Caregiving is tough. It's one thing to see a loved one in the dirty trenches of illness; it is a whole other to jump headfirst into that trench with them. Caring for a man who is suffering from depression can be even harder, because depression isn't often seen - it's felt.

NIH and CDC statistics explain that women have a higher likelihood of being depressed. Many experts disagree - noting that depression is just less diagnosed in men. This makes sense considering men commit suicide nearly four times more frequently than women due to their symptoms being overlooked and untreated. Even if the data is correct, there are still six million of my fellow men who are experiencing some level of depression at any given time. Six million fathers, husbands, boyfriends, brothers, and uncles living day by day wondering both when the pain is going to end and how to break through the crushing stigma of depression.

The truth of this can be seen in one man's story, and to keep his identity anonymous, I will call him John. Three years ago, John's son was killed, and understandably, he fell into depression. What is interesting is that John is a licensed clinical social worker (L.C.S.W) and has spent several years working with populations suffering from depression and a variety of other mental health conditions. He was no stranger to depression's devastating effects or coping methods but, as he found out, helping others isn't the same as helping yourself. During the time of his son's death, he was in a relationship with a woman who didn't know how to help him. She called family members asking "what is wrong with him?" She felt that the short period of 3-6 months should've been enough time for him to grieve and get over his depression. It was not, and their relationship ended. Eventually he beat the depression through the support of family and friends. Although, if his girlfriend would have handled the situation differently or had been more informed, things might have gone better for them and their relationship may have lasted.

My point isn't to paint a hopeless picture but rather to show there is immense opportunity for change even if it means that as a caregiver you could have to balance your way through a mine field of defensiveness, denial, anger, and despondence. Here are 4 tips to help you do it unscathed.

TIP #1 UNDERSTAND HIS DEPRESSION _"There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds."_ ― Laurell K. Hamilton

One of the largest misconceptions about depression is that it is a feeling - which is part of the reason men are so reluctant to talk about it. Yes, it is a feeling but it is also much more. Not only does it effect people on an emotional level but it also drains them physically and psychologically. The chemical imbalance in the brain slowly causes the body to shut down. That is why if your partner is depressed, he will be lacking the motivation to hit the gym or to pursue a once cherished hobby. With this in mind, the first thing you can do to help is make sure he is eating a balanced diet and is exercising. Buy fresh food, avoid stocking the fridge with highly caffeinated products and booze, and see if he will go walking with you. These are all easy and are tremendously helpful, but won't necessarily combat the depression itself. For that, we go to Tip #2.

TIP #2 ACKNOWLEDGING HIS DEPRESSION _"Never ignore the elephant in the room. That's rude; play with it and introduce it."_ ― Donna Lynn Hope

Confronting his depression will be tough but is absolutely necessary if you are going to help reverse its course. What you're going to be doing here isn't confronting him and telling him he is depressed. Trust me, he knows he depressed or at least that something is wrong. The goal is to show him that you acknowledge he is going through something and that asking for help is okay. I've broken it down into
four steps -

1.  Approach him where he is comfortable, at home or maybe your favorite date spot. Make sure you have privacy and enough time to talk (at least an hour).

Tell him you noticed he has been "feeling down" lately. I would avoid using the word "depressed" because it could trigger the walls to go straight up. Bring up examples - but do so in a gentle way.

Explain your mutual goal - you BOTH want him to feel better.

Depressed men feel isolated in their pain and hopelessness. Explain that asking for help is a sign of strength not of weakness.

TIP #3 SELF CARE _"The Best Health Care Plan Is A Self Care Plan"_ ― Nina Leavins

"In the event of a decompression, an oxygen mask will automatically appear in front of you. If you are travelling with a child or someone who requires assistance, secure your own mask first, and then assist the other person."

If you've ever been on an airplane you've likely heard some iteration these words. While growing up they confused me because it seemed like it would make more sense to help the helpless and vulnerable first, but with age I realized that if you are incapacitated you won't be of any help to anyone. The same goes for caring for a man with depression. You need to secure your own mental stability before you can help him.

The difference in a situation with male depression as opposed to other diseases is that the frustration and stress isn't going to come in the traditional way. You won't be stretched thin providing medical assistance to him or running back and forth from a hospital. But, rather the emotional connection you have with your partner will be taxed. Because of the nature of depression he won't be as connected or invested in your relationship as he was when he was healthy. He might become more combative or more withdrawn, depending on how the depression affects him. Don't get pulled into this or take it personally. Do what you need to do to stay healthy. Connect with friends, exercise, or shop - you have an identity outside of your relationship.

TIP #4 INVOLVE THE PROFESSIONALS

Getting professional medical personnel involved is the most critical step as it is the most effective way to cure the depression. I understand it can be incredibly hard to get a guy to see doctor, for even the most routine of checkups, let alone getting him to see a therapist or psychologist for depression. Here are some ways to make it easier:

1.  Ask him to do it for you or your family. Tell him it will bring you peace of mind if he sees someone.

See the right doctor - Ask if you can set up an appointment with your family doctor so they can go over the problem. It will be an easier push for him to see a family doc as oppose to a "shrink."

Call ahead - Tell the doctor what his symptoms have been. Your testimony might bring up things your partner could miss or will neglect to share.

Depression is devastating, insidious, it can break up relationships and ruin friendships, but it doesn't have to. With the right tools and support, it can be beaten. Helping a man who is in the throes of depression is nothing to be laughed at; I applaud you and hope the tips above will be helpful.

These Photos Perfectly Capture Mental Illness

question: Summarize the 4 tips the author shares for helping someone deal with depression.

answer: The first is to understand a man suffering from depression, since it does run deeper than simply a feeling and can envelop the body and mind. The second is to acknowledge his depression so he knows he isn't alone. Sometimes, the author says, men can be reluctant to acknowledge they are suffering from depression, but if someone close to them helps to bring the issue out in the open it can too help them take their first steps towards healing. The third advice is to recognize that though a man dealing with depression might not be able to care for himself like your usual partner or family member who suffers an illness, it's important that you take care of yourself so that you can still provide strength and support to him as his own health issues. The author's fourth and final important point is to seek professional medical advice, because often they can outperform any advice a friend or family member gives.

critique: The first tip is to understand his depression, not a man suffering from depression.

How do you say “startup” in Spanish? Luckily, it’s simple: Startup.

