It looks like it's from a 1964 article in LIFE about poverty in rural Appalachia.

The extraordinary 12-page feature for the Jan. 31, 1964, issue of LIFE, titled “The Valley of Poverty” one of the very first substantive reports in any American publication on President Lyndon Johnson’s nascent War on Poverty.

At the time, LIFE was arguably the most influential weekly magazine in the country, and without doubt the most widely read magazine anywhere to regularly publish major photo essays by the world’s premier photojournalists. In that light, LIFE was in a unique position in the early days of Johnson’s administration to not merely tell but to show its readers what was at stake, and what the challenges were, as the new president’s “Great Society” got under way.

“The Valley of Poverty,” illustrated with some of the most powerful and intimate photographs of Dominis’ career, served (and still serves today) as an indictment of a wealthy nation’s indifference.

I would deny you that a surface that's designed to tilt when touched and collects fingerprints as if that's its primary function is anything but abominable. Let alone the models that are designed to operate with a keyboard and touchpad facing down and making contact with whatever surface they're resting on!

Except the Windows version of Outlook (New) doesn't work with all of their data centers - but the web version and Mac version do - because they didn't fully write out the authentication framework for high security tenants so you're forced to use Outlook (Classic) until they "eventually" update it.

I think consciously choosing unpleasant methods to get nicotine helped me quit, or at least made quitting a little easier. I understand if you're making that choice you're probably well on your way to quitting anyways, but for me it was a good reminder of the goal.

But what you LIBS don't understand is that he's still in the game, Loser Biden would of been OUT already. You need to be SMART to bet clothes.
