title: Enigma Technologies

text:
Enigma Technologies, Inc., is a data science company headquartered in New York City that specializes in providing data and intelligence about businesses. The company is mainly known for Enigma Public, a now defunct library of public data.

Using machine learning and artificial intelligence, the company organizes and connects hundreds of sources to provide data about businesses for customers in a variety of use cases, from financial services compliance to B2B marketing and insurance underwriting and lending. Enigma works with a number of Fortune 500 companies, including American Express, ADP, BB&T, Celgene, Merck, and PayPal.

History
Enigma Technologies, Inc. was founded by Marc DaCosta (Chairman, co-founder) and Hicham Oudghiri (CEO, co-founder). The founders' curiosity was drawn into focus by the 2008 financial crisis and the effects of climate change. They were frustrated that relevant public data was available, and should have shed light on these two occurrences, but the world still struggled to connect the dots to understand how and why these crises happened or to stop both altogether. They sought to make data connected, open, and actionable – and Enigma was born. The company currently has more than 100 employees and is headquartered in NYC's Silicon Alley.

Enigma was launched at the three-day 2013 TechCrunch Disrupt Conference, and was the winner of the event's Startup Battlefield. In February 2013 they announced a $1.1 million seed funding round backed by TriplePoint Capital and Crosslink Capital, among others. This was augmented in early 2014 by a $4.5 million funding round which included additional investors The New York Times Company, Comcast Ventures, and American Express Ventures.

In June 2013, the company announced a long-term beta testing partnership with Stanford University and Harvard University, granting full access to their students and academic communities. In October 2013, the company was a finalist in the NYCEDC-sponsored "Take the HELM: Hire + Expand in Lower Manhattan" contest, and in June 2014 they were selected as participants in the FinTech Innovation Lab program.

In August 2014, Enigma announced that Jeremy Bronfman would step down as CEO and be replaced by Hicham Oudghiri.

In June 2015, Enigma secured a $28.2 million Series B funding round led by New Enterprise Associates (NEA) with participation from Two Sigma Ventures and New York City Investment Fund, as well as existing investors including American Express Ventures, Comcast Ventures and The New York Times Company.

In April 2017, Enigma moved its website to Enigma.com from its previous site, Enigma.io, and ceased referring to itself with the ".io" qualifier.

Enigma was named to Forbes FinTech 50 List in February 2018.

In September 2018, Enigma announced $95 million in new funds to expand its network and platform that connects real-world and enterprise data to power key workflows. Existing investor NEA led this funding, which included new investments from strategic FinTech investors BB&T, Capital One Growth Ventures, MetLife and Third Point along with venture firm Glynn Capital. Early investors Comcast Ventures, Crosslink Capital, Two Sigma Ventures, and the Partnership Fund for NYC also participated. This was the inaugural investment for both BB&T and MetLife.

Enigma Public
Enigma Public was a data warehouse website which provided an aggregated collection of public data from international government agencies, organizations, and businesses. It was at one point the broadest collection of public data that is open and searchable by everyone, and could be accessed through Enigma's web-based user interface, which also provided a collection of data analytics tools. Users could register for a free rate-limited account to receive programmatic access via their web API, while unfettered or commercial access was available for a fee.

Data republished by Enigma was reusable (with attribution) for free by journalists, so it was occasionally used as a primary or corroborating source for analyses on everything from FBI aerial surveillance to house fire incidents to U.S. government shipping records.

The company redesigned and updated Enigma Public in June 2017 in an effort to make public data more accessible and easy to use. This redesign included features that enabled users to identity connections and interpretations within the data quickly and easily by focusing metadata and linked datasets. The updated platform also curated featured datasets and collections, including those obtained by Freedom of Information Act requests.

In August 2018, Enigma released a Python SDK for Enigma Public, designed to make it easier to locate and import public data into a Jupyter notebook or any other Python project using the Enigma Public API.

Enigma Public was deactivated on March 24, 2020.

Enigma Labs
Enigma has built a number of open data tools that serve a public good, called Enigma Labs. Each project sheds light on critical topics of the day and enables and informs civic action.

The company's first Lab was launched in October 2013, as a real-time visualization tracking how the United States federal government shutdown of 2013 impacted employees of every government agency.

