Monaghan County Council elections


The 1944 United States presidential election in Virginia took place on November 7, 1944, throughout the 48 contiguous states. Voters chose 11 representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.

Virginia voted for the Democratic nominee, incumbent President Franklin D. Roosevelt, over the Republican nominee, New York Governor Thomas E. Dewey. Roosevelt ultimately won the national election with 53.39% of the vote.

This was the last election until 2020 where the Democratic candidate won Virginia by a double-digit margin. It is also the last occasion the following county-equivalents have voted for a Democratic Presidential nominee: Augusta County, Mathews County, Northumberland County, Richmond County and Roanoke County. The independent city of Staunton would not vote Democratic again until Barack Obama in 2008.

title: Walter de Claville

text:
Walter I de Claville (floruit 1086) (alias de Clarville and Latinised to de Clavilla) was an Anglo-Norman magnate and one of the 52 Devon Domesday Book tenants-in-chief of King William the Conqueror. He also held lands in Dorset. His Devonshire estates later formed part of the feudal barony of Gloucester.

Origins
He is believed to have originated at any one of the manors called Claville or Clasville in the Duchy of Normandy, namely:
Claville near Évreux
Claville-Motteville near Yvetot
Clasville near Cany Barville
His brother was Gotshelm, also a Devonshire tenant-in-chief, whose estates also later formed part of the feudal barony of Gloucester.

Progeny
It is not known whether he married and left progeny, however Walter II de Claville (supposed by Cleveland to be his grandson) in about 1170 gave many of Walter I's former  Domesday Book estates to a priory which he established on his estate of Leigh within his manor of Burlescombe, later known as Canons' Leigh Priory. Furthermore,  several of his estates were held in the 13th century by a certain "William de Claville", as recorded in the Book of Fees (see list below).

Succession

Sir William Pole (d.1635) gives the descent of the manor of Lomen Clavill, in the parish of Uplowman, as follows:
Walter I de Claville, Domesday Book tenant
William I de Claville
Sir Walter II de Claville
William II de Claville
Sir Walter III de Claville
Sir William III de Claville
Sir Roger I de Claville, who according to Risdon died sans issue and was succeeded by his nephew William Clavell.
John I de Claville (brother), heir of Roger I according to Pole. Apparently the John Clavell who according to Risdon was the grandson of William and died in the reign of King Edward III (1327-1377), having been "slain the next day after his marriage, coming from London to these parts, but his wife was conceived with child and brought a son, who had this (Lomen Clavell) and other his father's inheritance". Risdon however gives his son and heir as William.
John II de Claville (son), according to Pole.
John III de Claville
William IV de Claville (son)
William V de Claville (son), died without progeny

According to Sir William Pole (d.1635), the male line of the Clavell family was extinguished during the reign of King Richard II (1377-1399). The heir to Lomen Clavell was the Beare family, lords of the nearby manor of Huntsham. There was however at some time a dispute over the inheritance between Thomas Beare and Sir Henry Perchey (alias Percehay). The hamlets of Lomen Clavell and Bukinton Clavell still retained the family's name in the 19th century. According to Pole the arms of "Clavill of Burlescombe" were: Or, three keys gules which are thus canting arms alluding to the Latin clavis, meaning a "key".

In Dorsetshire however the family continued longer than the Devonshire branch and according to Hutchins (d.1773) the Dorsetshire historian: "the family of Clavell could boast an antiquity not to be equalled in this county and very rarely in any other", and was carried on in the male line until the latter half of the 17th century.

Landholdings in Devon
The manors or fees held by Walter I de Claville were recorded as 32 separate entries in the following order in the Domesday Book (with modern-day spellings):

Landholdings in Dorset
In Dorset he held five manors including East Morden, since known as Morden-Maltravers. According to Hutchins four of the manors held by Walter de Claville in Domesday "seem to have passed at a very early period to a younger son—perhaps before the time of Henry II. Robert de Clavile held a fee in 'Porbica' in the time of Henry I., of which two hides were given to the Abbot of Tewkesbury, probably about 1106, soon after the Monastery of Cranborne became a priory dependent upon the former house. The gift was conferred by charter of King Henry I. In 12 Hen. II., (i.e. 1166 Cartae Baronum) Radulphus de Clavill held one fee in Dorset of Alured de Lincoln, of the "new feoffment", and Robert de Clavile held another of Gerbert de Perci, of the "old feoffment". Tewkesbury Abbey was founded by the Earl of Gloucester and thus is a link to the Honour of Gloucester to which Walter I's Devonshire holdings passed. The arms of the Clavell family of Dorset were: Argent, on a chevron sable three chapeaux or.

title: Ryosuke Ogata

text:
is a Japanese professional baseball outfielder for the Hanshin Tigers in Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball.

