AMC Networks Partners with On Addressability Distribution Partners – Charter, Comcast and Cox – to Pilot Addressable Capabilities on its Own Linear TV and VOD Inventory
NEW YORK – Today, AMC Networks announced that it has partnered with three major distribution partners to enable addressable capabilities on its own linear and VOD television advertising. The three distributors – Charter's Spectrum Reach, Comcast Advertising and Cox Media – are the founding members of the On Addressability initiative, launched last June to accelerate the industry's ability to deliver a scalable and sustainable addressable solution to marketers that maximizes the impact and value of television.
"Addressable is the future of advertising and with On Addressability, we are finally bringing the future into the present," said Kim Kelleher, President of Commercial Revenue and Partnerships, AMC Networks.
Added Kelleher, "At AMC Networks, we are focused on bringing performance-based marketing to our clients and innovative solutions to brands, however they are interested in buying television advertising. Fortunately, AMC Networks is in a unique position to push this frontier and, with our partners at Charter, Comcast and Cox, we are already getting started."
As part of the addressability pilot, AMC will allocate a portion of its commercials to addressable ads delivered to aggregated household audiences across the Charter, Comcast and Cox cable television footprints, consistent with each company's commitment to privacy. This will increase the amount of addressable advertising inventory available to national advertisers and provide additional scale.
"We launched the On Addressability initiative last year because as MVPDs, we are responsible for delivering ads into viewers' households. Enabling addressable TV has to begin with the content distributors who lay the groundwork and set up the infrastructure," said Marcien Jenckes, President, Comcast Advertising. "Programmers have the largest amount of inventory, however, and we need their participation to achieve scale. AMC Networks' decision to partner with On Addressability is important for the industry and the start of what we believe is a growing trend."
On Addressability focuses on the "how to" of enabling addressability based on the learnings of its participants. This includes (1) defining common practices and standards, (2) enabling technical solutions and (3) working to solve larger challenges surrounding addressability, such as measurement. Charter, Comcast and Cox are working with Canoe Ventures as their technical implementation and service management arm for linear and video on demand addressability, providing programmers with one main entity to interact with to reach a larger, unified footprint of households across all three MVPDs.
"Even though MVPDs have inventory across all platforms – IP, VOD, online included – linear television is still where the majority of viewing takes place, so if we can bring better targeting and more scale to TV advertising, while maintaining security and brand safety, everyone wins, " said David Kline, Executive Vice President, Charter Communications and President, Spectrum Reach. "We're looking at a really big opportunity, and with the cooperation and support of forward-thinking programmers like AMC, we're well on our way."
"Bringing addressable capabilities to television will allow us to serve our customers better, including agencies, brands and viewers. It's no longer optional. After lots of thoughtful planning, we're energized to move ahead to the next stage of the market introduction," said Louis Gump, Senior Vice President and General Manager at Cox Media. "These addressable trials signal an inflection point that will bring scale and accessibility to addressable campaigns for national advertisers. It's an important new solution in our tool kit."

