Conscious of how the passage of time was eroding the village's memory of its own past, the Trust supported a project to record the village's history as remembered by a number of older residents - the 'memory bearers.'
The full introduction from the book is published here and details the ideas and people behind the project.
The book is available from local bookshops and the Craster Tourist Information Centre. ISBN 0-9550859-0-X

Controversial, religious, political and instructive literature spread during the European Renaissance thanks to the invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg around 1440, while medieval romance evolved into a Novel, it is believed that literature generally includes only works of art. Informative works such as newspapers, scientific journals, religious texts, press releases and spreadsheets are generally not considered literature. Writings considered literature are often discussed. Average readers and literary experts often disagree on what matters as literature. Literary experts also disagree with each other about what literature is and what is not. Usually, literature is defined as “of interest” or importance, which is obviously a subjective quality. Who decides if a piece of writing is important? In the past, the answer was “people who can read.” In your own life, the literature you`ve studied has probably been chosen by an English teacher or literature department at a college. Literature as an art form can also include works in various genres of subjects such as biography, diaries, memoirs, letters, and essay. In its broad definition, literature includes non-fictional books, articles or other printed information on a particular subject.   Non-fiction books may fall into the broad category of literature as “any collection of written works,” but some works fall within the narrower definition “because of the excellence of their writing, their originality, and their general aesthetic and artistic merits.”  If you want to understand the extravagant family of objects that make up our solar system—from miserable, stuttering comets to massive, annular planets—you could start by diving into the technical terms that fill the scientific literature.
Common literary examples of non-fiction are essays; travel literature and nature literature; biography, autobiography and memoirs; journalism; letters; Journals; History, philosophy, economics; scientific and technical writings.   In ancient English literature, there was once a tendency to attribute to Solomon various proverbs that were not in the Bible. Which of the following is NOT considered literature? She wanted to know what had happened in five years, or even 10 years, but the scientific literature didn`t have much to offer. As students analyze the literature, they learn to identify cause and effect and apply critical thinking skills. Without realizing it, they examine the characters psychologically or sociologically. They identify the characters` motivations for their actions and see through these actions to ulterior motives. Psychologist Maslow`s ideas help literary critics understand how characters in literature reflect their personal culture and history.  The theory suggests that literature helps an individual`s struggle for self-realization.   But it is already necessary to put these assertions into perspective. Using the word writing to describe literature is in itself misleading, as one can speak of “oral literature” or “literature of educated peoples”. The art of literature is not reducible to words on the page; they are only there thanks to the art of writing. As an art, literature could be described as the organization of words to bring joy.
But through words, literature elevates and transforms the experience beyond “simple” pleasure. Literature also functions more broadly in society as a means of criticizing and affirming cultural values. In ancient India, literature was born from stories that were originally transmitted orally. Early genres included drama, fables, sutras, and epic poetry. Sanskrit literature begins with the Vedas, dating from 1500-1000 BC. J.-C., and continues with the Sanskrit epics of Iron Age India.   The Vedas are among the oldest sacred texts. The Samhitas (Vedic collections) date from about 1500 to 1000 BC. J.-C. Chr., and the “circum-Vedic” texts, as well as the Samhitas edition, date from about 1000 to 2012500 BC, resulting in a Vedic period encompassing the middle of the 2nd to the middle of the 1st millennium BC, or the Late Bronze Age and the Iron Age.
 Between the 6th and 1st centuries BC. J.-C., the two most influential Indian epics, the Mahabharata and the Ramayana, were written and edited, the later edition dating back to the 4th century AD. Other important literary works are Ramcharitmanas & Krishnacharitmanas. In addition to empathy for others, readers may feel a greater connection to humanity and less isolated. Students who read literature can find comfort when they realize that others have experienced the same things they are experiencing or have experienced. It can be a catharsis and relief for them when they feel overwhelmed in their difficulties or alone. Literary works, at their best, offer a kind of model of human society. From the writings of ancient civilizations such as Egypt and China to Greek philosophy and poetry, from Homer`s epics to the plays of William Shakespeare, from Jane Austen and Charlotte Bronte to Maya Angelou, literary works provide insight and context to all societies around the world.
In this way, literature is more than just a historical or cultural artifact; It can serve as an introduction to a new world of experience. Some studies say that people who read literature have more empathy for others because literature puts the reader in the place of another person. Empathy for others leads people to socialize more effectively, resolve conflicts peacefully, work better together in the workplace, behave morally, and perhaps even participate in making their community a better place. There are many awards that honour achievements and contributions in literature. Given the diversity of the field, prices are usually limited in scope, usually to: form, genre, language, nationality and production (e.g. for first authors or novels).  The Hebrew religious text, the Torah, is widely regarded as a product of the Persian period (539-333 BC, probably 450-350 BC).  This consensus reflects a traditional Jewish view that gives Ezra, the leader of the Jewish community after his return from Babylon, a central role in its proclamation.  It is an important source of the Bible of Christianity, which has had a great influence on Western literature.  The Qur`an (610 to 632 AD) ), the most important holy book in Islam, had a significant influence on the Arabic language and marked the beginning of Islamic literature.
Muslims believe it was transcribed into the Arabic dialect of the Quraysh, the tribe of Muhammad.   As Islam spread, the Qur`an had the effect of unifying and normalizing Arabic.  The earliest known Greek writings are Mycenaean (c. 1600-1100 BC), written in linear B syllabary on clay tablets. These documents contain prosaic documents that deal mainly with trade (lists, inventories, receipts, etc.); No real literature has been discovered.   Michael Ventris and John Chadwick, the original decipherers of Linear B, note that literature almost certainly existed in Mycenaean Greece, but was not written or, if so, on parchment or wooden panels that did not survive the destruction of the Mycenaean palaces in the twelfth century BC. J.-C.  Homer`s epic poems Iliad and Odyssey are central works of ancient Greek literature.


