Small Businesses Cheer ‘New Sheriff in Town’ After Climate Pact Exit.  (The New York Times, 6/2/2017)
It's called myopia.  “This just heightens the divide between big business and small business,” said Jeffrey Korzenik, an investment strategist for Fifth Third Bank in Cincinnati who spends much of his time talking to small businesses in the Midwest. “They really have different worldviews.” 

Take Back the House: Florida's 25th Congressional District


Apparently, the DCCC knows something the rest of us don't.

In 2012, two independent candidates, one of whom is listed as VoteforEddie.com (no longer available, if it ever was), challenged the Republican incumbent Mario Diaz-Balart, who then ran unopposed in 2014 and won by a substantial margin in 2016.

Big-margin GOP victories in this district (2000, 2002. 2004, 2010) appear to be over.  Democrat Brad Ashford beat Republican incumbent Lee Terry in 2014 but lost his 2016 re-election bid to Don Bacon by 3,464 votes.  He was considered of the most vulnerable Democrats.

The popularity of 'Edward' as a baby name is graphed here.  We have yet to check 'Roxanne' (sister-in-law).


A modern girl, by the standards of baby names, 'Roxanne' made her first appearance on the chart in 1936 and peaked 18 years later at #158.  From this point, she enjoyed moderate success through the 1980s but then experienced a steep slide during the 1990s.  So far this century, she had made one failed comeback attempt.

'Roxanne' by the Police was released in 1978 and remained in heavy rotation throughout the 1980s.   'Roxanne', the movie starring Steve Martin and Darryl Hannah was released in 1987.   Together, they might have helped 'Roxanne' reach one final peak before a quick exit.

No empathy here: That gasket-blowin' Bob Gannon offers no time to heal



Reported in Committee OKs bills sending more kids to troubled prison,  (WSAW-TV, 5/30/2017)

Similar narratives were unfolding across Milwaukee’s blue-collar neighborhoods. As jobs disappeared, so did many of the dreams that came with them. And just as during the Great Depression, people and their families began to break. 
A half century later, a Journal Sentinel analysis of previously unmined data reveals that many have never healed. 
Instead, poverty, joblessness and the social ills that accompany them deepened progressively within Milwaukee’s urban center, rippled across its 200-plus census tracts, and moved into its suburbs like a slow-motion shock wave. Few other American cities fell as far, as fast and as forcefully.


Pittman-McGee has seen firsthand what an emerging network of public health and neuroscience researchers, community-minded foundations and law enforcement officials now believe: The primary challenge facing Milwaukee and similar high-poverty cities is not one of the usual suspects — education, crime, even the availability of jobs — although all those play a role.  
Instead, it is an epidemic of trauma passed from one generation to another, one neighborhood to the next. 
The perpetuation of trauma has been documented in the families of those who survived the Holocaust, Hiroshima, the Vietnam War and Cambodian genocide. That data has now turned up the same phenomena in families entrenched in poverty, violence and neglect.

      Greetings from Broadway in Los Angeles


      From Retiring Guy's postcard collection

      It took just 9 months to construct the Eastern Columbia Building, just left of center on the postcard.  It opened on September 12, 1930, as the new headquarters of the Eastern Outfitting Company and the Columbia Outfitting Company, furniture and clothing stores.  (Los Angeles Conservancy)

      Since 2006, the building houses 140 luxury condominiums, Eastern Columbia Lofts, a $30 million conversion project that won a 2008 Conservancy Preservation Award.  How luxurious?  This 2-bedroom, 3-bath, 3,320-square-foot unit can be yours for $3,980,000.

      The Texaco Building, at left, was completed in 1927 and known then as the United Artists Building.  A 1300-seat theater occupies the first 3 levels of the 14-story office building and served as the location for many movie premieres in Hollywood's heyday.    The building was converted into a luxury boutique hotel in 2012, at which time the theater was restored for use as a performance and event space.  The project was included among the 2014 Conservancy Preservation Award recipients.  (How luxurious?  Rates for 2 run from $279 for a small room to $1299 for an Ace suite.)