Civil War Buffs and Volunteers Enlist in Campaign to Publish Millions of Historic Records Online
By Dena Brett
SALT LAKE CITY—As the United States marks the 150th anniversary of the Civil War, people who had ancestors involved in the conflict can access millions of historical records recently published on the familysearch.org website. And millions more records are coming, as Civil War volunteers enlist in an epoch online campaign over the next five years to provide access to the highly desirable historic documents.
FamilySearch announced the release today of hundreds of millions of online records at the National Genealogical Society conference in Charleston, South Carolina. The collections include service records for both the Confederate and Union armies, pension records, and more. Some of these records have been available for some time but are now being added to familysearch.org/civilwar as part of this project. Here is just a sampling of what is available:
• Arizona, Service Records of Confederate Soldiers of the Civil War, 1861-1863
• Arkansas Confederate Pensions, 1901-1929
• Civil War Pension Index
• Louisiana Confederate Pensions 1898-1950
• Missouri Confederate Pension Applications and Soldiers' Home Admission Applications
• South Carolina Compiled Service Records of Confederate Soldiers (NARA M267)
• South Carolina Probate 1671-1977
• South Carolina Probate Records, Files, and Loose Papers, 1732-1964
• United States, 1890 Census of Union Veterans and Widows
• United States, Index to General Correspondence of the Pension Office, 1889-1904
• United States, Union Provost Marshall Files of Papers Relating to Two or More Civilians, 1861-1866
• United States, Union Provost Marshall's File of Papers Relating to Individual Civilians, 1861-1866
• U.S. Civil War Soldiers Index 1855-1865
• U.S. Navy Widows' Certificates, 1861-1910 (NARA M1279)
• U.S., Registers of Enlistments in the U.S. Army, 1798-1914U.S., Veterans Administration Pension Payment Cards, 1907-1933
• Vermont Enrolled Militia, 1861-1867
"These records are significant because nearly every family in the United States at that time was impacted either directly or indirectly by the war," FamilySearch project manager Ken Nelson said.
"Each soldier has a story to tell based on what his unique experience was during the war. Each family has their own story to tell. This is the paper trail that tells the stories about that period in our nation's history," Nelson said.
Many of the records are specific to the war itself, such as enlistment or pension records. These documents can provide key family data, including age, place of birth, or the name of a spouse. Other collections, such as census records, tell the story of ordinary civilians who lived during that turbulent time. Even a local or state death record far away from the battlefront may contain death information on a soldier that was submitted by a family member back home.
FamilySearch's chief genealogical officer, David Rencher, said many people can benefit from the records.
"With the wealth of records created by the Civil War, I am inspired by the plan laid out by FamilySearch to make a substantial amount of this material available on their website over the next four to five years. This growing collection will be one that will serve the needs of the numerous descendants of the participants on both sides of the conflict," Rencher said.
About 10 million of FamilySearch's Civil War records are already indexed, so they can be easily searched by a specific name. However, there are many more records that need to be indexed, and that's where FamilySearch indexing volunteers come in. These volunteers view a digital image online of the record and enter in important information such as names, dates, and places.
FamilySearch project manager Jim Ericson said this data will be used to create free searchable indexes that enable people to more easily find records about their Civil War ancestors.
"Once these records are indexed and published online, anyone can search for the name of an ancestor and link to a digital image of the original record, if the image is also available online," Ericson said. "Indexing helps people save time when finding records and enables a more powerful, engaging search experience."
Ericson said that more than 130,000 people helped with other FamilySearch indexing projects in the last year, but more volunteers are needed for the multi-year Civil War era project.
"We expect to maintain some focus on indexing records from the U.S. Civil War for the next three or four years to make the collection of Civil War era records extremely robust," Ericson said.
For those who want to learn more about their Civil War ancestors, there is also additional help on the FamilySearch Research Wiki. This includes information about each regiment that fought in the conflict and records created by each state that participated in the war. There is also information for beginners who are just getting started learning about their ancestors who lived during the Civil War.
FamilySearch International is the largest genealogy organization in the world. FamilySearch is a nonprofit, volunteer-driven organization sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Millions of people use FamilySearch records, resources, and services to learn more about their family history. To help in this great pursuit, FamilySearch has been actively gathering, preserving, and sharing genealogical records worldwide for over 100 years. Patrons may access FamilySearch services and resources free online at FamilySearch.org or through over 4,600 family history centers in 132 countries, including the main Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Refinitiv Partners with Liquid Inc for KYC in Japan
Refinitiv has announced a new partnership with Japan's Liquid, Inc. to streamline the electronic Know Your Customer (eKYC) process for the Japanese market. The agreement will combine the screening capabilities of Refinitiv's World-Check One solution with Liquid Inc's biometric authentication service, LIQUID eKYC, to help financial services providers improve their customer on-boarding and transaction capabilities.
Liquid, Inc. will incorporate the risk screening capabilities of World-Check One via Refinitiv's open API technology, which is designed to provide an interface for third-parties to easily integrate World-Check's risk intelligence data with their own proprietary systems and technology offerings.
"Through the combination of Liquid's eKYC service and Refinitiv's World-Check One, we are enhancing the timeliness and safety of our KYC operations," says Yasuhiro Kuda, CEO of Liquid. "We are also establishing more robust countermeasures for tackling financial crime through the use of biometric authentication and cloud technologies with the aim of realising a safer society."
The move follows recent regulatory developments in Japan, including amendments to the Japanese Act on the Prevention of Transfer of Criminal Proceeds, which now enables banks and financial services providers to process applications for new accounts and conduct transactions using digital identification and authentication.
It also marks the expanded outlook of Refinitiv since the spin-off from Thomson Reuters, and could mark the start of a new focus on Asian potential.
"We are seeing the emergence of RegTech providers globally, but many of the players are very focused on local market opportunities, as opposed to scaling across multiple markets. Clearly, as business becomes more digital and more open, the need for financial services providers to screen and know their customers becomes more pronounced," explains James Mirfin, Global Head of Digital Identity and Financial Crime at Refinitiv, speaking to RTI. "We are working with customers, regulators and partners to address those challenges, the partnership with Liquid Inc is one example of providing our global risk intelligence data which can be integrated with emerging technology, such as biometrics, to meet regulatory requirements around the world."
The move towards eKYC is also representative of a growing concern around and focus on the issue of cross-border regulation of digital identity – a question that regulators are currently struggling to answer.
"Digital Identity is a big topic, and it is being approached in a multitude of different ways. In many markets, governments are trying to drive a level of consistency, or standardised approach, however many of those programmes focus on citizen services as a primary driver of consumer adoption," adds Mirfin. "The variety of ways in which governments are approaching this is difficult for financial services firms operating in multiple markets to try and adopt. We believe the best solution is an open, federated digital identity programme with consistent standards, and a level of portability for consumers in their use of it."

Small Treasures by Mark Powell
New with remainder mark - $7.00 USD
This is Mark Powell's fifth novel. What I admire most about Mark Powell's writing is his dialogue. I find myself, over and over again, thinking - "Oh, my god, that is exactly what she would say in response to that!" Degrees from the Citadel and Yale? Yes, that's Mark! He's been kinda sailing under the radar, admired by affectionados of Appalachian Literature, but not widely known beyond. This may well be his breakthrough book. It is the story of a marriage in a small North Georgia town, but it is also a story about the impact of foreign wars on this generation of young parents. "A brilliant novelist at the top of his game. [This book] achieves that rare balance between complexity and pacing, a story rich and intricate, propulsive and satisfying. Mark Powell has been the South's best-kept secret for far too long." - David Joy. "An excellent, suspenseful ride... Powell digs deeply into some heavy themes, exploring pervasive violence and the startling path to radicalization that disaffected teens can find themselves on. In this well-constructed and believable story, there's no easy way out for any of the characters. Readers will be eager to find out how these lyrical and tense stories entwine, and they eventually do, with surprising but inevitable results." - Publishers Weekly. "There is no doubt about it, Powell has established himself as a voice not only of Appalachia, but of all contemporary American literature." —Southern Literary Review. And for those of you who are awed by the trajectory of Appalachian Literature and how it parallels our region's economic history - Mary Murfree at Montvale Springs and Beersheeba Springs and then John Fox, Jr., following his brother's coal mine towns - now here is Mark Powell, whose dad is a realtor in South Carolina's Blue Ridge where Mark was raised. Mark Powell now teaches at Appalachian State University.

Checking out Nets real estate
Valerie Block
The first glimpses of the inside of the New Jersey Nets Barclays Center in Brooklyn will be available this fall, when developer and Nets owner Bruce Ratner opens a midtown showroom to sell luxury suites.
The Frank Gehry-designed suites will collectively generate tens of millions of dollars a year. The Nets say guests won't be able to pivot without hitting a flat-screen TV or an expansive spread of food and booze.
The showroom will be in The New York Times Co. building going up at 620 Eighth Ave., which made for an easy lease negotiation: Mr. Ratner is developing both projects. Potential buyers will see a model of one of the 118 suites with 16 seats. Twelve other suites between the locker rooms, where Jason Kidd (above) et al. unwind, will have eight courtside seats.
"This sales center will show firsthand what the experience and amenities will be like at the Barclays Center," Mr. Ratner says.
If corporate New York plunks down the hefty fees to entertain clients across the East River, the cash would dwarf Mr. Ratner's legal expenses from lawsuits against the controversial Atlantic Yards project.

