Route 20 is a highway in central Missouri. Its eastern terminus is at English Avenue in Marshall; its western terminus is at Route 13 in Higginsville. Route 20 was one of the original 1922 highways. Its eastern terminus was originally at Huntsville at Route 10 (now U.S. Route 24). Its western terminus was originally in Kansas City at Route 1. The route overall became part of U.S. Route 65 and U.S. Route 24 and Route 20 was rerouted south to its current location. This current location had been planned as Route 96 (Odessa to Marshall) in 1922, but was soon dropped from the state highway system until it became part of Route 20 in the early 1930s. Route 20 connects the towns of Higginsville, Corder, Alma, Blackburn and Marshall.

95179 Berkó, provisional designation 2002 BO, is an asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 2 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 16 January 2002, by Hungarian astronomers Krisztián Sárneczky and Zsuzsanna Heiner at the Konkoly Observatory's Piszkéstető Station northeast of Budapest, Hungary. The asteroid has a well-observed orbit with the lowest possible uncertainty of 0. It orbits the Sun at a distance of 1.9–2.9 AU once every 3 years and 9 months (1,353 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.20 and an inclination of 2° with respect to the plane of the ecliptic. The first observation was made at Lincoln Laboratory's Experimental Test Site in 2000, extending the body's observation arc by 2 years prior to its discovery. As of 2016, the asteroid's effective size, its composition and albedo, as well as its rotation period remain unknown. Based on an absolute magnitude of 16.5, the asteroid is calculated to measure between 1 and 3 kilometers in diameter, assuming an albedo in the range of 0.05 to 0.25. Since asteroids in the inner main-belt are often of a silicaceous rather than of a carbonaceous composition, with higher albedos, typically around 0.20, the asteroid's diameter might be on the lower end of NASA's published conversion table, as the higher the body's reflectivity (albedo), the smaller its diameter, for a given absolute magnitude (brightness). The minor planet is named in honor of Hungarian amateur astronomer Ernő Berkó (b. 1955), independent discoverer of the supernova 1999by and an observer of deep-sky objects and double stars. As of 2006, he has contributed to the WDS catalog with the discovery of more than 160 double stars. Naming citation was published on 6 January 2007 (M.P.C. 58597).

The Queens–Midtown Tunnel (sometimes simply known as the Midtown Tunnel) is a highway, tunnel and toll road in New York City. It crosses under the East River and connects the Borough of Queens (at the Long Island City terminus of the Long Island Expressway) on Long Island, with the borough of Manhattan (between the major crosstown thoroughfares of East 34th Street and East 42nd Street in the Midtown Manhattan area). Designed by Ole Singstad, it was opened to traffic on November 15, 1940. The tunnel consists of twin tubes carrying four traffic lanes, and is 6,414 feet (1,955 m) long. It once carried New York State Route 24. The tunnel is owned by New York City and operated by MTA Bridges and Tunnels, an affiliate agency of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. When planning began, a bridge was strongly supported by some backers, including Robert Moses, who balked at the increased cost of a tunnel and the fact that it would not be completed in time for the 1939 World's Fair. Manhattan borough president Samuel Levy in particular was a strong backer of a six-lane bridge plan. Commissioner William Friedman of the New York City Tunnel Authority rejected the alternative outright. From 1981 to 2011, the tunnel was closed to traffic for a few hours one night each spring to allow for the annual Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus Animal Walk. Several nights before the circus opened at Madison Square Garden, the elephants marched into Manhattan and down 34th Street to the arena. While this event was a much anticipated annual tradition for some, in recent years it attracted organizations protesting the treatment of the circus animals. When the circus moved to the Barclays Center in 2012, the elephant walk through the tunnel ceased. In the 1997 feature film Men in Black, Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith star in a scene in which their Ford LTD car rides upside down on the ceiling of the tunnel.

Peter Alexander Walsh AO (11 March 1935 – 10 April 2015) was an Australian senator and Labor politician from 1974 to 1993. Walsh grew up in Doodlakine, Western Australia, where he was a wheat and sheep farmer. He was elected to the Australian Senate in 1974, and served as Minister for Resources and Energy from 1983 to 1984 and Finance Minister from 1984 to 1990. He was noted for his pro-free market views. In his 1995 memoirs, Confessions of a Failed Finance Minister, Walsh was critical of his colleagues and of political processes in general for failing to curb what he saw as wasteful government expenditure, and unnecessary government intervention. Also in his book he corrected errors made in Whatever It Takes, the book written by former ministerial colleague and fellow Senator Graham Richardson. After leaving politics, Walsh was a columnist for the Australian Financial Review and was particularly critical of environmentalism. He was one of the founders of the Lavoisier Group which opposes the Kyoto protocol on global warming. Walsh also expressed criticism over the Rudd government's National Broadband Network scheme. Walsh died at a hospital in Perth after a short illness on 10 April 2015. In his tribute to him, sitting Liberal Finance Minister and another WA Senator Mathias Cormann described his predecessor as \"a real pillar of the Hawke Government\".

