Mission Statement
The Oral History Program of the Stewart Library was created to preserve the institutional history of Weber
State University and the Davis, Ogden and Weber County communities. By conducting carefully
researched, recorded, and transcribed interviews, the Oral History Program creates archival oral histories
intended for the widest possible use.
Interviews are conducted with the goal of eliciting from each participant a full and accurate account of
events. The interviews are transcribed, edited for accuracy and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewees
(as available), who are encouraged to augment or correct their spoken words. The reviewed and
corrected transcripts are indexed, printed, and bound with photographs and illustrative materials as
available. Archival copies are placed in Special Collections. The Stewart Library also houses the original
recording so researchers can gain a sense of the interviewee's voice and intonations.
Project Description
Business at the Crossroads - Ogden City is a project to collect oral histories related to changes in the
Ogden business district since World War II. From the 1870s to World War II, Ogden was a major railroad
town, with nine rail systems. With both east-west and north-south rail lines, business and commercial
houses flourished as Ogden became a shipping and commerce hub.
After World War II, the railroad business declined. Some government agencies and businesses related to
the defense industry continued to gravitate to Ogden after the war—including the Internal Revenue
Regional Center, the Marquardt Corporation, Boeing Corporation, Volvo-White Truck Corporation,
Morton-Thiokol, and several other smaller operations. However, the economy became more service
oriented, with small businesses developing that appealed to changing demographics, including the
growing Hispanic population.
Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through recorded interviews between a
narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with
the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. Because it is primary material, oral
history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken
account. It reflects personal opinion offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it
is partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable.

Abstract: The following is an oral history interview with Flora Ogan. The interview
was conducted on August 7, 2013, by Avery Pince. Flora discusses her
experiences with 25th Street.
AP: We are here today with Flora Ogan in her home. I'm Avery Pince and here with
me is Woody Johnson. Flora, we are going to just ask you a few questions. We
talked to you before about your experiences on 25th Street and I was hoping that
you could elaborate on some of your stories. You worked at The Standard in the
main building for 30 years, is that right?
FO: I had a total of 40 years in and 36 years full-time and the other four years I was a
freelance writer for them.
AP: Are there any particular stories that stand out to you from when you worked at
The Standard, particularly pertaining to 25th Street?
FO: The only 25th Street story I recall writing was when they bid out the buildings for
the new federal building. The police had one last tour of the opium dens and they
called over to The Standard and invited a reporter to go along and I was brand
new on the staff and nobody else wanted to go, so I went. We went into what
was a barbershop on Kiesel just north of 25th Street that had a gold rail on it. We
went down these stairs and into a barber shop and all of a sudden we opened
the doors and we started going down through walls that were not cement, but
packed dirt. We probably walked to the middle part between Grant and Lincoln.
They would open the doors and say, "This is such and such a place," and you
would look and there were little offices where they used to keep track of whatever
they were doing. The one place I remember was the Senate Café, but that was
the only story I ever did about 25th Street.
I was very familiar with 25th Street and we had a lot of things happen
down there. When I was city editor, I remember the big fire in the Reed Hotel and
we lost lives on that. There was the Windsor Hotel that was always a problem
and it's still a problem for them. I don't think it's filled with anything it's just sitting
down there. At the Marion Hotel there was a lot of drug action and that's where
when I used to drive to work I would see the young women prostitutes that would
stand on the corner and they had a way of putting one leg up over the bumper of
the car and you knew that's who they were. I remember the stories coming in
about the Kier Company taking over the Marion Hotel and rehabilitated it and
they made rooms for these people that were homeless on the street. That sort of
started the clean-up process.
AP: You had mentioned that somebody didn't like that you kept talking about the
opium dens.
FO: Yes. That was about ten years ago. Jim Stravakatis arranged for channel seven
to come up and interview a lot of us and talk about Ogden in the 1950's. One of
the questions came up about 25th Street and the opium dens and I said, "Yes, I
was very familiar with them. A police officer named Lee Howe took me personally
down through them." Afterward, I received word that Spencer Eccles from the
prominent Eccles family thought it wasn't good to have Ogden advertised as
having an opium den down on 25th Street, so they tried to dispute it. Every time
Charlie Trentelman would write a story saying there really wasn't any opium dens
down there I would call him and say, "Charlie, there was. I was in them." If you go
down to the Athenian, right by the front door there's a trap door you can go down
in still.
AP: If they were so embarrassed by the opium dens, why would they invite a
Standard reporter down into them?
FO: The police weren't embarrassed, it was Spencer Eccles was. He didn't want the
opinion of Ogden to be nothing more than the notorious 25th Street. It really did
have a reputation across the country. During the war, the soldiers would all get
off at the trains there and go up 25th Street to the bars. It had a bad reputation
and the leaders of the community, like Spencer, who doesn't even live here now,
didn't want Ogden to be downgraded with the notorious 25th Street and having
an opium den just wasn't what he thought the city ought to have out in front. Jim
Budge, who ran the Ben Lomond Hotel for several years, was in town last week
for Stravakatis' funeral and I said to him, "You once told me there was a door in
the Ben Lomond basement that went into the dens on 25th Street." He said,
"Yeah, it's still there."
