HMS Apelles (1808)
|
HMS Apelles was a Crocus-class brig-sloop of the Royal Navy. She was launched in 1808 and sold in 1816. During her service she grounded on the French coast and was in French hands for about a day before the British recaptured her. During her career she captured two French privateers.
Career
Commander Thomas Oliver was appointed captain of Apelles in September 1808. She participated in the ill-fated Walcheren Campaign. Starting on 30 July 1809, a British armed force of 39,000 men landed on Walcheren. However, the French fleet had left Flushing (Vlissingen) and sailed to Antwerp, and the British lost over 4,000 men to "Walcheren Fever", a combination of malaria and typhus, and to enemy action. As the strategic reasons for the campaign dissipated and conditions worsened, the British force withdrew in December. Prize money arising from the net proceeds of the property captured at Walcheren and the adjacent islands in the Scheld was paid in October 1812.
On 19 October 1810 Apelles captured the French privateer Somnambule (or Somnus), of 18 guns and 56 men, off Dieppe. The privateer was so damaged in the engagement before she surrendered that Oliver had to scuttle her.
Before Apelles captured her the privateer had captured the sloop Friends. While Apelles was in sight, recaptured Friends, and sent her into Dover. French sources report that Somnambule (or Somanbule) was a chasse maree commissioned as a privateer in Dieppe in October 1810 under Captain Pierre-Antoine Sauvage. Lieutenant de vaisseau F. Lecomte was Sauvage's second-in-command. In the engagement a musket ball killed Sauvage, and Lecomte took over, and it was he that struck, though not before he himself was wounded. The French sources furthermore give her 11 guns, not 18.
Commander Frederick Hoffman assumed command in December, relieving Oliver. Apelless officers had informed Admiral George Campbell that Oliver was insane, and that discipline on the sloop had deteriorated. Campbell ordered a Court of Inquiry, and as a result of its report, gently suggested to Oliver that he resign, which, after some hesitation, he did. Hoffman recommissioned her in early 1811.
Captured by the French
Apelles and were blockading the French coast between Cape Gris Nez and Étaples when at 3am on the morning of 3 May 1812 a thick fog descended. Within 45 minutes Skylark had grounded.
All efforts to free Skylark failed and in the morning shore batteries started firing on her as French troops started to gather. The crew set fire to Skylark and left in her boats.
Apelles too had run aground in the fog at about 4am, and within sight of Skylark. Shore batteries fired on Apelles also, and troops gathered. All efforts to free her failed and by 6am Commander Frederick Hoffman ordered his crew into the boats. Unfortunately there was not enough room for all, so Hoffman and 19 of his men stayed behind. Commander Boxer, of Skylark, came alongside in a boat and urged Hoffman to leave, but Hoffman refused to do so while some of his men were still on board. As more French troops arrived with field artillery, Hoffman raised a white flag at about 6:30am. Before he gave up his ship, Hoffman and the purser burned all Apelless signal books and other instructions.
The French took Hoffman and his men prisoner and refloated Apelles. However, the next day and arrived and were able to drive Apelles on shore. Then and arrived. Gunfire from the British squadron drove the French off, permitting boats from Bermuda to recapture Apelles.
Return to service
Between May and September Apelles underwent refitting at Sheerness. She then came under the command of Commander Charles Robb.
Robb was already captain in December when Apelles captured the Danish vessels No. 23 (3 December), Haabet (13 December), and Falken (20 December).
At daybreak on 18 February 1813, Apelles captured the French privateer cutter Ravisseur at . Ravisseur was armed with ten 9-pounder carronades and four long 6-pounder guns, and had a crew of 51 men under the command of M. Alexander Happey. She was 12 days out of Dunkirk and had intended to cruise off Flamborough Head, but westerly gales had driven her eastward. She had not made any captures. Apelles sent her into Leith.
Commander Robb drowned on 27 February off the Isle of May when a gale of wind washed him overboard. He was assisting in throwing her guns overboard to lighten her.
Commander Alexander M"Vicar (or McVicar) was appointed to Apelles on 8 March, and recommissioned her that month for the North Sea. McVicar tested a new patent compass in July and wrote a testimonial letter on 13 June. Vice-Admiral Robert Otway had ordered him to test the compass belonging to Mr. Alexander, of Leith, and McVicar used it for some nine weeks, finding it better than the other compasses on Apelles. It was quick to come on point and held its direction in heavy seas and despite shocks such as guns firing or seas striking.
On 11 December 1813, Apelles captured Speculation. Speculation, of Bergen, Fornguest, master, reached Leith on 21 December.
In 1814 Apelles visited Archangel, having sailed from Leith with a fleet after first having had to put back.
Fate
Apelles was paid off into ordinary in September 1815. The Admiralty offered her for sale at Sheerness on 17 February 1816. Mr. Marclark purchased her on 6 March 1816 for £800.

Joseph Newman (Texas settler)
|
Joseph Newman (c. 1787–1831) moved to Texas and became one of Stephen F. Austin's Old Three Hundred colonists. In 1806, he married Rachel Rabb in Ohio. Their family, which eventually expanded to include ten children, moved first to Illinois Territory and by 1820 was living along the Red River in Spanish Texas. In 1824, the Newmans and Rabbs moved to a land grant in modern-day Wharton County, Texas where they farmed and ranched. Joseph died in 1831 but his wife lived until 1872.
Early life and migration
Joseph Newman was born around 1787. On June 21, 1806, then 19-year-old Joseph married 16-year-old Rachel Rabb in Warren County, Ohio. The family later migrated to Illinois Territory where Joseph did military service in the War of 1812. Again the Newmans moved, this time to Arkansas Territory, where they lived along the Red River.
In 1820, the families crossed to the south side of the river and lived in the Jonesborough settlement. The authorities in Miller County, Arkansas tried to collect taxes from the residents of Jonesborough. Believing themselves to be living in Spanish Texas, about 80 settlers petitioned the Spanish governor, asking him to appoint an alcalde to govern them. If this was not possible the petition requested that the settlers be allowed to elect their own officials. The document became known as the Joseph Newman Memorial.
Austin's colony
In 1823, the Newmans traveled to join Rachel's parents William Rabb and Mary Smalley Rabb in Stephen F. Austin's Colony. They were given Land Grant 59 in Mexican Texas on August 10, 1824. The grant included one sitio in what is now Wharton County and one labore in modern-day Austin County. The larger sitio or league encompassed 4,428 acres while the labore was only 177 acres. The Newman's league was located northwest of Wharton, Texas on the east side of the Colorado River. Their labore was located near San Felipe. An adjoining league along the Colorado belonged to Rachel's brother Andrew Rabb.
An early census recorded that Newman farmed and tended livestock. He was not destined to live long on his new land. On February 15, 1831 he signed a will that left his property to his wife and their ten children. Their offspring were Mary, William, Eliza, Minerva, Sally, Elizabeth, Thomas, Ali, Joseph Jr. and Andrew. Of these, the three youngest sons were born in Austin's Colony. The dying Newman appointed Andrew Rabb executor and Rachel executrix of his will. His will also asked that he be buried in the family cemetery on his property. The location of Newman's grave is unknown. Rachel deeded all her property to her children four years after her husband's death, but she kept living in her original home. She also inherited property in Matagorda County from her parents. In 1854, none of the original Newman league belonged to family members, so Rachel moved to Dewitt County where she remarried. She died in 1872 and was buried in the Salt Creek cemetery. Newman's daughter Sally led a very colorful life and was supposed to have gunned down several men.

JBG SMITH Properties is a publicly traded real estate investment trust based in Bethesda, Maryland.
As of December 31, 2022, the company owned 51 operating properties, 2 additional properties under construction, and had 20 properties in its development pipeline. All of the company's properties are in the Washington metropolitan area, mostly in National Landing, almost all of which are accessible by the Washington Metro.
The company has a history of developing sustainable buildings and is a member of the U.S. Green Building Council. It helped develop the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program for the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of green buildings, homes, and neighborhoods.
History
In late 1956, three attorneys — Gerald J. Miller, Donald A. Brown, and Joseph Bernard Gildenhorn — formed a law practice in Rockville, Maryland called Miller, Brown & Gildenhorn. By 1960, the firm stopped practicing law and instead began securing private loans from wealthy investors to finance building projects brought to them by real estate developers.
By 1962, the company controlled more than $50 million in real estate. Among the projects it completed in Washington, D.C. were a $4 million office building at 2121 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, the $2.7 million Jefferson Building at 19th Street NW and Jefferson Place NW, an $8.5 million office building at 19th and M Streets NW, and a $12 million large apartment complex at Tunlaw Road NW and Watson Place NW. That year, the company formed its own real estate development arm, MBG Associates. Benjamin A. Jacobs, a 23-year-old law student who expressed deep interest in the law firm's real estate practice, joined the real estate division.
In 1969, Miller was replaced with Jacobs and the company changed its name to JBG Associates.
In the late 1980s, the company was among the first real estate development firms in the D.C. area to redevelop properties for third-party clients for a set fee. This strategy helped the company survive the early 1990s recession.
The company aggressively acquired several properties after the early 1990s recession. With 26 buildings in its portfolio in the early 1990s, the company considered an initial public offering, although it did not happen.
By 1997, the company had an ownership interest in 21 commercial properties, including many office buildings, two hotels and one shopping center. It sold most of its assets to Trizec Properties in 1997 for $560 million. The deal did not include 10 apartment projects owned by JBG. The sale helped raise capital for the firm. But with a smaller portfolio, the company also shed most of its staff, and only 15 people remained with the firm and Brown and Gildenhorn retired from daily management.
In 1999, the company decided on a new investment strategy, seeking individual, and later institutional, investors that gave the firm access to funds it could use at its discretion. The first investment fund closed in 2002, and its first institutional investor was the financial endowment of Yale University. By fall 2012, JBG had established 8 investment funds and raised $5.5 billion; several of the funds were specifically created just for investment by Yale.
In 2005, JBG recapitalized several office buildings by selling a stake in the buildings to Morgan Stanley for $644 million.
In August 2007, JBG sold most of its portfolio to MacFarlane Partners for $2 billion.
By 2011, the company had $10 billion in assets. That year, Jacobs retired as managing member. The firm had 15 owners by 2012, and more than 500 employees.
By the fall 2012, The company had developed, owned, or managed more than of office space; 15,000 apartments; of retail space; and 15 hotels with more than 4,500 rooms.
In 2013, the company was named as the most active real estate developer in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
The company opened a real estate investment fund called JBG/Fund IX on March 17, 2014, and by September 2014, the company had raised $680 million.
In July 2017, the company merged with Charles E. Smith Companies, a subsidiary of Vornado Realty Trust that owned its assets in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The company changed its name to JBG Smith and was spun off into a public company.
In November 2018, the company sold land with 4.1 million developable square feet to Amazon and announced lease transactions with Amazon at National Landing as part of the Amazon HQ2 initiative.

