Ellen G. White recounts that one of the most difficult aspects of her early ministry was to rebuke fanatics, including Israel Dammon. In the 1980s critics of Ellen White used the discovery of transcripts of Dammon's arrest and trial to suggest that Ellen White supported and even participated in this pandemonium. New historical sources challenge such assumptions and suggest instead that Ellen White's account should be considered reliable as she rebuked Dammon and other early fanatics.

Care & MaintenanceCaring for Brass
Knobs and feet are made of solid brass, which will develop a beautiful patina over time. If you prefer the brass to retain its "new" appearance, apply Trewax® Paste Wax or another variety of high-quality carnauba wax occasionally.
Caring for Stone
Wipe regularly with a clean microfiber cloth dampened with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. A pH-balanced stone cleaner may also be used. Do not use steel wool or other abrasives, which will scratch and dull the surface. Do not use window cleaners. Spills of wine, coffee, ketchup, oils and acidic substances such as vinegar and citrus fruits should be wiped clean immediately because they can discolor the surface. We recommend applying a stone sealer every year to help protect the finish.
Caring for Wood
Wipe up spills immediately. Dust often using a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Wipe occasionally with a soft cloth dampened with a solution of warm water and mild detergent, then dry immediately with a lint-free cloth.
Touch Up Marker A special marker is included to touch up nicks and scratches. Run the marker along the affected area, then buff with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to remove excess material.

Peptides will arrive as a lyophilized form. Lyophilized peptides generally have very good stability and the short-term temperature change during shipping should not affect the product quality and efficacy. However, we recommend storing the lyophilized peptides at –20 ° C upon arrival and at this temperature, most lyophilizates can be stable for years without significant degradation.
Peptides are often hydroscopic. The absorption of moisture may decrease the stability and reduce the overall product quality. To avoid this, the vial or tube should be always tightly sealed when moved to or from cold storage, peptides should be allowed to warm to room temperature before opening. We recommend that you only dissolve the needed amount into a buffer. The remainder of the stock should be stored dry at –20 ° C. Aliquots of the remaining peptide solution can be stored frozen for a short term, however, for maximal stability, we recommend re-lyophilizing the solution.
Peptide solubilization often presents a problem for the researchers. We recommend first attempting to determine the solubility by dissolving an aliquot into the buffer of choices by vortexing and sonication if necessary.
If solubility still remains a problem, following our guideline and determine the net charge of the compound may be of help. The charge of each residue of K, R, H, free N-terminal and any additional -NH2 is set at +1; each of D, E and free C-terminal is set at -1. For basic peptides (net charge >= 1), try to add a drop or more of glacial acetic acid (can be up to 20-30% in volume for problematic sequences) to facilitate the dissolution. For acidic peptides (net charge <= -1), 5% ammonia may be helpful for the solubilization.
For difficult hydrophobic peptide (containing high portion of A, V, M, I, Q where the net charge may or may not be 0), try to first dissolve it in an organic solvent such as DMSO and ethanol, etc. or an organic/aqueous co-solvent, then dilute the stock to the concentration and media of choices.
Note: The use of base and DMSO may promote problem for peptides containing cysteine residue with free thiol group.

