Pritzker Military Library D Day Anthology.
Four Roses Anthology is an ultra-premium annual bourbon collection that recently saw its first release which is called Chapter One: Origin and the liquid in the bottle is 21-years old. Pulled from a variety of single barrels and priced at $500 - this stands as the oldest release in the distillery's history. If you've been paying attention, then you know we already did a fresh crack of this on YouTube. However, we wanted to put this bourbon through it's paces. Therefore, in this episode, we blind it against King of Kentucky, Russell's 15, Austin Nichols Archives Gold Foil, and an old Elijah Craig Batch 10 Barrel Proof (pirate bottle). What will come out on top? You've have to listen to find out. -------------------------SocialsIG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupkyFB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupkyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupkyJoin our community on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheMashUpBourbonPodcastPartnership(s)Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUPMusic: All the Fixings by Zachariah HickmanThank you so much for listening!
689. We talk to Amanda Skenadore about her novel on the Carville Leprosy Colony, The Second Life of Mirielle West. Amanda Skenandore is a registered nurse turned historical fiction author whose medical background deeply shapes her storytelling. In her novel The Second Life of Mirielle West, she takes listeners into 1920s America to follow a Hollywood socialite whose life is upended when a diagnosis of leprosy forces her into exile at Carville, Louisiana — the nation's only leprosarium at the time. Blending rigorous medical history with emotional depth, the story explores one woman's fight against systemic isolation and social stigma as she seeks purpose, belonging, and redemption in the most unexpected place. Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy. The oldest play about Louisiana, author James Workman wrote it as a celebration of the Louisiana Purchase. Now it is back in print for the first time in 222 years. Order your copy today! This week in the Louisiana Anthology. Gaspar Cusachs. "Lafitte: The Louisiana Pirate and Patriot." Here in Barataria, amid the innumerable branches of bayous, passes, and inextricable cypress swamps, persons may lie concealed from the strictest scrutiny. In 1811, Lafitte fortified the eastern and western points of this island, and established a regular depot. Here the prizes were brought and sold to the inhabitants of the adjoining districts, who resorted to these places for the purpose of obtaining bargains in matters of trade and without being at all solicitous to conceal the object of their journey. No effective measures having been taken to expel the pirates they continued their depredations upon the Spanish commerce and sometimes ventured to attack vessels of other nations. They were generally regarded as pirates, but it is probable that most, if not all of them, were commissioned by the Carthagenian government. This week in Louisiana history. July 31 1976. U.S. Rep.

The Mississippi is well worth reading about. It is not a commonplace river, but on the contrary is in all ways remarkable. Considering the Missouri its main branch, it is the longest river in the world—four thousand three hundred miles. It seems safe to say that it is also the crookedest river in the world, since in one part of its journey it uses up one thousand three hundred miles to cover the same ground that the crow would fly over in six hundred and seventy-five. It discharges three times as much water as the St. Lawrence, twenty-five times as much as the Rhine, and three hundred and thirty-eight times as much as the Thames. No other river has so vast a drainage-basin: it draws its water supply from twenty-eight States and Territories; from Delaware, on the Atlantic seaboard, and from all the country between that and Idaho on the Pacific slope—a spread of forty-five degrees of longitude. The Mississippi receives and carries to the Gulf water from fifty-four subordinate rivers that are navigable by steamboats, and from some hundreds that are navigable by flats and keels. The area of its drainage-basin is as great as the combined areas of England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Austria, Italy, and Turkey; and almost all this wide region is fertile; the Mississippi valley, proper, is exceptionally so.

M93 is almost here, and apparently nobody remembered to lock the classified filing cabinet. In this episode of Talking Trek, DJz, Griffin, Tarpy and the crew break down a mountain of upcoming Star Trek Fleet Command information. Choice tokens are officially returning, the Mythic Battle Pass is disappearing, the 20-day Battle Pass format is coming back and Scopely appears to be reconsidering how it approaches progression, monetization and the game's troubled economy. We also dig into major Alliance Tournament changes, including partial packs for every specialty ship and upcoming $50 sourcing options for Athena and Borg Sphere parts. Is the Legendary Store rewarding enough? Should the caps on Primes and ship skins be removed? Are the rewards progressing quickly enough to remain relevant? The panel takes apart the current tournament structure and offers several ways it could improve. Finally, we preview M93's new Galactic Anomalies system. These rotating daily buffs and debuffs will appear across multiple systems, changing hostile combat conditions and encouraging players to experiment with crews, mitigation, barrier and damage strategies. M93 may be an Anthology arc built around returning content, but there are still several new mechanics and at least one ominous reason to keep your station shielded.

