title: Maunsell Crosby

text:
Maunsell Schieffelin Crosby (February 14, 1887 - 1931) was an ornithologist, writer, and farmer. Crosby was the son of Ernest Howard Crosby, a noted author and reformer who served in the seat in the New York State Legislature formerly held by Theodore Roosevelt. Crosby was also a nephew of Eugene Schieffelin, the bird enthusiast who introduced the starling to the U.S. The 1933 book The Birds of Dutchess County by Ludlow Griscom based much of its information on records compiled by Crosby.

Early life and education

Crosby was born to Ernest Howard Crosby and Fanny Kendall Schieffelin Crosby in New York City on February 14, 1887. He graduated from Morristown School (now Morristown-Beard School) in Morristown, New Jersey in 1904. During his three years of study at Morristown School (1901-1904), Crosby grew his interest in ornithology. In 1915, he published an article titled "Some Notes from Morristown, N. J." in The Oriole, a magazine published by the Somerset Hills Bird Club in Somerset Hills, New Jersey. The article describes his experiences observing birds as a youth.

In 1908, Crosby completed his bachelor's degree at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1908. While studying at the school, he ran for the Harvard Crimson's cross country team. Following his graduation from the school, Crosby went on a three-month overseas trip to Western Europe. He traveled through the countries of England, France, the Netherlands, Germany, and Austria-Hungary (now the countries of Austria and Hungary).

Crosby and noted poet John Hall Wheelock were classmates at both Morristown School and Harvard; Wheelock and Crosby roomed together during their sophomore year at Harvard. Wheelock later served as the best man at Crosby's wedding.

Birding expeditions

Crosby made several expeditions to Central America and South America for the Museum of Natural History in New York City. In 1921, he traveled on an expedition to Panama with Ludlow Griscom that brought back about 500 species of birds. Many of these species had been previously unknown to scientists in the United States.

Dutchess County farm

Returning from his overseas trip to Europe, Crosby took over management of Grasmere, the family farm. His mother Fanny had operated Grasmere for 15 years after purchasing it from Margaret Livingston Lee. On the purchase of Grasmere estate Fanny was supported by her mother Sarah Minerva Kendall Schieffelin, widow of Henry Maunsell Schieffelin, in 1894.

Crosby raised livestock, including Jersey cattle,  Brown Swiss cattle, Holstein Friesian cattle, hogs, chickens, turkeys, and ducks. He also grew apples, pears, potatoes, beans, and other crops.

In 1987, Grasmere received a placement on the National Register of Historic Places. The property, which dates from the 18th Century, once served as the birthplace of William Alexander Duer, president of Columbia College (now Columbia University).

Military and government service

Crosby worked at the Division of Forests at the New York State Conservation Commission (now the Department of Environmental Conservation) from 1912 to 1913. In 1912, he joined the 10th New York Infantry Division as a second lieutenant. Crosby received promotions to first lieutenant in 1914 and captain in the Quartermaster Corps on 1917. Later that year, he entered into federal military service with an assignment to the New York State Arsenal. Crosby transferred to Camp Mills in August 1917.

While serving in the military, Crosby received an appointment to serve as an aide to Governor Charles S. Whitman. He served in that role from 1915 to 1917.

Historical legacy

Crosby developed a close friendship with Franklin Roosevelt during their days in Hyde Park, New York; They were neighbors who shared a common interest in ornithology. The Hudson River Valley and Dutchess County Manuscript Collection at the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum houses many of Crosby's writings. The collection includes his birdwatching records, his scratch list of birds observed, and his six volume birding diary. The ornithology collection at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. contains a black and white photograph of Crosby.

Crosby also developed a friendship with noted artist John Butler Yeats. Writer and historian Van Wyck Brooks, a mutual friend, introduced them. Yeats sketched Crosby and his wife and spent time with them in Rhinebeck.

Crosby's granddaughter, Susan Schieffelin McCabe Gillotti, wrote an extensive history on Crosby, their family, and their relationships with Wheelock and the Roosevelts.

Family

Crosby married Elizabeth Coolidge on June 11, 1908, during his senior year at Harvard. Crosby and Elizabeth Coolidge had two children together: Maunsell Howard Crosby and Helen Elizabeth Crosby. In 1916, Crosby and Elizabeth Coolidge divorced.

title: Dance the Bop!

text:
Dance the Bop! is a 1957 album by Ray Conniff. All the tracks were written by Conniff with a "solid rock and roll beat" to appeal to the teenage audience of the time. The album was produced in February, 1957. Released by Columbia Records, the album was an attempt by the company to cash in on the teen dance craze.

