The Hawaiian Gazette building in 1880s Meanwhile, the Gazette business had grown to the point where a new building was built in 1881, and offices moved there in 1882, next door to the original Advertiser building, which was in turn next to the original post office. This block of the street was sometimes called "printers row". While working in the stationery store on the ground floor, Whitney could not resist the urge to publish. He posted a one-page Marine Bulletin on the store window with news that quickly became popular. After John Kapena resigned to become minister of foreign affairs, Whitney was again appointed postmaster general on February 16, 1883 (although by this time there was more than one post office).
Early the next morning in Franklin, Arkansas, very heavy rain forced the Sugar Creek and Youngs Creek out of their banks, necessitating evacuation of 45 to 50 families and causing damage to household furnishings, some commercial establishments, warehouses, and basements, closed the main highway in town, and undermined some sections of pavement. Straight-line winds on November 16 destroyed a cinder block house in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, injuring three while five others were injured in Chicago due to winds breaking out a store window. Chicago also saw broken trees, downed power lines, and more shattered windows. The storm system transitioned when it got into Iowa on November 15, producing blizzard conditions in Wisconsin while also generating snow and high winds over Iowa, Michigan and New York.
Cam goes with Mitchell but when Mitchell has his massage, he leaves to go to the pool party of Langham and Tim and gets back in time so Mitchell won't notice his absence.

However, by working part-time as a tutor, retail-store window decorator and other odd jobs, he was able to educate himself and attended the Sorbonne in Paris where he studied literature. He received his doctorate from the University of Vienna in 1934.Horowitz, D., "The Birth of a Salesman: Ernest Dichter and the Objects of Desire," Horowitz, 1986; also available as an unpublished paper at unpublished paper, available at Hagley Museum, After graduating, he gained some experience in market research working for the Psychoeconomic Institute in Vienna where he was part of a team that carried out research into the milk-drinking habits of the Viennese; a project where he was exposed to depth interviews for the first time. In 1934, he married Hedy Langfelder, a concert pianist and piano teacher.
In "The Teddy Bear Song," the female protagonist expresses such dismay over poor choices in her life—most notably, a just-ended emotional love affair that ended badly—that she'd rather revert to the innocence of a department store- window teddy bear, as spoken in the song's main tag line, "I wish I was a teddy bear ..." . The song's lyrics depict the carefree, simple existence of the teddy bear she wishes she were: not having to dream, cry or express other emotion (except for a sweetly voiced "Hi, I'm Teddy. Ain't it a lovely day?" programmed on a pull string-activated voice chip), have regrets or feel sorry for herself. "The Teddy Bear Song" was the first in a series of Fairchild songs where childhood themes were used to express dismay over broken relationships and the male-dominated hierarchy of traditional relationships.

