Rock gypsum from the Devonian of Ohio, USA.
Sedimentary rocks form by the solidification of loose sediments. Loose sediments become hard rocks by the processes of deposition, burial, compaction, dewatering, and cementation.
There are three categories of sedimentary rocks:
1) Siliciclastic sedimentary rocks form by the solidification of sediments produced by weathering & erosion of any previously existing rocks.
2) Biogenic sedimentary rocks form by the solidification of sediments that were once-living organisms (plants, animals, micro-organisms).
3) Chemical sedimentary rocks form by the solidification of sediments formed by inorganic chemical reactions. Most sedimentary rocks have a clastic texture, but some are crystalline.
Rock gypsum (also known as gyprock) is a chemical sedimentary rock. It is an example of an evaporite - it forms by the evaporation of water (usually seawater) and the precipitation of dissolved minerals. Rock salt & rock gypsum often occur together in evaporitic successions. Rock gypsum is composed of the mineral gypsum (CaSO4·2H2O - hydrous calcium sulfate). Heating of gypsum or rock gypsum drives off the water, leaving only calcium sulfate behind (the mineral anhydrite). Adding water to anhydrite results in the formation of gypsum again.
Rock gypsum, unlike rock salt, does not have a salty taste, and is softer (H = 2) - it can be scratched with a fingernail. Rock gypsum’s color is often a mottled whitish-light grayish-light brownish. It is usually microcrystalline and powdery looking (it’s much finer-grained than typical rock salt deposits). Rock gypsum superficially resembles chalk. Chalk is calcitic, and so will bubble in acid - rock gypsum does not bubble in acid. Rock gypsum samples vary from extremely friable to moderately solid.

Fluorite from Ohio, USA. (Joseph Vasichko collection)
A mineral is a naturally-occurring, solid, inorganic, crystalline substance having a fairly definite chemical composition and having fairly definite physical properties. At its simplest, a mineral is a naturally-occurring solid chemical. Currently, there are about 5400 named and described minerals - about 200 of them are common and about 20 of them are very common. Mineral classification is based on anion chemistry. Major categories of minerals are: elements, sulfides, oxides, halides, carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, and silicates.
The halides are the "salt minerals", and have one or more of the following anions: Cl-, F-, I-, Br-.
Fluorite is a calcium fluoride mineral (CaF2). The most diagnostic physical property of fluorite is its hardness (H≡4). Fluorite typically forms cubic crystals and, when broken, displays four cleavage planes (also quite diagnostic). When broken under controlled conditions, the broken pieces of fluorite form double pyramids. Fluorite is a good example of a mineral that can be any color. Common fluorite colors include clear, purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, and brown. The stereotypical color for fluorite is purple. Purple is the color fluorite "should be". A mineral collector doesn't have fluorite unless it's a purple fluorite (!).
Fluorite occurs in association with some active volcanoes. HF emitted from volcanoes can react with Ca-bearing rocks to form fluorite crystals. Many hydrothermal veins contain fluorite. Much fluorite also occurs in the southern Illinois area (Mississippi Valley-type deposits).
Geologic context: vug-filling fluorite crystals in carbonate rock (found in September 2016) of the Detroit River Group or Dundee Limestone (Lower to Middle Devonian)
Locality: Stoneco Incorporated's Auglaize Quarry, southwest of the town of Junction, northeastern Paulding County, northwestern Ohio, USA

The dust cloud clears. Professor Paulding Leftewicz, Galena Graystone (the Ghost Slayer from Schenectady), and Elwood E. Logansmeyer (thank you very much) stand in awe as they see what was left of the Ghost Train. They had expected the Grand Wizard of Western Wellingham to have vaporized that ghostly engine into bits and pieces. Instead, he transformed it into a friendly engine, one that could be used as a decoration in the town of Timorous’ Christmas display.
“Great job, Wizard,” the trio chimed in unison. “Thank you for taking care of this for us. We don’t know what we would have done without you.”
“I know exactly what you would have done without me,” the Wizard said sarcastically. “You would have used that dynamite and blown this thing to smithereens. I saved you and the residents of this nervous town a lot of clean up work. Now, I’m going back to my cottage and getting my sleep. It’s going to be a long day tomorrow.” The Wizard turned abruptly and walked away.
The Trio stood quietly still for a moment, waiting for the Wizard to get out of earshot. Galena spoke first, breaking the uneasy tension, “I guess we’re done here, too, right guys?”
“No!” both the Professor and Elwood exclaimed. “We get to join the townspeople for the festival today! Let’s get this thing back into town, go and get ready for the party, and have some fun.”