Conniff himself never liked this album and felt under pressure by producer and a&r chief Mitch Miller to record it. He once stated in an interview with German television "We should have burnt the tapes". Miller thought that the "new dance" Bop (which has nothing in common with the jazz style of the same name) was on the way to the top at that time while Conniff was afraid of killing his new sound concept (instrumentally singing voices doubling instruments) which he started off with in the late 1956 by releasing his album 'S Wonderful. After the Bop album he returned to this sound which turned out to be a worldwide success in the late 1950s and early 1960s.

title: The City Record

text:
The City Record is the official journal of New York City. It is published each weekday (except legal holidays) and contains legal notices produced by city agencies, including notices of proposed and adopted rules, procurement solicitations and awards, upcoming public hearings and meetings, public auctions and property dispositions, and selected court decisions. Despite the publication's importance, long history, and influence—many city projects are required to be announced in the paper—the existence of the Record is not well known.

The codified local laws of NYC are contained in the New York City Administrative Code, and the regulations promulgated by city agencies are compiled in the Rules of the City of New York. Historical issues of The City Record are being digitized by the City Record Project at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering;  the database contains searchable PDFs of issues from the founding of the Record in 1873 through 1947, resulting in a historical source that records every payment and contract of the city, election returns, periodic reports of city agencies, and much more.

The paper was founded in the wake of multiple scandals involving the city government and Tammany Hall; its publication is required by city law (New York City Charter §1066) and ensures that city business meets state law transparency requirements (Consolidated Laws GMU §103 (2)). Eli Blachman has been the paper's editor since 1995. The City Record has been published online (known as CROL) since 2004.

title: Red Baldwin

text:
Earl Philips "Red" Baldwin (September 1, 1894 – January 1, 1956) was a professional baseball catcher who spent 15 seasons in the minor leagues. Baldwin's entire career playing for team on the West Coast of the United States, mostly in the Pacific Coast League (PCL). His career began in the Northwestern League in 1916. Baldwin broke into the PCL in 1917 after being traded to the Portland Beavers. His baseball career took a hiatus during the 1918 season during his service in the 91st Division of the United States Army during World War I. He returned to baseball in 1919 and played in the PCL for the next 11 seasons. During that time he played for the San Francisco Seals (1919, 1931), the Seattle Indians (1920, 1924–26), the Los Angeles Angels (1921–23) and the Mission Bells/Reds (1927–30).

Professional career

Northwestern League and Portland Beavers (1916–17)
Under the recommendation of former player Jim Byrnes the Vancouver Beavers of the Northwestern League (NWL) invited Baldwin to try out for the club but was not offered a contract. Instead Baldwin signed with the Tacoma Tigers. He finished the season with a .242 batting average with 39 hits in 161 at bats.

Before start of the 1917 season, Baldwin negotiated his way out of his contract with Tacoma. After he became a free agent, the Portland Beavers of the Pacific Coast League offered him a contract. However, Baldwin signed with the NWL Spokane Indians. In early June Baldwin was traded to the Portland Beavers in exchange for Bill Stumpf and Gus Helfrich. Baldwin's batting average with Spokane was .302 with two home runs. Baldwin arrived in Portland on June 10. Roscoe Fawcett, the sports editor of The Oregonian, wrote on June 24 that, "'Red' Baldwin behind the bat doesn't seem to be able to hit a lick. He is a nifty receiver, but helpless on offense". With Portland that season, Baldwin batted .219 with five doubles and two triples.

Army service and semi-pro baseball (1917–18)
After the 1917 season Baldwin signed with a winter league club based out of San Francisco, California named "Maxwell". He also played for a semi-professional team named the Oakland Native Sons. In October 1917, Baldwin was drafted to serve in World War I as a member of the United States Army. Baldwin did not claim exemptions to his draft. In November, Baldwin was informed to report to Camp Lewis near Tacoma, Washington. He wrote The Oregonian in December and said he was not sure where he would be deployed, but thought it would likely be France or Italy. As a member of the 91st Division, Baldwin served in France during the Battle of Saint-Mihiel and the Meuse-Argonne Offensive from 1917 to 1918.

Following the 1918 season, the New York Yankees selected Baldwin in the rule 5 draft, but he was unable to report to the team due to his service in World War I. The Portland Beavers's owner Judge McCredie claimed the Yankees failed to pay the arranged draft price for Baldwin, who was still under contract with the Beavers while serving in the U.S. Army. The case was reviewed by the National Commission and eventually the Yankees were allowed to sign Baldwin.

Pacific Coast League journeyman (1919–31)
After returning home from service in World War I, Baldwin reported to the New York Yankees spring training camp at the start of the 1919 season. However, he was cut from the roster before the start of the regular season and signed with the San Francisco Seals of the PCL. He played 82 games for the Seals and finished with a .217 batting average with 11 doubles, one triple and two home runs.

Before the 1920 season Baldwin was negotiating to re-sign with the San Francisco Seals, but they did not reach an agreement. The Seattle Indians offered Baldwin $500 a month, which he accepted. On the season, Baldwin appeared in 108 games and batted .240 with 12 doubles and two triples. Baldwin requested another $500 a month contract from the Seattle Indians, which they declined instead offering him $400 a month. He eventually signed with Seattle for an undisclosed amount.

