Nakoma was platted in 1915 as a picturesque suburb in the country with winding roads, its own water system, its own private bus service and substantial lands set aside for parks, tennis courts and a golf course. To make this new suburb more appealing to families, the developers even replaced the old schoolhouse with a new grade school in 1917 and built the Nakoma Country Club in 1921. It was one of the most prestigious neighborhood's of its time as it is today. Some of the finest examples of Colonial, Greek, Tudor Revival, French Provincial, and Prairie style homes are located in Nakoma.

On balance, the talk of a gun lobby smokescreen is fair. Examine the NRA's arguments more closely, and Mr LaPierre demolishes his own suggestions even as he makes them. In a ferocious speech to supporters in Salt Lake City on February 23rd, he predicted that criminal records and the mentally incompetent would "never" be part of a background check system, which was really aimed at "one thing—registering your guns".

“(Trump) left me with questions about his moral center and his foundational beliefs. ... His comments reveal no foundation in Christ, which is a big deal,” evangelical conservative activist Sam Clovis said in an email just 35 days before he quit his job as Republican Rick Perry’s Iowa chairman and signed on with Trump’s campaign.
In the emails, shared by Perry backers Wednesday with The Des Moines Register, Clovis castigated Trump for his past liberal positions and admission that he has never asked for God’s forgiveness for any wrongdoing.
The tough words come as Walker is trying to show more spark to energize his presidential campaign. They also come after Walker had previously praised Chinese President Xi Jinping following a trade mission Walker led to China in 2013 designed to increase Wisconsin exports to the country.
Walker said at the Iowa Agriculture Summit in March that he was honored to have met with the Chinese leader along with Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad, noting that they were two of the first American elected officials to have such a meeting.
Science Club (4); Hi-Y (2); Bookkeeping Club (2, 3); Carnival (3).
Walker's position could potentially hurt him with agribusiness interests in Iowa, which is a central focus of Walker's presidential campaign strategy.
Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad and Xi are longtime friends, with a unique relationship nurtured over 30 years and strengthened by several high-profile meetings in recent years.
He then traveled to South Carolina, where he held a meet-and-greet at Sun City Carolina Lakes in Fort Mill and the Carolina Pregnancy Center in Spartanburg.
A few residents held signs outside of City Hall slamming the tax, while at least two women wearing Americans for Prosperity gear sat in the back during the vote. Americans for Prosperity is a national conservative advocacy group that has become more involved in local disputes in recent years.
Guided by patron surveys, administrators tossed out traditional methods of library organization, turning to retail design and merchandising for inspiration. They now group books by areas of interest, combining fiction and nonfiction; they display books face-out to catch the eye of browsers; and they train staff members in marketing and customer service techniques.
Crisis pregnancy centers, or CPCs, are nonprofit organizations that counsel pregnant women against having abortions and promote abstinence instead of safe sex. Most CPCs are not medically licensed, but the ones that are sometimes offer services like pregnancy testing.
CPCs have been criticized for giving medically inaccurate information about the effectiveness and risks associated with birth control and abortion.
Although there are certainly elements to Trump’s TV persona that can be found in his actual leadership style, an examination of the components that make up his leadership style will reveal that there’s a little more to the man than The Apprentice:
Now a Buffalo maternity ward is dealing with a different kind of blizzard. Officials at Mercy Hospital told the Associated Press they’ve seen a “mini baby boom,” as the AP described it, almost exactly nine months after the “Snowvember” storm.
You know, those nine months.
“Nowhere to go, nothing to do,” new parents Jason and Stephanie Brueggeman said of those chilly November days. Their daughter Grace Elizabeth was born this week, slightly ahead of the storm-induced rush.
The changing answers come as Walker's standing in polls -- particularly in Iowa, which his campaign regards as crucial to his chances of winning the GOP nomination -- has been hurt by the rise of Trump and other outsider candidates, like retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson and former Hewlett-Packard executive Carly Fiorina.
Walker has made an effort to play up his status as an outsider -- a politician who came up through Milwaukee and Wisconsin politics, with no ties to Washington.
Following this trip, Walker will have visited 25 Iowa counties on his goal to complete a "Full Grassley," according to a press release from the Walker.
