The Medieval period in England is classified as the time between the fall of the Roman Empire to the beginning of the Renaissance, ranging from the years AD 449–1500. For the Anglo-Saxons, Anglo-Danes, Normans and Britons, clothing during the medieval era differed widely for men and women as well as for the social hierarchy. During this period men's clothing changed much more rapidly than women's styles; and both the men and women of lower social classes continued to wear styles from previous centuries until their garments were in such disrepair that they needed to be replaced entirely. In addition to this division, sumptuary laws also divided social classes by regulating the colours and styles these various ranks were permitted to wear.
The majority of records on women's fashion during the medieval period come from the mid-fourteenth century onwards. Around the year 1340 there was a change in women's clothing, to tighter-fitting garments, lower necklines, and more curvaceous silhouettes; "tight lacing was used on women's clothes to create a form fitting shape which, girdled at the hips, created a long-waisted appearance". Clothing was over-lapped and tightly bound; "The female chest was frequently exposed, yet the true structure of the female body was visually distorted…". The corset became a staple in a woman's wardrobe, and the open surcoat, a garment with an open bodice and a skirt that trailed to the ground, became "one of the most elegant inventions of the Middle Ages…". In fact, by the end of the 14th century, the gown had replaced all garment items aside from the surcoat.
The basic garments for women consisted of the smock, hose, kirtle, gown, surcoat, girdle, cape, hood, and bonnet. Each piece had designated colours and fabrics, for example "Materials used in the middle ages were woolen cloth, fur, linen, cambric, silk, and the cloth of silver or gold…the richer Middle Age women would wear more expensive materials such as silk, or linen". The development of the skirt was significant for women's medieval clothing, "The more fashionable would wear very large or wide skirts". The petticoat made way for the skirt, which quickly became a popular garment because it "wraps rather than enclosing, touches without grasping, brushes without clasping, coasts, caresses, skims, strokes".
The headdress, in various forms culminating in the hennin was an important element in women's dress, often complicated arrangements of hair and fabric, sometimes including veils over the face or hanging behind the head. The importation of luxurious fabrics increased over the period, and their use widened somewhat spread from the top of the elite downwards, but clothing remained very expensive and relatively few items were owned except by the very wealthy.
Medieval clothes provided information about the status of the person wearing them.
Early Anglo-Saxon regardless of social rank wore a cloak, tunic, trousers, leggings, and accessories. The short, fur-lined cloak was designed so that the skin of the animal faced outward and the fur brushed against the undergarments. However, woolen cloaks have also been found. The garment opened either at the front or at the right shoulder. A single brooch, usually circular in shape, fastened the square or rectangular cloak. Other means of fastening the cloth together included tying, lacing, or using a clasp, often made of natural materials such as thorn, bones, wood, or horns. The less prosperous wore woolen cloaks.
Belts worn at the hips were more of a necessity rather than a luxury. Buckles were common and most faced the front; however others have been found to face both sides or even, in some cases, were placed at the back of the body. Owen-Crocker mentions that "belt ornaments and tags" dangled from the belts of the Anglo-Saxons in addition to everyday equipment. Beads occasionally acted as alternatives, although not often. Leather belts, often decorated, were the most common. Intricate belts, worn to be seen, were placed in view while an additional belt or girdle held the trouser in place under the tunic.
A cloak, worn over the tunic, fastened on either the breast or a shoulder with the assistance of a brooch. Once in place, the brooch was left attached to the garment so that the cloak was slipped over the head. The cloak, knee-length and rectangular in shape, was fastened so that it appeared to be pleated or folded. Hoods and collars began to appear in the 9th century, and around the same time, the cloak began to be curbed by the same belt that was worn over the tunic. The wrap-over coat also made an appearance during this era. This knee-length coat wrapped over the front of the body. Its sleeves were, as Owen-Crocker says, "deep, [with] decorated cuffs which [were] mostly straight". For the lower classes, this coat tended to be plainer than that of the nobility.
The trousers in this era were shortened to mid thigh and stockings, made of leather, met them there. Atop the stockings, rounds of cloth, linen, or leather were worn which started at the ankle and ended just below the knee, as Planché explains, in "close rolls… or crisscrossing each other sandal-wise". Planché states that socks began to be worn over the stocking and were "banded at the top". Shoes of this era, painted black, had an opening down the instep and were secured with straps. Anglo-Saxons appreciated shoes and thus all classes wore them. Common colours for this era consisted of red, blue, and green.
Until the 9th century, the king or reigning authority wore ringed byrne which, as Planché explains, was "formed of rings sewn flat upon a leather tunic". This person also carried a projecting shield and "long, broad, straight iron sword" as Planché states.
A square crown was worn as was a longer cloak. Beginning in the 9th century, the metal of the king was inscribed and later in the century silk began to be worn by both the king and the nobility.
Planché asserts that the clergy of the 9th and 10th centuries dressed similarly to the laity, except when saying mass. Beginning in the later 8th century, the clergy were forbidden to wear bright colours or expensive or valuable fabrics. Owen-Crocker mentions that their twill cloaks were generally shorter than those of the laity, reaching just below the waist, and Planché adds, that they wore linen stocking.
Military attire was simply regular clothing with the addition of adornments depending on the number of "marks" a soldier had. These additions consisted of a spear, axe, sword, bow, shield, steel cap, helmet, an iron coat, or a linen or cloth tunic. During this era, soldiers carried either round or crescent shaped shields usually painted red. Higher-ranking officials decorated their swords with various colours and insignias. In the middle half of the century, armor began to be made of leather and weapons were made light-weight. Previous mail tunics, found to be too heavy preventing the soldier from properly fighting, were replaced by the new leather armor, which consisted of overlapping flaps, cut like scales or leaves and each dyed a different colour. In the latter half of the century, warriors shaved their heads to resemble the clergy in order to confuse foreign spies. The cowl, which was covered in rings, emerged during this time and was worn under the helmet, which also had a new addition, the nose piece. The ringed knee-length tunic was slit in the front and back to allow for more comfortable riding. The length of the trousers became shorter. "Mascled armor" began to replace the traditional ringed armory. These new iron pieces were assembled to look like mesh or nets but a combination of the two patterns have been found to be used. Another variation included covering the body in rings and removing the sleeves from the tunic. Planché mentions that a "square pectoral" was added to the breast of the armor as added protection and were "quilted or covered with rings". A yellow border was added to the pectorals, sleeves, and skirts. Shields had two new adjustments: one strap looped around the arm while a second strap circled around the neck, allowing the soldier the use of both his hands.
The clergy of the 11th century had shaved heads and wore bonnets, which, according to Planché, were "slightly sinking in the centre, with the pendent ornaments of the mitre attached to the side of it". Other garments included the chasuble, the outermost liturgical vestment, which retained its shape, and the dalmatics, a tunic like vestment with large, bell shaped sleeves, which tended to be arched on the sides. The pastoral staff was generally found to be plain in colour and ornamentation.
The 12th century brought changes in the civil attire for the inhabitants of the British Isles. The tunic was now close fitting with a long skirt. There was, as C. Cunnington describes, a "slit up in front to the thigh level" and the sleeves, now close fitting, were "bell-shaped" at the wrist or, the "lower portion [hung] to form a pendulous cuff which might be rolled up for action". Peasants wore tunics which were shorter and the sleeves were "tubular…[and] rolled back". The tunic could be worn with or without the girdle, which now carried the sword. Neck lines were either diagonal, from the neck moving across the chest, or horizontal, from the neck to the shoulder. The super tunic, worn with a girdle, was occasionally worn alone but was never paired with the aforementioned tunic. The sleeves of this super tunic had, as C. Cunnington states, "pendulous cuffs," which were uncommon, or were "loose and often elbow-length only". The super tunic was occasionally lined with fur.
The cloak and mantle, a cloak resembling a loose cape, were fastened either with a brooch or clasp, or as C. Cunnington describes, "the corner of the neck edge on one side was pulled through a ring sewn to the opposite corner, and then knotted to keep in position". For the rich, the cloak was lined with fur and for all classes beneath, the cloak was hooded and made of animal hide, with the hair facing out.
For the first half of the 13th century, linen braies were worn and then shortened to the knee in the second half of the century, which then became drawers or undergarments. Short stockings ended just below the knee and the border was occasionally decorated. Longer stockings, mid thigh length, could also be worn and, as C. Cunnington depicts, were "shaped to fit the leg, widening above the knee so that they could be pulled up over the braies". The stockings and girdle were tied together at a point in the top front of the stocking by which to keep it in place. Some stockings had stirrups, whole feet, or no feet. For hosiery, made of wool or leather, a "thin leather sole was attached" so that shoes would not need to be worn. Leg wear during the 12th century tended to be brightly coloured and stripes were popular.
All classes of men during the 12th century wore shoes or boots. Shoes, as C. Cunnington describes, were "open over the foot and fastened in front of the ankle with a strap secured by a brooch or buckle".
For the wealthy, the bands on shoes were decorated and designs were often found "over the foot or around the heel". Different styles of shoes began to appear during this era. One such, as C. Cunnington states, was "high around the ankle and slit down the sides or in front" while others were laced or had "short uppers but cut high behind the heel". Boots were most notably mid calf or knee length and laced down the front or along the inner side. These boots tended to be brightly coloured and had, in C. Cunnington's words, "turn over tops". Shorter boots, with pointed toes, were also worn and ended just above the ankle. Boots were made of leather from a cow or ox, cloth, fish skin, or, for those who could afford it, silk.
Separate hoods also made an appearance. They were loose with, as C. Cunnington describes, a "pointed cowl" and were attached to a robe stretching to the shoulders. The cape was usually a single piece of material and thus had to be put on over the head. C. Cunnington states that the "pointed Phrygian cap," or the "small, round cap with stalk or with a rolled brim and with or without the stalk" or the "stalked soft cap, resembling a beret" were worn. Travelers wore "hats with large brims and low crowns…over the hood" which tied under the chin (. Small hats with round crowns and, C. Cunnington says, "turned-down brim, decorated with a knob instead of a stalk" were also worn, as were coifs, which was a "close fitting plain linen bonnet which covered the ears and confined the hair" and tied under the chin. The coif could be worn with other hats or hoods.