However, when an AT&T; lawyer saw one in a store window, the company decided to sue on the grounds anything attached to a phone could damage its network. AT&T;, citing the Communications Act of 1934, which stated in part that the company had the right to make changes and dictate "the classifications, practices, and regulations affecting such charges," claimed the right to "forbid attachment to the telephone of any device 'not furnished by the telephone company.'" Initially, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ruled in AT&T;'s favor. It found that the device was a "foreign attachment" subject to AT&T; control and that unrestricted use of the device could, in the commission's opinion, result in a general deterioration of the quality of telephone service"Phone Company Upheld in Ban on Hush-A-Phone," The New York Times, February 17, 1951, p. 29.
In the season opener, "Audition", Puck is interviewed by blogger Jacob Ben Israel (Josh Sussman) and reveals that he had a vasectomy over the summer, saying it was the only responsible thing to do. Soon after the school year begins, Puck is arrested and sent to a juvenile detention center for driving his mother's car through a convenience store window and driving off with the ATM. He returns in "Never Been Kissed", but he is now on probation and helps Artie out in an attempt to satisfy his community service, although this is only initially because Puck claimed he was "helping a crip" and they misunderstood him. Though he acts tougher than ever to his classmates, Puck eventually confesses to Artie that he was terrified in juvie, and the two come to the agreement that Artie will tutor Puck, who has to pick up garbage to fulfill his community service requirements.
His subjects include pedestrians crossing a street viewed from below knee level, a motorcycle hoisted aboard a ship that seems to be flying through the air, or a fisherman whose amiable smile appears to be squeezed between his Gallic moustache and the beret jammed on his head. He also captured passers-by that look like Lilliputians in front of a giant advertisement for the Galeries Lafayette, people seen from the back as they are looking from a bridge on the Seine which is not visible in the picture, or an odd and playful accumulation of pipes, wigs, hot-water bottles in a store window. Latour was artistic kin to other street poets like Robert Doisneau, Willy Ronis and Edouard Boubat. His keen and mobile eye sought new angles, from above or from below: a bird's-eye view of a bottle of wine and a slice of bread transforms the latter into an original still life.
Troubled psychotherapist Peter Bower suffers from nightmares and eerie visions ever since the death of his daughter Evie in a street accident a year earlier, which he blames himself for after he was briefly distracted by something in a store window and failed to notice her veer off the sidewalk. His wife Carol suffers extreme depression and rarely gets out of bed while he works in his practice, meeting some clients referred to him by his mentor, Duncan. One client, Felix, apparently suffers from anterograde amnesia, believing that it is still the 80s; another, Erica, talks of her suicidal thoughts, but finds herself unable to commit suicide; and another, Elizabeth Valentine, is a girl who is apparently mute and who reacts with fear to the sound of the train passing by Peter's office, and before she flees, she writes a series of numbers on one of Peter's notepads: 12787. Elizabeth returns unexpectedly, and Peter finds her looking out of his window to where the train will pass.
In October 1979, Crown American, a developer and owner of hotels and shopping malls, purchased the Hess's chain, then 17 stores large, as a wholly owned subsidiary. Under Crown American's leadership, Hess's enjoyed the booming retail market of the 1980s and expanded to 76 stores by 1990. However, a number of cost-cutting measures had been made following the transfer of the chain to Berman and Crown American, including abandoning most of Hess's previous practices such as the flower/fashion shows and celebrity appearances. The store's outside windows in the main Allentown store were covered up after their annual holiday window decoration displays were ended, along with the regular store window dressing displays of merchandise. In addition to opening stores in available locations, Hess's purchased other department store chains and converted them to the Hess's nameplate, such as Penn Traffic Department Stores, based in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, in 1981, and Rices Nachmans, based in Virginia Beach, Virginia, in 1985.

From 1955 to 1965, White, using the stage name Pogo Poge, was a popular radio DJ at KIMN AM 950 in Denver, hosting the "Coca-Cola Hi-Fi Club" popular with teens and has been described in a 1984 Denver Post column as "Denver’s favorite disc jockey ever". There are conflicting reports about the stage name - whether he hopped a pogo stick from Denver to Boulder or in Utah, but he also embarked on various other more outrageous promotional stunts: sitting atop a flagpole at a used car lot for days, record for sitting on a Ferris Wheel, broadcasting from a snake pit in a Zale's Jewelers store window for two weeks. KIMN was admitted to the Colorado Music Hall of Fame in September 2012. White left Denver for Hawaii and continued working as a DJ at radio station KGMB, also under the stage name Pogo Poge, becoming the #1 mid-day DJ. White is best known to a generation of Hawaii viewers as Pogo in the locally produced Checkers & Pogo show, which ran from 1967 to 1982 and was produced by KGMB/Honolulu.
Murch was born and grew up in Toronto, Ontario, the son of Clara Louise (Tandy) and Walter Murch. He attended the Ontario College of Art in the mid-1920s, studying under Arthur Lismer, a member of the Group of Seven, a group of Impressionist to Post-Impressionist painters mostly active from 1910 to 1940. Murch moved to New York City in 1927 and studied at the Art Students League of New York under Kenneth Hayes Miller and later, with Arshile Gorky at the Grand Central School of Art. In 1929 he married Katharine Scott, and from then until 1950 Murch supported himself and his family through a number of jobs on the fringes of the art world including department-store window design, book illustration, restaurant murals, freelance illustrations (notably covers for the magazines Fortune and Scientific American) and advertising commissions while he continued painting and studying contemporary art. In 1941 Betty Parsons presented Murch's first one-man exhibition at the Wakefield Gallery in New York City. When Parsons established her own gallery in the mid-1940s, Murch moved with her, mounting one-man shows every two years until his death in 1967.