Opening Day Radio
No Comments on Opening Day Radio
Opening Day, no matter what the weather, is a signal that winter is truly over, and the joyous days of summer are on their way. For me, baseball is a sport meant to be imbibed in one particular way: radio. Don't get me wrong—going to a ball game in person is a great experience. Everyone should go see a real MLB game in person at least once in their life. But listening to the Atlanta Braves on the radio is the pinnacle of sports.
I love the Braves because of my mom. I don't know how my mom became a Braves fan. But from the time I was pretty little, she tuned in to our local (Greenville, SC) station on the Braves radio network for almost every game in the season. When I was very young, I just tuned out the noise. But as I got older, I began to listen and follow the game. By the time I was a teenager, I was a diehard Braves fan. Yes, yes, I joined the club in the good years—Maddux, Glavine, Smoltz, Chipper Jones—but I wasn't a fairweather fan. (Witness: I still love my Braves, even though the glory days have been a bit elusive for the past decade.)
My mom and I at Turner Field, 2008
There's nothing quite like straining to keep your pinky on the stereo while stretching as tall as you can, making a human antenna to get the broadcast on a bad radio day. Or trying desperately to find another station to listen to the game when the normal station inexplicably broadcasts the Clemson game instead. As I began to love the Braves more and more, these sort of frustrations became part of the joy of being a part of the Braves radio network rather than a deterrent.
When I was in junior high, I used to go with my mom to church choir practice, which was at 4:15 on Sundays. Most days I'd just sit in the sanctuary while they rehearsed. But some Sundays, the Braves game would be in the later innings when we arrived at church (if it had started at 1:05 or so). On those days, I'd sit in the sweltering car and listen to the game, hoping it would wrap up before the heat in the car became too much to bear. On very rare occasions, even Mom would stay in the car to listen, though under almost any other circumstance it would be totally unacceptable to be late to choir practice. Enduring the heat made me feel like a true fan.
In my childhood, it was a rare treat to watch the Braves on TV when they were on the FOX Saturday game of the week. But I was usually glad to return to the radio broadcast for the next game: the FOX commentators just didn't stack up to Joe, Don, Pete, and Skip. My experience with the players was always mediated through the Braves radio commentators—the players themselves were virtual strangers. I barely even recognized their faces or their swings. But I loved them no less for their distance.
Radio commentators are a little like historians. They introduce their listeners to people they don't know (and will never meet) by giving rich description of the events, context for the players' actions and attitudes, and background information about every aspect of their professional lives, plus a frequent dose of humor. Commentators have unique voices that become familiar and beloved, but the best ones focus their broadcast on the players and the sport, not themselves. So here's to you, Skip, Don, Pete, Joe, and now Jim (and others), and go Braves!

The Message of the Historical Medium
No Comments on The Message of the Historical Medium
[This post was written for my graduate class, "Doing Digital Humanities," and originally posted on that course's blog.]
Literary scholars and creative writers spend quite a bit of time thinking about the medium in which they work. Historians tend to think about such things less, since literary theory often doesn't work well with historical inquiry. Serious historical scholarship is almost always created in a standard medium: the monograph.
Reading Marshall McLuhan's "The Medium Is the Message" for class, I thought that a more careful examination of the historical medium might be in order.
Traditional Medium for Traditional History
The historical monograph has several salient features. First, it's a fixed document. Once it's published, it really can't be changed. Second, it has clear structural organization (table of contents, preface, introduction, chapters 1-…, afterword, notes, bibliography). Third, only a few names, often only one, appears on its cover.
Perhaps these elements of a monograph are what make it so appealing to many historians. For many years, the typical historian focused on national history. He worked within a closed geographical boundary (the United States, let's say), generally within a fairly rigid time frame (the early republic, let's say). In many instances, the goal of his research was to standardize and/or streamline the nation's history into a coherent narrative. The parts that didn't fit the thesis were left out or marginalized. The monograph could just as easily have been written on a typewriter as a MacBook.
The method of doing history correlates fairly well to the medium in which it is displayed. A closed geographical area is written about in a fixed canonical document. A standard organization correlates well with a coherent national narrative. An individual listed author emphasizes the originality of the work. Though the connections of the work to the broader scholarly community are often emphasized, the collaborative efforts of archivists, researchers, and others are usually less noticeable. Many great historians of both past and present have expertly used their medium to tell a compelling narrative that explains many aspects of human history.
New Methods, New Topics…New Media?
National history, in the last few decades, has fallen out of favor for many historians. Gender, class, race, and other themes that transcend the history of one nation have become more prevalent topics of study. These themes have often proved messy, unable to be fit into one coherent narrative. In a way that's the beauty of this new way of thinking about history: it doesn't have to be neat. It doesn't have to work out in the end.
So we have to ask ourselves: is the monograph the medium suited to this message? Perhaps not. Instead, perhaps we should look for a medium that allows for multiple narratives to be investigated simultaneously, for massive amounts of data to be made comprehensible, for something that doesn't tie history between two covers.
Cultural and social historians have long used large data sets, visual aids, and multiple narratives in their monographs. But these features often have the effect of confusing the issues or bogging down the reader instead of helping to bring clarity to complicated problems. (After all, who but the most dedicated of us actually reads all the sociological data charts or carefully scrutinizes every single map in a monograph?) Sometimes publishers do not even allow their authors to include their large data analyses in their published work.
These sorts of historical inquiries, then, would seem to invite a different type of medium, one that's better suited to their message.
Perhaps digital humanities can help provide a new medium for the new message of history. Maps can be made interactive, better demonstrating real movements. Visualizations can be dynamic, showing in one setting what might take multiple confusing charts or graphs in a monograph. Large data sets can be published online, where users can manipulate them or filter them to match their interests. At its simplest, digital humanities can provide a way to simultaneously provide multiple equally weighted narratives, which the reader can choose to read however he or she wishes.
Digital humanities also provides a way to change the inequalities of credit for work on a project. Collaboration is at the heart of traditional historical writing no less than in the heart of digital humanities, but DH tends to be more open about equal credit for all collaborators (and is working toward a better model all the time). Perhaps, then, it fits well with history whose goal is to give all people of all types their part in the history of the world.
So maybe digital humanities is a way to control the messiness of these new ideas of history without losing their analytical coherence. It may be a different type of coherence than historians are used to, but these are different questions.
Some historians wonder whether the digital humanities will change the way history is done. They worry that the message of the new medium does not fit well with the message of the entire historical discipline. They fear that the traditional practices of reading and writing will be jeopardized by the new modes of expression in the digital humanities. But historical analysis is still going on, even in new digital projects. Writing is still happening, and it's being read. In fact, digital writing has the potential for a much larger readership. So the question isn't whether reading and writing will disappear (I'm pretty confident that they won't), but whether the specific medium in which historians like to work will have to make room for other media.
I'm a traditional historian. I like monographs. I like national histories. My field, naval history, is highly traditional in subject, methodology, and practitioners (male-dominated would be an understatement). But my field also has great potential for non-monographic treatment. What better field can you have for mapping than one whose entire existence is about movement across the globe? What better field can you have for networks than one whose highly stratified structure belies the tangled web of intense personal connections amongst a tight-knit group? What better field can you have for big data work than one that records practically everything about each of its denizens' environments multiple times per day?
I don't think monographs are going anywhere, not just yet anyway–nor do I want them to. But I do think it's time for historians to exercise a little creativity in their choice of medium. As DH research changes the questions we ask, perhaps the message of our research requires a different medium to match it.

