...cancer; in Manhattan. Rose's political involvement stemmed from his activity in the United Hatters, Cap and Millinery Workers International Union, where for 26 years he served as president. Four decades ago, Rose co-founded the American Labor Party; when it began to take on a Communist tint in 1944, he and other union leaders created the rival Liberal Party. The actual vote on the Liberal line was never large, but it was big enough to sway many elections. Republicans such as John Lindsay and Democrats Averell Harriman, Robert Wagner, John Kennedy, Daniel Moynihan and Jimmy Carter were...
...distinct Spanish influence. Nothing tangible, mind you, it's more a question of "feel." My notes on this show are full of references to "latin style" riffs or themes.

While in lockout, their color, markings and even toenail tint are compared with the characteristics listed on the dogs' birth certificates, thus assuring that ringers cannot run under false names...
...grope slowly back down to shelter below the timberline in the shimmering darkness after watching the sunset will never argue that what they have just witnessed was a most spectacular scene. For the few fleeting moments while the sun sets, the whole mountain is bathed in a fiery red tint, and all who sit atop the mountain will no doubt return again and again to be a part of Adams for those few moments...
