title: 2014 Oregon Ballot Measure 88

text:
Oregon Ballot Measure 88 was a ballot measure in the U.S. state of Oregon in the 2014 midterm elections to determine whether or not to refer a "law creating a four-year driver's card, shorter than the usual eight years for a driver's license, for those who meet all other qualifications other than proof of legal presence in the United States". The measure was rejected.

The background for the referendum was a law SB 833 which would have allowed undocumented immigrants to get a driver's card which was passed by the Oregon Legislative Assembly and signed by Governor John Kitzhaber in 2013. An ad hoc group, Protect Oregon Driver Licenses, subsequently collected more than the 58,142 signatures which was required to trigger a citizens' veto referendum and the question was put on the ballot as Measure 88 in the 2014 general election.

The measure was supported by unions, business organizations and groups concerned with immigrant rights. In the election it was rejected by 66% of the voters while 34% supported it.

title: Glenda Kemp

text:
Glenda Kemp (born 1949) is a South African stripper, activist, and teacher.

Early life
Glenda Kemp was born in the Cape Province on 13 May 1949. As a young girl, she lived in the working class suburb of La Rochelle with her mother, stepfather, and younger brother. Her two older siblings were in an orphanage in Potchefstroom; she was later to be sent to the orphanage too. Kemp was adopted by Tannie and Oom Baumbach into their Christian home in the small farming town of Swartruggens. In 1969, she enrolled into the Teachers' Training College in Potchefstroom. It was here she discovered dancing; her skill would be appreciated, as well as detested by many in the future.

 She later transferred to the Goudstad Teachers' Training College in Johannesburg to continue dancing in Go-go dancing clubs.

Stripper
It was during the conservative 1970s, that Kemp began stripping with "Oupa", her pet python. Her scandalous actions and her provocative moves caused the Vice Squad to do their best to stop her, without success. The newspaper Rapport tagged her "Newsmaker of the Year". She was arrested on numerous occasions and charged with public indecency. Faced with barricades of Christian wives on one side and loyal fans and liberals on the other, she never gave up, but continued to provoke the attention of the public.

Dirk De Villiers made Snake Dancer, giving Kemp the opportunity to tell her story in a full-length movie. The film was not well received by the South African public. She planned to leave her snake and dancing behind and follow a teaching career. Her notoriety resulted in many rejections at interviews for teaching positions. She then travelled to London to continue her dancing career there. She worked for Paul Raymond (publisher) in the Raymond Revuebar and at the Windmill Theatre. She also became a relief house mother at Epworth Children's Home.

Later life
In the 1980s, Glenda put her dancing career behind her, moved back to South Africa, started a family with her husband, Karl Koczwara, and completed her teacher training and became a teacher. She returned to the Christian faith of her early teen years, and began a lay ministry to children and to the vulnerable people of society including prostitutes and drug addicts.  She now lives in Durban in retirement.

Koczwara and Kemp got married in 1982, and eventually divorced in 1991. On 12 July 2019, Koczwara was beaten to death with a hammer in his Johannesburg home.

Popular culture
 Snake Dancer, a feature-length movie of her early life was made in 1976 by Dirk de Villiers
 Bladsy 3 (Page 3), a play in Afrikaans  had a run at the Klein Karoo Nasionale Kunstefees in January 2014

title: Saad Nadim

text:
Saad Nadim (Arabic: سعد نديم; February 17, 1920 – March 11, 1980) was an Egyptian documentary film director, considered by many the pioneer of documentary cinema in Egypt and the Arab world.

Early years

Born on February 19, 1920, in Boulaq, an old suburb of Cairo, Saad arrived shortly after the Egyptian Revolution of 1919, which led to his father naming him after the leader of that revolution, Saad Zaghloul, who was an inspirational figure in Egyptian political scene at the time.

Education

Saad joined "Al Farouq" School which was one of the revolting spots from which the demonstrations against colonialism, oppression and foreign privileges took place. Saad was dismissed from the school several times for incitement to demonstrate and eventually finished high school and joined the Faculty of Law in the Cairo university in 1939.

Not really fond of the academic nature of his studies in the faculty of law, young Saad decided to drop out and discontinue his law studies. He was deeply affected by Paul Rotha's book "The Documentary Film" which later had a big impact on his career in the years to come, a book he borrowed from his cousin and future business partner, the film director Salah Abu Seif.

Mesmerized by the world of documentary cinema, Nadim joined the Cinema Institute in 1944 where his passion for Documentary films evolved leading to a long and prosperous career in the documentary film industry.

Work
In the summer of 1944 Saad went to Studio Masr to start his first job as an Editor Assistant in the montage section, which was headed by his cousin Salah Abu Saif. He quickly fell in love with the job as it fits his artistic tendency as well as his personal choice. He learned that arranging shots is one of the most important stages of the film making and that even if the editor has a weak piece of work he must transfer it by cutting, deleting and adjusting the tempo to a coherent and attractive piece of art.

Nadim worked as an assistant for the head of the montage section, Salah Abu Seif in many feature films and really benefited from the experience of the film "Saif Al-Galad" (the Whipper's sword). Cutting and arranging one shot after the other, this movie was growing more and more consistent and the result was that most of the critics praised the montage of the film when it was screened at Cannes Film Festival in 1946.