In 2014, Enigma partnered with the City of New Orleans to better identify which neighborhoods were least likely to have smoke alarms. This project, called Smoke Signals, was soon scaled to cities across the United States in partnership with DataKind and the American Red Cross. The tool uses data from the American Housing Survey and American Community Survey to create a block-level assessment of whether residents are likely to have a working smoke alarm in more than 175 cities in the United States and is available as an interactive map and downloadable CSV files. Cities can also upload their own historical fire incident data to improve the model for their area.

Data
Enigma combines hundreds of public and private sources of data, including government agencies, organizations, and websites, into a single database. Enigma has obtained a vast amount of data via Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, including New York Metropolitan Transit Authority accident reports and a log of all FOIA requests made to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Enigma provides free basic firmographic data about millions of U.S. businesses via its API.

Features
Enigma provides access to its data through a web-based graphical user interface and an API. Tools are provided in the interface for performing basic statistical analysis, such as finding the minimum, maximum or mean value of any numerical data column. For further analysis, users may either use the interface to export data to a CSV file or make HTTP requests to the provided API. The company also produces interactive data visualizations which provide visual interfaces for particular individual datasets.

On May 11, 2016, Enigma announced the launch of ParseKit, now called "Concourse", their proprietary software for ETL and data integration, which had been developed internally via dogfooding to acquire their public datasets.

In September 2018, Enigma announced its use of knowledge graphs as the vehicle for ingesting, standardizing, and adapting data from tables into representations of relationships delivered to users. Enigma uses linking, ontology mapping, and entity resolution capabilities to uncover new information about businesses and to deliver linked information through an API. Enigma's knowledge graphs integrate machine learning of Elasticsearch results, to improve entity resolution.

title: 1926 State of the Union Address

text:
The 1926 State of the Union Address was given by Calvin Coolidge, the 30th United States President, on Monday, December 6, 1926, to the United States House of Representatives, and the United States Senate. It was his fourth address to a joint session. He said,

Basic quotes
"The social well-being of our country requires our constant effort for the amelioration of race prejudice and the extension to all elements of equal opportunity and equal protection under the laws which are guaranteed by the Constitution. The Federal Government especially is charged with this obligation in behalf of the colored people of the Nation. Not only their remarkable progress, their devotion and their loyalty, but, our duty to ourselves under our claim that we are an enlightened people requires us to use all our power to protect them from the crime of lynching."
We need ideals that can be followed in daily life, that can be translated into terms of the home. We can not expect to be relieved from toil, but we do expect to divest it of degrading conditions. Work is honorable; it is entitled to an honorable recompense. We must strive mightily, but having striven there is a defect in our political and social system if we are not in general rewarded with success.
To relieve the land of the burdens that came from the war, to release to the individual more of the fruits of his own industry, to increase his earning capacity and decrease his hours of labor, to enlarge the circle of his vision through good roads and better transportation, to lace before him the opportunity for education both in science and in art, to leave him free to receive the inspiration of religion, all these are ideals which deliver him from the servitude of the body and exalt him to the service of the soul. Through this emancipation from the things that are material, we broaden our dominion over the things that are spiritual.

title: Lagunitas Formation, Cuba

text:
The Lagunitas Formation is a geologic formation in Cuba. The open marine, fluvio-deltaic and lagoonal claystones, limestones and conglomerates preserve fossils dating back to the Early Miocene period. Among others, the fossil primate Paralouatta marianae, the largest primate of the Miocene New World, was found in the formation. Based on microfossils, the age has been determined as Burdigalian.

Description
The type locality designated by Popov is a small outcrop located  east of Trinidad, on the highway linking Trinidad and Banao. The youngest lithostratigraphic unit overlain by Lagunitas is the Oligocene Las Cuevas Formation in the type section. Lagunitas is in turn overlain by the Middle Miocene Güines Formation and younger sediments.