High School/College Baseball Career

Raised by parents who were both avid Hanshin fans, Ryosuke was able to watch a lot of the Tiger's games in Koshien as a child. According to him, he wanted to become like Tsuyoshi Shinjo, a former Hanshin player.

He attended PL Gakuen High School where he played as a center-fielder. During his 2nd year, he participated in the autumn Kinki Tournament but their team was defeated in their first match. The year after, his team managed to make it to the finals of the Southern Osaka Tournament. However, they lost to Kinki University's high school team when the opponent scored a hit at the end of overtime, ending their chance to make it to the National Baseball Championship Tournament.

He attended the same high school as Kenta Maeda of the Hiroshima Carp, who is 2 years his senior.

He then entered Toyo University where he participated in the Tohto University Baseball League. During his first year, their team won their 2nd consecutive All Japan University Baseball Championship Series. He was elected as team captain on his senior year. On the spring of that year, he underwent reconstructive surgery due to an injury to his right knee.

In the 71 games he played during college, he finished with a record of .200 batting average, 3 home runs and 18 RBIs.

His motto was "Devote yourself wholeheartedly".

Hanshin Tigers

He was the Tigers no. 6 pick in the 2012 draft, and was assigned the uniform no. 65. When asked which pitcher he would like the most to play against after he turned professional, he answered Kenta Maeda.

In 2013, in order for him to better adjust after undergoing knee surgery, he was given a separate training menu during the spring rookie training. His first regular game appearance was on May 3, in a match vs Tokyo Yakult Swallows at Koshien. He substituted as a pinch runner for Matt Murton who just delivered a 2-base hit. He was then driven in by Hayata Ito. For the remainder of the season, he played in the team's ni-gun games.

In 2014, he again returned to ichi-gun where he made it to the team's starting line-up as right outfielder on May 13. On June 7's inter-league match with Orix Buffaloes, he recorded his first RBI and home-run from Tohmei Daiki. A week later, in the game vs. the Seibu Lions, he hit a 3-run homer off Ryoma Nogami during the fifth inning, and then scored another run at the bottom of the 6th, earning him his first ever victory hero interview.

Playing style

Ryosuke is a 176 cm outfielder whose right arm boasts a 120-meter throwing distance。. His 50-meter dash was clocked at 5.8 seconds, and his defensive range is broad. Batting-wise, he delivers a compact swing.

Personal life

Instead of the usual omamori (good luck charm), his father handed down to him a 1.3 kg baseball bat that he used since he was 5th grade in elementary. He still uses it for practice, and hangs it in his room during the team's away games.

title: Hunter Greene (basketball)

text:
Hunter Greene played college basketball at the University of New Mexico from 1983 to 1988.  At 6' 6" he played primarily guard and wing. He was a versatile all-around player, accomplished scorer, and strong defender for the Lobos and head coach Gary Colson.

Career

Early years

Greene played high school basketball at Van Nuys High School, where he was 3A Player of the Year in Southern California in 1982–83. He only began playing organized basketball as a sophomore in high school, and
he played sparingly in his first year at New Mexico, averaging 1.4 points in 25 game appearances. He continued developing his skills in a pro-am circuit summer league in Los Angeles, getting more comfortable as a guard and shooter.

The summer league work paid off, and as a sophomore, in 1984–85, Greene became a starter for the Lobos, averaging 11.4 points and 4.3 rebounds a game. Greene shared backcourt duties with fellow sophomore Kelvin Scarborough, and the young Lobo squad went 19–13 with an appearance in the NIT. Four starters were returning for the 1985–86 season, but Greene was injured during a preseason practice and missed the season.

Junior and senior seasons
Greene returned for his junior year in 1986–87 to lead New Mexico with 21.1 points and 6.2 rebounds a game. The team set the Lobo season record for most steals, and Greene set the individual Lobo record for number of steals in a season (84). Scarborough averaged 18.9 points and six assists and set the Lobo career record for steals. The Lobos beat Texas and Oklahoma State and built a 17–5 record before losing three straight on the road in a strong year for the WAC. They then won eight straight and reached the conference tournament final, missing a last second shot and losing to Wyoming, which would go on to the Sweet Sixteen in the NCAA tournament. The WAC placed three teams in the NCAA, but the Lobos settled for the NIT. They finished the season 25–10, the most wins for a Lobo team up to that time.

Greene was a smooth scorer and versatile player who maintained a composed countenance on the court, leading quietly by example. As a senior, he averaged 16.8 points and 6.8 rebounds and again led the team in steals. His most memorable moment came in a game named by a panel of writers as the top game ever at The Pit, the home venue of the Lobos. New Mexico was hosting #1 Arizona, led by All-Americans Sean Elliott and Steve Kerr. The Lobos built an early 25–9 lead, and the Wildcats slowly came back. Elliott had a chance to put Arizona into the lead with seconds left, but Greene blocked the shot to seal the win, the only time the Lobos have beaten a #1-ranked team. New Mexico beat #5 Wyoming a week later and climbed into the rankings at #19. They fell into a 6–10 slide, however, struggling badly on the road. They again went to the NIT, where they won two games before losing in the quarter-finals to finish the season 22–14.

