I just read the article and discovered this happened in Colerain Township, a suburb of Cincinnati. No, it is not that Mr. Wife is finding new amusements in retirement.
We have received official word from the Executive Assistant to the Commanding General, US Army Special Operations Command (USASOC) at Fort Bragg, that MG (Retired) Shachnow passed away this morning. His bio is attached.

G'd full of mercy who dwells on high
Protector of widows and father for the fatherless
Please be not silent and show no restraint
on behalf of the Jewish blood that has been spilled like water.
But grant perfect rest on the wings of Your Divine Presence
In the lofty abode of the holy, pure and valiant
who shine as the brightness of the heavens
to the souls of our brothers and sisters
Six million Jewish
men, women and children
Who were put to death, slaughtered, burned,
starved, buried alive
Or who suffered other forms of unnatural death
at the hands of the accursed Nazis
and their associates — may their name be wiped out!
In Auschwitz, Treblinka, Maydanek, Malthausen
and in other death camps in Europe.
And who gave up their lives in order to Sanctify G'd's name.
Because we are at one with their memory
and we pray for the elevation of their souls
Their resting place shall be in the Garden of Eden.
Therefore, shall the Master of mercy care for them
under the protection of His wings for all time
And bind their souls in the bond of everlasting life.
O Earth! Do not conceal their blood
and let there not be a resting place for their cry
In their merit shall the remnant of Israel
return to its rightful place
And as for the holy ones, their righteousness
shall be in front of the Lord as an everlasting memory
They will come in peace and will rest in peace
They will meet their rightful destiny at the end of days
and let us say Amen.

[FOX] A German tourist has been trampled to death by an elephant in Zimbabwe as she tried to take photos of it.
The 49-year-old was at the Mana Pools game reserve north of the country, where she reportedly left the vehicle she was travelling in, putting herself in great danger.
The woman was with a group of tourists who encountered a herd of elephants upon entering the park.
Tinashe Farawo, spokesman of the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority, said: “The information we have is that the tourists encountered a herd of elephants when they were entering the park and they started taking pictures.
“We do not know what irritated the animals which resulted in the woman being attacked. She passed on last night (Wednesday) from injuries.
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] CNN founder Ted Turner still occasionally watches the network he started nearly four decades ago, although he thinks it’s a little heavy on politics.
Turner said in an interview with "CBS Sunday Morning" that airs this weekend that he’d prefer his old network had a more balanced agenda, "but that's just one man's opinion."
Turner hasn’t had anything to do with CNN for years. He’'s 79, and spoke in the CBS interview about his battle with a progressive brain disorder. He has Lewy Body Dementia, and said the main symptoms are exhaustion and forgetfulness.
Turner said he once thought about running for president when he was married to Jane Fonda. He said she told him that if you run for office, you run alone.

The Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate (UOC-MP) reports that activists of the right-wing radical group Right Sector have seized the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity of the UOC-MP in the village of Bohorodchany in Ivano-Frankivsk region.
“They broke down the doors, smashed windows, and beat up believers. According to information obtained by the information and awareness-raising department of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, one man sustained a concussion, another’s hand was broken, and the father superior of the church, Archpriest Volodymyr Shuvar, was also hurt,” the UOC-MP said on its official website on Sept. 28.
Ukraine’s National Police could not yet comment on the report, but promised to provide data a bit later.
Today in Zhitomir September 28, during the trial of the blogger Muravitsky , a fight broke out between his support group and activists of the C-14 (Right Sector). After this activists noticed near the cafe "ShariKava" along Kievskaya street, where they staged another action against this institution.
The battle took place between the young guys in balaclava, in clothes with the symbols "C14" and employees of "Sharikawa." Right-wing radicals threw the institution with smoke bombs, workers and visitors to the cafe had to be quickly evacuated. Firefighters and police arrived on alarm. As a remembrance of themselves, the guys left the inscription "Boycott to the Vatniki".
Activists of C14 claim that the owners of the popular cafe "quilted". The reason is the placement on the website of the network of the map of Ukraine without the Crimea.
Sharikawa issued an official statement in which they apologized and admitted a mistake.
Recall that on the night of 27 to 28 August representatives of the right-wing public organization C14 painted the windows of a cafe on Old Boulevard in Zhitomir.
Earlier, unknown persons in masks smashed windows of "Sharikava" coffee houses in Zhitomir.
[Al Jazeera] Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi dismissed fears on Friday that his country was seeking to overtake the United States as the pre-eminent world power, saying Beijing wants global harmony.
Pointing to recent works of US scholars who say China is stepping up efforts for hegemony, Wang said: "I want to tell you very clearly that this is a serious strategic misjudgment.
"It is a misguided anticipation that will be extremely detrimental to US interests and the future of the United States," Wang told the Council on Foreign Relations in New York City, where he was attending the UN General Assembly.

