fWotD Episode 2834: John Silva Meehan Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 6 February 2025 is John Silva Meehan.John Silva Meehan (February 6, 1790 – April 24, 1863) was an American publisher, printer, and newspaper editor who served as the fourth librarian of Congress from 1829 to 1861. Born in New York City, Meehan worked as a printer in his youth. He briefly served in the United States Navy during the last few months of the War of 1812. He returned without seeing combat and began work as a publisher in Philadelphia alongside fellow printer Robert Anderson, publishing a Baptist religious journal. After the firm moved to Washington, D. C., in early 1822, Meehan began editing and publishing the Baptist weekly newspaper The Columbian Star. Leaving the Star in late 1825, Meehan nominally purchased the City of Washington Gazette on direction from Andrew Jackson's presidential campaign, renaming the paper the United States' Telegraph and taking an immensely partisan stance. Jackson supporters considered Meehan unable to properly spearhead the press campaign. Control over the paper gradually shifted towards editor and publisher Duff Green, with Meehan officially leaving the paper in October 1826; however, he continued to serve as Green's editorial assistant until 1829.Following a purge of numerous incumbent officials in the aftermath of Jackson's 1828 election, Meehan was appointed as librarian of Congress via the spoils system and with Green's urging, replacing the staunch anti-Jacksonian George Watterston. Meehan's tenure as librarian saw the steady growth of the Library of Congress, collaborating with longstanding Joint Committee on the Library chair James Pearce for most of his tenure. A large fire in December 1851 destroyed 35,000 of the library's 55,000 books. Meehan and Pearce oversaw the reconstruction of the library after the disaster, restocking it with substantial purchases of books and rebuilding the main hall. The election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860 prompted Meehan's removal in 1861 in favor of Indiana physician John Gould Stephenson. Largely unbothered by this, he retired gracefully and died suddenly in 1863. Both Stephenson and later historians were generally critical of Meehan's tenure, noting that he mainly deferred to the Joint Committee on library policy, leaving the library's archaic catalog system unchanged, and failing to make any progress in transforming the institution into a true national library.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:18 UTC on Thursday, 6 February 2025.For the full current version of the article, see John Silva Meehan on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Russell.

Navigating news literacy online. Less than half of Sacramento County students meet college requirements. Sacramento Poetry Day is on Thursday. News Literacy Project It can feel like we're inundated with difficult and emotionally charged information when we go online.

How should educators prepare youth for democratic participation at a moment when democracy itself seems so fragile? For ESD's third anniversary episode, Walter Parker, professor emeritus at the University of Washington - Seattle, explores the answer to this question by sharing ideas from his new book, Education for Liberal Democracy: Using Classroom Discussion to Build Knowledge and Voice. Walter Parker is one of the most influential social studies education scholars of our time. In his new book and on this episode, he argues that education can and must address a twofold crisis in our democracy – a legitimacy crisis and an epistemic crisis. Brett and Walter discuss how this can be done in the classroom and beyond.

How should film be used to teach about difficult social and historical issues? We all know that visual media can bring issues to life, but media also portray a limited perspective. How can educators leverage the power of film but also help students understand the limitations of these portrayals - and the limitations of the genre itself? Jeremy Stoddard is a professor in the department of curriculum and instruction at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and he has conducted research on media education, civic learning, and the history curriculum. In our conversation, we discuss his research on how teachers use film in their classrooms, optimal methods for teaching students with and about film, innovations in educational media, and much more.

The nation’s first health centers opened in 1965. Today, expansion of the federally supported health center system has grown to over 1,400 organizations, operating more than 10,000 clinic sites serving more than 29 million patients and generating $55 billion in economic activity annually. Health centers help increase access to crucial primary care by reducing barriers such as cost, lack of insurance, distance, and language for their patients. In doing so, health centers provide substantial benefits to the country and its health care system. Learn about the vital role that community health centers play in the American health care system. Hosted by: Dan Hawkins Dan Hawkins is Senior Adviser to the President and CEO at the National Association of Community Health Centers, Inc. (NACHC).