Greene finished his career as the leading scorer in Lobo history, with 1,745 points, though he has since fallen to seventh, and he is second in career steals, behind Scarborough. He is the only Lobo ever to surpass 1,500 points, 600 rebounds, 300 assists, and 200 steals. The Lobos went 90–48 during his four years, with four NIT appearances.

title: Kelvin Scarborough

text:
Kelvin Scarborough (October 8, 1964 – December 1, 2020) was an American basketball player. He played college basketball at the University of New Mexico from 1983 to 1987. He was a 6' 1" point guard for the Lobos and head coach Gary Colson.

Playing career

High school
Scarborough played high school basketball at Eastern High School in Washington, D.C., where he was All-Metro Conference. He was a highly sought-after recruit, noted for his quickness, penetrating ability, and perimeter shooting. He was one of the quickest Lobo players ever, as a ball handler and defender.

Freshman and sophomore seasons
The 1983-84 Lobos relied heavily on four senior starters, with only three other players contributing significant minutes, including freshman Scarborough. He appeared in 32 games, averaging 12.4 minutes and 4.2 points per game. The Lobos won at #7 UCLA on the way to a 16–4 record, but they lost three games to top ten-ranked WAC rival UTEP, then appeared in the NIT, finishing the year 24–11.

The Lobos in 1984-85 were a young squad, starting three sophomores, including Scarborough and backcourt mate Hunter Greene. Scarborough averaged 10.6 points and a team-best 5.5 assists a game. He averaged 2.5 steals per game, a Lobo season record, and his 80 steals are the second best Lobo season total. The team got off to a shaky start, at 6–5, but then won eight of nine to take a share of the WAC lead. They faltered down the stretch, however, and finished third. They returned to the NIT, where they beat Texas A&M before losing to Fresno State and finishing 19–13.

Junior and senior seasons
The Lobos had four starters returning in 1985-86 until Greene was injured in the preseason. Forward Johnny Brown turned in an All-WAC performance, but the other inside players were young, and the loss of Greene left a hole in the backcourt. Scarborough averaged 10.8 points and 4.2 rebounds a game and again led the team with 4.9 assists and 1.7 steals per game. The Lobos played well at The Pit, but they suffered mightily on the road, including blowout losses at #6 Georgetown and at Arizona. They finished fifth in the WAC but still gained an invitation to the NIT, where they lost to Texas to finish 17–14.

As a senior in 1986–87, Scarborough had his best season, averaging 18.9 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 2.2 steals a game. He led the team in assists with 6.1 per game, field goal percentage (.535), and minutes played, the third most for a season in Lobo history, and he made the third most free throws in a Lobo season. The Lobos set the still-standing team record for most steals in a season, led by Scarborough and Greene. The Lobos beat Texas and Oklahoma State as they built a 17–5 record but then lost three straight on the road in a strong year for the WAC. They then won eight straight and reached the conference tournament final, missing a last second shot and losing to Wyoming, which would go on to the Sweet Sixteen in the NCAA tournament. The WAC placed three teams in the NCAA, but the Lobos again settled for the NIT. They finished the season 25–10, the most wins for a Lobo team up to that time, and Scarborough was named first team All-WAC.

In his career at New Mexico, Scarborough tallied the most steals in Lobo history, the fourth most assists, and the fifth most minutes played. He dished out 21 assists in a single game, a Lobo record and tied with three others for second most in NCAA history, one behind the record. He was the second leading scorer in Lobo history when he finished playing, though he has now slipped to twelfth. The Lobos compiled a record of 85–48 with four NIT appearances during Scarborough's career.

title: California Silk Center Association

text:
The California Silk Center Association was a short-lived 19th century company in the U.S. state of California which encouraged silk culture. It founded what is now the city of Riverside, California. The association was established in November 1869 in Los Angeles, but after the death of its president and only expert in sericulture, Frenchman Louis Provost, in 1870, the silk-growing scheme was abandoned. By then the superintendent of the company had purchased about  in the vicinity of Rubidoux Rancho, with a further expansion of  already arranged. A number of mulberry trees had been planted to provide nourishment for the silkworms.

Background
To encourage silk culture in California, the Legislature, in 1865-66 (another source states 1867), passed an act giving a bounty of $250 for every plantation of 5,000 mulberry trees two years old, and one of $300 for every 100,000 merchantable cocoons produced. This greatly encouraged the planting of trees and the production of cocoons.