Baldwin was traded to the Los Angeles Angels before the start of the 1921 season in exchange for Curly Brown. Baldwin was the team's first string catcher that season. He played 108 games that season and batted .266 with 18 doubles, six triples and one home run. In his second season with the Angels, Baldwin appeared in 91 games and batted in .293 with 90 hits, 18 doubles and two home runs. Baldwin played his final season with Los Angeles in 1923. He appeared in 101 games with 32 doubles and two home runs.

Following the 1923 season Los Angeles sold Baldwin to the Seattle Indians. During the 1924 season, he batted .282 with 31 doubles, 10 triples and 10 home runs. His double and home run totals were a career high. In 1925 Baldwin batted .269 with 16 doubles, one triple and six home runs. Baldwin's batting statistics for 1926 are not available.

The Seattle Indians sold Baldwin to the Mission Bells in exchange for $3,000. In his first season for Mission, Baldwin did not make a plate appearance. He played in 17 games on defense. In 1928 he appeared in 118 games and finished with a .277 with 18 double, one triple and three home runs. His final season with Mission was in 1930. That year he batted .247 with 10 double, one triple and three home runs.

Baldwin signed with the San Francisco Seals in 1931. His contract stipulated that Baldwin would be paid for the entire season, regardless how much he played. He played 65 games with eight doubles and two triples in what would be his final season in professional baseball.

Relatives
Baldwin's brother-in-law was William Lawrence Plummer, who played with Baldwin from 1924 to 1925 on the Seattle Indians. His nephew, Bill Plummer, was a major league catcher from 1968 to 1978, and pro baseball manager and coach from 1980 to 2017 with the Seattle Mariners, Colorado Rockies, Detroit Tigers, Cincinnati Reds, and Arizona Diamondbacks organizations as well as the independent Chico Heat and Yuma Bullfrogs.

title: Lenora Mandella

text:
Lenora Mandella (4 May 1931 - 12 August 2005) played shortstop and pitcher in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League between 1949 and 1951. She both batted and threw right-handed.  Her nickname was Smokey.  She measured 5 feet 7 inches and weighed 145 pounds.

Born in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, Lenora became a pioneer in women's baseball, and was featured in the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY on November 6, 1988.  As well, she was a local duckpin bowler. She worked for the Glasshouse in Glassport, Operating Engineers Local 66 Insurance Fund in Monroeville and Copperweld until she retired.  She died in Herminie, PA.

Baseball beginnings
Lenora first began her involvement in baseball when Philip K. Wrigley owner of the Chicago Cubs financed the league in the mid-1940s, when a lot of the men were called up to serve in World War II.  In 1949, Lenora attended a tryout at McKeesport's Renziehausen Park.  From that, she was sent on a trip to Sound Bend, Indiana for spring training. According to her friend Norma Dearfield, "she had a pretty good arm."

Lenora played for the Peoria Redwings (in 1951), the South Bend Blue Sox (in 1949), and the Springfield Sallies (in 1950).

After baseball
Following her baseball career, Lenora coached softball for many years. Even in her later years, she received requests from local slow-pitch softball coaches to help out with practice.  In terms of hobbies, she had a real love of cats, taking in as many as 22 stray cats at one time.  She never married and, upon her death, was survived by her brother, Bernard, from Ligonier.

title: Waterbury Traction Company

text:
The Waterbury Traction Company was a streetcar transit operator serving the region around Waterbury, Connecticut. Originally formed in 1884 as the Waterbury Horse Railroad Company, which began service in 1886. The company was reorganized in 1893 as the Waterbury Traction Company, rebuilding and electrifying its routes by the summer of 1894.

Connecticut Lighting and Power Company bought out Waterbury Traction Company in June 1899. The name of the new consolidated company was changed to Connecticut Railway and Lighting Company in 1901. In 1906, the streetcar lines were leased to the Consolidated Railway, which later became the Connecticut Company, a subsidiary of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad.

Connecticut Company (1906-1936)
By 1908, it was possible to travel by trolley from Waterbury to Thomaston, Naugatuck. Derby, and New Haven. Increased competition from improved roads and more affordable automobiles began to take its toll on the trolley lines. The interurban route to Thomaston was abandoned in 1929, and was not converted to bus operation. Independent operation resumed in 1936 when Connecticut Company was no longer able to maintain lease payments due to parent New Haven entering receivership.

From trolley to bus (1936-1973)
Connecticut Railway and Lighting company resumed operation of the former Waterbury Traction lines in 1936. All local streetcar operations in Waterbury ended on May 22, 1937, and the route to New Haven closed a month later.

Connecticut Railway and Lighting Company bus operation continued over many of the same routes for years. All operations came to an end in 1973, and the transit franchises were surrendered to the North East Transportation Company, operating buses on a contract basis for CT Transit.