After less than a year of his work in the montage section, he had the opportunity to work on his first solo editing work in the film “Dunia” directed by Mohammed Karim as recognition of his abilities.
For over a quarter of a century he will be involved in the documentary filming as a director, screenwriter, production manager, tutor and the head manager of the National Center for documentary films. He worked on nearly 70 films in almost every category of documentaries: cultural, scientific, artistic, national, news and advertising.

Culture and Leisure Group

Saad Nadim was not just a literal director, Despite his serious interest in all the elements of documentary films, his desire for change was the force which drove him towards the cultural activities. Saad Nadim, Salah Abu Seif, Mohamed Odeh and Asaad Halim established a group and named it the "Culture & Leisure Group". They held seminars where they discussed serious issues concerning ideas, art and reality.

His public activity increased after he was elected as the Secretary of The Cinema Syndicate. As the Syndicate had an educational role for the first time in 1947 when Saad Nadim organized classical shows for German mime cinema.

His Journey to London

The Egyptian Government has decided to send four young men to England to study various branches including Saad Nadim for directing. For Saad, England was the mother country of the documentary films which consists of various trends, cultural waves and psychological backgrounds. he was in need for this scholarship after the death of his wife -Bothaina al Nahry- the artist who he used to share his aspirations with which he had his first son Anaan.

In England Saad Nadim’s expectations were fulfilled as he found in London a great revival in the film making. In England the universities used to organize uncertified film courses where one of the industry leaders provide students with his theoretical and practical experience and Saad Nadim joined one of these courses at London University.

In the lectures he met “Ahmed Al-Hadary” a young Egyptian engineering student and a big cinema fan. -The dean of the Cinema Institute and the Director of the National Center for Film Culture in the future-. Al-Hadary was a prominent member of the “Egyptian Club" which used to sponsor student affairs in England and provide students with discounted tickets to attend theatre performances and musicals, allowing Saad Nadim, Salah Ezz El-Din with the company of Ahmed Al-Hadary off course to see the world classical theatre. And when he met the father of documentary films, John Grierson and talked to him about his passion for studying documentary film making, he prepared for him a comprehensive course for one and a half year in the motion picture unit attached to "The transportation Authority".

His social connections had grown with the documentary filmmakers in London. And when the English filmmaker Sir Arthur Elton, 10th Baronet who was working in “Shell” came to Egypt in 1953 he visited the company in Cairo and talked to the workers in the cinema section about that Egyptian man whom he met in London who will build a big legacy in the documentary industry and then he asked the public relations Department of the company to benefit from his energy when he return from England. In England Saad met his second wife, Sheila, with whom he had two children, Raamy and Magda.

title: 2014 Oregon Ballot Measure 91

text:
Oregon Ballot Measure 91 was a 2014 ballot measure in the U.S. state of Oregon. Its passage legalized the "recreational use of marijuana, based on regulation and taxation to be determined by the Oregon Liquor Control Commission".

Measure 91 was the third initiative seeking to legalize marijuana for recreational use in Oregon; previous measures were 1986's Measure 5 and 2012's Measure 80 while medical use of marijuana was legalized in Oregon in 1998. Measure 91 passed by approximately 56% to 44%. Most polls leading up to the election showed majority support for legalizing recreational marijuana use among adults.

Implementation
Effective July 1, 2015 (per Section 82(1)) the measure legalizes the possession and use of marijuana for adults 21-years of age or older. Adults can carry up to one ounce of marijuana, keep up to eight ounces at home per household, and grow up to four plants per household.

Retail sales outlets will be licensed by the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, which must begin accepting applications on or before January 4, 2016.  Early sales started October 1, 2015 through existing medical marijuana dispensaries. Sales topped $11 million in the first week that recreational marijuana was legally available for sale in Oregon.

Fiscal impact
Estimates project that the initiative would generate between $17 million to $40 million per year in tax revenue. Potential cost savings for the state and local governments were noted though not explicitly identified in monetary terms due to uncertainty of the measure's full effects on marijuana-related convictions and fines.

Opponents and proponents

Opponents
In September 2014 the Oregon District Attorneys Association and Oregon State Sheriffs Association launched an organized opposition, Vote No on 91.

title: Maria da Penha

text:
Maria da Penha Maia Fernandes is a Brazilian biopharmacist and women human rights defender. She advocates for women rights, particularly against domestic violence. Born in 1945 in Fortaleza, in the Brazilian state of Ceará, Maria da Penha was a victim of domestic violence by her husband. She brought a case against her attacker to be condemned, first in the Federal Court of Brazil and later in the Inter-American Court of Human Rights.

On August 7, 2006, the president of Brazil Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva put the Federal Brazilian Law 11340 into practice. Now known as the Law Maria da Penha, it increased the severity of punishment for domestic violence against women, whenever it occurred in a domestic or family environment. In cities with 60,000 people or more, domestic violence courts and shelters for women were established. Penha says, “The problem is not the law but in its application. Unfortunately, these instruments exist only in big cities."

History

She married Colombian teacher Marco Antonio Heredia Viveros in 1976. She says, "When his Brazilian citizenship was granted, he showed his true colours. I had no idea of how to make him go back to what he was like before." Regarding the abuse she was subjected to, she said, "I didn't know if he would wake up in a good mood or a bad mood. He became violent, hitting the children for no reason. That started to make me feel unsafe in my marriage." In 1983, he attempted to kill her twice. The first time he shot her while she was asleep, but she survived. Viveros told the police that the house had been broken into, and the intruders had shot Maria. Penha returned from the hospital, paralyzed from the waist down. He then told her she was not allowed to have friends or family visit her without his consent. A second attempt on her life was made soon after she returned, when he tried to electrocute her while she was in the shower. In the following year, Maria da Penha began a legal process against Viveros. Seven years later, he was sentenced to 15 years in prison. The defense appealed the sentence and the conviction was overturned. A new trial was held in 1996 and a sentence of 10 years was applied. In 2001, Viveros was sentenced to eight years in prison. Through legal resources, he was jailed for two years. Viveiros was released in 2002.