The Battle of the Ten Kings, also known as The Battle of the Ten Kāṣṭhīs, was fought between King Pṛthu and a confederation of tribes at the Sarasvatī River in northern India. The battle was narrated in detail in the epic Mahābhārata, which refers to this conflict as the Āraṇyaka Parva (the Book of Forest-Dwellers). The tribal confederation that opposed King Pṛthu was known as the Vṛjis, meaning the wanderers in Sanskrit. Tribes that included King Sudasa of Soubira, King Sahadeva of Madra, King Virasena of Magadha, King Vahinin of Chedi, King Chekitana of Kasi, King Bhagadatta of Pragjyotisha, and others.
The Battle of the Ten Kings was fought in India between a Bharata king and a confederation of tribes. This was a historic battle that resulted in the death of many kings. The Bharatas were led by their king, they were victorious, but at great cost. The leader of confederation of tribe is unknown.The battle was fought on the banks of the Ravi River. This battle is significant because it marked the beginning of the end of the Vedic period and the start of the Mahajanapadas period.
The battle is thought to have been fought around 1000 BCE, making it one of the oldest battles in recorded history. The reason for the battle is unknown, but it is thought to have been over control of the land. This victory allowed the Bharata king to consolidate his power and establish himself as one of the most powerful kings in India.
Key events during battle
The Battle of the Ten Kings led Bharatas to occupy the entire Puru territory (Western Punjab) centered around Sarasvati River and complete their east-ward migration. Sudas celebrated his victory with the Ashvamedha ritual to commemorate the establishment of a realm, free of enemies from the north, east, and west. He still had enemies in the Khāṇḍava Forest to the south, which was inhabited by the despised non-Indo-Aryan Kikatas. Over the years, the battle has come to be seen as one of the most important battles in Indian history.
Impact on war and ancient Indian history
The Battle of the Ten Kings was a turning point in ancient Indian history. The victory by the Bharata king established the Maurya Empire, which would go on to become one of the largest empires in Indian history. The confederation of tribes, meanwhile, was dispersed and never again posed a serious threat to the Mauryas. The battle also had a significant impact on warfare in India, with major changes in strategy and tactics being adopted by both sides in future conflicts.

There are a lot of great books out there, but there are always a few that stand out. While I haven’t read every book out there–and I am sure there are some great ones other than these–here are four of my favorites.
1. Reminiscences of a Stock Operator by Edwin Lefevre
I have written about in prior posts, and it is still one of my all time favorites. It was published in 1923, and yet so much of it is still relevant today. It is based on the life of Jesse Livermore, a very success and tragic figure, yet through it all we learn a great deal about ourselves and the markets.
The story takes us through the ups and downs and trader…the good times and the bad times, and how to learn something from each of those experiences. It is a book that every trader I know can relate to, and offers many great reminders no matter what stage of the trading journey you are in.
2. Trading in the Zone by Mark Douglas
One of the best books I have read on the psychology of trading. It forces you to rethink how you view trading, so you overcome the obstacles so many traders face, such as over-trading, under trading, being fearful or getting greedy.
One of the most important elements of the book is how it forces you to look at the markets in a non-predictable way. Your strategy must be based on a method that works in a somewhat chaotic environment, and a sea of endless change and uncertainty. Trying to predict isn’t going to get you anywhere, and this book shows you why, and why you don’t need to predict anything to be a good trader.
3. Beyond Greed and Fear by Hersh Sherfin
Another great trading psychology type book. It includes lots of stats and psychological experiments that show human vulnerabilities when it comes to making chance bets, such as a trading decision. Humans by default fall into these traps, but by being aware of the pitfalls there is opportunity to condition ourselves to overcome them.
The book also delves into how we hide these pitfalls from ourselves, so even though we think we aren’t doing what everyone else is doing, by trying to avoid it (almost) everyone ends up doing the same thing. Our minds have hidden biases and frames of references which cloud judgement and may force us to act in ways which aren’t in our best interest. This book addresses some of these issues, helping you to become more clear in your decision making.
4. The Complete Turtle Trader by Michael Covel
This is a very different strategy than what I use, which showcases that there is no one way to trade. Rather it is having a system that matters, and then following that system to exploit an edge.
The book details the Turtle Traders, a trader experiment conducted by Richard Dennis which took ordinary people and turned them into traders by giving them a proven trading plan. The traders only goal was to follow that plan and profits would come. Even that isn’t as easy as it sounds. There are loads of winning trading systems out there, but fewer winning traders. The book helps outline what makes a successful trader and a successful trading system.
There are a lot of great trading books out there. There is also a lot of crap. I typically find that traders want to read about strategies; they want something that assures them money. There is no such thing. You are better off spending your time reading books that help you understand the psychological elements of what you will go through as a trader. Ultimately you will find that strategy doesn’t matter as much as you think, it is understanding a few basic principles and being able to handle your own biases and bad habits that will make you successful.

This tutorial outlines some of the easiest/fastest ways to get the source built. This does not outline every possible way.
Make sure you have:
- Your D compiler of choice
- A C/C++ compiler
- SFML dependencies (Linux only) - pthread, opengl, xlib, xrandr, freetype, glew, jpeg, sndfile, and openal
This tutorial assumes that git, cmake, and your compilers of choice are installed and you can use them from your terminal of choice
The DSFML project actually comes in two parts. DSFMLC is a library that wraps SFML in a C calling convention, and DSFML wraps the calls to the C code in D for more idiomatic usage. In order to use DSFML you will need both.