AP: That's incredible. Do you remember spending a lot of time on 25th Street as a
kid? You grew up in Ogden, right?
FO: I grew up in Ogden and 25th Street was off limits to me by my parents. When I
was a little girl, if I was good we would get in the car on Saturday night and go
watch the drunks on 25th Street and I remember it was just packed with people.
Then, I'd get an ice cream cone.
AP: So you were allowed to go to 25th Street as long as you were with your parents?
FO: Yes, but in a car. I had a girlfriend whose dad had a barbershop just west of
Washington and when we were junior high kids, we'd go downtown and she
would go to her dad's to get money and I had to wait up on the corner because
my folks told me never to go down 25th.
AP: Just the one street, huh? You were okay on 24th?
FO: Yes. It just had a reputation and this is what Spencer Eccles didn't like was the
reputation that had built up over the years about 25th Street. If you'll notice, in
the stories run now it's, "the once notorious 25th Street," it's just there.
AP: It's part of the history.
FO: Yes. When the war was over, the Italian prisoners of war were turned loose and
they hung out on 25th Street. They would pack right in front of the corner of 25th
and Washington and whistle at girls.
AP: Did you ever interact with them?
FO: No, I was young. That's when I was a teenager. I remember seeing them though.
AP: A lot of them stayed here.
FO: A lot of them did. Riggo had a restaurant on 28th and Washington and he
married an Ogden girl and Miconi Tile, he married an Ogden girl and stayed
here. I think they had to go home and then come back, but they did. They'd
watch the Germans very closely so they weren't downtown at all.
AP: They stayed away from 25th Street I guess, if they stayed at all.
FO: They were always hooked up to cuffs on their legs and handcuffs and stuff. They
just turned the Italian prisoners loose.
AP: When they were still prisoners?
FO: Italy surrendered much earlier and that's when they turned them loose. A lot of
them went to work out at the Arsenal out of Hill Air Force Base to finish up the
AP: That's good. Do you remember The Standard ever having a hard time with 25th
Street as far as getting stories or interacting with people about it?
FO: I don't. I'm sure that there were a lot of stories written about it. By the time I
became active in the Standard, it had pretty much died down, you know, the
notoriety. I parked my car just off of 25th Street in a parking lot and I remember if
I had to work after dark I was scared and run really fast or have somebody walk
me to my car.
AP: Where was The Standard located?
FO: It was at 24th and Kiesel in the Kiesel building which is still there. They moved
shortly after I started working there to the old armory on 23rd and Adams. It's
gone now but it was nice new offices when they moved up there, because they
rehabbed the whole thing and that's where I worked the whole time.
AP: You said that your family worked in Ogden or your family owned a business
FO: My father worked on 24th And Kiesel in Read Brothers where the horse was on
the building. Then, in 1950 he opened his own store in Roy and that's when the
family all moved out here. I grew up on 30th and Jefferson. I went to Washington
Elementary School and Junior High and Ogden High School.
AP: You mentioned the fire in the Reed Hotel.
FO: I just remember going up 25th Street and going to work that morning and the fire
trucks were everywhere. I think there were a couple of fatalities in it. It was where
some of the people that patronized the state lived. It was never really a high
class hotel down 25th Street. At one time, there was the Healy Hotel right on the
corner across from union station and I remember it, it had a beautiful staircase
and I think it was a pretty popular hotel, but the others on 25th were just flop
houses mostly.
AP: So the Healy was the higher class one and the others were just for people
coming and going.
FO: It would be your homeless people that would go in for a night and flop. I don't
know where they found them. The most active place down there for people to
stay was the Porters and Waiters Club. They had a reputation of being for the
African Americans, but everybody went there.
AP: Did you ever go there?
FO: No. the only time I went down there was when we had an editor who would go on
a drunk for several days and when he wanted to sober up he'd go over there and
Annabelle Weekly would take care of him. One time he was ready to come back
and I drove down and got him and that's the only time I was in there.
AP: What was your perception when you were in there?
FO: Fine. I got to be pretty good friends with Annabelle because she would come
down and give us stories. There were a lot of features done on Annabelle and
her husband.
AP: So she would come to you, you wouldn't go to her?
FO: We would converse on the phone. Another notorious couple on 25th Street that
we did a lot of stories on was the Rose Room. I can't remember their names now
but she was famous for driving around in a purple convertible.
WJ: Rosie and Bill Davies.
FO: Yes. I just remember seeing her in her purple Cadillac. That was very famous.
That was during the era of Mayor Peery when he opened up 25th Street. That
was before I was writing so I really wasn't involved in the stories, but they were
still in operation when I worked at The Standard.
AP: The Davies were?
FO: Yes. The purple Cadillac was still around for a long time.
AP: So you weren't such a big fan of the politics?
FO: Oh I love politics.
AP: Mayor Peery's shaping up of 25th Street?
