The Washington Times

The Washington Times är en dagstidning som utges i Washington, D.C.. Tidningen grundades 1982 av Familjefederationen för Världsfred och Enighet (Enighetskyrkan), även känd som Moonrörelsen. Tidningen är känd för att vara konservativ i politiska och sociala frågor. Historia The Washington Times grundades 1982 strax efter det att konservativa dagstidningen Washington Star gått i konkurs och konkurrenten Washington Post således var huvudstadens enda morgontidning. En stor del av personalen hämtades från Washington Star. Enighetskyrkans grundare och ledare Sun Myung Moon hade för avsikt att konkurrera med vad han uppfattade vara Washington Posts liberala vinkling och enligt Moons närmaste medhjälpare Bo Hi Pak skulle tidningen "kämpa mot kommunism och stå upp för 'judeo-kristna värderingar'". Huvudägare till tidningen blev medieföretaget News World Communications som ägdes av Enighetskyrkan. Moon höll ett tal vid tidningens tjugoårsfirande där han sade att tidningen var ett instrument för att sprida sanningen om Gud till världen. Tidningskonsulten John Morton menar dock, enligt en artikel i Washington Post, att Moon inte otillbörligt påverkat hur tidningen bedriver sin journalistik. Tidningen har hela tiden gått med förlust; Moon och kyrkan hade 2008 investerat runt 2 miljarder dollar i tidningen men Moon sa då att han hade för avsikt att fortsätta spendera pengar för att hålla tidningen konservativ. 2008 slutade redaktören Wesley Pruden och ersattes av John F. Solomon, tidigare anställd på Associated Press och The Washington Post. En månad senare ändrade tidningen skrivregler i vissa frågor och bytte ut vissa termer för att anpassa sig till ett modernare och mer nedtonat språkbruk. Till exempel skrev man "illegal immigrants" istället för "illegal aliens", "gay" istället för "homosexual", man började referera till Hillary Clinton som "Clinton" istället för "Hillary" och man slutade att använda citattecken för ordet äktenskap (marriage) när det användes i sammanhanget samkönade äktenskap. Dessa förändringar resulterade i kritik från vissa konservativa. 30 november 2009 meddelande Enighetskyrkan att man skulle sluta finansiera tidningen och att den skulle kunna tvingas övergå till internetbaserad publikation. Månaden därpå varslades 40 % av alla anställda och man meddelade att alla prenumerationstjänster skulle upphöra. Därefter la man bland annat ner tidningens söndagsutgåva och sportbilaga. I juli 2010 började ledare från Enighetskyrkan protestera mot tidningens nya inriktning och krävde åter stärkta band mellan kyrkan och tidningen. I augusti samma år nåddes en överenskommelse om att sälja tidningen direkt till en grupp individer med nära band till kyrkan. I november 2010 köpte Sun Myung Moon tillsammans med en grupp tidigare redaktörer Washington Times från News World Communications för en dollar. Källor
Mitchell Park (Washington, D.C.)

Mitchell Park is a public park in Washington, D.C.'s Kalorama Heights neighborhood, in the United States. It includes the Anthony Holmead Archeological Site. Description and history Mitchell Park is in the Kalorama Heights neighborhood of Washington, D.C. It has a fountain, a garden, and an area for dogs. The park has hosted film screenings and other programming. According to Thrillist, "This postage-stamp sized park in the middle of Kalorama is a green square of respite in the otherwise busy neighborhood. After years of decline, the park underwent a major fundraising effort—and archeological dig—before reopening to the public in 2004 as an oasis with nearly 25,000 plantings (trees, shrubs, flowers, etc.). Mitchell Park remains an 'if you know, you know' spot for picnics and peaceful hangs." Town & Country said in 2017, "The annual fund-raiser to benefit the park is the best-attended neighborhood event of the year; this past March it was held at the French ambassador's residence." Reception Valerie Paschall included the park in Curbed's 2013 list of ten "secret or underrated" parks and gardens in Washington, D.C. Paschall recommended Mitchell Park for a dog walk or a picnic and wrote, "Hidden in Kalorama, Mitchell Park is another neighborhood park unfrequented by the masses. With a fountain, a beautiful fenced garden, a play area for canines and small open patch of grass for humans, you can picnic, smell the flowers, or toss a frisbee. Regularly the host of giggling children and watchful parents, the park is well-enjoyed by locals, but never cramped for space."

Brooks Mansion

Brooks Mansion is a Greek Revival plantation house and Category II Landmark owned by the District of Columbia government. It is located at 901 Newton Street, Northeast, Washington, D.C., in the Brookland neighborhood, next to the Brookland–CUA (WMATA station). History The house was built around 1840 by Col. Jehiel Brooks, a veteran of the War of 1812 who married Ann Margaret Queen, daughter of One of the largest landowners in the District of Columbia. After returning from the Red River Indian Agency, they lived on a 246-acre plantation that they dubbed Bellair. In 1887, the house and land were sold to an Ida U. Marshall, who sold to Benjamin F. Leighton and Richard E. Pairo. They subdivided Bellair, and developed the suburb of Brookland. The mansion house and 2 acres were sold to Elizabeth Varney, who operated a boarding house. In 1891, the Marist Brothers bought the Brooks mansion. Three years later, they added a wing to the house. Eventually, they sold the house to the Benedictine Sisters. In 1905, the Benedictine Sisters of Elizabeth, New Jersey moved to the Brooks Mansion. In 1906, they founded St. Anthony's Academy for young children, and operated a shelter for women. In 1911, the Catholic University of America began educating the sisters at the mansion. In 1928, women were admitted to Catholic University of America, and the mansion became St. Anthony's High School. Public ownership In 1970, Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority bought the mansion. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on July 17, 1975. It was bought by the DC government in 1979, and is used by the Public Access Corporation for the District of Columbia (DCTV). It was named as an endangered place by the D.C.

Ministerstvo zemědělství Spojených států amerických

Ministerstvo zemědělství Spojených států (anglicky United States Department of Agriculture, zkráceně USDA) je ministerstvo federální vlády USA odpovědné za formulaci a implementaci federálních zákonů týkajících se zemědělství, lesnictví a potravin. Jeho cílem je uspokojit potřeby zemědělců a chovatelů dobytka, podporovat zemědělský obchod a výrobu, dále zajištění bezpečnosti potravin, ochrana přírodních zdrojů, podpora odlehlých venkovských komunit a boj proti hladu ve Spojených státech a ve světě. Přibližně 80 % rozpočtu USDA ve výši 141 miliard dolarů jde na potravinový program Food and Nutrition Service (FNS). Největší složkou rozpočtu FNS je program doplňkové výživy Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (dříve známý pod názvem Food Stamp program). Tento program poskytuje každý měsíc jídlo více než 40 milionům lidí s nízkými příjmy a bezdomovcům. Dějiny Od počátku založení Spojených států měla americká ekonomika výrazně agrární charakter. V té době úředníci federální vlády usilovali o zlepšení zemědělských výnosů. Hledali v zahraničí nové a vylepšené odrůdy semen, rostlin a zvířat, které by dovezli a patentovali ve Spojených státech. Zemědělská divize patentového úřadu, která za tímto účelem vznikla, se tak stal základem budoucího úřadu zemědělství. V roce 1849 byl patentový úřad převeden pod nově vytvořené ministerstvo vnitra. 15. května 1862 založil Abraham Lincoln nezávislé ministerstvo zemědělství, v jehož čele stál komisař, který nebyl členem prezidentova kabinetu.