Regional correlation
Partial temporal and lithological equivalents of the Lagunitas Formation situated elsewhere in Cuba include the Arabos, Paso Real, Rosario and Magantilla Formations. In Hispaniola, the formation can be roughly correlated in age and lithology
with the Maissade and Yanigua Formations. In Puerto Rico the most similar unit is the Cibao Formation.

title: Neonatal hypocalcemia

text:
Neonatal hypocalcemia is an abnormal clinical and laboratory hypocalcemia condition that is frequently observed in infants. It is commonly presented within the first 72 hours of a newborn's life. Neonatal hypocalcemia can cause seizures in infants requiring a calcium infusion until homeostasis is achieved; allowing for positive clinical outcomes within weeks of treatment.

Healthy term infants go through a physiological nadir of serum calcium levels at 7.5 - 8.5 mg/dL by day 2 of life. Hypocalcemia is a low blood calcium level. A total serum calcium of less than 8 mg/dL (2mmol/L) or ionized calcium less than 1.2 mmol/L in term neonates is defined as hypocalcemia. In preterm infants, it is defined as less than 7mg/dL (1.75 mmol/L) total serum calcium or less than 4mg/dL (1 mmol/L) ionized calcium.

Both early onset hypocalcemia (presents within 72h of birth) and late onset hypocalcemia (presents in 3-7 days after birth) require calcium supplementation treatment.

Infants with intrauterine growth retardation, perinatal asphyxia, preterm, and diabetic mothers are most likely to develop neonatal hypocalcemia. It is not understood why premature infants have hypocalcemia, but a proposed idea is that a large increase of calcitonin may lead to hypocalcemia. Another hypothesis includes impaired secretion of parathyroid hormone.

Cause
Risk factors of early neonatal hypocalcemia
 Prematurity
 Perinatal asphyxia
 Diabetes mellitus in the mother
 Maternal hyperparathyroidism
 Intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR)
 Iatrogenic

Risk factors
Risk factors of late neonatal hypocalcemia
 Exogenous phosphate load
 Use of gentamicin
 Gender and ethnic: late neonatal hypocalcemia occurred more often in male infants and Hispanic infants
 Others
 Magnesium deficiency
 Vitamin D deficiency
 Transient hypoparathyroidism of newborn
 Hypoparathyroidism due to other causes (DiGeorge Syndrome)

title: Ganton Street

text:
Ganton Street is a street in central London that runs between Marshall Street and Kingly Street. It is crossed by Carnaby Street, and Newburgh Street joins it on its north side. The street is in a part-pedestrianised area dominated by independent clothing shops and restaurants, and on upper floors, offices, particularly media companies. Immediately to the east of Regent Street, Ganton Street is variously described as being in the West End, Soho, and "Carnaby" areas.

History

Ganton Street was formerly Cross Court and South Row.

Listed buildings
Numbers 2 to 8, 10 and 12, and 24 are all listed buildings with English Heritage. Number 21 Carnaby Street, on the corner with Ganton Street, is also listed.

Occupants
Property company and major London landlord Shaftesbury plc has acquired significant holdings in the Carnaby Street area and their registered office is at 22 Ganton Street.

Designer James Wedge had premises at 4 Ganton Street in about 1962. When Wedge moved out, designers Marion Foale and Sally Tuffin took over the building. Foale described the atmosphere at the time, before Carnaby Street began to swing, as follows: "People lived there, there was a dairy, a tobacconist, a newsagent – there was this little courtyard and everything … a proper village, though very run down."

Peter Small's clothes shop The Foundry was at 12 Ganton Street, a listed building, in the early 1980s. Boy George worked there as a window dresser and the shop sold the creations of Sue Clowes, which were worn by bands including Culture Club, The Cure, and Bananarama. The shop is now MOR Jewellery.

Cultural commentator Stephen Bayley has offices at 23 Ganton Street.

The Gold brothers' Lord John men's fashion chain had their first shop at 43 Carnaby Street, on the corner with Ganton Street, that featured a large mural painted by the pop art collective Binder, Edwards and Vaughan. Other work by the trio included Paul McCartney's piano and the car seen on the cover of The Kinks' Sunny Afternoon EP from 1966.