The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) founded in 1973, is a Wyoming state agency to protect, conserve and enhance the environment of Wyoming "through a combination of monitoring, permitting, inspection, enforcement and restoration/remediation activities". It consists of 6 divisions and since 1992, the Environmental Quality Council (EQC), a separate operating agency of 7 governor-appointed members.

Pressing issues have included since 2002 effects of Wyoming's rapidly expanding mineral and energy industries, such as natural gas production, fracking, oil refining, coal mining and uranium mining, including coalbed methane water management.

History
The Wyoming Legislature founded the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) in 1973 in passing the Environmental Quality Act.

In 2000, the Wyoming legislature enacted the "Voluntary Remediation of Contaminated Sites" law establishing a voluntary remediation program . Two memoranda of agreement from March 14, 2002 define how the DEQ and EPA Region 8 interact regarding contaminated sites: The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Memorandum of Agreement and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) Memorandum of Agreement.

Responsibilities
DEQ enforces state and federal environmental laws, including the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Superfund Amendments and Title III Reauthorization Act (SARA), Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 and the Wyoming Environmental Quality Act. Enforcement covers more than 17.5 million acres of public lands and 40.7 million acres of federal mineral estate, administered by the Bureau of Land Management

Organization
, the DEQ's Director has been Todd Parfitt, appointed by Matt Mead, incumbent Republican Governor of Wyoming; from 2003 until 2012 the Director had been John Corra.
In 1992, Wyoming reorganized all state agencies that deal with natural resources, and the legislature declared the EQC to be a separate operating agency. There are also two Governor-appointed, Wyoming Senate-confirmed independent entities: the Environmental Quality Council (EQC) and the Industrial Siting Council.

Apart from its administration with an Office of Outreach and Environmental Assistance the DEQ has six divisions: abandoned mine land, air quality, industrial siting which includes wind turbines, land quality for permitting/licensing of surface and underground mines, solid waste and hazardous waste, and water quality.
The public can input through four advisory boards: a state land & investment board, an advisory board for air quality, one for water and waste, and one for land quality.

, DEQ had 267 employees located in Sheridan, Lander, Casper, Rock Springs, Pinedale, and headquarters in Cheyenne, with a state budget cut at that time between 5 and 10 percent. The Wyoming state budget appropriations for the biennium from July 1, 2014, to June 30, 2016 foresaw only 264 employees. , 74 employees conducted nearly 2,900 inspections. The DEQ has requested more inspectors since 2003, and requests were defeated "with the obvious desire not to know what's going on" per former Democratic Wyoming House Representative Pete Jorgensen.

Environmental Quality Council (EQC)
The EQC has 7 members, and per statutes not more than four members can be of the same political party. In 2014 the EQC had a Republican majority. As of April 2016, the members have been:

 Rich Fairservis has been the CEO of Granite Peak Development, Wyomings largest developer, which built a crude-to-rail facility in 2014.

 Nick Agopian has been employed by Devon Energy as a government and regulatory specialist.

 David Bagley headed the Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Department at the University of Wyoming.

 Meghan O'Toole Lally was a 5th generation sheep and cattle rancher.

 Megan Degenfelder has been a spokeswoman for the coal producer Cloud Peak Energy.

 Tim Flitner is a 5th generation cattle rancher at Diamond Tail ranch.

 Aaron Clark was an environmental consultant for oil and gas development and filed natural resource permits for the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and as of 2015 was former Wyoming Game and Fish Commissioner.

Former members
Thomas Coverdale, Republican from Daniel until March 2016  and former chairman F. David Searle, Republican from Sheridan until March 2015. When his membership was extended  and he became Chairmanin 2016  Fairservis moved from Casper to Natrona count.

Industrial Siting Council
It inputs into the Industrial Siting Division.  it has the following members, which like EQC has 7 members, and per statutes not more than four members can be of the same political party:

Corra has been an executive in the mineral and chemical industries, as of 2015 consulting for FMC Corporation per the Wyoming University.

Miller has been Special Assistant, Vice President of Academic Affairs at Laramie County Community College.

O'Gara retired from teaching economics at Laramie college and owns a business offering business siting and impact analyses (Wyoming Center for Business & Economic Analysis).

 Sandy Shuptrine chaired the Teton County Conservation District. and was the lone dissenter in approving an ammonia production plant in Rock Springs by Simplot, because it was only 30% designed and contained only a single sentence about potential environmental releases.

Peter Brandjord said in 2014 "that Simplot's proposal was one of the best applications he had seen".  he was Chairman of the Wyoming Retirement System Board.

Kenneth Lantta owns KDL Consulting, and has worked for the oil and gas industry (Precision Drilling Company, L.P. Wyoming oil & gas industry safety alliance).