History
The California Silk Center Association was formed with a large capital on paper. The association bought  which now form part of Riverside. It was the intention of the association to found a colony there of silk growers and silk weavers. Sixty families were reported ready to locate on the colony grounds as soon as negotiations were completed. Prevost, the leader of the group, died shortly after the purchase was made, and the colony project died later. At first, the profits from the seri-culture fad were large, not, however, from the manufacture of silk, but from the sale of silkworm eggs. When the industry was launched, eggs sold at ten dollars an ounce and the worms were good layers. One seri-culturist reported a net profit of US$1,000 an acre made in sixty days from the sale of eggs. Another realized US$1,260 an acre in a single season. The net profits from his three acres of trees and cocoons exceeded the net profit on his neighbor's 10,000 acres of grain. With such immense returns from such small investments, it is not strange that the sericulture craze became epidemic. Mulberry plantations multiplied until the bounties paid threatened the state treasury with bankruptcy; in 1867 or 1868, the law was repealed. Out of the hundreds of thousands of bounty-bought cocoons, only one piece of silk was known to be manufactured, and that was a flag for the State Capitol. Counting bounties paid and labor lost on a non-producing industry, indirectly that flag cost the people of the commonwealth not less than US$250,000.

The dry year of 1869-70 prevented the planting of mulberry plantations. A writer in the Overland Monthly of 1869 noted: "It is almost startling to think that from a calling so apparently insignificant we may be able to realize in a short time a larger sum and infinitely greater gains than from one-half of all our other agricultural productions in the State."
Prevost died in April 1870. With the increased supply, the price of eggs declined until it was all supply and no demand. Then the seri-culture epidemic came to as sudden a stop. The worms died of starvation and the bounty-bought mulberry plantations perished from neglect. Of the millions of trees planted, all died. The Silk Center Association sold its land holding to Judge John W. North's Riverside Colony.  The experiment failed, but not because California was unsuited to silk culture. The defects were in the seri-culturists, not in the soil or climate of the State. There was no concert of action among the producers. They were scattered from Siskiyou to San Diego. There were not enough producers in any one place to build a factory, and not enough weavers in the country to manufacture the raw silk produced; nor could capital be induced to invest in silk factories.

Utility and commuter cycling
A number of commuter cycle routes have been developed into the city centre, while parking for bicycles is provided in several locations around the city centre.  A new route is being devised linking Meanwood and Chapeltown with the city centre.

Cycle Superhighway
West Yorkshire Metro proposed a 23 km cycle superhighway linking the city centres of Leeds and Bradford via Pudsey, with another route between Leeds City Centre and Shipley while both western routes would be linked to an eastern route linking Leeds City Centre with Seacroft, Swarcliffe and Cross Gates using the A64 as its artery.  Work began on the scheme in 2015 with the main East-West artery being completed in 2017.

Leisure cycling
There are a number of cycle routes in and around the city aimed at recreational cyclists, such as the Harland Way around Wetherby and the 127 mile long towpath by the Leeds and Liverpool Canal.  For BMX cycling there are the Adel Woods Dirt Tracks.  There are a number of cycling clubs in the city such as Leeds BMX and Seacroft Wheelers.

title: Foothill woodland

text:
Foothill woodland is a California vegetation type characterized by an overstory of broadleaf and coniferous trees, generally found in areas of higher elevations and more precipitation than grasslands and oak savannah, and at lower elevations and less precipitation than mixed coniferous.

Sierra Nevada range
In the Sierra Nevada range, it is found on western slopes at elevations of  in the northern part of the range,  in the central part, and  in the southern part. Annual precipitation in its range is , with little precipitation in the summer. Growing season is 6–10 months. Temperatures range  in the summer, and  in winter.

In the Sierra Nevada range, it is characterized by a dominant overstory of Foothill Pine (Pinus sabiniana), Blue Oak (Quercus douglasii), Interior Live Oak (Quercus chrysolepis), California Black Oak (Quercus kelloggii), California Buckeye (Aesculus californica), and understory plants including Ceanothus spp., Toyon (Heteromeles arbutifolia), Dogwood (Cornus spp.), and Redbud (Cercis occidentalis). It is often found on north facing slopes there is more moisture in the soils from protection from the sun (slope effect).

Regional decline
Foothill Woodlands have declined as a result of development. In California counties, 64% have noted decreases greater than 5%. More residential commercial development has been occurring. A number of range lands have and continue to be converted.

title: Bertoni-Altinger BA-1 Superalbatros

text:
The Bertoni Altinger AB-1 Superalbatros (aka Alinger-Bertoni AB-1 Superalbatros) is a high-performance sailplane designed and built in Argentina in the 1950s and 1960s.