But that’s about the only easy thing that Spanish entrepreneurs have going for them as they attempt to launch new companies in their home country. Spain’s economy is faltering, and over 52 percent of citizens under 25 are currently unemployed. But when those young people attempt to launch companies on their own, they’re slapped with national policies that are notoriously anti-entrepreneurship, including a new “Exit Tax” implemented on the first of this year, which will tax a company’s potential earnings if they have received venture funds and attempt to relocate elsewhere.

A local startup, Dat Venture, is offering a lifeline of sorts. In February, they will be bringing 15 Spanish companies to Boston for a three-month-long immersion program. The companies, which pay $10,000 per employee to enroll, are promised everything they need to successfully integrate into Boston’s startup scene.

Dat will buy their plane tickets and set them up with housing at Krash and office space in WeWork’s South Station location. The companies will take business classes at Harvard Extension School and seminars developed by Dat which will teach them the basics, like pitching American venture firms or sales and marketing techniques, says Matt Hurley, one of Dat Venture’s five co-founders.

“Spaniards are very long-winded,” Hurley said, “and Americans do not take well to 20-minute startup pitches.”

Dat Venture, which launched this past summer, has already held one pilot session, but this 15-startup group is the real test, says Hurley. “The businesses want to be immersed in the ecosystem in Boston,” he said. “It’s about validating your idea with American partners, banks, and big brands.”

Among the startups in the Dat cohort are UpToDown, a online software catalogue that is one of the world’s most popular destinations for downloading Android apps, with over 62 million downloads a month, and FreePik, one of the world’s largest databases for Internet graphics. Both companies have over $1 million in revenues, says Hurley, and the combined revenues of all 15 companies total more than $10 million.

Dat Venture is working in partnership with the Efron Group, a multinational consulting company with an office in Boston and a strong presence in Spanish-speaking countries around the world. “We were very impressed by the possibilities of Massachusetts, and given our profile as a technology and innovation driven company we decided to launch a singular initiative in the market,”Alejandro de Mora, Efron’s CEO of US operations, said of the partnership via e-mail. “Dat Venture wants to be the bridge…between the exceptional ecosystem of Boston and the entrepreneurs outside.”

Hurley said that the entrepreneurs will be visiting the United States on tourist visas, and that Dat Venture and Efron will work to find opportunities for them to secure work visas so they can stay. Much of that is still being sorted out, he admitted. But he said providing access to the US startup scene in a way that doesn’t involve funding, or equity for that matter, is an option that many businesses are open to and excited about: One company decided to bring its entire eight-person team to Boston through the program, and they will be renting a house together in Porter Square.

The Spaniards arrive in Boston on Feb. 1, and will be immediately introduced to one aspect of American culture they might otherwise be unfamiliar with: The Super Bowl. “Hopefully they won’t be too jetlagged to watch football,” Hurley said.

PAT MCLAUGHLIN is a singer/songwriter based in Nashville, Tennessee.

He was raised in Waterloo, Iowa, but moved to San Francisco, California in the early 1970s. There McLaughlin began to write songs, playing alone at open mic nights and in the streets near the bay. After a brief stint in Boston, he moved to Nashville where he formed a band and released his first album in 1980. Two consecutive projects for Capitol Records followed. His first major label album _Pat McLaughlin_ made its debut in 1988.[1]

In the late 1980s, McLaughlin experienced his first mainstream country music success when Steve Wariner recorded McLaughlin's song “Lynda”. Wariner's version climbed to the top of the charts, winning McLaughlin his first BMI Country Award in 1988.[2] In 1992, Tanya Tucker and Delbert McClinton had a hit with McLaughlin's “Tell Me About It” — another BMI award resulted from this song.[3] During his years in New Orleans, McLaughlin also released records produced by Jim Rooney (Hal Ketchum) and Ben Keith (Neil Young).

In 1997 along with former Subdudes members Tommy Malone and Johnny Ray Allen plus drummer Kenneth Blevins, McLaughlin formed Tiny Town. The quartet recorded one self-titled album, produced by Bernie Leadon in 1998.[4] McLaughlin's compositions have been recorded by artists including Bonnie Raitt, Alan Jackson, Taj Mahal, Trisha Yearwood, Al Kooper, Nanci Griffith, Josh Turner, Gary Allan, Shawn Camp and Don Williams.

Gary Allan recorded McLaughlin's “Songs About Rain” in 2003, securing yet another BMI Country Award for McLaughlin. Allan's 2010 release, _Get off the Pain_, includes two McLaughlin co-writes: “I Think I've Had Enough” and “When You Give Yourself Away.”

As a studio musician he has contributed guitar to projects by Jamie Hartford, Rosanne Cash, Julie Roberts, Don Williams, Al Cooper, Shawn Camp, Cowboy Jack Clement, Neil Diamond, Johnny Cash and many more.[5]

2010 has found McLaughlin continuing his monthly gigs at Douglas Corner Cafe in Nashville. In spring 2010 he was featured on “Jammin' at Hippie Jacks,” which airs on select public television stations across the U.S. He has also been performing with songwriters Shawn Camp and Al Anderson (formerly of NRBQ) in a band called The World Famous Headliners. There has been some speculation that a World Famous Headliners CD will be released while McLaughlin's website also makes note that a solo CD and DVD are forthcoming.

In November 2010 Pat McLaughlin appeared as an opening act for John Prine. “Summer's End,”[6] a song McLaughlin wrote with Prine, was The Americana Music Association 2019 Song of the Year.[7]

[International Women's Day]

_8th March 2019_

INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY!

Happy International Women’s Day! We proudly have a heap of strong female founders as wonderful clients. Therefore, this blog is dedicated to you – keep representing women in power and keep achieving above and beyond.

The 8th March marks International Women’s Day which is a global celebration of the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. Furthermore, it also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity. This year’s theme is #BalanceForBetter – Better the balance, better the world. You can read more on the website here.

FIELD DAY/FIELD APOTHECARY

Firstly, a strong female founder we are celebrating is Alix Mulholland of Field Day/Field Apothecary. Alix created Field Day with the vision of bringing a little bit of luxury to homes with natural, long-lasting Irish inspired scents. For instance, Alix’s hand poured candles (Sea, Tea, Field to name a few) offer a unique and distinctive lingering aroma that make you feel right at home. Perfect as a gift for friends or family, or as a treat for yourself you can enjoy time and time again. View her beautiful products here.

We spoke to Alix about the importance of packaging within her industry.

