Postmark. Lake Worth, Fla. Jan 21, 1954 at 5 PM Sent to: Mr. & Mrs. Frank Cooley 6 Elwell St. Seneca Falls, NY Message: We all enjoyed your letter very much & also the news therein. It's wonderfully warm here & I'm really thawed out for once. Had my hair cut this noon and fell better not to have it full of snarls as it was for 2 days with the wind & salt in it. Love Louise & Jim
You'll find a photo of Frank here.
About one-fifth of the city's water pipes were installed before 1931 and nearly all will reach the end of their useful lives in the next 15 years. They are responsible for close to half of all water main leaks, and replacing them is a looming, $1-billion problem for the city.
So Scott Walker's doing it, and he is running away, and these clowns on our side don't even understand it yet. Stop and think. Here's a guy that's won three elections in four years in a blue state. He has neutered the employees union, teachers union. He's got the support of the majority of people in Wisconsin. You would think at Republican headquarters and consultant headquarters they would be eager to find out how he's done it. But instead he's looked as somebody that might upset the applecart. It's gonna boil down to how much money he can get from the donor class.
After seeing his support tumble in recent presidential polls, Walker sought a favorable contrast with his GOP rivals by emphasizing his contention that he has a more detailed plan for the presidency.
That plan, Walker said, involves bringing the same upheaval to the nation’s capital that he brought to Wisconsin’s. [emphasis added]
“We’ve got a plan to wreak havoc on Washington, and our plan starts on day one,” Walker told a crowd of more than 150.
By all accounts, Kewaunee was performing well and was prepared to operate another 20 years after the Nuclear Regulatory Commissionrenewed its license several years ago.
What doomed Kewaunee was the low price of natural gas in the wholesale power market, just at the time the Wisconsin utilities that bought power from Kewaunee were in negotiations to renew long-term power purchase deals. Both utilities are turning instead to natural gas power plants.
In laying out how states could pursue emission reduction strategies, the EPA stressed flexibility, Meier said. The agency also set a less difficult target to reach for those states that rely most heavily on coal. Wisconsin's goal was the 15th most lenient in the country, he said.
Walker said he did the same thing when he changed Wisconsin’s collective bargaining laws early in his first term as governor. He promised similar action with federal employees if he becomes president.
“You can pay what you have, you can call whoever you need to call, go to an A.T.M. if you need to, do what you need to do,” Judge Richard A. Diment of Bowdon Municipal Court said to one defendant. “Call friends, call family, call your employer. But until you get $300 here tonight, you won’t be able to leave.” The defendant said she had recently begun working at a supermarket and had $150 with her.
To another defendant, a man who said he had been unemployed for two years and received food stamps, Judge Diment said: “You’re going to have to figure out a way to get this paid, do you understand me? Or you’re going to go to jail. One or the other. You understand?”
"Gov. Walker has always believed marriage is between one man and one woman and has consistently said that states should have the right to define marriage under the Constitution. As president, he will enforce the law, which means also protecting the religious liberty of all Americans." [emphasis added]
"If he were elected president, Governor Walker would work to lower the tax burden, improve take-home pay, and make tax levels competitive for job creators, all with the goal of returning growth to the American economy." [emphasis added]
And Scott Walker himself has been more than happy to talk hypothetically on occasion. Here's as 'as president; statement from a recent Hot Air op-ed piece.
We need to change the tone in America from chants and rallies that fixate on racial division and instead follow the example of the families of the victims of the Charleston shooting, who showed us the best path forward is through unity. As president, that's what I'm going to do to make us a united America once again." [emphasis added]
(1) We need a President who – on the first day in office – will call on Congress to pass a full repeal of ObamaCare.
(2) We need a President who will approve the Keystone pipeline on the very first day in office and then seek to level the playing field for all sources of energy.
Just last week, he added another task to his 1st day in office to-do list.
"If you want a president who is going to wait some time even though they know something is wrong today, then he's probably your candidate. f you want someone who knows today it's a bad deal and is not gonna wait until the folks in Washington tell you it's alright and, who is going to do what’s right immediately on the very first day in office [tearing up the agreement with Iran], then I'm your candidate."
