Prof. Sang-Jin Han held a press conference on June 15, 2017, at the Korean Press Center, and presented main results of the recent survey on the 1980s generation('386 generation'). It is a common idea that the 386 generation as a whole, which led the democratization movement in the 1980s, is a strongly politicized group. Breaking this stereotype view, however, this survey shows that there is a group active in helping the weak in everyday life rather than in political activity within the 386 generation. Based on this result, Prof. Han Sang-jin insisted that there are two different groups within the 80s generation, the politicized 80s generation and the 80s generation in life-world and that we need to pay more attention to the non-political, practical and life-centered potential of the latter.
Following the press conference, Prof. Sang-Jin Han also had a briefing meeting with the 386 generations who responded to the survey. After briefing the main survey results, Prof. Sang-Jin Han talked about the future cooperation schedule with them, emphasizing that the 386 generation is not merely the subject matter but the important partner of research.

This week is the Java week of the year, Devoxx time. I has been trending on twitter since monday, but I'm only going the first 2 conference days, so tomorrow is the big day.
Last year the keynotes (by oracle) were very boring and Stephan promised some better ones this year. It looks like he succeeded. After the keynotes I'm going to focus
on the Future
Every year I also pick some talks just based on the speakers, since a good speaker mostly means a good talk.
So this is my programme
- Wednesday
- Keynotes
- The secrest of the Square Stack
- Home automation for geeks
- Do you like coffee with your dessert? Java and the raspberry Pi or Fork/Join (doubting since the fork/join and lambda talks aren't very appeling to me)
- Effective Scala
- Thursday
- Keynotes
- How to build big data pipelines for Hadoop using OSS
- OAuth 2 and Identity
- Simplicity in Scala design (will have to skip Akka talk )
- JavaPosse LIVE (du'h)
- Re-imagining the browser with angularjs
If you see me, come say hi!

German GP 2013
Friday Press Conference
TEAM REPRESENTATIVES - Sam Michael (McLaren), Tom McCULLOUGH (Sauber), Pat FRY (Ferrari), Paul HEMBERY (Pirelli), Paddy LOWE (Mercedes)
Q: Paul, can I start with you, and welcome back. Can we recap? We saw what happened at Silverstone, we know the changes that have been introduced with the tyres. Logistically, how big a challenge has that been for Pirelli? Also, tell us the reasoning behind the changes here and at future races this season?
Paul HEMBERY: Just to recap, at Silverstone we'd underestimated the impact of swapping the tyres. The cars were two, maybe three seconds quicker this year. Whilst we'd allowed the teams to do that, we'd underestimated the impact on the tyre. When you swap them around that creates a point with the metallic belt that we have on it, on the left-hand side, the camber side, and that created the weakness. We got that wrong and we needed to get it right going forward. So making changes, coming here the metallic belt has changed to an aramid belt, which is something the teams tested briefly in Canada. And going forward further again, we'll introduce the 2012 structure with this year's compounds for subsequent races. Logistically, yes, very, very tough. Obviously back-to-back races and our team in Izmit in Turkey have performed a few miracles, working flat out, as you can imagine, to get here, ready to race this weekend.
Q: Can you put a figure on the amount of tyres you've had to produce in the 48 hours?
Hembrey: I think it was about 1000, something like that. We had a few maybe in stock but we had to produce them. But they work very well and we have to give a lot of credit to them.
Q: Pat, a difficult morning for you and one half of the garage at Ferrari. What was the problem with Fernando's car and how much did you lose by the lack running?
Pat FRY: Well, I think every time your car doesn't get out on the track you lose out really. We had a reasonably full aero programme that we effectively had to give up on. We did a little in the afternoon but nowhere near as much as we wanted to. It's just one of those silly little electrical problems. It takes you a while to work what's wrong and by the time you do it just takes too long to sort out.
Q: Do you feel Ferrari have lost performance with recent developments and upgrades and if so how easy it to fix that decline?
Fry: It is a development race all through the year isn't it. We've brought some good upgrades and there's some that have been a little bit more temperamental that we're trying to understand. So again you would have seen there were different specs of car running here again in each side of the garage in the morning and in the afternoon.
Q: Tom, if we can turn to you. Silverstone was your third points finish of the season. It's a vastly different situation at Sauber to last year. What exactly is the problem?
Tom McCULLOUGH: Well obviously last year we started the year very strongly, scored a lot of points at the start of the season and moving to the end of the year we weren't quite as competitive on a regular basis. The start of this season has moved us a couple of positions in the team ranking from a competitiveness point of view and that very quickly drops you out of the points. So as opposed to fighting in the points, you're just dropping out of the points. We're working very hard with the car to improve it to try to get back into the points-scoring positions on a more regular basis.
