![]() A healing cross was constructed by individuals incarcerated at Lemon Creek Correctional Center and placed at the Funter Bay cemetery in 2017. “What we keep hearing from people here in Juneau, and really throughout the country, and throughout the world is that people do not know that this happened,” Sanguinetti. Together, they’re trying to preserve the history of the internment and the places where it happened. They include the museum, Friends of Admiralty Island, private citizens, several Native governments and associations, and state and federal agencies. She helps coordinate among the groups involved in the Funter Bay project. Niko Sanguinetti of the Juneau-Douglas City Museum describes the bill as part of a larger Funter Bay project that also includes a museum exhibit and a set of interpretive panels to be placed at the cemetery. “And it allows us to point to educating Americans who don’t understand when we say ‘a relocation camp.’” ‘People do not know that this happened’įor the people working to get the Funter Bay bill passed, it’s only a starting point. “I think it’s really important that we honor those families and protect their dead and that site,” she said. She said the bill was well on its way to passing, with solid support from Senate leadership and committee chairs when the pandemic cut the session short.įor Hannan, who taught social studies and Alaska history before entering politics, passing the bill this year is a priority. ![]() government through neglect,” Hannan said. ![]() “They came to understand the historical significance and importance of honoring those who were forcibly taken from their homes and died in custody of the U.S. Sara Hannan, the bill’s sponsor, said the elders’ work had an impact on lawmakers “And almost everyone that we met with - we didn’t have a lot of persuading to do.” From left to right: Martin Stepetin Sr., Serafima Edelen, Mary Louise Lekanof, and Zinaida Melovidov on Juneau Afternoon, Feb. “We met with a lot of representatives and legislators and went down to try to help promote the bill and make sure it was going to get passed and make sure we had the support we needed,” she said. The bill to add the Funter Bay cemetery to the marine park almost became a law last year.Įdelen, who traveled to Juneau during the last legislative session with a delegation of elders from the Pribilofs, found most lawmakers were receptive. This land will be protected, and we don’t have to worry about them.” ‘We didn’t have a lot of persuading to do’ “What we wanted was to know that they were going to be protected, they’re going to be safe. “Our traditions - once somebody is laid to rest, they’re laid to rest,” Edelen said. Edelen said the bill would also give people in the Pribilofs peace of mind that their loved ones won’t be disturbed. She’s acted as a liaison between Pribilof elders and people in Southeast Alaska working to preserve the history of the internment. That would mean the land couldn’t be sold or developed, and people would always be able to care for the cemetery so it wouldn’t gradually vanish in the forest.īut the bill serves a more immediate need. Preserving that history is part of the impetus behind a bill that would add about 250 acres of state land, including the cemetery, to Funter Bay State Marine Park. “Who are these people? What happened, and why are they here?” “Why is there a cemetery in the middle of the forest out in Funter Bay?” Stepetin imagined them asking. When he found the cemetery, he realized that anyone who stumbled on it would have no idea what they were seeing. About 10% of them died - mostly young children and the elderly - before they were allowed to return home in 1944. government forcibly removed them from the treeless Pribilof Islands in the Bering Sea and took them to the Southeast rainforest about 1,300 miles away - with only one bag apiece and no hunting or fishing gear.Īt Funter Bay they were left to fend for themselves, living in tents and the remains of an old mine and cannery, without clean water or medicine. The cemetery holds the graves of 30 to 40 Unangax̂ people who died at Funter Bay during World War II. ![]() And we’re asking folks, ‘Hey, do you know where this is - where the Aleuts were kept?’ And many people didn’t even know. ![]() “We looked all over inside of Funter Bay,” Stepetin said. #FUNTER APP HOW TO#The first time Martin Stepetin went to the Unangax̂ cemetery at Funter Bay, he didn’t know how to find it.