In 2001, the episode came to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights of the Organization of American States (OAS) and for the first time in history it was considered a crime of domestic violence. The Commission published a report blaming the Brazilian government for negligence and omission regarding domestic violence. On August 7, 2006, the Brazilian government sanctioned the law against domestic violence toward women, entering into force on September 22 of that year.

Today, Penha is coordinator of studies of the Associação de Parentes e Amigos de Vítimas de Violência (APAVV), in the Brazilian state of Ceará. She attended the ceremony of the sanction of Brazilian law that bears her name, together with other ministers and representatives of the Brazilian feminist movement.

title: Belknap, Louisville

text:
Belknap is an urban neighborhood three and a half miles east of downtown Louisville, Kentucky, USA. The neighborhood is bound by Bardstown Road, Douglass Boulevard, Dundee Road and Newburg Road. It is part of a larger area of Louisville called the Highlands. Belknap is often described as the neighborhood in the heart of The Highlands.

History

Early history
The Belknap neighborhood was once farm land, two miles (3 km) south of where Bardstown Road (then Bardstown Turnpike) began at Highland Avenue. There was a stagecoach stop at Douglass Boulevard and Bardstown Road called the "Two-mile House." Abraham Lincoln frequented the stagecoach stop when he was visiting the Speed Family at Farmington.

As the city of Louisville grew, so did the Highlands. The Catholic parish St. Francis of Assisi built its first church on the Michael Zimlich property in 1886. Zimlich sold  in 1901, paving the way for one of the first commercial strips along Bardstown and Dundee roads. In 1909, the Eilers family sold a 22 foot (7 m) easement for the streetcar turnaround and the annexation of the loop occurred, now called Douglass Loop.  Zimlich later sold 26 more acres, and between 1916 and 1918 Boulevard Napoleon was developed.

When  of adjacent property, owned by the Heintzmann family, was sold, it became the first section of University Park, so named because it would lead to the University of Louisville. The street names were changed in 1918 to Ivy League school names, such as Harvard and Yale, to connect to the new subdivision. However, a building bond to facilitate the new campus was rejected by voters in 1920, and the plan never materialized.

The original school on Sils Avenue was named for William Richardson Belknap (William Burke Belknap's son) and opened in 1916, two years after his death. When the school opened, it was a city school, but most of the area was still county. The county children had to go to Maple Grove, present day location of Air Devil's Inn, across from Bowman Field on Taylorsville Road.

1920s
In the 1920s, there was another annexation, and the final annexation occurred in 1958. The sixth class cities were incorporated in the 1920s, making Strathmoor Manor within the boundaries of the Belknap neighborhood.

In 1923, the University of Louisville sold their property, and the development style in the area changed. Some of the land was sold to William F. Randolph, who preferred the curvilinear features that followed the natural contours of the land and other developers followed his lead.

When the Fred Kaelin farm was auctioned from a mule truck in 1923, there were two homes on the property. One still stands on Eastview Avenue (since converted to apartments). The other was razed to build a Walgreens drug store at Bardstown Road and Trevilian Way. The stone part of a house on Lakeside Drive was originally the springhouse for the farm.

Lakeside Swim Club opened in 1924 at the site of a former rock quarry. This private club is known for its steep, 40 foot rock walls and huge quarry "lake" – actually a 3.2 million US gallon (12,000 m³) swimming pool, with a flat concrete bottom and depths ranging from 3 to 20 feet (6 meters).

1940s
The Trough Springs property once belonged to Jonathan Clark, brother of George Rogers and William Clark. It was built before Kentucky became a state. The Doup cemetery, at 2700 Bardstown Road, was incorporated in 1812. In 1949, Bellarmine University was founded in the area.

2010s
In 2010, Kroger petitioned the Louisville Metro Planning Commission to install a five bay gasoline station in the back of the old Hollywood Video store in the 2400 block of Bardstown Road. Kroger forecast the gasoline station would sell 50,000 gallons of gasoline each week at the proposed location behind homes located on Trevillian Way and Lakeside Drive. The Belknap Neighborhood Association opposed the gasoline station based upon existing binding elements prohibiting a gasoline station, expected impact on traffic, environment, property values and quality of life. The Louisville Metro Planning Commission considered the case in an epic five-and-a-half-hour meeting on August 19, 2010. The commission denied Kroger's request by a unanimous vote with one abstention. The denial is the first case in which Kroger was denied the ability to build a gas station in Kentucky.

The Belknap Neighborhood Association voted unanimously in 2011, to support the restoration and landmarking of the iconic Hogan's Fountain Pavilion in Cherokee Park. Belknap was the first Louisville neighborhood to come out in support of the E.J. Schickli masterpiece which is considered by residents the most recognizable landmark in the Louisville Highlands. Belknap made two financial donations in 2011, and 2012, to support the campaign to restore the TeePee and challenged all other Highland Neighborhood Associations to step up and do the same. The structure, otherwise known as the TeePee or Witch's Hat is officially named the McCall Shelter in honor of Alderman C.W. "Ches" McCall who was killed in an auto accident in 1962.