Q: As a member of the engineering department, how restricted are you by resources as you try to develop the car to make it go faster?
McCullough: You always have to work within your budgets, from a technical point of view, where you're pushing very hard on the correlation side to understand the car as well as we can do. We have an update package coming for the next race, which we'll be evaluating at the next test. So we're still pushing very hard and obviously the more you can push the better.
Q: Sam, McLaren's problems have been well documented this season. As it stands at the moment, how much of your resources are focused on the 2013 car compared with next year's 2014 project?
Sam MICHAEL: Well the 2014 car has been in development for a good nine or 12 months now. As with all teams, you're just balancing up how much resource you put on that versus this year. We're still developing this year's car; we still have parts coming for it. We'll definitely do that until the shutdown - which is only three weeks away. I think once we get back we'll see what the competitiveness is like around sort of Monza, Spa, Singapore and then make a call on how long we keep pushing on that. At the moment we're working on both cars. There's still of lot of things¦ although the actual components wouldn't directly carry over, the understanding of the flow mechanisms around the car is still valuable.
Q: So if results improve, it's worth persisting with this year's car. If they don't, by the time we get to Singapore, is that where you say 'no, we're going to switch the focus to 2014', a season Martin Whitmarsh, your team principal, has already said is a very important season.
Michael: Probably, you would¦ it's probably going to be based on those factors. You'll be looking at correlation, seeing if the parts you bring, over those two or three races post-shutdown work, and work strongly, and start giving you results you might continue. But it depends how much carries over. Probably the piece that carries over the least is the exhaust because it's so different to next year and not relevant. Most of the other parts, as I said, even if they're¦ of course they won't be the same bits of carbon but the actual academic studies that you're doing in the company are still valid.
Q: Finally, Paddy, your first Friday press conference as Mercedes' Executive Director Technical.
Paddy LOWE: Thank you very much.
Q: Good to see you here.
Lowe: It's good to be back.
Q: Lovely to see you in the paddock. How do you fit into the existing structure, into the technical director structure at Mercedes? What are your day-to-day responsibilities?
Lowe: Well, I've only just arrived, as you know. At the moment I'm just trying to find my feet and get to know the company. A lot of people to get to know - get to know how they work. I'll be supporting Ross and Toto and also the technical team - Bob, Aldo and Geoff. At the moment I'm looking all around, seeing how I can help.
Q: Have you cast a fresh pair of eyes over the 2013 car and identified areas where improvements can be made?
Lowe: Yeah. I'm looking at the very short term as well as into next year and how the organisation is structured as well. So, wherever I can help immediately, I am. But there's no particular focus.
Q: (Dan Knutson - Auto Action / National Speedsport News) To the four team guys, was there ever a point during the race at Silverstone when you considered withdrawing your cars - and reasons for leaving them in.
McCullough: From our side we monitored the data very closely during the race. We knew the operating limits we were working within, and how we were using the tyres. We speak quite closely with our Pirelli engineer and he was giving us some feedback as well. So, from our side, everything was good.
Q: Sam?
Michael: Yes, it was discussed on our pitwall. It was more a discussion focussed around what we thought the FIA may do or may not do, rather than us actually making a decision to pull McLaren cars out by themselves. It was more a discussion about what we should do in between that time. Just in case that happened.
Q: What was the discussion at Ferrari Pat?
Fry: I think in that type of situation it's always tricky and you've got to try to work out the best way to contain it. Silverstone is now the highest loaded circuit that we go to - it obviously used to be Indianapolis - and the type of failure, if you see it, was likely to be structural fatigue failure. So the first thing you do is look at where people were getting to. I think Lewis broke on lap nine or eight, we failed on lap 10, someone got to lap 14. So instantly we were thinking 'well, you've got to minimise stint length.' We were advised by Pirelli to increase the pressures, which we did, and you try as much as you can to contain that situation. So I think from around the first round of tyre failures, we were always going to three-stop because that was a less risky way. To try and two-stop from there you would be well past the mileage that the tyres were obviously failing at. We tried to contain it that way. And then obviously, after the second failures, there was another request to go up on the pressures again - and you can see our pace drop off as we increased the tyre pressures.
Q: But not a thought of pulling out?
Fry: I think we were thinking of how we could contain it and make it as safe as we could rather than pulling out. There was some conversation with the FIA on the intercom about the tyre pressures we were running behind the safety car but in the end we just have to manage it.
Q: And finally Paddy?
Lowe: Very similar to Pat's reply. We were keeping a close eye on what the FIA might do in terms of a decision but for our point of view it was more a matter of management. Whether through pressure or instructions to the driver about certain corners and kerbs and so on.
Q: (Kate Walker) We learnt last night that the GPDA members have considered withdrawing from this race. I was wondering what discussions you'd had from your drivers about potential withdrawals and how you felt about that?
