600-mile trip due east to McKinley s longtime Ohio home back in March of 2019, barely a trickle of information has been forthcoming from the Timken Foundation of Canton, the official procurer of noted artist Haig Patigian s sculpture.

Missouri House condemns Dred Scott ruling March 31, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.

If such a restriction were placed on individuals prohibiting them from passing out water to pets while waiting in line at a vaccination event, it would be considered cruelty to animals. ....
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Playwright August Strindberg (1849–1912) was a maverick innovator who loved to experiment with plot and language. One of his stories takes place in a dream and the hero is the Christ-like daughter of a Vedic god. He once said that he felt an immense need to become a savage and create a new world. Given your current astrological potentials, Aries, I suspect that might be an apt motto for you right now. APRIL FOOL! I half-lied. There s no need for you to become a savage. In fact, it s better if you don t. But the coming weeks will definitely be a good time to start creating a new world. ....