You can fight your way through the front gate if you like, but you can also try to sneak in through a secret entrance, or even talk your way past the apprentice who guards the castle's outer hallways.Įlsewhere, you'll explore ancient libraries, glittering monasteries filled with translucent spectres, and blasted volcanic landscapes. This vast fortress is home to a powerful Necromancer and guarded by all manner of undead nasties. A prime example of this is Dark Castle, the point where Solasta really lets you off the lead. #SOLASTA CROWN OF THE MAGISTER WHO SHOULD TAKE THE CROWN HOW TO#Some dungeons are heavily puzzle-oriented, with much of your time spent figuring out how to traverse a series of platforms or navigate a sequence of portals. Although the campaign opens up more in its second half, Solasta is a fairly linear RPG, focussing on a handful of major locations that each take hours to explore. Speaking of dungeons, Solasta's are vast shadowy mazes that are fantastic to explore. #SOLASTA CROWN OF THE MAGISTER WHO SHOULD TAKE THE CROWN FULL#It all makes for exciting, story-like combat, full of canny tricks and last-minute dodges.Ĭombat is where you'll spend most of your time in Solasta, and unsurprisingly it's where the game is most robust. Fighting in darkness will add a visibility disadvantage to your combat rolls, so it's important to use torches or spells to illuminate caves and dungeons. Light is a particularly important factor. ![]() ![]() You can crush enemies by pushing a conveniently placed rock off a ledge or knocking a chandelier off a ceiling, for example. Whether exploring or in combat, I always knew what was happening and why it happened that way.īeyond these mechanics are broader, more unusual systems that bring the environment into play. The first few hours of Crown of the Magister act as a soft tutorial that slickly introduces you to the Fifth Edition rules, from longstanding mechanics like spell-selection and the nuances of resting, to 5e-specific rules such as advantage and disadvantage rolls. As someone who found Baldur's Gate rather intimidating, I credit Solasta for its teaching skill. I'll get to the story's issues later, but first I want to focus on what Solasta does best-making strict D&D rules accessible. No prizes for guessing what your party will be doing for the next forty-ish hours. But the Crown is incomplete, missing several magical jewels that can make it powerful enough to open rifts between worlds. Initially dispatched to investigate a beleaguered border fort on the frontier of the Badlands (think Mordor, but in the West rather the East), you eventually stumble upon an ancient artefact known as the Crown of the Magister. That story sees you control four adventurers recruited as Deputies of the Council, an organisation representing various factions across the realm of Solasta. ![]() ![]() ![]() Because of the large-scale adoption of motorized transport in the American Expeditionary Force, motor sergeant and chauffeur grades were authorized in all branches. At the same time, distinctions returned to some company-level NCOs: Mess sergeants, supply sergeants and stable sergeants. Designs with a wreath and branch device were standardized for most senior technical or administrative specialist NCOs across all branches. Branch devices were removed from the chevrons of sergeants first class, sergeants and corporals that had used them before. It listed 32 insignia "of general application," which could be used by any branch. The biggest reform to enlisted grade insignia during the war came with "Changes No. The Chemical Service (later renamed the Chemical Warfare Service), Tank Corps, Corps of Intelligence Police and Corps of Interpreters were prescribed new insignia, based on those of the Medical Department, but with their own newly-authorized branch devices. ![]() 3" of 19 February 1918 was the first to address newly-organized wartime branches. For enlisted grades it addressed mostly musicians, but there were also new chevrons for the Ordnance Corps, after wartime authorization added the grade of sergeant first class to that branch. The first change to the uniform specifications was issued 29 December 1917. Musicians and specialists in all branches also wore distinctive devices, as did all privates first class. The line NCOs generally wore "plain" chevrons, while others had a branch device. Initial regulations still reflected the army organization of the late 1800s, with divisions between "line" or combat units that operated in the field (Infantry, Cavalry, Field Artillery, Coast Artillery and Engineers) and supporting units or staff that were usually attached to posts. 4 Dress blue insignia colors, 1917 regulations 3 In May 1918, soldiers were ordered to wear grade insignia only on the right sleeve. 2 On 26 June 1917 blue uniforms were suspended completely. On use of blue dress uniforms was suspended for the duration of the war, except for use at the White House. Ranks and insignia earlier in 1917 are essentially the same as in the August order.īefore the war, chevrons worn on blue dress uniforms were colored according to branch, while those of service uniforms were in dull colors like the olive drab or khaki uniform. 42: Specifications for the Uniform of the United States Army of 15 August, 1917, 1 and subsequent changes through 1919. The table is based on the War Department's Special Regulations No. The following table presents all grades and insignia together, sortable by precedence, title, branch and date. The number of grades and the fact that not all branches had the same structure makes it difficult to present all the information in tabular form. The expansion of new branches and grades caused a proliferation of insignia which taxed the army's supply system and left room for reform, which would come in the grade consolidation of 1920.