Giant plug and socket

An outsize plug and socket has been a feature of the façade of the electrical substation on the corner of Ganton Street and Marshall Street since 2001. Plug and Socket was installed by James Glancy Design as a piece of urban art to enliven an otherwise dull building. It has had a number of different designs over the years and the whole item, including the cable, lights up at night.

title: 10K, la década robada

text:
10K, la década robada (Spanish for "10K, the stolen decade") is a 2014 nonfiction book written by Argentine journalist Jorge Lanata. The name makes reference to Kirchnerism, described by its supporters as "the earned decade"; the letter K is usually used as a symbol of the political movement.

Content
Lanata wrote the book detailing things that he had seen during the governments of Néstor Kirchner and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner. He detailed issues that, according to him, were overlooked before their presidencies, such as the "strong state interventionism" during Kirchner's rule of Santa Cruz. He also commented that he did not mention his suspicions about the corruption charges over the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo before the Schoklender scandal because of respect for their careers. He also included information about "the route of the K money" scandal, and his view over the ongoing development of the case. He also details the alleged attempts of Fernández de Kirchner government to manipulate the media.

title: La Toca Formation

text:
The La Toca Formation is a geologic formation in the northern and eastern part of the Dominican Republic. The formation, predominantly an alternating sequence of marls and turbiditic sandstones, breccias and conglomerates, is renowned for the preservation of insects and other arthropods in amber, known as Dominican amber. The formation is dated to the Burdigalian to Langhian stages of the Miocene period (Hemingfordian in the NALMA classification).

Description

La Toca Formation was first defined by Redmond in 1982. The formation mainly consists of marls and turbiditic sandstones and conglomerates deposited in the northeastern part of Hispaniola. The formation overlies the Los Hidalgos Formation and is overlain by the La Jaiba Conglomerate and in places by the Villa Trina Formation. It is laterally and time-equivalent with the Altamira and Luperón Formations and the Agua Clara Unit.

Esperanza
In the vicinity of Esperanza, La Toca Formation is cropping out in the northeast of the geologic map, while it is also present in the neighboring municipalities of Imbert and San Francisco Arriba. The formation in this area comprises rhythmic alternations of ochre fine-to-medium-grained, locally grading to course-grained sandstones and greyish clayey and ochre marls. This succession is locally cut by meters thick microconglomerates and conglomerates with rounded and subrounded clasts. Analysis of the clasts in San Francisco Arriba shows the clasts consist of up to ten percent of volcanic rock fragments, mainly limestone fragments (23-42%), quartz (8-33%), chert of up to five percent and minor metamorphic rock fragments. The matrix which comprises about a quarter of the volume is micritic.

The formation is in this area poor in microfossils, although foraminifera of Catapsydrax af. dissimilis, Globigerinoides trilobus, Globigerina sp., Globorotalia sp., Cibicides sp., Brizalina sp., Reophax sp., ?Cassidulina sp. and Pirgo sp. have been found in the succession.

Turbidite deposition moved to the northeast during the Miocene.

Tectonics and depositional environment

La Toca Formation is in places inverted and put in contact with the San Marcos Formation along the Camú Fault. The Septentrional Fault bounds the formation to the south.

Individual outcrops
The formation crops out in the provinces Puerto Plata and Hermanas Mirabal.

Puerto Plata
In Puerto Plata Province, two sections of La Toca Formation are visible. The type section along the Bajabonico River shows volcaniclastic breccias with clasts originating from the Pedro García Formation. The breccias are poorly stratified and contain angular clasts of vesicular basalts and andesites, polymictic conglomerates of various provenance and chlorite-rich feldspathic arenites. This sequence is overlain by bluish-grey marls and black silty shales with conglomeratic intercalactions.

A second outcrop in Puerto Plata shows a less typical debris flow setting, with a varied sedimentological character.

Hermanas Mirabal
The section of La Toca Formation in Hermanas Mirabal Province displays a thick series of matrix supported conglomerates. The clasts of these massively bedded conglomerates are characterized by two main lithology types; tuff and limestone. The limestone clasts are dark grey and white, where the light colored limestones contain carbonate platform fauna including corals. The clasts are well-rounded and medium-sized. The succession increases upwards in bedding thickness where limestone clasts become more dominant, larger in size and more angular. The total visible thickness of the succession is approximately .

The sequence of conglomerates and provenance of the clasts point to sedimentation in a deltaic to shallow marine environment, where the clasts were transported by fluvial systems in the hinterland.

