(KTUL) — Since 2013 Monte Cassino has donated over 302,000 diapers and over 1,500 packages of baby wipes for the youngest poor in Tulsa and Eastern Oklahoma This year's diaper drive broke a school record with 26,836 diapers and 24 packages of baby wipes that's one way to describe the flurry of activity taking place at Monte Cassino "So we’re loading these diapers in the car to take them to Catholic Charities," said 7th grader Josie Hull For over 10 years Monte Cassino has become diaper central "Every year at Monte Cassino we do a diaper drive for Catholic schools week," said 7th grader Anna Denny "We really wanted to reach our goal of 25,000 so we called businesses in Utica we put up posters and all sorts of stuff," she said "Tell them where we’re from and what the cause is and stuff," said 7th grader Harper Akins The diapers came rolling in and the students rolled up their sleeves "So you get the diapers and you group them into groups of ten by their size," said Anna "We like got really into it and really enjoyed it so we started coming in at recess and during our free time and being able to sort diapers," said Harper On this day they got to see all that hard work pay off "It makes a big difference," said Angela Grissom of Madonna House at Catholic Charities She says the delivery will certainly make an impact "We help pregnant moms and moms with infants up to a year," said Grissom homeless and I found out this place and I came and did my interview and we’ve been here since," she said The access to diapers has been a huge relief "So I have not had to buy diapers since I was six months pregnant with him," she said where those who give also end up receiving as well "Made me like realize how fortunate I am and how I should use those blessings I have to give back to others," said Josie James Holland continues to solidify his place as one of the preeminent popular historians of the Second World War Sometimes he bears down on comparatively neglected battles and campaigns while at other points he more or less adds to an already groaning pile But however needed or original his histories what has noticeably increased in power as he has published and matured as a historian – is his outright and inviting readability and control of his narrative are done with a feeling of ease that attends a confident and enthusiastic historian and histories of battles more narrowly can grind into minutiae that stultify and turn away readers who might otherwise be welcomed into what is a brutal sliver of arguably the most dramatic large-scale event in human history it manages to be detailed and specific while also covering a bigger picture and the net effect is a communicable vessel for World War Two intrigue while you won’t find much unfamiliar source material Holland’s framing of the campaign and assessments of Generals like Mark Clark and Francis Tuker is totally refreshing Sandwiched between the United States entering the jaws of this conflict via North Africa in 1942 against the German’s Afrika Korps and the massive 1944 Operation Overlord which conquered Hitler’s so-called Atlantic Wall and initiated the Allied liberation of Western Europe the most significant battles for Italy don’t hang in the popular imagination so prominently as they might Holland’s new book itself exists in a middle of a trilogy written out of chronological order about this Italian campaign (bracketed by The Savage Storm: The Battle for Italy 1943 and Italy's Sorrow: A Year of War centered on the fights leading up to and encompassing the Battle for Rome feels new and is certainly the best contemporary work readers will find in their bookstores on these battles very early here dominating personalities such as Field Marshals Bernard Montgomery and Erwin Rommel are sent away from Italy to prepare for that coming fight in France coupled with an “overly optimistic” hope of a quick victory in Italy meant the latter theater was relatively under-resourced It wasn’t a lack of manpower that was the issue or even guns or ordnance; it was the means of getting them there because for all the many shipyards in the United States – and Britain for that matter – there was simply not enough shipping being produced for the demand of a truly global war: supplying the Soviet Union; sending vast amounts of aid to Chiang Kai-shek’s nationalist Chinese Army to fight the Japanese; the Indian Army’s campaign in Burma and the Americans’ across the Pacific Then there was the primary effort in Europe: the future cross-Channel invasion of Normandy .Priority of shipping – both merchant shipping and assault shipping for landing on beaches – was for OVERLORD Holland ably shows how this affects military decisions in Operation Shingle (the amphibious prelude to the Battle of Anzio) and adeptly ties this material concern into the personal drama as we find the US officer in command prior to the landing “sitting in his cabin that evening with a massive knot of anxiety in his stomach wondering what the hell lay in store and trying to convince himself all would be OK.” but there was a more wrenching calculus involved at this point in Italy: .although there were many reasons for the urgency to hurry up and get the war done and dusted one of them was the rate at which all the major combatant nations were getting through the available manpower because the harder commanders pushed their men but the alternative for the Allies was to do nothing call off any further offensives and wait for better weather and longer days when their overwhelming airpower could achieve more badly depleted divisions in Italy but not drawing off any more from France Allied troops had to lose their lives and limbs in Italy in order for fewer to lose their lives and limbs in Normandy all the more painful is the insult from Viscountess Astor every book on this subject mentions that these Allied servicemembers were the “D-Day Dodgers.” Dodgers who fought in battles compared to the reputations and interplay of personalities the enemy are all here in this sizeable volume As a product (in its essential accompanying material meaning maps James