The African crimson-winged finch (Rhodopechys alienus), is a pale-colored thickset finch with a heavy, dull yellowish bill. It is found in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. It was formerly considered a subspecies of the Eurasian crimson-winged finch. It has an average length of 13 cm. and a wingspan of ca. 32 cm. It is light brown overall, with a whitish mid-belly, a black cap and a pinkish pattern on the wings and tail. The female is slightly duller than the male. This species lives on rocky mountainsides, often at high elevation. It can be found in barren landscapes with little vegetation, and sometimes nests in rock crevices. It feeds on seeds, and during the winter descends in flocks to agricultural fields to find food. The female lays and incubates 4 or 5 blue, lightly speckled eggs.

1631 Kopff, provisional designation 1936 UC, is a stony asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, about 9 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered by Finnish astronomer Yrjö Väisälä at Turku Observatory on 11 October 1936 (also see discovery circumstances below). The asteroid is a member of the Flora family, a large group of stony S-type asteroids in the inner main-belt. It orbits the Sun at a distance of 1.8–2.7 AU once every 3 years and 4 months (1,221 days). Its orbit shows an eccentricity of 0.21 and is tilted by 7 degrees to the plane of the ecliptic. It has a rotation period of 6.7 hours and an albedo of 0.250, according to the surveys carried out by IRAS, Akari, and WISE/NEOWISE. The minor planet was named after German astronomer August Kopff (1882–1960). He was first an assistant to Max Wolf prolific discoverer of minor planets himself. In 1924 he became Director of the Astronomisches Rechen-Institut in Berlin, and after the western section moved to Heidelberg he also became director of Heidelberg-Königstuhl Observatory. He was responsible for constructing the third Catalogue of Fundamental Stars (FK3) and initiated work on the fourth (FK4). The lunar carter Kopff is also named in his honour.

Floyd Clifford \"Bill\" Bevens (October 21, 1916 – October 26, 1991) was a right-handed Major League Baseball pitcher. He stood 6 ft 3 in (1.91 m) and weighed 210 lb (95 kg). He signed with the New York Yankees at 20 in 1937, and spent seven seasons in their minor league system, throwing two no-hitters for the Wenatchee Chiefs before finally making his major league debut with the Yankees on May 12, 1944 at the age of 27. In his third minor league season, he pitched his first no-hitter on September 21, 1939, against the Tacoma Tigers, winning 8-0 with the only opposing baserunner reaching on an error, giving his Wenatchee Chiefs their first playoff win after losing the first three games of the series to Tacoma. He pitched four years for the Yanks when they finally brought him up to the majors, amassing a career record of 40–36 with a 3.08 ERA. His best year was 1946, when he went 16–13 and 2.23. Although in the regular 1947 season, his last year in the majors, he won only seven and lost 13, in the World Series that year he held the Brooklyn Dodgers to one hit in 8 2/3 innings in one of the most memorable games in baseball history (see \"The Cookie Game\"). For 8 2⁄3 innings in Game 4 of the 1947 World Series Bevens had held the Dodgers hitless despite giving up a Series record ten walks. The Yankees were nursing a 2–1 lead. With one out to go for the first no-hitter in Series history, he walked right fielder Carl Furillo and then (intentionally) pinch-hitter Pete Reiser. Dodger manager Burt Shotton sent in Al Gionfriddo to pinch-run for Furillo and Eddie Miksis for the injury-slowed Reiser, and aging Cookie Lavagetto to pinch-hit for leadoff man Eddie Stanky. With two outs and two on in the bottom of the ninth, Lavagetto swung and missed for strike one but then on Bevens' second (and last) pitch lined a double off the right field wall scoring both runners and winning the game for the Dodgers 3-2 with their only hit. What became known as \"the Cookie game\" was played on October 3, 1947 and evened the Series at 2–2. On October 6, Bevens returned to the mound for 2 2/3 innings of scoreless relief in the deciding Game 7, winning the world championship for the Yanks. It was the last major league game for the thirty-year-old Bevens. \"I do not use anything odd or unorthodox. I have a sinker, but it is a natural delivery. Fast ball, curve, change, and change in speeds. That is my repertoire.\" – Bill Bevens in Baseball Magazine (June 1947, Daniel M. Daniel) He eventually landed another major league job with the Cincinnati Reds in 1952, but was sold to the Triple-A Pacific Coast League San Francisco Seals before he could see any action for the Reds.

