Pope Francis  PRAYER INTENTIONS FOR April 2024

April For the role of women
We pray that the dignity and immense value of women be recognized in every culture, and for the end of discrimination that they experience in different parts of the world.


If Children Are Seen as a Burden, Something Is Wrong
A society that does not like to be surrounded by children and considers them a concern, a weight, or a risk, is a depressed society.  
“When life multiplies, society is enriched, not impoverished.

Children are a gift of society, never a possession. Pope Francis

1452, Leonardo da Vinci Polymath Born: April 15, 1452, Anchiano, Italy Died: May 2, 1519, Château du Clos Lucé, Amboise, France; Leonardo da Vinci was an Italian polymath of the High Renaissance who is widely considered one of the most diversely talented individuals ever to have lived.

1473. Nicolaus Copernicus was born in Frombork Poland on February 19, 1473. died on May 24, 1543, in Frombork, Poland
He was the son of Niklas Koppernigk and Barbara Watzenrode. Between 1491 and 1494 he entered the University of Krakow motivated by his uncle. However, in 1496 he moved to the University of Bologna where he pursued careers in law, medicine, Greek, philosophy and at the same time worked as an assistant of the well-known astronomer Domenico da Novara. At the end of 1499, Copernicus graduated from the University of Bologna and traveled to Rome at the beginning of 1500, where he took a science and astronomy course in which he acquired many skills that will help him later on for the formulation of his theories.

Copernicus returned to his native country in 1501 to be appointed canon of the cathedral of Frauenburg, position conceived with the help of his uncle Lucas. Despite having this position, the astronomer was always motivated to complement his studies, so he again traveled to Italy to do complementary studies of law and medicine in the city of Padua, also making a pass through Ferrara where he obtained the title of doctor in canon law in the year 1503.

Around 1523, Copernicus settled definitively in his native country, where he dedicated his time to the administration of the Diocese of Warmia, managed to work as a doctor, performed some administrative positions and began the development of his great field work of astronomy.


Nicolaus Copernicus in his career and life managed to make great contributions to science and astronomy among which stand out:
THE HELIOCENTRIC THEORY
In 1536, Copernicus had almost finished his work on this theory and rumors were already heard throughout Europe about the reason why he had to expedite the completion of his work to start publishing it from different parts of the continent. Despite this pressure, Copernicus delayed a bit the publication of his work for fear of criticism from various groups.
In his theory, Copernicus stated a series of ideas, which explained the conception of the universe:
The celestial movements are uniform, circular, eternal or are formed by several cycles.
The central location of the universe is close to the sun.
The celestial bodies rotate around the sun in orbitals and in order: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Uranus and Neptune were not known at that time.
Stars are distant objects that are still, so they do not rotate around the sun.
The earth performs three movements: the rotation that it does daily, the annual translation and the annual inclination of its axis.
The retrograde movement made by the other planets of the solar system is explained by the movement of the earth.
The distance between the sun and the earth is small compared to the distance between the sun and the stars.
ON THE REVOLUTIONS OF HEAVENLY SPHERES
This was the greatest work that Nicolaus Copernicus could create in his life and was written between 1507 and 1532, were 25 years of work that the world would know in 1543 when it was published by Andreas Osiander.
Copernicus had to study Pythagorean writings, Heraclides Ponticus and other philosophers which he used as a reference to analyze the problem of terrestrial movement. This work was highlighted by being divided into 6 precise and clear books:


1 Overview of the heliocentric theory,
2 and a short explanation of its conception of the world.
3 Basically theoretical, it presents the principles of spherical astronomy and a list of stars (as a basis for the arguments developed in subsequent books).
4 Dedicated mainly to the apparent movements of the sun and related phenomena.
5 Description of the moon and its orbital movements.
6 A concrete explanation of the new system.
Nicolaus Copernicus would die on May 24, 1543, in Frombork, Poland. He could not see the great impact that his work has caused in humanity and science.

Undoubtedly, the legacy left by Nicolaus Copernicus is unique as he is considered the pioneer of modern astronomy, as well as providing bases that served Newton to complete the astronomical revolution by passing from a geocentric universe to a heliocentric cosmos.

To sum up, what is known as the Copernican revolution refers to the formulation of the Heliocentric theory, which states that the earth and other planets revolve around the sun.