Lowe: It's not something we go involved in, no.
Q: Pat?
Fry: I haven't discussed it with either of the drivers. We've obviously gone through the changes here, why we think things will be an improvement but we've left it at that.
Q: Sam?
Michael: No, it's not something we discussed with the drivers. They came back from the GPDA meeting and said that they'd made that decision. We respect that. Both of our drivers, and I'm sure the rest, are fully aware of the changes and investigations that Pirelli have done over the last four or five days. It has been a pretty monumental effort to get the tyres that they've got here. I fully appreciate that. Had a lot of conversations with Pirelli directly and we're happy with the direction and changes that they're making. Both of our drivers are fully aware of that and understand it. At the same time you can kind of understand their concern: they just don't want a repeat of the last race. So we respect them because of that.
Q: Tom?
McCullough: Similar really to what Sam was saying. We went through all the technical changes that have been done and the operating limits that have been recommended by Pirelli and the drivers were pretty confident that things would be OK.
Q: (Pierre Van Vliet) Question for Paul. I understand that on top of the young driver days in Silverstone, Pirelli is planning some more tests - a private test in Paul Ricard next week or Barcelona at the end of the month. Is that true - and which teams are going to be involved?
Hembrey: The young drivers' test, we're taking along some of the tyres that are going to¦ the structure of the tyre that will be used going forward this season. Five sets. The Paul Ricard and Barcelona tests are with the 2010 Renault and it's our own testing that's looking forward for a few things for next season. Obviously it's a little bit slow now compared to the way the cars are moving.
Q: (Dieter Rencken - The Citizen) Paul, your press release on Tuesday stated that there was no safety issue if the tyres were used as intended. You also clarified that turning them around... the effect of that, the lower pressures - all that's been corrected. As a result of that, on what basis have the specifications actually been changed on the grounds of safety, because that's the only way the rule change could be pushed through? Could you clarify that, please?
Hembrey: Well, you've seen at Silverstone a very dramatic increase in performance, compared to previous years and for some teams, they described it as a three fold increase in loading on the tyres, so going forward, you learn from those situations, obviously, and you want to give a greater margin, so it's purely that.
Q: So it's a precautionary tactic, as it were, a precautionary measure that you need to take.
Hembrey: Well, yeah. The rate of development in Formula One is vast. You've also got a moving target. You don't need two signals like that, do you?
Q: (Walter Koster - Saabrucker Zeitung) Mr Hembery, after all these tyre dramas at the beginning of the season, are you still able to sleep well, or do you have nightmares? And do you fear that Mr Jean Todt could perhaps have the intention to bring his French friends back into Formula One with Michelin?
Hembrey: Well, I don't have nightmares fortunately. We do work a lot. I think everyone in Formula One, these people here, will tell you that no matter what job you have in Formula One it's very intensive so that's not an issue. I have to say that Jean Todt and the FIA were extremely supportive. Actually we were talking, before Sunday, about a number of issues going forward and I could only say that we thank the FIA for their great support, including Charlie Whiting as well, over the last week. I think that all I can say is what I see and that's a very co-operative and very supportive FIA.
Q: (Oana Popoiu) Sam, Jenson said yesterday that it's the development of this car that will help you next year. If McLaren don't manage to fix this car, how will that negatively affect next year's car?
Michael: I think it goes back to the intro question that David asked. All the work we do on this year's car and any investigative work, whether it gets good correlation or not, is still valid for the 2014 car because you're trying different things to understand... you can clearly measure where you have deficiencies and when you try and do changes for the track, whether you measure them here during Friday testing that we do or any future Grand Prix Fridays. When you get those components and then you feed that information back to the design office and wind tunnel, that loop that you close generates information, whether the test was positive or negative, so that's how it will feed into next year.
Q: (Dan Knutson - Auto Action / National Speedsport News) Pat and maybe Paul, the minimum tyre pressures have gone up, I believe, when leaving the pits by only one pound. How can one pound make that much difference? When we look at a road car it doesn't make much difference at all.
Fry: In terms of car balance, we obviously do play around with pressures, change of balance from qualifying to the race. It's a standard tool that everyone uses. And also the higher pressures... you can worsen your long run by increasing your rear pressures. It's a tool; as long as everyone is working to the same limits it's fine. There is a tendency, if you've got an oversteering car, to try and run the pressures as low as you can at the rear or higher at the front. That's just a normal way you chase a car balance.
Q: (Dan Knutson - Auto Action / National Speedsport News) From a safety point of view, why is it much better to have...?
Fry: Well, I think maybe that's a question for Paul.
