The dusky starfrontlet (Coeligena orina) is a hummingbird species in the subfamily Trochilinae.It is found only at high altitudes in the Cordillera Occidental of Colombia, and was first discovered on Páramo de Frontino. Its status was mysterious for a long time as it was only known from a few museum specimens; it was often held to be a mutant or color morph of some other species of Coeligena. When it was rediscovered in 2004, in what is now the Colibri del Sol Bird Reserve, its status as a distinct species was confirmed. Although this bird was listed as a species of Least Concern in the IUCN Red List for many years, it became evident that it was close to extinction, and its status was upgraded to Critically Endangered in the 2007 Red List issue.

Amina Rani Kilegefa’anu (fl. 1759) was a monarch, as Sultana regnant, of the Maldives from 1757 until 1759. She had acted as regent from 1753 until 1757. Amina was the daughter of Sultan Muhammad Imaduddin III, and the sister of Amina Kabafa’anu and Sultan Al-Haj Muhammed. In 1752, her father was abducted by Ali Raja of Cannanore and imprisoned at the Laccadives. Her paternal aunt, Sanfa Rendi Kabafa'anu, functioned as regent. In reality, however, Muleegey Dom Hassan Maniku had the real power. Amina succeeded her aunt as her father's nominal regent in 1753 and remained in this position until 1757. After her father's death in 1757, she succeeded him as monarch and became Sultana of the Maldives. She reigned until 1759.

Ronald Oldham Doig (10 July 1909 – 17 September 1932) was an Australian sportsman who played Australian rules football for South Fremantle in the West Australian Football League (WAFL) and first-class cricket with Western Australia. A member of the famous Doig family of Fremantle, Ron was a first cousin of George Doig. He made his debut for South Fremantle at the age of just 17 in 1927 and by 1930 was representing Western Australia at interstate football. He was captain of South Fremantle in 1931 and captain-coach in 1932. On the cricket field, Doig was a right-arm fast-medium bowler and right-handed batsman. He made three first-class cricket appearances for Western Australia, the first of which came in 1926/27 against South Australia. Doig did not bowl and instead played as a top order batsman, making scores of eight and five. He had to wait until 1931 to play again at first-class level, with his opportunity coming when South Africa toured. Batting at four, he failed to impress with the bat but took what would be the only wicket of his first-class career, bowling opener Herbie Taylor. When South Africa returned to Perth five months later, Doig made his only other first-class appearance but he did not affect the game. In the finals of the 1932 WANFL season, Doig, who was now captain-coach of South Fremantle, was injured during a match against East Perth. He died from his injuries later that night after suffering from convulsions. The coroner investigated the death and declared it was an accidental death, but was critical of the lack of control by the umpire, the roughness of the play and that the medical staff didn't have the right to order players from the field.

Phoebe (/ˈfiːbiː/; Greek: Ancient Greek: Φοίβη Phoíbē) is an irregular satellite of Saturn with a mean diameter of 213 km. It was discovered by William Henry Pickering on 17 March 1899 from photographic plates that had been taken starting on 16 August 1898 at the Boyden Observatory near Arequipa, Peru, by DeLisle Stewart. It was the first satellite to be discovered photographically. Phoebe was the first target encountered upon the arrival of the Cassini spacecraft in the Saturn system in 2004, and is thus unusually well-studied for an irregular satellite of its size. Cassini's trajectory to Saturn and time of arrival were specifically chosen to permit this flyby. After the encounter and its insertion into orbit, Cassini did not go much beyond the orbit of Iapetus. Phoebe is roughly spherical and has a differentiated interior. It was spherical and hot early in its history and was battered out of roundness by repeated impacts. It is thought to be a captured planetesimal from the Kuiper belt.

The Studva (Serbo-Croatian: Studva / Студва) is a river in eastern Croatia and northern Serbia, a 37 km-long right tributary to the Bosut river. It flows entirely within the Syrmia region of both Croatia and Serbia (Vojvodina). The Studva originates from the marshes of the western Syrmia in Croatia (Spačva sub-region), near the village of Gunja. It is a slow, meandering river and spills over into several marshes as it flows by the villages of Đurići, Drenovci, Soljani and Vrbanja. There is a canal from the Studva to the river Spačva. At the medieval ruins of the town of Zvezdangrad, the Studva becomes a border river between Croatia and Serbia (total length as a border or Serbian river is 18 km). At the village of Morović the Studva empties into the Bosut river. Just like the Bosut itself, the Studva is a satellite flow to the Sava river and uses the same, ancient (fossile) Sava's river bed. The river is navigable for 18 km for smaller vessels, drains an area of 355 km2 and belongs to the Black Sea drainage basin.