1561 Sir Francis Bacon ( Born: January 22, 1561 Died: April 9, 1626,
The person most credited for the "scientific method" was Sir Francis Bacon ( Born: January 22, 1561, The Strand, London, England Died: April 9, 1626, Highgate).
"Without doubt we are paying for the sin of our first parents and imitating it. They wanted to be like gods; we their posterity, still more so.
We create worlds. We prescribe laws to nature and lord it over her. We want to have all things as suits our fatuity (foolishness), not as fits the Divine Wisdom, not as they are found in nature.
We impose the seal of our image on the creatures and works of God, we do not diligently seek to discover the seal of God on things.
Therefore not undeservedly have we again fallen from our dominion over the creation; and though after the Fall of man some dominion over rebellious nature still remained ... we have for the most part forfeited by our pride, because we wanted to be like gods and follow the dictates of our own reason ..."


1564 Galileo di Vincenzo Bonaiuti de' Galilei  15 February 1564 – 8 January 1642) was an Italian astronomer, physicist and engineer, sometimes described as a polymath, from Pisa.


Johannes Kepler 1571 DECEMBER 27 1571November 15, 1630
Johannes Kepler, 
In book five of The Harmonies of the World (1619), Kepler wrote:
 "O, Almighty God, I am thinking Thy thoughts after Thee!...The die is cast; the book is written, to be read either now or by posterity,
I care not which. It may be well to wait a century for a reader, as God has waited six thousand years for an observer."
He advanced Copernicus' heliocentric theory of the solar system, with the planets revolving around the sun instead of the earth.
 He discovered the laws governing planetary motion and pioneered the discipline of celestial mechanics, known as Kepler's Laws, which aided Newton in his formulation of the theory of gravitation.
 His publishing of the ephemeris tables, necessary for plotting star movement, contributed to the theory of calculus.

1608 Evangelista Torricelli  15 October 1608 – 25 October 1647) was a Jesuati, Italian physicist, mathematician, and a student of Galileo. He is best known for his invention of the barometer, but is also known for his advances in optics and work on the method of indivisibles.

1623 Blaise Pascal (1623–1662);  Born: June 19, 1623, Clermont-Ferrand; Died: August 19, 1662, Paris
  a French mathematician, physicist, inventor, writer and Catholic theologian. He was a child prodigy who was educated by his father;  known for "Pascal's Wager," which stated: "How can anyone lose who chooses to become a Christian?
If, when he dies, there turns out to be no God and his faith was in vain, he has lost nothing -- in fact, he has been happier in life than his non-believing friends
.
If, however, there is a God and a heaven and hell, then he has gained heaven and his skeptical friends will have lost everything in hell!"


1627
Robert Boyle, (born January 25, 1627, Lismore Castle, County Waterford, Ireland—died December 31, 1691, London, England), Anglo-Irish natural philosopher and theological writer, a preeminent figure of 17th-century intellectual culture. He was best known as a natural philosopher, particularly in the field of chemistry, but his scientific work covered many areas including hydrostatics, physics, medicine, earth sciences, natural history, and alchemy.


1629 Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens Born: April 14, 1629, The Hague Died: July 8, 1695, The Hague
discovers Saturn’s largest moon, Titan
1655 Christiaan Huygens FRS, also spelled Huyghens, was a Dutch physicist, mathematician, astronomer and inventor, who is widely regarded as one ...of the great figures of the scientific revolution. While his best-known invention is the pendulum clock, Huygens is remembered for a wide range of inventions and discoveries in the fields of physics, mathematics, astronomy, and horology. In addition to creating the influential timekeeping device, Huygens discovered the shape of Saturn's rings, the moon Titan, the wave theory of light, and the formula for centripetal force.

1632
Christopher Wren English architect Born: October 20, 1632, East Knoyle, United Kingdom Died: February 25, 1723, St. James's, London, United Kingdom
Sir Christopher Wren PRS FRS was one of the most highly acclaimed English architects in history, as well as an anatomist, astronomer, geometer, and mathematician-physicist.


1635 Robert Hooke English scientist Born: July 28, 1635, Freshwater, United Kingdom Died: March 3, 1703, London, United Kingdom
Robert Hooke FRS was an English scientist and architect, a polymath, recently called "England's Leonardo", who, using a microscope, was the first to visualize a micro-organism.


