    The West Wing Weekly 6.09: “Impact Winter” Guest: Ben Murray [Intro Music] JOSH: Hello, you’re listening to The West Wing Weekly. I’m Joshua Malina. HRISHI: And I’m Hrishikesh Hirway. Today, we’re talking about Season 6 Episode 9. It’s called “Impact Winter”. JOSH: This episode was written by Debora Cahn. This episode was directed by Lesli Linka Glatter. This episode first aired on December 15th, 2004. HRISHI: Two episodes ago, in episode 6:07, the title was “A Change is Gonna Come,” and I think in this episode the changes arrive. JOSH: Aaaahhh. HRISHI: The President goes to China, but he is severely impaired by his MS. Charlie pushes C.J. to consider her next step after she steps out of the White House, and Josh considers his next step after it turns out Donna has already considered what her next step will be. JOSH: Indeed. HRISHI: Later in this episode we’re going to be joined by Ben Murray who made his debut on The West Wing in the last episode. He plays Curtis, the president’s new personal assistant to replace Charlie. JOSH: A man who has held Martin Sheen in his arms. I mean, I’ve done that off camera, but he did it on television. HRISHI: [Laughs] Little do our listeners know that Martin Sheen insists on being carried everywhere. JOSH: That’s right. I was amazed all these years later when Martin showed up for his interview with us that Ben was carrying him. That was the first time we met him.

Descriptive Summary Creator: Various Title: Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection Date Span: 1875-1972 Abstract: The Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection consists of 800 playbills and programs for motion pictures, musical concerts, high school commencement exercises, lectures, photoplays, vaudeville, and burlesque, as well as the more traditional offerings such as plays and operas, all from Brooklyn theaters. Quantity: 2.25 linear feet Location: Brooklyn Collection Map Room, cabinet 11 Repository: Brooklyn Public Library – Brooklyn Collection Reference Code: BC0071 Scope and Content Note The 800 items in the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, which occupies 2.25 cubic feet, easily refute the stereotypes of Brooklyn as provincial and insular. From the late 1880s until the 1940s, the period covered by the bulk of these materials, the performing arts thrived in Brooklyn and were available to residents right at their doorsteps. At one point, there were over 200 theaters in Brooklyn. Frequented by the rich, the middle class and the working poor, they enjoyed mass popularity. With materials from 115 different theaters, the collection spans almost a century, from 1875 to 1972. The highest concentration is in the years 1890 to 1909, with approximately 450 items.

While turning fifty strikes fear in the hearts of many Angelenos, it’s actually good for important buildings. In historic preservation, fifty years is the general threshold for when buildings and structures may be officially considered old enough to have acquired historic significance, par- ticularly in terms of the National Register of His- toric Places.

    BACKSTORY In the years after World War II, while many struggled to rebuild their lives in a devastated economy, Los Angeles embraced an era of unprec - edented growth and prosperity, and Hollywood became a shining beacon of the American Dream to the rest of the world. Yet beneath the glitz and glamour lay a darker reality: a burgeoning drug trade, a movie industry relentlessly preying on naïve young girls, rampant corruption at every level of police and government, and thousands of demobilized troops trying to readjust to civilian life and leave the horrors of war behind them. After years of fighting in the Pacific Theater of World War II, one such young man, Marine Lieutenant Cole Phelps, was awarded one of the Navy’s highest honors, the Silver Star, and was honorably discharged. Keen to continue serving his country on home soil, Cole signed up with the L.A.P.D., a police force suffering a public rela- tions crisis amid accusations of corruption and brutality. A young, decorated war hero could be just what the department needs to turn the tide of public opinion.

  • Diaries 1914-1936, Arthur Sidwell
    Arthur Sidwell’s 1914 – 1936 Diaries Introduction These are the first twenty of Arthur’s pocket diaries. There’s a long gap between them and the ones for 1948 – 1960 and this is already a long document so I’ll type the later diaries into a separate document. The entries are very brief but they give a good sense of his personality and what his life was like. They’re also a good source of dates, which I’ve used to update “The Sidwell Family” document. I made a summary at the start of each year to highlight noteworthy things and questions. I’ll make an overall summary of Arthur and Ethel’s life in the next version but this just has a copy of the note for each year with no editing. Notes: The names of people and places are often difficult to read and I’m sure I got some wrong. [addition by me] Many of the entries include the note “(extra)”, which means he wrote more about that day in a journal that has not survived. “61” is 61 Napier Street, Nelson, where Ethel’s family lived [1905 postcard to Ethel] “67” is the number of the house where John Henry & Sarah Jane Whalley lived in Nelson. Version 1.0 – Mar 3rd, 2005 Page 1 Arthur Sidwell’s 1914 – 1936 Diaries Summary of Arthur’s Life 1914 Arthur’s 23rd birthday was in 1914. He was working days in the cotton mills and evenings at the Palace, a live entertainment venue. He rarely mentions the mill but it’s evident he worked at the Palace so he could see the shows not just for extra money.