Accessories for 12th century English men became more decorated. The girdle, mid century, became more elaborate in its ornamentation and in the latter half of the century, was, "tied like a sash in front with hanging ends" or, if "long and elaborate, was fastened with ornamental buckles" as C. Cunnington depicts. Wallets and purses, in the early half of the century, were hung from the girdle or the breech girdle and in the latter half were placed under the tunic, out of sight. During this era gloves became fashionable for the nobility, although they were seldom worn. Rings, brooches, buckles, clasps, and "ornamental fillets of gold and silver" C. Cunnington says were worn by the ruling classes. Wool, linen, and silk continued to be used, as was leather, which the peasants used for tunics and mantle and left the hair on facing outward. Garments were also embroidered during this era.
Men continued to wear both short and long tunics with a girdle; however the slit up the front was removed. A new style was introduced in this era in which the sleeves and body were cut from one piece of material. A wide armhole, which extended to the waist, was left open and the sleeves were cut in order to, as C. Cunnington states, "slope off to a narrow tight cuff at the wrist". The super tunic of the 11th century continued to be worn by the less fashionable, the lower classes of society, and the girdle was optional. Five new styles of the super tunic were introduced in this era. The first consisted of a front and back panel which extended from the shoulders to the calf level. The two panels were sewn together or clasped together near the waist, where they were met by a slit up the front. The neck opening was large so that the tunic could be put on over the head and a belt was not usually worn with this tunic. The second new style was more "voluminous" as C. Cunnington describes, and hung in folds to a length between the knees and the ankles. The sleeves gathered at the shoulders and extended beyond the hands. A vertical slit was cut in the upper arm of the sleeve to allow unrestrained movement. This garment, like the previous, was puton over the head and a hood was often attached. The third style was much looser than the previous ones. The sleeves could extended to just below the elbow or could be worn short and wide. A buckled belt was optional. The fourth super tunic, or garnache, was knee length and the material was cut wide at the shoulders to allow the material to "fall down on each side, predicting cape-like sleeves," as C. Cunnington describes. The sides of this tunic could be clasped at the waist, sewn from the waist to the hem, or left open and was traditionally beltless. The last style was simply sleeveless and worn with a belt.
For these cloaks and hoods red, Irish cloth was popular.
Fitchets, resembling modern day pockets, also appeared in the 13th century. Vertical slits were cut in the super tunic, which did not have any side openings, to allow access to purse or keys slung from the girdle of the tunic.
Men's headwear of the 13th century, as C. Cunnington illustrates, consisted of the hood, which was sometimes buttoned, and stalked round caps and large rimmed traveling hats, both seen in the previous century. New to this era were hats with "round brim[s] turned up at the back which could be worn reversed with the turn-up in front". Hats with round crowns also made an appearance and were sometimes found with a "knob on the crown" or with a "moderate brim with a downward slope or a rolled brim". The coif continued to be worn much more frequently.
During this era garments such as cloaks, mantles, and stockings remained unchanged. However, during this era, stockings were sometimes tied with narrow strips of material below the knee to hold the stocking in place. Leg bandages for the nobility became popular which criss-crossed and extended above the knee.
Shoes during this era were designed so that each shoe was cut explicitly for an individual's foot. Shoes were plain, and most were closed around the ankle and were laced or buckled along the inner side of the foot. Other shoes exposed the top of the foot and either stretched high behind the ankle or were clasped near the ankle by an instep strap. Boots, as C. Cunnington describes, were briefly coloured along the top, had a much looser fit, and were barely extended to the calf. Calthrop adds that boots were "turned over a little at the top".
Men's accessories were similar to those of the 11th century. Gloves continued to be worn by the nobility and could be long, stretching to the elbow, or short, wrist length, and began to be decorated, C. Cunnington explains, "with a broad strip of gold embroidery down the back as far as the knuckles". By the end of the century, gloves were more widely worn and were ornamented with silver or gilded buttons. Calthrop also includes that long hair and neatly trimmed beards were in style for 13th century men.
The outer garment of this era was known as the cote-hardie and replaced the super tunic of previous centuries. This new low necked, knee length piece was tight fitting and buttoned or laced down the front to waist level, where it then "flared into a full skirt which was open in the front" as C. Cunnington describes. The complex sleeves of the cote-hardie extended, in the front, to the elbow and, in back, hung in flaps which tapered and elongated. Sleeves during this era were decorated. A belt or girdle was worn with this new garment. The less fortunate wore looser core-hardies which did not fasten in the front. Instead they were one piece and were put on over the head. Cloaks and capes continued to be worn as outdoor wear and didn't change from the previous century.
Men's stockings of the 14th century were lengthened and tied to the gipon, so that it was hidden under the skirt. Shorter stockings were tied to garters with stripes of wool or linen. Shorter boots and shoes also become fashionable. Woolen soles were added to shoes as were straps.
The hood continued to be worn by men during this era. However, its shape changed. The pointed cowl was lengthened as P. Cunnington describes, "into a long streamer..and from this another head-dress was made which was made in the form of a turban with a fall-over flap made from the hood cape". Stalked caps remained popular and small hats with close, turned up brims emerged. Toward the end of the century men began putting feathers in their hats for decoration.
Gloves spread amongst the social hierarchy so that even those of the working class were wearing them in the 14th century. For this class, only the thumb and two sections existed for the fingers.
The Sumptuary Laws played a large role in dividing the classes as they were used to "ensure that a specific class structure was maintained." These laws served to regulate the "dress of various classes".
The lower class in the Middle Ages often did not have clothing that the nobles had access to. Poor men and women working in the fields or wet or muddy conditions often went barefoot. Upper and middle class women wore three garments and the third garment was either a surcoat, blait, or coathardie. These were often lavish garments, depending on the wealth of the person wearing them, and could have trimmings in fur or silk and with elaborate designs. Because of the cost of fabric the working class hardly wore this third garment.
Another marker of upper class was an elaborate headdress. These could involve wires, draping fabric and pointed caps. Again because of the cost the poor could not afford these and instead wore simple cloth veils called wimples that "draped over the head, around the neck and up to the chin". Working women wore ankle length dresses and men wore short tunics and breeches. The longer the garment the higher in station a person was. This is evident in the Sumptuary laws of 1327 which states "coming to the lowest class no serving man is to use 2½ yards in a short gown or 3 in a long one". Also, serving men such as servants or attendants usually did not wear cloaks, and for the nobles who did it served to distinguish them from the masses.
While most of the peasant women wove their fabric and then made their own clothing, the wealthy were able to afford tailors, furriers, and embroiderers. The wealthiest, such as royalty, would have "all these craftsmen on staff, sometimes one per each adult in the household".
Social status was of the utmost importance during the Middle Ages, and this idea was exemplified through fashion. For example, it was generally understood that scarlet tones, such as red and purple, were important items in the wardrobes of royalty. More specifically, these colours became reserved for Kings and Princes, and denoted luxury and wealth. The medieval sumptuary laws or "acts of apparel" were put into place to regulate the clothing choices of people during that time. Those who supported the enactment of such laws did so because the laws emphasized the differences between the classes, and clearly defined what those differences are. For example, the 1363 statute to the Clothing Law of 1337 states that wives of yeomen and handicraftsmen may not wear any veil or kerchief made of silk…the higher-status groups, however, are allowed to wear whatever imported items they want. This clearly states the understood division between the rich and poor during this era, and the importance of keeping the classes defined as separate entities. There were rules for every item of clothing; lower class women were banned from wearing expensive veils. Only wives and daughters of wealthy men could wear velvet or satin. There was an unfair discontinuity in the rules; lower class citizens could never wear an item designated for the upper class, whereas the upper class could wear anything that suited them. For example, wives and daughters of servants were not to wear veils that cost more than twelve cents.
The English sumptuary acts of 1463 go into explicit detail about clothing items which were reserved for those below the king's status, putting restrictions on coat length and shoe height. In this legislation, the intention was to prevent men from acting as if they were from a higher class by way of how they dressed. The laws specifically stated that a man was to dress within the status in which he was born. The acts depicted what clothing was to be worn and also clearly stated how the classes were ranked, with kings and royalty at the top and servants at the bottom. Most of these organized lists did not include all groups of people. The majority of the lists consisted of divisions of the upper and middle classes, while the lower classes were neglected altogether. This was because the middle class was considered most likely to violate the clothing laws because they were supposedly most influenced by social pressures, whereas lower-class people did not have the capabilities to dress according to a higher ranking even if they desired to do so. In fact, any mention of lower classes was done so out of necessity in order to complete the social hierarchy.
The most common material used was wool with the wool ranging in texture and quality based on the type of sheep it came from. The quality could range from the very coarse and undyed for the lower class to extremely fine with designs and colour for the upper class. Linen and hemp was another fabric used and was utilized often in the lower class and as undergarments and head coverings. Also, silk was a popular material used by the wealthy and was imported from Asia; after the crusades fabrics such as damasks, velvets, and satin were brought back to England, as was samite. Animal skins were also used such as "sheep-skin cloaks… in winter to keep out the cold and rain". Leather was used to produce items such as shoes, belts, gloves and armor.
The middle class could usually afford to dye their wool and colours such as blue and green. The wealthy could afford to add elaborate designs to their clothing as well as dying it red and black, expensive colours for the time. Purple was also considered a colour of royalty and was reserved for kings or religious figures such as the pope.