Vito John Valentinetti (born September 16, 1928 in West New York, New Jersey) is an American former professional baseball pitcher. His nine-year career included one full season and parts of four others in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Chicago White Sox (1954), Chicago Cubs (1956–57), Cleveland Indians (1957), Detroit Tigers (1958), and Washington Senators (1958–59). The right-hander was listed as 6 feet (1.83 m) tall and 195 pounds (88 kg). A graduate of Iona College, Valentinetti entered pro baseball in 1950 in the White Sox system, and missed two seasons (1952–53) while serving in the military during the Korean War. Valentinetti made only one appearance for the MLB White Sox, his debut on June 20, 1954, when he surrendered six runs on four hits and two bases on balls in one inning a 16–6 loss to the New York Yankees. Sent back to the minor leagues, he was acquired by the cross-town Cubs in the 1955 Rule 5 Draft. Valentinetti spent the entire 1956 campaign with Cubs, working in 42 games, 40 in relief, and posting a 6–4 win–loss record, a 3.78 earned run average and one save. But the following season, he began to bounce around: between 1957 and 1960, he was a member of four MLB teams, five minor league clubs and seven different organizations. Although he spent part of 1958 in the minors, he pitched in 38 MLB games that season for Detroit and Washington. He made ten starts for the Senators, and notched two complete games. But after only seven games in 1959, Valentinetti was sent back to the minors at the May cutdown, and he finished his active career in Triple-A in 1960. In 108 MLB games, including 15 starts, and 257 innings pitched, Valentinetti allowed 266 hits and 122 walks, with 96 strikeouts, three complete games and three saves.

The Ganges (/ˈɡændʒiːz/ GAN-jeez), also Ganga (Hindustani: [ˈɡəŋɡaː]) is a trans-boundary river of Asia which flows through the nations of India and Bangladesh. The 2,525 km (1,569 mi) river rises in the western Himalayas in the Indian state of Uttarakhand, and flows south and east through the Gangetic Plain of North India into Bangladesh, where it empties into the Bay of Bengal. It is the third largest river in the world by discharge. The Ganges is the most sacred river to Hindus. It is also a lifeline to millions of Indians who live along its course and depend on it for their daily needs. It is worshipped as the goddess Ganga in Hinduism. It has also been important historically, with many former provincial or imperial capitals (such as Pataliputra, Kannauj, Kara, Kashi, Patna, Hajipur, Munger, Bhagalpur, Murshidabad, Baharampur, Kampilya, and Kolkata) located on its banks. The Ganges was ranked as the fifth most polluted river of the world in 2007. Pollution threatens not only humans, but also more than 140 fish species, 90 amphibian species and the endangered Ganges river dolphin. The Ganga Action Plan, an environmental initiative to clean up the river, has been a major failure thus far, due to corruption, lack of technical expertise, poor environmental planning, and lack of support from religious authorities. The name \"Ganges\", ending in \"-es\", came to English via Latin from Ancient Greek sources, particularly from accounts of Alexander the Great's wars, which entered India.

The Siege of Le Quesnoy (28 August – 13 September 1793) saw a force made up of Habsburg Austrians and French Royalists led by François Sébastien Charles Joseph de Croix, Count of Clerfayt lay siege to a Republican French garrison commanded by François Goullus. After two and a half week siege, the French capitulated after suffering heavy losses. The War of the First Coalition operation was fought at Le Quesnoy, located near the border with Belgium about 27 kilometres (17 mi) west of Maubeuge. After the successful Sieges of Condé and Valenciennes, the Coalition divided their forces. While an Austrian army laid siege to Le Quesnoy, a British-led army marched west to the coast to operate against Dunkirk. On 11 September, two French columns marched to the relief of Le Quesnoy. The force from Cambrai on the west came to grief in the Battle of Avesnes-le-Sec while the force from Maubeuge was also repelled. The Le Quesnoy garrison laid down their arms on 13 September, but the Siege of Dunkirk was a total failure. Undeterred, the Austrian host next laid siege to Maubeuge, leading to the Battle of Wattignies in mid-October.

