After Steve Bruce left the club to join Sunderland, the club approached Swansea City manager Roberto Martínez. The Spaniard signed a three-year deal with Wigan on 15 June, bringing four backroom staff with him. The new manager's first signing was Jordi Gómez, who signed from RCD Espanyol. The club then confirmed three pre-season fixtures, all away, to Crewe Alexandra, Preston North End and Norwich City. The departure of Ecuadorian winger Antonio Valencia was confirmed on 30 June, as the 23-year-old moved to Manchester United for a club-record fee rumoured to be around £16 million. The club then announced the signing of Hendry Thomas from Honduran side Olimpia on a three-year deal. Trinidadian striker Jason Scotland became Martínez's third signing when he agreed a two-year deal on 15 July. Republic of Ireland under-21 international James McCarthy then agreed a five-year deal, joining from Scottish Premier League side Hamilton Academical. Chelsea winger Scott Sinclair signed a one-year loan deal with the club, and Martínez also signed Spaniards Román Golobart and Abian Serrano. Rayo Vallecano centre-half Antonio Amaya was also snapped up on the eve of the new season on a three-year deal. Meanwhile, former manager Steve Bruce brought midfielder Lee Cattermole to Sunderland for £6 million. There was further movement in the transfer market as Martínez signed defensive midfielder Mohamed Diamé after complications suffered with Diamé's medical. The club then confirmed the departure of midfielder Michael Brown to Portsmouth after two years and 64 appearances.

Borough of Duryea v. Guarnieri, 564 U.S. ___ (2011), was a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States held the public concern test limits Petition Clause claims by public employees. More specifically state and local government employees may not sue their employers for retaliation under the Petition Clause of the First Amendment when they petition the government on matters of private concern. To show that an employer interfered with rights under the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment, an employee must show that his speech related to a matter of public concern. The court held that this test also applies when the employee invokes the Petition Clause. The case is significant under the Petition Clause because 1.) it recognized that lawsuits are “Petitions” under the First Amendment and 2.) it explains that the Petition Clause and Speech Clause are not always coextensive, and leaves open the possibility that here may be additional claims under the Petition Clause which plaintiffs may invoke consistent with the purpose of that Clause.

John Henry \"J.H.\" Taylor (19 March 1871 – 10 February 1963) was an English professional golfer and one of the pioneers of the modern game of golf. Taylor is considered to be one of the best golfers of all time. He was also a significant golf course architect. Taylor was born in Devon. He was a member of the fabled Great Triumvirate of the sport in his day, along with Harry Vardon and James Braid, and he won The Open Championship five times. Born into a working-class family, and orphaned as a boy, he began work as a caddy and labourer at the Royal North Devon Golf Club (also known as Westward Ho!) at the age of eleven. He was employed as a caddie and houseboy by the Hutchinson family and was tasked to carry the bag of Horace Hutchinson. He became a professional golfer at 19, and was employed by Burnham & Berrow Golf Club, the Winchester (later Royal Winchester) Golf Club - while there winning in successive years the first two of his Open Championships - then the Royal Wimbledon Golf Club, before eventually moving to the Royal Mid-Surrey Golf Club from 1899 until his retirement in 1946. In 1901, Taylor was a co-founder and the first chairman of the British Professional Golfers' Association. This was the first association for professional golfers in the world. Bernard Darwin wrote that Taylor \"had turned a feckless company into a self-respecting and respected body of men\". Taylor was a factor in the Open Championship from age 22 in 1893, until age 55, when he tied for 11th place in 1926. His five Open victories all took place before the First World War. Open Championship wins: \n* 1894 – Royal St George's \n* 1895 – St Andrews \n* 1900 – St Andrews \n* 1909 – Royal Cinque Ports \n* 1913 – Royal Liverpool GC, Hoylake Taylor captained the 1933 Great Britain Ryder Cup team to a win over the United States, and remains the only captain on either side never to have played in any of the matches. Taylor was also involved in designing courses across England including Hindhead GC in 1904, Andover GC in 1907, Frilford Heath's Red Course in 1908, Hainault Golf Club's Upper Course in 1909, Heaton Park GC (Manchester) in 1912, Hainault Golf Club's Lower Course in 1923, Pinner Hill GC (Middlesex) 1927, Axe Cliff GC (Seaton, Devon) in 1920s and Batchwood Hall GC (St Albans) in 1935. He is attributed with being the inventor of the 'dogleg', although holes of that form had existed on many courses before Taylor began golf course design (for example No. 7 at Old Course at St Andrews and No. 4 at Prestwick Golf Club). He was made an honorary member of the R&A in 1949, and was president of Royal Birkdale, whose course he had designed, in 1957. A housing development in his hometown of Northam was named in his honour (JH Taylor Drive).