1643, Sir Isaac Newton January 4, 1643,  March 20, 1727 1727
Sir Isaac Newton , devoted more time to the study of Scripture than to science;  Principia, 1687, in which he stated:
“This most beautiful system of the sun, planets, and comets, could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent Being...
“All variety of created objects which represent order and life in the universe could happen only by the willful reasoning of its original Creator, whom I call the Lord God.”

1656 Edmond Halley (1656-1742) 8 November [O.S. 29 October] 1656 – 25 January 1742 [O.S. 14 January 1741])
Edmond Halley, English astronomer and mathematician who was the first to calculate the orbit of a comet later named after him. He is also noted for his role in the publication of Isaac Newton’s Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica.
Halley began his education at St. Paul’s School, London. He was the second Astronomer Royal in Britain, succeeding John Flamsteed in 1720. From an observatory he constructed on Saint Helena, Halley recorded a transit of Mercury across the Sun. He realised a similar transit of Venus could be used to determine the size of the Solar System. He also used his observations to expand contemporary star maps.
He aided in observationally proving Isaac Newton's laws of motion, and funded the publication of Newton's influential Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica.
From his September 1682 observations, he used the laws of motion to compute the periodicity of Halley's Comet in his 1705 Synopsis of the Astronomy of Comets. It was named after him upon its predicted return in 1758, which he did not live to see.

Beginning in 1698, he made sailing expeditions and made observations on the conditions of terrestrial magnetism. In 1718, he discovered the proper motion of the "fixed" stars.


1685 23 February 1685 – 14 April 1759 Georg Friederich Händel; a German, later British, Baroque composer who spent the bulk of his career in London, becoming well known for his operas, oratorios, anthems, concerti grossi and organ concertos. Handel received important training in Halle and worked as a composer in Hamburg and Italy before settling in London in 1712; he became a naturalised British subject in 1727. He was strongly influenced both by the great composers of the Italian Baroque and by the middle-German polyphonic choral tradition.

Within fifteen years, Handel had started three commercial opera companies to supply the English nobility with Italian opera. Musicologist Winton Dean writes that his operas show that "Handel was not only a great composer; he was a dramatic genius of the first order." As Alexander's Feast (1736) was well received, Handel made a transition to English choral works. After his success with Messiah (1742) he never composed an Italian opera again. Almost blind, and having lived in England for nearly fifty years, he died in 1759, a respected and rich man. His funeral was given full state honours, and he was buried in Westminster Abbey in London.


1685 Bach; March 31, 1685, Eisenach Died: July 28, 1750 Johann Sebastian Bach & the Bible -"In devotional music, God is always present with His grace"  In 1724, Bach wrote the sacred oratorio St. John Passion, based on chapters 18 and 19 of the Gospel of John in Martin Luther's German translation of Bible. In 1727, Bach wrote the sacred oratorio "Passion of our Lord Jesus Christ according to the Evangelist Matthew," based on chapters 26 and 27 of Luther's Bible.  Bach's "Saint Matthew Passion" was performed in 1829 in Berlin by 20-year-old Felix Mendelssohn. Widowed with 7 children, he remarried and had 13 more. Considered the "master of masters," Johann Sebastian Bach's works not only exhibit mastery of musical composition, also reveal his devout relationship with God.

1707 Leonhard Euler – Born: April 15, 1707, Basel, Switzerland Died: September 18, 1783, Saint Petersburg, Russia.  Euler is the only mathematician to have two numbers named after him: the important Euler's number in calculus, e, approximately equal to 2.71828, and the Euler–Mascheroni constant γ (gamma) sometimes referred to as just "Euler's constant", approximately equal to 0.57721.
He is commemorated by the Lutheran Church on their Calendar of Saints on 24 May—he was a devout Christian (and believer in biblical inerrancy) who wrote apologetics and argued forcefully against the prominent atheists of his time.
Swiss mathematician, physicist, astronomer, geographer, logician and engineer who made important and influential discoveries in many branches of mathematics, such as infinitesimal calculus and graph theory, while also making pioneering contributions to several branches such as topology and analytic number theory. He also introduced much of the modern mathematical terminology and notation, particularly for mathematical analysis, such as the notion of a mathematical function.  He is also known for his work in mechanics, fluid dynamics, optics, astronomy and music theory.


1726 James Hutton 3 June 1726 26 March 1797 a Scottish geologist, physician, chemical manufacturer, naturalist, and experimental agriculturalist. He contributed to what was later called uniformitarianism—a fundamental principle of geology—that explains the features of the Earth's crust by means of natural processes over geologic time.

