Koester Originally The Minnesota Bible College the Dinky dome is named because of its adjacency to the neighboring commercial district. The building is square in dimension at 99’8” by 99’8”standing three stories tall. The glass dome centered over the building is made of steel double structure truss-framing creating two domes of glass. The 90-year-old Dinkydome began as home to the Minnesota Bible College, but it has long housed businesses related to the university, fast- food restaurants, and a coffee shop. Hastings City Hall Designed by A.M. Radcliff and completed in 1870. The building served as the Dakota County Courthouse until 1974. It became Hastings City Hall in 1993. The structure incorporates Italian Villa and Romanesque Revival features and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It remains one of the most dominant structures in downtown Hastings, even though an unsympathetic addition in 1955 damaged its original integrity. Minnesota State Capitol Designed by Cass Gilbert and modeled after Saint Peter’s Basilica in Rome - the unsupported marble dome is the second largest in the world, after Saint Peter’s. It is the third building to serve this purpose: the rst capitol w a s destroyed by re in 1881, and the second was completed in 1883, but was considered to be too small almost immediately. Gilbert drew ire for choosing stone from Georgia rather than native Minnesota stone. A compromise was eventually made where the base of the building and interior spaces used varieties of native stone, including Kasota stone, and the rare Pipestone used by Native Americans for their peace pipes. 1st Capitol St. Mary's Orthodox Cathedral Founded in 1887 by Russian immigrants (Austrians, Hungarians, Bohemians, Slovaks, Czechoslovaks, Russians, and Poles), continues to thrive while persevering through numerous hardships over the last 100+ years. Cathedral of Saint Paul Designed by Emmanuel Louis Masqueray is one of the largest and most historic churches in the United States and is rightly listed as a landmark on the National Register of Historic Places. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a treasure for all Americans. It compares to the great cathedrals of Europe. This, the fourth Cathedral of Saint Paul, was the dream of Archbishop John Ireland, who secured the site in 1904. The 120-foot-wide dome has a clay tile surface overlaid with copper. A copper-clad lantern approximately 30 feet tall on top of the base lends to the Cathedral’s overall height of 306 feet. Masqueray completed only a few interior designs before he died suddenly in 1917. Consequently, the archbishops and designers who succeeded Ireland and Masqueray assumed the responsibility of transforming the Cathedral’s stark, whitewashed interior into a decorative masterpiece. Where'd ya get that name? North Oaks (Ramsey County) was originally the hobby farm of railroad magnate James J Hill. Incorporated in 1956 it is now well know as a very afuent community.

■ On July 3, 1775, on Cambridge common in Massachusetts, George Washington rides out in front of the American troops

gathered there, draws his sword and formally takes command of the Continental Army. Washington declined to accept payment for his services beyond reimbursement of future expenses.

■ On July 4, 1911, record temperatures are set throughout the northeastern United States, the result of a deadly heat wave that would go on to kill 380 people. By July 13, New York alone had reported 211 people dead from the excessive heat.

■ On July 5, 1921, a trial begins in the case of seven Chicago White Sox baseball players accused of throwing the 1919 World Series. The conspiracy trial was just for show, and signed confessions from some

of the players mysteriously disappeared from police custody. The jury acquitted all of the accused players and then celebrated with them at a nearby restaurant.

■ On July 2, 1938, Helen Wills Moody defeats Helen Jacobs to win her eighth Wimbledon singles title. Her record was not broken until Martina Navratilova won her ninth Wimbledon title in 1990. Wills died in 1998 at the age of 92.

■ On July 6, 1971, Louis “Satchmo” Armstrong, one of the most infl uential musicians of the 20th century, dies in New York City at the age of 69. Armstrong pioneered jazz improvisation and the style known as “swing.” He had many nicknames, including Satchmo, short for “Satchelmouth.”

■ On July 14, 1798, Congress passes the Sedition Act, which permitted the prosecution of individuals who voiced or printed what the government deemed to be

malicious remarks about the president or government of the United States.

■ On July 11, 1804, Vice President Aaron Burr fatally shoots his long-time political antagonist, Alexander Hamilton, in a duel. Burr shot Hamilton in the stomach, and the bullet lodged next to his spine. Hamilton, a Founding Father and fi rst U.S. treasury secretary, died the next day.

■ On July 10, 1925, in Dayton, Tenn., the so-called Monkey Trial begins with John Thomas Scopes, a young high-school science teacher, accused of teaching evolution in violation of a Tennessee state law. The law made it a misdemeanor to teach any theory that denied the story of the Divine Creation of man.

