    1 Robert Kennedy’s Final Day June 4, 1968 —Edward Sanders (Note from author: I’m working on a book-length poem about Robert Kennedy and invite anyone with new and accurate information to send it to me.) The Malibu Surf The ocean at Malibu churned in the fog the morning of the win where Robert and Ethel lay sleeping in a house overlooking the ceaseless peace of the beach. A brief night striving to restore his vim in the tiredness of nearly nonstop plane rides, motorcades, rallies, speeches, chatting with the press, phone calls, staff meetings, & other body-bashing stresses in an “On the Eve” set of hours before the sea-like pressure of Time bore him forward to further contests for delegates such as the New York primary two weeks ahead & a convention in Chicago. The struggle for delegates was still a trianglulation of Kennedy McCarthy Humphrey 2 McCarthy was not about to drop out especially with his strength among New York’s antiwar activists It was a strange equation: the big city bosses and state chairs clutched many a delegate to their chests Mayor Richard Daley of Chicago, for instance had a batch of clout & RFK, after California was going to have to convince Mr. Daley, & others that Humphrey was not the anointed The Daunting Flow of Primaries RFK Faced May-June 1968 After his announcement in mid-March he entered the first possible primaries He missed the March 12 primary in New Hampshire, & Wisconsin’s April 2 but then won five out of the next six winner-take-all contests: May 7, Indiana and District of Columbia May 14, Nebraska May

    ARAB TIMES, TUESDAY, AUGUST 31, 2021 INTERNATIONAL 6 Weather ‘At least one dead’ Ida traps Louisianans, leaves grid in disarray NEW ORLEANS, Aug 30, (AP): Rescue work- ers set out in hundreds of boats and helicopters to reach people trapped by fl oodwaters and utility crews mobilized Monday after a furious Hurricane Ida swamped the Louisiana coast and shattered a large swath of the state’s electrical grid in the sweltering, late-summer heat. One of the most powerful hurricanes ever to hit the U.S. mainland weakened into a tropical storm overnight as it pushed in- land over Mississippi with torrential rain and shrieking winds, its danger far from over. Ida was blamed for at least one death - someone hit by a falling tree outside Baton Rouge - but with many roads impassable and cellphone service knocked out in places, the full extent Edwards of its fury was still coming into focus. All of New Orleans lost power right around sunset Sunday as the hurricane blew ashore on the 16th anniversary of Katrina, leading to an uneasy night of pouring rain and howling wind. The weather died down shortly before dawn, and people began carefully walking around neigh- borhoods with fl ashlights, dodging downed light poles, pieces of roofs and branches. “I had a long miserable night,” said Chris At- kins, who was in his New Orleans home when he heard a “kaboom” and all the sheetrock in the liv- Traffi c diverts around downed power lines Monday, Aug 30, 2021, in Metairie, La.

  • Popular Senior Year
    Popular: Senior Year “Quadrangle” by The Wild Pikachu POPULAR: SENIOR YEAR QUADRANGLE TEASER FADE IN: INT. KENNEDY HIGH OFFICE - NIGHT Actually, early morning. Even the janitorial staff has gone. But someone has bypassed the alarm system and gained access to the office. This room, like the others, is dark——except for the glow from a single computer monitor. Bathed in the glow of the monitor are two figures: one sitting at the computer, the other standing behind, watching. One of these intruders, the one working the computer, happens to be a stereotypical 12-year-old geek named Delbert, who comes complete with wire-rimmed glasses, awful plaid shirt and pocket protector. DELBERT (hushed) Wow——this is so cool. Getting to hack into a high school system... You don't see dinosaurs like this everyday. As he's talking, he's tapping the keys furiously. Now he finishes with a flourish. With a grin, he twists his head around and up to look at his companion. DELBERT (CONT'D) There you go——the master grade file. The other intruder——Sam——leans down and nods. DELBERT (CONT'D) We just type in your name, and—— But Sam shakes her head, holding out her hand to stop him. DELBERT (CONT'D) (confused) Isn’t that what you want? Jack up your GPA with some easy A's? Instead of answering, Sam reaches for the keyboard herself. (CONTINUED) 2. CONTINUED: INSERT: THE COMPUTER SCREEN As it echoes her input: MCQUEEN, BROOKE. An instant later Brooke's grades appear. As Sam continues to work the keyboard, the highlighted cursor moves across the screen, and the letter grades change one by one, A's and B's becoming C's, D's and F's.