1766 Dalton 6 September 1766 27 July 1844. John Dalton  was a Quaker Dissenter like Eddington, however Dalton a quaker but he fell into the more christian category. He is best known for introducing the atomic theory into chemistry, and for his research into colour blindness. John Dalton received his early education from his father and from Quaker John Fletcher, who ran a private school in the nearby village of Pardshaw Hall. Dalton's family was too poor to support him for long and he began to earn his living at the age of ten in the service of a wealthy local Quaker, Elihu Robinson. It is said he began teaching at a local school at age 12 and became proficient in Latin at age 14.
 The most important of all Dalton's investigations are concerned with the atomic theory in chemistry; the essential novelty of Dalton's atomic theory is that he provided a method of calculating relative atomic weights for the chemical elements, his priority for that crucial step is uncontested. The idea of atoms arose in his mind as a purely physical concept.
The main points of Dalton's atomic theory, as it eventually developed, are: 1.Elements are made of extremely small particles called atoms. 2.Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass and other properties; atoms of different elements differ in size, mass and other properties.  3.Atoms cannot be subdivided, created or destroyed. 4.Atoms of different elements combine in simple whole-number ratios to form chemical compounds.
5.In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated or rearranged


1738, William Herschel German-born British astronomer, technical expert, and composer
Born: November 15, 1738, Hanover Died: August 25, 1822, Slough
William Herschel, German-born British astronomer, the founder of sidereal astronomy for the systematic observation of the heavens. He discovered the planet Uranus, hypothesized that nebulae are composed of stars, and developed a theory of stellar evolution. He was knighted in 1816.
Sir William Herschel was an accomplished astronomer who not only contributed volumes of work that astronomers use today, but also composed some pretty hip music for his time! He was a true "do-it-yourselfer", building more than one telescope during his career. Herschel was fascinated with double stars.

1750 Caroline Herschel Born: March 16, 1750, Hanover Died: January 9, 1848, Hanover (1750–1848) William’s sister was his astronomical collaborator, a discoverer of comets and the first woman to publish with the Royal Society.

1769 Jane Marcet 1 January 1769 – 28 June 1858; an innovative writer of popular, explanatory science books. She also broke new ground with Conversations on Political Economy (1816), which explains the ideas of Adam Smith, Malthus and David Ricardo.
Marcet produced expository books on chemistry, botany, religion and economics under the general title "Conversations". The first written in 1805, {published 1819 16 editions in England widely plagiarised in America, appearing there in at least 23 editions } as Conversations on Natural Philosophy. Marcet's next book, Conversations on Chemistry, Intended More Especially for the Female Sex was published anonymously in 1805 and became her most popular and famous work. One of the world's greatest scientists, revolutionizing both physics and chemistry, Michael Faraday, born in 1791, read the work of Jane. He was impressed by her work on chemistry and by this it helped him to find a new calling for science and later claimed that it had played a vital role in his career as a chemist. Faraday described Jane as, “When I came to know Mrs. Marcet personally; how often I cast my thoughts backwards, delighting to connect the past and the present; how often, when sending a paper to her as a thank you offering, I thought of my first instructress.”
Summarizing and popularising the work of Humphry Davy, whose lectures she attended, it was one of the first elementary science textbooks. It was accompanied by Marcet's drawings of chemical apparatus and stressed the importance of demonstration by experiment and of theoretical rigour. Jane Marcet was not explicitly identified as the author until the 12th edition appeared in 1832. The book went into 16 editions in England, where it was an early inspiration for the young Michael Faraday. It was widely plagiarised in America, appearing there in at least 23 editions. Marcet's major contribution was her work as an educator. Her works contained few original ideas, but were based on careful study of current theories and a voluminous ongoing correspondence with current scientists. Her works were noted for their precision, accuracy, and thoroughness. She presented science and economics in an informal way, but her simple introductions to often complex subjects were widely appreciated by adults as well as children. Perhaps most importantly, they reached women, including students in prominent women's seminaries, who had not been encouraged to explore the experimental sciences at that time.

1770 Beethoven Born: December 17, 1770, Died: March 26, 1827, Vienna Bonn. Among the greatest of composers, Beethoven took the style and forms of the Classical era to their utmost as a vehicle for personal expression.