Nicole Khan:
The overarching theme of my research is the use of sedimentary, microfossil and geochemical indicators to obtain records of present and past storms, floods and sea levels, and their extent of geological and ecological impacts. These records provide means to assess future risk, reveal the spatial and temporal variability of coastal inundation and decipher the relationship of these events to global climatic changes.

Andrea Hawkes:
Dr. Hawkes' main research interests include the development and application of environmental modeling and quantitative palaeoenvironmental reconstruction techniques with the aim of understanding the role of earthquakes, tsunamis, storms as driving mechanisms of Quaternary relative sea-level change and coastal evolution.
Dr. Hawkes' research has been undertaken in coastal and wetland ecosystems in temperate and tropical environments (Indonesia, Malaysia, French Polynesia, Belize, Bermuda, Alaska and coastal USA), which are under increasing pressure from a variety of natural and artificial processes. A key output of this research is the development of very precise reconstructions of former sea levels using a statistically based relationship between contemporary foraminifera (a single-celled marine organism) and their correlation to elevation and fossil foraminiferal assemblages.
She aims to produced high-precision geological reconstructions of relative sea level of sufficient resolution to better estimate vertical ground displacements associated with the earthquake deformation cycle and reconstruct past sea-level variations at various temporal and spatial scales. She uses a multiproxy approach (e.g., surface sampling, coring, GPR, CHIRP, micropaleontology, sedimentology, stratigraphy, and AMS 14C, 210Pb, 137Cs dating)

