This is for real!!!!! A side door to the house had blown open while they were gone!!!!!

Newell, Iowa couple digging snow out of their home

NEWELL, Iowa (KTIV) -- As many people were digging out their driveways and sidewalks last weekend, one Newell, Iowa couple arrived home to find their home filled with snow.

Steve and Betty Ehlers shared these pictures taken by family member Jim Ehlers of their home after the blizzard.

They say they were out of town when Jim checked on the home Sunday morning and discovered a side door had blown open.

Steve and Betty say Jim, with some help from his wife, had shoveled all of the snow, except for some that had made its way into the closets and cupboards!

The couple says they are very thankful to Jim.

Wow! That's what I call getting "snowed in"!





This Day…

March 16, 597: Nebuchadnezzar captures Jerusalem and begins deporting Jews to Babylon. [1][1] King Jehoiachin and many other leadeing citizens, including a young priest named Ezekiel, are exiled to Babylon. Zedekiah, uncle of Jehoiachin, is appointed king of Judah. [2][2] In the Bible, the event is recorded in 2 Kings 24:1ff. and in 2 Chronicles 36:5-8. It is also implied in the early chapters of Jeremiah and Ezekiel.[3]



597 BC: When Nebuchadnezzar deported the Judaeans in 597 and 586 BC, he allowed them to remain in a unified community in Babylon. Another group of Judaeans fled to Egypt, where they settled in the Nile delta. So from 597 onwards, there were three distinct groups of Hebrews: a group in Babylon and other parts of the Middle East, a group in Judaea, and another group in Egypt. Thus, 597 is considered the beginning date of the Jewish Diaspora.[4]

March 16, 37: Caligula becomes Roman Emperor after the death of his great uncle, Tiberius. Caligula was a challenge to all those he ruled, including the Jews, because he was “crazy.” Among other things, he appointed his favorite horse to the position of Consul. He did present a special problem for Jews because he believed he was a god and expected to be worshipped by his subjects. Fortunately, he never succeeded in having his golden image installed in the Temple of Jerusalem. After a bizarre meeting with a delegation of Jews from Alexander that included the famous Philo, Caligula said of the Jews, “They’re not so bad after all. They’re just a poor, stupid people unable to believe in my divinity”.[5]

Caligula (37-41 A.D. was a grandson of Augustus and was adopted as son by Tibreius. Caligula was a crazed megalomaniac who declared himself a “god,” married his siter Drusilla, and murdered countless senators and members of the Roman aristocracy. Caligula’s own palace guard assassinated him. [6]

March 16: 455: Valentinian III, Western Roman Emperor passed away. During his reign, the position of Jews continued to worsen. Under one imperial decree, Jews were excluded from government service and were prohibited from practicing law. Another decree made it possible for the children of Jews who converted to Christianity to inherit the property of their Jewish parents.[7]

455 A.D. Attila the Huns reign of terror in the Baltic has just ended. Also in 455 the mysterious drawings are etched into the arid Peruvian landscape.[8]

March 16, 1190: 500 Jews of York were massacred after a six day siege by departing Crusaders, backed by a number of people indebted to Jewish money-lenders. German chronicler’s account in Medieval Sourcebook.[9] On the Sabbath eve before Passover ("Shabbat Hagadol") in York, England, a group made up of clergy, barons indebted to the Jews, and crusaders waiting to follow Richard, set Jewish houses on fire and stole all their valuables. The Jews under Josce, a prominent Jew of York, and their Rabbi, Yom Tov of Joigny (a contemporary of Rabbenu Tam and author of the Yom Kippur Hymn "Omnam Ken"), fled to the castle. Richard Malebys (a noble who owed large sums to Jewish moneylenders) commanded the attackers. For 6 days the Jews held out. A monk who came each morning to celebrate mass and inflame the crowd was killed by a stone thrown from the tower. Facing the choice of baptism or death, most chose death. (Josce killed his wife and two children, and was in turn killed by the Rabbi). The vast majority killed themselves after destroying their belongings. Josce was the last to die. The few who remained opened the gate and requested baptism. They were massacred anyway. Over 150 Jews died.[10]

In March, 1675, the General Assembly, in order to stop the Indian depredations, appointed & number of forts, and Major Lawrence Smith to command one hundred and eleven men out of Gloucester.[11]

Lawrence Smith is the compilers 9th great grandfather.



“Members of the Governor’s Council were invariably chosen from the wealthiest, the most capable and influential citizens of Virginia, prominent, both socially and politically.”[13]



March 1676

"Major Lawrence Smith

(spelled Laurence in the Va. magazine), born in England, and came to

Virginia early in the 17th Century, died 1700. In March 1676, or order to

stop Indian depredations, the Governor ordered a number of forts to be

built along the rapahannock and Potomac and placed Major Smith in

charge of all of them.

March 16, 1911: Josef Mengele was born on March 16, 1911, in Gunzburg, Germany. His father founded Frima Karl Mengele & Sohne, a factory that produced farm machinery, in Bavaria. In college, Mengele first studied philosophy, imbibing the rascist theories of Alfred Rosenberg—who posited the innate intellectual and moral superiority of Aryans—and then took a medical degree at the University of Frankfurt am Main. Soon thereafter he enlisted in the SA, the paramilitary force of the Nazi Party. Mengele was so enthusiastic about Nazism that in 1934 he joined the research staff of the Nazi Institute for Hereditary Biology and Racial Hygiene.

When war erupted, Mengele was a medical officer with the SS, the elite squad of Hitler's bodyguards who later emerged as a secret police force that waged campaigns of terror in the name of Nazism. In 1943, Mengele was called to a position that would earn him his well-deserved infamy. SS head Heinrich Himmler appointed Mengele the chief doctor of the Auschwitz death camps in Poland.

Mengele, in distinctive white gloves, supervised the selection of Auschwitz' incoming prisoners for either torturous labor or immediate extermination, shouting either "Right!" or "Left!" to direct them to their fate. Eager to advance his medical career by publishing "groundbreaking" work, he then began experimenting on live Jewish prisoners. In the guise of medical "treatment," Mengele injected, or ordered others to inject, thousands of inmates with everything from petrol to chloroform to study the chemicals' effects. Among other atrocities, he plucked out the eyes of Gypsy corpses to study eye pigmentation, and conducted numerous gruesome studies of twins.

Mengele managed to escape imprisonment after the war, first by working as a farm stableman in Bavaria, then by moving to South America. He became a citizen of Paraguay in 1959. He later moved to Brazil, where he met up with another former Nazi party member, Wolfgang Gerhard. In 1985, a multinational team of forensic experts traveled to Brazil in search of Mengele. They determined that a man named Gerhard had died of a stroke while swimming in 1979. Dental records later revealed that Mengele had, at some point, assumed Gerhard's identity and was the stroke victim.

A fictional account of Josef Mengele's life after the war was depicted in the film Boys from Brazil, with Mengele portrayed by Gregory Peck.[18]