FO: I don't think that there was all that much political activity about 25th Street. Harm
Peery took over and he sort of opened up the city to a lot of vices. He did a lot of
good, but he wasn't one to make the law this or that. He wanted action and he
got it.
AP: What kind of action?
FO: Like Pioneer Days and he used to have a carnival down by the old Municipal
Building and he was riding around town on a horse. It was his family that built the
Egyptian Theater and the Ogden Theater, so they were very good humanitarians
and philanthropists too. He really had a lot of action when he was mayor. That's
when I was just sort of in between college and going to work. I was raising
AP: But you were still sort of aware of what was going on?
FO: Oh sure, I've always been aware.
AP: Did you ever go to any of the shops on 25th Street?
FO: I haven't. There's one little shop down there I'd like to see now. I go down there
now all the time to Karen's and we go to the Athenian and I go to Rooster's and
it's just amazing what's happened down there.
AP: You didn't go there beforehand?
FO: No.
AP: Was it because you were never down there or because of the reputation?
FO: Well, I was never down there and I was always told to stay away from there, so I
AP: Even as an adult?
FO: Even when I was an adult. When I became an adult it was when it was in
shambles. It came up from where it was during the war and it had this period of
just falling apart. All of a sudden, the city decided to do something with it and I
think I told you about Scott Parkinson, who was the planner for the city. They
started it and there was a fellow that had a little shop of kitchen goods. I can't
think of his name now, he was from Riverdale. He worked with Scott and they
started building it up down there. The first time I went down there to eat was
when the building where the Athenian is was a little coffee shop that was run by
Dr. Reis' wife. I remember going there and I was so excited to think that there
was a nice place like that on 25th Street to go to. Then Rooster's came in, and
there have been several people that had shops down there. I can't think of her
name now, but there was a woman who had her gift shop down there and was in
charge of the Christmas Village. She was very instrumental in getting 25th Street
going. She was married to Scott Buehler, but used her maiden name down there.
I do take pride in 25th Street and I think it's wonderful that we've got it, to
watch the transition was something. About a year ago the Salt Lake Tribune did a
feature story on Ogden and what it has to offer. The reporter was somebody that
I knew from the system and he just barely covered what was going on in Ogden.
I sat down and wrote him a letter and I told him all about 25th Street and that he
could get on the Front Runner and get off and walk up there. I told him about
Dinosaur Park and the Aerospace Museum and, bless his heart, he came and
brought his wife and stayed overnight and went everywhere and then wrote a
beautiful story about the renaissance of 25th Street and all that Ogden had to
offer. 25th Street is a real attractive place for tourists now and I think we're
marketing it, I know we're trying, but people still see it as this notorious street
where all the drunks hung out and that isn't it anymore, it's a beautiful place.
AP: You told me last time that you wrote the lead story on Marshall White.
FO: I wrote the original story on his shooting. It was about three years after I started
full-time at the Standard. The paper was out, but not on press yet and all the
other editors had gone to lunch and told me to listen for the phones. On the
police phone they were saying, "Michael Jones has escaped, he's going over on
Fowler Avenue." I was sitting there listening to all this and finally they said, "Doc
White has got him cornered in a house on the 100 block of Fowler." Pretty soon it
said, "Doc White's been shot, get an ambulance." I'm thinking, "I'm alone. What
do I do? We've got a policeman shot and a deadline." I listen to it and they said,
"We've got him out of the house, we've captured the kid and we're going to St.
Benedicts." I wrote a note to the city editor and said, "I've gone to St. Benedicts
Hospital, Marshall White has been shot, I will call you." I went up there and I got
there just as they pulled in and watched what was going on with him. I knew he
was a goner, so I called in the story about him getting shot. I used what I heard
on the police radio and had a page one story.
AP: He spent a lot of time on 25th Street and did a lot of Civil Rights demonstrations
and things.
FO: I don't remember a lot of demonstrations. I don't think anybody really cared all
that much. Did you talk to Velma Saunders? She had a home down there and
she used to campaign all the time about how they were being treated down
there. She got a stop light on 26th and Wall so that people could get across
there. There was a rendering plant just west of the Union Depot and the odor
was just atrocious. It would waif over the town and she kept going to the city
council complaining about that rendering plant and they ended up closing it. That
was part of the start of the renaissance of 25th Street.
AP: Cleaning up the area around it?
FO: Yes. There was a tunnel that went down to the trains from the west side of the
depot and I remember they filled that in because the homeless people were
sleeping down in that tunnel.
AP: Did you ever go down into that tunnel before they closed it?
FO: I remember being down in it once and I think I went on a train somewhere when I
was a little kid and I remember going down there.
AP: Did you go to the train depot often as a kid even though you didn't spend a lot of
time on 25th Street?
FO: Had I been to the train depot a lot?
AP: Were you down there as a kid?
FO: When I was in high school they had a beanery which is a restaurant. They called
them beaneries in train stations. After dates we used to go down there and eat at
the beanery. I remember there was a little gift shop and I would look in there, but
I didn't hang out down there. I didn't' see trains at all hardly. There was a laundry.
