Nearby: Oxford, OHNOTE: This is a transcript of a speech Nate LaMar gave at Veterans Day programs in Henry and Wayne counties.Chris O’Connor passed away September 20 in Oxford, OH, while visiting his son at Miami University. We were West Point classmates and cadet company-mates all four years. We did not get along initially: he was a blue-collar Irish Catholic, leftist Democrat hockey player from Massachusetts, while I was a W.A.S.P. farm-boy, conservative Republican distance runner from Indiana. But we made it through plebe year and its academic difficulties. Becoming a Cadet Training Officer is a job nobody wants, as you are in charge of dreaded drill for parades. But in the “leadership laboratory” that is West Point, at the end of junior year our Tactical Officer told Chris he was recommending him for this role, as he didn’t care what other cadets thought of him! Chris was tough and had thick skin.

On April 1, 1956, she was married to Harold Dean Hayes. Harold and Laverne (or “Annie” as he would often call her) enjoyed 62 years together in marriage until his passing on November 16, 2018.

Nearby: Boston, INLast Sunday, Nov. 1, the clocks wound back from 2:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m., marking the end of daylight savings time for this year. As we return to standard time, several questions come up: Why do we have daylight savings time? Why do we keep it? Should we keep it? First, daylight savings time should be defined. According to Britannica, daylight savings time refers to the practice of “advancing clocks, so as to extend daylight hours during conventional waking time in the summer months.” For example, as CBS news reported, on Oct. 31, the sunrise and sunset in Boston were at 7:16 AM and 5:39 PM, respectively. On Nov. 1, they were 6:17 AM and 4:37 PM, true to the change by an hour of the clocks. But why did we start doing this? As Britannica and the BBC explain, Benjamin Franklin is most commonly credited with coming up with the basic idea in 1784, with the idea of saving the use of artificial light, which were candles at the time.

Nearby: Cincinnati, OHHaving a shopaholic mom meant that every Christmas, the gifts under the tree came straight out of the holiday shopping catalog. These early 2000s toys were what made my Christmases and birthdays so special, as I eagerly waited to get an American Girl doll that I saw in the Christmas catalog or the 24-pack of Shopkins. As someone who has collected almost every collectible, from Pokémon cards to an enormous Shopkins collection, I feel fairly skilled to write this article. On a Christmas spent in Cincinnati, OH, my cousin introduced me to the world of Shopkins, and I was hooked. I’m pretty sure my parents spent an absurd amount of money on my entire Shopkins collection, because on every trip to Target I would beg them until they took me to the collectible toy aisle and bought me the small Shopkins basket that came with two blind-bag Shopkins. Then, for birthdays, all my friends and family, knowing about my Shopkins addiction, would give me more.