“As a giftware company our packaging quality is extremely important – Priory Press understand this and always produce printing of a high standard. They have gone to great lengths to ensure I get consistency in my print colours. I have worked with many printers over the years and find Priory Press very helpful and courteous.”

[Alix Mulholland]

Chocolatey Clare

Secondly, Clare’s a Vegan, but she also _loves_ chocolate. As a result, she was on the hunt in the supermarket for vegan, dairy-free chocolate that somehow still tasted chocolatey. In conclusion, Clare embarked on creating her own bar of chocolate. So, with six flavours later and stocked at Supervalu, Avoca Ireland and more, it’s safe to say she’s mastered the art!

Here is her recent post thanking us for the artwork we’ve created for her. Our highly skilled in-house design team can help clients just like Clare, who was open to guidance and inspiration from us into crafting a perfect design!

“I WAS DELIGHTED TO WORK WITH PRIORY PRESS PACKAGING AS I HAD BEEN LOOKING FOR A PRINTING COMPANY WITH AN ECO-FRIENDLY ETHOS THAT WOULD MATCH MY BRAND – EVERY ASPECT WAS EXPERTLY COVERED, FROM VEGETABLE-BASED INK TO WIND-POWERED PRINTING MACHINES.

WHAT MORE COULD I WANT! EXCELLENT COMMUNICATION FROM THE TEAM AND TOP-NOTCH PACKAGING THAT I’M PROUD TO USE FOR MY CHOCOLATE. THANK YOU, PRIORY PRESS!”

Remedy Roots

Cousin duo Lisa and Stuart founded Remedy Roots in early 2018, with combined experience in Graphic Design and Marketing, and a love for all things natural – they created their unique herbal tea blends that all the family can enjoy. Launching their completely compostable packaging with a little help from us at their Food Academy trial in Supervalu, they have gone from strength to strength. We can’t wait to see what else they come up with!

“The guys at Priory Press helped us develop our products to the standard we had hoped for; with them, we achieved our goal of completely compostable packaging. The new packs have boosted our shelf sales, drummed up new retailer interest and given us something to be proud of when talking to our customers. Overnight, they’ve become a key partner and advisor in our supply chain.”

The Busy Botanist

Best friends and strong female founders, Clair and Jo, are passionate about healthy options through easy choices. They found most on-shelf herbal teas disappointing as they contained additives, colourings and preservatives – not as healthy as they appear! Clair and Jo buddied up to produce splendid (and healthy) tea to support their active lifestyle. They currently have an impressive range of 14 quirky products which include ‘Will Power,’ ‘Women’s Problem’s,’ ‘Sneezy Wheezy’ and PPP’s favourite, ‘Pick Me Up.’ We loved creating such vibrant packaging for Clair and Jo as they complement the vibrant flavours.

The Little Herb Farm

Finally, this strong female founder, Lindsey, luckily has her family on board to help with all things herby! She even has the help of her young children and their Granny and Papa. A strong female founder and family woman all in one! This business boomed in a flash and now the products can be found all over the UK. Their vinegar bottles involve home-grown ingredients including herbs and locally sourced fruit. Also, check out these Gluten-Free, Fat-Free wonders! Furthermore, Priory Press Packaging created sleeves for their new sauces and dips which complement these delicious delicacies!

answer: Field Apothecary is set up by Alix Mulholland.

critique: It is omitted that Mulholland is being celebrated for her achievements.

question: Describe Chocolatey Clare.

answer: Chocolatey Clare is a vegan who likes chocolate. She was on the hunt in the supermarket for vegan, dairy-free chocolate that somehow still tasted chocolatey. She embarked on creating her own bar of chocolate with six flavors.

critique: "She embarked on creating her own bar of chocolate with six flavors." - this is extraneous information and should be deleted.

So I really love to write short stories, but I never feel confident enough to share them so comment and give me advice!

Beep Beep! I groggily rubbed my eyes and checked the time, 8:13, way too early for a Saturday. Oh well, I won't be able to fall back asleep now that the rays of the early mourning sun trickled into my bedroom. I picked up my phone, I had gotten a text from an unknown number it read:

C u soon my little angel- Dad

Must be a wrong number, I thought, my dad died when I was little. I don't remember him and I live alone with my mom. I just shrugged it off and got ready for the day.

I was still brushing my long brown hair as I walked down the stairs to the kitchen. "Mmmm Mom, that bacon smells delicious, is there some for me?" I entered the kitchen to the aroma of a homemade breakfast.

"Of corse Amber, I also made pancakes! Come sit down at the table with me." I helped her bring the food to the table and we both sat down to eat.

"This food is delicious Mom, what made you want to make such a big breakfast?"

She looked around nervously, "Can't I make a breakfast without you thinking there's some ulterior motive?!" She laughed and I smiled, I still had a feeling something was up.

I was right.

"Okay Amber you got me, I do have news and you're not going to like it." I raised and eyebrow as if to say 'okay what is it?' "We're moving away, again."

"WHAT?" I shouted as I stood up, "I thought you said we were going to finally settle down!"

Mom sighed, "I know what I said but I found a job in New York that I can't deny."

"So we're moving across the country for a job again? Why can't we just live in one place for over a year? I'm in High-school  now, it's already hard enough for me to make friends without being the new kid all the time." I stormed out of the kitchen up into my room slamming the door behind me.

***********************************************************

That night I had a very strange dream, I was in a bedroom that was on fire. I was a baby in a crib and I couldn't get out. Suddenly a man entered the room and came over to pick me up. He looked into my eyes and said with a frown, "You should have never been born, now the witches are angry and you must die," he began to pick me up but was struck from behind, he got up and turned around to see my mother. She took a burning piece of wood and struck him across the face with it. When she was sure he was dead she picked me up and ran out the door.

***********************************************************

I woke up sweating, it was 1:32 in the mourning and was still dark. My mom burst in the room, "I heard you scream," she panted, "are you okay?"

I burst out crying as I told her about my dream, she just sighed and sat on my bed. "I guess it's time I told you the story of your father. So about 20 years ago your father, Andrew was a part of some sort of group. The men of the group served these witches who provided them with wealth and safety, but they were to be married to one of the witches. Andrew didn't want to marry them so he left. We met a few years later, got married and had you. When you were still young something happened to Andrew, he started to act strange saying, the witches are angry the girl must die. I got scared when he tried to kill you with a steak knife so I took you and ran. I stayed with a friend for a while until Andrew found us and set the house on fire. Your dream was a memory of him trying to kill you. I've been on the run from him ever since."

