Greenwich Time is a daily newspaper based in Greenwich, Connecticut, United States. The paper shares an editor and publisher with The Advocate of nearby Stamford, Connecticut. Both papers are owned and operated by the Hearst Corporation. In 1977, Southern Connecticut Newspapers, which owned the Time and the Stamford Advocate, was acquired by Times Mirror. Times Mirror was acquired by Tribune in 2000. In March 2007, Tribune announced it would sell the two papers to Gannett for US$73 million, but the deal fell through when Gannett refused to honor 35 Advocate newsroom workers' union contract with Local 2110 of United Auto Workers. The Time and its sister paper, The Advocate, were sold to Hearst for US$62.4 million by Tribune Company in a deal that closed November 1, 2007. The sale did not include Tribune-owned land in Stamford and Greenwich, including the papers' printing presses. Hearst prints both The Advocate and the Time at the Connecticut Post plant in Bridgeport. Following the Tribune sale, the Post was owned by MediaNews, which managed The Advocate and Greenwich Time for Hearst until Hearst bought out MediaNews in 2008. On August 8, 2008 the Hearst Corporation acquired the Connecticut Post (Bridgeport, Conn.) and www.ConnPost.com, including seven non-daily newspapers, from MediaNews Group, Inc. and assumed management control of three additional daily newspapers in Fairfield County, Conn., including The Advocate (Stamford), Greenwich Time (Greenwich), and The News-Times (Danbury), which had been managed for Hearst by MediaNews under a management agreement that began in April 2007.

The race was run over 89 laps of the circuit, and was won by British driver Jim Clark, in his Lotus 21. There were no great differences between the local rules to which this race was run and the international Formula One rules, but for example sports car bodies were permitted, such as the Porsche special driven by Jennings. Clark led the race from start to finish, with only Stirling Moss, who had started from the back of the grid, able to stay on the same lap by the end. The local South African entrants were outclassed, with the first of them finishing three laps down on Clark.

Arnold H. Beyeler (born February 13, 1964) is an American professional baseball manager and former Major League coach. In 2016 he will manage the New Orleans Zephyrs of the Pacific Coast League, the Triple-A affiliate of the Miami Marlins. Previously, he spent three seasons (2013–15) as first-base and outfield coach of the Boston Red Sox, winning a 2013 World Series ring. During that season, Beyeler helped veteran centerfielder Shane Victorino convert to right field, a notoriously difficult position at Boston's home stadium, Fenway Park. When Victorino won a 2013 Gold Glove for defensive excellence, he invited Beyeler to the off-season awards ceremony in New York as his guest. During 2014–15, Beyeler converted infielders Mookie Betts and Brock Holt into outfielders, with Betts becoming the Red Sox' regular centerfielder in 2015. But veteran shortstop Hanley Ramírez' conversion to leftfielder was a disaster in 2015, and Boston released Beyeler on October 4, 2015. In 2016, Beveler will spend his 13th season as a manager, his first in the Marlins' system. Before being appointed to Boston's coaching staff in November 2012, he was the pilot of the Triple-A Pawtucket Red Sox of the International League, the Red Sox' top-level minor league affiliate, from 2011–12. Beyeler previously had served for four seasons (2007–10) as skipper of the Portland Sea Dogs of the Eastern League, the Red Sox' Double-A farm club. In his two years as manager of the Pawtucket Red Sox, Beyeler led the team to an International League North Division title in 2011 and its third Governors' Cup championship in 2012.