Glen Gainer Jr.
|
Glen B. Gainer Jr. (July 4, 1927 – September 8, 2009) was an American politician and member of the Democratic Party who served as the 18th State Auditor of West Virginia from 1977 to 1993.
Early life and career
Born in 1927 to Glen. B Gainer Sr. and Nettie Elizabeth (née Smith), Glen B. Gainer Jr. had one brother, Thomas Gainer. He married Sally Jo Padgett in 1955 and they had one daughter, Beth, and two sons, John David and Glen.
Gainer graduated from Parkersburg High School in 1945 and then from Marietta College. He served in the United States Navy during World War II and then worked as a school teacher and an athletic coach in Wood County.
Political career
Gainer's first venture into politics came when he served as the Mayor of Parkersburg from 1968 to 1970. He was the last Mayor to serve under the city commission form of government. As such, he had to cast tie-breaking votes.
In 1976, he ran for State Auditor. He won the Democratic primary with 49%, defeating State Delegate J. Kemp McLaughlin and future State Senator Homer Heck, who took 31% and 20%, respectively. In the general election, he defeated the incumbent State Auditor John M. Gates in a landslide, by 62% to 38%. He became the second member of his family to serve as Auditor - his cousin Denzil Gainer had served as Auditor from 1961 to 1972, when he died in office.
Gainer was re-elected against Republican David Walkup in 1980 by an even larger margin, 66% to 34%.
In 1982, he ran for West Virginia's 1st congressional district. Incumbent Democratic Congressman Bob Mollohan was retiring and the seat was open. Mollohan had been grooming his son Alan to succeed him for years and he won the Democratic primary with 41% of the vote. State Senator Dan R. Tonkovich came second with 36%, Gainer came third with 14%, Barbara Trushel came fourth with 4%, former gubernatorial candidate H. John Rogers came fifth with 2% and Timmy Kearns came last with under 2%. Alan Mollohan went on to win the general election and represented the district until 2011.
Gainer ran for a third term as Auditor in 1984 and won easily, defeating Republican William D. Bone by 67% to 33%. In his bid for a fourth term in 1988, Gainer faced a primary challenge from Phillip Lee "Denzil" Gainer (no relation). Gainer defeated him by 68% to 32% and then defeated Republican Nelson B. Robinson Jr. by 65% to 35%.
Gainer did not run for re-election in 1992. He was succeeded by his son Glen Gainer III, who held the office from 1993 to 2016.
Death
Gainer died on September 6, 2021. He was predeceased by his brother and his son John David. He is interred at Mount Olivet Cemetery in Parkersburg.

Aotearoa Music People's Choice Award
|
The Aotearoa Music People's Choice Award is an Aotearoa Music Award that honours New Zealand music artists, as chosen by public vote. The five finalists are determined by the Music Awards Committee, based on overall performance during the eligibility period. It is the only New Zealand Music Award decided by public vote.
In 2008, the award attracted controversy, after unknown Dunedin pop-rock band The DFender made the nominations shortlist. The band, who did not have any chart material, had extensively lobbied their fans on MySpace and gained the most votes in the initial nominations round. This prompted the call for the nominations to be chosen by Recorded Music NZ, a change that was eventually made.
The People's Choice Award was first awarded in 2004 to Scribe. Fat Freddy's Drop has won the award twice and been nominated two further times, while Stan Walker has won the award twice, with Walker having been nominated every year from 2010 to 2015. Lorde and Brooke Fraser have each won the award and been nominated a further two times.

Astra Dome
|
The Astra Domes were a fleet of streamlined dome cars built by the American Car and Foundry Company ("ACF") and later by Pullman-Standard ("PS") for the Union Pacific Railroad between 1954–1958. ACF built a total of 35 cars including coaches, dining cars, and observation cars, while PS built 5 for Union Pacific. After Union Pacific exited the passenger business in 1971 the Auto-Train Corporation purchased most of the fleet and operated them for an additional ten years.
Design
ACF produced three types of domes for the Union Pacific: coaches, dining cars, and observation cars. The ten dining cars were unique: the only dome dining cars (aside from GM's Train of Tomorrow) ever built for a United States railroad. The cars featured seating on both levels: 18 in the upper level in booths and 18 in the lower level at tables. Also located on the lower level was a kitchen, pantry, and private dining room with seating for 10. A dumbwaiter connected the two levels.
The coaches could seat 24 in the dome area and an additional 36 in the lower level. The center section was given over to men's and women's lounges. The lounge-observation cars were square-ended instead of the rounded-off design favored by many railroads. Like the coaches, the upper-level dome area could seat 24. In the lower level, starting at the vestibule end, was a card room (seating for five), cocktail lounge (seats for nine) and bar, stairs up to the dome level, and finally the observation area itself with seating for 19.
Service history
The Union Pacific was a comparative latecomer to the dome scene when it ordered the Astra Domes from ACF in 1954; most western railroads already operated domes, some since the late 1940s. ACF delivered the 35 cars to the Union Pacific in 1955 at the cost of . The Union Pacific assigned the cars to its various transcontinental streamliners:
Five coaches to the new Challenger
Five coaches, five dining cars and five lounge-observation cars to the City of Portland
Five dining cars and five lounge-observation cars to City of Los Angeles
Five lounge-observation cars to the City of St. Louis
The Union Pacific found it necessary to assign a second steward to the upper-level dining area. The Union Pacific gave great publicity to the novelty of dome dining cars operating between Chicago, Portland, Oregon and Los Angeles.
Union Pacific later ordered an extra five coaches from Pullman-Standard, numbered 7011-7015 in 1958 which were assigned to the City of St. Louis. Alongside these was another dome, purchased for the Wabash Railroad. This car was later leased and then purchased by the Norfolk and Western.
After the Union Pacific exited the passenger business in 1971 it sold two of the dome coaches (#7004 and #7008) to the Alaska Railroad for use on its AuRoRa streamliner. UP retained dome coach #7006 and dome lounge-observation #9004 for company use and donated dome diner #8003 to the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where it remains today. The remainder of the fleet–seven coaches, nine dining cars and fourteen lounge-observation cars–were purchased by the new Auto-Train Corporation for use on the Auto-Train. After Auto-Train's bankruptcy in 1981 the fleet was sold and dispersed. Many remain in private hands, while some were reacquired by UP for use in excursions, business trains, and inspection trains as part of the Union Pacific Heritage Fleet.
The current Astra Dome cars in the Union Pacific Heritage fleet include:
Dome Coach #7001 "Columbine"
Dome Coach #7015 "Challenger"
Dome Diner #7011 "Missouri River Eagle"
Dome Diner #8004 "Colorado Eagle"
Dome Diner #8008 "City of Portland"
Dome Lounge #9004 "Harriman"
Dome Lounge #9005 "Walter Dean"
Dome Lounge #9009 "City of San Francisco" (still retains its observation car configuration)

