# Marc Pourpe

**Marc Marie Edmond Armand Pourpe** (17 May 1887  2 December 1914) was a French aviation pioneer and stunt flyer. His mother was Anne-Marie Chassaigne, later known as the famous courtesan Liane de Pougy, and his father a young naval officer, Armand Pourpe. He made the first airmail flight in Egypt flying from Cairo to Khartoum. Pourpe died in World War I on a reconnaissance mission over the Somme in December 1914.

## Life

Marc Pourpe was born on 17 May 1887 in Lorient, France to the famous courtesan, Liane de Pougy, who was of Spanish and French descent. His father was Armand Pourpe, a young naval officer who later became a senior officer in the Suez Canal Company. His parents' marriage was not a happy one. His mother, then known as Anne-Marie Pourpe, had run off with Pourpe when she was only 16, and they married once she became pregnant. She later claimed in her memoirs that her new husband took her violently on their wedding night, an event which left her emotionally scarred.

When Armand Pourpe's naval career led him to a billet in Marseilles, Anne-Marie took a lover, Charles the 5th Marquis de MacMahon. Her husband found them in bed together and shot her. They divorced shortly thereafter. Anne-Marie went to Paris, leaving her infant son with his father. Armand sent his son to live with the boy's paternal grandparents, in Suez.

Young Marc Pourpe studied at Harrow in anticipation of attending Cambridge or Oxford.

In 1912, while barnstorming in Calcutta in a Blériot, Pourpe met Raoul Lufbery, whom he later hired as his mechanic. The two then began traveling together, continuing Pourpe's tour of Asia, Europe, and Africa.

Pourpe took part in an early "Aviation Week" held at in Heliopolis, near Cairo from 2 January through 12 January 1914. While there he made the first airmail flight in Egypt, flying the 1250 miles from Cairo to Khartoum from 4 January to 12 January, with stops in Luxor, Wadi Halfa, and Abu Hamed. Lufbery was Pourpe's mechanic for the trip. A special stamp was issued to commemorate the event, and air mail delivery was announced.

When World War I broke out, Pourpe joined the French Air Service as a bomber pilot, serving with Escadrille N23. A soldier 2nd class, he had flown nearly eighty hours and thirty missions, when he and the mission observer, Lt. Eugène Vauglin, died on 2 December 1914 on a reconnaissance flight over the Somme.

One account published in 1916 in the 4th edition of the illustrated *Air War* said his death was caused by an accident at the end of the flight, possibly due to the cold. Numbed by the very low temperature, Pourpe lost control of his aircraft, as he exited a cloud, before "sideslipping" and came crashing to the ground. This accords with both reports of the Escadrille N23 and the testimony of aviation volunteer Jacques Mortane who reported in December 1914 that, accustomed to colonial climates, Pourpe nonetheless took to the air in a cold mist that prevented other flyers from going out. According to Mortane, Pourpe came out of the clouds at 1200 meters completely "unbalanced".

Marc Pourpe is buried in the cemetery of Carnel, Lorient. To mark the centenary of Pourpe's death a street was named in his honor in Carnel.

In 1883, he married Lily Buckner, with whom he fathered four children.

Dumont in 1900.

In addition to his business career, Belknap served in the Kentucky State Guard, eventually rising to the rank of lieutenant colonel. In 1898, during the Spanish–American War, he served briefly in Puerto Rico prior to the end of hostilities. He was promoted to colonel before his honorable discharge in 1899.

Belknap was the Republican nominee for governor of Kentucky in the 1903 gubernatorial election. He campaigned on his business experience and opposition to policies of the incumbent governor, J. C. W. Beckham, whom Belknap lost the election to. Afterward, Belknap spent his later life involved in a variety of civil and religious organizations. In 1910, he died of pernicious anemia, a condition which is believed to have been worsened by a mysterious ailment he contracted while in Puerto Rico.

## Early life and family

Belknap was born at his parents' home in Louisville, Kentucky, on June 7, 1856. He was the youngest child of William Burke and Mary (Richardson) Belknap. Until the age of 17, he was educated in the private school of Benjamin B. Huntoon. In 1873 he and his brother, William Richardson Belknap (1849–1914), spent a year traveling in Europe. On his return, he enrolled in the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale University. He earned his degree in 1877, but spent an additional year of postgraduate study in chemistry.

Returning to Louisville in 1879, Belknap worked for his father's hardware company, W. B. Belknap and Company, for a short time before partnering with Thomas Miekle and Barry Coleman to form Thomas Miekle and Company, an agricultural implement manufacturer. He returned to Belknap and Company in 1883 as a secretary.