As DSFML needs DSFMLC to work, we'll build that first. DSFMLC uses CMake in order to configure and generate make files. For a more in depth look on using CMake with DSFMLC, you can look at SFML's CMake tutorial as they are nearly identical in the way they are set up.
Note: The following builds the 2.1 version specifically. If you want to build git HEAD, just use git clone https://github.com/Jebbs/DSFMLC.git
On Windows you can use either VC or MinGW as your compiler. You can also use VC to generate 64 bit libraries. DSFMLC also includes implib for easy building of libraries to be used with DMD. Also be aware that since you most likely do not need it when using D, DSFMLC statically links the C++ standard library into the the compiled .dll's. If you do not want this, add
-DSFML_USE_STATIC_STD_LIBS=FALSE to your cmake command.
Here are what I assume will be the three most common set ups:
VC with implib(for usage with DMD):
git clone -b 2.1 --depth 1 https://github.com/Jebbs/DSFMLC.git cd DSFMLC cmake -G"NMake Makefiles" . nmake implib
git clone -b 2.1 --depth 1 https://github.com/Jebbs/DSFMLC.git cd DSFMLC cmake -G"NMake Makefiles" . nmake
MingW 32bit with implib
git clone -b 2.1 --depth 1 https://github.com/Jebbs/DSFMLC.git cd DSFMLC cmake -G"MinGW Makefiles" . mingw32-make implib
Linux and OS X
Linux and OS X are much easier since we don't really have to worry about different compilers.
git clone -b 2.1 --depth 1 https://github.com/Jebbs/DSFMLC.git cd DSFMLC cmake . make sudo make install
That is it! You now have shared libraries/dlls ready to go.
If you do not use dub, DSFML comes with a build script that makes it simple to build static libraries for dmd, gdc, and ldc. It is smart enough to run correctly based on the system and compiler you use, but in order to use it correctly, your compiler of choice needs to be on PATH.
For example, if you want to build on 32 bit Linux with gdc:
git clone -b v2.1.0 --depth 1 https://github.com/Jebbs/DSFML.git cd DSFML gdc build.d -obuild ./build
This will correctly build 32 bit static libraries for gdc.
You can also use rdmd if you have it. For example:
git clone -b v2.1.0 --depth 1 https://github.com/Jebbs/DSFML.git cd DSFML rdmd build
will build static libraries for what ever system you happen to be running for use with DMD.
For more information about what the script can do, pass it

The Techmobile and Free Library Hot Spots are part of the effort to spread digital literacy, but we often encounter those with multiple literacy issues.
According to the Center for Literacy, an estimated 550,000 individuals in Philadelphia are considered low literate. And if you’ve been paying attention to the big digital literacy push here in Philly, you’ve probably heard something like 41%-55% of Philadelphians lack access to broadband internet.
With all of these disheartening statistics, how do we keep working to help people make the leap from low literate to functionally literate and help them adopt technology at the same time? How do we look at literacy as a whole? How do we encourage students of all ages to improve?
I’d love to talk about literacy and digital literacy and what I’ve encountered working for the Hot Spots and Techmobile. If you have encountered literacy issues at your institution or workplace, how do you approach it?Categories: Digital Literacy, Session: Talk, Teaching Tags: education, literacy, session idea, students, technology


The Politics of Passion. A Biography
Harper Press, 2012
In 1702, fourteen years after she helped oust her father from his throne and deprived her newborn half-brother of his birthright, Queen Anne inherited the crowns of England and Scotland. Childless, despite seventeen pregnancies that had either ended in failure or produced heartrendingly short-lived offspring, in some respects she was a pitiable figure. This poorly educated and chronically shy invalid seemed ill-equipped to take on the responsibilities of sovereignty, but against all expectation she proved Britain’s most successful Stuart ruler.
Her reign was marked by many triumphs, including Union with Scotland and glorious victories in war against France. Yet even while her great general, the Duke of Marlborough, was performing feats of military genius on the continent, Anne’s relationship with his wife Sarah was becoming ever more rancorous. Political differences partly explained why the Queen’s earlier passionate adoration for this wilful and outspoken woman transformed to loathing, but Sarah precipitated the final rupture with the startling claim that, despite Anne’s ostensibly happy marriage, it was the Queen’s lesbian infatuation with another lady-in-waiting, Abigail Masham, that had destroyed their friendship.
Having lost the will to continue a ruinously expensive war that the Marlboroughs and their political allies favoured, the Queen changed her ministers and embarked upon a peace process that some condemned as dishonourable.
Drawing widely on unpublished sources, Anne Somerset vividly depicts the clashes of personality, party rivalries and backstairs intrigues that aroused such strong feelings at the time, and made politics so contentious. Traditionally depicted as a weak ruler dominated by female favourites and haunted by remorse at having deposed her father, Queen Anne emerges rather as a woman whose great good sense and unshakeable commitment to duty enabled her to overcome private tragedy and painful disabilities, setting her kingdom on the path to greatness.
The Politics of Passion
This is a must-read for all those who love English royal history and, after three centuries of misogyny and misunderstanding, Anne Stuart has found a worthy champion in Anne Somerset.
Out of this impeccably written and researched new biography emerges the portrait of a wise, loving, tolerant woman who held the reins of government in calm, capable hands. Somerset dispels the shadow cast over the last of the Stuarts by her great friend and implacable enemy, Sarah Churchill, First Duchess of Marlborough.
