Lewis Cass (October 9, 1782 – June 17, 1866) was an American military officer and politician. During his long political career, Cass served as a governor of the Michigan Territory, an American ambassador, a U.S. Senator representing Michigan, and co-founder as well as first Masonic Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Michigan. He was the losing nominee of the Democratic Party for president in 1848. Cass was nationally famous as a leading spokesman for the controversial Doctrine of Popular Sovereignty, which would have allowed voters in the territories to determine whether to make slavery legal instead of having Congress decide.
Cass was born in Exeter, New Hampshire, where he attended Phillips Exeter Academy. His parents were Major Jonathan Cass and Molly Gilman. In 1800 he moved with his family to Marietta, Ohio. On May 26, 1806, he married the former Elizabeth Spencer. Interested in "passing knowledge forward" Cass joined the Freemasons on May 7, 1804 and was later elected as the third Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Ohio on January 4, 1808. Later he went on to co-found the Grand Lodge of Michigan being elected as its first Grand Master on July 21, 1826.

Lewis (Scottish Gaelic: Leòdhas, pronounced [ʎɔː.əs̪], also Isle of Lewis) is the northern part of Lewis and Harris, the largest island of the Western Isles or Outer Hebrides (an archipelago) of Scotland. The total area of Lewis is 683 square miles (1,770 km2).
Lewis is, in general, the lower lying part of Lewis and Harris, with the other part, Harris, being more mountainous. The flatter, more fertile land means Lewis contains the largest settlement, Stornoway, and three-quarters of the population of the Western Isles. Beyond human habitation, the island's diverse habitats are home to an assortment of flora and fauna, such as the golden eagle, red deer and seals and are recognised in a number of conservation areas.
Lewis is of Presbyterian tradition with a rich history, having once been part of the Norse Kingdom of Mann and the Isles. Today, life is very different from elsewhere in Scotland with Sabbath observance, the Gaelic language and peat cutting retaining more importance than elsewhere. Lewis has a rich cultural heritage as can be seen from its myths and legends as well as the local literary and musical traditions.
Plot
A Desert Between Us & Them: Raiders, Traitors, and Refugees in the War of 1812 is a cinematic documentary that explores those stories that make the War of 1812 a "modern war" by stepping back in time to experience the conflict through the eyes of the people of Southwestern Ontario, who spent several years living in a War Zone. Some died in combat, but many more had their homes destroyed, their livelihoods ruined or their crops stolen. Thousands became refugees, clinging for survival to the British Army. Some chose to aid the Americans, and died for their disloyalty at the hands of the British. Others became insurgents, fighting the American occupiers long after the British army abandoned them. And still others begrudgingly agreed to uphold an ancient covenant, and fought against their brothers in the United States. By the time word of peace finally came in early 1815, almost everyone living in the War's Western Theatre was impacted in some way by the conflict - and many had their lives forever altered.

Leise, leise,
Hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm
Sie und ich spazier'n gemeinsam durch den Sand
Die Abendsonne wirft schon lange Schatten aud den Strand
Die Möwen Kreisen weit entfernt am Horizont
Dort liegt ein Seehund der sich noch ein wenig sonnt
Es könnt' so friedlich sein ein letzter Hauch von Sommer
Doch sie erzählt mal wieder ohne Punkt und Komma
Es ist kaum zu ertragen
Ich würde ihr so gern mal sagen
Leise, sei mal leise
Bitte bitte halt die Klappe
Schenk mir einmal eine Knappe
Halbe Stunde nur mit Schweigen
Dann wär' mein Himmel voller geigen
Du bist die Frau die ich will
Aber gibt's dich auch in Still
Ich kenn' ein Kloster
Da is g'rad ein Zimmer frei geworden
Da würd' ich gern mal mit ihr fahren
Denn das ist ein Schweige Orden
Und im Supermarkt kaufe ich für sie Anstelle
Von Normalem Sprudelwasser immer nur noch stille Quelle
Ich schenk' ihr eine DVD Das Schweigen der Lämmer
Wir sitzen auf dem Kanapee
Sie redet und ich dämmer
Ich weiß selbst nicht genau
Warum ich mich nie zu sagen trau
Leise, sei mal leise
Bitte bitte halt die Klappe
Schenk mir einmal eine Knappe
Halbe Stunde nur mit Schweigen
Dann wär' mein Himmel voller geigen
Du bist die Frau die ich will
Aber gibt's dich auch in Still
Eines Tages gibt's deshalb noch Totschlag oder Mord
Doch das kann ich ihr nicht sagen
Denn ich komm' ja nie zu Wort
Düh düh düh
Leise, sei mal leise
Bitte bitte halt die Klappe
Schenk mir einmal eine Knappe
Halbe Stunde nur mit Schweigen
Dann wär' mein Himmel voller geigen
Du bist die Frau die ich will