On June 14, 1883, Belknap married Lily Buckner, the daughter of Confederate general Simon Bolivar Buckner. The couple had four children – Gertrude, Walter Kingsbury, Lily, and Morris Jr. Lily Belknap died in 1893. After her death, Belknap constructed a stone bridge – dubbed Belknap Bridge – in Louisville's Cherokee Park in her honor.

Belknap's father died in 1889, and after incorporating his company as Belknap Hardware and Manufacturing Company, Morris Belknap became the company's vice-president, a position he held for the remainder of his life. He was the youngest person elected president of the Louisville Board of Trade, and he held that position for many years.

## Military service

In 1879, Belknap enlisted as a private in the First Infantry Regiment of the Kentucky State Guard, known as the Louisville Legion. His father-in-law was elected governor of Kentucky in 1887 and appointed Belknap to his military staff with the rank of colonel. In 1890, he was elected captain of Company A of the First Regiment in the State Guard, and in 1893, he was chosen as the unit's lieutenant colonel.

At the commencement of the Spanish–American War, governor William O'Connell Bradley called up Belknap's unit for service. He was mustered into federal service on May 13, 1898, and departed the same day, spending several weeks at Lexington, Kentucky, before arriving at Newport News, Virginia, on July 28, 1898. On August 1, general Frederick Dent Grant ordered six companies under Belknap to board the USRC *Hudson* bound for Puerto Rico. Arriving at Ponce on August 11, the men were forwarded to Mayagüez, and were ordered to follow the 11th Infantry Regiment inland as soon as transport could be secured.

After hostilities had ceased. Belknap and his men remained at Mayagüez until August 26, then returned to Ponce, reuniting with the regiment on August 29 and 30. Upon Castleman's elevation to brigadier general, Belknap was promoted to colonel and given command of the First Kentucky. The unit returned to Louisville on December 12, 1898; Belknap was honorably discharged on February 24, 1899. He saw no active service.

On July 16, 1900, Belknap married Marion S. Dumont of Plainfield, New Jersey.

## Gubernatorial campaign

At the 1903 Republican state convention, party leaders including W. Godfrey Hunter supported Belknap as the party's gubernatorial nominee. Former governor Bradley, however, supported a fellow Louisvillian, attorney Augustus E. Willson. When a pro-Willson delegation was unseated by a challenge, Willson withdrew and Bradley bolted the convention. Consequently, Belknap was chosen as the party's nominee on the first ballot. Former Democratic governor Buckner supported his son-in-law's candidacy.

Belknap touted his business management experience, contrasting it with charges that his opponent, incumbent governor J. C. W. Beckham, had mismanaged the state's eleemosynary institutions. Belknap lacked name recognition outside Louisville. He was a poor public speaker, and he was unable to make the race truly competitive. The New York Times reported, "Col. Morris B. Belknap, the Republican nominee for Governor of Kentucky, is an athlete as well as a politician and a millionaire businessman. Election day was a rowdy one throughout the state, and a judge supporting Belknap was shot by a sheriff at a polling place in Louisville. Victory went to Belknap's opponent; Beckham won the election 229,014 to 202,764, marking the first time in sixteen years that the Democrats had gained a majority of the votes cast.

## Later life

Belknap continued to be active in business, attending the International Congress of Chambers of Commerce in Liège in 1905. From 1907 to 1909, he was chairman of the Louisville Board of Parks. He was a member of several civic and religious organizations, including the Pendennis Club, the Louisville Country Club, the Salmagundi Club of Louisville, and the Warren Memorial Presbyterian Church of Louisville, where he was a deacon and chairman of the board of trustees. He was president of the Yale Alumni Association in Louisville and director of that city's YMCA.

Belknap fell ill in late 1907, and his poor health continued into mid-1908. In July 1908, he traveled to Europe in order to improve his health, but after his return in October, his condition worsened again. From January to June 1909, he was bedfast. In early April 1910, he fell into a coma from which he never awakened. He died of pernicious anemia on April 13, 1910, at Lexington, Kentucky and was buried in Cave Hill Cemetery.

# Santa Maria Maggiore, Vasto

**San Maria Maggiore** is a Roman Catholic parish church located on via Santa Maria in the historic district of Vasto, region of Abruzzi, Italy.