Veltroniani refers to the faction around Walter Veltroni, leader of the Democratic Party, a political party in Italy, from 2007 to 2009. Most of them are social democrats coming from the Democrats of the Left. Apart the core group of Veltroniani, there are some distinct factions within the Democratic Party whose members are usually considered veltroniani: \n* Liberal PD \n* Democratic Ecologists \n* Social Christians During Veltroni's leadership, leading Veltroniani were Goffredo Bettini, Giorgio Tonini and Enrico Morando. Then there was a group of former Rutelliani, including notably Paolo Gentiloni and Ermete Realacci, who became very close to Veltroni and to his idea of Democratic Party. In strict terms Veltroniani are generally progressives and modernizers, as opposed to Dalemiani who are more traditional social democrats. After the departure of Veltroni from party leadership in February 2009, Veltroniani talked about organizing their faction, but finally there was a split between the staunch supporters of the new leader Dario Franceschini and those who soon started to criticize him. The first group includes mainly centrist figures, notably Tonini and Realacci, while the latter, mainly social democrats coming from the Italian Communist Party, led by Bettini and Michele Meta, launched a new faction, the Democrats in Network. In the 2009 Democratic Party leadership election the bulk of Veltroniani and Veltroni himself supported Franceschini, while the Democrats in Netweork of Bettini and Meta supported Ignazio Marino. Pier Luigi Bersani was elected secretary and most Veltroniani joined Democratic Area, the united minority faction led by Franceschini. However, when Franceschini re-approached with Bersani, Veltroni formed a \"movement\" to defend the \"original spirit\" of the PD. In doing this he was supported by 75 deputies: 33 Veltroniani, 35 Populars close to Giuseppe Fioroni and 7 former Rutelliani led by Paolo Gentiloni. The new faction was named Democratic Movement.

John Henry \"Jack\" Smith (16 June 1881 – 18 January 1953) was an Australian politician who was a member of the Legislative Assembly of Western Australia from 1921 to 1936 and again from 1939 to 1943, on both occasions representing the seat of Nelson. He stood for parliament eleven times in total, winning on six occasions. Smith was born in Bridgetown, Western Australia, to Eliza (née Cain) and Joseph Smith. After leaving school, he worked as a tin miner in Greenbushes for eight years, and later became the licensee of a Bridgetown hotel. He also served on the Bridgetown Road Board, including as chairman for a period. Smith was president of the local branch of the Labor Party until 1917, when he left the party. He first stood for parliament at the 1917 state election, running as an \"independent Labor\" candidate, but was defeated by Francis Willmott (the sitting Country Party member) in the seat of Nelson. At the 1920 Legislative Council elections, he contested South-West Province as an independent, but was again defeated by a sitting member, Ephraim Clarke of the Nationalist Party. Smith eventually entered parliament at the 1921 state election, standing as an \"independent Country\" candidate and defeating Willmott (his earlier opponent) in Nelson. In September 1922, Smith left the crossbench to join the Country Party. When the party split into two opposing factions in 1923, he joined the Ministerial faction, which supported the government of James Mitchell and the coalition with the Nationalist Party. He retained his seat at the 1924 state election, and after the election became a Nationalist himself, as with most other members of his faction. Smith was re-elected at the 1927, 1930, and 1933 elections, but in 1936 lost his seat to an independent, Clarence Doust, by a large margin. He reclaimed the seat in 1939, but in 1943 lost to Labor's Ernest Hoar by just 17 votes. Smith ran for parliament one last time in 1950, at the age of 68, standing as an independent in the new seat of Blackwood and losing to John Hearman of the Liberal Party by a narrow margin. He died in Pinjarra in January 1953, aged 71. He had married Mary Agnes Murnan in 1907, with whom he had two daughters.

New York is a bi-weekly magazine concerned with life, culture, politics, and style generally, and with a particular emphasis on New York City. Founded by Milton Glaser and Clay Felker in 1968 as a competitor to The New Yorker, it was brasher and less polite, and established itself as a cradle of New Journalism. Over time, it became more national in scope, publishing many noteworthy articles on American culture by writers such as Tom Wolfe, Jimmy Breslin, Nora Ephron, John Heilemann, Frank Rich, and Rebecca Traister. In its current incarnation under editor-in-chief Adam Moss, \"The nation's best and most-imitated city magazine is often not about the city—at least not in the overcrowded, traffic-clogged, five-boroughs sense\", wrote then Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz, as the magazine has increasingly published political and cultural stories of national significance. Since its redesign and relaunch in 2004, the magazine has won more National Magazine Awards than any other publication, which includes the 2013 award for Magazine of the Year. It was one of the first dual-audience \"lifestyle magazines\", and its format and style have been emulated by some other American regional city publications. In 2009, its paid and verified circulation was 408,622, with 95.8% of that coming from subscriptions. Its websites—NYmag.com, Vulture.com, The Cut, and Grub Street—receive visits from more than 14 million users per month.