• “Don’t you think a stereo cassette player that you can listen to while walking around is a good idea?” Those were the words of Sony’s chairman Masaru Ibuka

back in 1979. Ibuka traveled extensively and loved music and pitched the idea to company offi cials. On July 1 of that year, the Sony Walkman hit retailers’ shelves. • The year’s midpoint occurs on July 2, with 182 days passed and 182 yet to come (except in Leap years, which have one extra day in the fi rst half). On this day in 1937, Amelia Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan were heard from for the last time as they attempted to make the fi rst round-the-world fl ight. Their last contact was from the vicinity of Howland Island in the Pacifi c Ocean. • Chevrolet rolled its one-millionth Corvette off the assembly line in Bowling Green, Kentucky, on July 2, 1992. It was a white LT1 roadster with a red interior and black roof, carrying a price tag of more than $31,000. Another automotive milestone took place on this day in 2005, when the very last Ford Thunderbird was manufactured. The Ford plant at Wixom, Michigan, produced the platinum car with black interior. Employees of the plant signed their autographs on the inside fender panels, and the two-seater was given to the great-granddaughter of company founder Henry Ford, Josephine Ford.• The Civil War’s Battle of Gettysburg took place July 1-3, 1863, the largest military battle in U.S. history. Confederate troops of 75,000 under Robert E. Lee met the 97,000 men of the Union Army commanded by George Meade in the small Pennsylvania town, population 2,400. By the end of the three-day confl ict, more than 51,000 were dead, along with more than 5,000 horses. It’s estimated that 569 tons of ammunition were used in the assault, and 634 cannons were positioned throughout the 25-square-mile area. The Confederates were defeated in the battle, but it was not to be the end of the war. It raged on for nearly two more years, although Lee’s army never

recovered from the devastation. • The U.S. Second Continental Congress met from July 1-4, 1776, in Philadelphia’s Independence Hall to debate, revise and adopt the Declaration of Independence. The document had been drafted by Thomas Jefferson, listing grievances against the King of England and breaking ties between the colonies and the mother country. Fifty-six men later signed the document, and it was read publicly for the fi rst time on July 8.• It somehow seems appropriate that two of America’s founding fathers, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, should pass away on July 4. Jefferson, the nation’s third president and author of the Declaration of Independence, and John Adams, the second president, died within hours of each other in 1826, on the 50th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence. • An announcement at the July 4, 1939, Yankees game saddened baseball fans across the nation. Yankee fi rst baseman Lou Gehrig stood before the crowd and announced his retirement from baseball after being stricken with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The 36-year-old called himself “the luckiest man on the face of the earth” for having played 17 seasons in the major leagues. His amazing record of 2,130 consecutive games endured for 56 years, and his record 23-career grand slams remains unbeaten. Gehrig passed away less than two years later, and his number “4” uniform was retired, making him the fi rst player to be given this honor. • The world’s fi rst successful clone, Dolly the sheep, was born at Scotland’s Roslin Institute on July 5, 1996. She produced six lambs before her death in 2003. Dolly was stuffed and is displayed at the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh.• Woolton, England’s annual parish church garden fair was the site of a momentous meeting on July 6, 1957. In addition to the dog show and scheduled brass band, John Lennon’s Quarrymen had been invited to play. Fifteen-year-old Paul McCartney was in the audience and was so impressed with the music, he asked Lennon if he might play some tunes for him. Just two weeks later, McCartney was invited to join the Quarrymen, and the rest, as they say, is history. • Chicago’s Comiskey Park was the site of Major League Baseball’s fi rst All-Star game on July 6, 1933. The American League defeated the National League by a score of 4 to 2. • Sandra Day O’Connor grew up on an Arizona ranch, where she became an accomplished horsewoman at a young age. After graduating from Stanford University’s law school, she worked as Arizona’s assistant Attorney General, before making the move to politics as a state senator. On July 7, 1981, President Ronald Reagan appointed O’Connor as the fi rst female justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, a position she retained until her retirement in 2006.

THIS WEEK IN HISTORY (CONTINUED)

A little girl asked her father, “Daddy? Do all fairy tales begin with ‘Once upon a time’?”

He replied, “No, there is a whole series of fairy tales that begin with ‘If elected I promise…’”

▲ Corn is best cooked within a day or two of

being picked, so farm-stand corn is the best. Add a little bit of milk to the cooking water, and it will bring out the natural sweetness.

▲ Cherries are in season! Much like strawberries, they need to be kept refrigerated but taste best at room temperature. Before eating your cherries, let them sit out for about a half-hour. Mmmmm.

▲ Dried lentils don’t need to be soaked prior to cooking like other dried beans. And they’re packed with protein.

▲ “If you lose a contact lens and can’t fi nd it right off, try turning out the lights and shining a fl ashlight across the ground. The lens might refl ect the light and cause a fl ash. That will make it easier to fi nd.” -- T.L. in Texas

▲ “The kids are all home for the summer, which means more TV squabbles. We limit their television viewing with coupons, which they can use to “reserve” the TV. They write the time they’d like to use the television, in 30-minute increments, on the coupon, and it gets taped to the inside cabinet of the entertainment center. This has worked well, since it’s fi rst-come, fi rst-served”. -- R.E. in Tennessee

▲ If you are counting calories, check out the website of fast-food restaurants you frequent, and you can decide ahead of time what items fi t best in your diet.