## History and description

Putatively, the first mention of this church is in a 5th-century letter by Pope Gregory the Great, who speaks of a church dedicated to Sant'Eleuterio, identified with this church and subservient to the diocese of Chieti. However, documentary evidence dates only to 1195 in a document from Henry VI Hohenstaufen, Holy Roman Emperor sent to Odorisio, the abbot of the Benedictine monastery of the San Giovanni in Venere Abbey in Fossacesia, confirming that abbeys possession of the church of *Sacte Marie in Guastoaymonis*. There was apparently a burst of construction in the 13th and 14th century, including rebuilding a tall bell-tower, which also served as a defensive fortification, in what was an Adriatic town prone to Saracen raids.

The church would suffer a number of environmental and human depredations. On August 1, 1566, the Ottoman admiral Piali Pasha, sacked the town and burned all the churches. Some repairs were performed, but in June 14–15, 1645, the church again burned down. Most of the present structure thus derives from after this date. The belltower was completed in 1730. Much of the decoration was subsidized by the Marquis d’Avalos, lord of Vasto.

In the church are tombs for Nicola Alfonso Viti, Bernardino Carnefresca, Venceslao Mayo, and members of the 'Avalos family: Alfonso and Diego I. The crypt holds in a glass case relics (bones and blood) of the first (or 4th) century Christian martyr, St Cesario, donated by don Cesare Michelangelo d'Avalos. His skeleton holds a silver palm leaf symbolizing his martyrdom. The attributes of a soldier, helmet and sword, are on the floor of the case beside him. Relics comprising more than one person, all putatively attributed to Cesario, are found throughout Europe.

In the *Capella della Spina* there is putatively a spine from the crown of thorns worn by Christ. This relic was donated by Pope Pius IV (1499 – 1565) to Francesco Ferdinando d’Avalos, a prominent commander and statesman in the employ of the Hapsburgs of Spain. The chapel is at the end of the right nave and was designed in 1890 by Roberto Benedetti. It was refurbished in 1921 and redecorated in 1933. The polychrome marble niche holding the reliquary was commissioned in 1647 by Diego d’Avalos.

He was born in Montreal and, as many of the prominent historical figures of his time, had a military career in the colonial regular troops. He was commissioned an ensign in May 1722, and in the same year he was given command of a post near Ashland, Wisconsin. His career was a military one with a significant amount of time spent south of New France in what is now part of the United States. His activities, which included the construction of Fort de la Rivière au Bœuf are significant in the attempts of the French to secure a sustainable foothold in the Ohio region. His military successes earned him the cross of Saint Louis but he died before learning of this honor. In 1730, he led the battle at the Siege of Little Butte des Mortes, in what is now Winnebago County, Wisconsin. He also fought in Nova Scotia in the Naval battle off Tatamagouche and Siege of Annapolis Royal (1745) during King George's War.

# Murder of Alika Ogorchukwu

On 29 July 2022, Alika Ogorchukwu, a Nigerian street vendor in Italy, was murdered.

## Background

Ogorchukwu was a 39-year worker living in Civitanova Marche, in northern Italy. Originally from Nigeria, he had lived in Italy for over a decade and began working as a street vendor after a bicycle accident left him disabled and he was unable to find other work. He was married and a father.

## Incident and investigations

On 29 July, Ogorchukwu was assaulted in broad daylight as he was working. Over the course of the following minutes, the attacker beat Ogorchukwu to death using Ogorchukwu's crutch.

On 30 July, Filippo Claudio Giuseppe Ferlazzo, a 32-year old Italian man, was arrested on charges of having murdered Ogorchukwu and having stolen Ogorchukwu's phone. Police stated that they believe Ferlazzo attacked Ogorchukwu after he had asked Ferlazzo's girlfriend to buy a handkerchief and said that they would not be investigating racial hatred as a motivator for the attack. Ferlazzo's girlfriend later told the media that she had not felt bothered by Ogorchukwu.

## Reactions

The murder provoked a number of protests against racism in Italy. The Italian Anti-Racist Coordination published an open letter denouncing the use of racist imagery in media coverage of the murder and raised concerns about systemic ableism in Italy. Human Rights Watch stated that Italian police have "historically failed to respond adequately to hate crimes" and that the country "needs to reckon with the institutional racism in its laws and policies."

The murder also had an impact on the campaign for the 2022 Italian general election, due to be held in September 2022. Several commentators raised concerns about the impact that rhetoric used by far-right parties such as Lega and Brothers of Italy had on creating a climate of racism in the country. Trade unionist Aboubakar Soumahoro stated that "some political parties are legitimising fear and hatred towards those who are different. This is a serious danger that we must fight every day."