1777 Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss: April 30, 1777 -- February 23, 1855. Carl Friedrich Gauss worked in a wide variety of fields in both mathematics and physics including number theory, analysis, differential geometry, geodesy, magnetism, astronomy and optics. His work has had an immense influence in many areas. Gauss is generally regarded as one of the greatest mathematicians of all time for his contributions to number theory, geometry, probability theory, geodesy, planetary astronomy, the theory of functions, and potential theory (including electromagnetism). Works written: Disquisitiones Arithmeticae

1778 Sir Humphry Davy, 1st Baronet 17 December 1778 – 29 May 1829 a Cornish chemist and inventor, who is best remembered today for isolating, by using electricity, a series of elements for the first time: potassium and sodium in 1807 and calcium, strontium, barium, magnesium and boron the following year, as well as discovering the elemental nature of chlorine and iodine. Davy also studied the forces involved in these separations, inventing the new field of electrochemistry.
In 1799, he experimented with nitrous oxide and was astonished at how it made him laugh, so he nicknamed it "laughing gas" and wrote about its potential anaesthetic properties in relieving pain during surgery. He also invented the Davy lamp and a very early form of arc lamp. Davy was a baronet, President of the Royal Society (PRS), Member of the Royal Irish Academy (MRIA), and Fellow of the Geological Society (FGS). Berzelius called Davy's 1806 Bakerian Lecture On Some Chemical Agencies of Electricity "one of the best memoirs which has ever enriched the theory of chemistry."


1791 Michael Faraday 22 September 1791 – 25 August 1867 an English scientist who contributed to the study of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. His main discoveries include the principles underlying electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism and electrolysis. One of the world's greatest scientists, revolutionizing both physics and chemistry, Michael Faraday, born in 1791, read the work of Jane. He was impressed by her work on chemistry and by this it helped him to find a new calling for science and later claimed that it had played a vital role in his career as a chemist. Faraday described Jane as, “When I came to know Mrs. Marcet personally; how often I cast my thoughts backwards, delighting to connect the past and the present; how often, when sending a paper to her as a thank you offering, I thought of my first instructress.”

1822 Louis Pasteur December 27, 1822 , Dole, Jura Died: September 28, 1895, Marnes-la-Coquette
described anaerobic (without oxygen) bacteria:
"The more I study nature, the more I stand amazed at the work of the Creator.
Into his tiniest creatures, God has placed extraordinary properties that turn them into agents of destruction of dead matter."
Rene' Vallery-Radot, The Life of Louis Pasteur, translated by Mrs. R.L. Devonshire, Vol. I, NY: McClure, Phillips & Co., 1902):

"These three things, WILL, WORK, SUCCESS, fill human existence.
WILL opens the door to success both brilliant and happy; WORK passes these doors; and at the end of the journey SUCCESS comes to crown one's efforts.
And so, my dear sisters, if your resolution is firm, your task ... is already begun; You have but to walk forward ...
If perchance you should falter during the journey, a hand would be there to support you.

If that should be wanting, God, who alone could take that hand from you, would Himself accomplish its work."


1827 April 5, 1827 Died: February 10, 1912
Dr. Joseph Lister , Upton House, West Ham, England Died: February 10, 1912, Walmer, Kent, England

stated: "I am a believer in the fundamental doctrines of Christianity." "Listerine" antiseptic mouthwash was named for him.
Dr. Lister told a graduating class:
"It is our proud office to tend the fleshly tabernacle of the immortal spirit, and our path, if rightly followed, will be guided by unfettered truth and love unfeigned.
In pursuit of this noble and holy calling I wish you all God-speed."

1837
Raphael Pumpelly (September 8, 1837 – August 10, 1923) was an American geologist and explorer.
From 1870 to 1871, he conducted the geological survey of the copper region of Michigan, for which he prepared "Copper-Bearing Rocks," being part ii of volume i of the Geological Survey of Michigan (New York, 1873). He was called upon in 1871 to conduct the geological survey of Missouri, and for three years devoted his energies to that task, preparing "A Preliminary Report on the Iron Ores and Coal Fields," with an atlas, for the report of the Geological Survey of Missouri (New York, 1873).