Alex Morse
|
Alex Benjamin Morse (born January 29, 1989) is an American politician who served as the 44th mayor of Holyoke, Massachusetts from 2012 to 2021. A member of the Democratic Party, he was elected the youngest mayor of Holyoke at age 22. He was reelected three times, with his final term expiring in January 2022. Morse resigned on March 26, 2021, to accept a position as the town manager of Provincetown, beginning on April 5, 2021.
Morse was the first incumbent mayor in Massachusetts to endorse the legalization of cannabis during a 2016 ballot initiative, an industry he has since sought to promote in Holyoke's economy, in tandem with information technology startups. In September 2020, Morse lost the primary for Massachusetts's 1st congressional district to incumbent Richard Neal.
Early life and education
Alex Benjamin Morse was born January 29, 1989, in Holyoke, Massachusetts, the youngest of three children of Tracey and Ingrid Morse (née Powell). He took an interest in politics at an early age. In 2001, at age 12, he joined the Holyoke Youth Commission, a group that advises city leaders on issues affecting young people.
A graduate of the Holyoke Public Schools, Morse served two terms as student representative for the Holyoke School Committee and three years on the Massachusetts Governor's LGBT Commission. He was a participant in Upward Bound, a federal program that facilitates higher education in students from low-income families.
During his time at Holyoke High School, Morse formed a chapter of the Gay-Straight Alliance, and was the inaugural recipient of Boston's Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays Elsie Frank Award, a scholarship named in honor of the mother of Congressman Barney Frank.
The following autumn Morse entered Brown University, working part-time as an assistant for David Cicilline, the mayor of Providence, Rhode Island, and a future Congressman. Morse graduated in the spring of 2011 with a Bachelor of Arts in urban studies. In 2016, he completed Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government program for Senior Executives in State and Local Government as a David Bohnett LGBTQ Victory Institute Leadership Fellow.
Career
Mayoral elections
In January 2011, while in his final semester at Brown University, Morse announced his campaign for mayor of Holyoke. The previous summer, he had attended a three-day workshop in New York City hosted by Wellstone Action, a grassroots campaign training organization for progressives, and began quietly fundraising at the end of 2010.
Morse's election in 2011 at the age of 22 received national coverage, as he was the city's youngest and first openly gay mayor and, at the time, among the youngest mayors in the United States. He was reelected in 2013 and 2015.
In 2015, Holyoke's mayoral term was extended from two years to four, effective 2017. Morse was reelected that year, and is the first Holyoke mayor to serve a four-year term.
On December 1, 2020, Morse announced that he would not seek reelection as mayor in 2021.
Mayoral tenure
Cannabis industry
On August 1, 2016, Morse became the first Massachusetts mayor to publicly endorse the legalization of cannabis. Following legalization, Morse has encouraged investment of marijuana cultivation in the city, calling Holyoke "the Rolling Paper City"; he vetoed a 2017 moratorium the city council placed on recreational retailers.
Morse has attended several cannabis cultivation forums as a speaker, including several on the industry hosted in Holyoke. Among the earliest projects to open in Holyoke was a $10 million cultivation facility for Chicago-based Green Thumb Industries (GTI), which was operational by mid-2018. Several other businesses have since purchased facilities in the city, including a $3.2 million sale of a former American Thread Company mill to Trulieve, a company seeking to produce and sell retail marijuana at the site.
Casino
During Morse's 2011 campaign, a prominent issue was plans for a casino in the city, with then-mayor Elaine Pluta supporting such plans and Morse opposing them. In an October 2012 editorial, Morse elaborated on his position, concluding, "I oppose a casino in Holyoke because I have not given up on Holyoke".
On November 26, 2012, Morse held a press conference announcing his reversal on this stance, vowing to work with local businessman Eric Suher and others to build a casino at Mountain Park, with the city accepting a $25,000 payment from the developer for the costs of a review process. Facing backlash from supporters of his previous campaign against casinos, by December 2012 Morse reversed course and returned the funds, citing a "resounding voice against the casinos".
Education
As the chair of the Holyoke School Committee, Morse opposed state receivership before the 2015 state takeover, saying, "We should agree that local control matters, which is to say that a corporate takeover of our district or a charter organization running our district is not acceptable". Since receivership he has become increasingly supportive of state implementation, as public schools have seen marked improvement, with graduation rates increasing 20%. Morse has also publicly supported state expanded programs such as bilingual education, and the tentative construction of two new middle schools for a reported estimate of $132 million.
Labor support
In 2017, following a trial shutdown, or "brownout", of a local fire engine company, the International Association of Fire Fighters Local 1693 made a vote of no confidence in Morse, saying in a press release, "Chief Pond's continued reductions to the Department and practice of operating the Department at unsafe levels, all with the support of [the] Mayor". Morse has repeatedly affirmed support of the fire chief and denied the validity of these concerns, saying at a protest outside of a fundraiser that "the points that they're making just are untrue."
The Pioneer Valley AFL–CIO and the New England Regional Council of Carpenters Local 108 endorsed Morse in his 2017 reelection campaign.
Municipal finance
In 2014 the city council criticized Morse for refusing to disclose the reason for providing a $45,000 exit agreement to city solicitor Heather Egan, a year after her appointment. In response, Morse said in a Reddit AMA: "I do admit that I should have briefed the City Council before executing the settlement agreement with this former employee as to avoid issues of perception. Again, when faced with the decision to potentially spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal costs to fight frivolous lawsuits, or to execute a settlement agreement with funds that were already allocated in the budget, I chose the latter. Separation agreements are not uncommon in both the private and public sector."
Following the resignation of the city auditor in 2018, who suggested receivership and said he did not believe the mayor's office followed protocol, state auditor Suzanne Bump responded to a city council request stating, "I do not believe the circumstances in Holyoke rise to the level of warranting a state audit". In the previous month, a private audit by firm CliftonLarsonAllen found all city funds accounted for. Although Holyoke's government has a strong mayor–council government, Morse has called for finance-related departments to be placed under a chief financial officer appointed by the mayor and subject to City Council confirmation. The charter currently calls for the election of city treasurers.
Sanctuary city status
On November 19, 2014, Morse issued an executive order to the Holyoke Police Department, asking the department not to enforce federal civil detainer requests for holding immigrants suspected of being in the country illegally past the point they would usually be released. This codified a practice previously implemented during his tenure. The practice would not apply those who were registered as sex offenders, had previous indictments or convictions, or outstanding warrants.
Following a threat by the Trump administration to defund sanctuary cities in 2017, Morse reaffirmed this practice. Morse acknowledged that he knew of no instance where local police ignored federal immigration requests, and that the policy did not directly affect Holyoke's largest group of Latino residents, the Puerto Rican community, who hold American citizenship.
2020 congressional campaign
On June 22, 2019, Morse announced his run for the U.S. House of Representatives against incumbent Democrat Richard Neal, to represent Massachusetts's 1st congressional district. He was later endorsed by the Justice Democrats, the Sunrise Movement, and Humanity Forward. Morse was defeated by Neal by around 17 percentage points.
In an August 2020 email, as part of what Morse and Out magazine later called a smear campaign, the College Democrats of Massachusetts alleged that Morse had used "his position of power for romantic or sexual gain". The email said that Morse had used dating apps to match with and contact students, aged 18 and above, at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where Morse was an adjunct instructor. The political group disinvited Morse from any future events on campus. Morse responded, "I have never violated UMass policy". The local chapter of the Sunrise Movement voted to retract its endorsement of Morse, and the national organization announced that it would no longer campaign for him. Other organizations, including the Justice Democrats and the Working Families Party, affirmed their support of Morse.
On August 12, 2020, The Intercept published an article on chat logs shared with the publication, reporting that the accusations had been organized starting almost a year earlier as part of a sting operation by the UMass Amherst College Democrats in an attempt to aid Neal. The released chat logs discussed looking for Morse's dating profiles and how to lead him into saying incriminating things, and their hopes of gaining internships with Neal in exchange. The Neal campaign and the UMass Amherst College Democrats both denied having cooperated. Timothy Ennis, the chief strategist and former president of the UMass Amherst College Democrats, had taken a class with Neal and was highlighted as a driving force behind the allegations, with members of the group saying that Ennis saw Neal as his "in" for a political career. Former members of the UMass Amherst College Democrats alleged an "anti-Morse bias" in the group. On August 12, Business Insider journalist Grace Panetta wrote on Twitter that she had been contacted anonymously in April 2020 and that the names in the chat logs The Intercept had acquired were the same as those who had written her with vague allegations against Morse.
Massachusetts state senator Julian Cyr said the situation showed how "vague and anonymous allegations can be easily launched against LGBTQ candidates to destroy their campaigns". Journalist Glenn Greenwald expressed a similar sentiment, writing that the allegations were "old homophobic tropes" and calling the allegations a "smear campaign". LGBTQ Victory Fund political director Sean Meloy called the incident "a series of orchestrated political attacks meant to weaponize Alex’s sexuality and appeal to a homophobic narrative around the sex lives of LGBTQ people." On August 16, 2020, the Sunrise Movement resumed campaigning for Morse.
Further reporting by The Intercept alleged that the executive director of the Massachusetts Democratic Party, Veronica Martinez, coordinated with College Democrats before the allegations were made public, and that she "demanded records of her communications with CDMA members be destroyed" once the allegations were brought into question. Martinez denied the report. In response to evidence and allegations that party officials and elected representatives may have collaborated in originating and circulating the allegations for political gain, more than 50 Massachusetts Democratic State Committee members wrote that the organization's leadership "may have behaved unethically" and demanded an independent investigation before the September election into "what appears to be an unprecedented abuse of power".
That independent investigation found that Massachusetts Democratic Party leaders played a role in encouraging the students to send the letter, intentionally affecting the campaign and violating party rules.
An independent investigation requested by UMass found that Morse had used dating apps to "aggressively pursue dates and sexual relationships with students" but had not violated any school policy. It also found no evidence that Neal’s campaign had had a role in the initial report and advised the school to tighten its policies on teacher-student relationships.
Town manager of Provincetown
After ending his tenure as mayor of Holyoke, Morse was unanimously chosen by the Provincetown selectboard to be the next town manager, replacing an interim town manager.
Personal life
Morse is Jewish and openly gay. He was born to a Christian father and a Jewish mother. In 2012, Morse was ranked #9 in Out magazine's annual list of 100 most eligible bachelors; in 2013 the magazine ranked him #66. In response, Morse said, "I'd like to thank Out magazine for their recognition. It's always positive to see Holyoke highlighted in national publications."
Morse was a lecturer of political science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst from 2014 to 2019.
Forbes magazine named Morse in their 2019 30 Under 30 list for Law & Policy, citing his "initiatives include offering refuge to Puerto Ricans displaced by Hurricane Maria, encouraging legal marijuana businesses and restoring the city's downtown."
Morse's mother suffered from severe mental health issues and his brother struggled with drug addiction; both died during his mayoralty.

