On Wednesday, September 28, 2022, at the University of Mississippi’s Gertrude C. Ford Center, Mr. James Meredith was recognized by both that educational institution and the U.S. Marshals Service. With the 60th anniversary of the integration of the University approaching on October 1, the institutional ceremony, entitled “The Mission Continues-Building Upon the Legacy,” gave USMS Director Ronald L. Davis the perfect opportunity to award Meredith one of highest honors he could, and made him an Honorary Deputy U.S. Marshal. In the history of the U.S. Marshals Service only a handful of people have ever received this honor.
Of the approximately 350 deputy U.S. marshals and deputized personnel that ensured the registration and safety of Mr. Meredith during this time, few are living today. Retired Deputy U.S. Marshal Herschel Garner, the youngest of the cadre of deputies present during the riots that preceded registration, attended the ceremony representing all of them.
This historical event continues the partnership between the USMS and the University of Mississippi in recognizing the importance of educational equality and the role of our deputies in bringing this about. While it truly was a battle that resulted in Mr. Meredith attending and graduating from the school of his choice, the decade celebrations from 2002 to 2022 remain important moments in their own right.

Orbiter Atlantis lifted off from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 11:29 a.m. EDT, July 8, 2011, to begin the STS-135 mission. This was the final launch in the Space Shuttle Program.
Though the launch is finished, work is just beginning for staff at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center more than 800 miles away from the launch pad, just outside Washington, D.C., in Greenbelt, Md.
Goddard employees will work around-the-clock to guarantee the four astronauts aboard Atlantis have constant, uninterrupted lines of communication with Mission Control. The careful dance of satellite relays necessary to keep channels open requires global coordination, but it all comes together in Goddard’s Network Integration Center. Goddard has fulfilled this communication role in literally all of NASA’s manned space flights: We all know the words, “One small step for (a) man; one giant leap for mankind,” but no one on Earth would have heard Neil Armstrong say them on July 21, 1969, if not for Goddard.
The space shuttle has been vital in humanity’s ability to reach beyond Earth’s horizon. The 135 orbiter flights have not merely taken humans to space: They have carried satellites, telescopes, science experiments and more. Among Atlantis’s final contributions is the Robotic Refueling Mission, developed at Goddard. Atlantis will bring this module to the International Space Station, where it will provide key support in maintaining future spacecrafts for years to come. STS-135 astronauts traveled to Goddard to complete special training for these robotics, a major component of the final shuttle mission. RRM is one of dozens of Goddard payloads to travel aboard orbiters into space throughout the 30-year flight history of the Shuttle Program.
NASA Goddard Space Flight Center enables NASA’s mission through four scientific endeavors: Earth Science, Heliophysics, Solar System Exploration, and Astrophysics. Goddard plays a leading role in NASA’s accomplishments by contributing compelling scientific knowledge to advance the Agency’s mission.

I love it when my titles just come to me. These are, indeed, the same exact seeds I was playing with last year. I guess they won't sprout on my desk at work? :)

A quick guide and insight into project integration management

A build purely based on the concept of integrating Hero Factory feet as the sides of a spaceship cockpit. Designed digitally in a day, refined a day later and built physically a few weeks after.
Because I didn't have a color scheme in mind yet I decided to see if I could use this for the ongoing Eurobricks Classic Space Contest. Seeing as the canopy piece isn't available in any of the classic colors beside trans-green, the choice what subtheme to pick was a quick one. According to the rules, no colors beside black, light bluish grey, red, trans-(dark-)green and white were used with the exception of the minifigure and two dark bluish grey 1x2 plates with ball joints because they're essential for the functionality but don't come in any other color.
Another requirement for contest entries was to fit a smaller vehicle inside your main model. Utilizing just about every corner of unfilled space left I managed to cram in a decently-sized scooter scout, split into three sections and stored in empty spots in the engine compartments.
The craft also features two highly posable wings/prongs equipped with two laser cannons each. They can be moved in and out as well as slightly angled up and down.
After finishing the design I also realized I basically created my first Vic Viper, so that's neat! The craft unintentionally adheres to all the requirements to be one.

Workers gather outside the Celanese textile plant near Cumberland, Maryland August 7, 1939 during a second plant-wide strike by nearly 10,000 workers.
Since gaining recognition after a strike in 1936, workers engaged in a series of skirmishes with management who at times refused and at other times delayed engaging in contractually required negotiations over working conditions in each department.
This resulted in a series of departmental sit-down strikes at the plant from 1936-39.
The 1939 strike cemented the union’s position, gaining better wages and working conditions and resulting in the election of communist activist George A. Meyers to the president of Textile Workers of America Local 1874 at the plant.
Meyers would go on to become president of the local union and, in 1941, president of the Maryland and District of Columbia Industrial Union Council of the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO).
Meyers joined the Communist Party during the fight to organize the union at Celanese and as president of the MD-DC CIO, led the fight to integrate basic industry—overseeing the successful efforts to integrate the Celanese and Kelly-Springfield plants in Cumberland, Glen L. Martin aircraft factory in Middle River and the Bethlehem-Fairfield shipyard in Baltimore.
Efforts throughout World War II by the CIO to desegregate jobs within the Bureau of Engraving in federal government and the Capital Transit Company in Washington, D.C. were waged in earnest but were ultimately less successful. The CIO also played a key role in the fight against police brutality in the District of Columbia in 1941.
After World War II, the onset of the cold war led to the expulsion of Communist Party members from most unions, including the Textile Workers.
Meyers went to jail for 3 ½ years for his membership in the Communist Party in the 1950s but went on to head the Party’s labor activities until his death in 1999.
The Celanese plant at its peak employed 13,000 workers producing materials made from synthetic fiber and closed in 1983.

While many angiosperms (flowering plants) have blossoms with both the staminate and pistillate parts present, some are monoecious instead, with separate female and male flowers on the same plant. Still others are diocecious—single-sexed blooms are borne on separate plants.
This species, Wood Nettle (Laportea canadensis) is native to the eastern half of North America. And it's a good example of the monoecious type. The white-tepaled panicles lower on the stem are the staminate; the pistillate rise up and out of view at the top.
Some years ago, while I was introducing a tour group to a particularly lovely bottomland forest in Minnesota, a young participant clad in shorts and a T-shirt ran into the middle of a large community of Wood Nettles some distance off the path. I think he was trying to play hide-and-seek with his parents. At any rate, his cover was soon blown, as the hefty subcutaneous dose of formic acid he'd received started to take effect. I remember hearing a very loud yeeeeoooowwwww.
To brush against the leaves of just a single plant can be distinctly unpleasant. Like its opposite-leaved cousin the Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica), Wood Nettle is beweaponed with tiny stiletto-like hairs filled with the same kind of acid used by ants.
Incidentally, you should be able figure out the flower-gender arrangement of the Stinging Nettle from its taxonomic name. In this case, knowledge of Latin isn't really necessary.

Ulaanbaatar - the capital city of Mongolia, has undergone rapid expansion due to the high-levels of rural-to-urban migration. In-migrants have been settling in Ger areas which have developed on Ulaanbaatar city's periphery to accommodate population growth that has exceeded the capacity planned urban core area. The factors behind in-migration in recent years include poor incomes in the countryside, the Dzuds (extremely cold winter occurrences) of 1999-2010 which resulted in the loss of livestock - the main source of income in the countryside, and the Supreme Court decision of 2003 that granted citizens the right to the "freedom of movement" within Mongolia. The in-migrants have settled in the Ger-areas located outside the conventional built-up area of the city with predominantly traditional Ger (felt-tent) housing and low-levels of infrastructure and service provision.