The municipal council voted in favour of a motion to assist Ogorchukwu's family in the aftermath, including covering part of the funds for the funeral.

# Fritz Creek, Alaska

**Fritz Creek** is a census-designated place (CDP) in the Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska, United States, northeast of Homer. At the 2020 census the population was 2,248, up from 1,932 in 2010.

## Fritz Creek Community center and general store

In 1954, two acres of private land were designated by a local family for a Fritz Creek Civic and Social Center, intended to be an alternative to the rowdy bar scene in nearby Homer. A large stockade-style log building was built to house the center. Community events such as square dances were held in the building for years. The center was damaged by the 1964 Alaska earthquake and required major repairs to the foundation. Over time the building became less of a community center and was largely rented out for events.

In 1982 the property was sold and the building was converted into a general store and gas station, with a post office being added in 1983. Hot food and a small dining area were added later and the store returned to being something of a gathering spot for the surrounding community. Eventually a liqour store was added as well. In 2019, the store was told by the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation that Stormy, a cat that had lived in the store for years, was in violation of state law and would need to be removed. Stormy was rehomed with a local resident. The building changed hands several more times before being badly damaged in a fire in July 2023. The cause of the fire is not known.

## Geography

Fritz Creek is located at 59°43′54″N 151°15′02″W / 59.731632°N 151.250527°W / 59.731632; -151.250527, covering an area 6 to 20 miles (10 to 32 km) northeast of Homer. It sits on the north side of Kachemak Bay and is bordered to the southwest by the city of Kachemak, to the west by the Diamond Ridge CDP, and to the northeast by the Fox River CDP.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 54.0 square miles (139.9 km2), all of it recorded as land.

Climbing from sea level to over 1,500 feet (460 m), the community offers fantastic views of the Kenai Mountains and Kachemak Bay.

# Santa Maria Maggiore della Pietrasanta

The church of **Santa Maria Maggiore della Pietrasanta** is a Roman Catholic religious edifice located on Via Tribunali in central Naples, Italy.

## History

Tradition holds the church was erected in 533 atop the ruins of a Temple of Diana; construction was instigated by the Bishop Pomponio of Naples, a relative of Pope John II. A church at the site, dedicated to Santa Maria Maggiore, was consecrated in 535. It was soon titled a minor basilica church.

By 1654, the old church was threatening collapse, and reconstruction was pursued under the designs of Cosimo Fanzago, which led to the domed church with a Greek cross layout we see today. Work was soon interrupted due to lack of funds. There is evidence of a paleochristian basilica in the crypt, and the finding of an old stone carved with a cross gave the church part of its name. The bell tower was constructed in the 11th century.

To the left of the entrance and obscuring the left lower facade, is in part, the Renaissance chapel: Capella Pontano, erected in 1492 by Giovanni Pontano, the Secretary to Ferdinand I of Aragon. To the right of the church and some meters distant is the medieval bell tower.

An inventory of the church in 1845 said the first chapel on the right had a dilapidated canvas depicting the *Virgin and Sts Peter and Paul* by Marco di Pino and a main altarpiece depicting a *Virgin of the Annunciation* by Giuseppe Bonito. The next chapel also had a canvas depicting a *Guardian Angel* by Bonito as well as a canvas by Vaccaro depicting a *Madonna della Grazie, Bishop Pomponio, and St Anthony*. Near the main altar, a chapel had a *Archangel Raphael and Tobias* by Bonito. The main chapel had altarpieces by Bonito (*Choir of Angels*) and by followers of Luca Giordano (*St Michael Archangel*). The last chapel on left had a *Holy Family* by Farelli. Adjacent to the church, the chapel of the Holy Sacrament had an altarpiece by Aniella di Rosa.

# Paul Marioni

**Paul Marioni** (b. 1941 Cincinnati, Ohio) is an American artist who works in the medium of glass.

## Biography

Marioni graduated from the University of Cincinnati in 1967 with a degree in philosophy. He became a filmmaker, then started working with glass when he became interested in light, reflection, refraction, and expression. One of the founders of the studio-glass movement, Marioni is a Fellow of the American Craft Council and has received three fellowships from the National Endowment of the Arts. He has taught at Penland School of Crafts and Pilchuck Glass School (1974–1988).

He has two children, Marina and Dante, both of whom are artists. Marina is a jewelry maker and Dante is a glassblower. In 1998, Marioni and his son presented a feature exhibition of their glass at the Fresno Art Museum in California.