Architecture

The Belknap neighborhood has many styles and ages of houses, the different styles represent more than a century of development. Some include: Bungalow, Arts & Crafts Movement, American Foursquare, Antebellum and Dutch Colonial. A handful of antebellum structures remain, including a former farmhouse on Eastview Avenue (now apartments), and a barn behind a house near the Douglass Loop.

Recognition

Belknap was recognized by Louisville Magazine in October 2010 as one of the most livable and lovable neighborhoods in Louisville and Jefferson County, Kentucky. In 2012, the neighborhood received a national award from Neighborhoods, USA. The recognition by Neighborhoods, USA is the first time a Kentucky neighborhood was recognized by this organization.

A diverse and eclectic neighborhood, Belknap is rated as one of the most walkable neighborhoods in Louisville, based upon walkabilityscore.com. Belknap has one of the highest voter registrations of Democrats in all of Jefferson County and is ironically home to U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and his wife Elaine Chao, former president of the United Way, director of the Peace Corps and United States Secretary of Labor.

Belknap Fall Festival

The Belknap Neighborhood Association stages the Belknap Fall Festival each year on the second Friday and Saturday of October. It has grown to become the largest Fall festival in the Louisville Highlands, in 2011 drawing a two-day crowd of 18,000 people. The festival showcases the work of over 100 artists, musicians, nonprofits, education organizations and community resources. The festival is produced completely by volunteers and proceeds raised go to support the mission of the Belknap Neighborhood Association - including neighborhood improvements.

Demographics

In the 2010 census, the population of Belknap was 4,730, making it the largest neighborhood in the Louisville Highlands. The population is comprised: 95.8% are white, 1.9% are people listed as other, 1.3% are black, and 1% are Hispanic. College graduates are 57.8% of the population, people without a high school diploma are 3.8%. Females outnumber males 55% to 45%. The Belknap neighborhood has the highest median household income of any neighborhood in the Louisville Highlands. It has the lowest percentage of homes in foreclosure, the highest percentage of owner occupied housing and the lowest percentage of households in poverty.

title: Ilfis (river)

text:
The Ilfis (in the local dialect: []) is a Swiss river in the cantons of Bern and Lucerne. It runs through the Entlebuch and upper Emmental regions before joining the Emme.

Name
The earliest evidence of the name Ilfis comes from the year 1337 where it might refer to either the village of Ilfis, now part of Langnau im Emmental, or the farms at Enedilfis, in the municipality of Escholzmatt. It first appears as a river in a document from 1371, though only a copy from 1531 still exists.

The origin of the name is not fully clear. It could be a derivation of *Elvis(i)ā which comes from the Gallic color root word * elvo-, meaning brown or yellow and refer to the yellowish tint of the water. It may also come from or be the origin of the name Hilfern which is often associated with the river.

title: Julio Jorge Nelson

text:
Julio Jorge Nelson (born Isaac Rosofsky; 27 April 1913 – 6 March 1976) was a leading Argentine tango musician. He helped establish the cult of Carlos Gardel and wrote several tangos.

Biography

Born in Buenos Aires into a Jewish family in 1913 as Isaac Rosofsky, he became famous as an adult with the pseudonym Julio Jorge Nelson.

Isaac, the son of a shoemaker, was raised in Villa Crespo. His childhood home was at 225 Triunvirato, later renumbered and renamed as 4943 Corrientes, opposite the theater Florencio Sánchez. Immersed since childhood in the theatrical environment and in the emerging world of radio, at fourteen he decided not to study further, a decision that earned him being thrown out of the house by his parents. He moved to El Centro area of Buenos Aires.

Linking his fate to that of Carlos Gardel began in 1933 when he was presented as a performance artist speaker at the Nacional theater. In 1934, Nelson began broadcasting his Buenos Aires radio program "Escuche esta Noche a Gardel" ("Listen tonight to Gardel"), trying to keep alive the public's interest in Gardel, who was killed on June 24, 1935 in an accidental airplane crash in Medellín.

Soon after, on Radio Callao, opened in January of that year, the announcer Carlos Enrique Cecchetti began broadcasting a program fully devoted to Gardel. Nelson continued that program beginning in 1936, inaugurating the show "El Bronce que Sonríe" ("The smiling bronze"). This program moved in 1944 to Radio Mitre. Each daily program started with this saying: "Through time and distance his name endures as the truest symbol of our arts. Carlos Gardel, the smiling bronze." Gardel's remains were returned from Colombia on 5 February 1936. Nelson broadcast a program from Gardel's gravesite in Chacarita Cemetery.

Another day radio program which gave Nelson great popularity was "El Exito de Cada Orquesta" (The Success of Every Orchestra), which was broadcast from Radio Callao (the station that also directed "La Pandilla Corazón") and then transferred to Radio Mitre and finally Radio Rivadavia. Knowing the value of ritual formulae, Nelson concluded each program with the same farewell: "See you tomorrow, if God permits." Both programs remained stubbornly on the air long after radio stations had started to thin out their tango programming.

In 1936, he married Margarita Ibarrola Isaurralde when she was 17, but they separated in 1945, leaving his 7-year-old son, Julio Carlos (nicknamed "Cachito") with the boy's paternal grandparents. Margarita migrated to Brazil, where she married a German and had two children with him but again separated. Eventually all contact was lost.

