life:
On this day in 1948 Gandhi was assassinated in New Delhi by a Hindu fanatic.
In a career spanning more than two decades, photographer Margaret Bourke-White fearlessly documented many facets of the human experience. Her astonishing portfolio ranged from trailblazing assignments in the Soviet Union in the late 1920s, to capturing the horrors of the Buchenwald concentration camp upon its liberation in 1945. And Bourke-White’s focus on humanitarian issues — showcased in these stunning images of Mohandas Gandhi in India — was equally renowned.
Pictured here in 1946, the leader sits next to a spinning wheel, a device used to make yarn or thread; the image came to symbolize Indian self sufficiency — and thus independence from British rule.

Battle of Seattle, January 26, 1856
Emily Inez Denny was the eldest child of early settler David Denny and his wife, Louisa Boren Denny. She was born in 1853, two years after her parents landed at Alki. During her life, Denny painted and drew many scenes of Seattle’s early history. One of her many paintings showed the Battle of Seattle which took place on January 26, 1856.
This photo of Emily Inez Denny’s painting shows Seattle’s white settlers running to safety in the city’s blockhouse. The ship “Decatur” sits offshore in Elliott Bay, helping to protect the settlers from a threatened Indian attack. Denny was only three years old at the time of the battle, and was carried into the fort in her mother’s arms.
Original painting by Emily Inez Denny.
Photographer: Howard Giske
Date of Painting Subject: January 26th, 1856

Never mind that Santorum … scowls as if he’s running for Militant Pope, not president; the point is that he’s steadfast, a family-values fence post with no hint of nookie on the side, and a road warrior who has put in the mileage in Iowa, unlike some of his opponents, who do their campaigning from the set of Fox News. However, he’s absolutely no fun whatsoever, and Republicans have developed such an appetite for absurdism that they may not be happy with anything less than the windswept return of Donald Trump.