Former members
As of 2002, former member Greg Bierei was employed with the Thunder Basin Coal Company, L.L.C., operating the Black Thunder Mine as engineering/environmental manager per an accident investigation.
A much earlier member of the Council under Governor Stan Hathaway was Jackson Hole architect Vince Lee who served for three terms in the late 70s.

Division of air quality
Wyoming is divided into four air quality regions.  the most strictly regulated area is Sublette County, which contain the two natural gas fields of Jonah Field and Pinedale Anticline Project Area (PAPA). In 2013, 80 percent of the oil drilling permits issued by the Wyoming Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission were in Sublette County and four other counties (Campbell County, Converse County, Johnson County and Laramie County).

In the Upper Green River Basin with parts of Sublette, Lincoln County and Sweetwater County companies with multiple-well developments must place pollution controls from the beginning of operations, while single-well developments only need to install them if they emit more than four tons of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) annually.

In the 'Concentrated Development Area', comprising all of Carbon County, Fremont County, Natrona County and Uinta County and parts of Lincoln County, Wyoming and Sweetwater County, multi-well developments need pollution controls from the beginning, but single-well facilities may emit up to eight tons of VOC's per year.

In the so-called 'state region' of all remaining counties, there is a VOC limit of 10 tons annually for all types of well developments, lowered from 20 tons per year only in 2007.

In December 2013, the DEQ issued the city of Medicine Bow a permit for construction of a coal gasification plant. In 2011, the Sierra Club challenged the permit, and lost before the Wyoming Supreme Court.

Non attainment
Between 2008 and 2011, Pinedale had such high ozone levels, that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency declared it a nonattainment area. For attainment, "the area must have three years where the fourth-highest ozone level falls below the national standard". The American Lung Association gave the area a failing grade for ozone levels.

A Wyoming Department of Health's public health investigation from 2008 to 2011 found associations between short-term changes in ground-level ozone and acute respiratory problems among residents seeking healthcare within Sublette County. The Northern Arapahos and Eastern Shoshone tribes sought "state status" in order to administer air quality monitoring. In 2013 the EPA ruled on the request and determined the land actually belongs to the Wind River Indian Reservation and has for more than a century, despite a 1905 law opening it to non-tribal members.

Division of land quality
The DLQ has a permitting and licensing site for coal, and one for noncoal, including uranium.
In 2013, a DEQ feasibility study estimated that it would cost Wyoming at least $4.5 million and 1o new staff to take over regulation of uranium and thorium mining. The mining industry has pushed the state to take over, saying the Nuclear Regulatory Commission charges too much and moves too slowly.

Mine reclamation
The Land Quality Division enforces the federal Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977's obligation on mining companies to guaranty they can pay the costs of mine reclamation.  Wyoming does not require large mining companies to post a surety bond.  Instead, these companies can hold their own assets as "self-bonding".  The bankruptcy of large coal mining companies may imperil the $2.2 billion the DEQ has allowed in self-bonding.

After Arch Coal declared bankruptcy, the DEQ agreed to accept $75 million in place of the company's $486 million in self-bonding liability.  After Alpha Natural Resources declared bankruptcy, the DEQ agreed to accept $61 million in place of the company's $411 million in self-bonding liability.   On March 28, 2016 the DEQ assured the federal Office of Surface Mining that Peabody Energy's self-bonding remained adequate.  Before Peabody Energy declared bankruptcy on April 13, it held $1.47 billion in self-bonding liabilities, including $900.5 million in Wyoming alone.

Voluntary Remediation Program (VRP)
 "more than 200" contaminated sites are part of the VRP. The program lists 18 abandoned and contaminated sites, also known as orphan sites, 17 of which affect the groundwater. As of April 3, 2014, there were 9 active orphan sites, 4 of them in Cheyenne, including the Cheyenne  Perchloroethylene (PCE) Plume Orphan Site, the Casper PCE Plume Orphan Site, the Laramie PCE Plume Orphan Site, the Deluxe Cleaners and Tailors PCE and VOC Orphan Site and the former Lobell Refinery Orphan Site, as well as 9 inactive orphan sites.

After a well blowout by Windsor Energy Corp near Clark, Wyoming in August 2006, which forced evacuations and took nearly 56 hours to plug with drilling mud, liquid gas condensate and natural gas were released through a cracked well casing 255 feet below ground. On January 12, 2007 the DEQ water quality division issued a notice of violation; the company settled in August 2007 by promising to participate in the 'Voluntary Remediation Program' and paid a $2,812.50 fine. Monitoring wells showed groundwater contamination, but didn't include residential areas. In 2007, elevated levels of benzene in one private water well sped up the 2009 clean up schedule; Windsor had to deliver a clean up plan to the DEQ by May 1, 2008.  Not until 2010 did residents learn about the plan. In May 2011, Windsor presented a final remedy draft to Clark residents in a public meeting, where residents criticized lack of monitoring private wells and "some expressed frustration with Wyoming state laws that they feel favor industry over personal property rights", and where "county and the state both work together, and they're all extremely pro industry".