Paleontological significance

La Toca Formation is one of the formations of the Dominican Republic where Dominican amber is found. The amber is known for the many types of insects and other arthropods it contains and even mammalian hair, a leptodactylid frog and a gilled mushroom have been discovered in the Dominican amber. Decades of study have led to an increased understanding of the invertebrate terrestrial fauna of the subtropical Early Miocene. Several genera have been described on the basis of these inclusions in resin from the fossil Hymenaea protera tree and the many fossils found in the amber provided a unique insight in the paleobiology of the Caribbean of the time. Of the 82 genera of spiders in Dominican amber, one third are extinct and about thirty percent are congeneric with extant taxa.

Fossil content
The following fossils have been found in the formation:

Reception
Jayamanmadhan of Kalki praised the acting of Sivaji Ganesan and Karthik, humour and Shankar–Ganesh's music but panned the item numbers and emotional flashback of Ganesan calling them unnecessary and felt it would have been a full length comedy film if this flashback was not incorporated in the film.

title: Luís do Rego Barreto

text:
Luís do Rego Barreto, Viscount Geraz Lima, (28 October 1777, Viana do Castelo – 7 September 1840, Vila Real) better known as General Luis Rego, was a Portuguese military officer and colonial administrator who distinguished himself in the fight against the French invasion of Portugal.

Early life
Natural son of António Rego Barreto - army officer, adjutant of the 2nd Earl of Bobadela when he was Governor of weapons of Minho -was legitimized by his father in 1786, enlisted in 1790 at age 13, at the Infantry Regiment of Lippe, the Lisbon garrison, being lieutenant when the French invaded Portugal in 1807.

Having asked to resign when the Portuguese army, it was reorganized in early 1808, he returned to Viana do Castelo. When Porto rose against collaboration with the French occupiers, Luis organized a Provisional Government Junta in Viana do Castelo, who promoted him to major and instructed to organize the 9th Infantry Regiment, garrison of the city.

Peninsular War
Organized the 4th Caçador Battalion of Beira, in Viseu, having participated with him in the 1808-1811 campaigns, the Battle of Buçaco, in 1810, to Battle of Pombal, in the beginning of the withdrawal of the army of Massena, and the Battle of Fuentes de Oñoro in 1811. participated in the Siege of Ciudad Rodrigo and, as commander of 15th Infantry Regiment, the Siege of Badajoz. Was present at the Battle of Salamanca in 1812 and the Battle of Vitoria in 1813. Their performance in the Siege of San Sebastián was critical, able to cross the gulf separating the allied army from the fortress with his regiment and scaled the walls, managing to take it in September 1813.

Luís commanded the 3rd Portuguese Brigade of the Army until 1815.

Governor of Pernambuco
In 1817 he was appointed governor of the Captaincy of Pernambuco. He was hated by the local population, because he used violent methods to repress the separatist revolt that broke out there. He promoted hangings, quartering of bodies, firing squads, deaths by fire, desecration of corpses and rapes. Many of the executed individuals were innocents.  With the change of government that took place in Portugal in 1820, he did fulfill the orders of constitutional government in Lisbon. Victim of an attempt of assassination he returned to Portugal in 1821.

Back in Portugal

Luís do Rego was appointed governor of weapons of Minho by constitutional government, he was in charge of crushing the revolt of the 2nd Count of Amarante, future Marquis de Chaves, who defeated Amarante in February 1823. With the Vilafrancada reimposing the absolutist regime in Portugal, he was removed from office and deported to Figueira da Foz, and retired in the following year. He reentered the army during the regency of Maria II of Portugal, he was promoted to lieutenant general in 1827.

Arrested during the reign of King Miguel, he managed to escape to Spain, returning after the Concession of Evoramonte. Appointed member of the Supreme Council of Military Justice in 1834, he was reappointed governor of weapons of Minho during the Setembrismo, who appointed him senator for Viana do Castelo, during the short duration of the 1838 Constitution.

The Setembrista government of Maria II awarded him the title of Viscount Geraz Lima on April 27, 1835.