Design and development
The AB-1 Superalbatros was conceived in 1954 by a group of designers at the Club Argentino de Planeadores Albatros – (Albatros, Argentine gliding club), transforming over the next 15 years to result in the high performance glider that entered flight test in 1969.

First iteration

The initial design, by Jorge Bertoni  and his team, was for a glider with wooden wings and welded steel tube fuselage, construction of which started in late 1955.

Second iteration

In 1956 Teodoro Altinger joined the team after his return from Germany, suggesting that the aircraft be re-designed to take advantage of research and construction techniques developed at Akaflieg Darmstadt.
The new laminar-flow wing sections developed by Franz Wortmann and the shaped foam / plywood construction method, (a la Akaflieg Darmstadt D-34), promised great improvements in performance, due to reduced drag and more accurate profiles. Altinger soon returned to Germany to continue his studies and construction soon floundered.

Third iteration

Bertoni was joined in April 1957 by  Ricardo Olmedo, but progress was still slow until 1960, when the success of Argentinian pilot Rolf Hossinger at the 1960 World Gliding Championship at Köln, (Cologne), in Germany, inspired Bertoni to redesign the fuselage with a much finer fineness ratio fuselage to reduce drag as much as possible. The new fuselage was to be built from a balsa wood / glass-fibre sandwich to obtain a smooth finish with relatively easy construction.

Description
The final version of the AB-1 was a  flapped sailplane with wings built from plywood shaped around accurately cut balsa wood ribs and foam cores, with a fuselage constructed of balsa wood / glass-fibre sandwich skins over built-up wooden frames and steel high strength parts. The high fineness ratio (diameter or area over length) fuselage formed into an integral fin at the extreme end of the fuselage which supported the rudder and T-tail with split elevators. At the nose of the fuselage, forward of the wings, the pilot sat in a sharply reclined seat in the cockpit under a full-length canopy. The 6° forward swept wings sit on the shoulders of the centre fuselage which also has the single mainwheel. Just aft of the wings, on either side, are a pair of large area paddle airbrakes hinged at the leading-edge, intended for approach control. After poor results and an accident caused by the fuselage airbrakes, the full span flaps / ailerons were modified to deflect to 90° for approach control.

Operational history
Flight testing of the AB-1 commenced on 6 May 1969 revealed a good performance with good handling characteristics, but poor results from the fuselage mounted air-brakes, which caused an accident during a landing.
The AB-1 was flown with qualified success in several Argentine national Gliding Competitions in the 1970s, being modified several times to improve performance, but the AB-1 was soon out-classed in performance and was eventually retired to the San Andres de Giles gliding club.

title: Mei Mei

text:
Mei Mei is a 2009 Chinese and US co-production drama short film directed by Xu Xiaoxi and written by Roberto F. Canuto and Xu Xiaoxi. The film's premiere took place in Hungary, where the film was part of the official selection at the 3rd Annual Slow Film International Film Festival, a successor to the 32-year-old Hungary Film Festival, born of the Film Art Initiative that includes films from Europe and North America. Mei Mei was screened in late August 2009 to an international crowd and was received as one of the festival's finest.

Mei Mei tells the story of the neighbours Lulu and Julian. Lulu is a prostitute who receives constant visits from Julian, as he believes that she is his missing ex-girlfriend, Mei Mei. Thinking that he is merely trying to win her over, Lulu rejects his advances, but something happen that makes Lulu change her impression.  From there, the two embark on a journey in search of companionship in a beautiful and heartbreaking love story.

Australian actress Janet Chiarabaglio, best known for her roles in Songbird (Official Selection of the 2007 Sundance Film Festival), Inspector Gadget II, and Jeopardy 3, appears in the lead role following her Jury Award at the Boston Independent Film Festival. Los Angeles-based Alex Best, whose feature credits include American Dreamz with Dennis Quaid and Vicious Circle (winner of the Best Film in the New York International Latino Film Festival) is the male lead of the cast, as the love sick Julian.

The film, due to the relationship that the main character Lulu establish with her "special friend" CoCo, was included in some LGBT events, as lesbianism is in the subtext of the story.

The film also received the nomination for Best Cinematography at the 2009 Kodak Scholarship Awards in the United States, being the official representative of NYFA from Los Angeles.

Plot
Lulu, a high class prostitute, receives constant visits from her neighbor Julian, as he believes that she is his missing ex-girlfriend Mei Mei. He begs her for the chance to start their relationship again. Lulu rejects him as she thinks that he is just making up stories to win her over. Soon she starts to miss him, however it may be late as she discovers that Julian has found the real Mei Mei, who looks startlingly similar to her.