Hembrey: Well, you've got to have a starting point and it's what happens as well as the pressures grow which is also important. Another thing we were conscious of as well after Silverstone is the safety car period which was extended. Normally that's not a great issue because you don't drop too low but when you're at a circuit like Silverstone, if you restart and you've dropped down below almost the starting pressures, then that can create other issues, so that's something else that we're studying at the moment. Road cars, well I don't think people check their pressures too much on road cars, sadly, which is why the European Union I believe have introduced new digital measurements on new cars going forward for pressures. It's still very important; whichever car you're driving, you need to check your pressures.
Q: (Dieter Rencken - The Citizen) Primarily for Pat and Paddy; the 2012 spec tyres have got a different shape to the 2013 tyres. That shape is being introduced from Hungary. What aerodynamic effect do you believe this will have on your cars?
Fry: Obviously the shape of the tyre is critical to the aerodynamics around the front wing and around the diffuser. We just need to re-optimise in those two areas. Obviously we have the wind tunnel tyres for both so we need to get in and start comparing and seeing what adjustments are needed. It's impossible to say if it's going to benefit one car more than another. I don't know. I guess we'll find out in Hungary.
Lowe: Yeah, there are differences but we're aware of those differences because it's a tyre, obviously, that we used and developed around last year, so we can look at that when that's been finally confirmed and optimise the car around that.
Q: Could it be a benefit to either McLaren or Sauber?
Michael: I don't think so but I don't know to be honest. I don't think anyone really knows. Probably the best comparison is that we've all done that test in Brazil, Friday, last year when we compared 2012 casing to 2013 and the changes were not significant so that's the only piece of data we've got. As Pat said, we've also got all the wind tunnel tyres and things like that. The main thing is that the changes are being done for safety so it's second order what effect it has on the performance.
McCullough: Nothing really much more to add. As Sam was saying, safety's really the most important thing, whether it increases or reduces the performance of our car we shall see once we get out on the track.
Q: (Ian Parkes - Press Association) Paul, there are no guarantees in anything but what degree of certainty can you say that the tyres you have here and the tyres that you will have from Hungary onwards are safe?
Hembrey: Well, we wouldn't be racing if we didn't feel they were safe. You go into every race with the best information that you have and you wouldn't come to any race if you had any doubts.
Q: (Kate Walker) We've heard this week that the possibility of a late season tyre test after Interlagos for 2014 has been mooted. How do you feel about that, will that be beneficial, given all of the spec changes we've got between the next year?
McCullough: I understood that test was now not even going to happen. Potentially we will testing some tyres during the free practice session at Brazil but maybe Paul knows more about that.
Hembrey: Practice isn't viable because it's so limited in running. You can maybe run one spec. The intention was to run a far more detailed, proper tyre test programme. We need to have a re-think on that one and find another way. Brazil would be ideal because it would be a good circuit for us to run some testing, because of the nature of the circuit, end of season as well, we'll be getting closer to what we want to be using for next season.
Q: Sam, would that be what you would be looking for as well, a tyre test in Brazil?
Michael: One thing I do agree with with Paul is that Brazil is a good track for outing problems on the opposite side, obviously, to what we had at Silverstone. So McLaren will support whatever Pirelli wants to do. I do believe you can do quite a lot on Fridays as well but obviously not as much as if you concentrate fully on a one or two day test afterwards.
Lowe: For us the most important thing is safety and the integrity of the tyre so we're working as closely as we can with Pirelli and their engineers and the FIA to help guide the process to deliver that result. Whether that needs a test at a particular place is another matter to be determined but I think the important thing at the moment is for the engineers to work behind the scenes and make sure that the right analysis is done to feed the process.
Q: Beneficial to Ferrari to have the test?
Fry: Well, I think the test was discussed yesterday in the SWG and I thought that the conclusion was not Brazil but they were going to try and find another solution. That's as much as I know.
Q: So Paul, if it's not Brazil and it's not FP1 in Brazil, is there time for another solution?
Hembrey: We need to have another chat, a more serious chat. We need to find, in more detail, what we need to do. For us, tyre testing is 14/18 specifications, 600 kilometers a day. You obviously can't do that on a Friday. We need to find a way of running this season with something more representative than the 2010 car. Equally, going forward, what happens when the new cars are actually going out? There's certainly a need to go wet testing in our opinion, we believe. Probably the teams might be interested in doing that as well seeing that half the year we seem to be racing in the rain. The new power plants, we understand, will have a dramatic impact next year and certainly wet conditions is something that we need to think about running an all team test before we actually get to Malaysia.
Q: (Oana Popoiu) Pat, how many times during a weekend do you change the strategy? And how much of that relies on your car's performance and how much on your competitors?
Fry: Well, you go in with a rough plan of where you are. There's been quite a few races this year which have been on the borderline of either three to four or two to three (pit stops). I think you have a plan but then it's a case of looking at everyone's relatively pace, tyre degradation, how our tyres are doing. It's constantly being updated really. It's all done live and in simulation-land.