Historical Literacy and Public History, Part 2
No Comments on Historical Literacy and Public History, Part 2
My first experience doing public history was in third grade, when I dressed up as Miles Standish to do a book report of a biography I'd read about him (yes, I was the only girl in my class to read about and dress up as a male). Looking back, I know that what I was wearing was not even close to correct as far as what Standish would have actually worn. But the experience–and even some facts about Standish–have remained with me despite the inaccuracy of my costume.
My other vivid memory of history was becoming a junior ranger at Jamestown and Yorktown National Park Service sites. I remember having to card wool, identify tools, and other somewhat mundane (to an adult) things. I'm sure that the rangers there made the junior ranger program as historically accurate as possible, and I benefited from their work. Less successful were junior ranger programs elsewhere that only asked me to write things down or solve word jumbles and such.
Based on my childhood experiences, it seems to me that the way to get kids to have a sense of history is to get them to experience it in some way. (I do recognize that, as a person who has ended up in graduate school for history, my experience may be abnormal.) And the experience does not necessarily need to be 100% historically accurate in order to be effective.
Before people can have an interest in history, they must be aware of history–not just that it happened in books, like a sort of true fairy-tale, but that it actually happened. The earlier this realization occurs, the more likely (I would guess) history will matter later.
In other words, children have to understand a narrative before the facts mean anything. Many people never get past the narrative and into the actual facts of history. But again, I wonder–is that so bad?

1 Comment on Historical Literacy and Public History, Part 1
Historians and political pundits often lament the woeful historical ignorance of the public. They claim that the lack of historical knowledge causes people to make bad political choices or appreciate their country less than they should. But I wonder whether the ignorance of the American public about history (which I'm not disputing) has the profound political ramifications that so many pundits claim.
For the final paper for Issues and Problems in Public History, our professor asked us to write a paper that synthesized our readings into an argument about how the mythic past and historical memory propel the practices of public history. Working on this paper made me think about how history really functions, at least in the United States. What follows is the theoretical background for a couple of future blog posts about historical literacy and public history.
History and politics interact on several levels. These levels are fluid, often working together to help form the basis of people's historical consciousness.
First, identity. David Lowenthal suggests that "we alter the past to become part of it as well as to make it our own."[1. David Lowenthal, The Past Is a Foreign Country (New York: Cambridge University Press, 1985), 331.] Individuals base their identity in large part on their past, both their own past accomplishments and their forebears'. What is true for individuals is also true for nations. Lowenthal suggests that personal memory is to identity what history is to collective "self-awareness": memory and history validate a sense of identity.[2. Lowenthal, 213.]
Forming a collective identity is difficult because the collective has to attempt to incorporate the identities of all its members. This means that collective historical memory is both something less and something more than individual historical memory. It is less because it operates by consensus–only the things that the group agrees on are maintained in the collective memory–but more because it provides a historical grounding for people who do not have a personal past they can or want to identify with.
When individuals cannot claim their own past, they can identify with the past of a larger group they are part of. But when groups or nations do not have a past they can meaningfully identify with, they may turn instead to an invented tradition. These traditions are not just for nostalgic effect: Eric Hobsbawm argues that invented traditions are explicitly didactic, and they are used to cope with social change.[3. Eric Hobsbawm and Terence Ranger, eds., The Invention of Tradition (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2012), 1, 5.] History can be used to establish political legitimacy for groups who can establish their historical identity, perhaps even more so when the tradition is invented: Hobsbawm suggests that "all invented traditions, so far as possible, use history as a legitimator of action and cement of group cohesion."[4. Hobsbawm, 12.]
It is remarkable how powerful and pervasive an invented tradition can be. One only has to look at the obsession of Scotland (and the world) with tartans and clans to see that invented identity can hold as much weight as, if not more weight than, an identity based in historical fact. Most people who claim an invented identity probably do not even know that their tradition is fabricated. Those who do know either consciously choose to not care, or they change their way of identifying themselves. As Lowenthal points out, we almost always change the past to make it more positive and more coherent.[5. Lowenthal, 325.] But in the process of creating such a past, we exclude or marginalize those who were in the historical record but do not reflect well on our sense of ourselves.
Narratives. Identity is constructed most effectively through the use of narratives, which is the second point at which public history and politics intersect. A single person can be a part of many narratives, from the highly individual to the cosmic. These narratives are effective for at least two reasons. First, everyone remembers stories, especially about themselves. It is not necessary to know the facts of one's history in order to be part of (and be aware of being a part of) a larger narrative. In fact, the specific details do not even matter all that much.
All people need to know in order to be a part of the American national narrative is that America has always been about about life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for all; if even that is too much to remember, then citizens of the United States need remember only that they live in the greatest nation on earth. That metanarrative will inform their political choices and all them to call others' political choices into question if they appear to diminish America's greatness.
Second, narratives are flexible. They can be leveraged on all sides in order to achieve political goals. Because they are not strictly fact-based, their interpretations can be multiple and even conflicting; they may be able to merely co-exist instead of colliding head-on.
Tragedies. Some events in history do not fit into the standard heroic narrative. The grave injustices, serious misjudgments, and horrifying tragedies in history do not fit into a narrative of progress and greatness. dealing with these events and injustices is the third point of intersection between public history and politics. When narratives in conflict cannot bend to co-exist, public historians must decide which narrative is the correct one and thus which to perpetuate. Often, historians fixed on a particular narrative simply ignore the ugly parts of their past; as Lowenthal says, "Americans for whom history has to be a chronicle of national greatness shun reminders of what seems shameful and demeaning." But this type of historical forgetfulness, though impossible to avoid in the general public, is irresponsible in the hands of historians who ought to know better.
So, as historians, both public and academic, how do we work with ideas of identity and narrative?