When the U. S. Geological Survey was established in 1879, Pumpelly organized the division of economic geology, and as a special agent of the Tenth Census he planned and directed the investigations on the mining industries, exclusive of the precious metals, and prepared volume xv of the Census Reports on "The Mining Industries of the United States" (Washington, 1886). From 1879-80, he conducted at Newport, Rhode Island, an elaborate investigation for the National Board of Health as to the ability of various soils to filter spores from liquids and from air.
He became a resident of Newport in 1879, and lived there for 44 years.


In 1879 Pumpelly introduced the idea that the numerous lakes of the Canadian Shield are the result of the creation of basins due to the stripping of an irregular mantle of weathered rock by glacier erosion. This idea was subsequently adopted by Alfred Gabriel Nathorst used it to explain the great number of lakes existing in southern Sweden.

In 1881, he organized the Northern Transcontinental Survey for the Northern Pacific Railroad and published parts of his report in the Tenth Census. This survey collected information concerning the topographical and economic features of Dakota, Montana, and Washington territories. He had charge of this work until its cessation in 1884, and also edited the reports of the survey.
He was appointed the Director of the U.S. Geological Survey, New England branch, in 1884.

As COMINCH-CNO, he directed the United States Navy's operations, planning, and administration and was a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was the United States Navy's second most senior officer in World War II after Fleet Admiral William D. Leahy, who served as Chief of Staff to the Commander in Chief. Born in Lorain, Ohio, 23 November 1878. King's office directed the The Doolittle Raid of April 18, 1942 the first U.S. air raid to strike the Japanese home islands during WWII. The mission is notable in that it was the only operation in which U.S. Army Air Forces bombers were launched from the aircraft carrier Hornet  into combat.  King also was responsible for taking Gualdalcanal away from the Japanese thus starting the eventual overthrow of the militant Japanese.  He was also heavily involved in anything Navy such as ships aircraft and their weapons.

Lieutenant General Leslie Richard Groves Jr. (17 August 1896 – 13 July 1970) was a United States Army Corps of Engineers officer who oversaw the construction of the Pentagon and directed the Manhattan Project, a top secret research project that developed the atomic bomb during World War II.

1882 28 December 1882 – 22 November 1944 Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington  was a Quaker consentious ojector, English astronomer, physicist, and mathematician of the early 20th century who did his greatest work in astrophysics. He is famous for his work concerning the theory of relativity. Eddington wrote a number of articles that announced and explained Einstein's theory of general relativity to the English-speaking world. World War I severed many lines of scientific communication and new developments in German science were not well known in England. He also conducted an expedition to observe the solar eclipse of 29 May 1919 that provided one of the earliest confirmations of general relativity, and he became known for his popular expositions and interpretations of the theory.
He was also a philosopher of science and a populariser of science. The Eddington limit, the natural limit to the luminosity of stars, or the radiation generated by accretion onto a compact object, is named in his honour. Around 1920, he anticipated the discovery and mechanism of nuclear fusion processes in stars, in his paper "The Internal Constitution of the Stars". At that time, the source of stellar energy was a complete mystery;
Eddington was the first to correctly speculate that the source was fusion of hydrogen into helium.

1894 Georges Lemaître, (born July 17, 1894, Charleroi, Belgium—died June 20, 1966, Leuven), Belgian astronomer and cosmologist who formulated the modern big-bang theory, which holds that the universe began in a cataclysmic explosion of a small, primeval “super-atom.”

1904 George Gamow (March 4, 1904 – August 19, 1968), born Georgiy Antonovich Gamov, was a Russian-American theoretical physicist and cosmologist. He was an early advocate and developer of Lemaître's Big Bang theory.

1915 Sir Fred Hoyle FRS (24 June 1915 20 August 2001) English astronomer formulated the theory of stellar nucleosynthesis.

1912 Glenn Theodore Seaborg ( April 19, 1912 – February 25, 1999) was an American chemist whose involvement in the synthesis, discovery and investigation of ten transuranium elements earned him a share of the 1951 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. March 28, 1941, Seaborg, physicist Emilio Segrè and Berkeley chemist Joseph W. Kennedy were able to show that plutonium (then known only as element 94) was fissile, an important distinction that was crucial to the decisions made in directing Manhattan Project research.