Julio then married Susana Carballo in 1951; she was a female tango singer known as Susana Ocampo. That marriage lasted only a year and half. They separated then, but no formal divorce. After Nelson's death, Susana became his heir.

One day, at age 14, Nelson's son escaped from the grandparents' house, leaving a letter in which he explained to them that he was going south. The truth was that he was going to Guayaquil, Ecuador with two friends. In Bolivia, they were arrested, but managed to continue traveling on a group passport. Nelson's son found employment at Club Barcelona. At that time, Tucho Méndez, a friend of Julio Jorge and aware of the disappearance of Julio's child, recognized his son with great surprise. He immediately phoned Buenos Aires, and shortly after, via a link to a radio Guayaquil, Julio, asked the son to come back home. His son returned.

Julio died on 6 March 1976, aged 62, four days after suffering a heart attack.

Julio Jorge Nelson wrote several tangos that enjoyed success. By far, the most successful was "Margarita Gauthier" with music by the talented Joaquín Mora. This tango was recorded by Alberto Gómez in 1935, but truly became famous due to the  version of Miguel Caló with Raul Beron, in 1942, which was followed by Aníbal Troilo with Fiorentino, in 1943.

Nelson was also the author of the tangos "Carriego”, “Óyeme, mamá”, “Qué será de ti”, “No debemos retornar”, “Nocturno de tango”, “La casa vacía”, “Escuchando tu voz”, “Al volverte a ver”, “Junto al piano”, “Cuento azul”, and “Derrotao”, among others.

Nelson also had two forays into film, "Historia de un Ídolo" and "Soy del Tiempo de Gardel", about a time which he more than anyone else celebrated.

title: Charles E. Tilton Mansion

text:
The Charles E. Tilton Mansion, now the Lucian Hunt Library, stands on the campus of the Tilton School in Tilton, New Hampshire, United States.  Built in the 1860s and enlarged several times in the 19th century, it is one of the state's most architecturally eclectic houses.  It was built by banker and philanthropist Charles E. Tilton, for whose family the town is named.  The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. It was acquired by the Tilton School in 1962 and adapted for use as its library, which is named for Lucius Hunt, a teacher of Classics at the school.

Description and history
The former Tilton mansion is located on the eastern side of the Tilton School campus, at the southeastern corner of a campus loop road on the east side of School Street.  It is a three-story wood-frame building with a mansard roof, built in the early 1860s. Two-story wings extend to the sides of the main block, and a three-story hip-roof service wing extends to the rear. A two-story porch extends around three sides of the main block. The interior is a stylistically eclectic mix, embracing not just the Second Empire which characterizes the exterior, but also Renaissance and Classical Revival elements.

Charles Tilton, its builder, was a major force in banking and the Pacific merchant trade, operating banks and railroads in the American Pacific Northwest (now Washington and Oregon), as well as investing in real estate there. Tilton was born in what is now Tilton (then part of Sanbornton), and he was a generous benefactor to the town of Tilton, which was named in honor of his grandfather and in recognition of his public gifts. The core of the house was built about 1861, and was enlarged after Tilton ended his western business interests in 1879. The house was acquired by the Tilton School in the 1960s, and adapted for use as its library.

title: Sarah Malcolm

text:
Sarah Malcolm ( – early March 1733) was a British murderer who was sketched by William Hogarth as she awaited execution for a multiple murder.

Life
Malcolm came from an Anglo–Irish family in County Durham, where she was born around 1710. She was brought up in Dublin. She came to London and found work in domestic service, working as a laundress for residents above the Inns of the Court. She came to know an old lady named Lydia Duncomb (aged about 80). Duncomb lived with two maids: Elizabeth Harrison (aged about 60), who was infirm; and Ann Price (aged about 17). In February 1733 the three women were found murdered and their apartment burgled, and Malcolm was brought in for questioning.

Malcolm confessed to being involved in the robbery (itself a capital crime), but said that she was part of a group of four. If she could have implicated the other three for the murders then she might still have escaped a death sentence, but the investigators were not convinced. The key evidence was that her clothing had blood stains (Malcolm claimed this was simply her own menstrual blood rather than the blood of the victims) and that 45 guineas were found hidden in her hair. During the trial she defended herself, and Jane Magreth considers that her defence was "convincing" and "at least worthy of consideration". Arthur Griffiths, military historian, author and prison administrator states that she was an "unsexed desparado", her murders of "particular atrocity even in those bloodthirsty times". Malcolm was sentenced to be hanged after the jury took 15 minutes to decide her guilt. Hanged at Tyburn in London in early March 1733, still denying the killing, she is remembered because William Hogarth visited her in Newgate Prison a few days before she was executed and sketched her and later arranged for both an engraving and later an oil painting to be made of her. Hogarth was not alone in exploiting her notoriety as others went to see if they could gain a confession that they could publish.

title: Hescheleria

text:
Hescheleria is an extinct genus of thalattosaurian marine reptile from the Middle Triassic (247.2 to 235 Ma) of Monte San Giorgio in Switzerland. It is represented by a single type species, H. ruebeli, which was named in 1936.

Description

Like other thalattosaurs, Hescheleria has a slender lizard-like body with a long paddle-shaped tail. It is estimated to have grown to approximately 1 meter in length.

