Obituaries in Vineland, NJ | The Daily Journal

Gail “Tòkèkkëmpàhko (Gentle Leaves)” Gould, born to the late Frank Fisher & Jeannette Carpenter-Fisher-Pierce in Bridgeton NJ on January 22, 1960. She began her journey to the creator on May 31, 2023, surrounded by the love of her family in her home in Quinton Township, NJ.

Gail had many titles; among the most important of those are ‘Mom’, ’Grammy’, and wife.

Gail attended Bridgeton Highschool, graduating in 1978. At the conclusion of her time in high school, she worked for many different institutions and establishments. This includes Atlantic City casinos, Inscon Cable, Leones Industries, Wheaton Industries, Farm Rite, Owen’s Supply, etc. However, she took most pride in her involvement in the various jobs and committees within the jurisdiction of her people; The Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation of New Jersey. She was heavily involved in many aspects of supporting her tribal family, both as an employee and a volunteer for majority of her life. This included coordinating the annual Pow-Wow, assisting with elders and elder luncheons, high involvement with Cultural Retention and various youth camps, and so much more. Additionally, Gail spearheaded and laid the ground work for the museum and performing arts center that will come to be known as Achimwit of the Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape. But, most importantly to her, she played a crucial role in supporting tribal youth, both through action AND example.

Even in her 50s, Gail continued to inspire by pursuing additional degrees in business, successfully obtaining her Associate’s Degree from Rowan, previously known as Cumberland County College, and continued on to obtain her Bachelor’s Degree from Wilmington University. She proved that you are never too old to chase a dream.

Gail is survived by her husband: Chief Mark “Quiet Hawk” Gould, her siblings: Cheri Pierce, Deborah Pierce, Michael Pierce, and Christopher Fisher, her daughter: Lia “Watching…

Oshkosh: Magnet fishing hobby is an eco-friendly, modern day treasure hunt

Trolling waterways for discarded or lost valuables with magnets means a new hobby for local resident.

Doug Raflik, Fond du Lac Reporter

LOUDONVILLE — The Mohican Adventure Hunt is slated to kick off June 10 at the Cleo Redd Fisher Museum.

The hybrid scavenger hunt sends teams racing across the Mohican area to discover landmarks, find rare items, and complete unusual — and often hilarious — tasks.

“It’s a bit like a mixture of a traditional scavenger hunt and ‘The Amazing Race,’ ” said the museum’s curator, Kenny Libben. Each landmark, find or task is assigned a point value and teams must submit photographs or videos to prove they completed it. The first team to complete all tasks, or the team with the most points at the deadline, wins.

The hunt was first held in 2021 and grew in popularity in 2022 with participants competing for cash prizes and bragging rights. The Henleys took home the top prize in 2022, followed by Team Atterholt, who had won in 2021 and hold the record for most points after completing 49 of…

Under-Secretary-General DiCarlo calls for unity and action in the Security Council to slow the negative trajectory on the Korean Peninsula

In her briefing to the Security Council on 2 June, Under-Secretary-General for Political and Peacebuilding Affairs Rosemary DiCarlo reported on the recent satellite launch using ballistic missile technology by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. She conveyed the Secretary-General’s strong condemnation of the launch and call to swiftly resume dialogue to achieve the goal of sustainable peace and the complete and verifiable denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. “Key peace and security issues, such as the situation on the Korean Peninsula, must be an area for cooperation,” she said, noting that the lack of unity and action in the Security Council does little to slow the negative trajectory on the Korean Peninsula.

Do you know what a Strawberry Moon is? Here’s how it got its name & how to see it

It’s the season of sweetness and even the moon agrees.

The Strawberry Moon is coming and you don’t want to miss your best chance at seeing June’s full moon.

When you can see it

June’s Strawberry Moon will reach peak illumination at 11:43 p.m. (eastern time), according to Jesse Emspak of space.com.

If you are in a different time zone, check online to see when the full moon will be illuminated in your area.

How it got its name

Sure, strawberries are a bright red color, but the origin of the Strawberry Moon’s name didn’t necessarily come from this thought.

According to the Farmers Almanac: “This ‘Strawberry Moon’ name has been used by Native American Algonquian tribes that live in the northeastern United States as well as the Ojibwe, Dakota, and Lakota peoples to mark the ripening of ‘June-bearing’ strawberries that are ready to be gathered.”

Of course, you may catch a glimpse of the reddish color on the full moon anyway, as moons often look red due to light rays passing through layers of the atmosphere.

Other names for this full moon are:

  • Birth Moon for when certain animals are born

  • Blooming Moon because of the flowers during the season

  • Honey Moon because of the many marriages that occur during the month of June

Tips for viewing full moons

If you are planning to view the full moon, here are a few tips:

  • Find a quiet, open area away from lights

  • Bring a telescope if you want to see it up close.

  • Don’t look at your phone too much; your eyes won’t adjust to see the moon in the night sky

Are you planning on watching this full moon? Comment below and let us know.

ISHM: May 25 – June 1, 2023

Key Takeaways:

  • Draft Budget Changes Raise Strong KRG Objections; Iraq’s Top Court Says Extending The Kurdistan Parliament’s Term Was Unconstitutional – On May 25, the parliamentary finance committee made several last minute amendments to the 2023-2025 federal budget bill. The changes, which require the KRG to compensate public servants for withholdings made during the region’s economic crisis that began in 2015, raised strong objections from the KRG. Regional PM Masrour Barzani accused the finance committee of trying to derail existing agreements with PM Sudani Sudani, which he said were “the foundation” of cooperation between Baghdad and Erbil. Barzani argued that the withholdings should be repaid by the federal government since they were the result of Baghdad’s decision to cut the KRG budget. The finance committee’s changes seem to have the support of the PUK. On May 30, Iraq’s Federal Supreme Court ruled that a vote by the Kurdistan region’s parliament in October of last year to extend its term by one year was illegal, rendering the regional legislature’s fifth cycle “over” and any decisions it made after the extension “constitutionally invalid.” The case challenging the extension was filed at the time by the New Generation opposition party. In response to the Court’s decision, the ruling KDP issued a statement calling on all Kurdish parties to “cooperate to hold transparent and fair elections.” In other developments, on May 30, the UN Security Council unanimously adopted resolution 2682, extending UNAMI’s mandate for one year. On May 30, Iraq’s Planning Ministry said that conducting a population census will not be possible this year, citing delays in approving the federal budget as the main reason. more…