1921 Paul R. O'Connor Born Feb 3rd 1921 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  Died 2013 March in Minneapolis, Minnesota; 1945 Signed the Szilard petition. Paul R. O'Connor was a junior chemist at the University of Chicago Met Lab during the Manhattan Project as a chemist for Glenn Seaborg. Paul worked on isolating plutonium isotopes. From 1947 to 1973 Paul was a Professor of Chemistry at the University of Minnesota. After World War II, O'Connor earned his Ph.D. He helped revamp chemistry curricula in the 1960s as part of a national effort to promote national math and science education. Because of this work, he was invited to introduce the curriculum in India and spent five years there between 1964 and 1973.

Willis Augustus "Ching" Lee, Jr. (May 11, 1888 – August 25, 1945) was a Vice Admiral of the United States Navy during World War II. Lee commanded the American ships during the second night of the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal (November 14–15, 1942) and turned back a Japanese invasion force headed for the island. The victory ended Japanese attempts to reinforce their troops on Guadalcanal, and thus marked a turning point in both the Guadalcanal Campaign and the Pacific War itself.  Willis Augustus "Ching" Lee Jr. Born: May 11, 1888, Kentucky. Died: August 25, 1945, Maine Nickname(s): Ching.  Battles/wars: Occupation of Veracruz; World War I; World War II: Naval Battle of Guadalcanal.

Reverend Leo Tibesar R.I.P. December 07 1942 - August 31 2017

"Time is not our own and we must give a strict accounting of it."
1606 St. Toribio Alfonso de Mogrovejo Bishop defender of the native Indians in Peru's rights
When we die, we will come to understand how close to us were the Savior, the Mother of God, and all of the Saints,
how they would be tolerant towards us in our weakness, and how they answered our prayers.”
 † 1950 Archbishop Seraphim of Bulgaria
Because we cannot see Christ, we cannot express our love to Him in person.
But our neighbor we can see, and we can do for him or her what we would love to do for Jesus if He were visible.

"26. 12. 1944 Croation flack has shot down near Konjic town one B 24 "Liberator " from 460th USA bomber group. Hit "Liberator" was in flame and fell down on the place called "Vrabac" _Konjic
district `Herzcegovina Yugoslavia' between positions german-croatian against cavalry chetnik brigade.

In the airplane were 10 airmen, 5 of which were killed and others balled out by parachutes seriously
burned by the inflamed airplane.

From 5 alive parachuted airmen 3 landed on the german-ustashi front line and were captured by Croations, and 2 other were saved from Germans and Ustashis by myself after fighting.

One of the captured B24J airmen was released after the war:  he is Lt. John H. Brueckner from the 460th bombgr 762BS.

I brought them in my unit, took, care of them for 15 days, and when they were fit to march, I sent them to an English command, which was attached to Partizan in district Gacko (Hercegovina-Yugoslavia).

 These two airmen are:
   XI) Sgt Edward A Grube_39.571. 879-T43-44U3A_ APO 520 460th bombgr.
   X2) Sgt Walter Slack-14.167.196--T 42-43-USA-APO 520 460th bomb gr.


   From 5 killed airmen, two were identified by the by their recognition disks, which were found on them and they are
   Xl) Millian Fyyie-39.461.376-T43-44B 460th bomb gr. U.S A.
   X2) Thomas 0. Morre_0_711002_T43_44A-460th bomb gr. U. S.A.


   Remaining 3 killed airmen could not be identified because they have not recognition disks on them. All 5 killed airmen were buried on the place called Borcima, district Konjic (Hercegovina-Yugoslavia) on 28/XII/1944. I buried them together near the fallen airplane.
   As Communist, a month ago, shot 14 U.S.A. airmen in Kifino Selo near Nevesinje Hercegovina*Yugoslavia  by the end of November 1944, it is therefore necessary to find out whether airmen Grube and Slack have reached their unit."

I belive in God the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth, and in His only Son our Lord Jesus Christ, Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontious Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried.  He descended amoung the dead; After three days He rose from the dead, He ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty from whence He will come again in glory to judge the living and dead, and His Kingdom will have no end.  I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and Son, through the Father and Son He is worshiped and glorified, and He has spoken through the prophets. I believe in the Holy Spirit,  in one Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, the communion of saints, one baptism for remission of sins, resurection of the dead, and life everlasting Amen.