Henceforth we will be able to speak of “Good Queen Anne” without irony or condescension. Vivat Regina!
Gillian Gill - author of ‘We Two: Victoria and Albert, Rulers Partners, Rivals’ and ‘Nightingales: the Extraordinary Upbringing and Curious Life of Miss Florence Nightingale’.
‘Anne Somerset has written the definitive biography of the first Queen of modern Britain. Here, in brilliant detail, unfolds the passionate highs and tragic lows of a woman who fought to place her own mark in history. Queen Anne is a triumph of research and empathy’.
Amanda Foreman - author of ‘Georgiana Duchess of Devonshire’
and ‘A World on Fire’.
‘One of the most enjoyable biographies I’ve read in the past year, elegantly written and with an encyclopaedic grasp of the period. I loved every page of it. Somerset guides us expertly and effortlessly through the labyrinthine party politics of the reign ....Brings [the characters] to life with flair and scholarship’. Adrian Tinniswood Literary Review
‘In this admirably objective study, [Somerset] sets out to rescue Anne’s unfortunate reputation from her critics ....and to restate the case for this shy and sickly ruler as one of our most unexpectedly effective monarchs. It is in apprising Anne’s skills as a monarch that Somerset performs her most valuable repairs to our damaged portrait of the queen. It has taken immense patience and skill to create a new and subtler image of the last of the Stuart monarchs. Anne Somerset has done a real service both to us and to her namesake‘. Miranda Seymour, Sunday Times
‘While the last of the Stuarts has been judged as a weak, uninteresting ruler at the mercy of her favourites, Somerset’s wonderfully pacy and absorbing read presents us with a different picture. It’s a story dominated by the friendship of two women, full of behind-the-scenes intrigue including threats of blackmail and royal lesbianism’. John Harding, Daily Mail
‘Anne’s surprisingly successful and significant reign is widely overlooked, but this 550-page biography sets the record straight and makes for fascinating and rewarding reading. History may have been unkind to her but in this excellent biography Anne’s reputation is reclaimed’. Aline Reed, Sunday Express
‘One of the English monarchs most neglected by historians, Queen Anne receives judicious treatment in this sympathetic and engaging biography. Somerset brings Anne’s anxious and dutiful character to life with delicacy’. Christopher Silvester, Daily Express
‘[A] fine, quietly scholarly narrative, [with] a human interest core to the story, which has all the horrid, guilty fascinating of modern accounts of a celebrity marriage breakup .... If you want a coherent, engrossing account of the reign of Anne, and one that will leave you with a better understanding of the monarch and the woman, this is the book for you’. Daniel Szechi, BBC History Magazine
‘The fullest, best and most sympathetic account of poor old Anne yet written’. Lucy Worsley, Evening Standard
‘Anne Somerset, always such a sympathetic historian, tells Anne’s story movingly. Without overstating the case, she concludes that the Queen was both good and wise ....There is so much rich material in this book’. Charles Moore, Daily Telegraph
‘This magisterial new biography paints a fascinating picture of an often-overlooked monarch who, against considerable odds, emerged as the most successful ruler of the Stuart dynasty ....Incisive and compelling’. Martin Williams, Country Life
‘This well researched and readable book .... ably documents all the twists and turns of ....courtly and ministerial intrigues’. Stella Tillyard, Standpoint
‘Anne Somerset has written what must be the definitive modern account of this often-overlooked monarch, drawing on a huge range of sources. This is a triumph of scholarship: it is a detailed and sympathetic account that can only serve to bring this quietly courageous, compassionate and dutiful woman more to the fore. It’s hard to see how this could be bettered’. Trevor Heaton, Eastern Daily Press
‘The short reign of Queen Anne - a peevish, insecure woman plagued by health problems, receives overdue attention in Somerset’s scintillating history which recreates the feuds and betrayals of her court’. Benjamin Evans, Sunday Telegraph
‘It has been a rich year for royal biography... Anne Somerset’s Queen Anne: The Politics of Passion takes a monarch generally perceived as much less exciting than her Stuart forebears and, with a great deal of literary panache, demonstrates that something like the reverse was true. Queen Anne emerges as intelligent and sympathetic despite the cruelty of her gynaecological history’. Antonia Fraser, Sunday Telegraph Books of the Year 2012

The Reverend Jeffrey Colarossi called us with a simple question: how did his family become Presbyterian?
Jeffrey is a minister at the United Presbyterian Church in Pottsville, Pennsylvania. His great-grandfather Panfilo Puglieli immigrated from Italy to the United States circa 1900 and settled in the town of Caraopolis, near Pittsburgh. From checking printed resources in our reading room we learned there was an Italian Presbyterian Mission in Caraopolis at the turn-of-the century. A subsequent call to Eleanor Colarossi, Panfilo’s granddaughter and Jeffrey’s mother, turned up extra information—not only about the mission, but also Panfilo.
According to Eleanor, the Reverend Antonio Pastore, a Presbyterian pastor and local missionary, visited Panfilo’s house one day and convinced him to attend services at the mission. “I would love to know what that pastor said,” Eleanor joked. “Because [my grandfather] was not religious and he could be stubborn.”
According to the Works Progress Administration’s Inventory of Presbyterian Churches in Pennsylvania (1932), Rev. Pastore organized the Italian Presbyterian Mission in 1907 with the aid of the Presbytery of Pittsburgh. Eleanor told us that the mission attracted many of the town’s Italian immigrants for one overwhelming reason: it provided services in their native tongue. Each Sunday the mission met at the Second Presbyterian Church, holding morning services in Hungarian and 3pm services in Italian.