## About his work

Marioni's work is held by several museums, including the Museum of Arts & Design, The Corning Museum of Glass, the Museum of Glass, and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.

His work is about human nature and is often inspired by his dreams. Known as an innovator in the glass world, Marioni pushes his techniques to their limits, regularly redefining what is possible to achieve with the medium. "I work with glass for its distinct ability to capture and manipulate light. While my techniques are often inventive, they are only in service of the image," says Paul.


title: Murder of Alisha Heinrich

abstract: Alisha Ann Heinrich, previously known as "Baby Jane" and "Delta Dawn", was a formerly unidentified American child murder victim whose body was found in Moss Point, Mississippi, in December 1982. The child — aged approximately 18 months — was partially smothered before she was thrown alive from the eastbound Interstate 10 bridge into the Escatawpa River, where she ultimately drowned. Her body was recovered between 36 and 48 hours after her death. On December 4, 2020, investigators announced that Heinrich had been identified via genetic genealogy research. Heinrich and her mother, 23-year-old Gwendolyn Mae Clemons, had been missing since approximately November 24, 1982, from Kansas City, Missouri. Clemons is believed to have been a distressed woman seen carrying an infant on December 3, 1982, close to the location where Heinrich's body was discovered. Although a witness reported seeing an adult female's body in the same river, no further remains were ever recovered; Clemons is still considered a missing person. Prior to her identification, Heinrich was known as both "Delta Dawn" and "Baby Jane" due to her sex, her age, and the fact her body was discovered at daybreak close to a delta of the Escatawpa River.

# Murder of Alisha Heinrich

**Alisha Ann Heinrich**, previously known as **"Baby Jane"** and **"Delta Dawn"**, was a formerly unidentified American child murder victim whose body was found in Moss Point, Mississippi, in December 1982. The child — aged approximately 18 months — was partially smothered before she was thrown alive from the eastbound Interstate 10 bridge into the Escatawpa River, where she ultimately drowned. Her body was recovered between 36 and 48 hours after her death.

On December 4, 2020, investigators announced that Heinrich had been identified via genetic genealogy research. Heinrich and her mother, 23-year-old Gwendolyn Mae Clemons, had been missing since approximately November 24, 1982, from Kansas City, Missouri. Clemons is believed to have been a distressed woman seen carrying an infant on December 3, 1982, close to the location where Heinrich's body was discovered. Although a witness reported seeing an adult female's body in the same river, no further remains were ever recovered; Clemons is still considered a missing person.

Prior to her identification, Heinrich was known as both "Delta Dawn" and "Baby Jane" due to her sex, her age, and the fact her body was discovered at daybreak close to a delta of the Escatawpa River.

## Interstate 10 bridge

According to numerous eyewitnesses, in the early hours of December 3, 1982 a female toddler was seen in the area of Moss Point, Mississippi, in the company of a young adult female presumed to have been her mother and who had been carrying this toddler in her arms. These sightings had occurred on both Mississippi State Highway 63 and, later, the National Interstate 10, close to the state border of Alabama. The woman carrying this child had been wearing a blue plaid shirt and blue jeans, and was last seen walking west along Interstate 10, close to the truck scales at the Alabama-Mississippi border sometime between midnight and one o'clock in the morning of December 3. Reportedly, this woman had been in an acute state of distress, but had ardently refused any offers of help from passing vehicles. These eyewitness reports subsequently given to investigators would further be corroborated by accounts from a woman who had been monitoring CB radio conversations between truck drivers early in the morning of December 3, and who stated to investigators numerous truck drivers had been raising what she termed a "boatload of hell" regarding an obviously distressed woman walking along Interstate 10 with a barefoot, coatless female toddler in her arms and who had repeatedly refused any offers of assistance from passing vehicles. It is believed that the toddler in this woman's company may have been the victim subsequently recovered from the river.

### Discovery

Within two days of these sightings, at approximately 7:00 a.m. on December 5, a truck driver sighted the body of an adult female, clothed in a blue plaid shirt, floating face-down close to a bridge spanning the Escatawpa River along Interstate 10. This truck driver immediately reported his discovery to the Jackson County Sheriff's Office, and a sheriff's deputy immediately responded to the scene; finding no body floating in the general area of the river in which the body had been sighted, this deputy decided to continue the search, expanding the geographical search radius of the river as he did so. Shortly thereafter, he discovered the body of a small blond-haired child lying partially submerged and face up in the weeds close to the bridge. Authorities quickly determined the child had been thrown from the bridge into the general area where her body was subsequently found, and that this child's body was unlikely to have been that sighted by the truck driver, as the section of the Escatawpa River where her body was discovered had been heavily infested with weeds, thus making a sighting of any body in this section of the water very difficult for passing motorists.

