Farther Back.... | | | | ** | | | | | | | | | | | | | ** | | | | | ** | | | | | | | | | ** | | | ** | | | | | | | | ** | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ** ADDED - JULY 2010 ** | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - April 18, 2019 - Remembering Wayne was my best friend from second grade (our class photo below) through high school. He was very intelligent, but without guile or complications, and always a good friend. | : Remember Mr Stephenson, the sience teacher in Junior high? Poor guy, we gave him lynigitis and he guit teaching. | Two score years and forty-nine days ago we were involved in the culminating act of our years together in the Moscow School system. Graduation!!! I had to look in my old Bear Tracks to find that Dean Phillip C. Petersen delivered the commencement address, but boy, I'm hard pressed to remember what he said. I do remember singing "No Man Is an Island" with the Choralaires , under the direction of H. James Schoepflin. And I have a vague memory of walking across the stage, shaking someone's hand and receiving a diploma. I've heard it said that if you remember the '60s you weren't there, maybe I was only half there. I do remember in the sixth grade in the Whitworth School (1912 building) that it was more interesting watching and hearing the woodpeckers drumming on the steeple of the old Swedish Lutheran Church than it was to pay attention to what Mrs. LaFollette was trying to drill into my thick skull. It was quite entertaining in physics class to watch Emery Barrus pretending to blow his nose on his shirttail. That drove poor Mrs. Day wild. I could only take so much of that, physics that is, so transferred into Chorolaires at the semester break. It seems like a funny thing to do for a kid who wanted to go on to be a high school science teacher! Speaking about one's aim in life, I recall an incident that took place in the first grade. In the Russell School, the boy's bathrooms had the old style urinals extended upwards from the floor to about as high as a first grader is tall (at that time I never understood the need for walk-in urinals). After a vigorous recess we always headed for the lavatory before returning to class. Side by side doing our thing I heard someone yelp, "that kid peed on my foot". Glancing down I was shocked as I discovered I was the guilty one. Perhaps this is why Ken Caldwell and I weren't the closest of friends throughout our twelve years of school. I really think I did apologize, Ken! | : No, I don't remember the name of my school bus (#10?) BUT I do remember our bus driver, Fred Horning. He was truly a laid-back, cool man. I was on the fringe end of the bus route. If my sisters or I weren't out by the road, Fred would still stop and wait. If he saw this was going to take awhile, he had a stool which he got out. Along with a rag and some Windex, he'd wash the windows of the bus while my sisters and I got our bodies out there. I have 8mm movies to prove that! Amazing! Also, in the Fall when there were apples on the trees along the road, Fred would stop, let all of us out to pick an apple. Then, we could eat them on the bus. Have times ever changed! Remember the school bus skating parties in Lewiston? Those were fun. Also, does anyone remember Mr. Gould? | " ": Watching in fascination as Bruce Davey flipped his front teeth in and out of place over and over and over again in US history as he sat in the front row and stared at Mrs. Schuette. Must have been a bit distracting for her! | : I have a million memories.... John Weber's '50 Studebaker without doors and his instant acceptance and friendship for the kid from down south, playing city league basketball in the old gym, Michelle....., the "contest" and trying to keep up with Tash, fishing on the Little Joe, sneaking out for a beer before we could face typing class, diving into snowbanks, painting the water tower, that fantastic '64 football team and coach Scott, M-club initiation (nobody could get away with that today!!), Morris breaking Bruce's nose between class, walking down to the bakery shop over lunch break, sloe gin, Shakey's pizza, the drive-in and trying to clean up Dave's mom's car the next day (what was she thinking letting us take her car?), Spring skiing at Sun Valley, hookey-bobbing around town, cruising main street.... I tell stories about some of the crazy things we did and nobody believes them!! Thank you all so much for enriching my life....and helping me live through it!! | " ": One time I stopped by to see a friend. There were some other girls there, and we sat around the table talking. There was one girl, though, who hovered behind me and said, "How would you like to have your hair cut?" Snip. Well, I really hadn't planned on having my hair cut that day. I mean, I didn't know it was on my agenda for that day. She didn't wait for me to say, "Yes", "No", "Let me think about it", or "Over my dead body". I think it is possible, though, that I may have said something like "uh" or "um", or something along that line. I was so stunned that I think I may have been comatose for a moment or two. However, I couldn't very well go around with my hair long on one side and with a short bob on the other side, so I ended up with a short haircut that I hadn't planned on. But, it was kind of funny. Kind of. Sort of. In a way. I guess. Maybe. I do know she meant well. She had good intentions. She simply felt she must intervene on my behalf. My hair must go! And it did. | : and the library, i.e., the limburger cheese in the heat vents, the alarm clock, the penny nailed to the floor and the condom (I think we called them something else) tacked to the bulletin board. Although Miss Gehrke probably received more than her fair share of attention, seems that fell victim to at least one other memorable incident, the "centerfold" in the pull-down map. As a group, there was certainly no shortage of creativity. Is it possible that we had some kind of strange affection for Maybelle Gehrke? I mean, personally, I wouldn't give someone I did not like the time of day. Most of us play practical jokes on those we consider friends, not people