Foxconn's Terry Gou visits Milwaukee after Trump tells him to 'bring more jobs to Wisconsin'. (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 12/7/2019)
Foxconn is building a million-square-foot structure that is to house a flat-screen factory, and recently filed plans for a 261,000-square-foot “smart manufacturing center,” and a computing data center that would include a 98-foot-high glass dome. A 120,000-square-foot multipurpose building was completed about a year ago.
Keep in mind that Gou is no longer chairman of Foxconn, "but still has a hand in company affairs" -- whatever that means -- according to J-S reporting.
"Rinky Dink", an instrumental by Dave 'Baby' Cortez, one of two of his singles to reach the top 10, debuted at #97 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week ending July 14, 1962. It spent 14 weeks on the chart, peaking at #10.
According to Merriam-Webster, the first known use of 'rinky-dink' occurred in 1913.
Other coinages from the same year include:
- blooey
- comfort station
- efficiency expert
- lunatic fringe
- roadblock
- sob story
- stooge
- wettability