Ty's room looks like the aftermath of a rough search in a detective movie. Her fingers look as if they have been dipped in red ink.

Looking ahead, USC and UCLA rising up the polls together (for once!) is pristinely timed. On the other side, the rest of the Pac-12 schools must be rolling their eyes - oh, so now you two are going to flex that muscle we always heard about? ![]() These dreamy scenarios have to be making the Big Ten (and Fox) giddy. That’s mostly due to the Trojans having to host resurgent Notre Dame, which has won three straight games after starting 0-2, in the season finale at the Coliseum. USC will have the same opportunity next weekend with Utah, but it will be much harder since the game is at night in Salt Lake City.įrom here, UCLA has the easier path. The Bruins showed they can play physical with a tough team like the Utes but also flash their speed when the window opens to do so. Big 12 conference championship scenarios tv#Identifying those 14 teams shouldn’t take much detective work, but here goes: Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan, Clemson, USC, Oklahoma State, Tennessee, Mississippi, Penn State, Oregon, UCLA, Texas Christian and Texas (the Longhorns have two losses, sure, but if they somehow got to 11-2 they would have a compelling argument they’d be undefeated if starting quarterback Quinn Ewers did not get hurt in the first quarter against Alabama - yes, a long shot, but the CFP committee can’t resist a TV ratings winner with a case).Īs it stands, USC will be ranked higher, but UCLA has proven more on the field thanks to Saturday’s convincing win over Utah, last year’s Pac-12 champ. But projecting ahead, I see 14 teams left that could reasonably make the College Football Playoff semifinals, and two of them reside in L.A., where, coincidentally, the CFP national championship game will be played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood on Jan. The specific rankings don’t matter this early, with so much carnage still to come. 11 Oregon, which crushed Arizona 49-22 on the road Saturday.)

This is USC-UCLA, set in a city that exports enough future NFL talent to college programs each year to fill more than a few teams’ recruiting classes. This isn’t Oregon-Oregon State, which is regionally defined in a part of the country that produces few blue-chip recruits. Has it really been 34 years since USC and UCLA played not just for the Victory Bell bragging rights, but also for a shot at the national championship?įor whatever reason, the Trojans and Bruins just can’t seem to play well at the same time. If you just did a double-take, welcome to the club. Big 12 conference championship scenarios series#This Sunday morning in L.A., sports fans wake to the brink of a Dodgers playoff run and the upcoming NBA nonsensical melodramas, but the most surprising and highest impact development lies here: USC and UCLA are both 6-0 for the first time since 2005, with an all-too-real chance of playing their first top-10 rivalry matchup since 1988 - a few weeks after the Dodgers won the World Series over the A’s. People who nitpick USC are showing their true colors at this point - they’re either self-loathing Trojans or folks whose faces turn cardinal at the thought of USC winning. In the East Coast prime-time slot, Riley’s sixth-ranked Trojans were challenged once again, this time by a capable Washington State team, but ran off 20 unanswered points to win comfortably 30-14. 11 Utah, winning their second-straight top-15 game at the Rose Bowl 42-32. In the afternoon, Kelly’s 18th-ranked Bruins puffed out their chests for four quarters against No. That’s what we’re staring at after Saturday, a day in which no top-10 teams lost across the country, but L.A.’s relevance skyrocketed. ![]() 19 in a game that actually matters nationally because both programs are running legitimate operations - no spoilers allowed, only contenders. UCLA Sports Plaschke: Dorian Thompson-Robinson once again proves he’s the best college QB in L.A.Īs great as Caleb Williams is playing for USC, Dorian Thompson-Robinson proved during UCLA’s big win over Utah that he’s L.A.'s top college quarterback. ![]() ![]() The furthest your opponent can advance against this is 2 squares. Even if he/she does, there’s another of your players behind that one. With a setup like this your opponent has to blitz you to make a block. The B is the ball carrier and there is a cage around him/her. Here’s what I’m talking about to give a visual representation. Those players are 2 squares from each other in a column and also 2 deep. ![]() What you do is place your players 1 square from the opponent, so a blitz is needed to block you. If you’re trying to stop your opponent from running the ball, then setting up a column defense is your best bet. For example, placing your players 2 squares apart means the opponent can’t pass between them a blitz would be needed to clear a path. The number 2 has a lot of value in the game. However, it’s very likely that there’s a term for this as I can’t be the first to talk about this. The Rule of 2 is what I call what I’m about to cover. Save those rerolls for the actions that really matter, not the ones you wish didn’t happen. In short, if a failed action won’t ruin your position or play then just let it go. Will failing that block endanger your play? If it won’t then don’t use a reroll on it.