DigiWriMo Wrap-Up
2 Comments on DigiWriMo Wrap-Up
Today's the last day of November. Advent starts in two days; classes end in four days (for me, anyhow); and today DigiWriMo is ending.
So, what was DigiWriMo like for me?
Maybe I should start with how I did on my goals.
Goal #1: Completed. All officer bios on Preble's Boys are completed.
Goal #2: Mostly completed. In the last few days, I did slack off. Bad Abby. But I got a fair number up.
Goal #3: Technically completed. I didn't do the intensive reflection I was intending. But that's ok. I wrote some other pretty good blog posts.
I purposely didn't tax myself all that far for this DigiWriMo. This is my first semester in grad school in a long time, and I wasn't sure how much time my projects would take down the stretch. In retrospect, that was probably a wise decision.
Nevertheless, I did reap some rewards from doing DigiWriMo.
Because of the rapidity with which I wrote the officer bios, I saw some connections and similarities that I feel certain I wouldn't have seen otherwise. In addition, the group has started to really cohere as a unit for me; before this month I viewed them as individuals who were just arbitrarily grouped together (although I do still think their grouping is somewhat arbitrary).
I also gained an appreciation for other people's amazing work that they wrote about for DigiWriMo. I feel somewhat more connected to the DH community than I did before DigiWriMo, even if it's a somewhat one-way connection for now.
Because I spent so much time in the blogosphere and on my Omeka site this month, when a speaker at Northeastern mentioned the possibility of doing a department-based group blog, I jumped at the idea. Thanks in part to DigiWriMo, we successfully launched Global History in the Digital Age in the middle of the month. This blog's authors are members of Northeastern University's history department, and we're writing about things that we're doing in history right now, digital or not. (Please read and follow!)
Global History in the Digital Age is giving some members of my cohort the chance to get their ideas out on the Web without having to deal with the admin stuff of running a blog. So DigiWriMo did something for not just me but also at least four (right now) people in my department. (Since I started the blog, I think I should get DigiWriMo credit for all of the posts on it right now–just kidding. 🙂 )
I'm sure the makers of DigiWriMo will be making structural changes to the event for next year (though mad props to them for a really fantastic month of writing!). For myself, there are a few things I'd like to do or see done for next year.
1. I'd like to see more historians participating. Perhaps I just wasn't looking in the right place, but I seemed a bit like a horse among a herd of zebras.
I'll probably be proselytizing DigiWriMo next year several months in advance of November. I'd love to see some of my cohort at Northeastern participate. Now that we have our blog up and running, they have the platform to do the writing.
2. I'd like to do more substantive collaboration with other historians. This follows from No. 1, of course. I enjoyed participating in the opening-day collaborative poem and the collaborative novel, but I'm not that much of a creative writer like that. (I still need pen and paper to do most of my creative writing.) But I would love to see some serious historical research collaborations.
More historians would also be nice for the Twitter discussions, since the types of digital writing that might be discussed would be different from the literature-types' writing.
3. Next year, I'm doing 50,000. You can hold me to that.
Total word count for the month (not counting FB and Twitter words): 13,800 words

WriMos
3 Comments on WriMos
I remember the first time I heard the word(?) NaNoWriMo. First I thought: What in the world does that word(?) mean? It sounds a bit like an alien planet. Once I found out what it was, I thought: You people are insane. Write a novel in a month? That's crazy.
I still think NaNoWriMo is crazy. But it has spurred several other WriMos that seem a little more useful to my current life: DigiWriMo and AcWriMo. Both of these challenges begin in about a week on November 1. And I'm going to try to do them both. I feel pretty certain that I won't make it to 50,000 words, but you never know.
The cool thing about AcWriMo and DigiWriMo is that they work in tandem. I intend to do a large portion of my academic writing for the month online, thereby fulfilling the requirements for both challenges. (Is that cheating? If it is, oh well. I'm doing it anyway.)
Both WriMos have challenged participants to set outlandish goals and make them public. So here's my plan for the month.
The overall goal: Populate Preble's Boys with bios of each officer and ship.
The specifics:
1. Write one officer bio every day for the first 17 days, taking off Sundays.
2. Write one or two ship bios for the remaining days. (Take Thanksgiving Day and Sundays off.)
3. Blog about the progress and challenges of the site at least twice during the month.
1. Language exam, Nov. 16.
2. A live-in toddler.
3. Need for more research. (My intention is to write the bios using secondary sources for now and when I have the chance to travel to archives, then flesh them out with primary sources if needed.)
4. Thanksgiving!
The preparation:
1. Research: I need to build up my Zotero library about each of these officers so that I don't have to do a lot of reading when it's writing time.
2. Organization: I need to set up a good system for keeping myself organized. I've been working in a sort of piecemeal fashion up to this point. I need to get it together.
And that's the plan. We shall see whether my site is text-heavy by the end of the month!
I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone else is doing for DigiWriMo and AcWriMo!