Sidonie de la Houssaye. “Alix de Morainville.” But one day — God knows how it happened — a child of the village all at once entered the chamber where I was and knew me. “Madame Alix!” he cried, took to his heels and went down the terrace pell-mell (quatre à quatre) to give the alarm. Ten minutes later Matthieu came at a full run and covered with sweat, to tell us that all the village was in commotion and that those people to whom I had always been so good were about to come and arrest me, to deliver me to the executioners. I ran to Joseph, beside myself with affright. “Save me, Joseph! save me!” “I will use all my efforts for that, Mme. la Viscomtesse.” At that moment Jerome appeared. He came to say that a representative of the people was at hand and that I was lost beyond a doubt. “Not yet,” responded Joseph. “I have foreseen this and have prepared everything to save you, Mme. la Viscomtesse, if you will but let me make myself well understood.” “Oh, all, all! Do thou understand, Joseph, I will do everything thou desirest.” “Then,” he said, regarding me fixedly and halting at each word — “then it is necessary that you consent to take Joseph Carpentier for your spouse.” I thought I had [been] misunderstood and drew back haughtily. “My son!” cried mother Catharine. “Oh, you see,” replied Joseph, “my mother herself accuses me, and you — you, madame, have no greater confidence in me. But that is nothing; I must save you at any price. We will go from here together; we will descend to the village; we will present ourselves at the mayoralty — ” In spite of myself I made a gesture. “Let me speak, madame,” he said. “We have not a moment to lose. Yes, we will present ourselves at the mayoralty, and there I will espouse you, not as Claudine Leroy, but as Alix de Morainville. Once my wife you have nothing to fear. Having become one of the people, the people will protect you. After the ceremony, madame, I will hand you the certificate of our marriage, and you will tear it up the moment we shall have touched the soil of England. Keep it precious till then; it is your only safeguard. Nothing prevents me from going to England to find employment, and necessarily my wife will go with me. Are you ready, madame?” For my only response I put my hand in his; I was too deeply moved to speak. Mother Catharine threw both her arms about her son's neck and cried, “My noble child!” and we issued from the cottage guarded by Guillaume and his three other sons, armed to the teeth. When the mayor heard the names and surnames of the wedding pair he turned to Joseph, saying: “You are not lowering yourself, my boy.” At the door of the mayoralty we found ourselves face to face with an immense crowd. I trembled violently and pressed against Joseph. He, never losing his presence of mind (sans perdre la carte), turned, saying: “Allow me, my friends, to present to you my wife. The Viscomtesse de Morainville no longer exists; hurrah for the Citoyenne Carpentier.” And the hurrahs and cries of triumph were enough to deafen one. Those who the moment before were ready to tear me into pieces now wanted to carry me in triumph. Arrived at the house, Joseph handed me our act of marriage. This week in Louisiana history.