we dislike. I believe that if a student needed help, Miss Gehrke would be the first in line. In fact, I think there is at least one graduate in the class of '64 that would not have received a diploma had it not been for Maybelle Gehrke. has no doubt forgotten. Dick had stopped by the house one day. As we were talking I just happen to have a pellet gun in hand and without thinking, 'POP' right on the butt. He took verbal exception and referred to me as the close relative to some female dog among other things, but never mentioned it again. Time passed and it was history, at least for me. Apparently, not for Dick. He was again at the house and oblivious to me, grabbed that pellet gun and 'ZAP' right in the same place. Revenge was his. The pain subsided shortly and I really didn't give it much more thought. Turn about is fair play. Right? A few days later I catch a glimpse of my rear in the bathroom mirror. A perfectly round unbelievably purple bruise 4 - 5 inches in diameter. The next time I see Nelson, I advise him of my rather bizarre bruise. He says, "Ya, I know." . and . By the way, for those of you that also made that bus ride every day, do you remember the name of your bus? | : Who can possibly forget Maybelle Gehrke??? So many memories and most of them so politically incorrect.... Being chained in the library; having live chickens with you while chained in the library; getting the "evil eye stare" for whistling softly under your breath (over and over and over); seeing how many spitwads in takes to fill one of the "upside down" bowls on the ceiling lights; over the course of an hour, seeing how many books you can creatively "re-file" in new and interesting locations; being summoned into the back-room for a serious heart to heart talk; being banished next door to the study hall where nothing interesting happens..... Those were the days!! | : Does anybody remember Mr. Shane? MJHS 7th grade ALL girl Math class! That poor man, I've always wondered if that was a planned thing, wonder if that's why he left the school district?? We should have given him a "survivor" award! Sure was fun though and he was a super guy! | - Skyscrapers

- Your questions answered: Strategic consequences for Ukraine if Pokrovsk falls
- Reporting by Mark Wyatt
Ukraine is calling on the civilian population in its eastern city of Pokrovsk to evacuate as Russian troops draw closer to its outskirts. Readers have been sending in their questions to our senior correspondents and military experts for their take on what could happen next. Today, Malcolm asks: How serious is the situation in Pokrovsk? If the city falls to Russian forces, what are the strategic consequences for Ukraine? Military analyst Sean Bell says... It is very difficult to provide clarity over the tactical progress of the war given the relative paucity of detailed information about progress, challenges and opportunities. However, it appears likely that Vladimir Putin's near-term objective of his "special military operation" is to secure Crimea, the Donbas and the land bridge between the two areas. This summer, Russia's main effort appears to have been securing the final component of the Donbas, and despite the much-publicised casualty rate being suffered by Moscow's forces - more than 1,000 casualties a day - Russia continues to make slow but steady progress. Pokrovsk is a strategically important logistics and transport hub for Ukrainian forces in the region, and Russian forces are now reported to be only six miles away from the town, leading the Ukrainians to evacuate the civilian population. The Russian president knows that it is very difficult to maintain momentum during the winter months, so he has perhaps 10 to 12 weeks available to achieve his objectives before the winter weather settles in. If Russian forces can seize Pokrovsk before the winter, it is possible that Mr Putin will indicate he is ready to negotiate an end to the conflict. Depending on the outcome of the forthcoming US presidential elections, that raises the prospect of Mr Putin being rewarded for his brutal invasion of Ukraine, which would have profound implications for global security. Ukraine's invasion of Russia's Kursk region will soon enter its fourth week, with around 500 square miles of territory captured so far, according to the head of Kyiv's military. Oleksandr Syrskyi said on Tuesday that around 100 settlements, including the town of Sudzha, were now under Ukraine's control. In one of his evening addresses this week, Volodymyr Zelenskyy said troops were still expanding their territory in the region. Here, we look at some key images from the start of the invasion into Kursk. Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Ukraine will not forgive Russia "for a single destroyed Ukrainian life" as the country marks the Day of Remembrance of Defenders of Ukraine. The holiday marks the 10th anniversary of the battle of Ilovaisk, where hundreds of Ukrainian soldiers were killed by Russian troops as they began to withdraw from the encircled town. "This was a planned, cynical Russian crime that Ukraine will never forget and will not leave unpunished," Mr Zelenskyy wrote on his Telegram channel. "Today, Ukraine honours the memory of all its defenders. All those who fought for our state, for Ukrainian independence and sacrificed the most precious thing – their lives. "And we will not forgive Russia for a single destroyed Ukrainian life." Ukraine was forced to disconnect several nuclear power units from the grid on Monday after Russia's widespread drone and missile attacks on the country. Kyiv's mission to the International Atomic Energy Agency has said the attack was intended to paralyse the operation of the power generation facilities of Ukraine. It added that the attacks posed a significant risk to the stable operation of nuclear facilities. As a result of the attack, three out of four power units of the Rivne nuclear power plant were disconnected from the grid, it said. Another nuclear power plant, the South Ukrainian, was also forced to decrease its output "due to fluctuations in the national power grid". A fighter jet from Belarus attempted