Storholmen Lighthouse (Norwegian: Storholmen fyr) is an active lighthouse in the municipality of Giske in Møre og Romsdal county on the west coast of Norway. This remote lighthouse is located on a tiny skerry about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) due north of the tiny island of Erkna and 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) northwest of the populated island of Vigra. The light is lit from the 16th of July until the 21st of May. It is not lit during the summer because it is unnecessary due to the midnight sun in this part of the world. The lighthouse was only accessible by boat in calm seas during the summer, since boats cannot land on the tiny island. Goods and people had to be hoisted onto the island from the sea. From 1970 and until the lighthouse was automated in 1980, transport to the lighthouse was done by helicopter. The narrow 4-by-4-metre (13 ft × 13 ft) landing pad could only be used by very experienced pilots.

KMUC (90.5 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a classical music format. Licensed to Columbia, Missouri, USA, the station is currently owned by Stephens College. In November 2014, Stephens announced it would sell the then-KWWC-FM to the University of Missouri, which already owned NPR member station KBIA (91.3). Once the sale was completed, the classical music format heard on KBIA during the daytime was moved to 90.5, while the 91.3 signal would have a news/talk/information format similar to sister stations KWMU in St. Louis and KCUR-FM in Kansas City. The call letters were also to be changed to KMUC. Stephens plans to keep KWWC as an internet-only station. The station changed its call sign to KMUC on October 29, 2015 and changed their format to classical music on October 31, 2015.

Saint Donatus of Arezzo (Italian: San Donato di Arezzo) is the patron saint of Arezzo, and considered a bishop of the city. A Passio of Donatus' life was written by a bishop of Arezzo, Severinus; it is of questionable historicity. He calls Donatus a martyr, though Donatus is described as a bishop and confessor of the faith in ancient sources rather than as a martyr. An early hagiography of Donatus was already known to Gregory the Great. According to tradition, Donatus was martyred on August 7, 362 during the reign of Julian the Apostate and was a native of Nicomedia.

Larus is a large genus of gulls with worldwide distribution (although by far the greatest species diversity is in the Northern Hemisphere). The genus name is from Ancient Greek laros (λάῥος) or Latin Larus which appears to have referred to a gull or other large seabird. Many of its species are abundant and well-known birds in their ranges. Until about 2005–2007, most gulls were placed in this genus, but this arrangement is now known to be polyphyletic, leading to the resurrection of the genera Ichthyaetus, Chroicocephalus, Leucophaeus, and Hydrocoloeus (this last had been recognized more often than the other genera) for several species traditionally included in Larus. They are in general medium to large birds, typically grey or white, often with black markings on the head or wings. They have stout, longish bills and webbed feet. The taxonomy of the large gulls in the herring and lesser black-backed complex is very complicated, different authorities recognising between two and eight species.

