ve Boone and other past mascots
a retirement ceremony in the upcoming academic year.The image of Denver
Boone was originally designed by a Walt Disney artist and named by
a UD student back in 1968 .The cartoony figure, which sports a
scruffy beard and a raccoon skin cap, is reminiscent of the Daniel
Boone character from the 1950s TV show based on the real-life pioneer.Boone
was a legend of early American history and the archetypal hero of
the American Western Frontier.Later, his image and legend fell victim to
revisionist history as he became associated with the forceful displacement
of Native Americans from their land.So how closely linked are Denver Boone
and Daniel Boone?Any association of the Denver Boone caricature with America's
pioneer hero, Daniel Boone, is misguided, said Randell Jones, historian
and author of the book In the Footsteps of Daniel Boone.Mythology and
Fess Parker aside, it is well documented that Daniel Boone never wore
a coonskin cap. Neither did he wear a beard. Moreover, any exploits
by him west of Missouri are speculative at best.

before a dispute arises, otherwise it can look to a court as
if something was done after the fact as an attempt to cover
up hostility to gays.Airline Baptist Church Senior Pastor Chad Mills said
members of the public use their facilities in is Bossier City, La.,
for many activities, including Zumba classes. In the past, anyone who could
pay the fee was allowed to reserve the space. But recently, the
church changed its rental policy to allow wedding-related events only for
male-female couples.Some denominations are less concerned about the Supreme
Court rulings. The Assemblies of God, the group of churches comprising the
world's largest Pentecostal denomination, sought legal advice after the
rulings. An attorney for the group distributed a memo to ministers saying
there was no reason to change their bylaws.However, the memo also said
that "doing so is not inappropriate, and may be warranted based on
future rulings by the Supreme Court and other state and federal courts."The
bylaw changes are coming at a time when many churches are wrestling
with gay marriage in general and are working hard to be more
welcoming to gays and lesbians."It's probably one of the most difficult
issues our churches are facing right now," said Doug Anderson, a national
coordinator with the evangelical Vineyard Church. "It's almost an impossible
situation to reconcile what's going on in our culture, and our whole
theology of welcoming and loving peopl

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">VATICAN CITY Pope Francis says he has been disturbed by "terrible
images" of atrocities occurring in Syria, and he is urging the international
community to step up its efforts to end the civil war there.Francis
told tens of thousands of people in St. Peter's Square on Sunday
that Syrian and rebel forces must put down their arms. He renewed
his call for dialogue as the U.S. considers a military response to
the alleged use of chemical weapons in Syria last week.Francis cited the
intensification of the "war among brothers," including massacres and "atrocious
deeds," and he urged the international community to "put all its efforts"
toward helping Syria find a solution to this "tragic situation."He also
expressed solidarity for the victims and all those suffering, especially
the children.
Don't fall victim to your social network with these simple tips.Spencer
E. HoltawayIf you're like most people, you visit Facebook a few times
a day. You catch up on the latest gossip, "Like" cute baby
or pet pictures, and maybe post something yourself. Facebook makes these
things simple.Facebook is so simple, in fact, that you might not know
you're using it wrong. Here are 3 things you really need to
stop doing on Facebook.1. Confuse public and private conversationsThere
are a few ways to communicate on Facebook. One is to post
a message on your Timeline for everyone to see.Another is to post
a message directly to a friend's Timeline. These are the posts that
show up in your Timeline labeled "Jane Doe > John Doe."Far too
many people think the second method is a private conversation. That isn't
the case. Think of it like a public speaker on stage talking
to one audience member instead of the entire audience. Everyone can still
hear everything they're saying.I've seen people who don't know this ask
friends very personal questions. It can be embarrassing for everyone.To
send a private message, click the Messages link to the left of
your news feed. Then click the New Message button.You can also go
to your friend's profile page and click the Message button near the
top right of the page. Or, just pick up a phone.2. OvershareSocial
media sites like Facebook encourage you to post your thoughts, experiences,
pictures, videos and whatever else