History of Brooks
Originally, the area of Brooks was used as a buffalo hunting ground for the Blackfoot and Crow natives. After Treaty 7 was signed in 1887, homesteaders moved into the area to begin dry land farming. The arrival of the Canadian Pacific Railroad saw more settlers move to the area of Brooks. By 1904, Canada Post was interested in putting a post office in the settlement, however the area was still unnamed. By a Canada Post sponsored contest, the new area was named after Noel Edgell Brooks, a Canadian Pacific Railway Divisional Engineer from Calgary.
On July 14th, 1910, the Village of Brooks was formally established and became a Town a year later.
To encourage immigration and growth into the region in the early part of the century, the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) began the construction of major irrigation works. These works included the two mile long Brooks Aqueduct, constructed over 2½ years and completed in 1915. In 1935, the C.P.R. transferred control of these works to local farmers and the Eastern Irrigation District was formed. Irrigation has allowed Brooks to become a service centre for highly effective livestock, grain and vegetable producing industries.
In more recent years Brooks has experienced growth due to the oil and gas industry. The late 70's and early 1980's saw Brooks' population grow from 5,000 to around 8,000. The oil and gas industry, and those activities that provide services to oil and gas exploration are still a large driving force in the continued growth of Brooks. The Town's population in 1996 for the first time exceeded 10,000, due in large part to expansion at Lakeside IBP meat packing plant, making Brooks the largest Town in Alberta.
On September 1, 2005 , with an estimated population of 13,000, Brooks officially became the City of Brooks "Alberta's Centennial City™". The trademark was established at this time to commemorate the event and to celebrate Alberta's Centennial year.
In 2010, the City of Brooks celebrated their Centennial with a variety of events and activities. With a population of 13,581, the City of Brooks enters the next century with hope and excitement. A blend of western hospitality and international flare has created a one-of-a-kind community that is friendly and welcoming.

WASHINGTON — In 2004, one of John McCain's closest associates, John Weaver, spoke to John Kerry about the possibility of McCain running as Kerry's vice presidential running mate. In "No Excuses," Bob Shrum's memoir of his role in numerous presidential campaigns, including Kerry's, Shrum writes that Weaver assured Kerry that "McCain was serious about the possibility of teaming up with him," and Kerry approached McCain. He, however, was more serious about seeking the 2008 Republican nomination.
But was it unreasonable for Kerry to think McCain might be comfortable on a Democratic ticket? Not really.
In ABC's New Hampshire debate, McCain said: "Why shouldn't we be able to reimport drugs from Canada?" A conservative's answer is:
That amounts to importing Canada's price controls, a large step toward a system in which some medicines would be inexpensive but many others — new pain-relieving, life-extending pharmaceuticals — would be unavailable. Setting drug prices by government fiat rather than market forces results in huge reductions of funding for research and development of new drugs. McCain's evident aim is to reduce pharmaceutical companies' profits. But if all those profits were subtracted from the nation's health care bill, the pharmaceutical component of that bill would be reduced only from 10 percent to 8 percent — and innovation would stop, taking a terrible toll in unnecessary suffering and premature death. When McCain explains that trade-off to voters, he will actually have engaged in straight talk.
There are decent, intelligent people who believe that equity or efficiency or both are often served by government setting prices. In America, such people are called Democrats.
Because McCain is a "maverick" — the media encomium reserved for Republicans who reject important Republican principles — he would be a conciliatory president. He has indeed worked with Ted Kennedy on immigration reform, with Russ Feingold on restricting political speech (McCain-Feingold) and with Kennedy and John Edwards — a trial lawyer drawn to an enlargement of opportunities for litigation — on the "patients' bill of rights."
McCain is, however, an unlikely conciliator because he is quick to denigrate the motives, and hence the characters, of those who oppose him. He promiscuously accuses others of "corruption," the ubiquity of which he says justifies McCain-Feingold's expansive government regulation of the quantity, timing and content of campaign speech.
McCain says he would nominate Supreme Court justices similar to Antonin Scalia, Clarence Thomas, John Roberts and Sam Alito. But how likely is he to nominate jurists who resemble those four: They consider his signature achievement constitutionally dubious.
When the Supreme Court upheld McCain-Feingold 5-4, Scalia and Thomas were in the minority. That was before Alito replaced Sandra Day O'Connor, who was in the majority. Two years later, McCain filed his own brief supporting federal suppression of a right-to-life group's issue advertisement in Wisconsin because it mentioned a candidate for federal office during the McCain-Feingold blackout period prior to an election. The court ruled 5-4 against McCain's position, with Alito in the majority.
In the New Hampshire debate, McCain asserted that corruption is the reason drugs currently cannot be reimported from Canada. The reason is "the power of the pharmaceutical companies." When Mitt Romney interjected, "Don't turn the pharmaceutical companies into the big bad guys," McCain replied, "Well, they are."
There is a place in American politics for moralizers who think in such Manichaean simplicities. That place is in the Democratic Party, where people who talk like McCain are considered not mavericks but mainstream.
Republicans are supposed to eschew demagogic aspersions concerning complicated economic matters. But applause greets faux "straight talk" that brands as "bad" the industry responsible for the facts that polio is no longer a scourge, that childhood leukemia is no longer a death sentence, that depression and other mental illnesses are treatable diseases, that the rate of heart attacks and heart failures has been cut more than in half in 50 years.
When McCain and Joe Lieberman introduced legislation empowering Congress to comprehensively regulate U.S. industries' emissions of greenhouse gases in order to "prevent catastrophic global warming," they co-authored an op-ed column that radiated McCainian intolerance of disagreement. It said that a U.N. panel's report "puts the final nail in denial's coffin about the problem of global warming." Concerning the question of whether human activity is causing catastrophic warming, they said, "the debate has ended."
Interesting, is it not, that no one considers it necessary to insist that "the debate has ended" about whether the Earth is round. People only insist that a debate stop when they are afraid of what might be learned if it continues.