Harris an edge over former President Donald Trump in November’s election by a three-point margin (50 to 47) Harris would be the first woman President: but according to the latest results from the FDU Poll it’s perceptions of Trump’s masculinity that are key to the election with his support depending on the 41 percent of voters who say that he’s “completely masculine.” “Trump’s appeal is based on his performance of a certain kind of masculinity,” said Dan Cassino a professor of Government and Politics at Fairleigh Dickinson “When voters don’t buy into that performance both candidates have secured the support of their respective bases Harris has the support of 95 percent of Democrats (including independents who lean Democratic) 92 percent of self-identified liberals and 87 percent of progressive voters Trump holds 93 percent of Republicans (including leaners) and 82 percent of self-identified conservatives Once leaners are grouped in with their parties there are relatively few true independents left Harris also has a significant lead among the portion of voters (8 percent) who identify as being members of the LGBTQ+ community among whom she has a massive 58-point edge likely voters were asked to rate both the masculinity and the femininity of the major party candidates for President as well as their running mates While this campaign has featured frequent discussion of how the candidates are attempting to perform masculinity and femininity this is the first survey to directly measure how voters perceive the gender of the candidates Forty-one percent of likely voters say that Trump is “completely masculine,” including 68 percent of Republicans Democrats are much more likely to say that the former President is “not at all masculine,” with 33 percent saying so Most voters (65 percent) say that Trump is “not at all feminine,” but 50 percent of Democrats say that he’s at least a little feminine and seven percent of voters (mostly Democrats) rate him as “completely feminine.” is viewed by most voters as being both somewhat masculine and not completely feminine Fifty-four percent say that she is at least a little masculine and only 32 percent say that she’s “completely feminine.” Democrats (40 percent) are more likely than Republicans (26 percent) to say that the Vice-President is “completely feminine,” but the differences are small relative to views of Trump’s masculinity “Voters tend to associate masculine qualities with leadership qualities so female candidates have to try and be seen as at least somewhat masculine to be seen as leaders,” said Cassino While support for both candidates is correlated with perceptions of their masculinity and femininity the relationship is much stronger for Trump Eighty-four percent of voters who say that Trump is “completely masculine” also say that they’ll vote for him compared to just 24 percent of those who say that he’s not completely masculine Trump has 72 percent support among voters who say that he’s not at all feminine but only 37 percent support among voters who say that he has any feminine traits support for Harris is high among voters who say that she’s “completely feminine” (67 percent) but not that much higher than her 46 percent support among those who say that she’s not completely feminine she has 50 percent support among those who say that she’s at least a little masculine and 54 percent support among those who say that she’s not at all masculine “The demands on Harris and on Trump are very different,” said Cassino “Female candidates have to be seen as both masculine and feminine being seen as being at all feminine is just disastrous for his support.” perceptions of the candidates’ masculinity and femininity are tied to partisanship but the importance of perceptions of Trump’s masculinity on his support is evident even with partisan groups Among the majority of Republicans who say that Trump is “completely masculine,” Trump has almost unanimous support (98 percent); but among those Republicans who place him anywhere else on the masculinity scale Trump has the support of 18 percent of Democrats who say that he’s “completely masculine,” but basically no support (1 percent) among Democrats who say that he’s not at the far end of the masculinity scale views of Harris’s femininity have almost no significant effect on her support “When the Harris campaign suggests that Trump can’t focus on questions they’re attacking his masculine bona fides,” said Cassino “His support depends on people thinking that he’s masculine so they have to cut that perception if they want to pull into the lead.” Senator JD Vance is perceived as being more masculine than the Democratic nominee Thirty-eight percent of voters see Vance as being “completely masculine,” compared with 27 percent for Walz About the same number of voters (11 percent) rate either candidate as being “not at all masculine.” Vance is also more likely to be rated as “not at all feminine” (56 percent) than Walz (41 percent) but there is no sign that these perceptions have any impact on vote choice “Both candidates for Vice-President are performing masculinity “Vance’s more traditional style seems to be more convincing to voters as a form of masculinity than Walz’s more compassionate take.” The survey was conducted between October 8 17 and October 14 using a voter list of registered voters nationwide carried out by Braun Research of Princeton Respondents were contacted via either live caller telephone interviews or text-to-web surveys sent to cellular phones resulting in an overall sample of 806 registered voters nationally 532 of the surveys were carried out via live caller telephone interviews to landlines (30%) and cellphones (70%) and the remainder (274) were done on a web platform via weblinks sent via SMS to cell phones The data were weighted to be representative of the population of voters in the 2020 US Presidential Election balance the demographic characteristics of the sample to match known population parameters The weighted results used here are balanced to match parameters for sex Individuals were considered likely voters in the upcoming Presidential Election if they (a) were registered voters who (b) said that they planned to vote in the upcoming election and (c) had a candidate preference in that election an SPSS extension module that simultaneously balances the distributions of all variables using the GENLOG procedure Weights were trimmed to prevent individual interviews from having too much influence on the final results The use of these weights in statistical analysis helps to ensure that the demographic characteristics of the sample approximate the demographic characteristics of the target population The size of these weights is used to construct the measure of design effects which indicate the extent to which the reported results are being driven by the weights applied to the data these design effects tell us how many additional respondents would have been needed to get the weighted number of respondents across weighted categories: larger design effects indicate greater levels of under-representation in the data calculated design effects are approximately 