I was silent for a few minutes, this was a lot to soak in at once, "I'm going to go take a walk." Mom nodded and I got up and left.

It was still dark out as I walked down the street, None of the steetlights were on and no one was around. My head was spinning with so many questions, where is he now? Will he hurt my friends? Then it hit me, the text was from my dad, he's here! I turned and started to run back to the house to tell mom but I ran into a man. As I got back on my feet and rubbed my head I started to apologize, "I'm so sorry sir, I-" I looked up at his face and gasped, "Dad?"

Well that's part 1, please tell me what you think. I'll have Part 2 up soon!

title: The Man With The Scar Part 1

question: Summarize Andrew's role in the story.

answer: Andrew is Amber's father. He was part of a group of men who served witches. He left the group when he was told he had to marry a witch. He tried to kill Amber when she was a baby, and her mom took her and ran. He found them and set the house on fire. Amber dreams about him trying to kill her.

critique: It is omitted that Andrew is the man Amber runs into at the end of the story.

critique: Missing full-stop at the end of the first sentence.

critique: "He left the group when he was told he had to marry a witch." - this is incorrect. He left the group because he didn't want to marry a witch.

critique: "He tried to kill Amber when she was a baby, and her mom took her and ran." - this is incorrect. Amber's mom took her and ran after Andrew tried to kill her with a steak knife.

question: Summarize Amber's dream.

answer: Amber dreamt that she was a baby in a burning bedroom. A man comes in and says Amber should have never been born and that the witches are angry and the girl must die. Her mother kills the man with a stick and carries Amber out of the burning room.

critique: "Amber dreamt that she was a baby in a burning bedroom." - Amber was a baby in the dream, but she was not in a burning bedroom. The dream was a memory of her father trying to kill her.

critique: "Amber dreamt that she was a baby in a burning bedroom." - Amber was a baby in the dream, but she was not in a burning bedroom. She was in a crib.

critique: "Her mother kills the man with a stick and carries Amber out of the burning room." - this is incorrect. Her mother struck the man with a burning piece of wood.

critique: "Amber dreamt that she was a baby in a burning bedroom." - Amber was a baby in a crib, not a burning bedroom.

critique: "Man" - the model should mention that the man is Amber's father

critique: "Amber dreamt that she was a baby in a burning bedroom." - Amber was a baby in a crib.

critique: It's omitted that Amber's mother struck the man with a burning piece of wood.

critique: "The men of the group served these witches who provided them with wealth and safety, but they were to be married to one of the witches." is evidence that the witches were angry with Amber's father for not marrying one of them. Include this information in the answer.

question: Summarize Amber's feelings about her father.

answer: Amber's father is a part of a group of men that serves witches. He does not want to marry one of the witches, so he runs away. He does not like Amber, and tries to kill her. Since he is dead, Amber is scared of him.

critique: "Since he is dead, Amber is scared of him." - is inaccurate because Andrew is still alive. Amber is scared of her father because he tried to kill her as a baby.

critique: The story does not mention Amber's father disliking her.

question: Summarize the main source of tension in the story.

answer: Amber and her mother spend a lot of time together. However, Amber's (the narrator's) mom's job keeps them moving a lot causing Amber to have a hard time making long term friends. The dream she had on the night before her mom's breaking news of moving could allude to a memory her mom has hidden, especially since the dream happened right after she told Amber the story of her father.

critique: The answer is a bit confusing. It should be rewritten.

_BLANQUERNA_ () is a novel written around 1283 by Ramon Llull. It chronicles the life of its eponymous hero. It is the first major work of literature written in Catalan.

Structure

[Raymond Llull] The novel is divided into five parts.[1] Llull's _LLIBRE D'AMIC E D'AMAT_ (_Book of the Friend and Beloved_) is often included as a semiautonomous section within _Blanquerna_.[2]

Plot summary

The central character of the novel named after him, Blanquerna, was born to Evast and Aloma. Before marrying, Evast, a nobleman, had wanted to follow a religious life but at the same time wished to experience matrimony. He became a merchant after his marriage to Aloma, and he gives his son an education based on religious and philosophical pursuits.

In the second part of the novel, Blanquerna confronts the same choice his father did: between a celibate life and a married one. Blanquerna decides to become a hermit, which saddens his mother; she tries to have her son marry the beautiful Cana. But Blanquerna persuades Cana to become a nun, and she later becomes an abbess.[3] Blanquerna also faces sexual temptation in the form of a maiden named Natana. This second part includes a description of the seven sins.

In parts three through five of the novel, Blanquerna, having chosen a religious life, becomes a monk (though he desires to become a hermit instead), and quickly becomes an abbot. In time, he is elected pope.

The road to the papacy is not easy; Blanquerna is constantly faced with troublesome decisions and temptations, and he is not perfect. Indeed, Blanquerna “is made credible precisely because he is prone to make mistakes and to experience temptation, and in the end this gives him an authority which other authorities are obliged to recognize.”[4] Blanquerna's life takes him through widely varying places and social strata, from uninhabited forests and wildernesses to the dense Roman urban landscape of thieves and prostitutes, from interactions with young maidens to interactions with popes and emperors.[5]

As he matures, Blanquerna listens to the advice of a jongleur, a “wise fool” named Ramon. Blanquerna reforms the Church completely as pope, with Ramon’s help, and finally becomes the hermit he had always desired to be. As a hermit, he composes a book of meditations to help his fellow hermits defeat temptation: this is the _Llibre d'Amic e d'Amat_, which consists of 365 love poems.[6] This text “purports to offer the protagonist’s mystical confessions, based on personal experience and examples of 'Sufi preachers,' as a guide to contemplation within the apostolic utopia of a reform of contemporary Christendom.”[7]

Selected verses

_27 The bird was singing in the garden of the Beloved. The Lover came and said to the bird: - If we don’t understand each other through language, let’s communicate through love, because your song represents my Beloved to my eyes._

_295 The Lover was in danger in the great sea of love; and he trusted his Beloved, who came to rescue him with tribulations, thoughts, tears and cries, sighs and sorrows, since the sea was one of love and also made to honour his principles._

The MANIS MASTODON SITE is a archaeological site on the Olympic Peninsula near Sequim, Washington, United States. During the dig, the remains of an American mastodon were recovered which had a 13,800 year old projectile[1] made of the bone from a different mastodon embedded in its rib. The site was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.