Although Presbyterianism has its roots in the British Isles and is commonly perceived as a religion practiced by individuals of Scotch-Irish descent, Presbyterian denominations in America have a long history of outreach to a diverse array of ethnic communities.
As early as the 1850s, the Old School branch of the Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. (PCUSA) started proselytizing the Reformed faith to new immigrants. According to Presbyterian Panorama by Clifford Drury, the Board of Home Missions of the PCUSA (Old School) had 14 missionaries working with foreign-born immigrant communities in 1856: 10 German, 2 Welsh, 1 French, and 1 Italian. Over the next seventy years the denomination increased its missionary efforts in response to increased rates of immigration to the United States. By 1922, the PCUSA had 100 churches and missions nationwide serving Italian immigrants alone, with a total of 6,173 members, as well as 560 churches and missions serving additional immigrant groups—including Slavic, Hungarian, Portuguese, Asian, Armenian, and Latino communities—with a total of 48,731 members.
In the South, the Presbyterian Church in the United States (PCUS) greeted new arrivals with a similarly robust outreach effort. Through its Executive Committee of Home Missions, the PCUS also ministered to underserved minorities of longer standing, such as Native Americans, African Americans, and Mexican Americans. (In 1890, the PCUS Synod of Texas established the first Mexican Presbyterian church in the state at San Marcos; in 1912, it founded the Texas-Mexican Industrial Institute in Kingsville with the aim of training Latin American ministers.) The Executive Committee of Home Missions worked in some of America’s largest cities, conducting outreach to Cubans in Tampa, Italians in Kansas City, Jews in Baltimore, and Chinese in New Orleans.
Today, the Presbyterian Mission Agency of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) develops Presbyterian communities of faith among new immigrants, including Koreans, Cambodians, and other growing ethnic groups. Additionally, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) is engaging in alternative methods of worship to build 1,001 Worshiping Communities in ten years. As the PC(USA) expands its outreach efforts in these and other ways, it is fortunate to have such a long tradition of missionary work to draw from, and families such as the Colarossis to help connect it with that past.
–by David Koch, Reference Archivist
Banish anxiety from your mind, and put away pain from your body; for youth and the dawn of life are vanity. –Ecclesiastes 11:10
Ah but I was so much older then, I’m younger than that now. –Dylan
American Presbyterians prepared for the youth movement of the late 1960s a decade in advance. Responding to the radical changes in American families and society at large following the Second World War – the growth of suburbs, the dominance of the automobile, the power of teen culture – the Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. Board of Christian Education created a task force known as the Committee on the Christian Home to undertake a broad environmental scan of the American family, to compare the Christian education materials of the 1940s to the family of the 1950s, and to recommend revisions. The Committee made a preliminary report to the 171st General Assembly in 1959, and its findings were published in 1961 as Families in the Church: A Protestant Survey. From 1964 on, Families’ co-author Roy Fairchild followed this work with several editions of Christians in Families for the PCUS Covenant Life Curriculum.
Where prior studies of Christian education dealt with assigning Sunday school classes to professional church educators, as did Wesner Fallaw’s “prophetic” Church Education for Tomorrow (1960), or were dedicated to grouping and grading pupils, Fairchild centered Christian education and evangelization on the family unit. His 1964 Christians in Families: An inquiry into the nature and mission of the Christian home offers a frank rendition of the breakdown of Puritanical sexual mores, and treats sexuality – channeled toward the nuclear family – as a gift. Much of Fairchild’s witness to youth echoes his work of the prior decade: youth attend too many sock hops and wear nylons too early. He accurately identifies a craving among youth to take on political responsibilities – given “a frightening future of automation, rockets with thirty million horsepower thrust, shifting populations, and Kinsey reports” (224) – but locates that desire’s expression in civic clubs, volunteerism and “workreation,” essentially offering to teenagers a bowdlerized adult world.
More than adopting the design habits of the day, Christian education in the late 1960s fundamentally altered the terms of its appeal to youth. Educators and administrators strove for empathy. Whereas, from the 1940s until the early 1960s, the language of curricula attempted to pull adolescents into the behavioral modes of adults – promoting summer conferences on college campuses; explaining the PCUSA’s “youth budget plan” – the literature of the upper end of the 1960s attempted to address teenagers as peers.
By far the hippest proponent of youth-centered Christian education was Dennis C. Benson, director of Youth Ministry of the Council of Churches of the Pittsburgh Area. In his The Now Generation (1969), Benson identifies the barriers between adults and youth as a communication failure. Just as Christ spoke in the “accent and cadence of the common tongue,” so Benson writes a primer on the culture of the now – always italicized – generation for its parents, mainly by doing exegesis on Dylan and the Beatles.
He addresses teachers directly in the fully-multimedia Let it Run (1971), which included two colored vinyl flexi-discs, and was to be read like an LP: read to the middle, flip, and read again. Benson aims for “orgiastic creative teaching” involving multiple sound reels, overlapping slide projections and call-and-response “rapping,” culminating in the run-on: “slidesfilmmusicsoundsshadowscreentouchingeachothergivingbagswithsensualthingsinsidedirtywordsonoverheadprojectorkeepingthelightsoutnudityexploredcommercialsgraffitifrombathroomwalls” (25).