1.3 largely driven by the weights used on the race/ethnicity variable which is the expected probable difference between interviewing everyone in a population versus a scientific sampling drawn from that population Sampling error should be adjusted to recognize the effect of weighting the data to better match the population the simple sampling error for 806 registered voters is +/-3.5 percentage points the margin of error would be +/-4.6 percentage points though the figure not including them is much more commonly reported This error calculation does not take into account other sources of variation inherent in public opinion studies they are often unquantifiable within a particular survey such as randomization and extensive pre-testing of items The FDU Poll is a proud member of the AAPOR Transparency Initiative and is devoted to ensuring that our results are presented in such a way that anyone can quickly and easily get all of the information that they may need to evaluate the validity of our surveys We believe that transparency is the key to building trust in the work of high-quality

majority of voters don’t believe segregation is an issue in state education State officials are continuing to negotiate a potential settlement to a landmark lawsuit accusing the state’s education system of segregation, but a new poll finds that few New Jerseyans are aware of the lawsuit A Fairleigh Dickinson University poll of New Jersey voters found a majority haven’t heard of the lawsuit or the ongoing negotiations, which could overhaul the Garden State’s education system The poll found that 16% of New Jerseyans have heard “a lot” or “some” about the case which the Latino Action Network filed in 2018 Potential reforms to the school system include city-based magnet schools that draw diverse students from around the respective region and an expansion of a program that lets students attend schools outside their attendance zone, according to the New York Times A coalition of civil rights groups filed the suit accusing the state of severe segregation with a lot of it behind closed doors,” Dan Cassino a professor of government and politics at FDU and the executive director of the FDU Poll we’re going to get an announcement that could fundamentally reshape public schools in New Jersey and it’s going to take a lot of people by surprise.” Cassino said the poll found many New Jerseyans don’t believe the state’s schools are segregated An April analysis found New Jersey’s educational system was the seventh-most segregated system in the country but only about 17 percent of New Jersey voters believe the state is more segregated than school systems in other states The poll found a smaller number of voters (9%) believe the schools in their area are segregated by race “One of the real problems with addressing racial segregation in Jersey schools is that people just do not think it’s happening,” said Cassino “It’s hard to sell people a solution when they don’t think there’s a problem in the first place.” The creation of magnet schools was the most popular potential reform with 60% of voters saying they would find it acceptable Only 35% said a system that required schools to accept transfers from more diverse schools would be acceptable “Regional magnet schools are the most popular solution because they don’t do anything to disrupt the existing school systems,” said Cassino “But it’s also not clear how much they would do to solve the deep underlying problem facing the state.” (KTUL) — The clanging of the bells on the campus of Monte Cassino is a familiar sound at the school but recently students were treated to the cadence of something different

Info on when and where for the DNC that a vice presidential candidate could help you win in a swing state," Cassino said Harris finds several more potential running mates including the front-runner in Cassino's opinion: North Carolina Gov Cooper was elected governor in 2016 and reelected in 2020 he is unable to run this year and would be free to take on another role in 2025 Cassino also mentioned U.S. Senator Mark Kelly of Arizona, a former astronaut born in Orange and the "very well-liked governor of Pennsylvania," Josh Shapiro Shapiro beat a Trump-backed candidate in Doug Mastriano in 2022 Shapiro recently took office and party bosses may be loathe to remove him Notable outliers for Democratic VP candidate roleSome other names being mentioned seem to have very slim odds California Gov. Gavin Newsom has been positioning himself as an "emergency candidate" to replace Biden He debated former candidate for the Republican presidential nomination Florida Gov due to the vagaries of Electoral College rules either he or Harris would likely have to move out of California and establish residency in another state to be paired on the same ticket Other names that may be eyeing a presidential run and would probably keep themselves out of the running for Harris' potential vice-president are Illinois Gov Local: Redding, LaMalfa react to Joe Biden dropping his 2024 presidential run A SurveyUSA/FairVote ranked choice poll in early July found initial first-choice votes for Harris' potential running mate were closely divided among likely Democrats and independent voters in six swing states Of the 2,050 likely voters polled in Arizona Gretchen Whitmer and 14% opted for Shapiro who has been discussed as a potential presidential candidate for the Democrats is another potential option for the swing state strategy with Michigan expected to be crucial in the path to the presidency Biden won the state in 2020 but has been trailing Trump in recent polls The Harris-Whitmer ticket would be the first all-women ticket in history Other contenders are Senator Amy Klobuchar who each received 5% of the first-choice vote to be paired on the ballot with Harris while 4% of voters preferred Harris to run with someone else and 19% were unsure In a ranked choice poll for a Harris running mate Buttigieg narrowly beat Whitmer 52% to 48% The poll also found Harris was the clear favorite to replace Joe Biden among likely Democrats and independent voters in those same six swing states Results showed 37% ranked Harris their first choice to replace Biden and 56% ranked her in their top three A separate poll conducted this month by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found adults have a more favorable opinion of Harris (43%) than both Biden (38%) and Trump (37%) Center officials said 70% of the 1,253 adults polled said Biden should drop out of the race and allow his party to select a different candidate 65% of Democrats polled said Biden should drop out