Vitamin and mineral management for dialysis patients is a required treatment for people undergoing dialysis because during end-stage kidney disease and dialysis the kidneys are functioning at less than 15% of normal levels.  As a consequence, certain vitamin and mineral restrictions and supplementations are needed.

The kidney’s role in vitamin and mineral metabolism
People on dialysis must follow dietary restrictions, making it difficult for them to get the necessary amounts of certain vitamins and minerals to stay healthy. In addition, vitamins and minerals are lost during the process of dialysis.  Therefore, dialysis patients are at risk for vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Since vitamins are necessary for proper metabolism, protein building, and growth it is important for the health of dialysis patients that they are supplemented with any vitamins or minerals that they may be deficient in.

Nutrients to avoid in dialysis
There are some nutrients that are restricted in kidney failure patients because of the body's inability to excrete excessive amounts of them due to the kidneys not functioning properly. In general, these nutrients include:
Potassium: The kidneys help to regulate potassium levels. When the kidneys are damaged, potassium levels can become elevated. Elevated potassium levels can cause the heart to beat irregularly or even stop.
Phosphorus: The kidneys also help to regulate phosphorus levels in the body. When the kidneys are damaged, they aren't able to remove excessive phosphorus, causing it to build up in blood. Doctors may prescribe a phosphate binder that is taken with meals to help remove excess phosphorus
Sodium: In patients with kidney failure, sodium can cause excessive fluid retention, which can lead to elevated blood pressure, edema, heart failure, and shortness of breath.
Fluid: As kidney damage worsens so does the ability to excrete fluid. In kidney failure patients, excessive fluid intake can result in the same conditions that excessive sodium intake does.

Vitamins and minerals to supplement in dialysis
Many foods that contain phosphorus and potassium (restricted in dialysis patients) also contain folate, niacin, riboflavin, and vitamin B6 (water-soluble vitamins). Therefore, restricting foods that contain phosphorus and potassium can lead to deficiencies in other important vitamins. In general, the following vitamins and minerals are supplemented in dialysis patients:
B vitamins- Water-soluble vitamins that play a role in red blood cell development to prevent anemia and contribute to metabolism to help change the foods you eat into energy.
Vitamin C- Water-soluble vitamin that aids in keeping tissues healthy, wound healing, and infection prevention.
Vitamin D- Normally, the kidney changes vitamin D into its active form, vitamin D3, which helps with calcium absorption. Many dialysis patients have low intakes of calcium due to avoidance of foods containing phosphorus and potassium. Lack of calcium can lead to renal osteodystrophy (bone weakening). On the other hand, too much calcium can cause calcification or calciphylaxis (calcium deposits in places such as the heart. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, meaning that excessive amounts can be damaging so it should be prescribed and monitored by a doctor.
Iron- Kidney damage results in inability of the kidney to produce erythropoietin, which stimulates red blood cell production.

title: Decumano Superiore, Naples

text:
The Decumano or Decumanus Superiore was one of the three main east-west roads (Decumani) in the Ancient Roman city of Naples.

This street is the upper (superiore) and most Northern of the three decumani, or east-west streets, of the grid of the original Greco-Roman city of Neapolis. The central main Decumanus Maggiore is now Via dei Tribunali; while the southernmost or  lower  Decumanus Inferiore is now Spaccanapoli. The three decumani were (and still are) intersected by numerous north-south cross-streets called cardini, together forming the grid of the ancient city.

Buildings
The Decumanus Superiore is now comprised by via della Sapienza and via dell'Anticaglia, and via Santi Apostoli. Among the buildings and palaces on the road are:
Church of Santa Maria della Sapienza
Palazzo Bonifacio a Regina Coeli
Church of Santa Maria Regina Coeli
Palazzo Pisanelli
Church of Santa Maria di Gerusalemme
Ospedale degli Incurabili
Roman Theater di Neapolis
Palazzo Caracciolo di Avellino
Church of San Giuseppe dei Ruffi
Palazzo arcivescovile
Church of Santa Maria Donnaregina Nuova
Church of Santa Maria Ancillarum
Church of Santi Apostoli
Church of Santa Sofia

The other two decumani are closer to the coast: Decumano Maggiore (Via dei Tribunali) and Decumano Inferiore (Spaccanapoli), also exist in some form or other, mostly as narrow lanes.

text:
Ohio Versus Everything (oVe) is a professional wrestling stable in Impact Wrestling consisting of Sami Callihan, Jake Crist, and Madman Fulton and Rich Swann .