The NMBS/SNCB Type 29 was a class of steam locomotives built between 1945 and 1946. The class was ordered and used to help revive the operations of the National Railway Company of Belgium (NMBS/SNCB) following World War II. The locomotives were built in Canada and the United States, and supplied to Belgium under the auspices of what later became known as the Marshall Plan.
One member of the class, no. 29.013, has been preserved by the NMBS/SNCB for display at Train World, the Belgian national railway museum at Schaarbeek railway station in north-central Brussels.

West Lanyon Quoit
|
West Lanyon Quoit, also known as Lower Lanyon Quoit, is the remains of a prehistoric dolmen situated in the parish of Madron in Cornwall . It was excavated in the late 18th century, and much of the structure has since been destroyed.
Location
West Lanyon Quoit is located northwest of Penzance near the road between Madron and Morvah. It stands 300 metres to the southwest of the road. 700 metres to the east stands the much more famous Lanyon Quoit.
Description
At the present day all that can be seen of West Lanyon Quoit are two large stones. One support stone (probably the southwest stone of the chamber) is still standing: it is 1.6 metres high and 1.5 metres wide. The capstone, which rests against it, is 4.1 metres long and 2.6 metres wide.
Discovery and excavation
West Lanyon Quoit was originally covered by a large barrow mound. The burial chamber only came to light in the late 18th century. The account of the discovery was published in volume 14 of Archaeologia in 1803. This describes how the landowner had directed his servants to remove the earth from the barrow for compost. When the servants had removed "near a hundred cart-loads" they discovered "the supporters of a cromlech, from which the coverstone was slipped off on the fourth side, but still leaning against them." The chamber was orientated north-east to south-west: the northeast end was open. The chamber was rectangular and its measurements were given as 10 feet by 5 feet by 5 feet. Digging into the chamber led to the discovery of a broken urn, ashes, and some human bones. Given that the chamber was full of mound material, it is now thought that the tomb had been opened previously and that the urn and bones were a secondary, probably Bronze Age, cremation burial.

Edmund Klein (22 October 1922 – 23 July 1999) was an Austrian-born American dermatologist.
He was born in Vienna, Austria, to David Klein, a cantor, and Helen Bibelman Klein. Jewish, he escaped from Austria in 1938, during the Anschluss.
He was a research professor at the University at Buffalo and served as chief of dermatology at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center. Klein developed a topical treatment for skin cancer with 5-fluorouracil, developed one of the first effective treatments for Kaposi's sarcoma, and was amongst the first to clinically explore the use of lymphocytes to help cancer patients, earning him the nickname "the Father of Immunotherapy." He won the 1972 Lasker Award.
Klein developed a technique that allowed the separation of whole human blood into its component parts of plasma, platelets, white blood cells, and red blood cells, greatly increasing the efficiency of the entire transfusion process; now three people could benefit from a single donor instead of one, with red blood cells used for anemic individuals, platelets for cancer patients, and plasma for those with decreased blood volume. Klein's results were published in both the New England Journal of Medicine and the Journal of Pediatrics and earned him the first prize for originality of research from the International Society for Hematology in 1956.

Just for Now
|
"Just for Now" is a song by English recording artist and producer Imogen Heap, from her second studio album, Speak for Yourself (2005). Written and produced by Heap, the song was originally written for the second-season episode of the television series The O.C. entitled "The Chrismukkah That Almost Wasn't", but was deemed too dark for the episode. "Just for Now" is an electronica song about a constant mayhem within a holiday environment, in which the singer sings to set aside the disarray for a short time of peace. Heap has performed the song in live performances, which she invites the audience to participate on it. "Just for Now" was covered by American recording artist Kelly Clarkson, for her sixth studio album Wrapped in Red (2013). Her version of the song, produced by Greg Kurstin, musically quotes the Christmas standard "Carol of the Bells" and was met with positive reviews. The song was also sampled in Clams Casino's composition I'm God, featured on both Instrumentals and Lil B's 6 Kiss, and was covered by Pentatonix on their 2015 deluxe edition of their Christmas album That's Christmas to Me.
Background and composition
"Just for Now" was written and produced by Imogen Heap in 2004, intending it to be used for the second second-season episode of the television series The O.C., entitled "The Chrismukkah That Almost Wasn't". But after completing it, the producers ultimately decided that the material was too dark, she cited: "though it was, I think, a little too dark for them. Not quite the toasted marshmallows they had in mind." Tracks such as "Hide and Seek" and "Goodnight and Go" were used on the series' other episodes and soundtracks instead. Heap then decided to record it for her second studio album, Speak for Yourself, which was released in 2005. "Just for Now" is an electronica song about a repeated chaos within a holiday environment, in which the singer sings to set aside the disarray for a short time of peace.
Reception and live performances
Sean Ludwig of the university publication The Maneater wrote that "Just for Now" features just the right number of instruments and amount of emo-tinged lyrics, while The Boars Daniel Mumby noted its similarities with "Hide and Seek". Ayo Jegede of Stylus Magazine wrote that the track "initially pulls in a different direction, mostly using an orchestral score as a backbone, but never quite reaches a fulfilling apex." Heap has also included it in her live performances, most notably the Glastonbury Festival. During the performance of the song, she also invites the audience to participate in it by dividing them into three parts to form a harmony. In a review of the live performance of the song, Laura Sinagra of The New York Times remarked that "The opening grand piano version of her ethereal "Just for Now" turned the album track's compressed "Get me out of here" refrain from what sounds in the recording like the cry of a trapped video game character into a more standard lover's lament."
Kelly Clarkson version
"Just for Now" was covered by American recording artist Kelly Clarkson for her sixth studio album, Wrapped in Red (2013). The song, produced by Greg Kurstin, contains a portion of the composition of the Christmas carol, "Carol of the Bells", whose lyrics were written by Peter J. Wilhousky.
Background
Keith Naftaly, Clarkson's A&R representative at RCA Records, pitched to her the idea of including "Just for Now" for her Christmas album, Wrapped in Red. Clarkson, who was familiar with the song and an admirer of Heap, never thought of recording it, but was nevertheless pleased with the prospect. In an interview on Billboard, she identified it as a literary device to describe her family's dysfunctional environment for years, saying "that was my family Christmas-highly dysfunctional, like, 'Can we just stop for like five minutes and have like a normal Christmas setting?'" She compared it to songs by Joni Mitchell, saying "it's kind of melancholy, but that's very me. I love the reality of that song, some people's Christmas are like that."
Critical reception
In his review for MTV, Brad Stern lauded Clarkson's version of "Just for Now" as the best surprise from Wrapped in Red, he wrote, "Kelly puts her melodic spin on the indie track and makes hectic holiday get-togethers sound so, so beautiful. Basically, Kelly sleighs." Alan Raible of ABC News wrote in his review, "Yes, that is a holiday song disguised in its original album's context, but Clarkson delivers it well. Such an inspired choice earns her some bonus points." Matt Casarino of PopMatters was equivocal, in which he praised her performance but wrote about the risk of covering it, "It’s a fantastic song, mature and self-aware, and Clarkson nails it, but the adult-alternative sound and complex, dysfunctional-family tale may be off-putting to those lulled by the abundance of fireside romance that precedes it." Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine noted that the song's reference to "that time of year" may have appeared to be the sole justification, lyrical or otherwise, for its inclusion.
Chart performance
Clarkson's cover is the only version of "Just for Now" to enter a Billboard chart, by entering the Holiday Digital Songs chart at number 35 on the week ending 16 November 2013.

Isadore Samuel Emanuel
|
Isadore Samuel Emanuel (4 February 1860 – 5 January 1954) was a pastoralist and businessman in Western Australia.
Early life
Emanuel was born in Goulburn in 1860, the son of Solomon Emanuel, Jr. who was a pastoralist and merchant. His grandfather was Samuel Emanuel who had been elected as a member of the Legislative Assembly in New South Wales for the seat of Argyle in 1862.
Both Isadore and his brother, Sydney Phillip, were employed in a Sydney livery stable that was a part of the family business. The Kimberley district in Western Australia was opened up for settlement in 1880 and their father joined with Michael and Patrick Durack in seeking large areas of land for settlement along the Ord River.
Western Australia
In 1881, after the completion of a reconnaissance of the area, the Emanuels resolved to focus on the Fitzroy River valley area in the West Kimberley area. Isadore arrived in 1884 with a flock of 2,860 sheep and established the sheep station, Noonkanbah Station, and the cattle runs, Gogo Station and Lower Liveringa Station.
The Emanuels profited by employing competent managers and earned good returns. By 1894 they established a company with Alexander Forrest, called Forrest, Emanuel and Company, creating an effective monopoly in the live cattle trade between Derby and the southern port of Fremantle with the Emanuels acting as agents in the Kimberley. The brothers expanded their pastoral interests by acquiring Meda and Jubilee Downs Stations.
Following the death of Forrest in 1901, the Emanuels bought his share of the company. At this stage the Emanuels entered into a business partnership in 1902 with Sidney Kidman and acquired a property in the neighbouring Northern Territory, Victoria River Downs Station. The property occupied an area of and was regarded as one of the largest cattle stations in the world.
The Emanuels now controlled a huge area of land in the Kimberley region of Western Australia and Northern Territory with either wholly or partly owned by the brothers. They also held large investments in the meat trade and were briefly the subject of a royal commission as the leaders of a meat ring. In 1909 Kidman and the Emanuels sold Victoria River Downs for £170,000, for which they had paid £20,000, to Bovril Australian Estates.
Emanuel died in London in 1954, leaving an estate worth £721,563, of which assets to the value of £290,897 were in Western Australia.

