Julius Valerius Alexander Polemius (third to fourth century AD) was a translator of the Greek Pseudo-Callisthenes, the romantic history of Alexander the Great, to the Latin Res gestae Alexandri Macedonis, in three books: birth; acts; death. The work is important in connection with the transmission of the Alexander story in the Middle Ages. |

Alexander Polemius is tentatively identified by historians with one of the Roman consuls for the year 338. The appointment was unusual, as the emperor Constantine I had died the previous year, and custom prescribed that a new emperor – in this case, Constantine's sons – assumed the consulship in the year following his accession. This led Timothy Barnes to suggest that Polemius, who was probably a general, played a leading role in the purge which killed many members of the imperial family in 337, securing the succession of Constantine's sons, and that he received the consulship as a belated reward for this service. In 345, the same Polemius was a under the emperor Constantius II, and wrote a letter to the exiled bishop of Alexandria, Athanasius, encouraging him to return to his see. |

When freshman Trixie Stone (Brittany Robertson) accuses her ex-boyfriend Jason Underhill (Jamie Johnston) of raping her, everyone is quick to take his side when he claims their intercourse was consensual. Trixie's parents, Daniel (Ron Eldard), a mild mannered comic book artist from a harsh background, and Laura (Kelly Preston), a college professor of literature sleeping with one of her students, become involved. After questioning Trixie and conducting a blood test it is revealed that Trixie was drugged, and people begin to believe that she was really raped. Jason, whose life is supposedly ruined, leaps from a bridge. Although first presumed to be suicide, Trixie and her father are later suspected of pushing him off the bridge. After the police call Daniel requesting blood samples from him and Trixie to compare to blood found under Jason's fingernails, he attempts to flee with her in his car but is soon stopped by the police, and he then tells Trixie that he was the one who pushed Jason off the bridge. |

Daniel is brought in to the police station and confesses to pushing Jason, but is then brought to another room with Laura inside. Laura confesses to Daniel that she was there when Jason died. Jason (who was drunk) and Laura get into an argument as he is standing outside the bridge rails and in the struggle he loses his balance and falls off the bridge. Laura tries to grab him but is unable to pull him up and he falls down leaving scratches on Laura's hands. The police decide not to press charges against Laura and the whole family is released. |

The title of the film is based on the notion in Dante's Divine Comedy that hell is divided into nine circles. In one of the final scenes of the movie, Laura, who is teaching the Divine Comedy in college, says that there must be a tenth circle in hell, kept for those who hurt their beloved ones and kept acting as if everything was as usual. |

"Tar Top" is a song written by Randy Owen, and recorded by American country music group Alabama. It was released in August 1987 as the first single from their album Just Us. The song reached number 7 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart in October 1987, making it their first commercial single not to reach number 1 since 1980's "My Home's in Alabama". |
27326290_0_1 | 27326290 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tar%20Top | Tar Top | Tar Top. Content
The song references musical groups that Owen and his bandmates played in prior to the foundation of Alabama, and its title is a reference to a nickname that Owen had in the pre-Alabama days. Owen said that he wrote it a few years prior to the album's release, at a point when he "was making some personal assessments on what [he] could do and what [he] couldn`t do physically and mentally". |