to shoot down a Russian drone that flew into the country's airspace this morning, a monitoring group has said. The Belarusian Hajun group said this is "probably the first recorded case of a Belarusian Air Force fighter attempting to destroy a military target in the sky". The group claims a Russian drone entered Belarus' airspace at around 3.30am local time (1.30am UK time), with two explosions heard in the country's Yelsk district around 30 minutes later. The drone was said to be a Shahed, also known as a "kamikaze drone". Sky News has not independently verified these claims. For context: Belarus and Russia share a land border and the two are considered close allies. When Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Belarus allowed Moscow to stage part of the invasion from its territory. In the wake of Ukraine's advances into the Russian region of Kursk this month, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko he had stationed nearly a third of the country's armed forces along its Ukrainian border. Ukraine's allies must give Kyiv permission to use weapons to hit military targets in Russia "sooner rather than later", says one of the country's MPs. Volodymyr Zelenskyy has repeatedly asked Western leaders to let Ukraine use long-range weapons on Russian territory. During his nightly address yesterday, the president said such restrictions being lifted would "help us to end the war as soon as possible in a fair way for Ukraine and the world as a whole". This week, Sir Keir Starmer said there had been "no new decisions" on the matter, with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz saying the same yesterday in Berlin. Speaking on Sky News this morning, Ukrainian MP Kira Rudik said the situation across the country remains difficult and urged Kyiv's allies to speed up their decision-making process. She said: "It seems for us that the only way to defend our people and defend our territories is to be able to hit Russian missiles and Russian planes at the start of their launches, not when they are approaching our energy infrastructure or our homes. "And this is why we need the ability to use long-range weapons to destroy Russia's ability to attack us. "It's a pure act of defence. And we hope that, sooner rather than later, our allies will understand that." Russia is continuing its advances in the Donbas region as it seeks to capture the key city of Pokrovsk. Civilians are being evacuated from the city, with Volodymyr Zelenskyy warning the situation is "difficult". The map below shows Russia's gains on Ukrainian territory. On the eastern front, Ukraine's invasion of Russia's Kursk region is ongoing. There have been Russian reports this week that Ukraine has attempted to break into the neighbouring Belgorod region, with Moscow's defence ministry saying the situation "remains difficult but under control". The map below shows Ukraine's gains on Russian territory since its invasion of the border region began on 6 August. A lioness with shell shock rescued from Ukraine has taken her first steps outside at a sanctuary in Kent. Yuna has psychological issues and coordination problems after debris landed near her enclosure in January, according to the Big Cat Sanctuary. The three-year-old arrived at the sanctuary on 17 August but stayed inside her enclosure for a week before finally venturing outside. She's now beginning to get used to her new life in the UK, feeling grass underneath her paws for the first time after spending much of her life confined to a small space on a concrete floor. The sanctuary said before Russia's invasion of Ukraine, she had been kept at a private home and was found malnourished and with severe concussion. Read more here ... Russia's attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure is taking the country "closer and closer" to a total blackout, says one of its MPs. Since the start of the full-scale invasion, Russia has caused £13.5bn of damage to Ukraine's energy infrastructure, the Kyiv School of Economics Institute estimates. Speaking on Sky News, Kira Rudik, who lives in Kyiv, says the city's homes do not have electricity for the "majority of the day". "Even right now, I'm speaking to you all being on a diesel generator," she said. "It's terrifying that still, by this point, we are unable to protect us from those vicious attacks in full. And Russia keeps bringing us closer and closer to that total blackout. "How we are going to survive the winter is unclear right now, because the weather outside is still good. But once it gets colder and people start to consume more energy, we will not be able to handle it." Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in June that Russia had destroyed 80% of Ukraine's thermal energy generation and a third of its hydro generation. But this week, he declined to elaborate on what further damage Monday's strikes had caused. "I don't really like energy PR," he said. "It's not very helpful when the enemy knows what damage they have done. "Let the information about the condition of our energy facilities and what we are currently doing there be kept quiet." The Polish prime minister, Donald Tusk, says Warsaw's allies have recommended it shows restraint over shooting down unidentified targets in its airspace. Poland said a drone had likely entered its airspace early on Monday morning during a Russian bombardment of Ukraine, with the object said to have flown 15 miles (25km) into Polish territory, after which it disappeared from radar. Mr Tusk was asked yesterday about the incident but said it was difficult to identify objects in real time. "The problem with shooting down is often of a different nature," he explained. "It is often a fraction of a second, which makes it impossible to check whether it is not a civilian object, whether it is not a stray plane." He added that Poland's allies had recommended some restraint over the matter and said he appreciated his country's military for their "reasonable, balanced position". "They are not interested in opening fire every time something moves in the sky," he said. Be the first to get Breaking News Install the Sky News app for free |