History

On August 8, 1977, a farmer named Emanuel Manis was digging his property with a backhoe when he found the tusks of an American mastodon.[2] An archaeological excavation led by Dr. Carl Gustafson of Washington State University found a rib bone that had what appeared to be a spear point made from the bone of a different mastodon embedded in it. The point had bone growth around it, indicating that it had not caused the mastodon's death.[3] Gustafson deemed it the earliest known evidence of interaction between humans and mastodons in the Americas. However, there was debate,[4] because of the lack of indisputable proof that the point was made by humans.[5] This situation changed in 2011, when a new study of the remains definitively concluded that Gustafson was right as to both the age and the human origin of the point.[6] Gustafson also analyzed the position of the [7] fossil, which was lying on its left side, while the heavily fragmented skull was rotated 180 degrees from its natural position. Noting that this could not have occurred due to natural causes Gustafson deduced that the carcass must have been tampered with by humans.[8] Archaeologists were surprised to find a mastodon in the area at all because pollen samples that were taken showed no evidence of trees, which mastodons fed on.[9]

In an excavated layer above the mastodon, as well as that of a 6,700-year-old deposit of ash from the eruption of Mount Mazama, a projectile-point was found in the style of Coastal Olcott points common in the area no earlier than 9,000 years ago.[10]

The site also turned up remains of caribou, bison, and plant macrofossils.[11] Bones of the bison showed evidence of butchering by humans.[12] The pollen found in the same layer as the mastodon was predominantly sedge and cattail, while other layers contained that of plants ranging from Canadian buffaloberry, blackberry and wild rose, to willow and alder.[13]

Gustafson continued to excavate at the site for eight years, finding the partial remains of two more mastodons. Though stone tools and artifacts of bone were found, Gustafson failed to find evidence of an encampment by the people theorized to have butchered the mastodons.[14]

Prior to the excavation at the Manis site, which was dated before 12,000 years ago,[15] archaeological sites west of the Cascade Range considered to be early were aged between 9,000 and 6,000 years old.[16]

During the years of excavation, Clare and Emanuel Manis welcomed over 50,000 visitors to the site. In 1978, when the site was added to the National Register of Historic Places, Senator Henry M. Jackson made the announcement.[17] In 2002, on the 25th anniversary of the discovery, Manis' widow donated the site to the National Archaeological Conservancy.[18] The fossil remains of the mastodon were donated to the Sequim Museum & Arts in Sequim and are now on display. A casting of the bone projectile point is also on display.

[Manis Mastodon, Cast of Rib with Embedded Object; The rib bone holds an object that is embedded 0.75 inches deep, and tapers to a point. The wound is thought to be a penetration fracture showing several months of healing. Museum and Arts Center, Sequim, Washington.|alt=A photograph of about five inches of a long, narrow bone. The break is jagged. At one end a spiky piece of a different material protrudes from the bone. The bone is on a grey backer with a plaque beneath it with some text explaining the embedded spear point..]

In Oct. 2011, the Center of the Study of the First Americans (CSFA), Anthropology Department at Texas A&M University published findings from DNA tests, CT scans and radiocarbon dating on the mastodon and the spear point. The CT scan clearly established the spear point had been sharpened to a needle point by human hands. Four radiocarbon dates yielded an age of 13,860-13,763 calendar years BP.

Since the 1950s, archaeologists have believed the Clovis people were the first human inhabitants of North America and that they lived here 13,000 years ago. However the discovery of sites pre-dating Clovis, such as Monte Verde in Chile and Meadowcroft Rockshelter in Pennsylvania, have been challenging this presumption at least since the 1990s.[19] The Manis Mastodon Site is 800 years older than the Clovis people. This site, among others, is helping to change the long-held beliefs of many archaeologists about the earliest human inhabitants of North America. The Manis Mastodon Site remains the oldest archaeological site on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State and one of the oldest in North America.

In November 2011, Shirley Manis, daughter of discoverer Emanuel Manis, authored the first and only children's picture book about the Manis Mastodon Site, which includes the most recent research analysis.[20]

OTHELLO MOLINEAUX (born 1939) is a jazz steelpan player who spent much of his early career with Jaco Pastorius. He was among the earliest musicians to adapt the steelpan to jazz.[1] He has worked with Monty Alexander, Chicago, and David Johansen.

Career

Born in a family of musicians, his mother being a piano teacher and his father playing the violin, he learned the piano very young, and at the age of eleven began to play the steelpan. He left Trinidad in 1969 and began a career as a pianist, while continuing to play the steelpan. It is with his group mixing steelpan and conventional instruments that he moved to Miami in 1971. There he met bassist Jaco Pastorius and played in 1976 on his first album, which allowed him to appear on the jazz-rock scene. From then on, he would go on to concerts around the world, collaborating with big names in jazz including Dizzy Gillespie, Herbie Hancock, Monty Alexander, Weather Report, Joe Zawinul, Ahmad Jamal.

Othello Molineaux is recognized as having revealed steelpan to jazz as a solo instrument and improvisation, like the piano. He has mainly been an accompanist, notably of Jaco Pastorius, participating in almost all of his albums, and in the tour with the big band Word of Mouth. The latter which will also devote a record to steelpan, Holiday for Pans (1982). Othello Molineaux began his solo career in 1993 with the album It's About Time, on the Big World Music label.

He also collaborated with Habana Abierta on the album Boomerang (2006).

The NEW YORK YANKEES of the third American Football League was the third professional American football team competing under that name. It is unrelated to the Yankees of the first AFL (and the National Football League), the Yankees of the second AFL, and the (later) Yankees of the All-America Football Conference. The Yankees played their home games in Yankee Stadium and Downing Stadium in New York, New York.

After finishing fourth in the AFL’s season of 1940, the Yankees were sold to agent and promoter Douglas Hertz. By the summer of 1941, the team’s AFL franchise was revoked in light of a scandal involving the new owner, and a group headed by William Cox assumed control of the team by the beginning of the new season. The newly renamed NEW YORK AMERICANS were competitive, finishing one-half game behind league champions Columbus Bullies. While the Americans were making plans for a 1942 AFL season, the league suspended operations in the wake of the entry of the United States into World War II, and the Americans followed suit. The league did not return to business after the end of the war, and neither did the New York Americans.