One year prior, Windsor Energy Group LLC had dumped at least 200 barrels of fluids from its Bennett Creek site near Clark, with the permission of the property owner and was fined about $5,000.

Budget
The 2014 budget appropriated US$142,904,296 to DEQ. Half the budget, or $74,500,000, went to the Agency of Abandoned mine reclamation. The second largest post was for water quality at $23,276,958, followed by $17,155,165 for air quality.

title: The Willo Steakhouse

text:
The Willo Steakhouse (also called The Willo) is a steakhouse and roadhouse located in Nevada City, California in the United States.

History

The Willo started as a Quonset hut, which was purchased by Bill Davis in 1947. The hut was brought from Sacramento and set up at its current location on California State Route 49 in Nevada City. Eventually, he sold the bar to two locals named Smitty and Smokey. It was then bought by Peggy and Bob Tucker in 1963. They named it Tuck's Hut. They expanded it to have a grill and served hamburgers. It was then leased to Frank Williams in 1969. Williams named it The Willo, which is a blend of his last name and Lola, his wife's given name. The restaurant was expanded to its current size by Williams and Veda Folden, who partnered to create the steakhouse. It was bought in 1976 by Ken and Jeannie Hiebert.

Around 2003, the restaurant was purchased by real estate brokers Mike Byrne and Nancy Wilson. They wanted to purchase a business in the area and decided to buy the Willo. The restaurant averages 150 dinners a night on the weekends. The Willo claims to have sold over one million steaks since the restaurant opened.

Cuisine

The Willo is a steakhouse. The house speciality is a strip steak.

Reception
The San Francisco Bay Guardian called the Willo a "roadhouse extraordinaire," and rated it as the 2nd best reason to "love Nevada City." They describe the Willo as "part redneck party in the rowdy bar, part retro dream with neon sign shining like a beacon from the dark..." It has also been compared to a place that could be seen in the television program Twin Peaks. The News & Review called the Willo one of the "few bastions of culinary Americana," and the reviewer acknowledges that they were surprised to see that they still serve Catalina dressing and that the martini glasses are smaller than most used today. 7x7 calls it a dive bar and called the bartender "surly".

title: Bill Chamber

text:
The Bill Chamber was formerly a court of Scotland, often considered as part of the Court of Session but in fact separate from it. It dealt with petitions for suspension (appeal), interdict, sequestrations etc., and was the approximate equivalent to sittings in camera (in chambers) in American or English law.

The Bill Chamber was "under the same roof" as the Court of Session, but was a separate court or jurisdiction. Its history and function were discussed in the report of the Royal Commission on the Court of Session and the Office of Sheriff Principal (1927) which concluded "the usefulness of the Bill Chamber as a Court separate from the Court of Session no longer exists" and it was thus abolished by the Administration of Justice (Scotland) Act 1933.

Some of its processes are now carried out by the Accountant in Bankruptcy.

title: Types of rapists

text:
There have been many theories set forth by researchers regarding the various types of rapists.

Barbaree typology
According to Howard Barbaree, a psychologist at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, most rapes are impulsive and opportunistic, and committed by people who may commit other impulsive acts, including impulsive crimes. These rapists tend to show no anger except in response to their victim's resistance, and use little unnecessary force.

The so-called "power rapist" is preoccupied with a fixed sexual fantasy that they try to act out in the rape, such as a fantasy in which they force a victim to have sex, and they then fall in love with them. These are the least aggressive of rapists, and are the most likely to flee if the victim puts up a strong resistance.

"Vindictive rapists" commit physically harmful assaults and with the intent to degrade and humiliate the victim.

"Anger rapists" are motivated by anger at the world at large; these are likely to inflict the most physical damage on their victims. These rapists tend to have a long history of violent crime of all sorts.

Some are sexual sadists who enjoy the victim's pain and fear.

Groth typology
Nicholas Groth has described three types of rape based on the goal of the rapist.

Power rapist

For these rapists, rape becomes a way to compensate for their underlying feelings of inadequacy and feeds their issues of mastery, control, strength, authority and capability. The intent of the power rapist is to assert their competency. The power rapist relies upon verbal threats, intimidation with a weapon, and uses only the amount of force necessary to subdue the victim.

The power rapist tends to have fantasies about rape and sexual conquests. They may believe that even though the victim initially resists them, that once they overpower their victim, the victim will eventually enjoy the rape. The rapist needs to believe that the victim enjoyed what was done to them, and they may even ask the victim to meet them for a date later.

Because this is only a fantasy, the rapist does not feel reassured for long by either their own performance or the victim's response. The rapist feels gratified by the sexual pleasure and power and will usually act again. It becomes addictive. As a narcisist feeds on compliments, the power rapist feeds on power and domination of the victim.

Hence, their offenses may become repetitive and compulsive. They may commit a series of rapes over a short period of time. This is the most common type of serial rapist of strangers in the United States.

