Out west, Denes hopes to plant seeds of community with the help of the project’s host, Tinworks, an arts organization in the rapidly developing city of Bozeman. “Wheat is wonderful — it sustains humanity and is probably the most planted food next to rice. Jenny Moore/TinworksSome 200 packets of wheat were also distributed among Bozeman residents to grow concurrently with Denes' field. “Can you imagine if I could have realized 20 or 30?”Sowing seeds for changeAs with “Wheatfield,” seeds have often served as potent symbols for Denes.

Six inmates at a New York prison will get the chance to view the upcoming solar eclipse after they sued. The state corrections department ultimately agreed to let the inmates observe the eclipse. AdvertisementSix men incarcerated at a New York prison will be able to observe the rare solar eclipse that will cross the United States next week after they sued the state. The incarcerated men argued in their lawsuit that the corrections department's decision to lock down its prisons statewide on Monday illegally prohibited them from observing the solar eclipse. Though Woodbourne Correctional Facility is not included on that list, an interactive map by NASA shows that the prison will be impacted, at least partially, by the solar eclipse.

☆ Prisoners Who Sued Over Lockdown Will Be Allowed to View Solar Eclipse
  + stars: | 2024-04-04 | by ( Erin Nolan | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
New York State’s corrections department agreed on Thursday to allow six men who had sued to be able to view Monday’s total solar eclipse to do so at the upstate prison where they are held, but the department stopped short of lifting a statewide prison lockdown during the eclipse. The men, inmates at Woodbourne Correctional Facility in Sullivan County, filed a federal lawsuit last week arguing that the lockdown during the eclipse violated their constitutional right to practice their religion. Though they come from varying religious backgrounds, the men all believe that the eclipse “is a religious event that they must witness and reflect on to observe their faiths,” according to court documents. “This is a huge win for them — they are all ecstatic,” said Chris McArdle, one of the lawyers who represented the men. “Keeping our fingers crossed that it’s not cloudy or raining, they are going to be able to practice their sincerely held religious beliefs, which is the outcome we always wanted for them.”

☆ A group of NY inmates are so desperate to see the upcoming solar eclipse that they're suing to witness the phenomenon

Read previewA rare solar eclipse will soon cross the United States — and six inmates at a New York prison are so desperate to witness the phenomenon that they're suing the state corrections department over it. Related storiesThe lawsuit argues that the corrections department's decision to lock down its prisons statewide on April 8 "illegally prohibits" the group of inmates from observing the solar eclipse. Though Woodbourne Correctional Facility is not included on that list, an interactive map by NASA shows that the prison will be impacted by the solar eclipse. No inmates will be allowed outside to watch the solar eclipse, according to Mailey. The lawsuit says that the atheist plaintiff was granted a special request to view the solar eclipse, but that was before the lockdown rules were put in place.

LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas, April 1 (Reuters) - Arkansas first responders on Saturday will sift through debris for more possible victims after a fierce tornado sliced through the Little Rock area and northeastern part of the state, killing at least two people and injuring dozens of others. Two fatalities in Arkansas were reported in Wynne, about 100 miles (160 km) east of Little Rock, Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders said on Friday night. One person was killed and more than 50 people hospitalized in North Little Rock, Pulaski County spokeswoman Madeline Roberts told the Washington Post. Although more than 30 people were taken to hospital in the Little Rock area, none had died as of Friday night, said Little Rock Mayor Frank Scott Jr., who added that the count remained imprecise.

☆ Couple who allegedly don't believe in medicine failed to take dying newborn to hospital, police say

A Pennsylvania couple was arrested and charged in connection to their newborn son's death after police say they failed to take him to a hospital because they do not believe in modern medicine. Police also found an "infuser and a container with remnants of burned herbs" next to the bassinet, the complaint says. Attorney General Josh Shapiro said "in a failed attempt to aid the child, Amy Hoenigke and Meckes utilized a peppermint oil infuser and attempted to create a makeshift breathing tube from a water bottle." "Without proper medical care, the baby died approximately two days after birth," he said. Drew Hoenigke allegedly told investigators that the ground was frozen from the snow, so they could not bury the child.

A man who vanished from Connecticut nearly 10 years ago, and whose high-profile disappearance was featured on television, has been found dead in upstate New York, where he apparently lived under a different name. Robert Hoagland was last seen the morning of July 28, 2013, at a gas station in Newtown, Connecticut, according to local police. On Tuesday, Newtown police detectives met with the Sullivan County sheriff’s department and confirmed Hoagland’s identity. They learned that Hoagland had been living in Sullivan County since around November 2013 under the new name. NBC News has reached out to the Sullivan County Sheriff's Office and coroner for comment.