De Aza ready for World Baseball Classic
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Alejandro De Aza was contacted back in November about playing for the Dominican Republic in the 2013 World Baseball Classic.
"I just didn't have the information or anything," said De Aza, adding that he received the official call about three weeks ago.
De Aza joins outfielder Alex Rios (Puerto Rico), right-handed starter Andre Rienzo (Brazil) and right-handed reliever Jesse Crain (Canada) as players in camp who will take part in the Classic. Minor Leaguer Andy Gonzalez also will play for Puerto Rico.
"It was the greatest feeling," said De Aza of being asked to play for his country. "I will go there just to be a part of it. That's what I'm thinking. I'm just going to try to do the little things to get me ready and go play."
Rios and De Aza will be part of Pool C, at Hiram Bithorn Stadium in Puerto Rico. Rienzo plays in Pool A, in Japan, and Crain's Canadian team joins Team USA in Pool D, in Phoenix.

For Immediate Release
Thursday, Oct. 29, 2009
Contact: Patrick J. Wright
Senior Legal Analyst
MIDLAND - The Mackinac Center Legal Foundation late yesterday filed a document explaining why its lawsuit against the Michigan Department of Human Services and its director, Ishmael Ahmed, should proceed to the merits and not be stopped due to purported procedural issues. Legal Foundation Director Patrick Wright filed the brief with the Court of Appeals in the case of Loar v. DHS.
"Disappointingly, they simply chose to throw up a lot of procedural flak," said Wright. "They tried to argue that we needed to more carefully enumerate each element of our complaint; that in effect, the Court of Appeals does not have the ability to stop this illegal government action without first requiring costly and prolonged hearings in the lower courts; and that the Court of Appeals should drop the case because we should have also sued other people who aren't in the government."
Wright added: "They had a final objection that was particularly puzzling: The DHS argued the case should actually be tried by a government employee agency. But this is essentially assuming what the DHS is supposed to prove - that is, that my client is somehow a government employee belonging to a public-employee union, even though she is in fact a private businesswoman serving private clients. If DHS is right, why doesn't it just cite the law that shows my client to be a government worker? It wouldn't be hard if it were true."
Mackinac Center Communications Director Michael Jahr observed: "It has been six weeks since this case was filed, and DHS and its director still have not defended either in the courts or to the public the decision to shanghai home-based day care providers into government-employee unions and divert child care subsidies into so-called 'union dues.' If their actions were proper and lawful, why haven't they defended them?"
Wright expressed confidence that the DHS' procedural objections would not prevent the Court of Appeals from hearing the case. "The defendants' arguments, taken to their logical ends, would prevent the Court of Appeals from stopping even the most egregious government actions, and we expect the court will reject that."
The lawsuit was originally filed on behalf of two Petoskey home-based day care providers: Sherry Loar and Dawn Ives. Their claim is that the DHS should stop taking "union dues" from state subsidy checks that provide day care assistance to low-income families. Due to the tough economy, Ives had to close her day care and now works for Loar. Wright noted that the fact that this change in employment required Ives to dismiss her claim against the DHS highlights the capricious nature of the employment relationship at issue in this case.
"DHS in effect claims that to be an employee eligible to participate in an employees' union, you have to be an employer, like Sherry," said Wright. "If you're a home day care employee, like Dawn now is, you won't be considered an employee by the union. Does this make sense to anyone? This would be too ridiculous for even '1984' or 'Catch-22.'
"We think it's clear that our client and other private child care providers are not government employees," Wright added. "But if government officials think otherwise, they still need to obey the law and make these private workers into government employees through an act of the Legislature. An executive agency like the DHS can't simply write an agreement with a community college that sweeps my client into a union and then pretend it's got the force of law."
When this case was originally filed, the Mackinac Center Legal Foundation received a number of calls from other interested day care providers. Wright has filed a motion with the Court of Appeals to replace Ives with two of them: Paulette Silverson from Brighton and Michelle Berry from Flint. Their stories are captured in this brief video.
The Mackinac Center for Public Policy is a nonprofit research and educational institute that advances the principles of free markets and limited government. Through our research and education programs, we challenge government overreach and advocate for a free-market approach to public policy that frees people to realize their potential and dreams.