Omeka Development Plan
No Comments on Omeka Development Plan
In their book Digital History: A Guide to Gathering, Preserving, and Presenting the Past on the Web, Dan Cohen and Roy Rosenzweig advocate that digital historians should have a well-defined plan for their websites before they start. So I thought I'd share my ideas about Preble's Boys here, and perhaps get some feedback from others about the plan.
First off, the inspiration. I was inspired to do this project by thinking about how naval officers of the nineteenth century acted, specifically to what extent they acted in concert with their official orders or whether they tended to be influenced by each other. One pressing question was this: How much did they really interact with each other? I don't have the primary sources to do this sort of investigation at this point (tracking down all the officers' papers is going to be quite an undertaking). When I looked for secondary sources that might address the question, I remembered Fletcher Pratt's 1950 book Preble's Boys.
Preble's Boys is an entertaining read, written very much in an old-school narrative style that has a certain charm. But the stories Pratt tells are often speculative or at least unverified (he explicitly states that he doesn't think bibliographies belong in books), so his conclusions about the cohesion of this group of naval officers are open to dispute. In addition, the maps and diagrams in the book, though charmingly drawn, are not that helpful in explaining ship movement (since they are static).
Second, the purpose. My purpose with this project, then, is to essentially reinvigorate Pratt's book using interactive web technology. I don't plan to use Pratt's actual words, but I'm going to use his framework to create a digital exhibit about these men.
Third, the goals.
I have several goals, which take the form of phases of the project.
1. Create a digital exhibition that provides an introduction to the group Preble's Boys, their ships, and the battles they were in. (That's the phase I'm working on right now.) This introduction isn't intended as a scholarly treatment of any of these men or their activities, though it is intended to be a little more scholarly than Pratt's original (cited sources and all that). It's merely for basic education. However, even this basic treatment benefits from the web medium. I'd like to use Neatline to recast battle maps and ship diagrams as interactive rather than static. Even this small change will enhance existing scholarship about the 19th-c. navy. This phase's audience is primarily the general public. (I'd love to do animations of the battle diagrams, too, but I'm not an animator. If anyone would like to collaborate, give me a shout-out.)
2. Document the connections between Preble's Boys using network analysis. This phase will help to interrogate Pratt's claims of connections between the men linked to Edward Preble. This phase will take some time, as I will have to build the network from the ground up. In other words, I'll have to track down the primary sources. I'm also not quite sure how to measure connections here. (I'm sure I'll write more about this later.) Once I get the network going, I'll publish it to the website. This phase will help historians like me see just how influential Edward Preble was in shaping the early navy. (Or maybe it will show that someone else was influential. I don't know.)
3. Provide digital copies of the papers of these men, as well as other relevant primary sources. The work of getting digital copies of the sources will hopefully occur in concert with phase 2. Getting permission to post them online and creating a decent archive framework may be the bigger issue (Omeka's going to help with the framework). But in the end, I would like Preble's Boys to be a sort of compendium of information about these officers.
So that's the plan. Comments, questions, suggestions, prohibitions, exhortations welcome!

Delta Apparel's Board of Directors Increases Share Repurchase Program
Jan 25th 2013 9:03AM
Board adds $10 million to stock buyback program
GREENVILLE, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Delta Apparel, Inc. (NYSE MKT: DLA) announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized management to use an additional $10.0 million to repurchase Delta Apparel common stock in open market transactions under the Company's stock repurchase program. Since the inception of its stock repurchase program, the Company has used an aggregate $18.0 million to purchase 1,634,080 shares at an average price of $11.01 per share. Prior to the Board's action, only $2.0 million remained of the original $20 million authorization under the program.
Robert W. Humphreys, Delta Apparel's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented that under current conditions buying back the Company's stock represents a prudent use of cash. "As our stock trades at a price we believe is below its intrinsic value, in our view periodic repurchases are a sound investment opportunity and something that we can pursue without sacrificing future growth plans. We are pleased that the Board has provided us with the ability to continue to take advantage of this program as we deem appropriate."
Mr. Humphrey's concluded, "Another benefit of our share repurchase program has been to offset the dilutive effect of our equity compensation programs to shareholders. Since the inception of the program and including shares bought through the Dutch tender we completed in 2002, we have repurchased more shares than we have issued through these equity compensation programs."
The Company intends to make its stock repurchases pursuant to SEC Rule 10b-18. The timing and the number of shares repurchased will depend upon a variety of factors such as price, corporate and regulatory requirements, alternative investment opportunities and other market and economic conditions, and share repurchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

Just recently a federal judge in Oklahoma ruled that subsidies can't go to those who purchased health coverage through a federal exchange (most states). This decision adds to a mix of rulings on whether individuals in states utilizing the federal marketplace can legally be provided with premium subsidies. Many expect that this subsidy issue, which is a major component of the Affordable Care Act, will wind up before the U.S. Supreme Court. In July, two U.S. appeals courts issued conflicting rulings on health-law subsidies, raising questions about the fate of tax credits/premium subsidies provided to several million Americans. While this issue makes its way through the courts, subsidies remain available.

