Devastating House Explosion in Lincoln NE 8-14-17 (Part 5 Video)
This horrible explosion occurred at approximately 1630 on Monday afternoon on the corner of 78th and Eastview Drive (2 blocks South of Old Cheney). An older couple lived there alone.
They both were blown into the neighbors back yard approximately 70 to 80 feet to the west. The couples neighbors from 2 houses down are friends of ours and after hearing the explosion, they ran over and and saw the couple laying in the adjacent neighbors back yard. Initially, both of them were engulfed in flames on nearly 75% of their body. They quickly ran to the nearest garden hose and started dousing them with water and doing everything they could to remove their burning clothing. The woman sustained major inhalation burns and her throat was rapidly swelling shut. Upon arrival, paramedics were unable to intubate due to posterior oropharyngeal wall edema so a tracheotomy was performed. I'm fairly certain that these efforts were too late and the woman did not make it.
The man regained consciousness and stated that he was cooking dinner at their stove and the next thing he remembers is laying in the grass and his neighbor and friend spraying him with a garden hose. The man was taken away by Lincoln Fire and Rescue and appeared to be in critical if not grave condition.
It was reported that debris was found up to 4 blocks away. Near by neighbors said that they were nearly blown off their sofa as they watched TV. The concussion could be felt inside of houses 6-8 blocks away. It could be seen that 3-4 houses away in most all directions had their windows blown out and the closer houses had kitchen cabinets jarred loose from the walls.
This is speculation as well and has not yet been confirmed, but it is fairly evident from the damage that this explosion was from a Natural Gas leak.
We live a few blocks to the East and North of this unfortunate couple. Please be in prayer for their family, friends and neighbors..

Girl's Suicide in US Brings Fresh Attention to Bullying
This is the VOA Special English Education Report, from |
An old problem is getting new attention in the United States: bullying. Recent cases included the tragic case of a fifteen-year-old girl whose family moved from Ireland.
Phoebe Prince hanged herself in Massachusetts in January following months of bullying. Her parents criticized her school for failing to protect her. Officials have brought criminal charges against
several teenagers.
Judy Kuczynski is president of an anti-bullying group called
Bully Police USA. Her daughter Tina was the victim of severe bullying starting in middle school in the state of Minnesota.
Judy Kuczynski says her daughter was a very outgoing child, very involved in all kinds of things, and had lots of friends. But over a period of time her grades fell completely. She developed health problems.
She couldn't sleep. She wasn't eating. She had terrible stomach pains and started grinding her teeth at night. And she did not want
to go to school.
Bullying is defined as negative behavior repeated over time
against the same person. It can involve physical violence or it can be verbal -- for example, insults or threats.
Spreading lies about someone or excluding a person from a group
is known as social or
relational bullying.
And now there is cyberbullying, which uses the Internet, e-mail or text messages. It has easy appeal for the bully because it does not involve face-to-face contact and
it can be done at any time.
The first serious research studies into bullying were done in Norway in the late nineteen seventies.
The latest government study in the United States was released
last year. It found that about one-third of students age twelve to eighteen were bullied at school.
Examples included being made fun of, pushed, spit on, threatened or excluded from activities.
Some students had their property damaged. About four percent reported being the victims of cyberbullying. The study took place in
two thousand seven.
Susan Swearer is a psychologist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and co-director of the Bullying Research Network. She says schools should treat bullying as a mental health problem to get bullies and victims the help they need.
She says bullying is connected to depression, anxiety and anti-social behavior, and bullies are often victims themselves.
What can be done to prevent bullying? That will be our subject next week. And that's the VOA Special English Education Report.

