Common area Pilot Company surprises 40-year beer, homeless funding and driver with custom Peterbilt truck playgrounds on city agenda By Mike Steely Senior Writer [email protected] The Knoxville City Council will discuss allowing open beer drinking in common areas, such as Market Square, when it meets Tuesday evening. The council agenda item involves revising the city code to create a Common Area Permit in a retailer’s on-premise permit within a common area. The matter is on first reading and two readings are required. A petition signed by about 2,000 people was present- ed to the city for the Market Square open beer idea. The common area permit may be separate from the on- premise permit under regu- lations established by the Pilot Company and Peterbilt surprised 40-year driver Daniel Abshire with a custom Peterbilt truck that is reminiscent of the rig his father, Jim, beer board. drove during his tenure at Pilot.

Anderson Committee Members, Jon R. Bond H. W. Brands John H. Lenihan David Vaught Head of Department, Walter L. Buenger May 2008 Major Subject: History iii ABSTRACT Truman, Congress and the Struggle for War and Peace in Korea. (May 2008) Larry Wayne Blomstedt, B.S., Texas State University; M.S., Texas A&M University-Kingsville Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Terry H. Anderson This dissertation analyzes the roles of the Harry Truman administration and Congress in directing American policy regarding the Korean conflict. Using evidence from primary sources such as Truman’s presidential papers, communications of White House staffers, and correspondence from State Department operatives and key congressional figures, this study suggests that the legislative branch had an important role in Korean policy. Congress sometimes affected the war by what it did and, at other times, by what it did not do. Several themes are addressed in this project. One is how Truman and the congressional Democrats failed each other during the war. The president did not dedicate adequate attention to congressional relations early in his term, and was slow to react to charges of corruption within his administration, weakening his party politically.

Eisenhower in Washington, D.C. Centered around an elaborate layout of stone blocks running along a city- block of Maryland Avenue is the featured aspect of Gehry‘s design: a narrative tapestry of scenes from Eisenhower‘s life. Over seven stories tall, the tapestry will impede the view of the building located directly behind it. That building is the Department of Education, named for Lyndon Johnson.1 Decades after two of the greatest political titans of the twentieth century had passed away, their legacies were still in competition.