Jessica Pilarczyk:
The goal of my research is to understand how coastal systems have been altered by catastrophic events (earthquakes, storms, tsunamis) and sea-level change over the Holocene, and through this understanding, improve our ability to forecast how coastal systems will respond to future events and changes. Fundamental to this aim is bridging the gap between short-term instrumental records and predictions. Primarily I use sedimentary, mollusk and microfossil evidence to better understand the record of past earthquakes, storms, tsunamis and sea-level change in a variety of coastal systems in temperate, tropical and arid environments. My current research interests fall into, but are not limited to, three broad themes:
1. The role of storms and tsunamis on coastal evolution
2. Earthquake history over multiple seismic cycles
3. Millennial scale changes in sea level

Yvonne Milker:
One major aim of my current research is the precise reconstruction of earthquake-induced land-level changes during the last five earthquake cycles at the central Cascadia subduction zone by using salt-marsh foraminiferal-based transfer functions. Further aim is the continuous observation of the tidal restoration of the Bandon Marsh National Wildlife Refuge in southern Oregon. This tidal restoration simulates sudden subsidence during a great subduction-zone earthquake and provides a unique opportunity to observe the physical and biological changes that occur during a "coseismic" sea-level rise and of "interseismic" changes as simulated by the stabilization of the marsh.