The laundry building is still standing down there on the southwest corner. The
beanery was torn down and it used to be on the south end of the depot about
where those trains are on display. It was a very nice restaurant to eat in.
AP: You went to Weber State, right?
FO: Yes. I went to Weber State when it was downtown.
AP: What was that like?
FO: I can't compare it to anything. I had a good education there for a couple of years.
I had always wanted to be a writer and I was on the school paper at Ogden High
School and I had a little scholarship and I went over to Weber State when it was
in the Moench Building. I'm not sure I remember the name of the teacher, I can
see him, he had a lot of gray hair, but not long. Some of the people I went to
school with were Dean Hurst and Lawrence Burton, they were all up there. I
remember seeing them at dances over in the old Weber gym building.
I was working for the telephone company part-time and going to school
and they needed an operator out on the Wendover Air Force Base and they
asked me to go out there for the summer. I met my husband out there and got
married, so I didn't go back to Weber State until after my third child was born and
then I started going back. I went in the buildings by the Stewart Tower which are
kind of like a barracks and I took some classes up there. Right after that I went
full-time at the paper.
AP: Even being so close to the notorious two-bit street going to Weber and working at
the main building, you still somehow managed to avoid 25th Street?
FO: 25th Street was never an issue with me actually. I just knew it existed and that I
was supposed to stay away. When I went to the paper I drove it and I would see
what was going on down there, but I didn't hang out there.
AP: That's interesting. Did any of your family go down there? Did your dad spend any
time down there?
FO: No. My dad was very religious.
AP: So the street made him nervous.
FO: Well, he was at church. He did take me down there on Saturday night to watch
the drunks. The interesting thing I said to Bob Hunter, who runs the United Way
and has been a commissioner, I said, "Have you been contacted?" I told him you
were doing 25th Street and he said, "Well, I was just a kid then. The only thing I
remember about it is my dad used to take me down there to watch the drunks." I
thought, "I guess that was every family's entertainment on Saturday night." You'd
have to line up to get a parking place.
AP: Really?
FO: Oh yes.
AP: I've heard that from a few people.
FO: They'd say, "If you're a good girl today we'll go down and watch the drunks."
AP: It sort of sets your idea of how 25th Street is pretty early.
FO: Yes, exactly.
AP: Where would you go get ice cream?
FO: At the barrel on 27th and Washington. It's gone. They took the barrel and made it
into the trock and then the trock moved down on Kiesel, but there was a big
barrel and it served ice cream.
WJ: You were talking about the hotels on 25th Street and only the Healy was the
classier one. What kind of stories do you remember from the others?
FO: Probably the fact that maybe they were taking it down was the only story I
remember coming out about it. The only time we would do stories down there is if
we had a murder or something like that. We didn't really patronize it as a source
for news all that much. The Rosie thing was pretty much in the news a lot with
the Helena Hotel, I think that was her place. If it wasn't its right next door. As far
as a lot of coverage down there, I don't have any recollection of doing coverage
down there other than the normal crime stories. The crime stories and the whole
story about that were just these poor people wandering around down there with
no place to go and annoying other people and that was the story. It wasn't that
there was a lot of crime going on. There was a murder down there. Linda Odas'
father got murdered down there. There were a lot of businesses down there like
the Cutrubus business was a place with candy distributors and cigarette
distributors and they had a lot of people worked out of that store. Homer says he
remembers being a little tiny kid working down there. Doug Black's father had a
store down there and Linda Odas' father had a store down there. There were a
lot of good little stores down there.
AP: Linda was your friend from college, right?
FO: Yes. I thought she might still be teaching up there, but she could be retired. She's
about my age.
AP: Did you know her when her father was killed?
FO: I did not know her other than her affiliation with Weber State and talking to her a
little bit. When she was up at Weber she was quite prominent up there. I can't
remember what she taught, but she was a very active teacher.
AP: So, Rose Davies was in the news fairly regularly?
FO: Quite often. They knew how to cultivate a news story if they needed it.
AP: Milk it a little bit.
FO: Yes. A lot of people do that.
AP: Do you think that most of what was printed about her is true?
FO: I'm sure some of it had to be true. She had a big fur and she'd ride around in that
Cadillac. She was colorful.
AP: Quite the character.
FO: I think she was a friend of Harm Peery too, the mayor. I hope you got a lot on him
because he had a lot to do with 25th Street.
AP: We've heard quite a bit about him. Do you think they were friends with each
FO: I don't know how much they were friends, but I'm sure they associated in some
AP: You never met her?
FO: No, I don't think I did. I've tried to think if I ever did, but all I did was see her. She
was very prominent driving around in that Cadillac.
AP: You were the editor by that point, right?
FO: I was the city editor in 1969 and then I was editorial editor in 1981, so I was only
a reporter for ten years.
AP: Do you remember any sort of big or notorious events? You said there were a
couple of murders down there, but was there anything else?
FO: I remember that one specifically, but those homeless people would kill one
another once in a while.
AP: Would you run a story on that?
FO: Oh sure. We had a police reporter that followed whatever was going on.