Kurt Meyer, nicknamed \"Panzermeyer\" (23 December 1910 – 23 December 1961), served as an officer in the Waffen-SS during World War II. He saw action in many major battles, including the Battle of France, Operation Barbarossa, and the Battle of Normandy. He was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords. After the war, Meyer was convicted of war crimes for his role in the Ardenne Abbey massacre, the killing of Canadian prisoners of war in Normandy. He was sentenced to death. The sentence was later commuted to life imprisonment. He was released in 1954 due to the changing political climate in West Germany. Upon his release, Meyer became active in HIAG, a revisionist organisation and a lobby group formed by former high-ranking Waffen-SS men in West Germany in 1951, including Paul Hausser and Felix Steiner. He was described by historians as a leading Waffen-SS apologist and the organisation's most effective spokesperson. He wrote the book Grenadiers, which was part of HIAG's propaganda campaign to promote the perceptions of the Waffen-SS in popular culture as apolitical, recklessly brave fighters who were not involved in the war crimes of the Nazi regime. These ideas have since been discredited by historians.

The Ridings Federation Yate International Academy (formerly King Edmund Community School) is a secondary school located in the town of Yate in South Gloucestershire, on the outskirts of Bristol, England. It was founded in 1953. In 2007, Rob Gibson, the (former) headteacher of The Ridings High School was invited by the DCSF to consider a move to academy status as the Lead (non-financial) sponsor in a Hard Federation, incorporating King Edmund Community School in Yate.

Gibson became the Chief Executive Principal of the Federation and the Statutory Headteacher of both academies. This changed in 2015 when the academy introduced the new Chief Executive Principal Beverley Martin. Richard Haupt is Principal at Winterbourne International Academy and Paul Skipp is Principal at Yate International Academy. The Winterbourne International Academy has approximately 1,820 students on roll including 320 in its sixth form. The Yate International Academy has approximately 700 students on roll including 100+ in its new sixth form called Cotswold Edge Sixth Form which was introduced in 2015.

WOTT (94.1 FM, \"94 Rock\") is an active rock formatted radio station licensed to Calcium, New York. It was originally a country music station, with the call letters WLKC, before taking the current call letters as an oldies station with the on-air name \"WOTT (pronounced \"watt\") Fun Oldies.\" After dropping the oldies format and nickname, the station took a classic rock format as \"Real Rock 100.7.\" In early 2007, the station began experimenting with guest DJs and announced that the station would be undergoing some changes. The station reinvented itself, somewhat, rebranding itself as \"Rock 100.7\". On February 9, 2009 the station switched frequencies from 100.7 to 94.1 and boosted its power from 6,000 watts to 21,500 watts, allowing the station to reach northern Jefferson county and Lewis county, areas which could never receive the station before. The new class C3 station it moved to was put on the air by Community Broadcsters, LLC after it was purchased from LiveAir Communications, Inc. in January, 2009. The station's format and call letters are still the same, but the station's name was changed from Rock 100.7 to Rock 94. The former 100.7 frequency now belongs to the station WEFX, 100.7 The Fox.

George Childs Burling (February 17, 1834 – December 24, 1885) was a United States Union Army officer during the American Civil War, serving mostly as colonel and commander of the 6th New Jersey Volunteer Infantry. Burling was born in Burlington County, New Jersey, raised on his father's farm and educated at a private school in Norristown, Pennsylvania. He was a coal merchant and a militia officer before the war. Burling's militia company was mustered into the volunteer service for a three-month term in July 1861, but it became company F of the 6th New Jersey with a three-year enlistment on September 9, 1861. Burling became the regiment's major on March 19, 1862 and lieutenant colonel on May 7 of that year. Burling was wounded at the Second Battle of Bull Run in August 1862. When Colonel Gershom Mott, commander of the 6th New Jersey, became a general, Burling was promoted to colonel. Burling commanded the regiment at the Battle of Chancellorsville, where he was wounded. His most notable service was as commander of his brigade (once known as the \"Second New Jersey Brigade\" of III Corps (ACW) but reorganized to include troops from other states) at the July 1863 Battle of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. His brigade was in reserve at the beginning of the second day's fighting on the left flank of the Army of the Potomac, but regiments were moved about separately as higher commanders saw fit. One regiment, 6th New Jersey, fought near Devil's Den. 8th New Jersey and 115th Pennsylvania fought in the Wheatfield. 7th New Jersey and 2nd New Hampshire supported artillery deployed at the Peach Orchard. 5th New Jersey was on the Emmitsburg Road. The brigade entered the battle with an estimated 1,396 troops and lost, according to Burling, 513 officers and men. Burling resigned March 4, 1864 because of ill health. He was awarded the brevet promotion to brigadier general, United States Volunteers on March 13, 1865, for \"gallant and meritorious services in the Battle of Gettysburg, Pa.\" Burling married in October 1862. After the war, he and his wife lived on a farm outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Burling was employed for a time by the Pennsylvania Railroad and died at his home in Philadelphia of pulmonary cancer two decades after the war ended. He is buried in Harleigh Cemetery, Camden, New Jersey, in the Trinity Section, Lot 118. He is one of three Civil War Union Brevet Generals interred in the cemetery, along with Colonel William Joyce Sewell of the 5th New Jersey Volunteer Infantry and Colonel Timothy C. Moore of the 34th New Jersey Volunteer Infantry.