Role of women in Pakistani media
|
Pakistani media has recently undergone many changes, including the role women play in it. It is striving to create awareness among masses about women’s rights and speaks largely about feminism. In rural areas, women lacked awareness and education however due to media, now they are more aware and the gender pay gap is reducing to a great extent. Many of the people are giving negative opinions regarding the role of media. Media has a detrimental role to play and doesn’t facilitate women in any way. Most of the people were of the opinion that media has projected a negative image of women and brought her weak points to the forefront. The drama industry has a big responsibility to shoulder in this regard.
The drama Zindagi Gulzar Hai was a great success by the media in showing a positive image of women in the society and her cultural importance. Most of the time, media shows negative things regarding women but this drama turned the direction to 180 degrees. This drama especially the role of Kashaf should have resulted in the motivation of many females and families who lack sons. Such dramas must be appreciated and more efforts like this must be done to promote the role of women through media.
Template of Drama
Mostly TV Dramas shows that if boy and girl got in friendship, parents think that they're preparing for marriage by asking that for "for boys: do she cook food?, is she rich?, do she have dowry?", "for girls: did he earns?, do he have money?, do he have bank balance, house, cars?". another way our media shows, that if girl got seriously involved in altercations with boys, or if boy attack girl or vice versa, then only girls got targeted and then parents started doing her marriage without seeing a boy that can he make her happy?, mostly parents says to only girls that he will make you happy, if you don't do marriage to that boy, we'll get divorced".
Moreover, Nabeeha Chaudhary in her research paper argued that in Pakistani TV dramas, Home is shown to be the main domain of power and confinement as well.
Divorces in Drama
Shadi, Talaq, Halala, has become status symbol to them. if we stop them, then mafia will react. It looks like PEMRA is sleeping.

The Nose (magazine)
|
The Nose was a satirical magazine based in San Francisco. It was founded by Jack Boulware and David Latimer in 1988 and published from 1989 to 1995, with 5 issues a year.
Boulware said he conceived of The Nose as "a satirical investigative magazine along the lines of Spy. Except instead of New York and the Ivy League, it would be about the America I knew – the Western U.S., filled with crackers and outlaws and freaks."
Contributors to The Nose included Patton Oswalt, Marc Maron, Will Durst, Greg Proops, Gregg Turkington and Rebecca G. Wilson.
Topics covered by The Nose included: Area 51, Anton LaVey, deaths at Disneyland and Autoerotic asphyxiation with John Deere tractors.
The magazine ceased publication in 1995. Boulware attributes The Noses demise to mismanagement of funds by the magazine's accountant.
Boulware and former Nose staffers and fans held a 20th-anniversary celebration at The Hemlock Tavern in April 2009.

Alejo de Esparza
|
Alejo de Esparza (c. 1638-1700s) was a Basque soldier and merchant, who served as commander of the Fort of Buenos Aires and colonizer of the city in the 17th century. He was the founder of the Esparza family in Río de la Plata, whose paternal branch was extinguished in the eighteenth century. His sons, Joseph de Esparza and Miguel Gerónimo de Esparza were distinguished members of government during the Viceroyalty of Peru.
Biography
Esparza was born 1638 in Lumbier, Navarre, the son of Pedro de Esparza, belonging to illustrious Navarrese families, and Colomba de Garro, daughter of a noble family of French Basque roots. In January 1660, Esparza arrived at the port of Buenos Aires, on the ship "Nuestra Señora de Aranzazu". He had been recruited as a soldier in San Sebastian, place from where the expedition, led by Martin de Telleria, departed to Buenos Aires. The mission of Telleria was to bring weapons and two infantry companies to reinforce the city fortifications.
He was married in Buenos Aires to Escolástica Rodríguez, native of the city and daughter of Alfonso Rodríguez and Trinidad Martínez. The wedding was held on July 5, 1660, in the parish of La Merced (Buenos Aires), witnessed by Juan Ramírez Arellano, born in Santiago, captain of La Serena, who had also served in the fort of Buenos Aires.
Established in the Río de la Plata, Alejo de Esparza devoted himself completely to commerce, being one of the richest merchants in the city. He owned a pulperia and maintained commercial ties with Cádiz. His son, Miguel Gerónimo de Esparza y Rodríguez, served as alcalde and regidor of Buenos Aires. His paternal and maternal surname (Esparza-Garro) belonged to illustrious families of Navarre, possibly descendants of Ramón de Esparza and Pere Arnaut de Garro.

Danny Schmitz
|
Danny Schmitz is an American baseball coach and former second baseman. He played college baseball at Eastern Michigan for coach Ron Oestrike from 1974 to 1977 before playing professionally from 1977 to 1984. He then served as an assistant coach at Eastern Michigan (1988–1990) before becoming the head baseball coach of the Bowling Green Falcons (1991–2020).
Playing career
Schmitz was a four-year letterman at second base for Eastern Michigan, which he helped to a pair of College World Series appearances including the 1976 final. After his senior season, in which he batted .339 and served as a co-captain, he was drafted in the 20th round of the 1977 Major League Baseball Draft by the New York Yankees. Schmitz would go on to play six seasons in the minors, reaching Class AAA in his second season but never reaching the majors. He spent brief time in the New York Mets and Minnesota Twins systems, including a season as a player-coach with the Toledo Mud Hens before retiring and turning full-time to coaching.
Coaching career
Immediately after ending his playing career, he served as manager of the Twins' class-A affiliate Visalia Oaks. He served in that position for three years before returning to Eastern Michigan as an assistant coach. While back with the Hurons, he helped lead EMU to a pair of second-place finishes in 1988 and 1990. He was hired at Bowling Green for his first head coaching job at the collegiate level, just the Falcons ninth coach and fifth since 1928.
While with Bowling Green, the Falcons have claimed four Mid-American Conference regular season titles, seven division titles, and three Mid-American Conference baseball tournament championships. Schmitz has seen 29 players sign professional contracts, while his teams have amassed over 600 wins. Following the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Bowling Green State University announced the termination of the baseball program due to budget cuts during the pandemic, just weeks later, the school announced that it had fund-raised enough money to revive the program effective immediately. On June 3, 2020, it was announced that Schmitz would step down from head coach and step into an advisory role with the program.

Rail squeal
|
Rail squeal is a screeching train-track friction sound, commonly occurring on sharp curves.
Squeal is presumably caused by the lateral sticking and slipping of the wheels across top of the railroad track. This results in vibrations in the wheel that increase until a stable amplitude is reached.
Lubricating the rails has limited success. Speed reduction also appears to reduce noise levels.
The sticking of the rim of the wheel causes the wheel to ring like a bell, so rubber dampers or tuned absorbers are a possible solution to lower the volume. The MBTA Green Line, for example, suffers from severe rail squeal on the sharp curves within the central subway. Flange stick graphite lubricators have been installed on trains to attempt to mitigate the rail squeal issue.
The mechanism that causes the squealing also is the cause of wear and tear that is happening in the wheel–rail interface.
Factors
Factors include:
Accelerating, coasting or braking
Diameter of wheel
Powered or unpowered wheels
Radius of curve
Rail lubrication
Slant of rail (typically 1 in 20)
Superelevation or cant
Type of train
Weather (rails wet or dry) (slippery rail)

SS Josiah Parker was a liberty ship built during World War II by Delta Shipbuilding Company, New Orleans, an EC2-S-C1 Type. The ship was named for Josiah Parker (1751 – 1810), an American politician who was a member of the United States House of Representatives from Virginia in the First through Sixth United States Congresses.
The SS Josiah Parker's Official Number was 242368. It was owned by the United States War Shipping Administration. Its MC Hull No. was 0132. It was laid down on July 16, 1942 and launched September 26, 1942.
Convoy UGS-37, 1944
SS Josiah Parker was one of the 37 ships carrying United States Navy Armed Guards in Convoy UGS-37, April 11–12, 1944.
"They were some 35 miles east of Algiers near midnight of April 11 and 12 when an undetermined number of enemy planes attacked. No ship carrying Armed Guards was hit by the enemy, but several ships received minor damage from the gunfire of other ships. Practically all ships opened fire and the amount of flak falling was quite heavy ... The Josiah Parker reported an explosion on one of the escorts and indicated that she too was hit by shell fragments."
The SS Josiah Parker was sold to private interests in 1947 and scrapped in 1964.