Yakmeni had been the twenty-third Assyrian monarch of the Early Period of Aššūrāyu (Assyria) according to the Assyrian King List (AKL). Yakmeni is listed within a section of the AKL as the seventh out of the ten, \"kings whose fathers are known.\" This section (which in contrast to the rest of the list) had been written in reverse order—beginning with Aminu and ending with Apiashal “altogether ten kings who are ancestors”—and has often been interpreted as the list of ancestors of the Amorite Šamši-Adad I (fl. c. 1809 BCE) who had conquered the city-state of Aššur. The AKL also states that Yakmeni had been both the son and successor of Yakmesi. Additionally, the AKL states that Yakmeni had been both the predecessor and father of Yazkur-el.

Thomas Litterick (25 May 1929 – 6 January 1981) was a British Labour Party politician, on the left-wing of the party. Litterick was elected Member of Parliament for the previously Conservative seat of Birmingham Selly Oak in October 1974 general election, having unsuccessfully contested it in the election eight months earlier. However, he lost to the Conservative Anthony Beaumont-Dark at the 1979 general election. On the first day of the October Labour Party conference of that year, he gave a speech criticising the outgoing Prime Minister James Callaghan. Waving a clutch of policy papers which he claimed Callaghan had vetoed, he quoted from a popular television series featuring Jimmy Savile: \"\"Jim will fix it\", they said. Ay, he fixed it. He fixed all of us. He fixed me in particular.\" Delegates roared with approval and Tony Benn described it as a \"courageous speech\". Litterick died in 1981 aged 51.

Elvira Fuadovna Saadi (born January 2, 1952 in Tashkent, U.S.S.R.) is a retired gymnast from the former Soviet Union who is now an elite gymnastics coach in Canada. As a member of the Soviet Union's women's gymnastics team, Saadi shared in the team gold medals at the 1972 and 1976 Olympics. She placed 8th in the all-around at the 1972 Olympics and 7th all-around at the 1976 Olympics. Saadi won the all-around, balance beam and floor exercise at the 1973 USSR national championships. That year, she tried for first on vault at the 1973 World University Games, where she also placed 3rd in the all-around. At the 1974 World Championships, she earned a share of the USSR team gold, placed fourth in the all-around and captured the bronze medal on floor exercise. Following the 1976 Olympics, Saadi accepted a coaching position at the Moscow Dynamo Club, where she was the coach of Soviet gymnast Tatiana Groshkova, who placed third all-around in the 1989 U.S.S.R. gymnastics championships and placed first all-around at the 1990 Trophee Massilia. Saadi relocated to Canada in 1991 to become a coach at the Canadian gym Cambridge Kips, where she trained Canadian Olympians Yvonne Tousek and Crystal Gilmore. In June 2011, Saadi announced plans to open her own club, Dynamo Gymnastics. The new club has begun operations on the premises of Revolution Gymnastics in Waterloo, where several top young gymnasts who left Cambridge Kips with Saadi trained. Dynamo Gymnastics opened in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada in 2011. Saadi, opened the new club together with the parents of one of the up-and-coming gymnasts Victoria Moors who left Cambridge Kips with Saadi. Along with Victoria Moors was Madeline Gardiner. Both Gardiner and Moors went on to qualify for the Canadian London 2012 Olympic team. Moors competed as part of team Canada and helped to earn Canada 5th place over all - the best ranking of any Canadian Women's Artistic Gymnastics team ever at the Olympics. Gardiner was an alternate on the team but did not compete. Moor's was also the youngest Canadian Olympian competing at the age of 15. Victoria went on to briefly hold the record for a Canadian Women's Artistic Gymnast at the World's in Antwerp, Belgium, in 2013 placing 10th for Canada. The previous best ranking for a Canadian was 14th. (That 10th-place ranking has since been beaten this past year by Halifax's Ellie Black (Moors' team mate at the London Olympics). Victoria also has two moves named after her one a dismount from the bars and the other a tumbling line on floor, which is the hardest ranking floor skill to date. Victoria retired at the age of 18 in the spring of 2015. Dynamo with the leadership of Saadi continues to coach elite level athletes and has received numerous awards for their accomplishments.