Planar cross diffraction grating can be adopted to measure displacement as scale. In this paper, Planar grating interferometer configuration for precise displacement measurements is introduced, and the principle of interferometer based on polarization optics is deduced. According to 2-D grating interferometer structure, error sources are analyzed, and the pitch and yaw of 2-D grating guide caused by planar guide's non-linearity is the main factors to decrease the measurement system's accuracy. With grating interferometer error sources analysis, precise planar stage is proposed to integrate with the gating interferometer, the stage is compact and can minimize abbe error in structure. The methods of calibration and error compensation are employed to improve the position accuracy of the stage. As experiments show, the stage position repeatability is less than 0.1um.

When Namibia gained independence in 1990, teenager Pascolena Florry was herding goats in the country's dry, desolate northern savannah. Her job, unpaid and dangerous, was to protect her parents' livestock from preying jackals and leopards. She saw wildlife as the enemy, and many of the other indigenous inhabitants of Namibia's rural communal lands shared her view. Wildlife poaching was commonplace. Fifteen years later, 31-year-old Pascolena's life and outlook are very different. She has built a previously undreamed-of career in tourism and is the first black Namibian to be appointed the manager of a guest lodge. Her village, and hundreds of others have directly benefited from government efforts to devolve wildlife management and tourism development on communal lands to conservancies run by indigenous peoples. "Now we see the wildlife as our way of creating jobs and opportunities as the tourism industry grows," she also says. "The future is better with wildlife around, not only for jobs but also for the environment" (Florry 2004).
After fifteen years of Namibian Independence in 1990, the government's efforts to establish the wildlife conservancies helped the rural communal lands to gain jobs and opportunities in wildlife tourism industry, otherwise, wildlife was an enemy for their livestock.
31 years old Pascolena Florry, first coloured Nambian to become a visitor lodge manager, has built her career in tourism and wildlife which was an enemy to her teenage self.

1924 - In the year that Howard G Svendsen was born, in May, wealthy college students Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb kidnapped and killed 14 year old Robert Franks "in the interest of science". Leopold and Loeb thought that they were intellectually superior and that they could commit the perfect crime and not be caught. They were brought in for questioning within 8 days and quickly confessed. Clarence Darrow was hired as their defense lawyer, getting them life imprisonment instead of a death sentence. Loeb was eventually killed in prison - Leopold was released after 33 years, dying of a heart attack at age 66.
1941 - When he was 17 years old, on December 7th, the Japanese attacked the military base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The surprise aerial attack damaged 8 U.S. battleships (6 later returned to service), including the USS Arizona, and destroyed 188 aircraft. 2,402 American citizens died and 1,178 wounded were wounded. On December 8th, the U.S. declared war on Japan and on December 11th, Germany and Italy (allies of Japan) declared war on the United States. World War II was in full swing.
1947 - He was 23 years old when on November 25th, the Hollywood "Black List" was created by the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC). Ten Hollywood writers and directors had refused to testify to the Committee regarding "Communists" or "Reds" in the movie industry. The next day, the blacklist was created and they were fired.
1950 - When he was 26 years old, on June 25th, the Korean War began when North Korean Communist forces crossed the 38th parallel. The Soviet Union and China backed North Korea and the U.N., primarily the United States backed South Korea.
1974 - In the year of Howard G Svendsen's passing, on February 5th, Patty Hearst, age 19 - granddaughter of William Randolph Hearst and daughter of publisher of the San Francisco Examiner Randolph Hearst - was kidnapped by the Symbionese Liberation Army, a left wing terrorist group. She was found, alive, 19 months later.

