from the September 16, 2003 edition - http://www.csmonitor.com/2003/0916/p12s01-lecl.html US history classes teach horns, but not halos, report says By Elizabeth Armstrong Sandra Feldman, president of the Albert Shanker Institute in Washington, says that, while she also thinks of such American leaders as Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglas, most American children don't. "We need to present American history in a way that neither minimizes nor magnifies our failings," says Dr. Feldman, who last week released "Education for Democracy," a report that found many students unable to identify democratic institutions and their capacity to correct themselves. And their views on democracy, she says, tend to be swayed by disillusionment. The report, which calls for study that provides students with a "warts-and-all understanding of our own and other nations," has been endorsed by dozens of prominent Americans, including former President Bill Clinton, National Education Association President Reg Weaver, and actor Christopher Reeve. Based on studies of textbooks and author research, the report finds that students hear a "distorted account" of their country's past - a past that is "irredeemably flawed."

QAR PROJECT SUNNY NC: THE CRYSTAL COAST "Such a day, rum all out: — Our company somewhat sober: — A damned confusion amongst us! — Rogues a-plotting: — Great talk of separation — so I looked sharp for a prize: — Such a day found one with a great deal of liquor on board, so kept the company hot, damned hot; then all things went well again." —One of several memoranda, said to be in Blackbeard's own hand, found aboard the sloop Adventure , after the pirate was slain at Ocracoke Inlet in 1718. SOURCE: Captain Charles Johnson, A General History of the Robberies and Murders of the Most Notorious Pirates . London, 1724. Blackbeard the Pirate . . . and the Presumed Wreck of Queen Anne's Revenge D uring The Golden Age of Piracy (1689-1718), numerous rogues pursued their lawless and murderous trade throughout the New World. Restrictive laws passed by the British Parliament had made smuggling acceptable and even desirable in North Carolina and the other American colonies. Preying upon lightly armed merchant ships, the pirates seized their contents and sometimes killed those who resisted. Because of its shallow sounds and inlets, North Carolina's Outer Banks became a haven for many of these outlaws in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Blackbeard was the most notorious pirate in the history of seafaring. With a beard that almost covered his face, he would strike terror into the hearts of his victims, according to some early accounts, by weaving wicks laced with gunpowder into his hair, and lighting them during battle. A big man, he added to his menacing appearance by wearing a crimson coat, two swords at his waist, and bandoleers stuffed with numerous pistols and knives across his chest.

Wheaton v. Peters amicus brief submitted to the U.S. Supreme Court by Tyler Ochoa and Mark Rose in the case of Eldred v. Ashcroft, May 20, 2002. Folsom v. Marsh the value of the original is sensibly diminished, or the labors of the original author are substantially to an injurious extent appropriated by another, that is sufficient, in point of law, to constitute a piracy pro tanto" (my emphasis). The court's definition of what constituted a "justifiable use of the original materials" formed the basis of the "fair use" doctrine. Put another way, Story said that, "the question of piracy, often depend[s] upon a nice balance of the comparative use made in one of the materials of the other; the nature, extent, and value of the materials thus used; the objects of each work; and the degree to which each writer may be fairly presumed to have resorted to the same common sources of information, or to have exercised the same common diligence in the selection and arrangement of the materials."
