Test. Test test. Test test test. Test test test test. Test test test test test. So here is another good example. And again what do you see . We see the prim, right . The morning paper. We see executive mansion in black. It says my dear sir, i was directed by the president for your desire to change headlines and papers for all of the papers requiring his decision. Preparing nominations for senate or the houses of congress to aview the change. Sincerely yours, and it is dated october 17th, 1901. So the president s secretary saying for future reference any documents you send to the president for him to sign, the heading should be white house. So october 17th, 1901 thats when that directive is sent. But there is no real executive order, there is no law, so when they say that roosevelt officially changed the name from executive mansion to white house, it is true, but it is kind of hard to pin down exactly when it happened. We know it is october 1901, but is it when they send the letters out
Alex, was it you who wrote about the Jackson Magnolia. It was. So you already know about this. For everybody else, think back when Jonathan Pliska visited our class and we talked about the story behind the Jackson Magnolia. Who remembers the story, not alex. Anybody else . Yeah, william. Andrew jacksons wife died right before he went to office so he planted the tree because it was her favorite tree. Uhhuh. And he brought the seeds from the herm taj in tennessee and do you remember what jonathan told us . False. Well, he said that there really isnt any type of contemporary evidence. Andrew jackson never mentions planting a tree. Theres nothing in newspapers. So it seems like this is a story that has, of course, these romantic origins and its continued to grow from that ever since. So this is actually the first known exterior photograph of the white house. It was taken by a welshborn photographer named john plume jr. And about january, 1846. So, if youre looking at the white house, this
Times, whether you were researching them on the internet or doing research for your papers in this class but there are a number of stories that continue to be circulated and perpetuated. What i like about this is you get to not only debunk these things but try to figure out where they started and why people grew so attached to them ecause that also tells you a little bit more about how people understand the past and how they use it or misuse it. So, remember earlier in the semester we talked about the Jackson Magnolia. I think a number of you went into detail about the Jackson Magnolia. Alex, was it you who wrote about the Jackson Magnolia . You already know this. But think about to when johnson pivska visited the class and we talked about the Jackson Magnolia. Who remembers the story . Andrew jacksons wife died right before he went to office so he planted this tree because it was her favorite tree. Matthew and he brought the seeds from the hermitage in tennessee and do you remember wh
For the north bay this morning. We will see increasing clouds but a dry day today. A strong storm rolls in tomorrow so we have rainy and windy start to the day tomorrow be prepared for that. As we head through our afternoon looking at increasing clouds, low 50s for the coast, mid50s for the bay and inlet locations. Will time out the rain and wind with a strong storm coming up. Gianna. Good morning. As we checked the roadways so far so good if youre hopping out of heading towards 101, 280, things looking good and not a lot of cars on the roadways just yet. We are seeing a couple cars at the bay bridge but it really quite right from the toll plaza as you work your way into San Francisco but in the distance you can see some flashing lights. There is an accident for that 80 connector as you head into the maze heading towards the bay bridge. We are just seeing a few slow mental conditions on that westbound 80 commute as you head through there so give yourself a couple extra minutes. If your