Are the Athena, Female Spock, Territory Control additions and Academy progression changing the wider game, or are they simply powerful tools locked inside their own loops? The crew breaks down modern G6 progression, faction ship requirements, Territory hostile mechanics, Female Spock crewing, Duo Wave Defense, the Academy refinery, officer laurels and the massive Sigma resource requirements waiting on the road to G7. Community members also join the stage to share their experiences and debate whether STFC's renewed focus on existing content is finally moving the game in a healthier direction. The conversation also covers upcoming Alliance Tournament changes, the pause created by the Anthology arc, player choice, content creator feedback and whether now is finally a good time for hesitant commanders to enter G6. And because this is a ShowCast takeover, the episode eventually abandons all discipline and becomes a heated debate about the greatest adaptation of The Odyssey. Topics include: Star Trek Fleet Command G6 and G7 progression USS Athena Duo Wave Defense Starfleet Academy refinery Female Spock crews Territory Control hostiles Faction ship requirements Officer laurels Alliance Tournaments Anthology arc Vengeance progression Sigma Tritanium Community feedback 00:00 – The ShowCast Takes Command 02:35 – Tonight's G6 Progression Debate 04:27 – Has Anything Since April Been Must-Have? 07:11 – DJz Is Officially on Vacation 10:20 – Faction Ships and the New G6 Reality 14:04 – Progress Without Feeling More Powerful 18:34 – Is Recent Content Changing Anyone's Game? 22:30 – Female Spock and Territory Hostile Crews 27:39 – Female Spock, Chang and Flocs Crew Advice 35:48 – Community Members Join the Conversation 36:08 – Updating Old Content Instead of Adding More 42:45 – Is the Academy Refinery Actually Worth It? 46:51 – Preparing for G7's Sigma Resource Wall 50:02 – Required Ships Finally Mean Required Ships 52:43 – Duo Waves Become “Dancing Waves” 54:30 – Athena Research and Refinery Progression 1:06:09 – Officer Laurels and the Athena's Future Value 1:20:13 – Destro Returns and Builds Bread Voltron 1:21:03 – Can We Judge Academy Content Yet? 1:26:34 – Alliance Tournament Task Changes 1:35:56 – Why Slow Progression May Be Intentional 1:37:13 – Content Creator Feedback Is Being Used 1:45:00 – Are New Loops Helpful Beyond Themselves? 1:58:00 – G6 Progression, Accessibility and Player Choice 2:10:00 – The Moving Goalposts of New Content 2:20:00 – Fixing the Journey Through G6 2:28:59 – Should Players Finally Move Into G6? 2:31:02 – The Great Odyssey Adaptation Debate 2:32:00 – Final Thoughts and Closing Chaos
Summer is here and we're staying indoors instead of sweating it out. We're keeping it cool in the A/C and with some chilling horror anthology TV to help us get through the long summer days. Here are 4 horror anthology series I've picked for our staff picks will this week. Tales from the Darkside (1983)What could've been Creepshow: The Series became Tales from the Darkside. Created by Night of the Living Dead director George A. Romero and horror producer Richard P. Rubinstein, Tales from the Darkside is a half-hour horror anthology show filled with practical effects, and crazy good folks in the director's chair and the writer's room. I recommend the pilot episode, “Trick or Treat” starring Barnard Hughes, if you want a good flavor for this series. Freddy's Nightmares (1988)Spun off from the A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, Freddy's Nightmares gave many parents nightmares with its dark, disturbing, violent, and scary content being aired in syndication on broadcast TV where just anyone could watch it! Robert Englund reprises his role as Freddy Krueger and opens and closes each episode with some framing narration. The episode I think you should check out to get a taste for the show is “Killer Instinct,” which stars the great Lori Petty. It's eerie, creepy, and frankly a bit disturbing. If you're down for a good scare or just a big A Nightmare on Elm Street fan, Freddy's Nightmares is well worth your time. The Outer Limits (1995)The 1995 The Outer Limits revival is an incredible cavalcade of acclaimed science fiction and horror writers, directors, and actors. Lasting for 152 episodes and seven seasons, The Outer Limits (1995) far outstripped its predecessor, and offers viewers a fascinating and often poignant exploration of human topics through the lens of science fiction horror. There are so many episodes I could point to for great examples from this series, but one of my favorites is the season 4 episode, “Glyphic.” Starring Rachael Leigh Cook, Brad Swaile, written by Naren Shankar, and directed by the late, great Catherine O'Hara, this is a fascinating episode that deals with an unexplainable disease with an out-of-this-world solution. The New Scooby-Doo Movies (1972)Finally, The New Scooby-Doo Movies from 1972 rounds out my selections for the staff picks wall this week. No, it's not exactly what comes to mind when you think of anthology horror TV, but hear me out, I think it is. It follows in the anthology horror TV format of new guest stars every week, a new monster or ghost to figure out, a bit of mystery to uncover, but it's wrapped in an animated comedy package. It's anthology horror that's fun for everyone, be they adults, kids, or teens. And it also serves as a good chaser if you need something more lighthearted after the first three recommendations. While I literally enjoy every episode of The New Scooby-Doo Movies, I think “The Loch Ness Mess” featuring The Harlem Globetrotters is one of the more interesting, if not strange episodes of the series.