Michael Papas
|
Michael Papas is a Greek-Cypriot independent filmmaker working in England and Cyprus. He is best known for writing, directing and producing The Private Right, The Lifetaker and Tomorrow's Warrior.
Career
The Private Right (1966)
In 1966, Papas made his feature film debut as producer, writer and director of the politically controversial, critically acclaimed The Private Right. Set in Cyprus and London, it concerns a group of Cypriot guerrilla rebels engaged in the uprising against the British colonials. After being captured, a Cypriot guerrilla leader is tortured by a fellow Cypriot who is collaborating with the British army. Years later, the victim travels to London to seek revenge against his torturer. The Private Right premiered at the 1966 London Film Festival and opened at theatres in England in 1967. Papas withdrew the film from competition at the 1967 Sydney Film Festival because of cuts demanded by the Commonwealth Censor Board.
The Sunday Times called the film "a striking debut." Sight & Sound called it "astonishing for a first feature" and added, "Papas achieves a heraldic theatrical power." The British Film Institute's Monthly Film Bulletin called Papas "a director eager to experiment with film form, and more important able to do it with authority." The Times said Papas "manages his box of tricks with striking skill and control, and the image he presents of a weirdly unfamiliar nightmare London… is powerfully haunting."
The Lifetaker (1975)
Papas's 1975 English film The Lifetaker stars Terence Morgan as a deceived husband who engages his wife (Lea Dregorn) and her young lover (Peter Duncan) in a series of deadly games. It had its world premiere at the International Film Festival Rotterdam, where it was both lauded and criticised for its controversial themes of sex and violence and the corruption of youth. According to Papas, the film was scheduled to be released across the UK, but the managing director of EMI distribution cancelled the release after viewing the completed film due to its controversial themes.
In Offbeat, a 2012 collection on British cinema edited by Julian Upton, The Lifetaker is called a “stylish and erotically charged tale of obsession” that is “not only the quintessence of the kind of film they don’t make anymore, but is also radically unlike the kind of film they made even then.” The film is praised for its “consistent use of inch-perfect composition, bold camera moves, sumptuous colour schemes and daring set pieces.”
Tomorrow's Warrior (1981)
Papas’s 1981 film Tomorrow’s Warrior, shot in the UK and Cyprus and also known by its Greek title Avrianos Polemistis, is based on true events from the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus and stars Christos Zannidis. The story concerns a young Cypriot boy and his family who flee their village in advance of a Turkish invasion, struggling to survive in a Greek refugee camp. The Sunday Times called the initial invasion sequence a "stunning, mind-bending centre piece" that "has few equals anywhere in the cinema." The New Statesman wrote that such sequences "portray man's reasonless inhumanity to man everywhere."
Little Odysseus and the Cyclops (2011)
In 2011, Papas returned with Little Odysseus and the Cyclops and Secret Paths, which were filmed one after the other. Little Odysseus and the Cyclops is a modern day retelling of a story from Homer's The Odyssey. The fantasy adventure film premiered at Papas's Acropole Cinemas in Nicosia.
Personal life
Papas was born in Nicosia, Cyprus. His wife, Susan Papas, co-produced his later films with him. Together they own and run the Acropole Cinemas in Nicosia, which they opened in 1995. His son, Minos Papas, is a New York-based filmmaker who was the director of photography on Little Odysseus and the Cyclops and Secret Paths.

Alice Gore King
|
Alice Gore King (July 17, 1914 – May 26, 2007) was a women’s rights entrepreneur, educator, writer, artist, and a native New Yorker. King grew up and spent much of her life working in New York City where she became the chairman of the Remedial Reading Department and later assistant head of the prestigious Brearley School, an all girls private school on the Upper East Side. King went on to start and become the Executor Director of the Alumnae Advisory Center, a career counseling and placement organization for women.
Early life
King was born in New York City on July 17, 1914, to librarian Marion Morrison King (a relative of Elizabeth Cady Stanton) and banker Frederick Gore King (great grandson of Rufus King).
After graduating from the Brearley School, King attended Bryn Mawr College and received a Bachelor of Arts followed by an Master of Arts in psychology.
Career
King began her career in 1942 as Warden and Vocational Adviser at Bryn Mawr College. In 1943, she took a job as Personnel Supervisor at Pratt & Whitney. After World War II, King became the Head of the Psychology Department at the Brearley School, the chairperson of the Remedial Reading Department and later Assistant Head of the School. In 1950, King founded the Alumnae Advisory Center as a career counseling and placement service for college women in New York and served as Executive Director there for 27 years. From 1977 to 1979, King served as a consultant for the center before retiring that year.
Alumni Advisory Center
The Alumnae Advisory Center (1950-early 80s) aimed to help women advance to executive positions, find part-time jobs, or return to work after raising children. The center was located in the Women’s Exchange building, 541 Madison Avenue between 54 and 55 Streets until 1980 when it became known as Council for Career Planning and moved to 310 Madison Avenue. The center first opened with nineteen Founding Member colleges including Barnard College, Bennington College, Bryn Mawr College, Bradford College (United States), Centenary College of New Jersey, Colby, Connecticut, Goucher College, Howard University, Keukia, Middlebury, Pemborke, Sarah Lawrence, Swarthmore, Vassar College, Wells College, Western, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, and Wooster. Members of the Board of Directors included individuals like Sarah Gibson Blanding. Although the center made its services available to men, it was not until the 1970s with newly formed co-educational colleges that its male clientele increased. Dolly Cannon became Executive Director in 1977. The Center moved to 310 Madison Avenue in 1980.
Personal life
King’s writings were published in magazines such as Good Housekeeping and Glamour and in newspapers including The New York Times, The Christian Science Monitor, Today’s Secretary and the Ridgefield Press. King published at least three books including “Women in Business” (Dutton, 1964), “Help Wanted: Female” (Scribner’s, 1968) and “Women And Careers In the Big Apple” (Alumnae Advisory Center, 1983).

Thomas Wyttenbach
|
Thomas Wyttenbach (1472; after 21 September 1526) was one of the reformers of the city of Biel, Switzerland, during the Protestant Reformation.
Biography
Wyttenbach was born in Biel. He studied liberal arts and theology at the University of Tübingen from 1496 to 1504. He was awarded a Baccalaureus (Bachelor's) degree in 1498, a Magister artium (Master of Arts) in 1500, and an apprentice professor (Baccalaureus biblicus; Bachelor of Theology in Biblical Studies) in 1504. In 1505, he moved to the University of Basel, where he worked as Sententiarius. Among his students were Ulrich Zwingli and Leo Jud. In 1507, he became a priest at St Benedict's City Church in Biel. In parallel, Wyttenbach continued his studies and received a Doctor in Theology in 1515.
In the years 1515 to 1520, in addition to his position in Biel, Wyttenbach served as canon (custodian) at the Collegiate Church St. Vincent (Bern Minster) in Bern. From 1520, he worked in Biel until his death.
In the early summer of 1523, Wyttenbach rejected the doctrine of transubstantiation in an exchange of letters with Ulrich Zwingli. Zwingli's reply to Wyttenbach was sent on June 15, 1523.
Wyttenbach married in the summer of 1524 (name of wife unknown), which is why he was dismissed from his sinecure at the City Church. He continued to preach at the commandery of the Order of Saint John in Biel.
Honours
In Biel, a street (Thomas-Wyttenbach-Strasse) and a building of the protestant parish is named after him.

Elwis, Elwis Royal or Elwis Lighting is a Danish technology company, founded in 1938 by Mogens Wilsbech, which designs and manufactures inspection lighting, handlamps, flashlights and gaskets. It sells products in over 30 countries worldwide. Elwis’ founder, Mogens Wilsbech famously created the first functional fluorescent handlamp, in a workshop near his house in 1953.
History
In 1938, Wilsbech founded the company and in the early 1950s, he discovered a number of problems with the conventional incandescent worklights available. This developed his idea to encase a fluorescent bulb in a resilient, clear, butyrate tube. This was marketed as a "Light in a tube" originally with a 21-inch fluorescent bulb encased.
Elwis continues to manufacture fluorescent handlamps in Denmark, which have been a workshop essential for service departments, gasoline service stations and repair garages. The company now has two main divisions; Elwis Lighting manufactures a range of advanced Surface Mounted Diode (SMD) and Chip On Board (COB) Light-emitting diode (LED) worklamps, trouble lights and high specification torches for mechanics. Elwis Royal manufactures a range of gaskets to fit a wide variety of automotive vehicles.

New Zealand Defence Meritorious Service Medal
|
The New Zealand Defence Meritorious Service Medal is a military award of the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF). Established by Royal Warrant 15 October 2013, the medal may be awarded to recognize meritorious exceptional performance, commitment, or innovation. Military and civilian personnel of the NZDF are eligible for this award regardless of rank or time in service. It will supersede the New Zealand Meritorious Service Medal.
Appearance
The New Zealand Defence Meritorious Service Medal is made of silver and circular in shape. The obverse of the medal bears the effigy of the Sovereign, currently the effigy designed by Ian Rank-Broadley, surrounded by the Royal Styles and Titles for New Zealand. The reverse bears the inscriptions FOR MERITORIOUS SERVICE and HE TOHU HIRANGA surrounded by a wreath of fern fronds surmounted by St Edward's Crown. The medal was designed by the New Zealand Herald of Arms, Phillip O’Shea . O’Shea has designed many of the New Zealand awards created since 1973.
The medal is suspended from crimson ribbon, wide, with three central stripes of white, green, and white with two narrow yellow stripes at the edges. Crimson has served as the ribbon color of long service and merit awards, starting with the Army Long Service and Good Conduct Medal in 1830. In 1887, a distinctive New Zealand award the New Zealand Long and Efficient Service Medal utilised a crimson ribbon with two white centre stripes. The imperial Meritorious Service Medal for New Zealand and the subsequent 1985 New Zealand Meritorious Service Medal also used a crimson ribbon, but with a green centre stripe. The ribbon of the New Zealand Defence Meritorious Service Medal integrates the green centre stripe, flanked by two white stripes recalling the history of and linking this medal to the awards that came before. The yellow edge stripes represent achievement or brilliance.
Subsequent awards of the medal will be depicted by bars made of silver and silver-gilt bearing a single fern frond. In undress, when a service ribbon is worn alone, a small silver rosette may be worn on the ribbon for each of the first three bars awarded. When a fourth bar is awarded, the silver rosettes are replaced by a silver-gilt rosette. An additional silver-gilt rosette is worn for each subsequent bar conferred.

The Waßmannsdorf station is a stop of the Berlin S-Bahn in Waßmannsdorf in the municipality of Schönefeld on the Grünau Cross–Berlin Brandenburg Airport railway. It was completed in October 2011 and opened on 26 October 2020, five days before Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) opened on 31 October 2020. A railway station already existed in the village from 1951 to 1982. It was not located at the same place and was exclusively a depot (Betriebsbahnhof) on the Berlin outer ring.
Location
The station is located about southwest of the center of Waßmannsdorf. The Berlin Schönefeld Airport (SXF) is about away, the new Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg (BER) about . The station is located between the village and the Bundesstraße 96a. It belongs to the Berlin C tariff zone of the Verkehrsverbund Berlin-Brandenburg (VBB).