Anger rapist
The aim of this rapist is to humiliate, debase, and hurt their victim; they express their contempt for their victim through physical violence and profane language. For these rapists, sex is a weapon to defile and degrade the victim, rape constitutes the ultimate expression of their anger. This rapist considers rape the ultimate offense they can commit against the victim.

Anger rape is characterized by physical brutality, much more physical force is used during the assault than would be necessary if the intent were simply to overpower the victim and achieve penetration. This type of offender attacks their victim by grabbing, striking and knocking the victim to the ground, beating them, tearing their clothes, and raping them.

The experience for the offender is one that is of conscious anger and rage.

Sadistic rapist
For these rapists, there is a sexual association with various concepts, has always shown aggression and the infliction of pain is eroticized. For this rapist, sexual excitement is associated with the causing of suffering upon their victim. The offender finds the intentional maltreatment of their victim intensely gratifying and takes pleasure in the victim's torment, anguish, distress, helplessness, and suffering; the offender finds the victim's struggling an erotic experience.

Sadistic rape usually involves extensive, prolonged torture and restraint. Sometimes, it can take on ritualistic or other bizarre qualities. The rapist may use some type of instrument or a foreign object to penetrate their victim. Sexual areas of the victim's body become a specific focus of injury or abuse.

The sadistic rapist's assaults are calculated. They will often wear a disguise or will blindfold their victims. Prostitutes or other individuals whom they perceive to be "promiscuous" are often the sadistic rapist's targets. The victims of a sadistic rapist may not survive the attack. For some offenders, the ultimate satisfaction is gained from murdering the victim.

Sexual gratification rapist
According to Shannon M. Barton-Bellessa, one type of rapist is the sexual gratification rapist. For this rapist, the motivation is to obtain sex. Such an offender may otherwise be lonely and may have difficulty obtaining an outlet for their sexual desires in other ways due to being unsuccessful at courtship.

The Art Farmer Quintet Plays the Great Jazz Hits is an album by Art Farmer's Quintet recorded in 1967 and originally released on the Columbia label.

Reception

Scott Yanow of Allmusic states, "The quintet's concise interpretations (no performance is over six minutes) are melodic without being overly predictable. As usual Farmer's lyricism by itself is a good reason to search for this underrated album".

Writing in Down Beat, Harvey Siders states "most tracks are played with the same inspiration one might find on a visit to the dentist," adding "that Farmer and Heath could rise above such a dismal format is a tribute to their instinct for swinging."

 "Song for My Father" (Horace Silver) - 4:36
 "'Round Midnight" (Thelonious Monk) - 5:30
 "Sidewinder" (Lee Morgan) - 3:58
 "Moanin'" (Bobby Timmons) - 4:49

title: Damir Zakhartdinov

text:
Damir Zakhartdinov (; born January 2, 1976, in Tashkent) is a retired amateur Uzbek freestyle wrestler, who competed in the men's lightweight category. Considering one of the nation's top wrestlers in his decade, Zakhartdinov has yielded a staggering record of six career medals, including a bronze in the 58-kg division at the 1999 World Wrestling Championships in Ankara, Turkey, and seized an opportunity to represent Uzbekistan in three editions of the Olympic Games (1996, 2000, and 2004). Having served as a soldier in CSKA Tashkent, Zakhartdinov trained throughout his sporting career as a member of its wrestling team under head coach Mamur Ruziev.

Zakhartdinov made his official debut at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, where he competed in the men's bantamweight class (57 kg). Being successful early in the opening rounds, he entered the third round undefeated, but fell to Canada's Guivi Sissaouri with a 0–8 verdict. He lost again to Iran's Mohammad Talaei in the repechage 2–4, and subsequently, to Belarus' Aleksandr Guzov in the final playoff by a rigid 3–2 verdict, dropping him to eighth place.

Determined to return to the Olympic scene, Zakhartdinov entered the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney as a top medal contender in the men's featherweight division (58 kg). Earlier in the process, he picked up a bronze over Armenia's Martin Berberyan at the 1999 World Wrestling Championships in Ankara, Turkey. During the preliminary competition, Zakhartdinov lost his opening match 4–1 to Russia's Murad Ramazanov, but bounced back to subdue Turkey's Harun Doğan (3–0) and pin Moldova's Octavian Cuciuc with only thirty seconds left. Zakhartdinov placed first during the preliminary competition based on technical points, reached the semifinals, but fell behind Ukraine's Yevhen Buslovych in overtime with a 2–0 decision. Zakhartdinov faced U.S. wrestler Terry Brands in the bronze medal match, but could not throw him down the mat and missed the podium by a single point to close the record 3–2, finishing only in fourth place.