Q: Do you prefer it that way. Is it a bit more exciting where you're having to change plans every few laps?
Fry: I think it is down to knowing exactly what the tyres are doing and how you are relative to your competitors. You will be a very clever person if you manage to sort that all out in your first simulation, to be honest.
Q: (Ian Parkes - Press Association) Paul, you've touched on the difficulties of testing going into next season; how deep is the concern inside Pirelli that you won't have enough testing going into 2014 and will encounter problems like we've seen this year?
Hembrey: Well, the good thing is that we're now talking in a lot more detail and that will carry on over the next few weeks. We feel that there is a need to do some level of testing with representative cars. You can imagine that there could be some surprises again next season and maybe there will need to be some check on balance done then as well. But at the moment, there isn't a clear indication of what we should do and we hope and judging by the discussions we've had there is a willingness to look at solutions that work for everybody, for the sport and for Pirelli.

This one is for you Melissa…
Yesterday's pictures were sent by her, an 8th cousin of mine just like Emeril Lagasse.
That really made my day! Not Emeril, Melissa.
She is related somehow to Leon Lagasse a 7th cousin of mine. I know Melissa is a sweet person.
Melissa has no idea who these people on the tintypes pictures were.
I posted them anyway because you never know.
It's like opening two boxes of chocolates and not knowing what you will find inside each one.
Like this man who has just found some of his roots.
It's always pure pleasure when someone writes me about this blog.
He wrote yesterday morning. He had read my articles about Jerry. Carl is a direct descendant of Jerry Robetoye (Jerry Robitaille).
This is the comment he posted.
I am Carl Robitaille, Sr
This is all very interesting. I am almost certain that this refers to my family. My father was Edouard (Edward) Luis Robitaille, born in 1921 in New Bedford, Ma. He was the son of Marie Blanche Robitaille. He had a sister Delores (both deceased).
My father never spoke about his father and was raised by his mother, as far as I know, nearly from birth.
I am not sure of whom the Carl you refer to is.
Would he be from Texas?
I may have other information available, but I currently live in Arizona. Most of the surviving relatives live in New England.
Carl Robitaille, Sr
I know that what he will find out about his roots will make his day just like it did for Dennis Lagasse IV around Christmas time.
I know sharing what I find about Our Ancestors makes my day everyday!
It's like a box of chocolates or two. It's better when you share it with loved ones.
Happy Valentine.
Dolly Robitaille and Edward Louis Robitaille…

The United Chiropractic Association Welcomes You!
Chiropractic is a major contributor to natural health in the UK. And for many good reasons:
Chiropractors provide conservative care without the use of drugs and surgery. Our approach is to remove nervous system disruptions (usually along the spine) that can restore your ability to self-heal.

WebSphere MQ Channels - Are We Really Just the Messenger?
MarkWomack 270000PC6X Comments (2) Visits (21390)
The answer to that question is "well, yes pretty much". If a WebSphere MQ channel fails and you're betting on root cause you can likely win that bet if you know that most channels fail because of an underlying problem either within the network, or the general network configuration. While IBM Support is always ready to provide ancillary support on such problems, often the most time is saved if network personnel are involved immediately and can get started on review of network type traces. The tools of the trade include z/OS packet... [More]

From The Editor
By Carol Berkin
When delegates from twelve states gathered in Philadelphia in the summer of 1787, many of them feared that the quarrels between the states, the sudden rash of internal rebellions, the continuing presence of enemies on our national borders, the embarrassing debts owed to foreign nations and to our own citizens, and the vulnerability of our merchant marine on the oceans all spelled doom for the young republic. The new frame of government that these political leaders produced was thus born in crisis— but it proved capable of surviving that crisis and many others to come in the nation's future.
In this issue of History Now, our scholars and teachers explore the philosophical and political traditions and innovations that defined the Constitution and those that prompted opposition to it by the Antifederalists. They look at the social context in which the constitution was created—and discuss the groups that the delegates failed to grant the same equality and freedom that they cherished for themselves. The result is a rich, in-depth examination of the Constitution— its strengths and its flaws. These essays remind us and our students that the endurance of the Constitution is a tribute to the framers' willingness to see it change as American society itself changed, to adjust to the needs of future generations that these men, wise though they were, could not foresee.