On 10 July 1951 a station called Waßmannsdorf was already opened on the Berlin outer ring. It was located about west of Schönefeld Airport and was on a railroad embankment west of the Dorfstraße. It served only operational purposes and was not open for passenger traffic. The plans from 1951 initially provided for four platforms and three freight tracks. In 1958, an long, northbound passing track was added to the two continuous main tracks. In the course of the three- and four-track expansion of the Berlin outer ring, the site was abandoned on 7 May 1982.
New stop
The new stop was completed on 30 October 2011. Officially, the station has been in existence since 17 June 2011 and is located on the route from Grünauer Kreuz to Berlin Brandenburg Airport. The cost of this project amounted to about seven million euros (as of January 2014), which was financed by the municipality of Schönefeld itself. After the opening of the new airport (BER) was initially delayed even further, 3 June 2012 was set as the opening date for the airport and the stop, which could not be met. The stop in Waßmannsdorf was opened when the airport started operating in 2020.
From the municipality of Schönefeld the wish arose that the S-Bahn Berlin would serve Waßmannsdorf even before the opening of the BER. The S-Bahn Berlin GmbH examined different possibilities, whereby a shuttle train service was considered. On 17 June 2011 Deutsche Bahn announced that it would have trains stop in Waßmannsdorf in 2012. Trains regularly passed through to ventilate the tunnel station of the BER.
Installations
The station is located on a dam in otherwise open fields, south of the village of Waßmannsdorf. There is no direct road connection to the village, because the tracks of the Berlin outer ring lie to the west. Therefore, the only road connection to the station is from the east. The station has two outer platforms, each of which can be reached from the surrounding area via an access structure with stairs and elevators.
The section between Waßmannsdorf and the airport railway station is to be connected via an electronic interlocking in Selchow, with train handling being controlled by a remote monitoring system from Flughafen BER - Terminal 5 station. In the event of a camera failure, trains cannot stop at Waßmannsdorf in the direction of BER Terminal 1-2 without local supervision, because the narrow curve does not allow self-handling by the train driver.
In the direction of BER Terminal 5 (the old Schönefeld station) the driver can handle the train alone, because the platform is located on the inside of the track curve.
Park and ride facilities, and a bus stop, are provided at the forecourt.
ILA
After the ILA Berlin Air Show 2012 had to relocate to the southwest side of the future Berlin Brandenburg Airport, it was initially planned that a large part of the visitor traffic on the public days would be handled by the Waßmannsdorf station, which is located near the new exhibition grounds. However, the Federal Police prohibited its use shortly before the exhibition began, because the station was too small for the expected stream of visitors. There was particular criticism that the platforms were too narrow and that there was only one elevator and one staircase per platform. When planning the station, possible visitor traffic for the ILA had not been taken into account. The station was financed exclusively by the municipality of Schönefeld and was designed only to meet its needs, i.e. the site itself, a future industrial estate and airport employees. Messe Berlin had convinced the Bundesverband der Deutschen Luft- und Raumfahrtindustrie (BDLI) to continue the ILA in Schönefeld, partly because of the favourable transport links via the S-Bahn, but did not get involved in the planning of the station. A provisional extension of the station would have cost 400,000 €, which nobody wanted to raise. In addition, the operational management would have been complicated: Since there are no turnouts in Waßmannsdorf, the trains from Waßmannsdorf would have had to travel empty to BER airport and back from there. Public transport for the ILA 2012 and also 2014 was therefore only possible with shuttle buses and cabs.

Bloodshed (song)
|
"Bloodshed" is a Soulfly song, played as the first track of the Soulfly's Savages album. "Bloodshed" is the first Soulfly single released by the band's new label, Nuclear Blast (previously Roadrunner). This song premiered on the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show on August 6, 2013, two days before single was officially released.
Max Cavalera and his son Igor Cavalera Jr. wrote and sing this song together. Igor's punk vocals satisfied Max by explaining to Metal Exiles, "I needed a punk vocalist for the chorus and I was missing a punk vocalist to go with my vocals for the chorus. I knew Igor had a great punk voice so I called him because I knew it would be cool to sing with my son on the song."
Lyrics and composition
Max said this: "The song is about the absurdity of the human condition in territories plagued by bloodshed all over the world. Not just recent events like Iraq, but also historical conflicts such as the U.S. Civil War, World Wars I and II, etc." During choruses, 'bloodshed' often pairs with 'wasteland' in lyrics.
Bloodshed plays at mid-tempo with few tribal sounds, specifically using a didgeridoo and a tribal drum.
Music video
The music video for this song is available. The video depicts performers along with war involving classic weapons and uniforms used in the U.S. Civil War in the same spot where the battle took place.