Success Stories from Biographies like Howard G Svendsen
I have to tell you a VERY special story about how AncientFaces helped to reunite our family. For 13 years, I have been searching for my grandmother's missing sister. She just disappeared from the family in the 1930s without a trace. No one ever knew where or when she died or where she was buried. My years of searching have just run into dead ends, so I had given up. Today, out-of-the-blue, a young lady called me and said that she had seen a photograph on AncientFaces and one of the women in the photo was her grandmother! Little did I know that she had left a small child behind when she died so young of TB. You can imagine our shock and excitement at finding each other and a whole new family that we never knew existed. We only live one state away from each other and very soon plan to have all family members meet to share our sides of "the story" and of course, many, many more picturesl AncientFaces...... without you, this family may never have been complete and Aunt Grace would have been lost to us forever. I hope you realize what a valuable service you provide and how grateful we are to have found you. Thank you!!!! -Lynda B.
I never knew my biological family. My family is my mother and father who raised me. But, as I got older I got curious about my heritage. It took me years of investigation to finally discover my parents' names. Well, I get goosebumps just writing this, I have found my biological family because of AncientFaces. Yes!! I did a search for my [parents' names] and was shocked to find a photo of them on AncientFaces! I cannot tell you the feeling that came over me when I saw this photo - to see the faces of my biological parents…JUST LIKE THAT. I left a comment on the photo and you won't believe this - the owner of the photo is MY SISTER!!! Yes, I have a LITTLE sister! It turns out my parents were too young when they had me and had to give me up. My little sister knew I existed and wanted to find me but had no way of doing it. Thanks to you I am meeting my little sister for the first time next month. GOD BLESS YOU ANCIENTFACES. -Anonymous
We have found our missing relative entirely thanks to AncientFaces. We have received a much clearer photo of Captain Grant from his Son. The picture we on AncientFaces is an old yellowed newspaper photo. I am attaching the new photo and ask that you take the old one out and put the new clear picture in its place. With our Canadian Remembrance Day here in 2 days - the timing could not be better. Thank You, AncientFaces. My long lost Aunt is now 86 years old and her Son and I are talking by phone and e-mails. Captain Grant was his Father and died in France in 1944 and is buried there. By posting pictures of the visit to his gravesite - we connected through one of his brothers. Amazing that our prayers have been answered. Thank you -Beth B.
I came home for lunch yesterday and decided to look at my email before going back to work. The weekly newsletter that I subscribe to from the Logan Family History Center had this message in it about AncientFaces. I clicked on the link and the first search I did was for Woodruff, and Mamie was the first picture that came up. I could hardly stand it. I was late getting back to work. I had to add comments and write to you. Thank you for noticing her in the store and for the website. I can't help but wonder how many other family pictures may have ended up in that store and why. I also can't help but feel that it was meant to be and that there is a purpose that this picture is coming home as you say. What are the chances of this all just happening? It's amazing that you even picked it up at the store and then went to all the extra effort to post it. It makes me feel as though you have been my friend forever. It certainly has given me a connection to you, and I have a love for what you do. I just can't tell you how excited I am. I can't even hold it in. -Cathy K., Utah
I have previously submitted several pictures of my grandfather August Zemidat. I have tried for many years to find anyone with that name, and I have searched many genealogy web sites to no avail. Recently I was contacted by someone who saw my pictures on AncientFaces who may well be a cousin. She also provided me with information that seems to indicate her grandparents were my grandfather's siblings. Considering the many years I have been searching for the name Zemidat, I find this is absolutely amazing that I have finally found a family member. Thank you AncientFaces -Ron D.
I love AncientFaces, a while back I saw that you had labeled Garcia surname pictures. At the time I didn't have all my family facts for my research. Anyway, I wandered into your site just to check it out AND NOW 1 YEAR LATER I received a picture from an 87 year old aunt and guess what you had this very same picture on your site!! (They were my great aunts and my great-grandmother!). Thank you… -Angela M.
I have loved AncientFaces since I first found it, it's the first thing I check when I turn on the computer. There was a time when even in the most modest households there were three cherished possessions, a family Bible. a family album and a fancy lamp. It was usual for the family to gather in the parlour, generally on Sunday and talk, tell stories of family and friends with the photos in the albums as illustration. Sadly in our modern electronic age we have fallen away from the oral tradition and interest in history has waned. I was quite shocked on the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic to see so many comments from younger people who were surprised to learn that the Titanic wasn't just a movie. This is why AncientFaces is so important, to me it's the electronic age version of the oral tradition on a global scale and the sheer volume of people who follow, comment and contribute seems to prove the point. We are all grateful to you all for providing us with this wonderful site. - Arba M.

The Globe and Mail reports that at least 13 people have been confirmed in the horrific train derailment disaster that occurred last weekend in Lac-Megantic, Quebec. At least fifty people are reportedly missing. A 73-car train without a driver raced into the small Quebec town and then derailed. The cars were loaded with fuel and many of them exploded. The explosions destroyed much of the center of the town. A nightclub with people inside it was one of the buildings flattened by the explosion.

BRAvo 2018 dancer profile: Debbie and Dr. Kieleszewski
McLaren|McLaren Health Care Blog|BRAvo 2018 dancer profile: Debbie and Dr. Kieleszewski
Debbie and Dr. Kieleszewski
For Debbie, like countless other women, life could sometimes get in the way.
Working a stressful, time-consuming job, she would regularly put off medical appointments simply because there were not enough hours in the day.
Eventually she stepped down from that position. She soon became ill and was awakened to the fact that she could no longer neglect her health.
She was also motivated by her daughter, who randomly ran into an old friend at the post office. The friend, a teen, had survived a harrowing car accident and now felt eternally grateful for the gift of her life. This motivated Debbie to take action concerning her own health.
"I had neglected many appointments," said a motivated Debbie. "This included mammograms. I started making appointments."
She was glad she did. Doctors found a lump.
To determine if this was cancer or if it was benign, a biopsy was ordered.
But the tumor was so small they could not locate it with the needle. They decided to biopsy via surgery "" removing the tumor and sending it for testing.
This actually gave Debbie reason to be hopeful.
"If it was small, then maybe it's nothing too serious," she said. "They said it was something that could probably be treated with a pill. I thought it was going to be easy to treat."
This was the message she expected to hear from her physician when they gave her the results.
"They told me I wouldn't need chemo or radiation," she said. "But that soon changed."
Genetic testing revealed Debbie was negative for the BRCA gene, a genetic mutation that greatly increases one's risk for breast cancer (associated with 5-10 percent of breast cancer cases in the US). But her oncologist, Dr. Salman Fateh with the Karmanos Cancer Institute at McLaren Macomb, told her the biopsy revealed it was a very aggressive form of cancer.
Her idea of what her treatment would entail changed entirely.
"The doctors told me it was something they would need to treat with full force," Debbie said. "That would mean chemo and radiation. That's when I just lost it."
Debbie would undergo a lumpectomy, six rounds of chemo and five days of twice-daily radiation treatments "" a treatment that would last five months.
She received her clean bill of health in October 2017.
Now, Debbie is plagued by "˜what ifs.'
What if she had continued to neglect her regular medical appointments?
What if her daughter hadn't run into her old friend?
What if she had gotten her test earlier (when the tumor was smaller)? Or what if she waited?
If she hadn't had heard from her daughter's friend, she says, "I probably would have put it off longer." Oncologist Dr. Arthur Frazier told her that had she waited, the tumor would soon have grown to the size of a tangerine.
"I tried to keep a positive attitude the whole time," she said. "Someone up there did not want me to go yet."
In a celebration of support to her fellow survivors, she agreed to participate in "Dancing With Our Docs" at BRAvo 2018, asked to participate not long after her treatment concluded.
Originally she was hesitant, but then thought on it more.
"This would give me my go," she said. "To get up and get going and moving again "" to get healthy again. This would be what I needed. It was perfect timing."
She is partnered with Dr. Kurt Kieleszewski, a family medicine physician with McLaren Macomb, who, be it breast or otherwise, has had many experiences with cancer in both his personal and professional life, including two very recent diagnosis of people close to him.
"As a family doctor, you see patients who have had their lives and health impacted directly by cancer," he said, mentioning he saw his first cancer patients while still in medical school. "We're part of the front line with cancer "" we see it fairly regularly."
Not much of a dancer, but a former sure-footed college athlete, Dr. Kieleszewski has been intrigued by BRAvo after having attended the previous few years.
Sensing "˜the ask' coming, he had already made the decision that he would say "˜yes' if ever requested to participate in "Dancing With Our Docs."
"I knew I was on the list," he said with a laugh, "I just didn't know it would be this soon."