Constitutional scholar Linda R. Monk's "Why We the People? Citizens as Agents of Constitutional Change" introduces us to one of the most radical ideas embodied in the Constitution: that ultimate sovereignty lies with the citizens themselves. It was this principle, Monk reminds us, that prompted the demand, during the ratification debates, that a bill of rights be added to the Constitution. She shows us that later generations of propertyless men, white women, African Americans, and Indians would rely on the promise of these rights as they fought for inclusion into the ranks of "we the people." In his essay "James Madison and the Constitution," Professor Jack Rakove probes the mind of James Madison -- the delegate known as the "architect of the Constitution," explores the weaknesses of the Articles government, and develops arguments for a stronger union in a memorandum entitled Vices of the Political System of the United States. Madison's brilliant analysis of the problems facing the new republic formed the basis for the plan he would bring to the constitutional convention in 1787. In "The Antifederalists: The Other Founders of the American Constitutional Tradition?" Professor Saul Cornell helps us understand that the dissenting voices of the Antifederalists are a critical part of our political heritage. The issues these men raised—in the ratifying conventions and in the press—were serious ones: the omission of a bill of rights, the centralizing tendencies of the new government, and what they feared was its aristocratic character. These concerns brought together rich men and poor, northerners and southerners, farmers and planters and artisans. The glue that bound them together was a desire to protect individual rights and local interests. In "Ordinary Americans and the Constitution," Professor Gary Nash explores the views of African Americans, artisans, and small farmers—groups who opposed the Constitution because it denied them rights or ignored their interests. As Nash shows us, these groups would continue to stand as critics of the Constitution throughout the nineteenth century and into the twentieth century as long as it failed to recognize their equality. Professor James O. Horton continues this theme in his essay "Race and The American Constitution: A Struggle Toward National Ideals." Horton traces the long and difficult struggle by African Americans, free and enslaved, to gain recognition as full citizens of the United States. Their struggle tested the ideals of the founding generation—and exposed the racial assumptions and prejudices not only of the framers but of later generations of Americans. Finally, Theodore Crackel, editor of the George Washington Papers, gives us a thoughtful look at one of our most cherished heroes, the Commander in Chief of the Continental Army, the presiding officer at the constitutional convention, and the first president of the United States. Crackel shows us how Washington's experiences as Commander in Chief gave him a nationalist rather than a provincial perspective. He also shows us how important Washington's support for the new constitution proved to be. And, perhaps most importantly, he shows us the judiciousness and care with which the first president administered his office, always recognizing that his actions would set a precedent for executives to come.
As Constitution Day projects and lessons begin across the country, these essays should prove an excellent starting point for students and teachers alike. In addition, our archivist Mary-Jo Kline provides a wealth of source materials for further study and our master teachers provide lesson plans for classrooms at high school, middle and elementary school levels, and our interactive feature for this issue is a quiz on Constitutional trivia.
We are also proud to present a new feature in this issue of History Now: four book reviews by two classroom teachers, focusing on two scholarly books for your own background reading and two books that our reviewers feel might be useful in the classroom itself.
As always, we welcome your comments and suggestions—and hope you will share your ideas for lessons or projects with your peers across the country through the pages of History Now.

Chico >> Jan Poythress is breathing a sigh of relief this week after learning Friday the county would not be putting her home up for auction next month.
Poythress, a 59-year-old disabled woman, was facing auction of her longtime home because the county states she owes nearly $20,000 in delinquent property taxes dating to when the property became entangled in a predatory lending scheme five years ago. Poythress" name was not on the title of the home for a few years and she did not receive proper notice of the impending auction if she failed to make payments.
Officials with the Butte County Treasurer-Tax Collector"s Office said Thursday the office has decided to withdraw Poythress" home from this year"s auction list.
"We decided to recommend postponement of sale of this property because of the highly unusual predatory lending issue and tax bill and noticing issue it created," said Assistant Treasurer-Tax Collector Susan Peterson. "We are certainly empathetic and sympathize with taxpayer situations leading up to any property being sold at an auction but this one is a circumstance that we believe merits postponing the sale."
Poythress still must resolve the delinquent taxes, but the county is willing to offer her a repayment plan.
"If I don"t have to do the bankruptcy, if they will work with me and do a payment plan, I"m great with that," she said. "At least I can smile now."
Poythress has lived for nearly 30 years in her Borman Way home, which her parents deeded to her after their death. About three weeks ago, she received notice in the mail saying that to prevent her home from being auctioned, she would have to pay $18,044.23 before 5 p.m. June 13.
Poythress lives off less than $1,000 a month in Social Security and has no savings as she continues to recover from the predatory lending scheme, but said she would be more than happy to make tax payments in good faith. When that didn"t sound possible, she turned to an attorney who had helped her through her predatory lending case, and was told filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be the best option to protect her home.
The county is mandated by state law to collect delinquent taxes. When an owner falls behind, the county can offer a payment plan so people can dig themselves out of that hole but after five years of delinquency the only option left is to auction the property.
Poythress" home was one of 214 proprieties on the biennial list, totalling $5.6 million in delinquent taxes.
Poythress" fight for her home began in 2009.