Compair Lapin went to get a very long and strong rope, then he got his drum and hid it in the grass. He took one end of the rope, and went to the elephant: “Mister, you who are so good and so strong. I wish you would render me a service; you would relieve me of a great trouble and prevent me from losing my money.” The elephant was glad to hear such a fine compliment, and he said: “Compair, I shall do for you everything you want. I am always ready to help my friends.” “Well,” said Lapin, “I have a cow which is stuck in the mud on the coast; you know that I am not strong enough to pull her out; I come for you to help me. Take this rope in your trunk. I shall tie it to the cow, and when you hear me beat the drum, pull hard on the rope. I tell you that because the cow is stuck deep in the mud.” “That is all right,” said the elephant. “I guarantee you I shall pull the cow out, or the rope will break.” Compair Lapin took the other end of the rope and ran towards the sea. He paid a pretty compliment to the whale, and asked her to render him the same service about the cow, which was stuck in a bayou in the woods. Compair Lapin's mouth was so honeyed that no one could refuse him anything. The whale took hold of the rope and said: “When I shall hear the drum beat I shall pull.” “Yes,” said Lapin, “begin pulling gently, and then more and more.” “You need not be afraid,” said the whale; “I shall pull out the cow, even if djabe were holding her.” “That is good,” said Lapin; “we are going to laugh.” And he beat his drum. The elephant began to pull so hard that the rope was like a bar of iron. The whale, on her side, was pulling and pulling, and yet she was coming nearer to the land, as she was not so well situated to pull as the elephant. When she saw that she was mounting on land, she beat her tail furiously and plunged headlong into the sea. The shock was so great that the elephant was dragged to the sea. “What, said he, what is the matter? that cow must be wonderfully strong to drag me so. Let me kneel with my front feet in the mud.” Then he twisted the rope round his trunk in such a manner that he pulled the whale again to the shore. He was very much astonished to see his friend the whale. “What is the matter,” said he. “I thought it was Compair Lapin's cow I was pulling.” “Lapin told me the same thing. I believe he is making fun of us.” “He must pay for that,” said the elephant. “I forbid him to eat a blade of grass on land because he laughed at us.” “And I will not allow him to drink a drop of water in the sea. We must watch for him, and the first one that sees him must not miss him.” Compair Lapin said to Bouki: “It is growing hot for us; it is time to leave.” “You see,” said Bouki, “you are always bringing us into trouble.” This week in Louisiana history.

The Untitled Beatles Podcast has done it! We are Free As A Bird from Disney's Beatles Anthology! There were moments of Real Love; Now And Then. But would the new Episode 9, comprised largely from the 2003 Special Features DVD, provide some Hope Of Deliverance? Would the new episode finally bring T.J. Off The Ground? Is Producer Casey Looking for Changes in how it's edited? Does Tony simply want Peace in the Neighbourhood, allowing us to enjoy the old and the new? Also, what's with all these “Off The Ground” references, did this week's randomly selected writer run out of ideas? WTF, now I Owe It All To You, to explain? Nah, son - Get Out Of My Way. This one's called Biker Like An Icon, you Golden Earth Girl, female animal. So, uh, yeah; do join us as we conclude our deep dish of Episode 9 and also ask: ☕ Did Mal Evans put copies of Elvis Costello's “Spike” in the English tea of EMI engineers?

Tonight on Weekly Spooky, we dive into nature horror from Algonquin Park's cursed wilderness. “Branch Manager” — a gruesome, darkly funny supernatural folklore tale from Gary D up in Ontario, Canada aka Blue Fire Raging — follows three Toronto telemarketing workers seeking escape in the Canadian deep woods. What begins as beer and campfire jokes turns into a nightmare when something ancient, hungry, and rooted in revenge awakens. Perfect cryptid encounter storytelling with late night horror that blends true wilderness with paranormal dread.Kenny, Dave, and Karl just want to get away from their miserable call centre jobs with a relaxing camping trip, but the forest has other plans. At first, it's only fog, roadkill, strange sounds, and branches snapping in the dark. Then the tent is shredded. Kenny's friends vanish. Deep scrape marks carve through the campsite. And somewhere beyond the firelight, the trees themselves seem to be crawling, listening, hunting, and waiting for the next sound.This story delivers camping horror, wilderness horror, killer tree horror, creature feature terror, Canadian forest horror, and the kind of bloody, bizarre, dark comedy that makes a simple walk in the woods feel like a death sentence. If you love scary stories, horror stories, monster stories, campfire horror, survival horror, nature revenge horror, supernatural folklore, and creepy tales about what might be watching from the treeline, this one digs its roots in deep.Inside this episode: a camping trip gone horribly wrong, a sound-sensitive forest monster, missing campers, supernatural revenge from nature, gruesome body horror, dark humor, and one very angry collection of trees that may finally be done letting humanity swing the axe.Listen now for a brutal and unforgettable horror fiction anthology episode from Weekly Spooky, where the woods are alive, the branches are hungry, and the forest has a brand-new manager.Branch Manager by Gary D up in Ontario, Canada

This week on Dads From The Crypt, we crack open 1993's Necronomicon—the Lovecraft-inspired horror anthology featuring stories of madness, monsters, and plenty of gooey practical effects. We dig into the wraparound with H.P. Lovecraft himself, break down all three twisted tales, and talk about whether this cult oddity is an underrated gem or just a slimy mess from the VHS era.