Following the discovery of the child's body, the general vicinity of the Escatawpa River where the truck driver had sighted the body of the adult female was dragged in the hopes of also retrieving her body, although these efforts proved unsuccessful. These searches were conducted with the aid of helicopters and boats, although the body of the woman initially sighted within the Escatawpa River has never been found. However, if the body seen floating in the river on December 5 was not hers, she has never been located alive, or presented herself to authorities.

Although the underwater search unit failed to locate the body of the adult woman, this search unit did locate the largely skeletal remains of a young African-American male on December 8. His body was located beneath the eastbound I-10 bridge approximately 60 yards from the scene of the earlier discovery of the child's body. Investigators determined this individual had also been thrown over the I-10 bridge, although this victim had lain undiscovered for a minimum of six months, and had been shot to death, thus making his death extremely unlikely to be connected to the case. This man was given the name of **Moss Point John Doe** by investigators prior to his 2022 identification.

## Physical examination

An autopsy performed on the child's body revealed that someone had attempted to smother her before she had entered the river, although the child had still been alive when she had entered the water, having inhaled murky water from the river into her lungs, thus indicating she had ultimately died of drowning. The official cause of death would be certified as drowning due to her having inhaled water upon impacting the surface of the river. Investigators would also conclude she had been intentionally deposited into the river from the eastbound I-10 bridge, very likely having been thrown into the river by the woman seen carrying her two days prior to her discovery (with this woman possibly believing the child had died via the act of smothering).

In life, Delta Dawn had been a healthy toddler, with her age estimated to have been between the ages of one and two years old, most likely being between 18 months and two years of age. Twelve of her milk teeth had erupted at the time of her death, which influenced this age estimation. The girl was Caucasian, with curly strawberry-blond hair, and has been described as being markedly beautiful in appearance. Because the child's body had lain in the river for approximately 36 to 48 hours prior to her discovery, her eyes had clouded to such a degree that determining their precise color was very difficult, although it is believed they had been either blue or brown. Despite the elemental damage to the eyes, her face was described as being in a "recognizable" condition. She was around two feet six inches in height, weighed around 25 pounds and although no food was found in her stomach, she showed no signs of having been malnourished. The girl wore a pink and white Cradle Togs checkered dress, decorated with three flowers on its front, along with a diaper.

### Funeral

The funeral of this then-unidentified child (who would become known as both "Delta Dawn" and "Baby Jane" to both the public and the media) was primarily funded by a local deputy named Virgil Moore who, along with his wife, Mary Ann, initiated a fundraising and donations appeal via local businesses and funeral homes to ensure the child received a Christian funeral, with Mary Ann Moore as the individual who coined the name "Baby Jane," having been aghast at the thought of the child being simply buried as a Jane Doe.

Delta Dawn was buried in the Jackson County Cemetery following an hour-long service conducted at the Bethel Assembly Church in Pascagoula. This service was conducted within weeks of the child's discovery, after all efforts to locate any relatives had proven fruitless. The service itself was attended by approximately 200 people, with four police officers serving as pallbearers. The primary means of paying for and conducting the child's funeral were donations by various local businesses and their employees, and Delta Dawn was buried beneath a flat granite marker with a ceramic vase. Her grave bears the inscriptions "Baby Jane" and "Known Only To God".

On the 25th anniversary of the funeral of Delta Dawn, a memorial service in her honor was held at the Bethel Assembly Church. This memorial service was organized by two Alabama women named Marjorie Brinker and Lynn Reuss, who have both stated they could not comprehend "why someone would throw a baby into the river like that."

> "She belongs to somebody. And, if she's not remembered, it's not going to be put out anymore. It's just ... time is going to pass on by. And this way here, if we keep her in the light, somebody may just come forward."

Paul Murphy; Deputy sheriff on duty at the time of the recovery of the body of Delta Dawn from the Escatawpa River, 2007.