At the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Zakhartdinov qualified for his third Uzbek squad, as a 28-year-old, in the men's 60 kg class. Weighing at two kilograms heavier than the previous Games, Zakhartdinov received a berth and rounded out the ninth spot in the lightweight category from the 2003 World Wrestling Championships in New York City, New York, United States. He started the preliminary competition with a surprising 3–2 victory over Japan's Kenji Inoue, before being overwhelmed by Austria's Lubos Cikel in a 5–6 verdict and South Korea's Jung Young-ho on a marvelous technical fall. Placing last in the preliminary competition and ninth overall, Zakhartdinov failed to advance to the quarterfinals.

Zakhartdinov also competed in two editions of the Asian Games (2002 and 2006), but fell behind the medal podium. Shortly after his sporting career ended in 2006, he moved to the United States to work with Rod Gaddy and coach young wrestlers for the Alabama State Wrestling Team in Birmingham, Alabama.

title: Jones + Co

text:
Jones & Co (originally known as Richo + Jones) is a weekly Australian television news and commentary program, broadcast on Sky News Australia. The program airs each Tuesday night at 8pm AEST. Its current co-hosts are Alan Jones and Peta Credlin, while previous co-hosts alongside Jones include Graham Richardson and Mark Latham.

The series focuses on mainly political topics. The program usually beings with the duo interviewing a prominent politician or political commentator. In the final segment of the show, Richo and Credlin discuss a variety of topics between themselves.

Background
The program is a spin-off of the Richo program which premiered 23 February three years earlier and is hosted solely by Richardson.

It was originally titled Richo + Jones and co-hosted by Graham Richardson and Alan Jones when it premiered in February 2014, but due to Richardson's ill health, Mark Latham replaced him as co-host in 2016 (at Jones' suggestion), and the program was re-titled to its current name. Management declined to simply retitle the show Jones and Latham because they were concerned Latham was "too much of a risk" as host and instead used the more general name Jones & Co.

Latham's employment was terminated by Sky News on 29 March 2017 following several controversial statements made on the program and his other program Outsiders with his last appearance on 21 March 2017. In May 2017, Peta Credlin was named the new co-host of the program.

From 25 November 2014 the show was simulcast on radio 2GB alongside the Sky News broadcast, however this has since been discontinued.

Guest hosts

For a few weeks in July 2014 while Jones was commentating the 2014 Commonwealth Games for another network, Peter Reith filled in for Jones on the program, however it was still referred to on air as Richo + Jones.

Jones hosted the program solo on September 23, 2014 when Richo was absent for an unspecified health reason. On September 30 and October 7, 2014, Kristina Keneally filled in for Richo while he was on holidays, and the show was also referred to as Jones + Keneally in some promos during this period.

Frequently throughout 2015, Jones hosted the program alone due to Richo's ill health and associated cancer treatments. The program was referred to as Jones + Beattie when Peter Beattie filled in for Richo on June 23, 2015.

From April 2016, the program was retitled  Jones + Co due to Richardson being absent while undergoing major surgery, with Mark Latham among those guest co-hosting with Jones.

Reception
The highest rating episode of the season (as of September 2014) was on 21 August 2013, which reached 55,000 viewers. The episode on 22 April 2014 was the twentieth most watched show on subscription television reaching 39,000 viewers and was the channel's second highest broadcast that day. An episode on 17 June, featuring a live interview with Clive Palmer, was the seventeenth most watched show on subscription television and the most watched broadcast on Sky News with 43,000 viewers.

Jones & Co posted 29% audience growth year-on-year in the first half of 2018.

title: Native Appropriations

text:
Native Appropriations is a blog that critically discusses the ways that Indigenous people are depicted in mainstream, Euro-American dominated, culture.  Active since 2010, the website is created and maintained by Cherokee Nation scholar Adrienne Keene.

Subjects
Some of the most frequently discussed topics on the blog are "hipster headdresses", the Native American mascot controversy and appropriation and misrepresentations of Native American cultures in Hollywood movies.  Targets of critique include the Washington Redskins use of an ethnic slur as the name for their football team, The Lone Ranger movie remake, misrepresentations of Native American spiritual beliefs in the work of author J. K. Rowling, the wearing of a hipster headdress and statements by musician Christina Fallin, Halloween "Pocahottie" costumes, and Urban Outfitters. Though much of the blog's commentary is critical, it is not exclusively so: Nelly Furtado, for example, has been praised for her respectful engagement with Native hoop and shawl dancers.

Coverage and influence
Keene observes that Native Americans are barely represented in mainstream media, and journalists often turn to non-Native sources, rather than to Natives themselves, on the rare occasions when they do cover Native issues. However, the increasing popularity of her blog and appearance on other social media such as Twitter has made her a widely quoted expert on matters to do with appropriations, with mentions in the BBC, NPR, The Guardian, the Phoenix New Times, Al Jazeera, Time magazine and other major news outlets. The Guardian has credited her with leading a successful campaign against stereotypical imagery created by Paul Frank Industries: the company later invited Keene and other experts to help design new product lines working with Native artists.
