TomStar81 is taking a short wikibreak and will be back on Wikipedia in full force sometime in November or December. Presently, school concerns regarding the fall semester and the upcoming spring semester registration, class selection, and payment processes have compelled Tom to take leave absence. Tom asks that he not be bothered to return to Wikipedia unless his presence on a matter is absolutely needed, and thanks everyone in advance for their patience and understanding on this matter.

The Cost of Freedom is Always High
"For the families of the seven, we cannot bear, as you do, the full impact of this tragedy. But we feel the loss, and we're thinking about you so very much. Your loved ones were daring and brave, and they had that special grace, that special spirit that says, 'Give me a challenge and I'll meet it with joy.' |
The mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) is a tropical evergreen tree with edible fruit native to Maritime Southeast Asia, from the Malay Peninsula to Borneo. It is grown mainly in Southeast Asia, southwest India, and other tropical areas such as Colombia, Puerto Rico and Florida, where the tree has been introduced. The fruit is sweet and tangy, juicy, somewhat fibrous, with fluid-filled vesicles (like the flesh of citrus fruits), with an inedible, deep reddish-purple colored rind (exocarp) when ripe. In each fruit, the fragrant edible white flesh that surrounds each seed is the endocarp, the inner layer of the ovary, and is roughly the same shape and size as a tangerine, about 4 to 6 centimetres (1.5 to 2.5 inches) in diameter. This photograph, which was focus-stacked from 22 individual images, shows two mangosteens, one whole, and the other halved to expose the endocarp.Photograph credit: Ivar Leidus

Dear Madam,
I have been shown in the files of the War Department a
statement of the Adjutant-General of Massachusetts,
that you are the mother of five sons who have died
gloriously on the field of battle.I feel how weak
and fruitless must be any words of mine which should
attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so
overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering to
you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of
the Republic they died to save. I pray that our
Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your
bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory
of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must
be yours, to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon
the altar of Freedom.
Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,
Abraham Lincoln