American History - Part 093 - Lincoln - Robert E Lee refuses Lincoln - Union Posturing
Welcome to THE MAKING OF A NATION -- American history in VOA Special English.
The first state to secede after the start of the Civil War was Virginia. It was an important state because of its location. It was just across the Potomac River from Washington.
Virginia's decision to secede cost the Union a military commander of great ability. He was Robert E. Lee. Lee was a Virginian and had served in the United States Army for more than thirty years. Lincoln asked him to be head of the army when General Winfield Scott retired.
Lee said he could not accept the job. He said he opposed secession and loved the Union. But, he said, he could not make war on his home state. Lee resigned from the army. He did not really want to fight at all. But soon after his resignation, he agreed to command the forces of Virginia.
Virginia's forces moved quickly after the state seceded. A group of one thousand soldiers went to Harpers Ferry, Virginia, where the Union army had a gun factory and arsenal. It was the same town where abolitionist John Brown had tried to start a slave rebellion a few years before.
Washington was not strongly defended. It did not have enough soldiers to stop any real attempt by Confederate forces to seize the city. It was extremely important to get more soldiers to Washington as quickly as possible.
Thousands of men were on their way to Washington. But they could not get there quickly.
The first troop train from the North passed through Baltimore, Maryland, without incident. The second train was not so lucky.
A mob blocked the rail line and threw stones at the train. Shots were fired. Four soldiers and twelve civilians were killed.
State and city officials met to discuss the trouble. They agreed that there would be even more violence in the future. So they ordered railroad bridges outside Baltimore destroyed. No more trains from the North could reach Washington that way.
President Lincoln told the officials of the great need to get more soldiers to the capital. He agreed that they did not have to pass through Baltimore. But he wanted them to be able to land safely at Annapolis, a city on the Chesapeake Bay.
Landing at Annapolis would be easy. Getting to the capital would not. Still, with all these difficulties, ten-thousand troops made it to Washington in the first few weeks of the Civil War. The city and government were safe.
President Lincoln worried about the presence of Confederate supporters in Maryland. He knew they would continue to be a threat to the movement of Union troops and supplies.
Lincoln wanted to restrict the activities of the Confederate supporters. So he took an extremely unusual step for an American president. He put much of Maryland under military rule. He gave military officers the power to arrest civilians believed to be hostile to the Union. And he gave them the power to hold these suspects without trial.
This order suspended two of the basic rights under the Constitution. One was the right to go free until officially charged. And the other was the right to a speedy trial.
The chief justice of the United States wrote a letter to President Lincoln. He said the Constitution did not give the president the power to suspend the rights of citizens. Lincoln disagreed. He felt the situation facing the Union permitted him to take such strong measures. If he had not acted, he believed, Maryland would have seceded.
Maryland did not withdraw. But North Carolina, Tennessee, and Arkansas did. There were now eleven states in the Confederacy. There could be two more. No one knew how long Kentucky and Missouri would remain in the Union. Both supported the southern rebels.
President Lincoln treated Kentucky carefully. He did not want the state to secede. Nor did he want it to remain neutral. Kentucky reached from the mountains of Virginia to the Mississippi River. As a neutral state, Kentucky could block northern troops from much of the South. Lincoln wanted it firmly on the side of the Union.
Lincoln hoped that, in time, these efforts would win Kentucky's support for his war effort.
The capital of the Confederate states of America was located far south in Montgomery, Alabama. Within the first few weeks of the Civil War, the Confederate Congress voted to move the capital farther north to Richmond, Virginia. They believed Virginia would be an important battlefield in the war. They were right.
Two days before Confederate President Jefferson Davis left for Richmond, Union troops invaded Virginia. They left Washington, crossed the Potomac River, and seized the towns of Arlington and Alexandria.
No shots were fired. Confederate forces withdrew as Union troops moved forward. Within a month, thousands more Union soldiers were in Virginia. They were to prepare for a major battle at a place called Manassas Junction, or Bull Run.
That will be our story next week.

The Election of 1860 & the Road to Disunion: Crash Course US History #18
In which John Green teaches you about the election of 1860. As you may remember from last week, things were not great at this time in US history. The tensions between the North and South were rising, ultimately due to the single issue of slavery. The North wanted to abolish slavery, and the South wanted to continue on with it. It seemed like a war was inevitable, and it turns out that it was. But first the nation had to get through this election. You'll learn how the bloodshed in Kansas, and the truly awful Kansas-Nebraska Act led directly to the decrease in popularity of Stephen Douglas, the splitting of the Democratic party, and the unlikely victory of a relatively inexperienced politician from Illinois, Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln's election would lead directly to the secession of several southern states, and thus to the Civil War. John will teach you about all this, plus Dred Scott, Roger Taney, and John Brown.

The Lincoln and Douglass debates of the 1850s fueled the argument over state's rights to decide on slavery and culminated when the two ran against one another in the Election of 1860:
In response to Lincoln's election, the South seceded from the Union and the Civil War began:

How one piece of legislation divided a nation - Ben Labaree, Jr.
View full lesson:
You may think that things are heated in Washington today, but the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 had members of Congress so angry they pulled out their weapons -- and formed the Republican Party. The issues? Slavery and states' rights, which led the divided nation straight into the Civil War. Ben Labaree, Jr. explains how Abraham Lincoln's party emerged amidst the madness.

Today’s Republican Party opposes big government. It’s culturally conservative. Its demographic support is strongest among white voters, and it usually dominates elections in the South. And its 2016 presidential nominee has been heavily criticized for inciting racial tensions.
But things weren’t always this way.
Over the past 160 or so years, the party has undergone a remarkable transformation from the party of Abraham Lincoln… to the party of Donald Trump.