But, no, he can't possibly address the refugee crisis.
Cutting costs in restaurants is nothing new, of course. Eatsa brings to mind automats, the waiter-less restaurants that are a cross between a cafeteria and a vending machine. They are still found in Japan and some parts of Europe. (The last Horn & Hardart automat, in New York, closed in 1991.) Mr. Friedberg says Eatsa goes well beyond that, by using software and supply chain innovation to fundamentally change how a restaurant runs.
Ms. Carne left “Laugh-In” in 1970. [The show ran until 1973.) The sock-it-to-me label had become trying to live with, she said; people would douse her with water on the street.
That year she starred in a Broadway revival of the musical “The Boy Friend,” but her life began spiraling out of control as a drug habit grew worse. She was arrested several times, and as a result she wasn’t being cast as readily as she had been, and her nightclub bookings dried up.
The project is the latest chapter in the life of the building, which was completed in 1894. One of Philadelphia’s first high-rises, it was once home to residents made wealthy by Philadelphia’s manufacturing boom of the early 20th century.
It later became the city’s first racially integrated hotel under the ownership of the eponymous Father Jealous Divine, an African-American spiritual leader who bought the property in 1948.
The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2002 but then gutted by the last owner, leaving the bare brick and timbers that are visible inside today.
The prairie chicken has urgently needed help for some time. Almost a million of them once roamed the coastal prairie of Texas and Louisiana. But by 1919, the birds had disappeared from Louisiana, and in 1967, with only 1,070 left, the chicken, in fact a type of grouse, was listed as endangered.
Since then, its numbers have declined precipitously, despite a vigorous captive breeding program and painstaking efforts to protect young chicks in the wild. In 2002, the yearly count of the birds by the federal Fish and Wildlife Service, which runs the refuge, dipped to 40, an all-time low. This year’s total was 104.
In what would be considered an unusual scheduling decision today, The Tender Trap premiered in New York City on November 4, 1955, at Radio City Music Hall, one day after Guys and Dolls opened. Like Guys and Dolls, The Tender Trap had its provenance on Broadway, where it opened at the Longacre Theater on October 13, 1954, and closed after 102 performances. None of the stage cast appears in the Hollywood version.
Here's an excerpt from Bosley Crowther's movie review in the New York Times.
“I loved to party with the Rat Pack, they were so much fun. All they did was have a good time. We’d get off work at two in the morning and hang out at a club and listen to other performers. I loved Frank Sinatra. If he liked you it was forever, and if he disliked you – I wouldn’t want to be there.
“When we worked together on The Tender Trap I was engaged to marry Eddie Fisher and Frank took me to lunch and said: 'Sweetie, don’t get married. Don’t marry a singer. We’re nice guys but we’re not good husbands.’ But Eddie was a darling boy and at the time I loved him very much. Of course Frank was right.”
During November 1955, Edna and Walter, Mom's sister and her husband, visited us for a few days during a cross-country train trip.

However, the Public Policy poll shows Graham’s presidential campaign has hurt the senator at home, Jensen said, noting Graham’s approval rating has fallen to 36 percent from 54 percent in a February Public Policy poll.
And some Christian conservatives, whose congregations are increasingly filled with immigrants whose first language is not English, said Republicans needed to publicly denounce Mr. Trump’s tactics.

Weeding, reorganizing, and consolidating the archives.
Decisions, decisions. What to do with these 3x5 notecards from 1978, most of them having to do with the growth and development of grocery stores, tourist camps/motels, and the like.
Moving forward from the Eureka speech, Walker will unveil a new "day one promise" every week — things like ending Obama's executive actions, an action he can take without the help of Congress.
Walker will tell his audience in Illinois that the same day he takes the oath of office, Jan. 20, 2017, he would undo President Barack Obama's nuclear deal with Iran and start dismantling Obama's national health care law.
Walker will talk about, in his words, "wreaking havoc" in Washington, D.C., through steps such as renewing enforcement of immigration laws, including ending the practices of so-called sanctuary cities where law enforcement does not focus on verifying immigration status as a routine matter.