Wynnea americana, commonly known as moose antlers or rabbit ears, is a species of fungus in the family Sarcoscyphaceae. This uncommon inedible species is recognizable by its spoon-shaped or rabbit-ear shaped fruit bodies that may reach up to 13 cm (5.1 in) tall. It has dark brown and warty outer surfaces, while the fertile spore-bearing inner surface is orange to pinkish to reddish-brown. The fruit bodies grow clustered together from large underground masses of compacted mycelia known as sclerotia. In eastern North America, where it is typically found growing in the soil underneath hardwood trees, it is found from New York to Michigan south to Mexico. The species has also been collected from Costa Rica, India, and Japan. Wynnea americana is distinguished from other species in the genus Wynnea by the pustules (small bumps) on the outer surface, and microscopically by the large asymmetrical longitudinally ribbed spores with a sharply pointed tip. The spores are made in structures called asci, which have thickened rings at one end that are capped by a hinged structure known as the operculum—a lid that is opened when spores are to be released from the ascus.

The present bridge was designed by C. E. Stanier of London, and completed in 1911, with a central section resting on Hayes's Island which divides the river into two channels. The structure of the main bridge, consisting of steel girders supported by concrete filled cast iron cylinders, and the pivoting swing bridge over the navigation channel, are of technical and engineering interest. The house on Hayes Island, accessed from the bridge, was the bridge operators house and pre-dates the present bridge.The opening section was replaced in October 2008.

TNA One Night Only is a series of professional wrestling events held by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). Most events are taped and released later periodically as a three-hour pay-per-view broadcast. The series began airing in April 2013, with new PPVs released on the first Friday of every month, except for the four months each year that each feature a live TNA pay-per-view event, with the exception of Hardcore Justice 3 which was aired on January 10, 2014. Every show is themed, e.g. around the X Division or tag team division. Promoted as individual \"specials\", the episodes—unlike the live pay-per-view events—are not connected to the storylines featured on TNA's weekly television programming nor to each other, though later One Night Only events still incorporated storylines into matches and situations. The concept was announced on January 11, 2013 by TNA President Dixie Carter as a part of a change to their pay-per-view programming. Prior to the change, TNA held live pay-per-view events monthly. Jeremy Borash and Josh Mathews handle commentary duties.

Carlos Whitman Moore (August 13, 1906 – July 2, 1958) is a former Major League Baseball player. A right-handed pitcher, Moore had a listed weight of 180 pounds. Moore's playing career in the majors spanned one month. He made his major league debut with the Washington Senators on May 4, 1930, and pitched his final game with them on May 30. He was effective in his four games on the mound, posting a 2.31 ERA in 11 2⁄3 of relief work and allowing only 13 baserunners. After the end of Moore's playing career, he worked as a manager in the minor leagues. While working in this capacity for the Jeanerette Blues of the Evangeline League, Moore noted the strong throwing arm of his team's weak-hitting first baseman Eddie Lopat, and he suggested that Lopat might want to consider a career as a pitcher. Lopat subsequently developed into an All-Star, winning 166 major league games and earning five World Series rings in the starting rotation of the New York Yankees.

The musical is based on a character and situations O'Hara created in a series of short stories published in The New Yorker, which he later published in novel form. The title character, Joey Evans, is a manipulative small-time nightclub performer whose ambitions lead him into an affair with the wealthy, middle-aged and married Vera Simpson. It includes two songs that have become standards: \"I Could Write a Book\" and \"Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered\". The original 1940 Broadway production was directed by George Abbott and starred Vivienne Segal and Gene Kelly. Though it received mixed reviews, the show ran for 10 months, the third-longest run of any Rodgers and Hart musical. There have been several revivals since, including a 2008–09 Broadway run, and a 1957 film adaptation starring Frank Sinatra, Rita Hayworth and Kim Novak.