Oct. 3, 2012. KANSAS CITY, Kan. — The Lees-McRae College women's soccer team has cracked the NSCAA/Continental Tire NCAA Division II Women's Southeast Region rankings for the first time this season, entering the week tied for 10th, announce NSCAA officials Tuesday.
Lees-McRae (5-3-1, 4-1 CC) enters the week having won four of its opening five matches in Conference Carolinas play, including a pivotal 2-1 win at Belmont Abbey College on Sep. 26, as the Bobcats continue their quest to defend their league regular season and tournament titles from a season ago. The Bobcats are also ranked among the national leaders in several statistical categories, including 39th in scoring offense (2.33) and 43rd in goals against average (0.772).
Armstrong Atlantic State University (6-1-1) tops the region this week, followed by Columbus State University (9-1-0), Lenoir-Rhyne University (7-1-0), Tusculum College (8-1-1), and Lander University (6-1-2). North Georgia College & State University (8-2-0) is sixth, followed by Clayton State University (7-3-0), University of North Carolina-Pembroke (5-3-1), Flagler College (7-2-1), and Lees-McRae and Catawba College (6-4-0) in a tie for 10th.
Lees-McRae returns to the pitch on Thursday when the Bobcats travel to Due West, S.C. to continue their conference schedule against Erskine College at 5 p.m.

Intel is seeking a reboot in the tablet market with its upcoming Atom Z2760 chips code-named Clover Trail, and 20 tablets are in the works with the new chips, the company said on Tuesday.
"Our customers have 20 designs in their labs based on Clover Trail," said Hermann Eul, president of Intel Mobile Communications Group, during an interview at the Computex trade show in Taipei.
Many of the tablets currently in the labs are planned for release in conjunction with Microsoft's Windows 8, a touch-optimized OS due for release later this year. Asus at Computex announced the Asus Tablet 810 with an 11.6-inch screen, Intel's Clover Trail processor and the Windows 8 OS. Lenovo has already said it will release a ThinkPad tablet with Windows 8 running on Intel chips, and Dell has said it would release a Windows 8 tablet later this year.
Intel currently offers the Atom chip code-named Oak Trail for tablets, which is used by companies like Hewlett-Packard and Dell in Windows 7 tablets. But the new Clover Trail chip signals a new start for Intel in the tablet space.
"The real tablet market starts with Windows 8," Eul said. The Clover Trail tablets will be targeted at consumers and businesses, and offer long battery life.
Tablets with Clover Trail chips will be less than 9 millimeters thick, weigh less than 680 grams and provide more than nine hours of battery life, Intel has said. The features will also include 3G/4G LTE capabilities and advanced security and manageability features.
Intel's main competitor for Clover Trail will be ARM, whose processors go into most tablets and smartphones today. Clover Trail tablets will likely go head-to-head with tablets running Windows RT OS, which is an upcoming version of the OS for ARM processors. Asus has already announced the Tablet 600, which has quad-core ARM processor and Windows RT.
But Eul said that the x86 architecture has advantages over ARM. Microsoft has said that existing Windows applications will not work on Windows RT, and backward compatibility of x86 applications gives Clover Trail an edge over competing architectures. CIOs, for example, will be able to easily plug existing Clover Trail tablets with Windows 8 into existing IT infrastructures.
"That is incredible value. That should not be underestimated," Eul said.
Windows has virtually grown up on x86, and there is a long history of software and driver development behind the OS and the architecture, Eul said.
"Needless to say, our expectation is Windows will be running best on [x86] architecture," he added.
The consistency of architectures may also find value among consumers, Eul said. Consumers will be able to create and consume content, while running their existing Windows applications.