The group's name is based on a majority of the members over the faction's lifespan hailing from the state of Ohio - Crist is from New Carlisle (billed from nearby Dayton), Callihan is from Bellefontaine (West Central Ohio), and Fulton is from Toledo. On the independent circuit, Callihan and Crist (alongside Jake's brother Dave) worked together under the name Ohio Is For Killers (OI4K), which is a play on the song Ohio Is for Lovers.

Professional wrestling career

Combat Zone Wrestling (2011–2012; 2014–2018)
On April 9, 2011, Jake Crist was invited to compete in Combat Zone Wrestling's "Best Of The Best X" representing Insanity Pro Wrestling.

Jake's Brother, Dave Crist would also make his CZW debut celebrating with his brother on title win. On September 10, 2011, Jake Crist was originally supposed to defend his newly won title against Chrisjen Hayme. However, Hayme would withdraw from the match and be replaced by Dustin Rayz. Jake Crist would go on to retain against Dustin Rayz. Dave Crist though, would show more concern about his brothers TV title than in Jake Crists well being. After the show Dustin Rayz would confront the Irish Airborne about Dave getting involved in his match against Jake. Rayz would then challenge Dave Crist at CZW "Cerebral". Dave would go one to win that match. Jake Crist successfully defended his Wired TV title against Latin Dragon earlier that night. On April 14, 2012, Dave defeated Jake with a low blow to win the CZW Wired TV Championship. Upon entering CZW, the Irish Airborne formed the Ohio is 4 Killers stable with Nevaeh and Sami Callihan.

Impact Wrestling (2017–2020)
Dave and Jake Crist made their Impact Wrestling debut on August 17, 2017 at Destination X, under the name Ohio Versus Everything (oVe), defeating Jason Cade and Zachary Wentz. On August 20, at Victory Road, they defeated The Latin American Xchange (Ortiz and Santana) to win the GFW World Tag Team Championship. During their reign, the championship was renamed as the Impact World Tag Team Championship. On the October 12 episode of Impact, LAX invoked their rematch clause by challenging oVe to a 5150 Street Fight at Bound for Glory.

At Bound for Glory on November 5, Sami Callihan would debut as well as establish his alliance with The Crist Brothers by helping them defeat LAX, with Jake Crist low blowing Ortiz before Callihan delivered a piledriver through a table for the win. They proceeded to attack LAX after the match, resulting in a double turn, turning heel in the process. On the January 4, 2018 episode of Impact, they lost the title to The Latin American Xchange, ending their reign at 164 days. The Crist Brothers and Callihan then formed a faction, which Madman Fulton would later join in March 2019.

Callihan than attacked them thus leaving the group. On the May 19, 2020 episode of Impact, when Dave Crist was defeated by Crazzy Steve, Madman Fulton attacked Dave Crist and Jake Crist and announced he quit OVE. Dave was released from his contract on June 26, 2020, following sexual harassment and assault allegations surfaced as part of the Speaking Out Movement. Dave Crist has never denied the allegations against him and numerous other female wrestling personalities have come forward with more sexual and physical assault allegations. Since these allegations Dave Crist has been absent from the wrestling business.

Reformation in Impact Wrestling (2023–present)
In 2023, Sami Callihan would begin a feud with The Design after pretending to join and then turning on the group. This would lead to a six man tag team match at Under Siege between Sami and two partners of his choosing. Sami would join forces with Rich Swann with a mystery partner still to be confirmed which would turn out to be the returning Jake Crist with Rich and Sami wearing OVE hats and the three men cutting a promo afterward which ended with the three screaming OVE's "EVERYTHING!" catchphrase. The following week on Impact, Callihan and Crist would be referred to as OVE by themselves as well as the Impact announce team, officially confirming an official OVE reunion. Continuing to feud with The Design, Swann would declare himself unavailable to team with the two at Against All Odds due to competing in the 8-4-1 match, leaving Callihan to allude to an unnamed "monster" he would contact to team with himself and Crist. It would be revealed on the June 9, 2023 by Impact themselves that Fulton was returning and the three would be challenging the Design to an Ohio Street Fight.