Warp 9, a science fiction themed electro-funk and hip hop trio, best known for their influential singles \"Nunk,\" \"Light Years Away,\" and \"Beat Wave,\" ranks among the most iconic groups of the electro hip hop era. Described as the \"perfect instance of hip hop's contemporary ramifications,\" Warp 9 was the brainchild of writer-producers Lotti Golden and Richard Scher. The duo wrote and recorded under the moniker Warp 9, a production project at the forefront of the electro movement. Warp 9 evolved from a studio concept into a band when Prism Records expressed interest in releasing Nunk as a single. Golden & Scher invited drummer Chuck Wansley and percussionist Boe Brown to perform the male vocals and rhymes. Later, a female vocalist was added to the group; Ada Dyre performed vocals and rhymes for Warp 9's second single, \"Light Years Away.\" The group released two albums, It's a Beat Wave (1983), (Island Records), a street themed testament exploring the topics of science fiction, hip hop and mixing, and Fade In, Fade Out (Motown), (1986), a soul R&B oriented montage. Warp 9's image is best described on the cover of their 12\" single \"Light Years Away,\" with Milton (Boe) Brown (Warp 9's lead singer), Chuck Wansley and session singer Ada Dyer in their trademark sci-fi space suits. The success of Warp 9's first single, \"Nunk,\" created a large following for the band in the New York metropolitan area resulting in a worldwide deal with Island Records, on its 4th & B'way Records label in the UK, and on Prism Records/Island Records in the U.S. Brian Chin of Billboard called \"Nunk\" a \"very skillful pastiche of a whole passel of recent street and fusion sounds, along with a simple rap.\" \"Nunk\" was a watershed for electro music, \"next to 'Planet Rock', heralding the arrival of electro hip hop music.\" The song's title \"Nunk,\" announced the group's musical direction—a fusion of funk and new wave, i.e., NUNK= N-ew wave + f-UNK. Fusing elements from electro-pop, rock, Latin, Afro-Cuban, and hip hop is integral to Warp 9 and to the identity of electro hip hop. On May 14, 2014, Rob Fitzpatrick of UK media outlet the Guardian, described producers Lotti Golden and Richard Scher as electro-futurists, \"working real emotion and intelligence into the world of experimental hip-hop and electro.\" In the piece, Fitzpatrick describes \"Light Years Away\"as a \"cornerstone of early 80's beatbox afrofuturism,\" characterizing the track as \"a brilliantly spare and sparse piece of electro hip-hop traversing inner and outer space, matching rolling congas with vocoder voices and the hiss and sizzle of cutting edge synth and drum machine technology.\" Warp 9's third single, \"Beat Wave\" (1983) is best described by David Toop: \"Their [Golden and Scher] commitment to a medium generally considered junk food is disarming.\" Fitzpatrick continues the analogy: \"The genius of Warp 9 is how they took what was considered a throwaway music and invested it with real emotion and intelligence.\"

You Were Never Duckier is an animated cartoon in the Merrie Melodies series from 1948. Starring Daffy Duck and Henery Hawk, this cartoon marked the start of a direction change for Daffy Duck, from a \"screwball\" character, to a greedy, self-centered one (though, according to commentary by Eric Goldberg on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection DVD [fifth volume], this cartoon showed Daffy as being both a greedy, self-centered character and a screwball one). This cartoon was also the next-to-last Henery Hawk cartoon to not be directed by Robert McKimson, and one of only four to be directed by creator Chuck Jones (after The Squawkin' Hawk, Flop Goes the Weasel, and followed by The Scarlet Pumpernickel). This marks the new era in Warner Bros. as it was the first to be in the post-1948 package. It was reissued with 1943-56 rules although. This and 4 other cartoons followed this exception and all of them except Daffy Dilly, also directed by Jones, have their original titles restored for a DVD release(with the exception of Kit for Cat, which for unknown reasons the original ending card was never restored for DVD). Also Daffy Dilly is the only one in Cinecolor. This is one of two post-1948 cartoons to have IN TECHNICOLOR, which means it is one of the early produced cartoons of 1948. The title is a play on the 1942 musical film You Were Never Lovelier.