## Investigation

Extensive searches were conducted to find the body of the woman seen floating face-down within the Escatawpa River on December 5; equal efforts have been made to locate and/or identify the acutely distressed woman seen walking along Interstate 10 carrying a barefooted child in her arms on December 3, should the body sighted by the truck driver actually not have been hers. All efforts proved fruitless. Several scenarios surrounding the death of Delta Dawn have been theorized, with the most common contemporary assertion being that the woman seen with the toddler was the child's mother, who had either accidentally or intentionally caused the child's death before subsequently committing suicide.

Following the discovery of Delta Dawn, newspapers throughout the country published stories of the discovery of the child's body, and the sightings on Interstate 10 two days previously. These stories often featured contemporary forensic facial reconstructions of how the child had most likely appeared in life. All initial efforts proved unsuccessful with ascertaining the identity of Delta Dawn via this technique. A contemporary report of a woman who informed sheriff's deputies that she had "given away" her child to a group of men was originally connected to the case by the investigating officers, although these investigators rapidly determined that the subject requesting assistance had a male child, thus enabling investigators to quickly determine this report as being irrelevant to this case.

In 2009, the body of Delta Dawn was exhumed in order that investigators could obtain a DNA sample from her body which could be entered into both the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System and the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children databases for comparison with nationwide unsolved murders and missing person reports. Initially, no DNA match with Delta Dawn or the individual believed to have been her mother was obtained.

With advances in technology, several forensic facial reconstructions of the child were created in the years following the discovery of her body in ongoing efforts to identify her. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children also released two illustrations depicting potential likenesses as to how Delta Dawn may have physically appeared in her life; other forensic artists also produced their own renderings in efforts to discover her identity.

## Identification

On December 4, 2020, Jackson County Sheriff's Office announced the identification of Delta Dawn as 18-month-old Alisha Ann Heinrich of Joplin, Missouri. Her identity was confirmed via DNA sequencing and genetic genealogy, with the child's DNA linked to family members in Missouri, where her mother, Gwendolyn Mae Clemons, had previously lived. The process of generating a profile suitable for uploading into a public genealogy database was performed by a lab operated by Othram Inc.; the research was conducted by forensic genealogists under Redgrave Research Forensic Services.

Gwendolyn Clemons had recently divorced from the father of her daughter. She, her daughter, and an unnamed boyfriend had reportedly disappeared "on or around" November 24, 1982, from the family's residence in Kansas City, Missouri. The intent of their departure was to relocate to the state of Florida, with Clemons informing her relatives of her intentions to start life anew in this state. The boyfriend later returned to Missouri alone. This man, now deceased, has been described as both a "person of interest" and a suspect in various media reports.

The circumstances surrounding Alisha's death, and the simultaneous disappearance of her mother, remain under active investigation by the Jackson County Sheriff's department. Investigators remain uncertain as to Clemons' ultimate fate. At a press conference held on December 4, 2020, Sheriff Mike Ezell informed reporters: "We do not know if she is dead or alive at this point. We're assuming the worst, but we don't know that for sure."

Prior to the Jackson County Sheriff's Department's formal announcement of the identity of Delta Dawn as Alisha Ann Heinrich, the previously unknown woman accompanying the child upon the eastbound Interstate 10 bridge was theorized to have been responsible for her death in a suspected murder-suicide, although this theory is now in doubt.

# Fritz Cronman

**Fritz Cronman** (c. 1640 - c. 1680) was a Major for the Swedish Empire in the late 17th century, and the Swedish diplomat to the Tsardom of Russia from 1668 to 1669. His extant diary and letters contain detailed information on the court of Ivan V of Russia.

## Biography

He was born in Swedish Livonia to Hans Detterman Croman. He participated in the border commission with Russia in Keksholm, but the negotiations ended when the Russian commissioners walked out on the talks. On 26 September 1668 he was appointed as the Swedish diplomat to the Tsardom of Russia under Ivan V of Russia. On 8 October 1668 he sailed to Finland and then traveled overland to Narva. On 10 November 1668 he arrived at the Russian border at Orlina, where he was escorted to Novgorod. In his letter from Novgorod to the Swedish government he writes: "Russians inevitably must be impelled to such unusual *höflighetsbetygelser* either under pressure from the enemy side or from fear of his friends." He arrived in Moscow on 28 December 1668. His Swedish entourage consisted of 35 people. While in Russia, he made a copy of the Godunov map, one of two extant copies, the original by Petr Ivanovich Godunov having not survived. He married Christina Ottiliana Börner and had a daughter, Charlotta Cronman, who married Henrik Gotthard von Buddenbrock (1648-1727). Charlotta and Henrick had as their son, Henrik Magnus Buddenbrock.