OnePlus has participated in a Reddit AMA session that revealed some of the plans for the future. The company is not interested in portable and wearable devices and other systems based on different operating systems than Android. But it is in the green robot where Chinese group developers are working. On the one hand, the update to Android 7.0 Nougat in OnePlus 3 is already underway, on the other hand, though yet possible launch dates unavailable, we found the update to Marshmallow in the OnePlus X.
The update, highly anticipated, brings the system to the latest version OxygenOS 3.1.2 with most developments and improvements seen in Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, completely renovated with new packages of icons, wallpapers, launcher and customizing for the Google search bar. To all this, add improvements to the UX platform, which provides the ability to reorder or remove icons by holding down the new configuration dedicated to Alert Slider and the system that manages permissions and new applications.
Specifically added OnePlus Music Player and OnePlus Gallery along with improvements in system performance, minor bug fixes and the introduction of Android security patches for October. The update, the last in this device because of problems with drivers and Android 7.0 Nougat, has initiated and proceeds as usual in stages to avoid discomfort at the server, and therefore you may have to wait a few days to receive the notification.
The same in what concerns the procedure for installing the firmware package via Over-the-Air. However, you can force the search by accessing the menu system updates from the settings menu and select "Start search" with active Internet connection. Currently they are circulating on the network several OTA files that are based on OxygenOS 3.1.2, but is not yet known which of them is definitive.

Mad Men: Season 7, Episode 14 – Person To Person
"You spend your whole life thinking you're not getting it, people aren't giving it to you. And you realise you don't even know what 'it' is."
(SPOILER WARNING!)
Tricky things, series finales. You never quite know what you're going to get. They range from the satisfying (Sons of Anarchy, Star Trek the Next Generation) to the absolutely perfect (MASH, Babylon 5) to the maddeningly obtuse and disappointing (The Sopranos, Lost, Quantum Leap). So what could we expect from the conclusion to one of the most critically acclaimed, understated dramas of recent times? Well, in keeping with the show's consistent tone of understated subtlety, what we got was… an episode of Mad Men. Not showy, not spectacular, but as excellent as ever and a perfectly consistent and logical ending to a story that could never really end in a conclusive way.

Mad Men: Season 7, Episode 12: Lost Horizon
"This business doesn't have feelings. You get bought, you get sold, you get fired. Even if your name's on the damn door, you should know better than to get attached to some walls."
With just two more episodes to go after this one, this week's Mad Men felt properly like the party was winding down. The surprise absorption of Sterling Cooper & Partners by McCann Erickson threw all our characters into a traumatic transition, and despite the feeling that things are nearly over for these guys, Semi Chellas and Matthew Weiner's script still managed to fit in that trademark mixture of portentous drama, black comedy and social commentary that's been Mad Men's stock-in-trade for so many years.

"For the first time I feel that whatever happens is supposed to happen."
With only three more episodes to go after this one, this week's Mad Men felt for the first time like it was entering the end game of the series. Although the show's initial focus was on Don Draper, its roster of characters has grown since then into a well-drawn ensemble – the question I kept asking myself was, how will concluding Don's narrative serve as a sense of closure for all these people? I'm amazed I missed the obvious answer. The end of the show can only be about the end of the agency – the final destiny of Sterling Cooper & Partners, which has been the centre of all these people's lives since the show began.

