When ancient Greeks, Romans and Persians discovered how comfortable goat skins filled with water were to sleep on, they ushered in a new chapter in beds.

But it wasn&#8217;t until the late 1960s that the modern water bed was made available to the general public. We can thank an enterprising San Francisco State University student named Charles Hall for that.

          <description><![CDATA[
Justice may be blind, but judges usually aren&#8217;t.

   Charlottesville Municipal Court Judge Allan Spitzer could see very well. When a young man approach his bench on Nov. 4, 1965, the World War II veteran didn&#8217;t like what he saw.

Spitzer apparently felt that people entering court should reflect a certain level of personal grooming out of respect for the venerable institution. When 19-year-old Jonathan Gainsbrugh failed to meet the judge&#8217;s standards, it resulted in a legal dustup that grew into a clash of principles.

 In 1570 a printing press in Venice, Italy, began producing a four-volume set of books that would have a profound effect on architecture throughout the Western world.

It was titled &#8220;I Quattro Libri dell&#8217; Architettura,&#8221; which translates in English to &#8220;The Four Books of Architecture.&#8221; The author was Andrea Palladio, who, through his interpretation of classical Greek and Roman architecture, gave the world a style of architecture known as Palladianism.

          <description><![CDATA[
As frame after frame of black-and-white film whirled through the camera, the lens stayed locked on a Volkswagen bug parked at the end of a residential driveway.

Without content, the vehicle was nothing special. But viewers who saw the stark image on their television screens in 1967 knew why the camera lingered on this seemingly innocuous scene.

The car had belonged to Grandville Anthony &#8220;Tony&#8221; Jones, a young Charlottesville soldier killed in action in Vietnam on Dec. 5, 1965. Two years later when the National Education Television network made the documentary film &#8220;Home Front 1967&#8221; the forlorn Volkswagen became one of the program&#8217;s most poignant and powerful images.
