Dear Habermas Sites:
Here's the material we've been working on daily, in reverse chronological order, with jeanne's (webmistress) brief explanations of what she's changed or added and why. From the comments you can eavesdrop on how Susan and jeanne are adapting their universities' projects in research and evidence-based understanding of complex social and economic justice issues to a much broader project of community-building through evidence-based discussions on issues. All teachers are welcome to use our materials, free, as explained under our Creative Commons License.

Added note to myself on mission and goals. jeanne- jcls3803.htm
Still working on story. jeanne- revfilelistaj.htm
Revised file list makes better sense than new file list. I'm revising the site by picking up old files, checking their links, and then adding new stuff. This may become file list when the restructuring is completed, but that could take a while. jeanne- revfilelistkz.htm

Straight lines give way to wavy lines, which begin to look like curtains on a stage.- ghostguy04.gif
Not a bady idea. Could our ghost do Shakespeare?- jcls3803.htm

Image of Benjamin Franklin prepared for notes.- siteadd.htm

Could Sugar Puss with curving whiskers do Shakespeare?

Butterfly and Buscaglia. This is the running butterfly done in free form crochet, chasing Sugar Puss, who is on his way out of there, with Buscaglia and his unicorns as the wallpaper. The story goes with this image in jcls3803.htm, the file I accidentally erased. No way am I tired. Hope you got some rest, Susan. jeanne- default.htm
Screwed up and lost the story from jcls3803.htm, and tonight default is telling me it doesn't exist. Sure, it doesn't. This is definitely not my day, Susan. Hope you and Elise did better. jeanne- tools08.gif
Summer Fun for Adults Only by the Pool - same drawing as tools 14.- tools14.gif
Bright pastel drawing of Tools from Paint drawing. Most problems fixed. same drawing as tools14.gif- tools15.gif
Bright summer colors from same drawing as tools14.gif, Summer Fun in the Pool.- tools17.gif
Same as ball player catching an ALMOST homerun, but in neon-like colors looks like a giant bug walking on two feet.- tools18.gif
Coloring I actually wanted for the ball player catching an ALMOST homerun.- tools19.gif
Puzzle of ball player catching an ALMOST homerun.

Needs some cleanup because I've changed the templates since it was created. jeanne- butflynbusc13.jpg
Kept working on this image. Would love to have some real art software, but this will have to do for now. Buscaglia is the balance to Habermas' view of governance discourse. Granted I have had little experience of first-rate schools, but I sense that Buscaglia's love and respect for the special education children he specialized in makes all the difference for most of us. My theory is that adding Buscaglia's humanity and love of the Other to Hirschman's sense of evidence-based reasoned argument on issues,, might just get us to the public-sphere governance discourse Habermas and so many of us sought. jeanne- catsrcunfiled01.htm
Added The American Prospect.- default.htm
Kept working on it. And put Butterfly Chasing Cat as home page image with Leo Buscaglia as the background. Bobby Christie always insisted that pictures made the work seem less professional. Lucky me, I'm retired, so I don't have to meet Bobby's standards for "looking" professional anymore. jeanne- fileindxaj.htm
Need to merge this index for CATS with the newfilelist01.htm. Tomorrow, tomorrow. jeanne- jcls3803.htm
Finished up the story of the image on this weekly file. jeanne- jcls3804.htm
This is now really jcls3803.htm. But I'll need to double check all this. jeanne- jcls3805.htm
This now contains the Allan Knox piece, and 3802 has the chicken fear piece. jeanne- jcls380x.htm
Turned 380x into 3803 and stopped keeping them together. I'll have to go back and put what's changed on 3803 into 380x as the template. Did some of this already, but too many files!!! jeanne- newfilelist01.htm
Added artandfear0001.htm today.- newimggal01.htm
Neglected to add today's images. Tomorrow, tomorrow. jeanne- shhh03.jpg
Moved the Shhh! image to jcls3804 now. Allan Knox's piece is at 3805 for now. jeanne- shhh05.jpg
Finished the image for Paul Revere and the 4th of july. jeanne- siteadd.htm
Updating.- sugplsorry01.jpg
Sugar Plum leaving the page, saying Sorry, . . .[but time to go]. Added this to the butterfly running that I did somewhere in the last 6 months, and made it intoRunning Butterfly Chasing Cat. Took me a while, but I really gotta get some art software. This I used for the Home Page because it brings Leo Buscaglia, Bakhtin and Habermas together to fit my theory of how we gotta have them all to realize Habermas' vision of a world in which we don't need to kill one another over our perceived and alleged differences. jeanne
- butflychasngcat02.jpgButterfly chasing cat (Sugar Plum) - leading to Leo Bucaglia's "I just want to know, do you believe in unicorns? - believing in unicorns will lead to believing in the Other (Bakhtin and Maria Pia Lara) which involves listening to the Other in Sartrian "good faith." jeanne
- default.htm
Kept working on it. And put Butterfly Chasing Cat as home page image. I've always missed having one, but never figured out what to do about it. Anyhow, I'm much happier when I get to make pictures. Keeps me from complaining that I have to read all this stuff on finance, my least-loved field. jeanne- jcls3804.htm
Turned jcls380x template into official jcls3804 for Week of June 12, because I have an irresistible need to get the site back up. jeanne- jcls3805.htm
Created a quasi-official jcls3805 for Week of June 19, in hopes that we're that near to having an operable site again. jeanne- jcls380x.htm
Turned 380x into 3804 and stopped keeping them together. I'll have to go back and put what's changed on 3804 into 380x as the template. jeanne- newfilelist01.htm

Moved the Shhh! image to jcls3805, hoping to make it into another issue next week. We'll see. jeanne- siteadd.htm

Separating the default template from the weekly template. Not completely OK yet, and I still haven't got Mission and About Us updated. Working on it. jeanne- jcls3805.htm
This is where I moved Allan K.'s granddaughter to. Need to finish the story, once I have the basic sites ready to go. jeanne- jcls380x.htm
Worked on creating template for weekly issue. Still need to break template up into relevant parts so we don't have to do it all at once if we don't want to. jeanne- shhh03.jpg
Image of, well, basically, I'm not sure. I'm going to use it on the home page for now. There's a ghost. There's lots of color. There's the colors of July 4, but submerged in happy colors and strange shapes. The only creature, who could be a ghost with just a twitch of modification, says "Shhh!" Now, I wonder what that could mean. Not "Boo!", but "Shhh!" Interesting, hmmm? jeanne- sugplsorry01.jpg

- American Dream flag print. For flag set. jeanne
- catsrcunfiled0001.htm
Added pattern from Interweave Press. Delightful little needle caps that could also serve other purposes: knitting needle caps knitted, by Ann Budd. . On site copy: Mine was free, but Interweave Press was using it to advertise their own products. Get a copy directly from Interweave press. They're cute and would make cute tassels for the kids. Should use my sock pattern that way, too. jeanneQR-3D QR-3D codes entry form for textile exhibit. Susan, check it out. I'd like to enter us to include CATS who CROCHET for the exhibit. jeanne