Take it away, Jamie! Hello everyone, I'm Jamie "GaProgMan" Taylor, I'm the host of The .NET Core Podcast, and Steve has graciously agreed to let me share a tip with you all. My plan isn't to talk to you about .NET Core or even development, per se, but I might use them as a background for what I do want to talk about: and that's finding the time to relax and getting enough sleep. We work in a very fast paced industry, it seems like the technology space is constantly evolving. The breakneck pace of our industry can seem overwhelming to most of us, especially if you want to keep up with the latest innovations. I know that I've been guilty, in the past, of saying something like: the moment that you stop learning, you're already a day behind Which, other than being hyperbole, is a bit of a double edged sword. On the one hand, it's a great idea to keep to speed with what's going on; but on the other hand, you need down time. Now I don't care how long you can sit at your laptop, coding into the wee hours of the morning, drinking coffee, Red Bull, Mountain Dew, or whatever your incredibly sugary caffeinated drink of choice is. Eventually, you are going to need some rest and relaxation. And rest is the most important thing. Your body, whether you are aware of it or not, can go for days without food - it would be tough, but it's doable. But you cannot go for days without resting. To quote one UC Berkley article on the subject: As little as one night without sleep is enough to turn a reasonable person into "emotional Jell-O," says Matthew Walker, director of Berkeley’s Sleep and Neuroimaging Laboratory source: https://alumni.berkeley.edu/california-magazine/march-april-2008-mind-matters/your-brain-without-sleep The brain is the most important part of the body for a developer. Without it, we can't function (if you'll pardon the pun). We need the ability to deal with complex business logic, hold several layers of the application's design in our short term memory, and to be able to parse customer requirements. Without a healthy, well rested brain you can't do any of this. In the words of John Silva (host of National Geographic Channel's "Brain Games"): One of the things that happens when you're sleep-deprived is that your ability to regulate emotions goes haywire. Your brain becomes disorganised in its capacity to process information and your sensitivity to information also get scrambled. Regulating emotions is an incredibly important skill to have, and becoming disorganised is quite possibly the antithesis of the state of mind that a developer needs to be in. You need to be able to focus on the task at hand. "But I'm an extremely well motivated go-getter, Jamie. I really don't care." Eventually you are either going to crash and burn, or you're going to need the help of a team of doctors, and possibly a hospital. When you don't rest, you're not just affecting you're physical health, but you're also putting your mental health at risk. Without sleep, you'll be unable to put your thoughts in order, which means that you won't be able to communicate with others, which will lead to you becoming agitated, and that will lead to stress. And stress (or more correctly, "distress") can wreak havoc on your body. We're talking headaches, increased blood pressure, chest pain, heart problems, skin conditions, depression, and anxiety to say the least. So what can we do? Firstly, get up and walk away from your computer. Maybe not, right now. But the next time you get a chance to do so: do it. Take a walk, preferably outside; and if you really must have a coffee, walk to the next coffee shop along - the extra time in the fresh air will really help you. Spend time away from a computer of phone screen, as little as 15 minutes for every 45 will really help. Walk over to the water cooler and have a chat with someone while you get a cup of water. And if you don't have a water cooler, figure out another place to go and to be social - some companies have breakout rooms for this purpose. But what about outside of work? It's so easy to get trapped in a cycle of: Wake up Commute to work Only leave the desk to go to the bathroom or get lunch Commute home Spend all evening working on some personal projects, or staring at your phone So let's use the Japanese idea of Kaizen (which means "improvement") to break that, little by little. I've taken up running in an evening (well, it's more like jogging, because I'm so out of shape). I'll occasionally call my brother and talk with him about everything and nothing, or we'll talk about video games for hours. I attend a number of meetups which are not even remotely to technology related. By spending time away from computer screens and talking to folks, I've found that I feel more balanced, and rested. Remember: we're social beings. But the number one, most important thing, is sleep. And that can be hard to achieve when you're so used to sitting in front of a bright screen for hours. Our brains are tuned to think that bright light equals day time, so when we're surrounded by unnatural, bright lights, we tend to stay awake for longer. Which is why it's sometimes hard to sleep if you end up using a computer, tablet, or mobile phone before you go to bed. Fixing this is super easy: just don't spend all day and night sitting in front of a bright screen. Give yourself a cut off point, say 30 minutes before bed, and don't use a computer, tablet or phone during that period. But if you have to use your computer or phone during that window, know that the white light emitted by these screens contains harsh blue hues, which will make your brain think that it's day time. So just don't use them. Or, if you have to use them, look for apps similar to f.lux, or Red Moon if you're an Android user, or if you use iOS devices then you can use a combination of NightShift and True Tone. What About You Jamie? I occasionally get insomnia, and when it strikes I have a number of ways to rest even when I can't seem to sleep. The very first thing that I do is make myself a cup of chamomile tea. I've always found that it chills me out, and it can really help me to rest. This might not work for everyone, but the combination of a hot drink without caffeine before bed really helps me. You know how some people like to have a cup of hot cocoa before bed? It's the same thing. Then I try to focus on not ruminating on anything - this is the medical term for when you can't sleep because you're thinking about that bug you've been trying to recreate for 3 days. It's hard to do make these thoughts just go away, but just try to put it out of your mind. Thinking about things like this when you're meant to be sleeping isn't going to help you sleep. Trust me. The next thing that I do - and this isn't going to be to everyone's tastes, so feel free to skip over this one - is I practise mindfulness meditation. It sounds unintuitive, but focusing my attention on the breath seems to really help me to relax, which helps lead to me feeling super tired. Again, this isn't going to be to everyone's tastes. I also subscribe to a number of podcasts specifically designed to help me sleep (obviously, Weekly Dev Tips is not one of these podcasts). I used to do this with audio books, especially technical books where the reader doesn't really emphasise any particular parts of the story, but I've since found a number of podcasts which are designed to help you sleep. Sleep With Me is one of my favourite ones. I simply start an episode playing through my phone (at a low volume obviously), lay in bed and close my eyes. Some people that I've talked to about this have said that the sound white noise, or the sound of rainfall can produce a similar effect. In Summary You need to find a way to get rest which works for you. After all, you need good quality rest in order to be productive, NOT the other way around. You cannot be productive without being well rested, and no matter which way you look at it, developers need to be productive. One last thing before I go: take a look into circadian rhythm (I've probably mispronounced that completely). The tl;dr (or too long; didn't read) is that we have a certain number of states when we sleep: light sleep, deep sleep, and REM sleep. The deeper your sleeping state is when you wake up, the more groggy you'll feel when you do wake up. There are apps that you can get which will attempt to measure which sleep cycle you are in, and try to wake you while in a light sleep cycle as your alarm time approaches. This can leave you feeling less groggy, and less like you need that first cup of coffee in the morning. Now, I'd like for you all to get some good quality rest.