WJ: You were around when 25th Street was frequented by the trains and you were
around when the trains no longer came and 25th crumbled and you've been
around on the rebuilding of 25th Street. Do you find that it is an effective rebuild?
Do you think that documenting the history to preserve it, but having the modern
25th Street incorporate some of that history is effective?
FO: My feeling is that they have done an exceptional job of restoring 25th Street
because everybody that's down there seems to want to claim part of the history,
but they want to show that we're now a new modern city. I'm amazed. My son
moved away and when I brought him home for a visit he couldn't believe this had
happened to Ogden. It was such a wonderful transition to see from when he was
a little boy to adulthood. I think they've done a marvelous job and I think that the
Browning people are still helping down at the Union Station and they're
committed to make that place a tourist attraction, yet comfortable for the locals. I
think they've accomplished it. It's beyond any expectation I ever had.
AP: They're still pulling a little bit from the history. If you drive around you can see
some of the signs that remind.
FO: Oh sure. They've done a wonderful job of promoting. They always end up with all
these little programs like car shows and we used to have a street festival uptown
and now it's down 25th. They've done a marvelous job.
AP: Do you think that people on 25th Street are proud of the history?
FO: They've got to be proud because they've done a wonderful job.
AP: Well, do you think they're proud of the history?
FO: The earlier history? I don't know how much. Karen worked for my dad's store at
one time and that's where I met her. She had this dream that she wanted a
restaurant so she started on the north side facing the south up somewhere
around the Athenian; it was so popular that she moved down to this new building.
People that are down there, a lot of them probably remember some of the historic
AP: Do you have any other special stories you want to tell us before we conclude the
FO: We talked about it at coffee about some of the characters that used to walk the
streets. There was a little old, I don't know if he was a Catholic Priest, but his
name was Dominguez or something like that and he had a little shop up 25th
Street. He used to walk around town with this tree limb as a cane and when the
girls would walk by he'd flip their skirts up. The police were after him all the time.
We talked about him at coffee. There was also an older woman that wore a black
hat like a witch and a black outfit and she had a baby carriage and pushed a doll
around town all the time. We were talking about how we don't have those
characters anymore.
WJ: Do you remember a drunk that went by "Airplane?" I've heard a lot of stories
about Airplane and it would have been during the 1970's. He was a man that was
always on 25th Street and drunk and pretending to be an airplane.
FO: I haven't heard about that one.
WJ: With your stories of the characters and also seeing the drunks when you were a
kid, what type of characters do you remember that were drunk when you went
down with your family and watched them?
FO: I just remember a lot of people staggering around down there. A lot of them were
soldiers during the war. They'd get off the train and come up the street. When I
was just viewing 25th Street, there was no one in particular that I remember. Of
course, I knew about Rosie and the Porters and Waiters and there was the
Pappas family down there. I went to school with Tom Pappas and I remember
him telling me that he could go down to his dad's store, but he couldn't go out on
the street. That was in high school. That was The Club, down on the lower end.
AP: Do you still talk to the Pappas'?
FO: They're all gone.
AP: There is a couple left.
FO: The last one I remember was Leah and she used to come in my office all the
time and visit with me, but Tom died early. I think there's a George that's still
around, but I don't know George. Tom was very popular in high school and his
father ran the club.
AP: You didn't go to the club downtown, you just knew about it?
FO: I've never been to the club. The only ones I've been in are the Athenian,
Roosters, and Karen's. I remember eating in the Senate before it was torn down.
I don't remember a lot, but it was run by a Chinaman.
AP: The Senate?
FO: Yes. There was a place called Ross and Jacks and it was very popular down
there and I remember walking over to Ross and Jacks when I worked at The
Standard, but right after that it go torn down. When they tore down the Broom
Hotel, they tore down Ross and Jacks.
AP: Did they share a wall or were they close together?
FO: They just tore out that whole face of 25th Street and built the new bank. Right on

MADISON, Wis. (WTAQ) - Both candidates for the State Supreme Court are not happy that labor activists want to turn their non-partisan race into a referendum on GOP Governor Scott Walker.
The court would lose its 4-3 conservative majority if incumbent David Prosser loses to challenger JoAnne Kloppenburg three weeks from Tuesday. And Kloppenburg's supporters were urging those attending last weekend's pro-union rally in Madison to vote for her as "the next step" in their fight.
The Supreme Court could eventually decide the fate of the law Walker signed that virtually ends collective bargaining by public unions. And some believe a liberal court would have a better chance of overturning it.
Christina Brey of the state's largest teachers' union says educators are watching this election to make sure that, "the political power grabbing that the governor has engaged in doesn't go unchecked."
But the Kloppenburg campaign is trying to distance itself from that kind of talk. Campaign manager Mellissa Mulliken says Kloppenburg would remain impartial if she's elected. And Prosser's manager, Brian Nemoir, says those who are trying to make it a referendum on Walker are unfair to Prosser. He says any suggestion that Prosser marches in lockstep to Walker or anyone else has a, "misunderstanding of who this man is."