This Is Where We Came In is a 1990 children's play by British playwright Alan Ayckbourn. It is about three storytellers, Great Aunt Repetitus, Uncle Erraticus, Uncle Oblivious, who trap six players in twisted re-interpretations of fairy tales. It was originally presented as a two-parter shown on Saturday mornings, where the plays could be seen out of order, but the two parts were put together and made into a single event in Christmas 1991. This Is Where We Came In is a chronicle of a group of misfits who have fallen victim to their story-teller overloard's fierce control.

\"Gorilla\" is a song recorded by American recording artist Bruno Mars for his 2012 studio album Unorthodox Jukebox. The song was written by Mars, Philip Lawrence and Ari Levine, while production was handled by the former along with Emile Haynie, Jeff Bhasker and Mark Ronson, who had all previously co-produced the single \"Locked Out of Heaven\" for the same album. Atlantic Records serviced the track to Contemporary hit radio in the United States on September 10, 2013, as the fourth single from Unorthodox Jukebox. The official remix (G-Mix) of the song features American singers Pharrell Williams and R. Kelly, and was released in Canada and US on November 12. \"Gorilla\" is a midtempo rock and soft rock song with a power pop hook, epic guitars and a synth/percussion combination resembling a Phil Collins-esque. Its style has drawn comparisons towards Prince's 1984 single \"Purple Rain\". The single received mixed to positive reviews from critics, who praised its early 1980s arena rock tendencies, but was criticized for its explicit lyrical content, which addresses the subject of making love like wild animals. The song charted moderately worldwide; it reached number 22 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 62 on the UK Singles Chart, being unable to achieve the same success of the previous singles. It was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), denoting digital downloads of over half a million copies in the US. Mars only performed \"Gorilla\" live at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards, however the song was included on the set list of the 2013 Moonshine Jungle Tour as the final act, usually performed as an encore.

Synchronisms is a series of twelve musical compositions for solo or ensemble live instruments and pre-recorded tape composed by Mario Davidovsky at the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center, the first dating from 1963. Davidovsky explains that, \"One of the central ideas of these pieces is the search to find ways of embedding both the acoustic and the electronic into a single, coherent musical and aesthetic space.\" The series, \"is characterized by the interaction of virtuoso musicians with a counterpoint of electronically generated sounds covering a broad tonal and timbral spectrum.\" Davidovsky describes the goals of his series: \"In those works, I try to keep, on the one hand, as much as possible of what is characteristic of the electronic instrument [medium], and, on the other, what is characteristic of the live performer. At the same time, each extends the other.\" In the series Davidovsky attempts, \"exact coordination only in short passages of intricate counterpoint; elsewhere, in more extended passages in which one component clearly accompanied the other, 'an element of chance [\"leeway in the synchronization\"] is introduced'\". The works are as follows: 1. \n* Flute (1963) 2. \n* Flute, clarinet, violin, cello (1963) 3. \n* Cello (1964) 4. \n* Chorus (1967) 5. \n* Percussion quintet (1969) 6. \n* 7. \n* Orchestra (1973) 8. \n* Wind quintet (1974) 9. \n* Violin (1988) 10. \n* Guitar (1992) 11. \n* Bass (2005) 12. \n* Clarinet (2006)

Libertador General San Martín is a town in Jujuy Province, Argentina, and capital of the Ledesma Department, located on the National Route Nº34. The town was founded under the name of Pueblo Nuevo Ledesma in 1899, on an area donated by the owners of the Ledesma sugar refinery. Two years later, the outline and later subdivision of the eight blocks surrounding the main square was made. In 1906 the railroad arrived, and the station was built half way from the town to the industrial centre. The area was enjoyed an economic expansion strengthened by the first Lebanese and Syrian immigration. In 1950 the town was renamed after the Libertador General San Martín. Ledesma S.A.A.I. remains the town's largest employer. The firm maintains sugarcane plantations; fruit orchards, packaging and concentrate facilities; sugar, cellulose, and paper mills; and alcohol fuel facilities. Located on the banks of the San Francisco River, and only 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) from the entrance to the Calilegua National Park, tourism in the area has recently started to grow.