After letting a salesman and his girlfriend move in with her, she said the duo convinced her to buy expensive items on her credit card and damaged her house before leaving town. Faced with $110,000 in debts, Poythress gave in to a persistent phone salesman who convinced her to take out a loan she could not repay.
When she didn"t make the payments, several companies took legal action against her. Instant Mortgage Lending of San Diego foreclosed on the home, took possession of it, and tried to evict Poythress.
With help from two pro bono private attorneys, lawyers from Legal Services of Northern California blocked the eviction, suing Instant Mortgage with fraud and predatory lending charges.
Two and a half years after the eviction notice, Instant Mortgage agreed to rescind the foreclosure and return the house to Poythress. Because Poythress had declared bankruptcy, and the value of her home had decreased substantially, she wouldn"t have to pay most outstanding debts.
But outstanding property taxes always follow the property. The taxes for 2009-12 have been readjusted to what they would have been under the Homeowner"s Property Tax Exemption instead of the higher value they were assessed at during the foreclosure, "as if the predatory lending never happened," Peterson said.
Poythress has not given in entirely to the sense of relief, saying she wants to wait until a solution to the delinquent taxes is decided upon. With bankruptcy, she"d have a longer time period to pay off the debt but she"d prefer not to take that route again.
"Until it"s totally over with, you always will have a little doubt," Poythress said. "But I"m telling other people when you know you are right, fight. Don"t just hand things over."

Superman to The Fonz: Vintage lunchbox collection on sale
CINCINNATI (AP) - It's a baby boomer delight.
A veteran auctioneer has on display hundreds of vintage lunchboxes featuring the heroes of their childhood's comic books, TV shows, cartoon strips, movies and more. J. Louis Karp's family business in Cincinnati dates to 1870, and he says he's never seen such a collection.
A Dallas-based Heritage Auctions collectibles expert agrees. He says the auction giant has had sizable lunchbox collections, but it's rare to see such a large, eclectic collection together.
It includes comic-book superheroes such as Superman and The Avengers, and stars of TV series, movies and cartoon strips. There's "The Brady Bunch" and "The Partridge Family." ''Popeye" and "The Flintstones." And many more-obscure ones.
Bids start at $20.
The auction ends Sept. 30.

Being a celebrity, means that you are always in the public eye. Whether they are walking the red carpet, strolling to their favorite coffee shop, or arriving at their new movie premier, chances are their image will show up in a photo. Some of the photos taken will be flattering and some, not so much.
The first musical celebrity that I have to review is Justin Beber. Lately, the only photos that we have seen of him have been mug shots, but this one of him at an AIDS benefit shows a classy young man in his double breasted dark suit with wide lapels and contrasting, stark white button-down shirt. The pushed up sleeves of Justin's suit jacket and the rolled up cuffs of the dress shirt keep his look hip and allow him to show off the ink on his forearms.
On the opposite end of classy spectrum, unfortunately, is Welsh Actor/Singer Luke Evans. I am usually a fan of plaid suits, but this Fendi blue/grey abstract plaid suit that Luke wore to the One for the Boys Charity Ball in London is not a favorite. The abstract, scratchy design plaid makes him look like he is hiding multiple "spare tires" around his waist. It would look a little less overwhelming if Luke took the trousers and paired it with a solid grey/taupe colored jacket, while keeping the shirt and tie as is.
One woman who finds it hard to escape the photographers is actress Gwyneth Paltro, who was seen out and about the streets of NYC. Unfortunately, she is hiding her good looks in this outfit with a baggy navy, polka dot blouse and a pair of wide-leg, black ankle pants. The blouse has no definition and the pants make her legs look short. I do like Gwyneth's black leather jacket with the cascading front and her matching ankle boots.
Last, but not least, is English TV Personality/Model Lauren Pope. She is pictured here strolling the streets of Marbella, Spain. Lauren looks stunning in her black bloussant top with leaf print, high-waisted shorts. The outfit is accented perfectly by her strappy black leather sandals, beige suit jacket, and black leather clutch.

In the history of brewing in Britain, the Graveney Boat is an archaeological anomaly almost as great as finding the skeleton of an Anglo-Saxon warrior with a hole in his skull that could only have been made by a 17th-century musket ball.
The boat – actually a clinker-built cross-channel cargo vessel, reconstructed as some 44 feet (13.6 metres) long, 11 feet (3.4 metres) wide and just three feet (one metre) in draught – was abandoned more than a thousand years ago. It was discovered in 1970 under six feet of soil, during the widening of the Hammond Drain, a silted-up ancient natural water course linking Graveney village, a small settlement near the coast between Faversham and Whitstable in Kent, with the Thames estuary.