Dan Meis (born 1961) is an American architect best known for designing sports and entertainment facilities including Staples Center, Safeco Field, Paul Brown Stadium and currently, Stadio Della Roma and Everton FC Stadium. His 30+ years of experience began in Chicago with Helmut/Jahn and includes time at some of the most well-known sports architecture firms in addition to co-founding the sports and entertainment practice of NBBJ. Dan currently operates his own independent studio established in 2014, MEIS architects, with offices in Soho, New York City, and Venice Beach, California. While at Ellerbe Becket in the 1990’s, Meis designed Europe's largest indoor arena, the Nynex Arena (now Manchester Arena) in Manchester, England, and led the design competition that won the $750 million Saitama Super Arena in Japan. Soon after winning the design competition, Meis left Ellerbe Becket to join established Seattle practice NBBJ, establishing NBBJ's sports division with Michael Hallmark and Ron Turner. Meis designed sports, entertainment and convention facilities that were highly-acclaimed including Staples Center in Los Angeles, the Dodge Theater (now Comerica Theatre) in Phoenix, Miller Park in Milwaukee, Safeco Field in Seattle, Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, and Paul Brown Stadium in Cincinnati, which was the first NFL facility to win an AIA design award. Meis’ design for Los Angeles' Staples Center has been heralded as the \"greatest arena ever built,\" and in 2001 he appeared in Time Magazine as one of their \"100 Innovators in the World of Sports.\" His work has twice been awarded the prestigious Business Week/Architectural Record Award and Meis is the only architect twice recognized as one of Sports Business Journal's \"40 under 40 Most Influential Sports Executives.\" Meis' work has been featured in numerous publications including Architectural Record, Metropolis, I.D., L.A. Architect, Stadium & Arena Management and SPACE magazine, and is a frequent lecturer at architectural schools across the world. In 2007, Meis was elevated to the College of the Fellows of the American Institute of Architects. Meis has developed a reputation for out-of-the-box, innovative thinking while creating projects that redefine their respective building types including a “transformable” venue in Japan that mechanically changes from arena to stadium. Meis’ ability to re-imagine typical ideas of what a building can be was highlighted in a November 2015 Sports Illustrated and WIRED Magazine Super Bowl 100 Series feature on “The Future of Stadium Design” and he will be speaking at SXSW in 2016 on a related subject. Recent projects credited as designed by Meis include the new Stadio Della Roma project for AS Roma, Everton FC’s new stadium, the LA Clippers Lexus Courtside Club and new corporate headquarters, Santa Anita Park experience enhancements and upgrades, and various premium improvements to Staples Center and Paul Brown Stadium.

The No. 382 Expeditionary Combat Support Squadron RAAF (382ECSS) was a Royal Australian Air Force combat support squadron established in 1998, and based at the RAAF Base Amberley, southwest of Ipswich, Queensland. It is a fully deployable unit which provides operational support to a forward operating base. Although its usual role was to supplement base services at RAAF Base Amberley, it had the capability to deploy to bare base and provide all the services to make it a fully operational base. In 1999, the 382 Expeditionary Combat Support Squadron spent three months with Peacekeeping forces in East Timor. The squadron repaired the Cakung airfield, the only airfield in East Timor capable of taking wide-body aircraft, which was vandalised when the Indonesian military left East Timor. Once the 382 Expeditionary Combat Support Squadron repaired the airfield, it was used as entry point for Interfet and humanitarian personnel and assistance. In 2003, the Australian Defence Force commenced a $1 billion upgrade of its fleet of trucks, trailers and motorbikes, and the 382 Expeditionary Combat Squadron was chosen to receive the initial roll-out of the replacement fleet. The new vehicles included trailers used for transporting personnel and supplies, evacuating casualties, and communication systems. The 382 Expeditionary Combat Support Squadron helped with cleanup efforts in The Gap in Queensland after 16 November, 2008, storms wreaked havoc on the area. In 2007 they spent 39 weeks in the Middle East. On 1 July 2010 changes to the structure of the Combat Support Group resulted in the functions of 382ECSS being integrated with No. 23 (City of Brisbane) Squadron at RAAF Amberley and 382ECSS being expanded to provide all support elements require by 23 SQN.