Although he's a former Republican Assembly Speaker, Prosser has taken pride in being fair in his 12 years on the bench.

Exploring the World in a Ford GPA SEEP
As part of the original 1940 specifications for the jeep, the army included a desire for the vehicle to have 'Amphibian characteristics'. This capability was dropped during the development phase. However, in 1941, once jeep prototypes had been ordered, the military revisited the need for a jeep-like amphibious vehicle.... Like many other military vehicles, leftover GPAs were sold as surplus. Several would-be adventurers thought, with a few modifications, the vehicles could prove useful for traveling long distances. read more ......
The Airborne Lightweight Jeep Program
During World War II, getting vehicles, especially Jeeps, onto the ground where military personnel could utilize them was of paramount importance for obvious reasons. But, how to accomplish that goal was less clear. A variety of strategies were considered, including turning jeeps into gliders (see bottom of article) or helicopters (rotabuggy) so they could fly themselves. However, both of these ideas proved unsuccessful. Therefore, the military chose to stick with transporting vehicles by plane. In order to make flights more efficient, they formed a plan to produce light duty, air-droppable jeeps. They called these jeeps extra lights (EL), lightweight jeeps or jeeplets. read more ......
The O.E. Szekely Mobile APU Navy Jeeps
Like the other branches of the military, the Navy adopted the jeep early on as a valuable 'Reconnaissance Car'. Certainly, many Navy jeeps filled the recon role, such as serving officers as transport vehicles or providing shore patrol units with offroad capabilities. However, one particular application of the jeep was unique to the Navy: The use of jeeps as APU (Auxilary Power Units) on aircraft carriers.

Regarding the new easy edit feature= I WILL NOT change first names to be something different than what the headstone reads as they become unsearchable. So if the headstone reads "Peggy" but you want it to be Margaret, no. It will be declined.
When doing searches in southern Wisconsin, please do all kinds of funky ways of searching. Don't take a memorial on here as being correct either. There is some contributor who lives in another state who has taken control of a 20 county area and their memorials in many cases are way off. He has Eastern European first and last names totally mangled, dates of death 50 years off, women linked to their "spouse" when it is really their husband's father, men and women's names switched (like Michael listed as Michelle, Rudy listed as Ruth), people plopped in the wrong cemetery (just because spouse is buried there doesn't mean they are) and many more errors. In one recent case they saw an obit and found the already deceased spouse on here. The person who posted the spouse says at the top they are guessing the woman is buried there. So guess what, the newly deceased spouse is also plopped into that cemetery. They are not there! Another case the husband was already dead. So they found a man in the same area with the same name and linked them as married and they put her in the same cemetery. Unfortunately this woman is now listed as the spouse of her father-in-law and she is plopped as being buried with him, not her husband. I recently got a box of every single obituary from Rock/Walworth County's from 1998-2006. In trying to go through these and putting the info on here, I have found just dozens of horribly done memorials by this contributor. And they continue to put erroneous information on here. Much of it is now indexed by Ancesty.com as fact! Just because some contributor has high numbers doesn't mean the stuff they put on here is true.
All requests for transfers must contain your exact relationship to the deceased.
Please do not use my headstone photos from this website to post on any other website or to make duplicate memorials on this one. All headstone pictures uploaded by Find A Grave contributors are copyrighted by the contributors and you MUST ask permission to use them and if given that permission, you must post credit. Ancestry provides a link feature for you to add a link to Find A Grave memorials. Please read the ancestry Terms of Use regarding copyrighted photos and also the official findagrave FAQ's regarding photos and copyrights.
DO NOT send me requests for memorials through my e-mail! Use the edit tab, that is what it is there for.

How's that for Ironic?
And how about this. My IBM Thinkpad is busted because the power cord got bumped a few to many times since Win98. Now I use that offical IBM laptop bag for my Mac. IBM used to make the PowerPC processor for the mac, but my mac has an Intel inside. And it has a mag safe power adapter. Maybe I should get a new bag before the handle <break>s!
It is ironic!

Banks urged to show cash protection
May 29 2012
The savings safety net has urged financial firms to give clearer information to customers about how much of their cash will be protected if the company goes bust.
Banks are to be compelled to display notices in branches and on their websites to make people more aware that their deposits are protected up to £85,000 if the bank goes bust, under plans outlined by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) in December.
The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), which protects consumers when financial institutions go bust, said the plans are a "step in the right direction", but urged firms to go beyond the FSA's minimum requirements.
Building societies and credit unions will also need to put posters and stickers up and foreign banks with branches in the UK which are not covered by the scheme have to state this as well as saying which other national scheme is providing protection, the FSA has said previously.
The FSA is publishing its new minimum requirements for deposit takers to display information about the scheme.
Mark Neale, FSCS chief executive, said: "The banking crisis shows how important it is for consumers to have clear information about FSCS protection. We never again want to witness the run on a bank because people do not know their money is protected. Since then, the industry has improved the quality of information it gives to consumers about FSCS.