title: Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land

abstract: Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land is a 2004 American documentary film directed by Sut Jhally and Bathsheba Ratzkoff which—according to the film's official website—"provides a striking comparison of U.S. and international media coverage of the crisis in the Middle East, zeroing in on how structural distortions in U.S. coverage have reinforced false perceptions of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict" and which "analyzes and explains how—through the use of language, framing and context—the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza remains hidden in the news media". The film argues that the influence of pro-Israel media watchdog groups, such as CAMERA and Honest Reporting, has led to distorted and pro-Israel media reports. It features Noam Chomsky, Robert Jensen, Hanan Ashrawi, Sam Husseini, and Robert Fisk, among others. In its response to the movie, the Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) of San Francisco, a Jewish communal advocacy organization, criticized the film for not discussing the influence of "the numerous pro‐Palestinian media watchdog groups, including FAIR, whose spokesperson played a prominent role in the film". A review in The New York Times by Ned Martel found that the film "largely ignores Palestinian leadership, which has surely played a part in the conflict's broken vows and broken hearts. And such a lack of dispassion weakens the one-sided film's bold and detailed argument".

# Moosbach (Mangfall)

## Course

**Moosbach** is a river of Bavaria, Germany. It is the natural outflow of the Seehamer See, and flows into the Mangfall near Valley. The Moosbach has its origin at the west end of Lake Seehamer since the damming between the years 1911 and 1913, north of Kleinseeham. The stream runs along the edge of a high moor to Bruck, then continues over grassland north of Wattersdorf to the Bundesautobahn 8. After crossing it, the Moosbach continues in a northern direction until it flows into the Leitzachtal north of Fentbach. The Moosbach merges as a right tributary into the Mangfall south of Valley. In the estuary area lies the Celtic Fentbach-Schanze. The stream is 7.31 kilometers long with a catchment area of 8.08 km².

# Peace... Like a River

***Peace... Like a River*** is the thirteenth studio album by American rock band Gov't Mule, released through Fantasy Records on June 16, 2023.

## Reception

Editors at AllMusic rated this album 3.5 out of 5 stars, with critic Thom Jurek writing that this release sounds completely different to the band's previous effort *Heavy Load Blues*, but acts as a complement to it, calling this album "a labyrinthine trek through original songs that nod at the band's classic rock influences". In *Glide Magazine*, Doug Collette notes diverse musical influences, such as power trio Cream and the complex production of The Beatles. Hugh Fielder of *Louder Sound* rated this album 4 out of 5 stars, emphasizing the guitar work and writing that "the guitar riff on the opening 'Same as It Ever Was' is perhaps the most melodic that Warren Haynes has come up with". Michael Elliott of *No Depression* notes the musical influences displayed on this release, such as Led Zeppelin and Sly & the Family Stone, and recommends the album as well as the bonus EP on the compact disc edition, *Time of the Signs*. Rob Smith of Ultimate Classic Rock calls this "a welcome addition" to the band's discography.

title: Pay 'n Pak

abstract: Pay 'n Pak was a home improvement chain that was based out of Kent, Washington. Pay 'n Pak began in 1962 and was founded by Stan Thurman, an electric and plumbing supply retailer from Longview, Washington. In 1969, Pay 'n Pak merged with Eagle Electric & Plumbing, a company run by Thurman protégé David Heerensperger. Shortly thereafter, Stan Thurman was voted out and Heerensperger became the chairman of the company until 1989 when he left to form Eagle Hardware & Garden. At the time of a hostile corporate raid attempt in 1987, Pay 'n Pak had 112 stores in the Western United States. The original flagship store in Kent was called Pay 'n Pak Mall. It featured a departmentalized hardware store broken up into separate stores. It also contained a coffee shop as well. By the 1980s a larger store was built next to the mall which carried the same format as the other stores had and the mall was sold. After bankruptcy in 1991, Thurman Industries bought four Pay 'n Pak stores: those located in Butte, Montana, Billings, Montana, Moses Lake, Washington, and Wenatchee, Washington. They were operated as Thurman Pay 'N Pak home centers until March 2003 when Thurman Industries liquidated the stores and closed them down. Ernst took over the Kent store and the distribution center. Pay 'n Pak was also a sponsor of an unlimited hydroplane racing team from the late 1960s to the early 1980s and won the points championship from 1973-1975. They also sponsored the first winning turbine powered hydroplane from 1980 to 1983. The boat crashed in 1980. It would be the last boat that would carry the Pay 'n Pak name.
