Two mice live in a movie studio warehouse and are looking for food. Suddenly one hears the other chewing. "What did you find?" he asks. "I am not sure," comes the answer. "It looks like a piece of film from an old movie. Let me see... Ah, yes. It’s from 'Gone with the Wind.'" "And how is it?" "The book was better."

On New Year’s Day, 1907, Theodore Roosevelt shook hands with 8,513 people. A Duke is the highest royal rank you can achieve without being a king or a prince. English sailors came to be called Limeys after using lime juice to combat scurvy. Queen Isabella of Castile, who dispatched Christopher Columbus to find the Americas, boasted that she had only two baths in her life – at her birth and before she got married. Leonardo da Vinci could write with the one hand and draw with the other simultaneously.

From The Editor Over the past few years we have had our garden plants to rot due to the excessive rain. We have a small garden and usually we wouldn’t replant. With the wet weather we had earlier this summer, we put our garden out later than usual. So here it is August and we just got our first ripe tomato last week. This year we decided not to plant potatoes and the potato bugs attacked our tomato plants, but I was able to catch them before they did to much damage. Now it seems something has taken to our ears of corn, not to mention the Japanese Beetles that are trying to take care or the rest. Feast or Famine.

David was hunted, haunted and harassed. Often he was forced into a crevice and had little room to move or stretch. But in his moments of oppression he did not seem to suffer from depression. He felt free to sing a song of hope that God planted in his heart. He found a source of strength that came to him from his dearest friend and constant companion - God! “I will sing of Your strength, in the morning I will sing of Your love; for You are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble!” wrote David as he reflected on the troubled times of his life. And he was not the only one who found themselves in life threatening and even life ending situations. Do you remember what Paul and Silas did when they were thrown into prison for serving the Lord? At midnight they
were praying and singing hymns of praise to the Lord while the other prisoners listened to them. God joined in the celebration, sent an earthquake that caused so much shaking that the prisoners’ chains fell off and doors flew open. The confines and chains of being in prison could not silence them. Josephus, the historian, wrote of the Christians awaiting death in the Coliseum. Waiting on the lions to maul and mangle them, they sang songs of joy so loudly that their voices were heard above the roar of the lions and the cheers of the crowd. As they faced the lions that would devour them, God put His song in their mouths, His peace in their hearts and angels to comfort them. Visit us at: SowerMinistries.org

The Passenger Pigeon The passenger pigeon (ectopistes migratorius) was the most abundant bird species in North America in the early 1800s. Just a century later, however, the species was driven to extinction after the last passenger pigeon died in 1914. In the autumn of 1813, naturalist John James Audubon was journeying through the barrens of Kentucky when he heard a rumble from an approaching front on the northeast horizon. Within minutes, the sky had darkened, the temperature had plummeted and the thunderous roar had become deafening. This was no gale blowing in, however, but a massive storm of passenger pigeons so thick that the birds blotted out the sun, created a chilly downdraft from their flapping wings and snapped limbs clean off trees when they roosted en masse. “The air was literally filled with Pigeons; the light of noon-day was obscured as by an eclipse; the dung fell in spots, not unlike melting flakes of snow,” Audubon wrote. Spellbound by “the extreme beauty of their aerial evolutions” that undulated like “the coils of a gigantic serpent,” Audubon attempted to get a count of the flock, but the numbers were staggering. The avian cloud took three days to pass overhead. The massive flocks of passenger pigeons reported by 19th-century observers like Audubon were of biblical proportions. By some estimates, as many as five billion passenger pigeons, also known as wild pigeons, filled the skies of eastern North America and accounted for a quarter of the continent’s birds in the early 1800s. Yet by the end of the century, what naturalist John Muir once likened to “a mighty river in the sky” had run dry. Passenger pigeons—not to be confused with “carrier pigeons” used to transport messages—had vanished from the wild by 1900, and within a few years the planetary population had dwindled to a mere two held in captivity at the Cincinnati Zoo, a couple with the patriotic names of George and Martha in honor of the Washingtons. When George died in 1910, Martha was the sole survivor. Since she had never laid a fertile egg and the zoo’s $1,000 reward for any male passenger pigeon to mate with her had remained unclaimed, extinction was a foregone conclusion. The end came on September 1, 1914, when keepers came to Martha’s cage and found no life in her deep-red eyes. At the precise moment when the last passenger pigeon died from an apoplectic stroke, a species vanished from the earth. How had this happened? No detailed autopsy was required to determine the cause of death for the passenger pigeon species. Rampant overhunting and the destruction of natural habitats were to blame. Passenger pigeons, which more closely resembled mourning doves than the common pigeons found today, made for tasty and cheap meals and their iridescent red, blue and copper plumage and long tails made for fashionable accents to women’s hats. The tendency to flock together made these birds of a feather easy prey as the commercial passenger pigeon industry blossomed. Even the worst marksman could simply point a gun airborne, fire and bag hundreds of birds. Hunters also captured them by the thousands with nets and choked them by the dozens by placing burning sulfur under their nests. But even as hunters harvested millions of birds annually in the first half of the 1800s, the passenger pigeon population remained steady. Technology, however, caught up to the fast-flying birds in the second half of the 1800s. Bands of hunters shared news of approaching flocks over newly laid telegraph wires, while railroads allowed large numbers of harvested pigeons to be transported to America’s burgeoning cities and sold for food. In addition to the mass slaughter, when Americans cut down virgin forests as the country swept westward, they depleted the passenger pigeons’ food supply of beechnuts, acorns, chestnuts, seeds and berries. The species could not replenish faster than it was being diminished. Females usually laid only one egg at a time in their nests, and passenger pigeons required large numbers of their own kind in proximity in order to breed. When their numbers dwindled, their reproductive cycles shut down. By the time the public realized there was a problem, it was already too late. Could the passenger pigeon be raised from the DEAD? Scientists spend millions to revive extinct bird using centuries-old DNA. The San Francisco geneticists company Revive and Restore, plan to use a process known as ‘de-extinction’. The technique involves using pigeon DNA taken from museum specimens. Scientists will then fill in gaps with fragments from a band-tailed pigeon. This reconstructed genome would be placed into stem cells of a pigeon. Scientists would then inject these back into live band-tailed pigeons. As those birds mate, their chicks would have passenger pigeon genes. The technique could be used to bring back hundreds of other extinct species.