Production

Mei Mei director, Xu Xiaoxi, created the film as a graduation project at the New York Film Academy (NYFA) at the Universal Studios in Hollywood, but he finish the post-production after graduation, including the involving and atmospheric music of Andrea Centazzo. The film was one of the first collaborations of the director with the composer, that work together in the next projects, the feature film Desire Street and the short film Ni Jing: Thou Shalt Not Steal. In both cases Xu Xiaoxi co-directed with Roberto F. Canuto.

The film was shot on 16mm film by a grant from Kodak and the principal photography took place in the Summer 2008 in California. Some of the locations where Munholland Drive in Los Angeles and Burbank in California. The postproduction was completed in 2010.

Xu, in addition to his directorial films, has worked as a video artist, cinematographer, and editor, collaborating with Roberto F. Canuto in the short film Toto Forever (Best Short winner at the 3rd LesgaycinePTY International Film Festival of Panama and Third Award at 9th Asturian Film Festival in Spain, among other distinctions).

Director Xiaoxi Xu mentions that his focus in creating the film “was to explore the internal feeling of an abused and beaten down woman that tries to move forward with her life, turning the tables and using men as objects through her career as a prostitute”. The film also addresses the question of identity. “I create two characters that look identical and probably are also very similar in terms of general personality, but their life experiences and environment determine their confidence and how they find control in their lives.”

Reception

After the screening in "Hungary's Slow International Film Festival", the reactions were very positive, and it was received as one of the festival finest works. Some of the media mention that Mei Mei is a "beautiful and heartbreaking love story".
In addition to the festival selection, the film received a nomination for Best Cinematography at the Kodak Scholarship Awards 2009, in representation of NYFA from Universal Studios, Hollywood. The director of photography of Mei Mei was the filmmaker and usual collaborator of Xu, Roberto F. Canuto.

Keighley is an unincorporated community in Butler County, Kansas, United States.

History
A post office was opened in Keighley in 1880, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1943.

Until 1925, Keighley was a stop on the St. Louis–San Francisco Railway, east of Augusta. That changed after the first oil strike. The small trading post grew to a community of 500 people and included a grain elevator, a hardware store, hotel, lumber yard, café, post office and general store.  In 1927, Keighley District completed at a cost of $15,000 a brick school building. In 1926, a fire destroyed the lumber yard and hotel. The brick school house burned down and was replaced in 1948 by a school house of cinder block, which still stands. By 1934, the once busy roads of Keighley were again simply highways. Today, it is on U.S. Route 400 east of Leon, Kansas and west of Beaumont, Kansas.

title: John J. Hopfield (spectroscopist)

text:
John Joseph Hopfield (July 8, 1891 – January 8, 1953) was a Polish-American physicist. Hopfield's published research included vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopy and solar ultraviolet spectroscopy. He was the discoverer of the "Hopfield bands" of oxygen and co-discoverer of the "Lyman–Birge–Hopfield bands" of nitrogen.  For about a decade he was an industrial physicist working with technologies for fabricating glass windows, and was the inventor listed on several related patents.

Career
Born in Poland, little is known about Hopfield's upbringing. He was admitted to Syracuse University around 1913, and completed his A.B. degree in 1917 and then worked as an instructor through 1919. At Syracuse, he had worked as an assistant with Raymond Thayer Birge, who moved to University of California, Berkeley around this time. Hopfield was then admitted to Berkeley with a fellowship, and was awarded his doctorate for spectroscopic work in 1923. He became an instructor and assistant professor of physics at Berkeley, and was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1928 to work with Friedrich Paschen for a year in Berlin.

By the time he left Berlin in 1929, the stock market crash and depression had ended most new faculty hiring.  Purdue University appointed him as a National Research Council Fellow for two years.  He next was employed in creating the physics exhibit for the 1933 "Century of Progress" World's Fair in Chicago. This was followed by a position with the Libbey-Owens-Ford glass company in Toledo, Ohio.  With the onset of the Second World War, physicists were again in great demand, and he moved to Washington DC to participate in war-related research.  The end of his career was spent at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory and at the Naval Research Laboratory in the Optics Division in Washington, D.C.. On January 8, 1953, Hopfield died after a brief illness.

Hopfield's son, J. J. Hopfield, was born in 1933 and also became a noted physicist.

title: GolfNow

text:
GolfNow is an online booking service for tee times at golf courses. Originally established in 2001 by Cypress Golf Solutions in Scottsdale, Arizona, US, it was acquired by Comcast via its Golf Channel unit in March 2008. Since Comcast's purchase of NBC Universal, the website operates as part of the NBC Sports Digital unit.