Threes! is an indie puzzle video game by Sirvo, an independent development team consisting of game designer Asher Vollmer, illustrator Greg Wohlwend, and composer Jimmy Hinson. The game was released on February 6, 2014, for iOS devices and later ported to Android, Xbox One, and Windows Phone. In Threes, the player slides numbered tiles on a grid to combine addends and multiples of three. The game ends when there are no moves left on the grid and the tiles are counted for a final score. The basic game was prototyped in a single night, but the team spent over half a year iterating through variations on the idea with visual themes such as sushi and chess. By the end of the game's 14-month development, the team returned to the game's simple principles and numbers theme. The game received what video game review score aggregator Metacritic described as \"universal acclaim\". Reviewers found the game \"charming\" and \"addictive\" and compared it to Drop7, Stickets, and Triple Town. Eurogamer and TouchArcade awarded the game perfect scores, with the latter calling Threes \"about as close as it gets to a perfect mobile game\". Other developers released similar games and clones within weeks of the game's launch. Apple Inc. named Threes the best iPhone game of 2014.

Dondang Sayang literally love ballad, originated in Malacca sometime in the 15th century, influenced by traditional Portuguese folk music. A typical group is made up of 4 musicians who perform on the violin, 2 rebana and a gong or tetawak. The chief musician is usually the violinist who plays a primary role in dondang sayang, providing a counter melody to the vocal melody. Musicians may switch instruments in between performances, but the violinist seldom does, although this is permitted. If there are musicians to spare, up to 5 rebana may be used. Sometimes, the rebana may be substituted by the tambour and barrel drum or even the kompang. The music is slow, and a song usually consists of 32 bars, beginning with a violin introduction, with the rebana and then the gong entering, and the voice finally entering in bar 5. Its style is somewhat informal and its lyrics usually consist of love poems. (Ahmad Usop 1984). The musical instruments may also be augmented with an accordion (Shafiee Ahmad 1992). It is a traditional Malay form of entertainment where Baba and Nyonya singers exchange extemporaneous Malay Pantun (poetry), in a lighthearted and sometimes humorous style. The singers are normally accompanied by a violin, two Malay rebana (drums), and a tetawak (gong). These instruments are often supplemented by other available instruments, most notably, accordions, flutes, or an additional violin. It is also associated with the Ronggeng dance.

Old Money is a studio album by Omar Rodríguez-López released by Stones Throw Records in November 2008, and is the musician's first album on that label. Rodríguez-López explained that the album is \"loosely based on the concept of exploitative industrialists and, well, their old money.\" Stones Throw Records released the vinyl version of the album on February 6, 2009. Rodriguez-Lopez has hinted that this record was a potential follow up to the 2006 The Mars Volta studio album Amputechture until he changed his musical direction. Many songs share similarities with previous Mars Volta live jams. Review aggregate site Metacritic calculates a score of 70/100 for the album, but erroneously referred to it as \"The debut album for the Mars Volta guitarist\". In the song \"I Like Rockefellers' First Two Albums, But After That...\", there is a dialog from the movie El Topo, from Chilean director Alejandro Jodorowsky.

