Waldo Hunt, 88, a Los Angeles entrepreneur who ushered in the modern renaissance in pop-up books when he revived the art form in the United States in the 1960s, died Nov. 6 of congestive heart failure at a hospital in Porterville, Calif.

…

The first golden age of movable books began in the late 1800s, when European publishers crafted elaborate books for children, and ended with the onset of World War I. With Mr. Hunt's epiphany, the second golden age was about to begin.

Rest In Peace, Waldo.

Dennis Cole, a blond, chiseled former model whose face became familiar to television viewers in the 1960s when he played the first of his panoply of roles in more than a dozen prime-time series, died on Nov. 15 in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. He was 69 and lived in Fort Lauderdale.

The cause has not been determined, said Mr. Cole’s publicist, Edward Lozzi.

…

In 1978, on the set of “Charlie’s Angels,” Mr. Cole met and soon married one of the angels, Jaclyn Smith. They divorced in 1981.

Mr. Cole was born in Detroit on July 19, 1940. He is survived by his brother, Richard. Mr. Cole’s first marriage ended in divorce. His son from his first marriage, Joey, was shot to death during a robbery in Venice, Calif., in 1991. The crime remains unsolved.

Rest In Peace, Dennis.

If his job was selling term life insurance, President Obama would take the prize month after month, after month. He would fit right in too, the way he says one thing to one group, and something completely different to every other group. You can only go on so long, as employee of the month before you run out of people to sell too. Pretty soon everyone has heard your spiel and refuses to listen anymore.