Trailing a waft of media theory and cybernetics, Benson’s Electric Liturgy (1972) follows him as he quits his job from mental overload – “The emotion circuitry of the electric age breaks apart when forced through channels which are too rigid” (88) – and prepares a youth liturgy for his church. Along the way, he re-evaluates his relationship to worship as performance and as community. By 1973’s Electric Love, the “free-lance media consultant” has found in the now generation’s electronic telecommunications a counterpart to the all-enveloping community of believers: “The patterns tend to merge into each other. It may seem hard to find the linear structures for re-grooving the nature of our lives in the wired environment […] We are wired to it and part of its energy.” (117)
Real work on the pavement was also published. In 1968, in an attempt to bring congregations’ resources to bear on the problems of unemployment, teen pregnancy, and alcoholism, the Rochester Area Council of Churches pooled its efforts into Project RISK, which undertook youth outreach in storefronts and coffeehouses, where adult RISK workers made themselves available for conversation. The road was rocky: most teen lounges reported fights and drinking. RISK’s 1969 report, published by the Geneva Press as A Design for Ecumenical Youth Ministry, made clear that the work of plain listening was difficult, and that the ultimate reward – bringing youth into the fold – was hazily glimpsed. It also reads as a rebuke to the age’s jive-talking media gurus: “[Youths’] exodus from the church will not be stemmed by an intellectual debate or by any book that presents our theology in ‘hip’ terms […] Ours is not to convert, ours is to communicate. A decision is the person’s, and if you will, the Spirit’s to make.” (27)
Like many citizens of the world, American Presbyterians have changed their approach to environmental conservation through the years. In the nineteenth century the nation’s largest Presbyterian denomination encouraged a localized, private form of ecological witness, often through church publications. Today, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) regularly issues panel recommendations and press releases advocating a coordinated, planet-wide defense of what God created on the third day.
Early books such as the Presbyterian Board of Publication’s Evenings’ Entertainments (1844) encouraged young people to marvel at their surroundings, using engravings to illustrate flora and fauna. Scripture Natural History (1854) taxonomized resources mentioned in the Bible into the Animal Kingdom, Vegetable Kingdom, and Inorganic Kingdom, linking the “land where the Saviour lived” to readers’ America. God Revealing His Truth Out of Doors (1924), another PCUSA publication, instructed teachers of Daily Vacation Bible School to use passages from the Good Book as starting points for exploring the topics of forests, oceans, flowers, and birds. Love of the natural world has always been a popular sermon topic, as shown in The Beauty of God’s Earth, preached in 1949 by the Reverend John Allan MacLean in Richmond, Virginia. In it, Rev. MacLean cites Biblical teachings that involve elements of nature, such as Jesus using vines and branches as a parable for the interconnectedness of God’s people.
The Church’s environmental activism began to take root in the late 1960s, when “environmentalism” as a movement gained national attention. The first Earth Day, documented in the Presbyterian Historical Society’s Religious News Service collection, was celebrated in New York City in 1970, the same year the United Presbyterian Council on Church and Society undertook a two-year study on threats facing human survival on an increasingly crowded planet. That process culminated in the 1971 United Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. General Assembly adopting the council’s report, Christian Responsibility for Environmental Renewal, which affirmed “the priority of human values such as: physical health and cultural heritage, rights of life over property rights, …restraint in consumption, equitable distribution of resources, and modes of corporate decision accountable to the public and to existing communities.”
Unlike many secular organizations that restricted their energies to preserving natural resources, American Presbyterians incorporated issues of economic justice and peace into their environmental work. In 1951, the general assemblies of the three largest Presbyterian denominations began issuing statements regarding the environment and its relationship to economic and political integrity—statements often informed by the experiences of foreign missionaries who had seen natural resources be exploited by industrial interests and aggressive political rulers to the detriment of native populations.
In 1984, the PC(USA) played a founding role in the establishment of the Eco-Justice Working Group (EJWG), confirming its increased commitment to environmental stewardship. An ecumenical effort of the National Council of the Churches of Christ, the EJWG defines “eco-justice” as “the arena where issues of distributive justice and issues of ecological sustainability intersect and affect one another.” Working with denominational and ecumenical staff, as well as secular organizations, the group’s purpose is to “reflect and elucidate the theological bases” of eco-justice concerns. The PC(USA) still participates in the EJWG.
In response to an overture at the 1987 General Assembly, the PC(USA) Advisory Committee on Social Witness Policy formed its own Eco-Justice Task Force. Charged with reviewing existing church policies and program activities related to the environment, and developing and implementing a unified policy for all levels of the church, it released for wide distribution a 1989 resource paper called Keeping and Healing the Creation. Two years later, a Presbyterian Panel questionnaire showed that the Church’s more proactive approach to the environment reflected the changing wishes of its congregants, many of who viewed environmental issues such as the depletion of the ozone layer, waste disposal, and population growth as significant problems that were “appropriate social concerns for the [C]hurch.”
As the PC(USA) prepares to discuss environmental issues at this summer’s 2014 General Assembly, including a possible overture urging divestment from fossil fuel producers, the Church’s outspoken defense of planet earth seems likely to continue.

On April 1st, we updated our 60-year old microfilming program and officially went digital. Microfilm used to be the only way to permanently preserve records, but technological advances have made digital preservation a good alternative and far superior in its usability, cost, and space saving benefits. Furthermore, microfilm can still be used in conjunction with a digital preservation program by writing digital files to film.
While microfilm only requires storage space with little intervention other than climate control, managing digital files is an ongoing process. The Library of Congress defines digital preservation as “the active management of digital content over time to ensure ongoing access.” Digital preservation requires many ongoing actions, such as routine migration (or transfer) of files, replication of files in many places, and the addition of metadata (or descriptive information).
