Ted was born in Indianapolis, IN, and was raised by his grandmother. When he was 13 he moved to Manhattan Beach, CA, where he lived with his aunt and uncle. Having promised his aunt he would not enlist until he was 19, Ted attended Oregon State College for one semester in 1942. On his 19th birthday Ted enlisted in the Marine Air Corps but he failed the eye test. He returned to California to take eye exercises. On March 15, 1943, Ted entered the Army and was assigned to the Army Air Corps. He became a pilot and flew missions in India and China in support of the Flying Tigers of the 14th Air Force. He was awarded numerous medals for his service, including two Distinguished Flying Crosses. After the war, Mr. Stevens completed degrees at UCLA and Harvard Law School. In 1950 he joined a law firm in Washington, DC, where he met his first wife Ann Cherrington. In 1952 Mr. Stevens accepted a position with Combs and Clasby, a law firm in Fairbanks. Later, in 1953 he became U.S. Attorney in Fairbanks. During President Eisenhower's administration, he took a job with the Interior Department in Washington, DC. In that position, he worked with many other Alaskans to push for Alaska statehood and became the Chief Legal Officer (the Solicitor) of Interior. In 1961 Ted returned to Alaska to practice law in Anchorage in the new State of Alaska. He was elected to the Alaska House of Representatives in 1964. In his second term, Mr. Stevens became the House majority leader. Mr. Stevens was appointed to the U.S. Senate in 1968 by then-Governor Walter J. Hickel to fill a vacancy created by the death of Senator E.L. (Bob) Bartlett. Two years later in 1970, Alaskans chose Senator Stevens to finish that term. He was re-elected in 1972, 1978, 1984, 1990, 1996, and 2002. During his service in the Senate, Senator Stevens was instrumental in the passage of the legislation settling Alaska Native land claims, the authorization of the Trans- Alaska Pipeline, transfer of the Alaska Railroad to the State, creating the essential air service program and bypass mail service. He has worked tirelessly to improve health care, communications, and transportation for Alaskans. Ted fought to enact the 200 mile limit to protect Alaska's fisheries. He authored the American Fisheries Act to reduce foreign ownership of Alaska's fisheries and created the Community Development Quota Program to promote economic development in Western Alaska. Ted was a strong supporter of development of Alaska's resources including construction of a gas pipeline and opening the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Range to oil and gas exploration. He was a national leader on pension reform, women in sports, national security and defense. The Ted Stevens Amateur Sports Act created the U.S. Olympic Committee. The longest serving member of Alaska's congressional delegation, Senator Stevens had more years of service than any other Republican in the U.S. Senate and was the longest serving Senator in the history of the Republican Party. Having served for 4 years as the Senate's President pro tempore, the Presiding Officer in the absence of the Vice President, Senator Stevens also served as the Senate's President pro tempore emeritus; vice chairman of the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation; cochairman of the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee; and ranking member of the Disaster Recovery Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Subcommittee. He was married to the former Catherine Bittner, a fourth generation Alaskan and lawyer. He has 6 children and 11 grandchildren. His first wife, Ann Cherrington Stevens, was killed in a 1978 airplane crash at the Anchorage Airport. On August 9, 2010, Senator Stevens was among five people who died in an airplane crash north of Dillingham, AK, about 325 miles southwest of Anchorage. ? MEMORIAL ADDRESSES AND OTHER TRIBUTES FOR TED STEVENS Proceedings in the Senate Thursday, August 12, 2010 prayer The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer: Let us pray. Fountain of life and source of all goodness, You make all things and fill them with Your blessings. You created us to rejoice in the splendor of Your radiance. Help our Senators today to nurture the inner light of Your presence in their lives. Enable them to hear Your still small voice calling them to embrace Your wisdom and to follow Your leadership. Lord, we commend to You former Senator Ted Stevens. We thank You for his life and legacy and acknowledge that we are diminished by his sudden and unexpected death. We are grateful for his wisdom, dedication, patriotism, courage, and service. Comfort his family and all who mourn. We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen. MOMENT OF SILENCE Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate observe a moment of silence in memory of our former colleague, the late Senator from Alaska, Ted Stevens. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered. (Moment of silence.) Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the immediate consideration of S. Res. 617, submitted earlier today. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, the clerk will report the resolution by title. The legislative clerk read as follows: A resolution (S. Res. 617) relative to the death of the Honorable Theodore ''Ted'' Fulton Stevens, former Senator for the State of Alaska. There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the resolution. Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, I would like to take this opportunity, and I think I speak on behalf of all of our colleagues, certainly in sentiment if not my exact words, about our friend and former colleague, Ted Stevens. On Tuesday we were all deeply saddened to learn about his tragic passing. Ted's dedication to his Nation began with his valiant service in World War II and endured through six decades of public service. Ted helped secure statehood for his beloved Alaska and never stopped fighting for the people of the Pioneer State for over 40 years as its senior Senator. Our thoughts are with Ted's wife Catherine and the entire Stevens family and all of those who lost their lives and were injured in this week's sad accident. Mr. President, I want to personally add the thoughts of Senator Reid. I spoke with him last night. We spoke about Senator Stevens and remembered him fondly. Senator Reid particularly noted to me one of his prize possessions was a Hulk tie that Senator Stevens had given him, and he proudly still has it with him. Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, in the history of our country, no one man has done more for one State than Ted Stevens. His commitment to the people of Alaska and his Nation spanned decades, and he left a lasting mark on both. From his early military service as a pilot in World War II, to his involvement in the statehood of the Last Frontier, to his fierce support and defense of our Nation's military, Ted Stevens was always there, fighting for what he believed in, and usually winning. He was a force to be reckoned with, and we will miss him greatly. We extend our deepest sympathies to Catherine and the entire Stevens family, and to the families of the friends who were lost in this terrible accident. Mr. SCHUMER. I ask unanimous consent that the resolution be agreed to, the preamble be agreed to, the motions to reconsider be laid on the table en bloc, and that any statements relating to the resolution be printed in the Record. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered. The resolution (S. Res. 617) was agreed to. The preamble was agreed to. The resolution, with its preamble, reads as follows: S. Res. 617 Whereas Theodore ''Ted'' Fulton Stevens, who began serving in the Senate 8 years after Alaska was admitted to Statehood, represented the people of the State of Alaska with distinction in the Senate from 1968 to 2009 and played a significant role in the transformation of the State of Alaska from an impoverished territory to a full- fledged State through the assistance he provided in building energy facilities, hospitals and clinics, roads, docks, ferry terminals and airports, water and sewer facilities, schools, and other community facilities in the State of Alaska, which earned him recognition as ''Alaskan of the Century'' from the Alaska Legislature in 2000; Whereas Ted Stevens distinguished himself as a transport pilot during World War II in support of the ''Flying Tigers'' of the Army Air Forces, flying supplies to China over the treacherous ''Hump'' route in the eastern Himalayan mountains and earning 2 Distinguished Flying Crosses and other decorations for his skill and bravery; Whereas Ted Stevens, after serving as a United States Attorney in the territory of Alaska, came to Washington, District of Columbia in 1956 to serve in the Eisenhower Administration in the Department of the Interior, where he was a leading force in securing the legislation that led to the admission of Alaska as the 49th State on January 3, 1959, and then as Solicitor of the Department of the Interior; Whereas, in 1961, Ted Stevens returned to the State of Alaska and, in 1964, was elected to the Alaska House of Representatives, where he was subsequently elected as Speaker pro tempore and majority leader until his appointment to the Senate to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Senator E.L.