Besides overseeing programming for the station, Orf is also the Voice of the Griffons for Missouri Western State University and began his duties for Western with the football team when he first started off in 1975. Orf began commentating for the men’s basketball team in 1989 and later on, the women’s basketball teams in 1992. Barry Birr is News Director at KFEQ. Besides his duties as News Director, Birr is also the host of The Hotline each weekday from 8 - 10am, covering topics of interest with guests and listener call-ins. Tom Brand came to KFEQ in 1996 to serve as Farm Director for the radio station after spending 2 years at KMA (AM) radio in Shenandoah, Iowa. Brand broadcasts market updates throughout the day and is host of the Mid-Day Farm Report each weekday along with the Saturday Morning Get-Together from 6 - 7am. National programs such as Sean Hannity, Dave Ramsey, Rush Limbaugh and Jim Bohannon are featured on weekdays. Weekend programming includes the syndicated AgriShop program with host Gene Millard, The Midwest Outdoors with Fred Ramsey and a local buy/sell/trade program called The Trading Post. Local church services from Huffman United Methodist Church are heard live on Sunday mornings. The rest of the weekend programming is mainly from the national Fox Sports Network. The station was owned by Eagle Communications, and features programming from ABC Radio. KFEQ also had a TV station for a time, KFEQ-TV, which signed on in 1953. Ownership separation in 1969 resulted in the station changing its calls to the current KQTV. KFEQ was founded by John L. Scroggn and Scroggin & Co. Bank and first broadcast in 1923 from Oak, Nebraska. He moved the station to St. Joseph in 1925 where it was noted for its live remote daily broadcasts three times each day from the St. Joseph Stockyards and four times each day from the St. Joseph Grain Exchange. During this time it moved initially from 833 to 1120 to 1300 to its present location at 680 in 1930. For several decades during the late 20th century, the station played country music and called itself \"Country Sunshine.\" It also broadcast St. Louis Cardinals baseball games when Kansas City had the Athletics. Due to the station's low dial location, transmitter power and the surrounding area's flat land, it decently covers most of Kansas City and Topeka during the day. One of the station's four towers was toppled in a farming accident on June 16, 2009. All four towers were rebuilt and placed into service in 2010.

Alexei Leonidovich Kudrin (Russian: Алексе́й Леони́дович Ку́дрин; IPA: [ɐlʲɪˈksʲej lʲɪɐˈnʲidəvʲɪtɕ ˈkudrʲɪn]; born 12 October 1960) is a Russian political figure who served in the government of Russia as Minister of Finance from 18 May 2000 to 26 September 2011. After graduating with degrees in finance and economics, Kudrin worked in the administration of Saint Petersburg's liberal Mayor Anatoly Sobchak. In 1996 he started working in the Presidential Administration of Boris Yeltsin. He was appointed as Finance Minister on 28 May 2000 and held the post for 11 years, making him the longest-serving Finance Minister in post-Soviet Russia. In addition, he was Deputy Prime Minister in 2000–2004 and again beginning in 2007. As Finance Minister, Kudrin was widely credited with prudent fiscal management, commitment to tax and budget reform and championing the free market. Under Kudrin, Russia's government paid most of the substantial foreign debt it had accumulated in the 1990s, leaving the country with one of the lowest foreign debts among major economies. Much of the revenue from exports was accumulated at the Stabilization Fund which helped Russia to come out of the 2008–2009 global financial crisis in a much better state than many experts expected. During his career, Kudrin has won several awards, including the \"Finance Minister of the Year 2010\" prize from Euromoney magazine. He was asked to resign from his position on 26 September 2011 by President Dmitry Medvedev. Currently, he is the Dean of the Faculty of Liberal Arts and Sciences in St. Petersburg State University. As of 2016, he is co-chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Mariinsky Theatre[25], and the chairman of the Board of Trustees of the foundation of the European University at St. Petersburg.[26]

Sir William Edward Rouse Boughton (14 September 1788 – 22 May 1856) was a baronet and a member of the British House of Commons representing Evesham. He was the only son of Sir Charles Rouse Boughton and his wife Catherine Pearce Hall. He is said to have attended Westminster School from 1803 to 1805, but the records are not clear. He then matriculated at Christ Church, Oxford and for several years he enjoyed a European tour until 1813. He was invited in 1818 to stand as member of Parliament for Evesham where his father had been member, but was ousted on petition by Sir Charles Cockerell. His political leanings were far from clear and in his address of thanks, he described himself as 'unbiased by any political party of connexion'. He regained his seat in 1820 and he remained MP for Evesham until 1825. His opposition leanings became apparent once in office. He inherited the title from his father in 1821 William married Charlotte Knight (1800–1842). the daughter of Thomas Knight by his wife formerly Miss Fenton, known as the celebrated Grecian on 24 March 1824.