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Matthew D. Del Papa, one of the editors of SuperCanucks: An Anthology of Canadian Small-Town Superheroes (Latitude 46 Publishing, 2026). SuperCanucks features eleven stories that explore the usual superhero tropes while shining a spotlight on the unique corners of Canada. Not your typical big city superhero, but those who live in and around Canada's more often overlooked locales—isolated small towns and rural outposts. These heroes battle unique Canadian dangers, including government bureaucracy and the overreaching neighbours in the south. About the Editors: Matthew D. Del Papa spent every Tuesday of his youth crisscrossing his hometown of Capreol in search of newly arrived comic books. He wore superhero-themed Underoos to a truly worrying age and still has his Batman (and Robin) lunchbox, backpack, and wristwatch. A graduate of Laurentian University, Matthew is a writer, editor, and self-publisher, and has released ten titles to some modest local acclaim. He joined the Sudbury Writers' Guild in 2009 and his writing has appeared in Spooky Sudbury, Nothing Without Us Too, Mighty, and the forthcoming Sudbury Superstack: A Changing Skyline. His first book, a collection of humorous essays titled Jerry Lewis Told Me I Was Going to Die, was released in 2023 through Latitude 46 Publishing. Andy W. Taylor grew up as a teen in the 1980s reading Alpha Flight comics and was excited to see Canadian superheroes represented for the first time. Andy was a reader and writer of speculative fiction from an early age thanks in no small part to his mother's frequent trips to the public library with her kids. He's a member of the Sudbury Writers' Guild, a graduate of the Viable Paradise writing workshop and Playwright's Junction workshop, and a member of CODEX writer's forum. Originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Andy currently lives in Sudbury with his family. His fiction has appeared in On Spec Magazine, FictionVale, Polar Borealis, Sudbury Ink Anthology, and on the streets of Sudbury. He has a new poem and non-fiction piece coming out in 2024 in the anthology Sudbury Superstack: A Changing Skyline. Learn more about your ad choices.

Unknown Broadcast returns with four old-time radio horror stories, classic OTR suspense, vintage radio mystery, and eerie anthology drama pulled from somewhere beyond the static.Tonight's transmission begins with a troubled girl whose uncanny gift for finding lost things draws her toward a missing woman, a frightened family, and something buried much too close to home. Then the doors close inside an enormous department store, where a poet discovers that the mannequins are not the only inhabitants waiting for nightfall. After that, a bachelor party becomes an impossible murder mystery involving a dead stranger, a vanished apartment, and five extremely important canaries.Finally, The Whistler follows a jealous wife whose plan to eliminate “the other woman” rests upon one fatal assumption.

685. Today author Adam J. Smith joins us to talk about his writing. Based in Covington, Adam uses his adopted home state of Louisiana as the backdrop for his fiction. Through his books, readers are introduced to Callier, Louisiana, a seemingly quiet town where deep secrets and unexpected dangers hide just beneath the surface. From the chilling pursuit of a small town killer in The Callier Cutter to the battle against institutional corruption in Your Honor, Smith captures the tension of local mystery. He also writes youth fiction using Callier as a starting point for a fantasy portal to Adventure Land. Smith weaves the unique spirit and pacing of Louisiana life into unforgettable tales of suspense, community, and adventure. Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy.

"Put into a casserole (saucepan) a spoonful of pure lard and one of flour, stir it well until it is of a light brown. Chop an onion into small pieces and throw them in. Cut up a fat capon or chicken into small pieces and put these in the casserole with the flour and lard. Stir it all the while until the chicken is nearly done. When the whole is well browned, add a slice of ham, cut up small. Throw in two or three pods of red pepper, and salt to your taste. Now add a quart of boiling water, and leave it on the fire for two hours and a half. A quarter of an hour before dinner is served add three dozen oysters with their liquor. Just before taking the soup off the fire, put in a tablespoonful of filet, stirring it all the while. Let it boil one minute and then serve. Do not put in too much filet; the spoon should not be full. Indeed, half a tablespoonful is enough." Louise Livingston Hunt, New Orleans. This week in Louisiana history. July 3, 1870.