The skull possesses an unusually-shaped snout, with sharply downturned premaxillae. This forms a toothy hook at almost a right angle to the rest of the jaw, with a large diastema. The mandible is considerably robust and is dotted with small sharp teeth, along with a pair of pointed conical projections towards the tip, the function of which is unknown.
The strange skull suggests a highly specialized lifestyle. It has been speculated that the projections on the mandible were used to crush hard-shelled prey such as molluscs. Other paleontologists disagree with this hypothesis, arguing that the projections do not occlude against any other potential crushing surface in the jaws, instead making contact with the rostral diastema.

After the end of the Second Boer War, the government of the newly created British Colony of Transvaal established a Supreme Court of Transvaal in April 1902. The governor, Lord Milner, appointed Wessels as one of three puisne judges, with Sir James Rose Innes as Chief Justice. Solomon was transferred to this Supreme Court too, and he was appointed to the first Appeal Court for the new Union of South Africa when it was formed in 1910.

He was appointed Chief Justice of South Africa in 1927. At the end of his career he also sat on the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council.

He is buried in the Solomon family plot in Brookwood Cemetery.

"Would You Rather Be a Colonel with an Eagle on Your Shoulder or a Private with a Chicken on Your Knee?" was a World War I war song by songwriter and performer Arthur Fields. Fields' version was recorded for Columbia Records in 1918.

Composition
The song was composed by Sidney D. Mitchell with words by Archie Gottler. It was published by Leo Feist in 1918.

The song uses the colloquial in comparing a "bird" colonel's life to that of a private. It also expresses a common man theme that was popular with Tin Pan Alley songwriters during World War I.

Performances
The song was successfully sung by Eddie Cantor in Ziegfeld's Follies in 1918. It was well suited for the follies, because the singer expresses patriotism and appreciation of beautiful women with his identification with the private in the song who has more time to appreciate women and receives more attention from them than the colonel does.

Arthur Fields' 1919 version, which was released under the pseudonym Eugene Buckley, was one of the top 100 songs of 1919.

Gordon Jenkins recorded a version of the song for Capitol Records in 1943.

Six Hits and a Miss recorded a version of the song for Capitol Records in 1943.

Bertha Wolpa recorded a version for Smithsonian Folkways.

In popular culture
The song was mentioned in detail in the address of E. M. Allen, who was president of the National Association of Insurance Agents, at the Annual Meeting of the Fire Underwriters' Association of the Northwest that was held in Chicago in 1918.

The song is mentioned in Preston Jones' The Oldest Living Graduate: A Play in Two Acts.

title: Seibu Holdings

text:
is a Japanese holding company that primarily owns Seibu Railway, Prince Hotels, and Seibu Bus and its subsidiaries, which are collectively known as the . In total, fifty-three companies across the world are affiliated with the Seibu Group. The company was formed in 2006 to restructure the group after it had come to light in 2004 that the predecessor to Seibu Holdings, Kokudo, had falsified the ownership of its shares in Seibu Railway for over forty years.

As of January 2015, Seibu Holdings' share prices exceed ¥2900 and the company has the highest market capitalization of any Japanese company which owns a private rail network.

History

In 2004, the Seibu Group collapsed due to the revelation that the head of Kokudo (the predecessor of Seibu Holdings), Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, had falsified financial statements for over forty years. The scandal, which involved falsifying the ownership of Kokudo's share holdings in Seibu Railway, was compounded by the increased competition faced by Prince Hotels in the hotel and leisure market as well as an additional pay-off scandal involving a corporate racketeer. Seibu Railway was consequently delisted from the Tokyo Stock Exchange in December 2004 after shares fell to ¥400 from a peak of ¥8000. As a response to this, Seibu Holdings was founded on February 3, 2006, with the aim of restructuring the group following an investment of ¥100 billion from the American private equity firm Cerberus Capital Management.  Tsutsumi, having pleaded guilty to the fraud charges in 2005, retained a 5% stake in Seibu Holdings having previously owned a 36% stake in Kokudo.

The company has been directed by Takashi Gotō since its creation in 2006. He is also a company board member for Prince Hotels (since 2006) and Seibu Railway (since 2010).

Despite paying out ¥5.2 billion in compensation as a result of lawsuits concerning the scandals of 2004, the company made a net profit of ¥16.3 billion in fiscal 2013, an increase of 5% when compared to the previous year. In April 2014, Seibu Holdings was listed on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange where shares had originally been evaluated at ¥2300. After Cerberus abandoned plans to sell a 15.5% stake of the business, however, shares began at the lower offering price of ¥1600 when they were relisted on April 23, 2014. The company ended the day at ¥1770 per share. In total, 27.8 million shares (about 8% of Seibu Holding's outstanding stock) were relisted. It was later revealed that Cerberus had an agreement with their managing underwriter prohibiting them from selling their share in Seibu Holdings until October 2014. The company exceeded its original ¥2300 per share evaluation in June 2014, with its share prices rising to ¥2945 on January 21, 2015.

On January 19, 2015, Seibu Holdings' market capitalization of ¥975 billion overtook that of the Tokyu Corporation. Consequently, Seibu Holdings attained the highest market capitalization of any Japanese company which owns a private rail network.

Businesses

Seibu Holdings is a holding company which has ownership over fifty-three companies. The companies that are affiliated with Seibu Holdings are collectively known as the Seibu Group. As of March 2014, it directly employs 371 people.

Seibu Holdings entirely owns Seibu Railway, a major passenger railway company founded in 1912. The company, which employs over 3,700, owns 176.6 kilometers of track and ninety-two stations in western Tokyo and Saitama. Statistics released by the company for fiscal 2013 state that its railway network serves 1.7 million people daily resulting in an annual revenue of ¥140.7 billion.