The recipe says 'Room Temperature Butter. Yikes! Straight from the fridge butter and ready to bake, do not go together. How to bring Butter to Room Temperature in a hurry is the question. I have the answer! While we all love the idea of meditating over what to bake, assembling ingredients, putting on some music, and taking our sweet time, life doesn't always allow for it. But that does not mean we should skip out on our favorite treats or resort to buying store bought baked goods.
Room Temperature Butter is almost an essential for great results. You might think this is a small detail that can be overlooked. However, it really does make a huge difference to the over-all texture and cooking time of your baked goods. Things like Room Temperature Eggs, or Room Temperature Butter, offer a much better texture to your dishes overall, than cold eggs and butter does.
If you don't have Room Temperature Butter and you're running short on time, there's no need to pop cold butter in the microwave. This is risky, it is easy to over melt it. Simply fill a large, deep bowl with warm water. Place your stick of cold butter in a slightly smaller bowl and submerge the bowl in the bowl of hot water. Wait just 3-5 minutes depending on how cold your butter was, and just like that your butter should be perfectly soft and room temperature. This means there's no reason not to start baking those cookies at 10 p.m., and you'll still be in bed by midnight.
I'm so glad to share this trick with you for making room temperature butter, as I know its one you will all use at some point or another. Next time you want to bake a cake on the fly you will ready to rock!
This is just one simple baking tip to make your life easier in the kitchen, but I can help you with lots of other tips. Do you ever have trouble filling a piping bag? What do you do if you don't have a rolling pin on hand? These answers and many more are answered in my Bold Baking Basics.
I've been watching your videos for over a year now and can honestly say, it's still my favorite pastime! I've made several of your recipes so far. Breads, pie crust, peanut butter, butter, cookies and so on. So thankful to have found you!
Thank you for being here with us. We are lucky to have such loyal supporters. Do let us see your results too, it is encouraging for other bold bakers.
This is great! I've always microwaved my butter to get it soft but now I will try this. Thanks! P.S. I'm making your Best Ever Brownies recipe for a brownie bake off at work! Fingers crossed!
Glad you found it helpful, Tracey.
Would the same trick work with eggs?
Yes Christine you can actually put the eggs directly in warm water to bring them to room temp.
I love watching your videos. I want to make all of them. I will post them as I make them. Thank you.
Your recipes look luscious….looking forward to making the donuts and cinnamon rolls….hmmm…You are very pleasant to watch and easy to understand….and, also, thank you for the tips…..
Thank you, that is so kind, I appreciate your kind support.
Lots more to come this year, stay tuned!
Was looking at conversion charts and other baking basics and saw this trick. Now I know what to do with cold butter straight out of the fridge. There have been times when I decided not to bake because I didn't have the butter out to thaw to room temperature. At times I did pop them into the microwave until some of it slightly melted and the rest remained soft. But this is really helpful. Your website is a wealth of information on baking, very valuable resource indeed. I don't browse through it enough, only click on the printable recipe and that is it.

Is Taylor Swift the champion artists need in the age of streaming?
She asked, Apple obliged: The tech giant launching its own streaming service agreed to pay royalties when it launches June 30. - photo by Chandra Johnson
Chandra Johnson
Posted: June 24, 2015, 4:49 a.m.
Anyone who has ever tried to listen to "Blank Space" on streaming service Spotify can guess how Taylor Swift feels about streaming.
The 25-year-old megastar's music is nowhere to be found on the service after Swift had a showdown with Spotify and other streaming services not paying artist royalties or paying at a low rate and arguably, she won. Swift fans were unphased that they couldn't get her latest album, "1989," on streaming the album's sales broke records when it was released in 2014.
This weekend, Swift exercised her power again, by first yanking "1989" from Apple's newly announced streaming service and then writing a Tumblr post outlining her reasons.
"This is not about me," Swift wrote on Tumblr. "I say to Apple with all due respect, its not too late to change this policy and change the minds of those in the music industry who will be deeply and gravely affected by this. We dont ask you for free iPhones. Please dont ask us to provide you with our music for no compensation."
Swift spoke and within a day Apple listened announcing that it planned to pay royalties in order to appease Swift and the artists she championed when she withheld her album a week away from Apple's global launch of its streaming service June 30.
"When news of the financial aspects of Apple deal originally broke, American Association of Independent Music, an influential trade organization of independent record labels, advised their members to hold off on licensing their music to the service," Kevin Truong wrote for the Christian Science Monitor. "But it was only after Swifts letter went viral that Apples policy on the matter changed."
Other artists applauded Swift's statement on Twitter, calling her stance advocacy not for herself, but for new and emerging artists in a changing industry.
"If more artists insisted on being paid for their work, new bands might have a chance," Kiss frontman Gene Simmons tweeted.