1940 New York Yankees

The Yankees were one of three charter members of the third AFL (along with the Boston Bears and Buffalo Indians) that were formed with the expressed purpose of competing in a major professional football league to compete with the established National Football League. The new league became official after the Cincinnati Bengals, Columbus Bullies and a newly minted Milwaukee Chiefs defected from the American Professional Football Association. The roster for the 1940 season had five players who competed in the NFL in 1939.[1] Head coach Jack McBride was also the coach of the New York Yankees of the second American Football League (1936–1937).

In January 1941, the Yankees were sold to agent and promoter Douglas Hertz. After questions arose about the finances of the new owner arose, the AFL revoked the franchise and transferred ownership to a syndicate headed by William Cox (later the owner of the Philadelphia Phillies baseball team) in August. Shortly afterward, the team’s name was changed to the New York Americans.

Unlike the 1940 Yankees, the Americans had a flair for publicity, having signed college star running back John Kimbrough for $37,500 on a personal services contract that required personal appearances on behalf of the team.[2] Well into the season, the Americans announced the signing of Heisman Trophy winner Tom Harmon (who had begun a career in broadcasting University of Michigan football games) for the game between the Americans and league leader Columbus. Harmon threw two interceptions while Hutchinson was similarly ineffective. In the second half, the New York fans shouted “We want [Bill] Hutchinson,” the Americans’ regular rusher. The game ended in a 0–0 tie.[3]

A loss to the Milwaukee Chiefs the following week (the last game of the season) cost the Americans the AFL championship.

1941 New York Yankees

The 1941 NEW YORK YANKEES, the fourth New York professional football team with the name, was a team formed and owned by Douglas Hertz after the third American Football League revoked his ownership of a franchise that was later renamed the New York Americans in August 1941. Initially an independent team, the Yankees joined the American Association in October to replace the Providence Steamroller, which dropped out of the league after only two games. Having four members of the 1940 Yankees, the 1941 edition lost all six of its American Association games (as a traveling team) and folded soon afterward.[4]

[4] Nothing Minor About It: The American Association/AFL of 1936-50 – Bob Gill, Professional Football Researchers Association (1990)

title: New York Yankees (1940 AFL)

question: What does the article say about how the ownership of the New York Yankees of the third American Football League changed?

answer: The Yankees were sold to Doug Hertz in January 1941, but in August 1941, questions about the finances of the new owner arose, and the AFL revoked the franchise and transferred ownership to a syndicate headed by William Cox, who was later the owner of the Philadelphia Phillies baseball team. Hertz formed a new team in the fall of that year.

critique: The answer should mention that the new team was named the New York Yankees.

critique: The Yankees were sold to Douglas Hertz in January 1941, not sold to Doug Hertz.

critique: The Yankees franchise was revoked because of Hertz, but not a new team.

text: The last sentence is irrelevant and should be omitted.

question: What does the article say about whether Douglas Hertz was charged with fraud?

answer: No answer

critique: The answer is incorrect. The article does mention that Hertz was charged with fraud.

critique: The answer should mention the scandal involving Hertz.

critique: It is omitted that the Yankees were sold to agent and promoter Douglas Hertz. After questions arose about the finances of the new owner arose, the AFL revoked the franchise and transferred ownership to a syndicate headed by William Cox.

critique: The answer should at least mention whether the Yankees went bankrupt for fraud.

critique: The article does not say anything about whether Douglas Hertz was charged with fraud.

critique: The answer should mention that the article does not mention anything about fraud.

2nd Generation Artisan Crafter with passion for making beautiful things

My mother represents the first generation in my family to have a passion for making beautiful things. As a child, I watched my mom make several amazing craft items, from handmade dolls that resembled me to a large fantastic Hawaiian quilt. Her crafting has resulted in the opening of two stores in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii that showcase her jewelry art pieces and hand-made purses.

Feeling the same passion, I've found it's easy to produce an abundance of beautiful things when you love what you're doing. Opening an Etsy shop is a chance for me to share it with others. :) Hope you enjoy the store.

Have a wonderful day!

Kind regards,

DANYLO (ANDRIY) OSTROZKY (, , died after 1366) was probably Prince of Turaŭ, first Prince of Ostroh, and founder of the Ostrozky House.

Biography

It is not clear whether he was descendant of Pinsk–Turaŭ or Galicia–Volhynia branch of the Rurikid Dynasty. Some scholars claim that his grandfather was Vasilko Romanovich, Prince of Slonim and direct descendant of Roman of Galicia, others however claim his origin in line of Sviatopolk II of Kiev and suppose that his father was Danylo Dmytrovych.[1] Kasper Niesiecki, an 18th-century writer, reported that “_Daniel Vasilievich, son of Daniel of Galicia`s brother, first started to call himself Prince of Ostrog_”.[2] He could be also direct grandson of Daniel of Galicia and son of Mstislav Danilovich.[3]

Adam Naruszewicz wrote that Danylo Ostrozky was starost of Przemyśl, officer of Casimir III the Great when he inherited Galicia after the death of Boleslaw-Yuri II of Galicia.[4] Daniel was probably only temporary supporting King Casimir, because in 1344 he called the Tatars to fight for Galicia in the Galicia–Volhynia Wars,[5] like Dmytro Dedko who died in the same year. Finally Prince Danylo allied to Liubartas who also rivaled for Galicia with Tatars, Poles and Hungarians. He received Ostroh from Liubartas, King of Galicia–Volhynia,[6] where he rebuilt the castle destroyed by the Tatars.

Was married to Wassilisa (?), father of Feodor Ostrozky and probably Wasyl.[7]

title: Danylo Ostrozky

question: Summarize the relationship between Danylo and Galicia.

answer: Danylo was probably descended from the Galicia-Volhynia branch of the Rurikid Dynasty. Daniel was starost of Przemysl. He was officer of Casimir III the Great. He inherited Galicia after the death of Boleslaw-Yuri II of Galicia.

critique: The response does not answer the question. It is not clear what the relationship between Danylo and Galicia is.

critique: The answer doesn't really answer the question

critique: The answer is too long and should be rewritten.

critique: Doesn't mention the Galicia-Volhynia Wars.

question: What does the text say about Danylo's family?

answer: There are several scholars who claim variations of his heritage through a line of Galicia-Volhynia and Rurikid Dynasties. Kasper Niesiecki wrote that Daniel Vasilievich, son of Daniel of Galicia's brother started to call himself Prince of Ostrog. There are claims that Daniel's father was Danylo Dmytrovych or his grandfather was Vasilko Romanovich. Niesiecki calls Daniel's father Daniel of Galicia's brother. Some scholars claim that Daniel was married to Wassilissa.

critique: The last sentence is semantically confusing.

critique: The response includes extraneous information not useful for the task.

question: What does the text say about Danylo's duties?

answer: No answer

critique: The text briefly explains Ostrozky's social station.

critique: The response misses to mention that Danylo was starost of Przemyśl, officer of Casimir III the Great when he inherited Galicia after the death of Boleslaw-Yuri II of Galicia.

question: What does the text say about Danylo's childhood?

answer: No answer

critique: The response misses to answer the instruction in the task.

critique: The answer should mention that there is no information about his childhood.

critique: The answer should mention that the text doesn't say anything about his childhood.

critique: There is an answer. Remove the statement that there is no answer.

critique: The answer should mention that there is no information on Danylo's childhood.

critique: The text does not mention anything about Danylo's childhood.