4581 Asclepius (/əˈskliːpiəs/ ə-SKLEE-pee-əs) is a small asteroid of the Apollo group that makes close orbital passes with Earth. Discovered in 1989 by American astronomers Henry E. Holt (1929-) and Norman G. Thomas (1930-), Asclepius is named after the Greek demigod of medicine and healing. Asclepius passed by Earth on March 22, 1989, at a distance of 0.00457 AU (684,000 km; 425,000 mi). Although this exceeds the Moon's orbital radius, the close pass received attention at that time, especially since the asteroid passed through the exact position of Earth only six hours earlier. \"On the cosmic scale of things, that was a close call,\" said Dr. Henry Holt. Geophysicists estimate that collision with Asclepius would release energy comparable to the explosion of a 600 megaton atomic bomb. The asteroid was discovered March 31, 1989, nine days after its closest approach to the Earth. Subsequent discoveries revealed that a whole class of such objects exists. Close approaches by objects the size of Asclepius pass by every two or three years, undetected until the start of computerized near-Earth object searches. On 24 March 2051, the asteroid will pass 0.0123 AU (1,840,000 km; 1,140,000 mi) from the Earth. It will be the eighth pass of less than 30 Gm in this century. JPL shows that the uncertainty region of the asteroid will cause it to mostly likely pass from 0.02 AU to 0.17 AU from the Earth in 2135.

The Kampuchean People's Representative Assembly(Khmer: សភាតំណាងប្រជាជនកម្ពុជា) was the official name of the unicameral legislature of Cambodia during the Democratic Kampuchea period. It was established as the official legislature of Kampuchea on January 5, 1976, consisting of 250 members. Of the seats, 150 were, due to the constitution, to be reserved for representatives of the peasants, 50 for the \"laborers and other working people\" and 50 for the Kampuchean Revolutionary Army. All representatives was to be elected simultaneously by secret ballot for five year terms, with the first and only elections taking place on March 20, 1976. The assembly held its first and only plenary session on April 11 to 13, appointing the State Presidium, consisting of a president, a first vice president, and a second vice president, as well elected the \"administration\", the official government of Democratic Kampuchea, and the Standing Committee, due to represent the assembly when not gathered. The members of the KPRA were never elected; the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Kampuchea (CPK) appointed the chairman and other high officials both to it and to the State Praesidium. Plans for elections of members were discussed, but the 250 members of the KPRA were in fact appointed by the upper echelon of the CPK. The assembly was effectively abolished when the Vietnamese captured Phnom Penh on January 7, 1979, establishing the People's Republic of Kampuchea.

The Men's team sprint cross-country skiing competition at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy, was held on 14 February, at Pragelato. This was the first time the team sprint was contested in the Winter Olympics. Each race featured teams of two, with each skier completing 3 laps of a 1325-metre course. Norway, with Tore Ruud Hofstad and Tor Arne Hetland, had won the competition at the 2005 Nordic skiing World Championship, the only time it had been skied in the World Championship prior to the Turin games, but that was in free technique. The most recent team sprint event in classic technique had been in Canmore, Canada, on 18 December 2004. Jens Arne Svartedal and Eldar Rønning won that race for Norway's first team. However, despite this good Norwegian record, it was the Sweden's Thobias Fredriksson and Björn Lind who pipped Norway to the title.