ĭid that dodge you just fail mean you can’t score or stop the opponent? No? Don’t reroll it! I know the natural reaction to a bad block roll is to use a reroll but think about it first. If I had a nickel for every time I’ve seen a coach use a reroll on something pointless then I’d be a millionaire. This isn’t 100% true, as actual odds do matter here, but as a general rule if you don’t feel like figuring out the exact chances – it’s solid advice. A good general rule is that the less dice you have to roll the better the odds are.įor example, if you’ve got two possible ways to score and one method requires 2 rolls, and the other requires 4 rolls, but those rolls have better odds, you’re still more likely to succeed with the plan only requiring 2 rolls. Just keep these things in mind when you’re trying planning out strategies. You don’t need to be statistician to play Blood Bowl. However, an AG5 player can dodge into a single tackle zone with a 83% chance of success (2+). ![]() The odds of making that dodge into one tackle zone is 66% since that requires a 3+. Like knowing an AG4 player has a 5 in 6 (83%) chance of dodging into an open space is good to know (2+). Odds are just as useful information for any dice rolls. Note that it’s only a 1 in 6 (17%) chance you go down though. The odds of a 1D block succeeding when both players have block or wrestle is 2 in 3 or 66%. This is what makes Dwarves and Norse brutal in early league play. The odds of a 1D block succeeding when you have block or wrestle and the opposing player doesn’t is 5 in 6, or 83%. Obviously a 66% chance of success isn’t bad, but unless that block is needed to score and win the game then you’re best not to do it. Knowing those odds before you consider making that block is useful information. The only change is that both down only puts you down and not both of you. The chance of failure is the same if the other player has block. This means the block will fail on both down or attacker down, a 33% chance of failure. ![]() I’ve played a lot of new players who will throw 1D blocks with a player of theirs that has no mitigating skills like block or wrestle.Ī Blood Bowl block die has: 1 defender down, 1 defender stumbles, 1 both down, 1 attacker down, and 2 pushes. I’ve seen far too many games lost by players making non vital rolls just because they could. Just realize that dice are dice, meaning random, and your best bet to winning a game is to minimize how often you roll and what you roll. Your Ogre who is ready to smash someone could suddenly go Bonehead and open up a lane for your opponent to come smash your ball carrier. Now, this is even more true with big guys who have detrimental traits like Bonehead, Wild Animal, Really Stupid, and Loner. If what you’re about to roll won’t impact what you’re doing then consider ignoring it. You should only be rolling dice when you need those actions to work in order to proceed your play. Just because you could make a block or a blitz doesn’t mean you should. ![]() This one I can’t stress enough, sometimes it’s better to not roll dice at all. ![]() ![]() ![]() #Gelatin recipes free#3 Ingredient Sugar Free Strawberry Gummies RecipeĪll you need is 10 minutes, some sweet strawberries, Further Food Premium Gelatin, a blender and gummy molds in any shape you like… and in just a short time, you’ll have a great healthy gelatin recipe.

To use as a thickener, simply mix one tablespoon into at least two ounces of water (or other liquids!) and just add it to your recipes. #Gelatin recipes skin#Since gelatin is derived from collagen, a gelatin supplement can provide the same benefits as collagen! Gelatin, like collagen, supports skin hydration and elasticity, healthy hair and nails, overall gut health and bones and joints. This loss of collagen over time can lead to common sides of aging, including wrinkles, skin that sags, weaker bones, thinner hair and more. Collagen supplements have become popular because they can help replenish the collagen we naturally lose through aging. Collagen, the most abundant protein in our bodies, makes up a significant part of our connective tissues and skin. Gelatin is the result of the partial hydrolysis of collagen. Gelatin is a protein-rich powder, derived from collagen, which contains significant amounts of some important amino acids-such as glycine-that have tremendous health benefits for the entire body. Gelatin is a lot more than an ingredient that gives foods texture and firmness! We are so excited to share some of our favorite gelatin recipes with you. ![]() ![]() ![]()