27326309_0_4 | 27326309 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip%20Industries | Zip Industries | Zip Industries. Early history
Prior to 1962, Zip focused mainly on boiling water heaters for kitchens and then hot water heaters for bathrooms, which it manufactured and marketed in Australia from about 1947, in an era when whole-house hot water had yet to be widely adopted. An early Zip innovation was a manually operated over-sink boiling water heater with a "ready whistle" and automatic cut-off, which became a popular fixture in Australian restaurants and community kitchens during the 1950s and 1960s. The company was acquired by Crouch in 1962. |
27326309_0_5 | 27326309 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip%20Industries | Zip Industries | Zip Industries. Product development
During the 1960s, Zip expanded its range of over-sink boiling water heaters catering for canteen, restaurant, factory and office kitchens needing high volumes of boiling water for tea, coffee and cooking. Larger capacity boiling water heaters were also manufactured for use in dairies. |
27326309_0_6 | 27326309 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip%20Industries | Zip Industries | Zip Industries.
By 1970, Zip also installed the world's first "boiling water tap" – a boiling water tap installed beside standard hot and cold taps. |
27326309_0_7 | 27326309 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip%20Industries | Zip Industries | Zip Industries.
By 1975, Zip complemented its early over-sink boiling water heaters with its first on-wall instant boiling water heaters with enhanced energy efficiency and an increased capacity measured in number of cups of boiling water per hour. These were followed closely by the introduction of the Zip Miniboil, the first small on-wall instant boiling water heater. The Zip Miniboil was followed closely by the Zip Tea Tap, an under-sink, non-pressurized instant boiling water system. It delivered water within one degree of boiling point, with little or no steam or splatter. The Zip Tea Tap originated a patented steam condensing system to eliminate the emission of excessive steam in conjunction with boiling water. By 1985, Zip Tea Tap was so well accepted in Australia that it was specified for all of the kitchens and Members' offices in the new Parliament House, Canberra. |
27326309_0_8 | 27326309 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip%20Industries | Zip Industries | Zip Industries.
In the early 1990s, Zip introduced a range of advanced on-wall instant boiling water heaters under the Zip Hydroboil brand. These were far more compact, energy-efficient and easier to service than any existing equivalents. |
27326309_0_9 | 27326309 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip%20Industries | Zip Industries | Zip Industries.
By 1996, Zip introduced air-cooled Zip HydroTap under-bench filtered instant boiling water systems which also dispensed filtered chilled drinking water from a single touch-button electronic tap. By 2004, the initial Zip HydroTap was superseded by re-designed product engineering and a distinctive lever-action electronic tap offering precise water flow control, safety, and power-saving features, plus a "font" accessory which enabled the tap to be positioned away from any sink, with independent drainage. The new Zip HydroTap proved popular worldwide. Models introduced in 2012 provide sparkling chilled and filtered drinking water (in addition to boiling and chilled) from one tap. The Zip HydroTap All-In-One launched in 2012, gives boiling, chilled and sparkling filtered water plus hot and cold water. |

