    Coast to Coast Ep. 23 - English [00:02:46] Hello, hello and welcome to another episode of Coast to Coast. My name is Raul Moas. I'm the Miami program director here at Knight Foundation. My good friend and colleague Lilly Weinberg has been gracious enough to give us this time and space with you all to have a really great conversation with some stellar folks about what's happening here in South Florida, what's happening in Miami and Miami Tech and beyond the city, beyond the three or five. How does that other communities, other emerging startup and tech ecosystems, can accelerate their own growth in the times that we're living can tap into the trends of the day. And that's really what Coast-to-coast is all about. It's about examining and exploring the trends that are shaping the cities and communities we live in here in the States. And so for today's conversation, I have the distinct pleasure and immense honor of sharing some time with a great friend of mine and the CEO of an invaluable kind of Miami Tech organization called Emerge America's. Felicia, Felicia, welcome. And thank you so much for being here with us today. [00:03:45] Thanks, Rachel. Thanks for having us on the show. It's honored to be close with you. [00:03:49] It's great to be here. Thank you. Could you share with folks a little bit about immerge, its origins, its focus and what it's up to these days? [00:03:57] Sure to emerge.

    Interview with Isaac Mercer # VRK-A-L-2010-054 Interview Date: December 29, 2010 Interviewer: Mark DePue DePue: Today is Wednesday, December 29, 2010. My name is Mark DePue, the Director of Oral History with the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library. I’m here today in Dixon, Illinois with Isaac Mercer. Good morning, Isaac. Mercer: Good morning. How are you? DePue: Good. I’ve been looking forward to doing this interview. We’re getting close to the end of 2010, so I can’t think of a better way to finish off the year than to come up here and chat with you. Isaac is a Korean War veteran, and so this is obviously part of our Veterans Remember program. Isaac, where I always begin is to ask you when and where you were born. Mercer: Metter, Georgia. DePue: Metter, Georgia? Is that how you pronounce it? Mercer: Mm-hmm. DePue: Okay, and when were you born? Mercer: 1927, May 18th. DePue: May 18th. Tell us about growing up in Metter, Georgia. Mercer: Well, I didn’t really grow up. I left Detroit, Michigan, going down to Metter to visit Grandma, and got in to Atlanta, Georgia. My dad always had a good car. So a couple of men—I thought they were firemen then; I didn’t know the difference between a fireman and a policeman. My dad stopped for a stoplight, so they come over and said, “Where you’d get that car, boy?” So they talked to him there for a while, then they yanked him out and took him into the police station for about a half-hour, forty-five minutes, and he came back out.

    1960 TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD by Harper Lee Copyright (C) 1960 by Harper Lee Copyright (C) renewed 1988 by Harper Lee Published by arrangement with McIntosh and Otis, Inc. DEDICATION for Mr. Lee and Alice in consideration of Love & Affection Lawyers, I suppose, were children once. Charles Lamb PART ONE Chapter 1 When he was nearly thirteen, my brother Jem got his arm badly broken at the elbow. When it healed, and Jem’s fears of never being able to play football were assuaged, he was seldom self-conscious about his injury. His left arm was somewhat shorter than his right; when he stood or walked, the back of his hand was at right angles to his body, his thumb parallel to his thigh. He couldn’t have cared less, so long as he could pass and punt. When enough years had gone by to enable us to look back on them, we sometimes discussed the events leading to his accident. I maintain that the Ewells started it all, but Jem, who was four years my senior, said it started long before that. He said it began the summer Dill came to us, when Dill first gave us the idea of making Boo Radley come out. I said if he wanted to take a broad view of the thing, it really began with Andrew Jackson. If General Jackson hadn’t run the Creeks up the creek, Simon Finch would never have paddled up the Alabama, and where would we be if he hadn’t? We were far too old to settle an argument with a fist-fight, so we consulted Atticus.

  • Bleakhouse Review 2008-2009
    Carpool Buddy by Thaïs H. Miller "Ma’am, can I see your license and registration, please?" Officer Li could smell it immediately—through the baby’s screaming, the beeping of Sam’s video game, Matt and Jody’s fight—he could taste it right away. Mrs. Liza Martin’s hands scratched at the glove compartment three times before she finally got it open. Officer Li tapped his boots against the freshly smoothed pavement. Mrs. Martin handed him the papers along with the license. She tried to cover up the picture—it was taken before she got her new chin. Officer Li moved Mrs. Martin’s thumb. "Okay, you want to step out of the car, ma’am." Mrs. Martin stepped out of the giant white mini-van, her carpool children continually yelling at the top of their lungs. She was relieved that she decided against putting her hair in curlers that day. Mrs. Lindsey McArthur slowly drove by and watched as Mrs. Martin put her finger to her nose. "Morning, Liza," Mrs. McArthur said amongst her daughter’s cries, staring at Officer Li’s badge, "morning, Officer." Mrs. Martin groaned as Lindsey drove away. Lindsey would be on time and Mrs. Martin would be late, yet again. Most importantly, Mrs. Martin would miss the beginning of the Room Mothers’ meeting—one in which all of the stay-at-home fathers and soccer-moms would gather together plotting the latest President’s Day celebration and Halloween bash. She knew what the gossip would be today: Mrs. Martin failed a breathalyzer. "Honey, this is for your own good," Mr.