White Physical Education Program (20 U.S.C. 7261 et seq.); Whereas Ted Stevens unconditionally supported the needs of the Armed Forces of the United States through visits to soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines in ever[y] major military conflict and war zone where United States military personnel have been assigned, including Vietnam, Kuwait, Bosnia, Kosovo, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and in his role as Chairman and Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Defense Appropriations for more than 20 years; and Whereas Ted Stevens was well respected for reaching across the aisle to forge bipartisan alliances and enjoyed many close friendships with colleagues in both political parties and with his staff, who were deeply loyal to him: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That Date(s) Held: 2010-08-12, 2010-09-15, 2010-09-20, 2010-01-03, 2010-09-27, 2010-09-28, 2010-09-29, 2010-11-17, 2010-11-15, 2010-11-17, 2010-12-09, 2010-12-14, 2010-09-29 111th Congress, 2nd Session GPO Document Source: CHRG-111shrg61600 Related Items: United States House Concurrent Resolution 307 (111th Congress) United States Senate Resolution 617 (111th Congress) United States Senate Bill 3802 (111th Congress) U.S. Code: 16 U.S.C. 1801et seq.

16World Leader, Mentor Of International Leader Man - Fang Ruida Famously Said: "Any Character, Including Great Ones, Is But Half A Tiny Speck Of Dust Before Zeus Before The Great Natural Universe." (Jacques Gore Sri Lanka) 2021v.2.2 Multilingual Comparison (14 Languages For Global E-book And Mobile Version)
By Jacques Gore
World Leader, Mentor of International Leader Man - Fang Ruida famously said: "Any character, including great ones, is but half a tiny speck of dust before Zeus before the great natural universe." (Jacques Gore Sri Lanka) 2021v.2.2 Multilingual comparison (14 languages for global e-book and mobile version) World Leader, Mentor of International Leader Humanity - Fang Ruida famously said: "Any character, including great ones, is but half a tiny speck of dust in front of Zeus in front of the great natural universe. When you are great or small, you can't be noble or low, whether you are rich or poor, whether you are famous or have passed away, whether you are a golden coffin or a silver coffin or a corpse, everything is nothing but It's just flying clouds and falling clouds , just flashy clouds of smoke. Of course, the fundamental and ultimate meaning of life and life is not only the existence of existence and reality, but the greater and more valuable is the promotion or sublimation from primitive wild animal wildism to liberal rationalism Glory. Its lofty value does not lie in what the world and human beings endow you with, on the contrary, but in what you can provide and contribute to the world and human beings. This is the essence of freedom and rationality. ". ●●●●●●●●●●●●

7Charley's Aunt
By Brandon Thomas

The girlfriends are coming to visit the chaps at college, but of course they can't stay unless there is a proper chaperone. So what could be more reasonable that getting a friend from the Drama Club to dress up and pretend to be Charley's Aunt? Simple and sure to work! What could go wrong? Howsabout the real aunt arriving? This play has been revived and adapted numerous times including as films, a Broadway musical, and even an opera. (NOTE: the script contains an almost overwhelming number of stage directions by the author telling each actor what emotion to show, where to move, and even how to create some of the visual effects. Because the directions give a good idea of the on-stage pandemonium one would see at a production of this farce, I have chosen to leave the directions in this audio performance.) - Summary by ToddHW <BR><BR>Cast list:<BR> STEPHEN SPETTIGUE, Solicitor, Oxford: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/12500">Foon</a><br> COLONEL SIR FRANCIS CHESNEY, BART., Late Indian Service: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/8425">Larry Wilson</a><br> JACK CHESNEY, Graduate at St. Olde's College, Oxford: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/12431">Tom Daley</a><br> CHARLEY WYKEHAM, Graduate at St. Olde's College, Oxford: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/11905">Wolfgang Bas</a><br> LORD FANCOURT BABBERLEY, Graduate at St. Olde's College, Oxford: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/10789">Tomas Peter</a><br> BRASSETT, A College Scout: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/6754">ToddHW</a><br> DONNA-LUCIA D'ALVADOREZ, From Brazil: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/10179">Sonia</a><br> AMY SPETTIGUE, Spettigue's Niece: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/10614">Leanne Yau</a><br> KITTY VERDUN, Spettigue's Ward: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/6281">Beth Thomas</a><br> ELA DELAHAY: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/11790">TJ Burns</a><br> Stage Directions: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/11084">Devorah Allen</a><br> Edited by: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/6754">ToddHW</a>

