The porte-cochere, (literally “coach gate”) is an instantly recognizable home feature that has enjoyed a revival in popularity in recent years. The porte-cochere is best described as a “drop-off garage”, much like the kind you find at resorts or hotels, and they’re infi- nitely useful in that they allow homeowners to arrive and unload safe and dry in inclement weather. Historically, the porte-cochere was created with the horse-drawn car- riage in mind; modern porte- cocheres are usually erected near the front doors of the home.

  • Family Matters
    Jeff Benedict’s and Armen Keteyian’s number 1 New York Times bestseller is based on years of reporting and interviews with more than 250 people. The following extract from the biography introduces Tiger Woods’ parents Kultida and Earl and his grandfather Miles. Jeff Benedict and Armen Keteyian Family Matters On September 14, 1981, five-year-old Tiger Woods entered a kinder-garten classroom at Cerritos Elementary School that had been carefully decorated to help put children at ease. It was the first day of school. Pictures of animals and nature were tacked to a couple of bulletin boards. Hand-colored drawings – one of fluffy white clouds against a blue sky, and another of a bright yellow sun with 5 beams radiating from it – were taped to a side wall. Numbers and the letters of the alphabet ran along the top of the chalkboard. But none of it diminished the fact that Tiger felt different from all the other kids. Vastly different. Instead of toys, his prized possession was a custom-made set of golf clubs. Besides his parents, his closest friend was his golf instructor, a thirty-two-year-old man with a mustache named Rudy. Tiger had already appeared on national television a couple of times, 10 performed in front of millions of people, and rubbed shoulders with Bob Hope1, Jimmy Stewart2, and Fran Tarkenton3. His golf swing was so smooth that Tiger looked like a pro in a miniature body. He had even signed autographs, printing “TIGER” in block letters to compensate for the fact that he had yet to learn cursive.

  • Patricia Saiki Oral History Interview Final Edited Transcript
    Patricia Saiki U.S. Representative of Hawaii (1987–1991) Oral History Interview Final Edited Transcript September 20, 2018 Office of the Historian U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. “But when you present instances or examples where they are personally involved one way or another then the whole attitude changes. And so in politics, that’s what it is, isn’t it? It’s personal. You know, you can take any issue, but it doesn’t matter unless it affects you in some way or another. And I always took that as a way to reach people. I don’t care whether they’re Republican or Democrat or independent. It takes the issue and the persons involved, and you can make changes if you have a positive way of handling any serious question.” Patricia Saiki September 20, 2018 Table of Contents Interview Abstract i Interviewee Biography ii Editing Practices iii Citation Information iii Interviewer Biographies iv Interview 1 Notes 46 Abstract Patricia Saiki’s path to Capitol Hill began in Hawaii, where she was born to Japanese-American parents in 1930. While raising five children, she worked as a teacher, union organizer, and state legislator before winning a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in 1986. She was the first Republican and second woman to represent Hawaii in Congress since statehood. In this interview, she discusses her long political career, providing insight into Hawaiian state politics, her legislative strategies as an elected representative at the state and federal level, and the role of women in American politics during the 1970s and 1980s.