[Al Jazeera] Danish police on Friday cut off the eastern island of Zealand, where the capital Copenhagen sits, from the rest of the country as well as from neighbouring Germany and Sweden as they launched a nationwide manhunt over a suspected kidnapping.
Bridges from Denmark's Zealand to the central island of Funen and to Sweden, as well as ferry crossings to Germany and Sweden, were closed, causing major traffic jams near bridges to Sweden and to the mainland.
Danish police said in a statement that they "are searching for a black Swedish-registered Volvo V90 with registration number ZBP 546".
"The vehicle probably contains three persons linked to a serious crime," the statement said.
Calle Persson, a press front man for the Swedish police, told Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet the "scene of the crime" was Malmo airport in Sweden.
Television footage showed cars being checked as they drove through roadblocks at the Oresund bridge to Sweden, causing traffic jams up to 15km long, according to the Danish Road Directorate.
The car is registered with First Rent A Car in Stockholm. Police warned the public not to approach the individuals in the vehicle.
Denmark's TV2 said a police helicopter and a search with canine squads was spotted on the highway near Roskilde, 25km west of Copenhagen.
Copenhagen airport remained open during the manhunt, according to its website.
Copenhagen police later said all bridges and ferry crossings had been reopened, but heavily armed coppers were screening cars at bridges and ferries across the country.
Though the bridges and ferry crossings have opened, police "have personnel standing at every connection to make manual checks", Copenhagen police spokesperson Riad Tolba was quoted as saying by UK newspaper The Telegraph.

Curious no mention of the kidnapee or circumstances. Appears to be a total transit shutdown around the capitol.
The A.B.A. request was made on Thursday evening in a letter from the association's president, Robert M. Carlson, to the Senate Judiciary Committee's chairman, Charles E. Grassley, an Iowa Republican, and Senator Dianne Feinstein of California, the senior Democrat on the panel.
The bar association urged that senators vote on Judge Kavanaugh's nomination "only after an appropriate background check into the allegations made by Professor Blasey and others is completed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation," the letter said.
The call for a pause is significant not just because of the bar association's clout in the legal community, but because an A.B.A. committee had said unanimously a month ago that Judge Kavanaugh was "well qualified" for the Supreme Court, its highest possible designation.
The actual committee released this:
The Senate Judiciary Committee released this letter on Friday from the ABA stating that Robert Carlson, the President of the American Bar Association who wrote the letter, didn't get the it approved by the committee that actually votes on this sort of thing and that the ABA's rating of Judge Kavanaugh "is not affected"
So either the president went rogue... or they are playing both ends against the middle. If they are determined to be neutral they at least need to sensor the president, but better outright fire him. Otherwise the later statement by the committee is CYA statements and the organization needs to be denounced by the right.
[GEO.TV] The Supreme Court of Pakistain on Thursday sought a report from the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) regarding progress in Axact fake degree scandal case.
A three-member bench of the apex court, led by Chief Justice Saqib Nisar, conducted hearing of the case, during which Director General (DG) FIA Bashir Memon said a local court in Islamabad has sentenced 23 accused in the case.
He informed the Supreme Court that Axact CEO Shoaib Sheikh and two others have been incarcerated You have the right to remain silent... and moved to prison.
During the hearing, Axact's counsel claimed that Sheikh surrendered himself to the FIA. At this, the chief justice remarked that the Axact CEO could never present himself for arrest and he was aware of all what happened.
The DG FIA informed the court that there still were two cases pending against Axact in Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... . A case against the company was dismissed in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar ...capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa administrative and economic hub for the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan. Peshawar is situated near the eastern end of the Khyber Pass, convenient to the Pak-Afghan border. Peshawar has evolved into one of Pakistan's most ethnically and linguistically diverse cities, which means lots of gunfire. , he said, adding that a petition was filed against it.

