The Captured: A True Story of Abduction by Indians on the Texas Frontier

Product Information

Scott Zechs’s great-great-great-uncle, Adolph Korn, was captured by Indians in 1870. From family stories, Zesch learned that his relative had difficulties readjusting to a farming life once he returned. He decided to find out more about his Uncle Adolph’s life. Since it had been so long and only a small amount of information specific to his uncle was available, he expanded his research to similar situations. This book describes the capture, captivity, release, and ultimate outcomes for nine such individuals, ranging in age from eight to fourteen at the time of their abduction. Most were held by Apaches or Comanches. All were from the Texas hill country and most were German immigrants. Well-targeted policies and a portfolio of measures can help ensure government efforts to support CCUS deployment are effective and successful in the long term. Then the British 30 Corps could advance over the bridges and cross the Rhine and its tributaries. The bridges were at Eindhoven, around 20 kilometres (13 miles) from the start line, Nijmegen, 85 kilometres (53 miles), and Arnhem, 100 kilometres (62 miles) away, as well as two smaller bridges at Veghel and Grave that lay between Eindhoven and Nijmegen.

New business models and deployment approaches for CO 2 management are emerging and can facilitate rapid CCUS scale-up. These include: building multi-user CO 2 management infrastructure; developing “as-a-service” business models for CO 2 capture, transport and storage wherein each part of the chain is offered as third-party operated services; and exploiting new and existing options for CO 2 use to provide a revenue stream to CCUS facilities.Operations were also hampered by a shortage of transport aircraft. The airborne troops were flown into the Netherlands in three lifts rather than all together. Biomass fuel includes wood, agricultural and food-processing wastes, as well as sewage sludge and animal manure. Using crop waste, sewage or manure — wastes that are continually available — to generate electricity offers environmental benefits by preserving precious landfill space and reducing overall emissions. In particular, Zesch focuses on the disparity between life in the German-American Texas communities, and the more easy going and adventurous lifestyle of Comanches and Apaches. He argues that once a child had lived more than a year with Native Americans they demonstrated little desire to return. Family ties and memories, he argued, were obliterated by the excitement and freedom of Native American life. Much of the post-captivity actions he argues were slanted by the fact many of the captives believed themselves Comanches and had little desire to return to a life of hard work and little reward. I always wanted Shaun Emery's story to be resolved within these six hours because I don't like stringing people along," Chanan told RadioTimes.com.

In the summer of 1944, the Allies came up with an ambitious scheme to cross the River Rhine and advance deep into northern Germany and shorten the war.

This technology has been tested through the operation of around 35 pilot projects with coal, gas, oil and biomass combustion. CCUS can be retrofitted to existing power and industrial plants that could otherwise emit 600 billion tonnes of CO 2 over the next five decades – almost 17 years’ worth of current annual emissions.

Imagine if Corrections was really exposed. There wouldn't be a person caught on CCTV who wouldn't appeal their sentence in the last ten years. So it would throw the global justice systems into complete chaos.Co-ordinating hub development through competitive solicitations that encourage collaboration across multiple sectors (e.g. industrial emitters, power plants). Efforts are already underway in Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom. The widespread adoption of economy-wide decarbonisation targets for 2050 is stimulating the diversification of CO 2 capture applications. Currently, around 65% of operating CO 2 capture capacity is at natural gas processing plants, one of the lowest-cost CO 2 capture applications, but new CCUS developments are increasingly targeting other applications. Based on the current project pipeline, by 2030 annual capture capacity from both new construction and retrofits could amount to around 90 Mt CO 2 from hydrogen production, around 80 Mt CO 2 from power generation and around 35 Mt CO 2 from industrial facilities (e.g. cement and steel production). Russia has so far not commented on the videos released and has revealed very little information about the state of its soldiers fighting in Ukraine. The Russian ministry of defence on Sunday evening for the first time admitted that there were “dead and wounded soldiers amongst our comrade[s]”, but added that “the number of destroyed [Ukrainian] nationalists by far outweigh” the number of Russian casualties.