Dendrochronology suggests the Graveney Boat was about 55 years old when it was abandoned, since it was built from oak timbers cut in the mid-890s, and it had apparently been left to settle into the mud some time close to 950AD. When archaeologists analysed the boat and its immediate area, searching in particular for plant remains, they found evidence that pointed strongly towards it having carried a cargo of hops.
Yet at the time the boat was stuck up a Kentish creek, (at a period when there was still a separate Viking King of Northumbria, contending with the King of England), English brewers were not using hops to flavour their ale – or at least, there is no good evidence at all that they were doing so. Hops stay unmentioned in the history of English brewing (apart from one brief and almost equally mysterious pop-up in the 12th century, to which we will return) until the 1500s, almost 400 years later, when immigrant brewers from the Low Countries started making the upstart Continental hopped drink bere, a rival to unhopped traditional English ale. So why were there hops on board the Graveney cargo boat?

Almost there
Can you believe it? March is almost done! You'll see in the video and photos below that despite odd cold spells, the second half of the month has had many sunny blue sky days too. Activity in the garden (by plants and visitors) has gone up a notch or too with the warm sunshine.
Today, we've seen the start of the rain forecasted. If it lasts a few days as suggested then our plants will put on wonderful flourishes of new foliage and growth. Being honest, I find myself smiling more at the new growth with the anticipation of what's to come. I'd guess I'm not alone there.
For those new to my blog, I don't usually cover the month in the way I have this month, with March. It's just the way it's worked out this time. I've not been as busy in the garden as I would have liked too but with longer hours of daylight my gardening year is about to really kick off.
Yesterday morning, I saw the first signs of nest building from my garden as a female Blackbird went away with material from the base of my Brunnera Jack Frost plant. I noticed one take it from there last year too. Let's have a quick reminder of mid-end March to look back on….
Note there is light background music with this video.
For those not able to watch the video
it began with the female blackbird and her beakful of material. Then we've a pair of blue tits visiting our new nestbox (although they didn't go in), a Collared Dove sunning itself on a windy branch (a pair are regularly visiting just now), a Song thrush taking a break in the open on top of my Leylandii hedge and then we end with crocus sunshine faces (growing in my lawn) waving in the breeze.
Let's move on to what else has caught my eye in the last two weeks. The crocus, I just had to include as their time is almost over :-(
I love to photograph the crocus and we have really enjoyed the colour they have brought to the garden. Being a gardener that always has plants on the move my decision to plant them in informal drifts in my lawn was one of my better ideas!
Blue tits food at the buds, they are regularly visiting them.
Many are fully out now but I love this stage.
that flowered out of season last August. Early this time.
Re instated Ceramic Bumble Bee Nester. Bees seen scouting area.
just over front garden boundary. Neighbour's border.
whilst cutting back Stipa gigantea. Just discovered that's
the collective name for ladybirds... brilliant name :-)
Summer flowering Carex morrowii 'Fisher's Form'
is flowering in March. Anyone else seen that?
no sightings of hogs this year. Food out, watching night cam.
Thrilled to have the cuckoo flower in my lawn… so excited!
Soon cuckoo flower will open then Fritillaries. Love this area.
Hellebores in various stages of flower opening.
So why the 'Oops' with the Brunnera? If you look closely above you'll see (after being lifted last autumn) it still hasn't been divided and planted. Out of the ground this past cold winter… this plant definitely deserves its AGM (Award of Garden Merit) by the RHS! Respect to you, Jack Frost. I'll get you planted later tonight :-)
Respect also has to go to the oldest known UK breeding female Osprey who has just returned to her nest in Scotland for the 21st consecutive year. However, the SWT Reserve near Dunkeld in Perthshire looks like it is set for interesting speculation already. Two other Ospreys have also arrived. If one's a female… the story begins.
Wishing everyone following the story of the 'Lady' at Loch of the Lowes much to see this coming breeding season. Here's hoping she holds on to her nest for one more year and has a successful brood :-)
Wishing everyone else enjoyment in your gardens and getting outdoors when you can. This really is a great time of year. What have your March favourite bits been? What are you enjoying in your garden right now?

Original Trinity Hymnal, #241
Day of judgment! day of wonders!
Hark! the trumpet's awful sound,
Louder than a thousand thunders,
Shakes the vast creation round.
How the summons
Will the sinner's heart confound!
See the Judge, our nature wearing,
Clothed in majesty divine;
You who long for his appearing
Then shall say, This God is mine!
Gracious Saviour,
Own me in that day as thine.
At his call the dead awaken,
Rise to life from earth and sea;
All the pow'r of nature, shaken
By his looks, prepare to flee.
Careless sinner,
What will then become of thee?
But to those who have confessed,
Loved and served the Lord below,
He will say, Come near, ye blessed,
See the kingdom I bestow;
You for ever
Shall my love and glory know.