History
The GolfNow.com domain name was initially used by Chris Ryan and Dr. Tom Giannulli, in Houston, Texas, in 1999, with the intent to build the first online golf reservation system. Under Ryan's leadership, the company went on to develop and operate the initial Golfnow.com website until 2001. Funding issues and sluggish adoption of their reservation platform in the era of dial-up modems, forced the company to pivot to a more content driven transaction model. Cypress Golf Solutions, which was founded in Scottsdale by Brett Darrow and Frank Halpin in 2001, purchased the GolfNow.com domain name. The company expanded its GolfNow brand and operations to a larger regional area over the years, and by 2006 it was operating in 17 states at over 600 golf courses.

In March 2008, Comcast, owner of Golf Channel, purchased GolfNow. The company's operations were re-located to Golf Channel's headquarters in Orlando, Florida. In the same year, the company facilitated the booking of 2.4 million rounds.

GolfNow extended its services outside the United States in 2011 to Ireland through GolfNow.ie. In 2013, GolfNow purchased BRS, a booking service in the United Kingdom, along with Fore! Reservations, one of the largest tee time companies in the US. In 2011, GolfNow offered to acquire EZLinks, a competing company backed by the PGA Tour. GolfNow hired a former EZLinks employee. In 2012, EZLinks filed a lawsuit over software theft through the former employee.

In October 2014, GolfNow acquired Active Network's golf division. The acquisition added 1,100 courses to GolfNow's service. In 2015, GolfNow facilitated the booking of nearly 15 million rounds.

This was GolfNow's fourth acquisition in 18 months. It acquired BRS Golf, a British tee-sheet service with 750 courses and FORE! Reservations, an American counterpart with more than 2,000 golf courses. More recently, it acquired Crescent Systems, which had 300 to 400 clients.

In November 2019, GolfNow acquired EZLinks.

Features
GolfNow offers access to online booking services for over 9,000 golf courses. Users can compare prices of tee times across multiple courses, read user reviews, and book their reservation.

GolfNow also offers a mobile app; the free version offers the service's core search and booking functionality, while a subscription-based premium version adds additional features for use while playing, including a scorecard, personal statistics and an "on-course GPS" function allowing access to overhead satellite maps of holes with distance measurements.

Impact
The Orlando Sentinel reported that GolfNow has had a positive impact on the business of golf courses in Orlando, noting that the service helped to encourage business during previously "off-peak" parts of the day such as the early afternoon. The general manager of Orlando's Dubsdread Golf Club felt that GolfNow had helped customers discover the course among other options in the region, crediting the service for "getting our name and our prices to those golfers who normally would not drive past 15, 20 golf courses to come play golf here". The service was also credited with having attracted existing golfers to new courses, such as the Four Seasons Resort Orlando's Tranquilo, and new clientele to existing courses. Orlando was GolfNow's fifth-largest market in 2015, having generated $14.5 million in revenue from partner courses.

There are articles and reviews to the contrary: The Oaks golf course in Kentucky posted a rebuttal to GolfNow's claims of helping the sport, but more directly, the golf courses. The Hot Deals, it claims, are chased by players only wanting to pay the least no matter what, and none of that money ever gets to the golf course.  It also claims that very few, if any, customers return unless they again find a Hot Deal, which in no way helps with daily operating expenses. The Oaks has ceased to do business with GolfNow.

title: Upper montane forest

text:
The upper montane forest is a vegetation type generally found above the mixed coniferous forest and below the subalpine forest vegetation types. Most of what grows in upper montane forests are conifers, because of the short growing season.

Pike and San Isabel National Forests
In the Pike National Forest and San Isabel National Forest of the Rocky Mountains, the upper montane forest is also called the "moist forest", with the mixed coniferous below called "dry forest", and the subalpine forest above called "cold forest". Stands may have a shade intolerant ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) overstory, and a shade tolerant Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) or white fir (Abies concolor) understory.

Lassen Volcanic Park
In Lassen Volcanic Park at the southern end of the Cascade Range, the upper montane forest is also known as red fir forest. It has less diversity than the mixed coniferous forest below. It occurs between , consists of dense stands of red fir (Abies magnifica), and has little understory and few animals. In the western areas that are more open, western white pine (Pinus monticola) can commonly be found. Lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) occurs in areas of thin soils. Summer temperatures are low in the almost total shade of the red fir.

Sierra Nevada range

On the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada range, upper montane vegetation can be found at elevations from  in the northern part of the range,  in the central part, and  in the southern part. On the eastern slopes, it is at higher elevations. Precipitation in areas of upper montane forest vegetation type is , mostly as snowfall. Summer high temperatures range from , and winter lows are below . Growing season is about four months because of long-lasting, deep snow. Overstory trees are typically cone shaped to shed the snow, with characteristic trees including lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta), Jeffrey pine (Pinus jeffreyi), western white pine (Pinus monticola) California red fir (Abies magnifica), and Sierra juniper (Juniperus grandis), and typical understory trees and shrubs such as huckleberry oak (Quercus vaccinifolia) and red heather (Phyllodoce breweri). The fire return interval is about 50-70 years.