Gift of Edward D. Adams, 1904
Commissioned in honor of Edward Dean Adams, chairman of the board of the American Cotton Oil Company, this bejeweled and enameled gold vase was designed to resemble the cotton plant. The overall form and coloration emulate those of the bell-shaped cotton flower, and the rock-crystal cover represents the white boll. Upon the completion of the vase, Tiffany & Co. proudly produced a booklet detailing the process of its creation.

Paul's parents, never mind his grandparents, would no more recognise this sylvan setting than the dark side of the moon.
As recently as the late 1960s this would have been a barren industrial wasteland.

In the larger, urban communities during the Great Depression, the crime rate skyrocketed with the presence of gangsters and mobs. In rural communities, however, the crimes were committed on a much smaller scale. A huge problem for farmers and crop growers was stealing. People would go out in the middle of the night and go in the fields and steal the farmer’s crops. They would steal such things as watermelons, corn, wheat, etc. Illegal fishing was a small but prominent crime committed during the Great Depression as well. People would not have the money to make or buy proper fishing reels so they would illegally fish with their hands. This was not means for jail time like stealing was, but it did require a fine. Most people would end up going to jail because they could not pay their fine. Also during the Great Depression the laws of prohibition played a huge role in crime. And this not only affected the larger and urban areas, it affected rural communities as well. On rare occasion, someone from a small town would get caught trying to smuggle alcohol from a larger town. Because of the economic depression, people felt as if they would have no way to survive in certain areas without committing a crime to get what they wanted.

Paulding is a village in and the county seat of Paulding County, Ohio, United States. It is located predominantly in Paulding Township. The population was 3,595 at the 2000 census. Paulding was a planned community, founded in 1848 at the center of the county, and named after the county by speculators who expected to profit by moving the county seat. In 1851, the county seat was moved from Charloe, which had been the county seat for a decade; prior to that, court was held at Rochester.
The town square is devoted to the courthouse, an orange brick structure surrounded by trees upon a spacious lawn. In the centennial year of 1876, the county commissioners determined to build a new courthouse, and visited many courthouses, finally deciding to erect a duplicate of the courthouse in Adrian, Michigan at a cost of $40,000. The courthouse was finished in 1886.
Paulding is largely a bedroom community.

This is a small part of an Ohio wind farm we saw earlier this month. After visiting with my mother in Toledo, we drove through some of the places in NW Ohio whose names, at least, are familiar to me from my childhood, growing up near Lima. We went SW from Toledo through Defiance, Paulding, and Van Wert counties before heading to Lima for the night. Driving US 127 in Paulding and Van Wert counties, we came upon more of the huge, new windmills than I have seen in one place so far. This Paulding County shot shows just 11, but an April 2011 newspaper piece said two different ventures were erecting a total of 350 windmills in the two counties; it also stated that the towers in four sections, plus the blades (which are 311.7 feet above the ground) and that more than one tower per day can be put in place when weather is favorable. Best when viewed in the light box.

Phacops rana crassituberculata Stumm, 1953 - fossil trilobite from the Devonian of Ohio, USA. (Dave Mielke collection; temporary public display, Ohio Geological Survey, Columbus, Ohio, USA)
This fossil is also known as Eldredgeops rana crassituberculata.
Trilobites are extinct marine arthropods. They first appear in Lower Cambrian rocks and the entire group went extinct at the end of the Permian. Trilobites had a calcitic exoskeleton and nonmineralizing parts underneath (legs, gills, gut, etc.). The calcite skeleton is most commonly preserved in the fossil record, although soft-part preservation is known in some trilobites (Ex: Burgess Shale and Hunsruck Slate). Trilobites had a head (cephalon), a body of many segments (thorax), and a tail (pygidium). Molts and carcasses usually fell apart quickly - most trilobite fossils are isolated parts of the head (cranidium and free cheeks), individual thoracic segments, or isolated pygidia. The name "trilobite" was introduced in 1771 by Johann Ernst Immanuel Walch and refers to the tripartite division of the trilobite body - it has a central axial lobe that runs longitudinally from the head to the tail, plus two side lobes (pleural lobes).
Seen here is a famous trilobite whose remains are relatively common in the Middle Devonian-aged Silica Formation of northeastern Ohio. This is Phacops rana crassituberculata (also known as Eldredgeops, an unnecessary genus name based on taxonomic oversplitting). Phacops trilobite fossils occur with other typical Middle Paleozoic shallow marine invertebrates: brachiopods, bryozoans, crinoids, and corals.
Classification: Animalia, Arthropoda, Trilobita, Polymerida, Phacopidae
