Local Pearl Harbor Survivor Honored on 77th Pearl Harbor Day
NORTH LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Yesterday marked the 77th anniversary of Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii signaling the United States' entrance into World War Two,
and one of America's survivors of that attack was honored in Arkansas.
97-year-old Harold Mainer was honored for his service Friday at the Arkansas Inland Maritime Museum in North Little Rock.
He was stationed on the USS Helena at Pearl Harbor when the attack happened on Dec. 7, 1941.
More than two-thousand Americans were killed in the attack, and scores of US fighter planes and battleships destroyed.
I saw the Arizona blow up i saw the Oklahoma turn over, Mainer said. I just tried to do what I could.
Mainer later served during the war on the USS Munsee.
That's where he was when Japan surrendered in 1945.
After receiving an honorable discharge in 1947, Mainer worked for the postal service in Fort Smith.
He married and had 3 children.

USS Hoga (YT-146)
This is my model of USS Hoga. The USS Hoga (YT-146) was a United States Navy yard tug named after the Sioux Indian word for fish. After World War II, the tug was known as the Port of Oakland and then the City of Oakland when it was a fireboat in that city.
Hoga was moored with other yard service craft near the drydocks at 1010 Dock when Pearl Harbor was attacked by Japanese forces on the morning of December 7, 1941. It assisted in the saving of many boats and lives there.
It is this shape I am trying to build my model. Not the weathered shape it is in now. It will be in 1:50 scale so quite small boat.

Life Histories, Impacts, and Mapping of Invasive Crayfish with Dr. Eric Larson
Dr. Eric Larson, Assistant Professor, Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences, University of Illinois, discusses the history, impact, and range mapping of invasive crayfish in the Great Lakes. This is the first of four Invasive Crayfish Collaborative webinars hosted by Illinois-Indiana Sea Grant.
*
*
More on the Invasive Crayfish Collaborative (ICC):
Invasive crayfish pose a substantial threat to aquatic habitats in the Great Lakes Region because of their ability to reduce habitat quality and dramatically alter aquatic food webs. Currently, efforts to prevent the introduction and spread of invasive crayfish consist largely of reducing the size of existing populations and encouraging people to refrain from releasing crayfish into new bodies of water. The ICC focuses on improving upon our collective management and outreach capabilities.
The ICC membership includes representatives of Great Lakes local, state and federal natural resource agencies, universities, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and private businesses. These experts and stakeholders are working towards the region’s collective ability to manage and control invasive crayfish. To join the ICC, please contact InvasiveCrayfishCollaborative@gmail.com

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
John Charles Frémont or Fremont (January 21, 1813 – July 13, 1890) was an American explorer, politician, and soldier who, in 1856, became the first candidate of the Republican Party for the office of President of the United States. During the 1840s, when he led five expeditions into the American West, that era's penny press and admiring historians accorded Frémont the sobriquet The Pathfinder.During the Mexican–American War, Frémont, a major in the U.S. Army, took control of California from the California Republic in 1846. Frémont was convicted in court-martial for mutiny and insubordination over a conflict of who was the rightful military governor of California. After his sentence was commuted and he was reinstated by President Polk, Frémont resigned from the Army. Frémont led a private fourth expedition, which cost ten lives, seeking a rail route over the mountains around the 38th parallel in the winter of 1849. Afterwards, Frémont settled in California at Monterey while buying cheap land in the Sierra foothills. When gold was found on his Mariposa ranch, Frémont became a wealthy man during the California Gold Rush, but he was soon bogged down with lawsuits over land claims, between the dispossession of various land owners during the Mexican–American War and the explosion of Forty-Niners immigrating during the Rush. These cases were settled by the U.S. Supreme Court allowing Frémont to keep his property. Frémont's fifth and final privately funded expedition, between 1853 and 1854, surveyed a route for a transcontinental railroad. Frémont became one of the first two U.S. senators elected from the new state of California in 1850. Frémont was the first presidential candidate of the new Republican Party, carrying most of the North. He lost the 1856 presidential election to Democrat James Buchanan when Know Nothings split the vote. Democrats warned that his election would lead to civil war.During the American Civil War, he was given command of Department of the West by President Abraham Lincoln. Although Frémont had successes during his brief tenure as Commander of the Western Armies, he ran his department autocratically, and made hasty decisions without consulting Washington D.C. or President Lincoln. After Frémont's emancipation edict that freed slaves in his district, he was relieved of his command by President Lincoln for insubordination. In 1861, Frémont was the first commanding Union general who recognized in Brigadier General Ulysses S. Grant an iron will to fight and promoted him commander at the strategic base near Cairo, Illinois. Defeating the Confederates at Springfield, Frémont was the only Union General in the West to have a Union victory for 1861. After a brief service tenure in the Mountain Department in 1862, Frémont resided in New York, retiring from the Army in 1864. The same year Frémont was a presidential candidate for the Radical Democracy Party, but he resigned before the election. After the Civil War, Frémont's wealth declined after investing heavily and purchasing an unsuccessful Pacific Railroad in 1866, and lost much of his wealth during the Panic of 1873. Frémont served as Governor of Arizona from 1878 to 1881 appointed by President Rutherford B. Hayes. Frémont retired from politics and died destitute in New York City in 1890.
Historians portray Frémont as controversial, impetuous, and contradictory. Some scholars regard him as a military hero of significant accomplishment, while others view him as a failure who repeatedly defeated his own best purposes. The keys to Frémont's character and personality may lie in his being born illegitimately, his ambitious drive for success, self-justification, and passive-aggressive behavior. Frémont's published reports and maps produced from his explorations significantly contributed to massive American emigration overland into the West starting in the 1840s. In June 1846 ...
Liberals prepare for a Pat Hays speech
Former Mayor of North Little Rock and UN Agenda21 supporter Patrick Henry Hays announced that he is running for Arkansas House 2nd Congressional District for the Democrat Party. Pat Hays claimed that he made his decision after the problems dealing with the government shutdown. Hays never mentioned Valerie Jarrett, the bureaucrat who organized the shutdown nor did he mention the fact that many of the park closing costs more money to shutdown what were often privately owned facilities.
Several liberals supported Commodore Hays for his run for Congress. Arkansas Education Association Executive Director Rich Nagel, State Representative Eddie Armstrong, Current Mayor of North Little Rock Joe Trolley Smith, & other liberal politicians attended the event. The crowd was moved to look bigger and flags had to be moved into the right positions before Hays came out to speak.