Cyclone Sose
|
Tropical Cyclone Sose was a moderate storm system that chiefly impacted the island nation of Vanuatu in early April 2001. The developing cyclone was first detected on April 3, while situated well to the northeast of Vanuatu. As atmospheric conditions became more conducive to intensification, the disturbance gradually consolidated as it drifted toward the west-southwest. After receiving the name Sose on April 5, the cyclone was driven southeastward, passing just west of Espiritu Santo and neighboring islands. Although it never made landfall, Sose was particularly expansive, producing a wide area of gale-force winds. The cyclone peaked in strength between April 7 and 8 with maximum 10-minute sustained winds of and 1-minute sustained winds of , placing it at Category 2 intensity on the Australian tropical cyclone intensity scale. Ultimately, stronger wind shear and an increasingly hostile upper-air pattern took their toll on the cyclone as it progressed due south; Sose lost tropical characteristics to the northeast of Norfolk Island by April 12. The extratropical remnants of Sose continued into the Tasman Sea.
Occurring just two months after Cyclone Paula affected Vanuatu, Sose compounded the damage already done by the previous storm, especially to crops and farmlands. Throughout the island chain, two people died to the storm. Roadways were blocked by debris and floodwaters, while schools and classrooms on several islands were damaged or ruined. The storm destroyed about 200 homes around the nation and damaged many more, particularly on southern Espiritu Santo. The storm's large fetch generated enormous swells as far away as Australia's Eastern Seaboard, where surfers took advantage of the abnormally intense conditions and two swimmers drowned. On Maré Island in New Caledonia, a man was swept away by a large wave and presumed dead. The storm later produced torrential rainfall and strong winds over the North Island of New Zealand, sparking damaging freshwater floods and downing trees and power lines. Hazardous driving conditions in the Waikato region led to a fatal traffic accident in which three people died. Another individual drowned in a swollen river. Sose reportedly contributed to coastal flooding as far away as Tonga. In all, Sose killed nine people; total monetary damage is unknown. As a result of the storm's destruction, its name was later retired.
Meteorological history
Cyclone Sose originated in a broad area of disturbed weather first identified on April 3, well to the east-northeast of Vanuatu.
The system initially drifted generally toward the west under an improving upper-level wind shear pattern that began to catalyze favorable outflow. Late on April 4, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert on the disturbance, noting strong banding features and a well-defined low-level center of circulation. Tropical Depression 13F formed at 1200 UTC next day as examined by the Fiji Meteorological Service (FMS), the local Regional Specialized Meteorological Center. At the time, the new cyclone was situated about to the northwest of Espiritu Santo. The JTWC's official "best track" entry on the storm—designated 19P—first lists it as a tropical depression at 1800 UTC on April 4, though operationally, the agency did not issue its first tropical cyclone warning until late on April 5. The storm proceeded slowly westward and gradually continued to organize, its intensification hindered by residual wind shear and its proximity to the mountainous terrain of Espiritu Santo. However, convection over the center continued to develop, and consequently the FMS upgraded 13F to Tropical Cyclone Sose at 1800 UTC.
Sose remained nearly stationary for a period of 24 hours, blocked by a strong subtropical ridge to the south. Over the course of April 6, an approaching mid-level trough of low pressure created a weakness in the ridge, allowing Sose to accelerate southeastward. The storm's environment steadily improved in both the lower and upper levels, triggering the consolidation of deep convection around the center. As a result, early on April 7, a central dense overcast formed. According to the FMS, Sose reached its peak strength at 1800 UTC, with maximum 10-minute sustained winds of and a central barometric pressure of . The cyclone passed just to the west of the islands of Vanuatu as its outer bands contracted around the well-defined central dense overcast. A large feeder band persisted on the eastern side of the circulation, bridging the northwestern southeastern quadrants. The feature became a notable aspect of the cyclone's satellite presentation. The JTWC estimated that 19P reached its peak intensity at 1200 UTC on April 8, possessing 1-minute sustained winds of and gusts up to . The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission imaged the storm shortly thereafter, and revealed a distinct eye about across, bounded on the southern semicircle by strong convection activity.
Sose made its closest approach to New Caledonia early on April 8, passing about to the northeast. A strong area of high pressure over New Zealand served to tighten to surface pressure gradient well to the south of Sose's center, contributing to an overall very large envelope of gale-force winds. In turn, the cyclone affected numerous islands on both side of its path, despite never having made landfall. As it progressed on its southeastward track, the cyclone began to show signs of weakening, at least partially due to increasing wind shear from an approaching upper trough. At the same time, a mid-level ridge to the east forced the storm to turn due south; the conflicting wind patterns undermined the cyclone's circulation, causing its center at the surface to separate from the deep convection. Both the FMS and the JTWC reflected steady weakening, and by early on April 10, the center had become exposed and ill-defined. Sose then entered the area of responsibility of the Tropical Cyclone Warning Center in Wellington, New Zealand, where it continued to deteriorate. The JTWC issued its last warning on 19P at 0600 UTC on April 11, while the system was located about northeast of Norfolk Island. TCWC Wellington soon downgraded Sose to a tropical depression as it underwent an extratropical transition. Drifting south-southwestward, the cyclone lost its tropical identity early on April 12. The remnant low ultimately moved over the Tasman Sea, where it was absorbed by a broad low pressure system about to travel over New Zealand's North Island. Abundant residual tropical moisture acted on the low pressure environment to create widespread precipitation across northern New Zealand.
Impact and aftermath
Prior to the storm's passage of New Caledonia, residents there were advised to take basic precautions, such as remaining indoors during bouts of inclement weather. Storm warnings were hoisted over the Loyalty Islands and South Province. Vanuatu's Department of Meteorology began posting official alerts on April 7. Warnings for heavy rains and strong winds were posted throughout northern New Zealand in anticipation of the storm's remnants. With Easter weekend, more motorists were already expected to be traveling longer distances, and officials grew concerned of dangerous effects on traffic from the cyclone. Police increased their presence to unprecedented levels in an attempt to control speeding and other hazardous behaviors.
Due to the storm's "negative impact on one or more countries", Sose was retired from the cyclical list of tropical cyclone names;
Vanuatu
Sose predominately affected the western islands of Vanuatu, starting from the north. Most severely impacted were the islands of Espiritu Santo, Malakula, Aoba, Efate, Erromango, Tanna, Aneityum, and the Shepherd Islands. In several locations, Sose compounded or worsened the destruction wrought by Cyclone Paula in late February and early March. The storm produced significant precipitation, heavy seas, and sustained winds exceeding .
A resident of Malakula was struck and killed by a falling coconut while seeking shelter from the worsening conditions. Agriculture on nearby Ahamb Island, already impaired by Paula, was further compromised; all crops, both those remaining after Paula and those planted in the intervening time, were destroyed. Four classrooms on the small island were also damaged beyond use. Buildings on Aoba incurred appreciable damage, while on Efate, the storm brought down utility poles, severely damaged local schools, and left roads covered with debris and floodwaters. Flooding in the nation's capital city of Port Vila forced 50 residents to leave their homes in search of higher ground. Espiritu Santo, particularly the island's south shore around Luganville, bore the brunt of Cyclone Sose. Several types of crops (also weakened by Paula) took a heavy beating, and 60 people had to evacuate due to encroaching floods. In total, the storm demolished 59 houses on the island and in some way damaged another 101. A young child drowned after being swept away while attempting to cross a swollen waterway. Just offshore, the M/V Omale succumbed to the heavy seas; all 16 of its occupants successfully swam four hours to shore.
Overall, the Vanuatu National Disaster Management Office estimated at least 50% each of food crops and buildings in the hardest-hit provinces were left in a state of damage. The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs considered about 200 residences throughout the island nation "lost" to the storm. The National Disaster Committee met on April 9 to discuss potential emergency aid for residents of the areas hardest hit by cyclones Sose and Paula. Around the same time, the Vanuatu Red Cross stated that it would distribute supplies such as materials for makeshift shelters and water purification tablets. The Red Cross was also to provide 500 bags of rice to villages in the Shepherd Islands. Political unrest on a national level limited the government's attention to initial recovery; it did not immediate declare a state of emergency or file any requests for international aid.
New Zealand and Australia
The remnants of Cyclone Sose were a significant factor in stormy weather over the North Island of New Zealand between April 12 and April 14. Numerous locations received of rainfall, and of precipitation fell at Glenbervie, Northland region, in just seven hours. The heavy rainfall rates caused "significant" flooding of low-lying roads and farmlands in the region. Floodwaters inundated the township of Kaeo and entered several local businesses. The swollen Kaeo River temporarily rendered New Zealand State Highway 10 impassable to most vehicles at a bridge over the waterway. A hospital became isolated from the rest of the town. Further to the west, State Highway 1 was blocked by flooding at Rangiahua, as was State Highway 2 between Te Puke and Te Maunga Junction. At the former, the rains triggered a landslide and polluted the local supply of drinking water. Several residences throughout the region sustained damage. A 22-year-old man drowned in high waters along the Wairoa River. Rising waters from the Kerikeri River threatened to affect the Mission House, the nation's oldest surviving building, where staff were on standby to relocate furnishings if necessary.
A severe traffic accident occurred on State Highway 28 at Tapapa, Waikato, on the morning of April 13. The head-on collision was attributed to slick roads resulting from the storm. Three individuals were killed and two more were hospitalized. Several other accidents were reported around the same time. In addition to the rainfall, strong winds brought down trees and utility poles across the island and as far south as Marlborough on the South Island. There, the strong winds fanned a large fire ignited by sparks from downed power lines. The fire covered more than 70 hectares (175 acres) of land and prompted several families to evacuate their homes. Three people were injured at Ohakune after a temporary tent collapsed at a local festival. Along the coast, swells triggered by Sose reached in height.
The tight pressure gradient between Cyclone Sose and the ridge to its south generated extremely rough seas along the eastern coast of Australia, especially Queensland. Along the state's southern shore, normally protected from strong swells, waves were as high as and frequently between . A 53-year-old man and his 9-year-old son both drowned in the heavy surf near Gladstone on April 8. Offshore Kingscliff, New South Wales, a yacht capsized, forcing its two occupants to swim to land. The large swells proved popular with experienced surfers looking for a challenge. Although the event became infamous within local surfing circles, at least one surfer was hospitalized after being swept against rocks, and several others required rescue. Some beach erosion was reported in several locations, leading to minor sandbagging efforts to hamper the erosion.
Elsewhere
A large wave breaking on the cliffs of Maré Island in New Caledonia swept away a spectator, who was presumed dead after the rough conditions delayed searching efforts. The storm disrupted classes and school activities in parts of the archipelago, but little to no damage was reported.
The distant cyclone sent large swells toward Tonga and Samoa, coinciding with high astronomical tides. Coastal flooding on low-lying islands of Tonga reportedly destroyed houses and crops.

Blood Fire War Hate
|
"Blood Fire War Hate" is a Soulfly song, released in 2009 from the 2008 album Conquer. It is the 14th single released by Soulfly and second released from that sixth studio album.
Cavalera's excitement for this song
Max Cavalera commented on the Roadrunner website about this song, "I'm excited to open the record with a fast song. Usually Soulfly albums begin mid-tempo, but this reminds me of 'Beneath the Remains.' This song also has one of the biggest hooks I've ever done. I can close my eyes and picture huge festival crowds singing it. When the fast part comes in, it's just war." David Vincent, Morbid Angel frontman, is the guest that greatly satisfied Cavalera, "His screaming on that song was off the wall!"
Lyrics
The lyrics explore each word of the song title, when hate fuels war involving fire resulting in blood. 'Blood, Fire, War, Hate' is repeated 36 times during the song including 18 lines in a row to start the song and 10 in a row to end it, plus the extension 'Blood Fire War Hate will never end' to end the chorus. Variations of Blood Fire War Hate are sung, such as 'Blood, Fire, Hell, Heaven', 'Blood, Fire, War, Kill', and 'Blood, Fire, War, Dust'. The song lyrics was written by Max Cavalera of Soulfly and David Vincent of Morbid Angel.

Michele Borghetti (born 13 March 1973) is an Italian grandmaster of international draughts, Italian draughts and English draughts (also known as "American checkers" or "straight checkers"). In English draughts he was world champion in both 3-move and GAYP variations.
Borghetti won the 2010 WCDF World Qualifier to earn the right to challenge defending champion Alex Moiseyev in the 2011 3-Move World Title Match. The match took place in Cleveland and was won by Moiseyev. At the 2012 World Mind Sports Games in Lille, Borghetti won the gold medal in the checkers tournament, which was doubled as the World Qualifying Tournament. This victory enabled him to qualify again for the world title match with Moiseyev and on 28 June 2013, Borghetti became the 3-Move Checkers World Champion. In 2015 he successfully defended his world title against Lubabalo Kondlo in Livorno, his native city.
In 2016, in Rome, Borghetti won the GAYP World Title Match against defending champion Sergio Scarpetta. In May 2017, Borghetti won the first 3-Move European Championship. Later in the same year, in September, he lost the 3-move world title match, which took place in Livorno, against Scarpetta. In 2018, he lost the GAYP World Title Match to Lubabalo Kondlo in Petal, Mississippi, United States by a score of 15–25.
He also holds a record for playing "blind simultaneous" games of Italian draughts.

Change for a Dollar
|
Change for a Dollar is a short film by Sharon Wright. The short movie follows a seemingly homeless man wander through the course of a day, in which he gives away the dollar in change that was dumped into his tin can. Following the course of how the "dollar" was used, the viewer essentially gets an eye-opening opportunity to watch lives changed, based on the premise that it doesn't take much to make a difference.
The film was filmed in a single day in Osawatomie, Kansas on March 13, 2010, with the assistance of several Kansas City, Missouri film makers, and a small cast. To date the video as posted on YouTube (see "Change for a dollar" ) has had more than 2,700,000 views where it is stated to be "One of the MOST VIEWED films in schools nationwide".
The film has won several awards including two regional Emmy awards, and two Telly Awards in 2012, and several others. Famous film critic Roger Ebert commented in his December 7, 2011 newsletter that "It touched me. Sharon Wright. Remember that name."