“Whitefish, the Master”
The howling wind blew across the shutters like a cliche ruins a good beginning to a story. Not the beginning to a good story, for the story has yet to be determined whether or not it is good. Despite the obvious literary devices, we meet our hero, Whitefish. Whitefish, the ghost, the whisper, the living legend, the myth, Whitefish the mystery. Whitefish strode down the creaking hall of the abandoned mansion now called home. The mansion stood on a bluff, a mere sixty-eight feet from the ocean’s icy gaze. Abandoned, the mansion was a halfway home to those traveling through the area, but only its foyer, for the innermost recesses, where Whitefish resided, were “haunted”. These were simply superstitions, created by Whitefish to elude any unwanted visitors. Shouts and echoes, would drift down the halls, created by endless rants and ravings on new thoughts of rhetoric.

Whitefish was a self proclaimed writer, comparable to the great Greek orators such as Antiphon and Lysais, though the potential had gone unrecognized. To Whitefish’s dismay, the existence of such an individual in this provincial society was backward and deemed unnecessary. Whitefish rejected this society because the purpose of the writing was not for recognition or petty earnings, rather the thrill and excitement of the adventure stored within the next story, waiting to be unlocked by Whitefish’s genius. Whitefish digressed, because Whitefish’s existence had nothing to do with society, rather the life of a humble hermit. Each night, Whitefish paced along the rocky shoreline, illuminated by the full Moon’s iridescent glow, contemplating the universe and its enormity, fathoming the depths to which writing could take oneself. Each night, the manuscripts became longer, the memoir lengthening, the account of Whitefish developing into the esoteric mystery as scribbled by the one and only, Whitefish.

Whitefish’s story was being lived out as it was written, but Whitefish felt it was lackluster. While the solitary existence was Whitefish’s passion, the written word beckoned Whitefish out, into the world to experience more than a dusty mansion. Whitefish read from the mansion’s extensive library which contained thousands of books, where Whitefish would sit, gathering inspiration, watching the ominous waves creep up the shoreline. Whitefish sat for hours at a great Oak table contemplating how the story would pan out, how the characters would meet and get to know each other. How the setting could later create conflict. Small details that would foreshadow the downfall of a character, or the solution to the conflict. The complexity of Whitefish’s mind was somewhat of an enigma. Not to say bipolar, but the raging emotions had cultivated from a life of abandonment and rejection, which left a negative impression on Whitefish. The emotions were not all bad. Whitefish was indeed insane. Left to its own devices, Whitefish had grown paranoid, crazed from the lack of human interaction. At any point in time, Whitefish work on several pieces of literature, ranging from full blown novels, to snippets of interior monologue, though all the while, Whitefish worked on the memoir that would be finished only by the swift hands of Satan himself. This ending would come sooner than Whitefish could have thought.

On a cool autumn evening, the sun had already set and Whitefish sat at the great Oak table when Satan smiled. Whitefish looked to a mural painted on the ceiling of the library and head cocked to one side, Whitefish had an epiphany. The ending to the memoir. The finality that would make the story a legend. A message to future generations of the struggles of the past, of the sacrifices of the future. An ending that would come true. Whitefish had been writing the memoir piece by piece after various significant events, but now, Whitefish felt guilty. The ending would be written before its prophetic demands could be met. But Whitefish was true to its word. Palms sweating, Whitefish jotted down the last paragraphs of the memoir. Once finished, Whitefish set the pages of the story in the middle of the table and stood up. Whitefish walked to the window and leaned a hand upon a pane, gazing out to the vast emptiness of the ocean. Whitefish took the back door out to the patio and stood at the edge of the bluff.

Each step down the bluff depressed the sand, pushing it out as if repelled by the awe of a courageous hero. The tall grasses billowed in the cool autumn breeze, rustling with the soft waves that caressed the smooth rocks, one by one. At the bottom of the bluff, Whitefish stopped. Unprotected, the breeze nipped at Whitefish’s ankles, but to no avail. No shiver or goosebump was aroused by the breeze’s beckon. The rocks, about the size of a fist, were slippery. They were unpleasant to tread upon. Whitefish showed no pain, but the weight of the world burst out its eyes. They showed the thrill of entering the next story, of finishing the old, but the impending doom scrapped the Earth behind Whitefish, pulling back away from the icy depths of the ocean ahead. Whitefish stopped again, this time at the water’s edge. Each push of the ocean moistened the bare feet of Whitefish. Another step forward cast Whitefish several inches below the surface. The next step sent several more inches. Paralyzing shivers spiked up through Whitefish’s body.Whitefish was now waist deep in the dark water. During the following steps, panic arose from deep within the animal instincts that begged Whitefish to return to the shore, to pursue life, not just a good story. Eyes twitching, Whitefish ignored the pleas and tread further into the water, until Whitefish could no longer touch the rocky ocean floor. The air slowly escaped Whitefish’s lungs until the nearly lifeless body was submerged.

title: Whitefish, the Master

question: What does the story say about Whitefish's motivation to enter the ocean?

answer: Whitefish was a self-proclaimed writer comparable to the great Greek orators such as Antiphon and Lysais. He rejected society because the purpose of writing was not for recognition or petty earnings, rather for the thrill and excitement of the adventure stored in the next story, waiting to be unlocked by his genius. Whitefish was living his story as he was writing it, but he felt it was lackluster. While the solitary existence was his passion, the written word beckoned him out into the world to experience more than a dusty mansion.

