Presidential policy shifts to cabinet recommendations for appointments
President Cleveland has adopted a policy of accepting cabinet officers recommendations for appointments within their departments. The move ends his personal merit review of each candidate and shifts influence to cabinet heads, with Congressmen and politicians seeking endorsements. The arrangement reduces direct appeals to the president, while maintaining congressional access on public business.

The World's Oldest Rosebush in Hildersheim
The oldest rosebush in the world sits in Hildersheim, Hanover. Planted over 1,000 years ago by Charlemagne to honor an envoy of Caliph al Rashid, it later had a cathedral built above it. A coffin vault was built around its roots in 818, withstanding a 1145 cathedral fire. Today the bush stands twenty six feet high, spans thirty two feet of wall, yet the stem remains about two inches thick after millennia.
