The Tzagoumis Chronicles consist of nineteen vignettes from the College of Medicine of The Ohio State University having taken place in the final 25 years of the twentieth century as reported by a former Professor of Neurosurgery. The vignettes are startling because of negative, pernicious, and even satanic actions of the Dean and professors of surgery and medicine at that institution. Concentrations of supervisory antisocial behavior in an academic college of medicine has hitherto not been reported. The fact that the Dean, Chairman of Surgery, and others tolerated and perpetuated this behavior is perplexing. The reader will be astounded at the concentration of such behaviors. Vignettes are documented when possible by objective criteria, including newspaper reports, State of Ohio medical board reports and legal briefs. There is wide reader appeal since these occurrences are unheard of in the annals of academic medicine in such concentration.

Data were gathered in two parts. The Change Style Indicator assessment was used to sort how each employee ordered along the change preference scale in part one. A follow-up survey assessed adaptations to remote work, digital tools, skills, programs, and strategies used by staff during the all-digital period. The population of 98 Ohio 4-H professionals completed both parts of the survey.

"'Jefferson' (OSU 703.007) was developed and evaluated at Oregon State University in Corvallis, Oregon, and was released in January 2009. This variety combines very high resistance to eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by the fungus Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Müller with large nut size, good kernel quality, and high yields. 'Jefferson' was released for the in-shell market as an EFB-resistant replacement for 'Barcelona'. Kernel quality is suitable for many end-uses. Like its predecessors 'Santiam' (February 2005) and 'Yamhill' (January 2008), 'Jefferson' is suitable for planting in areas with high EFB disease pressure."--Page 1.

"'Yamhill' (OSU 542.102) was developed and evaluated by the hazelnut breeding program at Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon, and was released in January 2008. Trees of 'Yamhill' are completely resistant to eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Müller. Compared to 'Barcelona', trees of 'Yamhill' are smaller but very productive, and nuts mature at the same time as those of 'Santiam' and 'Gamma', approximately 10-15 days ahead of 'Barcelona'. Marketable nut yields exceed 'Barcelona', and kernels have few defects, although they are small and best suited for the kernel market."--Page 1.

Kingdom of Light; The Forces of Darkness Ira Breitling---Man of God; Manuel Crow---Lord of Darkness Even the universe is not big enough for the both of them . . . especially when Ira Breitling is handed a divine gift---an interstellar engine that can lift humanity into the heavens. Crow---awash in riches, commanding nations, supremely powerful---swears eternal vengeance on Breitling and his Fellowship of the Faithful . . . and on all humankind. The reign of Lucifer---prophesized as a thousand years of darkness---is about to begin. With the world falling fast under Crow's violent sway, Breitling's Fellowship---having only one choice---seizes their divine gift, their faster-than-light flight, and flees the earth. Their journey takes them beyond the distant stars to a perfect planet uncorrupted by Crow and his Kingdom of Darkness. But even as Manuel Crow razes and racks the Earth, Revelations' scourge is not yet sated. Crows eyes the heavens, fixed on the Faithful. Ira Breitling and the Fellowship must defend not only themselves but the soul of all humanity: A Kingdom of Light against the Forces of Darkness. Will the Fellowship prevail . . . or fall under Revelations' reign? Let the battle begin.