8Poems by Edward Thomas
By Edward Thomas

Born in 1878, Thomas published his first book when he was 18. Having married while still at university, he supported his family by writing articles and books, some in the form of what we might call slow travel writing, compiled on walks throughout England and Wales. He came to poetry late, encouraged by Robert Frost, and wrote 144 poems between 1914, and 1917 when he was killed, two years after enlisting, and shortly after arriving in France. <br><br> His poetic life coincided with WW1, and though not a war poet, his is the poetry of loss, of life as it would never be again. What is powerful to the English imagination is his depiction of the fragility of the English countryside. This is inseparable from his deep understanding of the longings and regrets of those who would die. Transience and mortality are at the heart of his work. This is true in one of the country’s favourite poems, to be found on this recording: Adlestrop. He is important to other poets in that, at his best, his poetry is quietly, sometimes coldly, conversational, with a slow beat that takes us with him as he thinks through from line to line, and wraps us in his vision of life and the natural world. (Summary by Judith Brennan)

9Jātaka Tales
By H. T. Francis and E. J. Thomas
Jātaka tales are ancient Indian folktales that form a part of Buddhist teaching, telling stories of the Buddha’s past lives. Akin to Aesop’s fables, some strikingly similar, they urge the listener to moral behavior and often, more than that, point a way to real insight. - Summary by Scotty Smith

10In the North Woods of Maine
By Elmer Erwin Thomas
Two fifteen-year-old boys---the younger of whom may have been fourteen---decide to hunt and trap away from home in the north woods of Maine. A true recounting of their adventures can be found here, though the years that passed before the tale was written down may have added a slight bit of exaggeration. Then again, they set out in the winter of 1875 and all that's written could very well be the complete and honest truth! The listener may wish to listen first to Section 18 of this recording---Notes on Maine Animals---as familiarity with these will enhance an understanding of the memoir.

15Selected Articles—H.M.V.S. Cerberus and the Defence of the Colony of Victoria
By John Donaldson, Alexander Muir Houston, James Jasper, William Jervois, Donald Macdonald, Colebrooke Thomas Mandeville, Kynaston Lathrop Murray, William Henry Panter, Henry Schaw, Edward Henry Stanley, Alan Broderick Thomas, George Tryon, Carl Ludwig Julius Wagemann and John Crawford Wilson
In terms of population, in terms of development and in terms of wealth, Victoria boomed in the 1850s and 1860s due to the Gold Rush. Undeniably, the colony had money to burn. Surprise port visits by the Russian corvette Bogatyr and the Confederate warship Shenandoah in the 1860s awakened in Victoria a deep sense of vulnerability, and Victorians set their minds to a new domestic project – a decades long pursuit of security. That effort would ultimately give rise to extensive coastal fortifications, militia and artillery formations both voluntary and professional, sea mines, and a small but not inconsequential naval flotilla whose backbone would be the formidable ironclad H.M.V.S. Cerberus. Not that these efforts were confined to Victoria alone. The not-infrequently perilous straits of the Mother Country as it navigated the treacherous shoals of European politics and global empire provided ample reasons for insomnia. To varying degrees the other states too had constituted forces, and most made a start at acquiring ‘warships’—an assemblage tending more to the ‘dinky’ side than that term might otherwise suggest. But where naval matters were concerned New South Wales made something of a false start, while Queensland and South Australia simply started late. Whether this is because the issue didn’t resonate as much in the other colonies, or whether Victoria simply had larger resources to sink into an inherently (economically) unproductive project is not immediately obvious. Efforts _were_ made in all the colonies, however and joint defence and a federal fleet would be a not insignificant impetus towards Federation. The Australian colonies would largely abandon armaments acquisition with the depression of the 1890s, but the arrival of Theodore Roosevelt’s Great White Fleet in 1908 exercised popular imagination, and the recently federated Commonwealth of Australia set about acquiring a new navy. This new Royal Australian Navy, lead by the battle-cruiser HMAS Australia, steamed into Sydney Harbour for the first time in late 1913. This new institution would be tested far more strenuously than the naval forces of the unfederated colonies ever were. My appreciation to the [url=” https://www.cerberus.com.au/index.html]”Friends of the Cerberus[/url] for their extensive online resources. - Summary by Alister