Virus outbreak leads to 12 feline deaths at shelter
A dozen cats have either died or been euthanized at the Iowa City Animal Care and Adoption Center because of a virus outbreak, forcing a two-week quarantine of the shelter's feline room.
Iowa City Animal Services Director Misha Goodman said the shelter took in 11 young cats from the same household Jan. 29 that were later discovered to be infected with panleukapenia, a potentially fatal illness that attacks a cat's intestinal tract.
All 11 of those cats either died or have been euthanized, and the virus also killed a kitten that was not from that first group, Goodman said.
"It is serious," Goodman said of panleukapenia, which is similar to the canine parvo virus. "It's one of the common diseases cats are vaccinated against, but unfortunately, because we're an animal shelter, we get cats in here that have not been vaccinated at all. We vaccinate everything that comes through the door, but it takes time for those vaccines to become active in the body and do what they're supposed to do."
The shelter announced last week that its feline room, which is currently housing 28 cats, would be closed over the weekend, but Goodman said Monday that the quarantine has been extended to at least Feb. 25.
The shelter has been operating out of a temporary facility at 4852 Sand Road S.E. since its former building was flooded in 2008. Plans for a new shelter have been slowed by funding issues in the years since.
Shelter staff members, wearing protective body suits, gloves and booties, have been scrubbing the cat room daily in an attempt to stop the virus from spreading, Goodman said.
"Literally every inch floor to ceiling in that room is being bleached on a daily basis," Goodman said.
By protocol, new cats coming into the shelter are vaccinated and spend five days in a receiving room before being released into the main feline area. However, Goodman said that illnesses can take longer than that to incubate, so it's possible for a cat to not show symptoms until after that period.
Goodman said the shelter has contacted people who have adopted cats in recent days to inform them of the outbreak, and she's hopeful that newly adopted cats and those currently at the shelter that have been vaccinated will remain healthy.
"Unfortunately, it's a very individual thing with vaccines, because if the animal is under stress or the animal has an immune system that is depressed that we don't see, that vaccine might not work as well as it should," Goodman said.

How to Save $500 in 3 Months — How Do You C.U.
Saving $500 dollars can be challenging. In college, I always had 3 jobs at any given time and still found myself getting "Below $100" alerts for my checking account with no cushion. When someone asked me if I had a savings account, I wistfully recalled the last $90 I had saved in it when I was 19 and quickly spent it on college expenses. I had no idea where all my money was going.
Five years later and I'm finding myself with a comfortable savings account with my credit union and I couldn't be happier to have a fund for emergency situations. I know those funds will also grow and turn into a down payment for my first home.
If your financial struggle is anything like mine, here's what you can do to jump start saving $500 in 3 months.
1. Open a savings account. My entire deposits went straight into my checking account. Big mistake. As it turned out, I had terrible financial discipline.
What I did: Put $5 in a savings account with my credit union. You have to start somewhere! It enabled me to feel like I could keep saving.
What you can do: Open a savings account today!
2. Create a budget plan. Line up all of your monthly expenses, including the average cost spent on gas and groceries.
What I did: Took advantage of my credit union's budgeting tools and found $200 a month--$100 per paycheck—that I could comfortably save.
What you can do: Get on the budgeting track and start your own system for smart spending.
3. Get rid of one frivolous expense. It's fun to have the latest technology and monthly subscription treats (hello, Ipsy), but what can you live without?
What I did: Looked at all of my monthly subscriptions and tried the "30-Day Challenge". If I could live without it for 30 days, I found it wasn't that important to keep spending money on it. Because of this challenge, I eliminated cable and saved $50 a month.
What you can do: Talk to your s/o, kids, or roommate about what you consider a "guilty pleasure" and see if you can complete the 30-Day Challenge.
4. Set a savings goal. After you save $500, how will you use it? Get together and make a plan for the money you worked hard to save.
What I did: Saving money felt so great that our family kept going and doubled it. We averaged the cost for most large vehicle repairs ($800-$1,000) and decided to dedicate the savings for vehicle emergencies.
What you can do: Split up your savings goals! Talk about how you want to use your savings. Consider investments, like CDs or Holiday Savings accounts, or plan a trip in one year to use with a small portion of what you've saved.
How can you save $500 in three months? Share your saving tips in the comments below!

Il World Baseball Classic 2009 è stata la seconda edizione di una competizione internazionale di baseball organizzata dalla Major League Baseball e dalla IBAF (International Baseball Federation).
La competizione si è giocata nel mese di marzo, durante lo spring-training dei campionati delle nazioni partecipanti le quali, come nell'edizione del 2006, sono 16, compresa l'Italia. È stato vinto dalla nazionale giapponese guidato da Tatsunori Hara, che ha sconfitto in finale la rappresentativa Corea del Sud.

Gli stadi
In questa edizione gli incontri si sono disputati in ben sette stadi di cinque differenti nazioni: Stati Uniti, Canada, Messico, Porto Rico e Giappone.

Formula
Così come nella precedente edizione, le 16 nazioni partecipanti sono state suddivise in quattro gironi. A differenza del 2006, però, le squadre si sono affrontate in una sorta di round-robin ad eliminazione diretta, in cui comunque sono state garantite almeno due partite per nazione: se almeno una delle due gare non viene vinta, la squadra viene eliminata direttamente e non potrà accedere al turno successivo.
Le partite del primo turno si sono giocate in Giappone, Messico e Stati Uniti.
Successivamente al primo turno le partite si sono disputate esclusivamente sul suolo americano. Le prime due squadre di ogni girone si sono poi affrontate in maniera incrociata (la prima di un girone affronterà la seconda di un altro) in una sorta di torneo suddiviso in due gruppi: gruppo 1 e gruppo 2. Le prime due classificate di ciascun gruppo si sono poi affrontate nelle semifinali, dalle quali sono emerse le due qualificate alla finale del 12 marzo 2009 PST al Dodger Stadium, dei Los Angeles Dogers.

Prima fase

Gruppo A

Gruppo B

Gruppo C

Gruppo D

Seconda fase
Nella seconda fase accedono le prime due classificate di ciascun girone, suddivise in due gruppi.

Gruppo 1

Gruppo 2

Semifinale e finale

Classifica finale

World Baseball Classic in TV
La visione del torneo Negli Stati Uniti è stata garantita dalla ESPN e dalla MLB-TV, mentre a livello internazionale la diffusione ha raggiunto 167 paesi tra cui l'Italia, dove la visione è stata promossa dall'emittente NASN nel canale 213 di Sky.