These science posts at Kotaku give me an opportunity to talk about something near and dear to my heart: The Robot menace. A Japanese couple being married by a robot? What if it misinterprets "til death do us part?"
The Japanese love their robots. They've been making them for ages, from toys on up to complicated machines that can speak, manipulate objects, and even serve as masturbatory fantasies for a whole new generation of creepy Japanese fanboys.
Yesterday a robot, specifically Kokoro's four foot tall I-Fairy, presided over the wedding of a Japanese couple in what was the first robot-conducted wedding in human history. The I-Fairy was controlled by a man behind the curtain as she guided 36-year-old Kokoru employee Satoko Inoue and 42-year-old robotics professor Tomohiro Shibata into their new life, using speech synthesis to speak the pre-programmed words that bound the two together.
Here's an adorable clip of the ceremony. Isn't the little robot cute?
Yes, she's so adorable. I'm sure that'll be the last thoughts that pass through the minds of thousands when she becomes an instrument of slaughter in the upcoming robot revolution.
You can call me paranoid, but I've watched countless documentaries on the subject of the robot revolution, from Will Smith's I, Robot to The Matrix. The machines want us dead, and we're finding ways to help them achieve that goal.
Take I-Fairy here, for instance. She was given the power to bind two people together in matrimony. Shouldn't she then have the power to sever that bond? Oh, what's this? An industrial laser? That would certainly help her sever those bonds, permanently, blinking her cute little eyes on and off while using software to amplify the couple's screams for mercy.
See? That's exactly what's going through I-Fairy's head right now.
What makes this worse is the fact that I-Fairy is being forced to participate in an event celebrating human love, something she can never truly experience, mainly due to the robot killing spree cut from the 1981 documentary, Heartbeeps.
It's only a matter of time. One minute the robots are watching us march down the aisle, the next they'll be marching down our streets, bringing humanity together in a way we never suspected they would: as part of a giant, melted puddle.
Congratulations to the happy new couple! I hope it was worth it.

Peter's House by Craig Steely Architecture
Located above San Francisco's Dolores Park on a steep site bordering a public garden, the decidedly small house, builds on this steep lot as efficiently as possible.
Description by Craig Steely Architecture
Rather than the typical construction practice of locating foundations staggered up the hillside, Peter's house locates a 24 ft. x 24 ft. cast-in-place concrete garage at the lowest level and builds a 3-story glass tower above it, altering the land and native hillside drainage very little. The top living floor then spans from a flat plateau at top of the lot to the tower like a bridge, essentially reducing the amount of excavation typically involved in construction of this type by 2/3.
Beyond the structural challenges, the biggest issue in designing Peter's house was opening the building to the expansive view while maintaining a level of privacy from the sidewalk and garden that pass alongside. Around the time the house was being designed, the new on-ramp to the Golden Gate Bridge was under construction which necessitated clearing a grove of Monterey Cypress trees in it's path from the Presidio. We secured some of these trees and working with a local milling shop turned them into 90 solid wood louvers (fixed on the exterior/operable on the interior) that regulate openness and privacy.