Skanderbeg's rebellion was an almost 25-years long anti-Ottoman rebellion led by renegade Ottoman sanjakbey Skanderbeg on the territory which belonged to the Ottoman sanjaks of Albania, Dibra and Ohrid (modern-day Albania and Macedonia). This rebellion was result of initial Christian victories in the Crusade of Varna in 1443. After Ottoman defeat in the Battle of Niš Skanderbeg, then sanjakbey of the Sanjak of Debar, mistakenly believed that Christians will succeed to push Ottomans out of Europe. Like many other regional Ottoman officials, he deserted Ottoman army to rise rebellion in his sanjak of Dibra and surrounding region. Initially, his plan was successful and soon large parts of the Sanjak of Dibra and north-east parts of the Sanjak of Albania were captured by the rebels who also fought against regular Ottoman forces in the Sanjak of Ohrid. Skanderbeg's rebellion was not however a general Albanian uprising; many Albanians did not join it and some even fought against it for the Sultan, nor where his forces exclusively drawn from Albanians. Rather, his revolt represents a reaction by certain sections of local society and feudal lords against the loss of privilege and the exactions of the Ottoman government which they resented. Skanderbeg's rebellion instead was a northern Albanian uprising against a foreign occupation and his forces were also joined by people of other ethnicities. In addition the rebels fought against members of their own ethnic groups because the Ottoman forces, both commanders and soldiers, were also composed of local people (Albanians, Slavs, Vlachs, Greeks and Turkish timar holders). Skanderbeg managed to capture Krujë using a forged letter of sultan and, according to some sources, impaled captured Ottoman officials who refused to be baptized into Christianity. On 2 March 1444 the regional Albanian and Serbian chieftains united against the Ottoman Empire and established an alliance (League of Lezhë) which was dissolved by 1450. Because of the frequent conflicts between rival families in Albania during Skanderbeg's rebellion, particularly between Skanderbeg and Leke Dukagjini, this period was more of an Albanian civil war.

Arthur William Bassett Sclater (27 July 1859 – 16 June 1882) was an Irish-born English cricketer. Sclater was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm medium pace. He was born at Auburn, County Cavan, and was educated at Tunbridge Wells, Kent, and the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester. Described as a \"young man of grand physique\" who stood at \"6 feet 5 inches without boots, and proportionately well made\", Sclater made his first-class debut for Sussex against Surrey in 1879 at the County Ground, Hove. He made eight further first-class appearances for the county, all in 1880, the last of which came against Hampshire at the Antelope Ground, Southampton. In his nine matches, he scored 107 runs at an average of 11.88, with a high score of 18 not out. With the ball, he took a 35 wickets at a bowling average of 19.62, with best figures of 7/45. This was his only five-wicket haul and came against Surrey at The Oval in 1880, in a match in which he finished with match figures of 10/92. He later emigrated to New Zealand aboard the SS Manapouri, where he moved in with his cousin, a Mr. E. S. Vernon, who owned a large estate along the Titirau River near Fortrose. On 16 June 1882, Sclater went to shoot ducks on the river, in the company of Miss Josephine Rich, who also lived on the estate of Mr. Vernon. Around noon she departed to make her way back to the house, with Sclater telling her he would follow her home later. The banks of the river were covered in thick undergrowth, and while making his way through it, his breech-loaded gun caught a twig, causing the gun to discharge. The resulting shot hit him in the forehead toward his left eye, the result of which killed him. His body was found the next day in the river by Mr. W. G. Rich and his son. A jury later returned a verdict of accidental death.

The 1937 Masters Tournament was the fourth Masters Tournament, held April 1–4 at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia. Opening with a six-under 66, Byron Nelson led after the first and second rounds, but a 75 on Saturday dropped him four strokes back, in a tie for third. On the final nine on Sunday, he gained six strokes on third round leader Ralph Guldahl over two holes and won the tournament by two strokes. Compared to Guldahl's 5–6 (double bogey, bogey), Nelson played the 12th and 13th holes 2–3 (birdie, eagle), respectively. The Nelson Bridge, over Rae's Creek departing the 13th tee, was dedicated in 1958 to commemorate the feat. At age 25, this was the first of Nelson's five major titles; he won the Masters again in 1942, which was not held again until 1946. Guldahl rebounded and won three majors over the next two years: the U.S. Open in 1937 and 1938 and the Masters in 1939. Sam Snead made his Masters debut and finished 18th. The purse was $5,000 with a winner's share of $1,500.