[Al Jazeera] Pope Francis defrocked a Chilean priest who was at the centre of a global sex abuse scandal rocking his papacy.
A statement issued by the Vatican on Friday said Father Fernando Karadima, 88, was "reduced to the lay state" by the pope, a move it called "exceptional" and done "for the good of the Church".
Karadima sexually abused teenage boys over many years and now lived in a home for the elderly in the Chilean capital, Santiago.
He was found guilty in a Vatican investigation in 2011 and ordered to live a life of "prayer and penitence", but was not defrocked at the time, the final years of the reign of former Pope Benedict.
That meant he was still a priest, although he could not minister in public.
Karadima, who has always denied any wrongdoing, escaped civilian justice because of the statute of limitations in the country.
Seven Chilean bishops have resigned since June after an investigation into an alleged cover-up of Karadima's crimes, some of them former proteges of Karadima, who prepared them for the priesthood as young men in Santiago's up-scale, conservative El Bosque neighbourhood.

Too late. What about the bishops that protected him? They are Bergoglio Buddies, his socialist and Jesuit liberal gay cronies. And thats why the Catholic Church will continue to rot as long as there isnt an orthodox pope who isnt afraid to fight the vatican and the liberals and drain that swamp.
[Free Beacon] The defense spending bill passed by the House of Representatives Wednesday includes $1 million for the Pentagon to hire "gender advisors."
An amendment sponsored by Democrats passed by voice vote to give women "a seat at the table" during diplomatic negotiations.
"When women's voices are heard, they can be catalysts for change‐especially when it comes to peace," said Rep. Lois Frankel (D., Fla.), after her amendment was included in the defense spending bill.
The amendment authorizes $1 million in taxpayer-funding for the Department of Defense to hire "gender advisors" and for training on "gender perspectives at the war colleges."
"I'm thrilled my amendment securing funding for women in security efforts passed today, which will: (1) provide $3 million for our military branches to implement the Women, Peace and Security Act, helping countries to integrate women into security efforts and (2) Provide the Department of Defense $1 million to hire gender advisors who will assist in military missions and training to make sure more women are involved in foreign operations," Frankel said. "Women can create long-lasting peace‐let's give them a seat at the table!"
The text of the amendment specifically calls for $900,000 for training on the "meaningful participation of women" and $100,000 for training on "gender perspectives."

Gender advisors. Those poor individuals who get those jobs. Just imagine their first day even on the job.
Where will they work? What building will they occupy? The Office ?
Does the Office have windows ?
Who will they report to? The Pentagon is a big place. You can't even go about INSIDE the parking Lot without a special Pass. The passes are coded only for certain areas for Security reasons. Marine Guards are everyplace....and they will shoot you, its sorta their job. Stay in your specified area and you will have a bathroom facility . But even 1$$ Million dollars extended over a years time isn't a lot. You poor bastard. By day two or three you will begin to understand and you will have time to think about the rest of the 365 days ahead. Imagine advising General Matthis on strange and various "Genders". Will he offer you a chair? Imagine a title printed on your Office Door. Just imagine. "When women's voices are heard..." Imagine.