The Society’s digital preservation program began in 2012 when we hired Digital Archivist Elise Warshavsky. After Elise helped us establish the technological infrastructure that would allow us to preserve digital objects, we purchased a CopiBook HD planetary scanner in January to replace our aging Kodak Recordak microfilming camera.
So, why are images produced by a planetary scanner so superior to microfilmed images? Here’s a side-by-side comparison of unedited images produced by the CopiBook scanner (left) and one produced by the Kodak microfilm camera (right):
The CopiBook allows us to scan in 24-bit color at resolutions up to 600 by 600 pixels. Conversely, preservation-quality microfilm is always captured in grayscale. While microfilm produces good text resolution, it is unable to capture a broad range of gray tones, which is required to reproduce photographs and detailed illustrations. But scanners are excellent at capturing both images and text, making high-quality digital surrogates the closest thing to handling original materials. Having great surrogates available means fragile originals can be protected from damage and agents of deterioration.
Our new planetary scanner allows us to offer a broader range of digitization services. Patrons can now request reproduction of scrapbooks and photo albums, which we previously were unable to microfilm.
You can find all of our digitization rates on our website. PC(USA) congregations and mid councils still receive a discount to digitize their records, and PHS still offers Heritage Preservation Grants that help small, financially needy congregations preserve their records in digital form.
Social media platforms are notorious for lengthy terms of service (ToS); besides Tumblr’s latest revision, I’ve yet to find a ToS that is inviting or exciting to read. Still, when pushing your organization’s content onto the internet, it’s important to get a handle on what rights you have or don’t when using certain platforms.
One thing you should consider before posting: When you make something publicly available on the Internet, it becomes practically impossible to take down all copies of it.

Instagram, Facebook, and Google have all recently been involved in lawsuits relating to privacy. If you manage the social media for your organization or have a general interest in your rights as a user, it is recommended that your familiarize yourself with the various ToS documents. You should also do at least one Google search for each network and see what people are saying about changes within the past 6 months; there are usually tips and tactics in online forums that can assist your social media marketing. Terms of Service are fluid documents that change regularly, so be on the look-out for alterations that affect you and your organization.

A timeless tune
A.P. Carter, patriarch of the first family of country music, the Carter family, spent much of his adult life combing the hills and hollers of the Blue Ridge Mountains and beyond for songs. Many of the songs he found are among the classics that took the music he cherished out of the hills and hollers to the wider world beyond.
One of the songs A.P. found was called “I’m Thinking Tonight of My Blue Eyes,” which the Carter Family recorded in 1929. The melody was a hit for the Carters, one of four different titles and four different sets of lyrics, each one recorded by four different members of the Country Music Hall of Fame, and set to the same tune.
Eight years after the Carters recorded “I’m Thinking Tonight of My Blue Eyes,” Roy Acuff heard the same tune but with different lyrics from a band called The Black Shirts. Acuff recorded the song as “The Great Speckled Bird,” a song inspired by the 12th chapter and 9th verse of the book of Jeremiah. The song was Acuff’s biggest hit and it became his signature song.
The next person to get hold of the tune was William Warren, a musician and songwriter in Cameron who spied his wife at a honky-tonk one night with a man who was not him. Warren went home and wrote the lyrics to a new song called “The Wild Side of Life” which includes the iconic chorus:
“I didn’t know God made honky-tonk angels
I might have known you’d never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life.”
He set the lyrics to the tune of Acuff’s “The Great Speckled Bird,” which of course was the same tune as “I’m Thinking Tonight of My Blue Eyes.” Jimmy Heap and his band the Melody Masters, from Taylor, first recorded “The Wild Side of Life” on the Imperial label. The band’s piano player, Arlie Carter, is credited as the song’s co-writer. The Melody Masters’ version sold about 10,000 copies.
The song became a classic when Hank Thompson used it as the “B” side of his single “Crying in the Deep Blue Sea.” The “A” side didn’t get much response so disc jockeys tried playing the “B” side. Fifteen weeks later they were still playing it more than any other song in the rotation. “The Wild Side of Life” became Thompson’s signature song just as “The Great Speckled Bird” was Acuff’s.
Then songwriter J.D. Miller heard “The Wild Side of Life” on his car radio and immediately wrote lyrics for a femaleresponse to the song called “It Wasn’t God (Who Made Honky-Tonk Angels)” and submitted them to Decca Records, which contacted Kitty Wells about recording it.
Wells, semi-retired at the time, was less than enthusiastic but her husband convinced her to record it anyway since she would be paid a session fee for stepping into the studio. Her song, still set to the melody A.P. Carter found in the hills somewhere a long time ago, took over the top spot on the country charts, stayed there for six weeks, and became the first record by a female artist with sales of more than a million copies.
So there you have it— four classic songs set to a timeless tune that has found a home in church choirs and honky-tonks alike.
A.P. Carter sure knew a good tune when he heard one.

Michael and his Mother Nina.
A Son's Bold Story of Caregiving to His Beloved Warrior Dad Wrestling Alzheimer's and Dementia
"Eyes open, always! Take deep breaths!"
These are some of the important truths author John Guarino learned about care giving in battling a dreaded disease—Alzheimer’s—head-on.
John’s father Michael was crushed after he had to place his mother, Nina, in a nursing home while she was battling Alzheimer’s disease. Michael was intelligent, strong, a hardworking family man married fifty-four years to his love.
Later, after Michael’s beloved wife passed, John moved his dad to an apartment in his town with the plan of becoming his caregiver, the one who could hold his hand through his journey into dementia.