I assume we all know what a crackship is, but if not, here's a lovely definition straight from the Hannah's Dictionary:
Crackship (crack-ship), noun → A stupidly unrealistic ship that will never happen except in fanfictions (Like Jane/Paul, Alec/Renesmee, Jasper/Bella, Emmett/Bella, Bella/Mike, so on) but we still ship it anyways because we love it.
Anyways, this a contest celebrating lovely crackships that you ship! I'm sure we all have at least one and they don't have to be Twilight universe. If you're in a roleplay and you ship two of the people together in your roleplay but you know it's never gonna happen, go ahead and make a banner. Or if you ship actresses and actors that you know is never going to happen, go ahead and make a banner.
Honestly, it's just a fun thing that shows some of the weirdest things you ship. And trust me, you won't get frowned down upon!
→Six entries maximum
→All of them must be in January 19, because that's close to when voting starts.
→If you still don't get what a crackship is, just let me know and I'll really explain it in great detail. ☺
→Have fun<3
And we're off like superman. <3
Views: 160
Oh wow! These are great. :) Um, I feel stupid but who's the ship? Dean and someone?
Ive alwaya loved the thought of those two togather.
Dean My favorite male charcter
rooke my favorite female charcter.
I just think they'd be perfect for each other.

Observer Group wins 17 awards
Date: July 15, 2009
by: The Observer Staff
The Observer Group won 17 awards, including five first-place awards, at the Florida Press Association's "Better Weekly Newspaper Awards" July 11, in Palm Beach. The Observer Group, whose publications include The Longboat Observer, The East County Observer, The Sarasota Observer and The Gulf Coast Business Review, garnered more awards than any other newspaper company competing in the annual contest. Seventy-two weekly newspapers submitted more than 1,500 entries.
The Observers competed in Division A, the more-than-15,000 circulation category, and The Gulf Coast Business Review competed in Division C, the under- 7,000 circulation category.
The Longboat Observer picked up three first-place awards: Editorial Page (Matt Walsh, editor), Front Page Layout (Nancy Schwartz, assistant managing editor/design) and Sports Feature Story (Robin Hartill, community editor).
Contest judges deemed Walsh's editorials as "devastatingly detailed editorials on local government's lapses and misjudgments. Clever writing — conversational, easy read. Broad grasp of local issues, well-deliberated."
Schwartz's front-page design had judges citing her "great, consistent look — modern, yet gets news up front. Colors are subtle but impactful."
Judges' comments about Hartill's sports-feature story, "Longboaters take steps for breast cancer," included, "Good description, puts the reader in the middle of the activity. Not just a collection of quotes pretending to be a feature story." Hartill also received an honorable mention in Business Writing for her story on St. Armands Circle property owners fighting for property tax re-assessments.
Longboat Observer Managing Editor Jessica Luck took second place in Outdoor Writing for "An ounce of hope," a story about Warren Girle and Billy Harris' fishing-tournament victory — their first in four attempts. Judges said, "A great fish story — well-told and well-structured." Luck also garnered third place in Spot News Photo for her photograph of Vice Mayor Bob Siekmann and David Brenner reacting to Siekmann's commission-seat victory.
The Longboat Observer placed third in Overall Graphic Design and received honorable mention for General Excellence. For a complete listing of Observer Group awards, see the box below.

Ways To Enjoy the Holiday Season
The weather has turned chilly, and the calendar on your desk is getting thinner. All clues that the end of another year is upon us and that the holiday season has arrived in full force. For all of us, this is the time of year that we have come to look forward to and/or to dread. It is a time for
special gatherings with family, friends, and co-workers. Or, maybe this is a time of year when one remembers a loved one who is no longer among us. Still, maybe this is a time of year when being alone and the feeling of loneliness is a concern. The holiday season is also a time of added pressures to do more with the same amount of time and sometimes less energy to do it with.
In any case, this is the time of year when many of us become susceptible to holiday stress that may lead to depression. But it doesn't have to be that way. There are practical strategies you can follow
that can help manage the stress and overwhelm, and ultimately reduce the incidence of depression. Following are a few helpful ideas to assist you with making the most of the holiday season.
Manage Holiday Stress—Don't Let Stress Manage You
- Keep expectations for the season realistic; therefore, set goals that are reasonable for you. Before beginning a task, make a list and prioritize the important activities.
- Recognize your own limitations and don't over-do it. There is no need to attend every social gathering or to create the perfect social event.
- Learn to delegate the holiday chores. It is not necessary to try to do everything by yourself.
- Know your spending limit and stay on budget. With today's economy and cutbacks, it is important to respect one's financial limitations.
- Take a time out. After completing a holiday task, take time to relax and make sure to get enough rest.
- Remember to eat healthy, nutritious food, as you would do any other time of the year. Also, drink plenty of water and juices. Maintaining a healthy diet will help support your immune system, reduce fatigue, and fight illness.
- Try to maintain an exercise routine. Researchers have found that exercise is an excellent treatment to alleviate depression.
- The holiday season does not mean that you will not have difficult feelings. It is important to acknowledge one's feelings, even if you keep them to yourself.
