During President Richard Nixon's presidency, federal judicial appointments played a central role. Nixon appointed four individuals to the Supreme Court of the United States in just over five and a half years.

In 1969 President Richard Nixon nominated Warren E. Burger to be the new Chief Justice of the United States after the retirement of Earl Warren. Burger was quickly confirmed. However, when in the same year, he nominated Clement Haynsworth for a vacancy created by the resignation of Abe Fortas, controversy ensued. Haynsworth was rejected by the United States Senate. In 1970 Nixon nominated G. Harrold Carswell, who also was rejected by the Senate. Nixon then nominated Harry Blackmun, who was confirmed.

Nixon was shortly afterward faced with two new vacancies on the high bench due to the retirements of John Marshall Harlan and Hugo Black in 1971.

In spite of the rejections of Haynesworth and Carswell, Nixon announced that he would nominate Hershel Friday and Mildred Lillie to the high bench. Neither was well regarded. Friday was a former member of the American Bar Association House of Delegates; Lillie was then a little-known judge on an intermediate state appellate court in California. After the ABA reported both Friday and Lillie as "unqualified", Nixon nominated Lewis Powell and William H. Rehnquist for the vacancies instead, and both were confirmed.

At the appellate level, Nixon formally nominated one person, Charles A. Bane, for a federal appellate judgeship who was never confirmed. Nixon withdrew Bane's nomination on October 22, 1969 after controversies involving a tax case and allegations of anti-semitism. Nixon wound up filling that seat with another nominee. Nixon also considered other appeals court nominees whom he never wound up nominating.

Others who were considered for nomination

During Nixon's second term, his administration considered appointing then-Deputy Solicitor General Jewel Lafontant to an unspecified federal appeals court judgeship (likely on the Seventh Circuit in her home city of Chicago). Lafontant would have been the first African-American woman to serve on a federal appeals court. However, the American Bar Association's Committee on Federal Judiciary rated Lafontant as "unqualified," even though she held a J.D. degree from the University of Chicago Law School and had worked in government since 1969. As a result of the "unqualified" rating, the Nixon administration dropped Lafontant from consideration.

The Times Journal of Cobleskill is a weekly newspaper published every Thursday that covers news concerning Schoharie County of New York. The Times Journal increased its price to $1.00 per paper, from $.75 in 2007, and has a website, also created in 2007.  The Journal, as it is also known, proclaims itself to be "The News of Schoharie County," although it is also read in other areas. It is currently owned by Jim Poole.

The beginning
The Times Journal was first published in 1877; at the time, it was known as the Cobleskill Herald.  Originally, the paper triumphed the Republican point of view.  Although Cobleskill and Schoharie County were heavily Democrat, the paper was successful.

After going through several owners, the Herald was bought by Erwin B. Hard in 1885.  Soon after purchasing the paper, Hard renamed it the Cobleskill Times.

Success and mergers
The paper went through several owners from 1885–1918, but continued to grow.  In 1919, Charles L. Ryder bought the paper.  Ryder, who had also published the Cherry Valley Gazette and the Sharon Springs Record, merged these papers with the Cobleskill Times.

In 1946 the Schoharie County Journal merged with the Cobleskill Times to form the Times Journal.

Today
The Journal was in the Ryder family until 1979, when Richard Sanford purchased it.  In July 1992, Jim Poole became owner and publisher of the paper.
The "Journal" is the main source of high school sports in the county, including teams from Middleburgh, Schoharie, Cobleskill, and Sharon Springs.  They also have a letter to the editor section which draws heavy debate from readers. 

Around November of every year, The Times Journal publishes Hometown Cooking, a collection of reader-submitted recipes. Notable examples of featured recipes include:
Special K Loaf
Pizza Soup
Peanut Butter Soup
Coca-Cola Salad
Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings
Putting-on-the-Ritz Chicken Casserole
Diet Lemonade Chicken
Spaghetti Pie
Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake
Hot Dogs in Bourbon
Root Beer Pulled Chicken

Mario Alvarez Martinez (July 6, 1957 – January 14, 2018) was an Olympic weightlifter for the United States.  His coach was Jim Schmitz.

Early life
Martinez was born and raised on a ranch in Soledad, California. At a young age, Martinez strength trained under a tree with a non-revolving exercise bar and weights. He tied some of these weights on the bar with just a rope so that they would stay on while he would lift. Martinez was so strong that he eventually began bending all of his bars because of all the weight he load on. He would then take a hammer and bend the bars back into place to straighten them and continue on with his training.

Career
Martinez's lifting career in Olympic weightlifting lasted for over 23 years. Throughout his career, he earned himself 10 national championships, 3 Olympics including a silver medal and a 4th-place finish, 3 Pan Am medals, on top of being the first American to snatch over 400 lb and clean & jerk over 500 lb in competition. Martinez had very rough training techniques. He was well known for his bent-arm pulling style. When he would rack his cleans, only his finger tips would be on the bar and he had to regrip for the jerk. When his hands were to slip off, he would have to grab the bar again.

The Agatya (also transliterated as The Agattya) was a Bangladeshi monthly periodical which began publishing in 1949. Its main focus was on literature and culture in Bangladesh, and it was considered very popular before the advent of newer publications. It remains a signature periodical in the history of Bangladesh's socio-cultural movement.

It was founded in part by veteran journalist Mahbub Jamal Zahedi and was initially published by a popular Bangladesh Television host of the time, Fazle Lohani. The journalists who ventured to bring out The Agatya confronted great odds of the day.

The Agatya had a significant role in vocalising the cause of the Bengali people. It is credited by Hayat Saif as having "A role in setting the trend and standards of progressive literary and social thinking in the Dhaka of the early 1950s."

A Long Story Eliane Elias is sixth studio album by Brazilian jazz artist Eliane Elias. The record was released in 1991 via Manhattan Records label.

Reception
Scott Yanow of Allmusic gave this album a negative review, stating "Eliane Elias is a very talented acoustic pianist whose style at times hints at Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea, but sounds quite individual. Unfortunately, this set is extremely lightweight. Most numbers have Elias doubling on synthesizers, with over half of the selections also including her wordless vocals; her voice is average at best. The tunes are moderately pop-ish without being memorable and Elias' piano playing is secondary to the weak melodies (all but "Let Me Go" are her originals) and so-so grooves. Eliane Elias is capable of so much better. Fortunately, there are many better Elias recordings available than this misfire."
