  • Clinton's Lead Over Dole Now Twenty-Two Percent Among Registered Voters Compared to Seventeen Percent a Month Earlier
    The IEi#arris Pvll THE HARRIS POLL 1996 #42 Wednesday, July 17, 1996 CLINTON'S LEAD OVER DOLE NOW TWENTY-TWO PERCENT AMONG REGISTERED VOTERS COMPARED TO SEVENTEEN PERCENT A MONTH EARLIER by Humphrey Taylor Republican candidate Bob Dole is making absolutely no impression on President Clinton's big poll lead. In the latest Harris Poll, the president's lead is actually wider than it was a month earlier. In mid-June, the president enjoyed a 17- point lead among registered voters; 'the latest poll shows him 22 points ahead. 'These are the results of Harris Poll of 1,005 adults, including 871 people who claim to be registered voters, surveyed between July 9 and 13. There are several different ways of analyzing the results from this new Harris Poll: When the analysis is lirr~itedto registered voters who claim to have voted in 1992, the president's lead widens to 24 points. When those who say they don't expect to vote are eliminated, the president's lead widens to 27 points among all adults and 25 points among registered voters. When Ross Perot is included as a third party candidate he wins the support of 16 percent, after eliminating those who say they would not vote. This number is essentially unchanged since the May and June Harris Polls. Louis Harris and Associates, Inc. 11 1 Fifth Avenue NYC (21 2) 539-9600 i Perot takes votes almost equally from Clinton and Dole, and leaves the president's lead virtually unchanged. When possible Independent party candidate Richard Lamm is included as the third candidate instead of Perot he gets the support of five percent, approximately one-third of Ross Perot's current support.

  • The Washington Post September 16, 1996, Monday No Place for Perot In
    The Washington Post September 16, 1996, Monday No Place for Perot In the Debates David J. Garrow OP-ED; Pg. A19 LENGTH: 672 words The Commission on Presidential Debates is to decide soon whether Reform Party nominee Ross Perot and running mate Pat Choate will be included in the presidential and vice-presidential debates that are scheduled to begin next week. Commission members say their top criterion for inclusion is whether a ticket has a "realistic" chance of winning. By that standard as by others, there ought to be no debate: Neither Ross Perot nor Pat Choate is a realistic -- or even plausible -- president of the United States. Recent national opinion surveys show the Perot-Choate ticket drawing only 5 percent support -- a far cry from the 19 percent that Perot ended up with after his on-and-off campaign in 1992. What's more, monthly polls in crucial states where Perot and Choate's Buchanan-like message of economic protectionism ought to be popular show that Perot's support has been dropping like a stone. In Michigan, Perot's 19 percent backing in July fell to 10 percent in August and to just 4 percent in early September. Indeed, it's hard to envision any state where Perot-Choate could challenge Dole-Kemp or Clinton-Gore even for second place, and there may be some, like Alaska and California, where either Libertarian nominee Harry Browne or Green Party candidate Ralph Nader could outdo Perot for third place. Perot's only hope for a chance at increased voter support is the commission.

Julius E. Pitrap menemukan timbangan komputer pada tahun 1885. Alexander Dey menemukan dial recorder tahun 1888. Herman Hollerith menemukan Electric Tabulating Machine 1989 dan pada tahun yang sama Williard Bundy menemukan alat untuk mengukur waktu kerja karyawan. Pada 16 Juni 1911, teknologi-teknologi tersebut dan perusahaan yang memilikinya digabungkan oleh Charles Ranlett Flint dan membentuk Computing Tabulating Recording Company (CTR). Perusahaan yang berbasis di New York ini memiliki 1.300 karyawan dan area perkantoran serta pabrik di Endicott dan Binghamton, New York; Dayton, Ohio; Detroit, Michigan; Washington, D.C.; dan Toronto, Ontario. CTR memproduksi dan menjual berbagai macam jenis mesin mulai dari timbangan komersial hingga pengukur waktu kerja. Pada tahun 1914, Flint merekrut Thomas J. Watson, Sr., dari National Cash Register Company, untuk membantunya memimpin perusahaan. Watson menciptakan slogan, ―THINK‖, yang segera menjadi mantra bagi karyawan CTR. Dalam waktu 11 bulan setelah bergabung, Watson menjadi presiden dari CTR. Perusahaan memfokuskan diri pada penyediaan solusi penghitungan dalam skala besar untuk bisnis. Selama empat tahun pertama kepemimpinannya, Watson sukses meningkatkan pendapatan hingga lebih dari dua kali lipat dan mencapai $9 juta. Ia juga sukses mengembangkan sayap ke Eropa, Amerika Selatan, Asia, dan Australia. Pada 14 Februari 1924, CTR berganti nama menjadi International Business Machines Corporation (IBM).

BY MOLLY SORGE Attending the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games will be an emotional experience for Akiko Yamazaki – and not only because she hopes her horse, Suppenkasper, will be named to the U.S. Dressage Team with rider Steffen Peters. When Yamazaki sits down in the stands at Equestrian Park at Baji Koen, she’ll be sitting next to her mother, Michiko, who is the person who inspired her love of horses, and her two daughters, who share their passion for riding. My mom attended the Tokyo Olympic Games in 1964 as a spectator,” Yamazaki said. “Now we’ll go to watch the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games at the“ same venue, and hopefully we’ll be watching one of our horses compete. My mother is going to be 79 years old, and she’s really looking forward to going back and watching the Games in Tokyo. We are three generations of riders. It’s coming full circle.” For Yamazaki, who sits on the Board of Trustees and serves as the Secretary of the U.S. Equestrian Team (USET) Foundation, that feeling of legacy is a big part of why she loves equestrian sport so much. Her mother introduced her to riding when she was young, and now Yamazaki’s daughters have not only grown up immersed in the sport but have also developed their own passion for riding.