- Try to look to the future with an optimistic perspective despite difficulties of the past. Find ways to see the good in challenging experiences.
- Participate in holiday activities that are free and light-hearted. Plan to attend festive activities that do not require large amounts of travel time.
- Volunteer for a charitable organization(s) that reach out to the needy. Or contribute to community food drives in your neighborhood.
- Spend time with supportive and caring friends and/or family, if possible. Yet, should you find yourself alone, then be certain to schedule enjoyable activities into your free time.
- In conclusion, try a little laughter. Research psychologists have found that humor improves one's sense of overall well being.
Sometimes it is necessary to ask for assistance in order to get through difficult times.

...for a permissions monitoring app
(69 stars)
Does a great job of categorizing things. Short of manually auditing all my apps and comparing them/their req'd permissions to the results of aSpotCat, I don't know how to tell how accurate it is, but I think we can assume it's accurate. Also, 5-star review #666! :D
(69 stars)
Absolutly Great!!!
(69 stars)
I'm sure it'll run as well as all of the other apps by Sam Lu. He makes great programs and I've never had a problem with any of his work. I'll update after I run this.
(69 stars)
Whether you're concerned about security or just plain curious, aSpotCat is a powerful application that not only shows what permissions all of your applications and games are using, but also explains in a logical manner what those permissions do... Highly recommended!
(69 stars)
I hope this work i had try a lot of sd naw of them didn't work .

Rebecca show the Swivel for followers.
For more information about the swivels check out this video: Swivels
- Keep the knees slightly bent at all times for your basic swivel. Don't straighten the leg that is pushing off. Don't straighten the other leg and reach for your next step. Yes, this will mean you need to develop your leg strength. That will come.
- Keep the ankles soft, not locked into position. For my basic swivel, my forefoot takes the impact of the step, and my ankle flexes so that my heel nearly touches the floor.
- Which means that you don't want to swivel on your tippy-toes all the time. It can be a very pretty variation, though.
- Pulse. Uber important. Imagine your legs are juicy pogo sticks.
- Use the leg muscles to push out of the ground from step to step. Don't fall, don't reach. Push.
- Use the abdominal muscles to create rotation in the torso between steps.
- Rotation begins in the mid back (where your vertebrae have the most rotational flexibility, as opposed to the low back, which has very poor rotation).
- The hips (eg pelvis), at the bottom of the spine, get quite a lot of rotation relative to the head, at the top of the spine. The legs and feet may have slightly more rotation, provided the rest of your technique is solid.
- Even when your feet are really wide for swivels, keep your torso somewhere in the middle. You don't need to move your center of gravity ALL the way over each foot when you step.
- OMG arms!! Keep 'em steady-ish, out away from your torso rather than glued to your sides.
- Practice lots. Increase your speed slowly so your movements don't get sloppy.

-I'm in my 3rd year of university with 1 year of college to go. When I graduate, I will be over $30,000 in debt.
-My part time job doesn't even provide me with enough money for my basic needs.
-I am $700 in credit card debt.
-I don't even know if I will be able to find a job when I graduate with two bachelor degrees and a post-graduate college diploma.
It's sad that to get any kind of decent job, we are required to have an education. It's sad that attaining said education, causes an overwhelming amount of debt, before we even have a chance to get into the work place.
I hear students all around me speaking about their increasing amount of debt, the lack of food and personal supplies, and lack of finances to make ends meet. Why is this the "norm"? Something is wrong with this picture.
It's a basic human right to become educated. It's also a basic human right to be able to live…so why is that being taken away from us?
I am the 99%
I am so, so scared that this will be me. I've been looking for work for a year since graduation, and nothing. I've been...
My personal contribution to how I am a part of the 99%. This is just about myself, I didn't even write about my family's...

Building an Environmental Education Collection for K-12 Teachers, Spencer, Roxanne M.
Education for Sustainability (EfS) is now a core value in Western Kentucky University's Strategic Plan, and sustainability issues are being incorporated into many programs and disciplines. In this article, I discuss the building of K-12 environmental education resources within the Educational Resources Center (ERC) at WKU. The ERC is a curriculum and children's literature collection that is a campus branch of the WKU Libraries. In the course of evolving conversations about building core collection materials for K-12 educators, some Education for Sustainability (EfS) resources across academic disciplines in higher education are included.

The Roseville Fire Department has undergone a thorough and rigorous self assessment and peer review process and was originally accredited in 2005. This important "self audit" analyzes over 200 core and important competencies that are critical to fire protection and emergency service delivery internationally. National Standards & Best Practices The City is evaluated against the national standards and internationally recognized best management practices. This process also serves as a building block in the development of the Roseville Fire Department strategic plan and standards of response coverage. Internationally Accredited agencies must undergo a full self assessment and peer review every five years. The Roseville Fire Department completed this process and we are pleased to announce that the Commission on Fire Accreditation International (CFAI) has approved our Reaccredited Agency Status. You can learn more by reading the official press release. In addition, annual compliance reports must be filed with the Commission to insure we are maintaining high standards over the intervening five years.