▲ If your stomach gets irritated when you take aspirin, make sure you’re taking it with a full glass of water. Too little water will result in an upset tummy.

▲ If you want to keep your peeled potatoes white, add a little bit of white vinegar to the cooking water. It will not fl avor the potatoes.

What better way to celebrate Independence Day than with fi reworks? Here’s some information about the dynamic displays that light up the night sky. • It’s thought that gunpowder originated in China about 1000 A.D. Firecrackers consisted of bamboo shoots fi lled with black powder and were used to celebrate the new year. Early fi reworks were not the colorful ones we know today, rather just loud explosions designed to scare away evil spirits. • China remains the largest producer of fi reworks, making about 90 percent of the world’s supply. America imports close to $200 million worth of fi reworks each year and manufactures over $230 million of fi reworks as well. • Color was fi rst added to

fi reworks in Italy in the 1830s. Different metals are responsible for the variety of colors we see lighting up the sky. Copper creates blue, barium produces green, calcium is responsible for orange, and sodium makes yellow. The addition of aluminum and titanium will add bright white to the display, and a mix of strontium salts and lithium salts will produce red. • Sparklers were created around 1880, and while they may seem tame in comparison to other fi reworks, sparklers actually burn at temperatures exceeding 2,000° F. (1,093° C), over 15 times the boiling point of water. Just three sparklers burning together produce the same heat as a blowtorch! Children under fi ve receive the most injuries from this source. • The black powder used in the manufacture of fi reworks is classifi ed as “low explosive.” This means its detonation velocity is about 100 yards per second. Dynamite falls into the

category of “high explosive” with a speed of greater than 1,000 yards per second.• The illegal M-80 fi reworks, which simulate the sound of gunfi re, are offi cially known as “military rifl e fi re simulators.” • A record-setting fi reworks display was set off in Portugal in 2006, consisting of 66,326 fi reworks. • When King Louis XVI of France married Marie Antoinette in 1770, an impressive fi reworks show of 20,000 rockets followed the ceremony to celebrate the union. More than 200,000 people packed Paris’ Place de la Concorde to view the display. However, tragedy struck afterward when a stampede occurred as people left the area, resulting in 800 deaths. • Those who manufacture and set off fi reworks must wear only cotton clothing, due to the fact that static electricity in synthetic fabrics can ignite fi recrackers.

• Recent studies have shown that colored smoke from fi reworks can be damaging to the cells that line the lungs. Breathing the smoke can be toxic to the epithelial cells, with orange cited as the most dangerous, followed by violet, red and yellow. • Every year, Disney World produces upwards of 1,000 fi reworks shows. Beginning in 2004, Disney started using compressed air rather than gunpowder to launch fi reworks, resulting in a reduction of smoke and fumes. This, along with electronic timers, increased the accuracy of the timing, enabling perfect choreography to music. • Although there are more than 6,000 fi reworks-related injuries in the United States every year, the rate is actually on the decline, probably because the public’s preference has switched from the backyard variety to large professional shows.

The Reluctant Psychic A lot of intuitive people I know, including myself, are in a psychic funk lately. There seems to be a lot diffi culty with meditating and in general being able to concentrate on just about anything. Along with that, I have noticed that the people I’m reading are asking a lot of questions about vivid dreams they are having. Dreams that just don’t go away as easily as a dream typically does. I don’t know if these two things are connected but I suspect they are. Typically when intuitives are out of sorts with their gifts, readings start to feel familiar due to the repeated topics involved. Currently, that topic is dreams. Dreams are a way for our minds to sort out the things we’ve experienced during the day. Since we experience so many things daily, it’s not uncommon for our dreams to be a jumbled mess. It’s when your dream is very clear that I would suggest paying attention. Our guides use the dream state to give us information. It’s a very easy way for us to receive information that we need to go about our day. When we are asleep, we won’t fi ght our guides suggestions as easily as we do when we are awake. Think about how many times a day we go against our “gut” instincts because others

infl uence us, only to realize we should have listened to that little voice in the back of our heads. When we are asleep, no one else can infl uence us. When you have a dream that just won’t go away, consider paying attention to it. Try writing down the details of it. Were your loved ones who had passed over in this dream? Were they talking to you? Did you get messages about something happening in your life? When our dreams are very clear it’s probably not really a dream. It’s probably a vision being given to you by your guides and loved ones. I treasure these times when my loved ones come to give me information. It makes decision making much easier for me. Thank you for your interest and attention. If you’d like to have a reading or take a class, please contact me. Till next time, stay in touch with yourself, your life, and with those loved ones who have moved on.