The 1930 PGA Championship was the 13th PGA Championship, held September 8–13 at Fresh Meadow Country Club in Flushing, New York. Then a match play championship, Tommy Armour defeated Gene Sarazen 1 up in the finals for the second of his three major titles. Johnny Farrell and Horton Smith were co-medalists at 145 (+5) in the 36-hole stroke play qualifier on Monday. Two-time defending champion Leo Diegel lost in the second round to Harold Sampson in 38 holes, ending his bid for a third straight title. Runner-up Sarazen was the club pro at Fresh Meadow; he previously won the PGA Championship in 1922 and 1923. During the Monday qualifier, Diegel shot 81 in the morning round, and was in danger of not advancing to match play. He followed up with a 69 in the afternoon and his 150 put him only five strokes behind the medalists, in a tie for 8th place, easily within the top 32. Starting in 1931, the defending champion was exempt from qualifying. The course where this PGA Championship was played in Queens no longer exists. Designed by A. W. Tillinghast, it opened in 1923 and also hosted the U.S. Open in 1932, won by Sarazen. Under increasing development and tax pressure, the Fresh Meadow Country Club sold the property in 1946, which was developed as a residential neighborhood (the Fresh Meadows section of Queens). The club then purchased the property, clubhouse, and golf course of the defunct Lakeville Golf & Country Club in Lake Success, its current home.

Tiliqua scincoides is a species of skink in the genus Tiliqua, the blue-tongued skinks or blue-tongued lizards. It is native to Indonesia and Australia. This is a large terrestrial lizard measuring up to 40 centimeters long and 700 grams in weight. It has a stout body and short legs. It is variable in color but generally has a banded pattern. The tongue is blue-violet to cobalt blue in color. This lizard is diurnal, active during the day. It is omnivorous. It is ovoviviparous, the eggs hatching inside the female's body; she then gives birth to 5 to 25 live young per litter. This species is known to live over 30 years. It is an adaptable animal, often finding habitat in urban and suburban areas, including residential areas of Sydney. The lizard is considered beneficial in these areas, with its appetite for garden pests such as slugs and snails. When threatened it may hiss and reveal its blue tongue, startling potential predators. It has strong jaws and can deliver a damaging bite. There are three subspecies: \n* Tiliqua scincoides chimaerea – Tanimbar blue-tongued skink \n* Tiliqua scincoides intermedia – northern blue-tongued skink \n* Tiliqua scincoides scincoides – eastern blue-tongued skink

Prumnopitys andina (Lleuque), the Chilean plum yew, is an evergreen coniferous tree native to south-central Chile and a few areas in adjacent parts of westernmost Argentina from 36 to 40° South latitude. It lives on moderately wet soils, preferably on Andean slopes from 500–1,100 meters (1,600–3,600 ft). It grows up to 30 m (98 ft) high, with a trunk up to 2 m (6.6 ft) in diameter. The leaves are linear to sickle-shaped, 15–30 mm long and 2 mm broad. The seed cones are highly modified, reducing to a central stem 2–4 cm long bearing 1-4 scales, each scale maturing berry-like, oval, 10–15 mm long and 10 mm broad, green maturing dark purple, with a soft edible pulp covering the single seed. The seeds are dispersed by birds, which eat the 'berries' and pass the seeds in their droppings. Seeds are very difficult to germinate. It has a straight and cylindrical trunk, with gray and shiny bark. Before the genus Prumnopitys was distinguished, it was treated in the related genus Podocarpus as Podocarpus andinus. It has also been treated by some botanists as Prumnopitys spicata (Molloy & Muñoz-Schick 1999); however this name is illegitimate (Mill & Quinn 2001). Prumnopitys elegans (Phil) is a synonym for Prumnopitys andina. The fruit (an Aril) are tasty, 1.5 cm (0.59 in) long, blue-purple in color, are eaten by Native American people in Chile, and a marmalade is produced with them. The tree is also occasionally grown as an ornamental tree and a hedge in oceanic climate areas in northwest Europe and the Pacific Northwest of North America. In these areas, it is also sometimes known as \"Plum-yew\" or \"Plum-fruited Yew\", though these names are more commonly applied to plants in the genus Cephalotaxus (Cephalotaxaceae). The wood is a yellowish color and has a good quality. It is used in furniture and construction. Evidence suggests that very little regeneration is occurring to replace current ageing trees in populations. In 2007, the Forestry Commission planted large numbers of young trees at Bedgebury Pinetum in the UK as part of a project aiming to conserve the genetic resources of endangered conifers.