He worked on several pieces of literature, ranging from full-blown novels to snippets of interior monologue. Whitefish worked on the memoir that would be finished only by the swift hands of Satan himself. This ending would come sooner than Whitefish could have thought.

critique: The answer seems to be a summary of the story, not an answer to the question.

critique: The answer is a summary of the story, not an answer to the question.

critique: The answer does not answer the question.

critique: everything after "the next story" is irrelevant

critique: The answer is irrelevant to the question.

question: What does the story say about whether Whitefish's memoir was published?

answer: No answer

critique: Whitefish did not commit suicide because his story wasn't published. He committed suicide for a good story and for future generations to read about his struggles.

GÖYGÖL (, literally “the Blue Lake”) is a natural impounded lake in Azerbaijan. It is situated at the footsteps of Murovdag, not far from Ganja.[1]

History

Due to an earthquake which hit the area on 25 September 1139, parts of the Kapaz Mount collapsed and blocked the path of the Kürəkçay River.[2] As a result of diversion of water flow, a lake with pure mountain water was created, hence the name given signifying the pureness of the water. The nearby city of Khanlar was renamed after the Göygöl Lake on 25 April 2008. The city founded as Helenendorf by first German settlers in Azerbaijan in 1819 and with considerable German minority until 1941 had been renamed to Khanlar in 1938. In 1941, German settlers were relocated by Soviet authorities to Kazakhstan and their homes were filled by Armenians by orders of Anastas Mikoyan.[3] In 1925 the lake was incorporated into the newly founded “Goy Gol State Reserve” which was superseded as Göygöl National Park in 2008.

General information

Greater Göygöl area is often split into 19 lakes, 8 of which fall into large lakes category, Maralgol, Zelilgöl, Qaragöl among them. It is situated at 1,556 meters above the sea level.[4] The complete length reaches 6,460 meters. The depth of the lake is 93 meters.[5] Due to pureness of the water, one can see underwater life clearly 8–10 meters below the surface. The lake fauna is very rich. The Göygöl Trout has evolved from the river trout since the natural creation of the lake. The Göygöl area is known for dry winters and mild to warm summers. Rainfalls range from 600 to 900 mm. There is an Azerbaijani Army corps close to Göygöl.[6] The lake is a major tourist attraction during the spring and summer seasons. In 2009, more than 4500 tourists have visited Goygol. Among the tourists, many are German nationals. In the vicinity of Göygöl, there are settlements once populated by ethnic Germans, many monuments of German culture and an old German Lutheran church built in 1854.[7]

In pop culture

Due to its beauty, the lake has been an inspiration for many novels, poems and music bands.[8][9]

PAULINE-MARIE JARICOT (22 July 1799-9 January 1862) was a French laywoman, the founder of the Society of the Propagation of the Faith and the Living Rosary Association.

Life

Jaricot was born 22 July 1799, the youngest of seven children of Antoine and Jeanne Jaricot in 19th-century Lyon, France.[1] Her father owned a silk factory in Lyon, France. Her brother, Philéas, was a missionary in Quangnam.[2] At fifteen years of age she was introduced into the social life of the city. Subsequently, a sermon on vanity made a deep impression on her.

At the age of seventeen, after a serious fall and the death of her mother, Jaricot began to lead a life of intense prayer, and on Christmas Day, 1816, took a vow of perpetual virginity. She established a union of prayer among pious servant girls, the members of which were known as the “Réparatrices du Sacré-Coeur de Jésus-Christ”.[3]

As a member of an association founded by the Fathers of the Foreign Missions of Paris, Jaricot was a pioneer of organized missionary co-operation. With the women employees in the silk factory run by her sister and brother-in-law, she resolved to help the missions with prayers and a small weekly contribution of one penny a week from each person involved.[4][5] The seed grew and other groups joined to help all missions. This eventually led to the founding of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith in 1822, dedicated to helping missionary efforts worldwide.[6] On May 3, 1922 Pope Pius XI declared the Society for the Propagation of the Faith “Pontifical”.[7]

A member of the lay Dominicans, Jaricot's spiritual director for many years was Jean-Marie Vianney.[8] In 1822, she arranged the printing and distribution of religious literature. She believed that information about the missions should be publicized. Later, the future Society would publish the _Annals_ which contained reports from various mission territories aimed at increasing interest in the Society and the missions.

Jaricot became very ill and on August 10, 1835 she was healed by Saint Philomena during a pilgrimage to Mungnano, Italy.

Around 1845 Jaricot purchased a blast furnace plant to be run as a model of Christian social reform. A building adjacent to the plant accommodated the families, and close by was a school and a chapel. She left the management to people who proved to be dishonest, and she was forced to declare bankruptcy in 1862. Having exhausted all her money, she spent the rest of her life destitute.[9] She died on January 9, 1862 in Lyon.

[St. Nizier, Lyon]

Veneration

Since 1935 the mortal remains of Jaricot lie in the Church of Saint-Nizier in Lyon.[10]

On 25 February 1963 Pope John XXIII declared Jaricot “venerable”.[11]

In a homily on 9 January 2013, at the end of the celebrations commemorating on the 150th anniversary of Jaricot's death, Cardinal Fernando Filoni, Prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples, stated,“Jaricot’s heroic virtues do not consist in a series of miraculous events, but in that fruitful fidelity to Christ, to whom she devoted herself both in good times and in ... difficult ...moments....”[12]

On 26 May 2020, Pope Francis authorised the Congregation for the Causes of Saints to promulgate a decree recognising a miracle attributed to Jaricot's intercession.[13] The path is now clear for Jaricot to be beatified.

Living Rosary Association

In 1826 Jaricot founded the Living Rosary Association.[14] The fifteen decades of the rosary were divided among fifteen associates, each of whom had to recite daily only one determined decade.[15] She expanded the organization's work to include the distribution of prayer leaflets, holy pictures, medals and rosaries. The Living Rosary Association grew rapidly in France and spread to other countries during her lifetime and for years thereafter. In 1832, Pope Gregory XVI gave canonical status to the Living Rosary Association.[16]

By the mid-20th century, however, the number of members had markedly decreased, especially in the United States. The organization was revived through the efforts of Patti and Richard Melvin of Dickinson, Texas and 28 other devotees who renewed the practice of organizing 15 persons to each pray one of the 15 Decades of the Rosary.

By the year 2014, the Living Rosary membership numbers nearly 16 million persons of all ages, with substantial numbers in Third World countries. The organization maintains an internet website at philomena.org, authored by Patti Dickinson, who is universal director of the Living Rosary. A Facebook page, “Universal Living Rosary Association,” is authored by apostolate promoter Brian J. Costello of New Roads, Louisiana.[17]