Since it's a holiday weekend, this episode's blurb was written by A.I. (American Intelligents) Happy 250th birthday to the United States of America! And hey America, what better way to celebrate than with an American podcast about the world's most famous American group, The Beatles!! We salute these Beatles American hometowns: John - Menlove Ave, New York City Paul - Forthlin Drive, Carolina Shores, NC George - Wavertree Hall Farm, Virginia Ringo - Dingle, Idaho And since The Beatles have been #1 in America's heart since 1776, scientific statisticians - using recent census figures combined with ATV sales and the market price of halibut - have proven that 9 is truly a magical number. Por ejemplo: 9x4=36 There are 4 Beatles but really there are 36! So this week the Untitled Beatles Codpiece performs as a throuple (T.J., Tony, and Producer Casey), discussing the 90s era Threetles (9-3=3) in their critique of Disney+ (in association with Good Times Video)'s Beatles Anthology Episode 9. Is it truly worthy of a Revolution? Hork down a hot dog sandwich in a muenster truck while hurling a beanball at your Mom! It's American Independence Day served Beatles-style, made possible only by Calderstone Imperial Musical Enterprises Incorporated. Because the Red Album, White Album and Blue Album = Now and Then Forever.

What happens when an electric guitar is used to interpret music from cultures that completely ignore the Western tonal system? Guitarist Marisa Anderson dove into the depths of late filmmaker Harry Smith's record collection to find out. While Smith himself once did similar research to compile his influential Anthology of American Folk Music, Anderson was more interested in compositions and improvisations that emerged outside of her country. She felt particularly drawn to recordings from places the United States has been in conflict with for decades, which led her down the path of producing her own Anthology of UnAmerican Folk Music. Transcribed in her “first language”, the electric guitar, and accompanied by soundscapes built with keyboards, the accordion, and other instruments, Anderson carefully arranged pieces from Afghanistan, Yemen, Vietnam, and more. As she bent the strings of her guitar to achieve some form of microtonality, she kept questioning the concept of being unamerican: “Who are the people we've been told in our lifetimes are “unamerican?” What have we lost or been denied access to in the fallout from that label?” Anderson brings some of her interpretations to our studio for a solo performance and explains her process. “This project changed me permanently… I'm a better listener,” she says, as she approaches each new territory with the curiosity and joy of a child in a candy store.

684. Today we chat with Lee Farrow about the visit of Count Alexis of Russia to Louisiana. She has written about the 1872 visit of Russian Grand Duke Alexis Romanov to Louisiana in her book Alexis in America: A Russian Grand Duke's Tour, 1871–1872.Farrow, a New Orleans native and Tulane University alumna, meticulously separates history from myth regarding the Grand Duke's arrival in New Orleans during Reconstruction. While popular Mardi Gras legend claims the Krewe of Rex was hastily founded solely to honor Alexis because he was pursuing a stage actress, Farrow's research reveals a more complex reality: local organizers used the celebrity of the Tsar's son to boost tourism, project a cosmopolitan image, and heal post-Civil War divisions. Alexis arrived aboard the luxury steamboat James Howard, and was officially welcomed by Rex, the King of Carnival, cementing a cultural connection between Russian royalty and Louisiana tradition that is celebrated to this day.

SNAKE-WOMAN DISTRIBUTES SEEDS The Great Father gave the seeds of all growing things to Snake-Woman. He taught her how to plant the seeds and how to care for the green things that grew from them until they were ripe, and then how to prepare them for food. One time, when Snake-Woman had more seeds than she could possibly care for, she decided to give some to the people. She called her two sons and asked them to help her carry the seeds. Each put a big bag full of seeds on his back, and then they traveled all over the world, giving six seeds of each kind of plant to every person. As Snake-Woman gave each person the seeds she told him that he must plant them, and must care for the plants that grew from them, but must allow no one, especially children, to touch them or even point to them as they grew. She said that until the seeds were ripe they belonged to her, and if any one gathered them too soon she would send a poisonous snake to bite him. Parents always tell their children what Snake-Woman said, and so they are afraid to touch or go near any growing plants for fear a snake will come and bite them. This week in Louisiana history.