The Capture of Jisr ed Damieh took place on 22 September 1918 during the Third Transjordan attack of the Battle of Nablus which, along with the main Battle of Sharon formed the Battle of Megiddo fought during the Sinai and Palestine Campaign of the First World War. Units of Chaytor's Force under the commanded by Brigadier-General William Meldrum, and known as \"Meldrum's Force\", attacked and captured the bridge. This successful attack cut the most direct line of retreat from the Judean Hills for the Seventh and remnants of the Eighth Armies, while units from these two armies were moving towards, and crossing the Jisr ed Damieh bridge over the Jordan River. This victory by Meldrum's Force opened the way for Chaytor's Force to advance along the main Nablus to Es Salt road to capture Es Salt and to continue on to the victory at the Second Battle of Amman. The main attack by the Egyptian Expeditionary Force (EEF), commanded by General Edmund Allenby, during the battle of Sharon focused on the Mediterranean coastal sector and western Judean Hills, with a simultaneous attack by the XXI Corps on the Ottoman Eighth Army and breakthrough by the Desert Mounted Corps. Meanwhile, in the Nablus battle area in the Judean Hills, on the right flank of the main attack, the XX Corps faced the Ottoman Seventh Army, while Chaytor's Force held the extreme right flank in the Jordan Valley, against the Ottoman Fourth Army. Once it became apparent that the initial attacks and subsequent cavalry breakthrough during the Battle of Tulkarm, Battle of Tabsor and Capture of Afulah and Beisan were succeeding, the XX Corps Battle of Nablus began in the Judean Hills towards Nablus. Also Chaytor's Force began their attacks northwards in the Jordan Valley, then crossed the Jordan River to capture Es Salt and Amman. This advance resulted in the capture of about half of the Fourth Army at Amman and Ziza and many miles of territory. The remnants of the Fourth Army retreated in disarray towards Damascus where most were captured.

The order Ricinulei is a group of arachnids known as hooded tickspiders, though they are not true spiders. Like most arachnids, they are predatory, eating small arthropods. In older works they are sometimes referred to as Podogona. As of December 2011, 58 extant species of ricinuleids have been described worldwide, all in the single family Ricinoididae. They occur today in west-central Africa (Ricinoides) and the Neotropical region (Cryptocellus and Pseudocellus). In addition to the three living genera, there are two families and four genera containing fossil species.

Nine Parts of Desire (Arabic: تسعة اجزاء من الرغبة) is a play written by Heather Raffo. In the original version of the play, a single performer plays all nine characters. Heather Raffo herself has acted in productions of Nine Parts of Desire. Some productions opt to use multiple actors. Joanna Settle directed the play's first productions. Michael Billington of The Guardian wrote that the play's \"great virtue\" \"is that it not only deals with the plight of Iraqi women but forces us to confront the moral issues of war.\" Melissa Rose Bernardo of Entertainment Weekly wrote that \"What Raffo unearths, beneath the aforementioned Saddam-inflicted atrocities, is the universal and very basic human trait of insecurity.\" Billington added that \"The play raises a difficult question, especially for those opposed to the recent war: what should the west have done about Iraq?\"

Wisconsin v. City of New York et al. was a Supreme court case that held that under the Constitution's Census Clause, Congress is granted with the authority to conduct an \"actual enumeration\" of the American society, chiefly for the purpose of allocating congressional representation among the states. Congress assigned the responsibility of conducting an \"actual enumeration\" of the American society to the Secretary of Commerce, who in the 1990 census, decided not to implement the statistical correction, better known as the post-enumeration survey (PES) to adjust an undercount in the initial population count. Furthermore, following several citizens' groups, states, and cities, Wisconsin disputed the Secretary's decision not to use PES declaring that it resulted in an undercounting of certain identifiable minority groups.

\"Chance of a Lifetime\" was the Irish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1968, performed in English by Pat McGeegan. It was written by John Kennedy. The song is a ballad, with McGeegan reminiscing about the first time he saw his lover. He tells her that he thought her appearance in his life was \"the chance of a lifetime\", and goes on to explain that he doesn't want to lose such a chance. The song was performed fourteenth on the night, following Norway's Odd Børre with \"Stress\" and preceding Spain's Massiel with \"La, la, la\". At the close of voting, it had received 18 points, placing 4th in a field of 17. However, the song went to the top of the Irish singles chart, only to be knocked off a week later by Cliff Richard's \"Congratulations\", which came second in the contest. It was succeeded as Irish representative at the 1969 Contest by Muriel Day with \"The Wages of Love\".