The Tahoma Glacier is a long glacier mostly on the western flank of Mount Rainier in Washington. It covers 1.2 square miles (3.1 km2) and contains 4.3 billion cubic feet (120×106 m3) of ice. The glacier starts out near the summit of the volcano at over 14,200 feet (4,300 m). As the glacier flows west-southwest out of the summit area, it cascades down a steep rocky face as an icefall from 13,200 feet (4,000 m) to 11,000 feet (3,400 m), where the glacier is connected to the South Mowich Glacier to the north in the Sunset Amphitheater. As the glacier drops below 10,000 feet (3,000 m), it broadens and joins the smaller South Tahoma Glacier. After the broad expanse of ice at over 8,000 feet (2,400 m), the Tahoma Glacier narrows as it descends around the rocky 7,690-foot (2,344 m) Glacier Island, a sub-peak of Rainier once fully encircled by both the South Tahoma and Tahoma Glaciers. Leaving the bottleneck in the glacier, the glacier splits; the larger, longer northern arm continues flowing west-southwest and terminates at around 5,500 feet (1,700 m). The southern arm flows south towards the arm of the South Tahoma Glacier, but this arm terminates before it rejoins the South Tahoma at 5,700 ft (1,700 m). Meltwater from the glacier is the source of the South Puyallup River and Tahoma Creek, a tributary of the Nisqually River.

Reynier de Klerck (or Reinier de Klerck) (1710–1780) was Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies from 1778 until 1780. De Klerk's date of birth is not known but he was baptised on 19 November 1710 in Middelburg. He worked as midshipman aboard the Kamer van Zeeland, a warship, whose duty was to protect the routes of homeward bound cargo ships. He made two trips to India as a sailor in the service of the Dutch East India Company. In December 1730, he left permanently for India aboard the t Vliegend Hert. Between 1735 and 1737 he was the pilot aboard a small ship which traded to-and-fro Batavia and Padang. In 1737 he became an accountant (boekhouder) with the Dutch East India Company, and so began for him a life on land. In 1738, he was onderkoopman and resident (underbuyer/undermerchant and resident) in Lampung. In 1741 he was a secretary with the army on Java. In 1742 he became Chief in Surabaya and in 1744 koopmand en eerste administrateur (buyer/merchant and first administrator) in Semarang. In 1747, he was named opperkoopmand en tweede bestuurder (upperbuyer/uppermerchant and second in charge) of Java's Northeast Coast. In 1748 he became Governor and Director of Banda. He moved to Batavia/Jakarta in 1754 when he was made president of the College van Boedelmeesteren der Chinesche en andere onchristelijke sterfhuizen (which looked after Chinese and other non-Christian burial facilities) for Batavia. In October 1754, Reynier de Klerck was installed as Counsellor-extraordinary of the Indies, and in 1762 was appointed as Counsellor in the Dutch Council of the Indies. In 1775 he became acting Director-General, being named actual Director-General in 1776. On 4 October 1777, the day after the death of Governor-General Jeremias van Riemsdijk, he was unanimously chosen as Governor-General. He took up the official functions of the post one year later, 9 October 1778. Reynier de Klerck was a hardworking governor. He was a powerful reformer, who however could not realise all his ideas. He was very committed to bringing Dutch culture to the Indies. Thus he wanted to replace Portugueseand Malay with Dutch in the education system. His endeavours failed however because the local population did not want this. During his term of office, few important happenings occurred. A conflict in the Celebes was brought to an end by occupying Gowa, while the Sultan of Bantam Landak and Batjan gave way to the Dutch East India Company. To preserve the spice monopoly, the Princes of Tidore and Batjan were deposed and sent into exile to Batavia. They were replaced by puppets of the Company. The term of office of van Reynier de Klerck did not last long, for he died on 1 September 1780 in Molenvliet near Batavia. He was followed as governor by Willem Arnold Alting. Reynier de Klerck's house in old Batavia can still be seen, as the National Archives Museum on Jalan Gajah Mada, Jakarta.

Born in Greenwood, South Carolina, first attended Carolina Military Institute in Charlotte where he was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity before attending the United States Military Academy at West Point and would have graduated in 1882 but he did not because he was deficient in experimental philosophy after three years.

He reached the rank of captain in the regular army, before being discharged in 1899. He was elected governor in 1908, taking the oath of office on January 5, 1909.