The hotel chain Prince Hotels is also owned in its entirety by Seibu Holdings. Formed in 1956, the chain caters largely for the Japanese tourism market with fifty hotels within the country but also has a limited number of overseas resorts in Hawaii, Taiwan and Malaysia. Statistics released by the company state that, at the end of the 2013 fiscal year, there were 6,737 employees and that its capital stock was ¥3.6 billion. Seibu Holdings has announced plans for Prince Hotels offices to be established in Taiwan by October 2014 in order to cater for Taiwanese tourists, with whom the chain has proved most popular in terms of international tourist numbers.

A diverse range of enterprises including: pet care, transportation and real estate are affiliated with Seibu Holdings. Some of Seibu Holdings' subsidiaries have subsidiaries themselves. For example: Seibu Hire, Seibu Kankō Bus, Seibu Sōgōkikaku and Seibu Kōgen Bus are all subsidiaries of Seibu Bus. The table below details the companies affiliated with Seibu Holdings listed in Japanese hiragana order.

title: Halle–Cottbus railway

text:
The Halle–Cottbus railway is a 176 km long double-track electrified main line in the German states of Saxony-Anhalt, Saxony and Brandenburg. It was opened in 1871 and 1872. It formed the central section of the network of the Halle-Sorau-Guben Railway Company. Today it is part of a connection between the Central Germany and Poland.

Before German reunification, the line was also served by express trains, but it is now mainly used by regional and international freight traffic.

History

On 1 December 1871, the Halle-Sorau-Guben Railway Company (Halle-Sorau-Gubener Eisenbahn, HSGE) opened the Cottbus–Falkenberg/Elster section after its extension towards Guben was opened earlier the same year. Six months later, on 1 May 1872, trains ran via Falkenberg to Eilenburg and, two more months later, on 30 June 1872, operations on the line were extended as far as Halle. It did not connect with many of the former Prussian private railways that it crossed, as there were no at-grade connections with the existing lines, but they were mainly crossed on grade-separated crossings. There are two two-level stations in Doberlug-Kirchhain (at the intersection with the Berlin–Dresden railway) and at Falkenberg/Elster (intersection with the line of the former Berlin-Anhalt Railway Company). In Delitzsch, it built its own station separately from the existing station. On 1 November 1874, the connecting line from Eilenburg to Leipzig was opened.

The line was doubled by 1911.  By the end of the Second World War, the line was an important connection from Central Germany to Silesia. A number of through coaches ran to and from western Germany. Leipzig was also served with through coaches via Eilenburg.

Between 1945 and 1990

The role of the route changed after 1945. Due to the new East German border along the Oder–Neisse line, the importance of traffic heading east decreased, but gradually new passenger and freight traffic flows resulted from the growing industrial centres in the region, such as Cottbus, Guben and Eisenhüttenstadt.

The second track, which had been removed after 1945 as war reparations, was rebuilt by 1970. The railway was electrified between 1984 and 1989 in several sections.

A number of long-distance trains ran on the Cottbus–Eilenburg section, continuing towards Leipzig, until 1990. For example, services between Frankfurt (Oder) and Frankfurt (Main) and between Cottbus and Erfurt. Similarly, there was an international express service from Leipzig to Kraków. Typical stops for long-distance services were Calau, Finsterwalde, Doberlug-Kirchhain, Falkenberg (Elster), Torgau and Eilenburg. The Eilenburg–Halle section, however, primarily served regional passenger and freight traffic, at least since 1945.

After 1990

In 1992, express services on the line began to be operated at regular intervals, with through trains (Durchgangszug) operating every two hours. An InterRegio service was established in 1995 with trains running from Cottbus to Leipzig, continuing via Magdeburg and Schwerin to Lübeck. In 1999 every second train, and a year later all trains, were replaced by Regional-Express services.

Passengers

Regional-Express trains run every two hours between Cottbus and Eilenburg, continuing to Leipzig. Regionalbahn trains also run between Cottbus and Falkenberg and line S4 of the Mitteldeutschland S-Bahn (Geithain–Leipzig–Hoyerswerda) also run between Falkenberg and Eilenburg, resulting in each case in services running approximately once an hour. Between Halle and Eilenburg Regionalbahn trains run every one or two hours. Most services in this section have been run since December 2008 by Mitteldeutsche Regiobahn, a brand of Veolia Verkehr Regio Ost.

Due to the cuts to public transport funding adopted by the Saxon government in 2010, amounting to €24 million for 2011 and €35 million in 2012, at least a partial reduction in services between Halle and Eilenburg was considered by Zweckverband für den Nahverkehrsraum Leipzig (the Leipzig local transport association, ZVNL), but this was averted. Thus, the services on the route were maintained to Eilenburg. Nevertheless, the continuation of passenger services on this section is not certain. With the commissioning of the City Tunnel in Leipzig the ZVNL plans to discontinue all passenger transport services between Eilenburg and Halle and the future of the Eilenburg–Delitzsch section is to be examined. Thus the branch line to Leipzig would play an important role and would be used as the regular route. In contrast, Nahverkehrsservice Sachsen-Anhalt (Saxony-Anhalt local transport service) is planning to upgrade the track infrastructure from the current operating speed of up to 100 km/h to at least 120 km/h by 2015 and an increase of service frequency so that they run every 60 minutes.