1 Jesus rises from the dead
THE RESURRECTION 

Sign of the Cross -- Glory be to The Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and forever shall be Amen.  
Our Father, who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom come Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven; give us this day our daily Bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from all evil; Amen
Hail Mary, full of Grace, the Lord is with thee, Blessed art Thou amoung women,
and Blessed is the fruit of Thy womb JESUS, 
Holy Mary, Mother of God pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death; Amen

H.M.  Dr George Freir my Physics Professor and great friend 30 years and to the end of time,  R.I.P George; died at the age of 90 on May 13th 2005. Professor Freier received both his M.S. (1942) and Ph.D. (1949) degrees from the University of Minnesota. He joined the Physics faculty in 1949 and continued until his retirement in 1985. Professor Freier's research area was atmospheric physics; he was often featured in weather related stories by the local press. During his career he led the development of lecture demonstrations both in our department and the broader physics community. The American Association of Physics Teachers presented Dr. Freier with a Distinguished Service Citation in 1983 in recognition of his contributis to undergraduate education, specifically citing his lecture demonstration activities. The University named Tate Lab Room 135 the George D. Freier Lecture Demonstration Facility in 2002 to honor his pioneering work.  Professor Freier is survived by his daughter Susan Freier and husband Harold Levene of San Diego; son David of St. Paul;

For the new martyrs
We pray that those who risk their lives for the Gospel in various parts of the world inflame the Church with their courage and missionary enthusiasm.

For The Gift Of Diversity In The Church
Let us pray that the Holy Spirit helps us recognize the gift of different charisms within the Christian community,

If Children Are Seen as a Burden, Something Is Wrong
A society that does not like to be surrounded by children and considers them a concern, a weight, or a risk, is a depressed society.  
“When life multiplies, society is enriched, not impoverished.

Children are a gift of society, never a possession. Pope Francis

ABORTION IS A MORAL OUTRAGE

 Born Feb. 26, 1937 in Waco, Texas (dies in Minneapolis 2011), Dickson is survived by his wife, Maureen, of Bloomington; a brother Leslie of Montague, Texas; two sons, Scott of Temple, Texas, and Slade of Austin, Texas; and four grandchildren.
He worked in sales, marketing and customer relations for computer companies.
He was also president of the Vikings' branch of NFL Alumni, helping to raise money for children's charities.
He presented one check for over $1 million.
"He was tough on the field, but a real gentleman off it," Bud Grant said. "A friendly philosopher."

Paul Dickson was one of the original Minnesota Vikings, but he also was a Texan, and proud of both. His Lone Star-bred intensity on the defensive line -- "We don't play football any other way in Texas," he said shortly after joining the Vikings -- could grate on teammates who had to face him in practice.  "He was ornery on the field, even in practice," recalled Jim Klobuchar, who covered Dickson and the Vikings for the Minneapolis Star in the 1960s. "It kind of offended the halfbacks, who didn't think he should be knocking them on their can in practice."  "Usually, when it's first team against first team, you're not as aggressive. But that wasn't Paul," linebacker Roy Winston added. "He upset the offensive line like crazy because he went so hard all the time."  That intensity earned him a 13-year NFL career, including 10 seasons and 129 games with the Vikings from 1961 to '70. After his retirement, Dickson remained in Minneapolis, where he died of a blood infection. He was 74.

The 1969 NFL Championship Game was the 37th and final championship game played prior to the AFL-NFL Merger. The winner of the game would go on to play in Super Bowl IV against the champion of the American Football League. The Minnesota Vikings were making their first appearance in the NFL championship game; their opponent, the Cleveland Browns, were making their second straight appearance and fourth in the 1960s. The game was played January 4, 1970 at Metropolitan Stadium, Bloomington, Minnesota.

Although not as severe as the "Ice Bowl" the weather conditions were bitterly cold with a temperature of 8 degrees Fahrenheit.
Cleveland LB Jim Houston suffered frostbite during the game and was hospitalized.

Minnesota had gone 12–2 during the regular season, including a 51–3 defeat of the Browns, and had defeated the Los Angeles Rams in the Western Conference championship a week earlier at Met Stadium. The Vikings were coached by Bud Grant and led on offense by quarterback Joe Kapp and WR Gene Washington. The defense allowed only 133 points (9.50 per game) during the regular season and was led by the front four line known as the Purple People Eaters.

Cleveland had gone 10–3–1 during regular season and had defeated the Dallas Cowboys for the Eastern Conference title. The Browns were coached by Blanton Collier.

Bill Nelsen was the starting quarterback and Gary Collins and Paul Warfield were star wide receivers for the team.