The soils in this zone is mainly granitic, and are fast-draining and acidic. The soil is mostly covered in needle litter: the understory has little vegetation.

The 1932 United States presidential election in Virginia took place on November 8, 1932. Voters chose eleven representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.

Like all former Confederate States, early twentieth-century Virginia almost completely disenfranchised its black and poor white populations through the use of a cumulative poll tax and literacy tests. So severe was the disenfranchising effect of the new 1902 Constitution that it has been calculated that a third of the electorate during the first half of the twentieth century comprised state employees and officeholders.

This limited electorate meant Virginian politics was controlled by political machines based in Southside Virginia — the 1920 would see the building of the Byrd Organization which would control the state’s politics until the Voting Rights Act. Progressive “antiorganization” factions were rendered impotent by the inability of almost all their potential electorate to vote. Unlike the Deep South, historical fusion with the “Readjuster” Democrats, defection over free silver of substantial proportions of the Northeast-aligned white electorate of the Shenandoah Valley and Southwest Virginia, and an early move towards a “lily white” Jim Crow party meant that in general elections the Republicans retained around one-third of the small statewide electorate, with the majority of GOP support located in the western part of the state. However — like in Tennessee during the same era — the parties avoided competition in many areas by an agreed division over local offices.

1928 saw a substantial change, whereby a combination of anti-Catholicism in the Tidewater region and growing middle-class Republicanism in the cities saw Republican Herbert Hoover carry Virginia’s electoral votes and elect three Congressmen, including the local district of emerging machine leader Byrd. However, a combination of record drought and the economic catastrophe of the Great Depression meant that the trend towards the GOP would be short-lived. The Depression had extremely severe effects in the South, which had the highest unemployment rate in the nation, and many Southerners blamed this on the North and on Wall Street, rejecting Hoover’s claim that the Depression’s causes were exogenous.

For some time in 1932, Byrd was seen as a possible compromise candidate between Roosevelt and Al Smith for the Democratic presidential nomination; however, Southern opposition to Smith meant that Byrd ultimately wavered on seeking the nomination and accepted Roosevelt, as even delegates from such states as North Carolina rejected him for FDR.

Neither major party candidate campaigned in the state, and no polls were taken early in the campaign. when the state was finally polled in the middle of October, Roosevelt was clearly leading over Hoover by around five-to-two. A later poll had Roosevelt winning by seventy thousand votes, despite overall being much more favourable to the incumbent President than most other polls. As it turned out, the earlier poll was more accurate, with Roosevelt winning by over one hundred and fourteen thousand votes. Roosevelt ultimately won the national election with 57.41 percent of the vote.

Analysis
Although Roosevelt won Virginia by a margin that exceeded Woodrow Wilson’s two victories in the state and was the best Democratic performance since Andrew Jackson exactly a century previously, Hoover — despite losing every county except Floyd — was still able to maintain a small portion of the urban and Tidewater gains gains made by the Republicans during the 1920s. In some counties of the Virginia Peninsula and Middle Peninsula, the incumbent President bettered Calvin Coolidge’s 1924 performance even in a depression year.

, this is the last election in which Carroll County, Highland County, and Shenandoah County voted for a Democratic presidential candidate. This is the closest anyone has come to sweeping every Virginia county since 1820.

title: H. D. Couzens

text:
Henry De Clifford Couzens (1872 – April 20, 1914) was an American writer.

Biography

Couzens was born in Virginia. One of his grandfathers was Matthew K. Couzens, a New York State Engineer.

Couzens was living in New York in 1886, then relocated to Hawaii, where he lived for four years. During this time, he met Robert Louis Stevenson. Couzens then spent time in New York and Paris studying art, becoming a painter. He then returned to Hawaii and became Chief Deputy in the region's Internal Revenue Service. While in Hawaii, he became a friend of Jack London. Couzens moved to San Francisco in 1907.

Couzens first published a story in Outing magazine in 1894. He then began to contribute material to the slick magazine Sunset.  Couzens also began to have his stories of nautical life regularly appear in pulp magazines such as Adventure and Railroad Man's Magazine. His 1912 novella "Brethren of the Beach" was later expanded into a novel; the expanded version was published in Adventure, and also in Cassell's Magazine in the UK. Brethren of the Beach was later published as a hardback book.

Couzens was a member of the Adventurers' Club of New York. He died of tuberculosis in Phoenix, Arizona, in April 1914. He was survived by his wife, Virginia, and his three-year-old son, Robert Knight Couzens. Virginia Couzens (née Lucas) was a granddaughter of Robert Lucas, first governor of the Iowa Territory. The Couzens' marriage license was issued on April 14, 1909, in San Francisco when both were aged 38. Virginia Couzens died in January 1940.