John Sprunt Hill (March 17, 1869 – July 29, 1961) was a North Carolina lawyer, banker and philanthropist who played a fundamental role in the civic and social development of Durham, North Carolina, the expansion of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the development of rural credit unions in North Carolina during the first half of the 20th century. |
27326329_1_0 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Early life and education
Born in Faison, in Duplin County, North Carolina to William Edward Hill and Frances Diana Hill, John Sprunt Hill left school at age twelve, to work as a clerk in a country store for four years. He then attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity and one of the co-founders of the Order of Gimghoul, and graduated maxima cum laude in 1889 with a Ph.B. For two years, Hill taught at Faison High School, until he began attending law school at UNC in 1891. In 1892, he moved to New York City to complete his degree at Columbia University. Hill graduated from Columbia Law in 1894 and was admitted to the New York bar association and began practicing estate law, becoming a well-regarded and successful lawyer with his own firm, Hill, Sturcke & Andrews, by January 1895. In 1898, Hill volunteered to serve in the U.S. Army in the Spanish–American War, fighting in Puerto Rico. Following the war, he returned to Manhattan, continuing his law practice and becoming involved with the Democratic Party. He joined and served as a leader in groups like the Reform Club and the Young Men's Democratic Club. In 1900, John Sprunt Hill ran, unsuccessfully, as a Democrat, for a seat in the United States House of Representatives, representing the heavily Republican 14th district of New York. |
27326329_1_1 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Return to North Carolina
While attending Columbia, John Sprunt Hill met and became romantically-involved with fellow-student Annie Louise Watts, daughter of North Carolina businessman George Washington Watts, who had co-founded the American Tobacco Company with James B. Duke. John Sprunt Hill married Watts, in New York, on November 29, 1899. In September 1903, shortly after the birth of their first child, George Watts Hill, John and Annie decided to relocate their family to Durham, to go into business with his father-in-law. |
27326329_1_2 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Boom and bust in the Bull City
G.W. Watts and J.S. Hill became powerful partners in the burgeoning Bull City. Together, they founded the Home Savings Bank, where Hill served as president, and Durham Loan & Trust Company, where he served as chairman of the board, almost immediately upon Hill's arrival in Durham. From 1908 to 1910, J.S. Hill served as vice-president of Erwin Cotton Mills. In 1916, Watts and Hill founded the Home Security Life Insurance Company. |
27326329_1_3 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Biography
During the Great Depression, Watts and Hill reorganized the Durham Loan & Trust Company into the Durham Bank & Trust Company in 1931. In 1950, Home Savings Bank merged with the Durham Bank & Trust. In early 1961, Durham Bank & Trust merged with University National Bank of Chapel Hill to become Central Carolina Bank and Trust. |
27326329_1_4 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. "Father of Rural Credit Unions"
In 1913, Hill traveled to Europe in an effort to study rural credit systems that had sprung up there in response to widespread poverty. He returned to the United States intent on implementing a similar system at home. North Carolina of that time was more than 80% rural, and the economy farm-based, with a majority of residents living in poverty. He addressed farmers' organizations and Congressional committees on the subject. Hill remarked that, "Credit union membership is a certificate of character and a badge of honor. Let a person stay in the credit union for ten years and it changes his whole philosophy of life—it is a modern miracle." Soon after passage of the North Carolina Credit Union Act on March 6, 1915, North Carolina's first credit union opened in 1916, in the southern Durham County community of Lowe's Grove. Twenty farmers in the Durham County community pooled $101.75, and the credit union movement was born. E. C. Branson, in a sketch published in 1918, called Hill the "Father of Rural Credit in North Carolina." |
27326329_1_5 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. State politics
John Sprunt Hill served on the North Carolina Highway Commission from its inception in 1921 through 1931, helping to create the largest state maintained highway network in the United States. In 1932, he successfully ran for a seat in the North Carolina Senate, serving Durham County as the representative of the 16th State Senate District from 1933 to 1938. |
27326329_2_0 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Recreation
A golf enthusiast, Hill began building what became the Hillandale Country Club in Durham in 1909. Hill opened the course the golf course, designed by Donald Ross, who drafted the first 9 holes in 1909 and Perry Maxwell, who drafted the back 9 in 1915, to public use in 1934, finalizing the transaction by 1939 by donation to the Durham Foundation. |
27326329_2_1 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Philanthropy
He gave the city the land for Hillside Park. He acquired the golf course at Forest Hills and donated it to the city for a park in 1930. He donated a large tract of land on the East side of town to the city in 1932 for parkland, which the city divided up into a park for African-Americans (East End) and for whites (Long Meadow.) He donated land for a park at Branch Pl and Proctor, no longer extant. In 1933, he donated $20,000 to the city to purchase Durham Athletic Park and funded the reconstruction of the stadium after it burned down in 1939. |
27326329_2_2 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Durham
In 1917, John Sprunt Hill, George W. Watts, James B. Duke and Benjamin N. Duke donated a sum of $8,500 to purchase the old Stokes homesite on Fayetteville Street, in order to relocate and expand Lincoln Hospital, Durham's primary hospital for African-Americans in the days of segregation. |
27326329_2_3 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Philanthropy
In 1930, John Sprunt Hill offered the John O'Daniel Hosiery Mills building for a Farmer's Exchange—a farmers' cooperative which grew to 900 members by 1935. The decline in tobacco sales during the late-1920s, due to blight, spurred the need for farmers to market other farm products. The JOD Hosiery Mill became Durham's first Farmers' Market—what was referred to as a "curb market" at the time—where the farmers would sell some of their produce directly. These early curb markets were evidently operated exclusively by women—offering "an extra source of income through the sale of poultry, eggs, baked and pickled goods, and fresh flowers and vegetables in season." |
27326329_2_4 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Philanthropy
Upon his death, in 1961, John Sprunt Hill donated his Morehead Hill Spanish Colonial Revival mansion, designed by Kendall and Taylor of Boston and built in 1912, to a foundation created in memory of his wife, who died on March 26, 1940. The Annie Watts Hill Foundation was created to support non-sectarian, non-political female organizations. As of 2008, the Junior League of Durham and Orange Counties makes its home here, although it is open to any group meeting the aforementioned criteria. The John Sprunt Hill House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. His Wakefield Dairy Complex near Wake Forest was listed in 2003. |