Rollingstock

Different rollingstock are used on line. The Deutsche Bahn sets for the Halle–Eilenburg Regionalbahn service are composed of locomotives of class 143 hauling one or two double-decker carriages plus a control car and since December 2013 Bombardier Talent 2 multiple units are used for line S4 (Leipzig–Hoyerswerda) of the Mitteldeutschland S-Bahn, which uses the section of the line from Eilenburg to Falkenberg/Elster.

Mitteldeutsche Regiobahn operates the Halle–Eilenburg route with Stadler Regio-Shuttle RS1 or Siemens Desiro Classic diesel railcars, possibly also in double traction.

The Regional-Express line between Leipzig and Cottbus (part of the line from Eilenburg) was operated for two years with class 182 locomotives and four former InterRegio carriages (converted Deutsche Reichsbahn express carriages) plus a control car. Bombardier Talent 2 multiple units were intended to be substituted in December 2009. Due to delays in the approval process, the start date was postponed several times. The first trains of this type have operated since the beginning of 2013.

Freight

The track is used by freight trains, running from Falkenberg/Elster for instance or formed in Eilenburg and running towards the freight centre in Halle (Saale). Moreover, it has become increasingly important for freight to and from Eastern Europe, branching in Falkenberg via Hoyerswerda to Węgliniec to Poland (Węgliniec–Roßlau railway). After the completion of the construction work between Horka and Hoyerswerda, traffic on the line, according to Deutsche Bahn publicity, will increase from the current 40 freight trains to 160 freight trains daily on the Falkenberg–Eilenburg–Halle/Leipzig section, thus  making the line a major international freight route.

The BLG Logistics Group announced in May 2011 that it would invest €10 million in Falkenberg on 20 of the 40 tracks to form a marshalling yard, including a workshop, for freight trains for transporting cars to and from eastern Europe. The trains will run between Eastern Europe and the ports of Bremerhaven and Cuxhaven among others.

Kralj Dmitar Zvonimir (pennant number RTOP-12) is a  in service with the Croatian Navy. Like its sister ship , Kralj Dmitar Zvonimir features a mixture of Western and Eastern equipment including a Swedish forward gun and anti-ship missiles as well as Russian-built propulsion and close-in weapon system (CIWS).

Although the ship was laid down in 1993, it was not until 2001 it was launched and commissioned, still lacking complete armament. Even though they belong to the same class, Kralj Dimtar Zvonimir features slight changes compared to Kralj Petar Krešimir IV. These include an altered bridge, longer hull and digitalised control of the propulsion.

title: Jacob de Villiers

text:
Jacob Abraham Jeremy de Villiers  (14 December 1868 – 16 September 1932) was a judge of the Appellate Division from 1920 to 1932 and Chief Justice of South Africa from 1929 to 1932.

Early life and education
De Villiers was born in Fauresmith, the son of Jacobus Johannes Luttig de Villiers, deputy sheriff at Fauresmith and his second wife, Johanna Lodewica Oberholzer. The family later moved to Winburg, where his father became the sheriff. De Villiers matriculated at Grey College in Bloemfontein, passing the Matriculation Examination in 1886 and winning two bursaries. He continued his studies at the Victoria College in Stellenbosch. De Villiers gained first place in the B.A. examination in 1889 and was awarded a William Porter Bursary.

In 1890, he went to the Netherlands to study law at the University of Amsterdam, but in July that year decided to compete for a senior bursary in law at the University of London. He completed the examination in August 1891, in which he came first and won the Senior Studentship.

Career
De Villiers was admitted to the Middle Temple in January 1893, thereby qualifying for admission to the Johannesburg Bar, where he began to practise in 1894. After the Jameson Raid, De Villiers acted as the assistant to John Wessels, in defending the Reformers in the high treason trial, following the Raid. Shortly after the trial, the Orange Free State President, M. T. Steyn appointed him Attorney General of the Orange Free State, a post he occupied for a short while. He resigned the post in 1898 and returned to the Johannesburg Bar.

When the Second Boer War broke out in October 1899, De Villiers joined the Free State forces and served as legal adviser to general Marthinus Prinsloo. During the Battle of Bothaville, on 6 November 1900, he was seriously wounded in the front lines when a bullet passed through both of his legs. He was captured by the British and deported to a POW camp in Bermuda, where he spent eighteen months. After the war he toured through England, France and Germany before returning to Johannesburg and resuming his practice in 1903.

After Britain granted self-rule to the two former Boer colonies, the Transvaal Colony held an election in February 1907. De Villiers became member of the Legislative Assembly for Maraisburg and was included in the first elected Cabinet of the Transvaal Colony as Attorney General (effectively the Minister of Justice) and Minister of Mines.

When the Union of South Africa was formed in 1910, de Villiers was not included in the first Union cabinet but was appointed the first Judge-President of the Transvaal Provincial Division and also additional Judge of Appellate Division. He became a permanent Judge of Appeal in 1920 and after the death of Sir William Solomon in 1929, he was appointed Chief Justice of the Union of South Africa and in 1931 he was made a member of the Privy Council.

Honours
De Villiers was awarded an honorary doctorate in law by the University of Stellenbosch in June 1931 and at the beginning of 1932 he was appointed chancellor of the university, but died before he could be inaugurated.

Personal life
De Villiers married the widow, Maria Jacoba Carolina Meintjies in November 1907 and they had three children. De Villiers left for Germany in April 1932 for medical treatment but died five months later in London, England.