Rigsdagen (Danish pronunciation: [ˈʁisˌd̥æːˀən]) was the name of the national legislature of Denmark from 1849 to 1953. Rigsdagen was Denmark's first parliament, and it was incorporated in the Constitution of 1849. It was a bicameral legislature, consisting of two houses, the Folketing and the Landsting. The distinction between the two houses was not always clear, as they had equal power. In 1953, a new constitution was approved by referendum and adopted, with the result that Rigsdagen and the Landsting were eliminated in favor of a unicameral legislature under the name of the Folketing. Rigsdagen, like today's Folketing, was located in Christiansborg Palace in the centre of Copenhagen. Membership in Rigsdagen was limited to certain sectors of society – women were not allowed to join, and neither were about a quarter of all men over 30, mostly due to their condition as servants or welfare recipients. The name is a cognate of the names of several legislatures in other Germanic countries, such as the Reichstag in Germany, the Riksdag in Sweden, or the Riksdag in Finland. (For a discussion of the traditional Germanic councils that gave root to bodies such as these, see the article on Ting-style councils.)

Pundra University of Science and Technology (Bengali: পুন্ড্র বিজ্ঞাণ ও প্রযুক্তি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়) is a private university in Bogra, Bangladesh. This university obtains approval from UGC and Government of People's Republic of Bangladesh. Pundra (also known as Pundra, Paundra, Paundraya, etc.) was the branch of one of the most developed civilizations of ancient west Bengal, now a part of northern Bangladesh. The civilization of Pundra was not established overnight—it had to go through the evolutionary process of thousands of years. A considerable number of Bangladeshi people today are actually the successors of the people of the Pundra civilization. We cannot deny the fact that we are very much indebted to the Pundra civilization for all that we have today—for example, our education, culture, customs, social values etc. Pundra civilization represented a huge prosperous mixed population with its strong central government—it had a strong administrative and political system along with an enriched economic background of a well-established commercial center. With a sophisticated touch of water tank technology, Pundra was one of the important civilizations which had a cluster of villages surrounded by noticeable walls all along. To talk about its technology, it should be mentioned that its walls had been built three hundred years before the Great Wall of China. Its agriculture developed on a splendid combination of the river ‘Karatoa’ and other lakes; and in fact, this formed the basic layout of Pundra civilization. With the succession of Stone Age, Iron Age, Bronze Age; the Pundra civilization flourished from every aspect—navigation, astrology, astronomy, mathematics, philosophy, theology etc. Furthermore, it helped flourish art and literature—for example, epic, folk literature, and other types of literature especially those that survived orally generations after generations came into written text at that time. The Pundra civilization showed a great thirst for knowledge; the establishment of the ancient university ‘Vashubiharh’ stood as a testimony of that. The social ideas, values, customs, philosophy, and humanity of the Pundra civilization soon earned a worldwide recognition. The Pundra University of Science and Technology has been established with a noble intention to uphold and keep alive all the values of the great Pundra civilization. With such a naming of the university and such intentions as mentioned above, we desire to take part in the world’s history and domain of knowledge.