Air Force Chief Frustrated Over Helicopter Wrangling

Topic: Air Force Chief Frustrated Over Helicopter Wrangling
By Roxana Tiron
Air Force Chief of Staff Michael Moseley expressed frustration at the prospect of a protracted fight between the Air Force's acquisition arm and industry, along with Capitol Hill, over a controversial rescue helicopter contract award.
"Combat search and rescue is a big deal for people like me," said Moseley, a general who represents the operational side of the Air Force. "So the notion of continued protest and the notion of continued lawyers and [administration] and messing with this is not right from the operational side when we are fighting the war."
The Air Force was expected to issue a new draft request for proposals (RFP) for its Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR-X) helicopter program this week, but the service is holding off for several weeks, according to several sources. The decision to wait was due in part to a Senate Armed Services Committee inquiry into the Air Force's helicopter selection decision, as well as the fact that the service had not submitted all the required documents to the panel by the end of last week.
In November, the Air Force chose the HH-47 modified version of Boeing's heavy-lift Chinook helicopter. Competitors Lockheed Martin and Sikorsky, both of which offered medium-lift helicopters, filed separate protests with the Government Accountability Office (GAO).
In February, the GAO upheld the protests, ruling that the Air Force failed to evaluate properly the lifecycle costs of the three helicopters offered for the CSAR-X program. The GAO did not rule on any of the other issues raised by Lockheed Martin and Sikorsky.
Facing pressure from the Hill and industry, the Air Force, which has decided to interpret the GAO ruling narrowly, plans to issue a new solicitation that is supposed to lay out clearly how it will assess lifecycle costs.
But the Air Force is also bracing for the possibility of new industry protests.
"We need to get on with the program," Moseley said at a breakfast with defense reporters. "This is not about lawyers. This is not about companies. This is about operational capability and fielding a capability to go pick up airmen, soldiers, sailors, Marines and coalition partners."
There appears to be a disconnect between what the Air Force chief wants and what acquisition leadership is requiring, according to an industry source.
"There is no indication at this point that the amended RFP will request any revised information about deliveries or schedules," the source said.
Lockheed Martin was quick to note that despite the protest delays and a new RFP, it is committed to meeting the program's original initial operational capability date of September 2012. Sikorsky also said that if selected it will deliver its HH-92 helicopter "well in advance" of the Air Force's requirement. Boeing did not return a request for comment by press time.
Moseley on Tuesday reiterated his previous position that the Chinook would not have been his first choice for the CSAR-X. "We would make it work," he told The Hill. "The acquisition system gave it to us. It is better than the HH-60; it's got more range and can carry more. We will be OK."
Earlier this month, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), ranking member of the Armed Services Committee, sent a letter to Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne asking the Air Force to submit a series of documents related to CSAR-X. One of McCain's top concerns was that the Air Force selected a heavy-lift helicopter when the requirement was for a medium-lift helicopter.
The Air Force was supposed to submit all documents by April 19, but failed to do so. Air Force acquisition staff met with McCain's and committee staff Friday. The meeting prompted Air Force acquisition leadership to delay the draft RFP, according to several sources familiar with the discussions.
Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) also entered the fray recently, urging the Air Force to open the books on what he called a flawed bidding process. Lockheed Martin, which is partnered with AgustaWestland for the competition, is planning to build the US101 helicopter at its plant in Owego, N.Y.
Schumer said the Air Force is moving quickly to limit the inputs from industry and re-approve the Boeing deal, and may close out Lockheed for good.
"If the Air Force doesn't change course right now, Lockheed Martin may be shut out for good by an unfair bidding process," Schumer said. According to Lockheed Martin, 200 jobs would be added to the Owego facility if Lockheed were awarded the $15 billion contract.
Moseley called the CSAR-X the Air Force's second most important priority after its new air refueling tankers, another magnet for potential industry protests.
Separately, Moseley also said at the breakfast that the Air Force may need an additional $20 billion a year for the next 20 years to address readiness, modernization and budget issues.
"When you look [at what it costs] to recap an Air Force and to maintain a global capability, the 20 billion is a rough gauge to protect the fuel accounts, the investment accounts, to protect the inflation rates and to protect the exchange range," Moseley said.
Moseley said the Air Force has little money available to buy new aircraft and that the Air Force is overseeing an aging fleet, some of its planes dating to the 1950s and 1960s. "Operational and maintenance costs have gone up 180 percent over the past 10 years, operating these old aircraft," he said.
Additionally, the troop surge in Iraq is causing further strain on the Air Force, he said. The Pentagon is borrowing money and people from the Air Force, and oftentimes airmen find themselves assigned to jobs for which they were not trained. He said more than 20,000 airmen have been assigned to jobs outside their specialties.

Anti-Asian hate crimes are on the rise in the United States. In San Francisco, the home to a large Asian population, Archbishop Salvatore Joseph Cordileone gave this homily during a prayer service for peace at the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Assumption on April San Francisco has always been a major destination of immigration. The city now teems with immigrants from Mexico, Central America and other parts of Latin America seeking freedom from oppression and a better life. The one constant of immigration in our city, though, from the very beginning down to the present time, is immigrants coming from China, whether originally to work on building the trans-continental railway, or now to work in the tech industry. For quite some time our city has also been receiving immigrants from many other countries in Asia. racism in the 20s.

Now the agency appears to have expanded its mandate into progressive politics. She claims that the disparities were the result not of Source but rather of racism, which she labels a public-health crisis. Her statement echoes an American Medical Association policy recognizing racism as a public-health threat and similar declarations from state and local government entities.
At best it reflects outdated data documenting disparities that no longer exist. At worst, it reflects a political agenda in search of a justification. Whichever it is, it suggests that public-health officials, in this case the Racism in the 20s, have become distracted from their core job.
Don't miss a beat of our coverage.
Currently, The ratio of percentage of deaths to population percentage is also essentially for Hispanics. The ratio is increased for indigenous Americans 1. Asian Americans, who have suffered racist attacks during the pandemic, account for racism in the 20s.
The picture was different back in September when blacks accounted for The increased death rate among blacks was attributable to three factors: employment black workers are only two-thirds as likely as white workers to be able to work from home ; worse source health 27 percent of non-elderly black adults, ages 18 to 64, have underlying medical conditions that complicate COVID, compared with 21 percent of non-Hispanic whites and 20 percent of Hispanics ; and where black people live blacks are a higher percentage of the population in the areas where COVID initially hit. What accounts for the decreased disparity and current near-parity in black and white COVID deaths?
Neither the types of jobs nor the underlying comorbidities of the black population have changed. It has moved beyond the initial concentration in urban areas and the Northeast.
Between September and now, when weighted ij reflect where COVID outbreaks have been occurring, the black percentage of the population dropped from The ratio of black deaths to weighted population It is whites who now appear to be disproportionately affected, with a death-to-weighted-population ratio of 1. If blacks are no longer disproportionately impacted by COVID, then purported racism cannot justify the agenda of the CDC director to study how racism and other social determinants affect health and to invest in minority communities to address disparities related to COVID and other health conditions.
Health disparities do exist. The causes include genetics, personal choices and preferences, and differing social norms and cultural factors. A multitude of other entities are better suited, racism in the 20s since the CDC has already undermined its racism in the 20s by reflexively blaming racism for all health disparities, real and imagined.
The CDC should stick to its primary mission. Rracism has now seenconfirmed Covid cases, with 16, deaths, and leads the US in new infections. However, Whitmer is not taking the same approach during this most recent wave, and is mostly relying on the vaccination initiative and a voluntary pause on in-person dining. Coronavirus infections, and hospitalizations, are also increasing in Maryland.
And on the west coast, Washington governor Jay Inslee warned Thursday that the state was poised for a potential fourth wave of coronavirus — with new cases now reaching more than 1, daily, up from per day in February, according to the Associated Press. The US has had more Covid cases and deaths than any other country: 31, confirmed infections andfatalities, according to Johns Hopkins University data.]