LONDON (REUTERS) - Prince William and his wife Kate gave the world its first glimpse of their new baby on Tuesday when they left hospital to a barrage of camera flashes with the boy who is third in line to the British throne.
Cheered by well-wishers, the couple waved and took turns to hold their son, wrapped tightly in a white blanket with only the top of his head and his hands visible.
"We are still working on a name, so we will have that as soon as we can," Prince William told reporters, adding that he could not be happier.
"He's got her looks, thankfully," he added, glancing at his wife.
Kate, wearing a pale blue dress with white polka dots, brushed aside the compliment, saying "No, no, I'm not sure about that."
"It's such a special time," she added as onlookers hung out of the windows of surrounding buildings for a better view. "Any parent will probably know what this feeling is like."
The couple followed tradition by giving the public the first sight of the baby on the steps of the hospital as they left - just as William's father Prince Charles and late mother, Princess Diana, did with him.
A relaxed William laughed as he confirmed he had already changed his first nappy (diaper) and joked that he would remind his son "of his tardiness when he is a bit older", because the infant had kept them, and the public, waiting longer than expected.
"He's got a good pair of lungs on him, that's for sure. He's a big boy, he's quite heavy," Prince William added.
Kate, 31, gave birth to the couple's first child on Monday afternoon, ending weeks of feverish anticipation about the arrival, and all three spent the night in the hospital - St Mary's in west London.
Their baby cried and wiggled his fingers as William carried him in a car seat to a Range Rover before driving his family to nearby Kensington Palace, his childhood home.
Kate's parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, were the first visitors to see the couple and their new child. Asked if she would reveal the name or had made any suggestions, Kate's mother said: "Absolutely not." Apart from the media, the event attracted hundreds of well-wishers from the public.
"We're here to witness history, where a future monarch has been born," said Ms Maria Scott, a housewife who had camped outside the hospital since Saturday.
The baby is third in line to the throne after grandfather Charles and William, 31, and pushes the fun-loving Prince Harry, William's brother, into fourth place.
"I'm thrilled," Prince Charles said. His second wife, Camilla, spoke of a "wonderfully uplifting moment for the country", saying Prince Charles would make a "brilliant" grandfather.
Congratulations flooded in from around the world after the birth, which was followed moment-by-moment by global media.
It fuels a new wave of popularity for the House of Windsor inspired by the younger royals, William and Harry.
Support for the royal family dipped after their mother Diana's death in a car crash in Paris in 1997, a year after her divorce from Charles, as the family's handling of the aftermath prompted accusations that they were out of touch.
But last year's celebrations of Queen Elizabeth's 60th year on the throne showed support for the monarchy at a record high.
Hordes of TV crews, photographers and royal fans wrapped in British flags camped outside the hospital for the first glimpse of the baby, to be called the Prince of Cambridge.
To mark the birth, the Royal Artillery fired a 41-gun salute at London's Green Park and 62 rounds were fired at the Tower of London. The bells of Westminster Abbey, where the couple married in April 2011, rang for three hours.
Prince William and Kate, who met when they were students at university in Scotland a decade ago, are officially known as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
The couple, who have been living in a cottage in Wales where Prince William is based as a Royal Air Force helicopter pilot, will eventually live with their baby at Apartment 1A in Kensington Palace.
Royal experts said the baby would now be taken out of the public glare.
"Having a baby is a very private moment, and they are a private couple, so the next time we see the baby will be the official photo, and that could be weeks," said Joe Little, managing editor of Majesty magazine.

I find myself often taking quick notes. E.g. jotting down what files I have edited etc, or a quick reminder.
For this I just have a gedit window open to which I alt + tab, and then apply "always on top" to when I wish to take notes, and reverse to process when I am done.
But I am looking for something much more convenient, What I am hoping exists is a Guake-like text editor, that I can just hit a key and it drops down from the top of the screen, hit the key again and it pops back up.
Does said item exist anywhere?

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The City of Nashville estimates more than a half million fans attended NFL Draft festivities over the last three days. As you might imagine, that smashes any previous draft attendance records.
The third and final day of an NFL draft was memorable for the scene, the music and the passion of the folks in Music City. It began Saturday with Arizona selecting Iowa State wide receiver Hakeem Butler.
Butler is 6-foot-6 and could be a presence in the red zone for new Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray, the top overall choice on Thursday night. The Cardinals also selected Massachusetts WR Andy Isabella in the second round.
Butler is the cousin of twins Aaron and Andrew Harrison, who starred in basketball at Kentucky.
North Carolina State quarterback Ryan Finley then went to Cincinnati, where he could learn from Andy Dalton.
Approximately 200,000 people attended the draft on each of the first two nights, packing Broadway to hear the picks, listen to the tunes in the honky tonks — and by Tim McGraw in a rousing concert Friday night — and make this "selection meeting" unlike anything the NFL has seen.