We recently had the opportunity to talk with Stephanie Caldwell, a seasoned Chamber of Commerce executive about Ventura and her vision for Main Street. Stephanie understands the small town nature of Ventura and the high percentage of mom and pop businesses. She's also got a lot to say about Growth vs. No Growth conversations and how they affect Ventura. Stephanie came to Ventura from The San Jose Silicon Valley Chamber of Commerce three years ago, where she was the Chief Operating Officer. Stephanie says there are five main areas of focus: Economic Development, Networking and Visibility, Community Building (especially for non-profits), Advocacy and Political Action, especially as it relates to her board. We mention the board, as one of our sponsors, Greg Van Ness; also a guest on the podcast is Vice-Chair of Governmental Affairs at the Chamber. Ventura has a vibrant startup scene as well, and she quoted another 805conversations guest and Board Chair of the Chamber, John Silva, who said, "Joining the Chamber is one of the best ways to grow your business." Our conversation also touched on the Thomas Fire and the impact it had on an already tight housing marketing. With only 2% availability (much like most of the communities in the 805) it's a challenge when, as a business, you're trying to attract talent from outside the region. Her mantra is in three areas: attract, retain and grow. She's also not blind to the changing economy, and the impact technology has on brick and mortar businesses, especially the sharing economy. She's also recognized a generational shift in membership and is excited about the Young Professionals Group and their positive impact on the organization. Stephanie says the most significant ongoing challenge is communications and how to bridge the growth vs. no growth politics.

John Silva is the President and Senior Creative Director of DuPuis Group, based in Ventura, California. They work on branding, innovation and have created several ventures in conjunction with their clients' brands. John is a veteran with 25 years experience of creative problem-solving. The central theme of our conversation was around a shift in what branding is today and the brand-consumer relationship. We learned some key aspects of how he approaches problems. Specifically using brand values to connect trends and culture to business goals and strategy. A major takeaway from this conversation was that people buy values, not value (made us think about having a Values in addition to an About page on the website). John also suggests that the best brands are willing to polarize! There are plenty of pearls in this episode; you'll want to have a pen handy to take notes and feel free to share the show with a friend who's struggling with brand identity and purpose. We predict that this episode that will become required listening in marketing classes.