John Sprunt Hill's longest-running philanthropic interest was his love of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. A generous donor from the time of his graduation in 1889 until his death, Hill was named a trustee of the University of North Carolina in 1904 and remained a trustee for the rest of his life. John Sprunt Hill was selected to give the commencement address to the graduating class of 1903. |
27326329_2_6 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Philanthropy
Hill served as chair of the building committee during the 1920s, when the university received its first major state appropriation for new construction since the American Civil War. He oversaw the location and building of Manning and Carroll halls and the halls that flank them, as well as Wilson Library and Memorial Auditorium, effectively creating the quad at Polk Place. |
27326329_2_7 | 27326329 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%20Sprunt%20Hill | John Sprunt Hill | John Sprunt Hill. Philanthropy
In 1930, with the completion of Wilson as UNC's new library, the Hills donated most of the funds needed to renovate Carnegie Library, for use as the new home for the music department, itself only a decade old. The couple stipulated that the building, renamed Hill hall, could only be used for music, stipulating frequent concerts and recitals. |

In 1920, the Hills began building the Carolina Inn, which was completed next to the UNC campus in 1924 in order "to provide for the special wants and comforts of the University alumni... and University visitors." In 1935, they donated the hotel to the University, stipulating that the profits from the Inn would support what would later become the North Carolina Collection in UNC's Wilson Library. |

Émilie Tavernier Gamelin, SP, (19 February 1800 – 23 September 1851) was a Canadian social worker and Roman Catholic religious sister. She is best known as the founder of the Sisters of Providence of Montreal. In 2001 she was beatified by Pope John Paul II. |
27326378_0_1 | 27326378 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89milie%20Gamelin | Émilie Gamelin | Émilie Gamelin. Early life
She was born Marie-Émilie-Eugène Tavernier (also known as Amélie) on 19 February 1800 in Montreal, the youngest of the 15 children of Antoine Tavernier and Marie-Josephe Maurice. Nine of her siblings died before reaching adulthood. Gamelin's mother died in 1804 when Gamelin was aged 4 and her father died in 1814 when Gamelin was aged 14. Consequently, Gamelin was raised by her aunt Marie-Anne Tavernier and her husband Joseph Perrault, to whose care Gamelin's mother had entrusted Émilie prior to her death. Gamelin shared the Perrault household with her aunt and uncle and their four children. |

From 1814 to 1815, Gamelin boarded at the school run by the Sisters of the Congregation of Notre Dame, before returning to the Perrault household. In 1818 Gamelin moved to the house of her brother François, whose wife had recently died, to care for him. When she returned to the Perrault household in 1819, her aunt, now old and infirm, put Émilie under the care of her daughter Agathe (born 1787), who became a third mother to her. |

At the age of 19, while caring for her aunt, Gamelin spent time as a debutante in Montreal fashionable society and was frequently seen at the social events of the city. Between 1820 and 1822 Gamelin spent two stretches residing with one of her cousins, Julie Perrault, in Quebec city, ending in 1822 when Gamelin's aunt, Marie-Anne, died, resulting in Gamelin and her cousin Agathe Perrault moving together into a house in Montreal West. In a letter to Agathe dated 18 June 1822, Gamelin wrote that she felt "a strong vocation [...] for the convent. [...] I renounce for ever the young dandies and also the [vanities of this] world; I shall become a religious some time in the autumn." |
27326378_0_4 | 27326378 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89milie%20Gamelin | Émilie Gamelin | Émilie Gamelin.
Despite her interest in consecrated life, on 4 June 1823 Marie-Émilie married Jean-Baptiste Gamelin, a fifty-year-old bachelor of Montreal who made a living dealing in apples. The marriage lasted four years ending with Jean-Baptiste's death on 1 October 1827. Gamelin had three children by the marriage: two died shortly after birth and the third died within a year of her husband. |