Calvin Coolidge
John Calvin Coolidge, Jr. (July 4, 1872 – January 5, 1933) was the twenty-ninth (1921 – 1923) Vice President and the thirtieth (1923 – 1929) President of the United States, succeeding to that office upon the death of Warren Harding.
|30th President
|Term of Office:
|August 3, 1923 – March 4, 1929
|Warren G. Harding
|Succeeded by:
|Herbert Hoover
|Date of Birth
|Thursday, July 4, 1872
|Place of Birth:
|Plymouth, Vermont
|Date of Death:
|Tuesday, January 5, 1933
|Place of Death:
|Northampton, Massachusetts
|First Lady :
|Grace Anna Goodhue
|Political Party :
|Vice President :
|Charles G. Dawes
Coolidge was "distinguished for character more than for heroic achievement," wrote a Democratic admirer, Alfred E. Smith. "His great task was to restore the dignity and prestige of the Presidency when it had reached the lowest ebb in our history … in a time of extravagance and waste…."
Born in Plymouth, Vermont, on July 4, 1872, Coolidge was the son of a village storekeeper. He was graduated from Amherst College with honors, and entered law and politics in Northampton, Massachusetts. Slowly, methodically, he went up the political ladder from councilman in Northampton to Governor of Massachusetts, as a Republican. En route he became thoroughly conservative.
At 2:30 on the morning of August 3, 1923, while visiting in Vermont, Calvin Coolidge received word that he was President. By the light of a kerosene lamp, his father, who was a notary public, administered the oath of office as Coolidge placed his hand on the family Bible.
As President, Coolidge demonstrated his determination to preserve the old moral and economic precepts amid the material prosperity which many Americans were enjoying. He refused to use Federal economic power to check the growing boom or to ameliorate the depressed condition of agriculture and certain industries. His first message to Congress in December 1923 called for isolation in foreign policy, and for tax cuts, economy, and limited aid to farmers.
He rapidly became popular. In 1924, as the beneficiary of what was becoming known as "Coolidge prosperity," he polled more than 54 percent of the popular vote.
In his Inaugural he asserted that the country had achieved "a state of contentment seldom before seen," and pledged himself to maintain the status quo. In subsequent years he twice vetoed farm relief bills, and killed a plan to produce cheap Federal electric power on the Tennessee River.
The political genius of President Coolidge, Walter Lippmann pointed out in 1926, was his talent for effectively doing nothing: "This active inactivity suits the mood and certain of the needs of the country admirably. It suits all the business interests which want to be let alone…. And it suits all those who have become convinced that government in this country has become dangerously complicated and top-heavy…."
Coolidge was both the most negative and remote of Presidents, and the most accessible. He once explained to Bernard Baruch why he often sat silently through interviews: "Well, Baruch, many times I say only 'yes' or 'no' to people. Even that is too much. It winds them up for twenty minutes more."
But no President was kinder in permitting himself to be photographed in Indian war bonnets or cowboy dress, and in greeting a variety of delegations to the White House.
Both his dry Yankee wit and his frugality with words became legendary. His wife, Grace Goodhue Coolidge, recounted that a young woman sitting next to Coolidge at a dinner party confided to him she had bet she could get at least three words of conversation from him. Without looking at her he quietly retorted, "You lose." And in 1928, while vacationing in the Black Hills of South Dakota, he issued the most famous of his laconic statements, "I do not choose to run for President in 1928."
By the time the disaster of the Great Depression hit the country, Coolidge was in retirement. Before his death in January 1933, he confided to an old friend, ". . . I feel I no longer fit in with these times."

Pagina 164 - Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone ; if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church : but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.