Brunswick is a ghost town in Warren County, Mississippi. Brunswick Landing, north of the community, was located directly on the Mississippi River. Brunswick originated as a postal village. A steamship delivering mail in 1853 left Memphis, Tennessee, each evening at 8 pm, and traveled south stopping at Grayson, AR, Blues' Point, AR, Commerce, MS, Bledsoe's Landing, AR, Austin, MS, Wayne, AR, Sterling, AR, Helena, AR, Delta, MS, Friars Point, MS, Barneys, AR, Island No. 66, Laconia, AR, Victoria, MS — and arrived at Napoleon, AR at 7 pm the next evening. The Buena Vista Plantation was located between Brunswick and Eagle Lake to the south. In 1860, the plantation's owner had a levee built using Irish laborers, his own slaves too busy planting cotton. In 1900, Brunswick had churches, a school, stores, cotton gins, and a population of 100. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began construction in 1934 of the Newman Cutoff, which created Chotard Lake and Albemarle Lake, both oxbow lakes, and removed Brunswick from the contiguous Mississippi River. Today, the Mississippi Levee lies between Brunswick, now agricultural land, and Brunswick Landing, of which nothing remains.

The National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame was founded in 1950 in Saratoga Springs, New York, to honor the achievements of American thoroughbred race horses, jockeys, and trainers. In 1955, the museum moved to its current location on Union Avenue near Saratoga race course, at which time inductions into the hall of fame began. Each spring, following the tabulation of the final votes, the announcement of new inductees is made, usually during Kentucky Derby Week in early May. The actual inductions are held in mid-August during the Saratoga race meeting. The Hall of Fame's nominating committee selects eight to ten candidates from among the four Contemporary categories (male horse, female horse, jockey and trainer) to be presented to the voters. Changes in voting procedures that commenced with the 2010 candidates allow the voters to choose multiple candidates from a single Contemporary category, instead of a single candidate from each of the four Contemporary categories. For example, in 2016, two female horses (Rachel Alexandra and Zenyatta) were inducted at the same time. The museum also houses a large collection of art, artifacts, and memorabilia that document the history of horse racing from the eighteenth century to the present.

The Military Hospital of the Ministry of Defense of Georgia (Georgian: საქართველოს თავდაცვის სამინისტროს სამხედრო ჰოსპიტალი, sak'art'velos samkhedro hospitali), also known as the Gori Military Hospital (გორის სამხედრო ჰოსპიტალი, goris samkhedro hospitali), is a medical facility operated by the Ministry of Defense of Georgia and located in the city of Gori. In its current form, the center was established on 15 August 2006, succeeding the Soviet-era military hospital based in Georgia's capital of Tbilisi. The hospital is a 176-bed facility, providing general medical and surgical care as well as a 24-hour emergency service for military personnel as well as for civilians. About 25% of the patients being treated at the hospital at any one time are civilians. It also functions as a teaching hospital for the Tbilisi State Medical University. The ability of the hospital to respond to mass casualty events was put to test during the August 2008 war with Russia. Beyond the Georgian military personnel, most of the civilians injured in or around Gori were initially taken to the Gori hospital for treatment. On 13 August 2008, at around 2:00 a.m. local time, a rocket fired from a Russian military helicopter hit a group of medical staff members in the hospital yard, killing an emergency room physician, Giorgi Abramishvili, who had spent the previous four days operating on people wounded during the hostilities. The Human Rights Watch concluded that attack on the hospital, which was \"clearly marked with a red cross\", was a \"serious violation of international humanitarian law\". The hospital was named after Abramishvili in August 2013.

Alfred Walton Hinds (July 25, 1874 – December 25, 1957) was a United States Navy captain who served as the 17th Naval Governor of Guam. His early naval service included serving as Assistant Engineer aboard the USS Texas, the United States Navy's first battleship, where he was reprimanded for an accident aboard in 1896. In 1911, Hinds joined the staff of the United States Naval Academy, heading the Department of Marine Engineering and Naval Construction, writing a textbook on the subject while there. From September 23, 1913, to March 28, 1914, Hinds served as acting Governor of Guam. Having already helped form the policies of the previous governor, Hinds continued much of the practices of the earlier administration. He successfully drew new import and export businesses to the island, though he failed in his attempts to further development of Guam as a key naval outpost. Following his governorship, Hinds commanded various ships and eventually became marine superintendent of the Panama Canal in 1924, serving in that office until early 1925.