title: Typhoon Gilda (1959)

text:
Typhoon Gilda was an intense tropical cyclone that struck regions of the central Philippines in December 1959. An unusually strong late-season storm, Gilda developed on December 13 from a disturbance first identified southeast of Chuuk State three days prior. Steadily intensifying, Gilda reached typhoon strength the next day and proceeded in a general westward track towards the Philippines. On December 18, the typhoon peaked with maximum sustained winds of 280 km/h (175 mph) shortly before the storm made landfall on Samar with a slightly weakened intensity. After passing into the South China Sea, Gilda steadily weakened and made a final landfall in southern Vietnam before dissipating on December 22 over Cambodia. Damage in the Philippines was extensive, and in some locations telecommunications were cut. Impacts in Samar were particularly severe, and in some areas the damage was the worst in 30 years. Homes and crops sustained significant losses. Overall, Gilda caused the deaths of 23 in the Philippines and US$1.5 million in damage.

Meteorological history

On December 10, surface observations from Chuuk State suggested that a tropical cyclone was potentially developing to the island's southeast. As a result, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) requested aircraft reconnaissance on the system, which located a defined but weak circulation center 640 km (400 mi) southeast of Guam associated with the disturbance. Over the next few days, the system slowly intensified, with the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) determining the storm to have reached tropical depression strength at 1800 UTC on December 11 and the JTWC indicating tropical storm intensity by December 13. That day, reconnaissance indicated that the storm had two distinct circulation centers, both weak in intensity. However, these vortices later consolidated, allowing for Gilda to quickly intensify to typhoon status at 0000 UTC on December 14; by this time a small eye had been identified within the cyclone.

After reaching typhoon status, Gilda assumed a west-northwesterly course at a steady pace while gradually intensifying. The development of a trough in the Luzon Strait caused the forward motion of the typhoon to slow on December 16, prompting the JTWC to forecast a recurvature to the north and northeast at the time. However, the trough remained weak, allowing for Gilda to accelerate westward towards the Philippines. At 1800 UTC, the JMA indicated that Gilda had peaked with a minimum barometric pressure of 925 mbar (hPa; 27.32 inHg). Twelve hours later, the storm attained its peak maximum sustained winds of 280 km/h (175 mph), which Gilda maintained for another twelve hours. Shortly after 0000 UTC on December 18, Gilda made landfall on Samar Island in the Philippines with a slightly weakened intensity. By the day's end, the typhoon emerged into the South China Sea, where it began to steadily weaken. At roughly 1200 UTC on December 21, the system was downgraded to tropical storm status, at which time it made a final landfall near Phan Rang–Tháp Chàm in Vietnam. Weakening inland, the tropical cyclone was last noted over western Cambodia on December 22.

Preparations and impact
On December 19, a LORAN station in the western Philippines documented maximum sustained winds of 150 km/h (90 mph) in addition to gusts as high as 260 km/h (160 mph). Across nine provinces in the central Philippines, at least 23 people were killed and another 60,000 were displaced, and Gilda was considered one of the country's worst tropical cyclones in recent memory. The sinking of the motorship Rizal in the waters off of southern Luzon resulted in the deaths of 14 people, though 64 others survived the capsizing. Homes and public work projects sustained heavy damage from the storm. On Samar, damage to crops, homes, and communication lines totaled US$500,000. Some of the damage on the island was considered the worst in 30 years. About 2,500 homes were swept away by storm surge and flood in 27 towns. The coconut industry suffered a major blow from the typhoon, and local authorities indicated that coconut production would take roughly four years to recovery to pre-typhoon levels. The fallen lines disrupted telecommunications during the storm's passage. A group of 100 teachers attending a convention were feared to have been killed in Zumarraga, Samar but were later found. Overall, damage from Gilda in the Philippines amounted to US$1.5 million. Following the storm, Philippine government welfare agencies quickened recovery efforts due to the approach of Christmas. Damage from Gilda in Vietnam, if any, remains unknown.