One Man’s Battle, a memoir of care taking, is a brutally honest telling of a unique story about a true warrior and veteran, the author’s father, best man, and best friend forever. Learn about the challenges of caregiving and assisted living, and the many struggles that will happen along the way. Most importantly, gain knowledge of how to keep your strength and wit, and how to accept pain and suffering, while working within systems that are far from perfect.
John Guarino, a street-smart kid from Queens, New York, and a Boston College graduate, is a former institutional equity trader. John was fortunate to leave his job at The World Trade Center twice, once just before the 1993 garage bombing, and in May 2001 just prior to the 911 terrorist attacks. Several years ago, he moved his young family south for a better lifestyle and to support his parents. John’s father Michael was the best man at his wedding. Proudly, John gave back to Michael during his brutal fight with dementia.
This is a well written account of a man’s journey and mission to provide a comfortable, respectable, and loving environment during his father’s battle with Alzheimer’s and dementia. John Guarino recounts his love for his father and the struggles of finding quality individuals willing to put forth the effort to not only do their jobs, but to care for individuals suffering from Alzheimer’s and dementia. One Man’s Battle gave me more respect for the struggles one goes through to care for their loved ones in their time of need. Thank you John for this wonderful book.
Hi John. This is Chip from C.... Just wanted to let you know (in the midst of a very busy life) I've been reading your book. Words can't describe my thoughts It has moved me deeply. A very personal work. God bless you.
Hi John, I just finished reading your book this morning. I am in tears. I remember feeling your heartache back then. It was sad to read what happened after… I am sorry that the entire system failed your Dad. It was gut wrenching to know your whole story. I hope in the right here and now you have found peace. You were an extraordinary family and if more family members were like you a change would be made in how our family members are treated. I am glad I had the honor to know your Dad.
…I finished her Dad's book at 4:30 today and relived my experience taking care of your Popie. I did not have any of the nursing home problems because Popie was at home with me but I feel his pain on dealing with all his problems. His book should be very helpful to others going through this process.
Hi Johnny... I just read your book. It is so well written and your experience sounds all too familiar. I'm so glad your Dad was finally in the right place at the end. You're a great guy and you did the right thing for your father. Love you for helping me have that good cry I've needed.
This was one of those books that I couldn't wait to come back to to see what was going to happen next. Even though it was a true story and the subject matter was touching, emotional and at times sad I felt it was also entertaining. An especially good book for anyone who is going through or has gone through the emotional roller coaster of caring for an aging and ailing parent to maybe give you some ideas on how to deal with it as well as to let you know you are not alone in your struggles.
... I finished John’s book today and was so grateful for his story. So much of his journey has been mine and I had great comfort in someone else putting a voice to my feelings and fears. Can you please tell him I am a fan of his brave storytelling and that he helped and supported a care manager living out here who doesn’t know what she’s doing but still keeps trying to honor the 5th Commandment by trying to honor a person that is my parent.
Your generous gift of John’s book came at the perfect time for me.
I just now have engaged Senior Helpers to “babysit” my mom in addition to her being in skilled nursing as I had a feeling the staff is spread too thin. Although costly, for once in a long time, I’ve felt I have a solution to that care gap. The other part about dealing with a demented brain is still such uncharted territory for me. In the end, I sleep better knowing hired eyes are on her. Selfishly, it gives me some peace in building my own way in life- I’m still getting over the loss of my husband 3 years ago. We were married 36 years, he was 59 and my best friend. I thought that alone was enough for my plate but, oops, apparently not...
I started your book this morning and got about half way.
I cried and laughed out loud on the train.
I share some of your experiences as my Mom has Dementia. It is a cruel disease. Her condition deteriorated exponentially after my Dad passed almost 5 yrs ago. I have prayed for a long time for God take her to stop the suffering that my sisters have endured.
Your book is awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Dear John Guarino,
It was great meeting you at your book signing. Your book interested me.
My brother and I cared for our parents.
It’s a hard subject to write about.
You wrote the book with courage and class.
Also it was educational for people going through the process of taking of a love one and getting help.
Love “Authors Note”, good opening.
The body of the book was good. Mentioning your Mom loved Hallmark, shopping, and your Dad’s fitness. Giving the book a human touch...
Being a caregiver is hard, emotionally, and physically. It’s hard to watch your parents digress.
Continue writing, your good at it.
Just wanted to touch base to let you know I started reading your book last night, it is such an easy read.
Thank you for sharing your vulnerability, strengths and devotion. I’m certain others will benefit greatly once they’ve read your story.
I read your really great book. Congratulations! This should bring council and comfort to a lot of family caregivers. Amazing to me, your Dad’s story is almost word-by-word identical to my Mom’s story, minus the burns. I never did understand exactly how he was burned? Your writing is concise and phrasing naturally literate. People surely can relate to this.
Most in health care don’t tell us what’s to come, although I believe they know. But you did. Thank you, John.
I wanted to let you know that I had been holding off on reading your book until I had a vacation with my family, so I would be able to sit and read your story in it's entirety without reading a few chapters here and there through the course of my business travel.
I am really glad I waited and had a chance to immerse myself in your story.
I really enjoyed reading your story and was also disturbed by "The Journey" you had with your Dad through this process.
You have a great writing style that made it very easy to engage with the challenges you were going through. Knowing you and your Dad allowed me to really feel a part of the story and I must admit I cried on a few occasions.
I'm pretty sure you know I also had to deal with losing both of my parents in a short period of time. This brought about a different type of trauma, but was nothing compared to the pain you expressed dealing with your father's illness those last few years.
I am glad he is at peace now and hope the scars of that experience are becoming a bit more of a faint memory.
Thanks for sharing your story....
